We are back with a look back at the 2006 Royal Rumble when Rey Mysterio broke the record of some guy who is not mentioned in the record books any more for longevity in the Rumble match. Rey went on to point at the sign later that night and then won the title at Wrestlemania.

CM Punk comes to the ring with Luke Gallows and it is time for a new member of the Straight Edge Society to be determined. We see footage from last week when CM Punk and Luke Gallows became the number one contenders for the Unified Tag Titles.

Punk and Gallows are on the stage by the entrance and he says that there is a reason why they are the number one contenders for the Unified Tag Titles. He says that there is a reason why they will bring honor and respect to restore the dignity of the Unified Tag Titles when they defeat the morally corrupt Unified Champions Degeneration X next week on Smackdown. Punk says that they are straight edge and that will propel him past 29 other Superstars in the Royal Rumble to become the first straight edge Royal Rumble match winner. He says that when you are straight edge, you are a winner, unlike the losers in the WWE Universe. Punk says that he sees everyone for what they are. He calls them cowards. He says that they hide behind bottles of pills, bottles of beer, and cartons of cigarettes. Punk says that he sees a sea of depravity. He sees parents drinking and smoking in front of their children, guaranteeing another generation of people who will be addicted. Punk says that he sees a majority begging and pleading for a savior to take them by the hand and bring them to the promised land. He says that it used to make him sick, but now it makes him smile because he knows that he is better than everyone. He says that he knows that he can wash away all of their problems and only he can save everyone if they pledge allegiance to the Straight Edge Society. Punk wants to know who will be the brave and fortunate one who will be saved tonight.

There is a woman in the crowd who runs into the ringside area and she gets a bit too close to Punk and he wants security to take her away. Punk thinks about it as she screams that she needs him. Punk decides that this woman needs Punk and he will take all responsibility for what happens. Luke brings her to the ring and to Punk.

Punk says that he can look into her eyes and he can see a lifetime of pain and suffering and he knows that he can help her. Punk asks her what her name is and she tells him that her name is Serena. Punk asks Serena an important question. He wants to know if she is an addict. She says that she is an addict. She says that she really wants to change. Punk tells her to stay calm and he knows that Serena is just like everyone else waiting like a zombie at the pharmacy waiting for the next pill. He says that he knows that she counts down the time at work until she can get that first sip of alcohol at the end of the day. Serena says that she needs her pills. Punk says that he is here to let her know that it is okay. He tells Serena that she is among friends. She was around enablers who did not care about her. Punk says that he cares about her despite being around enablers who don’t care about her or themselves. Punk says that they have no self respect and no pride. Punk says that he can see that Serena has taken steps towards sobriety but for every step she takes, she is pushed back three more. He says that it takes more to adopt the straight edge way. He asks Serena if she is ready to pledge allegiance to Punk and the Straight Edge Society. Serena says that she is ready.

Punk has Serena sit in the Straight Edge Chair to take the straight edge pledge. He wants her to reach for the sky before taking the pledge to accept straight edge into her life. She accepts CM Punk as her savior. Punk tells Serena that she will never know how much she means to him. He tells Serena that she will never have to wonder who her friends are. Punk asks Serena if she is willing to show her devotion through actions. It is time for the Straight Edge Clippers and we go to commercial.

We are back and Punk is about to drop some hair onto the canvas as he shaves Serena’s head until she is bald. Punk embraces his newest follower and then he says that he wants the sheep to know that it can happen to them just like it happened to Serena. Punk says that there is one more person who is better than the entire WWE Universe and it is the newest member of the Straight Edge Society, Serena.

We go to commercial.

Although he admires Rey’s gallantry in seeking out the World Title, he is digging his own grave.

At the Royal Rumble, Rey will rest . . . in . . . peace.
