The crowd calms down after hearing what Ace just said when all of a sudden Triple H's music plays over the PA system.
Out walks Triple H as he stops at the top of the ramp.


With a very serious look on his face, Triple H pulls a mic. from his jacket and begins to speak...
Triple H: I am out here to give the fans, the wrestlers in the back and especially the soon to be ex "World Wide Champion" Ace a fair warning.
From this point on...I will be as vicious as I can be.


And come "Beat Down", I will walk into that title match with three objectives.
The first is to survive the match without doing sever damage to my body or sever damage to my career.

Secondly, I will take Ace out of the game completely.
That means I'm going to do anything and everything...

I'm gonna use every weapon I can get my hands on including my sledgehammer...You want pain Ace?
At "Beat Down" I'm gonna give more pain than you can handle.
Finally, when I have your broken and beaten body laying in a pool of your own blood...
I will pick your carcas up and pedigree your ass in the middle of my ring...
And only then will I pin your ass and become the NEW "World Wide Champion".

Triple H begins to walk back to his locker room but stops and walks back to the top of the ramp.


As he stands there looking out into the crowd.
He notices half of the fans are cheering and half are booing.
Triple H then looks straight into the camera and begins to speak again...

Triple H: Ace, you think I'm not ready?
I hate to break it to ya but I've been ready for this since day one...
You think you intimidate me?


I fear no one and I fear nothing including your dumb ass...
You think you are bigger than me?
Are you hallucinating cause I think it's easy to see that every muscle in my body...And I mean EVERY muscle is bigger than you.
You really need to learn some card games cause maybe then you would know that not always is the Ace the best card.
Like Russian Bank, The King Is The Best Card And The Ace is the worst.
But this ain't a card game....It's Wrestling, and this ring is my world.


And when you enter my world, you will find out that I Am Not Only The Game...
But I Am Also The King...
And soon to be "World Wide Champion".

Triple H tosses his mic. down and walks back to his locker room as his music plays.
