He says that his client is looking to conquer him at Summerslam. His client is on the offensive. Brock isn't just gonna F5 and pin Cena, he is going to victimize him.

Cena says he sick of Heyman's crap and he wants to talk to him real. Cena says that Heyman said the word passion, and even Heyman knows what that is. He says that the WWE Universe will chant ECW and the ones that fought along side Heyman, it put a smile on his face. Cena says that he and Heyman both share the passion, and the WWE is his life. Cena says he works his ass off because he loves this place and has passion for the title. Cena says that Brock has no passion but for himself. Cena says what separates him from Lesnar, is that he has heart. Cena says he will walk out of Summerslam as champion. Cesaro now makes his way out and embraces Heyman with a hug.
Cesaro says that even though he and Heyman have gone their separate ways, he won't let Cena talk to his friend that way. Cesaro calls Cena a walking billboard.
