going to offer $3,000 to anyone who thinks they can break the Master Lock.
Masters picked someone in a Red Sox hat in the crowd, and I think this he is a
she. Masters looks confused as she got in the ring. Masters asked if he was a he
or a she, because she could easily be both. She said her name is Melissa Coates
and she is from Manchester, NH. Masters said she puts the Man in Manchester.

asked him to do one little thing, and he failed. Trish said for the record, even
if he did take out Kane, she would have never lowered herself to sleep with a
big, fat greasy, chicken eater like him! Trish said she is going to get a real
man to take him out, and then Viscera grabbed her and shook her around in a bear
hug and dumped her on the mat. Viscera went to get out of the ring but stopped
and then smiled, and got back inside and squashed Trish with a Big Splash! The

is a main eventer, he figured he might take this time and address his fellow
main eventers. Christian said he would like to do it in the form of a rap.
On RAW you’ve got Batista with muscle to spare, but he’s got charisma like
Tomko’s got hair.
You’ve got Triple H and Ric Flair, their legend still grows, 26 titles between
them, and the worlds biggest nose.
Have you heard the one about JBL, the rich guy on Smackdown!? I hear his taxes
are still soaring, he’s no wrestling god, just a god of boring.
Hey Cena, you think I’m jealous of your fortune and fame, well you talk like
snoop dog but you look like Corey Haim.
So after the draft, whether it’s RAW or Smackdown!, JR or Michael Cole, I will be
champion, cuz that’s how I roll.
