Transcript

00:00All the way off the ringside, I mean, he landed right in front of The R9.

00:03And look at the insensitivity in the eyes of The Rock, here tonight on SmackDown.

00:08All business, furious about what The Undertaker did to him on Raw Monday.

00:14You'd be mad too if you got hit by the people's pipe.

00:17Well, that lead pipe, that is.

00:19Undertaker, you wanna hit The Rock in the head with a steel pipe?

00:26You wanna beat some respect into The Rock?

00:30Well, let The Rock show you what kind of respect he has for you.

00:32Undertaker, The Rock knows you're here tonight.

00:35He knows you didn't have a match against Maven tonight, but

00:37The Rock says that has to wait.

00:39Because right now, Undertaker, The Rock wants you to come right up.

00:41Can you dig it, sucka?

00:43Wait a minute.

00:44The Rock was calling out The Undertaker like, this is fucker pin kick.

00:49What the hell does he want?

00:51What business does he have with The Rock?

00:53I know that's what he said, sucka, but I don't know why he's out here.

00:56Big Sucka!

01:00Now he's got something on his mind.

01:02Look at that, look at that look on his face.

01:03This is a carbon copy of what happened on Raw Monday night when Booker T

01:06interrupted Triple H.

01:08You know something, Rock?

01:17There's one thing I can't stand, and

01:20that's a sucker with a big ego and a big head like yours.

01:27Uh-oh, he's talking.

01:29You see, I'm the one who beat Triple H last week.

01:35I'm the one who kicked his ass last Monday night.

01:40Right, sucker.

01:43And I'm the one that's gonna make an example out of you.

01:50An example?

01:50Now can you dig that, sucker?

01:54Uh-oh, I don't know of anybody that's ever made an example out of The Rock.

01:59The Rock can dig it, The Rock can dig it, cuz see, you see Booker T?

02:05Goes down like this.

02:06You see, you wanna come out and make an example out of The Rock?

02:09The Rock saw you last week.

02:10You wanna be in the movie so bad?

02:12Well, The Rock will tell you this, Booker T, once you come on down, and

02:15you and The Rock, we can make a movie right here live on SmackDown!

02:18Uh-oh, and here comes Booker T!

02:20The Rock's not done, The Rock's not done!

02:22No, no, no, no, no, no, Booker T, The Rock's not done.

02:25You wanna be a leading man?

02:26We got the lights, we got the cameras, we got the action.

02:29You come on in.

02:30The name of the movie is gonna be The Rock whooping your candy a** all over LA!

02:35And here comes Booker T in one away to kick off SmackDown!

02:38The Rock and Booker T, you ain't even a referee out here, T!

02:42All the cameras, action, here we go!

02:44Impromptu matchup, Rock's off the ropes, ducks underneath him.

02:48Booker T in the air, knocking Booker T down.

02:52Hey, I think we need a referee out here.

02:54I think we do, too.

02:55Impromptu matchup to kick off SmackDown, and a kick to the face by Booker T.

03:02Well, Booker T wanted to make a name for himself, and

03:04well, here comes the official king.

03:06All right, let's get in there, sucka.

03:07Referee Timmy White into this matchup, and we're underway.

03:10Booker T and The Rock one on one to kick off SmackDown.

03:15It's gonna be a wild night.

03:16You heard The Rock make mention to us, if you believe it, Maven King.

03:19Maven has challenged The Undertaker to a hard core championship match right here

03:24tonight on SmackDown.

03:25I can't question Maven's guts, King, but

03:28he's had enough of the attacks by The Undertaker.

03:31He wants to meet The Taker tonight.

03:33And Booker T and The Rock to The Rock reversing the tables.

03:38And those people's chomps echoing throughout the Staples Center.

03:42Booker T, a kick to the face of The Rock.

03:46And I can't imagine The Rock wanting Undertaker out here.

03:49He's getting all he wants from Booker T.

03:51Well, The Rock and The Undertaker will meet in ten days at No Way Out.

03:54The Rock issuing the challenge on Raw Monday.

03:57But Booker T, looking to make a name for himself.

04:00Looking to take out The Rock here in Hollywood tonight.

04:02He's making a name for himself.

04:06Booker T, you don't like the name Booker T?

04:08Look out, Booker T working on The Rock.

04:11The Rock, look out, Booker T across the ring.

04:14The Rock telegraphed that Booker T taking advantage.

04:17And Booker T comes over the top rope by The Rock.

04:21I'll tell you, King, Monday night, there's a huge announcement by Mr.

04:26McMahon that the arrival of the NWO is imminent.

04:29Hogan, Nash, and Hall, the NWO will be here in ten days at No Way Out.

04:36Wow, what a shot by Booker T.

04:39I think right now, The Rock needs an antidote to Booker T.

04:43And The Rock struggling to escape Booker T, getting hit with The Rock outside

04:48the ring as The People's Champ bounces off the barricade.

04:52Nearly 18,000 jamming the Staples Center here in Los Angeles.

04:56And what a way to kick off SmackDown on UPN.

04:59I think there's a bigger crowd than the last we saw here.

05:02I'll tell you, The Rock came out, making some kills.

05:05He'll never hurt the basin like that.

05:09And another shot by Booker T to The Rock.

05:11This fight started with The Rock calling out The Undertaker, but

05:14it was Booker T who came out instead.

05:16Booker T, Booker T, Booker T, Booker T, Booker T, Booker T, Booker T, Booker T.

05:18I think this fight started with the fact that he's pregnant.

05:22Stephanie McMahon Helmsley is pregnant.

05:25I can't wait to hear more about that tonight.

05:28Booker T missed with a big kick by Booker T, and Booker T with a DDT.

05:34And we will hear a little bit more tonight about the Stephanie McMahon Helmsley

05:38pregnancy from Triple H and Stephanie earlier today.

05:41King meeting with a doctor here at the Staples Center.

05:43Man, you think it could be twins or something like that?

05:47Can you imagine?

05:47What a blessing.

05:48You gotta be happy for him, Michael.

05:49Two little games.

05:50I'm happy for Triple H, I mean, it's great, he's gonna be a dad.

05:57Like JR said on Raw Monday night, perhaps his pregnancy with Stephanie

06:00could change her life around a little bit.

06:02And look at this, Booker T to his feet.

06:03The Rock as well.

06:05The Rock with a right hand to Booker T.

06:07Discapacity crowd starting to come alive at the Staples Center.

06:10The Rock laying the smack down to Booker T.

06:15This is a top two matchup.

06:16Starting this off by a smack down.

06:18Misses with a right hand, and a shot by The Rock.

06:20Booker T off the ropes, and what a throw by The Rock.

06:27Quickly, The Rock into the cover, hook to the leg.

06:29There's one, there's two, and Booker T just kicks out.

06:33Also here tonight, a big pose down.

06:36Billy and Chuck against Stacey and Corey, a pose down on SmackDown.

06:40That's what I'm happy about.

06:41I think I'm gonna get to see that, a puppy pose down tonight.

06:45What a shock, you're gonna emcee the pose down.

06:47I'm the king of skin, you know?

06:48Booker T with a scissor kick to the back of the head.

06:51And what a huge win this would be for Booker T.

06:55Come on, I call that, that's a sucker kick.

06:58You think we're gonna see the Hollywood version?

07:00I think we're gonna get the cameras rolling.

07:02This is a sucker beat the bell moment here.

07:05Come on, give me a Hollywood spin-a-rooney.

07:07Uh-oh, he's feeling it, he's seeing it.

07:10Here it is, look at that.

07:12There you go.

07:13Woo, man, that's a- Look at the athleticism.

07:16A little hip-hop, and there we go with the Pie Buster.

07:20The Rock causing the Pie Buster.

07:21Wait a minute, this is really movie material now.

07:25You're about to see the most exciting moment for

07:29entertainment today, people don't know.

07:31The elbow to the stomach by The Rock.

07:33Into the cover, hook of the leg.

07:36The Rock gets it, The Rock wins.

07:38The Rock is ready for The Undertaker.

07:51Ten days and no way out on pay-per-view.

07:54Something has to give The Rock and The Undertaker one-on-one.

08:00Well, you gotta admire Rooker T's courage.

08:04He's out here to challenge The Rock, but it just turned out to be a bad night.

08:08He's about to rewrite the ending to that full-on TV scene.

08:11What a scene in LA on SmackDown.
