A half hour before Lita & Trish came on the show Howard was interviewing a movie critic. The critic said that The Rock will be the next big action hero & will be done with wrestling by May.
Howard promotes that Lita & Trish are up next, he asks producer Gary if they are pretty or look like Chyna, Gary says pretty but Lita is a little built.
Howard reads a live commercial for InVasion, he lists some matches. Robin says Howard has no idea how big the PPV is. Howard says she's wrong & explains the angle. He doesn't even care & just wants to watch the Bra & Panties Match.
Howard introduces the ladies, they will be playing the Gossip Game with Enquirer Mike Walker. Howard says the women are pretty & not all muscular & they have womenly voices. Howard explains the match, Trish chimes in & says she & Lita used to feud but for this PPV they will be a tag team.
Lita & Trish don't mind that the males get paid more, they take harder bumps & work more often. They will be wearing their normal gear when they wrestle Sunday. Trish is single, Howard asks if they are into girls. They are not. Howard asks if they were good in sports, Trish was varsity field hockey.
Sometimes at autograph sessions & sometimes women want "hugs" (they want more than a hug). Lita says she has a on-screen boyfriend (Matt Hardy). Lita says most of the WWF men prefer groupies than women wrestlers. Trish talks about being pre-med (foot doctor), her teacher went on strike & she later turned into a model. Trish talks about making it to the WWF, internet sites reported she signed before she was even interested.
Lita talks about wrestling in Mexico, Howard & Robin make fun, saying in Mexico you get paid with food (poor country). Howard asks if boobs will pop out Sunday, Trish tapes her's in. One time Lita's fell out when she didn't have time to tape them down.
Howard introduces Mike Walker (on the phone). Mike talks about Chyna not being in the WWF, Mike says Chyna lost Triple H to Stephanie in real life! Chyna left the WWF soon after they started dating. Howard says wrestling is a cruel world. Mike plugs Chyna's new site (BodyByJoanie.com).
Howard says Vince McMahon doesn't take any crap. Jessica Hahn calls in & they start talking about Chandra Levy (missing intern). Howard says Jessica should be in the Bra & Panties Match. Trish & Lita never had sex with Vince. Robin thinks it's odd when WWF women do Playboy (Sable, Chyna) they leave the WWF soon after. Now they talk about the Robert Blake (Baretta) case. Howard thinks Chandra killed Blake's wife & is now in hiding (LOL).
Time for the Gossip Game. Story #1 is about Julia Roberts/Ben Bratt, #2 Drew Barrymore wedding, #3 Ray Ramano golf story, #4 Frank & Kathie Lee Gifford fighting. They have to pick the fake story. Trish goes with Drew, Lita picks the Ray story & Robin agrees, Howard goes with Trish, Arti Lang (guest host) says the Gifford story is fake, Fred says Julia/Ben. Robin & Lita are correct! That end the game, Mike's gone.
Howard wants a preview of the Bra & Panties match. Howard thanks them for being on the show & promotes InVasion & says he might watch. Trish likes Howard's Sean/John clothes (P. Diddy's up next). End of interview.

I have Time Warner Digital Cable, and sometimes we get the Raw preview before anybody else.
Hour 1: Who prevailed at Invasion? Hour 2: Stone Cold madness.
The overnight Smackown rating came in at a 4.9. The final number will be available later today.
The Rock is expected to make his return to the WWF at the July 30th Raw in Philadelphia.
WWF has told it's contracted wrestlers that are not currently working to accept as many indy dates as possible to avoid ring rust. They would need to make sure they are not booked for Mondays and Tuesdays in the event they are needed for Raw and Smackdown.
