(After the first commercial, the entire nWo made its way down to the ring,
fronted by Hollywood Hogan and the WWE Champion Goldberg.)

Hollywood Hogan:
Well, well, well WWE.  It's the Monday after Survivor Series, and it looks as
though the nWo survived, but Shane McMahon did not.  That's why right here and
now, we call the shots, we say what goes, and quite simply, we rule the WWE!

And therefore, there's plenty of business to get down to.  The first thing that
I'm gonna do is issue a warning to each and every WWE superstar in that locker
room back there.  We're not gonna fire any of you, but let me assure you that
if you cross us in any way, shape or form, we will make your life such a living
hell that you'll want to quit anyway.

Speaking of those who have crossed us, we come to the three men who cheated 
their way to victory over the nWo last night.  Shawn Michaels, Booker T and Al
Snow.  Well boys, we've got a real special series of treats planned for you,
and they'll start off tonight.  In just a few moments, when our interview time
is over, you will see Al Snow going one on one against...his own tag team
partner, Marty Jannetty.  And believe me, you two will fight each other without
any funny business, or else things will get much worse for the both of you.

Booker T's punishment will wait until Smackdown, but one man who is going to
get his tonight is Shawn Michaels.  Michaels, yes, you are a legend in this
business, but you will never be as big of a legend as I am.  And tonight, I
intend to prove that, when you square off against....Batista and Kane in a
handicap match!

What?  You thought you were gonna wrestle me, Michaels?  Believe me, you're
not even fit to be in the same locker room, let along the same ring as me,
Shawn.  And after tonight, the only place that you're headed to is the ER,
followed by the retirement home, chump.

Another guy on our list is Chris Jericho.  You thought you were pretty clever
brother, getting yourself counted out to save your title.  Well let me tell
you a little something, it didn't work, because right here and right now, I
am ordering a rematch between yourself and Scott Steiner at Armageddon, with
a little something extra to ensure that there are no more cheap countouts.  You
see, at Armageddon Jericho, you're facing Steiner inside of a steel cage!  Yeah
that's right, no-one gets in, only Steiner gets out!

As far as tonight is concerned Jericho, you'll need to be on your A-Game, for
tonight you and your little buddy Chris Benoit are squaring off against Scott
Steiner, and the most dominant WWE Champion of all time, Goldberg in a tag
team encounter.  And believe me, you two are in for no easy ride against this
pair.

Now, speaking of nWo tag teams, you're going to see a lot of them tonight.  The
reason being is that we're going to determine the number 1 contenders to the
tag team titles, currently held by Bret Hart and Stone Cold, another two Hulk
Hogan never-will-bes.  And to determine the number 1 contender, the nWo is
going to fight itself!  By that, I mean the first ever nWo Tag Team Battle
Royal.  Eight men, four teams, the last team left will get a shot at the tag
gold at Armageddon.  See, you're loving the way we book things already.  And
believe me, it's only going to get bet...

(The music of Triple H kicks in, as the Game comes out onto the ramp.)

Triple H:
You know something Hogan, people said that I cut long, boring promos, but by
God, even I have been put to shame by the mindless crap you've been spewing
out here.  

So the nWo are in charge - big deal.  The fact of the matter, you still all
suck!  But I didn't come out here to tell you something you already knew, I
came out here with a message.  And not for you Hogan, for Goldberg.  The time
has come Goldberg, for the WWE Title to come back where it belongs, and that
is around my waist.  So Goldberg, I am challenging you for the WWE Championship
at Armageddon.  Whaddya say Bill?

Goldberg:
You know something Triple H, as far as I'm concerned...

Hollywood Hogan:
Woh, woh, woh!  Hold on a second here.  As you said yourself Hunter, the nWo
are in charge around here.  So you can't just walk around demanding shots at
our belts.

You want Goldberg at Armageddon?

Triple H:
You're damn right I do.

Hollywood Hogan:
Fine, you can have him.  IF, and only if, you defeat Randy Orton here tonight
by pinfall or submission.

Triple H:
Orton?  I pinned his ass to the mat last night.  I'm done with him Hogan.

Randy Orton:
Hunter, do we have to remind you again?  Shane McMahon isn't in charge anymore,
we are.  So Hunter, you're done with me not when you think you're done, but
when we say you're done.  Deep down Hunter, you know that your win last night
was little more than a fluke, and don't forget what happened to you after the
match.  I walked out of the ring, you had to be helped out.  Do you see where 
I'm going here Hunter?  You're not done with me, not by a long shot.

Triple H:
You know what Orton, that's fine.  I'll kick your ass again tonight, just like
I did last night before your little cheap shot, and then Goldberg, when it 
comes time for Armageddon, you're the one who's going to be next.

(Triple H's music hits, as the scene fades out.)
