Triple H and Stephanie are shown backstage, and it looks like they are heading out to the arena. Triple H and Stephanie are indeed on their way to the arena, and the two are making their way to the ring. You gotta believe that Triple H has a lot on his mind after the recent happenings in the WWF. The two get in the ring and Triple H doesn't look to be in a good mood as he knows what it's going to be like at Wrestlemania, and that's less than two weeks away! Stephanie gets on the mic and asks for the attention of the fans. The fans chant "Slut, slut, slut!" in her direction and Triple H gets on the mic and tells the fans to show some damn respect for his wife.

The fans start chanting "Asshole, asshole!" and they are really getting under the skin of Triple H and Stephanie. Triple H says after Wrestlemania, the fans will have no choice but to bow down on their knees and respect him. Because at Wrestlemania, he will not only beat The Big Show, but at Wrestlemania, he will beat The Rock. The fans start chanting for The Rock. Triple H says as far as tonight goes, Vince McMahon said that he has a match that will rock the foundation of the World Wrestling Federation. Triple H says he knows that if the match is that big, it's gotta have him in it. Triple H tells Vince to get his old ass down here and give him the good news face to face. The music of The Big Show comes on and he and Shane are on their way to the ring!

Shane says that he knows exactly what Vince meant when he said that they would have a match tonight that would rock the foundation of the WWF. Shane says that can only mean one thing, and that's that tonight, it would be Triple H defending the WWF Championship in that very ring against none other than The Big Show! Shane asks Triple H what he thinks about that, and Triple H thinks about it for a few moments as the fans chant for The Rock. Triple H goes over what Shane just said, and then says that he'd love to do that, but no. Triple H says that he doesn't have to defend the WWF belt before Wrestlemania, although, he would right here tonight. He'll defend the belt tonight, but it isn't going to be against The Big Show, because he doesn't deserve it.

The music of the Corporation comes on and Vince McMahon makes his way out to the arena! Vince says that it's not a bad idea for the match. Vince says he's very happy that Triple H is willing to defend the WWF title tonight, because that's exactly what is going to happen. Vince says it will be Triple H against The Big Show and against The Rock! Vince then goes on to say that he knows that Wrestlemania is less than two weeks away, but why not have the Wrestlemania main event come to Chicago tonight? Vince asks why not have the Triple Threat Wrestlemania right there in that very ring tonight? The crowd is jacked up, and Shane says that he likes that, and Vince is finally making sense. That is a smart business decision, and Shane asks Triple H about it. Vince tries to sucker Triple H into the match and Stephanie whispers something into Triple H's ear.

Vince calls Triple H a coward, and Triple H tells him to shut up, because he's trying to think. Triple H says here's the deal, Triple Threat Match, Wrestlemania's Main Event match here tonight, in this ring, but this match will never take place again! Triple H says that this match happens tonight, but it doesn't happen at Wrestlemania. There will be no rematch, and this is it. One time, he beats The Big Show and The Rock's asses, and that's it. It's done. Triple H says that if that's the stipulation, then they have a deal. Vince tells Triple H to take his lips and pucker them all up. Vince says he doesn't want him to kiss his daughter, because that would make him puke. Vince says he doesn't want Triple H to kiss his ass, either. Vince says he wants him to take the lips and kiss that WWF Championship belt goodbye!
