PRIMETIME COMES ON THE AIR

AS THE CAMERAS BEGIN TO ROLL, A JET BLACK LIMOSINE IS SHOWN PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT. VINCE McMAHON STEPS OUT AS HIS CHAUFFEUR OPENS THE DOOR.

Vince McMahon:"Ah yes, it feels good to be back. Now get out of my way, I have an announcement to make".

Michael Cole:"Vince McMahon is here on PrimeTime"!

PRIMETIME's NEW THEME BY CYPRESS HILL HITS AND IT's VIDEO MONTAGE PLAYS. FIREWORKS POP IN THE ENTRANCEWAY AS THE SET IS SHOWN INSIDE THE LOUD, JAMPACKED ARENA.

Michael Cole:"WrestleMania is just ten days away and these fans can feel it getting closer here in Topeka King"!

Jerry Lawler:"I love it Michael, Vince McMahon is here! That made my night"!

A MATCHUP PICTURE SHOWING KEVIN NASH AND STRIFE IS SHOWN.

Cole:"Well right here tonight folks, what a main event, Strife and Kevin Nash are gonna lock horns in a lumberjack match"!

STACY KIEBLER's MUSIC HITS AND SHE COMES OUT TO A MIXED RESPONSE.

Lawler:"Well that one is gonna be good Michael but what about this one?

A WRESTLEMANIA MATCHUP PICTURE IS SHOWN.

Jeff Hardy is gonna team with Cammie Copeland to face his brother Matt Hardy and the gorgeous Stacy Kiebler"!

CAMMIE COPELAND's MUSIC HITS AND SHE COMES OUT TO A GOOD RESPONSE.

Cole:"Of course Matt and Jeff Hardy had that epic one one one match at WrestleMania last year and this year, there's gonna be a woman for them to turn to and we're gonna get a preview of that tonight".

Lawler:"What is the relationship between Jeff Hardy and Cammie Michael"?

Cole:"I'm not sure King, we've seen them talking to one another in recent weeks and who knows, Jeff's brother isn't around like he used to be so Jeff has gotta have someone to turn to".

Cammie Copeland vs. Stacy Kiebler

Stacy looked very good in this one as it was evident that she has received some training and gotten herself into ring shape. She hit Cammie with a nice spinning heel kick after countering a hair toss by performing a cartwheel. But Cammie came back with a head scissor takedown after reversing an irish whip. She then hit Stacy with a snap suplex. Cammie went up top looking for a moonsault but Stacy recovered and shoved Cammie off the ropes to the floor. Matt Hardy came running down the aisle as Cammie got onto the apron. Stacy tried to suplex Cammie into the ring but Cammie blocked it and shouldered Stacy in the midsection. Cammie then came back into the ring and hit Stacy with a flying cross body as she bounced off the ropes. But Stacy used Cammie's own momentum to roll on top of her. Matt then held down Cammie's foot from outside the ring and Cammie couldn't kick out as Stacy pinned her.

Match Time: 4:22

Cole:"Well thanks to her boyfriend, Stacy Kiebler has won this match".

Lawler:"You saw Matt give up on Team Xtreme Cole! It's time for him to move on. Wait a minute.....

SUDDENLY JEFF HARDY CAME RUNNING OUT BUT MATT AND STACY HURRIED AWAY.

Cole:"In just ten days, Jeff and Cammie will be able to get their hands on those two and I think it's safe to say Team Xtreme no longer exists King".

"NO CHANCE" BLARES OVER THE LOUDSPEAKERS AS VINCE McMAHON COMES OUT TO SOME HORRENDOUS BOOS.

Lawler:"Oh show some respect you idiots, that's Vince MacMahon"!

Cole:"One can only speculate as to what this is all about King but we're about to find out".

Vince McMahon:"Thank you to all of you for refreshing my memory. Oh yeah, thank you. I forgot what kind of a place Topeka, Kansas really is!

CROWD BOOS.

But I'm out here for one reason and one reason only so Steph, come on out to the ring".

STEPHANIE McMAHON's MUSIC HITS AND SHE COMES OUT.

Cole:"Wait a minute. What the hell is Stephanie coming out here for"?!

Lawler:"Vince left her in charge you idiot, she has every right to be out here"!

Stephanie:"Hello daddy".

Vince:"Hello sweetheart".

Stephanie:"What my dad is trying to tell all you stupid people is that he and I have come up with an escape clause in our contract".

Cole:"What"?

Stephanie:"Ya see, he and I have invested a lot of money in the TWF and we can't stand idly by and watch Rowdy Roddy Piper destroy what we've created"!

Vince:"So immediately following WrestleMania, Steph and I are gonna take our twenty five percent shares in the company and combine them in an effort to run half the TWF the way we want it ran".

Cole:"What are they talking about"?

Vince:"So Piper, you can run the other half your way, but Stephanie and I will have nothing to do with it as we are gonna create our own brand of wrestling. You asked for this Piper and you got it. Now it's time for things to go back to the way they were, at least half the company".

Lawler:"I don't know what to make of this Michael"!

Cole:"What is Mr. McMahon proposing? Apparenly he and Stephanie have come up with a way to combine their shares in the company and overtake one half of it! What will Piper's response to this be"?!

RETURN FROM BREAK... TRAVIS WAKEMAN's DRESSING ROOM....

TRISH IS WATCHING AN OLD EPISODE OF BAYWATCH AND PAMELA ANDERSON IS IN THE SCENE WHEN TRAVIS WAKEMAN ENTERS.

Trish:"Uh, I hate her! I can't believe people think we're alike in any way"!

Travis Wakeman:"Calm down Trish, you've got her in the ring at WrestleMania".

Trish:"I'm just sick of the comparisons to that bitch and at WrestleMania.... well you'll see".

WAKEMAN PULLS A DIAMOND NECKLACE OUT OF HIS PANTS POCKET.

Trish:"Oh my god. Where'd that come from"?

Wakeman:"It fell off Pamela during your fight on RAW. I picked it up without anyone even seeing".

Trish: (takes the necklace) "Well this is what I'm gonna do to Miss Baywatch at WrestleMania".

SHE THEN BREAKS THE NECKLACE INTO SEVERAL PIECES.

Wakeman:"She's got no chance Trish".

CHRISTIAN's MUSIC HITS ALONG WITH HIS GOLD FIREWORKS SHOW AS HE COMES OUT TO A LOT OF BOOS.

Cole:"How disgusting was that King? That necklace was a personal gift to Pamela from Kid Rock".

Lawler:"She brought it on herself Michael and can you imagine WrestleMania, those two rolling around together? Wahoo"!

"BAD BOY 4 LIFE" BY P.DIDDY HITS AS AHMED WALKER COMES OUT TO A GOOD REACTION.

Cole:"Ahmed Walker and Christian, two men who will participate in that battle royale on Free 4 All to determine a number one contender for the Intercontinental title, will go one on one hear tonight and speaking of Free 4 All King, announced earlier today was a tag team turmoil match between most of the tag teams here in the TWF".

Lawler:"Oh yeah, Free 4 All will be live and it will eminate from Fan Axxess in Reno, Nevada and the fans who have tickets to Axxess are gonna be treated to a heck of a good time"!

Ahmed Walker vs. Christian

Walker took control early as Christian came at him but Walker put him down with a drop toe hold. After missing a follow up elbow drop, Walker caught Christian with a samoan drop as he came off the far side ropes. He then whipped him in and hit Christian with a high impact powerslam which drew a long 2 count. Christian poked Walker in the eyes and then used a knee to the abdomen before tossing him through the ropes to the floor. But when Christian went for a flying plancha attack, Walker moved and he slammed into the ringside barricade as the fans in the front row loved it. Walker then went to the top rope and came off with a guillotine legdrop on the floor as the fans began their "Holy shit!" chants. Both men were slow to their feet after one of the most amazing things on TWF tv in awhile. Barely avoiding a count out, Walker slid into the ring and pulled Christian in. Walker continued the attack with some right hands to the head as Christian could hardly stand. He then tried an irish whip to the corner but Christian reversed it. Walker grabbed the top rope and slung himself over the oncoming Christian. Walker then went for a backdrop suplex but Christian flipped off his shoulders and landed perfectly on his feet behind him. Before Walker could react, Christian dropped him with the "Un-Prettier" and got the pin.

Match Time: 7:17

Cole:"What a great match that was however King, at Free 4 All that move won't get Christian a win. It's over the top rope elimination".

Lawler:"I still can't believe that legdrop by Walker off the top rope to the floor. But that shows the resiliency of Christian as he still picked uo the win"!

THE NWO THEME HITS AS CHRIS BENOIT AND NAILS COME DOWN THE AISLE.

Cole:"Well here come two members of the NWO as we are about to get a preview of two big one on one matches at WrestleMania".

Lawler:"This team righ there is a great combination. With Benoit's technical ability and the physical nature of Nails, no one can beat these two".

SABU's MUSIC HITS AS HE COMES OUT TO A HUGE REACTION. LEADING HIM TO THE RING IS BILL ALFONZO.

Cole:"Well this man and his partner are going to give it a shot tonight and listen to the response for Sabu King! Another note we'd like to pass on to you at this time is that for the Chris Benoit/Nemesis match at WrestleMania, Commissioner Piper has barred all members of the NWO from ringside".

Lawler:"I don't see why anyone likes this guy, especially with that idiot Bill Alfonzo with him"!

Cole:"He may not be the most likeable guy King, but much of Sabu's success has to be credited to that man. Wait a minute.... it's Nemesis"!

Nemesis and Sabu vs. Chris Benoit and Nails

As Benoit and Nails focused on Sabu coming to the ring, Nemesis snuck up behind them and Francine was with him as well outside the ring. Nemesis wailed on Benoit before catching Nails with a big clothesline. He then tossed Benoit to the floor and dropped Nails with a shoulder breaker before even removing his trench coat as the crowd was going berserk. The NWO went outside the ring to regroup. Nails decided to go into the ring and Nemesis made the tag to Sabu. Sabu ducked a big right hand and caught Nails with lightning quick kicks to the kidney area before a spin kick to the jaw. Sabu then bounced off the ropes and used a flipping leg drop that caught Nails right across the neck. Sabu made the cover but Benoit came into to make the save. Sabu then whipped Nails into the ropes and went for a spinning heel kick but Nails ducked and drilled him with a hard clothesline before tagging in Benoit. Benoit came in and worked on the lower back of Sabu, using a surfboard stretch and a pendulum backbreaker. After hitting Sabu with 3 straight german suplexes, Benoit went to the top rope but he took a lot of time up there. He finally launched himself off with his diving headbutt but Sabu rolled out of harms way. Sabu then rolled to his corner and tagged in Nemesis who came in and hit Benoit with a few hard right hands to the face. He then whipped him to the corner and followed him in with a clothesline before catching him with a running boot. He went for the cover but Nails came in and stopped the pin. Sabu came into the ring and hit Nails with a headscissor takedown but Nails took a pair of brass knucks out of his pocket while he was on the ground and concealed them well. He then went to hit Sabu but he moved and Nails drilled Benoit! Sabu then hit Nails with a spinning wheel kick that took him out of the ring as Nemesis chokeslammed Benoit. Sabu then went to the top rope and came off with a beatiful corkscrew moonsault that brought the crowd out of their chairs and the 1...2...3 on Benoit.

Match Time: 21:26

Cole:"What a match! These fans love it"!

Lawler:"Well they won't love it at WrestleMania. Nails and Benoit have even more of a reason to destroy these two now"!

Cole:"Wait a minute...look at this"!

AFTER THE MATCH, BILL ALFONZO HELD A STEEL CHAIR IN FRONT OF NAILS' FACE AND SABU USED A SPINNING JUMP KICK, BASHING IT AGAINST NAILS' HOCKEY MASK AS BENOIT WALKED AWAY.

Lawler:"What are these two thinking?! Sabu is gonna have the shortest TWF career on record"!

Cole:"Revenge is sweet tonight for Sabu and Bill Alfonzo but what about Chris Benoit, he just left Nails in the ring"!

PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL... BACKSTAGE....

Lilian Garcia:"Undertaker, earlier tonight we heard of Vince McMahon and Stephanie's plans to split the TWF and run half of it the way they want to. What are your thoughts on this"?

Undertaker:"Ya know Lilian, I could really care less what Vince and that bimbo do, because at WrestleMania, I will once again become TWF champion. I'll worry about who I'm gonna wrestle for after that because truth of the matter is, whether it's Piper or Vince and Stephanie, The Undertaker makes and plays by his own rules".

THE UNDERTAKER WALKS AWAY AS PRIMETIME GOES TO COMMERCIAL....

RETURN FROM BREAK... Piper's Office...

JORDAN ROCKWELL AND LITA COME IN.

Jordan Rockwell:"You wanted to see me"?

Piper:"I sure did. Jordan, I would be lying if I didn't say that the incident at the bar on RAW where you and Steiner got arrested wasn't embarrassing. Now I realize it wasn't your fault, but stuff like that gives the TWF a bad image. So the only decision I can make is for you and Scott Steiner not to have any contact with one another between now and WrestleMania. If you do, the match is off".

Rockwell:"Whatever you say Commish but at WrestleMania, I'm gonna stretch that guy and I'm gonna take that title".

Piper:"Now Lita, I know you're a little anxious to get your hands on Victoria and on Free 4 All from Fan Axxess, I'm gonna allow you to do just that. You and Victoria, one on one".

Lita:"Thank you Commissioner, I can't wait to kick her ass".

ROCKWELL AND LITA WALK OUT BEFORE ROCKWELL COMES BACK IN.

Rockwell:"I'm gonna make the people of Europe proud, count on that one".

"TOO HOT" TAYLOR, HIGH OCTANE AND MOLLY ARE IN THE RING AS "MY LIFE" BY BON JOVI HITS AND DYLAN JANSENS COMES OUT TO A GOOD POP.

Cole:"Here comes the newcomer Dylan Jansens, a man who made a tremendous name for himself at TWF Outbreak against High Octane and the animosity between the two hasn't gone away yet".

Lawler:"He's come to terms with the loss at Outbreak Cole but he's sick of the constant hitting on Molly by Jansens"!

JUSTIN SANE's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GOOD REACTION.

Cole:"He's not hitting on her, he just respects her, something High Octane doesn't. Justin Sane is the number one contender for Scott Taylor's lightheavyweight title and he is scheduled to face him at WrestleMania but you talk about making a name for yourself, what about that backyard match at Code Red King"?

Lawler:"Well there's no doubt that match was amazing, but Justin Sane still lost! Why don't you talk more about a real champion, Scott Taylor"?!

Cole:"I'll give him his due, he's a good champion but I think his time may be up at WrestleMania".

Justin Sane and Dylan Jansens vs. "Too Hot" Taylor and "High Octane" Damion West

This one turned wild early as High Octane slapped Jansens when he said "hi" to Molly and an exchange of right hands occured after Jansens slapped him back. Jansens got the best of the slugfest as he backed High Octane to the corner and gave him several shoulder thrusts to the midsection. After a double underhook suplex, Jansens whipped High Octane into the ropes but High Octane leapfrogged Jansens and caught him with a spinning heel kick after reversing it. He then tagged in Taylor who came in and stomped away on the chest of Jansens before catching him with a flying back elbow after an irish whip. Taylor locked in a reverse chin lock on Jansens as the crowd started to get behind him chanting "Dylan, Dylan, Dylan"!. Finally Jansens got himself to a vertical base and elbowed Taylor three times in the stomach to break his hold. He then used a european hip toss followed by a beautiful dropkick and then he tagged in Sane who came in and the crowd was on their feet as he ddt'ed Taylor and then dropkicked High Octane off the apron. He then used a suicide dive on High Octane and got back into the ring, ducking a clothesline by Taylor and putting him down with an awesome reverse swinging neckbreaker. Sane went for the cover and got 1....2..., but High Octane pulled him out of the ring. Jansens came in and slugged it out with Taylor as Sane whipped High Octane into the ring steps outside the ring. He got back into the ring and he and Jansens hit Taylor with a double suplex. But as referee Jim Korderas tried to get Jansens back to his corner, Taylor low blowed Sane and High Octane blasted him with the "Head on Collision" and covered him as Korderas turned and counted the 3 for the win.

Match Time: 6:42

Lawler:"He got him! That's two straight wins on Justin Sane for High Octane"!

Cole:"I'm begging referee Korderas to wake up! High Octane wasn't even the legal man in the match"!

Lawler:"Oh WrestleMania is gonna be great"!

A WRESTLEMANIA MATCHUP PICTURE APPEARS OF "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN AND VAL VENIS.

EXTREME JAPAN's THEME HITS AS MASA CHONO COMES OUT.

Cole:"And it's getting even better King. Signed earlier today, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, who's gonna face Masa Chono right here tonight, will face Val Venis at WrestleMania and get this.

A MATCHUP PICTURE SHOWING TRIPLE H VS. X-PAC APPEARS.

Triple H will face his former best friend, the man who essentially tried to blind him, in a No Disqualifictaions war".

THE SOUND OS GLASS BREAKING IS HEARD AS "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN COMES OUT TO A TREMENDOUS RESPONSE, THE LOUDEST OF THE NIGHT.

Lawler:"Austin will face Val Venis at WrestleMania but he better be focused on the task at hand tonight, Chono is no pushover"!

Cole:"Triple H and Austin have had their differences in their respective careers but they are in agreement on one thing and that is to take out the NWO, which is why Austin defended the game on RAW. But you're right King, Chono is a mercenary and Austin better be focused on him".

Masa Chono vs. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin

Austin came out on a tear in a match that started very one sided, pounding Chono from one side of the ring to the other. After a hard right hand knocked Chono down in the corner, Austin proceeded to stomp a mudhole in his chest. After an elbow off the middle turnbuckle, Austin whipped Chono in and went for a clothesline but Chono ducked and caught Austin with a back kick to the mouth. He then backed Austin into the corner with some vicious knifedge chops. Chono then went to whip Austin to the opposite corner but Austin reversed it and threw Chono right into referee Mike Chioda. He then picked Chono up and dumped him with a spinebuster. Suddenly, X-Pac and Val Venis came running out and Venis cracked a steel chair across the back of Austin's head and X-Pac delivered the "X-Factor". Chono covered him as Venis got Chioda up to count the 3. As X-Pac and Venis walked up the ramp backwards, "The Game" by Motorhead hit and Triple H came out to a tremendous cheer, similar to Austin's. Triple H attacked X-Pac as Austin came to give him a hand with Venis. Austin and Venis fought into the crowd and out of sight. After a big clothesline by Triple H, he waited for X-Pac to get up and when he did, he slammed the chair over his head as his music hit again.

Match Time: 8:38

Cole:"Triple H has sent a huge statement to X-Pac and at WrestleMania, X-Pac's gonna play the game"!

Lawler:"Is Triple H gonna be okay to wrestle though? The doctor said he should take some time off"!

Cole:"It's gonna be a war and it'll be anything goes! Which one of these former best friends is gonna be able to walk out"?!

STEPHANIE COMES OUT OF HER OFFICE WHEN HOLLYWOOD HOGAN WALKS UP.

Stephanie:"Oh hey Hollywood".

Hollywood Hogan:"Listen Steph, I only have one thing to say. Now I know you're planning on interfering in the title match at WrestleMania but I'm here to tell you that I don't want it".

Steph:"What"?

Hogan:"Yeah, don't bother. I wanna win the TWF Title the right way and tell your father the same thing. I'll talk to ya later".

HOGAN WALKS AWAY AND STEPHANIE LOOKS AT HIM WITH A WEIRD LOOK ON HER FACE.

Stephanie: (to herself) "And you expect to win"?

RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE...

Lilian Garcia:"Commissioner Piper, what are your thoughts on Vince and Stephanie splitting the TWF in half"?

Piper:"Well, there's nothing I can do to stop it, but there's one thing those two need to keep in mind".

Lilian:"And what would that be"?

Piper:"They aren't the only shareholders in the TWF. They're both in for a big surprise on Free 4 All".

ROB VAN DAM's MUSIC HITS AS HE AND TERRI GOLD COME OUT, BOTH WEARING THEIR RESPECTIVE TITLES.

Lawler:"What is Piper talking about? Oh no, he's gonna spoil another big plan isn't he"?!

Cole:"I guess we'll have to wait until PrimeTime to find that out King, but right now, we've got a big mixed gender tag team match".

"MAKE WAY" BY METHOD MAN HITS AS TRAVIS WAKEMAN AND JAZZ COME DOWN THE AISLE TO NUMEROUS BOOS.

Lawler:"Well at WrestleMania, these two are both gonna be wearing more gold".

Cole:"Travis Wakeman was forced to give the UFC belt back, but right now, he technically has the title and that's what he'll be unifying at WrestleMania along with RVD's Hardcore title to create the first ever Toughman championship"!

Lawler:"Well I don't think there's any way Terri Gold can hang with Jazz, she's been on a roll of late".

Travis Wakeman and Jazz vs. Rob Van Dam and Terri Gold

Jazz and Terri Gold started things off as Jazz grabbed her in a side head lock and muscled her down to one knee. Gold powered her way back up and after a few elbows to the gut, Gold freed herself but when she tried to run to the ropes, Jazz yanked her down by the hair. Jazz then dropped a high elevation legdrop across her and got a 2 count. After a hot shot on the top rope, Jazz whipped Gold in and went for a clothesline but Gold ducked and came off the other side. Thinking the same thing, the two women clotheslined each other. Both crawled to their corners and made the tag as Wakeman and Van Dam came in, the crowd coming to their feet as the two men circled one another. Wakeman used a nice amatuer takedown on RVD into an armbar. But RVD shook himself loose and caught Wakeman with a few quick punches. Wakeman threw a kick at RVD but Van Dam caught his leg. With his other leg, he stepped over Wakeman's and used a nice spin kick to the face which drew a 2 count. RVD then hit Wakeman with the Rolling Thunder which drew another 2 count. RVD then went to the top rope for the "5 Star Frogsplash" but at the last second, Wakeman rolled out of the way. Wakeman then locked in the "Round Table" in the center of the ring but Gold came in and kicked him in the ribs, forcing him to relinquich the hold. Jazz came in and tagged Gold with some hard forearm shots as RVD dropped Wakeman with a spinning wheel kick before going up top again. Referee Chad Patton escorted Gold to her corner as Jazz went and swept RVD's legs out from under him, leaving him straddling the top turnbuckle. Wakeman then climbed up with him and brought him off with an overhead belly to belly suplex. RVD landed very awkwardly on his neck and shoulders. Wakeman covered RVD as Jazz held Gold off and got the pin.

Match Time: 17:12

Cole:"Did you see the landing there King? I don't know if RVD is even conscious".

Lawler:"Wakeman was the toughest man tonight, he knocked RVD out"!

Cole:"The situations between these four just grew a lot more intense folks".

"SEXY BOY" HITS AS SHAWN MICHAELS COMES OUT TO A GREAT RESPONSE WITH THE TWF TITLE BELT AROUND HIS WAIST.

Lawler:"Yeah, there's Drew Blood and Goldust. The Rock, Al Snow, Carney, The Body Donnas, The Acolytes, Chuck and Billy, Evolution, Vlad the Impaler, Mr. Perfect, everyone is out here"!

Shawn Michaels:"What a battle of the big men huh guys"?

Cole:"Speaking of big men Shawn, you have to put your title on the line at WrestleMania three in a triple threat against two of the biggest names ever in Hulk Hogan and The Undertaker".

Michaels:"Well there's a reason why they call me the main event Michael, the showstopper. There's a reason why I have this belt right now and both those boys are gonna find that out in just ten days".

Cole:"Strife and Bahamut will defend the tag team titles against probably their biggest challenge to date, The Outsiders but tonight, it's the battle of the seven footers, Strife and Nash".

Lumberjack Match

Strife vs. Kevin Nash

After a staredown in the center of the ring, the two traded punches, trying to knock one other back, but neither would budge. After absorbing a few shots, Nash caught Strife with a kneelift to the lower abdomen. He then hit Strife with some vicious right hands before backing him into the corner. Once there, Nash slammed into Strife with some hard elbows. Nash bounced off the ropes but Strife stuck a big boot in his face. After a hard clothesline, Strife dropped Nash with a sideslam when Scott Hall got on the apron. Strife went and knocked him down as Bahamut went over and gave him some stiff shots to the head. An all out brawl started with the lumberjacks as Drew Blood slammed a trash can over Al Snow's head and then whipped him into the ring steps. Goldust and The Rock traded shots before Rock began to get the better of him, spit in his hand and then punched Goldust into the crowd. After blocking a piledriver attempt on the floor with a backdrop, Al Snow came off the ringside barricade with a flying clothesline on Drew Blood. Strife and Bahamut were in an ugly war with The Outsiders near the front row when The Undertaker came out. He hit Faarooq, Bradshaw, Chuck Palumbo and Billy Gunn all with choke slams as Shawn Michaels threw off his headset and took out both Body Donnas. As The Undertaker and Michaels stared at one another across the ring, Hollywood Hogan appeared in the entranceway. Hogan looked at both men with a very determined look on his face before walking backstage. The Undertaker stepped through the ropes and walked backwards up the ramp as he watched HBK hold the TWF Title up. "Sexy Boy" blared over the loudspeakers as the crowd was deafening.

Cole:"What a way to end PrimeTime folks"!

Lawler:"Oh man Michael, that triple threat at WrestleMania is gonna be amazing"!

Cole:"These three men are ready King, but only one of them can be called a champion in just ten days"!
