Before Vince can finish his sentence, Kurt Angle's music plays as he makes his way to the ring.
Vince McMahon tells Kurt that he knows why he came out, because Kurt wants to say that he was unfairly defeated last week. Then Vince says maybe that's not why he's here, the real reason is because he wants a rematch tonight! But Vince says it's not gonna happen. As Vince runs through possibilities of why Kurt is here tonight, he settles on the fact that Kurt is here to congratulate Brock. Kurt grabs the mic and says he not here to congratulate Brock, but to kick his ass. Kurt says one of two things will happen, Angle will beat the hell out of Lesnar in the ring or in the backstage area.
Suddenly John Cena's music hits, and he makes his way to the ring. But Angle is in no mood to mince words or hear Cena's tradmark rap, as he wails on him knocking Cena out of the ring. angle then says that he's determined to get his hands on Lesnar, as he leaves the ring area in search for The Champion.

Championship presentation:
Vince McMahon is standing center of the ring, along with the beautiful Sable. He wastes no time in introducing the new WWE Champion, Brock Lesnar.
Ring announcer Tazz says you can be proud of. Michael Cole disagrees, stating Lesnars dispicable actions against Zack Gowen, pushing him down a flight of stairs.
Vince says that Lesnar is the new face of Smackdown! "This face, this champion is unstoppable!" Vince publicly congratulates Lesnar, and hands him the mic. The fans begin to chant, "You tapped out!" Vince tells them to all "Shut up!"
Lesnar speaks: "Say what you will because I'am the new WWE Champion.!" First and foremost Vince, I want to thankyou, because it was you who helped remind me of exactly who I'am! Yes I'am the Real Brock Lesnar, so deal w/ it. Secondly, I've got a few words for Angle, last week I had you in the palm of my hands, I had you exactly where I wanted you during the entire match Kurtis."
He goes on to say that Vince is right in saying that he's, Unstoppable! Suddenly The Undertaker's music hits, as he makes his way to ringside on a motor cycle!
Taker says that he respects the title, but he doesn't respect Lesnar. Taker goes on to to talk about how he wont forgive Lesnar for interfering in his championship match w/ Angle weeks ago. He then tells Lesnar to enjoy the belt, hang onto it real tight, heck even sleep w/ it, because Lesnar's first title defence is against The Undertaker. Vince questions who could make such a match?
Stepahanie McMahon's music then hits as she makes her way to the ring. She grabs the mic and responds w/ "On my authority, Dad!" She says Lesnar will defend his belt at No Mercy against Brock Lesnar. Vince says that if Steph doesn't take back her decision then she will be forced to face Vince McMahon at No Mercy, in a first ever "Father Vs. Daughter Match," catchy huh?
Stephanie says she's not changing her mind. Vince then goes to strike his daughter, The Taker stops him in his tracks, allowing Lesnar to nail The Taker w/ the Championship belt. Lesnar then puts the boots to Big Evil. He starts yelling at him, but Taker grabs Lesnar by the throat, executes a choke slam from hell! Taker poses w/ the title as Smackdown! goes off the air. Click
