Okay, overall the show didn't really do much for me, but there were two moments when I was glad I'd tuned in:
Jericho's estimation of Triple H's new name: "Triple H must stand for, ha ha, Hunter, ha ha, Hearst, ha ha ha Hilarious!"
And, even better:
RVD and the Big Show: "Why don't I get the title shot at SummerSlam?" RVD - "I don't know... because you're a tool?" Show - "Blah blah blah I'm a giant blah blah blah." RVD - "Okay, so you're a GIANT tool..."
I don't really care for HHH or his (overly)long promos, but I thought his "you've got no idea" line (I think that's how he phrased it) in response to the crowd chanting a##hole was perfect. Then he went back to being boring.

When Flair started smashing Fozzy's equipment, I knew Lawler was gonna mention The Who.
After lots of thinking I finally came to a theory: Any non-wrestler who gets attacked by the Island Boyz will immediately recieve praise from the Wienerville community. There's no other way to explain it.

i thought the rock's hhh impressions were GOLD. i was DYING, DYING I SAY for him to call hhh "the baby game". i would have instantly become a rock fan for life.
"MY DIAPER IS THAT DAMN WET!" "i cannot tell a lie - you are a monkey's anus!" "fire! good! club turned sideways up your candy ass BETTER!"
i do think that rock calling hhh "benedict helmsley" was really good, though. and this coming from a guy who can't stand the rock. this is also a rock off-night? he should have them more often.
All lines mentioned here were funny, but one I really liked was RVD " can't be stiff for SummerSlam - well, not too stiff" Which I thought was a bit joke about Van Damme's being a stiff worker.
And Am I the only one that doesn't believe for a second that Lawler actually listens to any of the CDs that the WWE tends to plug? I mean he sounds like someone's father trying to pretend he's cool and with it by dropping some names. "Oh M & M, yeah I love his work and those D13 guys, and Dr. Drew..."

I'm still getting over the fact that J.R. has a Fozzy CD in his truck!

It depends. If what they meant to transcribe was, 'Goo-googa-joob,' it's a reference to The Beatles' "I Am the Walrus," off Magical Mystery Tour. If they really mean, 'koo koo ka choo,' I can't help ya.
