PROMO TIME – The Coach
He talks about last week and how he wanted to book Cena v Rated RKO on Backlash but Michael Pena, the Make-A-Wish kid, over ruled him. But he got his way anyway because that handicap match will take place here tonight. Lawler acts surprised despite this being announced on WWE.com. Read the website Jerry! He brings out Vince McMahon with his fedora of power. Vince's limbs are totally out of control on the POWERWALK~! The crowd chant stuff at him, which he doesn't understand. He says he gets better receptions in every other city in the world. He says that Milan is the fashion capitol of the world but looks at the crowd and doesn't think much of the fashion. He brings out UMAGA. His music has really grown on me btw. Vince plays clips from last week and how Umaga gave Lashley a beatdown. Vince regretfully informs us Shane isn't here tonight. He apparently thinks Italians smell too bad. Lashley also isn't here because of the beating he took last week and customs happened to stop him on the way over and sent him back where he came from. He offers an open challenge to anyone in the locker room to take on Umaga. No one comes out so Vince puts the IC title on the line. Still no one so Vince opens it up to the audience. Umaga starts getting a bit worked up. Vince says that anyone who steps in here gets destroyed. He looks around for a victim and picks on a little kid who promptly hides behind his Dad. Awesome. He picks out a plant instead. Crowd seems happy with the choice. Vince gets confused again as to what the crowd is singing and tells them to shut up, which is greeted with whistles and boos. Vince makes the plant agree to not sue the WWE if he gets his legs broken. The plant's name is Santino Marella. Now you KNOW it's a plant because he has Gorilla Monsoon's surname. Crowd chants "Santino". Santino has awesome tattoos. Vince says that Santino represents all these fans out here.
IC title – UMAGA (c) v SANTINO MARELLA
Santino hits and moves and gets a cheeky roll up for 2. Vince doesn't like that and jumps in the ring and makes this a No Holds Barred match. Estrada slaps Santino but Santino slaps back. Umaga sees an opening and lays the guy out and drops the leg. Estrada gets a receipt on that slap. Umaga sets up the corner splash off the ropes and they're getting some serious heat for this. Umaga goes up again but LASHLEY runs in there and slams Umaga off the top. Remember this is no holds barred so this is all legal. Lashley lays out Estrada. Vince comes in with a chair but that's blocked. Umaga is up. Chair shot! Umaga is still up. "OOOOOOOOOHHHHHH" – Milan before each chair shot. Umaga survives three but gets speared and Santino pins for the win at 4.23.
