Talk about it here.

Last few minutes. Weird seeing Rock and HHH on the same side, but it wouldn't last long. They are working over Show when Austin makes the save to a ridiculous pop and both guys go all out bumping for him. Show ends up making a comeback with a chokeslam on HHH shortly after. Rock still has Austin's smoking skull belt in his possession. Shane points to the Titantron where there's a picture of the Smoking Skull belt and Shane orders producers to keep the picture on the Titantron for the rest of the night. So Austin asks Show to bring the entire Titantron down and Show manages to singlehandedly pull the Titantron down. Then Austin starts ripping it up from behind and cutting through it. Cool moment, the type we don't really see anymore. They should do angles out of their admittedly minor set re-designs when they do them.

Cool angle although the possible financial implications are hilariously oversold on commentary. It's just cheap projection screen!

I loved the piped in sound effects when Show brings down the titantron.

This has done a better job at making Show look like a monster than anything else so far. The build out of Mania seems to be rematch as Rock vs. Austin is still going on. However, it seems like Shane is now the boss after Austin with Vince preoccupied with this Taker thing.

Yeah, *this* had some piping-in. I'll never complain about wrestling stuff being destroyed when it's being replaced anyway (even though I sort of did for last week's Nitro).
