We are back and Did You Know that WWE programming airs in a lot of countries in a lot of languages.

It is time for the Battle of the Mic Challenge and all of the rookies are in the ring. Matt reminds them about the immunity standings. Here are the current standings

Johnny Curtis: 5 Points
Derrick Bateman: 3 Points
Jacob Novak: 1 Point
Byron Saxton: 1 Point
Brodus Clay: 0 Points
Conor O’Brian: 0 Points

Johnny Curtis goes first and he will be ‘battling’ with Brodus Clay. Brodus tells Johnny that when he looks at him, all he can think of is the sounds that Johnny made when he got thrown through a table. Brodus says that was hilarious.

Johnny responds and says that he was thinking about how funny it was when he punched Brodus in the mouth and Johnny slugs Brodus in the mouth. Brodus has to be held back by the rookies.

The winner, according to the WWE Universe in the building is Johnny Curtis.

The next challenge is Derrick Bateman and Byron Saxton.

Bateman goes first and he introduces everyone to the voice that single handedly destroyed ECW. He talks about the love child of Carlton Banks and an uglier shorter Carlton Banks.

Byron Saxton says that the reality is that when you look in the mirror, he is always better than Derrick.

The winner of this round is Derrick Bateman.

Jacob Novak and Conor O’Brian are the final pairing.

Jacob says that Conor thinks he is a rat. He says that Conor is ugly, scares the girls, and stinks.

Conor responds by commenting on Jacob’s nose. He says that Novak will need two entrances, one for him and one for his nose.

The winner of this round is Conor O’Brian.

It is time for them to insult the other two finalists.

Johnny Curtis says that he likes Derrick but he disses himself by walking out with that haircut. He says that Derrick spends $250 per week on his perm. Johnny tells Conor that he has nothing bad to say about him because he likes rats.

Derrick Bateman is next and he tells Johnny that he likes his moves and style, but thinks that he is a mustache away from being on To Catch a Predator. He says that Conor has a lot in common with Conan O’Brien but he is not popular or funny.

Conor goes last and he tells Yo Mama jokes to Derrick. He tells Johnny that he is so stupid that he sits on the tv to watch the couch.

The winner of this challenge and four points is Conor O’Brian.
