Recap of Evo beating down Eugene.
No intro, HHH comes out to start. He says that he isn’t proud of himself for what happened last week. He admits to doing a lot of low things in his career, but last week was below him, and what he did to Eugene made him feel rotten. Then he started to question himself as to how he felt about poor innocent Eugene then he farted, and he felt better. HAHA. He has something to say to Eugene, who is at home. He tells Eugene to get close to the TV so he can say ‘I HATE YOU.’ HAHA. He then says that Evolution hates him, and that he was never part of it. He then says that everybody hates Eugene. He says that Eugene is an embarrassment, and that everyone is ashamed of him, even his mother, Mrs. Dinsmore (HA! Storyline continuity!). He says that Eugene has no place in the ring, no place in the business, and should not try to be normal. He then calls Eugene pathetic. He has some footage of how pathetic Eugene is after last week with Regal and Benoit. The footage shows Benoit and Regal crying about Eugene being hurt. Bischoff comes out, and says that he talked to Mrs. Dinsmore, and that Eugene is history. He then says that he will reward HHH, and gives him a match with Benoit next week for the Title, in a 60 minute Iron Man Match. He then gives HHH the night off, but puts Benoit in a match with Batista tonight. Regal then comes out, saying that those 2 seem to be so proud of themselves, and says that he is not scared of HHH. Regal then says that this is for Eugene, takes off his jacket, and starts to tangle with HHH. Regal is pounding on HHH, and Bischoff calls for security to come out, and they restrain Regal.
Tonight, the Vengeance Rematch, as Edge defends the IC Title against Orton.

Chris Jericho’s Hi-Light Reel
Jericho’s guests are the 10 RAW Divas. Jericho says that voting starts tonight at 10 EST, and the person with the least votes is out. There is no way Carmella doesn’t win. Jericho says that there is an immunity envelope in Bischoff’s office, and the person who finds it can not be eliminated. Jericho then wants the girls to follow him, and he hops the wall, with all of them to fallow. He then leads them to Bischoff’s office, and casually hits on some of them. They get to the office, and they start tearing the place apart. I am strangely reminded of Finders Keepers. Bischoff comes in, and yells at them all. Bischoff wants some answers, as it seems that Jericho exited. Bischoff belittles them, and reminds them all that he is in charge, and wants to know what’s going on. I don’t think the girls knew this was going to happen, some of them are laughing, and Bischoff yells at them some more. One of the girls told him that Jericho said there was an immunity envelope in his office. He kicks them all out. Pretty good segment actually.

JR announces that McMahon, Foley and Stacy will be a part of the Democratic convention.
Recap of the Diva Special last week, Coach was hilarious.
The Diva girls come out again in Bikini’s. My only prediction is that the twins will not win, because they can not be split up. Being twins got them to the finals, but being twins will not get either one of them the win. I think Carmella will win, hands down.
