Backstage:

Eric Bischoff was shown backstage with The Coach and Eric Bischoff told him that he looks like he's ready but he has to point out one thing. Eric has done his job and got rid of William Regal; he will not be at ringside. So The Coach has to get rid of Eugene once and for all. The Coach told Eric not to worry about it, it's done. Eric said that he's sick and tired of Eugene, he's an embarrassment and tonight, he wants Coach to get rid of him. Coach started to leave but then he came back and pointed out something to Eric Bischoff. Coach laughed but Eric didn't seem too happy. Eugene showed up and he looked to be upset. Eric asked what the problem is? How much of that did he hear? Eugene sadly said "You don't like me, Uncle Eric." Eric tried to explain that's not what he said. Uncle Eric is just trying to protect him. Look at it this way; who is Eugene's favorite wrestler? Triple H. Does Eugene remember when he broke that big muscle in his leg and couldn't walk? That could happen to Eugene. Eugene said his legs are fine, he can walk. Eric said he knows that, but how about Chris Benoit? He broke his neck. That could happen to Eugene and he doesn't want that to happen. Eric said he's going to give Eugene a choice; call off the match and Eugene can get on an airplane and tell all of his friends that he was in the WWE. Or he can go out there tonight and wrestle. What's it going to be? Eugene happily said that he wants to wrestle! He can wrestle!

Backstage:

Todd Grisham was shown with Randy Orton and Todd said it's obviously a huge night for Randy Orton and Evolution because later tonight, Randy defends the Intercontinental Title. Randy interrupted Todd, asking him what tomorrow marks? Tomorrow marks the half year anniversary that he has been the Intercontinental Champion. He has had the longest reign of anyone in the last seven years and he left Mick Foley in a pool of his own blood. He beat him at his own game. Granted, Shelton Benjamin is a better athlete than Mick Foley but there is something that Shelton Benjamin doesn't have that Randy has and that is greatness. Randy took exception to the fans, asking if they're booing him because he's done more than anyone in that arena at his age, so don't test him because he will come out there. The fans continued to boo and Randy Orton told the camera man to follow him because he is going out to the arena. Randy said that if the fans want to boo him, he'll come out early and they can have it their way. Get a look at greatness. Randy told the fans that you're looking at the man that ended Mick Foley's career and spit in Mick Foley's face. The fans have their jobs and sure they work hard for that raise and work hard to become the employee of the month. That's greatness to them but the Intercontinental Title is real greatness and you're looking at real greatness. That's just his point; there are millions of people like the fans out there. And that's his point is that Randy Orton is one in a million. Randy Orton went through the crowd to get to the ring and he said that greatness has entered the ring and the fans may now bow. About his match with Shelton Benjamin, Randy Orton wants the respect that he deserves from each and every one of them. He wants them to stand up on their feet and respect Randy Orton because he is Randy Orton and he is the living legend. Randy Orton got on the ropes and he said as well as the Intercontinental Champion, thank you very much.
