A highlight package is shown from Raw last week to open festivities tonight with Heyman threatening Goldberg if he inteferes with the main event on sunday night at No Way Out. Goldberg's response, simple, "Brock Lesnar is next."

A promo of the main event tonight, a tag match with Kurt Angle teaming with Latino Heat Eddie Guerrero as they will face the WWE champion Brock Lesnar, and the WWE US Champion the Big Show.

Rey Mysterio hits the ring with Jorge Paez in his corner for a non title match. Paez will be in Rey's corner sunday for the title match vs. Chavo Guerrero on sunday in San Francisco. Tajiri comes out for the matchup against the cruiserweight title holder. Mysterio beat Tajiri for the strap a few weeks back.

Match #1
Non Title Affair
Rey Mysterio vs. Tajiri

Chavo Guerrero and Chavo Guerrero, Sr. enter the staging area at the beginning of the match following a Mysterio bulldog on Tajiri, allowing Tajiri to get the advantage, and begin a beatdown on the cruiserweight title holder. Tajiri put Mysterio in a camel clutch which Mysterio broke up, following getting the grip released with a drop kick to the face on the Japanese Buzzsaw. One missed 619, but a kick to the face set up for the 619 connection on Tajiri, followed up by a senton splash for the 3 count. Immediately after the three count, Chavo Guerrero ambushes Mysterio. Chavo begins trash talking Mysterio when Jorge Paez comes in to the ring questioning what's going on. Chavo runs for cover, but Chavo, Sr. enters the ring, and challenges the featherweight. Paez does some dancing around, jumps around like a reverse worm, and then cold cocks Chavo, Sr. right in the face with a left hand, BAM, down goes Senior, and he ain't gettin' up. Chavo, Jr. tries to go to his father's aide, but Paez stays in the way, motioning for Chavo to come get some. Chavo wants no part of the featherweight boxer.

WINNER: Rey Mysterio

Cole and Tazz are admonishing Goldberg for his treatment of Paul Heyman Monday night on Raw. The highlight package is shown of Heyman getting speared by Goldberg, then we immediately switch to the back, where Lesnar is pacing in Heyman's office.

Lesnar tries to understand the events of the past few days. Lesnar wants to know the message Goldberg is sending. Heyman says Goldberg is trying to intimidate Lesnar. Lesnar says Goldberg does not intimidate him. Lesnar repeats Heyman's statement from monday night, when he's done with Goldberg, they'll not be chanting "Who's next?", they'll be chanting, "Who's Goldberg?"

Match #2
Scotty Too Hotty (w/Rikishi) vs. Danny Basham (w/Doug & Shaniqua)

Last week's highlight package is shown of Kish and Scotty winning tag team gold after five years of tagging together. On Sunday, they put the gold on the line in a handicap match against the Basham Brothers and Shaniqua. Cole asks if Shaniqua gets the pinfall in that match, who would become the tag team champions.

Back and forth action begin the contest with Scotty getting a brief advantage following a countered backdrop. Back and forth action continue, little momentum until Doug pulls the rope down, throwing Scotty outside. Shaniqua clotheslines Scotty, throws Scotty back in for a two count by Danny. Kish never got to the scene to equalize the odds in time.

A spinning back suplex by Danny Basham, and a cover on the neck is the focus of the challengers on sunday night against the worm. Worm gets some momentum back with a jawbreaker and a backdrop. He goes for the worm bulldog, misses it, and in the corner gets clotheslined by Danny, and pinned with some help by Doug. Rikishi comes to the aide, clobbers Doug and Danny, Shaniqua runs in to the ring, gets bulldogged by Scotty, and misses a banzai drop by inches before the Bashams save her from certain doom.

WINNER: Danny Basham

Rey calls the Chavos a bunch of cowards. He says Paez is watching Rey's back. He tells Josh that he's earned everything he's gotten in 10 years in the business, and that on sunday night, it's on with him and Chavo. It's on.

In the back, Chavo, Sr. is being attended to, as Chavo, Jr. is going nuts claiming his father wasn't ready for that punch. Chavo claims he's gonna take Rey's title and mask, and that Senior will beat up Jorge Paez. Chavo, Senior stops Chavo in his tracks, and says "WHAT?", as the segment ends.

Match #3
Hardcore Holly vs. Rhyno

Cole applauds Holly for his effort against Kurt Angle last week. Rhyno piefaced Holly to get him pissed off, but Holly hit him with a go behind and took Rhyno off his feet. Rhyno piefaced him again, and Holly began chopping the man beast down. Holly chops down Rhyno repeatedly like he was a cherry tree. Rhyno goes for a powerbomb position, Holly tries to stop it by blocking his legs with the turnbuckles, but Rhyno drops Holly on the top turnbuckle, head first. Rhyno has Hardcore Holly in a full body scissors (yes, a full body scissors), in the middle of the ring. Crowd reaction for this match is minimal at best. Holly rolled Rhyno on his back to break the hold, and get a near fall. 2 chops, and then Rhyno hits Holly with an Arn Anderson-esque spine buster. Rhyno sets up for the gore, and it gets countered with a standing drop kick. 2 count by Holly. Rhyno gets Holly in the corner, beats on him, throws the referee away, which causes the referee to ring the bell. Rhyno jawjacks with the official, and then Holly throws Rhyno and himself out of the ring as they begin to beat on each other some more. Cole and Tazz suspect Rhyno was disqualified as they just rip and tear at each other until the cameras run to the back where the EMTS are running toward someone.

The EMTs arrive at a prone, motionless Kurt Angle, with Orlando Jordan standing above him. They begin to work on the olympic gold meadlist as Smackdown fades to break.

In the back, Angle is being worked on, as a ton of questioning superstars try to figure out what happened to him. In the ring, a mariachi band begins playing. Brock Lesnar is introduced as the band leader, coming out wearing a sombrero. Lesnar says he owes the fans and Eddie an explanation. He is throwing Eddie a celebration tonight, because on sunday night, he will not have anything to celebrate about. He calls out Eddie Guerrero, as the mariachi band continues to play. Guerrero speeds to the ring, the mariachi band goes flying, and Lesnar ducks for cover as the equipment goes flying.

Brock tells Eddie to relax, that he is throwing a celebration for him tonight. Lesnar claims Eddie is always fighting the odds, that he is a fighter. He stops the cheering for Eddie, and says, "Listen here, addict." He claims that sunday night, Eddie is not fighting the odds, he's fighting Brock Lesnar, and that he is going to torture him. Lesnar says that when Eddie was a recovering addict, he was on the way to becoming the youngest WWE champion in history. Lesnar hopes Eddie is addicted to losing.

Eddie says you want to go down the addiction road, fine. Let's go straight up, according to Latino Heat. Truth is, Eddie says, I am an addict. 3 years ago, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the locker room shower, Eddie was high, high, high. He doesn't remember much about that night, except about getting carried out of that arena, and straight in to rehab. Eddie says he was the one who did that to himself. In that three years, he lost his job, wife, kids, and himself. He came to a point, Eddie did, of either do or die. And he has succeeded, he has earned his way back in this ring. Day by day, he has earned his life back. He looks at the WWE title, and says that the belt is a symbol of saying he's sorry to his family. The title is his new addiction. He is addicted to the high he gets from the fans and his family. Eddie is addicted to the do or die feeling he is going to have on sunday night at No Way Out. He will do anything, because he is an addict, and run over anybody to get the job done, and get the high of the WWE title around his waist.

Noble says he should've dumped Nidia right away because he could've had any woman he wanted. He wants all the fancy stuff that Noble has purchased for her all the way back, returned. He wants all that stuff, and her things, out of his house, and he'll cancel the match.
