00:05:40It's been a hell of a week.
00:05:41It's been a hell of a week.
00:05:43Tonight, I take the first step in regaining control of my own company.
00:05:48I know that I will certainly be competitive, no doubt.
00:05:54I'll be a competitive SOB as far as my company is concerned.
00:05:59But along the way in the future, I'm going to stop, smell the roses,
00:06:04and I'm going to thank those individuals who have helped me become the success that I am.
00:06:11And I'm going to start, by the way, with thanking tonight not only the world's most dangerous man,
00:06:17but certainly a man who is at least that loyal.
00:06:21I'd like to thank Ken Shamrock for helping Stephanie.
00:06:26I'd like to thank as well.
00:06:29I'd like to thank the Big Show.
00:06:33I'd like to thank him and his heart that's every bit as big as his 500-pound body,
00:06:39again for coming to the aid of Stephanie.
00:06:43And most especially, I would like to thank Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:06:51Whoa!
00:06:53You ever think you'd hear that?
00:06:55Never.
00:06:58I would also like to personally thank Ken Shamrock, the Big Show,
00:07:07and most importantly, Stone Cold Steve Austin
00:07:12for helping me with The Undertaker on Monday night.
00:07:19I was taken against my will,
00:07:25stripped of my clothes,
00:07:29and dressed in a black gown for an unholy wedding.
00:07:37And I have never felt so powerless and violated in all my life.
00:07:45The Undertaker, he kept touching me.
00:07:50And whispering in my ears that I was his.
00:07:55And there was nothing I could do about it.
00:07:59So Steve, I'd just like to say,
00:08:03from the bottom of my heart and my soul,
00:08:07for whatever reason you did it,
00:08:10thank you.
00:08:12I will never forget what you did for me.
00:08:15I will never forget what you did for me.
00:08:18And Undertaker, I hope you burn in hell.
00:08:26Strong words!
00:08:29Imagine what Stephanie McMahon had been through.
00:08:31So Stone Cold, I hope you can hear me,
00:08:33because tonight, I'd like to make a promise.
00:08:37I'd like to make a promise to you, Stone Cold.
00:08:41I like it.
00:08:44Uh-oh.
00:08:47Family trouble brewing.
00:08:50That's Shane McMahon, co-owner of the WWF and Vince's only son.
00:08:57And he's on the stage with his streamlined corporation.
00:09:01And Jim, it was just a few weeks ago that Shane McMahon rebuked his father,
00:09:05humiliated Vince,
00:09:07seizing control of the corporation,
00:09:09while Vince was distracted by the Undertaker's threats to Stephanie.
00:09:13Shane McMahon has had it the way he's wanted it his entire life.
00:09:16He's had everything handed to him.
00:09:17The only thing he's ever taken on his own was his own father's company,
00:09:21and it looks like Vince wants that company back.
00:09:26Shane McMahon on a serious power trip in recent weeks.
00:09:32Triple H, Chyna, The Boss Man,
00:09:35and the Mean Street Posse here to be Shane McMahon's backup, Michael.
00:09:39Yeah, the Mean Street Posse.
00:09:41Punks from Greenwich, Connecticut who grew up with Shane McMahon.
00:09:46Now at his side every step of the way.
00:09:53And the chance once reserved for Vince McMahon
00:09:56now being thrown the way of his son Shane.
00:10:01First of all, what are you doing here?
00:10:04You know what? Never mind. I don't even want to hear it.
00:10:07I have to address one thing.
00:10:09Last Monday night, when The Undertaker abducted Stephanie,
00:10:14do you not think that myself or the entire corporation
00:10:18would have been there for my own flesh and blood,
00:10:21my sister, if something bad were to have happened?
00:10:24Do you not think I would have been there for you?
00:10:26What type of human being do you think I am?
00:10:30What kind of a human being do I think you are, Shane?
00:10:35I think that...
00:10:36Shut your mouth. That's enough out of you.
00:10:38I don't even want to hear it anymore.
00:10:41Total disrespect yet again.
00:10:47All of a sudden, Vince McMahon is out here apologizing
00:10:50for how you used to run business.
00:10:52What happened to the most ruthless tycoon in the history of the world?
00:10:56You all of a sudden grew a conscience overnight?
00:10:59And then it makes me sick to my stomach.
00:11:01I almost regurgitated in the back.
00:11:03You're out here thanking Stone Cold Steve Austin for saving
00:11:07your precious little daughter Stephanie,
00:11:10daddy's little girl.
00:11:13What a steal of a line from Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:11:16You know what? As it relates to business,
00:11:18I don't give a rat's ass about daddy's little girl.
00:11:21I don't give a rat's ass about Stone Cold,
00:11:24and I don't give a rat's ass about you.
00:11:27What the hell has gotten into Shane?
00:11:29Power!
00:11:35Then maybe you should give a rat's ass about this.
00:11:37Whoa, whoa. I got this. Yo, yo, yo, yo.
00:11:39Back it up. Back it up. Hold on.
00:11:41Back it up, Hunter. I got this one.
00:11:43Just chill out for one second.
00:11:47Better step back.
00:11:48Matter of fact, you know what?
00:11:50You better get your attitude out of my face, Vince,
00:11:53before I slap the wrinkles out of yours.
00:11:57Come on.
00:11:59A son talking to a father like that.
00:12:02Now you may leave and take your precious little daughter with you.
00:12:06Get to stepping. This is my show.
00:12:08I'm running things here.
00:12:11See ya.
00:12:14You know, one day, Shane, you may be a man.
00:12:17Tonight, you're acting like a petulant little boy.
00:12:22Well, let Wonder Boy show you to the door.
00:12:25That's it. Corporation, escort them out.
00:12:27There you go. There it is.
00:12:31Let's give Vince and Stephanie, Daddy's little girl, a big hand.
00:12:35Thank you very much for coming here this evening.
00:12:38Sayonara.
00:12:40You know what, Vince? You know what?
00:12:42Daddy's little girl, Steph?
00:12:44That's right. Go back, get in your limo.
00:12:46You can be home in about 35 minutes.
00:12:48And you can watch the rest of SmackDown on television.
00:12:52See you later. So sad.
00:12:54Too bad. Bye-bye.
00:12:57Adios. Sayonara.
00:13:01If Stephanie hadn't been there, I think things may have been different.
00:13:05Vince staying above it all.
00:13:08Warning his son he'll get his one day.
00:13:10And then taking Stephanie to leave the arena.
00:13:13And you hit it right.
00:13:15Jim, Shane McMahon is drunk with power.
00:13:17No doubt about it.
00:13:19Now that little nuisance is over.
00:13:21Let me get down to business right here this evening.
00:13:25You see, there have been two thorns in Shane McMahon's side as of late.
00:13:30Two people, matter of fact.
00:13:32And they're both tied for number one on Shane McMahon's hit list.
00:13:36And that is the so-called Big E.
00:13:40And Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:13:48Now since you both have had such a nice history together,
00:13:51since you can't get along at all,
00:13:53you want to tear each other's heads off,
00:13:55you know what?
00:13:56Tonight, in this very room,
00:13:59we're going to have a little bit of a showdown.
00:14:02We're going to have a little bit of a showdown.
00:14:04We're going to have a little bit of a showdown.
00:14:06You know what?
00:14:07Tonight, in this very ring,
00:14:10Stone Cold Steve Austin will be teamed up
00:14:14with the Brahma Bull, The Rock.
00:14:16Whoa!
00:14:17No!
00:14:19That's never happened!
00:14:22Harsh rivals teaming up tonight!
00:14:24The only thing I need now is some opponents for Stone Cold and The Rock.
00:14:31Are there any volunteers?
00:14:36Yeah, of course, corporate sellout.
00:14:38Triple H!
00:14:39Contestant number one to take on The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:14:45Are there any more volunteers?
00:14:51Anybody?
00:14:53Everybody's volunteering.
00:14:54Are there any tankers?
00:14:59Wait a minute.
00:15:06Yeah!
00:15:14That's the music of The Undertaker!
00:15:16Austin, this past month,
00:15:20you ruined a very special ceremony.
00:15:24I was only moments away
00:15:27from making Stephanie McMahon my bride and servant.
00:15:32See, Austin, what you've done
00:15:34is stick your nose in a place where it had no business.
00:15:39Monday night, you played the role of the spoiler.
00:15:44Tonight, I'm going to play multiple roles.
00:15:49Judge.
00:15:51Jury.
00:15:53Executioner.
00:15:56Leader.
00:15:58Corner.
00:16:05Oh, yeah! The Brahma Bull!
00:16:08The Rattlesnake!
00:16:09Right here tonight on SmackDown
00:16:12against Triple H and The Undertaker!
00:16:15What?
00:16:17Can you feel that power?
00:16:20Can you feel the power of Shane McMahon?
00:16:28And why does this all happen?
00:16:30Because Shane McMahon said so!
00:16:36What a shocker, Jim.
00:16:37How in the world did Shane pull this off?
00:16:39How did he manage this one?
00:16:40I don't know that he has pulled it off.
00:16:42I think The Undertaker's a guy that calls his own shots.
00:16:45I don't know what's going on.
00:16:48Hello again, everybody, and welcome to SmackDown.
00:16:50Thanks for joining us.
00:16:51Michael Cole, Jim Cornette at ringside.
00:16:53And I'll tell you,
00:16:54it may be one of the biggest tag team matches
00:16:56in the history of the WWE.
00:16:58The Rock and Stone Cold,
00:16:59archenemies on one side
00:17:01against Triple H and The Undertaker.
00:17:03Well, that's right,
00:17:04but you talk about tag team action,
00:17:05there's gonna be some more tag team action.
00:17:07The New Age Outlaws have earned the right
00:17:09to face Kane and X-Fact
00:17:10for the WWF Tag Team titles.
00:17:12Members of DX once again
00:17:14on opposing teams
00:17:15will friendship for the gold prevail.
00:17:17Plus, the Corporate Enforcer,
00:17:19the Big Boss Man,
00:17:20in action tonight
00:17:21against one of the most deranged individuals
00:17:23in the history of the WWE.
00:17:25And also,
00:17:26as a result of last Monday's Donnybrook,
00:17:28the World's Most Dangerous Man,
00:17:30former UFC Champion,
00:17:31Ken Shamrock,
00:17:32is gonna face Bradshaw of the Acolytes
00:17:35in a street fight.
00:17:36Anything goes.
00:17:37No hold far.
00:17:38I'll tell you what,
00:17:39that will not be for the week.
00:17:40Where the hell is he?
00:17:41He knows he's got a match now.
00:17:43Did you check your voice message?
00:17:45It's not like he has to show up.
00:17:48The WWF needs a superhero.
00:17:50We need a superhero.
00:17:53The WWF needs a superhero.
00:17:55And I'm here to bring him one.
00:17:59That's the Blue Blazer.
00:18:01Please.
00:18:20He's the former Intercontinental Champion,
00:18:22an alleged former adult film star,
00:18:25Val Venis on his way to the ring,
00:18:27who Jim has spent more time in recent days
00:18:29dodging Nicole Bass,
00:18:31the 6-foot, 240-pound bodyguard
00:18:34for the WWF Women's Champion,
00:18:36Sable.
00:18:37Well, that's right, Michael.
00:18:38As much as Val Venis is noted
00:18:40for having an eye for the ladies,
00:18:42in this case,
00:18:43Nicole Bass has proved she's got an eye for Val.
00:18:46Nicole saved Val Venis in a recent match,
00:18:49and now, where Val goes,
00:18:51Nicole has followed.
00:18:52Even if her romantic advances
00:18:54haven't been welcomed by the Big Val Boesky.
00:18:57The Big Val Boesky in recent weeks.
00:18:59You saw this past week on Raw in USA,
00:19:02had her eyes on Deborah,
00:19:04when Nicole Bass once again came down
00:19:06with her eyes set on Val Venis.
00:19:09Hello, ladies.
00:19:16Ladies, tonight,
00:19:18I would like to invite each and every single one of you
00:19:22to invest in the Big Val Boesky's
00:19:25mutual fund.
00:19:28You see, it's always up
00:19:30more than it's down,
00:19:32and I can guarantee you
00:19:34with this fund,
00:19:35there will never be an early withdrawal.
00:19:40He's one of a kind.
00:19:43Well, speaking of one of a kind,
00:19:44we're gonna head toward two of a kind.
00:19:47Jeff Jarrett and the lovely Deborah.
00:19:52Now, this is interesting, Jim,
00:19:53because Jeff Jarrett's tag team partner, Owen Hart,
00:19:56was actually scheduled to take on Val Venis
00:19:58in this match-up.
00:19:59Jeff Jarrett heading down to the ring here.
00:20:01Jeff's a former Intercontinental and tag team champion,
00:20:04but does Deborah,
00:20:05we don't know her relationship with Jeff Jarrett,
00:20:07but has Deborah had eyes for Val in recent weeks?
00:20:11Well, Deborah has definitely had,
00:20:14I guess, a mutual attraction
00:20:15going on between Val Venis and Deborah,
00:20:18because they've been giving each other the eye.
00:20:20But I'll tell you this, I know one fact,
00:20:22Jeff Jarrett is not too crazy
00:20:24about any potential relationship
00:20:26between Deborah and the big Val Boesky.
00:20:29He pulls her away every time, Michael.
00:20:32You watch Val Venis in the corner,
00:20:34obviously smitten with Deborah.
00:20:36Val, I don't know where the hell Owen's at,
00:20:40and it pisses me off,
00:20:42but tonight, you consider me his replacement?
00:20:46Ring the damn bell.
00:20:48So here we go now.
00:20:49Jeff Jarrett to take on, wait a minute.
00:20:52Jarrett to take on Val Venis,
00:20:53and from behind, that's the Blue Blazer.
00:20:56It's the Blue Blazer attacking Val Venis from behind.
00:20:59Michael, you know as well as I do,
00:21:01that's Owen Hart under that mask.
00:21:03The Blue Blazer is Owen Hart's bizarre alter ego
00:21:06that he adopts from time to time
00:21:08when he wants to drive everybody crazy.
00:21:11Owen Hart first came into the WWF
00:21:13as the Blue Blazer,
00:21:15and now Owen Hart obviously donning the mask once again.
00:21:18Val Venis in trouble.
00:21:19Blue Blazer to the top rope.
00:21:21Venis up quickly.
00:21:22Here comes Blazer with a dropkick to the chin.
00:21:25Well, Deborah cheering on both her men here.
00:21:27You know, Deborah, she seems to enjoy any attention
00:21:30that she gets from any man
00:21:31as long as she's in the center of the spotlight.
00:21:34Glad you could join us for SmackDown here on UPN.
00:21:37We heard the huge news of that big tag team matchup
00:21:40The Undertaker and Triple H
00:21:42against Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock.
00:21:45And that's something that Austin and The Rock
00:21:47obviously have never teamed up.
00:21:49They've had wars against each other.
00:21:51This tag team has never taken place,
00:21:53and I'm not sure it still will,
00:21:54because after all, these guys are gonna have to
00:21:56literally be forced by Shane McMahon to do that.
00:21:58Now Val Venis in control of the Blue Blazer.
00:22:00We talked about Deborah's apparent eyes for Val Venis,
00:22:03but Deborah had some problems
00:22:04with the Godfather this past Monday night.
00:22:07Well, Godfather defeated Jeff Jarrett last Monday
00:22:09and basically won Deborah's services
00:22:12to be one of his ladies.
00:22:13But Owen and Jeff hustled out of the building
00:22:15before that could take place.
00:22:16Val Venis now in control.
00:22:17Blazer rips into the corner.
00:22:18Val follows it up with another forearm,
00:22:20and Val Venis, great young athlete,
00:22:23whips the Blue Blazer into the corner
00:22:25and catches him with an elbow.
00:22:26You know, I gotta wonder, if Owen is the Blue Blazer,
00:22:28why doesn't Jeff Russell is the tweed sport coat, Michael?
00:22:31Val Venis in control.
00:22:32The Blue Blazer here for the win.
00:22:35Also to come tonight, tag team titles on the line.
00:22:37X-Pac and Kane to take on the New Age Outlaws.
00:22:40And Val Venis now, tremendous suplex on the Blue Blazer
00:22:44as Deborah looks on with concern.
00:22:48Beautiful vertical suplex,
00:22:49and finally get Blue Blazer separated from that cape,
00:22:53and that separated him maybe from consciousness,
00:22:55but what?
00:22:56Wait a minute.
00:22:57Deborah on the apron.
00:22:58Deborah separates herself from the Blue Blazer.
00:23:02Deborah separates herself from the rest of your clothing.
00:23:06And Val Venis liking what he sees.
00:23:09Doesn't let it distract him long enough, though.
00:23:11Kick to the midsection.
00:23:12In Val's line of work, he's seen those before,
00:23:15but he's got the bridge.
00:23:17And Jeff Jarrett with a low blow behind the referee's back.
00:23:21Referee never saw it.
00:23:22The Blue Blazer now with a cover,
00:23:24and this one's over.
00:23:25Give the assist to Jeff Jarrett and Deborah.
00:23:27Here's your winner, the Blue Blazer.
00:23:31Well, Deborah's often noted for showing her charms
00:23:34to distract her men's opponents,
00:23:35but when it doesn't work,
00:23:36then Jeff Jarrett's always there to lend a helping hand
00:23:39to what hurts.
00:23:40Wait a minute.
00:23:41And here comes Nicole Bass,
00:23:43who still says Val Venis owes her one
00:23:46for what happened on Sunday Night Heat this past Sunday night.
00:23:49Owes her one what?
00:23:50Well, Nicole, watch some of Val.
00:23:53And Val Venis, he is fed up with running from this woman,
00:23:57but that's preferable to anything I can think of.
00:24:01Nicole Bass saying, you owe me.
00:24:03She's 6'4", 240 pounds,
00:24:05hired as a bodyguard for the WWF Women's Champion Sable.
00:24:10Look at the expression on Val's face.
00:24:12He's going to head for the heels in a double hurry.
00:24:15She is totally smitten with Val Venis.
00:24:18And Val making his way out of here in a fast way.
00:24:24Blue Blazer picks up the victory.
00:24:26An upset if you want to get into it over Val Venis,
00:24:29but the big story here, Nicole Bass and Val Venis,
00:24:33they may be headed to the altar,
00:24:35whether Val likes it or not.
00:24:37What?
00:24:40Wait a minute.
00:24:42The Godfather is coming to collect.
00:24:45He's coming to claim his property.
00:24:48Well, we mentioned that match stipulation was held
00:24:52when Godfather defeated Jeff Jarrett.
00:24:54Debra was supposed to work as one of Godfather's ladies.
00:24:57She hasn't done that yet.
00:24:59And the Godfather now into the ring,
00:25:01takes out the Blue Blazer, takes out Jeff Jarrett.
00:25:05And if Debra's not careful here,
00:25:07she may be heading home with the Godfather.
00:25:10Well, you know, she didn't seem to be the one
00:25:12to have the problem with it the other night.
00:25:14And look at that face.
00:25:15Jeff Jarrett, no one hurt.
00:25:17They had the problem.
00:25:18The Godfather saying, Debra, come aboard the choo-choo.
00:25:23Uh-oh.
00:25:24A clip, a block right from the back of the knee
00:25:27of the Godfather.
00:25:28A spin kick.
00:25:29Michael, these guys have finally gotten the big Godfather down.
00:25:32Blue Blazer and Jeff Jarrett now double teaming the Godfather.
00:25:36Godfather in a two-on-one situation here.
00:25:38Blazer with an elbow to the back
00:25:40after that leg sweep by Jeff Jarrett.
00:25:42And now Jarrett and Owen Hart.
00:25:44Forget the Blue Blazer.
00:25:45Well, this is not a tag team match.
00:25:47This isn't even a match, much less a tag team match.
00:25:49It's two-on-one.
00:25:50The Godfather came to collect what's rightfully his,
00:25:52and these guys have abused him and used him.
00:25:55Well, the Godfather's not going to get what's rightfully his.
00:25:58Debra's going back with Owen Hart, the Blue Blazer,
00:26:01and Jeff Jarrett.
00:26:04If I know the Godfather as well as I do,
00:26:06there will be another day
00:26:07and there will be something else to say about this.
00:26:09He does not let things...
00:26:10Uh-oh.
00:26:11The Rock.
00:26:12And the Rattlesnake had just rubbed elbows all of a sudden.
00:26:16And the old Rattlesnake, again, a little bit of electricity.
00:26:20See, the Rock is just going to have to make
00:26:21a whole bunch of candy asses famous tonight again.
00:26:24Nothing changes.
00:26:25Later on tonight, Rock teams with Stone Cold.
00:26:29Well, Blue Blazer,
00:26:30it's been a while since we've seen you here in the WWF.
00:26:33To what do we owe the honor?
00:26:35Well, Kevin, it's quite simple.
00:26:37The Blue Blazer is back in the WWF
00:26:39because the WWF needs the Blue Blazer back.
00:26:42Needed for what, Owen?
00:26:44Owen?
00:26:45I'm not Owen.
00:26:46Where is Owen?
00:26:47Where is Owen?
00:26:48I'm looking for Owen Hart, too.
00:26:49Where is he?
00:26:50Anyway, the conditions here in the WWF have become deplorable.
00:26:54There's too much...
00:26:58cleavage.
00:26:59And that Val...
00:27:02I can't even say his last name,
00:27:03but you know what it rhymes with.
00:27:04I can't even say it.
00:27:06But he's deplorable.
00:27:07Everything is deplorable here in the WWF.
00:27:09But why you?
00:27:11Why me?
00:27:12Because the WWF needs a superhero like the Blue Blazer.
00:27:17One that can protect good from evil.
00:27:20And one last thing, in closing,
00:27:22to all my little Blue Blazers,
00:27:25take your vitamins, say your prayers,
00:27:27and drink your milk.
00:27:29Woo!
00:27:31Well, that's the end of the show!
00:27:37What an ovation!
00:27:39The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:27:42Making his way to the ring, weighing in at 500 pounds,
00:27:47The Big Show!
00:27:49He is 7 feet tall, 500 pounds,
00:27:52the most coveted free agent in the history of sports entertainment.
00:27:56He's just 27 years old,
00:27:58and The Big Show has already made a tremendous mark in the WWF.
00:28:03Michael, it's been well documented,
00:28:05he's the world's largest professional athlete,
00:28:07but how many human beings at all do you know
00:28:10bigger than this man?
00:28:12He wears a size 20 ring.
00:28:15You can pass a silver dollar through the ring he wears on his ring finger.
00:28:19And The Big Show, this past Sunday night at Backlash,
00:28:22involved in a boiler room brawl with mankind,
00:28:26and what a matchup.
00:28:32And his opponent, he weighs in at 282 pounds,
00:28:38Test!
00:28:39And here comes Test, a victim of Shane McMahon's corporate takeover,
00:28:43no longer a member of the corporation.
00:28:45He was tossed out after an altercation on Raw on USA,
00:28:49this past Monday, with the Big Boss Man.
00:28:52Well, yeah, that's right, Test was downsized.
00:28:54He was tired of being the corporation's whipping boy,
00:28:56and when Boss Man blamed him for a mistake that Boss Man made,
00:29:00Test, being the man that he is,
00:29:02stood up to the Boss Man face-to-face, said,
00:29:04enough, and then it happened.
00:29:06He struck back, and the Boss Man took it from there.
00:29:10Hey, Jim, it had been brewing for weeks.
00:29:11Shane McMahon said he was going to streamline.
00:29:14He was going to, in his words,
00:29:16weed out who he felt didn't belong,
00:29:18and obviously Test wasn't part of Shane McMahon's plans.
00:29:21Well, I don't know whether it might not have been Test's own idea
00:29:24to say, I've had enough of this,
00:29:25but leaving the corporation is kind of like leaving the mob.
00:29:28You encounter some resistance on the way out.
00:29:30A big Test for a tremendous young athlete,
00:29:32and Test, and here comes the Big Boss Man out to ringside
00:29:36as Test now hammers away on the 500-pound Big Show.
00:29:39Folks, we've just received information
00:29:41that Vince and Stephanie McMahon
00:29:43have apparently left the building in disgust.
00:29:46Oh, my! A dropkick from the seven-footer!
00:29:50Did you see him get up in the air?
00:29:52Can you believe that?
00:29:53The agility of a man seven feet tall,
00:29:55over 500 pounds in 20 years in this sport.
00:29:58I have never seen a man like that dropkick.
00:30:01Look at this now.
00:30:02Test up high, going for the ride!
00:30:04Chunk slam!
00:30:06Here's the cover now!
00:30:07And the showstopper puts Test out for the count!
00:30:10What a victory for the Big Show!
00:30:12But wait a minute, wait a minute!
00:30:13Big Show!
00:30:14The Big Boss Man, there has been problems here as well.
00:30:19Boss Man no love for Test, but...
00:30:23is he trying to back the Big Show down?
00:30:26The Big Show's seven foot 500.
00:30:28A Boss Man's no small individual.
00:30:29He's six foot six, 330 pounds.
00:30:33It makes you basically wonder
00:30:34what's in the water with all these guys in the ring.
00:30:36Well, well, it's the Big Show!
00:30:40And now the Boss Man, a vulture,
00:30:41gonna go after the picking.
00:30:43You'll see him wielding that knife stick,
00:30:45the former corrections officer,
00:30:47to the head of Test!
00:30:49Well, that's what you call serving hard time, Michael.
00:30:52That's what the Big Boss Man calls it.
00:30:55He was a prison guard at the
00:30:57Wait a minute!
00:30:58Big Show's back! The Big Show's back!
00:31:00And the Big Boss Man slides out of the ring!
00:31:02Watch it! They're coming over this way!
00:31:05Big Show!
00:31:07Obviously, the Boss Man still hasn't settled his issue with Test.
00:31:11And the Big Show coming to run the Big Boss Man off.
00:31:14Something similar to the action we saw to Steve Austin.
00:31:16He didn't do it because he loved the man.
00:31:18He just did it because it was the right thing to do.
00:31:20Come on, Boss Man!
00:31:22Take a look at this replay.
00:31:24Take a look at this replay.
00:31:25This dropkick, Jim Cornette.
00:31:26I have never seen anything like this in my life.
00:31:29From a man that huge to go that high in the air.
00:31:32The impact had to be crushing.
00:31:34And then the one-armed chokeslam
00:31:36on a 282-pound man.
00:31:38That spelled the end.
00:31:40The showstopper for the Big Show.
00:31:42And what a tremendous victory.
00:31:43And folks, we got perhaps one of the greatest tag team matches
00:31:46in the history of the WWF coming up tonight.
00:31:48You smell what the world...
00:31:51Well, this is one thing we do not have on our formats.
00:32:01Later tonight, that man, The Rock,
00:32:03will team with Stone Cold Steve Austin
00:32:06to take on Triple H and The Undertaker.
00:32:09The Rock, a former WWF champion,
00:32:12a three-time champion,
00:32:14and Jim, at 26 years old,
00:32:16the future of sports entertainment.
00:32:19Well, he is the most electrifying man
00:32:22that I can think of in this industry.
00:32:24He is also the most charismatic at this point.
00:32:27He has a large following
00:32:29and an equally large number of enemies.
00:32:33The Rock joined the corporation for fame,
00:32:36for powerful money,
00:32:38but Shane McMahon excommunicated The Rock
00:32:41this past Monday night
00:32:42and asked for the big matchup tonight
00:32:44where The Rock will team with Stone Cold.
00:32:46Don't expect cohesion.
00:32:47Don't expect a tremendous team tonight.
00:32:49Well, you know, I always knew this guy could do it on his own.
00:32:52He's got the ability. He's got the tools.
00:32:54He took the corporate shortcut,
00:32:56but he has seen that the corporation
00:32:58got more out of him than he got out of them.
00:33:10Shane McMahon, Triple H,
00:33:13last Monday on Raw,
00:33:15you two jabronis decided to check
00:33:18both your candy asses in
00:33:20to the SmackDown Hotel.
00:33:28So you go on and let the Great One
00:33:30be the first one to break the bad news
00:33:32to you two.
00:33:33Rudy!
00:33:35Rudy Pooh!
00:33:45Like The Rock was saying,
00:33:46let him be the first one
00:33:48to break the bad news
00:33:49to you two.
00:33:50Rudy Pooh!
00:33:52Candy asses!
00:33:55That you damn sure checked in,
00:33:58you two will damn sure check out,
00:34:00but you don't check out
00:34:02without a little departing gift
00:34:04from The Rock,
00:34:05which is his fist in your mouth
00:34:07and his foot in your ass.
00:34:10Well, that's different
00:34:11than a mint on your pillow.
00:34:17Now, as far as for you,
00:34:18Stone Cold Steve Austin,
00:34:21you and The Rock,
00:34:22tonight, tag team,
00:34:24make no mistake about it.
00:34:26You're damn right,
00:34:27we'll fight the fight,
00:34:28but we ain't partners,
00:34:30we ain't buddies,
00:34:32and we damn sure ain't friends.
00:34:34So if you so much tonight
00:34:35get in The Rock's way,
00:34:37this Brahma Bull will dip his head,
00:34:39take his horns,
00:34:40and stick them straight up your ass!
00:34:55He's the WWF Champion!
00:34:57The Texas Rattlesnake!
00:34:59He has no friends!
00:35:00He lives by the motto,
00:35:01don't trust anybody!
00:35:03But tonight,
00:35:04he's gonna be partners
00:35:06with the man he defeated
00:35:07in WrestleMania in Backlash,
00:35:09The Rock and Ken,
00:35:10they get along!
00:35:12Well, I think that he just gave The Rock
00:35:14a little gesture as an answer.
00:35:16Michael, I don't see how these two
00:35:18can even share the same ring together,
00:35:21much less be in the same corner.
00:35:24The electricity in this place
00:35:26is off the page!
00:35:31Yeah!
00:35:34Anyone who has witnessed the wars
00:35:36that these two men have fought
00:35:38in WrestleMania and Backlash,
00:35:40the only thing that they have in common,
00:35:42they are both tremendous athletes
00:35:44and fierce competitors,
00:35:46and they are bitter rivals at that.
00:35:54Let me come out here
00:35:55and get this straight
00:35:56right off the bat.
00:36:00Last week and tonight,
00:36:01you come out here
00:36:03talking all your trash
00:36:04about Stone Cold Steve Austin,
00:36:06I'll tell you this,
00:36:07you will always be,
00:36:09in my eyes,
00:36:10some punk kid
00:36:12running around out here
00:36:13spitting out nursery rhymes.
00:36:19Saying what you're gonna do,
00:36:21turn your little horn sideways
00:36:23because you're the Brahma Bull.
00:36:26Stone Cold Steve Austin
00:36:28will knock your stupid horns
00:36:30right off your head,
00:36:31wipe your ass,
00:36:32put you on a barbecue grill,
00:36:34and that's all I got to say about that.
00:36:42We got company!
00:36:46It's Shane McMahon!
00:36:52Shane made this matchup earlier tonight,
00:36:54Brock Austin against Triple H
00:36:56against Triple H and The Undertaker.
00:36:58Isn't that cute?
00:37:00Look at the two of you.
00:37:01You can't get along.
00:37:03You want to tear each other's heads off.
00:37:05You make each other sick to their stomachs.
00:37:08And you know what?
00:37:09That is absolutely perfect.
00:37:12Do you know why?
00:37:14Because my plan
00:37:15is getting bigger and better
00:37:17as we speak.
00:37:24Wait a minute.
00:37:27Wait a minute.
00:37:32It's The Undertaker's music again.
00:37:34Somebody's gonna be in trouble.
00:37:36I just don't know who.
00:37:37The meet-up.
00:37:38The Undertaker.
00:37:42Jimmy's standing side-by-side
00:37:44with Shane McMahon.
00:37:46Shane McMahon is standing side-by-side
00:37:48with The Undertaker,
00:37:49the man that abducted his sister.
00:37:51Are you beginning to understand?
00:37:53Are you beginning to feel the power?
00:37:55Well, let me help spell it out for you
00:37:57just a little bit more.
00:38:01The Undertaker and Shane McMahon
00:38:03standing side-by-side.
00:38:05Wait a minute.
00:38:06There's Triple H.
00:38:08Paul Bearer.
00:38:09It's The Corporation
00:38:11and The Ministry of Darkness.
00:38:14My God, Michael.
00:38:15Are they joint forces?
00:38:18What the hell is going on?
00:38:21What does this mean?
00:38:22What has Shane engineered here?
00:38:25What has Shane manipulated?
00:38:27It's a merger from hell.
00:38:28The Corporation and Ministry
00:38:30standing together
00:38:32as one on stage.
00:38:35Austin, Rock,
00:38:37let me be the first to introduce you
00:38:39to The Corporate Ministry.
00:38:42Oh, my God.
00:38:43And you guys better get it together
00:38:46and change your strategy.
00:38:50The Undertaker and Shane
00:38:52have joined together
00:38:55with The Corporation and The Ministry
00:38:57together.
00:38:58What power on earth, human or other,
00:38:59can stop them?
00:39:00The odds are stacked against the Rock
00:39:02and Stone Cold tonight.
00:39:05X-Pac, Kane,
00:39:06tonight you defend the tag team titles
00:39:08against the New Age Outlaws,
00:39:09but let's go back first to last Monday night,
00:39:11X-Pac,
00:39:12because you two definitely had some problems.
00:39:14Immediately following Kane's being victimized
00:39:16by the bloodbath from The Brood,
00:39:18as we take a look at some footage
00:39:20from last Monday,
00:39:21you'll see, once again,
00:39:23Kane, instead of turning his anger and attention
00:39:25towards The Brood,
00:39:26turned it towards you,
00:39:28grabbing you by the throat
00:39:29and surprising everybody
00:39:30by chokeslamming you over a wall.
00:39:32Then, X-Pac, you look to settle things
00:39:33throughout the night,
00:39:34finally calling out Kane
00:39:35towards the end of the evening,
00:39:37wanting answers about where you stood.
00:39:39For that question,
00:39:40you receive, once again,
00:39:41a chokeslam
00:39:42from your tag team partner.
00:39:44So in light of the,
00:39:45well, the obvious differences
00:39:47that you two are having,
00:39:48plus the fact that you're taking on
00:39:49fellow DXers,
00:39:50the New Age Outlaws,
00:39:51is your loyalty torn tonight
00:39:52in this tag team match?
00:39:54So what do you ask me, Kevin?
00:39:55If it's gonna be unpredictable
00:39:56out there tonight?
00:39:58Well, that's how he seems
00:39:59to like things.
00:40:00You want things unpredictable?
00:40:02That's what you're gonna get.
00:40:07X-Pac and Kane
00:40:08to defend the tag team titles
00:40:09later on
00:40:10tonight on SmackDown.
00:40:13But, Jim, what a shocker.
00:40:14Shane McMahon and The Undertaker
00:40:15just moments ago
00:40:16unveiling the corporate ministry.
00:40:19The merger from hell
00:40:20and I don't know what power
00:40:21on earth can prevent these guys
00:40:23from taking over the WWF.
00:40:25The following contest
00:40:26is scheduled for one fall,
00:40:27making its way to the ring
00:40:28being accompanied
00:40:29by Prince Albert
00:40:30from Mays Lane, New Jersey,
00:40:33weighing in at 275 pounds,
00:40:36Draws.
00:40:38And there you see Draws
00:40:39in the hat,
00:40:40the former NFL player,
00:40:41rude, crude, tattooed,
00:40:42and full of attitude.
00:40:44But what about Prince Albert?
00:40:45There you see him
00:40:46talking to the referee.
00:40:47Draws is a personal tattoo artist
00:40:49and pierced it.
00:40:50Well, we first saw him
00:40:52a few weeks ago
00:40:53and he's made some noise.
00:40:54Coming to the ring by Ivory
00:40:56from Chicago, Illinois,
00:40:57weighing in at 265 pounds,
00:41:01D'Lo Brown.
00:41:03I don't know whether Ivory's
00:41:04gonna be enough backup
00:41:05for D'Lo Brown
00:41:06to counteract Prince Albert.
00:41:07We first saw Prince Albert
00:41:08a couple of weeks ago
00:41:09when he came to avenge
00:41:10the fact that Draws' nose ring
00:41:12had been ripped out
00:41:13by the Big Boss Man.
00:41:14That was Prince Albert's
00:41:15handiwork
00:41:16being messed with
00:41:17and he didn't appreciate it.
00:41:18So it's D'Lo Brown
00:41:19versus Draws
00:41:20and folks immediately
00:41:21following this matchup.
00:41:23WWF Women's Champion
00:41:24Stable goes Hollywood.
00:41:26And Jim,
00:41:27she's been a very busy lady
00:41:28as of late.
00:41:29Well, she's been on the cover
00:41:30of Playboy,
00:41:32Field and Stream.
00:41:33She'd been everywhere.
00:41:34I mean, my God,
00:41:35and it's gone to her head too.
00:41:37We're gonna take a look
00:41:38at Stable in Hollywood
00:41:39coming up following
00:41:40this matchup.
00:41:41And here's Draws now
00:41:42whipping D'Lo into the corner.
00:41:43A nice shoulder takedown
00:41:44by D'Lo Brown.
00:41:45D'Lo Brown,
00:41:46a former European champion,
00:41:47he doesn't get the respect
00:41:48that he deserves
00:41:49for the WWF
00:41:50or the fans,
00:41:51in my opinion,
00:41:52for the all-around talent
00:41:53that he has.
00:41:54He has got it all.
00:41:55You're watching
00:41:56WWF SmackDown on UPN
00:41:57and folks,
00:41:58we are shocked
00:41:59how cold,
00:42:00how callous,
00:42:01how calculated
00:42:02is Shane McMahon.
00:42:03Jim,
00:42:04was Shane and The Undertaker
00:42:05involved in this plot
00:42:06all along?
00:42:07I don't know.
00:42:08How long have they been
00:42:09in cahoots?
00:42:10Is this something
00:42:11that just happened today?
00:42:12Did it happen before
00:42:13The Undertaker
00:42:14and Stephanie?
00:42:15Or are they in cahoots?
00:42:16Or is one play
00:42:17in the other one
00:42:18for a fool?
00:42:19So many questions,
00:42:20so few answers.
00:42:21Wow.
00:42:22What a slam by Draws,
00:42:23the 285 pounder.
00:42:24I've got to know,
00:42:25how are Stephanie
00:42:26and Vince McMahon
00:42:27going to react to this?
00:42:28We told you earlier on,
00:42:29they apparently
00:42:30left the building
00:42:31in disgust
00:42:32a few moments ago.
00:42:33Well,
00:42:34when you've got
00:42:35a father
00:42:36talked to that way
00:42:37by his son,
00:42:38he had to be embarrassed.
00:42:39Oh!
00:42:40Set out powerbomb
00:42:41by D'Lo Brown
00:42:42with authority
00:42:43and D'Lo Brown
00:42:44now in control.
00:42:45You know,
00:42:46the Shane and Undertaker,
00:42:47have they been in cahoots?
00:42:48And if so,
00:42:49did Shane McMahon
00:42:50know anything
00:42:51about the abduction
00:42:52of Stephanie,
00:42:53his own sister?
00:42:54I don't know.
00:42:55All I know is that
00:42:56if Vince did leave
00:42:57and take Stephanie home,
00:42:58that's probably
00:42:59where she's safest.
00:43:00But when he hears
00:43:01about what has gone on,
00:43:02Vince McMahon
00:43:03will blow
00:43:04every gasket
00:43:05in his brain.
00:43:06What a clothesline
00:43:07by Draws.
00:43:08Folks,
00:43:09still to come tonight,
00:43:10perhaps one of the
00:43:11greatest tag team matches
00:43:12against Austin.
00:43:13Can they get along
00:43:14against Triple H
00:43:15and The Undertaker?
00:43:16Great athletic ability
00:43:17by Draws,
00:43:18but D'Lo caught him
00:43:19with a kick to the face.
00:43:20I'll tell you,
00:43:21D'Lo's no slouch either.
00:43:22You talk about
00:43:23tag team championships,
00:43:24D'Lo Brown and Mark Henry,
00:43:25a tremendous tag team,
00:43:26had hoped to be
00:43:27the tag team champions,
00:43:28but that's been,
00:43:29those hopes
00:43:30have been on hold
00:43:31since Mark Henry's
00:43:32been sidelined
00:43:33with double knee surgery
00:43:34for the past few months.
00:43:35Draws now,
00:43:36finger to the eye,
00:43:37now a right hand
00:43:38to the face
00:43:39of D'Lo Brown.
00:43:40Draws,
00:43:41a great softball player,
00:43:42and look at D'Lo now,
00:43:43sky high,
00:43:44caught him.
00:43:45Draws is in trouble.
00:43:46Another one of those
00:43:47innovative maneuvers
00:43:48that a man the size
00:43:49of D'Lo Brown,
00:43:50you would not expect him
00:43:51to be able to execute.
00:43:52D'Lo Brown,
00:43:53near 300 pounder,
00:43:54was going for the low down
00:43:55and Prince Albert,
00:43:56with a referee's back turn,
00:43:57tossed D'Lo off the top rope.
00:43:59That frog splash
00:44:00that D'Lo Brown
00:44:01calls the low down,
00:44:02generally spells the end
00:44:03for any victim
00:44:04that it lands on,
00:44:05but in this case,
00:44:06Prince Albert
00:44:07stalled that off.
00:44:08You see the spark plug ivory
00:44:09cheering D'Lo Brown on.
00:44:11Outside the ring,
00:44:12draws now in control.
00:44:13Look at Prince Albert
00:44:14on the apron now.
00:44:15Reversal,
00:44:16draws into Prince Albert,
00:44:17knocks him down.
00:44:18Inadvertent malfunction
00:44:19at the junction,
00:44:20D'Lo Brown still
00:44:21weebling and wobbling
00:44:22from being pushed
00:44:23off that top rope,
00:44:24but he flies.
00:44:25Wow!
00:44:26D'Lo took out both men
00:44:27over the top rope.
00:44:29Tremendous athlete,
00:44:30this D'Lo Brown,
00:44:31near 300 pounder.
00:44:33And when you're that size
00:44:34and you take that kind of risk
00:44:35from that height,
00:44:36it can be an
00:44:37all or nothing proposition.
00:44:38In this case,
00:44:39he got it all.
00:44:40D'Lo Brown,
00:44:41certified public accountant
00:44:42at CPA.
00:44:43Been in this business
00:44:44just about four years now.
00:44:45Has made tremendous strides.
00:44:47Gonna climb the top rope
00:44:48and again,
00:44:49Prince Albert in the ring.
00:44:50Right hand to the gut
00:44:51of D'Lo Brown.
00:44:52D'Lo gonna fly.
00:44:53There's the bell
00:44:54for the disqualification.
00:44:55He's pressed him.
00:44:56Wow!
00:44:57He pressed him
00:44:58and slammed D'Lo Brown.
00:45:02Prince Albert,
00:45:03we have got another
00:45:04handicap match situation
00:45:05with Prince Albert,
00:45:06the personal tattooist
00:45:08and piercist
00:45:09or whatever of Braz.
00:45:10Well, Ivory just took off
00:45:11up the ramp.
00:45:12What in the world?
00:45:14Well, you know what?
00:45:15They look like those
00:45:16piercing tools.
00:45:18Prince Albert is getting
00:45:19in a briefcase
00:45:20and he has got,
00:45:21my God,
00:45:22that needle's gotta be
00:45:23a foot long.
00:45:24We told you,
00:45:25Prince Albert,
00:45:26the personal
00:45:27piercist and tattooist
00:45:28of Braz.
00:45:29He's got his tongue.
00:45:30He's got his tongue.
00:45:31Wait a minute.
00:45:32Wait a minute, Jim.
00:45:33Here comes sexual chocolate,
00:45:34D'Lo Brown.
00:45:35Tattoo partner,
00:45:36Mark Henry.
00:45:37And a right hand
00:45:38to Prince Albert.
00:45:39Mark Henry,
00:45:40the world's strongest man.
00:45:41He competed
00:45:42for the United States
00:45:43in the Olympics
00:45:44in weightlifting.
00:45:45He is D'Lo Brown's partner
00:45:46and as you can see,
00:45:47he's back in action.
00:45:48Mark Henry is back
00:45:50helping out
00:45:51his partner,
00:45:52D'Lo Brown.
00:45:53And I think Prince Albert
00:45:54was just about to put
00:45:55a piercing
00:45:56in the tongue of D'Lo.
00:45:57Well, I'll tell you instead,
00:45:58Ivory ran for the hills
00:46:00to get Mark Henry.
00:46:01He played the Seventh Cavalry
00:46:03and the family
00:46:04is reunited again.
00:46:06Sexual chocolate
00:46:07saves the day
00:46:09for D'Lo Brown
00:46:10and his tag team
00:46:12obviously back together again.
00:46:22New Age Outlaws,
00:46:23your tag team title match
00:46:24is next,
00:46:25but do you feel awkward at all
00:46:26taking on your good friend,
00:46:27X-Pac?
00:46:29Well, Double K,
00:46:30as you know
00:46:31and everybody else knows,
00:46:32that from our nose
00:46:33to our toes,
00:46:34we got champs
00:46:35written all over us.
00:46:36But by cracky,
00:46:37it may get a little wacky
00:46:39because X-Pac
00:46:40is a close and personal
00:46:41friend of mine.
00:46:42Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:43Whoa.
00:46:44Friends?
00:46:46Friends?
00:46:47There's no friends
00:46:48when it comes to these titles, man.
00:46:50Get your head on.
00:46:53Billy.
00:46:55It's not!
00:46:57It's not!
00:46:58Think you can tell us
00:46:59what to do?
00:47:00Yeah.
00:47:01Think you can tell us
00:47:02what to wear?
00:47:03Ha ha.
00:47:04Think you better?
00:47:05Yeah.
00:47:06Way to better get ready
00:47:07to bow to the master.
00:47:12Tremendous ovation
00:47:14for a tremendous athlete.
00:47:16He's fought after
00:47:17the tag team champions.
00:47:19Here comes X-Pac.
00:47:22Don't worry,
00:47:23contestants can go for
00:47:24one fall,
00:47:25and he's for the
00:47:26World Wrestling Association
00:47:27Tag Team Champions.
00:47:30In the ring for Mayhem
00:47:31with Winnesota,
00:47:32weighing in at
00:47:33six pounds,
00:47:35X-Pac.
00:47:36I'll tell you something, Michael.
00:47:37This kid's courage
00:47:38is his strongest asset.
00:47:40He doesn't know
00:47:41he's the smallest dog
00:47:42in the fight.
00:47:43You can't convince him
00:47:44otherwise.
00:47:45But tonight,
00:47:46X-Pac is gonna take on
00:47:47longtime friends.
00:47:48Bad-ass Billy
00:47:49going to the rooftop.
00:47:50The New Age Outlaws.
00:47:52All of them
00:47:53members of the
00:47:54Generation X.
00:47:55The wild card
00:47:56of this one is Kane.
00:47:57And speaking of which.
00:48:00Buckle up.
00:48:04Buckle up.
00:48:12Go!
00:48:14And here comes
00:48:15X-Pac's partner.
00:48:16Tag Team partner.
00:48:18He weighs in
00:48:19at 326 pounds.
00:48:23Kane!
00:48:25Michael, I'll tell you,
00:48:26X-Pac and Kane,
00:48:27an unlikely team.
00:48:28X-Pac has been
00:48:29the only person
00:48:30in the WWF
00:48:31to truly befriend Kane.
00:48:32But the Big Red Machine
00:48:33works on instinct.
00:48:34He doesn't know
00:48:35how to trust anybody.
00:48:36And sometimes
00:48:37he will lash out
00:48:38even at his own partner.
00:48:39And Kane has trusted
00:48:40very few people
00:48:41in his life.
00:48:42And the people
00:48:43who he hasn't trusted
00:48:44have turned their
00:48:45backs on him.
00:48:46They've stabbed him
00:48:47in the back.
00:48:48And we've seen
00:48:49in recent weeks
00:48:50that Kane
00:48:51still cannot apparently
00:48:52bring himself
00:48:53to trust that man,
00:48:54his Tag Team partner,
00:48:55X-Pac.
00:48:56Well, Kane,
00:48:57a tragic figure.
00:48:58The younger brother
00:48:59of The Undertaker.
00:49:00He was horribly scarred
00:49:01when he was a child.
00:49:02He was raised
00:49:03without guidance.
00:49:04Got really no right
00:49:05for wrongs.
00:49:06And out to no!
00:49:12And he is a dangerous,
00:49:13dangerous individual.
00:49:15Perhaps the most
00:49:16destructive force
00:49:17in the World Wrestling
00:49:18Federation.
00:49:19Oh, you didn't know?
00:49:23You're X-Pac.
00:49:24Call somebody!
00:49:31And the Tag Team Champions
00:49:33on a number of occasions.
00:49:37They're fun,
00:49:38they're colorful,
00:49:39they're great athletes.
00:49:40Take a look at
00:49:41what's going on here.
00:49:42It's Billy's
00:49:43own business.
00:49:45It's a D-O-double-G.
00:49:49He took off
00:49:50the left road dog.
00:49:51D-A-double-D-A-double
00:49:52Crooked Letter.
00:49:58The road dog
00:49:59and badass Billy Gunn
00:50:00to take on their friend
00:50:02and DX member,
00:50:03X-Pac,
00:50:04along with Kane
00:50:05for the Tag Team Titles.
00:50:08Welcome to my dog house.
00:50:14Where the L.L.s
00:50:15always kick it
00:50:16doggy style.
00:50:20Ladies and gentlemen,
00:50:21boys and girls,
00:50:22children of all ages.
00:50:23The Generation X
00:50:24proudly brings to you
00:50:26it's soon to be
00:50:27WWF Tag Team
00:50:29Champion of the World!
00:50:34The Road Dog,
00:50:35Jesse James,
00:50:36the badass Billy Gunn,
00:50:38the New Age
00:50:40Outlaw!
00:50:46Well, usually Billy Gunn
00:50:47will follow this up
00:50:48with some words of his own,
00:50:49but he just told Road Dog
00:50:51none of that.
00:50:52And as we saw in the interview, Jim,
00:50:53Billy Gunn all business tonight.
00:50:55He said it's about
00:50:56winning those Tag Team
00:50:57Championship belts
00:50:58right there.
00:50:59Well, the Outlaws
00:51:00have been there.
00:51:01They've been to the top
00:51:02of the mountain.
00:51:03They've held the gold
00:51:04on several different occasions
00:51:05and they're so anxious
00:51:06to regain that
00:51:07that they're willing to face
00:51:08a friend to do it.
00:51:09And I think Mr. Ass
00:51:10is a little more willing
00:51:11than Road Dog
00:51:12to face a friend.
00:51:13The New Age Outlaws
00:51:14won this Tag Title shot
00:51:15by defeating
00:51:16Jeff Jarrett,
00:51:17Noah Hart at Backlash
00:51:18this past Sunday night.
00:51:19And now with X-Pac
00:51:20going to work
00:51:21with a side headlock
00:51:22on the Road Dog.
00:51:23This should be a fast,
00:51:24exciting matchup.
00:51:25Well, no one knows
00:51:26X-Pac and his style
00:51:27better than do
00:51:28the New Age Outlaws
00:51:29that they know
00:51:30there's no quitting the kid,
00:51:31but also they know
00:51:32his weak points as well,
00:51:33including the fact
00:51:34he's had neck surgery,
00:51:35Michael,
00:51:36and he is susceptible
00:51:37to neck injury.
00:51:38Oh, what a spinning heel
00:51:39kick by X-Pac.
00:51:40Caught Road Dog
00:51:41under the chin.
00:51:42This is the first
00:51:43in what will be
00:51:44two tremendous
00:51:45Tag Team matches
00:51:46a bit later on tonight.
00:51:47Shane McMahon set it up.
00:51:48The Rock will team
00:51:49with Stone Cold
00:51:50Steve Austin
00:51:51against The Undertaker
00:51:52and Triple H.
00:51:53And we just saw
00:51:54the unveiling
00:51:55of the corporate ministry.
00:51:56And I am just afraid
00:51:57to think what's going
00:51:58to happen next
00:51:59with the corporation
00:52:00and the ministry
00:52:01having joint forces.
00:52:02That could be
00:52:03an unstoppable combination.
00:52:04A little too much
00:52:05hot-dogging,
00:52:06but X-Pac missed
00:52:07with a kick
00:52:08and Road Dog
00:52:09caught him
00:52:10with a right hand.
00:52:11These two great friends
00:52:12from D-Generation X
00:52:13battling out now
00:52:14for the WWF
00:52:15Tag Team titles.
00:52:16And a little bit
00:52:17of show of solidarity
00:52:18there.
00:52:19A little mutual respect,
00:52:20I think,
00:52:21more than solidarity,
00:52:22Michael.
00:52:23That's the DX salute
00:52:24as Billy Gunn now
00:52:25comes into the ring
00:52:26and he shoves X-Pac
00:52:27into the corner.
00:52:28Wait a minute.
00:52:29Look, Kane
00:52:30just snatched X-Pac
00:52:31by the hair
00:52:32and forced the tag.
00:52:33Kane, this guy
00:52:34barely shows a trace
00:52:35of human emotion.
00:52:36There's got to be
00:52:37some way to reach him,
00:52:38but his soul
00:52:39is buried so deep down,
00:52:40Michael.
00:52:41Well, can you blame him?
00:52:42Everything he's been
00:52:43through in his life.
00:52:44Billy Gunn now
00:52:45backs the near seven-footer
00:52:46into the corner,
00:52:47hammers away
00:52:48with right hands.
00:52:49And pound for pound,
00:52:50Billy Gunn
00:52:51and X-Pac
00:52:52pound for pound.
00:52:53Billy Gunn may indeed
00:52:54be the best pure athlete
00:52:55in the WWF,
00:52:56but Kane
00:52:57is manhandling him
00:52:58as he tosses him
00:52:59into the corner.
00:53:00Well, unfortunately,
00:53:01pound for pound,
00:53:02Kane's doing most
00:53:03of the pounding right now.
00:53:04Kane, one half
00:53:05of the Tag Team Champions,
00:53:06whips Billy Gunn
00:53:07into the corner
00:53:08and just knocks him down
00:53:09with a clothesline.
00:53:10Oh, my,
00:53:11what a leg drop.
00:53:12I'll venture to say,
00:53:13Jim,
00:53:14as Kane now
00:53:15goes for the cover,
00:53:16first one of the matchup,
00:53:17and Billy Gunn
00:53:18gets the shoulder up,
00:53:19that Kane and X-Pac
00:53:20may be the most unique
00:53:21in one of the most
00:53:22explosive tag teams
00:53:23in the history
00:53:24of the WWF.
00:53:25And we expect
00:53:26X-Pac to be explosive,
00:53:27but Kane is so explosive.
00:53:28The elevation
00:53:29you just saw
00:53:30in the leg drop.
00:53:31A tremendous
00:53:32athletic maneuver,
00:53:33and now he just
00:53:34sends Mr. Ass
00:53:35upside down
00:53:36and flat on his face.
00:53:37Kane will do things
00:53:38that a man
00:53:39nearly seven feet
00:53:40and well over 300 pounds
00:53:41should not be able
00:53:42to do by the law of physics.
00:53:43Well, Billy Gunn
00:53:44goes six foot five,
00:53:45270,
00:53:46and Kane's having
00:53:47his way right now.
00:53:48Billy Gunn
00:53:49whips across the ring
00:53:50with a clean buckle.
00:53:52Kane has been
00:53:53so destructive
00:53:54single-handedly.
00:53:55The heart of the team
00:53:56is X-Pac.
00:53:57The soul of the team
00:53:58is X-Pac,
00:53:59but Kane,
00:54:00he's basically,
00:54:01as JR puts it,
00:54:02the cleanup hitter.
00:54:04Billy Gunn now,
00:54:05rake of the arm,
00:54:07now goes to work
00:54:08on that right arm
00:54:09of Kane,
00:54:10and Kane follows it up
00:54:11with a clothesline.
00:54:12And Kane from the left side
00:54:13where Billy Gunn
00:54:14wasn't expecting it
00:54:15to come from,
00:54:16and now X-Pac
00:54:17asking for the tag.
00:54:18These two have not
00:54:19had a cohesive unit
00:54:20as far as
00:54:21tag team continuity
00:54:22is concerned
00:54:23in any of their outings.
00:54:24Yeah, we've seen
00:54:25in recent weeks,
00:54:26X-Pac has shown
00:54:27for a tag team match.
00:54:28Kane may not show up
00:54:29until halfway through it.
00:54:30X-Pac never seems
00:54:31to know where Kane is.
00:54:32But as strange
00:54:33as it may seem
00:54:34and as unorthodox,
00:54:35it has worked for them.
00:54:36They have retained
00:54:37the WWF Tag Team Championship.
00:54:39Leapfrog by X-Pac.
00:54:40Billy Gunn
00:54:41catches him with a dropkick.
00:54:42What a maneuver
00:54:43by Badass Billy Gunn,
00:54:44and now hammering away
00:54:45on X-Pac.
00:54:47Billy Gunn
00:54:48with that closed fist there.
00:54:50Remember,
00:54:51X-Pac a friend
00:54:52of the Outlaws.
00:54:53You know,
00:54:54with friends like this,
00:54:55I don't believe
00:54:56I'd need enemies
00:54:57because Mr. Ass
00:54:58may have had the advantage there,
00:54:59but he was drilling
00:55:00a closed fist
00:55:01into his friend's face.
00:55:02Here's a cover now
00:55:03by Road Dogg,
00:55:04and X-Pac kicks out.
00:55:07Nobody has ever accused
00:55:09DX of playing it safe
00:55:11or playing it nice
00:55:12or playing by the rules,
00:55:13but still,
00:55:14you would think
00:55:15there would be
00:55:16a little more solidarity
00:55:17between guys
00:55:18that have been so close,
00:55:19especially after Triple H
00:55:20is a guy
00:55:21who betrayed him.
00:55:22Still the cover tonight
00:55:23on WWF SmackDown,
00:55:24that huge tag team match.
00:55:25Triple H
00:55:26and The Undertaker
00:55:27from the corporate ministry
00:55:29are gonna take on
00:55:30The Rock and Stone Cold.
00:55:31How in the world
00:55:32are they gonna get along?
00:55:33Oh!
00:55:34Billy Gunn
00:55:35and X-Pac in trouble.
00:55:37I am still shocked
00:55:38and amazed
00:55:39that Shane McMahon
00:55:40would slap Steve Austin
00:55:41and The Rock in the face
00:55:42like he has
00:55:43by forcing them,
00:55:44their rivals,
00:55:45to be partners.
00:55:46Oh!
00:55:47I'm not surprised at all
00:55:48the way Shane's been acting
00:55:49as of late.
00:55:50A serious power trip.
00:55:51And Jim,
00:55:52I gotta believe
00:55:53if The Undertaker
00:55:54and Shane
00:55:55were involved in this,
00:55:56we're in cahoots at all.
00:55:57I mean,
00:55:58Shane McMahon,
00:55:59what was he thinking about?
00:56:00His sister.
00:56:01He got it!
00:56:02He got the tag!
00:56:03And here comes Kane
00:56:04now into the ring.
00:56:05Momentum shifting here.
00:56:06Right hand from Kane
00:56:07after the tag by X-Pac.
00:56:09Tag team championship
00:56:10on the line.
00:56:11Billy Gunn
00:56:12off the rope
00:56:13with his right foot
00:56:14to the face.
00:56:15Here's Road Dogg now
00:56:16and Kane now
00:56:17in control.
00:56:18The big red machine,
00:56:19the demon.
00:56:20He is unstoppable
00:56:21when he gets on a roll
00:56:22but the Road Dogg
00:56:23gonna give it
00:56:24the shake,
00:56:25rattle, and roll.
00:56:26The southpaw
00:56:27going to work
00:56:28follows it up
00:56:29with a right hand
00:56:30to Kane.
00:56:31And now the double team
00:56:32by the Outlaws.
00:56:33Double drop
00:56:34take the McMahons down.
00:56:35They knock the tree down.
00:56:36They took him off his feet
00:56:37but can they keep him there?
00:56:38Shake, rattle, and roll.
00:56:39And the Outlaws now
00:56:40gaining momentum
00:56:41but Kane is set up.
00:56:42Kane is up.
00:56:43The Road Dogg doesn't realize.
00:56:45And the Road Dogg
00:56:46may be going for a ride.
00:56:47He's heading
00:56:48to the dog house.
00:56:49One thing about when
00:56:50Kane takes you for a ride.
00:56:51No, he's got X-Pac too.
00:56:52He's got them both.
00:56:53His partner
00:56:54and his opponent.
00:56:55Kane is confused
00:56:56once again.
00:56:58And Billy Gunn now
00:56:59kicked to the midsection.
00:57:02Double team now
00:57:03by the Outlaws.
00:57:04Kane whipped off the rope
00:57:05and double clothesline.
00:57:08Kane for a moment there
00:57:09and anyone who comes at him
00:57:10he just,
00:57:11he reacts out of instinct.
00:57:13He doesn't think.
00:57:14He just does.
00:57:15X-Pac now
00:57:16went to the Bronco Buster
00:57:17on Road Dogg
00:57:18and Road Dogg rolled out of the way.
00:57:20Headbutt by Kane.
00:57:22Kane still in control
00:57:23of Mr. Ass
00:57:24but meanwhile there's a pileup
00:57:25over the corner
00:57:26of Road Dogg and X-Pac
00:57:27both down.
00:57:28That was the quickness
00:57:29of Billy Gunn
00:57:30and Road Dogg goes down low now
00:57:31with a low blow
00:57:32and there's the Famouser.
00:57:33This one could be over.
00:57:34The Famouser
00:57:35by Billy Gunn.
00:57:36We could have new tag team champions
00:57:38to cover it out
00:57:39and X-Pac makes the save.
00:57:40X-Pac in the nick of time
00:57:41got there
00:57:42and Billy Gunn
00:57:43now turns around
00:57:44and turns his attention
00:57:45to X-Pac
00:57:46and Road Dogg
00:57:47almost as if he's telling
00:57:48Mr. Ass
00:57:49to lighten up.
00:57:51Badass Billy Gunn
00:57:52tossing X-Pac
00:57:53into the corner.
00:57:54Oh look at this now.
00:57:55X-Pac
00:57:56hooks the leg.
00:57:57This one's over.
00:57:58X-Pac and Kane
00:57:59retain the WWF
00:58:00tag team title.
00:58:02And still
00:58:03World Wrestling Federation
00:58:05tag team champions
00:58:07X-Pac and
00:58:09Kane.
00:58:10My God Michael
00:58:11did you see how it happened?
00:58:12Billy Gunn had X-Pac
00:58:13pressed over his head.
00:58:14Road Dogg
00:58:15was knocked into Billy's leg.
00:58:17The whole pound came tumbling down
00:58:19and X-Pac ended up on top
00:58:20for the victory
00:58:21giving Kane the assist.
00:58:22The fact of the matter once again
00:58:24that this unique team
00:58:25of X-Pac and Kane
00:58:27managed to function together
00:58:28yet again
00:58:29to retain the tag team title.
00:58:31And by hook or by crook
00:58:33these two men
00:58:34have stayed together
00:58:35and they have stayed champions.
00:58:38Still to come tonight
00:58:39you see Stone Cold
00:58:40getting ready.
00:58:41The Rattlesnake
00:58:42forced a team
00:58:43with arch nemesis
00:58:44The Rock.
00:58:45They'll take on
00:58:46The Undertaker
00:58:47in Triple H.
00:58:48It happens on
00:58:49WWF Smackdown
00:58:50tonight.
00:58:53We're back with
00:58:54WWF Smackdown
00:58:55on UPM
00:58:56and folks
00:58:57just a few moments ago
00:58:58X-Pac and Kane
00:58:59retained the WWF
00:59:00tag team title.
00:59:01Well Lady Luck
00:59:02was on the side
00:59:03of the defending champions
00:59:04as you see
00:59:05Mr. Ass
00:59:06trying to impress
00:59:07X-Pac.
00:59:08Watch Road Dogg
00:59:09knocked into
00:59:10Mr. Ass' leg.
00:59:11X-Pac comes down
00:59:12on top of the pile
00:59:13and gets the three count.
00:59:14X-Pac and Kane
00:59:15still your
00:59:16WWF tag team champions.
00:59:18And this is now live.
00:59:21No I don't.
00:59:22No I don't.
00:59:23Billy there'll be
00:59:24other matches.
00:59:25No there won't.
00:59:26I can guarantee
00:59:27there's not gonna be
00:59:28another one with you.
00:59:29I can assure you of that.
00:59:30Yeah this match
00:59:31is not yet even.
00:59:32I guess we won't
00:59:33have another chance
00:59:34Adam.
00:59:36Ladies and gentlemen
00:59:38The Brood.
00:59:56They're a tremendous trio.
00:59:59Gangrel in the middle
01:00:00Edge on his right
01:00:01Christian on his left
01:00:03The Brood
01:00:04They were members
01:00:05of the Undertaker's ministry
01:00:07but they rebelled
01:00:08and Jim I understand
01:00:09that The Brood
01:00:10may finally break
01:00:11their silence
01:00:12right here tonight
01:00:13on SmackDown.
01:00:14That's right
01:00:15we have seen The Brood
01:00:16and the WWF
01:00:17quite some time now
01:00:18but they have never
01:00:19really spoken
01:00:20never told us anything
01:00:21about themselves.
01:00:22They have gained
01:00:23a cult following
01:00:24and I'll say this
01:00:25their gothic lifestyle
01:00:26attracts most of the attention
01:00:27but I firmly believe
01:00:28that these men
01:00:29are the three
01:00:30brightest young talents
01:00:31in this sport.
01:00:35You see Gangrel
01:00:36carrying
01:00:39that glass of
01:00:40red liquid
01:00:43and this usually
01:00:44the pre-match
01:00:45ritual
01:00:46that The Brood
01:00:47conducts.
01:00:48Well it's a psychological
01:00:49ritual that he
01:00:50drinks that
01:00:51red liquid
01:00:52from that chalice
01:00:53and sprays it out
01:00:54over the crowd.
01:00:56Now Gendricks
01:00:57will do the interview.
01:00:58Gangrel
01:00:59the fans have waited
01:01:00for what seems like
01:01:01an eternity for The Brood
01:01:02to finally break
01:01:03their silence.
01:01:04Center stage
01:01:05is yours.
01:01:06The Brood
01:01:07initially has not
01:01:08spoken by our own
01:01:09choice
01:01:10and then later
01:01:11it was forbidden
01:01:13by The Undertaker.
01:01:15Well when The Brood
01:01:16entered this world
01:01:17we craved the guidance
01:01:19that guiding light
01:01:20to show us the way
01:01:22and that was
01:01:23The Undertaker.
01:01:24Well unfortunately
01:01:26The Undertaker's
01:01:27thoughts
01:01:28and feelings
01:01:29were not the same
01:01:30as ours.
01:01:32We're in the darkness
01:01:33we seek
01:01:34a much different light.
01:01:36We live our
01:01:37collective lifestyles
01:01:38for who we are
01:01:39and what we believe in.
01:01:41It is a search
01:01:44of the mystery
01:01:45of life
01:01:46and the hereafter
01:01:48and the power
01:01:49is what we seek
01:01:51and it's within
01:01:52all of us
01:01:53and we just have
01:01:54to unleash it.
01:01:56Well with all due
01:01:57respect
01:01:58some say
01:01:59some say
01:02:00they don't understand
01:02:01your lifestyle
01:02:02and others
01:02:03others quite frankly
01:02:04think The Brood
01:02:05are basically
01:02:06off the charts.
01:02:14They will understand.
01:02:18Understanding
01:02:19is just a matter
01:02:20of time.
01:02:22The power
01:02:23lies within us
01:02:25and it's up to us
01:02:26to find it.
01:02:29We are who we are
01:02:31the unholy trio
01:02:34and we will become
01:02:36what we will become.
01:02:40For those who believe
01:02:42we'll follow
01:02:44for those that don't
01:02:46we'll merely exist.
01:02:48So Doc
01:02:50I suggest
01:02:52that you beware
01:02:54take care
01:02:56because the freaks
01:02:57come out
01:02:59at night.
01:03:02Look look look
01:03:04I don't know
01:03:06what y'all are smoking
01:03:08but if you ask me
01:03:10seriously
01:03:11it's nothing but a gimmick
01:03:12you're just trying to get attention
01:03:13on yourselves.
01:03:16A gimmick Doc?
01:03:18Is that what you see?
01:03:20Well we don't care
01:03:21what you think
01:03:23we know who we are
01:03:24and what we're capable of.
01:03:27You seem
01:03:28to be the one
01:03:29that's confused.
01:03:31Isn't that right
01:03:32Michael?
01:03:34Oh Doc Hendricks
01:03:35Wait a minute!
01:03:36Doc Hendricks
01:03:37at one time known as
01:03:38Michael P.S. Hayes
01:03:39a member of the legendary
01:03:40Fabulous Freebirds
01:03:41team in the 80's
01:03:42and they have
01:03:43he has just been attacked
01:03:45evidently by The Brute.
01:03:46The Brute just attacked
01:03:47Doc Hendricks
01:03:49and he can't see anything
01:03:50that's going on.
01:03:52All I know is they called him
01:03:53by his real name
01:03:54and then suddenly
01:03:55the lights went out
01:03:56and...
01:03:59Oh my God!
01:04:00Doc Hendricks
01:04:01the victim of another
01:04:02Brute bloodbath.
01:04:04That's that psychological
01:04:05tactic that The Brute
01:04:06uses against their opponents
01:04:07they surprise him
01:04:09and then
01:04:10give him a bloodbath.
01:04:12The bloodbath
01:04:13is nothing but
01:04:14intimidation from The Brute
01:04:15and Doc Hendricks
01:04:16has now suffered it.
01:04:18Where you at?
01:04:19Come on you chicken!
01:04:20Come on X-Pac
01:04:21where you at?
01:04:23Ken Shamrock

01:04:25The Acolytes
01:04:26in a no holds barred
01:04:27street fight.
01:04:28Certainly has been a long
01:04:29week for you
01:04:30courtesy of The Acolytes.
01:04:31It was last Monday
01:04:32on RAW
01:04:33where you came down
01:04:34to the ring
01:04:35preparing to meet Bradshaw
01:04:36wielding the same bat
01:04:37that Bradshaw
01:04:38victimized you
01:04:39just the night before
01:04:40at Backlash.
01:04:41When it turned into
01:04:42another opportunity
01:04:43for premeditated assault
01:04:44by The Acolytes
01:04:45the damage was done
01:04:46the scars may not
01:04:47have healed
01:04:48but tonight
01:04:49you step into battle
01:04:50nonetheless with Bradshaw

01:04:53That's right.
01:04:54Bradshaw has been
01:04:55a pain in my backside.
01:04:57You cost me that match
01:04:58against Undertaker
01:04:59Bradshaw
01:05:00and tonight
01:05:01you will pay for that.
01:05:03Street fight rules

01:05:05I was born on the street
01:05:06I was raised

01:05:12one thing
01:05:13I'm going to break
01:05:14your arms

01:05:25beat you some more
01:05:26So are you willing
01:05:27to lay it on the line?
01:05:28I am.
01:05:29I'll see you

01:05:52And here comes Shamrock, from behind,
01:05:54and this thing's started.
01:05:55No holds barred street fight.
01:05:57That's right, let's get right down to it.
01:05:59You're not gonna see any of Shamrock's
01:06:00beautiful technique or submission wrestling.
01:06:03It's gonna be all raw emotion,
01:06:05and it's gonna be a brawl because anything goes,
01:06:07anything's legal, may the best man win.
01:06:09Shamrock into those steel stairs.
01:06:13It's Bradshaw from the Acolytes,
01:06:15part of the Ministry of Darkness
01:06:16against the world's most dangerous man, Ken Shamrock.
01:06:19The ultimate fighting champion,
01:06:21a champion here as well in the WWF.
01:06:24Ken Shamrock, no stranger to no holds barred competition.
01:06:27He has fought every kind of hand-to-hand combat
01:06:30there is to fight, including the UFC,
01:06:32and he has dominated all of them.
01:06:35Bradshaw now, the 300 pounder with Shamrock.
01:06:37Great fall away slam that time by Bradshaw.
01:06:40Rules are simple in this type of matchup.
01:06:42There are none.
01:06:43That's right.
01:06:44That's the rules.
01:06:45Here's Bradshaw, first cover of the match.
01:06:46Hooks the leg, and a kick out by Ken Shamrock.
01:06:49Boy, I'll tell you, as wild as this one is gonna be,
01:06:52I can't wait to see how wild that tag team match
01:06:54is gonna get just a little bit later on tonight
01:06:56when Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock
01:06:58will team up for the first time ever
01:07:00to face Triple H and The Undertaker.
01:07:04Shot blocked that time by Shamrock
01:07:06to knock the big man Bradshaw down.
01:07:07And look at Shamrock now, up over the top,
01:07:09hooks the leg, goes for the cover.
01:07:10Now he's going for the, look at this.
01:07:12Wait a minute, we will maybe see a submission
01:07:14in a street fight.
01:07:15Bradshaw's in trouble.
01:07:17Good heavens, Bradshaw can't get away from it.
01:07:19Shamrock has that crossed leg breaker just anchored down,
01:07:23and he's trying to hook the ankle,
01:07:24and Bradshaw's doing everything he can
01:07:26to score him out of the way.
01:07:27But Bradshaw's in the middle of the ring.
01:07:28He needs to make it to the ropes, folks.
01:07:29Hammering away now.
01:07:31Keep in mind, no holds barred.
01:07:32This is a street fight.
01:07:34Bradshaw on the ropes.
01:07:35Bradshaw had two choices there, folks.
01:07:37Crawl out of that ring or get his leg broken.
01:07:39And he chose the former.
01:07:41Wait a minute, they're getting a little close
01:07:43over here, Michael.
01:07:45This is Bradshaw's a wild man himself.
01:07:47He'll take 10 shots and throw 50 just to land five.
01:07:51He'll go head first and keep on coming.
01:07:53And Shamrock is meeting him every step of the way.
01:07:55Shamrock with a right hand now to Bradshaw.
01:07:57Look out, Bradshaw going into the bell table.
01:07:59Oh my.
01:08:00Hit your feet, Michael.
01:08:02Bradshaw into the bell table,
01:08:03and Shamrock hammering away
01:08:05in this no holds barred street fight.
01:08:07Well, this whole thing started
01:08:08when Ken Shamrock sided with Vince McMahon
01:08:10against the Ministry.
01:08:11Shamrock was even the one who rescued Stephanie
01:08:13at one point from the clutches of The Undertaker.
01:08:16And it was Shamrock's sister, Ryan,
01:08:18who was abducted by The Undertaker.
01:08:20And Shamrock now has that baseball bat.
01:08:22Wait a minute, he's got the bat.
01:08:23Get out of my way, Michael.
01:08:24Oh, man.
01:08:29Bradshaw out of the way.
01:08:30Bradshaw now tossing Shamrock back into the ring.
01:08:33Somebody grab that bat.
01:08:34Grab the, no.
01:08:35But Bradshaw's got it now.
01:08:37Bradshaw now has that baseball bat.
01:08:40Oh, into the gut of Shamrock.
01:08:43And across the back.
01:08:44I don't care how mean you are.
01:08:45I don't care how tough you are.
01:08:48There is no way that you're gonna stand up
01:08:49to an assault with a baseball bat.
01:08:52Good Lord, they've cleared everything
01:08:54out over here at ringside.
01:08:56This isn't normal.
01:08:57WWF rules.
01:08:58Another chop block by Ken Shamrock
01:09:00to once again, knock Bradshaw off his feet.
01:09:04Well, now, oh my.
01:09:05Now, Shamrock has the back pocket.
01:09:08He swung and he hit Bradshaw right in the stomach
01:09:10and right in the head.
01:09:12Bat to the head.
01:09:13Shamrock to Bradshaw.
01:09:15And Shamrock now the world's most dangerous man.
01:09:18Proving why.
01:09:20Well, now he's trying to choke the breath
01:09:22out of Bradshaw with that baseball bat.
01:09:24It's a tribute to Bradshaw
01:09:26that he is still able to stand on his feet
01:09:28after getting whacked with that baseball bat twice.
01:09:30And now Shamrock, look, he's got him trapped.
01:09:32He's trying to choke him out.
01:09:33He's got the carotid arteries
01:09:35on either side of the neck compressed.
01:09:36And he's using that bat as a point of leverage.
01:09:38And Jim, look at how red the face is of Bradshaw.
01:09:42Bradshaw struggling for air.
01:09:43Struggling for breath there.
01:09:44He's not gonna give up though.
01:09:46This could be a choke out.
01:09:48If Shamrock could keep that clamped on long enough,
01:09:51Bradshaw's not, he's not gonna get enough blood
01:09:52to his brain.
01:09:53He's gonna pass out.
01:09:54Keep in mind, no holds barred folks.
01:09:55There's basically no rules.
01:09:57This is a street fight.
01:09:59Bradshaw grabbing the referee, Tim White.
01:10:02Bradshaw trying to reach for anything he can at this.
01:10:04Oh, that's it.
01:10:05That's it.
01:10:06Shamrock has choked out Bradshaw.
01:10:08The referee calls for the bell.
01:10:10And the winner of the one most angriest man,
01:10:13Ken Shamrock.
01:10:15Referee, Tim White, he had no chance.
01:10:17He had no choice to stop that thing
01:10:19or else Bradshaw could be seriously injured.
01:10:22Permanently injured.
01:10:24Well, he can't get Shamrock off Bradshaw now.
01:10:26We've seen the look in the eyes like this
01:10:27of Shamrock before.
01:10:29When Shamrock snapped, he's uncontrollable.
01:10:31And here now the officials are out.
01:10:33Four officials and agents now trying,
01:10:35trying desperately to get Shamrock off Bradshaw.
01:10:38He's choked out Bradshaw.
01:10:40He's got that bad after everybody.
01:10:42Oh my God, there's Sergeant Slaughter.
01:10:45Slaughter and Shamrock has got nuts.
01:10:48He's snapped.
01:10:49Shamrock has snapped on Sergeant Slaughter.
01:10:51Oh God, this is mayhem.
01:10:54It's just, it's unadulterated mayhem
01:10:56and nobody can come near Ken Shamrock.
01:10:58Shamrock has snapped.
01:11:00Meanwhile, Kevin Kelly's in the boiler room with Mankind.
01:11:04Mankind tonight here on SmackDown.
01:11:06They renew an old rivalry against the Big Boss Man.
01:11:08You know, Kevin, as I was sitting in this boiler room,
01:11:11I suddenly had the feeling,
01:11:13doggone it, why don't we just call off the whole thing
01:11:16for forgive and forget.
01:11:18Let bygones be forgotten.
01:11:19Then I realized if I were to do that,
01:11:21I'd be out of a job
01:11:23and UPN would be out one sports entertainment spectacular.
01:11:27So for those of you who don't know me,
01:11:29let me explain myself.
01:11:31I sit in boiler rooms because I enjoy the ambiance.
01:11:35I wear a sweaty leather mask
01:11:37because it helps me sell little dolls.
01:11:39I wear a shirt and tie because it looks so damn good
01:11:43and I will shove this rancid sock
01:11:46that looks a lot like me
01:11:48down the gullet of the Boss Man
01:11:50because I can
01:11:52and because the fans seem to enjoy it quite a bit.
01:11:55Have a nice day.
01:11:56Xbox, you can't hide from me forever.
01:11:59Xbox, get out of here, this is ridiculous.
01:12:02Man, what a whiner.
01:12:05Tonight, The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin
01:12:08will feel the wrath of the most omnipotent force
01:12:11ever created here in the World Wrestling Federation,
01:12:14the Corporate Ministry.
01:12:16Yeah, created by me.
01:12:18And here comes the Corporate Team's enforcer,
01:12:24the Boss Man, it's Shane McMahon.
01:12:27The Corporate Ministry is in a union with The Undertaker.
01:12:32Well, that remains to be seen.
01:12:35There's so many questions that remain to be answered.
01:12:37I just cannot understand how Shane McMahon
01:12:39can coexist with a man like The Undertaker
01:12:42after what's going on,
01:12:43the terrorization of the McMahon family.
01:12:45Mitch McMahon and his daughter, Stephanie,
01:12:48apparently left the building a little bit ago.
01:12:57Well, folks, here he comes,
01:12:59the most durable, the most indestructible,
01:13:01the most unique and the most likable superstar
01:13:05in this business, there will never be another Mick Foley,
01:13:07but Michael, this was not finished yet.
01:13:10And here we go now, the Big Boss Man,
01:13:11the Corporate Team's enforcer, hammering away on Mankind.
01:13:16Mankind gives his heart, his body, his soul,
01:13:18seems to be impervious to pain.
01:13:22You know, and that's what's scary, Michael,
01:13:23because he's not impervious to it,
01:13:24he feels it just like anybody else does,
01:13:26but he disregards it and he gets past it and he goes on.
01:13:31Oh my, double arm DDT by Mankind,
01:13:35the former WWF champion.
01:13:37And he's calling for Mr. Socko,
01:13:39and folks, if you don't know the story on Socko,
01:13:42I doubt we got time to tell you.
01:13:43Mr. Socko now on the hand of Mankind,
01:13:46and Boss Man wants no part of that sock.
01:13:49You know what, get that thing off your head.
01:13:51Wait a minute, from behind, it's Test.
01:13:54Test tosses Boss Man back in the ring.
01:13:57Well, the problem between Test and the Boss Man,
01:13:59we've seen him rolls him over in a kick out after two.
01:14:02Didn't know that Test was a friend of Mankind's,
01:14:04don't think Mankind knew as well.
01:14:06Perhaps he isn't, perhaps it's just they have one thing,
01:14:08one thing on their plate, a corporate agenda.
01:14:11Boss Man now hammering away, right hand to Mankind.
01:14:15Nobody home, Boss Man over the top rope.
01:14:18We saw that at Backlash,
01:14:19after Mankind had won the Boiler Room Brawl.
01:14:22Wait a minute, look who's on his way down.
01:14:24Boss Man's the guy that attacked Mankind,
01:14:26and there's Paul Wight.
01:14:28Big show, he's the guy that Mankind
01:14:30was in the Boiler Room Brawl with.
01:14:32And the big show now, Boss Man,
01:14:34gonna go in the hard way, over the top rope.
01:14:37And look at this now,
01:14:40Sacco, Sacco shoved in the throat,
01:14:43the vulnerable claw of Boss Man.
01:14:45Here is your winner, Mankind.
01:14:53Can you believe the big show
01:14:54playing the part of a bouncer,
01:14:56when Boss Man was about to take off,
01:14:58he pressed him over his head, 325 pounds,
01:15:01threw him back in the ring, that was it.
01:15:03And speaking of playing the part of bouncers,
01:15:06what about Miley Cruz, former bodyguard,
01:15:08Tess coming down and tossing Boss Man back in the ring.
01:15:12Big show, Tess, Mankind,
01:15:14perhaps unified with a corporate agenda.
01:15:17Sending a message to Shane McMahon now,
01:15:19corporate ministry.
01:15:21I'll tell you folks, you talk about
01:15:22the corporate ministry,
01:15:23it looks like there's some rumblings.
01:15:25It looks like there's some alliances being forged.
01:15:27Wait a minute, look,
01:15:29Billy Gunn and his friend, X-Pac.
01:15:32Billy Gunn still upset.
01:15:34And there's Kane, X-Pac's partner.
01:15:37You do what you want,
01:15:38but I ain't through with you guys yet.
01:15:40Billy Gunn upset still,
01:15:41and he lost a tag team championship match tonight,
01:15:44to Kane and X-Pac.
01:15:47And there's The Rock.
01:15:48The Rock, the people's champion,
01:15:50on his way to the arena.
01:15:52The Rock, and perhaps the greatest
01:15:54WWF tag team match in history.
01:15:57Coming up next, The Rock teams with Stone Cold
01:16:00to take on Triple H and The Undertaker.
01:16:03It's up next on SmackDown.
01:16:07♪♪
01:16:12♪♪ No chance of that's what you got. ♪♪
01:16:15♪♪
01:16:18♪♪ Whoop against a machine too strong. ♪♪
01:16:20♪♪ Crazy politicians...
01:16:22There's Triple H in China,
01:16:23holding the mainstream posse.
01:16:25The tag team competition is taking a 4-to-1 fall.
01:16:28Picking his winner in a company fight
01:16:30tonight, under the war of Kona,
01:16:33by Travis Kane.
01:16:35Weighing in at 211 pounds,
01:16:38Triple H.
01:16:39As we get set for perhaps the greatest
01:16:41tag team match in the history of the WWF,
01:16:45where is Shane McMahon?
01:16:46Well, that's a very good question.
01:16:48His buddies are here,
01:16:49but we don't see the head honcho.
01:16:52But we are gonna see four of the most diverse
01:16:54personalities ever to engage in a tag team match
01:16:57right here tonight, Michael.
01:16:58But will it turn into every man for himself?
01:17:00Or is it some kind of plot, or set up, or trap?
01:17:04These guys just cannot get along.
01:17:07♪♪
01:17:10♪♪
01:17:13♪♪
01:17:16♪♪
01:17:19♪♪
01:17:22And his tag team partner,
01:17:25being accompanied by Paul Bearer.
01:17:27Oh, Lord.
01:17:28Weighing in at 326 pounds,
01:17:31The Undertaker.
01:17:33I never thought I would see Shane McMahon
01:17:36and The Undertaker shoulder to shoulder.
01:17:38And apparently, Jim, we have seen the forming
01:17:43of an unholy alliance right here tonight on SmackDown.
01:17:47And they are in cahoots.
01:17:48And The Undertaker, who organized the Ministry of Darkness,
01:17:51who terrorized Vince McMahon's family
01:17:54and attempted to control the WWF by extortion,
01:17:58has now joined forces with Shane's corporation
01:18:01to form the Corporate Ministry.
01:18:04Shane McMahon is deemed as such
01:18:06the Corporate Ministry.
01:18:09The Undertaker and Shane McMahon,
01:18:13the son of Vince McMahon,
01:18:15who's run this company for two decades.
01:18:17And what have we seen formed here?
01:18:20Do you smell what The Rock has put in?
01:18:22♪♪
01:18:26And their opponent,
01:18:28sporting from Miami, Florida,
01:18:30weighing in at 275 pounds,
01:18:34The Rock!
01:18:38The Rock, former WWF champion,
01:18:42who was kicked out of the corporation
01:18:44this past Monday night on Raw
01:18:46because Shane McMahon said The Rock failed him
01:18:49in his battle against Austin at Backlash
01:18:52this past Sunday night.
01:18:53Well, let's not forget,
01:18:54he was kicked out of the corporation
01:18:56after he basically told Shane McMahon
01:18:58every name in the book.
01:18:59It was a pretty good bet.
01:19:00He was fixed to quit.
01:19:03The Undertaker and Triple H,
01:19:05apparently their only bond,
01:19:07their only link being Shane McMahon.
01:19:09They're cornering The Rock,
01:19:10and he slips out from the middle of him.
01:19:14Get him!
01:19:16And The Rock now hammering away on Triple H.
01:19:18And right now, folks, we've got a two-on-one.
01:19:21The Rock's partner Stone Cold Steve Austin,
01:19:23but the Rattlesnake is nowhere to be found.
01:19:26♪♪
01:19:33And look out!
01:19:34Here comes the Calvary!
01:19:35The Texas Rattlesnake taking it out on Triple H!
01:19:40The WWF champion!
01:19:44Inside the ring, The Rock is cooking!
01:19:47On The Undertaker, outside the ring,
01:19:49Stone Cold is all over Triple H,
01:19:53and we have got pandemonium everywhere here on SmackDown!
01:19:57In the ring, The Undertaker just leveled The Rock.
01:19:59Austin now inside, and Austin going for the Phenom.
01:20:02And the Phenom with the right hand
01:20:04to Stone Cold Steve Austin.
01:20:06And another one from the seven-footer.
01:20:09The Undertaker is evil.
01:20:10He's a changed man.
01:20:12He's demonic, and tonight he's formed an allegiance
01:20:14with Shane McMahon, the corporate ministry.
01:20:17And here's Austin, loose as prey,
01:20:19and Austin hammering away on The Undertaker.
01:20:21And look at him on The Undertaker.
01:20:23Austin in tow, trying to be a sadistic to The Undertaker
01:20:26as The Undertaker was sadistic to Austin.
01:20:28He's covered out, and Triple H makes the save after two.
01:20:31Boy, I'll tell you what, we have got mayhem,
01:20:33and if you look outside the ring,
01:20:35we've got enough supporting cast of characters
01:20:37to have a full-scale street riot.
01:20:39But, Jim, if Stone Cold and The Rock can work together,
01:20:42they may be the only two guys in the WWF
01:20:45who can pull it off going through this corporate ministry.
01:20:48Good Lord, Austin sagged in the corner,
01:20:50and he comes right back out fighting this.
01:20:52There is no quit in the Rattlesnake.
01:20:55And I'll tell you very seriously,
01:20:56if you will see Stone Cold Steve Austin
01:20:58tag The Rock into this match.
01:21:01Stone Cold now kicked to the midsection,
01:21:02whipped for the stunner, Triple H countered.
01:21:04He caught him with a knee to the face.
01:21:07Triple H and The Undertaker on one side,
01:21:10Austin and The Rock on the other.
01:21:12You see Shane McMahon trying to meet free posse
01:21:15outside the ring, tearing on Triple H,
01:21:17who missed with the knee.
01:21:19You never thought it would be possible.
01:21:20I don't even know if Vince McMahon himself
01:21:23could have made this merger come about.
01:21:25What can Vince McMahon and Stephanie McMahon
01:21:27be thinking as Triple H now goes for the cover,
01:21:30and Austin gets the shoulder up.
01:21:31Do you suppose they are at home now?
01:21:33Do you suppose that they know anything about this?
01:21:36Do you suppose that they could grasp that Vince's son,
01:21:40that Stephanie's brother, could do something like this
01:21:43and stab the whole family in the back?
01:21:44For weeks, The Undertaker played mind games,
01:21:47psychological warfare on Vince McMahon and Stephanie.
01:21:50And tonight, tonight, an allegiance apparently
01:21:53has been formed with Vince McMahon's son, his only son,
01:21:57the heir apparent to the throne, Shane McMahon.
01:22:01And in this case, Michael, I would have to say
01:22:03that the sins of the son will be paid back by the father
01:22:08somehow, Vince McMahon has never stood
01:22:11for something like this to go on.
01:22:13This capacity crowd comes to life,
01:22:15stone cold now, hammering back, back on Triple H.
01:22:19Off the second rope, Austin now,
01:22:21the rattlesnake on the attack.
01:22:23And he caught him, sledgehammer to the face.
01:22:28And here comes The Rock, and so far,
01:22:30Austin and The Rock working as a unit.
01:22:32A hard tag from the people's champ.
01:22:35Can you believe they made that tag?
01:22:36Anybody who's seen Austin and Rock's wars
01:22:39at WrestleMania and Backlash know
01:22:41they got no love for each other.
01:22:42The only thing they have in common
01:22:44is a dislike for Shane McMahon.
01:22:46Austin and Rock didn't want to be partners.
01:22:48They were forced to disown Shane McMahon.
01:22:50And now Rock, the three-generation athlete
01:22:53in the WWF hair-in-the-way of The Phenom.
01:22:56Well, I'll tell you, while Rock's a college man
01:22:58through and through, Austin is redneck as redneck can be.
01:23:02And they do make an unlikely pair.
01:23:03Cover by The Phenom now, there's two,
01:23:05and Rock gets his left shoulder up.
01:23:07They didn't choose this situation, Michael.
01:23:09Let's make that clear to everybody.
01:23:11Stone Cold nor The Rock chose this.
01:23:13They were forced together by Shane McMahon
01:23:17as a slap in the face, as an embarrassment.
01:23:19The Undertaker and Triple H not forced together.
01:23:22They're part of this whole corporate merger.
01:23:24The corporate team in the ministry,
01:23:26and The Rock planted The Undertaker.
01:23:28Hook of the leg now, there's one, two, and again,
01:23:31Triple H makes the save.
01:23:33How long do you think this has gone on?
01:23:36How long do you think that Shane McMahon
01:23:37and The Undertaker have been on speaking terms,
01:23:40even much less in cahoots?
01:23:42Shane McMahon cheering on The Undertaker,
01:23:44and here comes the Brahma Bull,
01:23:46the 275-pounder whipped into the ropes now.
01:23:49Undertaker misses with a clothesline,
01:23:51and both men knock each other down.
01:23:53The Rock, charismatic, electrifying.
01:23:56We've said it, a three-time WWF champion,
01:23:58unprecedented for a man his age.
01:24:00His best years are still ahead of him,
01:24:02and the ones he had are pretty darn good.
01:24:04And don't forget The Undertaker,
01:24:06one of the most spectacular athletes,
01:24:07The Phenom, in the history of the WWF.
01:24:10From the dark side, he's made a demonic turn.
01:24:14And listen to the crowd.
01:24:16Can you believe it?
01:24:18They are so firmly behind The Rock.
01:24:20Rock now whipped into the corner by The Phenom.
01:24:22Undertaker misses, Rock counters,
01:24:24Rock Bottom, Rock Bottom, Triple H.
01:24:27And here's Austin now.
01:24:29Austin with right hands to Triple H,
01:24:31and all four men going at it.
01:24:33Well, that's all that took to light this one on fire.
01:24:36This is like walking through
01:24:37hell with gasoline wrenches on.
01:24:39Here comes the rest of the corporate ministry.
01:24:41Boss Man, Acolytes, Viscera, Midian.
01:24:44God, how many of them are there?
01:24:48How many of them are there on two men?
01:24:50Stone Cold Steve Austin.
01:24:51Wait a minute, wait a minute.
01:24:53It's Tess, it's Tess, it's Shambler, The Big Show.
01:24:59It is a street riot.
01:25:00Hey, Shane McMahon's coming over here behind us,
01:25:03holding up that chair.
01:25:04He's trying to run for cover.
01:25:05This thing is broken completely out of control.
01:25:08The Rock and Austin, Big Show, Tess, Shamrock
01:25:11have cleared the ring of the corporate ministry.
01:25:14Folks, I'll tell you what,
01:25:15the corporate ministry's not the only one
01:25:17that's got some backup.
01:25:18The Big Show, Stone Cold, The Rock, Tess,
01:25:21they're all standing tall.
01:25:23Look out now, Austin and Undertaker in the ring.
01:25:25Undertaker with a push to the face.
01:25:27Keep in mind, folks, the referee has called for the bell.
01:25:30This thing is spread all over the building.
01:25:32They're fighting in the crowd, they're fighting on the stage.
01:25:34And there's Shane McMahon with that metal folding chair.
01:25:37Wait a minute, Austin in trouble.
01:25:39What a counter by Austin.
01:25:42Undertaker, oh no, Austin could be planted here
01:25:45with a chokeslam, chokeslam.
01:25:51The Rock and Triple H have battled through the crowd.
01:25:53Wait a minute, Shane with a chair.
01:25:55Vince McMahon's here.
01:25:57Vince McMahon, Vince McMahon, Vince McMahon
01:26:00just cold cocked his son, Shane.
01:26:02Vince McMahon just knocked out his own son.
01:26:05The Undertaker with a chair.
01:26:07Vince McMahon has grabbed the chair.
01:26:09Vince is saving Austin.
01:26:12Vince McMahon has sacrificed himself for Austin,
01:26:15returning Austin's favor for Raw.
01:26:18My God, my God, that's the ultimate sacrifice.
01:26:22Vince McMahon is unconscious.
01:26:24Did you hear the impact,
01:26:25the concussion of his head on that chair?
01:26:28The Undertaker standing over the fallen Vince McMahon.
01:26:32Vince McMahon has sacrificed himself for Stone Cold.
01:26:35The Undertaker standing over Vince McMahon.
01:26:40That sound, Michael, it could have been his head
01:26:43as well as the chair.
01:26:44Wait a minute, Stunner, Stunner.
01:26:49Austin has stung the feet off.
01:26:51Stone Cold has stung the feet off.
01:26:54And now look at Shane, Shane hammering away
01:26:56on an unconscious Vince McMahon.
01:26:58Damn it, that's Shane's father.
01:27:00Shane McMahon has attacked his own father
01:27:03while his father is unconscious.
01:27:05Wait a minute, the Rattlesnake.
01:27:10Take a look at your surroundings, Shane.
01:27:14And your backup is gone, pal.
01:27:17The corporate ministry stock is about to go way down.
01:27:21Stone Cold, Stone Cold.
01:27:24Stone Cold returns the favor to Vince McMahon.
01:27:28My God, Michael, this is the wildest thing I've ever seen.
01:27:32Both McMahons are laid out in the middle of the ring.
01:27:35Shane McMahon at the hands of Steve Austin.
01:27:37Vince McMahon at the hands of The Undertaker.
01:27:40And Stone Cold is standing above him.
01:27:43Stone Cold with a toast for good measure.
01:27:47The Rattlesnake, the Rattlesnake
01:27:51has stung the head of this new corporate ministry.
01:27:57But Vince McMahon is still out cold
01:27:59after that sickening punch of the chair by The Undertaker.
01:28:03I am seriously concerned that Vince McMahon
01:28:06has been critically injured.
01:28:07The sound of that chair smacking off his skull was sickening.
01:28:13Stone Cold, Steve Austin, the WWF champion.
01:28:18This is far from over.
01:28:20Shane McMahon and The Undertaker
01:28:22have apparently, apparently formed an unholy alliance.
01:28:27It's the corporate ministry, the corporate ministry.
01:28:30Shane McMahon and The Undertaker.
01:28:33How far will Shane McMahon and The Phenom go?
