World Wrestling Entertainment now has Backlash clearly in its rear-view mirror and it is time to look ahead to Judgment Day in less than two weeks. What will be the main event of the pay per view? Will John Cena defend the WWE Title and if he does, who will the title defense be against? What will happen tonight when Randy Orton gets another shot at John Cena? Will we see anything new between Ric Flair and Carlito or is Ric Flair’s scheduled absence from University Park going to put this one on ice for another week? Will the new Intercontinental Champion make his way to Happy Valley and if he does, will he be defending his title? Will Raw be graced with the presence of the ECW World Champion as he prepares for Rob Van Dam tomorrow night? Will we see the World Tag Champions on tonight’s show and if so, will Ken Kennedy exact some revenge for his loss this past Friday on Smackdown? Will we see the Women’s champion on this week’s show?
We are live from University Park, Pennsylvania and your announcers are Jim ‘Quaker’ Ross and Jerry ‘you said Nittany? I thought you said . . .’ Lawler.
We start off with Jonathan Coachman in the ring and he brings out the ECW World Champion, Vince McMahon. Vince walks to the ring as only the ECW World Champion can. Vince takes the mic and he says that he does not come here only as the ECW champion, but as the chairman of the board. He says that he has never seen anything like what happened last week. There was one dominant individual who destroyed four WWE superstars in one night. That has never ever been done before. In case you missed the show, it is time to see what the Great Khali did to Shawn Michaels, Edge, Randy Orton, and John Cena.
We return to Vince in the center of the ring and he is smiling with Jonathan Coachman. Vince says that one man taking on Edge, Randy Orton, Shawn Michaels, and John Cena all in one night. As a result, at Judgment Day, the man who will face WWE Champion John Cena is . . .
Shawn Michaels comes out and he interrupts Vince McMahon’s announcement. Shawn tells Vince not to finish his last horrific line. Shawn wants to remind Mr. McMahon that it was the Heartbreak Kid who was supposed to face John Cena last week. He says that he was going to beat John Cena once again to become the number one contender. However, the Great Khali attacked him from behind and took him out.
Vince says that we will never know if Shawn Michaels would have beaten John Cena last week, but he asks Shawn if he wants to be named the number one contender. Shawn assures Vince that he never made Shawn anything. For Vince to make him anything, that would imply that he did something for Shawn or did him a favor. Shawn says that Vince has never done anything for him. Shawn says that he is here to earn what he wants. Shawn says that he has officially lost it because he wants to wrestle the Great Khali tonight.
Vince says that he always thought that Shawn had more guts than brains because we might see it tonight. Vince says that tonight Shawn Michaels will face the Great Khali in a No Disqualification match with the winner facing John Cena at Judgment Day.
Vince says that everyone is talking about the ECW World Heavyweight Title and Vince McMahon. Vince is interrupted by Bobby Lashley and he comes to the ring. Vince wants to know why Bobby Lashley is in the ring. Bobby says that Vince gave Shawn what he wanted so he wants what he asked for. Vince tells Bobby Lashley that he cannot touch Vince, ‘his son’ Shane, or Umaga unless physically provoked or he will never get another shot at the title. Vince asks Lashley how it feels and then he asks Bobby if he wants to hit him. Vince tells Bobby that he is glad that he is here. Vince says that everyone was going to enjoy some footage. It is time to take a look at what happened at Backlash and we see Vince McMahon winning the ECW World Title.
Vince asks Bobby how it feels to be in the ring with a champion. Vince wants Bobby to call him ‘champ’. Vince asks Bobby if he wants to knock his block off and then Vince tells Bobby to calm down. Vince says that he has something else to show Bobby Lashley. We go to footage from right after Wrestlemania that is now outdated. We see a photo of the three champions after Wrestlemania, but now it is a collector’s edition because it is all wrong. Vince tells Bobby to look at him and he says that something is not right. Vince says that it is time to make it right and we see Vince’s head on Bobby Lashley’s body. Vince asks Bobby if he wants his rematch. Vince asks Bobby if he never heard of the grapefruits. Vince says that he will take Bobby Lashley on at Judgment Day. He will be Bobby’s judge, jury, and executioner. Vince says that his tag team partners will be Umaga and ‘his son’ Shane. Vince asks Bobby how that sounds. Bobby says that it sounds good. Bobby tells Vince that he wants to tell Vince what he thinks of him but he cannot put his hands on Vince. Vince taunts Bobby to ‘send a message’ but reminds Bobby that it cannot be physical. Vince says that Bobby Lashley was humbled before the champion. Vince leaves the ring and Coach remains in the ring. Lashley pulls Coachman back into the ring and Lashley punches Coachman. Lashley throws Coachman out of the ring and then he goes out after the executive assistant. Lashley slams Coachman’s head into the ring steps and then he grabs a cord and he chokes Coach with it. Lashley returns to the ring and then he signals for Vince, but Vince stands at the top of the ramp with the belt over his head. Lashley leaves the ring and he spears Coachman to add insult to injury.
We go to the Diva’s Locker Room and Mickie James checks to see if Candice is ready for their match and she asks Mickie to help her get ready. We go to commercial.
