Interview:
The Rock and Triple H face-off

("The Game" by Motorhead played as Horsemen Triple H came to the ring to boos
from the crowd.)

Triple H: When you think of what a champion is supposed to be, you think of a
man who refuses to back down or decline a challenge. When you think of what a
champion is supposed to be, a vivid image comes to mind and that image is of an
athlete who is primed and ready every night of his title reign to expect a
challenge from someone. Rock! You're the champion and I want a re-match for the
PWF World Heavyweight Championship.

("Know Your Role" by Jim Johnston played as PWF World Heavyweight Champion The
Rock came to the ring to huge cheers from the crowd.)

The Rock: Triple H, that picture of what a champion should be is looking you
dead in the eyes. Triple H, nobody knows what being a champion is like better
than The Rock. I live and breathe it. I bust my ass to hold onto this title
while people like you come after me and look to knock me down. Triple H, I
handled you before and you want, I'll be the champion and handle you again.
Great American Bash is going to be a night where we all see what a champion is
and what goes into being the champ!

("Know Your Role" by Jim Johnston played as The Rock left the ring to huge
cheers from the crowd.)

Interview:
Sting announces his retirement

("Black Dog" by Led Zeppelin played as Sting came to the ring to cheers from
the crowd.)

Sting: I never expected to even make it this far in the business where I'd be
given the chance to come out here and speak to all of you fans like this, but
I have made it this far and there comes a time when it's your turn to take that
final long walk back from the ring and never go back. That day is August 26,
2007 at the Great American Bash. August 26th is my retirement date and I've
got one match left in me and I want it to be against the hardest working
individual I've ever come across. Bret Hart, come on out here.

("Hart Attack" by Jim Johnston played as Bret Hart came to the ring to huge
cheers from the crowd.)

Bret Hart: Sting, it's terrific to see man have a chance to ride off into the
sunset and have it done in proper fashion. Sting, you were the man in WCW for
a period of time and you are one of the better professionals out here. Sting,
I would be honored to wrestle you in your retirement match and would just like
to say, thank you.

(Hart and Sting shook hands as the fans cheered.)
