- KICKOFF: Chris Jericho, Stephanie, The Rock.
- Jericho comes to the ring.
- Jericho says that he'd been hearing a lot of unflattering things about himself over the past few weeks, including that he was a choke artist, that he wasn't a big-time player, and that he couldn't win the big one.
- He said those people were absolutely right, saying that in his years in sports-entertainment, he had never held the World Wrestling Federation or WCW Championships.
- He said that he would get retribution this Sunday at No Mercy, and that all the naysayers could kiss his ass!
- As Jericho continued to talk, out came Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley, who mocked Y2J on her way to the ring, even asking him to please shut the hell up, and welcoming the fans to "SmackDown! is Stephanie!"
- She said that the whole "interrupting" thing Jericho did was actually kinda fun.
- Stephanie then poked fun at Jericho for always losing the big match.
- She said it was a tough decision who to root for in his match against The Rock, but she said she would go with the lesser of two evils, and would root for Rock to clean Jericho's clock at No Mercy!
- She said that although she and Rock hadn't always gotten along, she knew that if he was at SmackDown!, he would come out and thank her for her support.
- It didn't take long for Rock's music to hit, and out came the WCW Champion!
- Rock told Stephanie that she was looking quite gigantic, and then as he continued to talk, Stephanie cut him off.
- She said that Rock shouldn't take his frustration out on her -- he should instead do it on Jericho!
- She said that since Y2J came into the Federation, he had been against The Rock.
- Stephanie then played footage of Jericho's debut in August 1999, when he interrupted The Rock during an interview and tore into the People's Champion.
- Stephanie said that Y2J was jealous of Rock, and that Rock shouldn't trust Jericho, because he would screw Rock the first chance he got.
- Rock said he appreciated her concern, and that if anyone knew anything about screwing, it was her.
- Y2J said it surprised him that Stephanie wasn't cheering for him, because you can't spell Jericho without using the letters "H" and "O."
- Rocky said he wanted Stephanie's support, and said that if he had as much support as her push-up bra gave to her "big phony funbags," then he would be unstoppable!
- Y2J said that speaking of Stephanie's funbags ... but Stephanie cut him off, and screamed that she hated both Jericho and Rock!
- Stephanie then stomped back to the locker room in tears, as Y2J said, "thanks for the mammaries!"
- That left Rock and Jericho in the ring.
- Y2J asked Rock if Rock had anything to say to him, and when Rock asked what, Jericho brought up that Rock had given him a Rock Bottom on RAW.
- Rock said he had given Jericho a Rock Bottom because the People's Champion had told Jericho to stay out of his way, and as usual, Jericho had failed.
- Y2J said he'd gotten in Rock's way to save Rock's title.
- Rock said that later in the night on RAW, he had saved Jericho's ass.
- Jericho said Rock had better worry about saving his own ass this Sunday.
- Rock said he was in no danger of losing his title this Sunday, saying that there was a reason why people said that Jericho couldn't win the big one.
- Rock said that the No. 1 reason was because Jericho wasn't that good.
- Jericho then began to tell Rock that after this Sunday, he would never, ever see the WCW Title again, but Rock delivered the line himself!
- Then, as Rock went to keep speaking, Jericho held his hand up, right in Rock's face!
- Rock took off his sunglasses and stepped away from Jericho's hand, just to have Jericho again move his hand in front of Rock's face.
- Jericho then motioned for Rock to just bring it, and an enraged Rock gave Y2J a Rock Bottom!
- ALLIANCE LOCKERROOM: Stone Cold & The Alliance.
- The Alliance enjoyed a champagne celebration in their locker room.
- Stone Cold said that on Monday night, Rob Van Dam had proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was on the side of the Alliance.
