00:00:00I think you should make this match tonight for

00:00:05the World Wrestling Federation Championship.

00:00:10I think you should make this match tonight for

00:00:14the World Wrestling Federation Championship.

00:00:19You're on.

00:00:24I just said, you're on.

00:00:29Say hello to my little friends, the Acolytes.

00:00:33WWF title on the line.

00:00:35Jericho got everything to gain here and nothing to lose.

00:00:38Jericho.

00:00:39Oh, yeah.

00:00:40Jericho counts on Triple H.

00:00:42Right into the referee.

00:00:43And down goes the champion.

00:00:45And Stephanie just threw the bell.

00:00:47And WWF title bells into the ring.

00:00:49Get it, Triple H. Get it.

00:00:51Triple H is on.

00:00:52And now it's on the head.

00:00:54Triple H is down.

00:00:56Stephanie.

00:00:57Jericho's got the cover.

00:00:59He's got the pin.

00:01:00But there's no referee.

00:01:01Up for Earl Hender.

00:01:02What is this?

00:01:03Oh, Triple H kicked out.

00:01:05Triple H just realized who's in the ring with him.

00:01:08And Earl Hender is not going to take this physical abuse.

00:01:11He cannot put his hands on the WWF champion.

00:01:14Oh.

00:01:15Spinning heel kick.

00:01:16A Jericho.

00:01:17Jericho.

00:01:18Soars the moonsault.

00:01:20No.

00:01:21We got the champion.

00:01:22No way.

00:01:23Chris Jericho has just beat the game for the WWF title.

00:01:28And Triple H is beside himself.

00:01:30He can't believe it.

00:01:32Triple H has just commandeered a referee Earl Hender King and it would appear that they're

00:01:41headed our way.

00:01:42Mike Chioda, you were the legal referee in that match, right?

00:01:46Did I get screwed?

00:01:47Earl, I was a fast count.

00:01:50You're screwed, Triple H.

00:01:51Through Triple H.

00:01:52I want you to reverse that decision now.

00:01:56I'll reverse the decision on one term.

00:02:00That is, nobody touches me as long as I'm a WWF referee, as long as I've got life.

00:02:08And that goes for you, you, and you better never put your damn hands on me again.

00:02:15I'm a man of my word, Earl.

00:02:17And as long as you are a World Wrestling Federation official, nobody will ever lay a hand on you

00:02:24again.

00:02:25Oh, yeah.

00:02:26But there's one other thing I forgot to tell you, Earl.

00:02:28Your ass is fired!

00:02:30Oh!

00:02:31He's fired!

00:02:32Come on!

00:02:33He's got a family!

00:02:34Well, he's no longer a WWF official!

00:02:36Well, this is not right!

00:02:37He's a human being!

00:02:38He's fair game!

00:02:39He doesn't deserve this!

00:02:40Oh!

00:02:41Stop that!

00:02:42Henry!

00:02:43No!

00:02:44Oh!

00:02:45He gets a fire!

00:02:46And he stabbed him!

00:02:47This is not a good open for the game!

00:02:49This may not be a good night for Triple H!

00:02:57How long's that limo?

00:02:58Gotta be somebody important!

00:03:00It's Linda McMahon!

00:03:01What's Linda doing here?

00:03:02Why is your mom even here?

00:03:04You see, at Backlash, The Rock is scheduled and will compete against Triple H for the World

00:03:11Wrestling Federation Championship.

00:03:13But from what I can see, the deck is already stacked against him.

00:03:17My husband, Vince McMahon, will be in the corner of Triple H.

00:03:22So therefore, I think The Rock is outnumbered.

00:03:25I have decided to put someone in his corner to even the odds a little bit.

00:03:32In his corner is going to be none other than Stone Cold!

00:03:38Oh!

00:03:39Stand!

00:03:40Stand!

00:03:41Stand!

00:03:42Stand!

00:03:43Stand!

00:03:44Stand!

00:03:45Stand!

00:03:46Stand!

00:03:47Stand!

00:03:48Stand!

00:03:49Stand!

00:03:50Stand!

00:03:51Stand!

00:03:52Stand!

00:03:53Stand!

00:03:54Stand!

00:03:55Change your mind!

00:03:56No!

00:03:57This is going to hurt me a lot worse than it hurts you!

00:04:00Get her!

00:04:01Oh!

00:04:02Oh!

00:04:03Oh!

00:04:04Oh!

00:04:05Oh!

00:04:06Oh!

00:04:07Oh!

00:04:08Oh!

00:04:09Oh!

00:04:10Oh!

00:04:11Oh!

00:04:12Oh!

00:04:13Oh!

00:04:14Oh!

00:04:15Oh!

00:04:16Oh!

00:04:17Oh!

00:04:18Oh!

00:04:19Oh!

00:04:21Oh!

00:04:22Oh!

00:04:23Oh!

00:04:24Oh!

00:04:25Sherrod!

00:04:26Oh!

00:04:27Oh!

00:04:28Oh!

00:04:29Oh,

00:04:30Oh!

00:04:31Oh!

00:04:32Oh!

00:04:33Oh!

00:04:34Oh!

00:04:35Oh!

00:04:48Oh!

00:04:49Oh!

00:04:50Oh!

00:04:51Oh!

00:04:52Yeah!

00:04:53is a marked man in two weeks at Backlash.

00:04:58It's The Rock with Stone Cold Steve Austin in his corner.

00:05:03And The Rock is coming for the WWE title.

00:05:23It's The Rock with Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:05:53It's the first night in the life of the WWE Champion.

00:05:56What else could happen to Triple H time on SmackDown?

00:06:00Welcome to the First Union Center in Philadelphia.

00:06:02Over 18,000 fans jammed in here.

00:06:05This place has been sold out for months for SmackDown.

00:06:13You didn't know?

00:06:17You're at the cause of my head.

00:06:23The Road Dogg on his way to the ring kicking us off on SmackDown.

00:06:27And King, it was DX sending a message to the tag team champions,

00:06:31Edge and Preston, on Raw Monday night.

00:06:33DX saying we want the tag team titles back in attack in the backstage area at Raw.

00:06:39Oh, you got that right.

00:06:41And big news, my love.

00:06:42We learned that the tag team title match has been made for SmackDown.

00:06:48Edge and Christian are gonna put the tag titles on the line against Raw Dogg and X-Pac.

00:06:53Now, backlash takes place a week from this Sunday on pay-per-view.

00:06:57Tag team titles on the line.

00:06:59Raw Dogg and X-Pac versus Edge and Christian with Raw Dogg in one-on-one action as we kick off SmackDown tonight.

00:07:06Oh, what a night this is gonna be.

00:07:09What an explosive night it's going to be.

00:07:12Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, city of brotherly love.

00:07:18Welcome to the Dogg House.

00:07:21Now then, we're gonna get those tag titles when we get to Backlash.

00:07:31We're gonna burn you boys down and leave your bodies in ash.

00:07:35You see, me and X-Pac won't leave nothing to waste.

00:07:39So what do you punk s*** come out here and get you a taste?

00:07:42Woo!

00:07:44Raw Dogg is ready!

00:07:46Uh-oh!

00:07:47Raw Dogg!

00:07:50Raw Dogg waiting on his opponent for this one-on-one action, Edge.

00:07:59One of you of the Tag Team Champions.

00:08:04I'll tell you, gang, it should be an explosive night here on SmackDown.

00:08:08Following, as we mentioned, perhaps the worst night in the career of the WWF Champion, Triple H.

00:08:14Who's to say tonight's gonna be any different for the champ?

00:08:17I think JR would say it was a bad day at Black Rock for Triple H.

00:08:21You can't help but feel bad for the guy.

00:08:23And here we go!

00:08:25Raw Dogg tried the ambush, didn't work.

00:08:28And Edge with the right hand, knocking the Raw Dogg down.

00:08:31Well, it's been a tough week for Raw Dogg.

00:08:33Also, everybody in DX, as a matter of fact.

00:08:37Edge off the look.

00:08:38What a shoulder takedown by Edge on Raw Dogg.

00:08:41It was Chris Jericho goading Triple H into putting the title on the line on Raw Monday night.

00:08:47And then the fact that Jericho had hired the Acolytes as backup.

00:08:50And then the situation with Earl Hebner, the referee, who was on probation, King.

00:08:54Well, you gotta admit, Earl Hebner should have been fired.

00:08:57I mean, you're right.

00:08:59He was on probation.

00:09:00And then to pull a stunt like he pulled, he had to be pink slipped.

00:09:05King Earl did not have to be fired.

00:09:07I mean, Earl Hebner was standing up for himself.

00:09:10He'd been pushed to the edge by Triple H and Shane.

00:09:12And what a dropkick by the Road Dogg.

00:09:14And we gotta take another look now at how this big matchup started.

00:09:18Yeah.

00:09:19Road Dogg tried to get the jump on him, but Edge was ready.

00:09:21Caught Road Dogg right in the chops with that big elbow.

00:09:24And Road Dogg's in control outside the ring on Edge now.

00:09:28And just when Triple H didn't think that his night could get any worse on Raw,

00:09:31the announcement from Linda McMahon involving Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:09:35Unbelievable.

00:09:36The rattlesnake, Austin 316, Stone Cold is gonna be back at Backlash,

00:09:42and he's gonna be in the corner of The Rock.

00:09:45Oh, my God.

00:09:46Shane and Stephanie were so upset.

00:09:49Stephanie McMahon even wanted to slap her own mother, Linda, yet again, King.

00:09:53But Linda retaliated with a slap around.

00:09:55Oh, I've never seen anything like it.

00:09:56Look at this.

00:09:57Here's a cover and a kick out after two.

00:09:59Linda McMahon slapped her own precious little daughter in the face.

00:10:03Well, Linda was upset.

00:10:04She was torn apart after slapping her daughter, King.

00:10:06And here's a cover by the Road Dogg on Edge.

00:10:08There's two and a kick out by Edge.

00:10:11Well, Linda should have been upset.

00:10:12I've never seen anything like that.

00:10:14Surprised charges weren't filed or something.

00:10:16Well, King, you know, Triple H should have never put his hands on his mother-in-law,

00:10:20attempting to give Linda McMahon the pedigree in the center of the ring.

00:10:23Well, he was provoked.

00:10:25Provoked?

00:10:26Of course.

00:10:27What were you watching?

00:10:28What are you talking about, King?

00:10:30Vince McMahon returns this weekend from his business trip in Europe.

00:10:35What do you think his reaction's gonna be to what's been going on in the past few days?

00:10:38Look at Road Dogg.

00:10:39Duke is dabbing.

00:10:40Uh-oh.

00:10:41Look at the right hand.

00:10:42Too much Duke in a jive.

00:10:43And Edge rolls him over.

00:10:44Here's the cover.

00:10:45Look at this.

00:10:46Road Dogg hooks the leg.

00:10:47It's over.

00:10:48It's over.

00:10:49It's over.

00:10:50It looks like Road Dogg may have perhaps had the tights of Edge King.

00:10:53What?

00:10:54Road Dogg.

00:10:55You seeing things?

00:10:56It looks like Road Dogg may have pulled the tights of Edge to reverse it.

00:10:59He picks up the victory nonetheless over Edge.

00:11:02Well, let's take a look.

00:11:03Let's take a look.

00:11:04I think...

00:11:05I think he may have had a distorted view there.

00:11:07A distorted view there.

00:11:08A distorted view there.

00:11:09What?

00:11:10He pulled the tights to get him over.

00:11:12He won.

00:11:13That's all that matters.

00:11:14Hey.

00:11:15I'll take care of this.

00:11:16I'll round...

00:11:17I'll start rounding everybody up, alright?

00:11:18Divide and conquer.

00:11:19You guys do what you gotta do.

00:11:20Check it out.

00:11:21What does Shane mean by that?

00:11:22Rounding everybody up.

00:11:23I don't know.

00:11:24I just wonder how Stephanie feels about being slapped by her old mother.

00:11:28Had us Triple H thinking about losing to John Conroe.

00:11:30That never happened.

00:11:33Ladies and gentlemen, Iron Mike Tyson!

00:11:40It is unfortunately an honor and a privilege to have you standing in a World Wrestling Federation ring.

00:11:47I'm just happy to be here.

00:11:49Mike Tyson is standing in Stone Cold 3.

00:11:53His business is damn sure about to pick up.

00:11:57Let me make it short and sweet.

00:11:59What I'm telling you is I want a piece of Mike Tyson's ass.

00:12:02Right now you've got your little beady eyes locked on the eyes of the world's toughest son of a...

00:12:09So here's to ya.

00:12:11Whoa!

00:12:12Whoa!

00:12:13Whoa!

00:12:14Whoa!

00:12:15Here we go!

00:12:16Here we go!

00:12:17Tyson and Austin!

00:12:18Tyson and Austin!

00:12:19Tyson and Austin!

00:12:20I told you it was gonna happen!

00:12:21I knew it would happen!

00:12:22Tyson walks Austin!

00:12:23Austin walks Tyson!

00:12:24Austin walks Tyson!

00:12:25Austin walks Tyson!

00:12:26Austin walks Tyson!

00:12:27Is this someone?

00:12:28Well, King Stone called Steve Austin.

00:12:29We'll be in the promo of The Rock a week from this Sunday at Backlash.

00:12:34When The Rock takes on this man!

00:12:35The game, Triple H!

00:12:36Yeah, a World Wrestling Federation title!

00:12:37And I'm just wondering what Triple H thinks about that.

00:12:41You've gotta be very, very concerned!

00:12:42But I'm sure!

00:12:43I'm sure that the McMahon-Hellley regime will come up with something!

00:12:44They'll have a plan!

00:12:45They'll have some way to counteract the Rattlesnake!

00:12:48Ladies and gentlemen, making their way to the ring!

00:12:50The World Wrestling Federation Women's Champion!

00:12:53Kevin E. McMahon-Hellley and the World Wrestling Federation Champion!

00:13:06Triple H!

00:13:07And the World Wrestling Federation Champion, Triple H!

00:13:17Again, it was a surreal night this past 29 on Raw for the game, Triple H.

00:13:22He was goaded into putting his title on the line against Chris Jericho,

00:13:26and then he actually lost the matchup.

00:13:28Wait a minute! That never happened, Michael Cole!

00:13:31You wanna get fired, too?

00:13:32Well, the record book says it never happened.

00:13:34Triple H, that's all that matters, the World Wrestling Federation Champion.

00:13:37And then, of course, the bombshell dropped by Linda McMahon

00:13:41that Stone told Steve Austin would be returning at Backlash.

00:13:45I still can't believe that.

00:13:47You better get it straight, Michael Cole.

00:13:50And what about Stephanie McMahon Helmsley, Triple H's wife,

00:13:54slapped by her mother, Linda McMahon, in the center of the ring on Raw Monday night?

00:13:59Boy, I'm gonna say, I can't wait till this McMahon gets back with her this weekend.

00:14:03He's the most great man in the history of this bitch.

00:14:05He'll figure out something, and he'll also have something to say to him.

00:14:08His wife, Linda, for slapping his lovely daughter.

00:14:10Okay, we do know this about Vince McMahon.

00:14:13He will be in the corner of his son-in-law, Triple H at Backlash.

00:14:17Vince in one corner, Stone Cold Steve Austin in the other corner.

00:14:21Considering the history between those two, who knows what's gonna happen?

00:14:25I don't know.

00:14:26I thought WrestleMania was a big pay-per-view, but way to Backlash.

00:14:29It's gonna be unbelievable.

00:14:30Listen to these people.

00:14:33There's no way to talk to the WWF Champion and the WWF Women's Champion.

00:14:43That's so painful coming from you.

00:14:50That's telling him.

00:14:52You know, over the last couple of days, Steph, I've heard a lot of people talk about Monday

00:14:59night how the McMahon-Helmsley regime had a bad day.

00:15:04It did.

00:15:05More importantly, how I had a bad day.

00:15:11Let's face it, I really don't have very many bad days, and that wasn't one of them.

00:15:18I think because as time goes on and you look back in the record books, the record books will

00:15:25clearly show that it really wasn't a very bad day.

00:15:29I mean, well, I never lost the World Wrestling Federation Championship to Chris Jericho.

00:15:35He's right.

00:15:36I look.

00:15:37It's not there.

00:15:38In the record book, you mean.

00:15:40Right.

00:15:41I mean, that never, never took place.

00:15:45Didn't even happen, Michael Cole.

00:15:47The record books will also show that there was never,

00:15:54a quick count by an incompetent official.

00:16:00Right.

00:16:01It will never show Earl Hebner trying to screw me.

00:16:06Good.

00:16:07It will also never show you, me, and Shane then firing that incompetent official and cutting

00:16:19the problem off and just getting rid of it.

00:16:22He won't even know why he's sitting at home.

00:16:25I have to admit though, possibly the one thing Monday that did happen that could be considered bad.

00:16:34was when Linda McMahon, your mom, came out here to make her very special announcement.

00:16:51Bad announcement, bad.

00:17:04And you know, Steph, while we're talking about your mom.

00:17:08You know, look, you and I have always talked about having kids someday and doing the whole family thing.

00:17:17Little champions.

00:17:18To be quite honest with you, I wouldn't feel comfortable leaving our kids with your mom.

00:17:25She's a psycho.

00:17:26Oh, come on.

00:17:27She needs some help.

00:17:28What the hell kind of mother would slap down her own daughter?

00:17:32Oh, see there?

00:17:33She defended herself.

00:17:34No, he's got a point.

00:17:35He's got a point.

00:17:36Linda McMahon, your mother, reared her hand back and struck down her only daughter.

00:17:48It's a painful, painful memory for Stephanie.

00:17:52Look, look at her face.

00:17:53What kind of a woman does something like that?

00:17:55That's sick.

00:17:56I won't bring our kids anywhere near.

00:17:58Was she going to slap them around too?

00:18:00She'll be kicking the kids and smacking them all over the place.

00:18:03Child abuse.

00:18:04She's sick.

00:18:05She needs help.

00:18:07And all right, maybe I snapped a little bit.

00:18:10Seeing you get slapped, maybe I did snap.

00:18:12I grabbed Linda.

00:18:14I wouldn't have really given her the pedigree.

00:18:16No way.

00:18:17Yeah, sure.

00:18:18I mean, come on.

00:18:19Let's face it.

00:18:20Deep down inside, I'm a hell of a guy.

00:18:23I'm a nice guy.

00:18:24He is.

00:18:25I know him personally.

00:18:26I wouldn't have actually given her the pedigree.

00:18:30And I was just scaring her.

00:18:32I would have let her go.

00:18:33But no, your hothead brother runs over and punches me in the face.

00:18:38Defending his mom, King.

00:18:40Right in the nose.

00:18:41Shane was doing.

00:18:42And I mean, I understand.

00:18:43Shane's always been a little bit of a mama's boy.

00:18:48Uh oh.

00:18:49But that's okay.

00:18:50Hey, there's nothing wrong with loving your mommy.

00:18:53The way Shane does, I mean.

00:18:56But you know, now that I'm thinking about it, when I talk about your mom and I ask the question, what kind of a woman does something like that?

00:19:05I guess it's the same kind of a woman that would come to this ring and do something such as take a fair contest between two great athletes for the World Wrestling Federation champion.

00:19:23Take a fair contest and then try to stack the odds against me by putting in The Rock's corner none other than Stone Cold Steve Austin.

00:19:39What kind of woman would do that, Michael?

00:19:42A fair woman, King.

00:19:44Vince McMahon is in Triple H's corner.

00:19:46But as far as The Rock goes, Rock, you want somebody in your corner?

00:19:55Well, tonight I'm gonna give you a chance to get used to that very thing.

00:20:00To have somebody in your corner.

00:20:03Uh oh.

00:20:04Hell, I'm gonna give you somebody in every corner.

00:20:07What?

00:20:08No.

00:20:09I'm gonna give you somebody all around the ring.

00:20:12What's he talking about?

00:20:14Because tonight, in this very ring.

00:20:18Oh boy.

00:20:19Here we go.

00:20:20Uh oh.

00:20:21It will be none other than the Ayatollah of Butthola.

00:20:28What?

00:20:29Chris Jericho.

00:20:30Ha ha!

00:20:31Butthola?

00:20:32Ha ha!

00:20:33Going one on one with the people's champ, The Rock.

00:20:39Wow!

00:20:40Come on!

00:20:41Jericho versus The Rock!

00:20:42That's good!

00:20:43Oh!

00:20:44But I forgot to mention that it will be a Lumberjack match.

00:20:50Uh oh!

00:20:51And those Lumberjacks are right now, at this very moment, being carefully hand-selected by

00:20:59none other than my brother-in-law, your brother, Shane McMahon.

00:21:04Now, how fair is this gonna be Shane hand-picking the Lumberjacks?

00:21:07Give me a break!

00:21:09So as it goes, never fear.

00:21:10The McMahon-Helmsley regime is in complete control.

00:21:14The McMahon-Helmsley regime is in complete control.

00:21:21We are taking care of business, and read my lips, there will be no more bad days.

00:21:31Well, Triple Ice better hope not.

00:21:32Read his lip!

00:21:33Read his lip!

00:21:34After what he went through- wait a minute.

00:21:35What's this?

00:21:36King, that's- that's Taz's music!

00:21:37I know that!

00:21:38But I mean, what's this?

00:21:39What's he doing out here?

00:21:40I have no idea!

00:21:41Taz is the ECW champion!

00:21:42Won the championship on a day off last week!

00:22:10Get the screen dug out of here!

00:22:12Is that right, champ?

00:22:15You know, it's good to see that you're in such a pleasant mood.

00:22:21But the mood is about to change!

00:22:25Oh, please!

00:22:29Look at that!

00:22:30You know, you run around here like you got everything under control.

00:22:36All your bases covered.

00:22:39But when I say you open that big mouth of yours just a little bit wider and take a bite

00:22:47out of something you can't swallow!

00:22:51You can't talk that way to the WWF champion!

00:22:53What is he talking about?

00:22:55And you ain't gotta put that title on a line!

00:22:59All you gotta do is lace him up real tight, get in that ring, and find out why

00:23:08they call me the Human Wrecking Machine!

00:23:14Taz is challenging, check the legs!

00:23:18You want a piece of me?

00:23:20Tonight?

00:23:21You got it!

00:23:23Wow!

00:23:24Oh, man!

00:23:25You bring that little belt you got around your waist, what does that stand for?

00:23:33ECW or something?

00:23:35ECW or something?

00:23:36ECW!

00:23:38Extremely, uh, well, you know.

00:23:41ECW!

00:23:43ECW!

00:23:44ECW!

00:26:19well a week from this sunday at backlash on pay-per-view king the dudleys go one-on-one with

00:26:24tna but did you see the look on bubba ray dudley's face this past week on raw he grabbed trish stratus

00:26:31and then trish planted a big old kiss on his face trish was playing tonsil hockey with him and he was

00:26:36hypnotized

00:26:49well you heard china's warning alita before the break king and it all involved what happened this

00:26:54past monday on raw it was rios teaming with eddie guerrero to take on the hardy boys and

00:26:59well lita made a bit of a mistake well you're not kidding i mean she came off that top rope

00:27:09quite get off on the right foot and china took exception power bombing s.a rios in the middle of

00:28:0610 days away from his showdown with a rocket backlash he's going to go one-on-one with taz here tonight

00:28:13on smackdown taz doesn't care about anybody he just wants to hurt people and also triple h setting

00:32:05The Douglas are getting wood.

00:32:08The hardware being brought out by Bubba Ray and D-Von.

00:32:12Mamacita, look what's behind you.

00:32:15Are you gonna put Chyna through the table?

00:32:18Mamacita, watch your back.

00:32:22Chyna has no idea Bubba Ray and D-Von are in the ring.

00:32:25And look at the look on Bubba Ray's face, the smile.

00:32:28No.

00:32:30Dudley Boiser.

00:32:34Get out of there, Chyna.

00:32:35I know you're the ninth winner in the world, but-

00:32:37Hey, Chyna just tossed Lee to the Wolves.

00:32:41Chyna tossed Lee to the Dudleys.

00:32:42Worst than the Wolves, the Dudleys.

00:32:45We've seen Bubba Ray do this to Terry, to Leigh Young.

00:32:48Who's the Dudleys?

00:32:50Do you believe it?

00:32:51My God.

00:32:54Bubba Ray Dudley putting Leigh on the table.

00:32:56Look at his face.

00:32:58And Bubba Ray Dudley in that euphoric trance once again.

00:33:06You know what?

00:33:07That's what he wants to do to Chris Stratus.

00:33:09I think he's got that in mind to do to Chris Stratus and Backlash.

00:33:13A young Terry and now Leigh-up on the Dudley Boys hit list.

00:33:18Bubba Ray Dudley.

00:33:21And look at the panic king on Leigh-up's face.

00:33:24Yes!

00:33:25What do you expect of the other face?

00:33:27Ribbon through the table by Bubba Ray Dudley.

00:33:31Imagine the impact on the top rope through a table.

00:33:37Chris Stratus.

00:33:38I hope you were watching.

00:33:41Bubba Ray Dudley sending a message.

00:33:44He looks like Donkey Kong, doesn't he?

00:33:53Come in.

00:33:54Oh, come on.

00:33:55Hey, Shane.

00:33:56How are you doing?

00:34:36Oh my gosh.

00:34:37I don't know if it's stacked, but it's certainly stuck.

00:34:39Rikishi.

00:34:40That's one right load.

00:34:41Rikishi on his way to the ring.

00:34:43How fun is that?

00:34:45Nearly a half ton of math in the ring.

00:34:48Show meets Rikishi.

00:34:50Next.

00:34:54And now, the WWF Rewind featuring Star Wars Jedi Power Battles for PlayStation.

00:34:58Use your Jedi lightsaber to ward off evil minions from the dark side of the Star Wars galaxy.

00:35:04And Malenko now going up on.

00:35:05Oh, Malenko going all the way to the top.

00:35:07No.

00:35:08Top floor.

00:35:09Where's the winner?

00:35:10Scotty's on the limb home.

00:35:11Yes.

00:35:12Scotty's got to be doing flips.

00:35:13Scotty Tuhadi is the new light heavyweight champion.

00:35:16Look at that.

00:35:18And congratulations go out to Rikishi's running buddy, Scotty Tuhadi, the new light heavyweight champion.

00:35:24And of course, Scotty's tag team partner, Grandmaster Sexe, getting better from that knee injury.

00:35:29Understand Grandmaster called Scotty up to offer him his congratulations on Monday.

00:35:33Oh man.

00:35:34Look at him.

00:35:35He's not on slim fast.

00:35:36He's on slim chance.

00:35:37Oh!

00:35:38Look at this!

00:35:39Look at this!

00:35:42And his opponent, he weighs in at 500 pounds, The New Show!

00:35:52He's the largest athlete in the World Wrestling Federation today at 7'2", 500 pounds, King.

00:35:57And he's got this A to Z personality.

00:36:00On Monday night, we saw the, the personality on Raw.

00:36:03All business, games based on.

00:36:06Tonight, we're getting the entertaining, the fun Big Show.

00:36:09Looks like he's in that fun mode tonight.

00:36:11I like that Big Show.

00:36:14Look!

00:36:15Check him out!

00:36:17I don't think Rikishi is impressed.

00:36:20Well, away from Sunday on Pay Per View and Backlash, Big Show will go one-on-one with Kurt Angle.

00:36:27Yo, Rikishi.

00:36:29This is my town.

00:36:31This is Philadelphia, baby!

00:36:37In Philadelphia, they don't call me the Big Show.

00:36:40They call me the Big Funky.

00:36:43Big Funky?

00:36:45So you dance a lot?

00:36:47You shaking a rump?

00:36:49Well, right now, I want to have a little dance contest to see who shakes their rump better.

00:36:54A dance contest?

00:36:55Yeah!

00:36:56So they're going to hit my music, and I'm going to go first.

00:37:00This is going to be good!

00:37:02Big Show is going to, going to dance.

00:37:04He's challenged Rikishi to a dance contest.

00:37:08Look at this!

00:37:09Check out the Big Show!

00:37:10Yeah!

00:37:11What do you think, King?

00:37:12Scale to one to ten.

00:37:13How's he doing?

00:37:14Oh, man!

00:37:15He's off the scale!

00:37:16Look at this!

00:37:17And a little smile on the face of Rikishi as the Big Show is getting down!

00:37:22Get down!

00:37:23Get down!

00:37:24Get down!

00:37:25Look at that!

00:37:26The crowd behind him as well, over 18,000 strong in Philadelphia!

00:37:27This is funky Philadelphia!

00:37:28Oh!

00:37:29Oh, here come the sunglasses!

00:37:30When the shades come out, so does the dancing!

00:37:31And Rikishi's about to shake that big backside!

00:37:32Uh-oh!

00:37:33Oh, man!

00:37:34Oh, man!

00:37:35Look at the big man go!

00:37:36Go, Rikishi!

00:37:37Go, Rikishi!

00:37:38Go, Rikishi!

00:37:39Go, Rikishi!

00:37:40Oh, here come the sunglasses.

00:37:42When the shades come out, so does the dancing.

00:37:47And Rikishi's about to shake that big backside.

00:37:53Oh, man.

00:37:58Look at the big man go.

00:38:02Go, Rikishi.

00:38:03Go, Rikishi.

00:38:04Wait a minute.

00:38:07Well, I guess Big Show gave the thumbs down to Rikishi's dance routine.

00:38:13And the 500 pounder.

00:38:16I think Big Funky Show just suckered Rikishi right in.

00:38:20Well, this is what I mean about this A to Z personality.

00:38:23One minute, he's a fun-loving guy.

00:38:24And the next minute, he's all business.

00:38:27And Rikishi with the right hands hammering away on the Big Show.

00:38:30What a kick to the face of the Big Show.

00:38:33Well, I still say Big Show won the dance contest.

00:38:35Look at this.

00:38:36Look out, Big Show wisely rolls out of the ring.

00:38:39And Rikishi's in pursuit.

00:38:41Hey, now they're gonna have a race.

00:38:42That'll be good.

00:38:43Big Show will win that too.

00:38:45Rikishi slides back into the ring.

00:38:47Big Show with the foot in the back of the head of Rikishi.

00:38:52So, King, we now know four Lumberjacks.

00:38:55Kurt Angle, Perry Saturn, Dean Malenko, and Chris Benoit.

00:38:59That match between The Rock and Y2J tonight.

00:39:02Angle and The Radicals.

00:39:04There should be some good Lumberjacks.

00:39:05This is really shaping up to be a great match.

00:39:07How many are there gonna be, you think?

00:39:08How many Lumberjacks?

00:39:09I don't know.

00:39:10What a big leg across the chest of the Big Show.

00:39:12Here's a cover by Rikishi.

00:39:14Two, and Big Show gets the shoulder up.

00:39:16I just got a feeling when you talk about the number of Lumberjacks,

00:39:20there'll be enough Lumberjacks to take care of The Rock and Jericho.

00:39:25Rikishi couldn't lift The Big Show up, and Big Show made him pay.

00:39:28You know, I have a funny feeling too that none of these Lumberjacks

00:39:31are gonna be too friendly with The Rock and Y2J.

00:39:34I think they're all gonna be, you know, friends, so to speak,

00:39:38with Triple H, Shane, and Stephanie.

00:39:40Did you see that?

00:39:41What power by The Big Show knocking Rikishi for a loop.

00:39:44Hey, look.

00:39:45Wait a minute.

00:39:46No.

00:39:47Yes.

00:39:48Big Show going through.

00:39:49The worm.

00:39:50The worm.

00:39:51The worm.

00:39:52Yes.

00:39:53And a chop to the chest of Rikishi.

00:39:58I don't know if that's a, I don't know if that's a worm.

00:40:01That's more like a, maybe a centipede or maybe a lightning monster.

00:40:05Rikishi whipped into the corner.

00:40:07Here comes Big Show.

00:40:08Nobody home.

00:40:09And Rikishi on an arm drag.

00:40:12Rikishi so agile for a big man.

00:40:15Look out.

00:40:16Look at the moving drop on The Big Show.

00:40:18Oh, man.

00:40:19Can you believe Rikishi?

00:40:21I don't think Big Show can believe.

00:40:22Uh-oh.

00:40:23Big Show, look out.

00:40:24Look out.

00:40:25That's more than 130 pounds feet and 500 pounds.

00:40:28Imagine that impact.

00:40:30Like a freight train.

00:40:32And Rikishi across the way.

00:40:34No!

00:40:35So big, knocked over the top rope.

00:40:37I think I just felt the floor shake out here.

00:40:40That raises to go on the Richter scale.

00:40:43Uh-oh.

00:40:44Both men hurt after going over the top rope.

00:40:47Look out, Big Show.

00:40:48Big Show trying to make it to his feet.

00:40:50Did you fuck yourself?

00:40:51Whoa.

00:40:52Imagine the impact of two men this size falling from the top rope to the floor.

00:40:56Look out.

00:40:58The referee has counted both wrestlers out of the ring.

00:41:05The official decision, a double count out.

00:41:10A double count out, the battle of these two behemoths.

00:41:14Boy, these referees, they're walking on eggshells around here now.

00:41:19After the firing of senior official Earl Hebner on Raw Monday night at the hands of Triple H, Shane and Stephanie.

00:41:25Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:41:29Uh-oh.

00:41:30Big Show.

00:41:32Rikishi and Philadelphia want you to back that butt up.

00:41:41Huh?

00:41:43Back the butt up?

00:41:45That's what he said.

00:41:47Bring your big body in here so we can finish what we started.

00:41:54Rikishi wants more of the Big Show.

00:41:57He wants his big butt back in the ring.

00:41:59The match is officially over, but Rikishi wants some more of the big man.

00:42:04Are we gonna restart this thing?

00:42:07Look at these guys.

00:42:09There's no referee in there.

00:42:11You mean, Rikishi, you want some more of that?

00:42:13Wait a minute.

00:42:15They're the shades, King.

00:42:16And you know what happens when somebody puts on the shades?

00:42:18Look at the dancing glasses.

00:42:19You get down.

00:42:20Oh, look at this.

00:42:21And a pair for Rikishi as well.

00:42:22What the heck?

00:42:23They're gonna finish what they started all right, King.

00:42:24They started out as a dance contest.

00:42:25It's gonna end as one?

00:42:26That's what it looks like.

00:42:27Rikishi and the Big Show ready to get down.

00:42:31Ha!

00:42:32Check it out.

00:42:33Look!

00:42:34Look!

00:42:35Hey, look at Kurt Angle.

00:42:36He can't believe it.

00:42:37I think he's just repulsed.

00:46:44Monday night on Raw was not a good night for the game

00:46:47it may not be a good night in 10 days at Backlash either

00:46:50well, WWF Backlash is presented by the Motor Oil that provides maximum protection

00:46:56Castro GTX

00:46:58drive hard

00:47:06a week from this Sunday at Pay Per View

00:47:09and The Rock beats Triple H with the WWF title on the line

00:47:12yeah

00:47:13well, I know you're all impressed

00:47:15I know you're impressed by Taz

00:47:17but the last time I checked, Philadelphia was WWF country

00:47:22I'll tell you one thing, King

00:47:24Triple H and Taz going one-on-one

00:47:26you've got to give the game credit

00:47:28he's gunny

00:47:29just to accept this match

00:47:31ten days away

00:47:32from his battle with the Rocket Backlash

00:47:34I'll tell you what, it takes a tremendous amount of gusto

00:47:38by Triple H to do that

00:47:39that's why it's the game

00:47:41take a look around you, Michael

00:47:43you see 18,129 people jammed in

00:47:46standing room only here in Philadelphia

00:47:48well, King, it's champion

00:47:55it's champion versus champion

00:47:56man versus man

00:47:57no title on the line

00:47:58this is strictly for pride between Triple H and Taz

00:48:02Triple H so much on his mind this week

00:48:05the terrible night he had on Raw Monday night

00:48:08the what?

00:48:09the terrible night on Raw that he had on Raw

00:48:10I thought you heard him say out of his own mouth

00:48:12that it wasn't that bad a night

00:48:14nothing in the record book about it

00:48:16Triple H tried for a cheap shot

00:48:18was beat to the punch by Taz

00:48:20yeah that's cause that's all

00:48:23that's all Taz can do is fight

00:48:25he's a street thug

00:48:26he can't wrestle

00:48:27he really should be in prison

00:48:29well for Triple H's sake

00:48:30I hope he knows what he's getting into in this matchup

00:48:32you're right

00:48:33Taz is a street thug as you put it

00:48:35he's a street survivor

00:48:36he's a Rottweiler

00:48:38he'll do anything to win

00:48:40he can't let Rottweiler

00:48:42throw him around on the streets

00:48:44oh what a pair of clotheslines by Taz

00:48:47and the game is real at early K

00:48:49one, two, two

00:48:51Taz is giving it to Triple H in the corner

00:48:54hey Raph, Raph, the game is in the ropes

00:48:56I mean that's illegal

00:48:57when a man gets in the ropes

00:48:58you gotta let him out of the corner

00:48:59yeah Triple H's wife Stephanie

00:49:01does not like what she sees outside

00:49:03and Taz was going for the suit

00:49:05but he's got a nice counter by Triple H

00:49:07and a knockdown with a clothesline

00:49:08and that put a smile on a pretty good face

00:49:10how pretty you see

00:49:12Triple H's the game

00:49:14hopefully her mother would slap that lovely face

00:49:16like Stephanie didn't slap her own mother

00:49:18a couple of weeks back

00:49:19oh she was provoked

00:49:20like Stephanie wasn't going to slap her own mother

00:49:22this past week on Raw

00:49:23well you know what I'm getting out of you

00:49:24you are just so negative

00:49:26the WWF is supposed to be fun

00:49:29have some fun

00:49:30what a clothesline over the top rope by Taz

00:49:33and Taz with a great accounting of himself

00:49:36so far on Smackdown

00:49:38ECW champion taking it to the game

00:49:43Triple H

00:49:44look out Kane

00:49:45Triple H bounced off the announce table

00:49:48hey Raph, disqualify him you idiot

00:49:49game goes to the rod

00:49:52what a slam by Taz

00:49:54he said he's a Rottweiler

00:49:57he needs to be curved like a dog

00:49:59well again Kane

00:50:00Taz knows how to hurt

00:50:01there you go

00:50:02but so does the game Triple H

00:50:04as Taz bounces off the steps

00:50:06that's right

00:50:07now business opinions around here

00:50:09bounces head off the steps again

00:50:11Triple H broke the count

00:50:13now back outside the ring with Taz

00:50:14this challenge was made by Taz

00:50:16perhaps second first

00:50:19for the ECW champion

00:50:21as the game begins to systematically

00:50:23pick apart Taz

00:50:25there you go

00:50:26you know we've seen

00:50:27we've seen Triple H bust the rock in here

00:50:29I'd like to see him do that to Taz

00:50:30this is what makes Triple H so dangerous King

00:50:33the methodical way that he picks apart his opponents

00:50:36Triple H

00:50:43what are these people saying

00:50:46he won't hear

01:03:18I love that

01:03:19you'd love X-Pac to be outside the ring as one of those lumberjacks wouldn't you

01:03:54Y2J and Rock aren't going to run from anybody

01:03:56they go outside the ring

01:06:57also Kurt Angle goes one-on-one with Big Show at Backlash

01:07:01and his opponent from England and Alberta, Canada

01:07:04weighs in at 225 pounds

01:07:07he is the World Wrestling Federation Intercontinental Champion

01:07:13Chris Benoit

01:07:16well you know both Benoit and Kurt Angle had their problems with the Big Show

01:07:20you remember that?

01:07:21well they did it was Benoit versus the Big Show

01:07:23and Benoit was disqualified

01:07:25Kurt Angle came out

01:07:26took on the Big Show as well

01:07:28and I'll tell you what

01:07:29what did he do?

01:07:30what did he do?

01:07:31he hit the Big Show with a low blow

01:07:32actually both men did

01:07:33family fuels were disturbed there

01:07:35you know Big Show

01:07:37oh boy

01:07:38you know it was

01:07:39last month at Wrestlemania

01:07:41it was Chris Benoit winning the Intercontinental Championship

01:07:45from Kurt Angle

01:07:46and Kurt Angle was never pinned in that matchup

01:07:48I don't think I've ever seen Kurt Angle get pinned

01:07:51it was a triple threat match

01:07:53oh look at that

01:07:55and that was the same night that Chris Jericho won the European Championship

01:07:58Kurt Angle losing both titles and was never pinned

01:08:01well this should be a great matchup

01:08:02it'll be a great match

01:08:03two contrasting styles

01:08:05one guy Kurt Angle the Olympic hero who loves to run his mouth

01:08:09and Chris Benoit very rarely runs his mouth

01:08:12never smiles either

01:08:13he loves to run his mouth

01:08:15he's confident

01:08:16he's not cocky

01:08:17he's

01:08:18oh

01:08:19Kurt Angle hammering away now

01:08:20and the Intercontinental Champion

01:08:21Chris Benoit

01:08:22Intercontinental title is on the line

01:08:24in this match

01:08:25most of the time when you hear

01:08:27Kurt Angle run in his mouth as you say

01:08:29he's actually

01:08:30he's giving public service announcements

01:08:32he's trying to help people

01:08:33like preaching abstinence at Penn State University

01:08:35what's wrong with that?

01:08:37what's wrong with that?

01:08:38that went over like a lead balloon

01:08:39and look at this

01:08:40oh snap

01:14:54I don't know man

01:14:55let's go

01:14:56let's go mess with the digits

01:14:57King they're the mean street policy

01:14:58come on let's see the dudes lady

01:14:59Rock the count is full

01:15:01it's three and two

01:15:02and Triple H

01:15:03is gonna throw you a curveball

01:15:05it's one thing for him to order you to take on Chris Jericho

01:15:08but it's another

01:15:09to make it a lumberjack match

01:15:11finally

01:15:25The Rock has come back to Philadelphia

01:15:34so let The Rock get this straight

01:15:36Triple H you went ahead and you booked The Rock in a match in a lumberjack match against Y2J

01:15:40but The Rock doesn't have a problem with Y2J

01:15:44The Rock doesn't have a problem in a match with Y2J

01:15:47The Rock does have a problem with the fact that this isn't even a match

01:15:51the only thing you're doing Triple H is delaying the inevitable

01:15:54because the countdown is on

01:15:56Backlash 10 days left for you holding the WWF title

01:16:00so The Rock says this Triple H go ahead and live it up with the WWF title

01:16:05go ahead and have a picnic with the title

01:16:07fly a kite with the title

01:16:09fly a kite with the title

01:16:10go down to the Philadelphia Zoo

01:16:11and suck some monkey nipple with the title

01:16:14What?

01:16:16because Triple H The Rock says this

01:16:22has come Backlash

01:16:24it's gonna be you and The Rock

01:16:26and Vince McMahon

01:16:27if you wanna stick your nose in The Rock's business

01:16:29then The Rock's got a rattlesnake ready to strike on your candy ass

01:16:33you see Triple H regardless of what you throw in front of The Rock

01:16:43regardless of how many lumberjacks you place in front of The Rock

01:16:46regardless of what you do in the next 10 days it doesn't matter

01:16:50because Triple H quite simply put The Rock says you're looking at the next WWF champion

01:16:57if you smell what The Rock is cooking

01:17:01The Rock vs. Y2J with Lumberjacks next

01:17:04And now the WWF Food of the Week brought to you by Lugs

01:17:09that's Lugs, rugged boots and shoes with an attitude

01:17:12since you never know where you'll end up

01:17:14where your Lugs at

01:17:15This is gonna hurt me a lot worse than it hurts you

01:17:19Oh!

01:17:20Oh!

01:17:21Look at that, that guy!

01:17:22Look at that, that guy who's the company

01:17:24Look at that snuck the case out of her daughter's milk

01:17:26Her own daughter

01:17:28Devin is telling her husband

01:17:29to get her the whole

01:17:30Stop that!

01:17:31Stop that!

01:17:32Oh my God!

01:17:33Look at that!

01:17:34Team McMahon

01:17:35Double H has to the pair

01:17:36Bri Lindo is there

01:17:37Lugs, decide and conquer

01:17:40Well, Triple H claims the McMahon healthy machine has put that bad night to the side.

01:17:48No more bad days for this group.

01:17:51Got that right.

01:17:51Starting right now.

01:17:53Starting right here tonight.

01:17:54This is going to be great.

01:17:55Oh, look at this.

01:17:56Triple H and his wife Stephanie flanked by D-Generation X.

01:18:00You don't think, gang.

01:18:03Don't think, gang.

01:18:04Our worst nightmares.

01:18:06Those worst nightmares.

01:18:07What are you talking about?

01:18:08You sleeping on the job again?

01:18:10You know, the Lumberjacks are on their way to the ring.

01:18:12Because there are the Dudley Boys and the Radicals who hurt Angle.

01:18:15All recruited by the McMahon healthy regime earlier on.

01:18:19Well, what did you expect?

01:18:20You know they're going to be on their way to the ring.

01:18:21They're coming out here to do a job.

01:18:23They got a job to do.

01:18:24Every one of these are hand-picked individuals who will be expected to do that job.

01:18:28I think they'll do a great job.

01:18:29They're hand-picked.

01:18:30They're recruited by Triple H's Stephanie and Shane with one goal.

01:18:34To eliminate Y2J and The Rock.

01:18:37Oh, come on.

01:18:37I know it's hard for you to get the big picture, Michael, when you have to take a small screen.

01:18:42But their job is simply to surround the ring and make sure the two come back.

01:18:46In this case, The Rock and Y2J stay inside the ring.

01:18:49That's all their job is.

01:18:53You know, Kang, what happens if The Rock and Y2J fall out of the ring?

01:18:58You think they're just going to nice, just toss them back in there nicely?

01:19:02Hell, probably won't be so nice, but then definitely toss them back in there.

01:19:05It's not a match, it's a massacre.

01:19:06Uh-oh.

01:19:09Watch your ears.

01:19:12Y2J, Chris Jericho, a former WWF champion as of this past month.

01:19:19Wait, wait, wait, wait.

01:19:20Yeah, you heard me, former champ.

01:19:22You must be hallucinating.

01:19:23You checked the WWF record book, and you tell me if anywhere in there it says that Y2J has ever been a champion.

01:19:30Following up, a former jack match is scheduled for football.

01:19:36To receive first pickings, right in order, from Winnipeg, Canada.

01:19:40Freeing in at 227 pounds, Chris Jericho.

01:19:46King, this match was set up by Triple H to make Chris Jericho pay.

01:19:50Not only did Jericho beat Triple H in the ring on Monday night, one, two, three.

01:19:55But Chris Jericho, I'm starting Triple H, and he has all those remarks, those encouraging remarks about Triple H's wife Stephanie.

01:20:03Are you drunk?

01:20:04What do you mean, am I drunk?

01:20:04Have you been drinking?

01:20:06Nothing like that has ever happened.

01:20:07That man has never beaten Triple H.

01:20:09Oh my gosh.

01:20:14Oh my gosh.

01:20:27Over 18,000 strong.

01:20:29Other feet for the Rock.

01:20:31Smell it now, Rock, but I know you think you're smelling the WWF Championship, but you may not make it to that last.

01:20:50I got a bad feeling for you right here tonight, Rock.

01:20:52The Lumberjacks surrounding the ring have been hand-picked, hand-recruited by Triple H, Shane, and Stephanie with one goal, one simple goal to eliminate the two men in the ring.

01:21:07Yeah, the difference here, as we hear in Backlash, there's no Rattlesnakes around the ring tonight.

01:21:12The Rattlesnakes Stone Cold Steve Austin will be in the Rock's Corner at Backlash for this Sunday.

01:21:21Wait a minute.

01:21:21And two great young competitors getting it on in the middle of the ring, The Rock and Y2J.

01:21:27I want to quickly do a Rock impersonation.

01:21:30Finally, Earl Hefner has been fired.

01:21:33Yeah, senior official Earl Hefner fired at the hands of Triple H, Shane, and Stephanie on Monday night.

01:21:38That was a damn shame.

01:21:41Look at Chris Jericho flying across the ring.

01:21:43Again, folks, the Lumberjacks outside the ring, their purpose is to toss the competitor back into the ring if he happens to go outside.

01:21:50Although, I don't believe that's gonna be the case for this group of individuals.

01:21:54Are you kidding me?

01:21:55You think that Chris Jericho is gonna be able to stand up to The Rock?

01:21:58The Rock will have Chris Jericho running in the heartbeat.

01:22:01The Rock with an elbow to Y2J.

01:22:03And The Brawler pulls in control.

01:22:05Will The Rock be the next WWF Champion in ten days at Backlash?

01:22:10Let me just tell you something, I know that's what you're thinking, but it's not a foregone conclusion.

01:22:15Sure, Stone Cold Steve Austin is returning.

01:22:17Sure, he's gonna be in the corner of The Rock, but don't forget, Triple H has Vince McMahon in his corner.

01:22:22Well, you heard what The Rock said earlier on about Vince McMahon, don't be sticking your nose in my business.

01:22:26And Y2J hammering away, and the Rock toss, and Y2J over the top of him.

01:22:32Hey, look at that.

01:22:33It's a mugging, just what you suspected, King.

01:22:36I didn't suspect this.

01:22:37What do you mean you didn't suspect it?

01:22:39There you go, gently tossing it back into the ring.

01:22:43Here's a cover by The Rock, quick to the leg, two and a kick out.

01:22:46Triple H was just giving instructions to The Lumberjacks, basically destroying whoever comes out here.

01:22:52Look at the leg by The Rock, could be it, there's two, and Y2J gets the shoulder up.

01:23:01You just don't know what your point is, Michael Cole.

01:23:03You act surprised, even shocked, when these Lumberjacks do their job.

01:23:07Their duty is to make sure one of these guys get thrown back into the ring, and they get thrown out.

01:23:11Yeah, throw him back into the ring, not assault him outside the ring.

01:23:15Give me a break.

01:23:17You know, when there's so many guys putting their hands on you, it just, oh!

01:23:20This little personal vendetta by Triple H against The Rock, and Y2J, it's got Buchanan.

01:23:26Look at the boss man of Buchanan, he's not even outside the ring, and Jericho is with a dropkick, and the style continues.

01:23:36They're trying to put him back in with their feet.

01:23:37Yeah, General Triple H, the commanding artist, with a right hand of his own.

01:23:44Yeah, that's big.

01:23:47Real tough guy with 20 guys holding The Rock.

01:23:50Well, Triple H slivers the right hand on him.

01:23:52And that's what you gotta like about a guy like Triple H.

01:23:55He's not just the regular supervisor, he don't mind getting his hand dirty with the regular workers.

01:23:59Y2J standing toe-to-toe, The Rock, clothesline, hook of the leg.

01:24:03There's two, and The Rock gets his shoulder up.

01:24:05He's sort of like a common man in that respect.

01:24:09A common man, and Rock tossed out again, and right out in front of us.

01:24:15It's an assault.

01:24:18Kurt Angle.

01:24:20Toss Rock back in the ring, and King, quite frankly, it's a smart move by Chris Jericho to toss The Rock outside the ring.

01:24:28To let the Lumberjacks wear The Rock down.

01:24:30Here's an I Say Moonsault.

01:24:32This could be it.

01:24:33Here's the cover on The Rock, and The Rock gets his shoulder up.

01:24:36Well, I think it'd be a smart move on the part of The Rock to throw Y2J out also.

01:24:40You know, it was that I Say Moonsault, how Chris Jericho beat Triple H in the first place this past Monday night on Raw.

01:24:46All right, here's the reversal. Jericho whipped off the rope.

01:24:50Let me say something right now.

01:24:51Like what?

01:24:52You're on probation.

01:24:53You're on probation.

01:24:54You're on probation.

01:24:55Hooks the leg, two, and Jericho again gets the shoulder up.

01:25:01Chris Jericho will not quit in this big matchup.

01:25:04Neither will The Rock, and The Rock, The Rock just walked outside the ring.

01:25:08Oh, man, this is not right, it's not part of the part of The Rock.

01:25:10The Rock went after The Lumberjacks himself, is he nuts?

01:25:13That's not a smart move.

01:25:15There's Jericho outside the ring now.

01:25:17Who is this?

01:25:18The Lumberjacks attacking Jericho.

01:25:20The Lumberjacks attacking The Rock.

01:25:24This is a massacre.

01:25:26Man, this is a damn execution.

01:25:29A human demolition derby.

01:25:35The Rock is out of the ring.

01:25:37Jericho out for the count as well.

01:25:39Look at the game.

01:25:40This is exactly what he wanted.

01:25:41Look at his adversaries right now.

01:25:42Well, you're right.

01:25:43The blood is on the hands of Triple H. And again, enjoying what he's seeing.

01:25:47The only way he didn't enjoy that war is if Stone Cold Steve Austin was laying right

01:25:56there beside him.

01:25:57Well, the game softening up The Rock.

01:25:59What's Triple H doing on the apron?

01:26:02Headbutt to Chris Jericho, a flying headbutt.

01:26:09Lumberjacks is supposed to stay outside the ring, not inside.

01:26:14How smart is Triple H and how stupid is Chiyota this referee?

01:26:17And Rock goes for the cover of Jericho, hooks the leg, there's two.

01:26:21Jericho somehow gets the shoulder up again.

01:26:24Can't believe it.

01:26:24And again, Triple H on the apron.

01:26:26And now X-Pac in the ring.

01:26:29X-Factor, X-Factor to The Rock.

01:26:32Give me a break.

01:26:34What do you want broken?

01:26:37Come on.

01:26:38Somebody cover somebody.

01:26:41And Chris Jericho goes for the cover on The Rock, hooks the leg, and a kick out by The

01:26:48Rock.

01:26:49Wow.

01:26:50The Rock and Jericho are in the midst of being destroyed by the McMahon-Helmsley regime

01:26:53and the Lumberjacks.

01:26:54And I think Triple H is starting to get frustrated.

01:26:56Jericho's body buster by The Rock.

01:26:59A lot of right, Dudley gets a right hand.

01:27:02Wait a minute.

01:27:03And The Rock is clued in house.

01:27:05What is going on?

01:27:06Oh, no, that's a catch.

01:27:07He's got the game.

01:27:08The Rock's got the game.

01:27:09The Rock's got the game.

01:27:10Forget about Backlash.

01:27:11He's not here today.

01:27:12He's here.

01:27:13You can't do that, Rock.

01:27:14They're going to play in the SmackDown, the WWF Champion.

01:27:18What is Shane doing?

01:27:19Yeah, Shane.

01:27:20We gotta get him some.

01:27:21Jukin and Jivin.

01:27:22He's a Lumberjack.

01:27:24He's gonna get himself some, all right.

01:27:25Get out, Shane.

01:27:26Get out.

01:27:27Shane Hightower on it.

01:27:28And Jericho from behind, the match is still going on.

01:27:31Ooh, that was close.

01:27:32Chris Jericho's trying to win the match.

01:27:35Boy, can you imagine what this is for Jericho's career?

01:27:39Rock bottom, Rock bottom, Rock bottom.

01:27:42Here's the cover, two.

01:27:44Wait a minute, Triple H just pulled The Rock out of the ring.

01:27:47And a lot going on with the Lumberjacks.

01:27:51Man, look out, another Rock bottom.

01:27:55Rock bottom to Jericho again.

01:27:56Look at Shane, what is that?

01:27:59He's distracting the referee.

01:28:01Come on, Triple H.

01:28:02Yeah, that referee's a soldier, Shane.

01:28:04Triple H with the WWF gold to the head of The Rock.

01:28:08That may be as close as The Rock ever gets to the title.

01:28:11Triple H pulling Jericho over The Rock.

01:28:14You gotta count.

01:28:15Triple H knocked The Rock out.
