00:02:04They say...

00:02:05That nothing's forever.

00:02:07And they refuse to see the change in me.

00:02:10Why won't they wake up?

00:02:19Wake up!

00:02:20Wake up!

00:02:21Wake up!

00:02:22Wake up!

00:02:23Wake up!

00:02:24Wake up!

00:02:25Wake up!

00:02:26Wake up!

00:02:27Wake up!

00:02:28Wake up!

00:02:29Hello everyone and welcome to WWE Monday Night Raw.

00:02:33Live from the Jam Pack.

00:02:36Phillip Serena in Atlanta, Georgia.

00:02:38Joey Styles, the coach and the king at ringside.

00:02:42And what or not is going to be the road to WrestleMania 22, tournament starts tonight.

00:02:46This is why these men get into this business, this is why, with what you dream about growing up as a young kid.

00:02:52And tonight one of these eight superstars will start an odyssey, and it will end up in the main event against the WWE Champion at WrestleMania.

00:03:00It doesn't get any bigger than that, but I'm gonna tell you it gets hotter.

00:03:03You know she's too hot for TV.

00:03:05Proved it yesterday on ABC when they wouldn't show Candice Michelle's commercial.

00:03:09But tonight, we're gonna see it live on Raw.

00:03:12The uncensored version.

00:03:14Oh, I can't wait, Joey.

00:03:18Ladies and gentlemen, the former WWE Champion, Edge!

00:03:36There he is, everybody!

00:03:39There he is!

00:03:40And you won't be seeing former WWE Champion for very long, because Edge, the Rated-R Superstar, is on top of the world.

00:03:48Well, let's take you back to the confusing incident from last week before we went off the air

00:03:53that resulted in Edge officially defeating John Cena by disqualification.

00:03:58Boy, and you're right, confusing is an understatement.

00:04:01We are all here, as we're sitting here, as well as millions of people around the world.

00:04:05We didn't know exactly what went on.

00:04:07And everybody was really confused.

00:04:09John Cena was confused, Edge was confused.

00:04:11Everybody was confused.

00:04:13I think Lita, well, we know, Lita actually hit her own man, Edge!

00:04:18Edge!

00:04:35Edge!

00:04:38Edge!

00:04:40Last week, Lita blasted you with the WWE Championship.

00:04:44So I was wondering why...

00:04:46Shut up!

00:04:48First of all...

00:04:54I am pleased to announce that live, right here next week on Raw, there's gonna be a huge match.

00:05:03A huge match for the WWE Championship.

00:05:09It'll be your current and undeserving champion, John Cena.

00:05:19Versus the Rated-R Superstar himself, me.

00:05:27It's huge!

00:05:29And you may ask, why do I get a rematch?

00:05:34I'll ask.

00:05:35It's simple.

00:05:36Last week, I beat John Cena.

00:05:39Just like I said that Edge was going to do.

00:05:41Well, technically.

00:05:43I beat him by disqualification.

00:05:45I beat him by disqualification.

00:05:47And boo all you want.

00:05:48But that goes down in the record books as a victory for me.

00:05:54And that means, I get a rematch.

00:05:58Now, that disqualification happened when Lita hit me in the head with the WWE title.

00:06:08And that's been the burning question all week.

00:06:10Everybody's been, Rated-R, Rated-R, what's going on with Lita?

00:06:16Some people think maybe Lita had a change of heart.

00:06:21Maybe she's sick of the old Edgemeister.

00:06:25Maybe she has deep-rooted feelings for John Cena.

00:06:30I doubt that.

00:06:32Or maybe Lita saw that I was in the FU and came in and intentionally cost Cena the match.

00:06:40But really, the only person who can answer this question is Lita herself.

00:06:46So baby, baby, why'd you do it?

00:06:51I don't think so.

00:06:53You see, I'm always four moves ahead of you dumbasses.

00:07:08Lita isn't the issue.

00:07:09The issue is me beating John Cena for the WWE championship.

00:07:16And when I do, my championship reign, the most watched championship reign in over four years, continues.

00:07:31And that means that the winner of the Road to WrestleMania tournament will face me.

00:07:46And Maria, Maria, oh sweet little Maria.

00:07:51That also means that when you announce me, when you introduce me,

00:07:56you don't get that stupid little smile on your face.

00:08:00You don't bat your pretty green little eyes.

00:08:04And you don't call me the former WWE champion.

00:08:08You got that, toots?

00:08:09But you should be happy to be a former WWE champion.

00:08:17Look, babe, babe, I got this one, okay?

00:08:20Okay.

00:08:23Oh boy.

00:08:31Listen, dummy.

00:08:33Listen, dummy.

00:08:34I'm gonna make this really easy for you, okay?

00:08:39You take that little microphone of yours, and those pretty little lips,

00:08:45and you announce, my man, not as the former WWE champion,

00:08:52but the future WWE champion.

00:08:55You got it?

00:08:56But the future WWE champion.

00:08:59You got it?

00:09:08Ladies and gentlemen, the future WWE champion, Edge.

00:09:15That's got a nice ring to it.

00:09:16It really does.

00:09:21You know, Maria can get it.

00:09:22Why can't everybody else get it?

00:09:25Well, she was forced to get it.

00:09:27Hello!

00:09:28Hello!

00:09:29Uh-oh.

00:09:33Look at that!

00:09:34Hacksaw Jim Duggan!

00:09:36Oh my gosh!

00:09:41What?

00:09:44Why don't you get it?

00:09:46I don't get this.

00:09:47Everybody else gets it.

00:09:52Hello!

00:09:55Hello!

00:09:57Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

00:09:58Hey!

00:09:59Hey!

00:10:01I'm gonna give you two seconds.

00:10:02Take it easy, tough guy!

00:10:05Take it easy!

00:10:11That's Hacksaw.

00:10:12You know, I heard Vince McMahon was looking for a special guest referee

00:10:18for that big title match next week with John Cena!

00:10:25And I figure who's better to call it straight down the middle

00:10:29than Hacksaw Jim Duggan!

00:10:32That's a good idea!

00:10:34Wait, wait a minute.

00:10:35Who better?

00:10:36Who better?

00:10:37What the hell are you talking about?

00:10:38Who better?

00:10:39USA!

00:10:40USA!

00:10:42USA!

00:10:44USA!

00:10:45What?

00:10:46Hacksaw doesn't even know what he's doing right now, but who?

00:10:48Becoming a referee?

00:10:49Shut up!

00:10:50Shut up!

00:10:51Shut up!

00:10:52What the hell does the USA have to do with this?

00:10:57What the hell are you doing?

00:10:59Listen, for the past few weeks, you've been trying to make my girlfriend's life a living hell,

00:11:03and you want to be the guest referee?

00:11:05Well, I don't think so!

00:11:10Why?

00:11:11Because I called her off!

00:11:13Whoa, whoa, whoa!

00:11:14Don't do it!

00:11:16Don't go!

00:11:17All I did was call her off!

00:11:18Hey, wait a minute!

00:11:19I'm warning you!

00:11:20I'm warning you!

00:11:22Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

00:11:24Yeah!

00:11:26Okay.

00:11:27Okay, don't worry.

00:11:29I won't say nothing.

00:11:35On second thought, lead it to her!

00:11:44Oh!

00:11:45Thank you!

00:11:46Come on!

00:11:47What is this, now?

00:11:48Look at this!

00:11:49What do you mean, what is this?

00:11:50This is Hacksaw getting what he had coming to him!

00:11:54Well, Edge again, man!

00:11:55I didn't find it as funny as everyone else did!

00:11:57Oh, yeah!

00:11:59Well, Hacksaw is...

00:12:00Oh!

00:12:01God!

00:12:04I don't hear Hacksaw saying anything now.

00:12:08Maybe a little...

00:12:10Now, wait a minute, wait a minute.

00:12:11You're pointing at Maria.

00:12:16Well, Maria was laughing at Hacksaw.

00:12:17Maria needed to get...

00:12:18Everyone was laughing.

00:12:19Maria needed to get out of there.

00:12:21That was funny.

00:12:22You know it was funny.

00:12:24Oh, come on!

00:12:26That's funny.

00:12:27That's not funny.

00:12:30Oh!

00:12:31Good grief!

00:12:32He's pulled his hair off of the boots!

00:12:38Oh, no, wait a minute.

00:12:39Oh, oh, oh!

00:12:40What is...

00:12:41Oh, no, no, no, no!

00:12:42Wait, don't tell me that!

00:12:43No, no, no!

00:12:44He's in position for the spear!

00:12:47Here we go!

00:14:52round one match!

00:14:55Introducing first,

00:14:59he is one-half of the World Tag Team Champions,

00:15:03Kane!

00:15:04You know, the buzz going around all day

00:15:05has been absolutely...

00:15:06Hold on to your hat.

00:15:07Oh, no.

00:15:08Oh!

00:15:09As I was saying,

00:15:11the buzz has been absolutely amazing

00:15:13because all of these eight superstars

00:15:14understand what an unbelievable opportunity this is

00:15:18to main event at WrestleMania,

00:15:21and they all have,

00:15:22they're on the same playing field!

00:15:25And this young man,

00:15:26the masterpiece, Chris Masters,

00:15:29should he win this tournament

00:15:31and go on to win the WWE Championship

00:15:34at WrestleMania 22,

00:15:35would be the youngest WWE Champion in history

00:15:38at only 23 years old!

00:15:41And the winner of this match-up is Flash Clown.

00:15:49You're gonna be ashamed

00:15:50if you don't know this you person,

00:15:52Lito,

00:15:53today we're celebrating

00:15:59the return of Flash Clown.

00:16:03And making his way in the ring, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 275 pounds, the

00:16:24Masterpiece, Chris Masters!

00:16:25But before you tell us how great Chris Masters is, let me tell everybody to go right now

00:16:31to WWE.com and vote!

00:16:32The polls are open!

00:16:33We want to know who you think is going to win the Road to Wrestlemania tournament!

00:16:38Yeah, yeah, but who you think is going to win, not who you want to win!

00:16:43Think with your head, not with your heart!

00:16:45That's what all the fans out there would like to do!

00:16:49I know who I think is going to win this tournament!

00:16:54I'm going to hold out until I see all the matches tonight to give you my assessment.

00:16:58That means he wants to jump on the bandwagon if whoever wins, of course.

00:17:03Wow!

00:17:04But you know what guys, I did talk to Chris Masters earlier today, and after the performance

00:17:10him and Carlito gave last Monday night right here on Raw, Masters knows he belongs in the

00:17:14same ring with Kane.

00:17:16He knows he can beat the Big Red Monster here tonight.

00:17:18Well, I bet right now he wishes he weren't in the same ring with Kane.

00:17:23Uh-oh.

00:17:24Kane went for an all-dropping near 300 pounds with that elbow that misses, and the Masterpiece

00:17:30has a phenomenal physique, a Mr. Olympia-like physique, but in this case, do you really

00:17:35think, Kane, that he's more powerful than Kane?

00:17:37No, I don't, but I do know that, oh man, I do know that if Chris Masters gets that Masterpiece

00:17:44or that Master Lock locked on Kane, as powerful as Kane is, I don't even think Kane can get

00:17:49out of it.

00:17:50No, and nobody has been able to get out of it as of yet, and this is a one-on-one contest,

00:17:53boys.

00:17:54There's nobody out here to help Kane break the Master Lock.

00:17:57Oh, look out here.

00:17:58Oh, man.

00:17:59Beautifully executed swinging neckbreaker by the Masterpiece.

00:18:02Uh-oh.

00:18:04Beautifully executed sit-up by Kane.

00:18:07Uh-oh.

00:18:08Look out now.

00:18:10Here's some of that power from Kane.

00:18:12And a well-placed elbow by the Masterpiece at 7 feet and 300 pounds.

00:18:17Kane is truly a monster.

00:18:19Yeah, but look at the strength from the Masterpiece.

00:18:21Do you know why the Masterpiece may have the advantage here and in this tournament?

00:18:25Why, why?

00:18:26Wait a minute.

00:18:27Go ahead.

00:18:28Go ahead, Coach.

00:18:29Because I don't think he realizes the big stage that he's on.

00:18:30He's so young.

00:18:31Oh, he was looking for the Master Lock, and Kane turned around.

00:18:34It's like Kane almost felt it.

00:18:37I can't imagine what that boot to the face feels like.

00:18:40I was about to say that Chris Masters is feeling the wrath of Kane right now.

00:18:44Well, and Kane certainly knows what it feels like to be in WrestleMania.

00:18:47He's competed in seven different WrestleManias.

00:18:50Look out.

00:18:51Two clotheslines at the corner and a side slam.

00:18:54Kane leaving no breathing room for the Masterpiece.

00:18:59Uh-oh.

00:19:00This is not, this is not boding well for Chris Masters.

00:19:03The monster is on the ropes.

00:19:06Here he comes.

00:19:07Oh, wait a second.

00:19:08Oh, look out here.

00:19:09A side step by the Masterpiece.

00:19:11He's going for the Master Lock.

00:19:12No.

00:19:13Great counter.

00:19:14We haven't seen that yet.

00:19:15The stunt man.

00:19:18Oh, great counter.

00:19:19Counter to the choke slam.

00:19:20Thumb to the eye.

00:19:21No matter how big and bad you are, your eyes are always vulnerable.

00:19:24And you can see that being in the ring with Kane in the past is serving Masterpiece very,

00:19:28very well.

00:19:29It's a young man who learns.

00:19:30Oh, there you go.

00:19:31Going for it again.

00:19:32Looking for it again.

00:19:34Half Nelson with a goal behind.

00:19:36Drop down by Kane and a boot to the head.

00:19:38Another great counter to the Master Lock.

00:19:42Huge ear there.

00:19:43You know, it goes both ways, Coach.

00:19:45Kane has been in the ring many times now with the Masterpiece and has figured out many ways

00:19:49to counter that Master Lock or so it would seem.

00:19:51I agree with you there.

00:19:52Oh, but here we go again.

00:19:53Lock it in, baby.

00:19:56Kane drops down again.

00:19:57He's got the ring in the ropes.

00:19:58Ring in the ropes.

00:19:59Did you see that?

00:20:00I saw it.

00:20:01I saw the Masterpiece with the win.

00:20:02Here is your winner, the Masterpiece, Chris Masters.

00:20:07Well, you saw it.

00:20:08I saw it.

00:20:09This jam-packed Phillip Torino saw it.

00:20:11But referee Jack Doan did not see the Masterpiece grab the ropes.

00:20:15And that's the only set of eyes that mattered.

00:20:16And you know what they say.

00:20:17If it doesn't happen the first time, try, try again.

00:20:20And the second time, Chris Masters got it done.

00:20:23What a huge win for the youngster, the Masterpiece.

00:20:26This has got to be the biggest win yet in this man's career.

00:20:29Look at this.

00:20:31He is well on his way to the road to the main event at WrestleMania.

00:20:34Oh, yeah.

00:20:35The Masterpiece has taken one step forward on the road to the WrestleMania 22 main event.

00:20:40I've got to tell you guys.

00:20:41I'm going to be perfectly honest with you.

00:20:43I'm in shock.

00:20:44The Masterpiece advances past Kane.

00:20:49I'm sorry, Jim.

00:20:50I need to hear this from you.

00:20:51Next week, there's going to be a special guest referee.

00:20:53Oh, yeah.

00:20:54It's a championship match.

00:20:55Why not have a special guest referee?

00:20:57OK.

00:20:58OK.

00:20:59Fine.

00:21:01I think the special guest referee should be Lita.

00:21:04Lita?

00:21:05Yeah.

00:21:06What do you think?

00:21:07Isn't that great?

00:21:08Don't you think she might be just a little bit biased in your favor?

00:21:14Look, Mr. McMahon.

00:21:15Isn't there anything I can do so you could see things our way?

00:21:19I'd really love to ref that special match.

00:21:25Let me get this straight.

00:21:28You're standing there and you're encouraging your girlfriend to come on to...

00:21:33I find this repugnant.

00:21:36I find it repulsive.

00:21:39What the hell kind of a man are you?

00:21:41You'd pimp out your own girlfriend just to gain a favor like this and advantage in a championship match?

00:21:47You know what?

00:21:48I find qualities like that to be...

00:21:53admirable, actually.

00:21:54I mean, when you think about it, it means that you would do anything

00:21:58to win the WWE Championship.

00:22:00Yeah.

00:22:01Well, congratulations.

00:22:04You know, but I'm going to allow you the opportunity to perhaps name Lita.

00:22:09Because I'm going to put the two of you in a match tonight.

00:22:13The winner of this match will name the guest referee in the championship match next week.

00:22:19So it'll be then tonight, here in Atlanta, it'll be you two in a mixed tag team matchup.

00:22:24You and Lita against, let's see, Maria and the champ John Cena.

00:22:40Wow.

00:22:41Oh, wow.

00:22:42There she is, it's Ashley.

00:22:43She's on her way to the ring for a Royal Rumble rematch.

00:22:46But what about that tag team match we're going to see tonight?

00:22:49Oh, Cena and Maria!

00:22:54Wow.

00:22:57I love that sound.

00:22:59Raw is back live and this is a Royal Rumble rematch.

00:23:04I love that top.

00:23:06Yes.

00:23:07Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the special guest referee,

00:23:11the WWE Women's Champion, Trish Stratus.

00:23:17Now, let's see what happened last Monday here on Raw.

00:23:21Ashley called Mickie a psycho and then, well, a whole ceremony was ruined.

00:23:28She thinks exactly what everyone here thinks.

00:23:31Mickie James is a psycho.

00:23:36Yeah.

00:23:37Yeah.

00:23:38Fine.

00:23:39Fine.

00:23:40I don't even want to bother you ever again.

00:23:42Shut it.

00:23:44And there.

00:23:45And there you see it once again.

00:23:48Mickie James all over Ashley.

00:23:50I mean, either she can just turn her emotions on and off

00:23:53or she really is a dangerous psycho.

00:23:56Yeah, but you saw Trish Stratus pull Ashley off of Mickie James

00:24:00and I think Mickie sort of misinterpreted that.

00:24:03I think Mickie thought that Trish was helping him there.

00:24:06At the end of the day, it's all about impressing Trish Stratus.

00:24:11At the end of the day, it's all about impressing Trish Stratus.

00:24:13Isn't that right, Kenny?

00:24:15I know I'm trying my best.

00:24:17The following contest is scheduled for one fall.

00:24:20Introducing first, from New York City,

00:24:22she's the 2005 Raw Diva Search winner, Ashley.

00:24:27Oh, man.

00:24:28You don't need car keys to drive me crazy.

00:24:31Look at that.

00:24:33Well, folks, we can tell you tonight,

00:24:34WWE Raw is being brought to you by stickers

00:24:38who remind you that it's only satisfying if you eat them.

00:24:41And by Subway.

00:24:43Celebrate this new year by keeping your resolution.

00:24:45Stop at a Subway restaurant tonight.

00:24:47Subway.

00:24:54And from Richmond, Virginia, Mickie James.

00:24:58You know, it really is amazing, King,

00:25:00how Mickie James turns her emotions on and off like a faucet.

00:25:05Or is she not doing it consciously?

00:25:07I mean, does she just snap backwards and forwards?

00:25:10Is she a psycho is what I'm asking, guys.

00:25:13Well, just about all the women I've ever been around

00:25:16were able to turn their emotions on and off like a faucet.

00:25:18But Mickie James does it to a different level.

00:25:20Look at this now.

00:25:21Mickie James, she barely waited for the bell to ring.

00:25:24And again, we have a very odd situation here.

00:25:26Well, Trish Stratus, the WWE Women's Champion,

00:25:29is the referee.

00:25:30She basically trained Ashley to wrestle.

00:25:33And Mickie James idolizes Trish.

00:25:35And you saw the smile that was on Mickie James' face right there.

00:25:38Boom.

00:25:39The bell rings.

00:25:40It's to intensity.

00:25:41Well, I'm going to tell you, what an intense night.

00:25:43This is a huge night.

00:25:44We're getting right here a rematch from the Royal Rumble.

00:25:46And this, man, this is one of the WrestleMania tournaments

00:25:49off the hook.

00:25:50Oh, look out.

00:25:54Oh, man.

00:25:57Nice counter to the head scissors by Ashley.

00:25:59She's got some wicked right hands.

00:26:01Yes, she does.

00:26:03She follows up with nice forearms.

00:26:04And again, those were taught to her by Trish Stratus.

00:26:07Wicked right hand.

00:26:08Oh, hey, wait a minute.

00:26:10Mickie just clobbered Trish after Ashley sidestepped

00:26:13that flying elbow.

00:26:14Oh, wait a second.

00:26:15Hold on.

00:26:16It's a roll-up.

00:26:17It's a roll-up.

00:26:18Oh.

00:26:19Three count, just like that.

00:26:22Here's your winner, Ashley.

00:26:24And just like that, Trish just counts to three

00:26:27and Trish is out of here.

00:26:28She did her job.

00:26:29She's a referee.

00:26:30She counted to three.

00:26:31The shoulders were down.

00:26:33Now, Mickie James has got that confused look on her face.

00:26:36You don't have anybody to blame but yourself, I think.

00:26:38And Trish isn't even turning her back.

00:26:40I mean, what the hell just happened?

00:26:43I mean, Trish did not even.

00:26:46Wait, wait, wait.

00:26:47Go, go, go.

00:26:48What is that look on her face?

00:26:49Hey, guys, you're going to look right here.

00:26:52Oh, man.

00:26:53Ashley got the flying arm.

00:26:55Mickie James is a referee.

00:26:56Trish is.

00:26:57Well, first of all, that was an accident.

00:26:59And this right here is the fastest count I've ever seen.

00:27:03What are you talking about?

00:27:04Not at all.

00:27:05What are you talking about?

00:27:06Trish didn't even raise her hand.

00:27:07Did not do her job.

00:27:08Well, that's pretty weird.

00:27:10Mickie was dropped in a big, big way.

00:27:12Well, guys, still to come, are you kidding me?

00:27:14The Road to WrestleMania 22 tournament continues.

00:27:17And when these two drew each other,

00:27:19you had to believe they were loving it.

00:27:21Triple H, one-on-one against his former best friend,

00:27:24the Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

00:27:26Oh.

00:27:27Keep in mind that the winner of this tournament

00:27:29goes on to the main event at WrestleMania.

00:27:32What about that match we heard Mr. McMahon make?

00:27:34John Cena's going to team with Maria

00:27:36to take on Edge and Lita.

00:27:38And the winner of this big tag team match

00:27:40gets to name the special referee

00:27:42for next week's title match.

00:27:47You're watching WWE Monday Night Raw

00:27:50live from the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.

00:27:53Oh, it's hot Atlanta tonight, baby.

00:27:57It is jam-packed here tonight.

00:28:00There's an absolute electric atmosphere

00:28:03inside Phillips Arena

00:28:04because of this tournament tonight.

00:28:06We got to see what happened during the commercial break

00:28:09on WWE.com Unlimited.

00:28:11Do we have to?

00:28:14The Spirit Squad introduced themselves.

00:28:19Look at these guys.

00:28:22Yeah!

00:28:24Come on, baby!

00:28:26Yeah!

00:28:32What? Tell me, guys.

00:28:33I mean, these guys really do a great job

00:28:35of getting the entire crowd pumped up.

00:28:37I love the Spirit Squad, you know that.

00:28:38They've got a lot of spirit.

00:28:39And I wish people would take their lead.

00:28:41Let's hear it for the Spirit Squad!

00:28:44You know, Coach, I can see how you would love those guys,

00:28:47I can tell you.

00:28:48But I, you know, I can see how everyone

00:28:50would love WWE.com Unlimited

00:28:52because you get to see all the action that takes place

00:28:55during the commercial break

00:28:56right on your computer.

00:28:57And right now, you know what I'm about to do?

00:28:58What are you going to do?

00:28:59I'm about to vote for who I think

00:29:00is going to win the Road to WrestleMania 22.

00:29:02But, but, but, King,

00:29:03don't look at who I'm voting for.

00:29:05Go on the record.

00:29:06Let's see who you're going to vote for.

00:29:07No, wait, wait, wait, don't see this.

00:29:08Wait, wait, wait.

00:29:09We've got a camera on you.

00:29:10He's looking!

00:29:12Wait a minute, let me submit.

00:29:15With your head, King, not with your heart.

00:29:18Oh, wait a minute.

00:29:19Wait a minute, here comes my heart.

00:29:21Trish, oh my God, I am so sorry.

00:29:23I didn't mean to hit you out there.

00:29:24I'm so sorry.

00:29:25Please.

00:29:26I know as the referee,

00:29:27you were just doing your job

00:29:28and you made the right call.

00:29:30Yeah, I did.

00:29:31Yeah, and Trish, you know,

00:29:33I know I can seem very passionate at times,

00:29:37but I want you to know,

00:29:38I mean, I do love you as a friend

00:29:42and as my idol, as an inspiration.

00:29:46All right, well, thanks for that.

00:29:47I appreciate it.

00:29:48Trish.

00:29:49Hey, where are you?

00:29:51Mickey, this is my date, Jack.

00:29:54Hi.

00:29:55Mickey?

00:29:57Hi, Mickey.

00:29:58I've heard so much about you.

00:30:00Nice to meet you.

00:30:02Trish, you want to go and get dressed?

00:30:03Yeah.

00:30:04We have reservations for dinner.

00:30:05Okay, cool.

00:30:14Whoa.

00:30:16Here, I got your oxygen.

00:30:18I got everything you need, you know.

00:30:20Everything's fine.

00:30:21You're going to be all right today.

00:30:22You know what I'm saying?

00:30:23Anyway, I just got to tell you,

00:30:24I had to go and confront Ric Flair.

00:30:26Oh, really?

00:30:27That's right.

00:30:28I had to tell him that

00:30:29I'm going to take that Intercontinental Championship.

00:30:31That's my baby.

00:30:32That's right.

00:30:33And you know Ric Flair

00:30:34had the nerve to call me a mama's boy?

00:30:36That's the second time

00:30:37someone done called me mama's boy.

00:30:38I'm kind of getting a little sick of it,

00:30:39to be honest.

00:30:40You are not nobody's mama's boy.

00:30:41You my boy, and I'm your mama.

00:30:44That's right.

00:30:45You're right, mama, but...

00:30:46Mama, you know what?

00:30:47I left my phone in the locker room.

00:30:50I got to go get it.

00:30:51I'll be right back.

00:30:52Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:30:54You can't just leave me here.

00:30:55No, Lord.

00:30:56What's wrong, ma?

00:30:57No, because every time you leave,

00:30:58some old super freak come up in my face

00:31:01with some craziness.

00:31:02Now, first it was that big guy, Visceral.

00:31:04Then it was that Hannibal Lecter's baby brother, Goldust.

00:31:09And you don't tell them

00:31:10what piece of garbage you come out here now.

00:31:12Mama, mama.

00:31:13Don't worry about it.

00:31:15You saw what happened to Goldust last week.

00:31:18You know what happened to Visceral.

00:31:20He didn't want to be a darn fool

00:31:23to try to mess with my mama.

00:31:25Now, you sit right here.

00:31:26I'll be right back.

00:31:27I promise.

00:31:28It'll only take a second.

00:31:29All right?

00:31:30All right.

00:31:31Love you, mama.

00:31:32I love you too, baby.

00:31:33All right.

00:31:34Be right back.

00:31:35He sure is a good boy.

00:31:37When I get home,

00:31:38I'm going to have to make him some peach cobbler

00:31:40with some French vanilla ice cream

00:31:42because that sure is his favorite.

00:31:44Oh, and that's my baby coming now.

00:31:49Let's see this.

00:31:51Oh, you've got an action figure.

00:31:54That's awesome.

00:31:55Oh!

00:31:56Come on.

00:31:57Come on.

00:31:58Come on.

00:31:59Get over here, boy.

00:32:00Hi.

00:32:01My name is Eugene.

00:32:02Like I care.

00:32:03I ain't going to ask you nothing.

00:32:04I know who you are.

00:32:06I saw your movie.

00:32:09Good movie.

00:32:10Big Mama's House 2.

00:32:17Can I take your wig off?

00:32:20This is not a wig.

00:32:21Yeah, I know how.

00:32:22No, you don't.

00:32:23Ow!

00:32:24Stop!

00:32:25Uh-oh.

00:32:26You're going to make me cut you.

00:32:27Big Mama rules!

00:32:28Get back by me!

00:32:29Mama, what's wrong?

00:32:30What are you doing here?

00:32:31I didn't do nothing.

00:32:32Get out of here!

00:32:33Mama, you okay?

00:32:34Yeah.

00:32:35I'm sorry.

00:32:36Are you okay?

00:32:37Are you shot?

00:32:38I'm all right.

00:32:39You need oxygen?

00:32:40You have to leave me when I'm with these crazy-ass people.

00:32:42You're going to make me catch a case.

00:32:44I'm going to have to cut somebody up in here.

00:32:45Oh, Lord.

00:32:46Somebody give me some oxygen.

00:32:47Come on.

00:32:48Give me the oxygen!

00:32:49Get some oxygen, Mama.

00:32:50Get your monkey-ass mouth out.

00:32:53You crazy boy.

00:32:58Well, my mama gets the oxygen, folks.

00:33:00This next match, oh, you want to buckle your seatbelts.

00:33:03These two men know all about headlining WrestleMania.

00:33:06It's the nature boy.

00:33:07It's the game.

00:33:08Two of the greatest names in the business.

00:33:10They battle it out.

00:33:11Who will move on in the WrestleMania tournament?

00:33:14It's live, and it's next.

00:33:18And now, the WrestleMania big-time moment,

00:33:21sponsored by Snickers,

00:33:22the official satisfying candy bar of WrestleMania 22.

00:33:26You know, I left tickets for Bill Buckner,

00:33:29but he couldn't bend over to pick them up.

00:33:32How about it?

00:33:34Speaking of the World Series,

00:33:35and the great tradition here in Boston with the Red Sox.

00:33:38The city of losers.

00:33:42Hellfire and Brimstone personified.

00:33:46And if I were Pete Rose,

00:33:47I might consider heading to the dugout.

00:33:50Don't worry about Pete.

00:33:51He's tough.

00:33:52Pete Rose a little bit nervous here,

00:33:53and who can blame him?

00:33:54Pete may think this is fun and games.

00:33:56Wait a minute!

00:33:57No, no!

00:33:58That's Pete Rose!

00:33:59That's Pete Rose!

00:34:00Pete Rose just got Tombstone!

00:34:03I cannot believe it!

00:34:06That was the WrestleMania big-time moment,

00:34:09sponsored by Snickers,

00:34:10the official satisfying candy bar of WrestleMania 22.

00:34:19Raw is back live,

00:34:20and the road to the WrestleMania 22 main event,

00:34:23the challenge for the WWE Championship continues.

00:34:34Ha, ha, ha!

00:34:44It's a look at the face of The Game, Triple H.

00:34:48But Hulk, you said earlier,

00:34:50don't vote with your heart,

00:34:53vote with your brain.

00:34:55And I think if you asked everyone out there,

00:34:57their brain would have to tell them that this man,

00:34:59The Game, is a huge favorite in this tournament.

00:35:03The following is a road to WrestleMania tournament,

00:35:06round one match scheduled for one fall.

00:35:09Introducing first, from Greenwich, Connecticut,

00:35:12weighing in at 265 pounds,

00:35:15Triple H!

00:35:18When you talk about a man

00:35:19who knows all about big-time moments,

00:35:21you're looking at a man that has headlined

00:35:23WrestleMania five different times.

00:35:26And here's a man in Triple H

00:35:27that wants to make it number six.

00:35:30But he knows he has to go through the nature boy

00:35:32right here live tonight to get it done.

00:35:34And the nature boy is a 16-time world champion.

00:35:42Look at that intensity.

00:35:44The categories are huge here tonight.

00:35:46The stakes are huge, the egos are huge,

00:35:49and what is on the line is huge.

00:35:55And by the way, tickets go on sale

00:35:57for the return of WWE Saturday Night Main Event on NBC.

00:36:01Tickets go on sale this Saturday in Detroit.

00:36:06WWE is back on NBC.

00:36:09Hey, and I've got to be a part of that.

00:36:11You know the coach.

00:36:12You talk about Saturday Night Main Event,

00:36:14oh baby, you know I'll be there.

00:36:16Running back to Motor City,

00:36:17first he put this to Super Bowl,

00:36:18and now they've got Saturday Night Main Event.

00:36:29Here we go.

00:36:31And making his way to the ring,

00:36:33from Charlotte, North Carolina,

00:36:35he is the Intercontinental Champion,

00:36:39the Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

00:36:43Well, coach, you, Joey Styles,

00:36:45you guys want to talk about respect.

00:36:47There is no one in this entire industry

00:36:50that is more respected than that man right there,

00:36:52the nature boy, Ric Flair.

00:36:55All right, I'll grant you that.

00:36:56I'll give you that.

00:36:57The man has earned the respect that everybody gives him.

00:37:00But it doesn't mean that he's going to beat Triple H.

00:37:03It doesn't mean he's going to Main Event at WrestleMania.

00:37:06Triple H has ended careers.

00:37:08He has ended dreams.

00:37:10Let me stop you right there.

00:37:12Triple H tried his damnedest to end Nature Boy's career,

00:37:16and he wasn't able to do it.

00:37:17And you know what?

00:37:18Triple H is going to try his damnedest

00:37:20to win this match tonight,

00:37:21and he may not be able to do it.

00:37:23And besides the shot at Main Event at WrestleMania,

00:37:26there are some personal issues here.

00:37:28It goes all the way back to Evolution,

00:37:30all the way back to Taboo Tuesday

00:37:32when Ric Flair defeated Triple H in a steel cage match.

00:37:34Then a Survivor Series last man standing.

00:37:37Triple H won and tried to end the career of Ric Flair.

00:37:40Joey, you're the master of understatement.

00:37:42You say there are some personal issues here?

00:37:45Oh, man, they're huge.

00:37:47And I don't believe for a second

00:37:48what Ric Flair said on WWE.com Unlimited,

00:37:51that Evolution made it possible

00:37:53for Triple H to be at the top of the mountain.

00:37:55That because of Evolution is the reason

00:37:57Triple H was successful.

00:37:58Well, whether you believe it or not,

00:38:00I think Ric Flair believes it.

00:38:01And by the way,

00:38:02this is not an Intercontinental title match, right?

00:38:04Uh, no.

00:38:05Okay.

00:38:06Nope.

00:38:07But one can argue there is much, much more at stake.

00:38:10Well, the stakes are certainly

00:38:11about as high as you can get.

00:38:13The winner of this tournament...

00:38:15Wait a minute.

00:38:17I had a one count there.

00:38:19The winner of this tournament

00:38:20will Main Event WrestleMania

00:38:22and challenge the WWE Champion.

00:38:24That is huge!

00:38:26Yes, it is.

00:38:27But to get through this tournament,

00:38:28you got to win three different matches.

00:38:30And I tell you what,

00:38:31that's going to be hard to do

00:38:32with the eight guys.

00:38:33Well, I should say seven guys that are remaining.

00:38:35HGA!

00:38:36The top superstars.

00:38:37Look at the block.

00:38:38Look at the block.

00:38:39Ooh!

00:38:44Man.

00:38:45A couple of chops.

00:38:46A few right, left.

00:38:47More chops.

00:38:48I'd say the Nature Boy is feeling good.

00:38:50He's styling and profiling.

00:38:52Uh-oh, wait a minute.

00:38:53Oh!

00:38:54He may have set his head

00:38:55just a moment too soon.

00:38:56And as always, the game capitalized.

00:38:58Oh, yeah, here we go.

00:38:59He's looking for the pedigree.

00:39:01Oh, look out!

00:39:03Whoa!

00:39:06Triple H is down on the outside.

00:39:08Who is going to move on

00:39:09in the Road to WrestleMania tournament?

00:39:11Will it be Triple H

00:39:12or will it be Ric Flair?

00:39:15Raw is back live.

00:39:16This is the Road to WrestleMania

00:39:18Main Event Tournament,

00:39:19the first round.

00:39:20Ric Flair against Triple H.

00:39:21Uh-oh.

00:39:22And look at Ric Flair

00:39:23go.

00:39:24Let's take a look

00:39:25at what happened

00:39:26during the break

00:39:27on WWE.com Unlimited.

00:39:28Well, Coach,

00:39:29you can talk about Triple H

00:39:30all you want,

00:39:31but Flair has pretty much

00:39:32been dominating the game

00:39:33throughout this match.

00:39:34He still continues to do it.

00:39:35If you get a shot of Flair,

00:39:36or not Flair,

00:39:37but of Triple H's chest,

00:39:38it is,

00:39:39it looks like

00:39:40it's actually glowing.

00:39:41It's so red.

00:39:42Well, King,

00:39:43I always call it down the middle

00:39:44and I'll call it

00:39:45like I see it right now.

00:39:46Ric Flair came out tonight.

00:39:47A great game plan

00:39:48and the intensity

00:39:49that he needed.

00:39:50What impact

00:39:51on the spine buster.

00:39:52But then again,

00:39:53it's not going to be enough

00:39:54because the game

00:39:55is the game.

00:39:58Triple H,

00:39:59a former ten-time

00:40:00WWE and world

00:40:01heavyweight champion,

00:40:02Ric Flair,

00:40:03has held those titles

00:40:04a combined 16 times.

00:40:08And now the game

00:40:09is just raining down

00:40:10punches,

00:40:11bare knuckles

00:40:12against the skull

00:40:13of the nature boy,

00:40:14Ric Flair.

00:40:15You're watching

00:40:16WWE Monday Night Raw

00:40:17live from Atlanta, Georgia.

00:40:19You know,

00:40:20the game himself

00:40:21a ten-time

00:40:22world champion

00:40:23and would like

00:40:24nothing more

00:40:25than to beat

00:40:26the WWE champion

00:40:27at WrestleMania

00:40:28on the biggest stage

00:40:29that there is.

00:40:30That's the kind

00:40:31of competitor

00:40:32this man is.

00:40:33Loves the big stage.

00:40:34Well, I don't think

00:40:35John Cena would

00:40:36shy away from it.

00:40:37You don't mean,

00:40:38you don't think

00:40:39Edge would shy away

00:40:40from an opportunity.

00:40:41Well,

00:40:42whomever the champion

00:40:43may be,

00:40:44look out!

00:40:45The game tearing

00:40:46a page out of

00:40:47the book of the nature boy,

00:40:48Ric Flair

00:40:49in the knee

00:40:50of the skull

00:40:51of Flair.

00:40:52You can see the look

00:40:53of confidence

00:40:54on the face

00:40:55right now

00:40:56of Triple H.

00:40:57He thinks he's got

00:40:58this thing well in hand.

00:40:59There's something

00:41:00else to consider

00:41:01that Triple H

00:41:02has always been

00:41:03obsessed with the

00:41:04clips in Ric Flair's

00:41:05record of being

00:41:06a sixteen-time

00:41:07heavyweight champion.

00:41:08No doubt about it,

00:41:09Triple H and Ric Flair,

00:41:10they're not just

00:41:11happy being

00:41:12at WrestleMania.

00:41:13They want to

00:41:14headline WrestleMania.

00:41:15Everybody wants

00:41:16to meet

00:41:17at WrestleMania.

00:41:18If you don't want

00:41:19to be a superstar,

00:41:20you shouldn't be a superstar.

00:41:21You shouldn't lace up

00:41:22a pair of boots,

00:41:23King.

00:41:24Am I correct?

00:41:25You're exactly right,

00:41:26but right now,

00:41:27I'm a little concerned

00:41:28about the condition

00:41:29of the stage.

00:41:30Man,

00:41:31that's about four of

00:41:32those knees

00:41:33been driven into his head.

00:41:34Look out.

00:41:35Not only the opportunity

00:41:36to main event

00:41:37WrestleMania,

00:41:38but the opportunity

00:41:39to be WWE champion.

00:41:40I mean,

00:41:41all those things

00:41:42wrapped into one

00:41:43makes it the biggest

00:41:44opportunity of the entire year.

00:41:45For a lot of these guys,

00:41:46the biggest opportunity

00:41:47of their lifetime.

00:41:48It's so huge,

00:41:49and the upcoming weeks

00:41:50are going to be

00:41:51off the hook.

00:41:52I mean,

00:41:53the road to WrestleMania

00:41:54is so big.

00:41:55Look out now.

00:41:56Look at the delay

00:41:57on this vertical suplex.

00:41:58All the blood rushing

00:41:59to the head

00:42:00of Nature Boy,

00:42:01Ric Flair,

00:42:02the game-making

00:42:03flair,

00:42:04think about it.

00:42:05That's what I was

00:42:06just going to point out.

00:42:07He has nailed Ric Flair

00:42:08in the head so many times.

00:42:09Now all the blood

00:42:10is in the head.

00:42:11Cover,

00:42:12hook of the leg,

00:42:13to end.

00:42:14Triple H is just

00:42:15so smart,

00:42:16and you never know

00:42:17how obvious

00:42:18what he's doing tonight.

00:42:19Attacking the head

00:42:20and trying to get

00:42:21to Ric Flair.

00:42:22Well, as you said,

00:42:23so much of the blood

00:42:24has rushed to Ric Flair's head.

00:42:25It's actually starting

00:42:26to come out of his head.

00:42:27I think Flair's

00:42:28definitely bleeding now.

00:42:29The bridge of his nose

00:42:30or something.

00:42:31And now look at the

00:42:32Nature Boy trying

00:42:33to pull himself up

00:42:34using Triple H.

00:42:35Flair just keeps coming,

00:42:36but the game can just

00:42:37keep dishing it out.

00:42:38They can take it as well.

00:42:39They can take it.

00:42:40I think Ric Flair

00:42:41is just chomping

00:42:42out of Flair.

00:42:43Flair is just

00:42:44chomping

00:42:45out of Flair.

00:42:47Out of habit

00:42:48and instinct

00:42:49rather than really knowing

00:42:50what he's doing in there.

00:42:51Still a hell of a weapon

00:42:52to have.

00:42:53That's true.

00:42:54Well placed

00:42:55swinging neckbreaker

00:42:56by The Game.

00:42:57Coach,

00:42:58I hope you don't think

00:42:59that Flair ever

00:43:00for one minute

00:43:01doesn't know

00:43:02what he's doing

00:43:03when he's inside the ring.

00:43:04I just don't think

00:43:05his head is right right now.

00:43:06I think he's taking

00:43:07so much damage

00:43:08in this match

00:43:09from The Game

00:43:10that he is out there

00:43:11on instinct.

00:43:12It's nothing

00:43:13that Nature Boy

00:43:14hasn't experienced before.

00:43:15I love this.

00:43:17He's just taking

00:43:18some time to

00:43:19show the respect

00:43:20that the Nature Boy deserves.

00:43:21No, he's not

00:43:22showing respect.

00:43:23He's certainly

00:43:24mocking Ric Flair.

00:43:25Now,

00:43:26what is this?

00:43:27He's going to attempt

00:43:28to figure forward.

00:43:29Oh!

00:43:30To injury

00:43:31but the Nature Boy

00:43:32certainly saw it coming.

00:43:33Attempt

00:43:34to Ric Flair.

00:43:35Whoa, look at this now.

00:43:36Look at this.

00:43:37Oh, wait a second.

00:43:38Schoolboy

00:43:39robot.

00:43:40Two count only.

00:43:45Oh!

00:43:47Oh!

00:43:48Flair continues

00:43:49to go back

00:43:50and still say

00:43:51and dance with

00:43:52Oh!

00:43:53Who brung you?

00:43:54This is what made Flair

00:43:55what he is today.

00:43:56Those patented chops

00:43:57and rights and lefts.

00:43:58Just unloading

00:43:59on The Game.

00:44:02Now guys,

00:44:03I don't want to look ahead

00:44:04but just think about it.

00:44:05The battle that these two men

00:44:06are putting themselves through.

00:44:07They win this first

00:44:08it's just the first round.

00:44:09That's how difficult

00:44:10this tournament is.

00:44:13Oh, you're right.

00:44:15Someone taking a toll

00:44:16on whoever wins this thing.

00:44:17Oh!

00:44:18Foot in the face!

00:44:19Foot to the face

00:44:20of The Game

00:44:21who's on spaghetti legs.

00:44:27Still up but barely.

00:44:30Classic chop block.

00:44:31That would be illegal

00:44:32in the Super Bowl

00:44:33but it's textbook

00:44:34Nature Boy Ric Flair.

00:44:38Coach,

00:44:39how are you feeling now?

00:44:40Can you see into the future,

00:44:41Coach?

00:44:42Do you know what's coming?

00:44:43Do you know what's coming?

00:44:44Hey, come on,

00:44:45just concentrate.

00:44:46That's what I'm trying to do.

00:44:47Can Ric Flair do it?

00:44:48Oh my God!

00:44:49Can The Nature Boy

00:44:50do it one more time?

00:44:51Up top he goes!

00:44:53Foot to the eye

00:44:54by The Nature Boy!

00:44:56Bombs away!

00:44:57Forearm between

00:44:58the eyes of The Game!

00:45:00Come on!

00:45:01Two!

00:45:02Give me it!

00:45:03Oh!

00:45:06Come on, Nate,

00:45:07you gotta suck it up!

00:45:08Figure four!

00:45:09The Nature Boy was

00:45:10inches away from moving

00:45:11on this tournament.

00:45:12Flair is giving Triple H

00:45:13everything he has

00:45:14except for this.

00:45:15Well, that's it.

00:45:16Don't give him

00:45:17any time to rest.

00:45:18That's what you gotta do.

00:45:19He got it!

00:45:20He's got it!

00:45:21He's got it!

00:45:22The figure four leg lock

00:45:23is applied!

00:45:24The Nature Boy's got

00:45:25the figure four leg lock

00:45:26on The Game,

00:45:27Triple H!

00:45:28Triple H has somehow

00:45:29gotta get to the rope

00:45:30but he has smack dab

00:45:31in the middle of the ring!

00:45:33They're in the center

00:45:34of the ring!

00:45:35And Flair

00:45:36flips off Triple H!

00:45:38Triple H outweighs

00:45:39The Nature Boy

00:45:40by 30 pounds!

00:45:41That's not enough

00:45:42to move them both

00:45:43towards the ropes!

00:45:45Triple H is fighting

00:45:46with everything he's got!

00:45:47Keep him in the middle, Nate!

00:45:48I can't!

00:45:49Keep him in the middle!

00:45:51Are their shoulders

00:45:52are down?

00:45:53Shoulders are down!

00:45:58The figure four

00:45:59is broken because

00:46:00Triple H reached

00:46:01the bottom rope!

00:46:02That just showed me

00:46:03the heart that Triple H has.

00:46:04I guarantee you

00:46:05he was in there

00:46:06thinking about

00:46:07the main event

00:46:08of WrestleMania.

00:46:09What it means to him!

00:46:10To the fight

00:46:11figure four!

00:46:12Still some serious

00:46:13damage done now!

00:46:14Ow! Ow!

00:46:15Oh, man!

00:46:16The ref just walked

00:46:17into a thumb to the eye

00:46:18which you have to

00:46:19Oh, baby!

00:46:20And maybe

00:46:21it wasn't intentional!

00:46:22We'll never know!

00:46:23It was intentional

00:46:24as was the low blow!

00:46:25Well, that's

00:46:26that's why this man

00:46:27is the dirtiest

00:46:28player in the game!

00:46:29The low blow

00:46:30was definitely

00:46:31intentional!

00:46:35But you know

00:46:36you can call it

00:46:37all you want

00:46:38but there's no

00:46:39Wait a minute!

00:46:40Wait a minute!

00:46:42Ric Flair planted

00:46:43just like that!

00:46:46And the game

00:46:47will move on!

00:46:50Here is your winner

00:46:52Triple H!

00:46:54You can throw

00:46:55all the dirty tricks

00:47:16the Nature Boy

00:47:17Ric Flair

00:47:18a little respect

00:47:19what a match!

00:47:20I'll give the

00:47:21Nature Boy the

00:47:22respect that he

00:47:23deserved!

00:47:24He took Triple H

00:47:25to the limit

00:47:26and at some point

00:47:27even looked like

00:47:28he would move on

00:47:29but the game

00:47:30caught the Nature Boy

00:47:31I tell you what

00:47:32Triple H took

00:47:33a lot of damage

00:47:34here tonight

00:47:35Well, Coach

00:47:36if you want to

00:47:37make the dirtiest play

00:47:38in the game

00:47:39try everything you could

00:47:40take a look at this

00:47:41what may have been

00:47:42what may have been

00:47:43an unintentional

00:47:44bump to the eye

00:47:45of the referee

00:47:46but this

00:47:47and this right here

00:47:48the pass is low

00:47:49low

00:47:50I thought that

00:47:51I thought that

00:47:52the Nature Boy

00:47:53had it

00:47:54but the game

00:47:55was that quick

00:47:56take a look at it

00:48:04out of nowhere

00:48:05looking quick

00:48:07but I'll say this

00:48:09you're going to hear

00:48:10Triple H

00:48:11grow too much about this

00:48:12because he knows

00:48:13that this is only

00:49:40Are you ready?

00:49:41Get ready to hang on to your seat.

00:49:43The road to WrestleMania tournament continues.

00:49:46Shawn Michaels, HBK, he's gonna have the battle of his life

00:49:50when he takes on The Big Show.

00:49:52And gentlemen, that's his next.

00:49:54We're back live in Hotlanta.

00:50:03The official theme song of WrestleMania is Big Time by Peter Gabriel.

00:50:07It's off his greatest hit CD.

00:50:09It's called Hits.

00:50:11It scores everywhere right now.

00:50:14I don't know yet, but it's coming.

00:50:15I swear it's coming.

00:50:16It's gonna be big time.

00:50:18It's WrestleMania, and the road started tonight.

00:50:24And from big time, we go to The Big Show.

00:50:29The following is a road to WrestleMania tournament round one match.

00:50:34Bigger for Michaels, making his way to the ring.

00:50:37Weighing in at 507 pounds and 7 feet tall, he is 107 pounds.

00:50:42The road to WrestleMania tournament round one match.

00:50:45Bigger for Michaels, making his way to the ring.

00:50:48Weighing in at 507 pounds and 7 feet tall,

00:50:53he is one half of the World Tag Team Champions, The Big Show.

00:50:59Well, we knew there were gonna be some big matches at this tournament.

00:51:02We didn't know they would be this big.

00:51:03Well, we already saw the other half of the World Tag Team Champions

00:51:06lose here tonight.

00:51:07Kane falling to the masterpiece.

00:51:11Is Big Show gonna suffer the same fate to the Heartbreak Kid?

00:51:15We're still gonna find out, boys.

00:51:187 feet tall, over 500 pounds, The Big Show has to be seen live to believe.

00:51:23And making his way to the Tag Team Champions,

00:51:28The Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels.

00:51:34And Shawn Michaels going to WrestleMania

00:51:38has been littered with roadblocks thanks to Mr. McMahon.

00:51:43Last week here on Monday Night Raw,

00:51:46we saw the WWE Chairman, Mr. McMahon,

00:51:49set up Shawn Michaels.

00:51:51I mean, Shawn Michaels was wide open.

00:51:53Look at this.

00:51:54Hit me, come on.

00:51:55One hand behind my back.

00:51:57Yeah, Vince McMahon beating Shawn Michaels, begging Shawn to hit him.

00:52:01Come on, hit me, Shawn.

00:52:02Yeah, so he can fire him and then sue him.

00:52:04Come on, Johnny, what do I gotta do?

00:52:06You know my needs.

00:52:07You're right.

00:52:08You know what I gotta do.

00:52:09It was a set up.

00:52:10Look from behind.

00:52:16And if you ask me, Shawn Michaels deserves it.

00:52:18What?

00:52:19Shawn Michaels should know at this point never to trust the Chairman.

00:52:23I don't think anybody asked you, actually.

00:52:25You're the same way nobody ever asked me.

00:52:27I just give you my opinion.

00:52:29Wait a minute.

00:52:30Speaking of no chance of the Chairman.

00:52:34Now what?

00:52:36It doesn't matter now what.

00:52:38When the man comes out, you shut up and you listen.

00:52:40Hey, everybody, look.

00:52:41It's Shawn Michaels.

00:52:42Hey.

00:52:43Wow, hey, Shawn.

00:52:44How you doing?

00:52:46By the way, Shawn, I just came out here to inform you that tonight,

00:52:49tonight is your lucky night, Shawn.

00:52:51It really is.

00:52:52And the reason it's your lucky night is because my son, Shane McMahon,

00:52:56is not here tonight.

00:52:58If he were here tonight, if Shane were here,

00:53:01he'd be coming down to that ring and kicking your butt

00:53:04just like he did last week.

00:53:08I was going to ask Shane to be here, but I changed my mind.

00:53:13By the way, Shawn, I've changed my mind about something else as well.

00:53:17You know, last week when you were pondering all the things that you might do

00:53:22and your dilemma with me, one of the things you stated was,

00:53:25you know, you might just want to walk out.

00:53:27I mean, walk out on your WWE contract with me.

00:53:30And then you aptly stated, yeah, I know, but if I walk out, Vince,

00:53:34you're going to sue me for breach and take every cent I'm worth.

00:53:38And you know what?

00:53:39You are right.

00:53:40But, you know, I've changed my mind.

00:53:43I'm going to let you walk out on your contract now.

00:53:47I really am.

00:53:48As a matter of fact, I'm going to insist that you walk out on your contract.

00:53:53What?

00:53:54Huh?

00:53:57Insist?

00:53:58Next week, in that very ring, we're going to have a Shawn Michaels retirement party.

00:54:09All you got to do is sign on the dotted line right next to my signature.

00:54:14I promise not to sue you.

00:54:16And then, quite frankly, then, Shawn, your career will be over.

00:54:22I mean, that's one of the things you were considering.

00:54:27And, by the way, let me just say this.

00:54:29Shut up!

00:54:39I don't know whether you're considering changing your mind, but I'm not going to allow it.

00:54:43As a matter of fact, your appearance next week at your own retirement party,

00:54:48that's not optional for you.

00:54:50It's mandatory.

00:54:53What?

00:54:55Oh, and just one other thing, and that is, since you're going to retire next week, Shawn...

00:55:01Uh-oh.

00:55:03You talk about lack of respect.

00:55:05Well, this is certainly not going to put the Chairman in any better mood, folks.

00:55:08They're referring to their own city.

00:55:10I can't get over it.

00:55:11They don't like living here in Atlanta either.

00:55:13But, in any event, since you're going to retire next week,

00:55:17since you're going to retire next week...

00:55:22You know what?

00:55:25What's the matter? You don't want Shawn to retire?

00:55:29Huh.

00:55:30Oh, you're going to retire next week because, listen, your appearance, it's not optional.

00:55:35Your appearance is definitely mandatory, Shawn.

00:55:39And, by the way, you're not going to be at WrestleMania, let's see,

00:55:44so you're not going to be in the main event since you're going to retire.

00:55:47So, therefore, you're not even going to be in the tournament.

00:55:50It's my duty to inform you that, tonight, you have been replaced.

00:55:55Oh, my gosh. Come on. Wait a minute.

00:55:59Oh-ho!

00:56:02Are you kidding me? Shawn Michaels has been replaced by...

00:56:05by Steve Benjamin!

00:56:07And Shawn Michaels is going to be forced to retire next week?

00:56:11I can't wait!

00:56:12What?

00:56:14Raw is back live.

00:56:15This is another road to the WrestleMania main event first round tournament.

00:56:18The Big Show taking on Shelton Benjamin, who has replaced Shawn Michaels.

00:56:22And you're talking about an opportunity falling right in your lap, an opportunity...

00:56:25Oh!

00:56:27...of a lifetime for Shelton Benjamin.

00:56:30Those Big Show chops are like getting cracked with an iron skillet.

00:56:34Yeah, but, guys, who wants to see...

00:56:36Okay, I'll be quiet for just a second.

00:56:38Oh, my God!

00:56:39Who wants to see Shawn? Nobody wants to see Shawn Michaels retire.

00:56:43Well, apparently, Mr. McMahon does, and that's all that matters around here.

00:56:46Everybody wants to see Shawn Michaels retire.

00:56:48Nobody wants to see HBK in the main event of WrestleMania.

00:56:51Hits!

00:56:52All right.

00:56:55When the Big Show says, shh,

00:56:57the jam-packed Phillips Arena here in Atlanta just quiets down.

00:57:01You know, it's great that Mr. McMahon decided to kick Shawn Michaels out of this tournament,

00:57:05since he's going to retire anyway.

00:57:06Give somebody else the huge break.

00:57:08Joey, you said everybody in this arena quiets down.

00:57:10If only we could get Big Mama to quiet down.

00:57:12You are miracles now, King.

00:57:14Look out.

00:57:15Watch it show!

00:57:17How do you combat a man who is 7 feet tall and 500 pounds, fans?

00:57:22I've said it before.

00:57:23You have got to see the Big Show live and in person to truly realize how huge he is.

00:57:29Hey, Styles, do you not remember...

00:57:32No!

00:57:33...that Shelton Benjamin just three weeks ago defeated the Big Show?

00:57:36Do you forget that victory?

00:57:38Was that a count-out victory when the Big Show went after Triple H?

00:57:41Details, details, but he still got the victory.

00:57:43I'm a details guy, coach.

00:57:45Oh, no.

00:57:46What is Big Show doing?

00:57:47I don't know if those wrestlers are going.

00:57:52There's no place for the Big Show to be up there.

00:57:54Look at Big Mama.

00:57:56Oh, my goodness!

00:57:58The throat of the Big Show snapped across the top rope, but he's still standing.

00:58:02You'll get him, Shelton.

00:58:04Shelton having to pull out all the stops to try to get some sort of advantage

00:58:07over the Big Show.

00:58:08Oh, it still didn't work.

00:58:12That might work.

00:58:13The Dragon Whip, but the Big Show is still on his feet.

00:58:16Whatever it takes.

00:58:17That's what Shelton Benjamin needs and is willing to do.

00:58:22And he's doing it now.

00:58:24Springboard Bulldog cover.

00:58:26One can only says referee Jack Tone.

00:58:28The Big Show is just so strong.

00:58:30And Shelton Benjamin is such an amazing athlete.

00:58:32Nobody else could do that.

00:58:35Shelton trying for a short neckbreaker there.

00:58:37He may have him.

00:58:40Shelton Benjamin gets launched.

00:58:42And the Big Show is up just like that.

00:58:44A huge kick out from the Big Show.

00:58:46And look at the astonishment on the face of Shelton Benjamin

00:58:48after everything he just did to the Big Show.

00:58:51And the Big Show still was able to kick out like that.

00:58:54There's even astonishment on the face of Big Mama.

00:58:56Give Shelton Benjamin credit.

00:58:57He just keeps coming at the Big Show.

00:58:59And that may not be a good thing for him.

00:59:01Big Mama may need some more oxygen if she watches much more of this match.

00:59:04Uh-oh.

00:59:05Oh, no.

00:59:06The Big Show looks agitated, gentlemen.

00:59:09Shelton may need oxygen.

00:59:10That'll take your breath away.

00:59:11500 pounds in the corner.

00:59:15The Big Show just ran through Shelton Benjamin and the referee.

00:59:20What is she doing?

00:59:22Oh, my.

00:59:24Mama licked over the Big Show.

00:59:27I don't know what Mama's thinking.

00:59:29I don't think she is thinking.

00:59:31At least she got the Big Show's attention.

00:59:32Well, Big Mama would do anything to protect her baby boy.

00:59:35She's putting the bad mouth on the Big Show.

00:59:38It's great that she loves her son, but...

00:59:40Oh, back down from anybody.

00:59:41Oh, what a shot!

00:59:43Gosh.

00:59:45Roundhouse kick caught the Big Show right above the ear.

00:59:49I've never seen the Big Show knocked out of the ring like that

00:59:52thanks to the distraction of Big Mama out there.

00:59:55Look at this.

00:59:57Uh-oh.

00:59:58Uh-oh.

01:00:00Shelton Benjamin launched himself at the Big Show and got caught.

01:00:04Unfortunately for Shelton, Big Show only slowed down for a minute.

01:00:08Look at this strength, guys.

01:00:09Look at the power of the Big Show.

01:00:11You leave my baby alone.

01:00:13Mama, don't do it.

01:00:15Uh-oh.

01:00:17Don't touch me.

01:00:19I said don't.

01:00:21Mama, don't touch the Big Show.

01:00:25It's one thing to yell at the Big Show.

01:00:27No, don't touch the Big Man.

01:00:29Guys.

01:00:32Shelton's mama doesn't look good.

01:00:34No, she shouldn't.

01:00:35She better sit back down in that wheelchair that she came out in.

01:00:38She looks a little peaked.

01:00:40Uh-oh.

01:00:41Wait a minute.

01:00:42Shelton, Shelton.

01:00:44Shelton.

01:00:46Mama's in trouble.

01:00:47Chokeslam on Shelton Benjamin.

01:00:49Two, three.

01:00:51The Big Show moves on to the tournament.

01:00:53Oh, my God.

01:00:54Did somebody get over there?

01:00:55Here is your winner, the Big Show.

01:00:58Does anybody even know this?

01:01:00I don't think anybody realizes they did it.

01:01:02Shelton doesn't know it.

01:01:04I think the Big Show just realized it.

01:01:06Yeah, yeah.

01:01:12I think Big Show's now realizing.

01:01:15The referee's calling for help again.

01:01:17Somebody needs to get down here.

01:01:19He's fainting.

01:01:20He's got the trainer out here.

01:01:24Big Mama is absolutely passed out.

01:01:28The Big Show is pretty intimidating.

01:01:31I'm not getting a ball.

01:01:36I got through at the end.

01:01:38I'm wondering if she's had possibly a heart attack.

01:01:43I don't know.

01:01:44It wasn't bad.

01:01:45It wasn't bad.

01:01:46It wasn't bad.

01:01:47It wasn't bad.

01:01:48It wasn't bad.

01:01:51Let's let the doctor do his job.

01:01:52Let's not wonder about anything.

01:01:59Get some oxygen under.

01:02:02Sheldon's in the ring.

01:02:03Sheldon is just now being told.

01:02:12Sheldon, somebody hold him.

01:02:14Sheldon, let him go.

01:02:15Let him go.

01:02:16What's wrong with him?

01:02:17I don't know.

01:02:18Big Mama.

01:02:19Let's get Big Mama.

01:02:23Fans, we're always back live.

01:02:24And during the commercial break,

01:02:26wwe.com and WWE fans watching at home

01:02:29saw Sheldon Benjamin's mother

01:02:32placed on a stretcher by EMTs,

01:02:35tended to by our trainer and our in-house doctor.

01:02:40You know, I thought and still hope

01:02:42that maybe she just fainted,

01:02:43but this looks a little more serious

01:02:45than somebody just fainting.

01:02:46But I hope it's...

01:02:48We certainly wish nothing but the best

01:02:50to Sheldon Benjamin's mother

01:02:51and Sheldon and the entire Benjamin family.

01:02:54And Sheldon, as you can see,

01:02:55is obviously very distraught

01:02:56at what has happened.

01:02:57As are we all.

01:02:59It's very sad.

01:03:00Ladies and gentlemen,

01:03:01I'm being joined now by Carlito.

01:03:03And Carlito, we're just minutes away

01:03:05from your Road to WrestleMania tournament match

01:03:07against Rob Van Dam.

01:03:10Now, RVD's probably going to have revenge on his mind.

01:03:12You've got to believe,

01:03:13after what you did to him

01:03:14on Carlito's Cabana.

01:03:16¿Todavía se está quejando de eso?

01:03:18¿A quién le importa eso?

01:03:19Eso fue hace tiempo.

01:03:20Que no sea tan llorón.

01:03:21Que no sea una nena.

01:03:23English...

01:03:24A lot of English fans.

01:03:26Baboso.

01:03:27Look, I'll just talk about

01:03:28Rob Van Dam trying to get even with Carlito.

01:03:30You know, that was months ago.

01:03:31What did I do?

01:03:32I spit out more in his face.

01:03:33All I did was teach him a little respect.

01:03:35He's the one that disrespected Carlito.

01:03:38He cheated Carlito at the Royal Rumble.

01:03:40Then he tried to attack Carlito last week.

01:03:42And he thinks

01:03:44that of all nights

01:03:45he's going to get even with Carlito tonight.

01:03:47I have a chance

01:03:48to go on to the main event

01:03:50at WrestleMania.

01:03:52Carlito belongs

01:03:54in the main event

01:03:55at WrestleMania.

01:03:56WrestleMania needs

01:03:58Carlito

01:03:59in the main event.

01:04:01And the fact is

01:04:03I have a chance to get to the main event

01:04:05and defeat Rob Van Dam in the process.

01:04:08That's cool.

01:04:09That's cool.

01:04:39World Heavyweight Championship!

01:04:43There must have been

01:04:44some sort

01:04:45of divine intervention

01:04:46at the Royal Rumble

01:04:47because there's no way

01:04:48you could have won that

01:04:49on your own.

01:04:50As a matter of fact

01:04:51seeing as

01:04:52Lightning can't possibly

01:04:53strike twice

01:04:54in the same spot

01:04:55I challenge you

01:04:56for your main event

01:04:57spot at WrestleMania.

01:05:01Ray, you're looking

01:05:02up towards the heavens

01:05:03like you're looking at Eddie.

01:05:04Let me tell you something, bro.

01:05:06Eddie ain't in heaven.

01:05:07Eddie's down there

01:05:09in hell!

01:05:14Good!

01:05:32Mysterio standing up

01:05:34for the name of his

01:05:35late friend Eddie Guerrero.

01:05:37The legend killer

01:05:38in control.

01:05:39And here comes Mysterio!

01:05:41You can feel the emotion

01:05:42pouring out of Ray Mysterio.

01:05:44Dial it up!

01:05:45619!

01:05:47Mark Henry!

01:05:48Watch out!

01:05:49And Kurt Angle!

01:05:50Oh, man!

01:05:52Oh, what the hell?

01:05:53Oh, that wasn't smart.

01:05:54Go get him, Kurt!

01:05:55Holy cow!

01:05:56Kurt's trying to hop!

01:05:57Kurt Angle

01:05:58high-tailing it

01:05:59after DeLorean

01:06:00through the crowd!

01:06:01Mark Henry

01:06:02looking after him!

01:06:03While Orton and Mysterio

01:06:05are left in the ring!

01:06:06Ray Mysterio

01:06:07second rope!

01:06:08Sunset flip!

01:06:09Oh, got Randy Orton!

01:06:10He's got Orton!

01:06:11Got him!

01:06:12Randy Orton

01:06:13got Mysterio!

01:06:17You see, Ray?

01:06:18You can't beat me!

01:06:20You have about

01:06:21as much a chance

01:06:23winning that

01:06:24world title match

01:06:25at WrestleMania

01:06:26as Eddie Guerrero does

01:06:28coming back to life.

01:06:31You want to challenge me

01:06:33for my WrestleMania

01:06:35title shot?

01:06:36I'll be half

01:06:37of Eddie Guerrero!

01:06:39You're on, Randy!

01:06:46I spit in the face

01:06:47of people

01:06:48who don't want to be cool.

01:06:51Well,

01:06:52things certainly heat up

01:06:54but

01:07:32The Masterpiece

01:07:33Chris Masters

01:07:34moved on over Kane

01:07:35holding the rope.

01:07:36Triple H

01:07:39over Ric Flair

01:07:40and The Big Show

01:07:41defeated Shelton Bedroom

01:07:42with a chokeslam.

01:07:43Yeah, you gotta go

01:07:44after the small details.

01:07:45It doesn't matter.

01:07:46They all three moved on,

01:07:47but you look at the

01:07:48match-ups that could be

01:07:49possible for next week.

01:07:50Oh, man!

01:07:51It's not gonna be easy!

01:07:52Getting to the main event

01:07:53of WrestleMania, guys.

01:07:54And making his way

01:07:55to the ring

01:07:56from Battle Peak, Michigan!

01:07:57Weighing in at

01:07:58220 pounds

01:07:59Rob Van Dam!

01:08:02Coach, I took your advice

01:08:03earlier.

01:08:04When I was on

01:08:05wwe.com, I voted

01:08:06not with my heart,

01:08:07but with my hand.

01:08:08And I can just tell you

01:08:09that the man I voted for

01:08:10is still alive

01:08:11in this tournament.

01:08:12Who'd you vote for?

01:08:13Second pick.

01:08:14Why don't we all go

01:08:15on the line right now

01:08:16and put our cards on the table?

01:08:17Who do you pick?

01:08:18I already said

01:08:19I'm picking Triple H.

01:08:20King?

01:08:21I voted for The Big Show.

01:08:22I'm going with Rob Van Dam.

01:08:24I'm going with Rob Van Dam.

01:08:25Rob Van Dam wants

01:08:26to beat Carlito

01:08:27who extended his rehab

01:08:28on his knee

01:08:29by an additional six months.

01:08:31Rob Van Dam wants

01:08:32a piece of Carlito.

01:08:33Rob Van Dam's been

01:08:34in action for a year

01:08:35and Rob Van Dam's

01:08:36a long time friend of mine.

01:08:37And what kind of a genius

01:08:38is Mr. McMahon

01:08:39when he puts these brackets

01:08:40together?

01:08:41The first round match-ups

01:08:42have been phenomenal.

01:08:43And I don't think

01:08:44has this match actually

01:08:45officially started yet?

01:08:47Not until they're in the ring,

01:08:48King.

01:08:49Wow.

01:08:50Didn't know that.

01:08:51Carlito's getting

01:08:52softened up

01:08:53prior to the match.

01:08:55Well, certainly when you

01:08:56get a year's worth

01:08:57of frustration.

01:08:58There's the bell.

01:08:59A year's worth of frustration.

01:09:00RBD has a lot

01:09:01to take out on Carlito.

01:09:03I mean, there's two

01:09:04factors at work here.

01:09:05One, Rob Van Dam

01:09:06may be a little rusty,

01:09:07although you wouldn't

01:09:08see it there.

01:09:09At the same time,

01:09:10he has had a year

01:09:11to sit home,

01:09:12sleep in his own bed,

01:09:13train, eat his own home,

01:09:14cook at a tremendous

01:09:15advantage.

01:09:16Hey, hey, hey.

01:09:17RBD is very rusty

01:09:18and Carlito is at the top

01:09:19of his game.

01:09:20Carlito has never been

01:09:21better than he is right now.

01:09:22Well, Joey, I'm going

01:09:23to have to agree with Coach.

01:09:24Sitting home,

01:09:25training, sleeping

01:09:26in your own bed.

01:09:27That's one thing,

01:09:28but it's nothing like

01:09:29being in that WWE ring

01:09:30every night in and night out.

01:09:32Keep your eye on

01:09:33Rob Van Dam.

01:09:36Don't let him do this.

01:09:38You can't stop him.

01:09:40Oh, my God.

01:09:41Corkscrew leg drop.

01:09:43One of these two men

01:09:44is going to move on

01:09:45to the next round.

01:09:46Will it be Carlito

01:09:47or will it be Rob Van Dam?

01:09:49The road to WrestleMania

01:09:50continues.

01:09:53Oh, man.

01:09:54Raw is back live.

01:09:55This is the final

01:09:56first round matchup

01:09:57in the Road to the

01:09:58WrestleMania main event

01:09:59tournament.

01:10:00Rob Van Dam,

01:10:01one on one with Carlito

01:10:02and during the break,

01:10:03Rob Van Dam

01:10:04damn near knocked

01:10:05himself out.

01:10:06Hey, look at this.

01:10:07This is called

01:10:08crashing and burning

01:10:09right here.

01:10:10Trying to nail Carlito

01:10:11all the way out

01:10:12on the top rope.

01:10:13Instead, face first

01:10:14into that retaining

01:10:15barrier out there.

01:10:16And even though

01:10:17RBD's been out for a year,

01:10:18he's still throwing

01:10:19Cox into the wind.

01:10:20That's his style.

01:10:21That's what gets RBD

01:10:22to where he wants to go.

01:10:23That's not where RBD

01:10:24wanted to go.

01:10:25That's what gets Carlito

01:10:26where he wants to go.

01:10:27And that's a

01:10:28cool, cool

01:10:29dunk kick.

01:10:30If you happen to be

01:10:31just tuning in for

01:10:32Raw, you're way late.

01:10:33But this is the first

01:10:34round tournament match.

01:10:40WrestleMania main event

01:10:41tournament.

01:10:42And at the beginning

01:10:43of the night,

01:10:44eight superstars

01:10:45have the opportunity

01:10:46now after this match

01:10:47will be down to four

01:10:48who will be able to

01:10:49main event at WrestleMania.

01:10:50What a huge,

01:10:51huge

01:10:52match.

01:10:53I mean,

01:10:54so far,

01:10:55three of his successful

01:10:56Triple H Big Show

01:10:57they'll meet next week.

01:10:58And then Chris Masters

01:10:59is waiting

01:11:00for the winner

01:11:01of this match.

01:11:02Again,

01:11:03winning this tournament

01:11:04is the same thing

01:11:05as winning the Royal Rumble.

01:11:06You get the golden ticket

01:11:07to go on to main event

01:11:08WrestleMania and

01:11:10WWE Championship.

01:11:11It changes lives.

01:11:12Changes lives

01:11:20Both of these competitors

01:11:21are two-time

01:11:22Intercontinental Champions.

01:11:23And both want to be

01:11:24WWE Champion.

01:11:25You know,

01:11:26Carlito put RVD

01:11:27out for a year.

01:11:28I think Carlito

01:11:29would love the fact

01:11:30that he would end

01:11:31RVD's chances

01:11:32of being in the main event.

01:11:33Carlito would love that.

01:11:34Well,

01:11:35as well,

01:11:36RVD would think,

01:11:37I think they would think

01:11:38he was

01:11:39in retribution,

01:11:40so to speak,

01:11:41if he were to stop

01:11:42Carlito's road

01:11:43to WrestleMania here.

01:11:44You know,

01:11:45King,

01:11:46a lot of people believe

01:11:47that Carlito deserves

01:11:48to be in the main event

01:11:49of WrestleMania.

01:11:50Kick to the knee

01:11:51of Carlito

01:11:52by Rob Van Dam.

01:11:53Well,

01:11:54Coach,

01:11:55I think a lot of people

01:11:56would think RVD

01:11:57deserves to be

01:11:58in the main event.

01:11:59First true leg drop.

01:12:00Keep your eye on Van Dam.

01:12:01Here he comes.

01:12:11Van Dam

01:12:15Did you see the cover

01:12:17putting himself

01:12:18between Carlito

01:12:19and the ropes

01:12:20just in case?

01:12:21Yeah,

01:12:22but what about Carlito

01:12:23taking all of that

01:12:24and still being able

01:12:25to kick out?

01:12:26That's how great

01:12:27Carlito has become

01:12:28at such a young age.

01:12:29Look at this.

01:12:30The split leg

01:12:31and moves off.

01:12:32Carlito gets

01:12:33the knees up.

01:12:34And did I mention

01:12:35smart too?

01:12:36And that's why

01:12:37they call him

01:12:38Tiger Tiger.

01:12:39There it is.

01:12:40No.

01:12:41That was close.

01:12:42Carlito can't believe

01:12:43that he didn't win

01:12:44with a handful of tights.

01:12:45Look at that.

01:12:46Beautiful body scissors

01:12:47to it.

01:12:48He's on point.

01:12:49I think he shook off

01:12:50all the ring rust

01:12:51in the Royal Rumble.

01:12:52Didn't he eliminate

01:12:53Carlito at the Royal Rumble?

01:12:54Yes, he did.

01:12:55You had to point that out,

01:12:56didn't you?

01:12:57I'm a details man, Coach.

01:12:58Look at that.

01:12:59Oh, wow.

01:13:00Double springboard

01:13:01into a somersault

01:13:02sent on by Carlito.

01:13:03Where the hell

01:13:04did he uncork that?

01:13:05I have never seen

01:13:06this move before.

01:13:07This could be all that

01:13:08will press to it.

01:13:09Oh.

01:13:10Oh, these two

01:13:11young men

01:13:12really want to be

01:13:13in the main event

01:13:14at WrestleMania.

01:13:15How did R.E.B.

01:13:16kick out of that?

01:13:17How did Carlito

01:13:18do that?

01:13:19What a fantastic

01:13:20match.

01:13:21Watch out here.

01:13:33by Carlito.

01:13:34Now, Carlito,

01:13:35get up and cover R.B.D.

01:13:36This is your chance.

01:13:37Rob Van Dam

01:13:38barely moving.

01:13:39Come on, Carlito.

01:13:40This is his chance.

01:13:41Carlito has got

01:13:42to capitalize now

01:13:43if he wants to move

01:13:44on to the next round.

01:13:45With smiling

01:13:46Rob Van Dam

01:13:47no hook of the leg.

01:13:48Oh.

01:13:49Can we see that

01:13:50one more time?

01:13:51What do you call it?

01:13:52The backcracker?

01:13:53The backcracker.

01:13:54It's not the official name

01:13:55but it is what it is.

01:13:56Man, if R.B.D.

01:13:57wasn't so athletic

01:13:58and impendable

01:13:59for lack of a better term

01:14:00this one would be over.

01:14:01Hey, hey, hey.

01:14:02What's Carlito doing?

01:14:03Oh!

01:14:04Oh, my God.

01:14:05Carlito,

01:14:06what are you doing?

01:14:07It's obvious

01:14:08what he's doing.

01:14:09You get disqualified

01:14:10if he uses it.

01:14:11He may just get himself

01:14:12disqualified.

01:14:13Let's see what's

01:14:14Carlito thinking.

01:14:15Carlito obviously

01:14:16is not thinking.

01:14:17Oh!

01:14:18Oh!

01:14:19Van Daminator

01:14:20finds the mark

01:14:21and it was Carlito

01:14:22who brought the steel chair

01:14:23to the ring

01:14:24so Rob Van Dam

01:14:25cannot be disqualified.

01:14:26Up top he goes.

01:14:27Wait a minute, wait a minute.

01:14:28He's too far away.

01:14:29Rob!

01:14:30No, he's not.

01:14:31Watch that

01:14:32frog splash.

01:14:33Can Van Dam

01:14:34make the cover

01:14:35and move on

01:14:36to the tournament?

01:14:37He's on top.

01:14:38He hooked the leg.

01:14:39It's two.

01:14:40R.B.D. moves on.

01:14:43Here is your winner

01:14:45Rob

01:14:46Van

01:14:47Dam.

01:14:48Guys, I gotta say

01:14:49that I'm a huge Carlito fan

01:14:51but Carlito

01:14:52copped himself

01:14:53that match

01:14:54by bringing that chair in.

01:14:55Yes, he did.

01:14:56What was he thinking?

01:14:57Obviously, he wasn't

01:14:58thinking at that point.

01:14:59R.B.D.

01:15:00taking advantage.

01:15:03Many people feel

01:15:04Rob Van Dam

01:15:05is the greatest athlete

01:15:06ever to be

01:15:07WWE champion.

01:15:08This may be his year.

01:15:09He is one step closer.

01:15:11He's taken a big step

01:15:12on the road

01:15:13to the WrestleMania main event.

01:15:15I know one thing.

01:15:16I was certainly impressed.

01:15:17Very impressive win.

01:15:18Look at Carlito

01:15:19taking a page out of

01:15:20R.B.D.'s book.

01:15:21Beautiful move there.

01:15:22The springboard

01:15:23into the somersault

01:15:24sent off.

01:15:25This is where Carlito

01:15:26took leave of his sentence.

01:15:27Why the chair?

01:15:28Look at that.

01:15:29It all went through

01:15:30Carlito's head

01:15:31at just that moment.

01:15:32Yeah, the chair.

01:15:33Damn right, King.

01:15:34Any ring wrestler

01:15:35in R.B.D.

01:15:36did have.

01:15:37Take a look at that.

01:15:38Beautiful, beautiful

01:16:39what a great story

01:16:40Rob Van Dam

01:16:41is going to tell us.

01:16:42But that's not

01:16:43what's going to happen, though.

01:16:44Well, it very well

01:16:45could happen, guys.

01:16:46It very well could happen.

01:16:47We're going to find out

01:16:49Next week's going to be huge.

01:16:50Next week's going to be huge.

01:16:51Are you kidding me?

01:16:52The semifinal matches

01:16:53that we have

01:16:54are going to be amazing.

01:16:55The first one up,

01:16:56oh, baby,

01:16:57Triple H

01:16:58and the 500-pound

01:16:59Big Show.

01:17:00They have serious issues.

01:17:01You could say

01:17:02big-time issues.

01:17:03That's the first

01:17:04semifinal.

01:17:05It's going to be live

01:17:06Thursday night next week.

01:17:07It will air on Raw.

01:17:08And once that match

01:17:09happens,

01:17:10we get to witness

01:17:11this one.

01:17:12Chris Masters,

01:17:13the masterpiece

01:17:14with the Master Lock

01:17:15taking on RVD,

01:17:16Rob Van Dam,

01:17:18very impressive

01:17:19victory here tonight.

01:17:20These two young studs

01:17:21are going to really

01:17:22get it on.

01:17:23I can't wait to see that.

01:17:24Thursday night,

01:17:25as we said.

01:17:26And then,

01:17:27Mr. McMahon

01:17:28has mandated

01:17:29that Shawn Michaels

01:17:30attend his own

01:17:31mandatory retirement party.

01:17:32Yes, I know I said

01:17:33mandate,

01:17:34mandatory twice

01:17:35because I can't believe it.

01:17:36I'm just wondering,

01:17:37do we have to wear

01:17:39tuxedos tonight?

01:17:42Check it out.

01:17:43John Cena,

01:17:44Maria versus

01:17:45Edge and Lita.

01:17:46The winner

01:17:47is going to get

01:17:48to name the referee

01:17:49for next week's

01:17:50WWE title match.

01:17:53You think you know me.

01:18:03The following is a

01:18:04mishmash duo

01:18:05kicking for a white ball.

01:18:06Introducing first,

01:18:07the team of

01:18:08Lita and Edge.

01:18:15Let's take a look

01:18:16at why this match

01:18:17was made by

01:18:18Mr. McMahon

01:18:19earlier tonight.

01:18:20It was Lita

01:18:22taking some liberties

01:18:23with Maria

01:18:24who really did

01:18:25nothing wrong

01:18:26but conducting

01:18:27an interview.

01:18:28Yeah, Lita took it

01:18:29upon herself.

01:18:30She told Edge,

01:18:31here, let me take

01:18:32care of this.

01:18:33She slapped

01:18:34poor Maria

01:18:36and almost pulled

01:18:37her hair out.

01:18:38I don't know what

01:18:39you guys call

01:18:40did nothing.

01:18:41Maria laughed at Edge.

01:18:42Maria laughed at Lita.

01:18:43She didn't laugh

01:18:44at anybody.

01:18:45She didn't laugh.

01:18:46She introduced

01:18:47Edge as the

01:18:48former WWE champion

01:18:49which is correct

01:18:50and she meant

01:18:51no disrespect.

01:18:52She even said

01:18:53he should be proud

01:18:54of being,

01:18:55I mean,

01:18:56one of only a few

01:18:57men who have been

01:18:58WWE champion.

01:18:59You guys can say

01:19:00what you want

01:19:01but Mr. McMahon

01:19:02obviously has seen

01:19:03things Edge's way

01:19:04There's a lot at stake

01:19:05in this match.

01:19:06The winner

01:19:07will get to name

01:19:08the special guest referee

01:19:09in the WWE title match

01:19:10next week on RAW

01:19:11between Edge

01:19:12and John Cena.

01:19:13And that is a huge

01:19:14stipulation.

01:19:15That is a huge

01:19:16spoil that will go

01:19:17to the victor

01:19:18of this matchup.

01:19:35And making their way

01:19:36to the ring

01:19:37the team of

01:19:38Maria

01:19:39and the

01:19:40WWE champion

01:19:42John

01:19:43Cena.

01:19:46The champ is here.

01:19:48Obviously that

01:19:49kiss

01:19:50has motivated

01:19:51Maria

01:19:52because she looks

01:19:53confident.

01:19:54Wow.

01:19:55She looks really

01:19:56confident.

01:19:57He's fired up.

01:19:58What a deafening

01:19:59ovation in here

01:20:00for the WWE champion

01:20:01John Cena.

01:20:02We are jam-packed

01:20:03with fans here

01:20:04in Atlanta.

01:20:08You remember

01:20:09earlier tonight

01:20:10when Edge was

01:20:11about to spear

01:20:12Maria

01:20:13and he had her

01:20:14set up

01:20:15and then

01:20:16thank goodness

01:20:17John Cena

01:20:18the champ arrives.

01:20:19Well you can

01:20:20save Maria once

01:20:21but the chances

01:20:22of saving her a

01:20:23second time

01:20:24are not that good.

01:20:31Don't forget

01:20:32that next week

01:20:33RAW will be live

01:20:34in Greensboro,

01:20:35North Carolina

01:20:36Monday night.

01:20:44Very special night.

01:20:45It will air

01:20:46Thursday night

01:20:47on the USA Network.

01:20:50Once again

01:20:51Edge tries to get

01:20:52the upper hand

01:20:53by attacking

01:20:54from behind

01:20:55but it didn't work.

01:20:57Oh man.

01:20:59Oh baby.

01:21:00John Cena

01:21:01all over Edge

01:21:02not giving the former

01:21:03WWE champion

01:21:04any breathing room.

01:21:05Beautiful fisherman

01:21:06suplex cover

01:21:07two count only

01:21:08says referee Mike Yoder.

01:21:09And you know what

01:21:10if John Cena can take

01:21:11care of business

01:21:12here with Edge

01:21:13Maria might not have

01:21:14to get in the match.

01:21:15John Cena hit that

01:21:16steel ring post

01:21:17that hard.

01:21:18What were you

01:21:19saying about that?

01:21:20Yeah,

01:21:21Cena and Maria

01:21:22their team plan

01:21:23is to keep Maria

01:21:24out of the ring

01:21:26Wait, wait, wait.

01:21:27Come on.

01:21:28Can he do that?

01:21:29Yes, he can.

01:21:30A tag is a tag.

01:21:31Maria just tagged

01:21:32herself in.

01:21:33I told you she was confident.

01:21:34She didn't tag herself in.

01:21:35Edge tagged her in.

01:21:36And Edge just planted

01:21:37John Cena.

01:21:39And referee Mike Yoder

01:21:40is telling Maria

01:21:41you need to get

01:21:42into the match.

01:21:43Well, look out.

01:21:46Well, it's very obvious

01:21:47what the game plan

01:21:48of Edge and Lita was

01:21:49to isolate John Cena

01:21:50get him out of the way

01:21:51and then have their way

01:21:52with Maria

01:21:53because again

01:21:54the special guest referee

01:21:55for next week's

01:21:56WWE Championship

01:21:57matchup.

01:22:00A little extra

01:22:01added insurance.

01:22:03WWE Champion

01:22:04John Cena is down.

01:22:05And Edge has already

01:22:06said that he wants

01:22:07Lita.

01:22:08Come on, come on.

01:22:09Maria, get into the match.

01:22:10You wanted to laugh.

01:22:11You wanted to play ha-ha.

01:22:12Now get in there

01:22:13and do what you are

01:22:14in the match to do

01:22:15and that's compete.

01:22:16Coach, do you ever

01:22:17exercise your right

01:22:18to remain silent?

01:22:19She didn't laugh.

01:22:20She didn't make fun

01:22:21of anybody.

01:22:22Look at this.

01:22:23So is that.

01:22:25Lita is just

01:22:26speeding things along.

01:22:27Lita is a former

01:22:28WWE Women's Champion.

01:22:29Maria is simply

01:22:30not in her league

01:22:31when it comes to wrestling.

01:22:32This is a mismatch.

01:22:34The only thing good

01:22:35about Maria being

01:22:36in the ring right now

01:22:37is her outfit.

01:22:38That's it.

01:22:39Because Lita

01:22:40is going to show her

01:22:41what really being

01:22:42a competitor is all about.

01:22:43Well, Lita is trying

01:22:44to add some insult

01:22:45to injury here.

01:22:46Oh, look at her.

01:22:47Maria likes that.

01:22:48Yeah, yeah.

01:22:49Come on, Coach.

01:22:50Yeah, Maria is in

01:22:51a bad way right now.

01:22:52She is just no match

01:22:53for Lita.

01:22:54All the body weight

01:22:55of Lita now

01:22:56and Edge mocking Maria.

01:22:57Look at her face.

01:22:58It's just strangling

01:22:59on that bottom rope.

01:23:00Look at that.

01:23:01You know, one thing

01:23:02you got to say about him,

01:23:03he always has a good time.

01:23:04Always has a good time.

01:23:05Oh, look out.

01:23:06Oh, no.

01:23:07At somebody else's expense,

01:23:08but that's details again.

01:23:10This is going to be great.

01:23:11Lita just warming up

01:23:12to be the special guest

01:23:13referee in that

01:23:14WWE title match

01:23:15next week on Raw.

01:23:16Oh, wouldn't that be

01:23:17just peachy?

01:23:18Lita, the special referee.

01:23:22For her boyfriend's

01:23:23big championship match.

01:23:24Oh, my God.

01:23:25What a knee.

01:23:28Lita understands

01:23:29the importance

01:23:30and the integrity

01:23:31of the championship.

01:23:32Textbook side rush

01:23:33and leg sweep by Lita.

01:23:37Yeah, I'm sure she loves

01:23:38the big celebrations

01:23:39that she and Edge have

01:23:40whenever he wins

01:23:41the championship.

01:23:42You want to talk

01:23:43about celebration?

01:23:44You got to talk about

01:23:45retirement celebrations.

01:23:46Not only do we have

01:23:47that huge match next week,

01:23:48but Shawn Michaels

01:23:49has got him.

01:23:50Lita went for the spear

01:23:51and missed.

01:23:52And there's a tag on Cena.

01:23:53The champ is back.

01:24:00Weight impact

01:24:01on the shoulder block.

01:24:04Well, things have

01:24:05certainly gone south

01:24:06for Edge and Lita

01:24:07right now.

01:24:09Alright, Joey.

01:24:10You can call this.

01:24:11I call it this week.

01:24:12You can't see me.

01:24:16Now, wait a minute.

01:24:17What's Lita doing here?

01:24:18I don't know, but

01:24:19John Cena sees Lita.

01:24:21And once again,

01:24:22Lita proved to be

01:24:23the distraction.

01:24:24And once again,

01:24:25John Cena proves

01:24:26that he isn't that smart.

01:24:27Go ahead.

01:24:29And Lita is

01:24:30the legal competitor.

01:24:32Lita caught one on Edge.

01:24:33John Cena with the sidestep.

01:24:37Wait a second.

01:24:38It just hit her.

01:24:41Lita is the legal person.

01:24:44Don't do it, Cena.

01:24:45You can't put your hands

01:24:46on her.

01:24:47He can't put his

01:24:48hands on her.

01:24:51It's a mixed tag.

01:24:52It's not an intergender match.

01:24:54What is Lita?

01:24:55Is she begging?

01:24:56Pleading?

01:24:57Or what is she saying?

01:24:58Oh, my gosh.

01:24:59She's flashing.

01:25:00Oh, yeah.

01:25:02And John Cena

01:25:03with another sidestep.

01:25:04Lita gets speared.

01:25:06Oh, my.

01:25:08Edge thrown to the outside.

01:25:09And Maria just

01:25:10blind tagged herself in.

01:25:12Oh, wait.

01:25:13She's caught Lita.

01:25:14Look at this.

01:25:18Maria.

01:25:19And the winner is

01:25:20Maria and

01:25:21John

01:25:22Cena.

01:25:24Hold up.

01:25:25Look at that.

01:25:26Look at the look

01:25:27on John Cena's face.

01:25:28How proud is

01:25:29John Cena of

01:25:30Maria right now?

01:25:31I think John Cena

01:25:32can believe it

01:25:33least of all.

01:25:35kidding?

01:25:36No, no.
