[Q1]The opening video aired, followed by the pyro, and Michael Cole and Jerry “The King” Lawler welcomed us to the show. They hyped the six man tag match as the main event. ECW as the main event? Cool…Santino Marella made his ring entrance. He got a mic and cut a promo on Chavo. He said Chavo must be sad that is aunt went wee, wee, wee, wee, all the way home. He said he hated it, but it wasn’t his fault, Santina did that. Santino said tonight he was going to administer a fate worse than waking up every day as Chavo Guerrero to Chavo. It’s Santino’s English, what do you want? Chavo made his entrance next…

Chavo hit him and tossed him into the ring post. Chavo hit a belly to back for two. Chavo locked in an abdominal stretch, Chavo screamed, “He’s hurting me.” Santino powered out with a hip toss.
