CM Punk vs. Big Show

Punk, who came out alone, got a nice reaction since they were in his hometown in Chicago. Matt Striker said Punk's childhood friends Scott and Chris were in attendance. That has to be Scott "Colt" Cabana and Chris "Ace Steele" Guy. Punk took the mic and said that he loves Chicago. He said he loves the parks, the museums, the history and Navy Pier, but what he hates are the inhabitants of the city. He blamed everyone in the building for ruining the city, calling them lazy Teamsters and corrupt politicians. He crapped on the Chicago White Sox and then said the out of work dads and boozy mothers disgust them. He said that the entire city should be burned to the ground for the second time so he can build a straightedge utopia. Punk turned his attention to Big Show.
