(In the backstage area, Randy Orton bursts into Triple H's locker room.)

Randy Orton:
So, I walk into the building tonight, and I see the schedule, and they've got
me teaming with you Hunter.  This is BS.  I'm the WWE Champion, and I made it
quite clear that I want nothing to do with you.  I don't trust you, I don't
trust Flair.  It seems as though the only person I can trust around here is
myself.  So I suggest that you don't bother getting ready for tonight's match,
because I'm gonna go see Shane McMahon, and use my championship rights to have
the match cancelled.

Triple H:
Randy.  Randy, calm down.  I'm not exactly thrilled about this either, it's not
like I can trust you after what you did to me in the past, and you're right not
to trust me, because you've got something I want, something I crave, the World
Heavyweight Championship.  But Orton, look it at it this way, I'm the lesser of
two evils for you.  You go to Shane McMahon, he won't cancel the match, because
he knows that he can get ratings off this, off the build-up to Summerslam.  He
won't cancel the match, no, he'll just take me out of it.

Randy Orton:
Well that's fine by me, I d..

Triple H:
Let me finish Orton.  He'll take me out of the match, and he'll put Jericho in
there.  And you know damn well that Jericho has already jumped you from behind,
and he won't hesistate to do it again.  You'd be out there with Jericho, Rock
and Benoit.  Three guys who want your title, three guys that want to kick your
ass, and will stop at nothing to do so.  I'm not saying I don't want to kick
your ass, because I do and I will, but only when the time is right.  When it
comes times for me to beat your ass and take your title, I'll tell you to your
face, and that exactly where I'll hit you.  No back-jumping, no sneak attacks,
I will look you right in the eyes and tell you that I am going to beat the
living hell out of you.  But that's Summerslam, Orton.  Tonight, I've got your
back, whether you like it or not.  I'll see you out there.
