He talks with confidence in how he will defeat me at WrestleMania and break the Streak. But this past Monday, I heard Triple H on Raw and that confidence is starting to fade into uncertainty and soon the uncertainty will turn into despair because as the days grow closer to the apocalypse, an Armageddon of mega-sized proportion, he will realize that the words 'die trying' were more prolific than he thinks. It is the words 'die trying' that will be his epitaph on his tombstone.
"Now I look forward to this Monday night on Raw when I get to tell Triple H all this face to face. Triple H, on 2-21-11, the night that you decided to interrupt me, your fate was decided. Your number was chosen. At WrestleMania, Triple H, you will put all of your accolades, all of your success, all of your fame on the line to become a number, and that number is NINETEEN!"
