Everything I did in my life professionally, I did for each and
every one of you.
What the hell was that?
From now on, it's all about me.
Which is also why, I made the match you're about to see.
Lillian, come here.
>> The following contest is scheduled for One Fall.
[MUSIC].
In this inferno, 320 pounds,
he is one half of the World Tag Team Champion, Kane.
>> [INAUDIBLE] [SOUND] This doesn't look good.
>> When he said he made this map as well for his own personal amusement.
>> I don't think I had I've seen Mr.
McMahon is this type of a mood in a very, very long time.
>> I tell you from personal experience, Mr. McMahon is not easily amused.
>> [MUSIC]
>> Look at the look on his face.
[SOUND] See the fire in the eyes
of a German man as well.
This does not bode well for Kane's opponent
>> And his opponent.
[SOUND] [LAUGH] The Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels.
>> Now, it all fall together, not it all turn full circle.
Now, I know what Mr. McMahon meant.
[MUSIC]
We are less than one week away from Kane and Shawn Michaels meeting one another,
in the Elimination Chamber New Year's Revolution.
We know that Kane will enter the chamber last.
And tonight they're gonna go at it to kick off the first Monday Night Raw of 2006.
>> I wonder why McMahon's still in the ring?
>> Cut the music, cut it.
I'd like to state that there's a stipulation listen up.
The stipulation in this match, if Shawn Michaels uses a super kick,
he's automatically disqualified, and he loses the match.
>> What? >> Now ring the bell.
What?
>> Ring [SOUND] the damn bell.
>> Ring the bell, thank you very much.
>> The bell's rung, and Shawn Michaels is in a match against Kane and
he's not allowed to use the super kick?
>> I don't know what you guys are getting all worked up
>> Shawn Michael's for that matter.
Shawn Michael's is supposed to be the icon, the legend,
the man who's got up against anybody.
Surely he can beat Kane, without the super kick.
[INAUDIBLE] never use that word in mystery man's presence.
>> No you got to remember joy.
[NOISE] [INAUDIBLE]
As a few moments ago,
it's not about the fans anymore,
it's not about anybody.
It's about Mr. McMahon, it's all about him.
>> Well, is this gonna be the me generation for Mr. McMahon?
>> Mr. McMahon is running WWE for his own personal amusement, that means,
all are vulnerable.
>> Hey, you guys are, not me.
>> That how it works.
>> I'll you what, your six days before he is.
>> Sitting this close to us.
>> We all know how devastating that elimination Chamber match can be.
But to put Shawn Michaels in a match like this
against, >> [NOISE]
>> A referee Mike.
>> Just six days before the elimination Chamber.
>> Amused, he smiled He does have that look on his face that I love so much.
>> It's a smirk not a smile.
>> Look at this. >> Sunset flip, handful of tights, two!
>> No.
>> [NOISE] >> There's that eery smirk again.
>> Now I know what Mr McMahon meant,
earlier today when I passed him the hall and he said happy me year.
>> Is that what he really said?
>> Yeah. It's all about Mc McMahon now.
>> [INAUDIBLE] Shane Michaels from using the Superkick that's worst than making him
wrestle with on hand tied behind his back.
>> What a way to start Raw, this huge match going into New Year's revolution.
>> Listen up.
>> I personally wanna see if Shawn Michaels has anything else in the back,
other than the Superkick to defeat Kane.
With the size differential, I don't know what else Shawn Michaels has to knock down
the monster for a three count, but that super kick.
>> Well, it's time to go to plan B, or C, or D.
Get him out Kane.
>> Plan B may just be survive, so
you can be on the Elation team on New Year's Resolution this Sunday.
>> Come on Kane, one, two, three, four.
>> And now, that these 17,896 fans that have packed
the Continential Airlines Arena tonight, thought they would get a match like this
to start >> [APPLAUSE]
Cover.
Two.
Two count only with a chop to the throat.
>> It's kind of ironic.
>> What's that? >> You mentioned seventeen
thousand eight hundred and ninety-six fans here.
One person being abused by this match.
>> And he's sitting to my left.
Man.
>> [NOISE] >> Shawn Michaels, everything
he's got, everything except we it.
>> [NOISE] >> Look at this.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> But the big red monster is still
on his feet, albeit on the outside.
>> There he goes.
>> Baby!
>> And now finally Kane goes down.
>> Hey. >> [NOISE] What are you doing?
I've given you everything.
>> It's not enough, I'm sorry.
>> I've given you everything.
>> Shawn Michaels is saying what are you doing?
I've given you everything.
>> Mr. McMahon, it's just not enough.
>> Well, now, Kane decides to give Shawn Michaels everything too.
>> Look at this.
>> How can Shawn Michaels defeat Kane without Sweet Chin Music?
Can he possibly do it?
>> Shawn is out.
We're back live on Raw.
Mr McMahon made this match for his own personal amusement.
There he is, very amused.
Kane Shawn Michaels.
And Shawn Michaels has been banned, from using Sweet Chin Music.
>> And Shawn Michaels actually uses Sweet Chin Music,
it will be an automatic disqualification.
>> Kane, how are you, you still wrestle on occasion.
What would you do if Mr. McMahon banned you from using the pile drive?
>> Well, like I said earlier, you gotta go to Plan B, or C, or D, as said.
You gotta come up with something.
You got to dig down deep and
find someone that's gonna be [INAUDIBLE] >> [INAUDIBLE] Doing this Sunday at
the Elimination Chamber that Shawn Michaels is gonna Super kick everybody in
the chamber notes.
You got to find other ways to get it done.
>> [INAUDIBLE] Now in a back suplex and Mr McMahon enjoying what he sees.
>> I'm just trying to remember the last match I saw Shawn Michaels win,
that he didn't use a superkick, look out.
You too do realize that these two men are the only two of the six,
to be in the Elimination Chamber before that Sunday.
He's tasted success, and he's also tasted defeat in the Elimination Chamber.
>> Man.
>> Michaels tasted the Propane.
Well, I will give Shawn Michaels breath, he is doing whatever it takes,
to try to get this thing done.
But unfortunately, that's the big red monster.
It's not some ham and
egg man told him that he was wrestling.
Mr McMahon doesn't have to tell anybody anything, he does what he wants.
>> I'm just making a point, Coach.
>> Look out, this is not gonna be good for Shawn Michaels.
>> And by the way, you better watch what you're saying-
>> He's amused.
>> Cover, two, and.
>> Two, two.
>> Coach and you were chastising me?
>> No, no, let's keep in mind that it's gonna be zero tolerance from here on out.
[NOISE] What do you say Shawn?
>> Look at Kane just ripping- >> He's trying to pull Shawn Michaels hair
out, but what?.
>> You think Kane's enjoying this?
You think Kane's amused as well?
>> What do you say Shawn?
>> Well he seems to be having a good time.
>> Sadistic smile on his face.
>> Well wouldn't you be if you were Kane and
you knew that Shawn Michaels couldn't hit you.
>> Sweet Chin Music.
>> I'd be thrilled if I was Kane knowing that he could take him down tonight.
And also he could be the last man in the elimination table.
This could be a great week for Kane.
>> Honestly, I don't think I would be thrilled if I were Kane.
[INAUDIBLE] >> One, two, three, come on.
>> Watching this, this is not gonna be.
>> Keep it in the ring.
>> What a shot.
>> Kick his ass, Kane.
[NOISE] WWE really enjoying himself.
>> Cover, two, no.
>> I mean, think about it, Kane has a distinct advantage because he will be
entering the Elimination Chamber last.
Shawn Michaels has an advantage.
He could be arguably because he won the World Championship in
the Elimination Chamber.
Yeah, but he can't be the favorite in this match because,
sometimes you see this happen.
A wrestler, they become so reliant on one maneuver, like in Shawn's case,
the Sweet Chin Music to defeat Beat their opponents and
then if you can't [INAUDIBLE] from you [INAUDIBLE] lost.
>> [NOISE] >> [INAUDIBLE] especially when your
opponent is so much larger than you are, Kane is seven feet tall,
[INAUDIBLE] Shawn Michaels is not.
>> Kane could be the next WWE Champion in the Elimination Chamber.
>> [INAUDIBLE] Shawn Do you guys also notice how well behaved the crowd out here
ringside has been for this match?
>> Big things change, when there's no zero tolerance.
People listen.
Maybe if Shawn Michaels would listen,
he wouldn't be put in situations such as this.
>> Well, we all heard Shawn Michaels earlier.
He got face to face with Mr. McMahon and asked him why he was doing this.
And this could be all for Shawn Michaels.
>> Well Shawn Michaels escapes the choke slam in mid air.
>> Well he may have gone for the frying pan into the fire,
slide out of the choke slam, but Hurricane's right on him.
[NOISE] >> Obviously,
Kane has not been banned from using the choke slam.
[NOISE] >> That would have made the match
a little more even wouldn't it?
>> [NOISE] >> Shawn Michaels hits that flying
forearm.
But that's usually the setup too, guys?
>> I know what you're thinking Styles,
will see what Shawn Michaels can figure out.
You can't use we can use.
>> Three, four.
>> Shawn Michaels has come up with something
curious is whether, >> Aas good
that bad lower back is taking some.
>> Damage.
>> DT t nice No, left shoulder up.
>> [NOISE] >> Mr.
McMahon couldn't be happier that Kane kicked out of the DDT.
>> I think that look where- >> Look, neck breaker, neck breaker.
>> [INAUDIBLE] work.
>> Great follow up to the DDT two in.
>> Two.
>> Mr McMahon's up on his feet [INAUDIBLE] >> Okay so a DDT didn't work,
a neckbreaker didn't work, what else can Shawn Michaels do?
>> Not Sweet CHin Music.
>> [NOISE] >> Man.
>> What a boot right to the face Shawn Michaels and Mr. McMahon wants it.
>> [LAUGH] [INAUDIBLE] >> Highly amused.
>> Come on, Kane, come on.
>> And now The Big Red Machine is going up top.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Ascending the turnbuckles is Kane.
>> [NOISE] >> [APPLAUSE] Missed it.
He missed it.
>> He missed the closeline.
Great crossline by Shawn Michaels even left his feet, and
did it again using allof his body weight to take down his larger opponent Well now,
Shawn Michaels is going on the outside, this, this maybe the answer.
>> Mr. McMahon was concerned, it's well founded.
>> He got it.
>> The elbow right to the sternum of Kane.
Will it be enough?
>> You got a cover now Shawn, you can't- >> And
Shawn Michaels more concerned about >> Mr McMahon than he is about Kane.
>> Not using [INAUDIBLE] >> Of course,
[INAUDIBLE] you wanna risk a disqualification, I don't think so.
>> Why not take the loss, I mean it's a [INAUDIBLE] he's gonna-
>> Go ahead, go ahead us it,
go ahead yeah go ahead.
Not only you lose the match,
also you're out of the Elimination Chamber this Sunday completely.
>> Whoa.
>> My God. >> Did you hear that?
>> Not only will he lose the match, he'll lose-
>> If you don't want this match,
go ahead and try and use it, go ahead.
>> Watch your back.
>> The distraction by, >> [INAUDIBLE]
That certainly is great.
Hey guys, on the young side,
I leave Shawn Michael is still a part of the elimination Taylor matches Sunday.
[INAUDIBLE] Then how is he gonna feel once he gets there?
>> I dont know but Mr.
McMahon has always been wanting to find humour in the misfortunes of others.
He's got to be very happy right now with Shawn Michaels laying flat on his back
