Raw returned with Chris Jericho still seated in the ring with a mic in hand. He remained silent for a bit as the fans made noise, then finally spoke. Jericho said he's not going anywhere until he gets what he wants. He said he'd sit in the ring all night until he gets an email from the Raw GM re-inserting him into the Six Pack Challenge on Sunday. Jericho demanded justice, tonight, saying if he doesn't get what he wants, then he'd quit. Jericho said he'd go home and watch the WWE burn up in flames, and laugh every step of the way. Jericho demanded a response, asking "so what's it gonna be?"

There was no email, so Jericho said he'd track down the GM and expose his identity to the entire world. Just then, the email sound chimed as the lights flashed. Cole started to talk and Jericho said "Of course you have an email you idiot just read it." Cole read the Raw GM's email saying that the GM doesn't like ultimatums and there's no chance in hell he's going to honor it. Jericho said it's not Vince McMahon because he's no coward and would fire him face-to-face.

The lights flashed and the email sound came through. Cole started to ask for everyone's attention and again Jericho told him to just shut up and read it. The GM's new email said he decided to make it a Six Pack Challenge Elimination match, with the competitors getting eliminated one-by-one until there's a sole winner. He said he decided to put Jericho back in, however. Jericho interrupted and said to give him his moment. He vowed to win the WWE Title on Sunday. The email sound chimed and the GM's email said "Don't ever interrupt me again." It said Jericho needs to win his match, right now. The GM continued, saying it would be a handicap match with Jericho going against the tag team champs, The Hart Dynasty in a Steel Cage match. The cage started to lower and Jericho wnet over to Cole demanding he tell him who sent the message.
