EXPLOSIONS ROCK the Civic Center in El Paso, Texas!!! Streaking fireworks SCREAM across the sky, lighting up the stands where fans are going wild!!! A Get Well LOD sign is shown. SID RULES THE WORLD!!!! is another sign. Another sign says: STING 3:16.

The camera comes down to the announcer's table with Jim Ross and Sarah D. standing by.

JR: WELCOME TO EL PASO! WELCOME... TO MONDAY NIGHT RAW! We're within ONE WEEK to the King of the Ring... and I'M EXCITED! What about it, Sarah D!?

Sarah: Oh I'm very excited about that.

JR: Tonight... in the MAIN EVENT! One half of the World Tag team Champions, THE GIANT... will take on one half of the FORMER champs.... Bret Hart! The Hitman is a former King of the Ring... and the Giant is an odds on favorite to win THIS years!

Sarah: I don't know what to say about that one.

JR: An important match for the Giant... he needs that momentum to enter the King of the Ring....because he's taking on the REIGNING King, Big Daddy Cool Diesel!

Sarah: That's right.

JR: They're both known for their lethal kicks.... what a match it'll be... GOLD-DUST..AND JADE!!!

Sarah: What about Gold-Dust going after Roxanne?

JR: Well... it's all psychological.. but it will be PHYSICAL too when they meet for the title! I believe that match WILL happen!

Sarah: It should be interesting.

JR: The return to singles action..FOR THE UNDERTAKER! First time since WrestleMania! His work is cut out for him... STING!

Sarah: Sting is a great athlete. His work is cut out for him.

JR: And in the opening contest, the former LEADER of the Network, Wild Chylde DiBiase... looking to quiet down Susannah Cecily Helmsley!

Sarah: I think if anybody can do it, Wild Chylde can.

JR: I'm sure Wild Chylde is mad about what Susannah did to the Network!

Sarah: There's not much we can do about it now.

JR: WHAT A NIGHT WE HAVE PLANNED! Let's head backstage and hear from Susannah.
