The roar of the Memphis crowd was deafening, a thunderous wave of sound that filled the arena and echoed off the walls of the FedExForum. The WWE Tag Team Championship belts gleamed under the bright lights, held high by the victorious duo standing center stage. Zlatan Ibrahimović and Kurt Angle, the newly crowned champions, basked in the glory of their hard-fought victory. But beneath the surface of their celebration lay a simmering tension that was palpable to anyone who watched closely.
Zlatan, with his trademark smirk, looked across at his partner. "Well, Kurt," he began, his voice dripping with self-satisfaction, "it seems like we finally did it. We're the champs. But remember, I'm the main star here, and you're just here to support me."
Kurt Angle, ever the seasoned competitor, rolled his eyes. "Oh, come on, Zlatan. We're a team, but let's not kid ourselves. If it weren't for me, Rey Mysterio would've made you break that hold on Edge at No Mercy."
Zlatan chuckled, his eyes narrowing as he taunted his partner. "Ah, Kurt, always with the bald head and the mid-life crisis. You're jealous because you can't pull off an accent like mine."
Kurt's response was a good-natured chuckle. "Jealous? Please. I've accomplished more in this business than you can imagine."
Zlatan's smirk widened as he leaned closer. "Oh, yeah? Let's talk about accomplishments. Remember when I made Stone Cold tap out at the King of the Ring? Something you couldn't do."
Kurt's face tightened as he fired back, "That was a fluke, Mr. Ibra. One lucky night doesn't define a career. I made Stone Cold tap out for the WWE Championship. I did it long before you even came to WWE. Where were you? Wrestling in some backyard inbreds in Europe?"
Zlatan remained unfazed, his smirk never faltering. "Well, speaking of tapping out, you and I have some unfinished business, Kurt. Last time we fought, I made you tap out at Unforgiven."
Kurt's grin returned, a glint of challenge in his eyes. "That was then, Zlatan. This is now. And hey, I've got a submission match against Ric Flair in Stockholm at Rebellion. I'll show you how it's done."
As the two continued their verbal sparring, the crowd's chant of "Spoon" began to swell, a reminder of their bitter rivalry. The chant was a playful nod to their previous confrontations and the infamous no physicality rule set by Stephanie McMahon, who was now growing visibly annoyed.
Stephanie McMahon, her expression a mix of frustration and authority, stepped into the ring, effectively placing herself between the two champions. "Alright, enough of this banter, you two," she declared, her voice cutting through the noise. "Remember, Rebellion is just around the corner in Sweden. Zlatan, you'll face Chris Jericho, and Kurt, it's you against Ric Flair. And don't forget, no physicality until then or you'll be stripped of your titles and suspended for eight months. Understood?"
Both Zlatan and Kurt begrudgingly nodded, though their eyes continued to shoot daggers at each other. The mutual animosity was evident, and while the crowd cheered for the spectacle, it was clear that the celebration had done little to mend their fractured relationship.
Michael Cole and Tazz, stationed ringside, provided commentary that underscored the tension.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Michael Cole began, his voice tinged with excitement, "it's clear that Zlatan and Kurt Angle might be tag team champions, but they're still bitter rivals at heart."
Tazz added with a grin, "You said it, Cole. The no physicality rule is hanging over their heads, but I wouldn't be surprised if these two can't keep their hands off each other."
As the champions continued to exchange glares and words, the WWE Universe buzzed with anticipation. The celebration of their victory was overshadowed by the looming shadow of their individual battles and the tension that promised to explode when they finally met in the ring. The road to Rebellion in Stockholm was shaping up to be anything but smooth, and the WWE faithful eagerly awaited the next chapter in this unfolding drama.

The atmosphere in the FedExForum was electric as the newly crowned WWE Tag Team Champions, Kurt Angle and Zlatan Ibrahimović, continued their post-match celebration. The crowd was still buzzing from the high-octane action of the night, but the real show was unfolding in the ring as the two champions engaged in a heated exchange.
Kurt Angle, standing tall with his championship belt draped over his shoulder, faced Zlatan with a mix of pride and annoyance. "Look, Zlatan," he started, his voice brimming with confidence, "I've won the King of the Ring, the Intercontinental Title, the European Title, and the WWE Title. I'm a bona fide superstar."
Zlatan's lips curled into a sly grin. He dropped to his hands and knees, mimicking an exaggerated royal bow. "Oh, Kurt," he said with a playful tone, "King of the Ring? You mean the tournament you won? All hail King Kurt!"
The crowd erupted in laughter, their amusement echoing through the arena. Zlatan's playful jab at Kurt's King of the Ring credentials struck a chord, and the response from the WWE Universe was unmistakable.
From ringside, Stephanie McMahon watched with a mixture of amusement and concern. She couldn't help but wonder how her father, Vince McMahon, had managed to keep the egos of WWE superstars in check for all these years. The rivalry between Kurt and Zlatan was clearly more than just a friendly feud.
Zlatan, not missing a beat, continued his taunt. "But let's talk about my accomplishments, Kurt. I've beaten Booker T and Stone Cold Steve Austin. I've stood toe-to-toe with the NWO. And let's not forget, Stone Cold tapped out to me at King of the Ring. Can you claim that, Kurt?"
Kurt Angle's expression hardened. "Well, I've beaten Booker T for the WCW Title and Stone Cold for the WWE Title last year in my hometown of Pittsburgh. That's something you can't say."
Zlatan raised his hand, his smirk widening. "Booker T, huh? Well, Kurt, I've got the WWE Tag Team Titles with you now. We're the champs. And you know what, Kurt?" Zlatan's tone turned more provocative. "I think the crowd wants to remind you of something."
The crowd responded immediately, chanting "Spoon," a playful nod to their ongoing rivalry and Zlatan's earlier jabs. Stephanie McMahon shook her head, bemused by the ongoing antics and the lack of control she had over the situation.
As Zlatan and Kurt Angle continued their verbal sparring, the countdown to Rebellion was on. With only three days remaining before their respective matches in Stockholm, Sweden, the anticipation was palpable. The WWE Universe eagerly awaited the upcoming showdowns, knowing that the tension between the champions would only add to the spectacle.
Backstage, the banter between Zlatan and Kurt Angle didn't miss a beat. The corridor was filled with the sounds of their continued exchanges, much to the amusement of the superstars who had gathered to watch.
Zlatan, still reveling in his recent victory and playful jabs, turned to Kurt with a smirk. "Hey, Kurt, just a reminder—I'm the first-ever Swedish champion!"
Kurt Angle rolled his eyes, clearly unimpressed. "Yeah, yeah, we've heard that a million times. I'm an Olympic gold medalist, you know?"
Zlatan's teasing grin widened. "Oh, Olympic gold medalist? You mean crybaby gold medalist, right?"
Kurt's face reddened with indignation. "Crybaby? I won an Olympic gold medal with a broken freakin' neck!"
Zlatan, sensing an opportunity for more fun, prompted the crowd. "Hey, guys, you wanna have some fun? Let's get a 'What' chant going!"
The crowd responded with gusto, their chants of "What" growing louder and more insistent. Kurt Angle, visibly flustered, tried in vain to silence them, his attempts only fueling the chant further. Zlatan, meanwhile, reveled in the moment, laughing and basking in the crowd's reaction.
"See, Kurt," Zlatan said between laughs, "it's fun to hear the 'What' chant!"
Nearby, superstars like Edge, Rey Mysterio, John Cena, and Chuck Palumbo watched the exchange with a mix of amusement and caution. While they were entertained by the spectacle, they were also wary of getting involved in the escalating rivalry.
The backstage area buzzed with energy as Zlatan and Kurt continued their playful yet pointed banter, setting the stage for what promised to be an explosive series of matches at Rebellion. With tensions running high and the WWE Universe on edge, the road to Stockholm was bound to be anything but smooth.

The excitement in the FedExForum was palpable as the WWE Universe buzzed from the aftermath of the earlier confrontations. The energy in the arena was electric, with fans still riding high from the ongoing drama between Kurt Angle and Zlatan Ibrahimović. However, the scene was about to shift dramatically as Vince McMahon made his entrance to address the crowd.
The arena lights dimmed, and Vince McMahon's iconic theme music hit, signaling the arrival of the Chairman of WWE. As McMahon stepped into the ring, he was greeted with a mixed reaction from the crowd—a mixture of cheers and boos. With a determined stride, he took center stage, clutching a microphone.
"Ladies and gentlemen," McMahon began, his voice booming through the arena, "I have an important announcement regarding the upcoming Survivor Series at Madison Square Garden this November—"
Before he could elaborate further, he was interrupted by a chorus of "What" chants from the crowd. The chants were a direct result of Zlatan's earlier antics, and they were deafening.
"What? What? What?" the crowd chanted in unison.
McMahon's frustration was evident as he attempted to continue his promo. "Dammit, I—"
But the crowd was relentless. "What? What? What?"
The Chairman's irritation grew as he struggled to be heard over the uproar. Just as it seemed like McMahon might regain control, the arena's lights shifted, and Zlatan Ibrahimović's music blasted through the speakers. The crowd erupted into a massive pop, eagerly embracing Zlatan's entrance.
Zlatan stepped onto the stage with his trademark calm demeanor and a mischievous grin. He sauntered down the ramp, joining in with the crowd's chant. "What? What? What?" Zlatan repeated, his tone dripping with casual amusement.
McMahon's face turned a deeper shade of red as he glared at Zlatan, visibly seething. He demanded respect, his voice rising with authority. "Do you know who I am? I'm your boss, and I won't tolerate these fanatics giving me that 'What' chant because I hate that word! I'm Vincent Kennedy McMahon, damnit!"
Zlatan looked at McMahon with an air of detached amusement, his grin widening. Then, with a sudden burst of energy, Zlatan executed his signature maneuver—the Lion's Roar. The superkick landed flush, sending McMahon crashing to the mat with a resounding thud. The crowd exploded in cheers, thoroughly enjoying the unexpected turn of events.
Zlatan, now standing over the fallen McMahon, picked up the microphone and confidently declared, "I'm Zlatan."
The shockwave of Zlatan's action rippled through the arena. Michael Cole and Tazz, providing ringside commentary, were caught off-guard by the dramatic turn of events.
Michael Cole's voice was filled with astonishment. "The Lion's Roar flooring Vince McMahon! I can't believe what we've just seen!"
Tazz's excitement was palpable as he shouted, "Shades of Shawn Michaels super kicking Mr. McMahon when The Boss fired HBK as the WWE Commissioner! Ibrahimović just dropped, he just dropped Mr. McMahon with one shot!"
As the crowd's cheers continued to echo, Zlatan took a moment to savor his handiwork. He looked around the arena, basking in the reaction of the WWE Universe, before turning his attention back to the fallen McMahon. With a smirk, Zlatan left the ring, leaving the Chairman sprawled on the mat in stunned silence.
The unexpected clash between Zlatan and Vince McMahon had set the stage for a new chapter in WWE's ongoing drama. The ramifications of Zlatan's bold move would undoubtedly reverberate through the upcoming Survivor Series and beyond. As the night wore on, the WWE Universe buzzed with speculation about what this shocking turn of events meant for the future of the company and its leadership.

The backstage area of the FedExForum buzzed with activity as wrestlers and crew members went about their business. Amidst the hustle and bustle, Rey Mysterio and Edge found themselves in front of a backstage monitor, their eyes glued to the unfolding drama.
On the screen, Vince McMahon lay sprawled on the mat, recovering from Zlatan Ibrahimović's devastating "Lion's Roar" superkick. Zlatan stood over him, microphone in hand, delivering his signature declaration. The entire segment had unfolded in a dramatic whirlwind, and the two superstars couldn't help but react.
Rey Mysterio, his mask slightly askew from his excited movements, turned to Edge with a broad grin. "Did you see that, Edge? Zlatan's got some serious guts!"
Edge chuckled heartily, nodding in agreement. "He sure does, Rey. Vince didn't know what hit him."
The laughter between the two was genuine, their amusement evident as they continued to watch the aftermath of Zlatan's bold move. The reaction from the crowd, the shock on McMahon's face, and Zlatan's confident stance had made for quite a spectacle.
Rey shook his head, still grinning. "I never thought I'd see the day Zlatan would pull something like that. The guy's got guts, no doubt."
Edge, leaning back slightly, added with a smirk, "Yeah, and it's always entertaining when someone shakes things up like that. McMahon's probably fuming backstage right now."
The two continued to watch as Zlatan exited the ring, leaving behind a chaotic scene. The commentators were still buzzing about the incident, and the atmosphere in the arena was charged with excitement and speculation.
Rey Mysterio turned back to Edge, his expression thoughtful. "You think this'll have any impact on Survivor Series? Zlatan and McMahon don't exactly seem to be on the best terms now."
Edge nodded, his smile fading into a more contemplative look. "Definitely. Zlatan's made a bold statement, and it's going to stir the pot for sure. Whatever happens next, you can bet it'll be a big talking point heading into Survivor Series."
The two friends shared a final laugh before turning their attention to other matters. The backstage area continued to buzz with chatter about Zlatan's unexpected move, and the ripple effects of his actions were already starting to make waves.
As they walked away from the monitor, Rey Mysterio and Edge couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement for the upcoming events. With tensions running high and the WWE Universe abuzz, the road to Survivor Series was shaping up to be more unpredictable than ever.
The bright lights of the arena shone down on Kurt Angle as he stood in the center of the ring, clutching a microphone with a determined grip. His Olympic gold medal glittered under the spotlights, a stark contrast to the mood in the arena. The crowd was in full chant mode, their voices a cacophony of "What" and "Spoon," a lingering echo from Zlatan Ibrahimović's earlier antics.

Kurt Angle, visibly annoyed, raised the microphone to his mouth. "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know what's gotten into this crowd tonight!" he began, his voice carrying a mix of frustration and exasperation. "I'm here to talk about my submission match against Ric Flair at Rebellion in Stockholm, but all I hear is 'What' and 'Spoon' chants!"
Despite Kurt's efforts to regain control, the crowd responded with even louder chants, their enthusiasm undeterred. The noise was almost overwhelming, a testament to the WWE Universe's penchant for creating chaos.
Kurt's patience was wearing thin, but he pressed on. "Enough of that! Now, Ric Flair, you may be one of the greatest of all time, but I am an Olympic gold medalist! I don't care how many 'What' chants you throw my way; I am going to make you tap out, Ric!"
The chants persisted, with the crowd's energy showing no signs of waning. Kurt Angle's frustration grew, his face reddening with anger and determination.
"You think this is funny, huh?" Kurt continued, his voice rising. "Well, let me tell you something, Stockholm, and the entire WWE fans watching around the world, I am not here to be a joke! I am here to be the best, and I will prove it by making Ric Flair submit in the middle of that ring!"
As Kurt Angle's words echoed through the arena, the crowd remained unfazed, their chants of "What" and "Spoon" creating a backdrop of sound that seemed almost deafening. Kurt's resolve was clear, but the lack of support was palpable.
Kurt took a deep breath, his jaw set with determination. "So, Ric, bring your best, bring your Figure-Four Leglock, bring your legendary status, because none of that is going to save you from the pain and humiliation of tapping out to the Ankle Lock!"
With that final declaration, Kurt Angle dropped the microphone and exited the ring, his frustration evident in his brisk stride. The crowd continued their chants, seemingly impervious to Kurt's anger.
Michael Cole and Tazz, ringside commentators, picked up on the scene with their characteristic enthusiasm.
Michael Cole spoke into the camera, "Well, Kurt Angle may not be thrilled with the crowd's response tonight, but he's laser-focused on his submission match against Ric Flair at Rebellion!"
Tazz, always the one to add a bit of color to the commentary, chimed in with excitement. "You said it, Cole. Angle is determined to prove he's the best, and he's got a legendary opponent in Ric Flair. This match is going to be something special!"
As the commentary team wrapped up their segment, the atmosphere in the arena remained charged. The crowd's chants continued to reverberate through the venue, a testament to the unpredictable nature of WWE's fanbase. Meanwhile, Kurt Angle's exit only added to the growing anticipation for the showdown at Rebellion.

Once inside, Zlatan grabbed a microphone, his eyes sweeping over the enthusiastic WWE Universe. He was about to address the crowd ahead of his upcoming match at the Rebellion pay-per-view in Stockholm, Sweden.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Zlatan began, his voice commanding attention despite the ambient noise of the crowd, "in just a few days, at Rebellion PPV in Stockholm, Sweden, I'm going to face—"
As Zlatan spoke, the crowd erupted into their familiar chant. "What? What? What?" Their enthusiasm was relentless, creating a backdrop of playful chaos that seemed to amuse Zlatan.
Zlatan embraced the crowd's interruptions with a charismatic grin. "—face Chris Jericho! And you know what? I'm going to show him why I'm the—"
The crowd continued their chant, the "What" echoing through the arena, creating a rhythmic interruption.
"WHAT? WHAT? WHAT?" the crowd chanted in unison.
Zlatan paused, letting the crowd enjoy their moment before continuing. "—the main star of this industry! Jericho, you call yourself the 'King of the World,' but I'm going to prove that I'm the—"
Again, the crowd's chants cut through, louder and more persistent.
"WHAT? WHAT? WHAT?"
Zlatan's smirk widened, his confidence unshaken by the crowd's antics. "—the real king when I beat you in my homeland, Stockholm, Sweden! So, Jericho, you can keep pretending to be an A-hole—"
As if on cue, the crowd picked up the chant, focusing their attention on Chris Jericho.
"Asshole! AssHole! Asshole!" the crowd chanted, their voices rising in unison.
Zlatan looked on with a satisfied grin, clearly enjoying the interaction. "—because at Rebellion, I'm going to enjoy every moment of teaching Y2Joke a lesson!"
The arena erupted in cheers, the crowd feeding off Zlatan's energy. Zlatan soaked in the atmosphere, his presence commanding respect and excitement from the WWE Universe.

"Well, it seems like Zlatan is having a blast with the 'What' chants, Tazz," Michael Cole remarked, his voice filled with amusement.
Tazz responded with enthusiasm. "You're right, Cole. He's not letting it bother him one bit. Zlatan's looking forward to his match with Jericho at Rebellion, and it's going to be explosive!"
As Zlatan stood in the ring, basking in the crowd's adulation, it was clear that his charisma and resilience had turned what could have been a frustrating interruption into a memorable segment. With Rebellion just around the corner, Zlatan's showdown with Chris Jericho was shaping up to be one of the most anticipated matches, fueled by the intense energy of the WWE Universe and Zlatan's own larger-than-life persona.

Zlatan: (In Swedish) Motivation, Patrick, comes from within. It's about always striving to be the best, to prove yourself day in and day out. In football, I achieved a lot, and now in WWE, I'm on a new journey. Every match, every challenge, it keeps that fire burning.
