-If ya smell…(And Vince IS going to smell it…) Rocky comes down to the ring and gets on the mic. Finally he’s come back to Chicago. Chicago is known for a lot of things- the Windy City, the first place Bears, and now where Vince got down on his knees and kissed some ass. Right here, in this very ring. Vince comes down to the ring and snatches the mic from Rock. Blend of “Rocky” and “Asshole” chants. Vince asks if Rock plans to humiliate him. To belittle him. His name is Vince McMahon, a certified billionaire, and can buy and sell every person in this arena. A man of his distinction does not kiss ass, especially not the People’s Ass. Rock is going to apologize and…WHAT? Stone Cold is on the TitanTron, “what”-ing his days away. Does Vince think Kurt was going to save the day? It’s a funny thing, because Stone Cold just kicked Angle’s ass. We see Austin whoop on Kurt for awhile. Austin came to make sure Vince kisses ass tonight. We get a hell yeah for Vince to kiss some ass. Rock takes his mic back. Sure sucks to be Vince tonight, huh? Now…The Nature Boy, Ric Flair, comes out. Ric says that Austin just took care of Vince’s plan A, but now he’s going to take care of plan B. If anyone else tries to come down and interfere in Vince’s ass-kissing, they’re suspended! Rock says there’s only one thing left to say- Vince, get down on your knees! (Cue porn music) Now it’s time for the People’s Ass. Rock does a little slow striptease, but then stops. Vince’s lips aren’t good enough for the People’s Ass. But he’s still going to kiss some ass. It’s going to be a slobberknocker! Out comes J.R.! Rock introduces the two and tells J.R. to put his cowboy hat on Vince. “Maybe J.R.’s wearing a thong!”- Micheal Cole. He asks if J.R. put some barbecue sauce on his booty. J.R. gets ready to pull down his pants, but Rock stops him and tells him to go over and sit at the announcer’s booth. The real ass Vince is going to kiss will give him Stratusfaction. Out comes Trish, and Vince smiles. Rock offers Vince some chap stick and tells Trish to turn around. She drops the drawers a little, but Rock stops Vince again, calling him a sick fffffff…reak. Vince is going to kiss a different ass, a hand-picked ass…Rikishi’s! “Look at the size of that ass!”- Jim Ross. Rock Bottom to Vince! Rock tosses Vince’s face into Rikishi’s ass! On behalf of the millions of Rock’s fans, Vince’s Ass-Kissing Club is officially closed! (Thank freakin’ goodness, no more saggy ass!)
Commercial break.

Commercial break.
-Booker T comes in a knocks on McMahon’s door, and Ric Flair is inside. Booker is looking for Vince. Ric offers the chance to talk to him. Booker has a common bond with Vince- a hatred for Austin. He needs to talk to Vince. Ric says Vince was “rear-ended”, and he won’t be back tonight. He asks if Booker took Austin’s car. Booker says that he was only taking it for a little joyride. Ric says he isn’t hiring tonight. Booker wants him to tell him he didn’t say that. Ric says he isn’t hiring tonight…whooooo.
-The Acolytes (Shock! Shock!) play cards as Undertaker walks by. The stare at him and he asks if they have a problem. Bradshaw says that he’s always had Taker’s back, and now he’s just slapping him in the face. Taker says if he slapped him in the face, he’d be in a corner crying like a little baby. They must think that J.R. didn’t get what he had coming to him. They must think J.R. is better than Taker. Maybe they think they’re better than Taker. He’s going down to the ring. He’ll teach them about respect, even if he has to beat it out of them.
Commercial break.
Bradshaw vs. Undertaker

Here is your winner- Undertaker
-After the match, Taker goes for his bike, but it’s just sitting there at the top of the ramp. RVD comes out and hits Taker with a chair!
Commercial break.
-Sharmell interviews Jericho, saying that Jericho didn’t fare well against Austin on RAW. Jericho says his opinion is the only one that matters. And his opinion is that she should sit down and shut up as he beats Austin and Rock tonight and becomes the Undisputed Champion on Sunday. He’ll cement his status as the next Living Legend and he’ll become one of the greatest WWF superstars ever.
Commercial break.
