00:00:00Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce the new member to the NWO.
00:00:08Who is it?
00:00:11Wait a minute, it can't be.
00:00:15What?
00:00:16Isn't it really?
00:00:17It's a home wreck, here's Shawn Michaels,
00:00:22an NWO lock and watch.
00:00:25I said,
00:00:26sometimes these major announcements fall a little bit flat, but not this one.
00:00:30I can't believe this.
00:00:31I'm in shock.
00:00:32Shawn Michaels back in the WWE, but
00:00:36more importantly as a member of the NWO.
00:00:42He's back, and he's back in white slack.
00:00:47I'll tell you what,
00:00:48as Nash said, sometimes these major announcements fall a little bit flat,
00:00:53but not this one.
00:00:54I can't believe this.
00:00:57Shawn Michaels back in the WWE, and Shawn Michaels a member of the NWO.
00:01:07And Michaels looks awesome.
00:01:09He looks like he in great shape.
00:01:13I'm not your boy, Troy.
00:01:17Well, Kevin Nash said it best.
00:01:20Sometimes these things don't live up to their height.
00:01:23The major announcement, but this is shaking the WWE to its foundation.
00:01:28And these fans here in Dallas are as shocked as we are, and obviously glad to see so many of them.
00:01:35Glad to see HBK back here on Raw.
00:01:40It's not just the fans in Dallas, it's the fans all over the world have been waiting to see HBK.
00:01:47But in the NWO, that has me a little bit baffled, I can tell you that.
00:01:54I mean, Shawn Michaels has known to not pretty play well with others, if you know what I mean.
00:02:02What a coup for the NWO, you gotta admit, look, look.
00:02:09A coup?
00:02:10Just watch it.
00:02:11Two number one draft picks.
00:02:12Look at this.
00:02:13And the handshake.
00:02:14There's a handshake.
00:02:15You remember this?
00:02:21Yeah, no doubt about it.
00:02:23These two guys raised a lot of hell in the old WWF, and they're gonna raise more hell in the new WWE, it looks like to me.
00:02:33We talked about history earlier.
00:02:38A lot of history there, JR.
00:02:42And as we said, Shawn Michaels looks like to be in amazing condition.
00:02:47As Michaels and Nash have been planning this.
00:02:51Shawn Michaels is back, Shawn Michaels is back on Raw.
00:02:55And Shawn Michaels is now a proud member of the NWO.
00:03:01Unbelievable.
00:03:02Look at him.
00:03:03Here he is.
00:03:04Look at this.
00:03:06I'm just a sexy boy.
00:03:08Wow, this is amazing.
00:03:10This is earth shattering.
00:03:13Uh-oh, check it out.
00:03:15Look who's watching.
00:03:17Shawn Michaels there.
00:03:20And, well, I guess indeed he does want his.
00:03:24Man.
00:03:25Oh, man.
00:03:28So that begs the question, why am I here?
00:03:33Exactly.
00:03:34I can assure you, I'm not here to wrestle.
00:03:38I did that for you once.
00:03:42Rest assured, I will never, ever make that mistake again.
00:03:51We gave it all for the fans.
00:03:54A couple weeks ago, I said, HBK is dead.
00:04:01And he is.
00:04:02And he is.
00:04:03Because each and every one of you killed him.
00:04:08That's what he said on Confidential.
00:04:10There is, however, one man.
00:04:15One man that stood by me through every bit of it.
00:04:20One man who, when everyone else in this company, everyone else in this industry hated me with a passion.
00:04:34This man stayed my friend.
00:04:39When I got kicked to the curb and I sat at home, this man picked up the phone and he called me.
00:04:47He was there for me.
00:04:49It is my pleasure and my honor to introduce to you my best friend in the entire world.
00:04:58And the leader of the NWO, Kevin Knapp.
00:05:03Well, Shawn Michaels blaming the company, the fans.
00:05:12Wait a minute, JR.
00:05:13He said himself, he's not out here to lay blame on anything.
00:05:16He's just telling like it is.
00:05:18Well, here comes the NWO.
00:05:20Of course, Kevin Nash has assumed that leadership position in the NWO.
00:05:25And obviously, Nash and Michaels are best friends.
00:05:29A lot of folks are aware of that.
00:05:31Well, then Shawn Michaels, has he said one thing?
00:05:33You would know better than anyone, JR.
00:05:35Has he said one thing out here tonight that wasn't true?
00:05:37I mean, was he not the best there was up until WrestleMania 14 here in the WWE?
00:05:42Well, at that time, WWF?
00:05:44Until he got serious back problems, he was the best in the business.
00:05:47Okay, okay, did he get those serious back problems by going out there night in and
00:05:51night out and giving it all to the fans?
00:05:53Absolutely.
00:05:54And did they not dump on him?
00:05:56Well, that right there, I don't think that's accurate.
00:05:58That's accurate.
00:05:59As I stand here and I look at you, it's hard for me to find the words to describe how proud
00:06:08I am of you.
00:06:11When you came here, you were my bodyguard, Diesel.
00:06:16And look at you now, one of the biggest names this industry has ever known.
00:06:26moreover, you're the leader of the most dominant, most powerful group the wrestling business has ever seen.
00:06:37NWO.
00:06:39But I have to tell you, as I've sat at home and I've watched, I've seen the NWO and I've thought to myself,
00:06:50something's missing.
00:06:52Something is making me feel uneasy.
00:06:56And as I stood back and I look at this picture, I think to myself, what stands out?
00:07:05Well, one thing that's small stands out just a little bit is this seven foot, 500 pound monster.
00:07:14He stands out a little.
00:07:16Easy, big man.
00:07:17That's what I love about you.
00:07:21Think about it.
00:07:22Who in the world is going to mess with this group?
00:07:25With this seven foot, 500 pound wrecking machine watching our back.
00:07:31So then I thought, well, maybe, maybe it's a lack of focus.
00:07:41And when I think of lack of focus, I think of you.
00:07:46Uh-oh.
00:07:49To say that your short term memory leaves a little something to be desired
00:07:56would be just a smidge of an understatement.
00:08:00But you are, without a doubt, the most talented performer in our business today.
00:08:09And I got news for you, buddy.
00:08:13You can play on our team any day of the week.
00:08:17So I started to think to myself.
00:08:19Oh, God!
00:08:21What?
00:08:22Michael just super kicked Booker T's head off.
00:08:25What the hell?
00:08:28Good grief.
00:08:29I thought to myself, well, you're the problem.
00:08:37You see, you tried to steal the spotlight from the NWO, just like Austin tried to steal it from me, just like The Rock tries to steal it from Hunter.
00:08:48And I've got news for you from this day forward.
00:08:52Absolutely nobody, and I mean nobody, will ever steal the spotlight of the NWO again.
00:09:01Look at this, JR.
00:09:02Look at this, JR.
00:09:03I can't believe this.
00:09:04Booker T's been treated like a chump, a sucker.
00:09:08Now he's stripped of the colors.
00:09:10Booker T got his tooth loosened for the super kick of Shawn Michaels and now Michaels.
00:09:18Man, the big show on Xbox, showing the unity over at the Brock Booker T.
00:09:26It's a bunch of balls, man, it's crap.
00:09:28We saw it, everyone gonna get it.
00:09:30Don't worry about it.
00:09:31No, man, I don't want Booker T later on, man.
00:09:34I want his ass now.
00:09:35Take it easy, take it easy.
00:09:37The night is young, so cool down.
00:09:40The hell with that, man.
00:09:42I want Booker T, man.
00:09:43Did you see what he did to me?
00:09:45Listen, hey, I got a plan, all right?
00:09:49Whoa, wait a minute.
00:09:50I got a plan.
00:09:51Yeah?
00:09:52Yeah.
00:09:53We'll do it now, all right?
00:09:54Not now.
00:09:55Just take it easy.
00:10:00Gee, Monty.
00:10:01What?
00:10:02What the hell's going on, man?
00:10:04That's funny, man.
00:10:05Turn this off, man.
00:10:06I got beat.
00:10:08Booker T cost me my mask.
00:10:10I'm sorry.
00:10:11Damn.
00:10:12Easy.
00:10:13Easy.
00:10:14So are you gonna tell us about this?
00:10:17Booker's got a mask.
00:10:19Booker's got a mask.
00:10:20Ahem.
00:10:21Gentlemen.
00:10:22Good evening.
00:10:23Brock Lesnar and I, first of all, want to let you know that we are both very sorry about
00:10:28what happened to X-Pac this evening.
00:10:30We also want you to know that had nothing to do with Brock Lesnar.
00:10:35Now, it's not gonna benefit any of us or our needs or our goals if the same thing that
00:10:42happened to X-Pac happens to the next big thing, Brock Lesnar.
00:10:46Now, I'm sure the four of you heard what Vince McMahon had to say.
00:10:49The winner of the king of the ring moves on to Summerslam and gets a shot at the undisputed
00:10:55title.
00:10:56And gentlemen, I assure you, the next undisputed champion in the WWE is the next big thing,
00:11:03Brock Lesnar.
00:11:04So please, govern your actions accordingly and stay out of Brock Lesnar's match tonight.
00:11:12Okay?
00:11:15Kinda sounds like a threat, Heyman.
00:11:18Is that what I'm hearing?
00:11:21Okay.
00:11:22I asked you nicely.
00:11:24Now I'm telling you to stay out of Brock Lesnar's match.
00:11:29You are telling us.
00:11:34Really?
00:11:35Really?
00:11:50King, this is a counter kick.
00:11:54I wanna see it blow.
00:11:58Lesnar staring in the face of the entire NWO.
00:12:01Man, what's gonna happen in Lesnar's match?
00:12:05What's it gonna be?
00:12:07Look at this.
00:12:09Heyman's lost his mind.
00:12:10Uh-oh, I think that's Lesnar's F5.
00:12:13Parker T may have lost this match.
00:12:15Parker T has, look at this, and it's over.
00:12:18Let's clean up.
00:12:19Here is your winner, Brock Lesnar.
00:12:24There's no outside interference, surprisingly, by the NWO.
00:12:28Heyman getting Lesnar out of here.
00:12:30Goldust trying to retrieve Booker T and get him out of the line of fire.
00:12:35Look at showboat Shawn.
00:12:37Watch this.
00:12:39What are we gonna do?
00:12:41Big Show hooking up Goldust.
00:12:43What a chokeslam by Shawn.
00:12:48It's four men on two.
00:12:50That's what this is.
00:12:51You know Shawn and Kevin Nash, they were a pretty damn good announce crew there, JR.
00:12:55We got, ooh.
00:12:56And we're watching over the show.
00:12:59Big Show with a low blow on Booker T.
00:13:03Here goes X-Pac.
00:13:05And X-Pac right back in the face of Booker T.
00:13:08The man that perhaps caused X-Pac's quarterfinal matchup earlier tonight.
00:13:12Now look, Shawn wants himself.
00:13:14He's begging Booker T to get up.
00:13:17Shawn Michaels no doubt the straw that stirs the drink in the NWO.
00:13:22And look at this, Booker T being pulled to his feet by the 500-pound Big Show.
00:13:27Stand up and take it like a man, Booker T.
00:13:30Ain't no king, but-
00:13:32Man.
00:13:33Again, Booker T being physically dissected by the four members of the NWO and
00:13:38Goldrouse who are just trying to help Booker T.
00:13:42He got drilled as well.
00:13:47There it is, JR.
00:13:49NWO salute.
00:13:51It's a real brotherhood.
00:13:53Triple H headed our way.
00:13:57It's good.
00:14:14Group hug.
00:14:15How you doing, man?
00:14:16Good, man.
00:14:17You sure?
00:14:18Yeah.
00:14:19Good luck to you, man.
00:14:20Thanks for bringing that strap on.
00:14:22Yeah.
00:14:23Hey, kiddo.
00:14:24What's up, man?
00:14:25They didn't look good.
00:14:27What's up, man?
00:14:29What's up, man?
00:14:30What's up, man?
00:14:31What's going on?
00:14:32Thanks.
00:14:33Hey, if you need us out there tonight, you throw it up, we'll be there, buddy.
00:14:40Get that strap.
00:14:41Man.
00:14:42It's gone on too long.
00:14:43We're getting our new locker room, man, playing that high high crap.
00:14:48Look, it's gone on too long.
00:14:49We need to win this thing and win it now.
00:14:51Listen.
00:14:52Get the job done.
00:14:53I'm tired of it.
00:14:54I'm tired of it.
00:14:55Get it done.
00:14:56We will.
00:14:57Get it done.
00:14:58If you don't guess what, I'm kicking your ass when you get back here.
00:15:01What, don't you believe that?
00:15:02Get the job done.
00:15:03You don't believe it?
00:15:04I don't believe it.
00:15:05I don't believe it.
00:15:06You don't believe it.
00:15:07I don't believe it.
00:15:08Get it done.
00:15:10Get it done.
00:15:11Get it done.
00:15:12Show me something.
00:15:13Show me something.
00:15:14Show me something.
00:15:15Show me something.
00:15:16You're gonna see something.
00:15:17Get it done.
00:15:18Because he did not give up his end of the bargain.
00:15:21It does not mean we won't.
00:15:22I'm knocking him out, man.
00:15:24I'm knocking him out.
00:15:25Uh-oh, here they come.
00:15:27Oh, man, what's gonna happen here?
00:15:29I know what Kevin Nash promised.
00:15:33Big Show lost to Booker T by Countout.
00:15:35A loss is a loss.
00:15:37Uh-oh.
00:15:38Uh-oh.
00:15:48My God.
00:15:49We have a tension here.
00:15:50Look out.
00:15:51Nash made on the Big Show.
00:15:52He promised it.
00:15:53He said he was gonna kick his ass.
00:15:55Whoa!
00:15:56And the Big Show retaliating.
00:16:00Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:16:02Kevin, Kevin, take it easy.
00:16:05Big Show back off.
00:16:07Come on.
00:16:08Enough of this tough love crap.
00:16:11It is not each other we want to destroy.
00:16:13It's Booker T.
00:16:15And believe me, he knows it.
00:16:16That's why he ran out of here hell-bent.
00:16:20That's why he's headed south right now back to Boston.
00:16:24Booker T, we know it was you that took out X-Pac.
00:16:30And come next week, the NWO is gonna take you out.
00:16:37Now, I need you two animals to calm down.
00:16:47I got a big, big announcement to make.
00:16:51Sean the Peacemaker.
00:16:53Cooler heads are prevailing.
00:16:55This is good.
00:16:58The NWO is a family.
00:17:03Now, believe me, I'll admit it.
00:17:05We are somewhat of a dysfunctional family, but we are a family nonetheless.
00:17:11Everybody has little spats.
00:17:14Like all families, we're not the same.
00:17:18When one of our family members is missing.
00:17:25And right now, one of our family members is injured.
00:17:32Now, I know what you're thinking, but I can assure you, it's not X-Pac.
00:17:39No.
00:17:40What?
00:17:41This family member is sitting comfortably at home recuperating.
00:17:50In fact, I can assure you, he's sitting there watching us right this minute.
00:17:58What are you talking about?
00:18:00Now, those of you that saw King of the Ring, you know who I'm talking about.
00:18:07Wait a minute.
00:18:08Wait a minute.
00:18:09We were at King of the Ring?
00:18:12You saw it.
00:18:14You felt it.
00:18:16You felt that electricity.
00:18:20You felt that undeniable chemistry when we all came together.
00:18:27That's why in the very, very near future, right here in this very ring, you will see standing alongside X-Pac,
00:18:49Big Show, Kevin Nash, and yours truly, HBK Shawn Michaels.
00:19:04Who is it?
00:19:06None other than the newest member of the New World Order.
00:19:21We're good, but we're going to be better.
00:19:25He's good, but he's going to be better, because it will be no one other than Triple H.
00:19:36What?
00:19:37Triple H?
00:19:38Triple H?
00:19:39Triple H is, he can't be joining the NWO.
00:19:41Wait, wait, wait a minute.
00:19:43There will be nothing that can stop the NWO.
00:19:48Now.
00:19:49You gotta admit it.
00:19:50You're right.
00:19:51That will admit it.
00:19:53Now, you two, let's finish this.
00:19:59Kiss and make up.
00:20:04Kiss and make up?
00:20:06Like just a little family.
00:20:09Dispatch.
00:20:10I'd settle for a handshake.
00:20:13Good, that bygone be bygone.
00:20:19What the?
00:20:24That still brings a tear to my eye.
00:20:39Now, you all know that as of last week, we have extended the offer to Triple H to come
00:20:46back home, to come back where he belongs.
00:20:51You see, about five years ago, myself, Kevin Nash, Kid, Scott Hall, show you weren't here
00:21:02yet, and Triple H, we're a pretty powerful group in this line of work.
00:21:11We traveled up and down the roads together.
00:21:14We trained together.
00:21:16We got, uh, we got hammered together.
00:21:21We, uh, not proud of it, but we carried one another to our rooms.
00:21:28You name it, and, uh, then we did it.
00:21:32But, at 20 plus days a month on the road with each other, each other was all we had.
00:21:45We were family.
00:21:48Now, Triple H, we've extended this offer.
00:21:53And as of right now, we've heard absolutely no reply from you.
00:21:59So, at this time, it's very important for me to inform you that the NWO, although we are
00:22:08a very forgiving family, we will in no way be ignored by anyone.
00:22:18You, Triple H, need us a heck of a lot more than we need you.
00:22:25I mean, look at you.
00:22:27You used to be one of the biggest, baddest SOBs in this company.
00:22:33And now, you come out here, you extend your arms, flex your back, and for what?
00:22:45All for the approval of the fans.
00:22:52Triple H, two weeks.
00:22:57Two weeks you've got.
00:22:59You're either standing with us, or you're standing against us.
00:23:05Now, Hunter, buddy, long before the NWO, there was the click.
00:23:18But just like the NWO, the click is for life.
00:23:24So, in two weeks, at Vengeance, you will either make the best decision of your life, or you will make the last decision of your life.
00:23:39We got people hurt everywhere.
00:23:44Triple H, what you see here is your future.
00:23:51At Vengeance, you will either stand tall with the NWO, or you will end up face down like all the rest.
00:24:05What's the- Now.
00:24:07He's full of himself, I love it.
00:24:12Baby, there you go.
00:24:17Everybody knows the last thing I wanna do is cause any trouble.
00:24:29Yeah.
00:24:30I don't wanna get in the middle of this whole lover's triangle thing.
00:24:37But if I remember correctly, it was me who said I was gonna come out here at Vengeance, and bring Triple H home.
00:24:47Bring him back to his buddies, the NWO.
00:24:52A couple of weeks ago, he didn't say that.
00:24:57There is, however, a problem with that.
00:25:00Big Cav is hurt, and Vince has basically decided that the NWO no longer exists.
00:25:07That's a fact.
00:25:11That notwithstanding, I can see, boy, you have got quite a dilemma on your hands.
00:25:19Decisions, decisions, decisions.
00:25:23Raw Smackdown, Smackdown Raw.
00:25:29Yeah.
00:25:30Boy, I wouldn't wanna be in your shoes.
00:25:34I would, however, like you to consider just two things in making your decision.
00:25:41Yeah, fans, remember DX.
00:25:56Big time.
00:25:57Those two things I'd like you to consider are friendship and fun.
00:26:06Now, besides maybe Big Cav, you know there's absolutely nobody in the world that is a better friend to you than yours truly, Shawn Michaels.
00:26:19And beyond a shadow of a doubt, there's absolutely nobody in this world you've had more fun with.
00:26:35So, picture this.
00:26:39Triple H, Shawn Michaels, letting their hair down, back in the saddle again.
00:26:46Making this guy's life a living hell.
00:26:50That could be interesting.
00:26:53And all you gotta do is come be a part of the show that we pioneered,
00:27:05put on the map, and made famous, Raw.
00:27:10Sounds good to me.
00:27:13Quite a sales pitch.
00:27:14I like it.
00:27:19That's tempting.
00:27:21It's real tempting, Shawn.
00:27:23Is he asking for help?
00:27:28Is this like, the price is right?
00:27:30Let's make a deal?
00:27:32What is it?
00:27:33Triple H gonna choose the two Fs?
00:27:40Fun and friendship?
00:27:41D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D.
00:27:46Out here in Detroit, counting for DX.
00:27:49Of course, Michaels and Triple H were members, founding members.
00:27:52I don't know.
00:27:53Sorry, Steph.
00:28:01What?
00:28:02What?
00:28:04Tonight, I, Eric Bischoff, bring you the combination of Triple H and Shawn Michaels.
00:28:21Uh-uh, but that's not all, because tonight, right here on Raw, I am going to name this man, Shawn Michaels, to be the manager of the game, Triple H.
00:28:40Triple H.
00:28:41Whoa.
00:28:42That's right.
00:28:43From now on, anytime you see Triple H in action, you're going to see this man, Shawn Michaels, in his corner.
00:29:00From now on, when you see this man in feature films around the world, you're going to see this man right here.
00:29:09Shawn Michaels, in a supporting role.
00:29:14From now on, anytime you see this man, Triple H, anywhere in the world, Shawn Michaels will not be far behind.
00:29:28Bischoff, I recognize you don't know me that well, and to be perfectly honest, I've got no problem being Triple H's manager.
00:29:51I do, however, have a huge, huge problem with you telling me anything.
00:29:58Uh-oh.
00:30:02Well, you see, Shawn, I'm telling you you're going to be Triple H's manager because I'm Eric Bischoff.
00:30:18And you will be Triple H's manager because I am Eric Bischoff.
00:30:33You see, Shawn Michaels, you don't have the stroke around here you had a couple years ago when you were pushing around Vince McMahon.
00:30:48I'm not Vince McMahon, I'm not Vince McMahon, I'm Eric Bischoff.
00:31:07And quite frankly, you don't have an alternative.
00:31:12Bischoff, Bischoff, Bischoff, Bischoff, Bischoff, Bischoff.
00:31:18I recognize you're Eric Bischoff.
00:31:24And it's high time you recognize that I'm Shawn Michaels.
00:31:36I don't need stroke around here.
00:31:39I've been here for 15 years.
00:31:41Everybody knows I don't react to ultimatums very well.
00:31:46I don't know how you feel about this.
00:31:48And I'm really sorry, buddy.
00:31:50But when I'm given a choice of your way or the highway,
00:31:57HBK always takes the highway.
00:32:01Well, you go right ahead.
00:32:04You go right ahead.
00:32:05Wait.
00:32:06You take the highway.
00:32:07Because if you do, you're walking out on every one of these fans.
00:32:12You're walking out on every fan around the world.
00:32:16I will not let you back.
00:32:20Wait a minute.
00:32:22Wait a minute.
00:32:24Shawn, you calm down.
00:32:27What do you mean calm down?
00:32:29I've got news for you.
00:32:30I've been around here for 15 years.
00:32:31I've earned the right to do what I want.
00:32:34You, of all people ought to know, I've got a big problem.
00:32:37People telling me what to do.
00:32:39Look, I know you came to Raw because of me.
00:32:43But that was your choice.
00:32:46I did not choose to work for Eric Bischoff.
00:32:49Oh, right.
00:32:50I came here because of you.
00:32:51And now you're gonna walk out on me, Shawn?
00:32:53You're gonna walk out on me?
00:32:55No, you're gonna walk out on everybody.
00:32:57It's not just me.
00:32:58It's the fans too.
00:32:59Bischoff was right.
00:33:01What's the matter, Shawn, huh?
00:33:03Is it because he told you what to do?
00:33:04Would being my manager really be that bad?
00:33:07You, with your back injury, you can't even work anymore.
00:33:11Shawn, would being by my side be that bad?
00:33:15Look, I, of all people, know that I'm not the showstopper anymore.
00:33:19But I've still got my pride.
00:33:21Where's it gonna stop?
00:33:23Checking into the hotels?
00:33:24Carrying your bags?
00:33:25You tell me!
00:33:26Damn it, Shawn.
00:33:27I'm not asking you to be my personal lackey.
00:33:29I'm asking you not to walk out the door.
00:33:32I'm asking you not to take your ball and go home like Stone Cold did.
00:33:37Please, Shawn.
00:33:40All I'm asking you to do is let's make the ride together.
00:33:45If you just calm down, Shawn, and just stay.
00:33:50Let me think this through.
00:33:53I think I've got an idea that'll make this all work.
00:33:57You better have a good idea.
00:34:00Shawn, just stay, all right?
00:34:03Cuz I promise you, if I can work this out, this will be damn good.
00:34:08You know, I was thinking about you a couple weeks ago.
00:34:16And you hit me with that super kick right there on the chin.
00:34:21What did you call it?
00:34:22Tough love?
00:34:24I'm looking at you now, Shawn.
00:34:26I don't see Kevin Nash.
00:34:28I don't see the rest of the NWO.
00:34:31You don't look so tough to me anymore.
00:34:34You know what, Shawn?
00:34:36I don't know how tough I am.
00:34:38I haven't been in the ring in four years.
00:34:41Maybe I'm tough.
00:34:42Maybe I'm not.
00:34:44How bad do you wanna find out?
00:34:47Maybe I will, Shawn.
00:34:50Maybe I will.
00:34:59What?
00:35:01What?
00:35:02Put that on.
00:35:08Are you serious?
00:35:10Oh, I'm dead serious.
00:35:12I'll see you in a few minutes.
00:35:13All right.
00:35:14All right.
00:35:19King, I knew it!
00:35:21I had a sneaky feeling!
00:35:23What?
00:35:25You gotta be kidding me!
00:35:26And how many knives have we set at ringside and enjoy?
00:35:30And sometimes they'd be in shock at the antics of D-Generation X.
00:35:36Oh, my God!
00:35:39And I got a feeling we're gonna see more of DX right here tonight.
00:35:43And there you see the leaders, the innovators, and DX colors.
00:35:47Oh, no!
00:35:48I can assure you, Eric Biscoff is not smiling right now!
00:35:56Certainly DX, a very anti-authority entity.
00:36:02They sold out arenas around the world.
00:36:04They dominated sports entertainment in a big way.
00:36:08Sometimes positively, sometimes negatively, to be quite frank about it.
00:36:14They were always, though, in the eye of the storm.
00:36:17And it looks like that Shawn Michaels and the game, that's where we're sitting,
00:36:21and at least for one run, anyway, put DX back together.
00:36:28Look at this!
00:36:30Look at this!
00:36:36Triple H declaring a vengeance for the little help from Shawn Michaels.
00:36:42The Triple H is leading SmackDown and coming to Raw.
00:36:46A big coup from General Manager Eric Bischoff.
00:36:50And all of us are huge.
00:36:53Now the gratitude to Shawn Michaels.
00:36:56But I think Shawn Michaels, the Triple H is best friend, really put it over the top.
00:37:02He sealed the deal, in my view.
00:37:05DX! Look at this! DX!
00:37:08Now what's gonna happen, JR? DX is back!
00:37:12What's next?
00:37:13Anything can happen.
00:37:14Anything can happen.
00:37:15When DX is back in the building.
00:37:21Remember Shawn Michaels said,
00:37:22Come to Raw, Hunter.
00:37:23It's about fun and friendship.
00:37:26And DX...
00:37:27Oh, my!
00:37:30You got that right! Oh, my!
00:37:35Just when you thought it was safe to turn on the old grappling show.
00:37:42Look who's back in town!
00:37:45The boys who were rebels before being a rebel was cool! D-Generation X!
00:38:02With that said...
00:38:03Well, here we go!
00:38:09That didn't take long, did it?
00:38:12Not long at all!
00:38:13These people remember!
00:38:14The X!
00:38:15You're damn right!
00:38:18Are you ready!
00:38:19Are you ready!
00:38:23I don't know if we are or not, but we better get ready!
00:38:29I said!
00:38:30Are you ready?
00:38:31Are you ready?
00:38:32Are you ready?
00:38:33Are you ready?
00:38:34Are you ready?
00:38:35Are you ready?
00:38:36I don't know if Eric Bishop is ready!
00:38:38Are you ready?
00:38:39Are you ready?
00:38:40Are you ready?
00:38:41Are you ready?
00:38:42Are you ready?
00:38:43I'm ready!
00:38:44Then...
00:38:45For the thousands in attendance, and for the millions watching at home, let's get ready
00:39:11to see what the hell is this about?
00:39:18What the hell is this about?
00:39:25What the hell is this about?
00:39:30What the hell is this about?
00:39:34Everybody is in shock.
00:39:39Triple H are not gonna hang around and have a chat with Shawn Michaels.
00:39:44Triple H is leaving after pedigreeing his best friend for God knows what reason.
00:39:52He took advantages of the freedoms of this country and he made something of himself.
00:40:00Oh, wait a minute.
00:40:02Oh, just a second here.
00:40:05Aha!
00:40:06I know I'm sexy.
00:40:07There's somebody that makes up on the steps.
00:40:09Oh, you're damn right.
00:40:10I think Shawn Michaels from Texas.
00:40:12Eric Bischoff!
00:40:13Eric Bischoff!
00:40:18Everybody's All-American Hero!
00:40:25I'm gonna get straight to the point.
00:40:30I want Triple H!
00:40:33What?
00:40:34Wait a minute.
00:40:35Oh, you gotta know that, King.
00:40:36You gotta know that.
00:40:37Now, I don't know if you gave him the night off.
00:40:41I don't know if he's stuck in traffic.
00:40:44For all I know, he shot himself in the temple after listening to these pinheads!
00:40:52The fact is, tonight, I am going to exercise my right as an American citizen to beat him from one side of this arena to the other!
00:41:11Oh, my God!
00:41:12Shawn Michaels is calling out the game!
00:41:14He wants to fight him here tonight!
00:41:16I'll tell you what, Shawn, Triple H isn't here right now, but as soon as he arrives,
00:41:21I'll talk to him, and I'm sure he'd like to address you face-to-face.
00:41:26In other words, your little has-been, take a hint, you're getting the hell off the stage!
00:41:31Uh-oh.
00:41:33Uh-oh.
00:41:34Look!
00:41:36Just because you Canucks are still upset because I smacked around your Canadian hero, Bret Hart!
00:41:47I suggest you do what he did and learn to live with it!
00:42:00Bischoff, either you find Triple H and bring him to me, or I'm gonna find him myself and drag what's left of him to you!
00:42:18Hunter!
00:42:23We're back live here, folks!
00:42:25What's gonna happen if he finds Hunter?
00:42:30Hunter!
00:42:31Well, well, well!
00:42:35If it ain't heartbreak kid, y'all saw your punk ass get pedigree last week!
00:42:45Yeah, it ain't so funny getting dissed in front of millions of people by somebody you thought was your crew!
00:42:52Yeah!
00:42:53What happened between you and me was business, not personal, alright?
00:42:58If you'll excuse me, I've got bigger things to worry about right now.
00:43:03Business, alright?
00:43:04Sounds to me like a personal invite to a ass whooping!
00:43:09I can dig that!
00:43:10Sucka!
00:43:11Sucka!
00:43:12Sucka!
00:43:13John Michael's still looking for her!
00:43:14Sean, did you see what just happened to me?
00:43:15Did you see Papa hit me in the back of that chair?
00:43:16Sean, look, I didn't see it.
00:43:17I'm busy right now, man.
00:43:18What do you mean you're busy?
00:43:19You don't have time for me right now?
00:43:20Did you see what happened to me?
00:43:21I got screwed over!
00:43:22I don't have time!
00:43:23I don't have time!
00:43:24Oh, now you don't have time?
00:43:25Okay.
00:43:26Maybe I ought to make you have time for me then.
00:43:27Hey, man.
00:43:28Yeah.
00:43:29You seen Triple H?
00:43:30No, I sure haven't.
00:43:31You can be at this door all night?
00:43:32All night.
00:43:33All night.
00:43:34This is what I need you to do.
00:43:35All night.
00:43:36This is what I need you to do.
00:43:37All night.
00:43:38All night.
00:43:39This is what I need you to do.
00:43:40If you're in the back of that chair.
00:43:41I'm in the back of that chair.
00:43:42I'm in the back of that chair.
00:43:43I'm in the back of that chair.
00:43:44Show.
00:43:45Look, I didn't see it.
00:43:46I'm busy right now, man.
00:43:47What do you mean you're busy?
00:43:48You don't have time for me right now?
00:43:49No, I swear.
00:43:54As soon as you see him, you let him know that Shawn Michaels is waiting for him out back
00:43:58in the parking lot.
00:43:59Will do.
00:44:00All right.
00:44:01Thanks, man.
00:44:02Shawn, I know you're in that parking lot waiting.
00:44:08I don't solve my problems in parking lots.
00:44:12I solve them in this ring.
00:44:15That's what I did Monday night, Shawn.
00:44:17I solved the problem when I pedigreed your ass.
00:44:21You want to know why I did it, Shawn?
00:44:26Let me tell you why.
00:44:28After all this time, after everything I've done, after everything I've been through for
00:44:37you, you couldn't do this one thing for me.
00:44:42It was my idea, Shawn, for you to be my manager.
00:44:48That's right, my idea.
00:44:51I knew that with you by my side, I would be unstoppable.
00:45:01But Shawn, you just couldn't do it, could you?
00:45:04You just couldn't lower yourself to being my manager.
00:45:09You could never relinquish the spotlight when it was time for somebody else to shine.
00:45:21Well, it's time to face facts, Shawn.
00:45:24And the fact is, the game has passed you by.
00:45:29The fact is, Shawn, now I am the showstopper.
00:45:38Now I am the icon.
00:45:41And you, Shawn, your career in this ring, it's over.
00:45:49Shawn, your back is busted up.
00:46:01And from what I see, your mind is more handicapped than your body.
00:46:06I mean, come on, Shawn, did you honestly think you could stand in here and still hang with
00:46:12me and be my equal?
00:46:15Come on, Shawn.
00:46:20Come on, Shawn.
00:46:21Monday night was a cold, hard slap in the face of reality for you.
00:46:29And reality is, Shawn, your career in here, your time, it's through.
00:46:39And deep inside you, you know it.
00:46:44Deep inside you, Shawn, you know that's the truth.
00:46:48And all you have left now, all you have left is your pride.
00:46:55And Shawn, all your pride can do at this point is get you hurt.
00:47:03Now, Shawn, I'm not going anywhere.
00:47:07So the way I see it, you've got two choices.
00:47:12You can listen to your pride.
00:47:18You can listen to your pride.
00:47:20And you can come down to this ring.
00:47:23And Shawn, you can try to fight me.
00:47:27You can try.
00:47:30Or, and Shawn, I'm only going to offer this one last time.
00:47:36You can put your pride aside.
00:47:40You can say, screw pride.
00:47:43And you can walk down to this ring.
00:47:46And you can accept your role.
00:47:50You can accept your disabilities.
00:47:54You can accept being my manager.
00:47:59What the hell do you want?
00:48:09What is this?
00:48:10I don't know.
00:48:11Stage manager, Nick Dawes, telling the game something.
00:48:18Where is he going?
00:48:30What's going on?
00:48:35He's headed toward the, that's a parking lot area.
00:48:38What the hell happened?
00:48:43What the hell happened?
00:48:45Oh, my.
00:48:46Oh, wow.
00:48:47Oh, wow.
00:48:51Oh, wow.
00:49:02We need an ambulance now.
00:49:04Somebody get help.
00:49:05Somebody go and get some help.
00:49:06Somebody get some help.
00:49:07Somebody get help.
00:49:08Yes.
00:49:09Who did that?
00:49:10Sean I've been going around this building all night trying to find out what
00:49:15happened and I'm getting nowhere to be quite frank just I mean did you see
00:49:19anything did you mean you got any idea who did this to you
00:49:23Hunter the only thing I know for sure is that the guy jumped me from behind I
00:49:29mean and after that man I don't I mean I don't remember anything I woke up in the
00:49:33hospital John I swear to you and I swear in front of all these people I'm gonna
00:49:40find out who did this to you and when I find out who did this that person is a
00:49:49marked man hey hey Hunter take it easy the police in Greensboro sent me some
00:49:57surveillance footage apparently they had a one of those security cameras out back
00:50:02you know back in the parking lot and they sent me the footage and if I can get
00:50:07these guys here to set that up for me I think if we watch this we might
00:50:12possibly be able to figure out just who did this can you guys run that for me

00:56:53this is
00:56:54this is beyond my wildest dreams
00:56:56that this match would go this long
00:56:58and the Shawn Michaels would thus far
00:57:00be able to survive
00:57:02the most calculating
00:57:03the most perfectly sound
00:57:05in ring competitor
00:57:06in ring competitor
00:57:07in the entire WWE
00:57:09not just the Mitch and Raw
00:57:10but the WWE
00:57:11I guess he does know what he's doing
00:57:16Triple H is staggering around
00:57:17as you said he's lost so much blood
00:57:19he's got to be in a weakened condition
00:57:21the game bringing those stairs in
00:57:24we could have Shawn Michaels
00:57:26those stairs
00:57:27that's exactly
00:57:28bullseye here
00:57:29the game's face
00:57:34bouncing off those stairs
00:57:36hit him
00:57:37cover him
00:57:38he's not down
00:57:39he has got
00:57:40he's barely able to stand

00:57:45taking the game over
00:57:46the game

00:57:49in that lap
00:57:50and Michaels going to the outside
00:57:51what's he gonna get now
00:57:52someone else is under there
00:57:53hey
00:57:55first it was a sledgehammer
00:57:58the stairs
00:57:59a ladder
00:58:01and now a table
00:58:02well these people were asking for tables
00:58:04we want tables
00:58:05Shawn has always been a man that
00:58:08would love to give the people what they want
00:58:10he is a show stopper
00:58:12but is this
00:58:13will this backfire on Shawn Michaels
00:58:15what a knot there
00:58:16man a straight right hand
00:58:17Triple H had his hands down
00:58:19and that bloody
00:58:20that he couldn't see it coming
00:58:21with so much blood in his face
00:58:23what
00:58:24Shawn Michaels setting this table up
00:58:29and I have no earthly idea what Shawn Michaels has planned for Triple H
00:58:34all sorts of stuff under that ring
00:58:37hey
00:58:38is that a fire stick
00:58:40a little guess
00:58:41right to the head
00:58:43and the gang landing on that table
00:58:46no
00:58:47my god Shawn
00:58:49Shawn Michaels
00:58:51is truly vintage Shawn Michaels he just throws caution to the wind no matter what condition his body's in
00:59:06two men from Raw giving us everything in their bodies every fiber of their being is on display here and Michaels now bringing that ladder back in the game has busted up he may have internal injuries and let's chop to the top through the table and what it gots now
00:59:13what it got
00:59:18wait a minute now
00:59:36Shawn Michaels has said, this is his one night only.
00:59:42He's doing it one more time, and by God he's gonna leave us.
00:59:46With everything he's got, with something that we will never, ever forget him.
00:59:51Michaels on top of that ten-foot ladder.
00:59:57The referee is begging him not to do it.
00:59:59Shawn Michaels, bands from the love of God to the elbow.
01:00:06Right to the heart of the game, from the ladder.
01:00:09He's all right, he's okay.
01:00:13Yes, he realizes, he's still got it, JR.
01:00:17Shawn Michaels with the elbow from the ladder, and now King tuning up that band.
01:00:23Yes.
01:00:27One of the all time great hits, number one for the bullet.
01:00:32Get up, Triple H.
01:00:33Get up and meet your best friend now.
01:00:35Triple H has lost a lot of blood in this bloodbath here at SummerSlam.
01:00:40Your friend's got something for you.
01:00:41No, it's blocked, and when he had it, it was blocked.
01:00:46No, no, Henry, my God, no.
01:00:49Michael Sparrow, will it be, can it be?
01:00:52Yes, HBK, my God, HBK.
01:00:57Here's your winner, number six, Shawn Michaels.
01:01:02In 25 years, I've never seen as much courage and the will to win.
01:01:08What about that?
01:01:11What about that, JR?
01:01:14A young man that called the fame bound, but nothing to prove.
01:01:18It was pride and passion, prevailing.
01:01:21My God.
01:01:22God Almighty.
01:01:24He hit him in the back with a sledgehammer.
01:01:27Right in the back.
01:01:30Triple H hits Shawn Michaels.
01:01:32Get that away from him.
01:01:33Get that hammer away.
01:01:34No, no, no.
01:01:35No.
01:01:36No, no, no, for God's sakes, no.
01:01:41Let's go.
