He stands in front of everyone tonight and he says that he is working in the company with the best wrestlers on the planet. Alberto says that he said wrestlers because that is what we are. He says that he is not a f***ing sports entertainer, he is a wrestler. To be the best, you have to beat the best and that is why he is here. It will be an honor to be in the ring with Christopher Daniels.
Because you are so amazing, he is going to tell you the real reason why he came here. He wants a shot at the most amazing title that wrestling has to offer. The Ring of Honor World Title.
