Drew McIntyre is in the ring, back from his deportation, and he has something to say. Before he can say anything, he is interrupted by Smackdown General Manager Teddy Long. Teddy has a smile on his face while Drew has a serious look on his face.

Teddy wants to know what Drew is doing here because he remembers Drew being deported. Drew says that two weeks ago his visa expired, but all of his citizenship issues have been resolved. Drew says that what hasn’t been resolved is the relationship between the two of them. Drew calls Teddy ‘Mr. Long’. Drew says that he came to a realization that he has wronged Teddy in so many ways. He says that he knows that it is never too late to say ‘I’m sorry’. Teddy tells Drew that it is never too early to say that you’re a liar. Teddy says that it is obvious. Drew used to have Mr. McMahon in his back pocket, but now that he is not here any more, there will be no more special privileges for Drew. For the first time since he debuted on Smackdown, he will be on the same playing field.

Drew says that he couldn’t agree with Mr. Long more. Drew says that he wanted to let Teddy know that he is personally nominating Teddy for a spot in the Class of 2011 for the WWE Hall of Fame. Drew says that Wrestlemania weekend is going to be huge for Atlanta. He wants Teddy to think about getting his Hall of Fame ring in his home town while Drew McIntyre main events Wrestlemania. Teddy says that Drew got one thing right. Wrestlemania will be a big thing in Hotlanta. Teddy says that he would love nothing more than to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. Teddy tells Drew that the only way he would be World Champion is if he won the Money in the Bank match. Teddy tells Drew that he thinks he can win the match. Drew thanks Mr. Long. Teddy tells Drew that there is one thing that he would like Drew to do. Teddy tells Drew to get on his knees and beg for it. Drew wants to know if Teddy is serious. Teddy tells Drew exactly how it is done and we see the footage from a few weeks ago when Teddy had to beg to keep his job.

Teddy tells Drew if he wants to be the Chosen One so bad, he can get down on his knees. The crowd chants for Drew to get ‘on your knees’ and he thinks about it and then does it. Teddy tells Drew to repeat after him. Teddy tells Drew to say that Teddy is the most handsome, debonair, high class, sharp dressed, and intelligent. Teddy tells Drew that he wants Drew to say that it is an honor and a privilege to have Teddy Long as his boss.

Drew wants to know that he is now in the Money in the Bank Match. Teddy tells Drew that he is not in the match right now. Teddy tells Drew that if he wants to get into the match, he has to earn it. Drew will have to beat a man he doesn’t have a lot of luck with. That man is Kofi Kingston. Teddy wishes Drew luck.

It is time to look back at last week’s Smackdown when Serena showed the video cleared CM Punk of any wrongdoing related to the Undertaker. We also see Punk berate Serena.

Rosa Mendes is in the back doing some step aerobics and CM Punk and Luke Gallows watch for a second before Punk shakes his head and walks away.

it is time for a new Alberto Del Rio video. He is reading a book and he says that he is proudest of his intelligence. It is fostered by his education. He attended the finest universities in Mexico, the United States, and abroad. It is said that knowledge is power. He says that so many have squandered their opportunities at a formal education. Alberto smells some wine and then says that higher education was like a lactating mother and he was a hungry baby consuming as much knowledge as possible. He says that is why he is the product of a superior education.

CM Punk and Luke Gallows are in the ring and Luke says that last week everyone saw a side of the SES that nobody was supposed to see. That was because of one person. Luke says that if Serena has one shred of decency that she will come to the ring.

Serena comes out and she stands on the stage. She says that this has been the hardest week of her life. She tells Punk that he means more to her than being her leader. She says that Punk is her world. Last week, she made a terrible terrible mistake when she allowed herself to get drunk. She made a mistake when she defied Punk. She wants to tell Punk why she did it. She did it to save and protect Punk. Serena enters the ring. She says that Kane is a monster and he is crazy and out of control. Serena says that she did not know what would have happened to Punk if she didn’t do what she did. She begs for forgiveness.

Luke tells Serena that she is the most pathetic person she has ever seen. He says that there is no way that Punk will ever forgive her. Luke says that it makes him sick to think that he ever considered her a sister in the Straight Edge Society. Luke says that he wanted to kick her out of the SES when he found her in the bar and let her wallow in the horribleness of her addiction. Luke says that it is not his decision and it is up to Punk. He says that Punk showed him the big picture that she was the example for women to live the straight edge lifestyle.

Serena says that she is sorry but Luke tells her that if she is really sorry, she will leave the SES.

Punk takes the mic and he tells Luke that the only good thing he said so far tonight is that it is not Luke’s decision, it is his. Punk looks at Luke and tells him that he forgives her. Luke leaves the ring in disgust.

Serena tells Punk that she can never explain what he has done for her. She promises that she will never fail him again.

Punk tells Serena that she better not and then he gestures for her to embrace the Straight Edge Savior. They hug and Punk and Luke stare down from a distance.

Cody Rhodes comes out and he has a mirror on his lower TitanTron video board graphic and he looks at it before he comes to the ring.
