Let's go back to 1999. It's The Rock vs Mankind for the World Championship. DX, Chyna, Ken Shamrock & The Corporation, and the bossman himself, Vince McMahon, are there too. Everything's on the line.

Steve's doing the behind-the-scenes play-by-play on all the action - the bumps, the blind feeds, the rule manipulations, the finishes, and that illustrious "pop" heard 'round the world.
