ECW Champion John Morrison def. CM Punk
SAN JOSE, Calif. -- One swift kick to the knee and John Morrison had locked up his first win under his true name. CM Punk fell victim to the ECW Champion's vicious style as Morrison got the three-count and retained his gold.
"The problem with Punk and the straightedge lifestyle is that he doesn't experience the things that John Morrison experiences," the champion explained.
CM Punk seemed to be a man in tune with destiny, simply waiting for his moment at The Great American Bash. Like his first championship opportunity against Morrison at Vengeance: Night of Champions, however, this moment was denied.
"CM Punk playing Skee-Ball at Chuck E. Cheese is never going to reach the intellectual heights and experience the life that John Morrison experiences and, therefore, he will never know what to do in the ring against John Morrison," said the ECW Champion.
Just as CM Punk is a Superstar whose principal morals revolve upon abstaining, Morrison is a man chiseled out of knowledge and understanding.
"William Blake once said the road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom," Morrison said. "And that's where I dwell. John Morrison is enlightened."
Morrison may sooner be referred to as arrogant than enlightened; however, he does know something nobody else knows. He is the only man who can call himself the ECW Champion. And it does not appear that CM Punk can do anything about it.
"CM Punk, I suggest cashing in your tickets at Chuck E. Cheese for a replica ECW Championship because that's the closest you're ever going to get to the gates of paradise."
