Footage of the match with Wade Barrett from last week is shown. The two trading holds and feats of strength until the underlying result was The Franchise picking up the victory and leaving the ring before Nexus could charge him. Cameras show Shane Douglas standing inside of a popular New York City nightclub to promote a future WWE Franchise stop in the Big Apple. Shane's dancing with a few ladies surrounding him. His suit is stripped down to an opened white button up shirt tucked into his gray dress pants with a brown leather belt. Douglas is also sporting a WWE Franchise ball cap. He seems to be enjoying himself until the camera arrive. He's seen ending a phone call and tucking his phone away into his pocket before speaking to the camera.
"Isn't great to be a Franchise?! Hahahaha! I told you people last week that I would defeat Wade Barrett.. I told everyone that would advance in the Royal Rumble Lottery.. And now I get a little bit more of a taste of this so called faction known to us as the Nexus.. I also get a preview of a potential opponent in one CM Punk.. Now I'll be the first to admit, I was shocked as hell to hear that CM Punk wanted to team up with me in this main event match up. See I remember when Punk first came in here to WWE Franchise.. I remember him night after night taking beatings like no man should ever endure. I caught myself being drawn in by his tenacity and fortitude, because as a man once said, the tough get going and the going get tough.. When ECW reformed over a year ago.. I told Paul Heyman that CM Punk would provide quality television and that he did! He found his nitch and made his mark to become a player in this company.. It's evident by his track record and this week, CM Punk, you get a second chance at greatness because you're teaming with the man who's going to not only lead you to victory but it going to be the next WWE Franchise World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion."
Shane turns his cap backwords and dismisses the women for a moment to go back to his private booth where he's got a few drinks lined up on the table. He grabs one and takes a gulp of it before sitting the glass down on the table.
"Although I'm here in New York for most of this week to promote our next few shows, that doesn't mean I'm not working on my game. I know CM Punk will be there and he will be the one to wart off any issues we may have but I have to prepare for the unpredictability and the thug mentality of the Nexus. See don't you band of rookies think that I didn't see you coming! Don't you think that for one single solitary second that I didn't have a feeling that you would rush to Wade Barrett's aide as soon as I placed him down to the mat and took the victory! I've played these games before boys, I freaking invented gang warfare and retribution in this industry! I was the one taking people out and controlling several companies at once because there was no one who could touch the Triple Threat! But now that time has come and gone, a new chapter has risen and now I'm on the outside looking in. What I see looming is the unity of WWE Franchise.. I see people right now plotting and planning to eradicate the very problem of this company and a dangerous entity at that.. Everyone is fearing the possibility of the Nexus taking over.. Well at least everyone but me.. You see I don't give a d**n either way what Nexus plans to do or who they're going to do it to because I'm here for one thing and one thing only.. ME!"
Shane takes another drink quickly and slams the empty glass down. The ladies come over and join him in the booth. He's got his arm draped around the two nearest to him as the other two scoot in closer to them.
"As I was coming here to the club, my limo took a detour to a local escort service and I walked in with a wad of hundred dollar bills flopped them down in front of the owner. I asked every woman in the room if they had the gumption to try and satisfy the Franchise! Hahaha! And I went through a thorough examination of each before finding the best a man could get to party all night, and party just a little longer at the Double Tree tonight because Space Mountain is no longer in service! But back to the topic on hand, see if I have to use CM Punk this week to get what I want, I'll do it.. I can decide whether he lives or dies in that ring this week because I know that Nexus won't be able to. Just like I know I'll have and will continue to have your number Wade Barrett. You did surprise me last week, you showed me that you could rise to the occasion and try. Now you think that since you're teaming with your pal David Otunga that you're going to have an edge? The only edge you're going to get is if my old pal Edge comes to ringside and takes you out! And seriously, David Otunga?! The guy who is arm candy to a singer who could place a tune in a bucket and really win a singing contest?!"
Douglas looks around at the women around him. He steals kisses on the cheek of each woman next to him and reaches out to caress the other two around them. Then he turns back to the camera.
"Otunga, I hope you can wrestle better than your woman sings or are you just arm candy for your partner? Either way it's not going to matter.. Either way you're going to be seeing CM Punk and Shane Douglas walking out of Raw with a victory. And then the momentum is just going to keep on rolling because The Franchise was born to be the best! Hahahaha!"
Camera fades out as Douglas keeps talking nothings to the ladies and signing autographs for people as they come past him.
