Back up top, McMahon makes a call up north. And Kyle Mathison of Hoyt Lakes, MN manages to win $175,000. After that announcement, Jericho is making his way to the ring.

Jericho goes on to point the finger at all the fans for his actions last week. He goes so far as to call out Shawn Michaels. But the surprises keep on coming, as the Nature Boy makes a surprise appearance on RAW. As the show returns, Nature Boy comes out and challenges Jericho to a fight...in the parking lot.

Jericho and Flair head towards the parking lot, but as Jericho opens the exit door, he comes face to face with the WWE Champion, who makes it clear that he wants Jericho tonight. Vince McMahon pops up and makes the match official.

Fourth Bout: Holly & Rhodes defeat Cryme Tyme

This match was quick, as Ted DiBiase came out to distract the duo from Brooklyn. As Shad was aimed towards DiBiase, Hardcore Holly rolls up JTG for the quick win. The tag champs' opponent at Night of Champions is now making it clear that no one is safe from his quest for gold.

In other news, Becky Carmon of Advance, NC wins a whopping $16! Guess Cryme Tyme wasn't the only ones that got the shaft tonight.

Fifth Bout: Paul Burchill & Katie Lea defeat Mickie James & Kennedy

Kennedy gets clocked by Burchill to start the bout, but it doesn't take long before the Green Bay Loudmouth gets control. Burchill gets the advantage with an armbar, but Kennedy starts fighting back with a trifecta of boots.

Katie Lea tags herself in and Mickie wastes no time with a few clothesline and a sleeperslam followed by a dropping dropkick. As Burchill tries to interfere, he gets speared in half by Kennedy. Unfortunately, Lea drops Mickie with a modified backbreaker for the upset win.

Meanwhile, Mr. McMahon gives Alana Ayres of Westmont, IL something to smile about: $174,984!

The show returns with McMahon giving Peter Mauer of Bloomville, NY $75,000!

Before the main event, Vince gives Frank Turbeville of Haddon Township, NJ $300,000 in honor of next week's draft and decides that he will do another Million Dollar Mania Drawing next week during the draft.

Main Event: Triple H defeats Chris Jericho due to outside interference

Triple H gains the early advantage, but Jericho uses a cheap shot to take brief control. The Game regains control, and sends Jericho outside via the steel posts as RAW takes its final break.

Back on RAW, Jericho is on the offensive, and the Game is trying to get back in the ring. In the squared circle, Jericho continues the assault, but Triple H counters with a clothesline. The champions exchange rights until The WWE Champion nails the Harley Race High Knee, and Double A Spinebuster.

Jericho counters the Pedigree, misses the Lionsault, but counters the Pedigree once again. Both men fight on the outside until Lance Cade comes out of nowhere and attacks The Game. The two men set an ambush, bum-rushing him until John Cena comes out to rescue Triple H.

Cena takes both men out of the ring, but gets jumped by Triple H. As the two men slug it out, Jericho and Cade return to the ring and drop both men. They talk some trash and raise their arms in "victory," proving that there is little honor amongst thieves as RAW goes off the air.

Don't forget that next week, the WWE Draft will be live on RAW! Tune in as the Superstars of RAW, SmackDown! and ECW congregate to find out who is staying and who is going. RAW will go live one hour earlier at 8/7 Central on USA.
