Show:
Rey’s music hits and he makes his usual entrance. Rey grabs a mic and says that this Sunday, his dream comes true, he wrestles for the World Title at Wrestlemania. Rey says he’s worked for this all his life but someone says he doesn’t deserve to be there, someone who says he’s a charity case, and that someone is Randy Orton. Rey calls Orton out. Orton doesn’t show so Rey calls for Teddy Long. Kurt Angle’s music hits and he makes his way to the ring. Angle walks up to Rey and says that with all due respect, he’s the one who wants Randy Orton one on one tonight after what he did to him last week. Angle then says he’s going to walk away champ at Wrestlemania because nobody beats the wrestling machine. Orton’s music finally hits and he slowly makes his way out to the top of the entranc way wearing a new t-shirt and jeans. Orton teases them a little saying he seems to have gotten under their skin. Orton suggests Kurt Angle & Rey Mysterio vs. Randy Orton in a handicap match. He proceeds to call Angle a paper champion, and Rey a charity case. He says he’ll embarrass them tonight. Then he says, too bad, he doesn’t want to jeopardize his chances at Mania by wrestling tonight. He says he’s going to pack his bags and head for Chicago right now. Long’s music hits and he meets Orton on the entrance ramp. Long says that the handicap match sounds intriguing. Orton accuses Long of playing favorites. They have a little shouting match on the runway over it before Angle interrupts followed by a Rey interruption. Rey and Angle go face to face because Rey is upset that Angle insinuated that Angle suggested Rey can’t beat him. Randy interrupts them and suggests an Angle vs Mysterio match so he can prove he belongs in the main event. Rey & Angle are both as stupid as Trish as they agree to the match. Long calls out security to remove Orton from the building. Orton actually seems upset.
