Opening sequence.
Billy and Chuck/Albert vs. Maven/Al Snow/Rikishi
Stacy Keibler, looking very good in blue, bends over just as Hulk Hogan opens his door. Vince wants to see Hogan right now so Hulk follows her with his eyes clearly panning down.
Kidman and Hurricane make fun of Planet Stasiak but Kidman says no one knows who he is. Hurricane has an idea: CHEAP POPS! So now the writers are making fun of the fact that no one cares about the Cruiserweight Title? I mean, no one does but still.
Chavo Guerrero Jr./Tajiri vs. Kidman/Hurricane
Post match Tajiri kicks Kidman in the head and yells at Torrie in Japanese.
Test vs. Faarooq
Test kicks Faarooq in the face.
Hardcore Holly wants to beat Page up because he likes destroying positivity. Page comes in and smiles but says the anger is ticking him off.
Diamond Dallas Page vs. Hardcore Holly
Angle and Jericho are in the back and Kurt gets annoyed at Jericho saying Angle would suck the life out of Hogan. Kurt is so mad that he keeps leaving and coming back to yell more.
Chris Jericho/Kurt Angle vs. HHH/Hulk Hogan
Edge fights Jericho and Angle off, leaving HHH to chair Hogan to end the show.
