He thanks everyone who voted for him to be in the match last night. He has some good news and bad news. He asks the crowd what they want first. The crowd is mixed so he goes with the good news - he took Orton out with sweet chin music. The bad news is he doesn’t have the title. He’s not one to talk about his grapefruits, but to hit them you have to have pin point accuracy. So Orton got intentionally disqualified. That mean he gets a rematch and he wants it now.
Vince’s music and he comes out. Reading HBK’s lips, he says, “Imagine that.”
Vince glares at HBK, face to face. He asks the fans if they want to see HBK get a rematch. They go wild. He asks who wants to see HBK WWE Champion. They go wild.
HBK asks what Vince is getting at. Vince says this time HBK will take it to the limit and set record, that’s what HBK wants. But there’s something else HBK wants, and that’s revenge. He sat at home and thought about the man who came this close to putting him out of action forever. Vince has known him since he was 23. He knows what HBK is all about. Yes, he reads the Bible, but deep down there’s a part of him that’s rotten. Vince starts quoting some scripture. Vince harps on him until HBK admits he wants revenge.
HBK says he sat home due to someone else. The next time he leaves this industry it will be when he says so, on his terms. Orton almost did that to him. He wants to hurt him, take him out in the prime of his life. He wants to know if he has his rematch.
Vince tells him to be careful what he wishes for. He says Survivor Series is aptly named. He’s got the title shot. Now, what’s he going to do about it?
HBK almost hits sweet chin music on Vince. His foot is about a foot away from Vince’s face, on purpose. Vince falls to him bum in shock and rolls from the ring. HBK says, off mic, he was that close to kicking his head off.

He wants Horney to stand on his own two feet. The match against Coach tonight is because every grown man should be knocked on his ass at least once in his live. If you’re a McMahon you keep getting back up until they don’t have it in them to knock you down again. You also have to know how to deal with victory and success. As a McMahon you learn how to deal with it because it’s your rightful thing to do, be successful. The other thing he needs to learn. He needs to learn to hate. Really hate from your heart. If you can’t hate you can’t be successful. Vince wants him to show him he can hate. Horney growls and runs out yelling.
