It is time for more Conspiracy Theories about AJ Lee and John Cena. Vickie walks to the ring with two people.
Vickie wants to set the record straight. She would not lay a hand on a WWE Superstar. This does not give AJ a reason to try to humiliate her. Some people respect authority like Tamina Snuka.
AJ and John Cena have the audacity to accuse her of falsifying evidence of their affair. Vickie has eyewitnesses.
The first eyewitness is Whitney Smith. She is a waitress at a hotel in Sacramento. This was where AJ and John Cena had their ‘business dinner’. Vickie has Ms. Smith tell her story.
She says that they wanted a private table in the corner of the restaurant. Through the whole meal they were being very touchy-feely and they were looking into each other’s eyes. It looked like more than business.
The next eyewitness is Doug Brady. He is a parking attendant. He saw John Cena and AJ stay in a parked vehicle for about an hour. He says that he is not a snooping person. They were parked next to a family and the father complained to him about what he saw.
AJ makes her way to the ring. She says that she is sick and tired of the doctored videos and tampered voice mails to create this scandal. AJ tells Vickie if she wants to fire her so bad, fire her. If not, she tells Vickie to shut the hell up.
Vickie says that AJ lies every week. Vickie says that she will take it from here. Mr. Brady was taking photos of what was going on in the car.
Vickie tells everyone offended by nudity they should cover their children’s eyes.
