(Chris Jericho makes his way down to ringside for the latest edition of the
Highlight Reel.)

Chris Jericho:
Before we get started here tonight, I just wanna say, although I was not on the
winning end of the Intercontinental Title match last night, I have to say that
I am still pleased that Chris Benoit came out of the match as the Champion.  I
can honestly say that there would be nothing worse than having either Rob Van
Dam or Val Venis, the wrestling equivalent of Cheech and Ron Jeremy, as the
Intercontinental Representatives of this company.

But that being said, I am now setting my sights a lot higher than the IC title.
Shane McMahon said earlier on that there is an open spot in the Elimination
Chamber match at Unforgiven, and who knows more about the Elimination Chamber
than I do?  Nobody, that's who!  Which is why I am the ideal choice for the
sixth place in the chamber.  

Not only does my experience in the chamber make me the natural candidate, I
also did something that I have yet to be rewarded for, and that is I killed
Hulkamania.  I ran Hogan right out of town, and yet I still haven't received
a word of thanks, or a celebratory card from any of those ass clowns in the
back.  As far as I'm concerned...

(Jericho's words are cut off by the music of....Rowdy Roddy Piper!)

Roddy Piper:
Well, well, well, ha, if it isn't Chris Jericho, the man who calls himself the
Highlight of the Night.  Ha, Jericho, you're still coming out here thinking
that you're quite the talkshow host.  Well, you know, I could talk a good talk,
back in the day, but the difference between you and me is that I could then
fight a good fight, ha, and kick a few guys asses along the way.

Chris Jericho:
What the hell do you want Piper?

Roddy Piper:
What do I want?  Ha, what do I want?  That's a good question, Jericho.  I hear
ya out here, claiming that you killed Hulkamania.  Well, Jericho if I had a 
nickel for everytime I heard someone say they killed Hulkamania, then I'd be
even more of a rich man that I already am.  The only person who was able to
kill Hulkamania was Hulk Hogan himself, who did it with his own ego.  Not you,
not me, not the Earthquake, The Giant, Ric Flair, Randy Savage, whoever.

Chris Jericho:
Ha, that's real cute Piper, but you really didn't answer my question, so I'll
ask it again, this time nice and slowly - what....the...hell...do you want...
Piper?

Roddy Piper:
Hah...Jericho, I want my spot back.  These people didn't come here to see you
gassing on about Elimination Chamber matches you haven't got a hope in hell of
being in.  They don't wanna see the Highlight Reel taking up Raw time.  What
they wanna see is Roddy Piper on Piper's Pit asking real questions to real
superstars, and givng them their money's worth every damn week.  That's what
I'm doing out here Jericho, I'm taking back my spot!

Chris Jericho:
Oh I see, I see Piper.  You got a few beers in you huh, maybe a little extra
something special too, and you thought you'd come out here and challenge me?
Well that's fine by me Piper, you want Piper's Pit to take over from the 
Highlight Reel?  That's fine, you can have it.  That is, if you can beat me
for the time slot at Unforgiven.

I'll give up on the chance of winning the WWE title to defend my right to bring
my show to these ass clowns each week, rather than having some jumped up drug
addict in a skirt wax lyrical about how much he hates himself.  That's what
I'll do Piper.  But you have to promise me one thing, when I beat your ass at
Unforgiven, you have to promise me that you'll get the rehab that you are in
clear, desperate need of.

Roddy Piper:
You want me to get therapy huh?  Well, how about I give you some therapy right
now?

(Piper drops the mic and knocks Jericho down with a right hand.  Piper's music
then hits, and he returns to the back to a great ovation.)
