This is AJ's attempt at trying to humiliate me. Some people respect leadership and authority like Tamina Snuka. For weeks, AJ has made a fool of herself, John Cena and all of you with her white lies. AJ accuses me of have an affair? Tonight, doubts will be laid to rest because I have witnesses. My first is Whitney Smith. Ms. Smith is a waitress at a restaurant in Sacramento, California.

Sheamus is up next! After the break we get a clip of Ryback calling out CM Punk and the NXT cronies who jumped him last night.

Sheamus storms to the ring with a steel chair! Sheamus: "Now before I knock the bejeesus out of my opponent tonight, there's something I need to get off my chest. When this started, there were two warriors battling for the World Heavyweight Championship. Even though I lost at Hell in a Cell, it was a fight! But then Big Show made it personal. Big Show attacked me from behind and knocked out my friend William Regal. Then at Survivor Series he pulled a referee in the way of my Brogue Kick preventing me from regaining my World Heavyweight Championship. No matter what we been through he always seems to run away. When I came out after Hell in a Cell, I said I still had a smile on my face. Well I'm not smiling anymore. Well Big Show, why don't you get your giant arse out here so we can settle this once and for all?!" Big Show walks out gingerly selling the numerous chair shots he received last night. Big Show: "We have nothing to settle. At Hell in a Cell, I told you I was gonna knock you out and take the World Heavyweight Championship. YOU LISTEN TO ME WHEN I TALK! I AM THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! YOU HAD YOUR TIME TO TALK AND YOU LISTEN TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY! LAST NIGHT, YOU BEAT ME HALF TO DEATH WITH THAT CHAIR." Sheamus: "You're damn right I did!" Show: "You're not the World Heavyweight Champion anymore! You're just like your ancestors. You're barbaric!" Sheamus: "Why don't you come down and I'll show you just how barbaric I can be?!" Damien Sandow comes out and the ref tells Sheamus to put the chair down, same as Sandow. Sheamus obliges and Sandow steps in the ring.

* Sheamus vs. Damien Sandow

AJ tells her to leave her alone as she stops in front of the locker room. She boldly storms in and approaches Ziggler in anger.

John Cena pulls her off and Ziggler attacks him. They crash through the stalls and Ziggler gets pulled off. Ziggler shows up on the attack again and gets pulled off once more.

Heyman goes on to hype Punk some more before he introduces the "reigning and defending WWE Champion, the Best in the World" CM Punk. The champ comes out and adores himself and hugs Heyman as he gets in the ring. Heyman is playing up the sentimental role. Punk: "Shawn Michaels couldn't do it. Triple H couldn't do it. Bret Hart could not do it. The Undertaker could not do it. And Dwayne, The Rock, couldn't do it. 365 days as WWE Champion, one calender year!" We get a video montage highlighting CM Punk's reign as champion ever since he won the title back at Survivor Series 2011 and ends with "365 Days and Counting."
