RAW opened the next night with a shot of the three commentators.

"No need to adjust your TV set," Punk said with a smile, "I am not fired and yes they were crazy enough to ask me to do commentary."

"Triple H has obviously lost his mind," Michael Cole said from Punk's left.

"Ah come on Cole. Admit it. You missed me doing commentary. I made things entertaining. Let the party get started."

Suddenly My Time is Now started playing.

"And here comes the party pooper," Punk said subconsciously adjusting his arm sling. He had to be ready for Cena. He was sure Cena was still mad about losing to Kane and being removed from the title match.

John Cena walked around the ring and over to where Frank sat. He grabbed a mic but instead of going into the ring he approached the commentators table. Punk picked up the mic that was lying in front of him. He had come prepared. He knew that Cena would get in his face again that evening and knew the fans should know what he was saying.

"Punk," Cena said as he stood in front of the commentary booth.

"Cena." Punk responded not missing a beat.

"I don't know how you managed to get your job back or how you got your friend into my title match but I'm going to find out."

"My friend? Are you talking about the new WWE champion, spoiler alert, Daniel Bryan? I had nothing to do with making the matches. Despite what I've said before, that's not a hat I wear."

"Yes but you're suddenly Triple H's friend."

"I'm not Triple H's friend. He offered me my job back and I'm not stupid. Of course I'm going to take the job."

"A year ago you were telling the fans how much you hated working here and that you were leaving. You held up the company just so you could get your damn ice cream bars."

"Which I've never gotten by the way," Punk said.

There was a We Want Ice Cream chant.

"We are still working on it," Punk promised the fans before turning his attention back to Cena. "But as I've mentioned before. I love the company I just hate who's in charge. Everyone knows I have my problems with AJ and Hunter and I will never be buddies and that's more then fine with me."

Let's Light it Up started playing.

"Speaking of which," Punk said with a frown. He and AJ hadn't spoken since Cena broke his arm and couldn't imagine what she had to say right now.

AJ came skipping to ringside. She took the mic from CM Punk and turned towards Cena. "CM Punk had nothing to do with you being removed from the title match at Summerslam. I was the one who changed the card."

Punk had to cover his mouth so no one could see him laughing.

"I do think it's only fair that you should get the first title shot against Daniel Bryan and I'm making it for tonight."

She handed the mic back to CM Punk and skipped away without another word.

John Cena dropped the mic on the commentator's desk and left obviously getting what he wanted.

"What a way to start RAW," Lawler said.

Punk just shook his head. Something told him things were just getting started and it wasn't the show.

At the start of the second hour, CM Punk made his way into the ring with microphone in hand. The fans started cheering anticipating what Punk would say.

"As I mentioned earlier," Punk said as he stepped into the middle of the ring, "there is a new WWE champion and his name is Daniel Bryan. John Cena's right. Bryan and I go way back. We wrestled in the same independent company. Some of you may be familiar with that company."

An ROH chant started to break out.

"They said it, I didn't," Punk said into the camera. "We've been friends for years. Right now I'd like to have the new WWE Champion come out to the ring.

John Cena's music hit.

"John I think you're confused," Punk said trying to speak over the music. "I asked for the new WWE Champion to come out not John Cena who thinks he should be the WWE Champion."

John Cena entered the ring, mic in hand. He waited until the music stopped. "I wish I had broken your jaw," Cena said to Punk without a mic so no one else could hear him. He then put the mic in front of his mouth. "CM Punk, like always, is taking over the show. You aren't champ anymore Punk so that doesn't mean the show revolves around you," he grinned, "not that it ever did."

He took a step forward and let Punk see what he had in his hand. "I'm going to make sure it will never be your show."

In the back Hunter Hearst Helmsley had just arrived and looked at the monitors in shock. "Where's Bryan?" He asked one of the sound technicians.

"We don't know. We went to cue up his music and Cena ordered us to play his music."

"Someone find out what happened to Bryan. I'm going out there."

"Wait Hunter," AJ called as she hurried over to him. "I'm sure Punk will be fine. Let me go out there and fix this."

"AJ I don't know if you saw it, but Cena's got a lead pipe and I don't think even you can stop that."

"You want your music on?" One of the sound technicians asked.

"No I'll go out without music." Hunter pushed through the curtain.

In the ring Cena and Punk were oblivious to what was happening at the entrance. Punk looked from the pipe to Cena who had a very serious look on his face. The fans were booing loudly.

"I think I'll start with your jaw," Cena said and took a swing at Punk. Punk was ready for him and kicked him in the stomach. Cena clutched at his stomach but did not drop the pipe.

"Enough!" Hunter yelled as he entered the ring. "Cena your title match tonight will not be taking place. You are suspended. I expect security to remove you from the building."

Cena took a swing at the former COO and Hunter caught his fist and then grabbed him by the other arm and hit a Pedigree.

Punk watched in surprise. This was not going the way he thought it would.

"Security," Hunter yelled, "please escort Mr. Cena from the building."

A couple of security guards came into the ring and dragged Cena from the ring. Hunter followed them out and Punk went back to the commentary table still surprised by what had happened.

"Fans," Michael Cole said as soon as Punk had his headset on, "it appears that Daniel Bryan was attacked backstage and was found unconscious in his dressing room."

Punk shook his head. He knew who had done it. He wondered what was going on with Cena.
