I started it, and I am damn well going to finish it. I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. Randy Orton is mine." Vickie Guerrero comes out in a wheelchair interrupting, "Excuse me! Excuse me! The only person who will determine who and when anyone will face Randy Orton is me! The new GM of RAW!" Crowd rawring with a united "You Suck!!" Vickie continues, "Randy Orton could be the new WWE Champion if any of you are counted out or disqualified at Backlash's 6 man match. I have given Orton a well deserved night off tonight. So tonight, we will have a 3 on 2 handicap match. The three of you (Shane McMahon, HHH, and Batista) will team up to face Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase.
