I have decided to change who that is." Brown looks a little nervous.

you won't mind me beating the h*ll out of him tonight, cause that's just
what I'm going to do." Owens takes the mic back, "Nothing would
make me happier. Enjoy yourself tonight. But remember, next time, you'll
have a real challenger."

of the ring to get out of the way. Landel begins to slide the baseball bat
into the ring. Venom comes up from behind him with a chain wrapped around
his fist. He clobbers Landel in the back of the head. The bat falls outside
of the cage. Venom passes the chain to Maverick inside of the cage. Maverick
wraps is around his fist and decks Cole. Inside of the ring, Rockamora has
Link hooked for "The Howl." Helms is down with Maniac Mike astride
him, punching him repeatedly. The Rock nails Link with his finisher. As

fist wrapped with the chain. Rockamora is out, blood is dripping from his
head. Maverick then grabs Maniac Mike and tosses him over the top rope.
