Tonight we start with a look back at Kane’s comments last week to the Undertaker.
We are live on tape from Baltimore, Maryland and your announcers are Todd ‘Quote the Raven, Nevermore’ and Matt ‘John Waters’ Striker.
Matt and Todd wonder what condition Undertaker will be in tonight for his match against CM Punk.
Undertaker is already in the ring and he says that his brother Kane has always been a disturbed freak of nature. There were so many times that he had to protect Kane, not just from others but from himself. Taker says that he will have no regrets when he does what he has to do at Night of Champions. Kane attacked his own flesh and blood like a coward. Kane left him beaten, battered, and unconscious. Kane has given himself a false sense of confidence. He thinks that he has the tide of momentum on his side. Kane thinks that he has the power of the darkness. Taker says that power is his and he is still in control. Taker says that at Night of Champions, he will Kane some memories. They won’t be pleasant. Kane will remember the night that his older, wiser brother stopped his reign of terror. He will always remember his more evil, dominant brother took back his World Heavyweight Title. That brings him to why he is here.
He has something to say to Kane. When the time comes and they finally come face to face, he will know that they will open the gates of hell and unleash everything that they have on each other. He says that he can’t wait. He can’t wait for that night, but a fight of that magnitude, there are no rules that can contain them. There are no rules that will be able to stop them. Taker tells Kane that when they fight, and it will be a fight, it must be No Holds Barred. Taker wants to know what his little brother has to say. He wants to know if Kane is in and if he is confident.
We don’t hear from Kane, but we do hear from CM Punk who comes out to applaud Taker’s comments. Punk wants everyone to show the legend all of the adulation he deserves. The crowd complies and gives Taker a standing ovation. Punk says that if you are creature of the night or a fan of the phenom, he wants them to bask in what Taker is providing. Punk says that this is the dead man’s moment and he earned it. Punk says that they both know that these people will never see the Undertaker again. Punk says that he enjoys a good sibling rivalry. Punk says that he has been enjoying this saga. There is nothing that brings a smile to his face than seeing Taker on his own downward spiral. Punk says that he doesn’t see anything phenomenal in the ring. He sees a beat up, broken down man who has had one too many fights. He sees a man who has finally bitten off more than he can chew. He finally sees a man who is more delusional than the selfish, drunken, worthless people in the audience.
Taker says that when he sees CM Punk, he sees his next victim.
Punk says that is not the case. He says that Taker’s threats don’t have the panache they used to have. It is because there is doubt in his voice. Punk says that when he beats Taker tonight, he will be sending a message. He will be sending a message to his opponent at Night of Champions, the Big Show. He will be sending a message to the dead man. That message is simple. The power of the WWE Universe and the seven foot five hundred pound giant, and the power of the dark side cannot compare to the power of straight edge.
Taker tells Punk to come down and try. The results will be the same as always because Punk will fail.
Punk says that he seems to remember when Taker was one hundred percent, he made Taker tap out. He asks Taker what he thinks he will do in Taker’s weakened position.
Taker says that he knows what is going to happen. Punk is going to REST . . . IN . . . PEACE.
