What other way to start off the show than with a gaggle of McMahons. We see Vince McMahon with his pronounced walk, his son Shane, and his daughter Stephanie. Vince has a mic and he is going to use it. He welcomes everyone to Raw. Fifteen years ago, he created a show that was uncut, uncooked, and uncensored. It is now the longest running prime time entertainment show in history. Tonight, it is going to be a family reunion. Vince points out that his wife Linda could not be here tonight because of a gastro-intestinal problem. Vince introduces the former Hardcore and European Champion, his son Shane. He also introduces the former Women’s champion, his daughter Stephanie. Vince looks for the photographer. Before the photo can be taken, Hornswoggle runs to the ring for the photo. Vince introduces his bastard and has his son Shane pull him off. Vince says that each of them are waiting for him to die to inherit his vast fortune. Vince tells Shane that he loves him. He tells Stephanie that he loves her. Vince says that he kind of loves Hornswoggle. Vince says that he loves everyone in the building. It is time for the photo.
There is another family member who is running a little late, as Triple H’s music plays. Hunter comes to the ring and Vince wants to know what he is doing here. He says that he is waiting for the pop to die down. Hunter tells Vince that it is supposed to be a family portrait with his entire family. Hunter says that it is not a secret any more and the fans are smart. Hunter says that everyone knows what is going on. Hunter says that he feels like a part of the family. Almost like he could be his son. Hunter asks Steph ‘what’s up’. Since it is supposed to be a family portrait and it is all about the people you love or loved, Hunter wants to bring out some of those people that Vince has loved. From the current crop of Divas that Vince has loved, Melina comes to the ring. Hunter says that there are a lot. From the past Divas, Sunny. Hornswoggle says hello to Sunny as only he can. The next group is represented by Mae Young. Vince explains to Shane and Stephanie that it was at Moolah’s funeral and he had a lot to drink. His son Shane leaves after that visual. Vince tries to explain to Stephanie and he says that he was thinking of her mom. Hunter says that anyone can do the pretty ones and Hunter says that the list goes on and on. Hunter says that the next ones are weird. Hunter brings out any of the many people who Vince mistook for women. We see Howard Finkel, Knuckleball Schwartz, Bastion Booger, Big Dick Johnson, Pat Patterson, and Gerald Brisco. Stephanie tells her father that he has some serious problems and he has embarrassed the family long enough so it is time that she embarrasses him. Stephanie grabs Hunter and kisses him like a woman would kiss her husband. Hunter tells Stephanie that he will see her at home and then corrects himself and says that her brother is a gnome. Vince says that he hates everyone and tells them to go to hell. Vince leaves the ring and walks to the back.
Hunter apologizes to Hornswoggle and he says that Hornswoggle just wanted a family of his own. Hunter wonders if there is someone who can make it right. If there is someone who can put a smile on their face. We hear the Godfather’s music play and he comes out and Hornswoggle hugs Hunter as the hos come to the ring. Godfather tells Hornswoggle it is time to hop aboard the Ho Train. We go to commercial.
