"I don't mean to bore anybody with this dirty laundry between …two friends, but now that I've got that out of the way there's two things I want to say to you." CM Punk said, in his trademark snarky tone, as he stood in the ring across from his good friend Paul Heyman, one of his closest friends. "And me and you are gonna come second. The first thing is, I want you to tell Brock Lesnar I'm coming for him. You understand?" Heyman bobs his head "I don't care he's bigger than me, I don't care that he's stronger than me, because He's not better than me. " Punk steps a bit closer to Heyman. You know what I'm gonna say next-I'm the best wrestler on the planet …and you know it better than anybody. And I'm gonna say it straight up to your face because Brock doesn't have the balls to be here today to hear it from me" Punk's pulse quickened and he swallowed nervously hoping brock wasn't. "You know me personally. You know there's no one more sadistic. There's no one more relentless. There's no one more dangerous. So if he's your friend or he's your client you let him know I'm gonna do whatever I have to I will do whatever it takes and I'm going to bring you beast incarnate down." The fans ate this up like catnip as punk continued "And now we can finally address the elephant in the room. What happened last week? Now, because of our past, because no matter how many warnings I got about you, or no matter how many horror stories I heard about how much money you owed somebody, or how many times you stabbed somebody in the back you never did me wrong. So last week, Did Brock Lesnar attacks me on his own, or did brock Lesnar attack me because you saw the writing on the wall after payback? Because I told you I don't want you ringside anymore-It's just business-did you sic brock Lesnar on me –and this is me talking to you Paul" Punk furrowed his brow with a look of finality

For the first time in your life, I want you to tell the truth. Because I'm not them. And don't try to lie to me and don't try to manipulate me like you lie and manipulate to everyone else." Punk pointed into the camera uncannily and hoped Heyman would be honest. "This is me standing here, and I can take it. Tell me it was Tough love tell me you sent brock Lesnar after me and I can accept it, but I just need to know the truth. So for the first time, make me the exception to the rule and don't lie to me. Look me in the eye. I want you to swear on your children you has nothing to do with it or you tell me you did, either way come clean right here, right now and for the first time in your life, Paul Heyman you tell the truth!" Punk stepped forward pleading with his body language while his face showed righteous anger.

Heyman hesitated. Deceiving punk would take all his energy. The man had been around him for years. He knew all his tells. He would just have to do it the way he practiced. "I never wanted it to be this way between us. " Heyman said as he looked up into punk's unforgiving eyes

And since you demand the truth, and because, you would be able to see through me, and because as my best friend, -until something happens you are my best friend- you deserve the truth I will tell you the truth, straight to your face, on my children, I did not know that brock Lesnar would be here last week. "

Punk stared at Heyman pretending to listen. He knew Heyman's tells and his gut told him Heyman was lying. Punk thought to himself, the next words he says will be to turn this on me, and he will probably do it with way too much eye contact. As Heyman continued to speak, as he mentioned Brock Lesnar, Punk saw something in his eyes he wished he hadn't He didn't see defiance, he didn't see subterfuge, he saw pride. Heyman was proud of Lesnar? But how? Punk rubbed his right arm and thought of his father, a man who never once told him he was proud of him. A dull ache sprung up in his chest as the thought passed through him At least he was honest. Punk went back to watching Heyman stretch his jaws, giving his words a motivational tone. Punk simply stared reactionless as Heyman said "And With all Due respect, to be Honest with you, it's your move, punk."

Well it's my move. What is my move? I have to tell him I believe him. Keep this circle of lies and masochism moving right along?

The crowd chanted HTS almost as loudly as they had chanted you lie.

"I'm sorry I doubted you" with five words he made Heyman think he was still clueless. As the camera zoomed in at punk's eyes, he was determined not to react.

AN: here is the link to the video here watch?v=ZCCZduPSxN8

Punk trudged to the gorilla position with a heavy heart. He turned and plodded backstage to find one of those pointless rolling boxes always lying around. He hopped atop one tucked away in the corner and just as he put his headphones on, he heard the sound of footsteps coming. The footsteps slowed to a stop beside him. I swear if this is who I think it is, he is getting a roundhouse to the face.
