-We open with JBL and Shawn inside JBL's limo. JBL tells Shawn he's competing against Cena tonight and then its on to Wrestlemania. JBL says he knows Shawn thinks it could have been him, but he fell on hard times. He tells him tonight he's not fighting for a title, but for his employer. JBL tells him tonight he can consider this his Wrestlemania. Shawn shoots him a disgusted look as JBL leaves the limo.
-Stephanie McMahon joins us to tell us we're two weeks from the Royal Rumble. She says we're looking forward to the Rumble and also to next week when her father returns to Raw. She begins to suck up to Dad when Chris Jericho interrupts. Jericho informs her that she is a liar. He says she's no worse than the hypocrites in the arena. He tells Steph she is scared to death of her Dad's return because she's not running the show anymore. Jericho says when Vince returns he will listen to Jericho's protest and remove JBL and insert Jericho into the title match. Jericho goes on to say Vince knows how to run this show. Stephanie tells him Raw is her show. Stephanie says her dad supports her. Jericho asks her if he supported her decision to make Mike Adamle the GM. He says Adamle lowered the bar so far that he made Steph seem competent by example. Stephanie corrects him by saying Adamle was Shane's call. She goes on to tell him if he spent as much time worrying about his career as he did her leadership skills maybe he'd still be World Champion. Stephanie says the World Title contract is done and will be signed next week in the ring. She tells him to focus on the Royal Rumble because thats the closest to the title he's going to get. She starts to tell him he has a match tonight, but Jericho interrupts saying he will not compete until the title is on the line. He says he's above that. Stephanie angerly shoots back that he's not above that or anyone else in the arena. Jericho says he's done talking to her, because she's a lame duck. The real McMahon is coming back next week. She tells him its not next week its this week and she's still in charge. He asks her what she's gonna do about it? Stephanie informs him that he lost his chance to compete in the Rumble and that he'll never compete for the World Title. Jericho says he doesn't give a damn what she says. Stephanie tells him to give a damn about this and informs him that he's FIRED! She walks off and Y2J is left with a blank stare.
