AS PRIMETIME COMES ON THE AIR, FOOTAGE OF THE HARDCORE REVOLUTION AMBUSHING THE ALLIANCE IN THEIR LOCKER ROOM IS SHOWN. FIREWORKS GO OFF THROUGHOUT THE ARENA. Michael Cole:"Commissioner Piper has declared tonight a night of champions! In addition to Val Venis versus Triple H for the TWF title, three other titles will also be decided tonight"! YUJI MATASAMO's MUSIC HITS AS FOOTAGE OF THE HOLLY's VS. EXTREME JAPAN 2000 IS SHOWN FROM RAW. Jerry Lawler:"Here's the first of those right now"! Cole:"Yuji Matasamo will defend the lightheavyweight title against Crash here, one of the men his group manhandled on RAW". CRASH's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A DECENT REACTION. Lawler:"Extreme Japan is out to prove that they are superior to some of these American superstars". Cole:"They're nothin' but a savage group desperate to put Japan on the TWF map". TWF Lightheavyweight title match..... Challenger... Crash vs. Yuji Matasamo Matasamo clearly had his troubles with the pesky Crash as Crash pounded away on him with hard forearms. Crash kept things in his favor with a hurracanrana and a headscissor takedown. But Matasamo had a plan. He fed Crash a steady diet of kicks to the midsection and lower body until Crash caught up to his quick feet and used a leg whip. Crash then dropkicked Matasamo and went for the cover but just got a 2 count. Crash continued to pour it on until the rest of Extreme Japan came out from the back. As Masa Chono and The Great Muta were being told by referee Jim Corderis to head to the back, Hayabusa tried to catch Crash with a cheap shot when Hardcore Holly, to the roar of the crowd, jumped out f the audience and pulled Hayabusa off the apron and clotheslined him. With the referee's attention still diverted, Hardcore entered the ring and planted Matasamo with the "Alabama Slam" as Crash made the cover. Corderis turned around and counted the 1....2....3 and we had a new champion! Cole:"Crash has done it! Extreme Japan's backfired"! Lawler:"How fair was that?! Hardcore Holly should be suspended for that"! Cole:"Oh come on King, like Extreme Japan didn't have the same plan"! Lawler:"They were there for moral support"! Cole:"Oh please"! Match Time: 7:06 SHORT BREAK THE HARDCORE REVOLUTION THEME HITS WITH THE ROAR OF A MOTORCYCLE SOUND AS HELLS ANGEL WALKS OUT OF THE ENTRANCEWAY. Lawler:"Here we go! This man is part of a group that is on Mr. McMahon's hit list". Cole:"Hardcore rules action coming up momentarily folks but you're right King, earlier today, Vince McMahon declared war against the Hardcore Revolution for their attack on RAW is WAR". MIKE "THE TEXAN" SMITH's MUSIC HITS WITH THE SOUND OF A GUNSHOT AND HE COMES OUT TO A GOOD REACTION. Lawler:"Well I've known Vince for a long time and I know he'll have a plan for this Revolution"! Cole:"Well fans, here comes a guy who's been out of action for a few weeks and what a way to get back to the ring, against this maniac in a hardcore match". Hardcore Rules Hells Angel vs. Mike "The Texan" Smith Two men who are really starting to make names for themselves had a real battle here. Weapons were part of the match from the get go as Hells Angel pounded on The Texan with a trash can lid early. But Smith showed his toughness by fighting out of the predicament and slamming the lid of the trash can in his face. Smith was holding his own against the problem solver of the Revolution until he made a huge mistake. After scoring with a jumping back elbow, Smith picked up a steel chair. But he underestimated the reaction of Hells Angel. As soon as he turned around, Hells Angel came with a running boot and kicked the chair right in his face. Hells Angel made the cover and it was academic from there. Match Time: 7:49 Cole:"What impact! The Texan may be back on injured reserve after that one"! Lawler:"I wouldn't be surprised if he has a broken nose"! Cole:"So a big win for Hells Angel and this Revolution, you can see it King, they're beginning to get stronger and stronger every time you see them". PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL..... BACKSTAGE... Lilian Garcia:"Mr. McMahon, it's being widely reported that you have declared war against the Hardcore Revolution. Is there any truth to this"? Vince McMahon:"Well Lilian, the answer to that is yes. After what they did on RAW, invading our locker room, of course it's a war now. Hell, they invaded the TWF, nobody wanted them here". Lilian Garcia:"Well Vince, how do you plan to stop them"? Vince:"Are you kidding? Don't you realize who I am? My name is Vince McMahon. That's all I should have to say". VINCE WALKS AWAY AND PRIMETIME GOES TO COMMERCIAL..... DOOMSDAY PROMO IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK "NO CHANCE" HITS AS WILLIAM REGAL AND NEMESIS COME OUT TOGETHER. Cole:"We're back here on PrimeTime fans as we get set for an alliance-Revolution battle". Lawler:"The alliance needs to start now in showing these guys that they're messin' with the wrong man". THE HARDCORE REVOLUTION THEME HITS AS THE BRINGERS OF DEATH COME TO THE RING. Cole:"This team is coming off a loss to the Hardy Boyz on RAW in which Stone Cold Steve Austin cost them so Regal and Nemesis better be ready for a fight". Lawler:"Oh they're ready Michael, the alliance is fed up". Nemesis and William Regal vs. The Bringers of Death This contest depicted how bad the fued between these two groups is getting. The Bringers of Death were out to cripple Nemesis and Regal and this was evident when Tex Watson threw Regal into the steel stairs and Regal hit hard with his knee first. Nemesis and Mike Stalker went toe to toe in the ring. Nemesis rocked Stalker back with a right hand and then caught him with a big clothesline. But Nemesis noticed the fight on the floor between Regal and Watson and went outside to help. Regal eventually got back into the ring and hit Stalker with a european uppercut. He then focused on Stalker's knees and locked in several submission holds. But late in the match, Nemesis and Watson got into the action and the ref was losing control. Nemesis tried to hit Stalker with a boot to the face but he moved and Nemesis blasted Regal! Watson then came and threw Nemesis to the floor as Stalker dropped Regal with a reverse impaler like ddt to get the victory for the Bringers of Death. Match Time: 12:09 Cole:"A costly mistake by Nemesis has allowed The Bringers of Death and more importantly the Hardcore Revolution, to get a win over the alliance". Lawler:"Vince has gotta do something before this gets outta control"! SHORT BREAK FROM THE ACTION. THE NEW THEME FOR SHAWN STASIAK AND CHRIS MICHAELS, NOW KNOWN AS THE IMPACT PLAYERS HITS. Cole:"The Bringers of Death have become to assert their selves as a top tier tag team in the TWF which is exactly what this young duo wants to do". Lawler:"I like this team Michael. I feel like they are gonna be a top tier team in the not so distant future". THE ACOLYTES MUSIC HITS AS FAAROOQ AND BRADSHAW COME OUT TO A GREAT POP. Cole:"Well what better way to make some people believers than to beat this team. Easier said than done though". The Impact Players vs. The Acolytes This was a very competitive match which surprised the Acolytes, who were expecting a walk in the park. Bradshaw started things off with Stasiak and overpowered him early. Stasiak and Michaels took several breaks outside the ring to stratagize and they finally got an oppurtunity for some offense when Chris Michaels took out the historically bad knee of Faarooq with a chop block. He then worked diligently on the knee, stomping it, pulling it the wrong way, etc. Michaels then removed the turnbuckle pad in one corner but when he went to ram Faarooq into it, Faarooq blocked it with his foot and elbowed Michaels in the rib cage. Stasiak then came in but Faarooq hit him with a 1 handed spinebuster. Michaels then pulled the ref towards him on the mat as Faarooq tagged in Bradshaw. But referee Chad Patton made Bradshaw go back to his corner cause he didn't see it. Out of frustration, Bradshaw rammed Stasiak into the exposed steel ring in the corner, causeing a cut over his right eye. But Michaels schoolboyed Faarooq and hooked the tights as Patton counted the 3. Match Time: 17:31 Cole:"Oh come on! The referee didn't see the tag or the tights being grabbed! Open your eyes"! Lawler:"The Acolytes should've been disqualified anyway! Bradshaw rammed Stasiak into that steel ring where the turnbuckle is supposed to be"! Cole:"Who removed the pad King? I love your selective memory"! "YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME" HITS AS EDGE's MODIFIED THEME BY ROB ZOMBIE PLAYS. Cole:"Here comes Edge and he is going to respond to his brother Christian's remarks made on RAW". Lawler:"Listen to all these Edge heads"! Edge:"Christian, ya know, it's just like you to get help to acheive your goals, and from a woman no less! But Christian, if you think that Cammie and I are okay with what you guys did to us at Welcome to our Yard, you better think again. You've put me into a new frame of mind, one most of these people have never seen. So Christian, the time will come for you and Faith. You won't know when, you won't know where, but Cammie and I will have a plan. So Christian.... CHRISTIAN's NEW THEME HITS AS HE AND FAITH STEP OUT FROM THE BACK. Christian:"Edge, give it a rest. This crowd sooooo knows who the better man is, I mean, just watch the footage from our match at Welcome to our Yard". CROWD IS BOOING LOUDLY. Faith:"Edge, you can tell Cammie that I'm not hard to find. If she wants to fight, we can fight. I've always kicked her ass in the past anyways". Edge:"Ya know, I'm not gonna sit here and listen to this. Come on Christian, since you're the better man, why don't you come down here and get your ass kicked"! CROWD BEGINS TO CHEER AS CHRISTIAN STARTS DOWN THE RAMP. BUT HE STOMPS AFTER ABOUT 5 FEET AND HAS A BIG SMILE ON HIS FACE. SUDDENLY, A DARK FIGURE LOWERS FROM THE RAFTERS INTO THE RING WITH A BASEBALL BAT AND NAILS EDGE WITH IT IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD. Christian:"Ya see Edge, it is exactly like me to get help. And now I have more. Edge, meet Scorpion, the man who has agreed to help me dispose of you"! CHRISTIAN GETS AN EVIL LOOK ON HIS FACE AND SCORPION JUST LOOKS DOWN AT THE FALLEN EDGE. Cole:"What the hell is going on"?! PRIMETIME GOES TO COMMERCIAL BREAK AND A COMMERCIAL FOR RC COLA IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.... AS PRIMETIME COMES BACK, KANE ARRIVES AT THE ARENA WITH BANDAGED RIBS. Cole:"What is Kane doing here"? Lawler:"Well he's not scheduled to wrestle but he's definitely here for a reason"! THE THEME FOR EXTREME JAPAN 2000 HITS AS MASA CHONO AND THE GREAT MUTA HEAD TO THE RING TO A SHOWER OF BOOS. Cole:"Chono and Muta are gonna take part in a huge tag team match here and still to come tonight fans, Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker of the Alliance will team together to take on Travis Wakeman and The Rock". THE HARDY BOYZ' MUSIC HITS AND MATT AND JEFF COME OUT TO A GREAT REACTION. Lawler:"This will be a high flying matchup and I can't wait to see these two pretty boys get punished by Muta and Chono". The Hardy Boyz vs. The Great Muta and Masa Chono This was an exciting match that the fans were very involved in. Matt and Chono started things off with a great exchange. Matt endured some hard chops and a roundhouse kick to the back of the head. Chono went for a swinging neckbreaker but Matt blocked it and turned it into a backslide to get a 2 count. Matt then hit Chono with a well placed dropkick and both men tagged out. Jeff used 3 consecutive arm drags on Muta followed by a double leg drop to the groin. But as he came bouncing off the ropes, Jeff ran right into a crescent kick. Muta then applied a nerve hold to the neck and shoulder area of Jeff and that really slowed things down. Jeff was in the hold for almost 2 minutes when he worked his way back up and used a sit down jawbreaker to free himself and tag in his older brother. Matt came in and cleaned house as Chono came in as well. Matt hit Muta with a dropkick, sending him over the ropes and to the floor. Jeff came in and the Hardy's used a double hip toss to throw Muta out of the ring. Yuji Matasamo and Hayabusa came out and held Muta and Chono back as referee Tim White counted them out. With all a 4 on 2 advantage, Extreme Japan went back to the ring and attacked the Hardy's. Carney came running out from the back to help the Hardy's but he was sooon taken out by Matasamo and Hayabusa. After a dominant beating, Extreme Japan left the Hardy's and Carney laying in the ring. Match Time: 8:03 Cole:"Extreme Japan is making a mockery of japanese people. Japanese people aren't cowards"! Lawler:"They're not cowards Michael, they're playing head games. Does it look like they're cowards"? Cole:"Well tonight has definitely not been their night"! SHORT BREAK.... THE HARDCORE REVOLUTION THEME HITS AS ZEROEX COMES TO THE RING. Lawler:"Well one things for sure, it has been a good night if you're a Revolution fan". Cole:"Here comes Revolution member ZeroEx and he'll face a relative newcomer here in Danny Bryson". DANNY BRYSON's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A MIXED REACTION. Lawler:"This guy calls himself the real deal but tonight, the Revolution has been the real deal". Cole:"Fans aren't yet sure what to think of this guy but based on his recent actions, I'd say it's safe to say that he is not a Revolution fan". ZeroEx vs. "The Real Deal" Danny Bryson Danny Bryson got a big win over Lord Apocalypse in his debut but he wasn't prepared for this one. ZeroEx looked so good it was scary as he wore Bryson down with his kickboxing/submission style. He battered Bryson with several roundhouse kicks and hard rights and lefts. He continued his assault by locking in various armbars and leg locks. Bryson got back into it with a desparation 1 handed spinebuster. Bryson hit ZeroEx with some hard shots before setting him on the top turnbuckle. But as he climbed to the middle turnbuckle, Bryson was blasted with a knee to the face. ZeroEx then followed that with a frankensteiner off the top rope. After whipping Bryson into the ropes, ZeroEx locked in an abdominal stretch but quickly turned that into an octopus hold. With no escape in sight, Bryson tapped out. Match Time: 7:27 Cole:"How impressive was that? This Revolution is ready for war King". Lawler:"As much as I hate to admit it, you're right. This group is a serious threat to the TWF"! PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL..... TRIPLE H IS WALKING BACKSTAGE WHEN SHAWN MICHAELS WALKS BY. Triple H:"Oh hey Shawn, what's up? I've been lookin' for ya". Shawn Michaels:"What'd ya need"? Triple H:"Well you and I go way back right? Well, I got a bad feelin' about my match tonight. I just gotta know, if somethin' goes down in the next couple of weeks, can I count on ya"? Michaels:"Hey man, you know it. If ya need me, just say so, I got your back". Triple H:"Alright man, I'll catch ya later". COMMERCIAL..... RETURN FROM BREAK..... CHRIS BENOIT's MUSIC HITS Cole:"We're back on PrimeTime fans and we're ready for the Intercontinental title match but what were Triple H and Shawn Michaels talking about backstage"? Lawler:"I don't know what Triple H is so paranoid about. He says he wants to be a fighting champion, well tonight he's got that oppurtunity". RHYNO's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES TO THE RING WITH THE IC TITLE BEING BOOED LOUDLY. Cole:"Well here is the man that took the Intercontinental title from Kane at Welcome to our Yard and he's got another tough opponent in front of him tonight". TWF Intercontinental Title Match.... Challenger... Chris Benoit vs. Rhyno This was a phenomenal showing by both men. Rhyno overpowered Benoit for much of the match, using a powerslam, sidewalk slam and a hard spinebuster to get near falls. But after sidestepping the Gore, Benoit caught Rhyno with a german suplex and followed that with his diving headbutt off the top rope. As Benoit made his throat slash gesture signaling the end, Albert came running down the aisle. Benoit noticed Albert and attacked him as he got on the apron. Meanwhile, Rhyno slipped out of the ring, grabbed his belt and walked up the ramp backwards, watching the ongoing brawl between Albert and Benoit. Suddenly, Kane emerged from the back behind Rhyno. Rhyno turned around as Kane slapped a hand around his throat and delivered a bone crunching chokeslam on the ramp. Kane just stood over Rhyno as Benoit clotheslined Albert out of the ring and his music hit. Cole:"Kane has decimated the Intercontinental champion and dare I say if it weren't for Albert, we'd have a new Intercontinental champion". Lawler:"You don't know that Michael, obviously Benoit has some unresolved issues with Albert". Cole:"As does Rhyno with Kane"! FOOTAGE OF JORDAN ROCKWELL COSTING DREW BLOOD HIS MATCH AGAINST TAZZ ON RAW BY HITTING HIM WITH A METAL PIPE IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD IS SHOWN AS DREW BLOOD's MUSIC HITS AND HE AND THE LEVIATHAN APPEAR TOGETHER. Lawler:"Here comes a team I wouldn't wanna face". Cole:"As the ongoing fued between Drew Blood and Jordan Rockwell continues, both men will be on opposing sides in this tag match here". "THE KINGS" BY RUN DMC HITS AS JORDAN ROCKWELL AND SCOTTY 2 HOTTY APPEAR TO A GOOD REACTION. THEY ARE FLANKED BY LITA. Lawler:"The only reason their fued is ongoing is because Rockwell can't admit that Drew Blood's the better man". Cole:"Well, that remains to be seen in the mind of many King". Drew Blood and The Leviathan vs. Jordan Rockwell and Scotty 2 Hotty This was an exciting tag match as Drew Blood and Scotty started things off. Tags were made after neither man could gain an advantage and the monster Leviathan began to pound away on the back of Rockwell. Leviathan used a powerslam, a sidewalk slam and a gorilla press to weaken Rockwell but after ducking a clothesline, Rockwell made a blind tag to Scotty who came off the top turnbuckle with a missile dropkick on Leviathan. Leviathan tagged in Drew Blood and he and Scotty went at it as Rockwell and Leviathan traded shots outside on the floor. Inside the ring, Drew Blood countered a russian leg sweep with the "Bloodbath" to get the 1-2-3. Match Time: 10:46 But after the match, with Leviathan laid out from a chair shot, Scotty held up Drew Blood as Rockwell cracked him with a chair in the head. Scotty held Blood down on the announce table as Rockwell went to the top turnbuckle and leaped off with a big splash, landing on Drew Blood and crashing through the table! Cole:"Oh my god, look at the destruction! They may both be hurt"! Lawler:"What is Rockwell thinking"?! Cole:"Rockwell has risked bodily harm here and this situation between these two is gonna get out of control"! INTERMISSION.... "ENTER SANDMAN" BY METALLICA HITS AS MADDOGG AND KING KILLER COME OUT TOGETHER. Lawler:"This isn't fair! These two have had to prepare for a match where they only know one of their opponents"! "WHATEVER" BY GODSMACK HITS AS BAHAMUT COMES OUT. Cole:"Bahamut was given the oppurtunity to select any partner he wanted for this one by Commissioner Piper due to the way King Killer beat him on RAW". Bahamut: "Hey seeing as I made fun of you Ass Clowns so thoroughly on Raw...I think I will cut this one short....(Takes A deep breath)
Maddog Likes It In The Ass,King KillerD elivers For Him....blah blah blah..ETC
(BAHAMUT Begins walking down the Ramp)
Oh, and do you hear a train coming"?
"Falling Away From Me" by Korn Hits as The TWF Harcore champion Strife comes out. Lawler:"No way, it can't be! These two are enemies"! Cole:"Strife is gonna team with Bahamut here and what a hurdle the Confederation is gonna have to clear to retain the titles". TWF Tag Team Title Match.... Challengers... Bahamut and Strife vs. Maddogg and King Killer With a 30 minute championship time limit, this one almost went the distance. Several times throughout the match, Bahamut and Strife had the titles won but either Maddogg or King Killer would make the save. Bahamut and Strife showed some great continuity as they hit King Killer with a double boot to the face and Maddogg fell victim to a double flapjack. But late in the match, while on the outside of the ring, King Killer was seen loading his elbow pad with a foreign object. Strife clotheslined Maddogg over the top rope and followed him out. Bahamut was all over King Killer when he used a basic waist lock and King Killer used a back elbow with the pad he put something into and Bahamut fell like a sack of potatoes. With Strife occupied outside of the ring, King Killer dropped Bahamut with the "Rise of the South" to win it. Match Time: 23:33 Cole:"What did King Killer have in that elbow pad"? Lawler:"Who cares, the Confederation are still the champs"! Cole:"Piper needs to do something about this because we were obviously going to have new tag team champions tonight"! PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL..... TRAVIS WAKEMAN IS LOOSENING UP IN HIS DRESSING ROOM WHEN THE ROCK WALKS IN. Wakeman:"Can I help you"? The Rock:"Yeah, as a matter of fact you can. You can help The Rock against the Alliance in our match tonight. Now The Rock wants to go out there and make a statement by whoopin' some ass. So The Rock wants you to be on the same page". Wakeman:"Yeah, no problem, see ya out there". COMMERCIAL FOR 1-800-COLLECT RETURN FROM BREAK..... THE SOUND OF A BELL TOLLING IS HEARD AS THE LIGHTS GO OUT AND THE UNDERTAKER SLOWLY MAKES HIS WAY DOWN THE AISLE. Cole:"We're back folks and we're ready for a huge tag team match as you take a look at The Undertaker's very eerie entrance". Lawler:"This man here is the key to the Alliance. He is the one that no one in the Revolution can stop"! "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO SOME VERY LOUD BOOS. Cole:"I'd love to know how Vince got him to join the Alliance but here is the former TWF champion, a man who wants his title back"! TRAVIS WAKEMAN's THEME BY WESTSIDE CONNECTION HITS AS HE AND TRISH COME DOWN THE RAMP. Lawler:"I don't think this guy can co-exist with The Rock. He says he could but he didn't mean it". "IF YA SMEELLLL, WHAT THE ROCK, IS COOKIN'" HITS AS THE ROCK COMES OUT TO BY FAR THE BIGGEST OVATION ALL NIGHT. Cole:"That remains to be seen King. I personally think that this is a common enemy for Wakeman and The Rock and they can put any differences behind them for this match"! The Undertaker and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs. Travis Wakeman and The Rock Both The Rock and Wakeman had trouble with The Undertaker, not even getting him off his feet. Undertaker hit The Rock with a boot to the face and a flying clothesline and he took Wakeman out with a big chokeslam. Austin came in and stomped away on Wakeman's chest. The Undertaker and Austin did a great job of cutting the ring off and not allowing Wakeman to get the tag as they punished him. But after rolling out of the way of an on coming elbow from the middle turnbuckle by Austin, Wakeman rolled over and made the tag to The Rock as the crowd went wild. The Rock hit Austin with several right hands followed by a nice ddt. The Rock used his spinebuster and was ready for the "People's Elbow". He tossed his elbow pad into the crowd and bounced off one set of ropes, but when he tried to go off the other side, The Undertaker used a low bridge with the ropes and The Rock fell to the floor. Frustrated, The Rock grabbed a steel chair and cracked The Undertaker over the head with it, causing a DQ but seemingly having no effect on the deadman. Wakeman did not seem pleased as he looked at The Rock as if to say "What are you thinking"? Match Time: 9:54 But suddenly, the entire Hardcore Revolution came out with various weapons and attacked Austin and the Undertaker. Nemesis and William Regal came running out to help but to no avail. After the Revolution cleared the ring, Vince McMahon came out. Vince:"Guys, don't worry about them, come back. There will be a time when the sides are even". AS THE REVOLUTION WENT BACKSTAGE, WALLY WILLSON HAD A HUGE GRIN ON HIS FACE. Cole:"What does Mr. McMahon mean by that"? Lawler:"Didn't I say earlier that Vince would have a plan"? SHORT BREAK.... VAL VENIS' MUSIC HITS Cole:"Here we go fans, the TWF title is gonna be on the line here and what an oppurtunity for this guy, a former TWF champion"! "THE GAME" BY MOTORHEAD HITS AS TRIPLE H COMES OUT WITH THE TWF TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST. Lawler:"Venis will have to pull out all the stops to beat the game though". TWF Title Match Challenger... Val Venis vs. Triple H This was a pretty even match as these two great athletes went at it. Venis used a russian leg sweep followed by a nice kneedrop but Triple H came back with a nice powerslam and a vicious clothesline. Venis used a running knee on Triple H but he tried a suplex and Triple H blocked it and came up with a suplex of his own. Later in the match, Val recovered from a nice facebuster to the knee and used a nice stun gun manuever on the top rope. He made the cover but Triple H kicked out at 2. Helmsley was slowin' way down as Venis was in good shape. Venis then hung Triple H over the middle rope and choked him 4 straight times, having to break the hold before the referee could get to a 5 count. But referee Mike Chioda told Venis to watch it and an argument ensued between the two. Out from the back came Vince McMahon. Triple H was hung over the ropes still and Vince sprayed some sort of substance in Helmsley's eyes, perhaps mace. Triple H was in pain and could not see and he walked right into a fisherman suplex by Venis as Chioda made the 3 count. Match Time: 9:12 Cole:"What the hell was that? Why did Vince help Val"? AS VENIS WAS AWARDED THE TITLE, HE LOOKED VERY CONFUSED AS HE SAW VINCE McMAHON. Lawler:"Well, we all know Vince has a strong disliking for Triple H, did ya think of that"? Cole:"Whatever the case may be, we have a new TWF champion and Triple H has been screwed"! OFF AIR....
