Cody pauses.

“Now… John Cena has signed the contract.
So at SummerSlam, it will be John Cena vs Cody Rhodes in a Last Man Standing Match for the WWE Undisputed Championship.

John, you are one of the reasons I came back to WWE.
I wanted to face the best in this business.
We had a match at WrestleMania… and it was a letdown.
You’ve changed, man.
I know retirement is hard, but it doesn’t have to be this way.
Right now, John, you’re being a fraud.
You used to care about the fans — about what everyone thought.
Since Elimination Chamber, you’ve turned into an asshole.
You’ve disrespected legends in this business — Rey Mysterio, CM Punk, AJ Styles, Damian Priest.
That’s not the John Cena we all loved.
At SummerSlam, I want my wish.
I want to face the old-school John Cena.
Respect. Hustle. Loyalty.
Tell me next week on SmackDown if you grant my wish.”

That’s coward behaviour.
At SummerSlam, inside Hell in a Cell, I will get my revenge.”

You only got me to blame for that bad match.
You’re right—I’m not a bad person, and I do care.
When Damian Priest eliminated me at the Royal Rumble, I was worried I wouldn’t achieve my goal of becoming a 17-time World Heavyweight Champion.
Then Seth Freakin’ Rollins attacked CM Punk at Elimination Chamber.
I took advantage of that situation.
It created an opportunity for me to get the 17th title.
I was an ass to you, Cody, in the lead-up to our match, and I cheated to beat you.
It wasn’t a fair match, and you deserve your rematch.
I was never going to retire with the title.
I’m just scared that people would forget John Cena.
I’m sorry for what I said about Eddie Guerrero.
He was my friend.
I should have had more respect.
Cody, I’m happy to have a Last Man Standing match for the WWE Undisputed Championship.
Let’s see who’s better—the past or the present.

Where’s the blood, sweat and tears?
You think you’re some Hollywood star? No one remembers your films.

I feel like a loser. I feel like I let down every single one of my fans.”
