After the match: MJF got up with a microphone: “Cut his music. PG Punk. Good to see ya. Last week you said you were disappointed in me. That’s interesting because I’m proud of you. It takes a lot of balls to call yourself the 'Best in the World' when you’re struggling to beat jobbers. These days you’re more interested in getting in the pants of Britt Baker. You’re not CM Punk. You’re One Pump Chump!” -- CM Punk: “You’ve got a lot of nerve coming out here talking about pants when you’re clearly wearing Larry David’s pajamas. Lee Moriarty is better than you and you know it. You shut up. I’ll shut up. Get in the ring right now and I’ll kick your ass all the way back to Long Island.” -- MJF: “You need me more than I need you. But don’t you worry because I’m going to show you what a real professional looks like next week when I win the Dynamite Diamond Battle Royal in Long Island. I’m going to be better than Piper in Portland. I’m going to be better than Bret in Canada. I’m going to be better than CM Punk in Chicago! “Speaking of loud noises. You must have brought your dog Larry because I heard him yapping in the back. If you bring your dog back here again, I’m going to put Larry to sleep!” -- CM Punk jumped out of the ring and approached MJF but Wardlow came out to defend MJF. Wardlow and MJF walked off.
