John Cena says that he is incapable of saying the words 'I QUIT' I don't understand, Josh... how can he know... how can he be sure that he is incapable of saying those words. He can't know. You want to know how I'm going to make John Cena feel tonight? Do you want to know what it is like to have every bone in your body feel as if it will shatter at any moment? To go in and out of consciousness? To be beaten and assaulted until you have the power to make it all go away by uttering one simple sentence. Is that what you want to know? IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW? Well, then I suggest you watch my match tonight, because John Cena says one thing, but tonight I'm going to make him say something else... I'm going to force him to say the words 'I QUIT!'"

Before we get anymore in, Dolph Ziggler, the #1 Contender to the current Intercontinental Champion, interrupts with his music, and the challenger rolls down to the ring to introduce himself, sticking out his hand.

I mean, if you're here, who's at home watching reruns of the Golden Girls? Wait, was Wilford Brimley unable to make it tonight? Does the retirement home know you snuck out? Pat, I'm just having some fun. In fact, until you came down to the ring tonight I thought you were dead. but now that I see you in person, you look like a million bucks. Even your hairpiece looks real! I mean, c'mon, how can we be wasting valuable pay-per-view time on some fossil that nobody cares about or even remembers? Awww... I'm just playing around, Pat."

Fans now start a VERY verbal "SHUT THE FUCK UP! *clap-clap clap-clap-clap*"

Ziggler stalks around the ring, but then bails as Intercontinental Champion John Morrison runs down, chases Ziggler off, then checks on Patterson.

So, wow... what in the fuck? We cancel the Morrison vs. Ziggler match because WWE is afraid to kill the heat for either guy, and we replace it with Dolph Ziggler ripping no-buys zingers on a Legend nobody cares about? WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA! Ziggler is right, why did we waste valuable PPV time on this??

Cena reaches down and snatches the key off of Orton's neck and frees himself, then handcuffs himself to Orton! Orton is struggling to get away, Cena explodes on Orton, punches and kicks, throws him into the table, then rolls him back in the ring, beats him down like a redheaded stepchild! Cena slams Orton to the mat and mounts him for punches, knees him in the back, rolls him over and delivers more knees! Cena picks up Orton for the Attitude Adjustment, but Orton wiggles out and counters with the RKO!

Orton sits up, looks around for the key, finds it in the corner... he drags Cena's body with him, as best as he can, over to the corner to get the key. Cena sits up and uses his strength to block it, Orton stretching... dueling "Let's go Ce-Na!" / "Let's go Or-ton!" chants. Orton reaches over to get the key, Cena leaps over and slaps on the STF! Orton doesn't even try to fight, he shouts, "OKAY OKAY I QUIT I QUIT!"

WINNER and NEW WWE CHAMPION, John Cena! We replay the highlights as the men are uncuffed. Orton walks up the ramp. Cena picks up the belt, grabs a mic and shouts, "I! DID! NOT! QUIT!" The WWE Spinner Belt is now back on the champion who it was made for!

WWE World Heavyweight Championship: champion C.M. Punk vs. The Undertaker

It's 10:30 PM, 30 minutes left in the PPV. We're showing recaps of CM Punk winning the title and everything leading up to this match. That'll kill 5 minutes. Then we got 5 minutes for each man's introduction, so that kills another 10 minutes. Which leaves less than 15 minutes for the main event. I got a feeling that this will be quick, Punk will retain, and there's going to be a screwjob. OK, this only took 10 minutes to set up... a little better. Here we go!

Bell rings, and Punk immediately rolls out of the ring, trying to out-psych Undertaker. Punk takes his time stepping back into the ring, Undertaker tries to corner Punk, Punk ducks out of the way, reverses Undertaker and then beats the Deadman down in the corner. Punk breaks, Undertaker charges out, grabs Punk by the throat, and throws him over the top rope and out to the ring! Punk rolls back in the ring as Undertaker rolls out, attacks Undertaker on the way into the ring. Punk whips Undertaker off the ropes, Undertaker reverses, hits a clothesline, Punk cowers off to the corner. Undertaker headbutts, punches, throws Punk into another corner and beats him down. Undertaker pulls Punk up in the corner, takes his time to measure out a punch to the ribs, a kick to the midsection, and a boot to the head to take him back down to the mat. Undertaker throws Punk through the ropes to the outside, then steps down. Punk counters with a kick to the head and a punch, Undertaker counters with a big right that puts Punk flat on his back. Fans with an appreciative "UN-DER-TA-KER! *clap-clap clap-clap-clap*" chant.

Undertaker and Punk trade big punches around the outside of the ring, Undertaker measures up a knee to the head, followed by a kick to the head as Punk goes to his knees, then falls to his back. Undertaker whips Punk into the ringside barrier back-first. Undertaker charges with a boot to the head, Punk moves out of the way, Undertaker hangs himself up on the top of the barrier. Punk capitalizes with a running knee right into Undertaker's head, then delivers more knees to the head using the Muay-Thai clench. Punk grabs a chair and sends it right into Undertaker's midsection, then a chair shot to the head. Undertaker stands right back up and rolls into the ring as Punk holds the chair over his head and taunts the fans.

Punk steps back into the ring, charges Undertaker and hits the high knee to the face. Punk tries to follow up with the bulldog, Undertaker shoves him into the opposite corner. Undertaker grabs an arm, winds it up, delivers a few shoulder blocks, then re-winds the arm a few more times and delivers the shoulder block again. Undertaker tries to walk the ropes with the arm, Punk knocks Undertaker onto the top turnbuckle. Punk tries to turn it into a Superplex, Undertaker knocks him off, but Punk immediately counters with an Enziguri to the head to knock Undertaker back down. Punk delivers a few more punches, then sets up and executes the Superplex. Both men take their time getting up for this. Punk attacks with kicks to the head and leg, Undertaker counters with a right. Punk with more kicks, Undertaker with rights, They resort to trading punches, never a good idea with the Undertaker because he always wins!

Undertaker whips Punk into a corner, headbutts him, into the opposite corner, clothesline, back again into the corner, Undertaker catches Punk out of the corner, picks him up and delivers him face-first into the corner with the Snake Eyes! Undertaker catches him off that rebound with a boot to the face and a legdrop! Undertaker looking to finish with the Chokeslam, but Punk is able to counter with a Roundhouse Kick to the head! Punk leans down to pick up Undertaker, and JUST THAT QUIT Undertaker grabs his head and pulls him into the Hell's Gate gogoplata submission, and Punk taps right out!

WINNER and NEW WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, THE UNDERTAKER! This draws out WWE SmackDown General Manager Theodore R. Long, who announces that the Undertaker's submission, the Hell's Gate, was banned by Vickie Guerrero last year, and that has not changed. He's ordering a restart to the match! Punk tries to attack Undertaker from behind, Undertaker sets him up for the Last Ride, Punk wiggles out. Punk knocks Undertaker down, slaps on the Anaconda Vice, and the referee calls for the bell.

WINNER and STILL WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, CM PUNK! And we revisit the Montreal Screwjob, because Punk barely had the Anaconda Vice applied before the referee called for the bell. Punk and the referee immediately bail, grab the belt, and rush back up the stage with Teddy Long.

*sigh* BULLSHIT! It was a bad idea the FIRST TIME when they were trying to stop Bret Hart from potentially taking the belt to WCW. It's an even WORSE idea to play on this and try to turn it into a storyline! This is HORRIBLE. HORRIBLE BOOKING! What a way to make CM Punk look like a pussy. This man is legitimately tough, PLAY ON IT! There are so many other ways they could have ended this match. Then again, it was a bad idea to set this match up to begin with. So this is the dog shit that we end up with.
