CM Punk.[/center]
Marty Elias raised CM Punk’s hand in victory but Punk still never looked pleased Punk just rolled out of the ring and made his way back up the ramp.

“CM Punk is still obviously upset about coming up short last night at WrestleMania especially because when he tagged out to Mick Foley it seemed victory was in their grasp” – Jerry Lawler

“Punk has every right to be upset about losing but Punk has lost before and came back stronger but he’s sees a different look in CM Punk’s eyes and he hopes CM Punk gets over last night before he does something he may later regret” – Jim Ross

WWE World Heavyweight Champion ‘The Animal’ Batista’s locker room was shown on the big screen which got a huge ovation from the crowd in attendance.

Video aired looking at the rivalry between ‘Heartbreak Kid’ Shawn Michaels and ‘Rated R’ Superstar’ Edge showing Edge spit in Shawn Michaels face, reveal many of Shawn Michaels past sins bringing up Michaels past problems with drugs and also involving Shawn Michaels’ wife and children telling Shawn Michaels he would take them all away from him after he beat him at WrestleMania because Edge promised at WrestleMania… “Shawn Michaels’ sins come back to haunt him!”

Sunday 6th April 2008: WrestleMania: ‘Rated R’ Superstar’ Edge beat ‘Heartbreak Kid’ Shawn Michaels giving into the temptation not to beat Shawn Michaels while moments earlier in the match Shawn Michaels refused to give into temptation and hit Edge with a steel chair…

Shawn Michaels’ hit in the arena which brought the fans too their feet and the man who was the first ever WWE World Heavyweight Champion made his way down the ramp slapping hands with the fans but ‘Heartbreak Kid’ wasn’t all fun and games tonight. Once HBK had rolled into the ring he immediately asked for a microphone…

“Edge let me make this short and sweet… You may have brought up all the things that I’m not to pleased to have done, you may have spat in my face, involved my wife and kids threatened my relationship, mocked the man I have become and my relationship with God and last night you even beat me on the biggest stage of them all at WrestleMania… BUT there is one thing you never managed to do and that was break me!”

Fans on their feet chanting “HBK”, Michaels took in the applause but raised his hand asking them to stop so he could continue talking…

“Edge it was you that gave into temptation… It was you that couldn’t stand by your word, you showed the world how weak and pathetic you really are! The only thing left now is for me too kick your teeth down your throat…

“You think you know me! You think you know me! On this day I see clearly…”

Edge with a huge smirk on his face walked out on to the stage and he too had a microphone in hand, Edge’s music stopped and the fans were all over him but it just brought Edge out in a big smile he was soaking it all up…

“Oh my God, Shawn you really think I gave into temptation?”

Edge was now laughing to himself as HBK looked out at Edge angry but a little confused as Edge was about to continue…

“I never gave into temptation Shawn! Let me let you in on a little secret… it was a ruse, a set up along!! All I’ve ever wanted out of this since it started was to beat you at WrestleMania”…

“YOU… involved my wife and kids! You mocked my religious beliefs for nothing!! – HBK interrupted Edge who was still smiling at Shawn Michaels…

“It wasn’t for nothing Shawn, you cost me the chance to accomplish my ultimate dream of becoming the WWE World Heavyweight Champion plus it adds to his accomplishments and puts him closer to a shot at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship”…

“I reached the Semi Finals of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship Tournament… I last an hour in the 30 Man Royal Rumble Match and now with the world watching… on the biggest stage of them all… at WrestleMania I beat the first ever WWE World Heavyweight Champion… The Showstopper… The Main Event… The Icon… My teenage idol… HEARTBREAK KID SHAWN MICHAELS!!

Edge raised his arms in celebration as the fans were chanting HBK’s name again but Shawn Michaels was just standing in the ring fists clinched, teeth gritted together trying to stop himself from leaving the ring and beating the hell out of Edge. Edge seen HBK was trying to control himself so Edge leaned his face forward and pointed at his chin telling Michaels to take a free shot.

“Shawn I thank you for taking part in my rise to the top of the WWE and for my next act I’m going to go on and become the King of the Ring as for you… That’s it!”

“That’s not it” – HBK shot straight back at Edge…
“Oh yes it is Shawn”

Edge had the last word before walking backwards back through the entrance way as Shawn Michaels was just standing in the ring looking back up the ramp at where Edge was standing.

“I don’t think it’s over JR not if Shawn Michaels gets his way” – Jerry Lawler…
“Edge has questioned Shawn Michaels’ integrity telling everyone that Shawn Michaels hasn’t changed that Shawn is just fooling everyone. Edge spat in the mans face, attempted to ruin his relationship with his wife Rebecca, mocked Shawn’s religious beliefs and beat him at WrestleMania so this issue between Shawn Michaels and Edge is far from over!” – Jim Ross.

Morrison told Grisham that last night at WrestleMania everyone saw the biggest upset of all time even bigger than Buster Douglas’ knock out of Iron Mike when he the ‘Guru of Greatness’, the ‘Sharman of Sexy’ was defeated by Carlito but Morrison said he had an excuse ready! Morrison’s excuse was he may have been there in body bedazzled and all but he wasn’t there in mind. Morrison revealed where his mind was he said he was standing over Rob Van Dam’s body being announced as the new WWE United States Champion!! Morrison called RVD, VD and reminded RVD that he has beaten once before and he will beat him again because everything RVD can do he can do better and RVD has every reason to… Be Jealous…

Randy Orton came up behind John Morrison spun him around which gave Morrison a shock, Orton was right up in Morrison’s face and Morrison was clearly uncomfortable and tried to make small talk with Orton but Orton cut Morrison off and told Morrison to make sure his mind turns up tonight before walking off leaving Morrison and Melina behind him…

John Morrison was next out and the ring became surrounded by paparazzi taking pictures of Morrison at Morrison’s request Melina ordered a microphone and held it to Morrison’s mouth…

“This will only take two seconds Randy” Morrison looking out at the paparazzi continued
“I know why you are all out here but you’re not going to see it again! WrestleMania turned into a nightmare for me last night… having Carlito spit apple in my face was the worst experience of my life but I’m going to get over it by beating VD and becoming the new WWE United States Champion and none of you fat disgusting pigs will ever see me at my worst again!”

Carlito was out first but he stopped at the top of the ramp and Carlito was quickly followed out by the WWE United States Champion Rob Van Dam to a huge ovation from the crowd; RVD who had the U.S Title over his shoulder joined Carlito on the ramp RVD and Carlito seemed to be laughing and joking together before turning and looking up at the Titan-Tron…
