Stephanie is here to talk about HHH. Stone Cold is standing behind Stephanie. WHAT WHAT WHAT.
The Rock vs. Chris Jericho
It starts with Jericho yapping away and he gives Rock the hand! Stealing his opponent's taunt! What nerve.
Jericho's really controlling the pace here. Rock fights off some chops but Jericho's still hitting some kicks. And off goes the turnbuckle cover.
Long sleeper hold and Rock finally with some sustained momentum coming out of it. But Jericho gets a bulldog and lionsault. And he goes for one more, hits this lionsault too! Rock kicks out of the cover.
Jericho wants to argue with Hebner, Rock has an opening and gets on the sharpshooter. Wait, out runs Lance Storm. Jericho's tapping but Hebner's occupied. And out comes Christian, all the Canadians are here. Rock bottom on Rock! Rock kicks out!
And now Jericho wants to do a people's elbow. Rock with a kip up to stop it though.
Both tables cleared off, Jericho wants to rock bottom Rock through the spanish table, Rock counters and puts Jericho through the main table.
Jericho kicks out of the cover in the ring. Walls of Jericho are on! Rollup and a two count.
Oh no, Hebner's down and Jericho knocks out Rock with a belt. Nick Patrick runs in to ref now.
Rock with a DDT and cover, Patrick is gonna be biased now and he doesn't count the cover. Rock knocks out Patrick, and a people's elbow on Jericho. No ref to count again.
Hebner's coming to, Rock gets thrown into the exposed turnbuckle and Jericho does a rollup with his feet on the ropes. Hebner counts the cover! Jericho keeps his belts through every heel tactic he could think of.
WWF New York! Shawn Michaels is there, can't send an active wrestler to NY on Royal Rumble night with that thin roster. He wants Taker and Austin to win because he wants Texans to win. Guess Bradshaw's not in the rumble?
