You breaking Flairs record John is unacceptable. You may be the 17 time World Champion but you don't deserve it.* (Fans boo) Go ahead and boo you know it's the truth. The clock is ticking John. 13 Days. The King of Kings will be back on his Throne. "

Ask your Son Shane just how dangerous I am in such environments.* I beat his *** last Tuesday in the Last Man Standing Match.* (Shane is pissed off at this as the Authority calms him down.) Shane how are you feeling? We went to war last week and I put you down and won. But don't worry I'm not finished with you yet but first I'm coming for your old man. I'm gonna kick him in the head at Extreme Rules and that's a promise. "
WWE Champion John Cena comes out shaking hands with Orton on stage as he raises the Microphone.
Cena: "You know there's an old saying that goes "The more things change the more they stay the same." Because when I look down there in that ring, when I look at this New Authority that arrived in the WWE this is what I see. Shawn Michaels. I see Batista. The CEO himself Mr. McMahon.* The Golden spoon himself Shane McMahon. And of course the King and Queen the Power Couple themselves Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.* But here's the change. There was a time where Randy Orton was by your side. There was a time where Kane was in your pocket. And there was a time where your Golden Boy Seth Rollins was the diamond of the Authority and look what happened over the years. This New Authority is gonna find out the hard way at Extreme Rules when John Cena is pushing back. Triple H I'm gonna kick your ***! Tonight me Randy and Seth are coming for you!"

For years I have always done things for you people. When I was fighting the Authority all those Months I was doing it for you all. And never once have you people been there for me.

"You see I got tired of trying to make your dreams come true I wasn't following mine. When I fought the Authority I did it for you idiots. Yet when I broke my neck and had to relinquish the World Heavyweight Championship you people didn't give a damn about me! When I was healing away from the WWE you people didn't care. Instead you began cheering for other people to make your dreams come true.* Well I didn't forget that. That was the moment I knew I didn't need you anymore. (Fans boo)*But when I was down and out and you the WWE Universe turned your back on me there was someone who reached out to me and helped me see the light. His name is Shawn Michaels.* That's right he reminded me who I was. He told me if I stopped worrying about you people and your dreams and start worrying about mine I can be whatever I want to be. You know something? HBK was right. I don't need you idiots anymore from now it's Daniel Bryan and his dreams."
