Vengeance Kicks Off: Vince McMahon & Ric Flair.

World Wrestling Federation co-owner Vince McMahon sauntered to the ring as Vengeance kicked off, and he didn't seem to be a happy man.
Vince said that for the record, last Thursday on SmackDown! he wasn't about to kiss anyone's ass.
He said there was no one big enough or bad enough to make him kiss ass.
He said he was going to take care of business, but Stone Cold Steve Austin had showed up on the TitanTron and beat the hell out of Kurt Angle, and threated to beat him if he left the ring!
He said his partner, Ric Flair, had come to the stage and said no one could interfer, under fear of suspension.
Mr. McMahon said that Rock then took advantage of him, shoving his face into Rikishi's posterior!
Mr. McMahon called it the most humiliating experience of his life.
He said the people had laughed at him, as if watching a cartoon or a comedy skit.
He couldn't believe the fans had laughed at Vince McMahon.
He said it was wrong to laugh at the misfortunes of billionaires.
He said the fans would laugh when he told them to laugh, and if they remember nothing else for the rest of the night, they should remember this: He who laughs last, laughs loudest.
Suddenly, out came Vince's partner -- Ric Flair -- to a huge ovation!
The Nature Boy said he hoped he had seen the last of Vince tonight, because the people wanted to see Vengeance!

But as a WWF referee, she wouldn't take sides.
