Recap of Orton/Cena last night.
No opening or pyro. Orton comes right out. Orton says that he must be dreaming, because he had the match won last night, and no way Cena should be the Champion right now, and he wants a rematch. This brings out Cena, who stops to say Hi to his father who is sitting ringside. Cena basically calls Orton a crybaby, and said that he just couldn’t get the job done last night. Cena says that the past few weeks, Orton has been kicking his ass all over the place, making a statement…so he has a statement for Orton…’THE CHAMP IS HERE.’ Cena says that he is sure Orton will get another shot at the title, but he lost, and he goes down, and others move up. So, he says that there is someone who made his comeback, and he wants to make Cena vs. HHH tonight for the WWE Title! William Regal then comes out, and Cena wants him to make it happen. Regal says that neither Orton or HHH will face Cena tonight. Regal says that there is someone else who wants to forget about SummerSlam, and he will face Cena tonight…KING BOOKER! Booker comes out, and while Cena is distracted with him, Orton tries a blindside RKO…but Cena shoves him off, and Orton gets right out of the ring, and throws a hissy fit.

Carlito says that tonight’s Cabana will be the coolest in history. He then introduces his guest, Mr. McMahon.

He says that he will not be held down by this, and that everyone eventually answers to him. Carlito then agrees with him. This brings out HHH. His new shirt makes me want to watch Army of Darkness. HHH says that he did extensive research, and has found a bunch of woman who could be the mother of his bastard son. He then, game show style, brings out 3 women…and a transvestite, who has had relations with McMahon…including Carlito’s sister. He does give a bit of backround on each. McMahon flips out on HHH, and says that he wish HHH never came back, and Vince walked away. Carlito gets in HHH’s face, and spits apple at him. HHH laughs it off, then hits a spinebuster then Pedigree.
