00:02:10And now, Luggs presents WWF Ventures.
00:02:14♪
00:02:24♪
00:02:34San Diego Sports Arena is absolutely sold out.
00:02:38And please, turn away.
00:02:40As tonight, we will crown an undisputed champion.
00:02:45And tonight, it will be one of four men.
00:02:48John Cole, The Rock, Max and Jay, or Kurt Angle,
00:02:52that will make their mark on the great big legacy
00:02:55and will never be tarnished
00:02:57as the first undisputed champion in this business.
00:03:01Everybody, I'm Jim Ross, alongside The King,
00:03:04and we are here at ringside.
00:03:06Whoa.
00:03:09Ladies and gentlemen,
00:03:16the chairman of the World Wrestling Federation,
00:03:20Mr. McMahon.
00:03:23And King, it would seem that Mr. McMahon
00:03:26is not his normal, jovial self
00:03:29when he's getting his little pointed head
00:03:31stuck so far in Ravici's backside.
00:03:33It was like a backhoe to get it out.
00:03:35Wait a minute, JR.
00:03:36You know, this is gonna be a historic night.
00:03:38Don't get started off on the wrong foot.
00:03:40Don't make that man angry.
00:03:41He goes around reminding elephants
00:03:43of things they've forgotten.
00:03:44He will not forget what happened to him last week.
00:03:46Believe me, JR.
00:03:48It was a night on SmackDown
00:03:50that Mr. McMahon will never forget.
00:03:53If he lives to be 100,
00:03:54and he probably will, quite frankly.
00:03:58I heard he watched this.
00:03:59He actually had to resort to watching his face
00:04:01with gasoline.
00:04:10That fan turned like he got what he deserved.
00:04:13Just for the record,
00:04:18last Thursday night.
00:04:22Oh, please, show this man some respect.
00:04:23He's been through so much, JR.
00:04:27Do you know how many facials
00:04:28he had to have since last Thursday?
00:04:30Skin exfoliated?
00:04:31Just for the record,
00:04:32last Thursday night,
00:04:33as I stood in this ring,
00:04:35I wasn't about to kiss anybody's ass.
00:04:41He's a billionaire, JR.
00:04:42He doesn't have to.
00:04:43There's no one man
00:04:44big enough or bad enough
00:04:47to make me kiss anybody's ass.
00:04:50That's right.
00:04:51No man.
00:04:54I was in this ring about ready
00:04:57to take care of business,
00:04:59and what happened?
00:05:02Don't start that.
00:05:03And what happened?
00:05:05Oh, JR, can you stop him?
00:05:07Stone Cold Steve Austin
00:05:12shows up on the titantron,
00:05:16beat the hell out of Kurt Angle,
00:05:20and then threatened to beat me up
00:05:22if I left the ring.
00:05:26I don't think people hear.
00:05:28Then after that,
00:05:29my very own 50-50 partner,
00:05:32Ric Flair.
00:05:34Some partner.
00:05:35Ric Flair comes out to the stage,
00:05:38and Flair says,
00:05:40if any WWF superstars
00:05:43interferes in this proceeding,
00:05:45he would immediately suspend them.
00:05:48Some partner.
00:05:52And then it happened.
00:05:57Oh.
00:05:59Then The Rock took advantage of me.
00:06:04You know what they say.
00:06:05It happens.
00:06:08Rock shoved my face into Rikishi's ass.
00:06:12Oh, no!
00:06:14Deep into the ass.
00:06:15Hey, hey.
00:06:16Deep, deep, deep undercover.
00:06:17Hey!
00:06:18That was the most embarrassing,
00:06:20the most humiliating experience of my life.
00:06:23Not to mention suffocating.
00:06:26That's really saying something.
00:06:27And how did you people react?
00:06:33You laughed.
00:06:36Oh, they did.
00:06:37You laughed, JR, too.
00:06:38As if this was some sort of cartoon on television,
00:06:41some sort of comedy skit on mad TV,
00:06:45Saturday Night Live.
00:06:46You laughed.
00:06:49You laughed at me, Vince McMahon.
00:06:54Uh-oh.
00:06:57You don't laugh at the misfortunes of billionaires.
00:07:03Oh, wow.
00:07:04No fun humor in that.
00:07:06You laugh.
00:07:08Shut up.
00:07:09Oh, he means it.
00:07:12You laugh.
00:07:13You laugh when I tell you to laugh.
00:07:16That's when you laugh.
00:07:17There you go.
00:07:19And if you don't remember anything else
00:07:21for the rest of the night,
00:07:23then you must remember this.
00:07:26He who laughs last laughs loudest.
00:07:32Yeah!
00:07:33You remember that, don't you, JR?
00:07:35I'll try to keep that in mind.
00:07:37How'd it go?
00:07:38He who laughs last laughs the loudest.
00:07:41Wait a minute.
00:07:43And there's Mr. McMahon.
00:07:46And there's Mr. McMahon's business partner,
00:07:4950-50 partner, nature boy Ric Flair,
00:07:53who led a consortium to buy Shane and Stephanie's stock
00:07:57when they bought WCW and ECW.
00:08:01Ah, Flair was laughing last week, too.
00:08:05He's a 16-time world champion.
00:08:10Did I hear you say laugh last?
00:08:14Woo!
00:08:15Well, we all hope we've seen the last of you tonight
00:08:20because these people came to see
00:08:22a pay-per-view called Vengeance.
00:08:25And...
00:08:26Woo!
00:08:29And the show is about to start...
00:08:34right now.
00:08:37Woo!
00:08:39Turn it up!
00:08:41What?
00:08:42I think the nature boy is trying to listen to Mr. McMahon.
00:08:45I don't think Mr. McMahon was finished.
00:08:47What's the deal with this?
00:08:49Turn it up!
00:08:50How rude is that Flair?
00:08:51I mean, what kind of...
00:08:52Yeah, he was laughing.
00:08:54Mr. McMahon, he's pointing right at you, JR.
00:08:56Well, he ought to...
00:08:57He's got what he deserves.
00:08:58The Halloween Tag Team Conquest
00:08:59is scheduled for one fall.
00:09:01About to enter the ring
00:09:02at a combined weight of 565 pounds,
00:09:07Albert and Scotty 200!
00:09:10Well, the hip-hop hit ball
00:09:11is not making Mr. McMahon get into any better mood.
00:09:14What are they doing?
00:09:15The audacity!
00:09:16He's not some...
00:09:18rapper.
00:09:19Oh, you're bringing a cheer to the old glass eye, King.
00:09:22He's a millionaire!
00:09:23Well, one can't grieve forever.
00:09:25Look at these...
00:09:27Mr. McMahon is pretty fly for a white guy,
00:09:29but he's not gonna get down with those two idiots.
00:09:32He's fly for a white guy.
00:09:34Yeah!
00:09:35What the hell does that mean?
00:09:37JR, you're just not hip.
00:09:39I'm not.
00:09:40You need a hip replacement,
00:09:41but you're not hip.
00:09:42Look at the look on Mr. McMahon's face.
00:09:44He has not had a good week.
00:09:51This is a bonus match-up here at Vengeance.
00:09:54Weighing 282 pounds
00:09:57and 225 pounds,
00:10:00respectively,
00:10:01yes,
00:10:02and the World Wrestling Federation
00:10:04European Champion,
00:10:06Christian!
00:10:09Well, there's...
00:10:10Christian, you know...
00:10:12Uh-oh, look out.
00:10:13What are you...
00:10:14Uh-oh!
00:10:15Was that you that referred to Test as Horseface?
00:10:17Well, that was Scottie Tuhati, as a matter of fact.
00:10:19And Scottie Tuhati and Albert challenging
00:10:22Test,
00:10:23the homie Horseface,
00:10:24and Christian, the European Champion
00:10:26here in this tag team match-up.
00:10:28And certainly, both these teams
00:10:30have had a little...
00:10:31probably built a little bit of a rivalry
00:10:33as we have seen over the last couple of weeks of television.
00:10:36One would assume that the team that establishes
00:10:38the tag team league against Scott
00:10:40nearly early is gonna win this match-up.
00:10:42And for Scottie and Albert,
00:10:44who I think are underdogs in this match-up,
00:10:46they gotta avoid Test below right boot.
00:10:49And Scottie can't allow himself to get isolated.
00:10:53Well, here's your chance to, uh...
00:10:56get a little payback for this.
00:10:58Scottie Tuhati called you Horseface there, Test.
00:11:01Test won one year's immunity.
00:11:02There's a tag to Big Albert.
00:11:05He is a tag team partner of a different size.
00:11:07Test won immunity for one year of the Survivor Series,
00:11:10winning the immunity battle royal.
00:11:12And he took Scottie Tuhati's place
00:11:14after beating Scottie up in the locker room area.
00:11:18Oh, look at this.
00:11:19Hip-hop, hip-hop!
00:11:20Oh!
00:11:21That's 350 on you.
00:11:23And the European Champion comes in
00:11:25and makes sure that we didn't get three in the early going.
00:11:28Oh, watch yourself there.
00:11:29Christian!
00:11:31Ooh!
00:11:32A good old pipe face there to tag.
00:11:36Albert competing at one speed.
00:11:38Scottie quickens it when he comes in.
00:11:40There's a double team.
00:11:43Scottie Tuhati.
00:11:45And the referee putting Albert out.
00:11:47And Scottie gets hung up on that top rope
00:11:49and taken down hard and effectively with a clothesline.
00:11:54Scottie Tuhati and Albert, the hip-hop hippos.
00:11:59I just don't get it, JR.
00:12:00What are they trying to be here?
00:12:03I mean, are they trying to be...
00:12:04Fly?
00:12:05Yeah, are they?
00:12:06Are they?
00:12:07They need to get a name that would suit them.
00:12:09Have they thought about a name for the team there?
00:12:11I don't know.
00:12:12I'm privy to that.
00:12:13There's a right hand by Christian.
00:12:15Christian's the European Champion.
00:12:17I can think of some names for him.
00:12:19Oh, there's a lot of names for him.
00:12:20How about the Hunkadelics?
00:12:22That might work.
00:12:23That'd be great on a t-shirt.
00:12:25What about MC Crackers?
00:12:27MC Crackers?
00:12:28MC Crackers.
00:12:29There you go.
00:12:30Or maybe Run B and W.
00:12:33And a double team by Tess and Christian.
00:12:35Not too humorous for Scottie Tuhati.
00:12:37I got it.
00:12:38The one and final name.
00:12:39The Pasty Boys.
00:12:40The Pasty Boys.
00:12:41That's it.
00:12:44Certainly, Tess has been well-served by his winning the Immunity Battle Award
00:12:49at the Survivor Series last Thursday night on SmackDown.
00:12:52Tess with a straight boot right to the face of referee Earl Hebner.
00:12:56How nice would it be to know you couldn't get fired for at least a year?
00:13:00I've never experienced that emotion, so I can't tell you.
00:13:02You're asking the wrong guy.
00:13:04But what Tess did to Earl Hebner was, I thought, shocking and,
00:13:07quite frankly, reprehensible.
00:13:09Reprehensible?
00:13:11You're actually quite the opposite of the Tess situation, aren't you?
00:13:16I am.
00:13:17He can't be fired for a year.
00:13:21And Christian, well-placed.
00:13:23They got Scottie Tuhati in a big, bad corner.
00:13:27The corner of the opposition here.
00:13:28And that's a pretty good tag-team strategy, quite frankly.
00:13:30Yeah, but that's exactly what you said he needed to avoid.
00:13:32They are.
00:13:33Scottie being the smallest man physically in this match-up,
00:13:38certainly getting isolated.
00:13:39And look at Tess intimidating this referee, Teddy Long.
00:13:43You watch a lot of the Discovery Channel, that sort of stuff.
00:13:46That's what always happens, you know, in the out in the wild.
00:13:49You see that one little wildebeest or whatever, the smallest one,
00:13:52he gets isolated.
00:13:54Last shot.
00:13:55Away from the herd, next thing you know.
00:13:57Good straight martial arts kick there by Scottie Tuhati.
00:14:04The crowd here getting behind Scottie and Albert, it would seem.
00:14:09I'll tell you what, this match tonight,
00:14:10these three matches to determine the undisputed champion,
00:14:13we'll talk about the history of getting here.
00:14:16That began in 1905, more on that in this broadcast.
00:14:19And Albert got the tag.
00:14:21Oh, here's Albert with some more of that.
00:14:24Is Albert dry?
00:14:27Probably not.
00:14:28No.
00:14:34He moves that 350 around quite well.
00:14:36There's the former University of Pittsburgh offensive lineman
00:14:39as he takes down the European champion.
00:14:42And there's shades of Don Leo Jonathan.
00:14:44The giant swing.
00:14:48Where's he going?
00:14:50Boom.
00:14:51Not a good landing.
00:14:53First elbow.
00:14:54And Albert falling on top of Christian.
00:14:56Should be all.
00:14:57Christian got a shoulder up.
00:15:00And a clubbing blow to the back by Tess.
00:15:03And there's the double team now.
00:15:06Albert ran right through those two men.
00:15:08That's how you handle a double team.
00:15:10Yeah, when you're 6'8", 350, a lot of things change for you.
00:15:14And Albert maybe setting for the ball to Obama.
00:15:17Look out, Christian.
00:15:19Uh-oh.
00:15:20Uh-oh.
00:15:21And Tess pulling Albert down and out of the ring.
00:15:24As it looks like Albert's not ready to deliver the ball to Obama.
00:15:29Got him too hot.
00:15:30He staggers back to his feet.
00:15:33Wait a minute.
00:15:34Uh-oh.
00:15:35Scottie looking for the worm.
00:15:37Hey.
00:15:39Christian.
00:15:40He's gonna do it.
00:15:41Are you ready?
00:15:42W-O-R-E.
00:15:46Christian avoiding that big foot.
00:15:49Uh-oh.
00:15:50And look at the strength here of Albert.
00:15:53Albert right into the big foot of Tess.
00:15:55That big right boot.
00:15:58And it's over.
00:15:59No, it's not over.
00:16:00Scottie too hot.
00:16:01He interrupted the three count.
00:16:03As the three was, the hand was coming down for three.
00:16:05I thought that was definitely it.
00:16:07Look out.
00:16:08Oh, no.
00:16:09Christian elevated.
00:16:12Scottie now taking down Tess.
00:16:14And Scottie determined.
00:16:16And we're gonna see the worm here in Memphis.
00:16:18W-O-R-M.
00:16:22There we go.
00:16:23And this is pretty fun, JR.
00:16:25The flying worm.
00:16:31And here comes that Christian again.
00:16:33Trying to load out Scottie too hot.
00:16:35And there's the bottom bomb.
00:16:38A bottom bomb.
00:16:40Here are your winners, Albert and Scottie Q Hoodie.
00:16:48Well, the power of Albert with that ball no bomb.
00:16:55Albert will scrub that big boot.
00:17:00How did Albert get up from that?
00:17:01But somehow he did.
00:17:02But no matter this.
00:17:03When you call it the ball no bomb.
00:17:06This year, when you call it the ball no bomb.
00:17:10Follow up call from the big man.
00:17:120838.
00:17:13Along with Scottie Q Hoodie.
00:17:15Winning this tag team matchup here at Vengeance.
00:17:18On a night where an undisputed champion is going to be crowned.
00:17:22That's a happy hippo.
00:17:24William Regal, in just moments you face Edge for the Intercontinental title.
00:17:28Now, there is no dispute in your success over the last couple of weeks.
00:17:31However, your methods have been very questionable.
00:17:35Questionable?
00:17:37My methods questionable?
00:17:40People like you disgust me.
00:17:42You distrusting Americans.
00:17:44My methods aren't questionable.
00:17:46My methods are successful, Sunshine.
00:17:48Just as Edge is about to find out.
00:17:50I mean, Edge is an incredible athlete.
00:17:53I mean, a superstar here in the World Wrestling Federation.
00:17:56But has he ever faced anyone like myself?
00:17:58Someone who has been fighting for a living since he was 15 years of age.
00:18:02Someone who has fought some of the toughest men in the world and survived.
00:18:07For all Edge's attributes, he's made one big mistake.
00:18:11He's incurred my wrath.
00:18:13And when you incur my wrath, you'd be safer selling your soul to the devil.
00:18:17Just as he's going to find out when I take away his Intercontinental Championship.
00:18:24Silly pillock.
00:18:27You think you know me.
00:18:32Edge.
00:18:41Before we cut this into the part 1 fall,
00:18:44it's for the World Wrestling Federation Intercontinental Championship.
00:18:48Approaching the ring from Toronto, Canada.
00:18:51Weighing 240 pounds, the Intercontinental Champion, Edge.
00:18:57As Rob Zombie, Sinister Edge, brings Edge to the ring.
00:19:01Being the Intercontinental Champion who defeated Tess in the Survivor Series
00:19:05to unify both the Intercontinental and U.S. titles.
00:19:09He's a three-time king, Intercontinental Champion.
00:19:12Wow.
00:19:13But would you say that vengeance is being presented here live
00:19:16on the Sold Out San Diego Sports Arena
00:19:18by Luggs, Boots, and Shoes.
00:19:21They're tough enough to handle anything.
00:19:31The challenger from Blackpool, England.
00:19:34Weighing 240 pounds, William Regal.
00:19:38You know, JR, I knew that about Jonathan Coachman.
00:19:41I've been knowing that a long time.
00:19:43What's that, kid?
00:19:44And he was a silly pillock.
00:19:45What the hell is a pillock?
00:19:47Oh, please, JR, please.
00:19:48Don't show your aches out here.
00:19:50Well, the Intercontinental title is going to be on the line here.
00:19:53Of course, William Regal, the charter member of the Vince McMahon
00:19:57Kiss My Ass Club, has never been the Intercontinental Champion.
00:20:01But Regal is deceivingly physical and very unorthodox.
00:20:06He's a southpaw, left-handed.
00:20:08And the referee there to check him.
00:20:10Here's some more of this distrustful Americans.
00:20:12Why you say that?
00:20:13He's used brass knucks very prominently in the past.
00:20:15Why wouldn't you check him if you're a competent referee?
00:20:18Well, you know he had to fly out here to San Diego.
00:20:20He wouldn't have been able to get brass knucks
00:20:22to his airport security.
00:20:24You're always thinking, aren't you?
00:20:26Yes.
00:20:27Guard elbow tie-up in this match for the Intercontinental title.
00:20:30Certainly, as this match progresses,
00:20:32we'll see if the ultra-smooth edge, so technically sound,
00:20:36can withstand Regal's tenacity.
00:20:38Because Regal's standing in the middle.
00:20:40And we know Regal's got a real mean streak.
00:20:42He is a punisher.
00:20:45Regal seems very focused and very confident
00:20:47he was going to win the Intercontinental title here today.
00:20:49Well, I'll tell you one thing that's made William Regal even meaner.
00:20:52If you can believe that over the past two weeks.
00:20:55He's lost all the ribbing that he's had to take
00:20:57from the WWF superstars.
00:20:59Every time he turns around, somebody's going,
00:21:01or somebody's going, hey, butt kisser.
00:21:04Hey, brown noser.
00:21:06Don't you think he gets a little tired of that, JR?
00:21:08I'm sure he does.
00:21:09He should have done it voluntarily.
00:21:10There's a missile drop kicked by Edge.
00:21:11And Regal getting out of the ring quickly.
00:21:14Like it or not, he's regrouping out there.
00:21:17He's intelligent.
00:21:19Regal started fighting for money at the age of 15
00:21:21in Blackpool, England.
00:21:23In the carnival circuit.
00:21:25He just introduced Edge to the ring post rather aggressively.
00:21:36You still need to remember that William Regal
00:21:38is a visitor from a foreign country.
00:21:41Yes.
00:21:43He's showing some hospitality here in the United States.
00:21:47Regal certainly has the opportunity here
00:21:49to show that nice uppercut form.
00:21:52Regal, that nice shot in there.
00:21:54Certainly one of the other characteristics
00:21:56of the European-trained competitor
00:21:58seems to be that uppercut form.
00:22:01Nice back body drop by Edge.
00:22:03Looking for a three here.
00:22:04Hooking the near leg and got a two count.
00:22:08Edge, as we mentioned, a three-time
00:22:10Intercontinental Champion.
00:22:12At least from where I sit.
00:22:14His popularity seems to be growing each and every week.
00:22:16And there's a cover by Regal.
00:22:18William Regal had that form well placed on that cover.
00:22:22He's punishing somebody all the time.
00:22:24And then he's brought to the unprotected face of Edge.
00:22:28Another uppercut form.
00:22:29And down goes Edge.
00:22:31Now, you've got to admit, all of those moves
00:22:33that we're seeing performed here by William Regal,
00:22:35they're perfectly legal.
00:22:36Absolutely.
00:22:37I mean, Edge, he won't hesitate to throw a rolled-up,
00:22:40spalled-up fist at you.
00:22:42But what's William Regal using for him?
00:22:44It's illegal.
00:22:45Edging the full Nelson.
00:22:47Gun counter.
00:22:48Edge looking for the sunset flip.
00:22:50Not on this exchange.
00:22:52And Regal with a handful of long hair.
00:22:54And takes it.
00:22:55Takes it straight down.
00:22:56A knee to the back of the neck.
00:22:58That is a vile maneuver, let me tell you.
00:23:00And there's a cover and a near fall.
00:23:03Regal has been taught how to hurt people at a very young age.
00:23:09And inside cradle.
00:23:11Inside cradle here.
00:23:12And another near fall.
00:23:14I think Regal is up.
00:23:15Delivering something else that hurts.
00:23:17Got that right.
00:23:18Knee to the abdomen.
00:23:19Knee to the temple.
00:23:20And the Intercontinental Champion in trouble.
00:23:23Regal, forearm right across the face of Edge.
00:23:27There you see it.
00:23:29You also see William Regal will not hesitate to use brass knucks.
00:23:34Oh, come on.
00:23:35You see the brass knucks in the ring?
00:23:37Well, I do see him.
00:23:39He does pull Edge's hair every now and then.
00:23:42Look at me.
00:23:44See, that's where Edge has to make a choice.
00:23:46What's that?
00:23:47Do I want to look good?
00:23:48Look cool?
00:23:50You know, look hip?
00:23:51Have this nice long hair?
00:23:52Have the curls go crazy over me?
00:23:53Look fly.
00:23:54Look fly.
00:23:55Or, do I want to be successful when I'm in the ring?
00:23:58Win matches without having my hair and my long locks, you know, be a detriment to me?
00:24:08Regal delivering the suplex.
00:24:10And now, again, another lateral press.
00:24:12And Regal, again, with his first and a lateral press.
00:24:15All that weight on his shoulders and that forearm right in the face of Edge.
00:24:19And Regal has his game face on here at Vengeance.
00:24:25Nice block by Edge.
00:24:27Scores with that swinging neck breaker.
00:24:30Regal's game face.
00:24:31I mean, he just, that's one thing I like about him.
00:24:34He always looks as if he smells something that's just not exactly right.
00:24:39Something odor-ridden.
00:24:41Nice takedown.
00:24:43There's a clencher hooked in on here, Paul.
00:24:48Edge now fighting back.
00:24:50He's learned something from William Regal.
00:24:54Regal set up that top turnbuckle.
00:24:55He doesn't want to be there.
00:24:58These men exchanging these right hands.
00:25:00Is Edge getting any better of the situation?
00:25:02It would seem.
00:25:03Uh-oh.
00:25:04This could be bad for William Regal.
00:25:06And the Hurricanrana from the top.
00:25:08Taking Regal down.
00:25:10Edge quickly with a cover.
00:25:11And, oh, that close.
00:25:13It was that close.
00:25:15Does the two count?
00:25:16Does the two count?
00:25:19There's not much effort to it.
00:25:20That's a big, bad three.
00:25:24A baseline by Regal.
00:25:25Into the northern arch suplex.
00:25:27Nice counter.
00:25:28Another near fall.
00:25:32Regal has lost his offensive momentum.
00:25:34But continuing to regain it in that reverse elbow.
00:25:37Might regain a little bit of it right there.
00:25:38Oh, no.
00:25:39Look out.
00:25:41And now Regal elevated over the top rope by Edge.
00:25:45Come on, Ed.
00:25:46Let's go.
00:25:47Edge, on purpose or not, bought himself a little bit of time.
00:25:50Now, Edge on the apron.
00:25:52And Edge with it.
00:25:53Edge going for the spear on the outside.
00:25:56And then speared steel.
00:25:58And that's not what the champion had intended to do.
00:26:01I think that pretty much does Edge in.
00:26:03He speared those steel steps.
00:26:04He's got to be finished.
00:26:06And that is a difference maker, to say the least.
00:26:09But look at William Regal.
00:26:10Always the gentleman.
00:26:11He's not going to take advantage of his injured opponent.
00:26:14He's asking the ref.
00:26:15What's he doing?
00:26:17Wait a minute.
00:26:18What?
00:26:19Hey!
00:26:20What the hell is that?
00:26:21Oh!
00:26:22Brass nuts.
00:26:23What were they doing in the ring?
00:26:25They were stuck to that ring post.
00:26:27And Regal didn't know what it meant then.
00:26:30Well, if you had the good fortune of finding something,
00:26:32you might as well take advantage of it.
00:26:34Man, he'd be hellacious at Easter egg time, wouldn't he?
00:26:36Oh, yeah.
00:26:37Yeah, he would.
00:26:39Regal knew exactly where those brass nuts were.
00:26:42As if he's going to need them, because Edge
00:26:44speared the steel steps.
00:26:46He's already unconscious.
00:26:47Just leave him lay there.
00:26:48Let him get counted out.
00:26:49Well, Regal can't win the title if Edge gets counted out.
00:26:52Oh, good point.
00:26:54And this one should be over right here.
00:26:56There's the cover.
00:26:58And Regal made a calculated error there.
00:27:01He didn't pull Edge to the ring far enough.
00:27:03Edge able to use the bottom rope to stop the count.
00:27:06And Regal looks like he just sucked on a rotten lemon.
00:27:08That's that famous face.
00:27:11Or a mug.
00:27:13Is that kind of that ass-kissing look, too?
00:27:16Ooh!
00:27:17Nice powerbomb.
00:27:19There's the cover.
00:27:21And Edge reaching down with everything
00:27:23he's got to roll off those shoulders.
00:27:25And Regal certainly seems to be getting
00:27:27a little bit frustrated here.
00:27:30I think maybe that Regal could be a little surprised
00:27:33that if he took Edge, we'll not disagree,
00:27:37a little bit lightly as far as the toughness category
00:27:40was concerned.
00:27:41Now, one thing you've got to admit,
00:27:43he did fine for his knuckles, just obviously
00:27:46laying around the ring there.
00:27:47But he had to use them.
00:27:49Well, they're in his tights.
00:27:51Referee checked Regal.
00:27:52Regal knew he was going to be checked.
00:27:55Looks like he smashed the nuts someplace else or something.
00:27:58Somebody did.
00:27:59Another one of those distrustful Americans
00:28:01that he was picking on.
00:28:04Both men now back up before the 10 count.
00:28:07Uh-oh.
00:28:08There's a roll-up.
00:28:09And Regal off his shoulders in a hurry.
00:28:12Backslide.
00:28:13There's a backslide.
00:28:14And again, Regal comes up with that left hand,
00:28:17left forearm more specifically.
00:28:19Yeah, Regal moved.
00:28:21Watch his hands.
00:28:25These guys, Regal and Edge in great shape.
00:28:27And now Regal.
00:28:28I don't know.
00:28:29He's a veteran.
00:28:30He knows what he's doing.
00:28:31He may be wasting a little bit of valuable time here.
00:28:33Well, he's pretty proud of himself.
00:28:35He's pretty confident right now.
00:28:36He knows he's got an ace in the hole.
00:28:42Double arm powerbomb by Regal.
00:28:46Right there, Sheldon.
00:28:49And a pair.
00:28:51And there should be enough right there.
00:28:53So it's not.
00:28:56Well, Edge is showing a lot of resilience.
00:29:00I'll tell you that.
00:29:01And Regal now, got to be thinking,
00:29:03what the heck have I got to do to beat this pillion?
00:29:11Regal being admonished by the referee.
00:29:12Oh, wait a minute.
00:29:13Regal reaching for those tights.
00:29:15Regal's got those nooks on his hands, King.
00:29:17And there we go.
00:29:18There's a spear.
00:29:19A spear by Edge out of nowhere.
00:29:23The winner of this match, and still Intercontinental Champion, Edge.
00:29:30Edge was schooled by Regal for the majority of this match.
00:29:34And look as if Regal says, I can't beat this man with a wrestling hold.
00:29:38I'll use the brass nuts to get it done.
00:29:40And as Regal is loading up the brass nuts, here comes the spear.
00:29:45Now, wait a minute, you silly pillion.
00:29:47You cannot accuse him of using brass nuts.
00:29:49He never used them once.
00:29:52He didn't move, but he never used them once.
00:29:57A hard-fought victory for Edge,
00:29:59but you've got to believe this Edge-Regal situation is not over.
00:30:04All these years, they're finally going to have one undisputed World Heavyweight Champion.
00:30:08It's awesome.
00:30:09Yeah, it's a big deal.
00:30:11Hey, let me call you back.
00:30:13Hey, Kurt.
00:30:14Ric Flair.
00:30:16Ric Flair.
00:30:18You heard what Mr. McMahon said.
00:30:20He who laughs last, laughs loudest.
00:30:23He said a lot of stupid things.
00:30:25Oh, Mr. Flair, I'm sorry.
00:30:27Fourteen-time World Champion.
00:30:29The Nature Boy.
00:30:31The greatest there ever was.
00:30:33You know what?
00:30:35There's one thing you never have and never will win in your life.
00:30:39That's Olympic gold medal.
00:30:40Oh, I know.
00:30:41That's why you're the greatest ambassador in the sport.
00:30:43I am, yeah.
00:30:44Awesome.
00:30:45You know what else you've never won, Mr. Flair?
00:30:48You've never been Undisputed World Champion.
00:30:50And I'm gonna tonight.
00:30:52Sure, you were WWF Champion, NWA Champion, WCW Champion.
00:30:57But you were never the Undisputed Champion of the world.
00:31:00And I'm gonna do it tonight.
00:31:02Yeah, you have the ability to.
00:31:04I'm gonna.
00:31:05I believe you.
00:31:06I will.
00:31:07You've got a good shot.
00:31:08Oh, I've got a good shot?
00:31:09I have Stone Cold Steve Austin first.
00:31:10And when I kick his butt, I'm gonna sit back and watch Rock and Jericho kick the crap out of each other.
00:31:16And then when I see a winner, I'm gonna go down and kick the crap out of him and become the Undisputed World Champion.
00:31:24If you can do all that, you'll be awesome.
00:31:25Oh, I'm gonna.
00:31:27I believe you.
00:31:28I'll do it.
00:31:29That's awesome.
00:31:30I'm gonna go out there and do it.
00:31:31That's awesome.
00:31:32I'm gonna.
00:31:33That's awesome.
00:31:34I will.
00:31:37I believe you.
00:31:38I'll do it.
00:31:42I believe you.
00:31:46Oh!
00:31:51I'm in.
00:31:55Hey.
00:31:56Hey.
00:31:57How are you?
00:31:58I'm good.
00:31:59Look, uh, I know this has been a really tough time for all of us.
00:32:03Especially you.
00:32:04Yeah, it has been hard.
00:32:05You know, Jeff and I drug you in the middle of our problems several times before, but never anything to this extent.
00:32:13And you know, and I know you know, how much this means to me tonight.
00:32:17How big this match is to me tonight.
00:32:19Because tonight, I get the opportunity to show that I am the brains of the Hardy Boys.
00:32:24To show that I am the better wrestler.
00:32:27Tonight I get the opportunity to prove I make good decisions.
00:32:31Look, Matt, I know that.
00:32:32I know tonight is a really big night for you.
00:32:34Huge.
00:32:35And I also want you to know this, okay?
00:32:38As your girlfriend, I'm always on your side.
00:32:40Always on your side.
00:32:42Yeah.
00:32:44But my job tonight is being the WWF referee.
00:32:47So I can't take sides, Matt.
00:32:48I gotta call it right down the middle.
00:32:50Just like I see it, okay?
00:32:54That's fine.
00:32:55You can call it right down the middle.
00:32:56Okay.
00:32:57You know why?
00:32:58Because Jeff's never even gonna get the opportunity to pin my shoulders down for one, two, three.
00:33:03Tonight, I'm gonna wipe the mat up with Jeff.
00:33:06Okay.
00:33:07And you know what?
00:33:08After I do, how about we go out?
00:33:10Huge celebration.
00:33:11Okay.
00:33:12We'll make it to Matt and Lee tonight.
00:33:13And we'll put all this behind us, once and for all.
00:33:15Great.
00:33:16Good.
00:33:17Alright?
00:33:18Okay.
00:33:19I'll see you out there.
00:33:20See you out there.
00:33:23Indeed, we are just moments away from brother versus brother.
00:33:27Matt Hardy versus his younger brother, Jeff Hardy.
00:33:30And these two young men, who grew up as lifelong fans in Cameron, North Carolina,
00:33:36realize their dream just to get here as a tag team.
00:33:40We're the Hardys.
00:33:41We're Matt and Jeff.
00:33:43We're the Hardys.
00:33:44We're in the WWF, and that's what our dream was.
00:33:48Whenever we got the contract in the mail, man, proved positive.
00:33:51Wow, man.
00:33:52What a feeling.
00:33:53Really, as far back as I can remember, Jeff's always, you know,
00:33:56loved to do kind of crazy and daring things.
00:33:58I'm not as tough as Jeff is.
00:34:00I don't know.
00:34:01I can't say that he can honestly say that.
00:34:03I think he's pretty tough.
00:34:04If I had to use one word to describe Jeff, it would probably be unique.
00:34:07Matt's so smart, and he's got such a mind for wrestling.
00:34:10Jeff was really athletic.
00:34:11You know, athletically, he's amazing.
00:34:12He can do anything he puts his mind to.
00:34:14I couldn't ask for better.
00:34:15It's great to be traveling with your brother,
00:34:17and so he totally takes care of me.
00:34:19The no-mercy ladder match is where we turn the corner
00:34:21and went from being just WWF wrestlers to WWF superstars.
00:34:24What an amazing display.
00:34:26They're giving it to the fans.
00:34:27They're giving it to the fans of the WWF here.
00:34:29These Hardy boys, tremendous amount of guts, J.R.,
00:34:32from rural North Carolina, Matt and Jeff Hardy
00:34:35have once again acclaimed the top of the WWF Tag Team Mountain.
00:34:41Living their dream, Matt and Jeff Hardy damn well deserve
00:34:44to be Tag Team Champions.
00:34:46I'm thankful for what has happened with the Hardy boys,
00:34:49and I totally think we will continue to exist and inspire.
00:34:55Jeff to get out of here, and both feet touch.
00:34:57The Hardys have done it.
00:34:58Matt is incurring his brother.
00:35:00Matt is incurring his brother.
00:35:02They'll come on down.
00:35:03What the hell?
00:35:04Jeff, don't do this!
00:35:05No!
00:35:06Damn it!
00:35:07Oh, my God!
00:35:08All you had to do, Jeff, was climb down the cage,
00:35:11and we would have won the match.
00:35:12It was a no-brainer.
00:35:13I'm sorry.
00:35:14Over and over again, I made a mistake.
00:35:15No, you didn't make a mistake, Jeff.
00:35:17What you made was a choice.
00:35:18You made a selfish choice.
00:35:20I did what was right for the Hardy boys.
00:35:22I did what was right for the team.
00:35:24You weren't thinking about the team.
00:35:25I was trying to win.
00:35:26You were thinking about you.
00:35:27I told you, don't take any unnecessary risks.
00:35:29I told you, do the twist of fate and beat him on the mat.
00:35:31Who asked you to get involved in the match anyway, huh?
00:35:34Nobody asked me to get involved, Jeff.
00:35:35I got involved because I care about you.
00:35:37I got involved because I care about this team.
00:35:39Now, do you care about the team, Jeff?
00:35:41You know what?
00:35:42Ever since we were kids, I've always had to keep you on the right side.
00:35:44Ever since we were kids, Matt, you've been trying to run my life.
00:35:46You've been trying to control me.
00:35:48You've always thought you're smarter.
00:35:49You've always thought you're better.
00:35:50I don't think it's a question that I'm smarter than you, Jeff.
00:35:52I think that's obvious.
00:35:53If somebody needs...
00:35:54Look!
00:35:55Shut up!
00:35:56Please.
00:35:57You're not in this.
00:35:58You've been doing the Magic Pigeons so bad, you've got one.
00:36:00You're always pushing me one way or the other.
00:36:03Stop!
00:36:04You're not listening.
00:36:05Stop!
00:36:06Stop!
00:36:07Look, Jeff, you see what you did?
00:36:08You're leading the whole match.
00:36:09Matt, please.
00:36:10Shut up!
00:36:11Shut up!
00:36:12Shut up!
00:36:13Stop it, Matt!
00:36:14Stop!
00:36:15Why are you taking his side on this?
00:36:16I'm not taking anyone's side.
00:36:17If you loved me, you would take my side regardless.
00:36:20Stop that.
00:36:21It's not fair, Matt.
00:36:22I'm not taking anyone's side.
00:36:23How about you be the referee at the Magic Pigeons?
00:36:26And we'll see whose side you're on.
00:36:29Fine!
00:36:30Matt and Jeff Hardy are definitely not on the same page.
00:36:33They are not reading the same book.
00:36:35But they can settle it all at Vengeance one-on-one.
00:36:39Brother against brother.
00:36:40No brother.
00:36:42Ladies and gentlemen, at this time, may I introduce your special referee for the upcoming
00:36:59contest, Lita!
00:37:00Lita finds herself right in the middle of this brother versus brother controversy.
00:37:08She obviously loves Matt Hardy, but she looks at Jeff Hardy like a brother she never had.
00:37:15And Lita now will be...
00:37:17Oh, no smoking.
00:37:19I do notice the thong.
00:37:21Am I drooling?
00:37:23Just a little.
00:37:24Oh, my God.
00:37:26What a ref!
00:37:29What?
00:37:34The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:37:38Introducing first, from Cameron, North Carolina, weighing 218 pounds, Jeff Hardy!
00:37:47It's gonna be good, JR.
00:37:48These two young men growing up in Cameron, North Carolina, probably had a lot of
00:37:51front yard scuffles.
00:37:53This is elevated from that.
00:37:55This is really gonna be a high-risk fest, one would have to assume.
00:37:59And perhaps the first to crash and burn will lose this match.
00:38:05Brother versus brother.
00:38:09From Cameron, North Carolina, weighing 223 pounds, Matt Hardy!
00:38:18Matt Hardy a couple years older than his brother, Jeff.
00:38:22These two have prepared basically their entire lives to get the opportunity to come to the
00:38:27WWF.
00:38:28They are here.
00:38:29They're recognized, arguably, as one of the greatest tag teams in the whole history of
00:38:33the business.
00:38:34Right.
00:38:35No problem.
00:38:36I agree 100%.
00:38:37They've proved their worth as a tag team.
00:38:39They've been there and done that.
00:38:41Now let's get it on and find out which one of these guys is actually the best individual
00:38:45single wrestler.
00:38:47Three members of Team Extreme.
00:38:49No one's at stake here.
00:38:51This could be a situation that could bring closure to this personal issue between the
00:38:56brothers, or it could divide it even farther.
00:38:58Yeah.
00:38:59Could bring closure to the relationship between Matt and Lita.
00:39:02She's not careful.
00:39:03You know what Lita needs to do right now?
00:39:05She needs to remember the words of one of your favorite all-time singers.
00:39:09Old Tammy Wynette.
00:39:11Old Tammy.
00:39:12Time to stand by your man.
00:39:15Let's see if she stands by her man or calls it down the middle.
00:39:18I got to believe that on Lita's character, she's going to call it right down the middle
00:39:22of this crowd here.
00:39:23See, it's certainly divided and almost reluctant to boo either guy because of the popularity
00:39:31of both these young men.
00:39:33Sure.
00:39:34These guys right now, though, they don't care who gets booed.
00:39:36Look at that.
00:39:37They don't care who gets booed, who tears.
00:39:39They have to prove a point for themselves.
00:39:41Of course, Matt wants to prove a little bit to Lita.
00:39:44Matt doing some verbalizing with his younger brother, Jeff.
00:39:48Certainly, Jeff never saw a chance he didn't love to take.
00:39:52It's Team Extreme.
00:39:53All three members of Team Extreme here in the ring.
00:39:55I think Jeff never saw a hair salon he didn't avoid either.
00:39:58Did he spend hours on his hair today?
00:40:00I don't know about that.
00:40:02It is unique as usual.
00:40:04Unique?
00:40:06He spent hours on his hair and then he wore the hat to the ring.
00:40:08Barring the arm of his brother, Matt, and certainly four men back in the locker room
00:40:15area.
00:40:16Got to be thinking about what hand that will deal them tonight as we crown an undisputed
00:40:21champion.
00:40:22Really, for the first time in our business, four men looking at that one opportunity to
00:40:30be the first undisputed champion.
00:40:31What about Kurt Angle?
00:40:32That could be a little close for concern.
00:40:33He busted in on Ric Flair.
00:40:34I couldn't tell who Kurt was trying to convince.
00:40:35Flair himself.
00:40:36Knocked down by Matt Hardy.
00:40:37Taking down his brother, Jeff.
00:40:38Both these men who we thought would come out with all the high risk and have not seen it
00:40:39yet.
00:40:40You get blue on your hands there.
00:40:41Boom!
00:40:42Boom!
00:40:43Boom!
00:40:44Boom!
00:40:45Boom!
00:40:46Boom!
00:40:47Boom!
00:40:48Boom!
00:40:49Boom!
00:40:50Boom!
00:40:51Boom!
00:40:52Boom!
00:40:53Boom!
00:40:54Boom!
00:40:55Boom!
00:40:56Boom!
00:40:57Boom!
00:40:58Boom!
00:41:00They're down to Jeff.
00:41:01He's in a good position.
00:41:03Got the cover.
00:41:04Got a two count there.
00:41:06I don't think Lita has a bad position.
00:41:09That's probably the best point you're gonna make, tonight.
00:41:13Jeff inserting himself here.
00:41:18Seems to me that Jeff is or Matt rather I should say, excuse me has a little bit more
00:41:22of an attitude problem than Jeff-
00:41:24I think he's been, I think he's been given a little bit more of an attitude.
00:41:32I watched that video highlight the package there, you gotta admit, JR.
00:41:39Jeff Hardy has shown some signs of being selfish as a leader.
00:41:43Well, he has taken some unnecessary risk.
00:41:45I don't know if it's selfish or not, but certainly bad judgment at times.
00:41:49There's a takedown after that thumb to the eye moments ago.
00:41:52And Lita looking, you have never evaluated a referee as thoroughly as you are here tonight.
00:41:58You're on top of the game.
00:42:00I'm with the FBI, female body inspectors.
00:42:03Uh-oh, look at this.
00:42:05They were all applied by Matt Hardy.
00:42:08That'll slow you down, buddy.
00:42:10And getting in a fade away here.
00:42:14This is gonna be a very uncharacteristic way for
00:42:17the Hardys to win or lose the match.
00:42:19Side headlock, like Jeff was doing with a sleeper.
00:42:23And Matt countered the side headlock with a suplex.
00:42:25Matt's got a little bit of extra incentive.
00:42:28Whoever wins this match, of course,
00:42:30they're gonna prove a point with a better brother.
00:42:33But Matt, if he wins, whoa, he's gonna celebrate Lita tonight.
00:42:37Party all night long.
00:42:38Matt spent too much time in the second turn, but was thinking about it.
00:42:42And certainly one would have to assume that these two guys can't really do
00:42:46anything that the other hasn't seen.
00:42:49May come down to that one big crash and burn mistake as the Jeff quickens the pace
00:42:53here a little bit, aggressively forcing his brother back in the corner.
00:42:58But the loop is reversed to the far side.
00:43:00Whoa, look at Lita.
00:43:02Look at that.
00:43:04And Jeff connected with his leg drop.
00:43:09Let's see what Lita does.
00:43:10She actually did it.
00:43:12And the kick out by Matt Hardy before the three count.
00:43:15A very solid, deliberate count by Lita.
00:43:19But Matt can't believe that.
00:43:21I think she was gonna- Jeff walked the ropes.
00:43:27That took him down rather unceremoniously.
00:43:29Now he's tied up.
00:43:32It's more of that showboating by Jeff.
00:43:34It's cost him there, but it's cost the team in the past.
00:43:37And that's what- Wait a minute, Lita.
00:43:40Lita's doing her job.
00:43:42And then, they tie a Jeff with that rope.
00:43:47And Matt doesn't like it, but that's good, that's good officiating by Franklin.
00:43:50Why is that good officiating?
00:43:52See, he was in the ropes, but he can't beat him in the ropes.
00:43:55And there's a cover to- Near fall.
00:43:59Is that a little bit of a slow count?
00:44:02I'm starting to- I think you're seeing things.
00:44:04Let's start reading more into this now.
00:44:05Okay, I hope I'm not seeing things.
00:44:07She is an inexperienced referee, too, we might add.
00:44:11How much experience does it take to count a three?
00:44:12Matt trying to get a subset win.
00:44:15And that's countered by his brother.
00:44:17These guys, they're taking some chances.
00:44:22Jeff's head bounced right off the floor, also.
00:44:24And it would be somewhat poetic if this match ended on a count out.
00:44:30I don't know if that's gonna happen suddenly, I think,
00:44:34but certainly it would be perhaps apropos for
00:44:37the competitive level of both these young men.
00:44:41And Jeff may have hurt himself.
00:44:49He jammed that left knee, I'm not sure.
00:44:52Coming over in that unorthodox fashion.
00:44:55Unorthodox, is that the best way to describe it, or showboating again?
00:44:59And look at Matt go right up to that injured leg.
00:45:04You gotta do it, JR, you can't play favorite, too.
00:45:06Cuz that's your brother, you gotta win this match.
00:45:08Free forever.
00:45:09Right.
00:45:13Downstairs went Matt, first sign of weakness on Jeff and Matt now.
00:45:17Exploding it here.
00:45:18You gotta wonder how far Matt will take it,
00:45:24can he take it as far as using his leg to beat his brother?
00:45:30I guess I just answered, he just answered my question.
00:45:34He did that, did you ever think you'd see this match, JR?
00:45:37Quite frankly, no.
00:45:40I always wanted to, but I didn't think I'd ever see it.
00:45:43One more.
00:45:44One more.
00:45:47There's no gray area here, what Matt is intending to do, and
00:45:50that is to cripple his brother here in this match.
00:45:54Never thought I'd see Lita in that outfit, either.
00:45:57You hoped you would.
00:45:58Uh-huh.
00:45:59Trying to load up his brother.
00:46:04Here we go.
00:46:05Whoa.
00:46:07And Jeff countered to the side Russian leg sweep.
00:46:11Hey, look at this.
00:46:13Could be a third.
00:46:16Man.
00:46:18Took everything he had to get out of that.
00:46:19Matt countered, going right back to work on that leg.
00:46:23It is a cold, hard strategy for Matt Hardy and the half Boston Crab.
00:46:28Get down there, Lita, see if Jeff's gonna tap out.
00:46:32He looks to me like he's in pretty good position.
00:46:35Don't make me say that again.
00:46:36Make that call.
00:46:37Yeah.
00:46:38Matt working back on that leg of his brother, Jeff.
00:46:44And Jeff reaching in behind the bottom rope.
00:46:46Lita's gonna fall for the break here.
00:46:48And Matt doing it rather slowly.
00:46:51He's got to do the five count.
00:46:55And Matt broke just before the five count.
00:46:57Do you think Lita would have actually disqualified Matt?
00:46:59I think she would have.
00:47:01I think she would have, King.
00:47:02I think she's gonna call it right down the middle as best she can.
00:47:05Or he's having a turn on you in a second, I think.
00:47:08You know that.
00:47:10Uh-oh, look at this.
00:47:12Whoa.
00:47:12Whoa.
00:47:15Matt looked like he might be attempting a spinning toe hold.
00:47:19But his back turned to his brother, and then kicked right outside.
00:47:25This bought Jeff a little bit of time to get his legs back under him.
00:47:29Yeah, I remember that.
00:47:31That's not good enough for Jeff Hartnett.
00:47:34Right in the mouth.
00:47:35One leg or not, here came the baseball slide.
00:47:39Lita, if you allow him much more of that, he's not gonna be able to kiss you
00:47:41tonight during that celebration.
00:47:44And uh-oh.
00:47:45No wheels, Jeff.
00:47:46No wheels is right.
00:47:47Jeff's got a blowout.
00:47:50Jeff's got a blowout.
00:47:50He was gonna come over the top rope, it looked like, with a crossed body.
00:47:54That leg gave away on him.
00:47:57And Matt Hardy, like it or not, this is good strategy.
00:48:00No.
00:48:00Reversed heel kick by Jeff.
00:48:02Right in the mouth again.
00:48:03You okay?
00:48:05Might not be no smooching going on tonight for those of you, are you?
00:48:09Two, three.
00:48:12First time I ever saw a referee wear a thong.
00:48:15Uh-huh.
00:48:16First time I ever wanted to see a referee wear a thong.
00:48:18It was that dream I had that time.
00:48:19Okay, let's chill it.
00:48:22Right hand by Jeff, and Matt counters.
00:48:24And I'll tell you what, I don't know who's gonna win a fist fight here.
00:48:28My money kinda is on Matt.
00:48:30A little bit the bigger of the two, and he ain't got that bad wheel.
00:48:33Going down, look at the twist of fate.
00:48:36And he waited too long.
00:48:37And the fate is both of the heels of Jeff Hardy and
00:48:41the lower abdomen of his brother Matt.
00:48:43What about that, Lita?
00:48:44Kissing's one thing, but now we're getting serious.
00:48:47Boom.
00:48:48Right along the waistline.
00:48:49There'll be no celebration tonight at all.
00:48:52Look at Jeff limping.
00:48:54He is having a hard time.
00:48:55You talk about Bill going caution to the wind.
00:48:58Uh-oh.
00:48:59Not caring about the consequences, not worrying about tomorrow.
00:49:04And Jeff Hardy took a little bit more time than he is used to on that bad leg.
00:49:09Can't climb.
00:49:11Gave Matt a little time to get back up.
00:49:14Now, this don't look good.
00:49:15Jeff, ooh, bad flight.
00:49:18Rough landing.
00:49:21Put your tray tables up.
00:49:22Come on.
00:49:23Come on.
00:49:25And now, Matt, maybe just- Come on, Jeff.
00:49:26Academic here, Matt.
00:49:27Come on.
00:49:28Almost waiting on Jeff to get back up to some sort of verticality.
00:49:33Here we go.
00:49:34Verticality.
00:49:35And Matt trying to twist his fate.
00:49:39That got countered.
00:49:41Discounted.
00:49:42Backslide.
00:49:43Backslide.
00:49:44And, ooh, Lita, a long two-handle.
00:49:48Look at that long two there.
00:49:53Jeff trying to, still holding on to those legs.
00:49:57And there's a pinning predicament here.
00:49:59Jeff in the ropes.
00:50:00And that's Lita catching her board,
00:50:02trying to use the ropes for an unfair advantage.
00:50:05I think Jeff or Matt would rather her just not see that.
00:50:09And there's a roll-up.
00:50:10A roll-up by Matt or Jeff on Matt.
00:50:13And got a near fall.
00:50:15Well, Lita's not hesitating to count on Matt.
00:50:17Oh, wow, did you see that?
00:50:19Come on, Jeff.
00:50:21Hard takedown, a knockdown, more specifically by Matt Hardy and his brother, Jeff.
00:50:26It's gonna be hard for Matt to concentrate on what he's gonna do to Jeff when he's back in his mind.
00:50:29He's thinking that, look at Lita, the way she's acting towards him.
00:50:34Look at Matt and his girlfriend.
00:50:35Hey, it was Matt's idea for Lita to officiate this match.
00:50:38Right, because you expect your girlfriend to show you a little partiality.
00:50:42You expect that?
00:50:44I don't think that's the kind of person Lita is.
00:50:45She's got a job to do.
00:50:46She's doing the best she can, as Matt just got his face introduced to that top turnbuckle.
00:50:51And again, Jeff Hardy.
00:50:52It's like if Matt couldn't lead out to a dance or something,
00:50:55she'd just dance with anybody all night long.
00:50:58This ain't no dance.
00:50:59Show no partiality.
00:51:00This ain't the senior prom.
00:51:01Well, similar.
00:51:04Oh, man, look at this.
00:51:05Oh, man.
00:51:07And there's the move.
00:51:09Matt just got countered from the top.
00:51:11Uh-oh.
00:51:12And Jeff, with Matt down, Jeff up.
00:51:15Can he hit?
00:51:16No, he does, the Swanton.
00:51:19One leg and all, Jeff Hardy just hit the Swanton.
00:51:23What are you gonna do, Lita?
00:51:24Two, three.
00:51:26And Matt trying to get his foot on the rope.
00:51:28Lita didn't see it.
00:51:29Two-shoulder Jeff Hardy.
00:51:31Now, wait a minute.
00:51:34Lita had her head down, looking at shoulders.
00:51:36Was Matt's foot on the rope?
00:51:38I believe it was, and Jeff pulled it right off.
00:51:42Lita!
00:51:43Lita had her head down, looking at Matt's shoulders.
00:51:46Yeah, but wait a minute, listen.
00:51:48My foot, look, look, look.
00:51:52Matt's trying to explain what happened,
00:51:53but the winner is Jeff Hardy.
00:51:57Lita!
00:51:59Lita made the only call she saw.
00:52:03Yeah, but did you see Matt's foot on the rope?
00:52:05I did.
00:52:08And Matt is not waiting around to congratulate
00:52:11his brother or discuss the officiating.
00:52:15Matt Hardy is leaving, and certainly
00:52:17a nonchalant smile on his face.
00:52:20I think it's safe to say there'll be no celebration
00:52:22tonight between him and Matt.
00:52:23Look at this.
00:52:24The big Swanton.
00:52:26Jeff hits it.
00:52:27And here's the cover.
00:52:29Somewhere, there's the cover.
00:52:30Lita counting one.
00:52:32Foot is on the rope.
00:52:33The foot is on the rope.
00:52:36Wait a minute.
00:52:40A decade of destruction.
00:52:41Oh, glad the Undertaker.
00:52:43From the beginning of his legendary career.

00:53:25in our business history.
00:53:41Hey.
00:53:42I just want to come in and talk to you about Thursday.
00:53:44It was so amazing the way you stood up to Vince
00:53:46and you just took his face and shoved it in Rikishi's butt.
00:53:48It was so amazing.
00:53:49I just want to tell you that was awesome.
00:53:51Oh, good.
00:53:52Oh, OK.
00:53:53Well, I appreciate it.
00:53:55Yeah, and I know you have a huge match tonight,
00:53:57and I just thought I'd come and wish you good luck.
00:54:05Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:54:12Well, I have a match tonight.
00:54:14My wife is going.
00:54:15I'm coming.
00:54:16I know.
00:54:17Yeah.
00:54:18Shh.
00:54:23Just so you and The Rock are on the same page,
00:54:25the only thing that The Rock is concentrating on tonight,
00:54:28the only thing that The Rock is concentrating on tonight
00:54:32is walking out of San Diego the undisputed champion.
00:54:36However, after tonight, after your big title match,
00:54:42after you win your big title match,
00:54:44and after The Rock goes out there and does what he does best,
00:54:47and that's lay the smack down on Kandy Asses,
00:54:50there'll be plenty, plenty of time for you to smell
00:54:59what The Rock
00:55:01what The Rock
00:55:20Uh, I think I'm speechless.
00:55:24Oh, my.
00:55:25Oh, my.
00:55:26The next tag team contest scheduled for one fall
00:55:29is for the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Championship.
00:55:34Approaching the ring, accompanied by Stacy Keebler
00:55:37and a combined weight of 556 pounds,
00:55:40the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champion,
00:55:44Divas Monterrey Boots Deadly Boyz.
00:55:49Hey, JR.
00:55:50Oh, look at Stacy.
00:55:51He's got just a deadly drill, legs and all, King.
00:55:54Ha ha.
00:55:55Oh, look at those legs.
00:55:56And the Dudleys, certainly,
00:55:57arguably the greatest tag team in WWF history.
00:56:00Well, well, it's a big show.
00:56:07Yes, it's a big, bad show tonight.
00:56:14Yeah, it's a big show.
00:56:18Introducing the challengers,
00:56:20first weighing 500 pounds,
00:56:23The Big Show.
00:56:26Dudleys and their tag team in history to be the
00:56:28WWF, WCW, and ECW Tag Team Champions.
00:56:32That is a tremendous feat that can never be denied.
00:56:35Uh-oh.
00:56:36But can even the Dudleys survive Hellfire in Rockstar?
00:56:40Weighing 300 pounds,
00:56:43Team.
00:56:46We know the Dudleys have chemistry.
00:56:48We know the Dudleys have continuity as a tag team.
00:56:52The jury is still out on King and The Big Show
00:56:55having that chemistry that it's gonna take
00:56:58to win the tag team titles here tonight.
00:57:01Oh, my gosh, hey.
00:57:07Yeah, the Dudleys got chemistry.
00:57:08They got continuity.
00:57:10But you know what else they got, JR?
00:57:12What's that?
00:57:13Oh, my gosh, look at that.
00:57:14They got Stacy Keebler in their corner.
00:57:16Woo-hoo.
00:57:17What is it you like about her today?
00:57:19What is it I don't like about her?
00:57:22Yvonne Dudley and Kane kicking it off here.
00:57:26And certainly the Dudleys,
00:57:28they gotta be thinking who they're gonna try to isolate.
00:57:32From bad to worse.
00:57:33They're gonna try to isolate Kane and the 500-pounder
00:57:36standing out there on the apron.
00:57:38Oh, jeez.
00:57:39Power coming from Kane knocking down both the Dudleys.
00:57:43And Bubba Ray, no lightweight.
00:57:45He's 325 pounds.
00:57:47You got that right.
00:57:49No lightweight.
00:57:52Back mate, 7'2", 500-pound,
00:57:57Big Show stepping into the ring.
00:58:01Big Show and Kane just gotta keep it straight up,
00:58:04stay vertical.
00:58:06They're competing at a deliberate pace.
00:58:08And there is a cover to be over right here.
00:58:11You got Bubba to get that verticality back on there.
00:58:16I like the experience a little horizontally there
00:58:18with Stacy Keebler.
00:58:21Oh, yeah.
00:58:24Yeah, tag me, please.
00:58:26Dudley's been the hardy since the Survivor Series last month
00:58:30to become the undisputed tag team champ.
00:58:33Oh, boy.
00:58:34Sidebar slam by the 500-pounder.
00:58:36He's got that weight on one shoulder.
00:58:38Yvonne got the other shoulder up.
00:58:42And this Big Show can do an elementary move
00:58:44and just, he makes it extraordinary.
00:58:46Yeah, like this.
00:58:47Ooh.
00:58:51That is a large posterior.
00:58:53Yeah.
00:58:54Not on the rikishi level.
00:58:57No, but I don't know.
00:58:59Bubba Ray got knocked on his backside.
00:59:02Those are some big buns.
00:59:05And it's Sunday, but every day is Big Bun Day to Big Show.
00:59:11And the Big Show and Kane right now just dominate.
00:59:17Well, we know that, so maybe every now and then
00:59:19we can get a shot at Stacy Keebler.
00:59:21What about it?
00:59:24Whoa!
00:59:25Bubba Ray engulfing his partner.
00:59:27Here comes the 500 pounds.
00:59:31Even the Dudleys, I don't think any offense
00:59:34is going to be over in a heartbeat.
00:59:38The challenger's throwing the champions
00:59:40outside the ring again.
00:59:43Wait a minute.
00:59:44What?
00:59:45Kane going up top.
00:59:46Uh-oh.
00:59:47Look at that.
00:59:48Look at that.
00:59:49Oh, my God.
00:59:51Hey, hey, hey.
00:59:52Look at Stacy.
00:59:53Stacy Keebler got in the ring.
00:59:56Well, she's concerned about him.
00:59:57325 pounds of Kane.
00:59:59She's trying to get the Dudley boys up.
01:00:01She can get anybody.
01:00:02Whoa!
01:00:04Look what came down.
01:00:06Oh, my goodness.
01:00:08Oh, what's up with the Big Show?
01:00:09Ow!
01:00:10Ow!
01:00:11Big Show taking Stacy to a little trip to the woodshed.
01:00:14Oh, that's going to need to be massaged.
01:00:16It may need sad.
01:00:17Come here.
01:00:18Come here, Stacy.
01:00:20That's a big boo-boo.
01:00:22It doesn't make it better.
01:00:24And D-Von back in.
01:00:28Wait a minute.
01:00:29There's Bubba Ray.
01:00:30Oh, Stacy.
01:00:31I can't believe they did that.
01:00:34Bubba Dudley and D-Von getting a double team.
01:00:36King, you've got to focus on what we're doing.
01:00:38Wait a minute.
01:00:39You're not a first aid man.
01:00:41Come on.
01:00:43This is not a mass unit out here.
01:00:46No, you're an old masher from way back.
01:00:48I always carry some salve here in my jacket.
01:00:50Oh!
01:00:51King.
01:00:53Showed all that power.
01:00:54Just got taken down.
01:00:56Look out.
01:00:57On the backside by Bubba Ray Dudley.
01:00:59And now the-
01:01:00Look at the backside.
01:01:01Stacy, how's it feeling?
01:01:03Referee back to her.
01:01:05And that missile-like blow to the lower regions of King's manhood.
01:01:13Won't do those crispy critters any good, will it?
01:01:15I think now we know that the Dudleys have the opportunity to isolate King.
01:01:20And King now back in that Dudley corner.
01:01:23King don't want to get too far south of Dudleyville here.
01:01:29Uh-oh.
01:01:31King focusing on D-Von.
01:01:33On the outside, there's another tag.
01:01:35Now the Dudleys are starting to hit their stride here.
01:01:39Oh, boy.
01:01:40Flapjack.
01:01:42Jay from the Illuminati Express in the double team.
01:01:45Knocking the Big Show down to a knee.
01:01:47I'm worried about Stacy King's backside there.
01:01:51I could leave a mark.
01:01:53Oh, crap.
01:01:54What?
01:01:55That's a knockdown by King.
01:01:56That King has got so much power.
01:01:58Goes for his boots.
01:02:00Right to that clothesline.
01:02:04Now back into this one.
01:02:05Wait a minute.
01:02:07Big Show got the tag.
01:02:08Man, nothing pretty about this, but it is very effective when you're 500 pounds.
01:02:15And D-Von's in another zip code.
01:02:21Uh-oh.
01:02:23And a chop block by Bubba Ray.
01:02:26The 325 pound Bubba Ray Dudley with that chop block.
01:02:29In comes King.
01:02:31Yes, it was very effective.
01:02:33Stacy, stay out of harm's way.
01:02:34You better come over here.
01:02:35My lap is the best seat in the house.
01:02:37King's going up.
01:02:39King down.
01:02:41Whoa, King!
01:02:43King on top, aiming for D-Von Dudley.
01:02:46Inadvertently caught his own partner, the Big Show.
01:02:49King laid out the Big Show.
01:02:51And Bubba Ray Dudley.
01:02:53Gonna try to clear the scratch here.
01:02:55Cut the cover, and King stops the count.
01:02:58And Bubba Ray Dudley.
01:03:00Bubba Ray Dudley.
01:03:01Stops the count.
01:03:03And Bubba Ray tossed to the outside.
01:03:06Leaving King and the Big Show back in the ring.
01:03:13A little miscommunication, to say the least.
01:03:16A failure to communicate here between the challengers.
01:03:20And the Dudleys trying to come right back in and take advantage of this miscommunication.
01:03:24And that's not working.
01:03:26I don't know if that was the right thing to do, Dudleys.
01:03:32Bubba sent for the ride.
01:03:34Big boot, right in the size 22.
01:03:364E.
01:03:38Right to the head of Bubba Ray Dudley.
01:03:404E, look at this!
01:03:42And Bubba Ray avoided the contact.
01:03:44Unfortunately, King-
01:03:45Look at Stacey! Hey!
01:03:47Stacey, you should've laughed at that big guy!
01:03:49Oh, look out!
01:03:51D-Von.
01:03:53Wait a minute, Bubba Ray just took the turnbuckle pad off this turnbuckle here.
01:03:57Who's exposed that metal turnbuckle?
01:03:59King on the outside.
01:04:01Oh, man!
01:04:03The 3D to the exposed turnbuckle.
01:04:05The 500 pounder.
01:04:08Just ate the steel and the Dudleys win it.
01:04:11The winners of this match, and still,
01:04:13World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champions,
01:04:16The Dudley Boyz!
01:04:18Man, it was not a pretty match.
01:04:21No, but, you know, we heard Vince McMahon say earlier,
01:04:23he who laughs last, laughs loudest.
01:04:25And I think Stacey's getting the last laugh on the Big Show right now.
01:04:28He may have tanned her backside, but he's laid out.
01:04:32Two small mistakes that became larger than life.
01:04:37And there's the second one.
01:04:40Big Show aiming for his adversary.
01:04:43Look at Stacey laughing, but that was a mistake.
01:04:46It's making mistakes.
01:04:48It gave the Dudleys time to do this to the Big Show.
01:04:51Watch Big Show's face!
01:04:53Boom!
01:04:55Right into that exposed turnbuckle.
01:04:57And that bolt, that steel,
01:04:58catching Big Show right in the face.
01:05:00And the Dudleys are still
01:05:02the undisputed Tag Team Champions.
01:05:05Oh, Stacey, yeah!
01:05:28But the hazards are real.
01:05:30No matter who you are, whatever you do,
01:05:33please, don't try this at home.
01:05:59and you may receive a call from a WWF Superstar.
01:06:02It's quick and it's easy.
01:06:04So you better watch out, you better not cry,
01:06:06and you better not pout.
01:06:08Because tis the season to buy all your holiday gifts
01:06:10from WWFShopZone.com.
