Start of the Show:
Before we can even get to the Raw fireworks, Shawn Michaels’ music hits and he makes his way to the ring to a giant reaction from the Montreal crowd. The first thing he says when he gets on the mic is “Who’s your Daddy Montreal?” This starts the usual you screwed Bret chants. HBK says since they have all been so respectful to him, he would like to return the favor. He then starts singing the Canadian National anthem but he says how much he hates this place and how he’s going to kick Hogan in the face. He admits that he is no singer and the crowd is HOT. He then calls himself the showstopper, the main event, the icon… more heat from the crowd. The crowd starts to call him an asshole as he talks about giving the crowd memories. He then recalls the Survivor Series 1997. He handed Canada’s own, Bret “The Hitman” Hart, his most miserable defeat. The crowd chants that they want Bret and HBK asks them if they want him? They roar. He says he’s they are not going to get thim because he screwed him and he’d do it again. HBK then says if Hart were here, if he had the guts, he’d come to this ring, look HBK face to face and HBK would say “Bret, I screwed you once, I’d screw you again..” At this point the music of BRET HART hits. HBK looks worried but nobody in on the ramp yet…. there is a long pause, HBK dances in the ring. The music stops and the crowd is IRATE as HBK says he got their hopes up just a little bit! HBK then says these people will never, EVER hear or SEE Bret Hart inside a WWE ring again. Shawn Michaels talks about Bret some more, then talks about Hogan. Hogan’s music hits but he doesn’t show either. This makes the crowd goes crazy. HBK says Hogan and Bret Hart, even if they WERE coming, aren’t here yet because their limos would never show up on time, that’s just not the way it goes. The crowd chants “Nah nah nah nahhh, Goobye” at Shawn Michaels but he lays in the ring and isn’t going anywhere! HBK says Hogan stood for something that had no realism in his life. He says there isn’t once ounce of realism on Hogan’s body. The crowd then gets REALLY on HBK and starts chanting for him to “shut the f**k up!” HBK asks if they talk to their kids like that. He says all these people do is stand there and talk it while he walks it! HBK gets close to the camera and talks about Hogan some more. He says Hogan is one step away from his star being snuffed out. Don’t believe him? Just ask Bret Hart! HBK leaves the ring as the crowd REALLY laces into him with boos.
