-JR and the King welcome us to Raw! We will see Cena and Orton vs. THE ENTIRE RAW ROSTER tonight.
~THE HIGHLIGHT REEL~
Welcome to Raw is Jericho! First of all he needs to introduce his first guest, the sexy Intercontinental Championship! Cause last week he became the 8-time IC Champion, which is better than the pervious record holder, which was also him! Damn he's good. His second guest is the man that will face Floyd Mayweather at WrestleMania, The Big Show!
Big Show makes his way to the ring and is welcomed by Jericho. Jericho says thanks for the new clip of Mayweather flying through the air. We go to the insanely expensive JERITRON 6000…IN HD to see the footage. Show is rather proud of himself, and says that the clip proves that no one likes Mayweather. No one in the locker room, none of his peers, no one here likes him either. Show says Jericho is a star, out weights Mayweather and is highly skilled. But Jericho wouldn't last 2-minutes with Show, so what chance does Mayweather have? Jericho says that is interesting, but everyone thinks that Show is a jackass. Jericho reminds Show is talking to Chris Jericho, the first Undisputed Champion ever, and the man that will win MITB, while Show will be looking for his teeth. Show says he touched a nerve, and that Jericho is like Mayweather; loud, arrogant, disrespectful and in over his head. Show challenges Jericho for the IC Title, tonight. Show says Jericho looks like he is going to sing karaoke with Justin Timberlake, but then again his singing is horrible. Jericho says Show has been bombing for 8-years, and if Show wants the match, he got it for the IC Title tonight…JUNIOR~!
-JR says that Mr. McMahon made an announcement earlier today. We go to the clip, and Vince says he is the biggest star of them all and got his star on the Hollywood walk of fame. He'll be on Larry King Wednesday. WWE stock is up, he squats 700lbs, a grandfather, and tonight he celebrates St. Patrick's Day by ending Ric Flair's career! Flair will face Vince tonight, and he knows HBK will be upset because he will retire Flair. He made the edict, and he will be the man to end it all. IN A STREET FIGHT!
-We get a commercial for the HHH DVD.
