A video putting over last night s Summerslam aired.
WWE Champion Edge s music hit the arena and he came out to the ring minus his championship belt. Edge said he had waited for this night his entire life. He said everyone bought tickets tonight thinking he wouldn t be WWE Champion, but they were wrong. He said despite overwhelming odds stacked against him, he emerged from Summerslam victorious. He said he was still our WWE Champion.
He asked if he was the champion, where was his championship belt and where was his lovely companion Lita? Lita popped up on the titan tron and she had the title belt out in the harbor near the arena. Edge asked her to get rid of the last remnants of Cena and she obliged by tossing the WWE title belt into the nearby river.
Edge said it was time for a new era, the Rated R era. With that some smoke poured from the ceiling and from it, Edge pulled what was Cena s old spinner belt, except with a rated R logo in the place of the old WWE logo. He asked if there were any real challengers out there to his title.
Jeff Hardy s music played and he came out to the ring. Edge ran up one side and down the other calling him and his brother talent-less and that if he wasn t careful, he d ruin Jeff s career much like he did Matt s. Jeff took a swing, flooring the champion and then a nice corkscrew dropkick to put him on his back. Jeff climbed the ropes looking for a Swanton, but Edge rolled out of the ring and ran off to the back. Jeff played to the crowd a little more to end the segment.

8-Man Tag Match
The Spirit Squad v. Eugene, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, and the Highlanders
The Odd Squad and the Highlanders attempted to storm the ring, but were cut off by the Squad. Johnny and Eugene traded arm bars before Johnny took the advantage by bullying Eugene to the corner and hitting some kicks to the guy. He whipped Eugene to the opposite buckles and missed the follow up. Eugene hit an airplane spin before tagging in Robby who hit a drop kick and caught a near fall.
Mikey distracted Robby enough to enable Johnny to hit a drop kick and tag in Kenny who hit a leg drop on his way in for a near fall. Kenny hit a spinning wheel kick and went for another cover but again got two. Mikey tagged in and hit a springboard moonsault with the help of Kenny for yet another near fall.
Mikey immediately clamped in a rear chin lock on Robby before bullying him to the corner. Robby tried to fight his way out of the corner but numbers were not in his favor. Mikey tagged in Nicky who hit a nice leap from forearm to the face of Robby.
Nicky put in a neat looking hold that raked Robby s eyes before gathering him and tagging Kenny back in. Kenny landed some punches and followed them up with some stomps and an elbow drop. Kenny pressed his advantage, hitting a swinging neck breaker. Jim Duggan attempted to knock the now-top-rope perched Kenny but was fought off. Kenny went for the leg drop off the top but he missed.
Rory tagged in and began to clean house with clubbing blows and a nice shoulder based back breaker. Eugene and Hacksaw jumped in and chaos ensued. Rory was left in the ring with two members of the Spirit Squad. One was yanked out by Robby who quickly leapt into the ring. The Highlanders nailed Mikey with a springboard inverted suplex and Rory made the cover for the win.
Winners: The Highlanders, Eugene, and Jim Duggan via pin fall
Edge was in the back and pounding on Vince McMahon s door. He walked in and Coach was inside. Edge said he didn t want Jeff Hardy to make an impact at his expense. Coach asked him if he wanted to defend his title tonight. Coach said the boss gave him a little leeway and said that he d get Jeff Hardy in a non-title match tonight. Coach went back to work just as Vince walked in. He asked if DX had showed up tonight. Coach said they hadn t and resumed working out. Vince said he was in a foul mood and told Coach to get out.

He said last night Hogan getting his hand raised was cool. Orton said at least he was on the show and he wasn t anything more than an apple. He demanded more respect from Carlito next time he interrupted his interview.
Triple H was reading a magazine and said we were probably wondering where he was after overcoming the McMahon s plan last night. They said they couldn t help but see Vince s plane following up overhead as they were driving to Bridgeport today. HBK did a plane Schick. Triple H said they came to a private air terminal and said they had to see it for themselves. They said there was a little bit of an incident that took place.
The cameras cut to Triple H and HBK in Vince s private jet. HBK accidentally scratched the plane s paint and Triple H admonished them for it.

We came back to Raw with McMahon eagerly awaiting the arrest of DX. We panned to Triple H and HBK not at the airport, but at WWE headquarters who were on the top of the building. They gave a little schpiel before revealing a giant DX grafitti mark on the side of the WWE building. Vince looked like he was going to have a heart attack.
Vince slowly walked away from the ring as the chants chanted goodbye to him. Vince started to almost cry as he walked up the ramp.

The Kiss My Ass club is next!
****Commercial****
McMahon was back in utter lunacy. He called Foley out and said this was the first time he ever saw someone bring a date to the Kiss My Ass Club. Foley said he wouldn t kiss Vince s ass. He said he loved the WWE and his job but he didn t need it. He said maybe people didn t notice, but he saved a fortune on haircuts, a used mini van, and his flannel shirts. He said McMahon couldn t fire him.
McMahon said he never said he was going to fire Foley, but it would be someone . He said Melina would get fired if Foley didn t kiss his ass. He asked Foley what it was going to be. Foley said nobody was worth kissing Vince s ass, except Melina. Vince got ready to do his deal.
Melina stopped Foley and pleaded with him to not do this. Foley said he had his career and that Melina had an entire career ahead of her. He said this was a small price to pay for her friendship. He said he d kiss McMahon s ass, go to the store, buy a bottle of mouthwash and a bigger bottle of hard alcohol. Foley screamed at McMahon demanding he take his pants down. McMahon obliged.
Foley kissed his ass and further admonished him. Foley jaw jacked with McMahon some more before Melina low blowed him and left him on the mat. McMahon said just like DX, they had two words for him, and Melina took the mic and said You re Fired . Foley looked like he was going to cry.
McMahon gloated on his way up the ramp. Vince congratulated Foley on joining the club. He walked off to the back talking about his aschles and the different ass-handling he d received over the years. Vince said he and Shane were going to forget all about last night.
Vince left the arena and then handed off the mic. He stepped to the outside. He said DX may have broken him. Vince complained about the HQ and the plane. Vince said they were going to go to the hanger and see the plane. Vince admonished the limo driver for not wearing a tie. The limo drove away but there was a chain attached to the back wheels and when the car went forward, the wheels came out from under the car. The driver went to check on the two as they fumbled out of the door. Vince didn t realize what had happened at first until he saw the DX painted on the opposite side of the limo. Vince went nuts kicking the car and screaming. Vince eventually broke down crying.
