"You're the host? I'm the host."

Chris Jericho: "Look at all the people here tonight... and every single one of ya is a jackass. [Buhrufe] Oh, come on! You know it's true, you know it's true. But you should be thankful and you should be very excited that you'll get to be a part of a monumental night, the very first edition--the very first international edition of the hottest new show on tv, the hottest new segment on RAW, Chris Jericho's Highlight Reel! [Ein Clip wird eingespielt, der das Logo vom Highlight Reel zeigt.] Oh yeah, oh yeah! Please, please, you Newcastle tossers need to shut up and listen to me. [Buhrufe] Oh, so you don't like being called a tosser, huh? This guy holds up a sign that says 'Jericho sucks'. ["You suck!"]

You guys are just proving to me what I've been saying all along, that this is a city without class. This is a city without class, it's a city without culture. I'll be honest with ya, as a matter of fact I'm glad that Liverpool won the City of Culture Award. You don't deserve it. You don't deserve to be culture people. Let me look, you can't even put together a proper Highlight Reel set. Look at this thing! Look at this peace of crap! Look at this, this is what your city provided for my show, okay? Where is the Jeritron 5000? It's supposed to be right here. There's supposed to be like a Salvadore Dali type thing right there, something else over here--instead I've got a cheasy red carpet that's souped in beer and smells of fish and chips. And a couple of cheap-ass bar stools that came from the local Irish Pub down the streets.

I am the... I am the highlight of the night. I'm not some kind of a loser coach like Bobby Robson, okay? [Buhrufe] But... but, but, but, but... I'm a professional, I will rise above this, this absurd situation that I've been put in. I'm gonna bring out my guest. You're gonna like this. He is the co-presenter of Insurrextion--aha! He's my favorite man on the entire RAW roster, he is the Co-GM on RAW and he is one sexy-looking bloke as well. Ladies and Gentlemen, your friend and mine: Eric Bischoff!

[Bischoff kommt zum Ring und umarmt Jericho mehrfach.]

Eric Bischoff in the hizouse, Ladies and Gentlemen!"

["Asshole! Asshole!"]

Eric Bischoff: "Oh, shut the hell up! You know, Chris, I think you were being a little hard to this people. Yeah, I really think you were. I mean, after all... look at them and then look at us! I mean, two great looking, successful Americans ["What?!"] and a rear full of people and I swear to god there is not a full set of decent dental work in the entire arena."

Chris Jericho: "Hahaha, that's the truth, though. Look at this guy right there!"

Eric Bischoff: "And how about this one? I mean they got rid of mad cow disease but what about fat cow disease? For crying out loud, get a stair master, would ya?!"

Chris Jericho: "I'm begging you. [Die Fans betiteln dann Bischoff als "Fat Bastard".] You call him a fat bastard?"

Eric Bischoff: "You know... Hey, hey, hey, I dare you. Go home, tell your parents that!"

[Stone Cold Steve Austins Musik ertönt und er betritt unter ohrenbetäubenden Jubel den Ring. Dort angekommen steigt er wie gewohnt auf alle vier Ringecken. Danach wirft er den ersten Barhocker aus dem Ring.]

Chris Jericho: "Aaaah, wait, Steve, come on! [Austin hat den zweiten Stuhl bereits in den Händen.] Come on, this is my set. [Austin stellt den Stuhl wieder hin. Als Jericho sich dem Stuhl nähert, wirft Austin diesen dann doch aus dem Ring.] Aaah-ah! As much as I hate to admit it, it seems like there are a lot of Stone Cold Steve Austin fans here in Newcastle tonight."

Eric Bischoff: "Yeah, but you know what? Steve I don't know what, I don't know what the hell you're doing here. This is--I am the guest on the Highlight Reel. I was invited by Chris. This is my-- You are-- I get a little tired of this situation. You can't just show up, start changing matches, doing whatever the hell it is you wanna do. I am the Co--[in Richtung Publikum] Shut up!--GM--Shut up! It's about time I think you start showing me some respect."

Steve Austin: "You may wanna take a look at the base tone of your voice when you talk to me. I come out here-- You guys ruin a perfectly good pay per view with the ABSOLUTE WORST Highlight Reel I've ever seen in my life. And you come in to talk about that trash-- I'm tryin' to make a little intro to you and tried to get rid of this garbage and a little of the bar stools there. And sometimes, I think, you know we make this Co-GM thing, you don't really understand what I'm saying to ya. So, if you don't understand what I'm saying to ya, look at this son of a bitch right there. [zeigt Bischoff den Mittelfinger] And as far as I'm concerned, it's good to-- [wendet sich an Jericho] You're the host?"

Chris Jericho: "I'm the host."

Steve Austin: "You're the host?"

Chris Jericho: "Yes, I'm the host."

Steve Austin: "You're the host."

Chris Jericho: "I'm the host."

Steve Austin: "You're the host? I gotta stare, I gotta take a look at this. This is a ?-looking little uniform, but I went down to the gimmick stores where I'll gonna buy one of your T-shirts."

Chris Jericho: "Thank you. You're a big fan of Chris Jericho, are ya?"

Steve Austin: "No, I'm not a big fan. They run out of toilet paper. And I don't know why you guys are bitchin' so much about being in Newcastle. I had a great time since I've been here. I rode in the last night-- Hell, I had one pint, ["What?!"] two pints, ["What?!"] three pints, ["What?!"] four pints, ["What?!"] five pints, ["What?!"] six pints, ["What?!"] seven pints, ["What?!"] eight pints, ["What?!"] nine pints, ["What?!"] ten pints, ["What?!"] eleven pints, ["What?!"] twelve pints, ["What?!"] thirteen pints, ["What?!"] fourteen pints, ["What?!"] fifteen pints, ["What?!"] sixteen pints, ["What?!"] seventeen pints, ["What?!"] eighteen pints, ["What?!"] nineteen pints, ["What?!"] TWENTY pints!"

Eric Bischoff: "Steve Austin, I'm glad you're having a hell of a good time with all these people, I really am. I'm glad you enjoy the UK, but I wanna talk to you about respect. I wanna talk to you about the 50:50 Co-GM arrangement that we have, 'cause this is not working out the way it should be."

Steve Austin: "Wait a minute, the more I can listen-- [wendet sich an Jericho] Would you come a little bit closer, you're part of this. You're the host. [spricht wieder zu Bischoff] What do you say, it's not working out 50:50? [und nun erneut zu Y2J] Hold on, I'm not talking to you yet! Oh, you're the host, you can buy as many time as you want. [wieder zu "Easy E"] What was that about the 50:50?"

Eric Bischoff: "I'm saying I don't like the way it's working out. It's 50:50, neutral decisions. You can't go around changing matches any time you feel like."

Chris Jericho: "Yeah!"

Steve Austin: "Hah c'mon, every single time we get out in the ring you're whinin' and cryin' and pissin' and moanin' and bitchin' about every single thing I do."

Eric Bischoff: "I'm not whining, I'm not crying and I'm not pissing and moaning. I'm pointing out a fact."

Steve Austin: "If you think Eric Bishoff is pissing, moaning and bitching give me a 'Hell Yeah!' ["Hell Yeah!"] That's what I thought. And you know what? Look at me! [Austin wendet sich spontan zu Jericho] How are you doin'? [Jericho schlägt Austins Hand weg, daraufhin gibt es "Austin"-Chants] Are you boing up to me?"

Chris Jericho: [kleinlaut] "Stop putting your hands on me, man!"

Steve Austin: "Are you a manly man?"

Chris Jericho: "Don't touch me, man!"

Steve Austin: "You see that brandnew Nike tennis shoes? You'll better be careful. I'll take this shoe off and stick it straight up your ass. [Austins Worte richten sich nun an Bischoff] And sometimes I think--you know you had--What?--You had a glass of wine last night. You got a little tipsy and I knew you wouldn't be thinking on your toes tonight, so I went ahead and changed a match earlier and--"

Eric Bischoff: "Changed what?! You changed what?"

Steve Austin: "You know I changed that match earlier with the Dudley Boyz. Well, I changed another match. ["What?!"] I said I changed another match. ["What?!"] I changed another match. ["What?!"] I CHANGED a match.''

Eric Bischoff: "You can't do that."

Steve Austin: "I just did it. Now, if you allow me to and if you'll stop interrupting--wouldn't you unbutton this damn thing? [öffnet Bischoffs Lederjacke] That looks like crap. Does he look better now? [verhaltener Jubel] I know he don't but it sounded good. Yeah, well, I changed another match. You know that match tonight between Kevin Nash... and Triple H..."

Eric Bischoff: "What about it?"

Steve Austin: "...for the world title..."

Eric Bischoff: "Yes?"

Steve Austin: "Well it ain't just any old match anymore. It's gonna be a good ol' fashioned street fight." [lauter Jubel der Fans]

Eric Bischoff: "I'm telling Linda McMahon..."

Chris Jericho: "Hold on, hold on, hold on a second!"

Steve Austin: "What?"

Chris Jericho: "This is my show and I do not appreciate Steve Austin coming to the ring... ["What?!"] here in the UK--["What?!"] home of the Beatles, ["What?!"] the Rolling Stones, ["What?!"] The Who, ["What?!"] Ozzy Osbourne, ["What?!"] Iron Maiden, ["What?!"] Oasis, ["What?!"] David Beckham, ["What?!"] the Spice Girls, ["What?!"] the Roll the Dice Girls, ["What?!"] the Rice Girls, ["What?!"] the Mice Girls ["What?!"]--I am the host of this show and you will show me some respect, whether you're the Co-GM or not, junior!"

Steve Austin: "I'm trying very hard to maintain my composure. If you want me to lose my composure give me a 'Hell Yeah!' ["Hell Yeah!"] You're really lucky because I don't feel extremely violent today. Don't get me wrong, I still feel violent. But if it's alright with my 50:50 Co-GM guy-- Come on in here, you little peace of trash! Don't you just love this stupid haircut of his? This was your Highlight Reel, I interrupted it--but I'm Co-GM. I've got things to do here and I'll make another decision for you. You feel like drinking some beer with Stone Cold Steve Austin?"

Eric Bischoff: "Yeah, absolutely!"

Steve Austin: [zu Jericho] "Do you wanna drink some beer?"

Chris Jericho: "If you wanna see Chris Jericho drink a beer with Steve Austin say 'do-wah diddy-diddy dam diddy-do!'" [Die Fans sprechen dies tatsächlich nach.]

Steve Austin: "I never in a million years would have believed that this was gonna happen. But it just did, so give me some beer!

[Austin holt das Bier und nachdem alle angestoßen haben gibt es den obligatorischen Stunner für Chris Jericho. Danach gibt es weitere "Austin"-Chants.]

Now, I told you that I was only feeling a little bit violent. So, you're gonna get out the hook tonight. It's like Linda McMahon said, we gotta be cool, we gotta be cool. It's 50:50, you and me got to get along. You and me got to get along. We're supposed to get along in the States--this is the UK!'' [Bischoff bekommt ebenfalls den Stunner und Austin feiert. Bevor er geht, gibt es noch eine Rechte für Jericho und ein weiteres Bier.]
