We are back and did you know that the WWE cares about the military?

Chris Jericho comes to the ring and he is dressed for action, but he is going to talk to us. Jericho mentions that Sunday is Judgment Day, the day that all must atone for what we have done. Jericho says that the hypocrites fear Judgment Day, he does not because he is a man of virtue and a pure hearted man who does exactly what he says he is going to do. Ever since he came to Smackdown, he has been lied to and disrespected. Chris says that he thought it was because he was the new kid on the block, but he realizes that it is a conspiracy. It has been perpetrated by the fraudulent, gelatinous, parasitic, tape worms. He says that it is a conspiracy by the incompetent General Manager Teddy Long. It is a conspiracy by all of the jealous wrestlers in the locker room. On Sunday, he will have his vindication. If he has to go through the entire locker room on Sunday, he will do it. He says that he is a modern day conqueror. Chris says that Smackdown is his show. The first victim in his quest is the miniscule piece of trash Rey Mysterio. Chris says that Rey took something very important to him. Rey took his chance to be the World Champion. Jericho says that he will take something away from Rey when he beats him on Sunday to become the Intercontinental Champion for the ninth time. Chris says that he is going to take away from the fans the opportunity to see Rey hit the 619. Chris says that the fans will not see a 619 tonight either as he commands Rey Mysterio to come to the ring.

A larger figure comes out and it is Edge and Edge comes to the ring. Edge says that it has been a few weeks and that is all that it has taken to make him sick of hearing Jericho’s voice. Edge wonders why Jericho thinks everyone is after him because as the World Champion, everyone is out to get him. Edge says that Jericho is out to get him too. Edge comments on Jericho’s assertions about being in charge of Smackdown. Edge points out that it is his show and it was his show when Jericho was on Raw getting beaten by John Cena. Edge points out that Jericho can be a nine time champion if he wins on Sunday, but Edge is a nine time World Champion. Edge says that he is taking over this segment and Chris Jericho might want to call out his opponent, Edge is calling out his opponent Jeff Hardy. Chris interrupts and he says that he called out Rey Mysterio first.

Neither man comes out but we get the next best option, Smackdown’s own incompetent General Manager Teddy Long. Teddy tells the playas in the ring to calm down because it is neither man’s show because it is the WWE Universe’s show. Teddy says that he will give them a match and Chris Jericho will face Edge tonight.
