It’s 9 o’clock and we are
live on RAW with the two final contestants of Tough Enough in the ring with
Stone Cold Steve Austin and Vince McMahon. Vince is about to pick the winner,
and Stone Cold stops him. Austin asks if Vince really thinks he is going to make
the decision. Vince says he is the Chairman of the Board. Austin says he doesn’t
give a rat’s ass about any of that bullshit (which was bleeped) and that it is
his show, and his own decision. Steve is about to announce, but McMahon says
that if he were doing this, there would be a drum roll. Austin actually agrees,
and we get a drum roll. The winner of Tough Enough is… Big Andy!!
Austin asks if Vince would like to offer any words of welcome to Andy. Vince
says welcome to the WWE, and then slaps him in the face! Austin shakes his hand
and says congratulations to the winner, and then hits a Stone Cold Stunner!
“Welcome to the WWE you son of a bitch, and that’s the bottom line cause Stone
Cold said so”. A beer party is about to break out.
R-Truth’s entrance hits, and he is wearing a Civil War outfit. “When Johnny
Comes Marching Home” begins to play, and Truth sings it as a ballad to little
Jimmy. He gets in the ring and Vince shows a clip of last week, and why the GM
is upset. Truth says that he is sorry to Big Jimmy, Little Jimmy, and even to
the soda he wasted. He’s sorry, he’s sorry, he’s sorry. Austin says he should be
sorry for the outfit he is dressed in. Truth says that he is dressed that way
because he is in Richmond, Virginia. This is where the Confederate States of
America was founded by redneck idiots. Austin says that happened a long time
ago, what is Truth’s point. Truth says that while nothing good ever came out of
the South, they did have one good idea. Secession. Tonight, R-Truth is seceding
from the WWE Universe. He’ll keep the Title Match, but he won’t do any T-shirts,
videogames, or anything else. He has been the victim of a companywide
conspiracy. Vince says let me tell you something ‘R’, and asks if that is his
real first name. Truth confirms that it is. Vince says that his office hours are
from 9am to Midnight. Vince says that Austin knows them very well. Vince hints
that maybe Truth could get his answers from someone other them himself. Austin
perhaps?
The Miz’s music hits and he comes out to the ring. He blames Alex Riley for his
failings and looks to take advantage of the fact that the Chairman of the Board
is currently in the ring. He says that everyone knows he deserves one last
Championship match.
Alex Riley’s music hits and he comes down to the ring claiming that the only
thing Miz deserves is another beat down. John Cena’s music hits, and he also
joins the ring. He gives a quick recap of the situation. Cena says that he made
Miz say the words I quit repeatedly, so he will not give him another shot at the
Title. He tells him to get over himself. Cena tells Riley that he doesn’t like
him, and doesn’t trust him, BUT over the past couple of weeks he has actually
stepped up and gone after The Miz, which Cena can appreciate. Cena then moves on
to Truth. He says that clearly somebody dressed like Truth and acting like him
is completely sane. Dropping the sarcastic banter, he tells Truth to take off
the ridiculous garb, because they will be having their match at Capitol
Punishment.
*GeneralMail Alert
