![]() But Ric Flair will come out here and he'll cry his 182 year eyes out and say 'Oh, I did it for all of you'. There's good guys and there's bad guys in this world and make no mistake about it, ladies and gentlemen, I am a bad, bad man and I can freely admit it. I watched Roddy Piper smash a coconut over Jimmy Snuka's head and I sure as hell didn't say 'Golly Gee! I can't wait to go electrify the people of Tamba Bay, Florida.' No! Because I don't care about the people of Tampa Bay, Florida. Let's hear it for Tampa, Florida!' Here's some honesty. They'll come out here and they'll say 'I do it for the people, I do it for all of you. ![]() Now, I'm the most honest man in this building, I'm the most honest man in this company 'cause everybody else has got the same, old, tired crybaby story. And I have attained this success, not- not because of you. So much that my one year equals 30 of theirs. I wrestle physically demanding matches on free television, week in and week out. You never see a Hulk Hogan wrestle TLC matches against a superstar like Ryback. Because wrestling one night a month at Madison Square Garden is easy. If I- if I competed in Bruno Sammartino's era, I'd have been champion for 20 years, too. ![]() You don't get noticed until you start to move a couple of t-shirts around here. No, that's another little buzzword that somebody backstage wants you to say. I've become the most successful WWE champion of all time. And nobody's ever been able to attain a modicum of success without you.Įxcept for now. We're all here in the circus to entertain you. This is the way it's been since the beginning of the time. It's easy, it's, it's simple to digest because you people can't handle anything complicated, you people can't stomach anything interesting. You're doing it now! You're falling for everything I say, you're playing into my hands, but this is the way it is and this is the way you want it because this is the way you handle it. Or why an invisible child, Little Jimmy, is better positioned on the flagship show Monday Night RAW than a workhorse like Tyson Kidd. Or why a 400 pound monster, Brodus Clay, soils his hands by touching your filthy, ugly, little children to get in the ring so he can shuck and jive for you. Why do you think a guy like John Cena, who has admittedly had the worst year of his career, gets title shot after title shot after title shot after title shot? Or why a lethal grappler, why a serious submission specialist like Daniel Bryan puts a smile on his face and settles himself, belittles himself with catchphrases. The more you people cheer for any given superstar, the more opportunities you're afforded. The more popular you are, the more money you make. There is a gla** ceiling and nobody is allowed to break it. ![]() Because here is the truth about Las Vegas, here is the truth about the WWE is that it doesn't matter that if you're the best wrestler, it doesn't matter if you're the best talker, it doesn't matter if you're the best overall performer, it doesn't matter if you make the two clowns sitting to my left on commentary look like amateur hour. See, I created this persona, this rebel, this anti hero that you all love to cheer for because I knew that you all love to cheer for your superheroes. Instead I made a conscious decision and I sold out. But I was shortchanged and I was disrespected, and sure, I could have just swallowed that bitter pill and accepted my position in the company like everybody else in the back, or I could have left. Except the part about ice cream 'cause I look out here and the last thing any of you people need is more bars of ice cream. I meant everything I said when I said it. And then maybe my ego was like a runaway train and I suddenly b**hed and moaned and complained about respect and how I didn't get enough of it. Seems the perception of me is somebody who is a little disgruntled and sat down on a stage in Las Vegas and aired his grievances and said 'pipe bomb'. You boil it down and then the essence of a pipe bomb is exactly what all of you lack, honesty. Basically what a pipe bomb is in its truest form is the truth. ![]() It doesn't seem anybody in the Universe understands what it means anybody in this company doesn't understand what a pipe bomb is. And for the past year and a half the words 'pipe bomb' have been completely misunderstood and misused. I keep my ear to the ground and I hear everything everybody says. CM Punk: "The time has come to tell you all something very personal. ![]()
