-Rob Van Dam vs. Lance Storm
 

Eric Bischoff's music hits, and the Raw General Manager limps down the ramp, right leg seemingly unbending and left arm in a sling. Despite Stone Cold's actions last night, Bischoff is still standing. And if you think that we're going to see a triumphant Stone Cold tonight, think again, because he has been barred from the building. It's a shame that he'll miss tonight's Main Event, a 20-man Over The Top Battle Royal to determine the Number One Contender for Triple H's Title at WrestleMania!

Stone Cold isn't here tonight because Bischoff wants the spotlight on a bigger star, the biggest star in the WWE, the biggest star in the history of this industry. A video of a helicopter's flyover plays, finally flying over a building which emits light that fades into the face of...

The Rock! The Rock comes out, with new video and music. He surveys the crowd and then walks into the Raw ring, to a mixed reaction to say the least.

Finally, The Rock has come back to Toron... Toron... To run his mouth on all our candy asses. The Rock is on Raw because last night, The Rock did Vince McMahon a favor by whipping the red and yellow candyass. Vince then did The Rock a favor by granting Rock anything he wanted, and Rock said he wanted to go on Raw in Toronto. It was here in Toronto that it all started. The biggest travesty in the industry went down right here, when the People turned on the People's Champion. Last year at WrestleMania, 68,000 mothercanuckers turned on him. Did you think The Rock was just going to forget? It doesn't matter what the people think!

There is one thing that bothered The Rock more than that. At Raw's Tenth Anniversary, the people didn't vote for The Rock as Superstar of the Decade. They voted for Stone Cold Steve Austin. Everybody loves Stone Cold. The Rock doesn't love Stone Cold. As a matter of fact, Stone Cold Steve Austin is nothing, and The Rock means nothing, compared to The Rock. There is only one true Superstar of the Decade, one Superstar of the Millenia: the jabroni-beatin, pie-eatin, trail-blazin, eyebrow-raisin, better than any Canuck, hottest thing to hit Canada because the Maple Leafs suck!

If you don't believe that, then believe this: The Rock is going to come into the big Battle Royal tonight, whip some ass, and become the World Champion at WrestleMania. If ya smell what the Rock--Rock stops and tells everyone that they have lost their sing-along privilege.Canada can take all their boos and shove them straight up their maple syrup sucking asses--is cooking.
