|-\-| Star Trek comes to an end on the new TNN network as SLAM FADES IN and starts off from the parking lot at the Philips Arena in HOTLANTA, Atlanta, Georgia, as a limousine is pulling into the lot. It then stops, and sits there for a minute |-/-|

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | Wait a minute King, we're live here on Slam, and there's a limousine pulling into the parking lot..

| :-: | 'Burger King' Jerry Lawler | :-: | How should I know, JR? Ha, all I know is, whoever it is, arrives in style..look at the size of that limo, wow!!

|-\-| The chauffer gets out of the front seat, and walks around to the back, as he opens up the back door, and out climbs the Slam CEO, Ric Flair as the cheers from inside the arena can be heard. Ric steps out of the limousine, when all of a sudden, Eric Bischoff walks up to him as the boo's start to pour in. |-/-|

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | Well, well, well..if it isn't the 19 time, WOOOOOOOOO Limousine ridin, Jet flyin, ramblin, gamblin, kissed all the girls and made 'em cry, The Nature boy, Ric Flair, Ha-ha-ha..

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | OH, is that so Ric..well sorry to rain on your parade, but you won't be here to see it my friend..

| :-: | 'Naych' Ric Flair | :-: | What are you talking about?..

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | I hoped you ask that Ric, but it just so happens that you'll have to wait, oh say || looks at watch || 10 minutes before you can fully find out, but until then, don't take another step forward, get back into your limousine, and leave the premisis..because Mr. Flair, I regret to infor--wait a minute, on second thought, I'm very, very pleased, to inform you, that you're contract with WME..has been..TERMINATED!!

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | Oh no, I'm afraid not my friend..so I'm going to leave you with these options, you can either leave now..or you'll to answer, to these guys, Ha-ha..

|-\-| All the sudden, five huge built Security guards walk up and stand behind Eric Bischoff with there arms crossed, as The Bisch stares at Flair with a huge smirk. Flair looks around, obviously noticing that the odds are against him, as he slowly backs up. Without another word, Flair climbs into the back of the limousine and closes the door, as Bischoff walks to the limo and knocks on the tinted window. |-/-|

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | Enjoy the show from your hotel room Flair, Ha-ha, oh yes, and NEVER come back!! Ha-ha-ha..

|-\-| The limousine starts to drive, as Bischoff watches it drive off with a huge smile on his face, as the cameras then fade to the SLAM opening promo. |-/-|

|-\-| The Slam intro hits, and afterwards, the cameras open up to the pitch-black Phillips Arena as the pyro shoots down from the top of the arena, and the huge explosions start going off on the stage, as the crowd has come completely out of there seats. |-/-|

|-\-| The cameras pan around the entire crowd as almost every single fan is on there feet raising up there signs and screaming at the tops of there lungs, as the cameras zoom down to the announcers position, where Jim Ross and Jerry 'The King' are situated. |-/-|

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | We are LIVE! from Hotlanta, Atlanta, George at the completely SOLD-OUT Phillips Arena, just under six days away from WME Downfall, Live! on Pay-Per-View..

| :-: | 'Burger King' Jerry Lawler | :-: | And JR, what a night its been already, Ha, I can't believe what we just saw!!

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | Yes thats right Ladies and Gentlemen, for those of you just joining us, minutes ago, right before Slam went on the air, we witnessed something shocking, and that was Ric Flair arriving here to the arena, only to have Eric Bischoff, of all people, tell him that his contract, with WME, was to be simply put, TERMINATED..

| :-: | 'Burger King' Jerry Lawler | :-: | Whats the meaning of this, JR?! I mean last week, we saw Eric Bischoff tell Mr. McMahon that Mr. McMahon wasn't have the man he was, and that things were going to change..and JR, I haven't seen Mr. MCMahon all day, have you?!

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | Well no King, I have not..and I have to admit, I don't know whats going on, but I sure as hell don't like it one damn bit..In addition folks, tonight we're going to see all four men involved in Slam's Main Event at Downfall in action, here tonight! In the Main Event, Rikishi defends the WM2k1 Championship, against 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin!!..

| :-: | 'Burger King' Jerry Lawler | :-: | Yeah JR, and imagine if Stone Cold could manage to beat Rikishi here tonight, and go into Downfall as the WM2k1 Champion, Ahh, oh no, I don't even wanna think about it!!

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | Well that very well could happen King, but also the other two men involved at Downfall, Triple H and Matt Hardy, Version 1.0 will go one-on-one here tonight, and to say the least, what a match that should--

|-\-| All the sudden, JR is interrupted as Eric Bischoff's theme hits, and the crowd completely erupts into boos'. After a few seconds, the man himself, Eric Bischoff comes strutting through the curtains with his arms out, sort of gliding out onto the stage. He then blows kisses to the crowd, and riases his arms up, sauntering down the ramp with a huge smile on his face. |-/-|

|-\-| Eric Bischoff walks up the sheet metal steps, as he waves to the crowd. He then walks down the apron, and whipes his shoes on the apron canvas, then climbs into the ring. Bisch throws his arms up once again, as he paces around the ring. He then takes a microphone from The Fink, and starts to pace back and forth, before raising the mic to his mouth. |-/-|

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | Let's see what this jackass has to say, King..

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | What's up HOTLANTA?! Ha-ha, Atlanta, Georgia..AKA..the Birthplace, of a little organization called, W..C..W!! Thats right, a new era began here, the WCW era, and it was headed by ME, Eric Bischoff..Alot of memories come out of Atlanta, but tonight, new memories will be etched into the heads of millions for ages..Thats right, ANOTHER new era will begin here tonight, in this very arena..HISTORY WILL BE MADE!! Because I, the most innovative, the most POWERFUL man in the history of this business, Eric..Bischoff..have a HUGE! blockbuster, announcement that will shake WME, and for that matter, this business down to its very foundation!!

|-\-| Bischoff begins to pace around, as more and more boo's begin to pour in and get louder and louder by the minute. |-/-|

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | Go ahead, and boo me all you want..But deep down inside, you all know, that no one, can even compare to Eric Bischoff..not even, Mr. McMahon!! You see, last week I left Slam off, by telling Mr. McMahon the facts, by laying it down for Vince so-to-speak..I came right out, and told that old, has-been that he's not HALF the man he used to be, That he is now nothing more then a SHADOW of what once was, the most powerful man in Sports Entertainment..but now I, Eric Bischoff, have taken his place in more ways than one..and you can all now thank me, because you will never, and I mean, NEVER have to lay your eyes on that old, washed-up SONUVA BITCH, Vince McMahon in a WME arena, EVER, EVER, AGAIN!!

|-\-| The crowd completely erupts into boo's, as Bischoff looks around with a pissed off expression, as the crowd starts chanting "ASSHOLE!! ASSHOLE!! ASSHOLE!!" But Bischoff only smirks off the boo's and begins to talk once again. |-/-|

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | Now, Vince, Shane, for that matter, Ric Flair..I know all three of you are watching right now, I know you wouldn't miss this HUGE announcement for the world..And I know you three want some answers..Because the fact is, that you three, were kicked out to the curb, plain and simple, no questions asked, no answers given..so as of this very moment, you three have absolutely NO idea as to what's going on..except for the fact that you were thrown out, and you're now sitting on your asses, while I, Eric Bischoff, am in the ring, am on the show, am at the very TOP of the federation that you, yourselves, CREATED, Ha-ha-ha!!

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | Vince, I'm going to come right out and say it, just because the suspense is killing me..Vince, if you weren't too busy..suspending people, handing titles to oversized somoan bastards with not one shred of talent, and letting Daddy's Little Girl take control of things around here..then maybe, just maybe you..and your son, who is the spitting image of you, would have been more aware..when the two biggest genious minds this business has to offer, Paul E. Heyman, and myself, Eric Bischoff, BOUGHT.....WRESTLEMANIA ENTERTAINMENT...RIGHT OUT..FROM UNDER YOU!!

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | OHH GOOD GAWD NO, YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME, GOOD GAWD..

| :-: | 'Burger King' Jerry Lawler | :-: | WHAT?! JR I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!!

|-\-| The crowd's boo has now become defening as Eric Bischoff saunters around the ring with a huge smile on his face. |-/-|

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | THATS RIGHT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN--YOUR NEW, OWNER OF 50% of Wrestlemania Entertainment, your's truely, ERIC...BISCHOFF!! Ha-ha-ha, and as I told Vince McMahon last week, things are going to change around here from now on, starting here TONIGHT..Tonight marks the beginning of a new era, not only here in WME, but in the business, the beginning of the BISCHOFF ERA..History has been made here tonight, and TONIGHT will defiantely be a night to remember..Now before I leave all you people with WME's #1 Show..which got even BETTER with me behind the desk running things, I have one more thing to say to Mr. Vincent K. McMahon, and Vince, I've been waiting a long, long time to say this..but now I can, and quite frankly, there's not a goddam thing you can do about it..so Vince, do yourself a favor, pucker up..and...

KISS MY ASS YOU SONUVA BITCH!!

|-\-| The crowd completely erupts into boo's again, we've never heard a booing ovation as loud as this display right here. "I'm Back, and Better Than Ever!" blares over the speakers, as Bischoff drops the mic and looks around with a huge smile stretched acrossed his face. He climbs out of the ring, and starts back up the ramp as JR's voice cuts in. |-/-|

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | King, I don't believe this, I REFUSE TO BELIEVE WHAT I SEE DAMMIT, I refuse to believe what I see, say it ain't so, tell me that this no-good bastard isn't in-charge..

| :-: | 'Burger King' Jerry Lawler | :-: | JR, I don't know what to say, I'm left speechless, this just doesn't seem real..

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | DAMN him King, DAMN ERIC BISCHOFF, DAMN HIM TO HELL!!..

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | Well Ladies and Gentlemen, as if this night couldn't get any worse, we've now topped it off, with Steve Corino throwing The Undertaker off the stage, and obviously as you can see, during the break we've been told that The Undertaker has indeed suffered a neck injury, as you can see with the neck brace..

| :-: | 'Burger King' Jerry Lawler | :-: | And JR, its always depressing when a Superstar gets injured like this..

| :-: | 'Bar-B-Q-Boy' Jim Ross | :-: | Thats right, its always hard to see a WME Superstar carried out of here on a stretcher, and I can't understand what possessed Steve Corino to do something like this, but nonetheless, the damage has been done, and there's not a damn thing you, me, or anyone else can do about it King..

|-\-| The medics and EMTs place the neckbrace around The Undertaker's neck as they lift him up on the stretcher and start to wheel him out, as again the crowd stays silent, and the cameras fade in to Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler. |-/-|

| :-: | 'The Truth' Theodore Long | :-: | Typical Billionaire whiteman for you, no respect for true talent..

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | My views exactly, but me on the other hand Ted..I'm different, because I recognize talent when I see it, and only a complete and utter MORON who look at Booker T and not recognize talent, therefore tonight I'm going to go ahead and book a match right here, right now..seeing as though we're in Atlanta, Georgia, the HOME of WCW..I figure that I should put two of WCW's TOP Superstars against each other, in that ring, here tonight..

| :-: | 'The Truth' Theodore Long | :-: | Fill me in playa..

| :-: | 'The Bisch' Eric Bischoff | :-: | Oh I will Mr. Long, ya see in one corner, its gunna be the Platinum Playa, the Booker Man, the 5 time, 5 time, 5 time, 5 time, 5 time W..C..W Champion, BOOKER T! and in the other corner, Heh-eh, get ready for this, the Stinger himself, STING!..
