The show this week starts with Cena’s music and he comes out with Kane, Lashley, RVD and Sabu. Video from Cena’s match last week with Umaga when Show attacked him.
Cena grabbed a mic and says just when you think it’s safe to get back in the water and have a match with your local Samoan bulldozer and Big Show runs in. Cena wants to start SS early. The rest of the guys in the ring feel the same way.
Team Rated RKO come out through the crowd. Edge says it’s great that he’s talking trash. But shouldn’t it be done by someone who didn’t get his ass kicked last week? Like them? They put a hall of fare in the hospital last week.
Randy grabs a mic and gets a ‘you suck’ chant. He yells at them to shut the hell up. After Nitro wins tonight they will have four champ on their team. Plus the newest up and comer - Mike Knox.
Flair’s music hits and he comes through the crowd with his team of fogies (Hey, it’s not meant in a mean way - I love them all). Flair says he’s not impressed with them taking out Piper and winning in a glorified handicap match. He’s the dirtiest player in the game and he thinks what they did was pathetic.
SQ comes out through the crowd. He says what’s pathetic is all the old guys wrestling. Kenny says as the youngest captain of a SS team...
DX comes through the crowd with CM and the Hardys. HBK says lets start this thing right here, right now. He wants to start the royal rumble right now! HHH talks to him and he says they should start SS right now.
HHH says to be realistic. He says Flair and the guys can beat up SQ anytime. They’re easy. Take it from most guys, they are easy. Cena wants Big Show out here, but he saw an open case of twinkies outback. The chance of him coming out are slim and none. Well, not really slim. So there’s only two teams out here ready to fight. There’s Edge and the Village People. There’s team extreme of CM and the newly reunited Hardys. Then there’s DX and they have two words for you...
Edge says everyone’s sick of them and their two words. He thinks even Cena is sick of them. Since Show’s too busy to come out he’d like to see ths two of them fight.
Show and his team comes out. He says he’s the most dominant in the SS. If they don’t believe him...
Cena tells him he’s ready to throw down.
All the teams start to the ring and Vince’s music hits. He tells them all to not move another step. Vince says they’ve all lost their minds. They are not having SS tonight. They will have individual matches with SS team members. And the main event will be an all captains tag team match. Cena, Flair, HBK & DX will face, Edge, Randy, Kenny & Big Show. All the heels get serious heat. Vince guarantees it will be a night we will never, ever forget. He grins and leaves.
All the teams glare at each other.
