We get the "World is Watching" video. Your shoddy ratings beg to differ.

We are then treated to the conclusion of last week's show, Vince McMahon falling victim to scaffolding that was mad because Triple H got drafted.

Shane McMahon addresses the incident. In respect of his privacy, they will not be forthcoming with an update on his condition. He wants the employees to pull together in this time of uncertainty.

Cue intro, cue crazy ass pyro and welcome to Monday Night Raw: the Michael Cole era!

Michael Cole and Jerry "The King" Lawler are our hosts.

Jim Ross is here! Oklahoma's own, didn't you know. He's amazed by the ovation ad thanks the crowd. It is an honor to be standing in the ring on this night with the fans around the world watching to say, it's damn sure good to be home. He's excited about a new journey that he is embarking on SmackDown. Boos for that. He hopes that the fans will join him on that journey, where they will raise hell and take it places it has never been before. He's excited about working with Mick Foley, the Hardcore legend, and he also wants to thank his "older brother" The King. Going into the Hall of Fame with him made that moment even more special. The good news is, Michael Cole will do a great job on Raw. Boos for that too. JR and Cole have always been friends and he wants them to give Cole respect. He brings up seeing his first live match featuring Danny Hodge, he brings up Mid-South Wrestling, and his experiences here in OC have involved Mr. McMahon. He's proud to be here tonight despite Mr. McMahon and his situation. He wants the fans to join him on Friday nights. It's been an amazing run. It's good to be home, he's excited, he thanks us all and he encourages them to eat more barbeque…

Edge is here with Hawkins and Ryder. Edge got drafted? No, I didn't think so either. Edge says he had to make an appearance at this farewell address because his arrogance never ceases to amaze him. What makes JR think that anyone gives a damn about him, or the Sooners? No cares about King or Cole, or JR, and they never did. "Why don't you put that in your blog, barbeque boy?" Ha. But now he can truly start his Hall of Fame career by coming on to Edge's show, where he can call Edge's Hall of Fame career. Edge mocks the Stone Cold line and says from now on it'll have to be "Edge wins! Edge wins! Edge wins!" JR tosses the mic down. Edge says to put that in the record books, JR is actually speechless. Edge tells Hawkins and Ryder to escort JR from the building and they do. Edge steals Chris Jericho's "hit the bricks" line. He did have an ulterior motive for coming here. He wanted to point out that the flagship show is missing a few things. Like a General Manager, unlike SmackDown which has the greatest GM in the history of the business, the love of his life, Vickie Guerrero. They're also missing The Undertaker. But then, so is the entire WWE because Edge banished him from the WWE. You're welcome. And there's one other thing the show doesn't have… a world champion. And he wanted to let everyone here know that they will never have a shot at his World Heavyweight Championship. They can challenge Triple H if they want, but unless it's a Draft show, you will never see him on Monday nights again.
