Umaga follows the Chairman of WWE as the next person to ringside. Remember, Umaga is representing Mr. McMahon and if he wins the match, Donald Trump will have his head shaved.
Donald Trump makes his way out to the tune of "Money, Money, Money." Trump is accompanied with a former Miss USA. Representing Donald Trump is ECW World Champion Bobby Lashley and he is the next person out to ringside. Lashley walks slowly to the ring with the ECW World Championship around his waist.
Stone Cold Steve Austin, the referee of the match, makes his way out to ringside in a traditional referee uniform with the sleeves cut out of the shirt. Austin pumps the crowd with his traditional middle finger salute.
The match begins as Umaga and Bobby Lashley go after each other. Control is neutral as Lashley and referee Steve Austin get into a mild confrontation over a rope break. Lashley takes it to Armando Estrada, throwing him in then out of the ring. Umaga tries to stop the attack but Lashley dodges the Samoan Bulldozer who goes to the outside.
