The show opens minutes early with Steve Austin, Luke and Andy in the ring to crown the new "Tough Enough" winner. Vince McMahon's music and he heads to the ring. He asks for a big hug from Austin and Austin asks him, "how about a stunner instead?" McMahon asks Like and Andy what makes them think that they deserve to be in the same ring as Shawn Michaels, Andre the Giant, Sgt. Slaughter and Austin. Andy starts by saying that he "guaran-damn-tees" and McMahon cuts him off right there. Luke then says he should win. McMahon says he's going to pick the TE champion. Austin tells Vince that TE is his show and he'll pick a winner, not Vince. Vince tells him to go ahead and suggests a drumroll, and Austin obliges. he drumroll beats as Austin goes back and forth between Andy and Luke. Austin then proclaims "Big Andy" the winner, which I consider an upset.

Austin then proceeded to ask for beers in the ring and Vince was going to join him. Cue R-Truth.

Truth comes out to "when Johnny comes marching home" and dressed like a Civil War soldier. Truth started saying that the RAW GM wanted to apologize, and Vince says let's show why the GM wants him to apologize and they replay the angle for last week. Truth apologizes to "Big Jimmy" and "Little Jimmy" and says "I'm sorry" multiple times. Austin then asked Truth to apologize for "dressing like a jackass."

Truth said that they were in Richmond, where they formed the Confederate States of America. Austin said it was 150 years ago, what does that have to do with today. Truth said the Confederacy had one good idea... secession. Truth said he's seceding from the WWE Universe. He said he'll keep the WWE title match, but he won't participate in any video games, merchandise, etc. He said he's been a victim of a conspiracy, and asks Vince if he's right.
