'Tonight...tonight, its a historic night in the WWE, not only does RAW kick off the draft, everyone is wondering why John Cena was drafted before the draft begun. Well, I'll tell you why, because I forced the WWE to draft Cena to Smackdown, because, well, I don't want to deal with him on RAW." Lashley says.
"Its nothing personal John, I just got to pick one person to send to any brand when I signed my contract with the WWE, for the RAW brand, Bobby Lashley is BACK, and next week, I am going to issue an open challenge to ANYONE who wants to step in the ring with me, in my return match...now if you want to step up now, go ahead, be my guest."

"Shut...the hell...up. Both of you washed up former WWE and TNA stars...you are not welcome on RAW, both of you, Lashley...Foley, can get your asses out of MY ring, not your ring, and no one will answer your open challenge Lashley, but I will gladly accept to throw your ass around the ring a few times." Jericho says.
"WHAT DID I SAY?" Love yells suddenly, still holding the microphone while Lashley asks for a new one. "I SAID MY NAME IS DUDE LOVE, NOT DUDE FOLEY, OR MICK LOVE, OR MICK FOLEY FOR THAT MATTER! DAMMIT!" he continues, and the crowd seems amused.
The crowd pops loudly as he takes off his shirt and glasses into his Cactus Jack attire. He looks dead serious.
"Do you see what you've done jericho? Do you see what you've brought out? I didn't want to come out and do this, and I really think you deserve a beating, I already accepted Bobby Lashley's open challenge, and you have a match in a few minutes...so I'm going to leave, and leave you two gentlemen in here." Mick says before getting out of the ring and limping up the stage.
