"Welcome to RAW ... is ... JERICHO! And I am the new Millennium for the World Wrestling Federation! Now for those of you who don't know me, I am Chris Jericho - your - your new hero, your party host and most importantly the most
charismatic showman to ever enter your living rooms via a television screen! And for those of you who DO know me, well, all hail the Ayatollah of Rock and Rollah! Now when you think of the new Millennium, you think of an event so gigantic that it changes the course of history. You think of the dawning of a
new era. In this case, the dawning of a New Era in the WWF! Thank you - thank you!. A new era is what this once proud and profitable company sorely needs! What was once a captivating, trendsetting program, has now deteriorated into a clichéd - let's be honest - BORING SNOOZEFEST that is in dire need of a knight in shining armour! And that's why I'm here! Chris Jericho has come to SAVE the WWF! Now let's go over the facts. Television ratings - downward spiral. Pay-per-view buyrates - plummeting. Mainstream acceptance - nonexistent. And reactions of the live crowd - complete and utter silence! And I know why you're silent! You're silent because you're
embarra**ed to be here! And quite honestly, I'm embarra**ed for you! And the reason why you're embarra**ed is because of the steady stream of uninteresting, untalented, mediocre 'sports entertainers' where you're forced to cheer for and care for - no wonder you're not cheering! You could care less about every single idiot in that dressing room...and especially this idiot [The Rock] in the centre of the ring. You people have been led to believe that mediocrity is excellence. Uh uh...JERICHO IS EXCELLENCE. And now, for the first time in WWF history, you have a man who can entertain you! You have a man who is good enough for you! You have a man who can make you jump up off your chairs, raise your filthy fat little hands in the air and scream 'Go Jericho Go! Go Jericho Go! Go Jericho Go!' Thank you. The new Millennium has arrived in the
WWF - and now that the Y2J problem is here - this company, from the front office idiots to all the amateurs in the dressing room (including this one) to everybody watching tonight, will never - e-e-e-ever - be the same - agayn!"
The Rock: "After three boring minutes The Rock says: Know your role and shut your mouth! How dare you, little jabroni, come on The Rock's show and not even have the cla** to introduce yourself. What is your name?"
Jericho: "I told you, it's..."
The Rock: "It doesn't matter what your name is! The Rock says that you talk about your Y2J plan. Well, The Rock has a little plan of his own. And it's called the KY Jelly plan. Which means The Rock is going to take his size 13 boot, lube it up real good, turn that sum-b**h sideways, and stick it straight up your candy a**! If ya smmmmmellllllllllll... what The Rock... is cookin'!"
