00:00The numbers are overwhelming against The Rock, Undertaker, and Kane!
00:10Fitz McMahon is still a genius!
00:12Kane! No! Kane suplex right through the table!
00:16The Undertaker's being fast for the chair!
00:18And look at Shane in the ring, taking out The Rock!
00:20Triple H puts The Rock down in the ring!
00:22Pedigree! Pedigree!
00:24He is a genius!
00:26Triple H is setting up The Rock
00:28Giant Killer to the top rope! Here he goes!
00:30Oh my god! Look at this!
00:32Oh, he's blocking The Rock, Kane!
00:34It's Fitz's elbow!
00:36This is embarrassing! Now they're forcing Earl Heffner to count!
00:38This is a damn humiliation!
00:40Fitz McMahon just beat The Rock!
00:42It was a damn 12 on 3!
00:44I got a feeling we just gotta split for the future!
00:46Yeah, but this Sunday, the WWF Championship's on the line!
00:50Hey, look, look, look! You smell what bits of the faction is cooking!
00:58Awesome!
01:00It's your name's your name!
01:02It's the time to go!
01:04You smell what bits of the faction is!
01:06You smell it!
01:07It's like your name's the team!
01:10You smell it!
01:12It's a lot of things that you're not!
01:14You smell the way, Joe!
01:16You smell the way!
01:18You smell the way!
01:20You smell it!
01:22And the Word is so...
01:24...oh, my mouth is the same!
01:26It was a scene that reeked the conspiracy, but certainly smelled sweet for the faction.
01:48Will Mr. Fan, Shane, and Triple H smell victory once again?
01:53For tonight at the King of the Ring, will they realize the odor of defeat along with Michael Hayes?
01:58I'm Kevin Kelly. Welcome, everybody, to Sunday Night Heat.
02:01We are less than 60 minutes away from the start of King of the Ring, live on pay-per-view.
02:07Kevin, the WWF Championship is in jeopardy tonight like it has never been before.
02:11The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
02:14Making his way to the ring, weighing in at allegedly over 400 pounds, Hardcore Holly!
02:21Hardcore Holly first up in action here on Heat.
02:25Quite a swagger on Hardcore Holly, as always.
02:29Well, he's a big shot.
02:32Wearing right down here at us.
02:33Boy, what an hour it's going to be as we get you set in sight for the King of the Ring.
02:37You make a point about the World Wrestling Federation Championship being in jeopardy.
02:41It all has to do with the six-man tag team match.
02:45That is the main event of tonight's King of the Ring.
02:47We will explain it in moments.
02:48Wearing in at 250 pounds, Gangrel!
02:55Gangrel to emerge from the Ring of Fire.
02:57Is he ready for what Hardcore Holly can deliver?
03:02And, Michael, you have to know that Triple H has got to have a little bit of an edge to him.
03:07A little butterflies in his stomach because he knows that his World Wrestling Federation Championship is in jeopardy, like you said.
03:13With Vince McMahon and Shane McMahon in his corner.
03:15If any member of that team loses, either The Rock, The Undertaker, or Kane will become the World Wrestling Federation Champion.
03:21That's true, Kevin, but the other side of the coin is, can you see The Rock hitting the people's elbow and The Undertaker and Kane just watching The Rock become WWF Champion?
03:30No, The Undertaker didn't return to the WWF not to be WWF Champion.
03:34Kane came back because Kane wants to be WWF Champion.
03:38I don't see any way that that tag team can succeed tonight.
03:42So it will be gang growling against Hardcore Holly as we start off here on Sunday Night Heat.
03:46And, of course, we will take you to the Fleet Center in Boston, the site of the King of the Ring, for late-breaking news, backstage happenings, and all the latest developments as we count down towards the King of the Ring.
04:00You know that also tonight we will crown a King of the Ring for the year 2000.
04:06And historically, Michael, perhaps nothing has been a stepping stone to immortality here in the World Wrestling Federation than becoming the King of the Ring.
04:14I've got to agree with you there, Kevin.
04:15The King of the Ring tournament is definitely the launching pad to WWF Superstardom.
04:21Hardcore Holly was, by many accounts, ripped off in his attempt to qualify for the King of the Ring as gang growl starts off very quickly.
04:30A strange situation with his cousin Crash.
04:33All of a sudden, Gerald Briscoe interferes, trying to become Hardcore Champion.
04:37In fact, he did.
04:38That got Hardcore Holly disqualified.
04:40Crash is in the field of eight tonight as gang growl is run fangs first into the turnbuckle.
04:46Fangs first.
04:47I like that.
04:49And now, wait a minute.
04:50Holly dips his hand.
04:51Gang growl makes a pay for right out here in front of us.
04:54So what we wound up with by the end of the week, Michael, was Gerald Briscoe becoming the Hardcore.
04:59You chuckle, you giggle, and I know why.
05:01Gerald Briscoe, Hardcore Champion.
05:03And then the post-batch celebration, the pledge of love from Gerald to Pat Patterson.
05:08A champagne bottle across the back of the head.
05:10And lo and behold, Pat Patterson is the Hardcore Champion.
05:12Pat Patterson is the Hardcore Champion.
05:14And I venture to say that Pat will never look so lovely as tonight in the first ever Hardcore Evening Gown matchup.
05:21Now, all of that transpired Thursday on SmackDown.
05:24Mr. McMahon made that matchup as Hardcore Holly just punts gang growl's innards into about the eighth row.
05:30Can you imagine what it's going to be like when two World Wrestling Federation legends,
05:34the first Intercontinental Champion and Hall of Famer Pat Patterson and Gerald Briscoe don't evening gowns and compete Hardcore style?
05:41Geraldine and Patricia.
05:42Oh, my goodness.
05:44Now Hardcore Holly's going up top.
05:46And boy, gang growl makes him pay for it.
05:48Great counter there by gang growl.
05:49I think Hardcore took a little bit too long up there on the top rope.
05:53Now let's see if gang growl can seize this moment.
05:56Double underhook suplex expertly applied by gang growl.
06:01Takes Hardcore holding down again, not once, but twice.
06:06Gang growl has seized momentum.
06:08Shot across once again.
06:10Holly ducks his head.
06:12Again, he pays for it.
06:13Backslide two.
06:14Almost had him.
06:15Nice backslide by gang growl.
06:19And gang growl can smell victory right here.
06:23Will the faction smell victory once again?
06:26They smelled what the Rock was cooking Thursday.
06:28A go down roll up two.
06:30He's got him.
06:30No, he does not.
06:33Gang growl once again coming within millimeters of scoring a victory.
06:37Can you imagine the humiliation that the Rock felt?
06:39Oh, what a sweet drop kick.
06:43Humiliation.
06:44That had to be the most embarrassing moment in the Rock's career being pinned by Mr. McMahon.
06:49Keep in mind that it was a total of 12 assailants.
06:52That's not important.
06:53That is important.
06:54The numbers do not lie.
06:56Oh, man.
06:57Neither does the record book.
06:58Hardcore holding just drives gang growl down and scores the victory.
07:01Here is your winner, Hardcore Holley.
07:08Hardcore victorious.
07:10Will Hardcore's cousin Crash be as fortunate tonight in the King of the Ring tournament?
07:16The action fast and furious as we begin here on Heat.
07:19The countdown to the King of the Ring is on.
07:22And, Michael, I know that when we start in Boston at the Fleet Center,
07:26the King of the Ring is going to come alive.
07:27What a tremendous main event.
07:28Well, Kevin, if anybody knows anything about being a successful tag team,
07:32that would be me.
07:33And a couple things that come to mind is cohesiveness, chemistry, being on the same page.
07:39None of these things apply to Kane, the Rock, or the Undertaker.
07:42So I would suggest that you expect to see the same thing that you saw on SmackDown.
07:47We'll crown a new King of the Ring tonight.
07:49Wait a minute.
07:50There's Crash Holley.
07:50Hey, Crash.
07:51Quick word here, if I could.
07:52I think it would be safe to say that tonight you are the decided underdog in the King of the Ring.
07:57Decided?
07:58Who decided?
07:59You decided?
08:00What makes you the voice of the people?
08:02Look, let me tell you something.
08:03Ever since I was a little boy, it's been a dream mind-wing King of the Ring.
08:06I don't plan on letting that dream slip away anytime soon.
08:10Underdog, you're just lucky my plans don't include kicking your butt right here, right now.
08:14Stupid.
08:15Sure.
08:17This portion of the WWF is brought to you by Castrol GTX.
08:21Drive hard.
08:21In all of us, there is the genetic code for mutation.
08:31Now, a change is coming.
08:34Magneto believes that a war is brewing between mutants and the rest of humanity.
08:38Those we fear will be all that can save us.
08:44He could wipe out everyone in New York City.
08:46Starts Friday, July 14th.
08:56There's always plenty of action at the WWF call center.
08:59And now, with our WWF Power Slam package, things have gotten even wilder.
09:03Call 1-877-SLAM-WWF.
09:05Order our 12 amazing pay-per-views.
09:07And we'll throw on a free Bell Express View satellite system.
09:10That's right, a free dish plus 12 WWF events.
09:13But to get it, you need to punch our number.
09:15Here, let me show you.
09:16Come on, back up, Edge.
09:19Call now just for easy payments of $89.
09:23Man, where are the Artie boys when you need them?
09:26Hanging with Hebsey.
09:28What's that all about?
09:29So how about chilling with Hebsey?
09:31Bring some flavor.
09:33Game day.
09:34Every day.
09:36Go, Hebsey.
09:37It's your birthday.
09:38Who's your daddy?
09:39Yo, back off, Kiprios.
09:44You don't want a piece of me.
09:46Oh, that's right, Utah.
09:47Oh, big man.
09:48Oh, yeah, come on, Nikola.
09:49Hey, that's okay.
09:49Here, we'll talk about this.
09:50It's all right.
09:51Yeah, just relax.
09:52Game day.
09:53Every day.
09:54Real diamonds.
09:55Those are nice, Mr. Kiprios.
09:56Chris Begoire, the Wolverine is relentless, Kevin Kelly.
10:17Tonight, Sunday Night Heat is brought to you by Chef Boyardee Overstuff.
10:22Overstuff yourself on Monday nights with Chef Boyardee Overstuff and the WWF.
10:26And by Twitch, it's all in the mix.
10:28And by Sony PlayStation.
10:29Live in your world, play in ours.
10:32Wolverine is an apt description for Chris Benoit, who cut the celebration short Thursday on SmackDown.
10:38But nonetheless, Chris Benoit is no longer the Intercontinental Champion.
10:41It is Rikishi.
10:42And tonight, Rikishi and Chris Benoit collide.
10:46Quarterfinal matchup in the King of the Ring.
10:48I think the worst thing...
10:49It's a good weight into 304 pounds.
10:52Minion!
10:53The worst thing that could have happened to Rikishi was defeating Chris Benoit for the Intercontinental title.
10:58Why do you say that, Michael?
10:59Well, take a look at what Benoit did to Rikishi after Rikishi won the Intercontinental title.
11:04So, it will be moshed against Midian, and we understand...
11:10Boy, you want to talk about Chris Benoit's emotional state.
11:13What's going on inside the now former Intercontinental Champion's mind.
11:16We understand that Michael Cole talked to Chris Benoit earlier today in Boston at the Fleet Center.
11:22And we understand there's some very interesting, rather inflammatory comments from the Crippler.
11:29Man, oh man, regarding Rikishi, who knows what, regarding King of the Ring.
11:32Well, first of all, consider that Michael Cole was doing the interview in the first place.
11:37Oh, wait a minute now.
11:37Look out, mosh!
11:38Oh!
11:40Clothesline off the second rope.
11:43Certainly, Chris Benoit against Rikishi.
11:45Just one of four quarterfinal matches that you will see tonight at the King of the Ring.
11:51As mosh pounds away on Midian.
11:55Chris Benoit has but one blow is on his record from the WWF,
11:59and he can rectify that tonight, facing Rikishi.
12:02I thought Rikishi was going to have problems concerning the King of the Ring with Val Venis.
12:08He still could.
12:09They're potentially on a collision course.
12:11But now it looks as if Chris Benoit is to have Rikishi.
12:15Oh, man, oh, man.
12:17Midian elevated out on the wall there on the far side of the ring.
12:22We're also going to see, talk about Val Venis.
12:24Will he be able to advance past Eddie Guerrero, who, of course, will have his Mamacita China along with him?
12:30That's going to be a great matchup.
12:32Look at Mosh!
12:33Oh, what elevation!
12:34Another thing you have to factor in here, Kevin, is to win the King of the Ring,
12:38you not only have to be very strong, you have to have a lot of endurance.
12:42And I kind of wonder how that's going to work with Rikishi.
12:47Whoever emerges victorious from the King of the Ring will have to win three separate times here tonight.
12:52A tall order.
12:53Oh!
12:53Oh, it's Midian puts himself at risk.
12:57Boltzmann go out to the floor.
12:58But think about what winning the King of the Ring has done has meant for superstars' careers.
13:04I mean, men such as Stone Cold Steve Austin, Triple H, Ken Shamrock.
13:09Mr. S., those are the last four winners of the King of the Ring, Michael.
13:12And think about the way the victory of the King of the Ring propelled all four men to greatness.
13:18Well, it definitely puts you in another hemisphere, so to speak.
13:21And it has been, as I said earlier, a launching pad to WWF Superstarters.
13:26It's really hard to pick a favorite in this tournament.
13:29Oh, Midian.
13:30Down across the throw to Mosh.
13:31Two.
13:33And a near, near fall there as Mosh was almost down for the three count.
13:37We'll also see Crash Holly.
13:38You heard it from him moments ago.
13:41Many say underdog.
13:42We'll find what happens against Fullview Cannon.
13:44And also, Kurt Angle against Y2J, Chris Jericho.
13:47Those are your four quarter-final matches for King of the Ring.
13:50And look at Mosh now as he clobbers Midian.
13:54Let me tell you something, Kevin Kelly.
13:56Do not underestimate Crash Holly.
13:59The underdog role is nothing new to Crash Holly.
14:05Mosh on top of Midian on the second row.
14:08Plus the tag team titles will be on the line.
14:12In a four-team elimination tag match.
14:14Too cool defending against the former champs, Edge and Christian.
14:16The former champs, the Hardy Boys, and also TNA, who have never held the titles before.
14:21But wait a minute now.
14:23Midian hooks Foss.
14:24The eye-opener.
14:26Midian hooks the leg.
14:27Midian wins.
14:30You sound shocked.
14:31Well, aren't you?
14:32The winner, Midian.
14:34All right, folks.
14:36Here is that interview earlier today.
14:38Chris Medlock.
14:40Chris, Thursday on SmackDown, you were beaten by Rikishi 1-2-3 in the middle of the ring.
14:45Are you ready tonight to take on the new Intercontinental Champion in your King of the Ring matchup?
14:49You know, Michael, asking that question probably wasn't the smartest thing you've ever done.
14:56But lucky for you, your questions aren't what I'm thinking about right now.
14:59What I'm thinking about right now is our new Intercontinental Champion, Rikishi.
15:04And how winning that title was probably the worst thing that could have ever happened to him.
15:10And after tonight, you'll know why.
15:11Hey, it's the new Multipacks from Always.
15:18Three levels of protection in one pack.
15:22Because not every day is the same.
15:24Three sizes, one pack.
15:25New Always Multipacks.
15:27Being a woman just got better.
15:29Your car never knacks.
15:32It never complains about how much time you spend with the guys.
15:35It thinks a little gas is a good thing.
15:39Here's to the perfect relationship.
15:44You have firearms?
15:46Here's an important message.
15:47The law requires you to have a firearms license or a valid FAC by the end of this year.
15:53Everyone who owns or uses a firearm needs a license.
15:56This is not the same thing as a registration certificate or a hunting license.
16:00Starting next year, you'll have to show your license to purchase ammunition.
16:03Don't delay.
16:04Apply now.
16:05We can help you with your applications.
16:07Call 1-800-731-4000 or visit our website.
16:11A message from the government of Canada.
16:14And they're sitting there just talk, talk, talk, talking away.
16:18And I'm nodding my head.
16:20But when I get a little lost, which happens a lot,
16:25I just repeat the last thing they say in the form of a question.
16:28Like, um, so I should, I should save my work to a separate file.
16:36Works every time.
16:37One, two, three, triple charge!
16:47With the new Sopa Soka!
16:48And deep triple charge!
16:50You're packing not one, not two, but three tanks to pressurize power!
16:53So you can!
16:54Blast them!
16:56The tanks pressurizes a film man!
16:58The empty tank goes!
16:59Then snap to reload!
17:00And let the water be flow!
17:03Or fill them!
17:03Anywhere!
17:04And promote the power!
17:05Power!
17:06With the new S-C triple charge!
17:08Three tanks!
17:09A ladder!
17:09Then one!
17:10And at the S-C 400!
17:12And a big trouble power pack, too!
17:13Each sold trippin'.
17:15Catch all the women's soccer action right here on CTV Sportsnet.
17:19Watch Canada.
17:20They take on teams from around the globe in the Women's Gold Cup Soccer Tournament.
17:25Canada, China.
17:26Tomorrow at 8, 9 Atlantic on CTV Sportsnet.
17:31Yo, back off, Kiprios.
17:32You don't want a piece of me.
17:33Oh, that's right, Utah.
17:34Oh, big man.
17:35Oh, yeah, come on, Nikola.
17:36Hey, that's okay.
17:37Hey, we'll talk about this.
17:38It's all right.
17:38Yeah, just relax.
17:39Game day.
17:40Every day.
17:42Real Titans.
17:43Both are nice, Mr. Kiprios.
17:51You're looking live at the Fleet Center in Boston, the site of the King of the Ring,
17:54which begins in less than one hour, live on pay-per-view.
17:57The event sold out in four minutes.
18:00You know the crowd is going to be checked, and your opportunity to tune in on pay-per-view,
18:03of course, is right now.
18:04What we want you to do is to save the copy of your cable or satellite bill.
18:08So if you purchase the King of the Ring, your cable or satellite provider,
18:12you have an opportunity to receive this stone-cold can cooler, all for good while supplies last.
18:16Kevin, one of the matches that really intrigues me is tonight's first-ever handicap table dumpster match.
18:24Now, the objective, if you are DX, is to put both Dudleys in the dumpster and close the lid.
18:29If you're the Dudleys, then you need to put every member of DX through a table.
18:34And you know, Kevin, this feud started at Judgment Day.
18:38What is that Jezebel doing in there?
18:43Torrey, oh, she was going to snap the ball right.
18:45Torrey!
18:46Torrey's going to get some serious blood tonight.
18:49You mean there's enough table for Torrey?
18:50Good God Almighty!
18:52But that is a brick here in half!
18:54Ah!
18:54Briscoe the Saint!
18:55Torrey's in half!
18:56I'm going to snap out of it!
18:57I promise you, Torrey will know our name, and we will testify!
19:04Torrey's got to be next on the promise hit list!
19:07That Jezebel is on the top!
19:08Torrey, Torrey, Torrey!
19:10Oh, my God!
19:11Oh, no!
19:12From her own body, right through Boa Dudley!
19:14The Dudleys are never going to forgive, or forgive DX and Torrey for what they have done here tonight!
19:21The Dudley boys want revenge on DX!
19:24The Dudleys and DX have some unfinished business!
19:26DX has some jump, and DX is strapped for the Dudleys in that dumpster!
19:30This is sick!
19:31No!
19:33No!
19:33You're the most dumpster on the stage!
19:36DX is real dark, and that's right!
19:38They may have just ended the careers of the Dudleys!
19:41And now the Dudleys have not forgotten that dumpster ride!
19:45Or it came in the ribs and above a Dudley!
19:47King of the ring, we want those damn dumpsters!
19:48In the interest of fairness, let's make this a handicap table dumpster!
19:56In the interest of fairness, Dudley boys, you will not!
20:00And I repeat, not put my woman to a table!
20:05I can guarantee you that!
20:07It's a handicap table dumpster match!
20:10Road Dog and Poc Torrey against the Dudleys!
20:12Sunday on pay-per-view at King of the Ring!
20:15It promises to get physicaled in the first ever handicap table dumpster match!
20:19Right now we take you live to Times Square in New York City, where, Michael, the party is
20:25going to get started right very soon!
20:27The center of the entertainment universe, many say!
20:30And WWF New York is going to be hosting a big one tonight!
20:33Oh, if you're anywhere in the New York area, you've got to get to WWF New York!
20:36It's the freshest place in Times Square!
20:38It's got all kind of flavor!
20:40Always something going on at WWF New York!
20:43Oh, and Ivory is arriving!
20:45You know it's going to be the place to be!
20:47Hey, girl!
20:48We understand we'll show you more from WWF New York, but from King of the Ring!
20:53My day starts here, but who knows when it'll end?
20:58That's why I use the new Speed Stick Ultimate Deodorant.
21:00It's formulated to give you antibacterial protection that kills odor for tough 24-hour protection.
21:08Rolling Stone calls The Patriot a thunderous spectacle.
21:11It packs a wallop.
21:13Heath Ledger plays his role to rugged perfection.
21:16Mel Gibson gives one of his best performances.
21:19The Patriot opens everywhere Wednesday.
21:23For anyone who's been told they couldn't do it...
21:26I could cry if I had to.

22:07The Rock says...
22:08If I could see my clients every day, I'd promise they'd never see another flake of dandruff.
22:15I tell them, use head and shoulders every time they shampoo, to help stop flakes before they even start.
22:21Perfect.
22:21I like you dreaming.
22:31Right between the summer seas.
22:36You don't know what they're weaving by.
22:40How you're talking to be, little girl, on a band that's going to fly.
22:45You don't know what we even see.
22:48You don't know what they're weaving by.
22:51You don't know what they're weaving by.
22:54Marty, Marty, I got a scoop for you.
22:55Big time, free of charge.
22:57All right.
22:58Sean Green to L.A.
22:59Junior, Cincy, Cincy, Junior.
23:02Get a...
23:02Hey, hey, hey.
23:03X-Nay on the A-Train.
23:05Get out of here.
23:06Game day.
23:07Every day.
23:08Game day.
23:18Every day.
23:20Keep in mind that it took a total of 12 conspirators to get Vince McMahon to that point.
23:26But, Michael, I have a feeling that The Rock has been playing that scene over and over in his mind since Thursday.
23:31And he isn't about to forget.
23:33He's scheduled for one fall.
23:35Making his way to the ring from Guadalajara, Mexico.
23:38Weighing in at 217 pounds, E.Rio.
23:43Kevin, you need to let it go.
23:45Don't worry about 12 conspirators.
23:47What you need to worry about is what went in the record books.
23:50Mr. McMahon defeating the great one.
23:53And as I said earlier, don't be surprised if the same result happens tonight in Boston.
23:58Well, Michael, you're not going to play me for a fool and tell me that Mr. McMahon wouldn't employ the 82nd Airborne.
24:04Winning a 235-pound TV Ringer.
24:08If it means keeping that World Wrestling Federation Championship around the waist of the game.
24:13There's no level to which Mr. McMahon will not stoop to ensure that Triple H wins the king of the ring the World Wrestling Federation Champion.
24:19Well, I will agree with you on that aspect, Kevin.
24:22But by the same token, there's nothing more that needs to be done to this six-man tag team match.
24:27Because basically, if you're The Rock, Kane, or The Undertaker, you want the WWF title.
24:34And that spells defeat for that team.
24:37We will find out what happens.
24:39Less than an hour.
24:40It's Stevie Richards one-on-one against E.Rios.
24:42We'll see if Stevie is able to match up to the high-flying artistic ability of E.Rios.
24:49At one time, E.Rios had the lovely Lita in his corner.
24:54But they've had a falling out.
24:56And I would say, Michael, that Lita and Trish Stratus had a bit of a falling out Thursday on SmackDown.
25:00I don't know if you'd call it a falling out or falling down because it appeared that Lita, who I like, just wasn't up to the measurement of Trish Stratus.
25:12She got defeated by Trish Stratus.
25:14Yeah, thanks to Albert and a huge powerbomb from the 375-pounders.
25:19E.Rios runs into the boot.
25:21Wait a minute now.
25:22Stevie.
25:24Listen, feel those kicks.
25:25Man, E.Rios really laying him in.
25:27Look at this now.
25:28I talked about artistic just moments ago.
25:31Wow.
25:32What maneuvers by E.Rios.
25:35Kevin, what do you do?
25:35Just sit at home and make up excuses?
25:37I think you're right in revisionist history.
25:40You forget all about the fact that Lita was the first one to boot.
25:42Oh!
25:43On Trish, and there's E.Rios when it corkscrewed Plungeup.
25:47Oh!
25:48I mean, the facts are this.
25:49Yes, Trish Stratus led the team of TNA to a win in that six-person tag jersey on SmackDown.
25:55But this is a huge night for Trish Stratus here at the King of the Ring.
25:58Oh, definitely.
25:59Trish Stratus came to the WWF to bring TNA Tag Team gold.
26:04Cover to it.
26:05Stevie Richards kicks out.
26:06Then Trish aligned herself with Val Venus.
26:08We've seen the upswing of Val Venus' career.
26:11Val could win the King of the Ring tournament.
26:13TNA could lead WWF Tag Team Champions.
26:16Oh, wait a minute.
26:17Stevie.
26:18Oh!
26:19Nice!
26:19The running Stevie bomb.
26:22And E.Rios kicks out.
26:25So, yeah, this is a huge night for Trish Stratus.
26:28Can Val Venus emerge from the eighth quarterfinalist and become the King of the Ring?
26:33Val's got the intensity.
26:35He's got the physicality.
26:36And more importantly, as I referred to earlier, Val Venus has a lot of endurance.
26:41Well, he's shown a nasty, mean streak over the past few weeks.
26:44That's cool.
26:45That certainly, I think, will bode well for him.
26:48The killer instinct, many say.
26:50Being able to win when you're in control.
26:53Something that Stevie Richards has needed some help with.
26:55We've seen him get very close to victory.
26:57This could do it.
26:58Double underhook.
26:59Oh, and another near fall.
27:01Boy, Stevie's really on top of his game tonight.
27:04I'll tell you what.
27:04For Val Venus, though, getting by the European champion Eddie Guerrero will not be easy.
27:09Especially after the way Val Venus attacks, some would say, provoked Eddie Guerrero Thursday on SmackDown.
27:17What kind of a mood is the male member of Latino Heat going to be in?
27:22What kind of physical shape is he in?
27:23What's his emotional state going to be like?
27:27What about Mamacita?
27:28What kind of role could the ninth one of the world play?
27:30Oh, what a maneuver there.
27:34Great head scissors counter from Essay.
27:36Oh, uh-oh, boy.
27:38Essay went for the high risk.
27:40Got himself caught.
27:41Now's your opportunity, Stevie.
27:42Capitalized.
27:47Now let's see what happens if Stevie Richards has Essay in control.
27:51Stevie bomb time.
27:53Hey, Kevin.
27:54Yeah?
27:55What kind of dress do you think Joe Briscoll will have on?
27:57Oh, my goodness.
27:58Why didn't you put that mental imagery in my head?
28:01Who we got?
28:02I don't believe it.
28:03Essay Rios kicked out again.
28:07Hope they shave their legs.
28:08Oh, my goodness.
28:10I hate a girl with hairy legs.
28:12It's going to be Pat Patterson against Gerald Briscoll with a hardcore title in an evening gown match here tonight.
28:19As we'll take you back to Boston in just a few seconds of sight of the king of the ring.
28:24Essay off the top rope.
28:26Boy, he really loves to use his body as a weapon.
28:32That'll snap your sternum.
28:36That'll leave a mark, too.
28:39So Essay Rios is now back in control.
28:41The doorway to victory for Stevie Richards may have closed shut.
28:46No, sir.
28:47Wait a minute.
28:48Here comes Essay charging back in.
28:51Stevie gets caught up on the second rope.
28:56And now Essay Rios is gone on the top.
28:59Going to take to the sky.
29:01What's it going?
29:02Oh, now the moves off.
29:05This one is over.
29:06Textbook moves off there by Essay Rios.
29:11Here's your winner, Essay Rios.
29:14Big win for Essay Rios.
29:16What kind of night is it going to be for Val Venus?
29:18Standing by back in Boston at the sight of the king of the ring as the coach.
29:23Val, over the last couple of months, we've watched you become more and more aggressive with your opponents in the ring.
29:27For example, this past Thursday on SmackDown, you attacked Eddie Guerrero, who's your first-round opponent in the king of the ring tournament tonight.
29:34Now, some would say this particular attack didn't fit in the realm of good sportsmanship.
29:41Sorry about that, coach.
29:42I mean, I must have missed class 101 on ethics on my way to king of the ring.
29:46The reality is I will do what I have to do to get where I have to go.
29:50And tonight, Eddie Guerrero is just another stepping stone on my way to the top of the World Wrestling Federation.
29:56And remember this, I never enter into the ring with anything less on my mind than absolute victory.
30:06And now on another side of the fleet center, we see Linda McBadden.
30:09Linda, excuse me. Linda. Linda.
30:11Hi, how are you?
30:12We weren't expecting you here in Boston tonight.
30:15What are you doing at the king of the ring?
30:17Michael, I'm here tonight to do something I should have done a long time ago.
30:22I'm here to confront my husband.
30:24So, excuse me.
30:25Whoa!
30:26Oh, man.
30:28Three men united by power, consumed by hate.
30:31You will never beat me.
30:34Three men united by force, divided by gold.
30:37To beat either one of the three of us, then that person will be the World Wrestling Federation champion.
30:44A six-man tag team war for the World Wrestling Federation championship.
30:48WWF King of the Ring presented live by subway tonight, only on pay-per-view.
30:54My day starts here, but who knows when it'll end.
31:02That's why I use new speed stick ultimate deodorant.
31:07It's formulated to give you antibacterial protection that kills odors.
31:10For tough 24-hour protection.
31:13Never once did your car ask you for flowers.
31:17Never once did it ask you if it looks fat, or did it get mad at you for leaving the seat up.
31:25Doesn't it deserve something special in return?
31:27In the name of progress, man has given up more and more control to machines of his own invention.
31:37Perhaps it's time to take some of it back.
31:44The five-speed sequential sport shift.
31:49On the TL from Acura.
31:53Designed with purpose.
31:56Driven by passion.
31:58There's a moment in every race.
32:02In every game.
32:05And every 60 minutes.
32:08When you can either quit, fold, or say to yourself,
32:14I can do this.
32:18A diamond?
32:32Is she serious?
32:34We've only been out once.
32:37And she wants a diamond?
32:39If you wanna get close, get the new Schick FX Diamond Razor.
32:43Alpha Diamond blades start sharper and stay sharper.
32:47For diamond closeness, shave after shave.
32:49Shave after shave.
32:50The diamond definitely brought us closer.
32:54The Schick FX Diamond.
32:56The feel of smart design.
32:58I'm joining up with him.
33:01I forbid you to go.
33:02You're not a child!
33:03You're my son!
33:04A father protecting his family.
33:06A son defending his beliefs.
33:08No!
33:09This Wednesday.
33:10When I request, sir, that you transfer my son here under my command.
33:14The battle comes home.
33:16Where'd you learn all that?
33:17Riding, shooting, scavenging?
33:18My father told me.
33:19Mel Gibson.
33:20This is not the conduct of a gentleman.
33:22I'll take that as a compliment.
33:24The Patriot opens everywhere Wednesday.
33:30Each week, the superstars of the World Wrestling Federation bring you a show that's out of this world.
33:38Featuring spectacular stunts.
33:43And amazing athletic feats.
33:46But remember, our superstars are trained professionals.
33:49And everything they do should take place here.
33:52You're not here.
33:55This has been a public service announcement for the World Wrestling Federation and this station.
34:02Back on heat moments ago, Linda McMahon arrived at the Boston Fleet Center and shocked us all with the reason for her arrival.
34:09Michael, I'm here tonight to do something I should have done a long time ago.
34:14I'm here to confront my husband.
34:16So, excuse me.
34:17What's the matter with you?
34:22My mom's here.
34:24Your mom is here.
34:25My mom's here and she says she wants to confront dad.
34:27It's something she should have done a long time ago.
34:31Long night.
34:32Yeah, as if your dad hasn't made this night bad enough.
34:34Now we gonna deal with your mom, too?
34:35This is great.
34:39Michael, I guess that that confrontation could happen any time.
34:41It's just one of the many stories that's unfolding back in Boston and the Fleet Center for the King of the Rink.
34:46Why now?
34:47Why there in Boston?
34:48Why couldn't Linda have done this over the weekend?
34:50Why now?
34:53We're getting ready for the biggest King of the Rink tournament in history.
34:5831 men, one woman have ended the King of the Rink tournament.
35:01Most superstars in history.
35:03King of the Rink is serious business.
35:04Boy, a lot of emotions running high here tonight.
35:06A lot of emotions running high here tonight.
35:0732 men, single denomination tournament.
35:10Three seconds kicked off the Superstar, the King of the Rink.
35:13One second.
35:14The King of the Rink has made many a career here in the World Wrestling Federation.
35:19Stone Cold Steve Austin launched into Superstar in 1996.
35:22Stone Cold, Stone Cold, King of the Rink.
35:25Austin 316 says, I just whipped your ass.
35:29When you think about Triple H, a former King of the Rink winner.
35:31I am that damn good.
35:35You win the King of the Rink, you become an immediate player.
35:38King of the Rink has been a great launching pad.
35:40Boy, everybody wants to be King of the Rink.
35:41You become an immediate player.
35:43Man, this is a star-studded line-up being formulated for the King of the Rink.
35:47Who will be this year's King of the Rink?
36:00Jericho's got it! Jericho's got it!
36:02And it gives it up!
36:03Jericho wins!
36:04Jericho goes to the King of the Rink!
36:07You can't believe it!
36:10Rokishi on the second rope!
36:11He's 400 plus!
36:12Not got it!
36:13Oh!
36:14Out of the chest!
36:15A Scotty 2-Honey!
36:17And Rokishi will join the field of the Elite 8.
36:23Oh, she hasn't known.
36:24Oh, no, no, please, not that.
36:25She decided not to go downstairs.
36:27And he's trying to make up.
36:28And the whole weight!
36:29Guerrero, inside Cradle!
36:31Well, Eddie Guerrero has advanced in the King of the Rink tournament.
36:35Oh, look out!
36:36There it is!
36:37A kick in the head!
36:38Out of nowhere!
36:39And it's over!
36:40Bull Buchanan!
36:41Quick as lightning advances into the final eight of the King of the Rink tournament!
36:46And look at this!
36:47Trish now with Jim Barney's leg!
36:48And Val from behind!
36:49And the Fisherman suplex!
36:50Hooks the leg!
36:51Two!
36:52Val Venus advances into the final eight!
36:54Thanks to Trish Stratus!
36:55Can you imagine Crash becoming the King of the Rink?
36:56That would be like a dream come true, that little guy!
36:57Oh, no!
36:58Briscoe, the 2x4!
36:59Crash Hawley!
37:00See, at this fall of occasion advances into the final eight of the King of the Rink!
37:15Oh, and there's the Olympic slam!
37:17Angle does his slam in!
37:19The line is locked!
37:20And Kurt Angle advances to the King of the Rink!
37:24I vow to become King of the Rink!
37:28Oh, and there's a tap out!
37:29From the Cooper Crossface!
37:30Chris Van Waal has advanced to the final eight!
37:35Man, this is a star-studded line-up, I think!
37:40Formulated for the King of the Rink!
37:41The King of the Rink has made many a career here in the World Wrestling Federation!
37:46Stone Cold Steve Austin launched into Superstar in 1996!
37:49What do you think of the Triple H and former King of the Rink winners?
37:52You win the King of the Rink, you become an immediate player!
37:56King of the Rink has been a great launching pad!
37:58Everybody wants to be King of the Rink!
37:59You become an immediate player!
38:00King of the Rink is serious business!
38:01Who will be this year's King of the Rink?
38:02King?
38:03Kurt!
38:04How does that make you feel?
38:05You know something, Coach?
38:06You may not have picked this up, but I got a little bit of a chill.
38:10You know, I've been striving my whole entire life to be the best.
38:12To be the best above 31 other competitors is something that is so...
38:19I mean, Coach, you're a fourth string announcer, you're at the top of your game.
38:21But could you imagine announcing the World Series, the Super Bowl, or even WrestleMania?
38:28Of course you can, because that will never happen.
38:29But me winning King of the Rink, that will happen.
38:30To answer your question, do I like the sound of King Kurt?
38:33Oh yeah, I do.
38:34Very much.
38:35But King Kurt, that is something that is so...
38:36I mean, Coach, you're a fourth string announcer, you're at the top of your game.
38:39But could you imagine announcing the World Series, the Super Bowl, or even WrestleMania?
38:45Of course you can, because that will never happen.
38:50But me winning King of the Rink, that will happen.
38:53To answer your question, do I like the sound of King Kurt?
38:57Oh yeah, I do.
38:59Very much.
39:00But King Kurt, WWF Champion, I like that even better.
39:09A diamond?
39:11Is she serious?
39:15We've only been out once, and she wants a diamond?
39:18If you want to get close, get the new Schick FX Diamond Razor.
39:23Alpha Diamond Blades start sharper and stay sharper.
39:26For diamond closeness, shave after shave.
39:29The diamond definitely brought us closer.
39:34The Schick FX Diamond.
39:36The feel of smart design.
39:38If you feel like your body chemistry is working overtime and you sweat more than other women, then you know it takes more than the strength of steel to deal with it.
39:48It takes the strength of platinum.
39:51Introducing secret platinum protection.
39:53This platinum strength secret is the strongest form of antiperspirant you can get from secret.
39:58It absorbs like a lotion.
40:00So its pH balance protection can work beneath the skin surface.
40:03New secret platinum protection.
40:05It's more than strong enough for them.
40:06It's strong enough for you.
40:08It's charging right at you.
40:11The Super Stoker CPS 1200 blasts the stream.
40:16And the CPS 1700 has two extreme settings.

41:07Bye-bye!
41:10She's a real beauty.
41:12And she never bugs you about spending so much time with the guys.
41:16She never complains about you watching football.
41:19She thinks a little gas is a good thing.
41:22Maybe she isn't a she after all.
41:25Here's to the perfect relationship.
41:28Here's how to keep it that way.
41:31Now can you believe this?
41:47My wife is gonna do what no WWF superstar in his right mind would do, confront me.
41:53Yeah.
41:54Sure I believe that.
41:56Does Shane know about this yet?
41:58I don't know if Shane knows about it.
41:59I'm not his keeper.
42:00I'm just his father.
42:01I don't know.
42:02Shane's dressed.
42:03He's ready for action.
42:04I'm gonna go find him.
42:05These cards, by the way, are damn good.
42:07Way to be concerned about tonight.
42:11Chris Jericho, King of the Ring.
42:13Great question, Andy.
42:14Let me make this real easy for you.
42:16Tonight, Y2J is gonna become the KOR in Y2K.
42:21And as for Kurt Angel, well, whether he works for the WWF, the IOC, or the ASPCA,
42:26he's always gonna be an ASS in my book.
42:29So, E-I-E-I-O, Coachy.
42:30Miracle in.
42:31And it's a line with a 568 pounds for you and production, D'Acolytes.
42:46Back here on Sunday Night Heat, D'Lo Brown and Curry Saturn already in the ring.
42:52The Acolytes are on their way.
42:54Bad news for Saturn and D'Lo.
42:57And it could be bad news as well for Mr. McMahon.
43:00Think about it, Michael.
43:01That confrontation with Linda could happen at any second.
43:04Well, I'm sure it could, but could you tell how Mr. McMahon wasn't too concerned about it?
43:09He's the king of his castle.
43:11I mean, no man in his right mind listens to his wife anyway.
43:15I don't.
43:17I know that you have spent many nights in the doghouse.
43:20Well, I know that, of course, Mr. McMahon didn't seem too concerned,
43:25but I wonder if Triple H was concerned with Mr. McMahon's nonchalant attitude
43:29about the, I guess, impending confrontation with Michael.
43:33Oh, man!
43:35For a Spice D'Lo.
43:38Well, I will say this for Linda McMahon.
43:41Every time she shows up and has some kind of announcement
43:44or something to say to Mr. McMahon, it always spells trouble.
43:48Bradshaw pounding away on the midsection on D'Lo Brown.
43:54Oh, man!
43:55Somebody call a shoemaker!
43:57Or an orthodontist.
43:59Bradshaw just broke his boot on D'Lo's chin.
44:02D'Lo sent across once again.
44:06Nice!
44:07Bradshaw dipped his head and D'Lo made him pay for it.
44:10D'Lo could find escape.
44:12Tag in Perry Satter, who comes in with a bad attitude.
44:16Perry Satter is irate that he is not part of the King of the Ring.
44:20The Boston native wanted nothing more than to achieve glory tonight in his hometown.
44:27But it will not be the case.
44:30That's it.
44:31I like Perry Satter.
44:32I like his style.
44:34Gotta love his intensity.
44:36Reckless disregard for the welfare of others.
44:39Uh-oh!
44:40Some would say that that's the calling card for the APA.
44:42Powerbomb time!
44:43No, sir! D'Lo in to break it up.
44:45And look at Satter!
44:47Now that strength, it certainly is.
44:50Let's go!
44:51So many superstars, eight superstars competing tonight in the King of the Ring.
44:56Diversity of styles, background.
44:59Oh, my goodness!
45:01Perry Satter just attacked that surgically-prepared knee of Bradshaw, hyperextending it.
45:08Now that's doing your homework.
45:10That's sadistic right there.
45:11That's great, I love it.
45:12Now what D'Lo and Perry Satter need to do is cut the ring off.
45:16Keep Bradshaw in their part of the ring.
45:18Oh!
45:19Oh!
45:20Bradshaw can't even put any weight on that leg.
45:23Don't let him tag, D'Lo.
45:24Who knows what kind of damage Perry Satter did to the ligaments and tendons in the knee of Bradshaw.
45:34That is really dissecting the human anatomy.
45:37Oh, man!
45:38Bradshaw firing out of the corner out of desperation.
45:41Bradshaw needs to tag.
45:43He's really favoring that leg, Kevin.
45:45Come on, Bradshaw!
45:47Bradshaw in so much pain, he can't even move.
45:50D'Lo in a lot of pain for the offensive onslaught of a wounded Bradshaw.
45:55I want to talk about pain.
45:56What kind of pain are the competitors in the King of the Ring tournament going to have to go through?
46:00Especially the winner.
46:01Back, Bain, and Farouk is in.
46:04Cleaning house.
46:05He may have to go on.
46:07Oh!
46:08This could be a two-on-one situation, but Barouk looks to be up to the tap.
46:11Look at Satter.
46:12Back with a power slam.
46:14Bridge German suplexing.
46:16Slow count.
46:17Bradshaw in to break it up.
46:20Bradshaw gingerly walking back to his corner.
46:25Dominator!
46:26Dominator!
46:27Dominator!
46:28Referee there just in the nick of time, but so is D'Lo.
46:32Now all four men are in.
46:34Way at it!
46:35Behind the referee's back!
46:36That's it!
46:37D'Lo black!
46:38Barouk in the sky high!
46:39Now Satter in position two!
46:41Bradshaw able to break it up.
46:42Come on, ref!
46:43Ref!
46:44Oh, this match is very quickly breaking down.
46:46Already having him toward the Dominator!
46:48Now Satter receives a powerbomb!
46:51Referee in position.
46:53This one is over.
46:56Here are your winners, The Acolytes!
47:02A real physical win for The Acolytes.
47:04Taxi Daxkira on Sunday on the Heat tonight and take the ring.
47:07What could be a very physical matchup.
47:09One could be downright hysterical.
47:11The first ever hard crazy guy back.
47:13Pat Paddickson against Gerald Brisco.
47:15And the only way to win is to strip your opponent down to their broad team.
47:23Oh, no!
47:24Frisco 2x4!
47:26I cannot believe this.
47:27We've got a new hardcore champion.
47:29It's Gerald Frisco.
47:30It's so good.
47:32You love me?
47:33Do you love me?
47:34Tell me you love me.
47:35You love me?
47:36I love you.
47:38Greatest shit.
47:39You love them all.
47:42What do you mean?
47:43You think I've heard your voice?
47:46Take that!
47:47Good God!
47:48Yeah!
47:49Patterson!
47:50Patterson!
47:51Ho for a briscoe!
47:53I'll be damned!
47:54Bring my hand!
47:55Bring my hand!
47:56And that Patterson is a hardcore champion!
47:58Where are you, Patterson?
48:12I know you're in here.
48:13Patterson, I know you're in here somewhere.
48:15Where are you?
48:16Did you freak that out, please?
48:20Gary!
48:20Gary!
48:21Gary!
48:21Have I got news for you?
48:22What do you want, people?
48:23What do you want?
48:24Gary, I know exactly where Pat Patterson is right now.
48:26What are you laughing at?
48:33That's no good Patterson's throw-by championship,
48:35and I'm going to get it back no matter what it takes.
48:39You ass!
48:43Hold it!
48:44You told me you love me!
48:46Come on!
48:46Come on!
48:47Come on!
48:47Come on!
48:48Come on!
48:49Come on!
48:49Come on!
48:50Come on!
48:51Come on!
48:52Come on!
48:53Come on!
48:55What the hell are you doing?
48:57What is the meaning of this?
48:59What about hardcore master?
49:01If this Sunday is the King of the Ring,
49:02we're going to have a first.
49:04We're going to have a...
49:05Our first hardcore evening gown.
49:09No!
49:10Now get out of here!
49:11I'm Mr. McMahon!
49:12Now get out of here!
49:13I'll see you Sunday.
49:15Wear a nice dress, Briscoe.
49:16I'll do this, Patterson.
49:19Ha-ha!
49:19WWF classic in the making, Kevin!
49:22Hey!
49:22Chair?
49:23Chair?
49:23Truth?
49:23Wait a minute.
49:24You've got to help me.
49:25I've got to defend my championship,
49:27hardcore championship,
49:29in a dress.
49:29You've got to talk to your dad.
49:31He's going to change that.
49:31Do you think for one second
49:32I give a damn about you and your lingerie?
49:35No, I'm taking on Kane,
49:36Rock,
49:37and The Undertaker,
49:38WWF championships.
49:39I have time for you, Patterson.
49:40We'll hear from The Rock next!
49:44This portion of the WWF
49:45is brought to you by
49:46Castrol GTX.
49:47Drive hard!
49:48Drive hard!
49:48Drive hard!
49:49Drive hard!
49:49Drive hard!

49:52How many one-liter bottles
49:55would you have to buy
49:56to equal the amount of water
49:57you get from one pure faucet mount?
50:01About 378.
50:04Pure faucet mount filters.
50:06Clean water on tap.
50:08This summer,
50:09the real world
50:10is getting a lot more animated.
50:12Oh my God!
50:13It's Rocky and Bullwinkle!
50:14We won't let you go.
50:17Kind of makes you feel discouraged.
50:18The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle.
50:21Start Friday through 30th
50:22at theaters everywhere.
50:27I like to dreamin'
50:31Ride between the sound machine
50:34You don't know
50:38I can weave and fly
50:40Like it's like a sweet little girl
50:42On a hand that's walking like it
50:45You don't know
50:46What we even see
50:48Why don't you tell
50:50What we even see
50:51That you're in a good spot, okay?
50:55What we even see
51:25It's a free world. Skate it. Grind session. Rated E for everyone.
51:50How much longer? We're working on it!
51:55Welcome back to Heat, everyone. You're looking live in Times Square, downtown New York City.
52:01The premier sports entertainment complex in New York City certainly is WWF New York,
52:06and we'll be going to WWF New York Live tonight, King.
52:09Who's arriving?
52:12That's McFully. McFully, a new haircut.
52:18One line at the WF New York.
52:20McFully and I are going to look back with you, King.
52:22Well, Subway presents the King of the Ring.
52:26Subway, the way it's there, it should be.
52:28The King of the Ring will be next exclusively on pay-per-view
52:31from the Sold Out Sleep Center in Boston, Matt Stewart.
52:34Well, ladies and gentlemen, the main event tonight,
52:36the King of the Ring on pay-per-view will be a six-man match for the WWF title.
52:41And remember one thing, this match is all about the most prestigious title in the game,
52:47the WWF Championship.
52:49This right here is the most important thing in my life.
52:56He is obsessed with the WWF Championship.
52:58So is everyone else.
52:59So is Rock, Undertaker, Kane.
53:02The Rock says this, he wants his title shot.
53:04I want my title shot.
53:09I want my shot.
53:10The big man held in Baxham must really be loving this.
53:14These three men are about to carry each other apart.
53:18Undertaker, Kane, Rock, what are you thinking?
53:22You cannot fight against each other.
53:25You've got to be united.
53:27These three men are going to join forces as one half of a six-man tag team at King of the Ring.
53:37Rock, Undertaker, Kane, as partners against who?
53:41Triple H, Shane McMahon, and Vince McMahon.
53:47We accept.
53:49We accept.
53:50What in the world has got into him?
53:52It's Linda.
53:53It's Linda McMahon.
53:53She's pushed him over the edge.
53:55Mr. McMahon got a fax from his wife, Linda McMahon.
53:59It can only be bad news.
54:01My charming darling wife CEO states that Kane, Undertaker, and Rock should be competing for the WWF Championship this Sunday.
54:10I'll tell you what.
54:11If either Shane, Triple H, or myself defeat either Kane, Undertaker, or Rock this Sunday,
54:18then as Triple H stated, he will defend the WWF title in July against the winner of the King of the Ring.
54:24If, however, Kane, Undertaker, or Rock defeat either one of the three of us this Sunday as the King of the Ring,
54:33then that person will unquestionably be the World Wrestling Federation champion.
54:39Oh, my God.
54:40Did you hear that?
54:42That's me.
54:42The problem on the line this Sunday as the King of the Ring.
54:46What is Vince McMahon doing?
54:48Triple H is livid.
54:49You know, Daddy is screwing everything up.
54:53If they beat either Shane or Vince in the match, does Triple H lose his title?
54:57Absolutely.
54:58The tension perhaps between Triple H and his father-in-law, Mr. McMahon.
55:02Being able to become the WWF Champion by pinning either Shane or you, Dad, makes me want to puke.
55:14As King of the Ring, even though the WWF Championship is on the line, I have all the confidence in the world in us.
55:23It seems to me that on Linda's team, nobody can trust anyone.
55:32One way or the other, the Rock will do all he can to one day once again become WWF Champion.
55:38It's all about the World Wrestling Federation title.
55:40So, a man's got to do what a man's got to do.
55:44A rock and the Undertaker won't the WWF title, but so does the Big Red Machine.
55:50Boy, you know what this shows you?
55:52Vince McMahon is still a genius.
55:54Oh, the most electrifying man in sports entertainment.
55:58Be able to put his ego on the back burner Sunday night.
56:01Will he be able to coexist with the Undertaker and Kane?
56:05Their egos won't allow one to win at the expense of the other two.
56:12It's no advance of the faction is cooking.
56:14Will it be the end of the line for this awesome alliance, the Rock, Undertaker, and Kane?
56:19Will there be energy for the WWF title is on the line this Sunday on Kane Purview?
56:28Rock, tonight you're in a six-man tag team matchup.
56:33Your partners, the Undertaker, and Kane.
56:35But although this is a tag team match, it's not about tag teams.
56:38It's about individual goals.
56:40And the individual goal is becoming WWF Champion.
56:43Finally, the Rock has come back to Boston.
57:03You know, the Rock has said it before, and he's going to say it again.
57:11Tonight, at King of the Ring, no more Vince and Shane running their mouths.
57:15No more Triple H running their mouths.
57:17No more $2.
57:18No.
57:1950 cents.
57:20No.
57:21No more 4 minus 4.
57:22Carry the 1.
57:23Oh, keep the change.
57:24Dirty s*** running their mouths.
57:26Because after tonight, you jabronis won't have anything to run your mouth about because there
57:37is nothing.
57:38And the Rock means nothing that you're going to have to say.
57:41Because right here in Boston, Massachusetts, right here in the middle of the Fleet Center,
57:46right here in the middle of the People's Ring, the Rock guarantees to become WWF Champion.
57:52Just bring it, jabronis.
58:19Just bring it.
58:20If you smell what the Rock is cooking.
58:29Will we have a new WWF Champion crowned tonight here in the Fleet Center in Boston?
58:36This arena that sold out in less than five minutes, King, months ago in anticipation for
58:41this awesome main event.
58:44Well, we definitely will have a new King of the Ring crowned tonight.
58:47Will we have a new WWF Champion?
58:49The Rock sounded mighty confident, but he's got a huge mountain to climb if he wants to
58:54be the WWF Champion tonight.
58:55Rock has guaranteed that he will become the new WWF Champion tonight.
58:59The only way to find out is to join us on Pay Per View.
59:01As the King said, definitely a new King of the Ring crowned tonight.
59:04One of eight super athletes that have made it to the Elite Eights.
59:07Plus, the tag team titles on the line tonight.
59:09And we can't forget Patterson and Briscoe in drag.
59:14Did you have to remind me?
59:15I was trying to forget that.
59:16But it's going to happen.
59:17Well, so look, the atmosphere is electrifying tonight.
