Vickie Guerrero is in her office and she tells us that we will honor the pinnacle of sports entertainment, the WWE Championship and the World Title. They symbolize the prestige of the company. We will have a special match with Alberto Del Rio facing John Cena and she thanks the McMahons for allowing it.
We are in Sioux City, Iowa and your announcers are John ‘Shouldn’t David Otunga be here’ Layfield, Michael ‘Why aren’t we in Canada for Canada Day’ Cole, and Jerry ‘If you wrestle, he will come’ Lawler.
Daniel Bryan makes his way to the ring and there is a ladder in the ring and the briefcase hangs above the ring. That must mean that we are approaching Money in the Bank.
Daniel says that last week, the burning question on everyone’s mind was finally answered. Is Daniel Bryan the weak link? Daniel says that after making Randy Orton tap out, the answer is NO.
There is a new question. Can Daniel Bryan ride this wave into the Money in the Bank Ladder Match and earn the contract? If only there were a simple three letter word . . . YES.
Daniel says that he wants to be WWE Champion. He wants to follow in the footsteps of the greats, Bruno Sammartino, Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, The Rock, Daniel Bryan. Two years ago, he won a Money in the Bank match and he cashed in to be the World Champion. It has been far too long. Just because this match is filled with All-Stars, it does not mean that history cannot repeat itself. Daniel says that he will be WWE Champion.
Sheamus interrupts the celebration and he says that people want to be remembered of how Daniel’s title reign ended. Daniel says that nobody wants to hear it and Sheamus reminds us that he won in 18 seconds.
Sheamus says that it has been far too long since he was champion.
Daniel wonders if he calls 1-800-FELLA if Sheamus would Brogue Kick himself.
Sheamus says that he thought trolls were supposed to be grumpy.
Randy Orton comes out, but without any music. He says that people have been arguing about how long it has been since people have been champion and Randy says that he has not been champion for two years. He is not hungry, he is starving and a starving man takes what he needs. He needs the WWE Title. After he wins the contract, he will not hesitate to cash in on the first unsuspecting champion.
Daniel says that we know what he is capable of, but we also know that he made Randy tap out.
Randy lets that one slide but he tells Dan if he disrespects him again, he will drop him where he stands. He is desperate so that means that no one is safe.
Kane has to join the party because he is in the match. Kane agrees with Randy that no one is safe, especially him. No one in the history of WWE has been more ruthless than him, especially when the WWE Championship is involved. He has no problem doing unspeakable acts against his opponents, even his so called friends.
Daniel says that Kane is still angry about what happened on Smackdown, but Kane was unable to beat Randy.
Kane says that he is looking forward to the match at the pay per view because it is every man for themselves. No friends, no partners, only victims.
Christian comes out and he tells them to hold off on their championship celebrations. There is one man who has had more success in ladder matches in the WWE and that is him. He has been gone for a while. Christian says that he is looking for one more match and that will be for the WWE Championship. He might not be the biggest guy in this match. He might not be the strongest guy in this match. He might not be the scariest guy in this match. He might not be the hairiest guy in this match. However, he is the best.
CM Punk comes out and he says that he was not going to do the predictable thing like everyone else and then he heard the magical word . . . best. He respects the hell out of Christian for what he has accomplished in his career. He is the best at the Money in the Bank match. He is the only person who has won it twice. He will become the only person to win it three times.
Punk says that he doesn’t care if they misunderstand him. Nobody can touch him in this ring. He knows how formidable the competition is. Rob Van Dam, is probably watching this somewhere. Rob is fearless and he will do whatever it takes to climb the ladder and grab the briefcase.
Sheamus is one of the toughest SOBs he has been in a match with.
Daniel interrupts and he tells Punk to shut up or he will make him tap out faster than Randy Orton did last week.
Kane protects Daniel from Orton and then Bryan argues with Kane and Orton with an RKO to Kane. Christian leaves the ring and goes to the apron. Punk leaves and then Sheamus follows.

He has been World’s Strongest man since he entered the WWE 17 years ago.
He earned the respect of every Superstar he worked with, but there was jealousy, politics, and there was a lot of backstabbing. There are a lot of ‘accidental’ injuries. All of these years, he has earned it. ‘They’ never gave him a legitimate opportunity to be the WWE Champion. The thousands of miles he traveled, the nights he spent away from his family, the years that he pretended to like the boys.
All the years of doing the right thing for the business, that got him nowhere. He deserves to be the WWE Champion. After the years that he has given to this organization and to the people, he has earned the right to be the WWE Champion. Like he said before, they hang on every word he says because the people are puppets.
At Money in the Bank, now that he finally has his chance, nobody is going to keep him down any more. He will do the right thing. He will do the right thing for him. After he beats John Cena, nobody will be able to deny him. Everyone will say that Mark Henry earned the WWE Championship.

He has been World’s Strongest man since he entered the WWE 17 years ago.
He earned the respect of every Superstar he worked with, but there was jealousy, politics, and there was a lot of backstabbing. There are a lot of ‘accidental’ injuries. All of these years, he has earned it. ‘They’ never gave him a legitimate opportunity to be the WWE Champion. The thousands of miles he traveled, the nights he spent away from his family, the years that he pretended to like the boys.
All the years of doing the right thing for the business, that got him nowhere. He deserves to be the WWE Champion. After the years that he has given to this organization and to the people, he has earned the right to be the WWE Champion. Like he said before, they hang on every word he says because the people are puppets.
At Money in the Bank, now that he finally has his chance, nobody is going to keep him down any more. He will do the right thing. He will do the right thing for him. After he beats John Cena, nobody will be able to deny him. Everyone will say that Mark Henry earned the WWE Championship.
