In Ring Segment: Pope Returns
Pope is wearing a sling and eyepatch, still showing his injuries from Lockdown. He says AJ tried taking away his career and wants to know who AJ thinks he is. Pope says he didn’t forget about AJ and eventhough he got the win, Pope will get his revenge because he isn’t done with AJ. Pope says he won’t regroup, because when he falls he gets right back up. He says AJ tripped him, but Pope is back up. Pope calls for an AMEN and is interrupted by Mr. Anderson. He reaches for his mic from the rafters and says wow. Anderson says he is going to call Pope the Kool-Aid man. Not the Oh Yeah kind, but the Jim Jones kind. He says he gets it, because the fans are gullible. He mocks Pope’s injuries and asks what happened to him. He says Angle is at home licking his wounds and asks if Pope will do the same. Pope tells him to hurry up or shut up. Anderson wants him to sack up and face him at Sacrifice and clucks at Pope like a chicken. Pope pimp slaps him and when Anderson gets up he kicks Pope’s leg out. Anderson rips off the eyepatch and digs his thumb into Pope’s eye. Security runs down to break up the assualt and Anderson easily leaves the ring and goes backstage as security looks at Pope.
