Mean Gene:  I am standing in the ring with none other than Chris Benoit.  
Chris, we just saw you interfere in the Sandman/Shawn Michaels match.  Can
you explain this?  

Benoit:  Gene, it's not like me to interfere like this.  It is ALSO not like
me to miss a match.  You see, I walked out of my hotel Monday night to
get in my car and drive to the arena.  Only problem was, my car wouldn't start.
After investigating this matter, I found out that sand was in the gas
tank.  SAND, Gene.

(the crowd boos)

Doesn't take a scholar to figure that one out.  I put two and two together.
I know you are behind this Sandman.....

(Steve Austin walks out...the crowd goes crazy...)

Steve Austin:  Let me get this straight.  You're damn car had sand in 
the gas tank?  I wonder if the same jackass did that to MY car Monday!

Gene:  You mean to tell me that BOTH of your cars had...

(BAM BAM Bigalow walks out...)

BAM BAM:  NO.....ALL THREE OF OUR CARS HAD SAND IN THE GAS TANK!!  At least 
THESE two made it for the Battle Royal.  I didn't even get what was promised 
to me.  My shot at the World Title was ruined.  I want WWA President
Jimmy Fulp out here NOW!!

(Jimmy Fulp makes his way to the Interview area.)

Jimmy:  Am I hearing this right?

Austin:  Hell Yeah you heard right, jackass.  Now, what are we going to
do about it?

Jimmy:  I need to see Hollywood Hogan out here at this time.

(The crowd boos)

Hollywood makes his way to Jimmy, Austin, Benoit, BAM BAM, and Mean Gene)

Hogan:  Boss, I'm here.

Jimmy:  As of this moment...I declare that the WWA title is VACANT!

(Hogan is FURIOUS!!)

Jimmy:  I also demand that in place of the Hart/Hogan match, a match 
will take place tonight between BAM BAM and Hollywood Hogan for the World
Title.  BAM BAM was promised his fair shot, and didn't get it.

(Bret Hart comes out from the back.  The crowd cheers!)

Bret:  Hold on just a second....You are going to give MY title shot away?
You can't do this to me!!  I was promised a shot at this belt...And I
want it!!

Jimmy:  Hear me out....Bret Hart will take on the winner of the BAM BAM
Hollywood Hogan Match for the World Title one week from today!

(the crowd erupts)

As for the Sandman....further investigation will be needed.  If I find out
that YOU were behind all of this, I will make sure that some sort of 
punishment is administered.

Benoit:  If I don't get to him first!!!!!

Mean Gene:  Let's get back to the action!!!!
