00:00:00The World Wrestling Federation, for over 50 years, the revolutionary force in sports entertainment.

00:00:15Vince McMahon Sr. is a legend as far as our sport is concerned.

00:00:21You came to me in a dream last night.

00:00:29Welcome to Wrestlemania!

00:00:31You were standing in a brilliant light.

00:00:37This is 168,000 here to the sky.

00:00:40One minute here, but the next few weren't gone.

00:00:50I thought you could stay, but I was so wrong.

00:00:56This is a serious threat the World Wrestling Federation has ever known.

00:01:00If we don't pull it together, I will see all of you in hell.

00:01:05In hell, in hell.

00:01:06There is no next year, there is no tomorrow.

00:01:10Shane and I just couldn't wait for you to die.

00:01:14The World Wrestling Federation will wipe the alliance off the face of this earth.

00:01:25The end is here.

00:01:27Vince McMahon will see the WWE.

00:01:30WWE Superstar is gonna deny us from our destiny.

00:01:35The WWE is here!

00:01:46Ladies and gentlemen, earlier today, the World Wrestling Federation corporate jet landed here in Charlotte.

00:02:01Charlotte, and there you saw WWF Commissioner Mick Foley awaiting the arrival of the plane.

00:02:07Mick was summoned to the corporate jet by WWF owner Vince McMahon.

00:02:25Hi, Mr Foley. How are you doing? How are you doing?

00:02:28Good to me.

00:02:28The corporate man is waiting for you right upstairs.

00:02:30Oh yes, he's right upstairs. Thank you.

00:02:31You're welcome.

00:02:44Mmm.

00:02:47No, no.

00:02:48Vince, I don't want any fruit from you. As a matter of fact, I don't really want anything from you,

00:02:53except maybe, maybe I want you to name a chair on this corporate jet after me. After all,

00:03:00it's guys like me with my blood and my sweat who paid for this bad boy, right? So maybe you could

00:03:05be sitting on the Cactus Jack couch or the mankind chair. How does that sound, Vince?

00:03:10Vince, that's a hell of an idea. Yeah.

00:03:12I like that. Um, how about, how about the dude loved the toilet?

00:03:19I like that.

00:03:20That's indicative of why you are who you are, Vince. A billionaire, your own corporate jet,

00:03:24the pioneer of sports entertainment. Do you know how I think you should remember, Vince?

00:03:29Your greatest accomplishment. The fact that you single-handedly took a guy who loved this company,

00:03:34who would do anything for it, risked his life, defended the company. You were able to take that guy

00:03:39and you made him no longer care. And I'm talking about me, Vince. You up on your philosophers?

00:03:44A little play-doh for you. How about this? Power should be confined to those who are not in love with

00:03:51it. Does that hit home for you, Vince? Does that hit home? You know what it means? It means I'm not

00:03:54gonna stick around and wait for the WWF to fall on its ass because of you. It means that I no longer

00:04:00want to be your WWF commissioner. It means, Vince McMahon, that I resign.

00:04:09You resign? I resign.

00:04:12You can't resign, Vince. Why can't I resign, Vince?

00:04:15Cuz, Mick Foley, you are- Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:04:18Are you gonna try to fire me? Would that make you feel good inside? Would that make you feel like a big man?

00:04:23I'll tell you what, Vince. Go ahead and fire me. You know why? Because the outcome is exactly the

00:04:28same. The outcome is when I step foot off this plane and my foot touches that ground,

00:04:33I no longer work for the WWF. I no longer answer to you. It means, Vince, you and me are through

00:04:38for good. And that's not a bad thing. It's a good thing. So give it to me, Vince. Fire me.

00:04:47It's gonna make you feel good inside. Take care, Mick. Good luck.

00:05:00And have a nice day.

00:05:17My arms is the soul of me.

00:05:18You walk by, and you see me laying face.

00:05:26Your head by the door.

00:05:28In your head.

00:05:29The World Wrestling Federation is on the air, yes, I said, the World Wrestling Federation is alive and well here on the new TNN.

00:05:49Our fans around the world, including WWF New York, extremely excited about the outcome of the Survivor Series.

00:06:08And I am too, ladies and gentlemen, there is no Paul Heyman here tonight.

00:06:13The WWF victorious in the winner-take-all match at the Survivor Series.

00:06:18I have no idea who will occupy this chair tonight, nor what will happen tonight.

00:06:23I got a feeling, or I've got to find out.

00:06:27No chance, but that's what you've got.

00:06:30And this is the ovation for the owner of the World Wrestling Federation to start his day early,

00:06:36when I'm telling you that will be in the middle of the former WWF Commissioner Mick Foley.

00:06:44Kurt Angle turned his back on the Alliance at the Survivor Series.

00:06:49Kurt Angle screwed Stone Cold Steve Austin right into the rock bottom.

00:06:55And the rock at the deciding one, two, three over the Rattlesnake.

00:07:00Thanks to Kurt Angle's unplanned, unsuspecting, unwarranted perhaps assist what really is going on there.

00:07:11All I know is that thank God for Kurt Angle, because Angle apparently a red, white and blue in more ways than one.

00:07:19Oh yeah, despite Mick Foley's resignation, tonight is a night for celebration.

00:07:26No doubt about it.

00:07:29Because the World Wrestling Federation survived the Survivor Series.

00:07:38And with that in mind, we owe one man a debt of gratitude.

00:07:42Perhaps we will never be able to repay.

00:07:49The one man who, more than any other, showed his true colors.

00:07:57The one man who, more than any other, indeed deserves your accolades, deserves your applause here tonight.

00:08:05And that one man is Kurt Angle.

00:08:15Can't argue that point, quite frankly, folks.

00:08:19Because of Kurt Angle, the Alliance is dead.

00:08:23Because of Kurt Angle, ECW is dead.

00:08:31Because of Kurt Angle, WCW is dead.

00:08:40The only remnant of WCW that still exists is the championship that's wrapped around the rock's waist.

00:08:48And from this night forward, we'll no longer be known as the WCW title.

00:08:56No, it's simply known as the World Championship.

00:09:00Yes, not only are we making changes in titles here tonight,

00:09:04there's going to be lots of dramatic, drastic changes that take place right here tonight.

00:09:11One of those changes will be, right here in this ring, the very first member you will witness,

00:09:22who will join the Vince McMahon Kiss My Ass Club.

00:09:29Now, maybe you've never heard of that club.

00:09:34It just started this morning.

00:09:35See, that club is simply this.

00:09:40I'm allowing one member of the Alliance

00:09:45who seeks to be employed by the WWF.

00:09:49That one member of the Alliance

00:10:07who is not a champion.

00:10:08And by the way, the champions are already in the WWF.

00:10:11that one member will walk into this ring and literally kiss Mr. McMahon's ass.

00:10:25But speaking of the Alliance,

00:10:27that's nothing, that's nothing than what's in store for the leader of the Alliance.

00:10:43The moment Stone Cold Steve Austin walks into this building tonight,

00:10:51I will execute my plans.

00:10:52And speaking of changes, you would note there's an empty chair next to good old J.R.

00:11:11Hello, J.R.

00:11:12Right now, I'd like to address that empty chair,

00:11:22just to show you that I am a benevolent individual

00:11:26and not the tyrant that a lot of people think.

00:11:30I would now like to invite into the ring,

00:11:32I would like to invite into the ring, Paul Heyman.

00:11:38Come on down, Paul.

00:11:40Paul Heyman, I thought we were through with that.

00:11:45Paul Heyman, come on down.

00:11:46Paul Heyman's smiling about it.

00:12:02What does he have to smile about?

00:12:11Heyman's side lost at the Alliance.

00:12:12I thought it was winner take all.

00:12:22I got away with it.

00:12:26I got away with it.

00:12:27I got away with it.

00:12:29I got away with it.

00:12:31Paul, Paul, come up here for a minute.

00:12:35I'll be right back.

00:12:44Come on in.

00:12:51You know, I just for the record,

00:12:55I appreciate people who speak their mind.

00:12:57That's me, and I can do it right there.

00:13:04And you know, I remember some of the things you said about me just the other day.

00:13:11I'm all right with that.

00:13:13I'm a First Amendment advocate.

00:13:18So exercising the benefit of my First Amendment rights,

00:13:23I would like to inform you that you're fired.

00:13:27All right.

00:13:29Thank God.

00:13:35Good riddance to bad rubbish.

00:13:39You're fired.

00:13:41Down in my ring.

00:13:42Cuckoo Cuckoo Cuckoo the Walrus is gone.

00:14:07Now, now he wants to fight.

00:14:09And Vince McMahon is going to tear Heyman completely up.

00:14:18He's been fired.

00:14:19Come on, you son of a bitch.

00:14:28Get the hell out of here.

00:14:32Come on, you son of a bitch.

00:14:38Get the hell out of here.

00:14:44All right, I want to introduce you,

00:14:53Mr. Heyman, to your replacement.

00:14:56Come on down, Jerry the King.

00:14:59There is a God.

00:15:04The King is back.

00:15:08All is right with the world at least at the announce table.

00:15:14Thank God.

00:15:16And a standing ovation, and

00:15:22a standing ovation, and deservedly so, for Jerry the King Lawler.

00:15:41Standing ovation for the King.

00:15:43Good to see you.

00:15:59What's that hair?

00:16:01You think you remember how to do this?

00:16:03Let me see.

00:16:04I hope that idiot hadn't screwed up this chair so bad that nobody can do this.

00:16:09But, JR, it's good to be the King, and the King is back.

00:16:13The King is back, ladies and gentlemen.

00:16:15This is going to be one hellacious ride tonight.

00:16:18And let me say this very quickly, JR.

00:16:20You and I have known each other for a long time.

00:16:22Yep.

00:16:22And I say this from the bottom of my heart.

00:16:25It's over between me and you.

00:16:26You understand that?

00:16:27I got it.

00:16:28We don't see an eye on much.

00:16:29Okay.

00:16:30So don't get started, JR.

00:16:34We are ready for a WWF Women's Championship match.

00:16:39The following contest is given to the World Wrestling Federation Women's Championship.

00:16:46Introducing the challenger, being accompanied by Matt Hardy, Lita.

00:16:51You know, King lost out the Survivor Series.

00:16:53Lita and Jeff Hardy were having a talk about their pending Survivor Series matchups.

00:16:58When, as you will see here, Matt Hardy came out of Team WWF's locker room.

00:17:03Yeah.

00:17:04Now, that conversation went on, and Jeff and Matt had a real talk and Lita about Matt's

00:17:09attitude, the pressure on the winner, all-call situations.

00:17:14Now, the Hardys leave, but watch the door.

00:17:16Watch Team WWF.

00:17:18This is where Matt Hardy came from.

00:17:19Yeah.

00:17:20And there's Trish.

00:17:23Now, did you find that book coincidental?

00:17:25Well, I don't know.

00:17:28I can't remember the last time I was here, JR.

00:17:29I don't think the guys dressed with the girls, did they?

00:17:31No, they still don't, as a matter of fact.

00:17:33Not co-ed yet?

00:17:35Not yet.

00:17:36And making a way to the ring, the new World Wrestling

00:17:40balance in the women's champion, Trish Stratus.

00:17:43Well, Trish Stratus survived a six-pack challenge game.

00:17:47With me?

00:17:49I'm with you, yeah.

00:17:50Okay.

00:17:50Woo-hoo!

00:17:51And we'll take it back to the Survivor Series, and Trish used her Stratus faction.

00:17:57That's three-four-paw-dog to put Ivory down and become the WWF Women's Champion.

00:18:03And she showed so much emotion, did Trish.

00:18:06Look at Trish.

00:18:07That ain't all she showed.

00:18:08Woo-hoo!

00:18:10Look at Trish!

00:18:12JR, what a welcome back for the King!

00:18:15Puppies galore!

00:18:16Woo-hoo!

00:18:18Man!

00:18:19Man, the puppies are about to get, anyway, caught an elbow tie at Lita with the opportunity

00:18:24here to win the WWF Women's Championship.

00:18:27And certainly Lita has a tremendous opportunity against Trish in this matchup.

00:18:34King, I cannot believe how we have started this night.

00:18:37Well, this is a great way to start the match!

00:18:39And there's a take down, the spear!

00:18:42I don't know Jeff Hardy at ringside.

00:18:45He was injured at the Survivor Series in that hellacious cage match with the Dudleys.

00:18:49But the Dudleys won and consolidated both tag team title championships.

00:18:58The Dudleys got all the gold now.

00:19:00Watch the puppies!

00:19:01Don't hurt the puppies!

00:19:02Puppies can bruise in the near fall there.

00:19:05I don't know what's going on exactly between, surely there's nothing going on between Trish

00:19:09and Matt Hardy because last time I saw him, Matt and Lita were swapping spit.

00:19:14Inside cradle, inside cradle in a near fall.

00:19:17I love inside cradle.

00:19:19Matt Hardy has been acting a little unusual lately.

00:19:22I think he contributed all to the pressure of the Survivor Series and the fact that

00:19:27everybody's job was on the line last night.

00:19:29Speaking of jobs and speaking of kissing, JR, wait a minute.

00:19:32Another turn.

00:19:33And referee Jack Dome found two.

00:19:35Who do you think is gonna be joining?

00:19:36Who do you think is gonna be joining?

00:19:38Who do you think is gonna be joining Vince McMahon's Kiss My Ass Club tonight?

00:19:42Well, somebody's gonna have to kiss Vince's rear end to get a job.

00:19:46That's gonna be great.

00:19:48Hey, I'd volunteer to have one of those matches with Trish or Lita.

00:19:51I bet you would.

00:19:53I'll start working on that right away.

00:19:55Please do.

00:19:55I think Trish is working on it.

00:20:00Lita kind of woman handling Trish here and this is Trish's first time.

00:20:05Man, Lita walked right into that one.

00:20:08Hard shot right to the chest.

00:20:10Up you go.

00:20:11Maybe the pictorial.

00:20:12Look out.

00:20:12Boom.

00:20:13And Trish tried the elbow.

00:20:15I don't think she got much of a Lita there.

00:20:17Lita trying to avoid the contact.

00:20:18Uh-oh.

00:20:20Watch yourself, Trish.

00:20:21He's going up.

00:20:23Look out, look out, look out.

00:20:24Whoa.

00:20:25My God.

00:20:26And Lita, a member of Team Extreme.

00:20:31That was pretty extreme.

00:20:31Whoa.

00:20:32Getting on that top rope and Mad Hardy helping his girlfriend Lita up.

00:20:36She got 3D last Thursday.

00:20:39A baseball slide through caught Matt in the face.

00:20:41He's got some loose teeth from that cage match with the Dudleys at the Survivor Series.

00:20:45There'll be no kissing tonight.

00:20:48I'll take your place.

00:20:49Go out of the way, Matt.

00:20:51My mouth is always open for business.

00:20:52Did I ever tell you that, Jayler?

00:20:53I have heard something to that effect.

00:20:55Look at this.

00:20:55I don't know how good a condition that Lita is in, but Matt just put her back on the apron.

00:21:01And a backslide, a backslide.

00:21:05Did she get it?

00:21:06Look at Trish.

00:21:08Here is your winner, and still the World Wrestling Federation Women's Champion, Trish Stratus.

00:21:13You know, King of I didn't know better.

00:21:15I would think that Lita really was a little groggy, and I'm not sure Matt Hardy made the

00:21:20best decision in helping Lita back in the ring as quickly as he did.

00:21:26Well, they both got sore mouths.

00:21:29Come here, Trish, let me give you a congratulatory kiss.

00:21:31We haven't changed a bit.

00:21:34Woo-hoo!

00:21:35I can't believe we just got a pull, man.

00:21:38You guys know anything about this?

00:21:39You got unity, buddy.

00:21:40I don't got to worry.

00:21:41You got unity.

00:21:41You got no worries.

00:21:42Gentlemen, hey.

00:21:43How you doing?

00:21:45Wow, how about this?

00:21:46The last remnants of the Alliance, standing right before me.

00:21:50Undisputed tag team champions.

00:21:53Look at this, WWE European champion.

00:21:55Yeah, Christian, Test wins the immunity battle royal.

00:22:00Aren't you proud of yourself?

00:22:01Can't fire me.

00:22:03Yeah, you're right, I can't.

00:22:05And Rob Van Dam, the WWF hardcore champion.

00:22:14You know, Rob, I asked you, I invited you to join the World Wrestling Federation some time ago,

00:22:20and you turned me down.

00:22:23So since you're the hardcore champion, you must like doing things the hard way.

00:22:28So not that I hold any animosity or any grudges against any of you guys.

00:22:33I don't want you to think that, all right?

00:22:35But tonight, you, RBD, you will participate in a handicap tag team tables match.

00:22:46That's Rob Van Dam against the Dudley boys.

00:22:54Whoa, do you want us to fight each other?

00:22:57Exactly, and your match is next.

00:23:00Are you serious?

00:23:01Next?

00:23:02Deadly serious.

00:23:06Next.

00:23:06Looks good.

00:23:07You better get to it.

00:23:12Next, Rob.

00:23:12All right, limber up, kid.

00:23:19Vince, sorry, Mr. McMahon, I just want to tell you how proud I am to be the European champion,

00:23:27and what an honor it is to be working with you again.

00:23:34Get out of my sight.

00:23:35We are back live here in Charlotte on Raw.

00:23:42Waiting for the arrival, quite frankly, King of Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:23:45Yeah, and you heard what Mr. McMahon said, didn't you?

00:23:47He's gonna execute his plans when Stone Cold arrives.

00:23:50Stone Cold, the WWF champion, even though he's on the losing alliance side.

00:23:55Execute, JR, the word execute.

00:23:57I got it.

00:23:58Woo-hoo.

00:24:00The following is a handicap tag team tables match.

00:24:03Making his way to the ring.

00:24:05From Battle Creek, Michigan, weighing in at 235 pounds.

00:24:09He is the World Wrestling Federation hardcore champion, Rob Van Dam.

00:24:16You know, King is up for first way.

00:24:18Mr. McMahon's having some fun with his matchup.

00:24:20Taking RVD by both the Dudleys in this table match.

00:24:25This ain't gonna be pretty for RVD.

00:24:27No way.

00:24:28I'll tell you what, tonight, Raw is being brought to you by Gundam.

00:24:31Check out the latest Gundam action figures at gundamofficial.com.

00:24:35And by Xbox.

00:24:36Visit xbox.com.

00:24:38The future of video games has arrived.

00:24:41And by lugs, boots, and shoes.

00:24:43Tough enough to handle anything.

00:24:46And being accompanied by Stacy Keebler, a combined weight of 565 pounds,

00:25:01they are the undefeated tag team champions, the Dudley Boys.

00:25:07As a result of their hard-fought cage match victory over the Hardys,

00:25:12the Dudleys are the undefeated tag team champions,

00:25:15being escorted by what has been referred to as the Duchess of Dudleyville,

00:25:19the leggy Stacy Keebler.

00:25:20The leggy Stacy Keebler.

00:25:22Well, I know everything there is to know about the Dudleys,

00:25:24but I don't know a lot about Stacy.

00:25:26You're gonna have to fill me in on Stacy there, JR.

00:25:29Well, she's got long legs.

00:25:30Where's she from?

00:25:31I know it's not the Virgin Islands, but where would she be from?

00:25:34Well, I don't really know, but I think from Baltimore.

00:25:37You think?

00:25:38Yeah, she's not married.

00:25:39Really?

00:25:40There you go.

00:25:42Jeff Hardy, as we mentioned earlier, she and I can never be a couple.

00:25:45What is that?

00:25:46Too much of an age difference.

00:25:47I wish she were younger.

00:25:49Right hands on the Dudleys now.

00:25:51And no laughing matter, the Dudleys have a two-on-one advantage here on RVD.

00:25:55Both these men, all three of these men, former ECW stars, stars in the Alliance as well.

00:26:02And Mr. McMahon, Ken Foss don't count here.

00:26:04Now remember, RVD's gonna put one of the Dudleys through a table, King.

00:26:08Or obviously, the Dudleys crash RVD through a table, and this match is over.

00:26:13A little mistake there by D, but RVD's gotta capitalize when and where he can

00:26:18against arguably the greatest tag team to ever step foot in the squared circle.

00:26:22Look at this, and just think, JR.

00:26:24Whoa!

00:26:25Yeah, that's pretty impressive.

00:26:26Rolling thunder by RVD.

00:26:27Just a few minutes ago, these three guys were sitting in the back discussing their future.

00:26:31As best buddies, and they're out here beating each other's brains out.

00:26:35Thanks to Mr. McMahon.

00:26:36As we said, in some sort of perverse way, Mr. McMahon, I don't wanna say punishing these guys,

00:26:41but- You can go ahead and say it.

00:26:43He's punishing these guys.

00:26:44RVD had a chance to join the WWF several weeks ago.

00:26:48Even was in, had a meeting with Mr. McMahon in a limo, and this got turned down,

00:26:53and Mr. McMahon doesn't think no very kindly.

00:26:55You got that right.

00:26:57You think he's got anything in mind for punishing Stacy Keebler?

00:27:00Woo-hoo!

00:27:01He's volunteering to be the- I'll give him some ideas.

00:27:03Man!

00:27:05You'd probably have her stay after school if you were the principal.

00:27:07She's a bad girl, she'll have to go to my room.

00:27:10A shot to the kidneys by Devon Dudley.

00:27:12Look out, this is it.

00:27:13And- My gosh!

00:27:14Knickbreaker.

00:27:15My gosh!

00:27:15What a neckbreaker by Devon Dudley.

00:27:18Hit the table, that's it.

00:27:19And the Dudleys, the Undisputed Tag Team Champions.

00:27:22There you go.

00:27:24Take it easy there, Bubba.

00:27:26He's got a short threes in it.

00:27:27Look at this, Pete.

00:27:28What's the neck?

00:27:30My gosh!

00:27:32I don't know how you landed that on her.

00:27:33That could not only end the match, that could end the career.

00:27:35And the Dudleys getting out the wood, their masters at it.

00:27:38They got wood already.

00:27:40RVD!

00:27:41RVD!

00:27:43Now chanting for RVD, maybe too little too late with one man against the Dudleys.

00:27:48I don't know any one man that can survive the Dudleys in a handicapped tables match.

00:27:54Not even RVD.

00:27:55Right after that shot.

00:27:56Uh-oh, wait a minute.

00:27:57There's still some life left!

00:27:58RVD put the brakes on the-

00:28:00Oh, man!

00:28:02Perhaps attempted 3D and knocking down Bubba with that spinning heel kick.

00:28:06I don't know how RVD is still standing after landing on the back of his neck the way he did.

00:28:10That son of a gun is very resilient.

00:28:12Arguably the most popular guy in the entire alliance when they were in business.

00:28:16But if you just join us, folks, the alliance lost at the Survivor Series, and they went belly up.

00:28:22Yeah, being popular in the alliance doesn't mean that much.

00:28:24They just had a cult following, and you know, a cult means not enough people to even be a minority.

00:28:29Uh-oh, look out.

00:28:31RVD's got a chair.

00:28:31Look at this!

00:28:33And Dudleys right in the face of Bubba Ray Dudley.

00:28:38I think I saw a molar fly out.

00:28:40RVD is about as unorthodox as anybody will ever see his style is unlike anybody else.

00:28:45And the crowd again chanting for Van Damme.

00:28:47RVD, RVD!

00:28:49He's still awaiting the arrival of Stone Cold Steve Austin, who is still the reigning WWF champion.

00:28:54Look out.

00:28:55I'm waiting, finding out who's gonna join the Kiss My Ass Club.

00:28:59Somebody's got to kiss this man's ass tonight, apparently, to keep a job and get a job.

00:29:03And look at those educated feet.

00:29:04The auditorium got him, and the valetorium got him.

00:29:07And D-Bot on the table, this is what cost the Hardys, in my view, the tag team titles, my god.

00:29:14Wait a minute, you gotta be kidding me.

00:29:15Van Damme can't get there from here.

00:29:17No way!

00:29:18That's one on the other side of the league.

00:29:20Wait, take it!

00:29:21My gosh!

00:29:23Van Damme attempting the five star frog splash, crashed and burned, but the rules state that you've got to be driven through the table by your opponent.

00:29:32Also, he's still alive!

00:29:34Man, well, barely.

00:29:35In the match.

00:29:37Van Damme is still alive, and the match is right.

00:29:41Man, he has, I don't know what's gonna be left of RVD, and somewhere, I'm sure Mr. McMahon is enjoying this,

00:29:49as Van Damme, barely coherent, if he is.

00:29:52Do you think Mr. McMahon even has a favorite in this match?

00:29:55That's it.

00:29:57I'm gonna doubt he's really punishing Van Damme.

00:30:00That table didn't break.

00:30:01You're gonna give him another one?

00:30:02Well, of course you don't succeed, you try again, and this match emphatically is over.

00:30:07Here are your winners, the Dudley boys.

00:30:12Wow.

00:30:13Well, Mr. McMahon made the match.

00:30:17Had these two former, three former alliance members fighting each other in this very dangerous table match.

00:30:24And RVD may never say no to Mr. McMahon again.

00:30:27I am very, very impressed.

00:30:29Was that for the table match?

00:30:31No, it was Stacey Bigler.

00:30:32My goodness.

00:30:36Come on, back in a minute.

00:30:37And here's the closing moments, this is unbelievable.

00:30:40Look, I think this is what did RVD in right here.

00:30:42His head and face came up right through the table and the Dudleys on the second try.

00:30:49Throwed RVD through the table.

00:30:51The Dudleys win it.

00:30:52The Undisputed Tag Team Taken.

00:30:54Hey, there's Kurt Angle, the man that saved the WWF.

00:30:58Single-handedly.

00:30:59Just arriving.

00:31:01Big smile on his face.

00:31:02Guys ought to be lined up to kiss his feet.

00:31:04How am I doing?

00:31:07How am I doing?

00:31:10I'm the man who single-handedly saved the World Wrestling Federation.

00:31:14I'm the one fully responsible for you and the entire company still having jobs.

00:31:20How am I doing?

00:31:22I'm doing freaking great.

00:31:24By the way, can you tell me where I can find The Rock?

00:31:28Yeah, down that hallway and to the left.

00:31:32How am I doing?

00:31:34Dork.

00:31:38And we are back, ladies and gentlemen, here on Raw.

00:31:40You're looking live at Times Square, the heart of Times Square in New York City,

00:31:44the home of WWF New York.

00:31:45It's certainly a celebratory time for all of us here in the WWF.

00:31:49The King is back and Little McMahon in a very festive mood as well.

00:31:53Well, you know, being a lady and a mom, she may have had mixed emotions after last night.

00:31:57But the bottom line is that WWF is still in business and

00:32:01She's celebrating the WWF New York.

00:32:02Uh-huh.

00:32:03Okay, great.

00:32:03Hi, how are you?

00:32:10Well?

00:32:10Well, what?

00:32:16Don't you have something to say to me?

00:32:21Like what?

00:32:21Like, thank you, Kurt, for starts.

00:32:26Uh, thank you for saving my job.

00:32:30Thank you for saving the day.

00:32:32Thank you for keeping the WWF in business.

00:32:35I mean, you did your little part getting a pinfall.

00:32:38But hello, guy who made it happen, that'd be me.

00:32:45Let The Rock make one thing perfectly clear to you.

00:32:47Huh?

00:32:48The Rock didn't want, ask for, or need your help.

00:32:52The Rock would have beaten Stone Cold Steve Austin on his own.

00:32:54Besides, at what point did you decide not to let The Rock or anyone else in the WWF

00:33:01in on your little plan with Vince McMahon?

00:33:04When was that?

00:33:05Well, Mr. McMahon said-

00:33:06What Mr. McMahon said!

00:33:08Mr. McMahon said!

00:33:13Well, The Rock says, for one month,

00:33:16one long month, you went undercover in the Alliance.

00:33:20Yeah.

00:33:21For one month, you bashed the WWF, The Rock's WWF teammates in the head with chairs.

00:33:27You bashed The Rock in the head with chairs for one month.

00:33:32Lied.

00:33:33All so you can have your selfish big moment.

00:33:37Uh, yeah.

00:33:39I mean, boo-hoo.

00:33:42So I dented your head a little bit.

00:33:44Don't you think it was worth it?

00:33:45Come on, Rock.

00:33:51You know what, Kurt?

00:33:55It was well worth it.

00:33:56It was well worth it, bashing the WWF in the head with chairs.

00:34:00Bashing The Rock in the head with chairs.

00:34:02Beating up on The Rock for one month, just to save the company.

00:34:05Well worth it, to save the company.

00:34:08Beating up on The Rock.

00:34:10Well, now that the company's saved, why don't you try and beat up on The Rock tonight?

00:34:17Wait a minute.

00:34:18You're challenging me to a match.

00:34:26For your title.

00:34:31You know, Rock, I didn't think I'd be saying this to you today, but thank you.

00:34:38See, now that I did save the company, I'll have no problem beating you up just for fun.

00:34:48Whoa.

00:34:50Don't leave yet.

00:34:52Rock's not done.

00:34:53The Rock has one more thing to say to you.

00:34:57You may have a lot of people fooled, a lot of people fooled.

00:35:02Gullible, milk drinking, saving the day, Kurt Angle.

00:35:06The Rock will never trust Vince McMahon, and The Rock can look in your eyes.

00:35:18And no, he can never trust you.

00:35:21You're no savior, Kurt Angle.

00:35:23You're an asshole.

00:35:36Wow.

00:35:37Oh my gosh.

00:35:38And we're waiting the arrival of Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:35:42And apparently The Rock and Angle are going to get it on here tonight.

00:35:45Is this Austin?

00:35:49Well, King, that's not Austin.

00:35:51No, it's not.

00:35:51Wait a minute.

00:35:52And that's no limo either.

00:35:57I can't believe we have to drive ourselves, Shane.

00:36:02Why do you think Dad wants us here in the first place?

00:36:04I don't know.

00:36:04You think maybe he's going to give us our jobs back?

00:36:08Let's go.

00:36:12The new TNN in the Charlotte Coliseum.

00:36:14The King's back, we're waiting Stone Cold.

00:36:16The McMahon children have arrived, and King, there's an unusual confrontation coming up tonight.

00:36:21Got that right.

00:36:23I can't believe, first of all, that Shane and Stephanie were driving themselves around?

00:36:29We've got a lot of business to conduct here tonight.

00:36:31We've already conducted some.

00:36:33Much more to come.

00:36:35And since it looks like we're going to have a world championship match right here in this ring,

00:36:40The Rock versus Kurt Angle here tonight.

00:36:42There's the final.

00:36:44Live tonight.

00:36:46I'd like to continue with some other business.

00:36:49Unfortunately, Stone Cold is not here as of yet.

00:36:56But I couldn't help but notice who just arrived.

00:37:00So therefore, I would like to request that my son and my daughter, Shane and Stephanie McMahon, come to the ring at this moment.

00:37:14Oh, boy.

00:37:15Man, this could be interesting.

00:37:17No music, no fanfare.

00:37:21Shane, Steph, come on out.

00:37:25No music, no fanfare.

00:37:27No first, no limo.

00:37:29They used to have a limo so long that it was long distance to call the chauffeur.

00:37:35Oh, no.

00:37:35Look at this.

00:37:37You don't think they're going to have to join the club, do you?

00:37:39Oh, I don't know.

00:37:41Boy.

00:37:42Let's hear it for Shane and Stephanie McMahon.

00:37:47Overwhelming boos for the ungrateful children of Vincent Linda McMahon, who invested their entire life,

00:37:54all their money, all their savings, all their inheritance, to buy WCW and ECW.

00:38:00They used to have bookcases just for their bank books.

00:38:03Now they're, like, busted.

00:38:05What's Vince going to do here to you?

00:38:06He's got something in mind.

00:38:07I can't tell you how proud I am as a father to hear a jam-packed arena shout the chant of slut to my daughter.

00:38:17Oh, my gosh.

00:38:18Oh, my gosh.

00:38:20And that's his baby girl.

00:38:24That makes me so proud.

00:38:30What has happened to us?

00:38:33What has happened to our family?

00:38:39Well, before I give the two of you a piece of my mind,

00:38:45I'll give you an opportunity to speak yours first.

00:38:48And Shane, we'll start with you.

00:38:54It's a little uncomfortable, JR.

00:38:57It's like we shouldn't be seeing this, I don't think.

00:39:03Congratulations.

00:39:06You won.

00:39:12And I lost.

00:39:14Wow.

00:39:15Everything.

00:39:19And I lost to the better man.

00:39:30Look, you can almost hear Vince thinking,

00:39:34it's really tasting good to him.

00:39:36Shane's leaving.

00:39:39What is that?

00:39:39All right.

00:39:45Stephanie.

00:39:48Ain't taking it like a man.

00:39:50He lost.

00:39:50He's leaving.

00:39:51Dad.

00:39:54Well, I'm sure Steph will, too.

00:39:56Let me start off by saying, Daddy.

00:40:00Daddy.

00:40:02Uh-oh.

00:40:03That I've made some really, really bad mistakes.

00:40:09I have, but I'm young.

00:40:11I'm naive.

00:40:15But, Dad, the biggest mistake I made was listening to my brother Shane.

00:40:21Oh, no.

00:40:22This whole alliance thing was Shane's idea.

00:40:27Shane bought the WCW.

00:40:29Shane had me by ECW.

00:40:31Shane wanted to run you and the WWF out of business.

00:40:34Dad, it was all Shane.

00:40:36That's passing the buck, the big bucks.

00:40:42And, Dad, Shane is the one who had me slap Mom.

00:40:49Uh-oh.

00:40:50You saw it.

00:40:52Shane grabbed Mom and said, slap her.

00:40:54Hit her.

00:40:56I didn't know what else to do.

00:40:57I didn't.

00:40:58It was another big, horrible mistake.

00:41:02Sad day for all of us.

00:41:04See that.

00:41:05And, Dad, when I told you that I wanted you to die.

00:41:11Ooh.

00:41:12That was all Shane's idea, too.

00:41:15Shane told me to tell you that I wanted you to die.

00:41:17I don't want you to die, Daddy.

00:41:19I love you.

00:41:21I would never want to hurt you, ever, never.

00:41:31As a matter of fact, the only thing that Shane said

00:41:34that was not a mistake was what he just said in this very ring.

00:41:39You are the better man, Dad.

00:41:41Daddy, you are a genius.

00:41:49I mean, Daddy, you had this.

00:41:51The Alliance snowed all along.

00:41:53You knew what you were doing the whole time.

00:41:55I guess the only thing I really have left to say

00:42:06is that I'm sorry.

00:42:10I'm sorry, Daddy.

00:42:12How's that for sincerity?

00:42:16Brown ain't buying it.

00:42:18Is Vince.

00:42:18I'm really so sorry, Daddy.

00:42:21How about a tear?

00:42:22I think she really means it.

00:42:36You think?

00:42:37Security.

00:42:41What?

00:42:42Wait a minute.

00:42:43Come on in.

00:42:45Security.

00:42:45Get this woman.

00:42:46She's got a death grip on Vince's leg.

00:42:52Get this woman out of my ring.

00:42:54What?

00:42:54This woman?

00:42:55What?

00:42:56Daddy, Daddy, it's so funny.

00:42:57That's your daughter.

00:42:58No, no, no.

00:43:03That woman.

00:43:05That's a baby girl.

00:43:08And she is being escorted.

00:43:09Wait, wait, wait.

00:43:10He's got new senses.

00:43:12Say goodbye to Daddy's little girl.

00:43:15What?

00:43:16No chance.

00:43:19That is colder than the other side of the pillow.

00:43:21Let me tell you.

00:43:23But you reap what you sow.

00:43:26Get what you deserve sometime in this world.

00:43:30I can't believe what I just witnessed.

00:43:33Ladies and gentlemen, coming up next.

00:43:35The World Championship held by The Rock on the line.

00:43:39The Rock, Kurt Angle, live for the Gold Knicks.

00:43:46I mean it literally.

00:43:47Someone from the Alliance who wants a job with the World Wrestling Federation will be in the ring with me tonight.

00:43:55Tonight, that's right.

00:43:56And will literally kiss my ass.

00:43:59If they want a job, that's what's going to happen.

00:44:05Hank.

00:44:08Hang on a second.

00:44:09I'll call you back.

00:44:10I heard you wanted to see me, Vince.

00:44:15Yeah.

00:44:15Yeah, what about...

00:44:16Can you give me one logical explanation why you took the risk of perhaps putting the World Wrestling Federation out of existence at Survivor Series by attacking The Rock?

00:44:30Well, to be honest with you, Vince, I guess my ego got the best of me.

00:44:39Yeah, so if you want to hear this, then I apologize.

00:44:43If that's what you want to hear, I'm sorry.

00:44:46Okay?

00:44:47Yeah, great.

00:44:48Yeah.

00:44:51But the apology must be sincere, and I can feel the vibes here.

00:44:57I know you really sincerely apologize, and just for the record, I don't like guys with big egos.

00:45:07Now, if you have a massive ego, I'm all right with that.

00:45:11Which is why tonight, we're going to take your massive ego, we're going to put it in the ring.

00:45:19Tonight, Jericho goes one-on-one with Kane.

00:45:27Wow.

00:45:27Uh-oh.

00:45:30That'll shrink your ego.

00:45:32Well, again, we keep an eye, vigilant eye on the out in the parking lot area.

00:45:37Awetting the arrival of Stone Cold Steve Austin, who Mr. McMahon says,

00:45:40will execute his plan when Austin arrives.

00:45:43Look, it's Mr. T right here on my side.

00:45:47I don't even know what I've got, I don't even know what I've got.

00:45:49I found that Mr. T is playing one of the best superstars.

00:45:52Yeah, he's fucking dead.

00:45:54Yeah, he's fucking dead.

00:45:57Jeremiah Rocks.

00:45:58Look, the rock is cool.

00:46:01What an ovation.

00:46:15The moment he's finished for one song, and he has been a world championship.

00:46:20In the ring from Miami, Florida, weighing in at 250 pounds, he is the world champion, the rock.

00:46:28Well, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Raw Zone here in the new T and E on the rock.

00:46:34Leading the WWF to victory at the Survivor Series with an unlikely assist king from Kurt Angle.

00:46:42But now that there's no WCW, Mr. McMahon says, the rock is the world's champion for now.

00:46:48Now, you know what, there?

00:46:49I never thought that I would use the term inbrake in the same sentence with the rock.

00:46:55I think he's ungrateful to Kurt Angle.

00:46:57He should have thanked Kurt Angle.

00:46:59Well, ladies and gentlemen, Vengeance is presented live on Sunday Pacific of the Night

00:47:04from the San Diego Sports Arena by Luggs, Boots and Shoes, tough enough to handle anything.

00:47:13Oh-ho.

00:47:14And everything the challenger from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, weighing in at 237 pounds,

00:47:20that's going to be in trouble, Kurt Angle, Kurt Angle.

00:47:23Well, I was shocked to find out that Mr. McMahon made Kurt Angle the foe.

00:47:32That infiltrated the alliance a month or so ago, so I guess Kurt Angle going deep undercover.

00:47:39Hey, that's dangerous work, too, JR.

00:47:41I've done some of my most dangerous work in my career undercover.

00:47:45He's gotten you in trouble a couple of times.

00:47:46Hey, hey, hey.

00:47:48Well, this match is for the, no longer the WCW title, the world title.

00:47:54And Kurt Angle and The Rock are about to get it on.

00:47:58The Rock has very little time for Kurt Angle.

00:48:01Boom!

00:48:02Look out!

00:48:04And a knockdown by Kurt Angle, who really believes that he single-handedly has kept

00:48:10the WWE in business, and he is the reason that we are all here.

00:48:14Wait a minute, JR.

00:48:15I mean, are you saying that like you don't believe that?

00:48:18Well, I mean, King of Rock had nothing to do with the Rock bottom and was going forward.

00:48:22Yeah, but I mean, The Rock was history.

00:48:23He was laid out.

00:48:25I mean, Kurt came in and saved the place.

00:48:27That's the reason I'm back.

00:48:28That's the reason you're not having to sit out here with that idiot Flo Heyman anymore.

00:48:32I am thankful for that, there's no doubt about that.

00:48:34Somebody tonight's gonna be joining Mr. McWilliams, Kiss My Ass Club.

00:48:38I didn't have that right, someone right by The Rock.

00:48:40The Rock now, mounting Kurt Angle.

00:48:43Angle, the Olympic gold medal winner in 1996.

00:48:47He's got knocked down with a right hand, an un-Olympic-like right hand by Kurt Angle.

00:48:53On Kurt Angle, by The Rock.

00:48:59Just got elevated on the top.

00:49:00We know that Kane and Y2J are gonna be meeting one-on-one.

00:49:04And I think that's some more of Mr. McMahon, some sort of converse fun he's gonna have with Y2J.

00:49:10Let's face it, Jericho admitted he was an egomaniac.

00:49:14He almost cost the WWF last night of Survivor Series.

00:49:17Well, you're right about that.

00:49:18Thank goodness for Kurt Angle.

00:49:19And I'll tell you what, I thought that was gonna implode on us and Jericho's actions are gonna cost us all our jobs.

00:49:25It wasn't a Jericho won the Alliance to run, it's just the fact that Jericho and

00:49:28The Rock has such a personal .

00:49:33See, I just don't like seeing this.

00:49:35There's a cover.

00:49:36I mean, The Rock and Kurt Angle, you know, they should both, they should be-

00:49:41My gosh.

00:49:43Angle got an ankle off The Rock, rolling through it, able to free himself.

00:49:46You don't wanna get caught on an ankle off.

00:49:48Look out, a suplex.

00:49:50Man, belly to belly, overhead suplex mind.

00:49:52These guys should be like partners.

00:49:55I mean, they're like the two best superstars in the WWF.

00:50:00And here they are going tooth and nail at each other.

00:50:02Well, Rock should understand about this undercover one.

00:50:06Well, maybe you gotta have a sentiment to your learning tree somewhere down the road.

00:50:10Undercover one.

00:50:13He was the mole.

00:50:14And look at Kurt Angle choking The Rock in this project for the world title.

00:50:20Tomorrow night we're gonna be in Fayetteville, North Carolina at the Crown Coliseum.

00:50:23Good night, as we continue three days in Tar Heelia.

00:50:27We're looking forward to being in Tulsa on Sunday.

00:50:30And next Monday night we're gonna be in Oklahoma City for Raw.

00:50:33Great center for those events, including Philadelphia Saturday.

00:50:37Look at these people, Angle sucks.

00:50:39My gosh, he saved the WWF.

00:50:40My gosh.

00:50:42Turning the suplex by Angle, taking down The Rock.

00:50:46And The Rock again getting driven down.

00:50:48Handling a government mule here by the suplex specialist Kurt Angle.

00:50:53Hooking the leg.

00:50:54A title of the snake here in The Rock, able to shoot a shoulder up.

00:50:58Certainly a lot of great ones have held the former WCW Championship,

00:51:03but now being recognized as simply the world title.

00:51:07Stone Cold is the WWF Champion.

00:51:09Yeah.

00:51:10As we still await Austin's arrival tonight.

00:51:12Let me remind you of something.

00:51:13Okay.

00:51:14Don't even say WCW more.

00:51:16We'll make Mr. McMahon hide him, probably at both of us.

00:51:19I don't know what that way.

00:51:19Join that club, you don't want to do that, do you?

00:51:22Not again.

00:51:23What?

00:51:24In the scoop slam by Kurt Angle, slamming him.

00:51:26Again?

00:51:27Well, that's a fibrous piece.

00:51:28Angle in firm control here, man, Angle.

00:51:31This could have all been avoided.

00:51:33All Rock would have had to say, thanks to that.

00:51:36No, what kind of thanks is that?

00:51:38Kurt Angle's not gonna say thank you for that.

00:51:40I hope he's wearing a cup.

00:51:42Cups.

00:51:42Kurt Angle's ego may be getting to have a part of this problem too, King.

00:51:47A super flex right on Angle, and the Rock's world title on the line here.

00:51:54One, two, three.

00:51:57And Mr. McMahon has had his children banished from the arena.

00:52:01He called his daughter, that woman.

00:52:05Got her drug out by security.

00:52:09Paul Heyman has been fired tonight, very unceremoniously.

00:52:12Yeah, do you miss Paul Heyman yet?

00:52:14Do I miss a boil on my backside?

00:52:16No.

00:52:17One hit by Rock fighting back.

00:52:20Kurt Angle wants to win this title night.

00:52:23Listen to those shots.

00:52:24That hurt more than a boil on your backside.

00:52:27Knocked down by Angle.

00:52:28Angle watered by Rock.

00:52:29Look at the Rock.

00:52:30Last hit put by the Rock, right back in Angle's space here.

00:52:33Look out, Kurt.

00:52:34Look out.

00:52:35The Rock's offense has been primarily those big time right hands as Angle,

00:52:40who outwrestled just about everybody he's in the ring with.

00:52:43Look out.

00:52:44A nice throw by the Rock, good, a great wrestling move there.

00:52:47Going to the DDT.

00:52:50My gosh, that's gonna do it.

00:52:51The DDT, the hook to the leg, and Angle kicks out.

00:52:54I'm telling you, they don't come any better than Kurt Angle.

00:52:58Again, if you're just trying to still come, Kane to meet Y2J one-on-one here.

00:53:04I'm still surprised all the guys weren't just lined up to shake hands with Kurt,

00:53:08congratulate him, and thank him, and worship him, and that sort of stuff.

00:53:13Let's just have a damn parade.

00:53:14What would you?

00:53:15That's not a bad idea.

00:53:16A Span Buster.

00:53:18A Span Buster by the Rock, and the end could be near for

00:53:22the challenger for the world title.

00:53:24Man, what a chaotic night, and just think what's gonna happen if the win Austin shows up.

00:53:29Yeah, where is Austin?

00:53:30No.

00:53:31Look at this.

00:53:31Rock, one for the Rock, one who's countered.

00:53:33Angle, Angle, Angle, Angle, the Angle Slam.

00:53:37And that's gonna be it.

00:53:38Get ready to start the parade.

00:53:39The Angle Slam.

00:53:41I can see it now, red, white, blue, banners everywhere.

00:53:44Woo!

00:53:45Hurt Angle just drilled the world's champion.

00:53:49And this will be by another Rock, and they're caught in the ankle lock.

00:53:53Look at that counter, the Rock counter, both legs are hooked.

00:53:58Yes!

00:53:59Hurt Angle just got out of the wrestle.

00:54:03Look out.

00:54:04Look out.

00:54:06And Angle now stomping away at the Rock who retains his world title.

00:54:11But Angle wanna sleep in the wheel for three seconds, and it cost him the match.

00:54:17And now Angle is taking out his vengeance on the world champion.

00:54:21You got that right.

00:54:22Look out, Kurt.

00:54:23Not again.

00:54:24The Rock.

00:54:25Man.

00:54:27The Rock just got the, wait a minute.

00:54:30It's Chris Jericho.

00:54:30What the heck?

00:54:31And Jericho.

00:54:33The The Ego Maniac.

00:54:34Jericho from behind hammering The Rock.

00:54:37Jericho, come on.

00:54:39Jericho, come on.

00:54:40Jericho, come on.

00:54:42Jericho!

00:54:42Mr. McMahon's not gonna like this a bit, but The Rock is locking it even less.

00:54:49Look at The Rock trying to cover up, but Jericho, those three shots, and

00:54:53the angle pushing Jericho out of the way, and let The Angle back to The Rock.

00:54:57The Angle wants to get hit something.

00:54:59The Rock champion can be stiff at any movement, and look at Jericho.

00:55:03And compared to The Rock, and another cheap shot.

00:55:06With another referee finally angles, relinquishing the ankle lock.

00:55:12But the damage has been done, and look at Jericho owning Rock.

00:55:16His ego is huge, look, look at this.

00:55:20Wait a second here, enough is enough, Jericho.

00:55:23An opportunity.

00:55:25Come on, get your ego in check.

00:55:28Jericho punishing The Rock after the ankle lock, after that battle with Kurt Angle.

00:55:34You better get some more help down here.

00:55:37And there's gotta be some hell to pay in the front office.

00:55:40Of course, I gotta believe for Jericho, but more physically, when that man gets back, get out.

00:55:45And The Rock is hurt.

00:55:47Get that right.

00:55:48The ankle lock and then waltzing Jericho.

00:55:50Come on, Jericho.

00:55:52And The Rock trying to get up, but his legs are not a willing participant right now.

00:55:57You gotta give it to The Rock.

00:55:59He's still the world champion.

00:56:00Oh, look, look, Jericho's not finished.

00:56:02But it's just, come on.

00:56:04Come on, ref.

00:56:04Get that lunatic out of here.

00:56:06Get on of here.

00:56:08Get on of here.

00:56:10And he goes and-

00:56:12Yeah, Grimm is here.

00:56:13Spirited competitor is one thing, but being an England maniac is another.

00:56:19And it's a shame that this apparently is happening to Y2J.

00:56:23The Rock ain't answering his face, King.

00:56:29The Rock trying to stay, and I don't know that he can.

00:56:32He can't.

00:56:33This is bad, he needs some help from The Rock.

00:56:34Jericho meet King later tonight, but right now, Jericho has done his damage.

00:56:41Angle's ankle lock, here's a great counter.

00:56:46I thought Kurt Angle had the match, and then look at this.

00:56:50The Rock's rolling right into the hitting combination.

00:56:52One, two, three, and that was it.

00:56:54Unbelievable.

00:56:55Angle could not believe he got out-wrestled on that exchange.

00:56:59It doesn't happen too often.

00:57:01Look, and then The Rock bottom, that was after the match, after Angle attacked The Rock.

00:57:06And then here comes Jericho, from behind, stiff shot to the back of the head, and

00:57:11then all hell broke loose.

00:57:12Man, The Rock is hurting.

00:57:16The Rock is still knocked to his feet.

00:57:17Wow.

00:57:19Welcome back, both Jericho King here at ringside.

00:57:23And who's gonna join Mr. McMahon's kiss my ass club?

00:57:28Well, we may find out right now.

00:57:31All right.

00:57:32Get your cameras ready.

00:57:36This is it.

00:57:37This is gonna be a Kodak moment.

00:57:39I can't wait.

00:57:41I can't wait.

00:57:42Again, I'm still awaiting the arrival of Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:57:47Yeah, where's he?

00:57:48I don't know.

00:57:49However, to bide my time, perhaps now would be a time to find out just whom I have selected

00:57:55to join the Vince McMahon kiss my ass club.

00:58:02Oh, what a club.

00:58:04So, with that in mind, please welcome...

00:58:07Uh-oh.

00:58:08William Regal.

00:58:09William Regal.

00:58:10William Regal.

00:58:11William Regal.

00:58:12William Regal.

00:58:13Wow, William Regal.

00:58:14Fucker up and come on down.

00:58:15The former Alliance Commissioner.

00:58:17No tongue, please.

00:58:18Oh, God.

00:58:19Well, this should be, uh...

00:58:20I can't imagine Regal being the kind of man that would...

00:58:24I mean, I don't know where he is.

00:58:25Well, he's supposed to make the entire United Kingdom proud.

00:58:26I think he's got some challenges.

00:58:27Come on, Mr. Regal.

00:58:28Chop, chop.

00:58:29Come on.

00:58:30Chop, chop.

00:58:31We don't have all night.

00:58:32Yeah.

00:58:33Mr. Regal, come on.

00:58:34Come on.

00:58:35Come on.

00:58:36We don't have all night.

00:58:37Yeah.

00:58:38Mr. Regal, come on.

00:58:39Come on.

00:58:40Come on.

00:58:41Come on.

00:58:42Come on.

00:58:43Come on.

00:58:44Come on.

00:58:45Come on.

00:58:46Come on.

00:58:47Come on.

00:58:48Let's get this over with.

00:58:49In front of Vince and his wife, Linda, at Survivor Series, somewhat unceremoniously.

00:58:56I assume, Mr. Regal, that you've been practicing puckering.

00:59:00Oh, yeah.

00:59:01In the locker room area.

00:59:05And you are here to seek employment.

00:59:08You are here to kiss Mr. McMahon's ass.

00:59:13Right?

00:59:14Would you like me to make the ring or fix the lighting?

00:59:19I can carry your bags for you.

00:59:21Fetch your coffee or something.

00:59:23What do you want?

00:59:24Fetch?

00:59:25No, no, no.

00:59:26You don't understand.

00:59:27I meant it when I said, if you want to be employed by the World Wrestling Federation, you must kiss my ass.

00:59:37Literally.

00:59:39Here.

00:59:40Like that.

00:59:41Like that.

00:59:42You don't literally mean I've got to kiss your bottom in front of all these people.

00:59:45Yeah.

00:59:46His bottom is bum.

00:59:47His butt.

00:59:48That's exactly what I mean.

00:59:49No.

00:59:50Do you want a job or not?

00:59:54Yes.

00:59:55Yes.

00:59:56Or no.

00:59:57Because if you don't want it, there's a whole line of Alliance guys back there willing to kiss my ass.

01:00:03So what is it, William Regal?

01:00:05Yes.

01:00:06Or no.

01:00:07You don't have to.

01:00:11What a decision.

01:00:12You want a job?

01:00:13Yes.

01:00:14You want work?

01:00:15Wait, what'd he say?

01:00:16Yes.

01:00:17Good.

01:00:18Let's get to it, shall we?

01:00:19Oh my gosh.

01:00:20I can't believe this.

01:00:21Wait a minute now.

01:00:22Wait.

01:00:23You think I'll take off his gloves?

01:00:24First of all, I'll take my jacket off.

01:00:25Oh.

01:00:26Whew.

01:00:27J.R., you and the king will have to pardon me here for a minute.

01:00:28What are you going to do, Vince?

01:00:29No.

01:00:30You may want to get on this side because it wouldn't be proper to be on that side.

01:00:32I'll take my jacket off.

01:00:33Oh.

01:00:34Whew.

01:00:35J.R., you and the king will have to pardon me here for a minute.

01:00:36What are you going to do, Vince?

01:00:37No.

01:00:38You may want to kind of get down here on your knees.

01:00:47You don't want to kiss the wrong side.

01:00:49Right over here.

01:00:50Right there.

01:00:51That's a good spot right there.

01:00:52Right there.

01:00:53Go ahead.

01:00:57It won't hurt.

01:01:02It doesn't hurt.

01:01:03If he gets on the wrong side, he gets poked in the eye.

01:01:06Come on, get down there.

01:01:09All right then.

01:01:11Pucker up.

01:01:12Man, I don't know about.

01:01:16What do you mean you don't know?

01:01:19Wait, wait, wait.

01:01:20It gets better than that.

01:01:21That's what I told.

01:01:22I knew it.

01:01:23He is not going to do this.

01:01:26Yeah, this is gonna be great.

01:01:27You do want to be employed.

01:01:29Don't you?

01:01:30It's a good job.

01:01:31Believe me.

01:01:32You want it, don't you?

01:01:33Mick.

01:01:34So, uh.

01:01:35Are you ready?

01:01:36There it is.

01:01:37Look at that.

01:01:38Go ahead.

01:01:39Go ahead and kiss my ass.

01:01:44Wait a minute.

01:01:45Come on.

01:01:46Buck it up.

01:01:47Don't you love sports entertainment?

01:01:48Oh, no, no.

01:01:49It gets better than that.

01:01:50No way.

01:01:51Oh, my God.

01:01:52Kiss it.

01:01:53Go ahead.

01:01:54It's a nice looking ass.

01:01:55Vince.

01:01:56It's broken.

01:01:57It's cracked.

01:01:58And watch.

01:01:59I could even make my ass do tricks.

01:02:00Watch this.

01:02:01Don't cut the cheese.

01:02:02Go ahead.

01:02:03Kiss my ass.

01:02:04Oh, wait a minute.

01:02:05Wait a minute.

01:02:06What's he doing now?

01:02:07I'm not about to let anybody kiss my ass who has chapped lips.

01:02:10No, you're kidding.

01:02:11Oh, no.

01:02:12You're kidding.

01:02:13Oh, my God.

01:02:14Oh, my God.

01:02:15Oh, my God.

01:02:16Kiss it.

01:02:17Go ahead.

01:02:18It's a nice looking ass.

01:02:19Vince.

01:02:20It's broken.

01:02:21It's cracked.

01:02:22And watch.

01:02:23I could even make my ass do tricks.

01:02:24Watch this.

01:02:25Don't cut the cheese.

01:02:26Go ahead.

01:02:27Kiss my ass.

01:02:28Wait a minute.

01:02:29Put that on.

01:02:30And now he's got to use Vince's own chapstick.

01:02:32Put it on.

01:02:33Can I borrow your toothbrush?

01:02:36Oh, I'm so glad to be back to see this.

01:02:39I thought Regal.

01:02:41I just don't think Regal's going to go through with this.

01:02:43What do you mean?

01:02:44Put it on.

01:02:45Let's get this over with.

01:02:46He's got some big lips, too.

01:02:47He can French kiss a moose.

01:02:48Come on.

01:02:49Get down there and kiss it.

01:02:50This is going to be big.

01:02:55All right.

01:02:56Now, damn it.

01:02:57Kiss my ass.

01:03:00Join the club.

01:03:02Charter member.

01:03:03Is he going to do it?

01:03:05What if he passes gas?

01:03:11He did it.

01:03:12He did it.

01:03:13He did it.

01:03:14He did it.

01:03:15I don't believe it.

01:03:16This is the greatest moment in the history of the WWE.

01:03:19It dignified William Regal after he started to do ass kissing to keep his job.

01:03:24My goodness.

01:03:29How is Regal gonna look himself in the mirror?

01:03:33How is he gonna look his tears in the face?

01:03:37How is he ever gonna return to the United Kingdom?

01:03:41Forget about that.

01:03:43At least he's got a job.

01:03:46Let's see it again.

01:03:47The best replay of the night.

01:03:48That was so good.

01:03:52And Regal trying to keep the proverbial stiff upper lip, if you know what I mean.

01:04:02He got that right.

01:04:03He'll use a quarter Listerine tonight, won't he?

01:04:06What else is?

01:04:07Uh-oh.

01:04:08We know what this is about.

01:04:09Kane and Y2J.

01:04:11Our Hellfire Brimstone's coming up next.

01:04:15Fun's over.

01:04:17Boy, there's nothing like WWF Live.

01:04:20This was the greatest thing I've ever seen.

01:04:22Watch this.

01:04:24William Regal joins the Vince McMahon Kiss My Ass Club right on.

01:04:31But Regal got a job out of it.

01:04:33What a price to pay.

01:04:34He got a contract.

01:04:35There he is.

01:04:36And a bad taste in his mouth.

01:04:38You think it's funny?

01:04:40You think it's funny as well?

01:04:42Uh-oh.

01:04:43What?

01:04:44You got something to say, Sunshine?

01:04:45Have you got something?

01:04:46Do you want a bloody mock me or something?

01:04:47You think it's funny?

01:04:48You'd have done a bloody same.

01:04:49What a kiss ass.

01:04:50No!

01:04:51That's right!

01:04:52Oh, hey!

01:04:53Hey!

01:04:54Regal though.

01:04:55Regal a cheap shot on Taz.

01:04:56Taz, my friend, tell her like it is.

01:04:59I bet Regal's breath was reek.

01:05:01Oh, hey!

01:05:02Hey!

01:05:03Hey!

01:05:04Hey!

01:05:05Regal though.

01:05:06Regal a cheap shot on Taz.

01:05:08Taz, my friend, tell her like it is.

01:05:11I bet Regal's breath was reeking.

01:05:16Butt breath.

01:05:17Butt breath.

01:05:18Nothing worse.

01:05:19How would you know?

01:05:22You know I gotcha.

01:05:24Yeah.

01:05:25One, three, two, one.

01:05:27Well, this match made earlier by Mr. McMahon.

01:05:30He's got him.

01:05:31He's got him.

01:05:32The following contest is given for one fall.

01:05:33Making his way to the ring from Westhead, Manitoba, Canada.

01:05:35Weighing in with 227 pounds, Chris Jericho.

01:05:36Well, Jericho and Kane are about to go one-on-one.

01:05:37The Rock is receiving medical attention.

01:05:38And here's why.

01:05:39Earlier tonight, The Rock successfully defending his world title against Kurt Angle.

01:05:43This happened after the match was over.

01:05:44The Rock bottom.

01:05:45And then unsuspectingly, Kane, why 2-Jay from behind, Kane?

01:05:48The Egomaniac, the self-admitted Egomaniac, he locked The Rock into the walls of Jericho.

01:05:53And this was after Angle had the ankle locked on The Rock.

01:05:57Jericho got the walls on.

01:05:59the wall not once but twice.

01:06:01And The Rock receiving medical attention as we speak on his face.

01:06:22Jericho almost caught a wall.

01:06:26Jericho almost caught the ball, whoa, whoa, whoa, my gosh, let me hear you say it, Taylor.

01:06:32It's winning the ring, winning the 326 pounds, King.

01:06:36He'll walk through Hellfire and Brimstone to take care of Y2J and Jericho.

01:06:42After being eliminated in the winner-take-all elimination match at the Survivor Series,

01:06:47it came down to Jericho and Rock versus Austin.

01:06:51Jericho gets eliminated and then almost puts Rock completely out of commission.

01:06:56As has been speculated, and Jericho trying to gain the early finish has been

01:07:02speculated Jericho, Kurt Angle has shocked us all by coming back to the ring,

01:07:07nailing Austin with the WWE title belt.

01:07:11Whoa!

01:07:12Did you see that?

01:07:13Yeah, it was led to the rock bottom.

01:07:15And the Kane is on, I wanna say on fire here, he's smoking.

01:07:19That's not a very nice thing to say for a guy.

01:07:23He's in there already.

01:07:24Yes, he has.

01:07:25Again, this match made it done, but not by Mr. McMahon.

01:07:29And I'll tell you what, Jericho is kinda like going to the books yet, eh?

01:07:33You got that right.

01:07:34Kane is intended to light Jericho up here and shrink that ego down to size.

01:07:38And Kane, 6'10".

01:07:40Look at that.

01:07:41325.

01:07:42Man, Jericho, very resourceful move there by Y2J and Jericho hammering Kane with all he's got.

01:07:50And you gotta come with everything you got to get Kane down and to keep him down.

01:07:55You gotta wonder what the repercussions would be.

01:08:00What if someone like Kane, if he's not successful in doing Mr. McMahon's bidding here?

01:08:05Watch this.

01:08:06Come on.

01:08:07Jericho hanging Kane up in that bottom rope.

01:08:11And I think we could be in North Carolina for a couple of days, a final day tomorrow in Faye.

01:08:16It's a big event there at the Crown Coliseum.

01:08:19Big week in Florida this weekend.

01:08:21Friday night in Daytona, Saturday in Lakeland.

01:08:24And a Sunday in Fort Myers for the WWF.

01:08:27Not to mention a big extravaganza Saturday night in Philly.

01:08:30Sunday night in Tulsa, culminating with the Raw in Oklahoma City one week from the night.

01:08:35Tickets for all those events are still available for you fans.

01:08:39Yeah, I'll tell you, what a night this has been.

01:08:42I've heard of a lot of clubs in my life.

01:08:44I've heard of a Canadian club.

01:08:46I joined the Mile High Club once.

01:08:48I mean, I even joined the country club.

01:08:50But tonight, look at my ass pub.

01:08:53Kane just called, he just called Jericho.

01:08:56Jericho came with a line song and called a low blow.

01:09:00That was a low blow by Jericho, undetected by the referee in Jericho's version of a Bulldog,

01:09:06taking Kane face first down to the canvas.

01:09:09What does Jericho do?

01:09:11He's got a big ego to maintain in this match.

01:09:14Jericho getting a steel folding chair.

01:09:18This is not a hardcore rules match.

01:09:21This is not a no disqualification match.

01:09:23And the referee, and Kane just unarmed Jericho.

01:09:28Hard right hand by Kane.

01:09:30Jericho may have got that chair, just thought he had to have it to survive.

01:09:34But I don't know if I'd wanna have Kane have the opportunity to have a referee.

01:09:39Let the referee get that chair out of the ring.

01:09:41Watch it.

01:09:43Watch it.

01:09:44William Regal didn't take that little conversation with his ass very well, did he?

01:09:46No.

01:09:47Holy crap.

01:09:48I'll say, no tilt the world action by Kane,

01:09:51muscling a Y2J up and down with a great deal of authority.

01:09:55Come on, Jericho.

01:09:56You think Regal's brushing his teeth somewhere right now?

01:09:58I don't know.

01:09:59I think he's getting disinfected.

01:10:00He needs to be dipped.

01:10:01Kane up in the top row.

01:10:04Hey, where's the chair still there?

01:10:06Jericho!

01:10:07Man!

01:10:08Kane right in the face.

01:10:09You hear that?

01:10:10Right in the head of that chair, coming off the top.

01:10:13Referee called for the bell.

01:10:15Boom!

01:10:16And now Jericho, huge ego and all,

01:10:19with a couple of viral chair shots on the big red machine.

01:10:23Wait a minute.

01:10:24You're going for the walls of Jericho and Kane?

01:10:26And the Roskin medical treatment as we speak for this very maneuver.

01:10:30Jericho!

01:10:31Jericho trying to get it again.

01:10:35Kane's got some huge legs.

01:10:38Jericho a little worse for wear himself.

01:10:40And Jericho trying to put Kane in.

01:10:43Kane is so big and so strong, Kane is fighting it.

01:10:46No, he's got it locked in now.

01:10:48And now Jericho's got it.

01:10:49The walls of Jericho on Kane.

01:10:51Kane tapping there, but the match is over.

01:10:57Jericho's been disqualified.

01:10:59We need some help here to get Jericho.

01:11:03What has come over Y2J?

01:11:05He almost put the WWF out of business and Kane is-

01:11:10And that is- What is Jericho thinking, Kane?

01:11:16That ego, Cloudy is thinking.

01:11:21He thinks he's the hottest thing in the World Wrestling Federation.

01:11:25He needs to have to prove it.

01:11:26I think he busts Kane open by that chair too.

01:11:29Wait a minute.

01:11:33Now what?

01:11:34There's enough, enough.

01:11:36First it was a rock, and now it's Kane.

01:11:39Come on, Jericho.

01:11:40What the hell is Jericho thinking?

01:11:42All that torque on Kane's lower back.

01:11:44Jericho doesn't even have his hold properly applied.

01:11:47But the effect is still there.

01:11:49Right, he just wanted to inflict more pain on Kane.

01:11:52Look at this.

01:11:57And better yet, listen to this chair shot.

01:11:59Man, that was heavy.

01:12:04And then the walls of Jericho obtained his brains were scrambled with two chair shots.

01:12:11Man, does Jericho have a death wish?

01:12:14Does he want his career to end?

01:12:16Look how proud he is of himself.

01:12:19What an ego.

01:12:23I mean, I had the wrong feet.

01:12:25I mean, would've killed one person to show some freaking appreciation around here.

01:12:29Wait a minute.

01:12:31Just perfect.

01:12:32I'll tell you that.

01:12:34Hey, Edge.

01:12:35Don't you have something to say to me?

01:12:37I mean, I recall you saying last week that my true color was yellow.

01:12:41I bet you someone's feeling pretty foolish right now, aren't they?

01:12:45Well, you know what?

01:12:46How about a thank you?

01:12:47A thank you for saving your job, for starters.

01:12:50Hey, Kurt.

01:12:51Little newsflash.

01:12:52You see these two titles?

01:12:54Two more than you have?

01:12:56They signify me saving my own job.

01:12:59And to quote a popular song,

01:13:01I think I know you.

01:13:03And I think you put yourself in a no-lose situation.

01:13:06I mean, I know you're in with Vince McMahon.

01:13:08But who's to say you aren't playing both sides?

01:13:11If you win for the Alliance, you're a hero.

01:13:13You save your job.

01:13:15Hey, and if you get beat, you just come back and save the day.

01:13:18Once again, you're a hero.

01:13:20Well, Kurt, I do know you.

01:13:23And I know you did what you did for one person and one person only.

01:13:28Kurt Angle.

01:13:30This is freaking great.

01:13:35We are still awaiting the rival king of Stone Cold Steve Austin.

01:13:42When is he gonna get here?

01:13:44Where is Stone Cold?

01:13:46Mr. McMahon awaits.

01:13:51Uh-oh.

01:13:53Wait a minute.

01:13:55We're informed that we have an impromptu matchup here.

01:13:59William Regal and Taz go one-on-one.

01:14:02Regal not even having time to.

01:14:04Listen.

01:14:05What are these people calling him?

01:14:07Oh, my gosh.

01:14:08Here's what happened earlier tonight.

01:14:09William Regal joining the Mr. McMahon Kiss My Ass Club.

01:14:11He actually puckered up, bit down, and planted one.

01:14:13Right on the posterior of Vince McMahon.

01:14:15I'm shocked that Regal was stooped to that level.

01:14:16No pun intended.

01:14:17But Taz, I don't think Taz thought it was too humorous.

01:14:18Hey, a job's a job, JR.

01:14:19You been on the unemployment line lately?

01:14:20I don't know.

01:14:21Well...

01:14:22Well...

01:14:23Well...

01:14:24Well...

01:14:25Well...

01:14:26Well...

01:14:27Well...

01:14:28Well...

01:14:29Well...

01:14:30Well...

01:14:31Well...

01:14:32Well...

01:14:33Well...

01:14:34Well...

01:14:35Well...

01:14:36Well...

01:14:37Well...

01:14:38Well...

01:14:39Well...

01:14:40Well...

01:14:41Well...

01:14:42Well...

01:14:43Well...

01:14:44I understand it's gonna be...

01:14:45Well...

01:14:46Well...

01:14:47Well...

01:14:48I understand it's gonna be...

01:14:49Well...

01:14:50Well...

01:14:51Well...

01:14:52Well...

01:14:53I understand there's Taz and Taz in a fight here with William Regal and Taz who...

01:15:10And Taz, who bowed up to Stone Cold, who quite frankly bowed up to many in the

01:15:15Alliance, and having an issue with Regal.

01:15:18And this is nothing more than a street fight between these two guys.

01:15:22I understand, Taz, I think that the rumor says he's been retained to be a

01:15:26broadcaster on SmackDown.

01:15:28I have not got that verified, but he's here, and he's at the Taz mission on

01:15:33William Regal.

01:15:34That's the safest place to be, behind William Regal.

01:15:37You don't wanna get near that mouth of his right now.

01:15:39Regal in his street clothes, not having time to get prepared in his ring attire.

01:15:43But Regal is a very dangerous, very physical man.

01:15:47Uh-oh, and Regal tying up Taz there.

01:15:50I think Taz tried to blind Regal with all the smoke.

01:15:53And that STF, that step over, throw over the crossface, and Regal stretched.

01:15:58And Regal is punishing Taz.

01:16:00Is Taz gonna tap?

01:16:01Yes, he does.

01:16:02And on a dark and dreary, foggy night.

01:16:07Regal's gonna let go here.

01:16:11I'm not president of Taz fan club, but-

01:16:14Regal's got a lot of frustration and hostility.

01:16:16Enough is enough.

01:16:16Come on here.

01:16:19The referee's gonna have to have some help.

01:16:21Regal kept his jaw by kissing him, Christian McMahon's behind.

01:16:25And now he is punishing Taz to the outer limits.

01:16:29Just because Taz called him a kiss-ass.

01:16:33Kiss him goodbye.

01:16:35Regal may never live this night down.

01:16:38Never.

01:16:39Kurt.

01:16:43Kurt.

01:16:46Yeah?

01:16:47What's the matter?

01:16:48Well, I got beat by The Rock.

01:16:51I had a beat, not only that, but not one person in the WWF has shown me any appreciation for

01:16:57what I did, not one thank you, except for you, I mean, I'm hurt.

01:17:01Well, then you know what, allow me to show you my appreciation.

01:17:10How would you like to be the world wrestling federation champion?

01:17:19Are you kidding?

01:17:21No.

01:17:23I'd be honored.

01:17:25Well, if that's the case, why don't you take a walk with me out to the ring?

01:17:31All right, let's go.

01:17:33What is this?

01:17:34What the hell is that about?

01:17:35We are back live, ladies and gentlemen, here in Charlotte, North Carolina on the

01:17:40Raw Zone, here on the new TNN, and apparently there they are.

01:17:45Mr. McMahon is carrying the WWF title over his shoulder, King.

01:17:50I can't quite figure out exactly what's going on here.

01:17:53I mean, how can Mr. McMahon make Kurt Angle the WWF champion when Roman Stone Cold

01:17:59is not here?

01:18:00Stone Cold is the WWF champion.

01:18:02Angle left the Survivor Series and took the WWF title belt with him, and the, and all

01:18:09the confusion at the end with the WWF won, but I don't, I don't really understand this.

01:18:15Where do you think Stone Cold is?

01:18:17Having a, Steve, Steve Weiser somewhere?

01:18:19Trying to drown his sorrows?

01:18:20That could be.

01:18:21We don't converse much anymore, as you know, so I couldn't really tell you, but...

01:18:25You and he used to be thick, you know?

01:18:27I just don't understand the meaning of this.

01:18:32I would just like to say on behalf of every World Wrestling Federation fan in this

01:18:39arena, I would like to say, I would like to say to Kurt Angle, thank you.

01:18:47I'm gonna have to second that.

01:18:49Now wait a minute.

01:18:50Isn't doing.

01:18:51Come on.

01:18:52No, no, let me repeat that.

01:18:56On behalf of every person in this arena.

01:19:01Folks.

01:19:02Thank you, Kurt Angle.

01:19:03Thank you, Kurt Angle.

01:19:04He's speaking for everyone.

01:19:06No respect.

01:19:07What don't these people get about this?

01:19:11He saved the WWF single.

01:19:12Kurt Angle is an Olympic hero.

01:19:17He's an American hero.

01:19:20He's a WWF hero.

01:19:22And by God, like it or not, he's your hero.

01:19:26He's our hero.

01:19:27My hero, certainly.

01:19:28And since Stone Cold Steve Austin has chosen to be typical Stone Cold, and that is don't

01:19:43show up the night after you're defeated.

01:19:49That's typical of Stone Cold.

01:19:51Exactly.

01:19:52What?

01:19:53What?

01:19:54What?

01:19:55What?

01:19:56What?

01:19:57As far as I'm concerned, wherever Stone Cold is, he can stay there.

01:20:04Wow.

01:20:05Because we need a World Wrestling Federation champion.

01:20:09We need a champion with dignity.

01:20:12That's Kurt.

01:20:14We need a champion with class.

01:20:17Mr. Angle.

01:20:18We need a champion with credibility.

01:20:24Kurt Angle.

01:20:25Kurt Angle.

01:20:28We need Kurt Angle as the World Wrestling Federation champion.

01:20:33Here, here.

01:20:34Wait a second.

01:20:35What?

01:20:36What?

01:20:37I mean...

01:20:38You don't agree?

01:20:39I don't understand.

01:20:40I don't understand.

01:20:41I was hoping Austin would be here so that I would have the distinct honor of stripping him

01:20:47of the World Wrestling Federation championship.

01:20:49Whoa.

01:20:50Oh.

01:20:51Oh.

01:20:52In the absence of that, Kurt, allow me, as the sole owner of the World Wrestling Federation, allow

01:21:04you to meet him.

01:21:05Wait a second.

01:21:06What is that?

01:21:07It can't be what I think it could be.

01:21:11It can't be what I think it could be.

01:21:16But it is.

01:21:17What?

01:21:18There's the Nature Boy.

01:21:20What's he doing here?

01:21:22Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

01:21:24He lives here in Charlotte.

01:21:26And there's a standing ovation here at the Coliseum in the Queen City.

01:21:33Wait a minute.

01:21:34He's got no business here.

01:21:36He's a party crasher.

01:21:37This is Kurt Angle's moment of glory.

01:21:40Don't steal Kurt Thunder.

01:21:43This big man, like the rest of us, must be wondering what the hell Ric Flair is doing

01:21:56in the WWF.

01:21:57It's obvious, JR.

01:21:58This is his hometown.

01:21:59He's getting a cheap talk from all his local fans.

01:22:02I mean, sure, he's great and everything.

01:22:05He's Ric Flair, but...

01:22:06Ric Flair, one of the greatest of the game in the game's history.

01:22:10But he's not in the WWF.

01:22:12I know that.

01:22:13You can't just grab...

01:22:14Where's security?

01:22:15I mean, you can't just let anyone walk into the ring here.

01:22:20What?

01:22:25Is this a mirage?

01:22:27Look at that sight.

01:22:29What's wrong with that picture?

01:22:31Am I seeing Ric Flair on Raw?

01:22:33Oh, I almost forgot.

01:22:43And you know, that's pretty typical because you're almost forgotten, but...

01:22:48Uh-oh.

01:22:49This is your hometown, isn't it, Ric Flair?

01:22:51That's why he's here.

01:22:52She popped.

01:22:53Listen.

01:22:54Well, Mr. Flair, why don't you listen to the crowd and tell me this is my hometown or not?

01:23:04We know it.

01:23:06You're over.

01:23:07You're over.

01:23:08From Charlotte.

01:23:09That's all right.

01:23:11This is your hometown, Charlotte, North Carolina.

01:23:14That's great.

01:23:15But this is my ring and you're standing in it, and I want an explanation.

01:23:19There you go.

01:23:20The explanation that I'm going to give you all revolves around the fact that I bet on a

01:23:32winner last night.

01:23:33Woo!

01:23:34Bet on a winner?

01:23:35What's he talking about?

01:23:36What the hell are you talking about?

01:23:38I sat home, woo, on the big side of town, in that big house, and I bet on a winner last

01:23:48night.

01:23:49That's that.

01:23:50But Kurt Angle, let me just say this to you.

01:23:53You're a man that's got an Olympic gold medal.

01:23:56You got a legacy.

01:23:58You're an ambassador.

01:23:59This is no way you want to win the world title.

01:24:02Be Kurt Angle.

01:24:04Be the gold medal winner and be a man that wins by being the best man.

01:24:09So you came down here because it's your hometown to give us your opinion.

01:24:13How nice, Mr. Flair.

01:24:15Nice to see you.

01:24:16Now, goodbye.

01:24:17You want me to just cut it too quick right away?

01:24:20I fell out of the window last night.

01:24:22And do you know that when Shane and Stephanie sold their stock to that consortium, that the

01:24:30consortium, woo!

01:24:32Wait a minute.

01:24:34What is he saying?

01:24:36Wait a second.

01:24:38The consortium, you don't mean- Woo!

01:24:42The consortium was me!

01:24:45And now, you and I are limousine riding!

01:24:48Jet flying!

01:24:49Kiss stealing!

01:24:50Wheel of dealing!

01:24:51Send him again!

01:24:52You know why?

01:24:53Because we're partners!

01:25:00The nature boy!

01:25:01And Vince McMahon!

01:25:04And then what?

01:25:05And now there's Austin!

01:25:06My God!

01:25:07Stone Cold!

01:25:16If anyone understands what I did last night, it's just-

01:25:18Hold on!

01:25:19Austin's not gonna forgive!

01:25:20Austin got screwed by an angle!

01:25:22And then the Rallis thing is spiking Kurt Angle!

01:25:23Do some minutes!

01:25:25Angle's about to be awarded the WWE title!

01:25:38Do something.

01:25:39Do something, Flair.

01:25:41Look out, Vince, he's the owner.

01:25:44Vince McMahon pulling.

01:25:47Don't pull off of Kurt Angle, and Austin is taking the hell out of Vince McMahon.

01:25:53Do something, Ric Flair, that's your business partner who's being called.

01:25:57Saving.

01:25:58Kurt Angle sliding down the ring with a splendid dog.

01:26:01And the Rattlesnake is kicking the hell out of Vince McMahon, who just found out he's not a business partner.

01:26:07And his business partner is standing by watching with a big smile on his face.

01:26:11Ric Flair enjoying watching Vince McMahon get his ass kicked.

01:26:15What kind of business is this?

01:26:17What's happening, JR?

01:26:19My God, what has happened to sports entertainment?

01:26:23What a journey we're about to embark on in the WWE.

01:26:39There are no kids, no stranger to championships.

01:26:42Vince McMahon's dream of being the man sports entertainment has been altered at the hands of nature boy Ric Flair.

01:26:50Uh-oh, look at this.

01:26:52And Stone Cold once again in possession of the WWF championship.

01:27:01But by God you've got to wonder for how long.

01:27:05Vince, what are you gonna do about this?

01:27:07What's gonna happen here, JR?

01:27:09What's gonna happen here, JR?

01:27:11What?

01:27:12Stone Cold breaking out the Steve Weiser.

01:27:16Look at the veins pop out of Vince McMahon's neck.

01:27:19Thompson thinking, let's go to that Rattlesnake's mind.

01:27:23Now wait a minute.

01:27:24You gotta be kidding me.

01:27:27Vince McMahon can't believe it.
