Michael Cole says that Edge and Christian have been challenged, but don't know
by whom. Christian says that they might not be in a great mood because they
showed up and found out that they are in one of the toughest matches of their
career. This may be SmackDown Xtreme, but c'mon! Edge says it will be OK, but
says this might be their last night. He says this might be the greatest
challenge in their life, the challenge of... Kaientai! Taka says that their

Tazz vs. Chris Jericho
The Y2J Countdown hits 00, and out comes the Ayatollah. He says that Y2J knows
extreme, so tonight, he is offering an open, extreme challenge for the IC belt,
right now. He goes over different possible challengers, all of whom have extreme
facial features. But instead, Tazz comes down. He says that there is no doubt
that Jericho is extremely funny, but tonight ain't about fun, and compared to
Tazz, he knows nothing about being extreme. So he accepts the Title shot, and
Jericho will soon be just another victim. They lock up and roll around the ring.

The Kat Interview
The Kat comes out on stage. She says that everyone is making a big deal about
this being SmackDown Xtreme. There is First Blood, table matches, but there are
other ways of taking things to the limit. There are other ways to be extreme,
and just as exciting, just as hardcore, and just as exhilirating. THat is where
she comes in. We know there isn't anything she wouldn't do to get a rise out of
the crowd. She knows what turns men on, and she knows what men want to see, and
seeing as tonight is about beind Xtreme, she plans on bringing extreme to a new
level, by showing everyone what they are dying for... Full Frontal Nudity! The
strip music hits. She takes off the shoes, the pants, but just as she unties her
strap, the RTC jump out and cover her in a bathtowel. Richards sends them off,
and starts going off on everyone. He says there are children in the audiance. He
used to blame the WWF for their behavior, but the people will no longer hide
behind their ignorance. Don't we realize they are helping us. The RTC now blames
each and every one of the fans. His voice gets very low, and he says that if we
want extreme, we will see extreme and it will be for our own good.
Kevin Kelly asks Rock about having Triple H in the Title Match. Rock has seen what has gone on.

He says that there is nothing bigger than WrestleMania, and he will do all he can to go headline WM as Champ. He tells Angle to go get some pictures of his belt taken so we don't have to look at his white ass when he doesn't have the belt around it. If ya smell what he's cooking. Commercial.

Lillian Garcia asks Kurt Angle about Triple H being added to the Title match. Angle says he wasn't surprised, but why stop there? Why not add Big Show, and Benoit, and the whole state of Kansas? Or put the match in a shark tank? He says he knows the WWF wants him to lose his title, but everyone will leave this arena like Rock and Triple H will, like depressed losers.
Highlights of Kane in the Rumble.
Kevin Kelly asks Taker and Kane about getting the match they asked for. Taker says that Monday was a Taker that noone thought they'd see, the Taker that simply kicks ass.
