He says that he is still injured and that Beth Phoenix, Santino Marella, Cody Rhodes, and Ted DiBiase hurt Raw. He said that CM Punk disgraces the World Heavyweight Championship belt. He says that Beth is embarrassing herself and he could beat Santino. Orton says that DiBiase and Rhodes aren't priceless but worthless. He says that he would love to take the belt from CM Punk tonight but he is not medically cleared. CM Punk hits the right and says that Orton is jealous of him but he cannot worry about him tonight because he has a Battle Royal later in the show.
