Mean Gene welcomed Terry Taylor, the Executive Vice President of AWW and Jonathan Coachman, the Deputy Director of the AWW to the interview area.
Gene, "Earlier today Mr. Taylor you told me you had an announcement to make tonight. What is that announcement?"
Taylor, "Well Gene, I am happy to announce that next week, Bret "The Hitman" Hart will make a special appearance."
Gene, "What an announcement! What will he be doing?"
Taylor, "I'm not entirely sure what he wants to do. Bret called me and asked when was the next time we would have an event close to him. I told him that next week we'd be in Edmonton and he said he'd love to make an appearance. So I don't know what prompted the call but we are certainly happy to have 'The Best There Is, The Best There Was and The Best...
Kofi Kingston interrupted.
Kofi, "You know, it has been a while since the first episode of Slamfest and for some reason Coach has not been punished for rigging the Global Heavyweight Championship match lottery."
Taylor, "You're right. He has not been punished and he will not be punished. He was only doing as he was told."
Kofi, "Who told him to do it?"
Taylor, "We were told never to tell but we can say the orders came from a very powerful person. A person you'd be wise not to cross."
Kofi, "Wait. That's what Beth Phoenix told CM Punk. What is going on?"
Taylor, "That's none of your business. You better go get ready, you have a match tonight."

Terry Taylor was on the phone in his office when CM Punk barged in.
Taylor, "Uh, I'll call you back." He hung up the phone. "What do you want?"
Punk, "I want to know why you told Kofi the same thing Beth told me."
Taylor, "The message we sent was the message we were told to send. Don't blame either of us, we were doing what we were told."
Punk, "So you know who ordered the attack on me? You, Coach and Beth and Joey are taking orders from some powerful person. You must know who attacked me since the messages were the same. Tell me who it is. NOW!"
Taylor, "I'm unable to do that at this time. However, I do want to show you this picture message I received earlier and was told to show you."
Punk, "What the hell does that mean?"
Taylor, "I couldn't tell you."
Punk, "You don't know what it is or you don't want to tell me what it is?"
Taylor, "I don't know what it is."
Punk, "You better hope that I never find out that you actually knew what it was."
Punk stormed out of Taylor's office.
In the ring was R-Truth. Next out was Daniel Bryan.
The match was pretty even until Truth went for a scissors kick but Bryan moved out of the way. Bryan ran to the ropes and then dove at Truth with a flying forearm which knocked Truth to the mat. Bryan got down to one knee and pulled Truth up a bit and started hitting Truth with repeated elbow strikes to the head. After about 12 he stopped. Truth was lying in the middle of the ring while Bryan ascended to the top rope. He posed and then was suddenly pushed off. He fell onto the ropes. The ref declared that the match was over. Bryan won by DQ. Ezekiel Jackson got on the apron and ran at Bryan and hit him with a clothesline which knocked Bryan to the floor. Zeke jumped down off the apron. He went after Bryan. He picked Bryan up and pressed him over his head. Zeke then dropped him on the barricade. Zeke picked up Bryan and threw him into the ring post. Bryan was crawling near the announce table. Zeke went over and cleared off the announce table. Zeke grabbed Bryan and lifted him up and delivered a uranage slam through the table. Zeke smiled and left. The cameraman focused on Bryan as the show went to commercial.
