WINNER: Steve Austin by DQ via Undertaker nailing him with a shovel(8:02)9/10

Mankind an Boss Man battle outside while Undertaker is gonna nail him again with the shovel, but Bearer stops him as the show goes off the air.

COMMENTS: Most of the matches were won by DQs or distractons or countouts so the show did a poor part on the matches like it usually does on live RAWs.I hope Hawk is ok.I love it when Mankind goes on phycorampage! During the interview when Ken joined the "McMhan corporation"(Thats what I'm gonna call it until they give the group an official name) Vince said he could USE a person like Ken.So my guess is they're gonna Double cross Shamrock within 2 months.The show gets a B.C ya next week.
