They win the match but X-Pac still takes the 3D through the tables.

WWF HARDCORE TITLE MATCH:

Rhyno (c) Vs. Raven

Raven's got some nice love from the crowd and out comes the weaponry. Heyman's an expert on these ECW guys. Rhyno charges in right into a droptoe hold. Very early cover that was. Raven runs in with a trashcan and Rhyno goes in with a shoulder block.

Kane and Undertaker are arguing, of course all conversations are useless since Triple H can see it all on TV.

Well here's the next step in the Vince against Shane saga, the package features a lot of Vince talking and Show has wrecked Shane. Test got murdered by Big Show.


LAST MAN STANDING MATCH:

Big Show Vs. Shane McMahon

New theme today for Shane, all about money. Shane messes up picking a chair up. He just went under the ring and he attacks Big show from behind with a kendo stick. That book is being used as a weapon. Shane jumps and gets caught. Escapes with the stick and he attacks some more until Show knocks him out. Show is moving around slowly and Shane's just whacking him with a chair.

Takes about six of them for Show to go down. Shane's using something while he's got Show in a sleeper hold. Shane's even got a mask on and the mysterious substance is keeping Show down. The referee has started to count.

--
Dr voltchball - best in the world.

Vince runs in and hits Shane with the chair a couple of times. Big Show's back up and Shane's down. Show picks up Shane and gives him the sidewalk slam. Shane gets thrown around and Heyman's calling this a public beating. Everytime Shane gets up Show ust drives him to the canvas.

Show: "Kneel before me"

Again Show picks up Shane and uses the backbreaker. Test runs in to give Show a big boot and Show's back up. Out goes Test over the top. Test and Show brawl down the ramp and Test is using a keep off sign, show drives Test's back into the steel structure. Clubbing blows and Shane's got another sign and he uses it on Show's back. Big show takes one hell of a pipe and he's been missing Shane.

Shane's climbing up and Show's following him. I think Shane's got a boner for these kinds of high jumps. Test meanwhile catches Show and they keep brawling. Low blow and a right hand, Shane says his prayers and drops a legdrop from all the way up.

Test is keeping Shane up using his power! Shane wins via legdrop of doom.


Vince ain't happy and he's got only one son and his name's Triple H. Steve Blackman's in new york with Grandmaster, does this count for a PPV Paycheck? Sexay wants blackman to give him sum luv.


WWF EUROPEAN TITLE MATCH:

Matt Hardy (c) Vs. Christian Vs. Eddie Guerrero

Brainbuster and another one, cover and a kickout by Matt Hardy. Girls are screaming their faces off and so do a couple of guys in the third row. Attempted hurricanrana fails. Christian goes in and he fails and Matt's playing the two against each other.

Slam and up top he goes and there's the legdrop and Eddie kicks out. Christian trades rights, Matt's head bounces off the apron and Edge runs in with a spear, what the hell is he wearing. Eddie is pushed out of the ring and Eddie covers matt and there's a kickout. Jeff runs in to fight against Edge.

Unprettier by Christian, Swanton from Jeff knocks him out and Matt goes for the cover. From this match I can ony conclude that Perry Saturn is a very bad friend.


There's an ad for WWF New York. Video package showing the day Austin turned evil

Austin is not just evil, but he's allied with Triple H and The Rock stood no chance against that. They've got all the belts and they like using chairs. Undertaker and Kane are the badasses we're all going to be supporting tonight.

All the titles will be up for grabs. Undertaker only sees dead men walking and they've really got to change their music for video packages.

WWF vs. WC- oh wait.

WWF vs. EC- wait a minute.

On a different note, here's a small list of wrestling video games I've played from best to worst...

WWF No Mercy - Still the king after all these years
Fire Pro Wrestling Returns - Probably the most in-depth wrestling game you'll ever play, despite how simple it looks
SmackDown: Here Comes the Pain - Easily the best in the SD series by a landslide
WWF WrestleMania 2000 - Helped pave the way for No Mercy with cage matches, a solid career mode, and the ability to create belts, ppvs, and wrestlers
WCW vs. nWo: Revenge - Nothing greater than a 40-man battle royal to get the gears moving
SmackDown: Shut Your Mouth - Definitely has one of the best career modes I've played
SD vs. Raw 2006 - Much improved from the original, the only frustrating mode is basically GM/Franchise
WWF Attitude - Much improved from Warzone, but that isn't saying much
WCW vs. nWo: World Tour - Didn't have all the bells and whistles that future games had, but it got the job done back in 1997
SmackDown vs. Raw (2005) - Good create-a-wrestler mode, but that's about it
WWF SmackDown - Slightly overrated, imo
WWF Warzone - Cage matches and JR's commentary were the only things I enjoyed about this game
WCW Mayhem - Decent effort by EA, but there's so much better out there
WWF SmackDown 2 - Sequels are supposed to be better THQ -_-
SmackDown: Just Bring It - Good potential ruined by massive memory card requirements, mediocre career mode, and awful commentary
WWF Royal Rumble (Dreamcast) - Best Royal Rumble mode period, but way too easy to win any match
WCW Thunder - Think WCW Nitro, only with more characters
WCW Backstage Assault - It's only fitting that this is the final WCW video game ever
WCW Nitro - Sucked on N64, sucked on PC, and sucked on PS1. Worst wrestling game I've ever played.

My only regret is not having faith in Phoenix Wright. Hats off to SuperNiceDog

Oh no, what will we do if Raven leaves us.

Hmmm, TNA's still a while away and I don't even know if you watch it or not.

Wooo, Ruthless Aggression era.

Pfff, Benoit's going to be bringing Toothless Aggression to the table.

Dr voltchball - best in the world.

Nah, I don't watch TNA. I can give my two cents on a few shows, of course.

Raven's stars of 2001 ppvs (posted so far)
Royal Rumble: Kane
No Way Out: Steve Austin
WrestleMania X-Seven: (tie) Steve Austin and Edge/Christian
Backlash: Chris Benoit

I have my set list of ppv stars for the rest of the year (minus the UK ppvs, never watched em), so we'll see where everyone stands when it's all said and done. Also, enjoy Survivor Series 2001; I watched that one LIVE :D

My scythe is close to where my heart used to be - Manuel Calavera

Hmm, you know had Jeff not botched the ladder run I think that kind of spot woulda put the Hardyz above E&C for X-7. Bionic Redneck still comes out on top, but that TLC match really helped things out. Though jakyl just had to break my heart by pointing out how irrelevant the Radicalz are going to be in a short moment thanks to injuries, bad gimmicks and retirements.

Don't forget drug addiction!

Slammy Award winning, at the very least

Davey Richards once he retires from wrestling can go into acting and play the role of Benoit. Chavo can play his uncle.

Dr voltchball - best in the world.

Oh crap, since I never read past the PPVs I had watched, I missed all of voltch's posts and everyone else's comments from Rumble through Backlash. Dammit.

Royal Rumble 2001

Dudleys are recovering from concussions and here to compete. That kind of thing would not fly today!

Dudley Boyz vs. Edge & Christian

The champs don't even want to stick around and defend, they're leaving. They don't get far and fans want TABLES already.

Bubba's selling this concussion but he's still taking on Christian. D-Von in to give Edge a powerslam and Christian interferes. D-Von's getting dropped to the mat a lot, suplex, side russian leg sweep, neckbreaker.

"WE WANT TABLES!" D-Von counters a piledriver and hits Edge and Christian into each other. Ref misses the hot tag. Edge and Christian have chairs, D-Von ducks them, now Bubba is in.

Christian goes way up in a backdrop, Edge goes way up for a hotshot. Edge slammed, wassup, D-Von with the headbutt and he's not feeling concussed after that. GET THE TABLES!

Edge tries to run in with the belt, Bubba a rollup but a two count. 3D interrupted with a spear and Bubba kicks out! Bubba with a rollup, Edge inadvertantly saved by Christian, here's a 3D and the Dudleys are champs!

HHH is worried about Trish being at ringside screwing up his title shot. Oh, here's Drew Carey. He remembers Kamala, what a wrestler he was. Stephanie wants to set him up with Trish.

Crash runs in to threaten APA, what a promo.

Two former WCW stars are now in a WWF rivalry. Should be good.

Ladder match: Chris Jericho vs. Chris Benoit

I guess Jericho's arm is hurt and this may be a focus by Benoit. There's some chops early on and lots of WOOOOs. Jericho into the post then a shoulder breaker. Jericho goes for a springboard dropkick, but it was setup by Benoit, he dodges.

Benoit's got the ladder outside now. Jericho tries a baseball slide but Benoit moves aside again. He's already climbing but Jericho pulls him off.

Jericho gets some offense as he runs the ladder into Benoit. "Y2J" chants from the crowd. But he gets run into the ladder know and he went hard into it. Benoit dives out and Jericho nails him with a chair! He wants ride the ladder onto Benoit but Benoit moves again.

"That chair is like the contact in the XFL!"

Both guys take turns running the other into the ladder. Benoit gets put through the ladder then falls down with it.

Lawler attributes the creation of a ladder match to Shawn Michaels, pretty sure he's wrong.

Benoit's taking some creative shots to the head from the ladder. Seesaw over the rope, now Jericho dropkicks the ladder. He tries going up but Benoit suplexes him right over the top rope.

Up goes Benoit, Jericho grabs him on top and he's got him in a stretcher over the top of the ladder! Benoit falls off, but he kicks the ladder down.

Crippler crossface! Jericho is tapping out all day. Benoit gets greedy and goes for a DDT but gets pushed into the ladder. The ladder goes to the corner, both guys are on it. Jericho wants a suplex but he's pushed off. OH god no, Benoit goes up, headbutt from up there! Jericho moves and Benoit smacks the ground.

Benoit gets trapped under the ladder, Jericho is climbing! Benoit lifts the ladder from his back and Jericho is out of the ring. Jericho gets a chair and a couple shots, Benoit is out of the ring now. Jericho's up, he's got the belt!

Y2J! Y2J!

Sushi, kamikaze, fujiyama, nippon-ichi...

Drew Carey is hitting on Trish, but she's seeing someone. Hype up Drew's show. Vince has the most ridiculous idea ever.

Billy Gunn something who cares oh but Chyna is gonna fight Ivory.

Chyna got her neck broken from a suplex from Ivory, okay sure. She's recovering awfully fast. She's also finally gonna wrestle some other ladies.

Ivory vs. Chyna

Chyna throws Ivory around by the hair a few times. She's also not good at disguising her ring talk.

Ivory tries running into the crowd, is this a squash match? Press slam.

Steven Richards tries running in, Chyna takes on both at once. Handspring elbow and Chyna hurts her neck doing it. Ivory covers and pins.

lol what was this. They're trying to sell this like Austin's injury or worse.

Holy eye shadow Trish think you got enough on

Drew Carey calls Kane goofy, what a duo.

What is this, D-Lo and Chaz are with Tiger Ali Singh and all dressed in Indian clothing. They've been replaced by Carey, man, these guys are so low-midcard now. Poor D-Lo.

Trish is Angle's business advisor and she's involved with Vince. Oh no catfights sure to come with Stephanie and Trish. Oh yeah and I guess the WWF title might be on the line in this match.

HHH vs. Kurt Angle

Crowd's letting Angle know he sucks. Lots of locking up, Angle working that arm hold.

Angle's working those suplexes, what a talented wrestler. JR reveals HHH was his wrestler of the year in 2000.

HHH is working on Angle's leg. But a whip to the corner sends HHH out of the ring where he takes a few shots.

Stephanie's got the ref distracted and HHH hits Angle's leg with a chair. Now more attacks to the leg. He must be setting Angle up for the sharpshooter or figure four.

Facebuster and a cover, Angle kicks out. HHH is slowing the pace of this way down.

Oh hey, here's the figure four! HHH is grabbing the ropes for leverage and Trish tries to get the ref to stop this. What a dirty heel she is! Stephanie runs out to beat up Trish. Vince comes out to break it up. He finally carries off Trish.

Remember that match in the ring? Me neither. Finally Vince goes backstage with the girls, oh, HHH was distracted by all this. Angle tries an inside cradle! Two count.

Angle finally fighting back, DDT. Inverted atmoic drop and german suplex. Side russian leg sweep and he's going to the corner, HHH gets up for shot to the groin.

HHH trying the pedigree, but Angle breaks out and both guys are down. Angle climbs up, he hits a moonsault! Two count.

Elbow drop from HHH, Angle moves and Hebner is down. HHH up to the top, Angle jumps for an armdrag. No cover because the ref is down though.

Angle's trying to talk to the ref, HHH pushes Angle into the stairs and Hebner is out again, ha.

HHH tries to use the belt as a weapon, but Angle hits a suplex. HHH with a pedigree! No ref to count!

Stone Cold runs out here! He's beating up HHH! He hits HHH with the belt! He's bleeding and Austin pushes the ref back in the ring. Stunner on HHH and he leaves. Angle crawls over for the win.

Rikishi's gonna be number 30 in the Rumble, nothing scarier than a big guy late.

Rock wonders if Kane and Undertaker are working together. Do they share sandwiches and tickle each other? Rock has to worry about Bull Buchanan, Perry Saturn, and... Austin.

ONLY FIVE CAN LADDER.
Sushi, kamikaze, fujiyama, nippon-ichi...

Rules for this year is 2 minutes between entrance, and thrown with both feet on floor. Are self-eliminations valid?

Royal Rumble

1 is Jeff Hardy, and 2 is Bull Buchanan. Jeff with a couple close calls as he tries moves in the corner, but of course he stays in for now.

Hey, number 3 in is Matt Hardy. Some double teaming and Bull is number 1 gone. Now the Hardys are going against each other.

Number 4 in is Faarooq, he knocks down both Hardys. Whoops Jeff botches a leap. Almost a dominator on Matt but Jeff saves him. Twist of fate and a swanton bomb. Faarooq is number 2 out. Shirts come off.

Number 5 in is Drew Carey. He slowly gets in the ring while both Hardys are fighting on the apron. They both eliminate each other as Matt is 3rd out and Jeff is 4th.

Number 6 out is Kane, this surely was not 2 minutes. Drew wants to give Kane money. Chokeslam coming, Raven saves Drew as Raven is 7th in. And Drew Carey eliminates himself to be 5th out.

Al Snow runs out to fight Raven, he's not in the Rumble yet! Raven's got a bunch of foreign objects in the ring to fight Kane. And here's the next person, oh, it's Al Snow and now he's the 8th person in.

Bowling ball rolled between Raven's legs, there is garbage all over the ring thanks to Raven and Snow. Kane gets hit with a garbage can 6 times, then drop toe hold onto another.

Number 28 in is Billy Gunn. He's trying to fight the brothers too. Refs finally pull HHH off Austin. Rock wants a rock bottom, Undertaker DDTs him. Billy's already exhausted in the corner.

Kane's back in to push Austin and Rock, Rock is 28th gone. Austin hangs on, then he runs into a chokeslam. Austin gets up for a low blow, both are down.

Kane rolls out to get a chair. Austin fights off the chair, stunner on Kane. Kane's up, chair to Kane's face! Two more chairs, Austin eliminates Kane and wins the rumble!

Good undercard, good rumble, good PPV. Not many botches to choose from this time, which is good.

Kane did eliminate about 40 people that rumble, but Austin was wearing Kane's mask at the end! I don't know why I didn't say Kane as star, I wrapped it up quick after watching and forgot Austin spent half his time laying in the aisle.

While I have a little time here tonight, since 2000 was the most recent year voltch and Nee completed, let's look back on what Wrestlecrap inducted into their Hall of Fame from that year!

The photograph reflects, every streetlight a reminder; nightswimming deserves a quiet night

WWF Betrayal was not a bad game actually as long as you tried not to associate it with wrestling whatsoever. It was a decent beat em up.

--
No problem!
This is a cute and pop genocide of love!

Some more inductions from 2000 that I missed...

- Mancow's match at WCW Mayhem
- Booker T vs. Jeff Jarrett in the one-time only San Francisco 49er Match for the WCW World title
- The live action version of The Grinch (Wrestlecrap's 2000 induction for a Christmas film)
- The Wedding Gown match between Stacy Keibler and Daffney
- Harvey Whippleman winning the Women's title
- Vince Russo's "shoot" promo at Bash at the Beach

And 1999's inductions! (not doing anything before 99). 1999 was the last year to not have a ****er of the Year award, but it did have...
- The Rock vs. Mankind on Halftime Heat
- Arli$$'s one-time only appearance in WCW, promoting Dennis Rodman of all people
- Jeff Jarrett vs. Chyna in a Good Housekeeping Match at No Mercy
- The Maestro, a symphony-composer gimmick that never got over in WCW
- Dennis Rodman raping Gorgeous George
- The Iron Circle match between Ken Shamrock and Steve Blackman
- The feud between Will Sasso and Bret Hart, which was on both Mad TV AND WCW Nitro
- Alex Wright, both his dancing and his Berlyn gimmicks
- Mosh's failed gimmicks, first Beaver Cleavage, and then being Chaz, an accused woman-beater
- Big Show's dad's funeral
- The Blonde ***** Project: A failed parody made by Stevie Richards and The Blue Meanie
- Meat, one of Shawn Stasiak's many failed gimmicks
- Mark Henry falls in love with Sammy, who winds up being a dude all along
- The Fingerpoke of Doom
- The Junkyard Invitational match @ Bash at the Beach
- Oklahoma, WCW's answer to Jim Ross
- Se7en, a gimmick that Dustin Rhodes immediately gave up on during the character's debut
- The Artist Formerly Known as Prince Iaukea. Yes, that was his full name

Had they voted back then, 1999's ****er of the Year would definitely be the Fingerpoke of Doom. Once you wrap up 2001, I'll post the angles/characters/matches from that year got inducted into Wrestlecrap's Hall of Fame!

Insurrextion 2001

Everyone's matches have been changed and Vince is not happy with Regal.

Vince's wife is responsible for all the changes on today's show. Regal's recapping a lot of these changes and its driving Vince insane.

Oh hey. Linda just showed up and she's in control again. Wonder how good this Linda restructured card will turn. The main event on the other hand hasn't been altered at all.

Foot and Mouth disease is being talked about. Remember when we had to kill off just about everything in sight when that epidemic happened?

JR couldn't make the trip to london but Heyman's around so all's good. We're about 7 minutes in and there's our first entrance!


Grandmaster Sexay Vs. Eddie Guerrero

Cole sounds so different, he's like really calm. Elbow by Eddie and a snapmare. What the hel is Sexay doing flopping around so much. Eddie's got the shades and he's making fun.

Boot by Sexay Eddie is dumped out of the ring and here's a baseball slide. Grandmaster starts to dance and Eddie attacks him. Taunting from latino heat. Sexay gets caught but an enziguri knocks dwon Eddie.

Backdrop and a clothesline. Grandmaster's got the momentum and Eddie takes a corner. Kick to the face and a powerbomb. Here come the goggles and Grandmaster goes for the hip hop drop and Guerrero gets out of the way.

Eddie sucks chants can be heard loud and clear. Sexay crashes into a corner and there's a pin Guerrero uses the ropes as leverage and he pulls out the win.


Stephanie is with Triple H and they're chatting loudly. Triple H comes with motorhead shirt.

There's that radicalz theme this means more Perry and Terri. Looks like Terri's refusing to wrestle.


The Radicalz Vs. Hardcore and Crash Holly

Molly's caught Terri, there's a slapfest. snap suplex and Molly's manhandling Terri. Slugfest between Hardcore and Perry. First blood goes to Hardcore. Suplex from Hardcore and Perry kicks out.

Clothesline and down goes Hardcore. Double team from the Hollys and Perry suplex Crash. Dean Malenko is tagged in. Droptoe Hold, foot to the face. Powerslam and Hardcore's in. Hardcore is cheapshotted by a nasty clothesline.

Crash comes in and he's cleaning house, Perry stops him in his track and Saturn got Holly in the corner. Weird Rana by Crash and Terri runs in to remove Crash. Molly and Terri have to be held back by their teams, meanwhile Perry uses a suplex and Crash is pinned.


Regal's being interviewed and he's got a fair few fans. We never got a Money match of Regal against Bulldog. Test is dead so we've got a match change.

Out comes the Big Show, woner who he'll be facing tonight then. Show calls Test a coward but out comes Test favouring his ribs.


Big Show Vs. Test

I guess we're getting the match afterall. Test is fighting and stomping and there's a lot of tape surrounding his ribs. Show dishes out of the sideslam.

Stomps on the ribs and an elbow drop on the ribs. Big Show using a neckbreaker and he's stepping all over the ribs, the refs are out to stop the match. Heyman calls out Test for being more stupid than brave. Big Show's walking away nobody can take him on.


OH WAIT A MINUTE SOMEONE'S WILLING TO FIGHT HIM! Bradshaw's out to beat the crap out of the Big show.

--
Dr voltchball - best in the world.

Big Show Vs. Bradshaw

Sidewalk Slam by the Big Show. I'm not sure why Bradshaw's out there but he's not doing very well ever since the action moved into the ring.

Oh wait he's punching back and Big Show's squashing him. On the outside Test is dying and moaning. Bradshaw's dodging an elbow drop and SHOUDLER BLOCK off the top knocks down Big Show.

Chokeslam incoming, Bradshaw holds on to the top rope and Big Show punches him out of the ring. Big Show's not done with Test he's got a chair at the ready, TEST WITH A BOOT! Down goes Show, Clothesline from Hell.

Bradshaw has won! He's been doing well this year.


Stone Cold is bullying The Coach.


FOUR TEAM ELIMINATION MATCH:

Edge and Christian Vs. X-Factor Vs. The Dudley Boyz Vs. The Hardy Boyz

Heyman: "Justin Credible who I know very very well"

Each team's going to pick a corner and X-Pac and Bubba Ray will likely start, Credible wants in though. Jabs from Credible, Bubba punches back, hiptooss and Justin tags out.

Matt is going to square off against Christian who forced a tag in. Christian already celebrating. Jeff is tagged in and the crowd is going crazy. Edge comes in and he hammers away. Jeff Hardy against Edge.

X-Pac comes in and everyone hates him. Jeff with a headscissor takedown and Matt tags in. Double team action on X-Pac.

The tables have turned and X-Pac rushes down on Matt, kicks and some stomps in the corner and the bronco buster does not gather a positive reaction. Justin Credible kicks and stomps as well. Hardy explodes with a double clothesline and he's looking to tag in anybody.

He finds Jeff, double dropkick and they get knocked around, Edge and Christian and The Dudleyz are brawling. All hell has broken loose. X-Pac gets caught for a twist of fate, Albert tries to interfere and fails miserably.

Swanton and out goes X-Factor. Unprettier on Jeff and the Hardyz have now been eliminated. Dudleyz haven't had much to do but here's a flapjack on Edge and Christian. Heyman points out how crowd favourites the Dudleyz like to wrestle slow, while the evil Edge and Christian use a lot of exciting high paced action.

Edge elbows Devon who is getting isolated, dropkick and Devon gets a shoulder up in time. Edge and Christian are making a fair few quick tags. Droptoe hold and Christian's keeping Devon in check. Edge tags in and continues the process. Both men are top rope and Devon pushes Edge off and he jumps in.

Bubba with a save, Devon's still in great trouble, Devon catches Christian off guard and plants him. Both men look for tags and Edge and bubba run in. Bubba cleans house Sidewalk slam, Christian elbows his partner, Bubba bomb on Christian. Devon with the flying headbutt on Edge.

Call for the tables. Double baseball slide, the table's raised and Edge an Christian get whacked, 3D is being setup and Edge pulls Christian to safety. GORE GORE GORE! RHYNO WITH THE GORE! Edge and Christian win! Little Spike Dudley just ran in to save his brothers. Rhyno takes a 3D!

So many adverts for these shows.


Oh hey look Eamon Holmes and Chris Tarrant, plenty of ITV stars on deck and ZOLA! ZOLA! ZOLA! ZOLA IS HERE HELL YEAH!

Right to Censor are out and Ivory's carrying a lot of tabloids. Hey look they've even censored the tabloids. Steven Richards wants to be our Martin Luther King. The ladies battle royal has been cancelled by the Right to censor.

Stevie asks the women to come out and first up is Jacqueline, Trish Stratus is up next, Lita gets the biggest reaction. Oh are these women the only ones participating in the Battle Royal? The women have had enough and they start ganging up on Ivory and she's losing all her clothes again.

--
Dr voltchball - best in the world.

Oh now the women are Richards are going to get it on. Trish's getting up close and personal with Richards and there's a low blow. Down go his trousers and he takes a DDT and a moonsault from Lita.

We get a video package on the submission match with Angle refusing to accept defeat. Benoit just stole Angle's medals as well.


TWO OUT OF THREE FALLS MATCH:

Chris Benoit Vs. Kurt Angle

Grappling early on and a lot of takedowns. Waistlock reversals and Kurt Angle's keeping his distance. They circle each other and back to the ground they go. Crossface is quickly let go of. Benoit's trying to get the arm and Angle's going for the ankle lock.

Benoit looks somewhat dazed and Angle's regrouping on the outside. Benoit punching away and Angle reverses, Benoit brings it down for a crossface. Angle's been getting out of those as fast as he can. Angle can now stomp on Benoit after bouncing him on the ropes. Snap Suplex by Angle on Benoit and he stomps on Benoit some more.

Belly to belly and Angle's now caught in Benoit's suplex. Momentum in this match is shifting ver quickly. Chops by Benoit and another suplex, another suplex and Angle's on the top rope. German Suplex by Benoit and Angle's taken a lot of them. Flying headbutt and Benoit pins Angle and takes up one fall.

Angle was playing possum and he squashes Benoit. Angle breaks up the ten count and Benoit's sort of just lying on the ground and looking hurt. Up goes Benoit on the top turnbuckle and Angle's punching him. Belly to Belly from the top and there's the count but Benoit kicks out.

Angle with another variation of the suplex and another cover that doesn't net him a win. He's going to wear down Benoit and suplex him to death. Guess what there's another suplex by Angle. This match has become Angle Suplex, Benoit kickout. Right hand by Angle and a small package by Benoit, didn't work. Benoit's now on the offense and he's chopping.

Reversal and some hard rights, rake to the eyes, DDT from Angle. Angle Slam countered, chop from Benoit and here come the germans, these guys are going to be dizzy. Benoit wants the suicide headbutt and Angle moved out of the way. Ankle Lock, countered into a Crossface, there's a series of rollups and HOLY WHAT THE HELL! Benoit just sweeped Angle in a two out of three falls match.

Oh hey the gold medals were down Benoit's pants.

Austin and Triple H are chatting. Debra is being called over she's the maid and she's starting to rebel. Austin can't control his woman.


Package of the upcoming Jericho vs commish match. Regal's out and the crowd's not able to fully boo him.


QUEEN'S CUP MATCH:

William Regal Vs. Chris Jericho

Stand off and Jericho's hair is crazy wet for this match. Jericho's got the wristlock and now Regal's got it. Hammerlocks are being used in this match and so are top rope maneuvers.

Chops by Jericho and Regal gets dropped on the barricade. Back to the ring they go and Jericho's crossbody covers Regal and there's a few stomps. Jericho can't quite get the Walls on and Y2J's shoulder gets whacked into the ringpost.

Regal working the arm now and Jericho is struggling to get out of it. Oh wow, Heyman's got a point Regal's got a huge bruise on his thigh. Headscissors by Jericho and a cover gets him nowhere. Dropkick Telegraphed, catapult and Regal's got all the momentum in the world.

Methodic offense so far by Regal. There's a guy with a lucha mask in the front row. Probably an El Santo or Mil Mascaras fanboy. Stomps from Regal and the cover is kicked out of. Elbow and Jericho's knocked out. Regal dumps Y2J back into the ring and he gets to beat him some more.

--
Dr voltchball - best in the world.

Sunset flip by Jericho, regal with a clothesline after the kickout. Back to wearing down Jericho in the center of the ring. Backdrop from Jericho, Lionsault into the knees and Regal goes for a cover but Y2J kicks out of that one. Rollup and Jericho's got the walls on and Regal taps out in no time at all.

Jericho's won the Queen's cup and he's raising it, the commish ain't happy and he's assaulting Jericho with the Cup destroying it in the process.


Next up should be the main event and the Two Man Power Trip gets to beat the crap out of anyone in their way. Kane got wrecked and JR went nuts.


MAIN EVENT:

WWF WORLD TITLE MATCH:

HANDICAP MATCH:

Triple H and Stone Cold Steve Austin (c) Vs. The Undertaker

Stone Cold is still really popular with the UK crowd. Dead Man Walking's entrance taking forever even though he has a bike, like how!

The two man power trip is waiting in the ring and Undertaker's got a chair and both men get the hell out of the ring. There's a huge Gangrel sign in the crowd.

Triple H attacks from behind and the ref gets rid of the chair and Triple H and Stone Cold are working together stomping on Undertaker in the corner. Whip and Undertaker knocks the two of them out.

Undertaker knocks out Triple H, Sidewalk slam on Austin, out goes Triple H chokeslam attempt and Triple H catches him by the leg. Slugfest between Triple H and Undertaker and Austin runs in from behind.

The battle has pretty much moved up the ramp and Austin's going for a piledriver, countered by a backdrop. Triple H gets knocked around and Undertaker stalks him some more. The announcing table gets cleared out.

Heyman is compaining that undertaker took his monitor. Old school on Triple H and there's a cover which Triple H kicked out of. DDT and Triple H is down for now. Cover but Austin comes in time to break it up.

Oh the handicap team has to make tags now. If Triple H gets pinned Austin doesn't lose his title either. Missed right hand, but he gets the Thesx Press and the rest of the moves that follow until Undertaker catches him by the throat.

Triple H runs in and gets punched, Austin in trouble and Triple H stops him again. Double cothesline and Stephanie's now distracting the ref and Austin uses that distraction to hit Undertaker with a chair. Triple H is useless as Undertaker kicks out.

The Bionic Redneck's now in there oh wait now he's not, now he is. Triple H has been using a lot of cheap shots and Austin's geting frustrated and he's gone for three covers.

Undertaker fights back and hammers Triple H, sleeper hold by The Game and we get shots of Stephanie. Undertaker's eyes are rolling up! Shades of the old and Triple H is using the ropes. Undertaker catches some kind of second wind and he explodes on Triple H.

Austin's in there and he's going for a sleeper and Undertaker reverses it, suplex to counter the sleeper and Austin comes in off the second rope, shot to the midsection by Undertaker. Austin and Triple H are overwhelming Undertaker again.

Now Triple H is going up top and he jumps into a boot to the face. Austin comes in and Undertaker's right hands are knocking him around. He's beating up both members of the power trip. Triple H just got chokeslammed through the table. This is now a singles match for now, Stunner fails, boot to the face and there's a low blow while Stephanie distracted the referee.

--
Dr voltchball - best in the world.

Chokeslam on Austin anyway and Undertaker's not going for the cover and he took too long as Triple H runs in for the save. The Game is going for the pedigree, reversed into a catapult. Facebuster and a clothesline, Triple H could win this on his own, big boos as Mr. McMahon is coming out ringside.

Steel chair and he just hit Triple H in the face chokeslam on Vince, Chokeslam on Triple H and he covers him for the win, chokeslam on Austin. Stone Cold retains! Undertaker's now got the chair and he's dishing out pain to everyone.

Dr voltchball - best in the world.

Only noteworthy angles/feud-closers at this point are the following...

- After splitting victories at WM and Backlash, Jericho and Regal close their feud in a cage match, which Jericho wins by kicking the door in Regal's face and diving to the floor
- Due to Test helping Shane beat Big Show, Big Show begins feuding with him (you already knew this), even to the point where Big Show helps the Right to Censor get their final win in existence! Somehow Rhyno gets involved too, only because Big Show helps Rhyno retain the Hardcore title against Test, which Rhyno doesn't appreciate.

Stay tuned for the time-period between Judgment Day and King of the Ring, when things finally begin to shake up!
