WWE RAW Opener:

RAW opened up with footage from last week looking at Shawn Michaels against the Spirit Squad, and then the post match beat down of the Heartbreak Kid until Marty Jannetty made the save. Vince McMahon then announced that next week, Jannetty would receive a WWE contract if he joins the Vince McMahon I disagree Club, tonight! The fireworks then went off in the arena as Joey Styles, Jerry Lawler and the Coach welcomed us to the show! As well as the I disagree Club, the Coach will interview John Cena as well as Trish Stratus vs. Candice Michelle for the Women’s Title!

In the arena:

The music of Edge hit in the arena as he made his way down to the ring with Lita! Lita is nearly falling out of her top. WOW. Edge got on the mic and said that time is up for Mick Foley. Edge said last week he challenged him for a match at WrestleMania, so what is it, yes or no? He said he doesn’t know what Foley has planned from April 2, whether he will beef himself out at an Indy show or write another book that no one will read, but this has to be his best option. Edge told Lita to get the tickets out, and they are two plane tickets to Long Island, and they can be there by midnight. He said he will do it because he should be main eventing WrestleMania and it’s his fault that he’s not! Edge said if Mick isn’t man enough to show up, then they are going to make a little house call. The music of Mick Foley then hit! Foley made his way to the stage and said Edge has it all wrong, it’s not that he’s not man enough to come to Washington (cheap pop), but it was Edge who lost to John Cena at the Royal Rumble and two weeks ago on RAW, so if he’s looking for someone to blame, blame himself. He said Edge had it, and Edge choked. Edge said that the only choking that will happen is his hands on Foley’s throat at WrestleMania 22. Foley declined the match and Foley said he was a transitional champion on three occasions, making him the greatest transitional champion of all time! Foley said he has nothing to prove.

Edge told the crowd to shut up as they chanted for Foley, and said if he’s the Rated R Superstar, then Foley’s Rated O, for overrated. Edge said Foley won’t be remember for his title wins, he’ll be remembered for having his ear ripped off, being thrown off the Hell in a Cell and showing up in McMahon’s hospital room with a sock puppet. Edge called Foley pathetic, and that he has a lot to prove because he’s never won at WrestleMania! Edge said he’s had his count out’s and disqualification’s and dumpster matches, but he’s never had that classic legend making Mania performance that Foley craves! Edge said he’s never lost at WrestleMania, triangles ladder matches, TLC matches, he won in his hometown of Toronto, but that’s okay, tuck your tail between your legs because if Foley went against Edge at WrestleMania, he’d lose. Foley said Edge is right, Edge is younger and in better shape, and apparently he cares more about him than he does about Edge. Foley said he didn’t have one defining WrestleMania moment, so while he rejects the offer for a wrestling match at WrestleMania, but he’d like to challenge him to a match with no rules, no disqualifications and no excuses! Foley vs. Edge at WrestleMania in a Hardcore Match! Foley said just in case he needs to make up his mind, he’ll give them some help. Foley goes to the back and then comes back out with a barbwire baseball bat! Foley makes his way down to the ring and Edge and Lita bail into the crowd.

In the arena:

Coach is in the ring and the mic isn’t working, so he gets a new one and introduces us to the WWE Champion, John Cena! Cena is getting a very mixed reaction and Coach said last week Triple H won the right to face him for the WWE Title at WrestleMania, and Triple H is a ten time champion, and arguably the greatest wrestler alive today. Coach asked Cena if he really thinks he has a chance. Cena grabbed the mic and took off Coach’s glasses and went to speak, but then the music of the Game then hit as he made his way down to the ring! Triple H got on the mic and told Coach to take his seat and he can handle this one. Triple H said that before Cena answer’s Coach’s question, he needs to think about what he just told him. He said that please tell him that he wasn’t just about to tell the whole world that you can beat him. Cena laughed and said it’s like this. He said he’s been here for four years, and he knows four years ago when he walked through the door, he probably said that jackoff won’t last 2 weeks. He said he lasted long enough to get him a main event shot at WrestleMania 22, against the King of Kings, Triple H, for the WWE Championship. He said he’ll be honest with him, he doesn’t have his resume, and like these people, he doesn’t have his respect, but going into WrestleMania there is one thing he’s got that Triple H don’t, he’s got the title. Triple H said excuse him if he’s not afraid of the guy who’s one big move is pumping up his reeboks!

Triple H said Cena is the champ, and he heard Edge and Foley talking out here earlier talking about transitional champions. He said transitional champions are in the right place at the right time, and it’s a matter of time before that title goes back around the waist of the man who truly deserves to wear it, and that is called a transitional champion, and that’s all that Cena is. He said don’t get him wrong, he knows Cena is tough, and he has seen him take some really bad ass kicking’s and he keeps getting up, he never quits. He’s like Rocky Balboa. He’s got all this passion and heart and desire and dedication. He happens not to be a very good wrestler, but in the movies, Rocky Balboa always finds a way to win. But this isn’t the movies John, this is real life, and in real life, you can’t beat the bad guy. Cena said thank you, you just won him 50 bucks in the “I know what Triple H is gonna say when he comes down here pool”. Cena said he’s heard that from every person who’s stepped into the ring with him. Cena asked Triple H what makes him any different from any of them.

Triple H said he doesn’t even have to answer that question, because Cena knows the answer deep down inside his heart. The fact is that looking into his eyes, that scares the crap out of him. Cena said fact, he’s not the companies greatest athlete. Fact, Triple H is a ten time champion. Fact, Triple H has beaten every top superstar in this business. He can walk down to this ring without the title and say he’s the best, and the people will agree with him. Cena said if that makes him afraid of Triple H, then he has his facts twisted. He said on the long line of superstars that Triple H has decimated on the way to the top, there’s one name that’s not on the list, John Cena. And that is a fact. Cena and Triple H got nose to nose and then McMahon comes on the Tron and says to hold up. Vince said that prior to WrestleMania, they are going to be tag team partners on Saturday Nights Main Event on NBC and they will face the three individuals representing Smackdown’s main event at WrestleMania. So it will be Triple H and John Cena against Rey Mysterio, Randy Orton and Kurt Angle! McMahon wished them good luck and Cena and Triple H can’t believe it!

McMahon is shown in the back talking on the phone and Shawn Michaels comes in. Michaels said this is between him and McMahon, and please leave Marty out of this. McMahon said he doesn’t know what it is, all day long, just being in the nations capital he has the feeling of power. Imagine if Bush made Jacques Chirac kiss his ass, but that’s not too likely. What is likely is Marty Jannetty will in fact kiss his ass. McMahon said Michaels needs to listen to his friend, he gave him some good advice. He said if Michaels gets involved, he too could be a member of the Vince McMahon I disagree Club!

Backstage:

McMahon is in the bank and took down his pants and is checking out his ass. McMahon looks to be ina jovial mood and the I disagree Club is up next!

In the arena:

The Spirit Squad are in the ring and do a chant about the I disagree Club. These guys suck. Vince McMahon then makes his way to the ring. McMahon said the Spirit Squad reminds him of the Rockers, they had that same spirit but then Michaels and Jannetty went separate ways. Michaels became a multi time WWE Champion, an all time great in the industry, and then you have Michaels’ friend and former tag team partner Marty Jannetty, and his career has been a downward spiral and he will hit rock bottom here tonight. McMahon then introduces us to the man who will be begging him for a job, here is Marty Jannetty. Jannetty made his way to the ring to the Rockers music. McMahon said last week, he looked pretty good out here helping his pal out, but he doesn’t look so good at the moment. McMahon asked if Jannetty is going to back out of this. McMahon said Jannetty needs this job, and it’s not any secret that Jannetty is flat broke, so he desperately needs this job. McMahon said he shouldn’t have the sour puss look on his face, and he’s no different than anyone in this arena tonight, and they are no different than anyone around the world, they all kiss their bosses ass. Admit it!

McMahon said he won’t be doing anything that they don’t do each and every day, and told Jannetty to get on his knees. McMahon took off his jacket and told him to get on his knees again. Jannetty didn’t move, and McMahon yelled at him to get on his damn knees. Jannetty got on his knees and McMahon unbuckled his belt and said excuse him while he whips this out. McMahon asked Lilian what she’s smiling at and then took out his ass, and he’s wearing a damn thong. McMahon said there are flash bulbs popping everywhere, and that’s not just a normal ass, it’s a magnificent ass! McMahon said with that in mind, go ahead and kiss his ass, he’ll even bend over for him. McMahon bent over and shook his ass around and told Jannetty to kiss it. Marty stood up and McMahon is pissed. Jannetty said there must be some other way, and McMahon said alright, maybe he got a little carried away. McMahon called Chris Masters down to the ring, and out he came. McMahon called for a chair in the ring and said to take at look at this magnificent physique. He said Jannetty doesn’t have to endure the humiliation of kissing his ass, he has to do the one thing that no man has ever done, break the Master Lock. He said he’ll be the referee for this thing, and Jannetty needs to sit down in the chair and Masters is going to apply a full nelson and if he breaks the Master Lock, he will get his contract.

Masters locked in the Master Lock and McMahon screamed to break his neck. Jannetty started to fight up and then McMahon kicked him in the balls. McMahon said Jannetty is going to kiss his ass whether he likes it or not! Masters tried to shove Jannetty into his ass and then Michaels hit the ring! Michaels hit right hands on Masters and then nailed Sweet Chin Music and McMahon is caught with his pants down! Michaels grabbed the steel chair and then Shane came from behind and levelled Michaels! Shane nailed Michaels right in the head with a chair, hard! Michaels is down and out and Vince said if Michaels wants to fight a McMahon so bad, at Saturday Nights Main Event it’s Michaels one on one with his son Shane! Shane then spoke to Vince, and Vince said he had a brilliant idea, and then Shane went over to the knocked out Michaels and dragged him over to Vince and shoved his face right in Vince’s ass! Vince said Shawn Michaels has just kissed his ass, and Vince said he will be kicking Shawn’s ass at WrestleMania!
