Opening segment
AJ is in the ring with Tamina. Both are wearing sweatshirts, hands in pocket. AJ is holding the mic in her left hand.
AJ: There is a name that we can't say right now around here. There is a name that The Authority wish you all would forget.
She pauses, waiting for the crowd to start a CM Punk chant.
AJ: That's the one. You see, I'm not allowed to say that name, despite that man being a very good friend of mine. But you see, that man, that man whose name I cannot say, he isn't just a good friend of mine--he's a good friend to all of the wrestlers in the back who have hit the glass ceiling, those who have been held down because they didn't suck up to the right people.
AJ makes the "Yes!" gesture with her left hand.
AJ: Yes! Yes! Yes! Even Daniel Bryan has that unspeakable name to thank for helping down those barriers. You see, before Daniel Bryan, Punk....
AJ covers her mouth.
AJ: Oops, guess I slipped. Before Daniel Bryan, that unspeakable man had the same powers that be look at him and dismiss him as nothing more than an independent wrestler who would do no more than enhance the bulbous monstrosities who normally run roughshod over this industry. When he left, he warned me that I would probably face some fallout from our friendship, from our relationship. But last night, I was robbed of something I hold very dear to my heart, something I fought for, that I earned. If anyone thinks The Authority wasn't behind Nikki Bella stealing my championship, THEY'RE the delusional ones.
AJ shakes her head looking down at the ground.
AJ: I've read the stories, calling that unspeakable man a coward for leaving, saying he wasn't a man for not honoring his commitments. But see, he was fighting for something larger. He wasn't fighting just for himself, he was fighting for the guys in the back. He was fighting for you.
AJ points at the crowd.
AJ: No, he wasn't a coward. If anything, it was the bravest act I've ever seen. Walking away from guaranteed money, walking away from a Wrestlemania paycheck. After last night, I wish I had the courage demonstrated by that man, but I don't.
AJ shakes her head again, looking down.
AJ: But I don't.
AJ raises her head with a smile.
AJ: But I'm going to be strong in a different way. I'm going to fight The Authority from the inside. There are several guys on our side, who want to join the revolution, who recognize that the unspeakable man may not have been our messiah, but he is our savior. (Shirts could be made of this with the wrapped hand on the front and half the phrase on that side, with the rest on the back.)
AJ removes her right hand from her sweatshirt pocket as does Tamina. Both raise them to the sky, revealing they are wrapped in CM Punk fashion.
AJ: This is the symbol of The Punk Revolution. This is the symbol of resistance. He may have left, but he is not forgotten. We will continue to fight in C.....M.......
HHH's music plays as he approaches the ring.
HHH: That's enough of your little temper tantrum about losing your title. The Authority wasn't out here interfering in your match. If you have a problem with Natalya, maybe you should go resolve that with her instead of dragging us into your little catfight.
AJ: And that's the problem right there, dismissing me, dismissing the other divas as nothing more tawdry entertainment between the "real" wrestling. But I'm not afraid of you. You already took the only thing I care about.
HHH: Oh, you should be very scared of me.
HHH backs her up into the corner, she's looking down, hair covering her face. After he's done, she pushes the hair from her eyes and reveals she is smirking.
AJ: You're the one who should be scared.
AJ ducks out of the way as Brodus Clay has entered the ring and splashes HHH in the corner. AJ, Tamina and Brodus extend their right hands to the air, showing unity through their taped fists. The monster Brodus is back.
Backstage segment.
The Wyatt Family with Daniel Bryan.
Bryan: Last night, I overcame all odds, eliminating all five of the men sent to destroy me. They had one goal--ensuring I didn't reach Wrestlemania. But nothing is going to prevent me from making it to Wrestlemania and living my dream.
Bray: Our dream, Daniel Bryan. Our dream. As we wander through the darkened forest, happening upon the lost among us, we will lead them to their salvation. Overhead, the buzzards circle, waiting for us to fall--and the weak will fall. Some will choose to aid those who falter and they will be lost as well. But the family will continue moving forward. The princess may have found her way back to the castle, but the forest still lurks outside its walls. Roots dig deep and weaken those barriers. When those walls fall, we will storm the castle.
The Wyatt Family exits leaving Daniel Bryan to watch them in a lost manner.
Backstage segment.
HHH is being interviewed. He is being bandaged.
Renee: Last night, Stephanie McMahon escaped the clutches of the Wyatt Family, but she is conspicuous by her absence tonight. Can you shed some light on her whereabouts?
HHH: It's very rare that a McMahon misses a Monday Night Raw. After the ordeal she has suffered over these last few weeks, we felt it was appropriate that she talk with a psychologist to help her make sense of everything. Once she her mind is cleared, she'll return to the show. But there are other things to handle tonight, important things. Punishment is deserved for Daniel Bryan and The Wyatt Family. Daniel Bryan will be facing off against Batista. The Wyatt Family will be facing The Shield. And then we come to this new thorn in my side which presented itself earlier tonight. AJ and associate Brodus Clay. He will be facing Kane.
Daniel Bryan vs Batista
Bryan dominates early on but Batista takes control. Orton comes out, circling the ring. Bryan is distracted which allows Batista to pick up the win.
Shield vs Wyatts
This match breaks down into a melee which causes a double disqualification. The battle rolls into the crowd, all different directions.
Brodus w/ AJ vs Kane
AJ is on commentary.
AJ: A little over a year ago, the nameless one stated a fact--that WWE made this monster Brodus dance with little kids when they should have feared him, when they should have been looking under their bed for him. While management didn't realize it, that was the slap in the face that this man needed. We've been discussing this for months now. You think it was an accident that he attacked Tensai, R Truth, Xavier Woods? No. That was the final straw. WWE was stealing something he had built, that he made. Now the monster is unleashed and there will be no caging him again.
Brodus wins cleanly, dominating the whole of the match..
After the match AJ enters with Tamina. All three raise their CM Punk inspired taped hands.
AJ: The Punk Revolution has only just begun!
