Sheamus is walking in the back as we go to commercial.
We are back and The Champ is Here as Sheamus comes to the ring. Sheamus tells the record to show that he has beaten Cena in a Tables Match, a Fatal Four Way, and now a Steel Cage. When he beat Cena the first time, they called it a fluke. The second time, they called it luck. Now that he has done it a third time, it should be called dominance. What is next for John Cena. John gets to the back of the line and he won’t get another title match against him again. Cena should have done what he did earlier tonight. He found Wade Barrett and he told him that he demands a truce. One year ago, nobody heard of Sheamus or the Nexus, but like it or not, they are the two most powerful entities in the entire WWE. They don’t have to like each other. They will stay out of each other’s business. Sheamus says that the truce is in effect starting tonight. That is good news for him, but not for Randy Orton. The only way he can lose the title is through Nexus interference. Randy Orton doesn’t stand a chance. Sheamus says that Orton can watch him become the longest reigning WWE Champion of all time.
The Fella is interrupted by something AWESOME as Miz comes to the ring. Miz congratulates Sheamus for getting rid of his Nexus problem but now he has a bigger problem. He has a Miz problem. Miz says that Sheamus doesn’t control the fate of the WWE Championship because he does. He has the Money in the Bank briefcase. He says that he can cash it in any time he wants for a title match. Every time that Sheamus is in the ring, he will be watching him. If Sheamus is able to beat Randy Orton at Summerslam and if Randy Orton hits him with an RKO and he will cash it in. Maybe Sheamus will be in the back talking like a tough guy . . . fella. Maybe he hits Sheamus with the briefcase and drags him into the ring and gets the title. Maybe he waits regardless of who the champion is. He waits for the moment that he has been building for his entire career. He main events Wrestlemania. Maybe he forgets about all of that and cashes it in tonight. He tells Sheamus that he can call him his celebrity stalker and then he tells Sheamus that he will be watching him. Sheamus tells Miz that he is nothing. Sheamus reminds Miz that he is the champion.
It is time for an e-mail from the General Manager with the light switch to the building. If Miz wants to cash in the briefcase, he might want to be at ringside because Sheamus will be in a match against Evan Bourne.
