Maria is backstage with Triple H. She said last night in the Rumble he was number one and lasted over an hour, and came close to winning before being eliminated by Rey Mysterio. Triple H said hes sure Rey would say he went 60 minutes and eliminated the Game. He said he met 29 other guys coming through the ropes head on, and handed them their ass. He doesnt buy Rey winning. He said even <B><A href="/v2/wi/stc/pgs/wrestlers_eddie_guerrero.s "><B>Eddie Guerrero</B></A></B> couldnt pull something off this big; this had to come from somewhere higher than <A href="/v2/wi/stc/pgs/wrestlers_eddie_guerrero.s ">Eddie Guerrero</A>. He said his shot at WrestleMania is gone. He cant take it out on God, <A href="/v2/wi/stc/pgs/wrestlers_eddie_guerrero.s ">Eddie Guerrero</A> or Rey Mysterio, but he can take it out on the next best thing tonight. He said Chavo Guerrero better pray to whoever it was that helped Rey Mysterio last night, because hes going to need it!
