• Footage was shown from the WWF Headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut where the sign of Vince McMahon's parking space was crossed out and replaced with a Stone Cold Steve Austin name and skull.

• Footage was shown of CEO, Stone Cold Steve Austin's first day on the job at the WWF Headquarters. He told some people with barrels he would be back in a minute to tell them what to do. He then spoke to the receptionist, who was answering phone calls. Austin got onto her about answering the way she would answer the phone: "Good morning, World Wrestling Federation." Austin showed her how to answer the phone his way, answering, "Yeah, who the hell is this?" The person on the phone asked for Vince McMahon, and Austin said he fired that son of a bitch. The receptionist told Austin his office was on the top level. When entering the elevator, you could overhear the receptionist answering the next phone call, saying, "Yeah, who the hell is this? What the hell do you want?"

• Corporate Ministry Interview.
- The crowd immediately started the "Asshole" chants. Vince McMahon said they were all down-right rude. McMahon said the only thing worse than Stone Cold Steve Austin being the Heavyweight Champion was him being the CEO of the WWF. McMahon said the previous Monday's Raw is War show was supposed to be a celebration over the biggest master plan in the history of the WWF that The Corporate Ministry planned for three months. McMahon said sometimes plans go bad, and it tests the mental of a man and an organization. McMahon said there were probably some out there who thought The Corporate Ministry was cracking and some who would thought the group would disappear. McMahon said that would never happen. He said they were focused, as they set their sites on the future. He said he and his son, Shane, have given great deliberation to the King of the Ring PPV, as both would take on Austin in a Handicap Match. The crowd chanted, "Austin." McMahon smiled, thinking what stipulation he and Shane would add to the PPV match. McMahon suggested they engage Austin with a Dog Pound match, but they needed to see one first, which would be Road Dogg vs. Mr. Ass later in the show. Two collars would be wrapped around their necks, and both would be connected to one long chain. Shane then brought up a David vs. Goliath match, with David being Austin, and Shane and his father being Goliath. To see that match for Raw program, Goliath would be The Big Show and David would be X-Pac, as the two would go one-on-one. Shane's next idea was The Acolytes playing Vince and Shane in a Handicap Match against Kane, with Kane being Austin. McMahon suggested a blindfold match, thinking Austin could be in a blindfold. McMahon said they could call it a blind date match, as they would put a blindfold on Test later in the show. McMahon said Test crossed the line when he took Stephanie out on a date. Test's opponent would be The Big Bossman, who would have 20/20 vision. McMahon then suggested a straight-jacket match, and to take a look at that later in the show, they would put Ken Shamrock in on in a non-title match against a free Jeff Jarrett. McMahon said the show would be one everyone would remember for a while. Pat Patterson and Gerald Brisco then made their ways out near the entrance-way. Patterson told McMahon to look at him, saying he knew him for 20 years. Patterson pointed out that Stephanie was his Godchild. Patterson questioned McMahon, asking how he could put Stephanie through so much in the past. Patterson said he was questioning McMahon's judgement after McMahon demanded to know. McMahon said for Patterson to beat it, because Patterson wouldn't want to know his answers. Patterson said if McMahon was threatening him, he and Shane could go to hell. Brisco said and on the way to hell, they could get their own coffee. McMahon then decided to put Patterson and Brisco in a match against Viscera and Midian later in the show. McMahon once again said it would be a night we would never forget.

• The world primere of The Rock's Chef Boyardee aired. You can check it out with Microsoft Media Player on WWF.COM.

• Back at WWF Headquarters, Stone Cold Steve Austin yelled at someone to get their ass back to work as he walked down the hall. Austin walked into Vince McMahon's office. He was greeted by three ladies, each who told him they get usually get McMahon's coffee, his wine, and another is their back-up. It was 10:00am, and the assistants offered Austin a cup of coffee and something to eat. Austin just said he would take two beers. One said there was a board meeting in five minutes, but Austin just said he didn't like board games.

• Dog Collar Match: Mr. Ass defeated Road Dogg with the Famouser.
- Road Dogg, who was wearing the dog collar and chain, said Vince McMahon didn't put him in a predicament. He then had the crowd say "suck it" if they weren't down with him beating Mr. Ass. Ass made his way to the ring in a neck brace, with Jim Ross saying Ass was fine earlier in the day. The crowd chanted, "P--sy." RD pointed near the entrance-way and said, "Kane, get back there!" Of course, Kane wasn't there, but it gave the referee the chance to expose Ass as a faker, as he ripped the neckbrace off. Ass didn't put on the dog collar and chain to his neck, but instead, used it as a more violent weapon on RD. RD fought back with his shake, rattle, and roll punches, at which point Chyna made her way down to the ring (RD's King of the Ring quarter-final tournament opponent). RD had the pin, but Chyna pulled him out. Chyna then grabbed the chain and pulled it between RD's legs, which let Ass finish off his opponent with the Famouser. Ass and Chyna continued their assault after the match, using the chain as a weapon. Ass then mooned RD as he and Chyna left the ring.

• Backstage, Ken Shamrock arrived. He was confronted by Sgt. Slaughter and police officers. Slaughter said the officers would escort Shamrock to the ring. Shamrock said if they weren't arresting him, then Slaughter needed to get Vince McMahon's watchdogs off of him. Shamrock didn't understand that he had to be put in a straight-jacket for a non-title match against Jeff Jarrett later in the show.

• Backstage, The Rock made his way toward the ring.

• Rock Interview.
- The Rock said after The Undertaker got involved in his Cast Match against Triple H the previous Monday on Raw is War, he checked himself in The Smackdown Hotel. The Rock said The Undertaker didn't scare or impress him with the things he does, such as putting people on a symbol or rolling his eyes to the back of his head. The Rock challenged The Undertaker to a Heavyweight Title match for the King of the Ring PPV. The Rock then gave a description of what would happen in that match, as the crowd chanted, "Rocky." The Undertaker, along with Paul Bearer, then made his way out. The Undertaker siad The Rock was writing checks his ass couldn't cash. The Undertaker said he had crippled several people, and The Rock would be the next. The Undertaker accepted. Vince and Shane Mcmahon then made their ways out, shaking their heads at The Undertaker. McMahon asked The Rock what made him think he was the number-one contender. McMahon claimed the only thing that made The Rock think he was so great was the expensive shirts he wore. McMahon said in order for The Rock to receive his title shot at the PPV, he would have to defeat The Undertaker later in the show in a non-title match. The Rock accepted, by saying he would whip The Undertaker's candyass not only later in the show, but at the PPV. The Rock's music played, but Shane interrupted. Shane said since it was a night of stipulations, he would have a stipulation for The Rock's match with The Undertaker that would take place on Raw is War.

• Backstage, Jeff Jarrett and Debra made their ways to the ring. A crew member ran through the hall, not even paying attention to them. Jarrett said, "Did he just try to make a pass at you?"

• Ivory defeated Debra (w/Jeff Jarrett) via Pinfall, to capture the Women's Title.
- Debra immediately took a slap at Ivory, as Nicole Bass made her way down. Debra slammed her head into the turnbuckle and choked her with the ropes. Ivory then used her scarf not only to choke Debra, but to flip her over. Debra grabbed the scarf and choked Ivory. For some reason, Jeff Jarrett got on the apron to argue with the referee, which let Bass enter the ring and choke out Debra. Ivory then rolled up Debra for the quick win. Ivory and Bass slapped hands as they both made their ways back together.

• Back at WWF Headquarters Stone Cold Steve Austin, with two cases of beer next to him, had the board meeting with executives. He showed them the new oritentation manual (actually the upcoming Austin Special Collector's Issue magazine). He said he expected each of them to memorize it. Austin then asked for each executive for their name and their position in the company. The first person, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Research, and Development, was fired for looking stupid. Austin told him to leave the room. Jim Ross said, "I never liked the guy." He continued to make comments on the executives as the Austin footage continued. Jason Vasquez, the mail clerk, was promoted to the guy Austin previously fired. Austin said Jason's jo was when Austin snapped his fingers, he wanted a beer. Austin asked if anyone had a problem with the promotion. Everyone said, "No, sir." The next executive, Kevin Albanies, was the Director of the Computer Department. Ross said he was a nerd. Austin then said he wanted to have a beer contest. Austin said if the executives were standing when he returned to the room, they would remain with the company. If they were falling, vomiting, etc., they were fired.

• At WWF Headquarters, Stone Cold Steve Austin walked into the Human Resources department. Sarah was a Human Resources specialist, and Austin told her to use a resources to get him a cold beer. Matt DeLuca, another executive in Human Resources, was told by Austin to memorize the new orientation manual. Austin tried to get DeLuca to say "Austin 3:16 says I just whopped your ass." It took a while, but he eventually said it, and walked out of the door, swaggering.

• David vs. Goliath: X-Pac and The Big Show went to a No-Contest.
- The Big Show got on the microphone and said since he and X-Pac had nothing to prove to each other, he didn't want to fight. X-Pac said he knew how Big Show felt, but he had a job, he was a man, the match was booked, and whether or not Big Show wanted to fight, he wanted to. X-Pac tried to fight Big Show by hitting him with a kick in the kidney. Big Show then thew X-Pac out of the ring, as Kane made his way down to the ring. Kane didn't want X-Pac to have any part of the match. Kane then entered the ring to take on Big Show (King of the Ring tournament opponents). X-Pac entered the ring and told Kane not to do it. Kane then slapped X-Pac away. Kane set the ringposts on fire. X-Pac then knocked down his tag team partner, and the kicked Big Show out of the ring.

Stone Cold Steve Austin was then shown on Vince McMahon's desk, which had a ton of beer cans on it. Vince and Shane McMahon watched from the arena on a television monitor. Austin said after walking around WWF Headquarters all day, as the CEO, he determined McMahon's place needed just a little more bullshit, as if he meant it sarcastically. The workers with barrels that were outside of the WWF Headquarters in the beginning of the show, ended up dumping maneur all over McMahon's office floor. Austin then poured beer on the mound of maneur. Vince and Shane then made their ways toward the ring.

• Vince and Shane McMahon Interview.
- Vince McMahon said Stone Cold Steve Austin had disgraced the WWF for what he did to the WWF Headquarters. McMahon said he wouldn't forget what Austin did.

In the backstage area, McMahon took off in his limousine.

• The Rock defeated The Undertaker (w/Paul Bearer) and Triple H (w/Chyna), to capture a Heavyweight Title shot at the King of the Ring PPV.
- After The Undertaker made his way out, Triple H, along with Chyna, unexpectedly entered. Triple H said the stipulation that Shane McMahon was supposed to announce before he was rudely interrupted was that he was involved in a match, which meant a triple threat. The Undertaker's Heavyweight Title was not on the line in the match. Triple H and The Undertaker brawled with The Rock near the entrance-way. Triple H and The Undertaker continued to dominate when returning to the ring. At one point, The Undertaker went for the walk on the ropes, but landed between them after Triple H bumped into them. Triple H later went for the Pedigree, but The Rock countered with a catapult, which caused Triple H to land on the referee in the corner of the ring. While Triple H was on the outside, The Rock hit the Rock Bottom and the People's Elbow on The Undertaker, but there was no referee. Another referee entered, but Chyna pulled him out of the ring when a pin was bieng made and punched him. When another pin was made, Triple H made the save. The Rock reversed The Undertaker's swing to the ropes, and Chyna tripped him, thinking it was The Rock. The Undertaker then went after Chyna on the outside of the ring. Triple H went after him from the ring above, but The Undertaker pulled his head down, slingshotting him back into The Rock's hand for the Rock Bottom. The Undertaker tried ot make the save, but was unsuccessful, as The Rock took the win. Following the match, The Undertaker and Triple H started to fight with each. Corporate Ministry members ran in to separate the two as the show went off the air.
