- He was followed by ECW owner Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley and the mad scientist of sports entertainment, Paul Heyman, who brought their ECW stars out to the ring as well.
- Shane said the face of sports entertainment will forever change this Sunday after Invasion.
- He stated that the World Wrestling Federation has been the best for years, but then again, they have never been faced with such as powerful an alliance as WCW and ECW.

- The Billion Dollar Princess said that her father, Vince, should remember one thing come this Sunday -- she and Shane have no problem playing dirty.
- Cult-like leader Paul Heyman then spoke to the crowd, saying that it was a McMahon family tradition to play dirty.
- He said that Vince had taken this business away from his father, much like Stephanie and Shane were going to do to him.
- He then accused Vince of causing his father's eventual death, which Jim Ross explained was a lie because Vince McMahon Sr. succumbed to cancer in 1984.

- Jericho then asked him if he had heard what he had said about Stephanie on RAW, saying that ECW now stands for "Every Customer Welcome," and that she was the Queen of Hardcore.

- Afterward, Jericho put Patrick in the Walls of Jericho, but DDP came for the save with a steel chair.

- INTERPROMOTIONAL MATCH: Lance Storm vs Christian
- ECW's Lance Storm, seconded to the ring by Mike Awesome, made his way to the ring.
- He grabbed the mic and said that Boston may not be the best city to talk about championships, but the fact that Edge and Christian have held the Federation Tag Team Championship seven times says a lot about the caliber of Superstars that the Federation had to offer.

- Christian hit a spinning reverse DDT and went for the cover, but Awesome pulled his partner out of the ring.
