00:00It's gonna be every man for himself in this over the top rope challenge.

00:05A Royal Rumble preview, if you will.

00:09Some huge, huge men, Kane and Batista in this matchup.

00:12But nobody's got an ego any bigger than Chris Jericho's.

00:15I'm telling you, he thinks he's nine feet tall in this match.

00:18Jericho interrupting Mr. McMahon earlier tonight.

00:21Can you believe that?

00:22I could not believe that, the audacity of Jericho.

00:24He's got some spauldings, let me tell you.

00:27And again, no pinfalls, no disqualifications in the Royal Rumble.

00:31The way you are eliminated is to be thrown over the top rope all the way to the floor.

00:35Just like this main event here live tonight on Raw.

00:38Look at this.

00:39Great agility by Jericho.

00:40And I can see a lot of Jericho on the apron did not go to the floor.

00:45Will the biggest men in this Royal Rumble have the advantage?

00:48Or will the quickest men have the advantage?

00:50Or will it go to the man that has the look of the draw?

00:54Certainly being number 30 gives you a leg up on winning the whole darn thing.

00:58And this match that we're watching right now, well, this will go a long way in

01:02letting us know who's gonna have the advantage.

01:04Is it gonna be the big men like Kane and Batista?

01:06Is it gonna be the guys with quickness, speed, and agility like Chris Jericho,

01:11Rob Van Damme?

01:12And you think about what this entire event this Sunday means to each and

01:16every superstar in the WWE.

01:18Championships decided this Sunday at the Royal Rumble.

01:22Main events from WrestleMania decided at the Royal Rumble this Sunday.

01:26And Batista trying to hustle up, trying to muscle up Kane.

01:29He's over 300 pounds himself.

01:32Look at the power of Batista.

01:34Batista, 318 pounds.

01:37He is a Raw monster.

01:39Look out, look at, Batista.

01:41Batista, Batista, and not make contact with Chris Jericho.

01:46Now Jericho's singling out the Big Red Machine in this every-man-for-himself environment.

01:5230 men in all, 15 from Raw, 15 from SmackDown, in the Rumble match Sunday.

01:57And Batista, right back in the fight, the winner of the Royal Rumble.

02:01And there can only be one winner will meet his champion, his brand's champion,

02:06in the main event at WrestleMania.

02:08Man.

02:09That's why the Royal Rumble is so huge.

02:12That's why everybody, SmackDown Superstars, Raw Superstars, they all wanna be in the Royal Rumble.

02:17They all wanna win that thing.

02:18It's about fame, it's about money, it's about prestige and honor.

02:22It's about building your legacy, being in the main event at WrestleMania.

02:26And the winner of the Royal Rumble match can do just that.

02:29I think Jericho's starting to go for a pin there on my band now.

02:33Sometimes when you get involved in these matches, at the heat of the moment,

02:36you forget exactly what you're in there to do.

02:38You may try to pin your opponent, but the only way you're gonna win this thing is

02:41throw your opponent over the top rope.

02:44Man, I'll tell you what, Mr. McMahon stirred things up.

02:46Exactly what he wants our general manager, Eric Bischoff, to do.

02:49Bischoff's got 30 days to make some big changes to not only just do a good show,

02:54but a great show, the clock is running on Bischoff.

02:57But he, Mr. McMahon comes back, puts the Dudleys in a main event level match

03:02against Regal and Storm this Sunday for the world tag titles.

03:05What a night this has been.

03:07Eric Bischoff will never forget this night as long as he lives,

03:10at least not for the next 30 days.

03:12What a shot by Van Damme from his left foot.

03:15Right hands by Van Damme, Jericho going downstairs.

03:19But what do you think JR, don't you think the big men have the advantage?

03:29Look at the strength, look at the power.

03:31I think there's nothing else than physics.

03:33I think you're right, the big men have the advantage.

03:35But a lot of it depends on where you are entered.

03:38If you're entered one or, well, Shawn Michaels is gonna be the first man in the World Rumble.

03:42The showstop, can he go close and close?

03:45Look at this, Kane blocking the rock, Chris Jericho, and cruisling him up.

03:50And Batista trying to come to Kane, knocked down by RVD, a chokeslam by Kane on Jericho.

03:57Might have been Kane, I'd have tried to get Jericho closer to the rope,

03:59just throwing him right up over that top rope.

04:02Nice double team by the oftentimes partners Kane and RVD.

04:06There'll be no partnerships, there'll be no cooperative efforts in the Royal Rumble.

04:10Well, now, sometimes, JR, it breaks down into a pairing like this.

04:14If there were just three individuals in the ring at one time, it's nice.

04:17It's in every, well, it's in two of their best interests to pair up, eliminate the one goal.

04:21But, Kane, when it comes down to nut cutting time, and two men are in the ring,

04:25they're gonna, it's every, it's winner take all.

04:28Well, I realize that.

04:29Yeah, when it gets right down to it, it is every man for itself.

04:32I don't think there'll be any friends in this match.

04:34Partners, you can throw those partnerships out the door.

04:37I don't care if it's brother versus brother, friend versus friend.

04:40It won't matter, Sunday in Boston.

04:42Nice shot by RVD.

04:44Hard shot on Jericho, and Van Dam, he put Van Dam with the brakes on, didn't go to the floor.

04:50He's still in this match, and Van Dam, a hard shot knocking down Chris Jericho.

04:58Man, this Royal Rumble, what a, I love the Royal Rumble.

05:01One of my favorite fans of, next to WrestleMania, to me it is the event.

05:06One, two, one.

05:07Powered by Batista, and man, what impact, Batista, that shoulder block,

05:11taking down the big red machine.

05:13That Royal Rumble, like Christmas, it only comes once a year, and it's gonna be huge on Sunday.

05:19I tell you what, if Batista draws the number in the mid-20s of the 30 men,

05:24you may be looking at the winner of the Royal Rumble.

05:26He can come in there, and start cleaning house, and picking bones.

05:30Batista is a raw monster.

05:32He may be in the main event at WrestleMania.

05:35Well, all he's gotta do is win this, and he don't have to worry about the mid-20s.

05:38He can be number three.

05:39Look out.

05:40King, the long blow by Jericho, perfectly legal.

05:45Again, the only way you can lose is being thrown over the top rope to the floor, just like that.

05:50And King is eliminated, the long blow, and then Batista.

05:55Well, Jericho trying to come back more Batista.

05:59He may have made the biggest mistake of the night there, Jericho.

06:01And there's every man for himself.

06:03Even a bigger mistake than interrupting Vince McMahon.

06:05The king of the world, talking loud enough to be heard in Winnipeg tonight.

06:09My God, a sit down power bomb.

06:13That'll take Jericho out of commission, but RBD with a shot, right to the face.

06:18What a second one, and RBD eliminates Batista.

06:22Maybe the big men don't have the advantage, they're both gone in this match.

06:26Remember the winner gets to pick his number, two to 30, and Batista getting back in the action.

06:33And Jericho eliminates Van Damme, Jericho wins it.

06:38Here is your winner, Chris Jericho.

06:41But what number will Jericho choose?

06:43I gotta believe that he's got any brain cells left after that matchup.

06:47He'll pick number 30, the last spot.

06:50I think we're about to find out.

06:54Are you gonna get any rest, or is he gonna have to make it?

06:56Oh, he's gotta make a choice right now.

06:58Oh, I won.

07:00I really won.

07:01Yes, you did.

07:03You won.

07:04And even though Logic says it's my choice, and I should take the 30th spot in the Rumble,

07:13I don't care.

07:15If Michaels is number one, then Chris Jericho enters the Rumble as number two.

07:23What?

07:24I can't believe this.

07:26That way I prove I am the best in the world.

07:31Are Jericho's obsessed with HBK?

07:34Are you speaking of HBK?

07:36Come on.

07:37Shawn Michaels, the showstopper, and the Royal Rumble number one.

07:41Jericho in the Royal Rumble match number two.

07:45Two Raw superstars will kick off the Royal Rumble match.

07:49And Michaels, uh-oh, Michaels puts on the brakes.

07:52He skins the cap, the showstopper, he'll steal the showstopper.

07:55And Jericho is eliminated.

07:58Could it be like Sunday?

08:01Could we be looking at Sunday?

08:03Will Shawn Michaels once again win the Royal Rumble?

08:06Will Shawn Michaels once again go the distance, King?

08:09Did Jericho change his mind?

08:12Shawn Michaels went the distance seven years ago, and seven is a lucky number.

08:18Could Shawn Michaels win the Royal Rumble match?

08:21Invite himself to the main event, the WrestleMania King.

08:24What a way to start out the Royal Rumble.

08:27Shawn Michaels, number one.

08:28Chris Jericho, number two.

08:30The Royal Rumble is Sunday.

08:32Invite Bob!

08:33It's all right for you!
