Interview:
Montel Vontavious Porter interview

("Thug Mansion" by Tupac played as Montel Vontavious Porter and his agent
Theodore Long came to the ring to boos from the crowd.)

Theodore Long: Let me fell all of you for a minute. MVP wants to know how
everybody is feeling tonight.

(The fans booed MVP and Long.)

Theodore Long: Looks like we've got our answer and I suspect that reaction is
based on the fact that MVP has rid ECW of one of its heroes; that being Sabu.
That's no big surprise, I mean, Sabu was a member of ECW for longer than I can
even recall, but Sabu was never the franchise player that MVP is. Not to
mention, Sabu's choice of a tag team partner leaves a lot to be desired, playa.
Rob Van Dam is the worst you can get when we're discussing franchise players.
RVD and his little kicks and flips, don't impress MVP and they never have. RVD
isn't Mr. Primetime. RVD isn't the Franchise Player and RVD isn't the Ballin'
Superstar; Montel Vontavious Porter is.

(MVP mocked a homerun swing and stood staring into the sky, tracking the flight
of his swing.)

Theodore Long: I know you all feel me and I know you all feel the MVP, because
MVP is the real fucking show, not some fake, honky like Rob Van Dam.

(MVP and Long left the ring to boos from the crowd.)
