~ Raw comes on the air with Michael Cole meeting up with Vince McMahon who's conversing with the Stooges.

Vince explains a tag team elimination tournament will indeed be held tonight to determine the new #1 contendors The winners of each match will meet in a battle royal to see who faces the Dudleys at Wrestlemania. Pat Patterson then begs Vince to tell them about "the big one" but Vince isn't ready to reveal his surprise just yet; all he says is this match if it is signed will rock the WWF down to its very foundation. Sounds intriguing. Cole mentions the WWF's appearence on Saturday Night Live this past weekend and Vince decides to use its opening to lead into the credits. (more...)

LAST WEEK, the face squadron displays more squabbling and in-fighting than the Full-Blooded Italians. The introductory video package, which effectively illustrates the overriding theme that team success can only be accomplished when each member completely and totally commits to a shared philosophy (while abandoning the petty, personal shit), is practically sagacious, as far as pro-wrestling is concerned.

We’re LIVE ENOUGH, from San Antonio. The show opens with John Cena, and since Texans are marginally more sensible than most people give us credit for, he’s greeted with a hearty cavalcade of contempt. Once on the mic, Cena is given the delicate task of both promoting Nexus as an industry-threatening, indescribably evil organization, whilst also insisting that it ain’t no thang, because he’ll beat them anyway. It’s a tight rope to walk, and he pulls it off as well as anyone could expect, really.
