CM Punk, Paul Heyman, and the urn make their way to the ring. Paul tosses the urn to Punk and the pass is complete.
Punk says that they say that the Undertaker’s undefeated streak will never be beaten. This dead man is unstoppable on the grandest stage of them all. They say in hush tones that the urn feeds Undertaker power and is a representation of his spirit. They have a lot of opinions. They say a lot of stupid things . . . don’t THEY.
Who are THEY? He asks Paul Heyman and then Paul Bearer. Do they know what they are talking about? They don’t because everyone has opinions and the only opinion that matters is his. They are irrelevant and he is the only one who matters.
Last year the Undertaker went 20-0. Twenty times he has dispatched his opponent. It should have ended last year with Undertaker, Triple H, and Shawn Michaels skipping into the sunset. Punk says that Undertaker ruined it all and came onto his show and pointed at his sign. Because of his actions and storybook career at Wrestlemania, it is being rewritten by a man who is not afraid of the dark or of the undefeated streak. It is being rewritten by the best in the world.
Punk says that it is the Undertaker’s fault. Punk says that he did not take the urn to disrespect Paul Bearer. He took it because of what it means to Undertaker. It does not matter to him. Punk tosses the urn to the mat. The streak is the Undertaker’s. Punk will break it. Punk has something that the Undertaker does want. Taker is at a psychological disadvantage.
Taker coming back against any other man would have been great. He would have gone 21-0. He could have gone 30 or 50 and 0. There is nobody in the world who is better than him. There is nobody in the world smarter than him. There is nobody in the world who will beat him at Wrestlemania. Punk says that he is the 1 in 20-1.
Punk says that he is waiting for the lights to go out and the chill to enter the arena. He is waiting for the magic words ‘Rest in Peace’. Rest is something he has never been afforded and he has never been at peace. Punk says that the streak will rest in peace.
There is a gong and the lights go out.
The lights go back on and the Undertaker is in the ring and he punches Punk. Taker with a forearm to the head and Paul picks up the fumble and runs like Keith Byers to the end zone.
