Punk asks if it feels good to be alive on a Monday night in Everett. Punk says they are sold out tonight. The last time you saw him, he was on the ramp after a potentially career ending Hell in a Cell match and he said he didn’t know what was next for him. Now he is fresh off a potential career ending War Games match, but he says he knows where is going. He is less beaten up than after Hell in a Cell. Punk says he put his things aside and took care of Drew McIntyre. Punk says he took care of some stuff for Paul.

There might not be a sign hanging but he sees it. He knows what the future for CM Punk holds. There are multiple roads to get there and multiple ways to finish your story. The Royal Rumble is around the corner. Then there is Elimination Chamber. Any road he takes is a dead end, but he has a favor or two to get where he needs to go.
Seth Rollins music play and he makes his way to the ring.
Seth says he has been thinking a lot and he really should have knocked his ass out the day Punk returned to WWE. Seth says he regrets that every day for the past year. Over that year, a lot has gotten in the way. You got hurt. He had titles to defend. Seth says he had a Bloodline to take down. The last time he saw Punk, he was this close to taking his shot, but he had pity for Punk. You came out of Hell in a Cell and you were hanging by a thread. Seth says he had pity for Punk and that was his mistake.
Seeing you standing next to Roman Reigns on Saturday, it was time to rectify his mistakes. Seth takes off his jacket and he says as they stand here right now, there is nothing in his way, nothing in your way. Nothing to hold them back. The only thing between them is air and hatred. He says tonight is the night he is going to knock CM Punk on his ass.

Seth understands that Jey and Roman are family. Seth says he is a bit pissed off. He understands that Jey is family, but what is Sami’s excuse. Seth says he is closer to Sami than Sami is to Jey and Roman. You stab him in the back when you team with CM Punk.
Sami says he didn’t ask to team with Punk. He didn’t want Punk to be his partner but they were down a man and he took it. Sami says he wanted Seth. He reminds Seth that he asked him twice and Seth said no both times. They wouldn’t have teamed with Punk if you weren’t so damn stubborn.
Seth asks if he is losing his mind. Seth wanted to know what Sami wanted him to team with? It was to help Roman Reigns and to let that monster regain his power.
Sami reminds Seth that he created that monster when you put a chair in his back ten years ago. Don’t act like your hands are clean.
Seth says he understands what he has done and the sins he has done. He knows that putting the chair in Roman’s back was motivation for Roman and he has apologized and atoned for it. Seth says that Sami did the same thing and he doesn’t blame Sami for that. He says Roman treated him like crap. Seth says they sacrificed to stop the Bloodline. He says Roman has not changed. Has Roman apologized to anyone or shown any remorse. Punk hasn’t changed. Stubbornness is not the issue. Your naivete is your issue. He tells Sami that he is acting stupid now.
Sami says Seth is angry and he has a lot of frustration. If you to let some steam off, he will meet Seth in the ring tonight if that is how he wants it. Seth says if that is what Sami wants, that is fine by him.
