“Yes, sir, we promised you a great main event…”

We’re kicking things off with CM Punk entering the ring. Punk says that some say the show thrives on unpredictability. It was predictable that Heyman would come out in his hometown of Chicago, and predictable that Punk would chase after him, and predictable that Punk would be attacked when he did. But Punk is okay with this because he know that the story ends when Punk gets his hands on Paul Heyman. But no one knows when the story is going to end. The history books might say that Heyman pinned Punk in the ring, but the world will know that Punk put Heyman out of his misery.

Maddox comes out and tells Punk to cool it. Punk asks why Maddox has no entrance music. Maddox ignores the question and says that he knows why Punk is angry. Maddox says that Punk engaging Paul Heyman and Ryback tonight is not what is best for business. But since Maddox is the GM, he can give Punk a match if he wants one. Big E Langston and exclaims that if Punk wants aggression, then Langston is his man. Big E attacks Punk, the two go back and forth and Maddox calls in a ref to officiate the match.

Paul Heyman is asked about Punk backstage. Heyman says that Punk will never be able to intimidate Heyman because Punk is a nobody.

But he’s glad that he did it because it motivated him to become to the viper that he once was.
