00:00:00You came to me, you came to me, you came to me, you came to me, you came to me, you came
00:00:27You came to me, in a dream last night, you were standing in a familiar light
00:00:44One minute here, but the next you were gone, I thought you could stay, but I was so wrong
00:01:02The end is here, the game is over, no more pretending, no more, no more
00:01:24The end is here, the end is here, the end is here, the end is here
00:01:43The end is here
00:02:01It's my life in the box, in front of me, taking charge, aim for arms, this is all of me
00:02:06You walk by, and you see me laying face down
00:02:13Your head by the door, it's your time
00:02:44Here he is, the champion of the federation!
00:02:47A battered and bruised Kurt Angle is coming on stage along with the new champions of the double, Austria and Christian!
00:02:55Come on JR! You have to appreciate the fact that he is surviving in the cage!
00:03:02Ladies and gentlemen, welcome the world champion, Kurt Angle, and the new champions of the double, Austria and Christian!
00:03:14Armageddon has taken its victims, 3TX and Rakiši are in the hospital.
00:03:19As we heard, Rakiši has a broken leg, and 3TX is lying in the lower part of the cage,
00:03:27where he couldn't even get up to tie his shoes.
00:03:30Angle is very lucky that he is still on his feet.
00:03:34It seems that Angle is doing pretty well.
00:03:37I'm telling you again, the blood is in the hands of Mick Foley.
00:03:45Will Mick Foley give up the bet as the champion tonight?
00:03:53How many stitches does Angle have?
00:03:58It's a miracle that he can stand upright.
00:04:02So, how was your year?
00:04:11I ask you this, because there are 3 things that you can take for 100% sure before the holidays.
00:04:23Christmas is on the 25th of December.
00:04:29Elvis Presley is still dead.
00:04:33And your Olympic hero, along with your friends Austria and Christian,
00:04:39is at the end of his strongest year as the only man in the history of the World Federation.
00:04:46That's right, that's right.
00:04:49Last night in Armageddon, Austria and Christian won the title for the 4th time this year.
00:05:00They really broke them.
00:05:02An exceptional achievement, guys.
00:05:06Kurt, not to be outdone, my friend, but last night in Armageddon you really broke them.
00:05:12Yes, and when the gun went down, you really were the champion of the Federation.
00:05:21Thank you, guys, but it wasn't easy.
00:05:25Last night there was a real war.
00:05:29No doubt.
00:05:31That's right.
00:05:33I continue to experience the blows with you in my head.
00:05:37I was thrown face first into the stomach cage.
00:05:42It was horrible.
00:05:44And I witnessed one of the most brutal casualties that I have ever witnessed.
00:05:51You're right.
00:05:53I saw my feet fly through the air.
00:05:58I saw my head fall to the ground.
00:06:02I saw my hands fly through the air.
00:06:07And then there was a deafening shake.
00:06:13I saw my triceps writhing in pain.
00:06:18Because of the new injuries in his already injured back.
00:06:22He was even writhing.
00:06:24And finally I saw my arm.
00:06:28I saw my arm.
00:06:32Laying on top of his body on the cliff,
00:06:35as the referee counted to three.
00:06:38One, two, three.
00:06:41It's true, indeed.
00:06:43What an unbelievable victory in Armageddon for Kurt!
00:06:47That's all.
00:06:49A Christmas miracle.
00:06:51It was a miracle indeed!
00:06:53Your Olympic hero overcame, despite the negative Korean omen.
00:06:58Despite Mick Foley's sadistic rules.
00:07:01That's how it is. Everything was against him.
00:07:04And on the far side, on the triple A,
00:07:07Rahishi,
00:07:09Rakeshi,
00:07:11Steve Austin.
00:07:13Unbelievable.
00:07:19The other striker,
00:07:22even more unbelievable.
00:07:24And the rooster,
00:07:27brilliantly unbelievable.
00:07:30And he remains the world champion.
00:07:36Miracles are good for nothing.
00:07:38Don't you think he has a chance?
00:07:40I don't think so.
00:07:42What is wrong with you people?
00:07:46Don't embarrass me, dear Olympians.
00:07:49What can I do to earn your respect?
00:07:53Show some respect to him.
00:07:55First, you can kiss him.
00:07:57That was the most brutal match of your life.
00:08:00Now he will pay.
00:08:01Six men in one hellish cage.
00:08:03Maybe he won't pay.
00:08:04But I was the champion.
00:08:06I was above all of them.
00:08:11I'm sorry to say this,
00:08:13but you have to understand something.
00:08:16Your champion is not Grobaria.
00:08:19And I want you to remember that.
00:08:21Your champion is not Steve Austin.
00:08:24What's his name?
00:08:26He can call himself whatever he wants.
00:08:29But you know what?
00:08:31He is not your champion.
00:08:34You know that.
00:08:41Wait!
00:08:44Here he is, the rock.
00:08:46He is also bruised,
00:08:48but his head...
00:08:53works well, even though there are bruises.
00:08:55How the rock and Kurt Angle are in the right position
00:08:58is a real miracle for me.
00:09:00I don't remember watching a similar match
00:09:02as the Armageddon night.
00:09:04Six of the biggest superstars of the federation
00:09:07tried to get on the short piece.
00:09:09And they succeeded.
00:09:11Kurt Angle really smashed the rock
00:09:13in the Armageddon cage,
00:09:15but it was shown to me that there were certain circumstances
00:09:18that helped him to get out of it.
00:09:22Wait a minute, there is no short piece for Kurt.
00:09:25Why did the rock get out anyway?
00:09:32Because the rock wanted to clarify some details.
00:09:38And his head is quite broken.
00:09:40No doubt.
00:09:41The rock was bleeding like a piglet.
00:09:45The face of the rock was a bloody piglet.
00:09:52Look how he is holding on to the ribs.
00:09:59I'm sure he is in pain,
00:10:01and this is also shown to me.
00:10:06They have trained each other well.
00:10:10You see that Kurt is not afraid.
00:10:13Kurt Angle, the rock is ready to respect you
00:10:16from here to the end of the world,
00:10:18because after the night Armageddon match
00:10:20you are still a champion.
00:10:25Support him, he deserves it.
00:10:29At night the rock goes to hell and back.
00:10:33To hell and back.
00:10:41But frankly speaking,
00:10:43the rock did not get out to talk about the night.
00:10:46The rock is here to talk about this evening.
00:10:50This evening?
00:10:51The rock should rest this evening?
00:10:53That's a good idea.
00:10:55The rock will talk about this evening,
00:10:57and since I have some holidays ahead,
00:11:00presents will be given out.
00:11:02Oh no.
00:11:03The rock is going to give you three things.
00:11:09Will you be patient?
00:11:13I doubt they will be nice.
00:11:23The rock will give out presents.
00:11:26Three things for you.
00:11:27First, the rock will give you milk.
00:11:29Second, the ships.
00:11:31Third, a big kick for all time.
00:11:35I knew it wouldn't be nice.
00:11:42Three things only against the championship title.
00:11:47What?
00:11:48The rock challenges Kurt Angle.
00:11:51Wait a minute, sir.
00:11:55I'd love to fight you this evening right here.
00:11:58In Knoxville.
00:11:59Knoxville?
00:12:00We're in Memphis.
00:12:03What the hell?
00:12:04I'm sorry, man.
00:12:05Memphis?
00:12:06It doesn't matter.
00:12:10I'd love to fight you, rock.
00:12:14But I'm not 100% ready.
00:12:17What about the rock?
00:12:18It would be unfair to all my fans here and around the world.
00:12:24In Memphis, if I were to make you the champion,
00:12:27I'd be 100% ready.
00:12:30But I'll tell you what.
00:12:32Being that my friends, the rock and Christian, are here,
00:12:37and we're in the mood to give out presents,
00:12:40why don't you bring two of your friends
00:12:43and let's have a tough match.
00:12:47A match of your choice, rock.
00:12:49I'm sure that Christian and I will be at your disposal.
00:12:54Wait, hold on a second, Kurt.
00:12:57I think you're forgetting something.
00:12:59This joke that you brought up doesn't have any friends.
00:13:04It's like the old song goes,
00:13:08he is the rock, he is an island.
00:13:13So, rock, since you're so eager for a fight
00:13:16and you don't have friends,
00:13:18why don't you just do a three-meter match with a handicap?
00:13:22You'd like that, wouldn't you?
00:13:24What are you going to say, rock?
00:13:27What, you don't have friends?
00:13:33Wait a second.
00:13:35These are Ray and Dion.
00:13:37These are the damn Dudleys.
00:13:39What are you doing here?
00:13:44The damn Dudleys joined the rock.
00:13:49Does that mean that they are friends of the rock?
00:13:53The two Dudleys lost the title to Christian Armageddon.
00:13:57They pretended to be friends of the censors,
00:13:59but remember what they did to them.
00:14:06Since the two Dudleys just joined the rock,
00:14:10and since you just said on the rock
00:14:13that you like the match of your choice...
00:14:17Is that what they said?
00:14:19But you see...
00:14:26Oh, God, listen to these people down there.
00:14:29They're trying to suggest something.
00:14:31They don't know what's going to happen.
00:14:34They don't know what's going to happen.
00:14:40Since you just said on the rock
00:14:42that you like the match of your choice,
00:14:44the match that you like on the rock
00:14:46doesn't include titles,
00:14:48it includes masses.
00:14:50Masses.
00:14:53It includes testicles.
00:14:56Testicles?
00:14:58What kind of match is that?
00:15:00And tables.
00:15:02Tables and masses. What kind of match is that, JR?
00:15:05I have no idea.
00:15:06Since you don't have any tables at all...
00:15:09What?
00:15:11And we have masses,
00:15:14we're going to forget about the three principles
00:15:17and we're going to introduce a new type of match.
00:15:19A team match with tables and masses.
00:15:22That's something new.
00:15:24A team match with tables and masses.
00:15:28All right.
00:15:30That's just fine by me.
00:15:33If that's what you want.
00:15:35But there's one thing I know for sure.
00:15:39The Dodgers are not your friends.
00:15:42They're just jealous
00:15:44because your Christian friends did a good job last night
00:15:47and they couldn't.
00:15:49Ah, they're jealous.
00:15:50But if that's the match you want,
00:15:53you should see it
00:15:55because I know one thing for sure.
00:15:57My three principles can be won in any game.
00:16:01And that is true.
00:16:03But we're not playing cards here.
00:16:06The three principles against the new type of match.
00:16:09Is that really true, Kurt Angle?
00:16:11It's damn true.
00:16:12It's a multiple.
00:16:14Yes, man!
00:16:25Do you realize what the Rock has prepared for me?
00:16:30The Rock will tell you something.
00:16:34Listen carefully.
00:16:36Before we start tonight's match,
00:16:38the Rock would like to offer you a second option.
00:16:46Wait a minute.
00:16:48That's not good.
00:16:50The Rock and the Dodgers will climb this ramp.
00:16:54This is Kurt.
00:16:56They're going down.
00:16:58Attention.
00:17:01And they're going to wipe out all of Memphis.
00:17:04Wait a minute, Kurt.
00:17:05It's not 100% ready.
00:17:07The Rock and the Dodgers threw themselves
00:17:09on the champions of doubles and the champions of the federation.
00:17:13Is this the match?
00:17:14Are these the balls?
00:17:16What is this, JR?
00:17:18I don't see any masses, let alone balls.
00:17:22What a shot!
00:17:24Run, Kurt. You're not 100% ready.
00:17:27I didn't hit the Rock.
00:17:29Oh, no!
00:17:30The Rock is calling for the Rock,
00:17:32but the champions of doubles are on their way.
00:17:35This is disgusting.
00:17:37Disrespectful.
00:17:41The most important thing is that we're going to watch
00:17:43a team match.
00:17:44Balls and masses.
00:17:46Didn't you hear what Kurt said?
00:17:49His principles can win in every single match.
00:17:55But the question remains,
00:17:57will Mick Foley give up tonight?
00:18:04Yes.
00:18:05Everybody's talking about it.
00:18:07Do you think Foley will give up after tonight's match?
00:18:11Do I think he will give up?
00:18:14You heard what Foley said, right?
00:18:17He said that if anybody is seriously injured in the cage,
00:18:21he will give up.
00:18:23That's why I'm here tonight.
00:18:25Because my own Z3TX is in the gypsum while we're talking.
00:18:29He's in a bad way because he has a broken ankle.
00:18:34Rakiši.
00:18:36Because of his involvement in the match,
00:18:38the cage has a broken ankle.
00:18:41Will Foley give up?
00:18:43Let me tell you,
00:18:44if Foley doesn't give up voluntarily,
00:18:47I will force him to do so.
00:18:52Unrepeatedly, Billy Gunn is shining like a star.
00:18:56Chris Benoit lost the Intercontinental title last night.
00:19:00But tonight, Billy Gunn looks much more focused.
00:19:04And anyone who faces Chris Benoit
00:19:06should be at the top of their game.
00:19:10You're right.
00:19:11Because Benoit is always focused.
00:19:15He eats, drinks, sleeps,
00:19:17with a lot of technical moves.
00:19:19He's just the best.
00:19:21He'll be a star for sure.
00:19:24Billy Gunn...
00:19:26is very brutal against Chris Benoit,
00:19:29throwing him on the floor.
00:19:31Unrepeatable punches,
00:19:33like a new Intercontinental champion.
00:19:35This match is about the title.
00:19:37Wait a minute.
00:19:39Look, look.
00:19:40I think he's letting him fall on his head.
00:19:42So he can take out his shoulder.
00:19:45On Saturday at 5 p.m.
00:19:47Benoit lost the Intercontinental title
00:19:50to Unrepeatable.
00:19:53Billy Gunn is very upset
00:19:55because of his shoulder injury.
00:19:57But he thinks he wants everyone to suffer the same way.
00:20:00Just like Mick Foley.
00:20:02I don't know if Mick will give up.
00:20:05He won't give up.
00:20:08There's nothing final yet,
00:20:10even though Mr. McMahon
00:20:12thinks it's almost a done deal.
00:20:14That's enough for me.
00:20:15If Mr. McMahon says Foley won't give up,
00:20:18he'll force him to give up.
00:20:22The hellish cage is taking its victims.
00:20:24The three Hicks and the Redkiss are in the hospital.
00:20:26And he's with Pucan Dallagerre.
00:20:29An attempt to suffocate.
00:20:31Billy Gunn got up before the countdown.
00:20:34Grobari and Ledenia wanted to rest this evening.
00:20:37The three Hicks and the Redkiss are leaving
00:20:39because they're both in the hospital.
00:20:43I don't even know where Dallagerre is,
00:20:45but I've heard he shouldn't be with Pucan.
00:20:47I know that too.
00:20:48Benoit's suplex.
00:20:50Another attempt to suffocate.
00:20:52And Billy Gunn is up again.
00:20:55I think it's completely wrong,
00:20:57but Scalata and Kurt Angle will take part
00:20:59in a team match with Masi,
00:21:01Dudley and Christian.
00:21:03I don't think anybody trusts Latina.
00:21:07I don't think anybody trusts Latina.
00:21:11And he blew it all off
00:21:12when he was in China
00:21:14for the ninth time in a row.
00:21:17In Bangkok?
00:21:20Why do you call it that?
00:21:22That's what Latina calls it.
00:21:24Benoit's beautiful suplex
00:21:26and Billy Gunn fell right on his back.
00:21:30What? What did he do?
00:21:32What are you doing?
00:21:35Look at this.
00:21:36Eddie Guerrero lifts the champion's belt.
00:21:39How do you know that?
00:21:41It's an unrepeatable suplex.
00:21:43I know because I've seen it.
00:21:46Unrepeatable for Billy Gunn.
00:21:48A powerful blow to the champion's belt
00:21:50on Benoit's head.
00:21:52If the referee hadn't been watching,
00:21:54this would have been the end.
00:21:56He's such a liar, Billy Gunn.
00:21:58Unrepeatable for Bonn.
00:21:59Another blow to Eddie Guerrero.
00:22:01Another blow to the champion's belt.
00:22:03Benoit had plenty of time
00:22:05to thank Eddie Guerrero.
00:22:07Thank God.
00:22:08The truth is coming out.
00:22:10This is going to be the pro-glory.
00:22:14Billy made the pro-glory.
00:22:17This should be the end.
00:22:19Here's the champion's belt.
00:22:21Eddie Guerrero throws himself up.
00:22:23The referee announces disqualification.
00:22:26I think that was just an attempt
00:22:28to make fun of the Latina nation.
00:22:30Eddie is going to make up for his mistake.
00:22:33He made up for it in front of Billy Gunn's gun.
00:22:36Oh no.
00:22:39Benoit made up for it.
00:22:41No, don't do it.
00:22:43No, give it to him.
00:22:45Benoit, unrepeatable for him,
00:22:47makes him cross his arms.
00:22:49He closes the grip.
00:22:51It doesn't matter for the title.
00:22:54Come on, let him go.
00:22:57And now what?
00:22:58The match is over.
00:22:59Unrepeatable victory because of disqualification.
00:23:01And now what?
00:23:03Benoit loves this moment.
00:23:05Look at his physiognomy.
00:23:07He's smiling, he's definitely satisfied.

00:23:48in this match with Massi.
00:23:50Tell me, isn't he showing a lot of courage
00:23:52on this man's side?
00:23:54Even just the fact that he accepted the match.
00:23:57Let me tell you where we will host him
00:23:59in the next few weeks.
00:24:01First we will be in Little Rock,
00:24:03then we will go to North Carolina
00:24:05and at the end of the month
00:24:07we will visit Nashville, Tennessee.
00:24:10And I will be in Little Rock.
00:24:13Tomorrow night at VGR.
00:24:16I will also be there.
00:24:18I think Gurtengel
00:24:22doesn't have a special desire
00:24:24to start this match.
00:24:26And I fully understand that.
00:24:28I don't know what the Rock and Gurtengel
00:24:30have in common.
00:24:32From my point of view,
00:24:34this match is not a good idea.
00:24:36Both of them are like bees.
00:24:38They are freezing and resting.
00:24:40And Rakiša and 3DX are in the hospital
00:24:42after the night match in the hospital.
00:24:44As we know, both of them
00:24:46have very serious injuries.
00:24:48This match is on the cards of their balls.
00:24:52Dion and Christian are left in the ring.
00:24:56The match starts.
00:24:58As you know, according to the rules,
00:25:00the smoke is not important here.
00:25:02And the match can't be stopped,
00:25:04even with a refusal.
00:25:06The victory can only be achieved
00:25:08when one team breaks the balance
00:25:10with some of the opponents.
00:25:12I think we didn't pay much attention
00:25:14to the big fight last night.
00:25:16They managed to surprise everyone.
00:25:18They are real killers.
00:25:20They can blow your brain out
00:25:22from the fight if you don't pay attention.
00:25:24They beat the Austrians
00:25:26and the Dudleys.
00:25:28I personally think that the Dudleys
00:25:30will keep the championship title
00:25:32of Armageddon.
00:25:34What a high lift of the Bavarians.
00:25:36And the Austrians are shaking their asses.
00:25:38I thought, oh no,
00:25:40the rock is coming in and starting
00:25:42to smear the Austrians.
00:25:46The rock made a Samoan shaking.
00:25:48He is bending his leg.
00:25:50Struve thinks that the rock
00:25:52is a little less than usual,
00:25:54and his body is burning with pain.
00:25:56His brain is not working well.
00:25:58Why is he trying to smash it?
00:26:00This is a match with masses.
00:26:02Exactly.
00:26:04But this is his rock's instinct.
00:26:06He got used to it.
00:26:08Last night at Armageddon,
00:26:10when the title was one arm away
00:26:12from the rock,
00:26:14Lenin's Steve Austin made him
00:26:16a shield from which Kurt Angle
00:26:18thanks him.
00:26:20So now you are trying
00:26:22to break his arm.
00:26:24I've been a professionalist for 15 years.
00:26:26For 6 years.
00:26:28For 9 years.
00:26:30I've been through a lot.
00:26:32I've been through thousands of injuries.
00:26:34There is always danger.
00:26:36There is always fear.
00:26:38Don't be a clown.
00:26:40Please don't do this at home.
00:26:42Please don't do this at home
00:26:44and leave the danger to us.
00:26:52The rock is trying to stop the change.
00:26:54The rock is entering the ring.
00:26:56Kurt Angle as well.
00:26:58The rock is reaching its last strength reserves
00:27:00and Kurt is starting to smear.
00:27:02That's exactly what the rock wanted.
00:27:04That was his goal.
00:27:06Kurt Angle just to get it.
00:27:08What a beautiful suplex.
00:27:10Look at the rock.
00:27:12He is like an hurricane.
00:27:14Christian's back.
00:27:16Don't worry.
00:27:18He is 100% ready.
00:27:20He is 100% ready.
00:27:22The rock is breaking.
00:27:24The rock is breaking.
00:27:26Memphis Tennessee.
00:27:30Where will he find the strength for this rock?
00:27:32Pippo Dabo.
00:27:34The most electrifying blow
00:27:36in the entertainment sport.
00:27:38Immediately after Armageddon.
00:27:40The rock is breaking.
00:27:42Be careful.
00:27:44Go back to the ring for God's sake.
00:27:46Go back to the ring.
00:27:48The rock is breaking.
00:27:54The judge Earl Hammer is on his own.
00:27:56But look what's going on up there.
00:27:58Look where Dion is.
00:28:00Dion is putting his head
00:28:02in Christian's weakness.
00:28:04I recognize this look in Ray's eyes.
00:28:06Wait a minute.
00:28:08Now he is going to...
00:28:10Now he is going to challenge...
00:28:12Give him the mass.
00:28:14This is a match with mass.
00:28:16They are going for the mass.
00:28:18Ray is going for the mass.
00:28:20Ray is going for the mass.
00:28:22Ray is going for the mass.
00:28:24Ray is going for the mass.
00:28:26Ray is going for the mass.
00:28:28There is one in the ring.
00:28:30Dion has already taken one.
00:28:32There are two masses in the ring.
00:28:34Why are there two masses?
00:28:36I don't know but things don't look
00:28:38good for Christian.
00:28:40His position is very critical.
00:28:42The rock is breaking.
00:28:44The rock is breaking.
00:28:46The rock is breaking.
00:28:48This is going to be the end.
00:28:50What is the end?
00:28:52Oh my God!
00:28:54Christian is on the shoulders of Ray.
00:28:56Kurt Angle is taking the mass.
00:28:58No. I don't have the mass.
00:29:00Kurt Angle is taking the mass.
00:29:02This was an intelligent move.
00:29:04The match continues.
00:29:06It's not over.
00:29:08It's not over.
00:29:10The match continues.
00:29:12Be careful, Kurt.
00:29:16No.
00:29:18Angle manages to counterattack.
00:29:20Ray Dudley is trying to get
00:29:22out of the grip.
00:29:24Angle lifts him into the air.
00:29:26The rock is taking the mass.
00:29:28The rock is taking the mass.
00:29:30Ray Dudley's head is just
00:29:32hanging on the mass.
00:29:34But the rock had taken enough
00:29:36to save him from breaking.
00:29:38The match continues.
00:29:40Don't break his head.
00:29:42Look at how he is
00:29:44walking on the mass.
00:29:46He should be punished
00:29:48for partial breaking.
00:29:50The rock is taking the mass.
00:29:52The rock is taking the mass.
00:29:54The rock is taking the mass.
00:29:56The rock is taking the mass.
00:29:58The rock is taking the mass.
00:30:00The rock is taking the mass.
00:30:02This is the end.
00:30:04Oh no!
00:30:06Dudley has won.
00:30:08This is not the end.
00:30:10Both Dudleys want more wood.
00:30:12Christian, no!
00:30:14Oh my God,
00:30:16what a powerful jump!
00:30:18Kurt Angle took his belt
00:30:20and covered his ears.
00:30:22Run, champion!
00:30:24Angle leaves his friends
00:30:26Austria and Christian.
00:30:36Angle leaves his friends
00:30:38Austria and Christian.
00:30:40Angle leaves his friends
00:30:42Austria and Christian.
00:30:44Angle leaves his friends
00:30:46Austria and Christian.
00:30:48Angle leaves his friends
00:30:50Austria and Christian.
00:30:52Angle leaves his friends
00:30:54Austria and Christian.
00:30:56Angle leaves his friends
00:30:58Austria and Christian.
00:31:00Angle leaves his friends
00:31:02Austria and Christian.
00:31:04Triple pain
00:31:06Triple pain
00:31:08Triple pain
00:31:10Cripple
00:31:12Mitral
00:31:14Bullet
00:31:32China, before Mao Zedong and Yao Tse-Tung.
00:31:36And all these stones, unfortunately, are in Mick Foley's garden.
00:31:40It's time. He has to resign.
00:31:45You two wrote the book, College in Chaos.
00:31:48Why don't you stand up for him?
00:31:51Well, okay, he's not a bad writer.
00:31:54Now he's going to be bombarded with criticism.
00:31:57I think he's worried about the condition of his superstars.
00:32:01A lot of things have changed since my last birthday.
00:32:05When I came into business,
00:32:08a divorce from my wife, Linda McMahon,
00:32:12who's a foreign flight, Linda McMahon,
00:32:16a lot has changed.
00:32:20A lot has changed.
00:32:25And quite frankly, some of them got better,
00:32:28some not.
00:32:31But before I take care of my official career,
00:32:34I would like to take this opportunity
00:32:37to thank each and every one of you
00:32:40for your patience each and every one of you
00:32:43for your heartfelt sympathy for me
00:32:46in this crisis time in my life.
00:32:50Thank you, God bless you.
00:32:55Indeed, divorce is a traumatic thing.
00:33:00And this is a traumatic time in my life.
00:33:06After all, considering my sensitivity,
00:33:10yes, billionaires have feelings too.
00:33:18Yes, diga, molete se.
00:33:23And quite frankly,
00:33:26as I come before you today,
00:33:29I must say that I am not necessarily proud
00:33:32of this organization.
00:33:35I never thought I would say that.
00:33:38I'm not proud of the World Wrestling Federation
00:33:41at this moment.
00:33:44Or at least I'm not proud
00:33:47of its current commissioner.
00:33:51Because...
00:33:54Here we go.
00:33:59Now this is going to be scary.
00:34:02Please, don't be rude.
00:34:05He's in a delicate position.
00:34:11His wife is a saint.
00:34:14I'm not proud of the chairman
00:34:17who forced six of the superstars
00:34:20to take part in a match
00:34:23against their own will.
00:34:26I don't know if that's true.
00:34:29I'm not proud of the chairman
00:34:32who doesn't have any sympathy
00:34:35for my son-in-law, Treta Hicks,
00:34:38who is lying in a cast in a hospital.
00:34:41I'm not proud of the chairman
00:34:44who doesn't have any sympathy
00:34:47for Rakiši.
00:34:53Rakiši fell horribly.
00:34:56I'm not proud of the chairman
00:34:59who said that this is exactly what will happen.
00:35:02That's true.
00:35:04I'm not proud of the chairman
00:35:07who doesn't have any sympathy
00:35:10for the superstars of the Federation.
00:35:13And neither of you are proud of him.
00:35:16Here we can argue
00:35:19who is one of the most suffering people.
00:35:22And that's why it's time...
00:35:25It's time for change.
00:35:28It's time for someone
00:35:31to come out here
00:35:34and do what he should do.
00:35:37It's time for Chairman Foley
00:35:40to walk in here in front of me
00:35:43and in front of all of you
00:35:46and put all of his presidency
00:35:49immediately.
00:35:52Put it! It's good for him.
00:35:55What are you waiting for?
00:35:58It's time for change.
00:36:01Come on, Mick Foley, I know you can hear me.
00:36:04Get your fat ass here and give up.
00:36:07He should have heard that already.
00:36:10How disrespectful can he be?
00:36:13Don't force me to get you on stage.
00:36:16He's obviously not going to do it.
00:36:19Here he is, Mick Foley.
00:36:22Oh, look at him.
00:36:25Is this how a chairman of a corporation
00:36:28that operates with billions of dollars should look like?
00:36:31Look at his haircut.
00:36:34And this beard.
00:36:43Aren't they cute?
00:36:46And so obedient.
00:36:53What happened to them?
00:36:56Hey, cleaner.
00:36:59Do you know what's going on?
00:37:02Mick.
00:37:05You've always kept your word.
00:37:08Not always.
00:37:11We've not always seen eye to eye.
00:37:14But you've been a man of your word.
00:37:17And that's why I'm here.
00:37:21And that's why, hold my cane.
00:37:27That's why, Mick Foley,
00:37:31I expect you
00:37:35to live up to your word.
00:37:39That's it.
00:37:42It's time. Vince is asking him to sign the leave.
00:37:50No, there's no signature.
00:37:54There's no such thing as a judicial leave.
00:37:58It's just a straightforward resignation.
00:38:01Mick Foley.
00:38:07Give me back my cane before I desculpate you.
00:38:10Here's the chemical.
00:38:13The fans don't want you to sign it.
00:38:16Do the right thing, Foley.
00:38:19You're a man of your word.
00:38:22Shut up.
00:38:25Mick, don't listen to them.
00:38:28Listen to your conscience.
00:38:31You're a man of your word, Mick Foley.
00:38:34You're an honorable man, Mick Foley.
00:38:37Just sign it.
00:38:40Just sign it, Foley.
00:38:50Think about it.
00:38:54Dewey and Noel are watching you.
00:38:57They want their dad to come home.
00:39:03Get rid of those fans. They don't give a damn about you.
00:39:06Against Mr. McMahon.
00:39:09Come on, Mick.
00:39:14Sign it, Mick.
00:39:24Sign it.
00:39:28Sign it.
00:39:32Sign it, Mick.
00:39:37I told you to sign it.
00:39:55I think I've heard enough of you, Vince.
00:39:58I've heard enough of you, Vince.
00:40:04I listened to everything you said.
00:40:09And it's all true.
00:40:15That's why I'm forced.
00:40:18Yeah, Vince.
00:40:21I may sign the letter of resignation.
00:40:25But I may not do it.
00:40:28Wait a minute. What's wrong with you?
00:40:31But if I do it,
00:40:34if I do it,
00:40:37there's one thing I'd like you to do before that.
00:40:40One thing I'd like you to do before that.
00:40:43One thing I'd like you to do before that.
00:40:49What the hell is that?
00:40:52I'm William Regal.
00:40:55What does a European champion want?
00:40:58I don't understand.
00:41:01I don't understand.
00:41:22What's going on?
00:41:25What's going on?
00:41:28What's going on?
00:41:31The barbaric things that are going on in this federation
00:41:34The barbaric things that are going on in this federation
00:41:37are absolutely disgusting.
00:41:40I have to agree with the fact that Mr. McMahon,
00:41:43has asked me to sign your resignation papers.
00:41:46has asked me to sign your resignation papers.
00:41:49And I know that he's speaking on behalf of every one of the superstars of the federation.
00:41:52And I know that he's speaking on behalf of every one of the superstars of the federation.
00:41:55Although some of them won't say it to your face
00:41:58Although some of them won't say it to your face
00:42:01because they're afraid, I'm not afraid.
00:42:04I speak on behalf of them.
00:42:07I speak on behalf of Kuntuzinia, Triple H, Rakishi
00:42:10and even Steve Austin himself.
00:42:13What?
00:42:17Superstars that we have agreements with the federation
00:42:20Superstars that we have agreements with the federation
00:42:23and we demand, no, we insist
00:42:26that you resign immediately.
00:42:29He was chosen.
00:42:32Wait a minute.
00:42:35No one can speak on behalf of the snaking snake
00:42:38except the snaking snake itself.
00:42:41And now it's going to get very tense
00:42:44and it's coming to the ring.
00:42:47Wait a minute.
00:42:50Just look at the snaking snake after the last night's match.
00:42:53He's also injured.
00:42:56Austin has been hit by Sinan.
00:42:59He has bruises on his head.
00:43:02He's still here.
00:43:05But he's not in the mood at all.
00:43:08He barely manages to ride on the rope
00:43:11that's in the audience this evening.
00:43:16Just look at the expression on Mr. McMahon's face.
00:43:19He would gladly accept if he was brought to the table by Austin's head.
00:43:28Regalus was introduced on behalf of the Superstars.
00:43:31He was chosen as the speaker.
00:43:37After what I've been through last year
00:43:40if you don't take your hand off the microphone
00:43:43I'm going to turn you into blood.
00:43:46So you're speaking on behalf of the Iceman Steve Austin?
00:43:52That's very nice.
00:43:55The bad thing is that the Iceman doesn't need anyone
00:43:58to speak on behalf of him,
00:44:01especially some mean-smelling son-of-a-bitch like you.
00:44:04Wait a minute.
00:44:07If I've got a problem with anybody
00:44:10and I don't care who the silly fuck it is
00:44:13I'm going to throw it to their face.
00:44:16Let's do it.
00:44:20As far as Mr. Freddie goes
00:44:29if you want Mick Foley
00:44:32to tear this red connection
00:44:36and shove it up the ass of Vince
00:44:42and remain as the president of the federation
00:44:46call the devils!
00:44:49The devils!
00:44:52Be careful!
00:44:55Pat Patterson got him.
00:44:58Briscoe is trying to escape the ring
00:45:01but the Iceman gets him.
00:45:04The next one.
00:45:07Mr. McMahon is under the crossbar.
00:45:10The roaring snake grabs him from the front
00:45:13and behind him...
00:45:16Mick Foley has his shoe sock in his throat.
00:45:19And this is the big boss of the federation.
00:45:22God, no!
00:45:28No, no, that's what McMahon wanted.
00:45:31They've made a mess of our president Foley.
00:45:34Don't do it, Foley!
00:45:37Foley is clearly not going to resign.
00:45:40Clearly?
00:45:43God, what is McMahon going to do now?
00:45:46Our president didn't resign.
00:45:49What's next for him?
00:45:52We'll see each other again there.
00:46:01The next day.
00:46:05The next day.
00:46:28War is eternal.
00:46:34War is eternal.
00:46:51Invasion of the Federation!
00:46:54Invasion of the Federation!
00:46:57Invasion of the Federation!
00:47:00The war is not over yet.
00:47:03Tonight we'll find out how strong the Federation's superstars are.
00:47:06Tonight we'll find out how strong the Federation's superstars are.
00:47:09Tonight we'll find out how strong the Federation's superstars are.
00:47:12Our fans in New York are ready,

00:48:03J.R., your last choice is one.
00:48:06The Second League and the Extremists have brought in
00:48:09the greatest player in the history of sports entertainment.
00:48:12the greatest player in the history of sports entertainment.
00:48:15Don't you remember I told you that Austin sold his soul to the devil
00:48:18Don't you remember I told you that Austin sold his soul to the devil
00:48:21and he sold his soul to himself.
00:48:25A lot of questions await their answer from the Iceman Steve Austin this evening.
00:48:28A lot of questions await their answer from the Iceman Steve Austin this evening.
00:48:31We believed, the fans of the World Federation believed
00:48:34that the old Iceman Steve Austin has returned.
00:48:37But the championship title of the Federation
00:48:40is already in the opponent's camp.
00:48:43The most valuable title of the World Federation
00:48:46is under the control of another company for the first time in history.
00:48:49Personally, I feel disgusted by all the fans of the Federation
00:48:52who were deceived and then betrayed by Steve Austin.
00:48:55who were deceived and then betrayed by Steve Austin.
00:49:08Look, I don't blame any of you for what you've done.
00:49:11Look, I don't blame any of you for what you've done.
00:49:14The truth...
00:49:18I don't blame you.
00:49:21The truth...
00:49:24The truth...
00:49:29These fans of our Federation are extremely angry and furious with Stephanie.
00:49:32These fans of our Federation are extremely angry and furious with Stephanie.
00:49:35It's all right, I don't blame you.
00:49:38The truth is always difficult to swallow.
00:49:41And we, from the Alliance of the Second League and the Extreme Federation,
00:49:47we have brought to you tonight the deep truth.
00:49:57Shane, Paul and I,
00:50:00we told you that the Alliance of the Second League and the Extreme Federation
00:50:05would dominate the World Federation, and we did it.
00:50:11We told you that the Alliance of the Second League and the Extreme Federation
00:50:16would dominate the World Federation, and we did it.
00:50:26And we told you that the World Federation is dead,
00:50:32and it is.
00:50:35Because tonight, the Alliance of the Second League and the Extreme Federation
00:50:41took such a deadly blow,
00:50:44that the World Federation is bleeding.
00:50:50And the bleeding cannot be stopped.
00:50:54You can shout as much as you want, but you cannot stop the World Federation
00:51:04from dying a painful death.
00:51:11And it will happen right before your very eyes.
00:51:19Shane, I hate to mention it, but we told them.
00:51:28We told you.
00:51:33We told you that you support the Second Order,
00:51:38Markov, the entertainment, that's exactly what you do.
00:51:44And you lied.
00:51:46We told you that you support the losing side,
00:51:50which consists of a gang of scoundrels.
00:51:58We were right.
00:52:00You were wrong.
00:52:02We told you.
00:52:04We told you that we were going to rip out the heart and the soul of the World Federation.
00:52:12We did it, didn't we, Shane?
00:52:15Because, ladies and gentlemen, Markov, the entertainment...
00:52:23Backup, backup.
00:52:26These scoundrels are for Austin.
00:52:31Even now you don't listen to us.
00:52:34Markov, the entertainment, this industry, today, at last,
00:52:39thank God, is the alliance of the Second League and the Extreme Federation.
00:52:46Ladies and gentlemen, if you want proof of this, think about the next one.
00:52:52For the first time in history, thanks to Steve Austin.
00:53:00The championship title of the World Federation was taken away.
00:53:07Taken away from the World Federation.
00:53:11Taken away from each and every one of you.
00:53:16He who holds the gold, holds the power.
00:53:21And he, Shane, who holds the power, holds the gold.
00:53:27He who holds the power, holds the gold.
00:53:38Last night, you only saw the beginning.
00:53:42Because there is a new leading brand in the entertainment,
00:53:46and it is the alliance of the Second League and the Extreme Federation.
00:53:52A brand that promises to be more exciting and entertaining than the WWF.
00:53:59A brand whose fans will be more and more trusted and excited
00:54:06and appreciative for what they are watching and the people who are watching,
00:54:11unlike all of you.
00:54:15A brand that promises to introduce new standards of excellence for our business.
00:54:26And allow me to introduce you to the man
00:54:30that will lead our alliance from the Superstars to the future,
00:54:34to the promised land.
00:54:39Head on your feet.
00:54:41He is the most influential man in the history of sports entertainment.
00:54:51Head on your feet.
00:54:53I said, head on your feet!
00:54:59And pay respect to the World Federation Champion,
00:55:07the ice-cold Steve Austin.
00:55:14How do you respect someone when he is only fighting for himself,
00:55:19and not for the fans who created him?
00:55:22If there is one thing, if there is one thing that the ice-cold Steve Austin respects,
00:55:41it's appreciation.
00:55:46Over the last few weeks,
00:55:48I've found that the ice-cold Steve Austin is no longer appreciated.
00:55:58Vince McMahon, every time I turn around,
00:56:01I saw you hugging the Kurt Angle behind my back.
00:56:08You're hugging Kurt Angle because he's something special.
00:56:14You're hugging Kurt Angle because you want to replace me.
00:56:21You know, Vince,
00:56:23the hugs between the ice-cold Steve Austin and Vince McMahon were special,
00:56:29but hey, it's no longer.
00:56:32You want to hug Kurt Angle because you want him to be the next champion of the Federation.
00:56:39Austin is a jerk.
00:56:41So what's the problem with the ice-cold Steve Austin?
00:56:44What's the problem?
00:56:50There ain't nothing wrong with me.
00:56:54And what's worse than that,
00:56:56every time I turn around,
00:56:58every time I walk into your office,
00:57:00all I see is you talking on the phone.
00:57:02I see you dialing that little number,
00:57:05and I know who you're talking to, Vince.
00:57:08Yeah, damn right.
00:57:10You don't know who I'm talking to, do you?
00:57:14Oh, yeah.
00:57:15You're totally...
00:57:17You're totally wrong, Steve.
00:57:39Why?
00:57:44Why you gotta come along?
00:57:47Why do you have to come along?
00:57:49I'm here, I'm standing in this ring.
00:57:53What's wrong with me?
00:57:56Because...
00:57:58I don't know why.
00:58:00What's wrong with Steve Austin?
00:58:02Why do you wanna come along?
00:58:06Everything I've done for you,
00:58:08you don't need to turn around,
00:58:10you don't need to walk into my office,
00:58:12you got the ice-cold Steve Austin,
00:58:14but that ain't good enough for you.
00:58:19I'm no longer appreciated.
