America West Arena
Phoenix, AZ
PS--Crowd was majorly hot, just like for RAW the
night before. See what happens when you don't
give us real wrestling for 18-months!
DARK MATCHES
Horseshoe vs. Stoop Angel (couldn't hear exact
name)
Horseshoe wins after a DDT.
Gangrel & Just Joe vs. The Dupps
An alright, if not sloppy tag team match. Gangrel
and Just Joe win after Gangrel pinned one of the
Dupps with an implant DDT.
Joey Abs vs. Dane Gerous (I think)
Pretty good match for an new wrestler. Dane
Gerous hit a couple of high spots (huricanrana,
plancha) and pinned Abs after a leg drop from the
top rope.
Kevin Kelly and Michael Cole come to ringside and
we're ready for...
SUNDAY NIGHT HeAT MATCHES
Dean "Double-Ho 7" Malenko vs. Crash [WWF
Light-Heavyweight Title Match]
The two shake hands and we have lots of reversals
and restholds to start. Crowd chants "ELROY."
MAlenko tries spinning toe hold a few times.
Corner reversal leads to a sunset flip which gets
2. Crash backslides for 2. Malenko reverses
huricanrana into a powerbomb and locks in the
Texas Cloverleaf. Crash taps out and the two
shake hands.
Camera crew gets crowd shots.
Low Down vs. Kai en tai
Kai en tai double teams to start and does a
slapfest on Chaz. Chaz and D'Lo then double team
for a while. Funaki gets hot tag and cleans
house, but Chaz gets him into a superplex and
D'Lo hits the Low Down for the pin.
Crew sets up Heat Pyro and gets more crowd
shots.
Tazz vs. The Brooklyn Brawler -- Strap Match
Tazz comes out with the leather strap. Kick and
punch fest. Brawler whips Tazz with the strap and
crothes him with it as well. Tazz reverses the
situation and hits the Tazzmission and the
Brawler taps out. Afterwards, Tazz grabs the mike
and goes on about leadin a thug life and how
he'll beat down Jerry Lawler at Unforgiven.
Chyna comes out to a huge pop to cut a promo
about her relationship with Eddie Guerrero and
the Playboy shoot. She says she loved Eddie, but
she is her own woman with her own opinions and
she is proud of the Playboy pictorial that will
appear on newsstands Sept. 25. While she was
talking, Mideon streaked into the ring, grabbed
the mike and uttered some gibberish and then took
off. Chyna got the mike back and said, "Well, you
probably won't see that in Playboy."
Lita vs. Ivory vs. Jacquline [WWF Women's Title
Match]
Match starts with Ivory and Jacquline putting the
beat down on Lita. She counters with a double
clothesline and hits a spinning huricanrana on
Ivory. Lita is thrown out of the ring but comes
back to stop a pin attempt by Jacquline, then
hits the Twist of Fate followed by a moonsault
for the pin.
The ring crew then changes the rope for....
SMACKDOWN MATCHES
Jerry "The King" Lawler comes down to a nice
pop.
Lillian Garcia sings the national anthem.
Opening Pyro
Commisioner Mick Foley comes to the ring for
the opening interview. He says that even though
he made some great matchups for Unforgiven,
including the Fatal Fourwau and Triple-H vs. Kurt
Angle, he's afraid that all of the participants
will kill each other before then so he has a
plan. Before he can explain, The Rock comes to
the ring and states he is not afraid of any kind
of a Fatal Fourway match, be it four ho's or four
monkeys. Foley showed a clip of Rock and The
Undertaker making nice on Raw. The Undertaker
then comes out to a enormous pop and says just
becuase he's friends with the Rock, that doesn't
mean he won't take him out. Benoit then comes out
and claims to be the number one contender since
he pinned The Undertaker on RAW. Then, Kane comes
out and claims to be a freak and a monster (or
something). Foley tries to get order again, only
to be interrupted by the entrance of Kurt Angle,
who says the only real issue is the abuse of
Stephanie by Triple-H on Monday. This brings out
Triple-H. Foley finally restores order by saying
that if all of them are teamed up tonight in tag
matches, then they won't kill each other. He sets
up:
Angle/Triple H vs. T and A
Kane/Benoit vs. The Acolytes - Acolytes Rules
Match (no rules)
The Undertaker/The Rock vs. The Dudley Boys - Table Match
Angles says he wants Foley to pass a rule stating
Triple-H can't touch him during the match and
then leaves, followed by Triple-H. Kane and
Benoit then jump Rock and The Undertaker stars to
go back up the ramp but coms back to fend off
Benoit. Kane then chokeslams The Rock and we cut
to commercial
After the break, Foley comes out to state that
if any of the feuding partners in the matches
he's made for tonight refuse to help each other,
he'll take away their matches at Unforgiven.
Chris Benoit & Kane vs. The Acolytes
KAne doesn't shoe for a minute or two and
Benoit is double-teamed. Back anf forth between
the teams until Bradshaw hits a powerbomb on
Benoit who then walks out on Kane. The Acolytes
then pin Kane after their double-team finishing
move.
Backstage, Triple-H whines to Foley about not
being able to take out Kurt Angle. He asked why
he can't and Foley snaps, telling him that he's
the commisioner, he doesn't care and if Triple-H
doesn't do it, he'll take away his match at
Unforgiven. Cut to commercial.
Back from commercial, a recap of the current
Eddie/Chyna situation is shown, followed by
another video where Eddie goes to the Playboy
mansion to stop Hugh Heffner from running the
pictures of Chyna. He doesn't even make it past
the security guards at the door and is tossed of
the property. We cut to Chyna who leaving her
dressing room in a huff. Kevin Kelly tries to
interview her, but she is too upset. Commercial
Back in the Arena, RTC comes out with Val Venis
as it's new member. Steven Richards says that
while they think Stone Cold Steve Austin is the
epitome of what they're trying to get rid off in
the WWF (drinking, flipping the bird) they had
nothing to do with him getting run over. Val
Venis then takes the mike and says he wasn't
brainwashed by Steven and the RTC, but instead,
Steven showed him that he had a need in his life.
His new mission in the WWF is to help those who
he turned his back on - the youth of America --
and rid the WWF of scantily-clad women. He calls
out Rikishi & Too Cool, which gives us...
Rikishi & Too Cool vs. Val Venis, The Goodfather
& Bull Buchanan
Back and forth to start. Rikish and Grand Master
Sexay both beat down Venis in the corner, which
sets up Scotty's Worm. Stinkface on Venis, but
Eddie Guerrero runs in and sprays Rikishi in the
face with something, causing Scotty to be
distracted and allowing Val to hit him with a
German suplex and a Michinoku driver for the pin.
Backstage, Trish Stratus pumps up T&A and we see
Kurt Angle coming to the ring. Commercial
T&A vs. Angle/Triple-H
Angle starts and gets waylaid by Albert. Tags in
HHH, who cleans house and forces Angle to come
back in. Stephanie comes down to ringside and
interferes by grabbing Test's ankle. Trish
clobbers her, which brings Angle over for the
save. Triple-H gets pissed by this and also gets
distracted, allowing Test to plant him and get
the pin.
Backstage, Tazz finds Foley in the woodshop (?)
and asks for a release. Foley jokes around with
him and Tazz gets upset, claiming that no one
takes him seriously. Foley says that he's the
only one who likes him in the WWF, so he sets up
a match between Tazz and Lawler for Unforgiven
and even adds on a stipulation that Lawler can't
touch him until the PPV. Backstage, T&A celebrate
with champagne and give Trish a wet T-shirt.
Christian & Edge come out to cut a promo about
Austin and the Hardyz. They say that if they had
a time machine, they would not only save Stone
Cold, but would go to the future to meet the
Hardy Boyz. But wait, they do have a time machine
and they bring out the Hardyz & Lita from 2050. A
couple of old men dressed like the Hardy Boyz and
a old woman dressed like Lita come out. Too
funny! Edge tries to spear them, but Mick Foley
comes out to declare that the Tag Title match at
Unforgiven will be in a cage! The real Hardyz and
Lita come out to clear the ring. Commercial
We see a video of Saturn and Terri eating at
WWFNY when a fan tries to get an autograph from
Tori and is beat down by Saturn. Back in the ring
we get...
Saturn (w/Terri) vs. Steve Blackman [WWF Hardcore
Title Match]
Before the match, Tazz comes out in street
clothes and sits in the seat behind Lawler and
taunts him throughout the match...he even has his
own sign ("TAZZ"). Saturn and Blackman have a
garbage match that goes into the crowd, while
Tazz pelts Lawler with popcorn and tags him with
his sign. Terri gets taken out when Saturn tries
a body block from the ring apron and Blackman
gets the pinfall after a hitting Saturn with a
trashcan.
Undertaker is interviewed backstage by Kevin
Kelly. He spits out some chaw and tells her that
he'll help the Rock out tonight but will go after
him full bore come Unforgiven. Commercial
Edge, Christian & X-PAC vs. The Hardy Boyz &
Jerhico (w/Lita)
The Hardyz & Y2J sneak up on their opponents
during the ring intros. Back and forth until the
Hardyz & Jerhico triple-team Christian, hitting
the Twist of Fate and the Swanton Bomb. X-PAC
sneaks in and nails Jeff Hardy with the X-Factor
for the pin.
Promo for Smackdown the Vote.
We go to commercial and some crew members set up
a dining table on the stage for Steven Regal, who
comes out and proceeds to teach the WWF fans some
table manners, which he says they're sorely
lacking. Big heat from the crowd for that.
Rock is interviewed by Lillian Garcia. Basically
he says that he can't trust anyone, not even the
Undertaker.
The Dudley Boyz vs. The Rock & The Undertaker -
Table Match
Rock and The Undertaker have control for a while,
then the Dudleyz take over and D-Von hits the
WAZZUP! Crotchbutt from the top rope and out come
the tables. The Undertaker and The Rock tease the
chokeslam and Rock Bottom through the tables, but
the Dudleyz finally hit the 3-D on The Undertaker
to get the win. Afterwards, Undertaker chokeslams
the Rock through the other table.
