SATURDAY NIGHT's MAIN EVENT THEME SONG PLAYS AND BRINGS THE SHOW ON THE AIR AS THE CROWD FULL OF SCREAMING FANS IN PROVIDENCE IS PANNED BY THE CAMERA. Jonathan Coachman:"Hello everyone and welcome to Saturday Night's Main Event as the road to Doomsday is getting much shorter"! Bobby Heenan:"Well it's gonna be a big night here and that's why all these humanoids came! I can't even hear myself think"! A MATCHUP PICTURE OF "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN AND NAILS IS PUT UP. Coachman:"A couple of huge main events have been signed tonight fans as the Texas rattlesnake Stone Cold Steve Austin is gonna face Nails of the Hardcore Revolution! A MATCHUP PICTURE OF THE UNDERTAKER AND SHAWN MICHAELS IS PUT ON THE SCREEN. Heenan:"Not only that, but the deadman, The Undertaker is gonna face the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels and I can't wait for that one"! THE HARDY BOYZ' MUSIC HITS AS MATT COMES OUT TO A HUGE POP FROM THE CROWD. Coachman:"One of the most popular superstars in the TWF, Matt Hardy is set for a big one on one match here"! EXTREME JAPAN 2000's THEME HITS AS MASA CHONO COMES OUT TO THE RING. Heenan:"Well this man here doesn't care about popularity, he didn't become a legend in Japan by pleasing the fans"! Coachman:"Major contrast in styles for these two guys but it should make for an interesting match". Matt Hardy vs. Masa Chono This one started out with some high octane offense as Matt sustained a few hard knifedge chops and got back into it with a flying clothesline takedown. He then applied a side headlock but Chono used a brilliant escape and victimized Matt with a back footsweep. Chono locked in a nerve hold to the neck but Matt fought his way back up and hip tossed Chono. After a nice russian leg sweep, Matt went up to the middle turnbuckle and let out a scream as he came off with a legdrop. But Chono rolled out of the way just in time. Chono got up and drilled Matt in the back of the head with a jumping enziguri. Matt was seemingly unconcious as Chono picked him up and dropped him with a backdrop suplex into a bride pin to get the win. Match Time: 2:06 Coachman:"Extreme Japan has just picked up a big win as Chono has defeated Matt Hardy". Heenan:"This Extreme Japan is for real! He just made Matt Hardy look like a complete ham and egger"! BRIEF INTERMISSION WHILE INFO FOR THE AMERICAN RED CROSS AND HOW YOU CAN HELP WITH THE VICTIMS OF THE TRAGEDIES IS SHOWN. "AMERICAN BADASS" BY KID ROCK HITS AS NUKE COMES DOWN THE AISLE. Coachman:"Back to the action fans as this years King of the Ring makes his way down the aisle and Brain, ever since this man won the tournament, he's been a forgotten man on the roster". Heenan:"He's become exactly what he vowed and demaned to TWF officials that he would not. Tonight would be a great time to get back on track". "THE REAL DEAL" DANNY BRYSON's MUSIC HITS. Coachman:"He's gonna face a guy who's trying to make a name for himself here in the TWF and what better way to do that than here"? "The Real Deal" Danny Bryson vs. Nuke Bryson tried a hit and run stratedgy and it worked for about a minute. But Nuke soon caught him in a big bear hug and began to squeeze the life out of him. Nuke held Bryson in the power draining hold until Bryson escaped with an ear clap. But immediately after he escaped, Bryson bounced off the ropes and Nuke dropped him with a humungous boot to the face. Nuke followed that up with the "Atom Bomb" to get the 1....2.....3. Match Time: 1:50 Coachman:"That is a perfect example of what made this man the King of the Ring. If he can get back to that form, he can go far in his career". Heenan:"I actually agree with you Coach! This man is a huge talent who's been a relative underachiever throughout his young career"! PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL.... BACKSTAGE.... Mean Gene Okerlund:"Hey guys, tremendous show so far and I'm standing in the back here with a man I've known for a number of years, Rowdy Roddy Piper. Commissioner, I understand you have an announcement to make". Roddy Piper:"That's right Gene, nothing like my last announcement but it is something that needs to be addressed and it concerns our vacant tag team title situation. Now, there are so many teams in the TWF that deserve a shot at those titles so here's what's gonna happen. This coming Wednesday on PrimeTime, we are gonna have an eight team over the top battle royale. The last two teams in the ring will face each other at Doomsday for the titles". Okerlund:"That's a great idea Piper and one of the reasons you're so popular here in the TWF but can you give us an idea of some of the teams that'll be entered in that battle royale"? Piper:"Actually I'm still narrowing the teams down but you'll all find out on PrimeTime". Okerlund:"There ya have it folks, Saturday Night's Main Event is comin' right back, don't go away". COMMERCIAL.... RETURN FROM BREAK.... VAL VENIS' MUSIC HITS AS HE COMES TO THE RING CARRYING THE TWF TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER. Coachman:"Back on Saturday Night's Main Event as the TWF champion heads to the ring and he's armed with a mic Brain". Heenan:"This is the man who beat Triple H one, two, three! I'm sure he's got a lot to say"! Val Venis:"Ya know, ever since I won this title, for the secod time, you people continue to disrespect me and belittle my accomplishment. Well, I've had just about enough of that crap! Ya see, I am a two time TWF champion, but I still don't get the credit I deserve! So that's why I've asked for this time tonight to lay down a challenge. I figure, the only way to get respect around here is to beat everyone on the TWF roster, as many times as are necessary. So Triple H, listen up. There is a shadow over the win I got on you due to the unwanted interference of your ex father in-law. Well, the fact that you two don't get along is not my problem, yet it has become that way. So Triple H, at Doomsday, I'm putting this belt on the line, just you and me, one on one. So Hunter, accept my challenge and I'll see ya there". Coachman:"Can you believe that? Val Venis has challenged Triple H! The game isn't here yet but I'm sure he'll gladly accept"! Heenan:"That shows what kind of man Val Venis is! A fighting champion"! Coachman:"Well my first question is why is Val so confident now when he literally ran away from Helmsley earlier this week on RAW"? Heenan:"Mind games Coach. It's called psychological warfare". THE HARDCORE REVOLUTION THEME HITS AS ZEROEX COMES DOWN THE AISLE WITH WALLY WILLSON. Coachman:"Speaking of warfare, this faction has essentially started a war inside the TWF and the battle ground will be Doomsday". X-PAC's THEME HITS AND HE COMES DOWN THE AISLE TO A MIXED REACTION. Heenan:"It's gonna go down in less than three weeks. Do you think Wally Willson has a gameplan like Vince McMahon? There's no way he's on the same intelligence level that Vince is". ZeroEx vs. X-Pac This was definitely the match of the night. The fans loved this seesaw battle that saw non-stop, high impact action. ZeroEx's attack of a mixture of kickboxing and smash mouth wrestling overwhelmed X-Pac early. ZeroEx got control after a roundhouse kick followed by a big piledriver. He then stomped away on X-Pac's chest and frequently attacked his lower right leg, trying to disable X-Pac's speed advantage. But X-Pac got back into it when he came off the ropes with a flipping clothesline. X-Pac's quick feet presented several problems to ZeroEx and after blocking a right hook, X-Pac kicked ZeroEx in the stomach and dropped him with the "X-Factor". X-Pac went for the cover and got the 1......2...., but ZeroEx kicked out. X-Pac couldn't believe it and seemed to lose focus as moments later, X-Pac was planted with ZeroEx's spinning powerbomb. But just as referee Tim White was gonna count the 3, X-Pac slipped his foot on the bottom rope. ZeroEx began to argue with White as X-Pac recovered. As ZeroEx turned around, X-Pac threw a spinning heel kick at him but ZeroEx ducked and grabbed X-Pac by the hair and slammed him with a deathdrop ddt. This was enough to get the pin and end a terrific match. Match Time: 11:22 Coachman:"ZeroEx has picked up the victory here in a great match. I'd like to see those two go at it again". Heenan:"ZeroEx has redeemed himself after a loss on RAW and right in front of his boss". SHORT BREAK FROM THE ACTION FOOTAGE IS SHOWN FROM RAW OF AHMED WALKER GOING THROUGH VINCE McMAHON's OFFICE DRAWERS AND THEN TELLING NEMESIS THAT HE HAD SOMETHING HE MAY WANT TO SEE AS WILLIAM REGAL CAME TO THE RING TO SOME SERIOUS BOOS. Heenan:"Finally, finally some class on this show! William Regal is one of the good guys in the TWF"! "BAD BOY 4 LIFE" BY P. DIDDY HITS AND AHMED WALKER COMES OUT TO A GOOD POP. Coachman:"Regal's the biggest butt kisser in the TWF"! Heenan:"Well he's certainly not a thief and Ahmed Walker will pay for snooping through Mr. McMahon's belongings"! Coachman:"What's Vince hiding in his office anyway"? Heenan:"It doesn't matter what he's hiding in there, this man had no right to go in there and he should be disciplined"! William Regal vs. Ahmed Walker Regal put on a slow paced, submission exhibition, taking Walker down immediately and wearing him down with numerous submission holds. But after withstanding Regal's assault, Walker made an inspiring comeback. He hit Walker with 2 consecutive clotheslines and caught Regal with a big powerslam. But when he went for a samoan drop, Regal slipped off his shoulders and gave him a forearm shot to the back. Regal then set Regal on the top rope and brought him off with a double underhook suplex to get the win. Match Time: 8:04 Heenan:"What'd I tell ya? Walker made the mistake of his life messing with the Alliance"! Coachman:"Regal's won the match but look at this, this is uncalled for"! AFTER THE MATCH, REGAL CONTINUED HIS ASSAULT BY LOCKING IN THE "REGAL STRETCH" ON WALKER WHEN NEMESIS CAME DOWN THE AISLE. REGAL MOTIONED FOR NEMESIS TO JOIN HIM BUT NEMESIS CHOKESLAMMED REGAL AND ANGRILY LEFT THE RING. Heenan:"What is he thinking? This man has just thrown away everything"! Coachman:"Something has gotten to Nemesis! He is a very angry individual right now! PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL..... BACKSTAGE.... EDDIE GUERRERO IS SHOWN WALKING BACKSTAGE. Well fans, he returned to the TWF on RAW and when we come back, Eddie Guerrero is gonna address this crowd"! RETURN FROM BREAK..... "LATINO HEAT" HITS AS EDDIE GUERRERO COMES TO THE RING AND FOOTAGE IS SHOWN FROM RAW OF EDDIE GUERRERO RETURNING TO THE TWF AND INTERFERING IN MIKE SMITH's MATCH. Coachman:"Well fans, it's time to get some answers as Eddie Guerrero heads to the ring. Why did he attack Mike Smith on RAW"? Heenan:"I don't think he owes any of these people any answers. Did one of these people write him during his absense for answers"? Eddie Guerrero:"So you people want some answers huh? You all wanna know why I chose to return and attack this punk ass Mike Smith. Well ever since I've been out, I've been watchin' the shows an I've been listening to this vato claim that he is a true Texan and he represents all of Texas for the TWF"! Coachman:"I don't remember him saying that". Guerrero:"But let me tell you something essa, I'm from El Paso and as far as I'm concerned, I represent Texas for the TWF! You've done nothing but disgrace the great state of Texas"! Coachman:"Eddie Guerrero is full of it here! He wasn't even born in Texas"! Heenan:"Would you shut up"! Guerrero:"So I'll tell ya what Mike Smith, you've heard the phrase don't mess with Texas, well you messed with Texas essa, and now you're gonna mess with Eddie Guerrero". HE TOSSES THE MIC DOWN AS THE CROWD RESPONDS WITH BOOS. Coachman:"I don't get it, this is ridiculous"! Heenan:"He disgraced Eddie's homestate! Wouldn't you do the same if someone disgraced Loserland Coach"? Coachman:"In all seriousness Brain, once Mike Smith gets word of these comments, they're not gonna be taken lightly". CHRIS MICHAELS' THEME HITS AS HE COMES TO THE RING. Heenan:"Well Eddie Guerrero will be ready, much like this man is ready for a big match and a chance to prove himself tonight". Coachman:"Chris Michaels will face Bahamut here as Saturday Night's Main Event is turning into an explosive show tonight"! "WHATEVER" BY GODSMACK HITS AS BAHAMUT COMES OUT. Heenan:"This guy is big but Michaels is smarter and tonight will be the night people start to recognize this man's abilities". Coachman:"We've still yet to hear from Triple H and we've been told that he hasn't arrived tonight and still hasn't gotten word of Venis' challenge". Chris Michaels vs. Bahamut Bahamut's size and strenght were too much as Michaels' game plan was quickly thwarted. Michaels used several kicks to the midsection and a russian leg sweep to get the big man off his feet. He then rocked Bahamut with hard right hands until running into a big clothesline. Bahamut used a belly to belly suplex and a big legdrop to get a 2 count but Michaels regained control with a thumb to the eyes. Michaels then went up top and tried to come off with a double axe handle when Bahamut caught him by the throat and slammed him to the mat with a big chokeslam. Bahamut then planted Michaels with the "Crusher" to get the pin. Match Time: 2:24 Heenan:"Ah Chris, how'd that happen"? SHAWN STASIAK THEN CAME TO THE RING AND HE AND BAHAMUT BEGAN TO TRADE BLOWS UNTIL MICHAELS GOT AND WENT FOR A SUPERKICK BUT BAHAMUT MOVED AND HE NAILED STASIAK. BAHAMUT THEN TOOK MICHAELS AND THREW THEM OVER THE TOP ROPE ONE AT A TIME. Coachman:"Bahamut has cleaned house of the Impact Players and which two teams are gonna be left standing at the end of that battle royale on PrimeTime"? AN AD FOR TWF.COM IS SHOWN THE LEVIATHAN's MUSIC HITS AS HE COMES TO THE RING. Heenan:"Here comes a dangerous individual". Coachman:"An individual who along with Drew Blood, helped in attacks on Jordan Rockwell and Tazz on RAW earlier this week". HARDCORE HOLLY's MUSIC HITS AS HE COMES OUT TO A LOUD POP. Heenan:"Why do people cheer for this guy? I don't get these humanoids". Coachman:"Well maybe because he's a hardworking individual who doesn't need any help attacking other superstars". Heenan:"I'd like to see you say that to Leviathan's face". The Leviathan vs. Hardcore Holly This was a slugfest in which Holly really gave it a heck of a shot. After scoring with an awesome dropkick, Holly hit Leviathan with a missile dropkick off the top rope and went for a cover. But at 2 and a half, Leviathan emphatically kicked out. Holly then went for the "Alabama Slam" but Leviathan countered with a backdrop and a huge running powerslam followed by a flying clothesline. After a jumping ddt, Leviathan deposited Holly with a devastating chokeslam to pick up a big statement type win. Match Time: 2:39 BUT AFTER THE MATCH, JORDAN ROCKWELL CAME OUT OF THE AUDIENCE AND BLINDSIDED LEVIATHAN, CLOTHESLINING HIM OVER THE TOP AND TO THE FLOOR. RATHER THAN GOING BACK AFTER ROCKWELL, LEVIATHAN WALKED BACKWARDS UP THE RAMP AND TO THE BACKSTAGE AREA AS ROCKWELL GRABBED A MIC. Jordan Rockwell:"Drew Blood, you wanna play mind games with me? You wanna sacrifice me? Well I ain't gonna play that shit anymore! This is gonna end, one way or another! So Drew, you and me, one on one at Doomsday! I'll be waiting for an answer to my challenge Drew and if you accept, at Doomsday I'm gonna take you out for good"! Heenan:"Is Rockwell crazy"? Coachman:"Not crazy Brain, just very ticked off and hellbent on finishing this issue with Drew Blood and that is a big challenge he just laid down for Doomsday! What will be Drew Blood's response"?! PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL... BACKSTAGE.... NEMESIS IS SITTING IN HIS DRESSING ROOM WHEN VINCE McMAHON SLAMS THE DOOR OPEN. Vince McMahon:"Just what in the hell do you think you're doin'? Don't you dare think of interfering in one of Regal's matches again"! NEMESIS POUNDS A NEARBY LOCKER. Nemesis:"Why didn't you just tell me Vince"? Vince:"Tell you what? I don't know what you mean". Nemesis:"Oh yeah you do. You've known all along. Altering my wife's death certificate to say another name Vince? You didn't think I'd ever find it. (becoming louder) Well listen to me you little bastard. I don't give a crap about you or your Alliance because I quit! And one day Vince, one day I'm gonna make you pay for this". Vince:"I can explain! It's not what it looks like! Please, don't leave, I need you more than ever right now"! NEMESIS GRABS VINCE BY THE THROAT. Nemesis:"You gave me hope Vince McMahon. I believed in you and I believed my wife was alive like you said. But it was all a plot to get me to do your dirty work. You'll pay Vince McMahon and it'll come when you least expect it". NEMESIS LETS GO OF VINCE AND LEAVES HIS DRESSING ROOM AS VINCE IS SHOWN WITH A TERRIFIED LOOK ON HIS FACE AND SNME GOES TO COMMERCIAL. COMMERCIAL..... RETURN FROM BREAK CHRISTIAN's NEW THEME HITS AS HE AND FAITH HEAD TO THE RING. Coachman:"We're back here on Saturday Night's Main Event and what a crazy situation we just saw before the commercial break Brain. Nemesis has left the Alliance and it's clear to me that what Ahmed Walker took from Vince's office his wife's altered death certificate. Where would Vince get his hands on something like that"? Heenan:"And why would Walker be messing around in his office? Did he know it was there too"? EDGE's NEW THEME BY ROB ZOMBIE HITS AS HE AND CAMMIE COPELAND HEAD TO THE RING. Coachman:"It's clear that all Vince was doing is using Nemesis as his pawn and Ahmed Walker made him realize that. But in any event, we've got mixed gender action here as Edge can't wait to get his hands on Christian". Heenan:"I think Christian wants Edge just as bad Coach, as do these ladies". Mixed Gender tag Christian and Faith vs. Edge and Cammie Copeland This was a fast paced, hectic match in which Edge and Cammie controlled. Cammie started things off by beating Faith from one side of the ring to the other. Cammie used a hip toss and a perfect dropkick followed by a flying body tackle off the top rope which drew a 2 count. But as she bounced off the ropes, Christian pulled her down by her hair, allowing Faith to make the tag. Christian stomped on Cammie repeatedly and but her down with a reverse ddt which she surprisingly kicked out of after 2. But Christian whipped her into the ropes and she came off with a flying hair drag. Cammie then crawled over and tagged in her brother Edge who came in and did a number on Christian. Edge hit him with a spear and a nice dropkick. Edge then went for the "Buzzkill" but Christian lifted him up and tossed him out of the ring. Christian then went for a suicide dive but Edge moved out of the way. He and Christian began trading blows as Faith and Christian went at it inside the ring. With referee Chad Patton occupied with the women, Scorpion came down the aisle with a baseball bat and nailed Edge in the back of the head. Christian then slid in the ring as Patton administered a 10 count and Edge couldn't get back in. Match Time: 10:56 Coachman:"That was that Scorpion guy again! What is going on between he and Christian"? Heenan:"Probably nothing. He probably just hates Edge like everybody else who knows him"! Coachman:"Well the bargain basement victory as J.R. would say, goes to Christian and Faith but this one is far from being over folks. FOOTAGE OF THE KANE-ALBERT #1 CONTENDER FOR THE IC TITLE MATCH IS SHOWN FROM RAW IN WHICH RHYNO AND CHRIS BENOIT GOT INVOLVED IN AS ALBERT's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES DOWN THE AISLE. Well folks, after what happened last week on RAW, Commissioner has signed the following match for Doomsday. A MATCHUP PICTURE WITH DOOMSDAY's LOGO IS SHOWN ON THE SCREEN. That's right, it's gonna be a fatal four way elimination match between Rhyno, Albert, Chris Benoit and Kane"! CHRIS BENOIT's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GREAT POP. Heenan:"There's a long history between those four men in one form or another but my money is on Rhyno. The Gore will take any of those guys out". Coachman:"Well two components of that match are gonna go at it here and think of the momentum one of these guys can garner going into that big match at Doomsday". Albert vs. Chris Benoit Albert's power had Benoit reeling early as he punished the Crippler from the opening bell. Albert got 3 near falls and then dropped Benoit with his awesome scissor kick but Benoit still got a shoulder up at the last second. Behind the crowd, Benoit made a ferocious comeback. After a nice go behind, Benoit pounded Albert in his massive back with hard forearms. Minutes later, he amazed the crowd with 3 consecutive german suplexes. Benoit was really feeling the effects of the match but he made his way up to the top rope where he launched himself off and drilled Albert with his diving headbutt. Benoit hurt himself a little with the move but he rolled over and covered Albert to get the 1.....2.....3. Match Time: 7:32 Coachman:"What a huge win for Benoit! He's gotta be considered a strong candidate to come out on top at Doomsday if he performs like that"! Heenan:"I thought for sure Albert had him but I gotta give Benoit credit because that was a hard fought victory"! THE HARDCORE REVOLUTION THEME HITS AS NAILS COMES OUT WITH WALLY WILLSON TO A LOUD SERIES OF BOOS. Coachman:"Right back to the action fans as Nails and Wally Willson make their way to the ring for a huge match, maybe the biggest of Nails' career". "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO THE LOUDEST BOOS ALL NIGHT. Heenan:"Yeah, there's no titles on the line but what a career booster it would be for Nails to beat this man"! Coachman:"We've seen several different sides of the rattlesnake in recent weeks but he's still tough as nails, no pun intended". Nails vs. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin This was an all out street fight. Both men took their best shots at each other as the action was back and forth, trading right hands and hard shots. Nails began to get the better of Austin when he slipped out of the ring and tripped Austin up. He then pulled him to the corner and rammed his knee against the steel post 3 times. Austin seemed to be in excruciating pain and was hobbled all match. Nails continued the beating until he tried to bounce off the ropes and catch Austin with a ddt but Austin caught him and slammed him with a spinebuster. Austin frequently gave finger gestures to the crowd and referee Mike Chioda and after a russian leg sweep, Austin was waiting like a predator to hit the Stunner. But as Nails got back to his feet, the Bringers of Death ran down the aisle and Wally Willson jumped up on the apron, drawing Chioda's attention as Tex Watson and Mike Stalker slammed Austin with a double chokeslam. They then set him on the top turnbuckle where Nails brought him down with an unbelievable powerbomb which was enough to score the upset. Coachman:"Nails has beaten Austin with the help of some of his buddies! This is a major upset"! Heenan:"Well Austin cost the Bringers of Death a match a couple weeks ago and what better way to get some revenge then what they just did. Just wait till Vince sees that his number one guy has been defeated like this". Coachman:"I'm sure he's watching this right now"! AUSTIN WAS IN THE RING FURIOUS AS NAILS AND THE BRINGERS OF DEATH WALKED BACKSTAGE. PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL..... BACKSTAGE..... Mean Gene:"Can you believe that fans? The war between the Alliance and Revolution is becoming out of control but another couple of guys who were out of control, Drew Blood and The Leviathan attacked you on RAW Tazz". Tazz:"You're right Gene, they did. They beat me like a dog and they did a lot of damage. But I'm from Red Hook Gene, I've gone through beatings like that my whole life. So Leviathan, you wanna fight, you can have one at Doomsday and hell, I'll even put the European title on the line. They may call you the Demon of the Deep, but I'm thug life born and thug life bread and at Doomsday, you'll find out exactly what that lifestyle means"! COMMERCIAL..... RETURN FROM BREAK... CARNEY COMES OUT TO THE HARDY BOYZ' THEME AS THE FANS GIVE HIM A GOOD CHEER. Coachman:"Fans before we get to the next match, we can now confirm that Drew Blood has accepted Jordan Rockwell's challenge and that ante has been upped a bit, it's now been made a Last Man Standing match"! Heenan:"Not only that, but The Leviathan has accepted the challenge of Tazz and they will go at it for the European title at Doomsday"! TAJIRI's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GOOD REACTION. Coachman:"Back to the action here and we've got two of the most popular lightheavyweights in the TWF in a big match here". Carney vs. Tajiri These 2 treated the fans to an exciting. back and forth match. Carney hit all his high risk moves including a variation of Poetry in Motion and a senton bomb off the top rope. But he couldn't beat Tajiri and after whipping him into the ropes, Tajiri ducked a clothesline and nailed Carney in the mouth with a stiff savot kick. Tajiri then whipped Carney into the corner and locked in the Tarantula when Extreme Japan 2000 made their way down the aisle. They distracted Tajiri long enough for Carney to put him away with an electric chair drop. After the match, Extreme Japan came in to pick up the pieces as they began a 4 on 1 assault on Tajiri. But Carney spun Yuji Matasamo around and socked him as The Hardy Boyz and the Holly cousins came to the ring and cleaned house. The crowd cheered as the 5 men stood tall in the ring with Extreme Japan in retreat. Match Time: 2:39 Coachman:"Carney picks up the win but it looks like this is a united front". Heenan:"These guys are gonna regret this. Extreme Japan is a group of skilled technicians. Just wait till they get their hands on these five guys". THE HARDCORE REVOLUTION THEME HITS AS HELLS ANGEL COMES DOWN THE AISLE WITH WALLY WILLSON. Coachman:"The Hardcore title is about to be put on the line as this guy will face arguably the greatest Hardcore champion in TWF history". Heenan:"It's been a good night for the Revolution up to this point and this would be a fitting way to end the night for them here". "FALLING AWAY FROM ME" BY KORN HITS AS STRIFE COMES DOWN THE AISLE WITH THE HARDCORE TITLE IN HIS RIGHT HAND. Coachman:"One of the top young stars in this business is Strife and he looks determined to win this one". TWF Hardcore Title Match Challenger... Hells Angel vs. Strife This one was hard hitting and was mostly fought outside the ring. Strife took it to Hells Angel early, ramming him into the steel ring steps before clotheslining him over the barracade and into the crowd. But during the match, The Bringers of Death were shown on the TWF tron pulling a forklift in front of Bahamut's dressing room door. Neither man saw this as they continued to brawl. Strife threw Hells Angel back over the barrier and nailed him with a trash can lid. But Hells Angel lowblowed Strife and used a piledriver on the floor. He then removed the protective padding and went for another piledriver but Strife countered with a backdrop. With Strife in firm control, the entire Hardcore Revolution came running out. Lord Apocalypse took Strife out with a clothesline and ZeroEx caught him with a roundhouse kick. The Bringers of Death then used their double chokeslam right through the announce table as Heenan and Coachman scrambled out of the way. The final blow was dealt by Nails as he smashed Strife in the head with a fire poker. It was academic from there as Hells Angel used the "Easy Rider" on the floor and got the 1.....2.....3. Match Time: 5:41 Heenan:"He did it! We've got a new Hardcore champion"! Coachman:"It took six guys to do it though Brain and since when are you a fan of these guys"? Heenan:"I'm just callin' it like I see it Coach". Coachman:"Well it was obviously a well planned attack by the Revolution and they have ended Strife's reign as Hardcore champion". Heenan:"Here's what I've wanted to see. J.R.'s interview with The Rock and Travis Wakeman". Coachman:"Earlier today fans, Jim Ross sat down with both The Rock and Travis Wakeman. Let's take a look at what they had to say". PRE-RECORDED Jim Ross:"I'm glad you two guys have taken the time out of your busy schedules to answer a few questions for me that I'm sure the TWF fans want to hear. Now we all know that you two guys love this business, Rock, you were born into it and Travis, you've come a long way in the last two years. You two are easily two of the most popular superstars in the TWF but I'm gonna start by asking this to you Rock. What does it mean to you to be so well liked by these fans as you call yourself the People's Champ"? Rock:"Well J.R., it truly means a lot to The Rock to be at the top, the pinnacle of this business and frankly, the people declared The Rock the Peoples Champ". J.R.:"Ok Rock, so my next question would be this, why would you put that all at risk to go after another one of the more well liked superstars backstage"? Travis Wakeman:"I think I can answer that one J.R.. It's not doubt that The Rock's a funny guy, but I think he's afraid of competition. He doesn't want his spot as People's champ being taken". Rock:"The Rock will always be the People's champion and that's regardless of anything anyone ever says or does, including you". J.R:"Ok guys we don't want this to get heated but Rock, why did you make the disparaging comments to Trish Stratus on RAW, someone who we all know means the world to Mr. Wakeman". Rock:"Well J.R., The Rock likes to have fun above all else. I believe The Rock's asked you a time or two if you like pie". J.R.:"Yes Rock, you have". Rock:"And that's all The Rock was doing that night until she took it to heart and began to act like a roody poo about it". Wakeman:"Hey man, watch it. She did nothing to you to deserve that. Besides, you don't need to ask her ridiculous questions like that". Rock:"Please jabroni, The Rock will do what he wants when he wants as long as he's in the TWF. If you ever stopped to think for one second, you'd realize that you've had several problems throughout your career and almost all of them have been because of her". J.R.:"Well guys, here's my most important question. With this war going on in the TWF between the Alliance and the Revolution, it's left the fans without much hope for the future. Would you guys ever consider putting your differences aside for the TWF and more importantly for the fans of both of you? THE ROCK AND WAKEMAN JUST STARE A HOLE THROUGH EACH OTHER. J.R.:(Pauses)"Thank you for your time gentlemen". Coachman:"As you can see fans J.R. got a few answers out of both men but it was clear that there is some animosity between them as well". A BELL TOLLS AS THE UNDERTAKER's THEME SONG HITS AND THE LIGHTS GO OUT. Heenan:"This man's entrance still gives me the chills. I was there the first time The Undertaker ever competed and it hasn't changed to this day". "SEXY BOY" HITS AS SHAWN MICHAELS COMES OUT AND THE FANS GO WILD. Coachman:"Speaking of entrances, listen to the ovation for the Heartbreak Kid"! Heenan:"He can come out and dance all he wants but the game is gonna be over when he gets into the ring". Coachman:"Should be a great match between two of the best ever"! The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels Michaels went right at The Undertaker, coming at him with a series of right hands. But Undertaker's right hands knocked Michaels off his feet. Undertaker then caught him with a flying clothesline and a big boot to the face. He went for the cover but Michaels kicked out at 2. Undertaker then walked along the top rope and went for his flying club to the back but Michaels reversed his grip and whipped Undertaker off the ropes. After hammering Undertaker with a stiff jab, Michaels came off the ropes with a flying forearm but Undertaker sat right up. Michaels then hit Undertaker with a well placed dropkick but it didn't even knock him down. Michaels then bounced off the ropes but walked right into another boot. Undertaker then signaled for the end and planted HBK with the "Last Ride" but the resilient Michaels had enough left to intelligently roll out of the ring. Michaels then came back in and ducked a clothesline and drilled Undertaker with the "Sweet Chin Music" but Undertaker sat up again. Michaels then caught Undertaker with the superkick as he got up but Michaels could only get a 2 count as Undertaker powered out of the cover. But Michaels went to the corner and loaded his boot as Undertaker came to his feet and HBK drilled him with a 3rd "Sweet Chin Music" blast and Undertaker went down hard. Michaels covered him and hooked the leg as referee Earl Hebner counted the 1.....2.....3. Coachman:"Michaels has gotten the win over The Undertaker and that is a huge one"! Heenan:"It took three superkicks! That's amazing! Most men can't withstand one"! But as HBK was having his hand raised by Hebner, Undertaker came from behind and attacked Michaels. He then wrapped his hand around Michaels' throat and went for the chokeslam when the crowd erupted as Triple H appeared and entered the ring. Helmsley hit The Undertaker in the back and he and Michaels used a double clothesline to knock The Undertaker out of the ring. Undertaker landed on his feet but slowly backed away as the crowd went nuts. Heenan:"What the heck is goin' on?! Why is Helmsley out here"?! Coachman:"Triple H has come to the aid of Shawn Michaels but did he hear the challenge from Val Venis"?
