We are back and on Sunday, CM Punk will be back . . . in between games 2 and 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Damien Sandow has something to say before his match and he demands SILENCE. As he looks out at everyone, he cannot help but become physically ill. For the last year, all he has wanted to do is enlighten the unwashed masses. That is everyone else. He has realized that he has set the bar far too high so from here on, he will speak more slowly and he will use words that are more simple so that everyone can understand.

He says that he pledges to get his message across using physical means. This starts tonight and continues to the Payback Kick Off when he decimates . . . that means beat up very badly . . . their hero, Sheamus. You may not like this, but you will learn from it.
