Bruce told a story about how Paul Heyman had pitched for Punk to win the match, eliminating The Big Show in 10 seconds via submission before making Bobby Lashley submit to become the new ECW champion.

“The more Heyman pushed, the more Vince pushed back,” said Bruce, and Punk ended up being the first man to be eliminated following a Five-Star Frog Splash from RVD.
