Interview:
The New Four Horsemen interview
("The Four Horsemen" by Metallica played as The New Four Horsemen: CM Punk,
James Gibson and The Briscoe Brothers: Jay & Mark Briscoe came to the ring to
huge boos from the crowd.)
CM Punk: Another day, another Four Horseman buried by "The Nature Boy." WOO!
(The fans booed Punk.)
CM Punk: It's gotten to the point of ridiculous. This beaten up and buried
group that calls themselves "The Four Horsemen" is in worse shape than Flair's
face and believe me, that's a tough comparison. You can't send three wannabes
at the elite standing in this ring and expect them to tear us down. We are the
cream of the crop and there isn't a man alive who is going to step in the ring
with any one of us and tear us down.
("The Four Horsemen" by WCW played as The Four Horsemen (BJ Whitmer, Austin
Aries and Roderick Strong) came to the ring to cheers from the crowd.)
BJ Whitmer: CM Punk, I'm not going to come out here and make excuses. We've
gotten our asses kicked, but we're a man short and there isn't anything we can
do about that right now.
CM Punk: Whitmer, do us all a favor and shut the fuck up. Do you actually think it'd make a difference if Flair was standing alongside you three stiffs? Do you
actually think I give a damn about that phony bastard and his legacy as the
leader of the Horsemen? Do you actually think I'm going to silenced by someone
like you?!
("2001: A Space Odyssey" by The Vangelis played as the crowd exploded with
cheers. Ric Flair walked to the ring to an enormous ovation from the crowd.
Flair stepped into the ring and stood toe-to-toe with CM Punk.)
Ric Flair: CM Punk, you no-good piece of shit. You try to end my career. You
come out here spewing your bullshit about being "The Nature Boy." Punk, you
think you're a big shot! Punk! You want be a big shot, here's your chance. I'm
looking you dead in the eyes and all I see is a coward. You want to prove me
wrong, go right ahead! But I know and you know, you don't have the balls to do,
because as soon as you raise your first, I will have already kicked your ass.
I AM THE NATURE BOY! WOO! Punk, I'm back now and I'm not going to listen to you
insult me or my career anymore. CM Punk, it's time for you to be put in your
place.
(Flair tossed the microphone aside and began chopping Punk's chest until it
bled. Whitmer, Aries and Strong went at it with Gibson and The Briscoe
Brothers. Flair whipped Punk into the ropes, Punk quickly grabbed ahold of the ropes and slide out of the ring. Punk gathered his Horsemen together and left
the ring as Flair and his Horsemen celebrated the return of Ric Flair.)
