The show starts, and JR and King, along with Michael Cole and JBL, and Tazz and Joey Styles announce that tonight will have interpromotional matches, and the winners will win a draft pick for their brand.

We hear that Jesse "The Body" Ventura will speak next for Mr. McMahon Appreciation Night as we go to a commercial.

We come back from commercial to a video package of Vince's rise to the top of the wrestling world. After the video, another video is shown with Jesse Ventura, who says that "Mister" is a title he only uses with few people (such as the people that trained him in the military), and Vince isn't one of them. He will call him "McMahon". He says that Vince has been remarkable, just like dictators. He calls Vince a dictator, and says that all dictators will fall.

Carlito vs. CM Punk

Punk then gets Carlito into the corner and goes for the knee lift, but Carlito catches him. Punk fights out, knocks Carlito down, and goes for a move off the middle rope. Carlito catches Punk in midair with a dropkick. Carlito now works on the ribs of CM Punk, and gets a near fall. Carlito then locks in a body scissors.

Your Winner: CM Punk

Snoop Dogg is shown on a video saying thanks to Vince for making wrestling a spectacle. He also does a shout out to Cena and Stone Cold Steve Austin. He also mentions Vince getting his face shoved in Big Show's Backside. Snoop says to keep it raw as we go to break.

After the break we get a quick recap of the drafts so far, and then we get another video package of Vince, this one showing Vince's evil side, especially his love for firing people, his win of the Royal Rumble, and the Montreal Screwjob.

After video, Mick Foley's music hits, and the hardcore legend comes out to the stage with a mic. A "Foley" chant breaks out. Mick says that Coach's words do little for him, except his mention of an open WWE championship match, and that Foley himself is a 3 time champ. Since he's been rehired, Mick says that he's a member of Raw and that he'll be a part of the open WWE championship match at Vengeance. Speaking of Vengeance, Mick takes some time to mention Vince McMahon. He says Vince has effected everyone watching, everyone in attendance, and everyone in the back. He says Vince has the power to save the world, but has only followed through in a limited capacity.

He is a super patriot, but is also an egomaniac. He poses the question of Vince having any real friends. He asks those of us watching and those in attendance if Vince has any real friends. He reads off a list of people who were approached for McMahon appreciation night including Hogan, HHH, HBK, Bischoff, the Rock, Trish Stratus, and others, with mixed reactions for some and huge pops for others. He says that all of them declined, and that they don't appreciate Vince, and asks if any of us should appreciate Vince. He says "Have a Nice Day." and we go to a break.

Balls Mahoney vs. Umaga
Balls is quickly taken off his feet with a kick to the face. Umaga picks him up, and hits the Samoan spike for the win, and Raw's first draft pick in the form of King Booker.
Your Winner: Umaga

We come back with a video of Steve-O thanking Vince for all the entertainment. He then recites a little poem he wrote, and says that Vince is the man. Back in the arena, Lashley's music hits to a rather large pop. Tonight, though, the ECW champ has to take on the Rabid Wolverine, Chris Benoit.

Bobby Lashley vs. Chris Benoit
The two men size each other up with a staredown, and this match gets underway with a takedown by Lashley, but Benoit manages to get a front facelock on Lashley, but gets a spinebuster for his trouble.

After a break Ashley shows up on the Titantron. She thanks Vince for creating the Diva Search and giving her the chance to join the WWE. She expresses regret over spilling coffee on Vince last week on Smackdown, and being suspended. She also mentions Vince relationship with the WWE Divas, and talks about the time Vince made Trish bark like a dog back in 2001. Ashley says that Vince likes that, so he'll get that tonight, but from two divas instead. The music of Fabulous Moola and Mae Young hits, and the two old women come out and start walking around on all fours and barking like dogs...just disturbing...that's all I can really say. We go to a commercial with the promise of MVP vs Santino Marella next.

After the break a video is shown of Bret Hart. He says that it's hard to find the words to express his appreciation for Vince. He says he knows there's no good words to show it, but the best way to show appreciation is a right hand in the jaw, or two, or three, or forty or fifty. And that's all he has to say about that.
After the break, Jimmy Snuka and Iron Sheik are shown. Superfly says that as he watches today, he sees Vince has changed, and is kind of crazy. Iron Sheik starts saying something. The word racketball is uttered, but it's hard to understand anything Iron Sheik says. This whole segment was hilarious, though.

The Miz vs Snitsky
Miz goes on the attack, attempting to get the upper hand, but Snitsky easily powers the Miz into the tree of woe. Snitsky then hits some kicks, and a body slam for a two count. Snitsky hits a massive clothesline, and hits the Big Boot for the win, winning ECW the next draft pick. Snitsky doesn't let up, though, and continues to beat the Miz down. The ref reverses his decision. So the winner is the Miz, and Smackdown gets the next draft pick in the form of Chris Masters.
Your Winner: The Miz

Bobby Heenan is shown talking about how much Vince has done. He touches on Vince's strut, and says that one must have confidence, and that Vince has to have either a bad case of chaffing, or the biggest pair going. He leaves it to us to figure it out, and we go to break with the promise of "Rowdy" Roddy Piper speaking next.

We come back from the break to the introduction of Roddy Piper. Piper gets a huge pop. He comes out with a mic in hand. He says that there's no one better to appreciate Vince than Roddy Piper. He shows us a video of some of Vince's "proudest" moments (mainly new DX and Stone Cold stuff, but other stuff is shown too, like Shane's purchase of WCW and Vince getting shaved). Piper says that on behalf of the wrestling audience around the world, we appreciate Vince for what he really is. As we go to a commercial, it looks like a Divas match is next.

Candice Michelle vs Kristal
This match starts with Kristal getting the upper hand with a low kick. She works over Candice's leg, but Candice Michelle kicks her in the face to get the upper hand. Candice takes advantage with a clothesline, and backbreak, and an elbow drop for a two count. Kristal tries to get the upper hand, but Candice reverses and hits the Spinning Heel Kick for the 1-2-3.

Lashley's music hits, and he comes out to a rather nice pop. Coach's music hits, and he comes out and says he needs to speak with Lashley. He says that Vince says that now the Lashley is part of Raw and not ECW, he can no longer be ECW Champion. Per Vince's orders, Lashley is now stripped of the ECW World Title.

Burke tries to take advantage, but is taken down by Batista, who hits the Batista Bomb on Burke for the win. Smackdown's next draft is the Nature Boy Ric Flair.
Your Winner: Batista

After a break we get a quick recap of the drafts to occur so far. They also talk about the supplemental draft to occur on Wednesday. Dusty Rhodes is then announced in the arena, and the son of a plumber comes out with a mic. He says one of Vince's favorite sayings is "Perception is reality." He says a reality is that Vince's vision was to create the biggest empire in wrestling history, no matter who he stepped on to get there. He says Vince's legacy is in the building and on the sign that says "Sold Out". He talks about guys who have been fired and been bitter, only to come back a few months later when called. He said you don't have to like Vince, but that we all have to respect Vince McMahon. We go to break, with the promise of a 15-man battle royal for the final two draft picks.

Viscera takes out Dreamer, as Thorn and Hardy try to fight off Henry. Mark Henry takes out Kevin Thorn, and Orton fails to take down Henry.

Now Viscera goes for the elimination, but Henry fights out. Henry hits a massive clothesline, and now tries again for the elimination and succeeds. Viscera is out, now Henry is left to dominate everyone left. ECW only has Cor Von left, and Raw still has Orton, Nitro, and Kenny, and Smackdown still has Mark Henry, and Matt Hardy, as well as Eugene. There may be some more left, but it's pandemonium as we go to commercial, with Henry the only one on his feet.

We come back from a commercial with Henry working on Masters, Hardy going at Nitro and Orton and Cor Von fighting. A "Hardy" chant breaks out. Cor Von is taken out, and all of ECW's guys are out. Nitro is taken out by Randy Orton, who is now the only Raw guy left. Masters goes to take out Hardy, but it's reversed, and Masters is eliminated.

Matt is hurt, and Orton begins stalking for the RKO. Hardy counters with a side effect. Hardy now goes on the offense, but Orton hits the inverted backbreaker. The crowd keeps chanting "Hardy", and Orton goes for the elimination, but Hardy fights out of it. These two are now battling with everything. Hardy gets the advantage with an axe-handle off of the middle rope. Orton manages to get the upper hand by lifting up Hardy and throwing him to the apron. A European Uppercut finishes it, Orton gets the win and Raw gets the next two draft picks. The first pick is Snitsky. The second goes to MISTERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR KENNEDYYYYYY!!!!!!
Your Winner: Randy Orton

After a break, Steve Austin is shown. He says he appreciates driving a beer truck into the arena and drenched Vince with beer. He appreaciates ruining Vince's new convertable with cement. He appreciates attacking Vince in the hospital, as well as driving a zambonie into the arena one time. Then Austin goes on a rant about how he doesn't appreaciate a thing Vince has done for anyone. There's a lot of bleeps, but you can get the idea. It's Stone Cold.

The WWE Championship Open Challenge at Vengeance is announced as Mick Foley vs Randy Orton vs King Booker vs John Cena.

Vince's music hits, and the Chairman comes out looking rather out of it. He goes to the ring, and gets showered with boos. A "You Suck" chant breaks out, and Vince is handed a mic. Vince starts shaking, and thanks the audience. Boos continue, and Vince drops the mic, and begins to sway. He then exits the ring, and begins to walk away, looking like he belongs in an asylum. He walks into the back and the crowd begins to cheer for his exit. Vince is now shown walking in the back, where he is surrounded by performers that were not shown tonight, and Coach tells him he's going the wrong way. Vince turns and starts walking in the other direction, finally passing Gerald Brisco and Pat Patterson before exiting the building. He then walks into the parking lot, and seems disturbed by something (the two guys in the background maybe), before walking to a limo and getting in. As he shuts the door, the limo explodes, Mafia style, sending debris everywhere as Raw goes off the air.
