-Live from HP Pavilion in San Jose, CA

-Mr. McMahon is out to start the show, and says if his friend Donald Trump was here tonight he'd be giving away the show for free and not having commercials. Vince asks the crowd if they want him to do the same thing, but he says he needs commercials to make money. He says can give them their moneyback however, but he's not going to. He says Trump even orchestrated a fifteen superstar trade between ECW, Smackdown, and Raw that he has to live with. He says Trump also came up with this guest host idea that he has to live with. So I guess all of Trump's decisions were final, and irreversible. That's some contract. Vince announces that tonight he's going to have a guest host who will shake things up, and introduces Batista as the guest host for the evening. Yes, that Batista. Batista says he's excited, and we're going to have some fun tonight. Batista announces a four man Night of Champions tournament to determine Orton's challenger for the PPV. Batista announces the matches as Miz vs. Cena and MVP vs. HHH. Batista says when Vince first asked him to do this he said no way, because he's a fighter not a guest host. Before he can finish his thought Legacy comes out, and in a stunning upset they are all wearing shirts! Orton tells him he shouldn't have come back, and asks if he's a glutton for punishment. Orton asks what he thinks is stopping them from coming down and tearing the rest of him apart. Batista says nothing is stopping them, except for that they even look at him the wrong way he'll fire all three of them. Batista says he wasn't ready to come back until he was ready to fight, but Vince promised him unlimited power. He can do anything he wants which means he can make Orton's life a living nightmare. Orton reminds him that it already is a nightmare. He barely survived three stages of hell after getting hit with a sledgehammer. Batista makes crying noises, and again gives the folks over at the Wrestlecrap forums the gift that keeps on giving with a whining face that is sure to give them lots of photoshopping fun for this week. Batista says he's not going to make Orton defend his title tonight, but he needs to worry about the trade that Trump made before he was fired. He says Raw acquired five new superstars, but Batista is only going to make him face three of them in a 3 on 1 gauntlet match. Batista says he knows how much Orton likes 3 on 1 fights so its about time he found out what its like to be on the other side of one.
