J.R.:"Well they've been making the tag team division on PrimeTime very strong and tonight we will see who's at the top".
Future #1 Contenders for the TWF Tag team titles
The Acolytes vs. Sean O'haire and Albert
This was a hard hitting tag team war that shifted back and forth several times. Bradshaw started the match by pummelling O'haire with a few clubbing forearms to the back and then his patented fallaway slam. But after ducking a big clothesline, O'haire caught Bradshaw with a nice side hook kick to the head and made it to his corner to Albert who came in with a head of steam and bowled into Bradshaw with an avalanche in the corner. Albert then hit Bradshaw with a big splash and got a 2 count. Albert then tagged in O'haire but Bradshaw kicked him in the face right when he came in and tagged in Faarooq. After backing O'haire to the corner with some stiff right hands, Faarooq whipped O'haire to the opposite corner and followed him in but O'haire sidestepped him and chop blocked his knee out. O'haire and Albert then cut the ring in half and made 6 exchanges, working on Faarooq's knee. Albert went outside the ring and wrapped the knee around the steel ring post twice, causing severe pain. After a big powerslam, Albert tagged in O'haire who bounced off the ropes and was picked up by Albert and dropped right onto Faarooq. O'haire hooked the leg but Bradshaw came in and broke the count up. This started a melee between the 4 men. Albert went for his scissors kick but Bradshaw moved and Albert got caught in the ropes as Bradshaw pushed him to the floor. O'haire then caught Faarooq with a reverse deatch valley driver drop and charged at Bradshaw but he moved again and O'haire went right into Albert who had just returned to the apron, knocking him back to the floor. Bradshaw then winded up the "Clothesline from Hell" but O'haire ducked and jacked his jaw with a gorgeous superkick. But when O'haire turned around, he walked right into Faarooq's 1 handed spinebuster slam and Faarooq hooked the far leg to get the pin.
Match Time: 25:23
J.R.:"Wow, what action! These two teams just gave it their all and The Acolytes have emerged victorios"!
Lawler:"Well they're the number one contenders now J.R. and I'm tellin' ypu they're gonna face Chono and Muta"!
J.R.:"Well regardless of who their opponents will be, The Acolytes will get the chance to bring the tag team gold to the PrimeTime division somewhere in the near future".

CAMERAS BACKSTAGE PICK UP THE ARRIVAL OF "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN WHO FLINGS THE ENTRANCE DOOR OPEN. WITH A SERIOUS LOOK ON HIS FACE AND WEARING HIS CAMOFLAUGE STREET CLOTHES AND CARRYING A DUFFEL BAG, AUSTIN WALKS RIGHT BY MICHAEL COLE WHO IS WAITING FOR AN INTERVIEW.
Michael Cole:"Stone Cold, wait a minute".
AUSTIN JUST IGNORES COLE AND WALKS ON.
Lawler:"What is he doing here? He doesn't have a match"!
J.R.:"I have a feeling I know exactly why the Texas rattlesnake is here and if I were Drew Blood and that newcomer Deacon Batista, I'd be watching over my shoulder".
CHRISTIAN's THEME HITS AS HIS GOLD PYRO POURS DOWN FROM ABOVE THE TWF TRON AS HE COMES OUT WITH HIS ARMS OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT AS FOOTAGE FROM HIS ALTERCATION WITH DYLAN JANSENS ON SNME IS REPLAYED.
Lawler:"Look J.R., it's raining gold"!
J.R.:"In case you missed Saturday Night's Main Event folks, it was Christian who criticized Faith for what she sees in his brother Edge and it was Dylan Jansens who came to her defense once Christian began berating her. But as you look at the footage, notice Christian grab that mop after Jansens had already turned around and brake it over his back".
"IT's MY LIFE" BY BON JOVI HITS AS DYLAN JANSENS COMES OUT TO A FAVORABLE CROWD RESPONSE.
Lawler:"Oh come on J.R., you make it sound like Christian was out of line. Dylan Jansens needs to learn how to mind his own business".
J.R.:"Christian made the comment that it's youngsters like Jansens who are trying to steal his thunder here in the TWF but what thunder would that be King, bullying the women"?
Lawler:"Well Jansens is gonna wish he stayed out of that situation when Christian embarasses him here"!
J.R.:"I don't know about that King, I look for a fast paced matchup that could go either way. One mistake could prove costly here".
Dylan Jansens vs. Christian
This was a well contested match and perhaps the best all night. The match started with a collar and elbow tie up and the more experienced Christian gained control with an arm drag into a top wristlock. But Jansens used a somersault to escape and then flipped Christian over with an armbar twist. Jansens then caught Christian with a well placed dropkick right when he got to his feet. Christian stumbled into the corner but Jansens kept the pressure on, tagging Christian with a series of knifedge chops. But Christian got in a quick thumb to the eyes followed by a european uppercut to take control. He then grabbed Jansens by the back of the head and rammed him hard into the turnbuckle pad 3 times. After a scoop slam, Christian went for a lateral press and extended two feet onto the middle rope for leverage but Jansens still kicked out, 1 of 14 two counts in the match. Christian then whipped Jansens to the corner but missed with a clothesline and Jansens fired back with a quick jab followed by a high hip toss. That led to a headlock takedown but Christian quickly got up and ducked a clothesline, following it up with a reverse ddt to his knee. Christian went for the cover and got another 2 count. Frustrated, Christian went and loosened the string on one of the turnbuckle pads but Jansens came from behind with a schoolboy and got a 1....2..., but Christian used his legs to power out and immediately clotheslined him when he got up. Christian then whipped him to the corner but Jansens reversed it and followed him in with a nice monkey flip. Christian got up in the opposite corner and Jansens came flying in with a body splash but Christian moved and he hit face first on the post--- the exposed one. Christian then decided to go upstairs and came off with a gorgeous frog splash. Christian hooked the leg for the 1....2...., but no, Jansens shot his right shoulder off the canvas at the last second! Christian was irate as he began to kick the bottom rope repeatedly. He went to the top rope again but Jansens noticed him and gave him 3 quick shots to the bread basket and climbed up with him. Jansens then put Christian on his shoulders and came off with a beautiful samoan drop, crushing Christian. He hooked the leg for the 1....2..., but Christian kicked out just in time! Jansens then signaled for the "Dragon Stretch" but when he tried to lock it in, Christian gave him a shove in the rear with his free foot. Christian then got up and went for the "Un-Prettier" but Jansens blocked it with a move similar to the Edge-O-Matic. Jansens then quickly ascended the top rope and came off with a nice corkscrew senton bomb, landing right in the chest of Christian. Jansens slowly made his way over and covered him for the 1...2...3.
Match Time: 11:48
J.R.:"Wow what a match! These two have livened this crowd up King with that performance"!
Lawler:"That was great action and what a move by Jansens! I can't believe he beat Christian"!
J.R.:"Well he did and he calls that move the "Deep Sea Dive" and this guy Jansens is quickly moving up the ladder of success in the TWF King".
BACKSTAGE
Johnathan Coachman:"What a night it's been already here at Evil Intentions and right now I'm with the Hurricane who in just a couple short months has taken the TWF by storm and tonight has a chance to become Lightheavyweight champion".
The Hurricane:"A chance? Oh Coach, it's a foregone conclusion. Let me ask you something. Did you ever read a SpiderMan comic book".
Coachman:"No not really".
Hurricane:"Well if you did, you would know that when it came time to fight evil, he always rose to the occasion. And that's exactly what I am here to do tonight. You see, High Octane is evil, picking on a defenseless reporter like Gregory Helms. But when he did that, he sealed his fate. So you say chance Coach? I say, what's up wit dat"?
Coachman: (chuckling) "Okay guys the Hurricane is ready so let's get back to you".
HIGH OCTANE's THEME HITS AS HE COMES OUT WEARING THE LIGHTHEAVYWEIGHT BELT TO A TON OF BOOS.
Lawler:"The Hurricane truly believes he's a superhero J.R.".
J.R."Well both these guys have been very impressive in the lightheavyweight division on RAW and I look for a up tempo high flying affair and it could take a superhero to defeat High Octane with the way he's looked lately".
"STAND BACK...THERE's A HURRICANE COMIN' THROUGH" HITS AND THE LIGHTS GO OUT AS THE HURRICANE COMES OUT TO A BIG POP.
Lawler:"Can you believe that reporter the other night J.R., trying to get High Octane's strategy for this match"?
J.R.:"Yeah, amazing isn't it"?
Lawler:"And look at this guy with the mask and cape. He's gonna need a lot more than his Hurri-powers to win this one J.R.".
TWF Lightheavyweight Title Match
Challenger... The Hurricane vs. "High Octane" Damion West
As Hurricane removed his cape, High Octane asked referee Jack Doan to check his boots. As Doan did this, High Octane came from behind with an attack and the bell sounded. High Octane stood Hurricane up in the corner with some hard knifedge chops before whipping him to the corner and following in with a jumping calf kick. That led to a swinging neckbreaker and High Octane went for a cover but only got a 1 and a half. Hurricane was dazed but as High Octane charged him, he drilled him with a superkick that echoed throughout the arena. Hurricane then ducked a clothesline and scored with the "Eye of the Hurricane" out of nowhere and hooked the leg 1..2.... but High Octane got his foot on the bottom rope at the last possible second. Hurricane then whipped him to the far corner and followed him in but High Octane slung over him and went for the "Head on Collision" but Hurricane moved and scored with a tornado ddt. He hooked the leg deep for the 1...2..., but again High Octane escaped. Hurricane then whipped him to the ropes and hit him with a hard jumping clothesline before scoop slamming him. Hurricane then went to the top rope and came off with a cross body block but High Octane rolled through it and got a very near fall. After a spinning heel kick, High Octane went to the top rope and came off but Hurricane superkicked him in mid air. One more time, Hurricane went to the top rope and scored with the "Hurri-Breaker" to get the 3 count as a new Lightheavyweight champion was crowned.
Match Time: 3:07
J.R.:"Just like that, the title has switched hands! Whatcha got to say about the superhero now King"?
Lawler:"I can't believe it J.R., High Octane had him right where he wanted him".
J.R.:"He apparently underestimated the resilience of The Hurricane! What a win for him"!
BACKSTAGE
FAITH IS BACKSTAGE GETTING HERSELF A BEVERAGE WHEN STACY KIEBLER COMES UP.
Stacy Kiebler:"Well look at this. Nothin' like comin' to the concession area and finding trash".
Faith:"What do you mean by that"?
Stacy:"Oh come on. Do you honestly think that you and Edge aren't a disgusting couple"?
Faith:"Oh, and you and Matt Hardy look good with each other? Please".
Stacy:"Ugh, I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that".
Faith:"Well it'll be pretty hard to pretend you didn't feel this".
JUST THEN, FAITH REACHES BACK AND SLAPS HER ACROSS THE FACE. STACY RESPONDS WITH A SLAP OF HER OWN AND FAITH TAKES HER DRINK AND SPLASHES IT IN STACY's FACE. A SCUFFLE STARTS AND THE TWO BEGIN TO PULL EACH OTHER's HAIR WHEN SECURITY RUSHES IN TO SEPERATE THEM. BEFORE THEY CAN, FAITH RAMS STACY's HEAD RIGHT INTO A TABLE.
J.R.:"My gosh what got into those two"?
Lawler: (excitedly) "I don't know but if need be, I'll pull them apart"!
OTHER SIDE OF THE ARENA
Lilian Garcia:"Well Rey, this is the night you've been waiting for. Your chance to get your hands on X-Pac who has singled you out since you turned down an offer to join the NWO. Is that a decision you regret"?
Rey Mysterio:"Are you kidding? I'd do it all over again Lilian. Ya see, X-Pac ain't gonna have his nunchucks tonight and he's gonna have to face me like a man. I might be small Lilian, but X-Pac will find out what just about everyone who's stepped in the ring with me. Size doesn't matter when you have heart. Tonight it's all about heart and X-Pac, get ready cause I'm gonna bring it to you".
THE NWO THEME HITS AND X-PAC COMES OUT TWIRLING HIS NUNCHUCKS.
Lawler:"I must be hearing things J.R.. I could swear I just heard Rey Mysterio say he wouldn't have those nunchucks J.R.".
J.R.:"Well he shouldn't and if he wants any respect at all, he won't use them to his advantage".
"BOW WOW WOW" HITS AS REY MYSTERIO COMES OUT TO ONE OF THE BIGGEST POPS ALL NIGHT.
Lawler:"He should already have all these people's respect. He's one of the greatest wrestlers in the world"!
J.R.:"Well lately he's been doing things from behind like attacking this man with nunchucks but this has been a dream match of many of these fans for a number of years and this is actually the first King of the Ring qualifying match for the RAW division King".
Lawler:"King Mysterio? God I hope we don't even have to think about that".
King of the Ring Qualifying Match
X-Pac vs. Rey Mysterio, Jr.
X-Pac came out very agressive in a match that set the tone for the rest of the night. After several kicks to the midsection backed Mysterio into the corner, X-Pac caught him right under the chin with a spinning kick that knocked Mysterio down in the corner. X-Pac then used his Bronco Buster and then did a little showboating in the ring as the crowd booed loudly. X-Pac didn't lay off as he kept the offense coming on Mysterio. He then whipped him to the ropes but Mysterio grabbed the top rope and spun around between the top two ropes and caught X-Pac with a wheel kick, dazzling the crowd. Mysterio then scored with a hurracnarana when X-Pac got to his feet and covered him for the 1..2..., but X-Pac kicked out. Both men knew the other well and the match reflected it as no one could score the knockout blow and several times both men were thinking the same thing. Mysterio caught X-Pac coming off the ropes with another hurracanrana and hooked his legs as they came down but at the last possible second, X-Pac kicked out. When they got to their feet, X-Pac drilled him with a spinning heel kick and then went and grabbed his nunchucks. Referee Brian Hebner got in his face but X-Pac threatened to hit him with them. Mysterio got up and X-Pac took a swing at him but Mysterio moved and the nunchucks caught the top rope and bounced back right in X-Pac's face! Seizing the oppurtunity, Mysterio went to the top rope and came off with a gorgeous 450 splash, knocking everything out of X-Pac. Mysterio hooked the near leg and got the 1....2...3 to win it.
Match Time: 9:17
J.R.:"What a move! Mysterio has just qualified for the King of the Ring tournament and exacted a little revenge against X-Pac at the same time"!
Lawler:"This is ridiculous! The nunchucks weren't supposed to do that"!
J.R.:"It serves him right! The nunchucks came back and bit X-Pac on the ass in the end"!
PARKING LOT
A LIMO PULLS UP AND SHANE McMAHON GETS OUT WITH BROCK LESNAR. "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN APPROACHES.
Shane:"What's up Steve"?
Austin:"Don't what's up me Shane. I want Drew Blood's ass in that ring tonight and I want you to sign the match now".
Shane:"I'm sorry Steve, but with all the destruction that's sure to come tonight, I can't sanction that match right now".
BROCK LESNAR SMILES AND HE AND SHANE PASS BY AUSTIN WHO IS OBVIOUSLY FRUSTRATED.
McMAHON PERSONAL SUITE
SCOTT HALL AND KEVIN NASH STAND BEFORE VINCE McMAHON.
Vince McMahon:"I don't want you guys to show any mercy tonight. Sam Wilde needs to pay and I want you two to destroy him, make him suffer".
Scott Hall:"No problem boss".
Kevin Nash:"You couldn't of picked two better guys to get the job done".
Vince:"That's what I wanna hear, now get to it".
AN ORGAN IS HEARD AND LEADS INTO "HERO" BY CHAD KROEGER AS SAM WILDE COMES OUT TO A GREAT RESPONSE.
J.R.:"Mr. McMahon is one sick individual telling Hall and Nash to do his dirty work and I'm sorry for this folks but this is bullshit"!
Lawler:"Why do you say that J.R.? This idiot asked for it"!
THE NWO THEME HITS AS HALL AND NASH COME OUT TO A MIXED REACTION BUT A LOT OF CHEERS CAN BE MADE OUT.
J.R.:"He didn't ask for anything and now he's gotta face one of the best tag teams of our time! Forget that they're tremendous singles stars, this will be a handicap match"!
Lawler:"It all dates back to War in the Winter and that New Year's battle royale which Sam Wilde won J.R. and then the idiot brought back the fired Rowdy Roddy Piper to be Commissioner as his New Year's resolution! You don't think that irked the boss"?
J.R.:"Sam Wilde then left the TWF thinking his work was complete but he says he was told by the man upstairs to come back and he has been put in what Vince has been calling punishment matches but I don't think punishment would be the appropriate word for this one".
Lawler:"He's got no one to blame but himself J.R.".
Handicap Match
Sam Wilde vs. The Outsiders
Nash started the match off and charged at Wilde who ducked a clothesline and kicked Nash twice in the shin beforebouncing off the ropes and dropkicking him in the knee. Nash went down to one knee and Wilde bounced off the ropes again but Hall hit him in the back of the head. Wilde turned around and took a swing at Hall but Nash came from behind with a big elbow to the shoulder area. Nash then tagged in Hall who came in and lit Wilde up with his vicious right hands. Hall then whipped him into the ropes but Wilde used a go under and then rolled Hall up in a small package to get a quick 1...2..., but Hall kicked out and caught Wilde with a clothesline when he got up. Hall then looked at Nash with a pair of wide open eyes and Nash said to him "let's get serious". Hall then rammed Wilde into the turnbuckle and tagged in Big Sexy who came in and measured Wilde in the corner with a couple hard back elbows. He then whipped him into the ropes and dropped him with a hard sidewalk slam and hooked the leg for the 1...2..., but Wilde kicked out. The crowd started to get behind Wilde as Nash whipped him in again but Wilde ducked a clothesline and went for a dropkick but Nash just swatted him away and tagged in Hall. Hall came in and delivered his fallaway slam. He then hooked the leg and got a 1....2..., but again Wilde kicked out. Hall slapped the mat in frustration before setting him on the top rope and going for a back suplex off of it. But Wilde backflipped off Hall's shoulder and landed right on his feet. He then ran and grabbed Hall's arm and brought him off the ropes with an arm drag before catching him with a flying back elbow. Wilde was cookin' as he kicked Hall in the midsection and scored with a hard ddt. He then whipped him to the ropes but Hall reached his hand out and made a blind tag to Nash which Wilde didn't detect. As Hall came off the ropes, Wilde caught him with a hip toss. But when he turned around, Nash caught him with a running boot to the face that sent saliva flying out of the side of his mouth. Nash hooked the leg and got the 3 count as the NWO theme came on. Hall and Nash high fived one another but then they looked at Wilde and got grins on their faces as the music stopped.
Match Time: 9:36
J.R.:"What an admirable fight put up by Sam Wilde but the numbers game finally caught up to him there at the end".
Lawler:"Wait a minute J.R., I don't think Hall and Nash are satisfied".
J.R.:"Oh my god, what are they gonna do now"?
NASH GRABBED WILDE AND RAISED ONE ARM IN THE AIR AS HE POSITIONED HIM FOR THE JACKNIFE BUT SUDDENLY, FRANCINE APPEARED IN THE ENTRANCEWAY. HALL CAUGHT A GLIMPSE OF HER AND POINTED FOR NASH TO SEE. NASH RELEASED WILDE WHEN HE SAW HER.
AS HALL AND NASH LOOKED ON WONDERING WHAT FRANCINE WAS DOING, NEMESIS JUMPED OVER THE GAURDRAIL FROM THE CROWD AND CAME INTO THE RING WITH A BASEBALL BAT. HE STRUCK NASH RIGHT ACROSS THE BACK OF THE SHOULDERS WITH THE BAT! HALL CAME OVER AND TAGGED NEMESIS WITH 3 RIGHT HANDS, FORCING HIM TO DROP THE BAT. HE THEN WHIPPED HIM TO THE ROPES AND WENT FOR A CLOTHESLINE BUT NEMESIS DUCKED AND SLAPPED HIS RIGHT HAND AROUND HALL's THROAT. THAT LED TO A THUNDEROUS CHOKESLAM AND FORCED HALL AND NASH TO RETREAT AS "IN MY DARKEST HOUR" BY MEGADEATH BLARED OVER THE LOUDSPEAKERS AND WILDE GOT UP AND STARED AT NEMESIS. NEMESIS GRABBED HIS BAT AND POINTED IT AT WILDE BEFORE LEAVING THE RING.
Lawler:"What the hell is going on"?!
J.R.:"I don't know, but thank god Nemesis came out here or I don't think there would've been anything left of Sam Wilde"!
Lawler:"I can just imagine Vince's frame of mind right now because of this"!

TRAVIS WAKEMAN AND TRISH ENTER THE ARENA AND SHORTLY THEREAFTER, STEPHANIE APPROACHES THEM.
Stephanie:"Hey Wakeman, wait up".
Trish:"Can we help you"?
Stephanie:"Well actually, I don't have anything to say to you but Travis, I just wanted to say that I hope you kick my brother's ass tonight".
Travis Wakeman:"I plan to do a lot more than that".
Stephanie:"Good. But I'm also here to tell you that Nails would like a shot at your Toughman title next".
Wakeman:"Nails wants a shot at this? (he pats the belt on his shoulder) I'll put this on the line against anybody so if there's a way that the match can be signed, no problem".
Stephanie:"Well I'm sure we can find a way to sign it".
Trish:"Ya know, I think we have a match to go get ready for".
TRISH PULLS WAKEMAN BY THE ARM AND THEY WALK AWAY.
Trish:"I hate that bitch".
Lawler:"Nails wants a Toughman shot"?
J.R.:"Frankly I'd love to see that match and maybe it'll happen the next time we're on pay-per-view when we come to you live from Reunion Arena in Dallas, Texas and King, the King of the Ring tournament will be very interesting this year and we are also being told that this will be the first interdivisional pay-per-view since the roster split".
Lawler:"Well Rey Mysterio has already qualified for the tournament and more qualifying matches will be held on RAW and PrimeTime".
BACK TO THE ACTION, RHYNO's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT POUNDING HIS CHEST TO NUMEROUS BOOS.
J.R.:"Well folks, as Rhyno makes his way out here for what should be a huge tag match, we wanna show you some footage from earlier today with Jordan Rockwell in the trainer's office".
JORDAN ROCKWELL IS SITTING ON AN EXAMINATION BED WITH LITA AT HIS SIDE.
Trainer:"That chair shot you took on Saturday Night's Main Event has unfortunately left you with a concussion and I can't clear you to wrestle tonight".
Jordan Rockwell:"Look doc, I don't care if you'll clear me or not, I'm gonna wrestle in that match and I'm gonna get my hands on Venis".
Trainer:"I'm sorry Jordan, but if you are to sustain any further damage, it'll be my responsibility. I can't let you go out there tonight".
Rockwell:"Well doc, I'll apologize for this later because I'm going out there".
SUDDENLY, ROCKWELL TAKES THE DOCTOR AND THROWS HIM HEAD FIRST INTO THE WALL. HE AND LITA THEN LEAVE THE OFFICE.
BACK TO RINGSIDE, VAL VENIS' MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A CHORUS OF BOOS.
Lawler:"That chair shot has gotten Rockwell to doin' some stupid things. He'll have to pay for that one".
J.R.:"He'll probably take a hit in the pocket book but this man here is the reason for it all. He tried to take Rockwell out of this match and he couldn't do it".
CHRIS BENOIT's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GREAT POP.
Lawler:"On the same night, this guy was Gored right into the wall by Rhyno, I can't believe he can even walk"!
J.R.:"Chris Benoit is a fighter King. There's not much that can keep him down.
"ROCK HARD" BY JA RULE HITS AS JORDAN ROCKWELL AND LITA APPEAR TO ONE OF THE BIGGEST POPS ALL NIGHT. THE EUROPEAN TITLE IS AROUND ROCKWELL's WAIST.
This man is a fighter to and even though I didn't agree with what he did to the trainer, it shows his determination".
Lawler:"You mean he's actually gonna compete with a concussion"?
J.R.:"You're damn right he is".
Lawler:"This guy is stupider than he looks"!
Jordan Rockwell and Chris Benoit vs. Val Venis and Rhyno
The match started off between Rhyno and Benoit who quickly got into a heated exchange. Benoit went for a german suplex quickly into it but Rhyno countered with a back elbow to the face. Rhyno backed Benoit to the corner with some high impact shoulders to the gut. Rhyno then whipped him to the opposite corner and charged in but Benoit moved and lit him up with his signature knifedge chops as the fans went "WHOOOO"! after each one. After a few kicks to the midsection, Benoit twisted Rhyno's arm around twice and tagged in Rockwell who came in and kept the pressure on the elbow. But with his low center of gravity and leg strength, Rhyno was able to power out of the arm twist with a shoulder back drop. He then whipped Rockwell into the ropes and went for a clothesline which Rockwell ducked but Rhyno turned around, picked Rockwell up and planted him with a hard spinebuster. Rhyno then made it to his corner and tagged in Venis who came in and stomped away at the head of Rockwell, trying to aggravate his injury. He then blatantly choked him, drawing a 4 count from referee Mike Chioda. Venis then went over and took a cheap shot at Benoit who tried to come in but was held up by Chioda. This allowed Rhyno and Venis to double team Rockwell. As Rhyno draped Rockwell over the top rope, Venis went to the apron and pulled down on the back of his head. They then whipped him into the ropes and used a double back drop before Chioda turned around and forced Rhyno out of the ring. Venis then whipped Rockwell in but Rockwell ducked a knifedge chop and bounced off the far side ropes. Thinking the same thing, both men went for a clothesline and drilled each other. Rockwell got the worst of it as he held his head in pain. Venis made it to his corner and tagged in Rhyno but Rockwell made the tag to Benoit. However, Venis was distracting Chioda and he didn't see the tag so he forced Benoit out of the ring. This allowed another double team and Benoit had had enough He came in and chopped Venis across the chest several times before clotheslining him to the floor. Venis went around the ring and grabbed a steel chair but when he got to the apron, Rockwell caught him with a jumping hook kick which knocked him to the floor. In the ring, Rhyno charged Benoit but Benoit grabbed his arm and took him straight down into the Crossface. Rhyno was tapping but Benoit was bot the legal man. Meanwhile, Rockwell bounced off the ropes and went for a suicide dive on Venis but Venis took the chair and stuck it right in Rockwell's face. Chioda didn't see because he was trying to seperate Benoit and Rhyno. Benoit then went over to Venis and the two traded shots as Chioda counted Rockwell out. Right as Benoit turned around, he was stuck with the Gore as Venis' music hit.
Match Time: 8:44
J.R.:"Well I'll be damned! Venis and Rhyno are gonna get out of here with a count out victory"!
Lawler:"That oughta help his concussion alright! Ahahahaha"!
J.R.:"It certainly won't do it any favors but the situation between Rockwell and Venis is far from over as is the one between Rhyno and Benoit for that matter".

STACY WALKS AWAY.
Jeff Hardy:"Hey Matt".
Matt Hardy:"So what's up little bro. Where's your partner from Team Extreme".
Jeff:"He had some family matters to take care of".
Matt:"And you didn't go with him? Oh that's right, you don't care about family matters do you? But he's not your family either, is he"?
Jeff:"Come on Matt, I don't need this. I came to see how you were doing".
Matt:"Ya know, I've experienced the best time of my TWF career since they split the roster and put us in seperate divisions. Hell, a couple weeks ago I pinned Stone Cold Steve Austin. What have you done on RAW? Had a couple tag matches against Chuck and Billy"?
Jeff:"Matt, seriously I didn't come here for this".
Matt:"Ya know Jeff, next month is King of the Ring and I'm gonna win it. Are you gonna be there to congratulate me"?

OTHER SIDE OF THE ARENA
LILIAN GARCIA IS STANDING NEXT TO AKASHA WHO IS HOLDING A TOY BARBIE DOLL.
Lilian Garcia:"Akasha, in just moments you are gonna get a shot at the TWF Women's title. Now I don't know if you've heard or not, but a lot of the women here in the TWF are upset at you getting that shot due to you being such a newcomer".
Akasha:"Yes, I've heard that Lilian. That's why I added a stipulation into the contract at the last minute. I am so confident that I will take Cammie Copeland through a quick world of misery she has never experienced that if I lose, I will never, ever get another shot at this belt. I have looked at the TWF for quite awhile now and all I have wanted is to come in and show what a real woman can do in this division. The bleached blonde barbie doll bimbos in this company will soon see the cloud of darkness form over the women's division. That cloud will form when I win that title Lilian. (Suddenly, Akasha strikes a match and lights the barbie doll on fire) And once that cloud forms, it will never disappear".
AKASHA DROPS TH BURNING DOLL TO THE GROUND AND WALKS AWAY. CREW MEMBERS BACKSTAGE COME IN AND OUT IT OUT WITH A BUCKET OF WATER.
THE LIGHTS GO OUT AND THE IMAGE OF LIGHTNING STRIKING IS SEEN AND AN EERIE THEME SONG HITS AS AKASHA MAKES HER WAY DOWN THE AISLE.
J.R.:"In all my years in this business, I don't know that I've ever seen a more dark person than this Akasha. She has problems King".
Lawler:"I don't think I have either J.R. but I think it's gonna be Cammie Copeland who has the problems tonight".
CAMMIE COPELAND's BRAND NEW THEME "GIRL POWER" BY NATALIE IMBRUGLIA HITS AS SHE COMES OUT WEARING THE WOMEN's GOLD TO A TREMENDOUS CHEER.
J.R.:"Cammie Copeland has certainly been one of the best TWF Women's champions on record and remember King, she took this title from Jazz not too long ago and Jazz is a hell of a competitor. If she can wrestle a similar match, I give her a fighting chance".
Lawler:"Well there's no doubt that Cammie is a great Women's champion, I mean, look at what she has to offer, if ya know what I mean. But that's exactly what Akasha says she's fighting against. She wants to not only win the Women's title, but change the image of women wrestlers as well".
TWF Women's Title Match
Challenger.... Akasha vs. Cammie Copeland
As soon as the bell rang, Akasha was all over Cammie like a wild animal. Cammie could not find a defense from some serious forearm shots from Akasha. Akasha then military press slammed her and it became painful for Cammie fans to watch as Akasha dropped a big leg across her throat. Akasha hooked the leg and got a 2 count as Cammie was in a lot of trouble. Akasha then planted her with a reverse ddt and shocked the crowd as she went to the top rope and came off with a double stomp, driving the heels of her boots into Cammie's chest. Akasha wanted to inflict more pain though. She pulled Cammie up by the hair and whipped her to the ropes but Cammie jumped on Akasha's shoulders and went for a headscissor takedown but the powerful Akasha countered by throwing Cammie off her shoulders. When she got up, she delivered a devastating evenflow ddt. Cammie was motionless as Akasha set her up on the top turnbuckle. Akasha then impressed everyone in attendance by bringing Cammie down with a frankensteiner. Akasha slowly crawled over the fallen Cammie and got the 3 count to win the title.
Match Time: 4:22
Lawler:"Wow! Now that was impressive J.R., you gotta admit".
J.R.:"I'm speechless King. I don't know what to say. I didn't expect to see such a one sided match. This woman may be unstoppable".
Lawler:"Well that cloud has formed over the whole division now J.R. and you heard what she said, it's not gonna go away"!
TWF RE-WIND
THE TWF RE-WIND SHOWS WHAT STRIFE DID TO MASA CHONO AND THE GREAT MUTA ON SATURDAY NIGHT's MAIN EVENT.
THE NWO THEME PLAYS AND CHONO AND MUTA COME OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT FROM THE PHILADELHIA CROWD.
Lawler:"Can you believe what Strife did to these two J.R.? In my opinion, it will motivate Chono and Muta to finally end this title reign".
J.R.:"Just a few days ago on TWF.com, Strife and Bahamut gave a very candid interview and if you didn't catch this interview, I suggest that you do. But King, as far as what Strife did to them goes, if it was the other way around, you'd say they deserved it".
"BOMBSHELL" BY POWERMAN 5000 HITS AS STRIFE AND BAHAMUT COME OUT TO AN EXTREMELY LOUD OVATION.
Lawler:"He went way too far J.R., no one deserves that"!
J.R.:"They are the best tag team in TWF history and I've said it before, I don't think there's a team out there that can beat them. They are also both tremendous singles wrestlers as we saw Bahamut defeat the TWF champion Undertaker just a couple weeks ago".
Lawler:"Well I think what Strife did will be their downfall and if I were Bahamut, I'd be very wary of that".
TWF Tag Team Title Match
Challengers... Masa Chono and The Great Muta vs. Strife and Bahamut
NWO Japan came into the match very focused, making frequent exchanges. Muta and Bahamut had a great series in the ring as Muta punished him with his martial arts background. But after catching Mut with a tilt-a-whirl-sideslam, Bahamut tagged in Strife who came in and took out Muta with a big clothesline. He then dropped Chono with a big forearm that knocked him off the apron but Muta came from behind with a chopblock to the knee. The focus then became Strife's left knee as Muta and Chono took turns stomping away at it. Muta then came in and wrenched his left leg behind his head and pulled it towards him. Strife was in a lot of pain as Muta grabbed him leg from outside the ring and wrapped it around the steel post. Moments later, Muta whipped the big man in but put his head down too early. Strife picked him up for a powerbomb but as he sit on Strife's shoulders, Muta spit mist in Strife's face and fell straight down on him for the 1.....2...., but Strife just kicked out. Muta tagged in Chono who continued the assualt on the leg. He whipped him to the corner and followed him in but Strife dodged him and caught him with a hard full nelson slam. Strife then hobbled to the corner and tagged in Bahamut who came in with a full head of steam and took Chono down with a running forearm. He then pulled Muta in the ring and whipped him right into Chono, he then picked Muta up in a gorilla press and slammed him to the floor. Strife went after Muta as Chono went out the opposite side of the ring and grabbed a steel chair. Strife pummelled Muta with a succession of right hands but in the ring, Bahamut turned around and was drilled right in the face with a chair from Chono. Chono hooked the leg and got the 1....2...., but somehow, Bahamut kicked out! Chono couldn't believe it. He waited for Bahamut to get up and when he did, he threw a roundhouse kick at him but Bahamut ducked and locked in a full nelson. From there, he turned it into a german suplex and dropped Chono right on his head to get a 3 count as Strife and Bahamut retained the titles!
Match Time: 14:02
J.R.:"What a match! Not even the underhanded tactics of Chono and Muta could get those titles away from these two"!
Lawler:"I can't believe it J.R.! What's it gonna take"?!
J.R.:"This is certainly a team for the ages and they've added another win to their growing total tonight".
COMMISSIONER PIPER's OFFICE
STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN IS AT PIPER's DESK DEMANDING A MATCH WITH DREW BLOOD TONIGHT.
Commissioner Piper:"Listen Steve, I understand your situation and believe me, there will be a time and place for you and Drew Blood, it just can't be tonight".
Austin:"So you're tellin' me I gotta wait to whip his ass"?
Piper:"Yeah, that's what I'm tellin' you.
THERE's A KNOCK AT THE DOOR.
You wanna get that"?
AUSTIN OPENS THE DOOR AND IS BLASTED BY DEACON BATISTA's CHAIN WRAPPED FIST. AUSTIN FALLS TO THE GROUND WITH A CUT OVER HIS EYE AS DREW BLOOD COMES IN AND STANDS OVER HIM, LAUGHING.
Piper:"Get the heck out of here, now"!
Drew Blood:"No problem Piper, you don't have to ask twice, I don't need you anyway".
DREW BLOOD AND DEACON BATISTA LEAVE THE OFFICE AND SOON AFTER, SEVERAL EMT's COME IN TO CHECK ON AUSTIN.
J.R.:"Just what the hell is going on between Drew Blood and Austin and where did the Deacon come from"?
Lawler:"Well J.R., I know we do RAW but I watch PrimeTime to and Drew made it simple. He thinks he can beat Austin and he thinks he's been held back by this company. The Deacon is his new right hand man and more specifically his crypt keeper".
J.R.:"That's ridiculous. And if he doesn't need anyone, why does he have this man with him"?
"HERE COMES THE MONEY" HITS AS SHANE McMAHON COMES OUT DOING HIS USUAL DANCE AS BROCK LESNAR FOLLOWS HIM OUT.
Lawler:"Oh here we go J.R.! This should be a good one"!
J.R.:"If you've tuned in to watch PrimeTime in a regular basis, this man here has been the subject of Travis Wakeman's anger of late and Wakeman tried to do everything to get Shane to take this match".
Lawler:"And the thing that finally made Shane accept, Wakeman didn't even do"!
"MAKE WAY" BY METHOD MAN HITS AS TRAVIS WAKEMAN COMES OUT WITH THE TWF TOUGHMAN TITLE CLINCHED IN HIS RIGHT HAND AS HE FOLLOWS TRISH DOWN. HIS PYRO EXPLODES IN THE BACKGROUND AS THE CAMERA PICKS UP A VERY CONFIDENT LOOKING SHANE.
J.R.:"Well Wakeman did present videotape evidence that he was somewhere else when Shane's car was destroyed but I don't buy his alibi King. Who else would be stupid enough to destroy the boss' brand new Porsche"?!
Lawler:"Well someone was and the question is, will he reveal himself tonight"?
J.R.:"Well if Wakeman has anything up his sleeve, Shane's got the equalizer in his personal bodygaurd Brock Lesnar down here with him".
Lawler:"Oh, I think there's something up his sleeve".
TWF Toughman Title Match
Challenger.... Shane McMahon vs. Travis Wakeman
Right when the bell rang, Shane took a wild swing at Wakeman that he ducked and Shane soon began covering up as Wakeman hit him with right hands to the body before a European uppercut jerked his head back. Wakeman then grabbed Shane under the arm and flung him across the ring. He then locked in a dragon sleeper and had Shane in a lot of trouble. But Shane worked his way to a standing position and dangerously flipped over Wakeman's shoulder. When Wakeman turned around, Shane kicked him in the groin. Shane then went into his boxing stance and caught Wakeman with 3 moving jabs. But when Shane went for a knockout right hand following his little shake, Wakeman drilled him with a clothesline that about knocked him out of his boots. Wakeman then Shane into the corner so hard he flung forward. Wakeman picked Shane up and sent him to the opposite corner so hard it looked like it moved the ring. Wakeman then grabbed Shane's right arm and sat down on it twice. Wakeman then used a dragon arm whip and Shane was yelling in pain. But Wakeman was relentless. He whipped Shane into the ropes and locked in an abdominal stretch. But showing a lot of guts, Shane didn't give in. Wakeman then reached his hand out for Trish to grab, which she did, giving Wakeman even more leverage. But she let go when the imposing Brock Lesnar made his way over to her. Wakeman saw this and went over to the ropes. As he yelled at Lesnar, Shane got up. When Wakeman turned around, Shane clotheslined him to the floor. He then went underneath the ring and pulled out a duffel bag full of weapons. He took out a kendo stick and threw it into the ring. He then grabbed another kendo stick and began wailing away at the back of Wakeman. As the two moved up the ramp, Shane dropped Wakeman with a trash can lid. Then came the moment of the night. Shane decided to climb the set of the entry way which was 2 huge letters. An E and an I for Evil Intentions with a flaming sword in the middle. Shane climbed up the E which was a metal structure. As the crowd became louder, Shane flew off with a perfectly placed elbow, crashing right onto Wakeman. But Shane was hurt too as the crowd chanted "HOLY SHIT, HOLY SHIT"! Lesnar came over and picked up a groggy Shane. Shane picked Wakeman up and charged at him but Wakeman picked him up and dropped him on the ramp with a spinebuster. Wakeman then went through the curtains into the backstage area and came out holding up his trademark metal pipe. But when he lifted it above his head to strike Shane, Lesnar came from behind and took in. Wakeman turned and faced Lesnar but Shane came from behind with a lowblow. Shane led Wakeman back to the ring and rolled him in. Shane then grabbed the other kendo stick and when Wakeman got to his feet, Shane cracked him over the head with it. Shane then called for Lesnar to enter the ring which he did. Shane pulled Wakeman up and signaled to the crowd that it was over. But just then, Lesnar lifted Shane onto his shoulders and put him down with his helicopter drop! Wakeman then slowly got to his feet and slapped on the "Round Table" and Shane had no choice but to tap out. Wakeman then faced Lesnar who got a smile on his face and then picked up Shane and delivered a devastating double powerbomb! Trish entered the ring and wrapped her arms around Wakeman as Wakeman and Lesnar knocked fists and referee Chad Patton handed him the Toughman belt.
Match Time: 14:20
J.R.:"Oh my god, don't tell me"!
Lawler:"It was Lesnar J.R.! It was right under Shane's nose all along"!
J.R.:"Why has Lesnar aligned himself with Wakeman? Oh these two are gonna have hell to pay"!
Lawler:"He's ready for the big time J.R.! He's the next big thing and who better to show him how to get to the top then Wakeman! This is brilliant"!
J.R.:"This is disgusting"!

"REAL AMERICAN" HITS AS HULK HOGAN COMES OUT TO EASILY THE BIGGEST POP OF THE NIGHT.

J.R.:"It'd easily be the biggest win of his career".
Eddie Guererro vs. Hulk Hogan
As soon as Hogan entered the ring, Eddie jumped him from behind with a hard forearm to the back and then ripped his bandana off and stomped on it several times before catching him with a european uppercut. But it didn't take long for Hogan to start wagging his finger in Guerrero's face. After blocking a right hand and catching Guerrero with one of his own, Hogan whipped him to the corner and followed in with a hard clothesline. He then delivered 3 right hands before whipping him to the ropes and catching him with the big boot. Hogan then looked into the crowd as the majority of it rose to their feet. Hogan then bounced off the ropes and crashed onto Guerrero with the legdrop to get the 3 count and the win.
Match Time: 2:22
J.R.:"Just like that, it's Hogan who has won in a heartbeat King"!

TWF Title Match
Challenger... Triple H vs. The Undertaker
These two stood toe to toe, trading shots for several minutes with neither man being able to get a clear advantage until The Undertaker caught him with a boot to the face as he came off the ropes. The Undertaker then dropped 2 big elbows across his chest and went for the cover to get a 2 count. He then whipped him to the corner and followed in with a clothesline. As Triple H went down, The Undertaker loosened the same turnbuckle pad that Christian removed earlier in the night. The Undertaker kept the pressure on with his soup bone right hands. Undertaker then whipped him to the corner but Triple H reversed it and came flying in but The Undertaker sidestepped him and rammed his head right into the steel bolt. As Triple H rolled over, the camera picked up his grimmacing face dripping with blood just above his eye. The Undertaker then whipped him to the ropes but put his head down too early and Triple H capitalized with a facebuster to the knee. Suddenly, Stephanie McMahon came running down the aisle and jumped up on the apron as The Undertaker slid out of the ring. Triple H noticed Stephanie and went and pushed her right off the apron to the floor. But The Undertaker got into the ring with a steel chair and tried to hit Triple H with it. But referee Earl Hebner grabbed it from him prompting The Undertaker to turn and pop Hebner with a hard right hand. But Triple H came from behind and lowblowed the champion hard. As Hebner slowly got up, Helmsley locked in and delivered the Pedigree for the 1....2.....3 to win the title!
Match Time: 13:04
J.R.:"The game has done it! He has once again climbed to the top of the TWF mountain and his ex wife is down and looking up at what she once had"!
Lawler:"I can't believe he did that to her! Then, he lowblowed The Undertaker! There were three or four disqualifications in that match"!
J.R.:"Well for the second pay-per-view in a row, Stephanie McMahon's plan to screw her husband has backfired and The Undertaker's obviously blatant attempt to get disqualified to protect his title didn't work thanks to a great job of refereeing by Earl Hebner"!
Lawler:"This is a travesty J.R.! Helmsley does not deserve that title"!
