Vickie is backstage in her office reading WWE Magazine. WWE Champion CM Punk and Paul Heyman walk up to her.
Punk: Right now I want you to explain to me what you think you’re doing. Did you just give Ryback a WWE title shot at TLC?
Vickie: I did.
Punk: Oh you did? And you’re going to be flippant about it? I’m 2 and 0 against Ryback, and now you’re putting him in a TLC match with me?!
Heyman: You know, with the whole Cena/AJ scandal going on, maybe you’re not thinking with a clear head.
Vickie: My head is clear
Punk: No it’s not!
Heyman: We get the politics. It’s brilliant of you. You’re biased against Cena, and to cover your tracks you’re biased against CM Punk. It’s smart-
Vickie: I gave Ryback a title shot because of Hell in a Cell with Brad Maddox and at Survivor Series with your boys-
Punk: My boys!? I have nothing to do with them! I’m just as curious as you are with what they have to say.
Vickie: Well you won’t have time to find out because tonight you’re facing either Daniel Bryan or Kane.
Punk flips out and Heyman tries to calm him down.
Punk: I’m the champion! What is wrong with you?!
They leave her office.
Tonight, you can choose CM Punk’s opponent. Will it be Daniel Bryan or Kane? Vote on Twitter.
Up next, Cole interviews Reigns, Rollins, and Ambrose about why they attacked Ryback.
[Commercial]
The pre-taped interview starts.
Cole: Dean, Seth, Reigns, it’s been a pleasure to have seen you in NXT. It’s strange to be interviewing you under these circumstances. Many people have questions for the three of you in regards to your recent actions.
Ambrose: Many people? Who are these people? If you’ve got a question to ask us just ask.
Cole: Okay. Are you three working for WWE Champion CM Punk.
Ambrose: Nope.
Cole: Okay. So if you’re not working for Punk, then why are you guys here?
Seth: That’s the question. We sat down in NXT and saw that everyone has to answer to the likes to Vickie and Booker who have to answer to the Board of Directors who ultimately have to answer to the WWE Universe. What is that? That’s a popularity contest and that’s wrong, Michael. We stepped in and righted those wrongs. We are a shield for injustice in WWE.
Cole: Everything you’ve done has benefited CM Punk.
Ambrose: Coincidence. Happenstance. CM punk was fortunate to defend his title against two men he already defeated. It was wrong. If Ryback was champion for 365 days and Punk tried to get involved we would have gotten involved on behalf of Ryback. 365 days is something to celebrate, not interfere in.
Cole: Reigns, what are your thoughts on all this?
Reigns: When I want to say something i’ll say it.
Ambrose: We hear everything you guys are saying. We’re not mercenaries, we’re not Nexus. You want the NWO go buy the DVD. We’re a shield from injustice. We are the shield.
Cole: Okay, so…
Reigns stands up.
Reigns: Hey. I got something to say. We’ve said enough. This interview is over.
Reigns, Rollins and Ambrose get up and leave.
Tonight, Vickie has a “lovebirds surprise” for Cena and AJ tonight. Plus, choose Punk’s opponent via Twitter.

[Commercial]
John Cena comes out and heads into the ring. He grabs a microphone.
Cena: After seeing that Dolph Ziggler got what was coming to him. I’ve been with the WWE for ten years. We’ve shared a lot of moments. WrestleMania moments with HBK, Triple H, the Rock. But in his ten years he has never been more interrogated since kissing AJ. A gentlemen will normally not kiss and tell, but i’ll make an exception.
Vickie comes out.
Vickie: EXCUSE ME! I hate to say I told you so-ah, who am I kidding? I LOVE to say I told you so. Seeing that love scene last week proves that they have been having an affair. But seeing as how the season has put me in the holiday mood, I have a gift for you and AJ.
A present is put into the ring.
Cena: Please tell me the gift if you’re retiring.
Vickie opens the present.
Vickie: I got you matching bathrobes! It’s a little token of appreciation for their love. Because the one thing i’m going to enjoy is watching them squirm and watching their world whole come crashing down. This is psychotic AJ Lee we’re talking about. She cost Daniel Bryan the World Championship at Wrestlemania. She proposed to CM Punk without going on a date with him. AJ isn’t stable.
AJ comes out and walks to the ring.
Vickie: Let me guess. You’re coming out to deny that you acted like a lovesick puppy when guys talked to you backstage.
AJ: You’re right. It’s okay John, it’s true. In the past i’ve had a lot of issues, especially with men. But i’m trying to become a better person. Do you know what a better person is, Vickie? I didn’t think so. This whole scandal was based on the face that we had inappropriate relationships while I was GM. But now that i’m not GM I can date whatever I want. I can do whatever i want. For example, I can do this.
AJ strokes Cena’s face.
AJ: Or I can do this.
She pats Cena’s butt.
AJ: Or…I can do this.
AJ goes to kiss him.
Vickie: OKAY OKAY! I get it. Move on.
AJ: Yeah, you do get it because as GM you can’t do those things anymore. Which is a shame because being the boss is the only way you can land a man. What i’m trying to say is that i’m not that lovesick puppy anymore. But between the two of us, there’s only one female dog in this ring right now.
Dolph Ziggler comes out and walks down to the ring.
Ziggler: Well well well. While this particular episode of the Jerry Springer show is oh so entertaining, you’re all losing the fact of the real story here. Cena can’t deal with the fact that I tackled him through a bathroom stall and he took it. And then for some reason completely unprovoked, you cheap shotted me, John. You attacked me from behind on Smackdown. Something about that didn’t sit right. Why would John resort to such cowardly tactics? I was wrapping my brain and then it hit me. I know, John. I know what’s eating you up inside. Last week when you kissed AJ and she jumped in your arms and wrapped her fingers around your neck, she closed her eyes and shoved her tongue down your throat, you know she was thinking about me the entire time.
Cena: That’s funny, but here’s what I know. The sun will rise tomorrow, we are live in Lafayette, Louisiana, and i’m about to walk down there and stuff that briefcase down your throat.
Vickie: WAIT WAIT WAIT! There will be no more fighting on a Raw stage. We’re going to settle this in the ring and see who the better man is. Dolph Ziggler versus John Cena…tonight!
Ziggler and Cena glare at each other.
