No Way Out 2000 - The Results

Before the next match, Kurt Angle says that once he defeats Chris Jericho and becomes the "Eurocontinental Champion," like the ex-Hartford Whalers, he too will be leaving Connecticut. Unlike the Whalers, he will return one day and give the people of Hartford, Connecticut the hero their town deserves. When Jericho shows up, Jericho welcomes everyone to "Hartford Is Jericho," then tells "Kirk Angel" that he is a jackass, and says he an idiot, an imbecile and an ignorance. He then adds an "I" of his own in the Intercontinental Championship, and says it will stay around his waist. Jericho then declares himself the only real celebrated bad mamma-jamma in World Wrestling Federation History.
