Stephanie McMahon & Kurt Angle Backstage Segment
Steph congratulates Kurt, not only for getting Austin ejected, but for beating her “soon to ex-husband” Triple H. Kurt thanks Steph for being, “fair and impartial in his match”. Steph over celebrates, just as Ric Flair walks into shot.
Flair gives credit to both, Stephanie and Kurt, but Steph doesn’t seem to think it’s genuine. Flair quickly changes his tone, and tells them he was so inspired by Angle’s win, he will make him face Triple H again tonight on RAW. Steph backs Kurt, and says, he already earned a title shot. “That is completely unfair”, states Stephanie. Flair responds, “Do you know what is fair, the winner of this match to go to WrestleMania… And if you get involved [Stephanie] in any shape or form, Triple H gets the title shot at WrestleMania against Jericho!”
A solid promo, to help build up towards the main event. Flair delivered his lines quickly, and the story makes sense. Flair aligning himself of course with his close friend, and Stephanie gloating with Kurt about Triple H.
