We are in Chicago, Illinois and your announcers are John ‘Bradshaw’ Layfield, Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler, and Michael Cole.
Triple H, the COO of WWE, and Stephanie McMahon, one of the Principal Owners of WWE, make their way to the ring.
Stephanie asks why these people cheer for quitters (referring to the CM Punk) and she says that they can relate because they are quitters. They would rather quit and fail rather than dig in and fight for what you believe in. Things get tough at work, you quit your job. You have a fight with your wife, you quit your family.
Or you can steal, just like Dean Ambrose did with Seth Rollins’ Money in the Bank briefcase. It does not matter because the contract is still Seth’s. Stephanie says that Dean’s actions will not be tolerated.
Hunter says the briefcase is a symbol. It is a symbol that represents this business. He says that he will not let anybody disrespect this business.
Paul Heyman interrupts and he makes his way to the stage. He apologizes for the interruption and he points out that he is the advocate for the WWE World Champion . . . BROCK LESNAR. Paul says that it is ironic that Hunter said ‘disrespected’ because his client feels disrespected. He feels disrespected that John Cena was a moment away from becoming the WWE Champion and disrespected by the fact that Hunter’s boy Seth Rollins not only got in the way of what would have been a successful title defense. He also curb stomped his client and attempted to cash in the Money in the Bank contract.
That is why his client BROCK LESNAR has instructed him to come here to Chicago . . . of all places, and find out first hand if his client has a problem that he needs to deal with involving Seth Rollins, or if his client has a problem that he has to deal with . . .
Stephanie interrupts and points out that Paul is a shrewd businessman and she tells him to choose his words carefully. If you are threatening . . .
Seth Rollins’ music plays and he makes his way to the ring.
Seth wants to get things straight. No one in the Authority told him to run down and try to cash in his Money in the Bank contract. He did it on his own. No one suggested that he curb stomp Brock Lesnar’s face into the mat. He is disappointed in Paul because he thought Paul would respect and understand his decision. He is trying to establish a career the same way Paul did . . . on opportunity.
Seth says that he was trying to make the most of his opportunity. He says that he thinks he speaks for everyone in saying that no one wants John Cena to win the World Title again. Because of the man he is, he wanted to become champion by beating the best. The best is his client, Brock Lesnar.
Brock should be honored and not insulted by what he did at Night of Champions. Seth says, from the bottom of his heart, that he is truly sorry. He is sorry. He shakes Paul’s hands.
Paul says that what Seth did took a lot of chutzpah. If he tries it again, Seth won’t be dealing with him, he will be dealing with Brock Lesnar.
Hunter stops Paul from leaving the ring and he says that he enjoyed his conversation and he tells Paul to have a nice night.
Seth says that now that this is out of the way, he appreciates them coming out to chastise Dean Ambrose on his behalf. Dean is the furthest thing from normal. Dean thinks that this is funny and he is probably laughing. Seth says that it isn’t funny and it never was funny. Seth tells Dean that he has his personal items in his possession.
If Dean does not come down here right now, what he did with the cinder blocks will be nothing compared to what he will do.
Dean appears on the TitanTron and he says that he wants to sew his eyes shut having to look at Seth and the Authority. Seth used to be a man, but now that he is corporate mommy and daddy are fighting for him, if he wants the briefcase back . . . come and get it.
As Seth, Hunter, and Stephanie walk up the ramp, John Cena’s music plays and he attacks Seth and he takes Seth into the ring but Seth escapes and he joins Hunter and Stephanie on the stage.
We go to commercial.
We are back and Stephanie says that Dean is playing mind games. Hunter tells Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble to get the briefcase back in one piece. The number of pieces of Dean Ambrose doesn’t matter. Noble asks for some sledgehammers. Hunter says that him and thinking aren’t a cohesive unit. He doesn’t care how it happens, he wants it back.
