David Otunga came out and said he's not known for making excuses but he was not prepared for the battle royal. And it wasnt fair as it was 9 against 1. He said he was ready now and called out his opponent. Michael cGillicutty came out and Otunga used big words he said McGillicutty and the crowd didn't understand because they're stupid. He said he was always the brains of the team and carried McGillicutty in the past. He said he was the star everyone came to see and called McGillicutty worthless and attacked him before the bell

6)CM Punk & R-Truth d. Chris Jericho & Miz
Jericho took the mic and told the crowd to shut up and listen to what he says when he says it. 1) He is the best in the world at what he does 2) Miz is second best and he is awesome. He threatens to leave if the crowd doesn't shut up but then says he won't leave until he kicks their opponents' asses. Punk came out and said he didn't come here to talk, he came here to fight and that's the truth.
"R Truth" chants in the crowd as well as "Miz is awesome" chants. Punk and Jericho wrestled briefly then the faces chased the heels out of the ring.
