Teddy Long is in the ring and he has something to say. Teddy says that after what happened at Vengeance, the status of Mark Henry, Big Show, and the World Championship are in a state of flux. Despite the injuries suffered by both men, they are both here. Teddy promises to everyone that the future of the World Title will be addressed tonight.
Speaking of people who want the World Title, Christian makes his way to the ring. He tells Teddy that the future of the World Championship will be discussed right now. There is no doubt that what Mark and Show did at Vengeance was historic. By that he means that it is history. As far as he is concerned, Big Show had his chance and he blew it. That makes a big hole in the World Title picture.
Christian says that the void will be filled by the man who dominated this brand over the last five months. Teddy reminds Christian that the last time he saw Christian, he was getting his head kicked off his shoulders by Sheamus.
Christian says that he is resilient and then he tells Teddy to try to find someone more deserving than him.
While he might not be a top contender for the World Title, CM Punk makes his way to the ring.
Christian says that before he was so rudely interrupted, he was going to say that he deserves one more match. Christian wants to know why Punk was here.
Teddy says that since Raw has enjoyed using Smackdown superstars, he pulled some strings for Raw superstars to be on Smackdown tonight for a Super Smackdown.
Punk says that before he was rudely interrupted by Christian’s yakking. He thanks Teddy for having him here on a show with competent leadership.
Christian tells Punk that he never met Teddy before. Punk says that Teddy makes Johnny look a lot worse than he really is. Laurinaitis makes Teddy look like FDR. Punk says that he is here because he is a huge fan of Rusty Bird. Punk sees the ‘One More Match’ signs. He wants Christian to get one more match and he tells Christian that he is a fan of his work.
Christian does not want Punk to lecture him and then he brings up how Punk hijacked the title during the summer. Christian says that it was a complete joke and it is a complete joke that John Laurinaitis is considering Punk for a title match with Alberto Del Rio.
Punk says that might be why Johnny is so bad at his job. Maybe John is considering it because he doesn’t waste all of the people’s time bitching and moaning and bitching and bitching and bitching and bitching and bitching.
The fans chant for Punk and then Christian says that he doesn’t care if Punk was invited or not. As the leader of Smackdown and the most respected man in the locker room, he is not going to stand here and take this. He tells Punk to take his pipe bomb back to Raw because nobody wants him here.
Punk rhetorically comments that no one wants him here. Punk sheepishly says that he will take his pipe bomb back to Raw, but over 10,000 people in Houston want him here. Punk says that he would bet money that the people of Houston want to see him in a match. In a match with . . . Christian.
Punk wants to know if that can get done and Teddy tells Punk that it can get done.
