J.R.:"It's the last stop before Evil Intentions and what a wild night it's gonna be"! Paul Heyman:"You got that right J.R., but right now, we're about to be graced by the man who runs the show around here". J.R.:"Well Mick Foley's gonna try to change that". Vince:"Well, well, well, another trip to the land of ignorance, Poughkeepsie. (FANS LOUDLY BOO) With Evil Intentions just days away, my group is out to prove just how much power we have. Kurt Angle and William Regal are destined to be tag team champions. My son in- law Triple H is gonna mangle Chris Benoit". J.R.:"This crowd is all over Mr. McMahon". Vince:"SHUT UP!! My beautiful daughter Stephanie is gonna tear that bitch Trish apart and last but certainly not least, Travis Wakeman and Mick Foley, you are gonna go through hell! Ya see Mick, you've set it up perfectly, because "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and I will do anything to rid you from the TWF! I will risk all my power in this company because I know we can't be stopped! Foley, you mentioned that if you win, you'll have the power to bring back any TWF superstar no matter how I feel about them. Well that's fine cause in this match, you and Wakeman have no chance in hell! Oh, and speaking of Wakeman, since I still have the power to order matches here in the TWF, Travis Wakeman is gonna have a preparation match tonight"! J.R.:"A preparation match"? Vince:"Oh yeah, tonight in this very ring, Travis Wakeman is gonna face Rhyno! And one other thing, I'm the guest referee! How's that for preparation Mick"? VINCE TOSSES THE MIC DOWN AS HE AND THE ALLIANCE LEAVE. Heyman:"Travis Wakeman is gonna face Rhyno? With Vince as the ref"? J.R.:"That's exactly why Wakeman and Foley need to win that match. To put an end to all this crap"! THE ANGEL OF DEATH's MUSIC HITS. Heyman:"We're also gonna see Triple H and Electric Coma of the alliance take on Chris Benoit and Shawn Michaels along with Trish Stratus against Nurse Betty"! J.R.:"Well here comes the man who'll face Harper Bane at Evil Intentions and he's got his trusty wheel trim with him". "FALLING AWAY FROM ME" BY KORN HITS AS STRIFE APPEARS. Heyman:"Well this will be one hell of a test for both men here".
AOD was physically outmatched here but he used a nice aggressive gameplan. He took away Strife's vertical base early and used simple, yet effective moves. AOD went for a suplex but the stronger Strife blocked it and countered with a suplex of his own. Strife was in control as Harper Bane made his way down the aisle. Suddenly Bane threw a handful of Nails at AOD but AOD quickly ducked and the nails struck Strife, cutting him in several places. AOD quickly covered him for the victory.
Match Time: 4:21
J.R.:"Wow, that's gotta be considered an upset. Wait a minute, Harper Bane's got a microphone".
Bane:"Hey Angel, last week when you poured that bag of Nails on me from high above on PrimeTime, it gave me an idea. At Evil Intentions, you and me are gonna settle this in a Bed of Nails match! First man to throw his opponent into a bed of nails wins"!
J.R.:"They're gonna do what"?
Heyman:"That's psychotic! We never even did that in ECW"!
AOD WALKS OFF WITH A SMILE ON HIS FACE INDICATING HE ACCEPTS THE MATCH.
EDGE AND CHRISTIAN's MUSIC HITS
J.R:"Well here comes a couple of genuine jackasses"!
Heyman:"Why can't you just respect these guys J.R.? I'm sick of the comments you make about them!
AHMED WALKER's MUSIC HITS; HE COMES OUT WITH TORRIE WILSON.
Here comes a man who calls himself the Original Bad Boy, what makes him so special"?
J.R.:"He's an exceptional athlete. Don't get me wrong, Edge and Christian are great wrestlers, I just can't stand their pompous attitudes".
This was a great match which displayed 2 of the future stars of the TWF. After a great series in the ring, Edge caught Walker with the "Downward Spiral" out of nowhere but Walker kicked out at 2! Christian then jumped on the apron complaining of a slow count as Walker began to get back into it. He hit Edge with a terrific succession of moves which culminated in a cobra clutch german suplex. Referee Mike Kiotta counted 1...2..., but Edge somehow got a shoulder up. The fight continued as Christian began to chase Torrie Wilson around the ring. This brought out Billy Kidman and he and Christian went at it. Distracted, Walker got dropkicked in the back of the head. Edge then followed that with a flying knee drop off the top rope but Walker again kicked out. As Kiotta tried to sort out the madness, Christian cracked Walker in the head with a steel chair and Edge put him away with an electric chair drop.
Match Time: 6:48
J.R.:"That's what makes them jackasses Paul"!
Heyman:"Bottom line is Edge got the victory J.R."!
MADDOGG's MUSIC HITS AS A CLIP OF TEAM GEORGIA CONFRONTING THE HARDCORE PATRIOT ON PRIMETIME IS SHOWN.
J.R.:"Maddogg is coming out here alone folks but I'm not sure what for".
Heyman:"He's got a mic".
Maddogg:"Well it seems that upper management has found a way to get rid of my boys so there is no more Team Georgia. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna forget this punk the Hardcore Patriot. This fool thinks he can just come in here and get into my business? Well I don't think you know who the fuck you're messin' with! But if you got any balls at all, you'll come out here so I can whip your ass"!
J.R.:"A challenge has been laid down"!
THE HARDCORE PATRIOT's MUSIC HITS AND HE RAN TO THE RING AND HE AND MADDOGG SQUARED OFF. THE PATRIOT WAS POUNDING MADDOGG WHEN BULL BUCHANAN CAME FROM THE BACK AND ATTACKED THE PATRIOT FROM BEHIND. HE AND MADDOGG BEAT THE HECK OUT OF THE PATRIOT BEFORE LEAVING HIM LAYING IN THE RING.
J.R.:"What the hell is this"?
Heyman:"Maddogg's already found a new ally"!
J.R.:"The Patriot's been decimated"!

Heyman:"Oh tough choice Shawn"! COMMERCIAL..... - A COMMERCIAL FOR THE NEW "DIVA ISLAND" VIDEO IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.....BACKSTAGE JORDAN ROCKWELL CONFRONTS STASIAK Rockwell:"Hey man, what's up with you lately? First you don't show up for our tag match on PrimeTime and now you don't wanna come up for Chuck's match". Stasiak:"Don't start with me Jordan. You didn't even put me in the match at Evil Intentions". Rockwell:"Oh, so that's what this is about". Miss Hancock:"That's not what this is about Jordan". Rockwell:"Look bud, I know it's nice to get laid but you don't turn your back on your friends". Stasiak:"I really don't need this right now Jordan". Rockwell:"Chuck's got a big match tonight. You can come out there but don't bring that bitch with you"! ROCKWELL WALKS AWAY. Stasiak:"We'll see who the bitch is". "I AM" BY EMINEM HITS AS WELL DUNN COMES OUT. Heyman:"Looks like there are problems in the New Breed". J.R.:"Well that's a possibility but right now we've got Well Dunn of the Reluctance of Society ready to face the Dudleys and before you say it Paul, everybody knows the Dudleys are like twenty seven time ECW tag team champs". THE DUDLEY BOYZ MUSIC HITS WITH A BOMB DROPPING SOUND. Heyman:"Actually eight time J.R. and don't get smart with me".
This was a good tag team match. Well Dunn surprised many by outwrestling The Dudleys. They isolated themselves against D-Von in the ring and made smart decisions as well as frequent tags. D-Von had taken a beating for 8 minutes when Steve Well and Johnny Dunn both whipped him to the ropes. With everything he had left, D-Von exploded off the ropes with a double clothesline. With the crowd cheering him on, D-Von made the tag. Buh Buh came in and went to work. After clotheslining Steve Well out of the ring, he bodyslammed Johnny Dunn. D-Von came flying off the top rope with a headbutt to the groin as the crowd screamed Whassup!!! Then Steve Well charged in with a clothesline but D-Von ducked, picked him up as Buh Buh bounced off the ropes and they dropped him with the "Dudley Death Drop" to win it. As The Dudleys celebrated, Test came out and nailed them both with a steel chair. The beating was on as The Reluctance handed it to the Dudleys.
Match Time: 11:17
JERRY LYNN's MUSIC HITS.

FLAMES SLOWLY BEGIN TI RISE ON THE ENTRANCE RAMP AS THE GATES OF HELL's MUSIC HITS AND THE LEVIATHAN COMES OUT WITH A CHAIN AROUND HIS NECK.
Heyman:"Well I have all the respect in the world for Jerry Lynn but he's facing a real maniac here".
J.R.:"Conspicuos by his absence is Paul Bearer".
Leviathan was too much for Lynn as he pummelled him senseless. After a sidewalk slam and a huge clothesline, Leviathan had Lynn in a torcher rack when The Big Show came out. Show entered the ring and headbutted Leviathan, causing a DQ. The 2 behemoths tore into each other and fought all the way backstage as camera crews followed. Leviathan found a metal object and cracked it over Big Show's head. He then took his chain and began to beat The Big Show with it! After several officials showed up, Leviathan slowly walked away. Back in the ring, Lynn still lay in the ring from the beating he took when Yuji Matasamo came out, picked Lynn up and delivered the skewer ddt for good measure.
J.R.:"What the hell is this"?
Heyman:"Matasamo is trying to ensure that Lynn isn't one hundred percent at Evil Intentions"!
J.R.:"What kind of champion is that"?
Heyman:"One who wants to remain champ".
"THE GAME" BY MOTORHEAD HITS AS TRIPLE H COMES OUT WITH STEPHANIE
J.R.:"What a huge match this is gonna be".
Heyman:"These four men will be involved in two seperate blockbuster matches at Evil Intentions J.R. but they're gonna start the war tonight".
This match had the fans on the edge of their seats as 4 superior athletes went at it. Triple H andComa double teamed HBK in the early goings. There was no love loss between HBK and Triple H as the two had a great series. But Triple H lowblowed Michaels as Benoit tried to help his partner but was held back by referee Tim White. Electric Coma then caught Micheals with his "Coma Kick" but HBK got his foot on the bottom rope at 2! After both men clotheslined each other, dual tags were made. Benoit came in and took on both men as the crowd went wild. Then, Benoit slapped the Crossface on Coma and had him tappin' out but White informed Benoit that he was not the legal man in the match. On the other side of the ring, a masked man jumped out of the crowd and caught Michaels with a superkick, reminiscent of his "Sweet Chin Music". Triple H then delivered the Pedigree and covered Michaels as White counted the 1-2-3!
Match Time: 12:04
J.R.:"Come on Tim White! HBK wasn't the legal man! This is a terrible miscarriage of justice"!
Heyman:"But who attacked Michaels J.R."?
J.R.:"I don't know, he had a mask on for god sake"!
PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL....BACKSTAGE... CAMERAS SHOW TERRI GOLD LAYING ON THE FLOOR BACKSTAGE AND BEING WHIPPED BY XSTASY BEFORE OFFICIALS CAN STOP HER. J.R.:"The Women's champion has been beaten to a pulp"! COMMERCIAL.... - A COMMERCIAL FOR FRAM OIL FILTERS IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.... AS RAW RETURNS, PAPA SHANGO IS MAKING HIS WAY DOWN THE AISLE. J.R.:"The dangerous Papa Shango is on his way to the ring folks and without Paul Bearer as well". Heyman:"Well this man had a major hand in putting Kane's brother out of action and now he's gotta face him".
Kane came into this match with an indestructible vengeance. Shango hit him with hard right hands as soon as he entered the ring to gain a quick advantage but they seemed to have no effect. Kane caught Shango with a boot to the face as he came off the ropes and that marked the beginning of the end. Kane hit a diving lariat off the top rope and followed that with a ring rockin' chokeslam. Shango was at Kane's mercy as he made the throat slash gesture. The monster Kane then scooped Shango up and drilled him with the Tombstone to end it.
Match Time: 4:07
J.R.:"Kane has destroyed Papa Shango! You don't mess with a man's family Paul"!
Heyman:"You're absolutely right J.R., this was a dominating performance by Kane but remember, his brother is no longer around! Kane better keep a close eye over his shoulder"!
THE ACOLTYES MUSIC HITS.
J.R.:"The tag team champions are comin' out here Paul as we're about to get a preview of the tag team title match at Evil Intentions".
KURT ANGLE's MUSIC HITS
Like Mr.McMahon said earlier, this man and William Regal are destined to win the titles".
Angle put on a great display against a tough opponent here. Angle hit Faarooq with a package of suplexes including a superplex off the top rope. After catching Faarooq with a boot as he ran in to the corner, Angle charged him but got planted with a powerslam. This got Faarooq back into it when William Regal made his way out. He acted like an innocent spectator but after Angle whipped Faarooq to the ropes, Regal grabbed his foot. Faarooq instinctively turned around and attempted to grab Regal when Angle snuck up from behind and put him away with the "Olympic Slam". Angle and Regal then began to stomp away on Faarooq when Bradshaw came out. Angle noticed him and got out of the ring but Regal wasn't so fortunate as Bradshaw smashed him with the "Clothesline from Hell" as the crowd erupted.
Match Time: 5:38
Heyman:"The Acolytes are sore losers! That was ridiculous"!
J.R.:"Oh Paul gimme a break! Angle didn't win that one alone and you know it"!

J.R.:"They are one of the top young groups Paul but according to a recent poll taken at TWF.com, this group is the future of the company".
Albert was all business as he hammered away on Palumbo early. But Palumbo turned the match around as he muscled Albert up for a spinebuster. Suddenly, Shawn Stasiak and Miss Hancock came out. Jordan Rockwell went and got in his face as an argument ensued. Suddenly, X-Pac and Justin Credible came over and began to unload on Rockwell and Stasiak. In the ring, with the ref distracted, Palumbo hit Albert with his face first inverted russian leg sweep as Shawn O'haire then came off the top rope with the "Shawnton Bomb". Referee Teddy Long turned around and made the 3 count as Palumbo beat Albert.
Match Time: 6:08
J.R.:"What an upset! Palumbo has pinned Albert"!
Heyman:"That match at Evil Intentions is gonna be a war fans. Think of all the possibilities, it could come down to Jessica Lopez against the entire X-Factor team"!
J.R.:"Let's hope we don't see that".

Challenger... Raven vs. Nuke
Raven quickly unloaded his shopping cart into the ring as there were weapons everywhere. Nuke hit Raven over the head with a trash can lid but Raven recovered and rammed into him with the shopping cart and blasted him over the head with a parking sign. After a brutal fight, Raven caught him with his "Raven Effect" ddt on a stop sign. A new champion was about to be crowned when The Brutile Bulldog came out with a kendo stick and lashed Raven across the back with it. Nails then jumped out of the crowd and smashed Nuke over the head with a cinder block. Kane and Strife then came running out as the fight raged on. Blood was all over the canvas as the 6 men stopped at nothing to hurt each other. The men fought all the way into the back before finally being seperated by a hord of officials.
Heyman:"My god, they're tryin' to kill each other"!
J.R.:"Thank god it was stopped"!
Heyman:"Things are gettin' crazy around here J.R."!
J.R.:"You shouldn't mind Paul, you're so used to everything being extreme and all"!
SIRENS BLARE OVER THE LOUDSPEAKERS AS NURSE BETTY COMES OUT.
Heyman:"Here comes that bombshell valet of Electric Coma and she'll face that hussy Trish".
J.R.:"Does this woman have any wrestling ability? It should however be a good warm up for Trish's big match at Evil Intentions".
This was definitely no ordinary cat fight as both women proved their in ring abilities, although Trish seemed to have more. After some rolling around in the ring, the fight carried out of the ring where Trish was thrown into the ring steps by Nurse Betty as a nasty fight ensued on the floor. Trish's lower back seemed to be bothering her but she hung tough. She got Betty in a headlock and delivered her jumping bulldog. It seemed like it was all over when Chyna suddenly appeared in the entranceway. Trish noticed Chyna and it distracted her just long enough for Nurse Betty to hit her with a german suplex to win it.
Match Time: 4:14
CHYNA GOT A HUGE GRIN OH HER FACE AS STEPHANIE CAME RUNNING PAST HER. STEPH ENTERED THE RING, STRADDLED TRISH AND BEGAN TO SLAP HER ACROSS THE FACE REPEATEDLY.
AFTER THAT, STEPH DROVE HER HEAD INTO THE MAT WITH A DDT.
J.R.:"I know we're in New York but this is a mugging! Come on"!

J.R.:"Well what the hell is Chyna doin'"?

Heyman:"This is gonna decide who faces Drew Blood at Evil Intentions for the European title".
"WHATEVER" BY GODSMACK HITS AS BAHAMUT COMES OUT.
J.R.:"Well these two men have a history together. Do you have a preference as to who to face Drew Blood"?
DREW BLOOD JUST STARES AT J.R. AND SAYS NOTHING.
Heyman:"I don't think he cares J.R.">
Bahamut vs. Mike Norton
As soon as the bell rang, the heated rivalry between these two was reborn as they traded shots. Bahamut got the first advantage after a powerslam but when he went for the "Wings of Bahamut"< Norton got his knees up in hi gut. The match then went out to the floor as Norton laid Bahamut on the announce table. Norton climbed the turnbuckle and was all set to fly.
J.R.:"Don't do it Norton, you'll regret it the rest of your life"!
But Norton launched himself anyway, crashing through the announce table and hitting both Bahamut and Drew Blood. An angry Drew Blood recovered and hit Norton with a right hand. A brawl started between the 3 men and finally had to be stopped by security. Bahamut had blood pouring from his mouth and Norton had a scraped up elbow.
Heyman:"It's action like we're seeing tonight that seperates us from organizations like WCW 2"!

THE 2 BEGIN TO GO AT IT WHEN THE ROCK THROWS VENIS STRAIGHT INTO A STALL. HE THEN STUCK HIS HEAD IN A TOILET AND FLUSHED IT. Rock:"Piece of crap"! J.R.:"Oh my gosh! Venis just got flushed"!

RHYNO's MUSIC HITS AS HE COMES OUT WITH STEVE CORINO J.R.:"My ass he will! Well fans, because of some of the happenings tonight, four more matches have been signed for Evil Intentions. Drew Blood will defend the European title against both Bahamut and Mike Norton in a triple threat match. There will be a six pack chaos match for the Hardcore title between Raven, The Brutile Bulldog, Nails, Strife, Kane and Nuke. And due to the whipping attack earlier, Terri Gold has demanded to face Xstasy with the Women's title on the line". Heyman:"That may be a mistake". TRAVIS WAKEMAN's MUSIC BY WESTSIDE CONNECTION HITS AS HE AND TRISH COME OUT TO A HUGE FIREWORK DISPLAY. HE RAISES BOTH ARMS AS THE CROWD COMES TO THEIR FEET. Heyman:"The odds are not in Wakeman's favor. Not only is Vince the ref, but he's gotta face the last man to hold the ECW title, the manbeast Rhyno"! J.R.:"Well get this Paul, The Dudleys have challenged Test and Well Dunn to a six man tag team table match at Evil Intentions"! Paul:"What? There's only two of them"!
Special Referee: Vince McMahon
This was an intense battle which went all over the place. Rhyno was fired up early as he pounded Wakeman, bringing a smile to Vince's face. But Vince allowed blatant choke holds and made superfast counts in pinning situations for Rhyno. So Wakeman decided to take the fight outside. After whipping Rhyno into the barracade, Wakeman moved the mats outside, exposing the concrete floor. Wakeman then suplexed Rhyno onto it as Vince threatened to DQ him. Wakeman then grabbed Vince by the throat as Stone Cold came out. Wakeman tossed Vince aside and went after Austin, knocking him right out of the ring. But as soon as Wakeman turned around, Steve Corino nailed him with a superkick. Rhyno got back into the ring and waited patiently for Wakeman to get up. As soon as he did, Rhyno smashed him with the "Gore" as Vince made the fastest 3 count ever. Austin then came back in and hit Wakeman with the Stunner before setting his sights on Trish. Trish tried to squirm away but Vince grabbed her by the hair and tossed her to Austin. Suddenly, Mick Foley came running out. He hit Vince with a hard right hand. Austin let go of Trish but Foley kicked him in the gut and delivered the double arm ddt as the crowd went crazy.
Heyman:"What is Foley thinking"?
J.R.:"He's being a man and stopping this crap"!
Heyman:"Well Rhyno just got a huge win but that's nothin' compared to what Austin and Vince are gonna do at the pay-per-view"!
J.R.:"That remains to be seen Paul but for the sake of this company, I'm gonna say it, I'm pullin' for Wakeman and Foley"!
FOLEY AND WAKEMAN STAND TOGETHER IN THE RING AS AUSTIN AND VINCE STAND IN THE AISLE, AUSTIN RAISING THE TWF TITLE.
