The show starts with a video for the Rated R Superstar, its a promo for his match at WM but looks like a trailer for a movie called, To The Edge.
Edge and Lita come out to the ring. Hes still carrying the spinner belt - surprising. Lots of boos for them. Lita takes a mic and accidentally coughs into it and breaks out laughing. The s**t chants start. She then says that coming to a WM near us is the champion, the Rated R superstar.
Edge then takes the mic and toots his own horn. He says hes not going to be a transitional champ like the Iron Sheik or Foley. Hes not going to loose the title 16 times like Flair. Hes not going to be come a walking joke like Flair. Edge says Flair isnt really walking after what happened last week. He says Flair wont be here tonight, nor will he get another title shot from him. Flair now has to go to the back of the line. We want Flair!!! chants. Edge says Cena will soon be joining Flair at the back of the line. Edge tells Cena that after he loses his career will be in the toilet. Then the fans will have to jump on a new bandwagon. Then he and Lita will go back to his house with the mirrors on the ceiling and the rotating bed to have a real celebration.
Cenas music hits and he comes out to the stage. The crowd sounds behind him. Cena says hes there to congratulate Edge for his movie trailer. But we dont know that the actual movie To The Edge is a classic. Hes going to review it for us. Its the story of boy meets ho. Not just a regular ho, but a magical red headed ho. Helps him win Money In The Bank. Takes her to Lake TaHO. Gets her potatoes from IdaHO. Traces her heritage to find out shes part NavaHO. But then the boy goes to Miami, Royal Rumble. The single biggest moment of his career. He stands in the ring and takes the worst ass kicking of his career.
Cena doesnt want to spoil the ending, but he loses his title, he loses his main event slot, he even loses his HO. She leaves him to shack up with Hacksaw Jim Duggan, HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! He goes from being rated R to rated G for Gonorrhea, a present from the HO.
Lita take the mic and says she doesnt know who this HO hes speaking of. She then says that they need to find partners for their match later. Since Cena cant find a partner he might have to play with himself.
Cena says its nice to see something of substance coming out of her mouth. Cena then says that now Edge is standing next to a bitch, but this Sunday hell be Cenas bitch.
