• Rock Interview
- The Rock said his Heavyweight Title match with Triple H was set for the Survivor Series PPV. He said that at the No Mercy PPV, Triple H hurt the "People's Ribs." He said that when he hit Stone Cold Steve Austin with the sledgehammer, it was obviously meant for Triple H. He then did the routine where he said he would stick the sledgehammer up Triple H's candyass. Austin then made his way out. He said he didn't see it being The Rock vs. Triple H at Survivor Series. He said if The Rock didn't hit him with the sledgehammer, it would be The Rock vs. Austin and not Triple H. Vince McMahon entered just before Triple H and Austin were about to go at it. He said he heard both of their views, but needed to hear Triple H's. Out came Triple H. He said it didn't matter what McMahon decided on, because he would always come out on top. McMahon asked Triple H who he wanted to fight at Survivor Series. He was about to say, until The Rock said, "It doesn't matter what you think!" McMahon then decided Triple H, The Rock, and Austin would battle it out in a triple threat match.
