WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque is in the ring. Levesque gets a tremendous reception. Levesque says that at a time when everyone has an opinion, many have an opinion on who the all-time great is. It could be in-ring ability, charisma, a box office attraction… they’re all subjective. Levesque sees it from a lot of different sides as a fan, a talent, a performer, a businessman, and a promoter. Tonight might be one of those nights where everyone in the building can agree on one thing. When he breaks it down from every category and side, as maybe the most objective person there is, there is only one person at the top of that list. That one person is a box office attraction and left it in the ring every night for twenty years. This one person was ruthless on the microphone and could tear anyone apart. This person did it all with a smile on his face because he loved this business as much as anyone on the face of this planet. He just wanted to see it elevated to the biggest form of entertainment on this planet. That one person, when he looks at it objectively, is the single greatest asset that this business has ever seen. Objectively, he is, without a doubt, the greatest of all time. It is his honor to bring him out here for everyone to see. Levesque tells them to get up for their hometown hero, the greatest of all time, John Cena!
John Cena comes out to a MASSIVE reaction. Cena is fired up. Cena says that was an amazing introduction. Ever since he announced his retirement, the one question he heard a lot is who he would like to face. A “Thank you, Cena” chant picks up. Cena says what happens here is a team effort, but it doesn’t happen without the crowd. It’s amazing how often this question came up: Who should John Cena face? Through it all, there was one question Cena wanted to hear. One person asked him that question. What does he want to do? What is his goal in this exercise? Cena’s goal is to leave the business better than he found it. Cena is super excited about tonight because with the Last Time is Now Tournament, WWE Superstars will showcase their skills to see who will face him for the final time. Cena isn’t going down without a fight. The one thing Cena wants to do is to make his last performance on December 13 at Saturday Night’s Main Event a night to close one chapter, but also a night of opportunity. It’ll be his final in-ring performance, but it’ll give people a chance to showcase their skills. That night, we’ll see WWE stars showcase their abilities against hungry NXT stars. It’ll close one chapter and pave the road ahead. That’s what Cena wants for this tour.
Cena also had one last ask, and it was selfish, but he wanted to come to Boston one last time. Cena doesn’t book the dates or the towns. He’s been in London, Brussels, and Perth. He just wanted to come to Boston one last time. Cena saw his first WWF (bleeped out) show in the old Garden. It means everything to stand in the TD Garden and feel the energy and joy. Cena wanted to thank them…
WWE Intercontinental Champion “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio interrupts him! The AAA Mega and Intercontinental Champion heads to the ring. Cena does not look happy. The crowd loudly boos Mysterio. Mysterio starts to speak in Spanish. Levesque is still in the ring and looks confused. Mysterio says if Cena is talking about the future… the crowd cuts him off with a vulgar chant. Mysterio asks Levesque what he’s going to do about last week. He’s the greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time and the AAA Mega Champion. His celebration was interrupted by a deadbeat. Mysterio is the one who interrupts the old man’s celebrations. What’s most important is what happens to him.
Cena says he wants to start again with Mysterio. Cena welcomes Dom Mysterio to Boston, Massachusetts. Mysterio says it’s not about Cena or Boston. Mysterio tells Cena to sit in the corner, let the grown men handle business, and speak when spoken to… or he’ll put Cena down! Cena chuckles and looks down. The crowd chants, “You f***ed up.” Cena says that was a fine speech, but in the midst of his anger and ego, Mysterio forgets where he is and who he’s talking to. He is John Cena, and this is Boston, Massachusetts. In any other place or city, he’d give Mysterio a chance. Tonight, Cena is invincible! Cena warns Mysterio to choose his words carefully. If he picks a fight with him, he’ll lose. It’s the wrong time, wrong place, and wrong guy. Cena will do Mysterio a favor. Out of the respect he has for his father (Rey Mysterio), he’ll let Dominik turn around and walk his ass through the curtain.
Mysterio looks completely unimpressed. Mysterio smirks and says, “Oh, really, John?” Cena will need more than magic to touch him. Mysterio isn’t even at his peak yet and is already better than Cena in his prime. Mysterio says anytime, any place, any era, he’d have whooped John Cena’s ass. Another “You f***ed up” chant picks up. Levesque says he agrees with the people of Boston, Massachusetts. Levesque mentions that Mysterio said anytime, any place, and any era. Levesque says this is a good era, place, and time. If it’s ok with Cena, Levesque tells Mysterio that he’ll defend the Intercontinental Championship tonight right here and now against the one and only John Cena! Levesque orders a referee to come down here so they can get to work! Cena is fired up!

-Commercial Break-
World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk addresses Logan Paul’s attack
World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk says he’s pissed off and isn’t waiting for a “douchebag” to interrupt him. Punk is going to call him out. Punk isn’t in his wrestling gear, but this is Boston, so he’ll fight in the street. Last week, he got hit with brass knuckles by a piece of garbage named Logan Paul. Punk always knew he was a piece of garbage. Punk isn’t putting his title on the line, but he will put his boot on his broccoli-headed millennial neck. Punk calls him out to get the ass whipping he’s earned.
Logan Paul saunters out to the stage. Why is Punk so mad? Because Paul is smarter than him? Paul says he’s smarter than everyone in the building. Punk says he’s just buying himself time. Paul tells him to shut up. He’s been punched by the greatest boxer of all time: Floyd Mayweather. That was nothing compared to getting dropped by Bronson Reed. Since they dropped dead weight Seth Rollins, they made it clear that if you’re not with them, you’re getting cracked. Paul thought he knew it all, but since taking that Tsunami, his eyes have been opened to a whole new Vision. WWE Hall of Famer Paul Heyman comes out and joins Paul. He’s soon followed by “Big” Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker.
Heyman sarcastically says to stop him if Punk has heard this before: Punk is the most unlikeable human he’s ever met. Punk is friendless, not because they betray him, but because he betrays his friendships. Take it from Punk’s former best friend in the world. Punk is simply one miserable, rotten bastard. Punk is the most unlikable person he’s ever met. He couldn’t be more unlikeable unless his name was AJ Lee! Punk says if his wife were here, she’d leave all four of them in a pool of their own piss and blood. Since she’s not here, it’s up to him.
The Vision and Paul head to the ring, so “Main Event” Jey Uso gets in the ring to stand alongside Punk. Undisputed WWE Champion “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes also runs down to stand alongside them! The Vision looks worried, but they still get in the ring to attack. Punk gets Paul at ringside and punches him down. Punk grabs Heyman, but Paul cuts him off. Punk quickly sends Paul into the barricade. Rhodes grabs a steel chair and hits Breakker. Reed is isolated in the ring with Uso, Punk, and Rhodes. They take turns hitting him. Punk hits Reed with a chair, and Rhodes and Uso clothesline him over the top rope. Punk, Rhodes, and Uso stand tall in the ring. The crowd, who earlier gave Rhodes a mixed reaction, happily sing his name.
