SIDENOTE: A fan jumped the rails and looked to be headed toward Linda. HHH tackled him right before the camera cut and locked on Linda. JR and Lawler got quiet. A few moments later HHH was back in position beside Steph and Linda continued with her announcement.

The Game starts talking about the need for a new era and Shane makes his way to ringside.
