This could be interesting, although I would have prefered an actual InVasion diary that just the aftermath of it.

Should be good. Hope you like it enough to stick with it. Other than that, not too much to comment on until a show is posted.

World Wrestling Federation Presents... WWF RAW Monday 19th November 2001 Charlotte, North Carolina Live on TNN[/color] The opening video package is not seen, instead we see Mick Foley packing up his bags, as Vince McMahon walks in, in which he seems angry until reluctantly smiling for a second, asking Mick if he seriously didn't know that he had assigned Foley as WWF Commissioner yet Mick created the WWF Intercontinental Championship vs WCW United States Championship Unification match and all. Foley said that after the history him and Vince have had, he thought that this was all a joke and Mick was there, just to be tipped over by McMahon once again. Vince nods slowly and shakes Foley's hand, saying that it's been a pleasure working with him, and Mick can take all the time he needs.The opening video package plays, showing us an edited video package, ignoring all of the Alliance's superstars who of course failed last night at Survivor Series and were all fired.The show opening fireworks shoot at the stage as the audience boom, Jim Ross begins to commentate about last night's happenings before the camera panned to show the Alliance's Paul Heyman still sitting as the color commentator. JR asks why the hell Paul was doing here before Paul says that announcers didn't count. Paul then tells JR that he's gonna get on the microphone about something. With that he wanders into the ring with a microphone, not even using the ring steps, as he began to blast Jim Ross, saying how he was once a big booker in professional wrestling, he created ECW then got bitch slapped by Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley when she insisted Paul go to the announce desk during the Invasion by the Alliance, WCW and ECW. Paul screams that for the last several months he's been trapped behind a desk with a bumbling idiot screaming ridiculous things out. Paul tells JR that he can take his color commentator spot and shove it up his ass because Paul quits! That's when security all came out to the ring, as Paul tried to escape over the barricade but fell. Security dragged Paul out as a royal theme played as Jerry "King" Lawler made his way out to the arena for the first time since February! Lawler fills Paul's spot as we continue with the show.- - - - - Commercial Break - - - - -Trish Stratus defeated Jacqueline to retain the WWF Womens Championship[/color] in 4:55. This was a fairly okay match, but it didn't really do much but implement that the WWF Womens Championship will be more respected now it's back, as this was its first appearance on WWF Television since Chyna's defense against Lita at Judgment Day. Jacqueline tried her best, with some nice stiff kicks but Trish eventually hit a sunset flip from the second rope for the win. *3/4[/color] Trish Stratus begins to celebrate with the WWF Womens Championship as Jerry Lawler repeatedly yelled with permission from Jim Ross, 'puppies', of course, his favourite word. Stratus walks out of the ring and up the rampway as we go to the backstage area.We see William Regal confusingly wander through the halls of the backstage area, as he runs into Chris Jericho. Jericho asks why Regal is even here tonight after The Alliance got their asses handed to them last night at Survivor Series and were all fired. Regal says that Vince said he could show up tonight, before being cut off by Jericho saying that he doesn't care what Vince says, nor what anybody says, Jericho tells Regal to continue, as Jericho wants to get some ***** publicity.We see Mick Foley 'observing' an edition of Playboy on his chair behind a desk with alot of boxes as the door slams, Foley quickly getting up and acting like he was packing his things, but he stopped as he saw Edge, laughing as the two embraced in a manly hug, the two joking, Edge saying that Mick did a fantastic job of acting there and said that he doesn't blame Mick looking at this month's Playboy. Mick tells Edge that he'll miss their chats as the two wish each other the best of luck, Edge leaving.The theme of Chris Jericho played into the arena as the audience gave him a mixed reaction following Jericho's assault on The Rock during the Winner Takes All match last night following being eliminated. Jericho begins to say that what happened last night, was the true Chris Jericho. Last night, his attack on The Rock was the beginning of his mean streak. Jericho says that last night, he was disrespected by the World Wrestling Federation and The Alliance when it was a whole conspiracy against him, The Rock, him, Steve Austin and Kurt Angle were in the match when he was eliminated, and they all hated his guts really. Jericho tells Undertaker that if he wants to get in his face, understand his opinion first, remember that he has held the WWF Championship, that he's been a primetime player. Jericho claims that he has never been shown any respect or showmanship apart from his comedy, and that's the only reason why the audience love him. Jericho tells everybody that it's too late, and he will have to make a main event status the hard way.- - - - - Commercial - - - - -We go to Vince McMahon's office as he is seated, grinning at a replay of the Survivor Series' Winner Takes All match where The Rock pinned Steve Austin to win the match for the WWF. The door was then heard as in came Kurt Angle asking if Vince was still watching the match from last night. Vince says that it is a memorable moment in the history of professional wrestling, and he'll be watching it this time next year. Angle tells Vince that Stone Cold Steve Austin is here, William Regal from the defunct Alliance is here and Rob Van Dam is smoking in the no smoking area. Vince tells Angle that he has a plan and there is nothing to worry about. Vince says that tonight, he will make Austin a deal he can't refuse, as he will make Austin a deal he cannot refuse. Kurt laughs and asks if he can go after Regal, but Vince says no, telling Angle to collect Regal to bring him to his office in a little while.The Dudley Boyz defeated Albert and Scotty 2 Hotty in a non-title match.[/color] in 7:02. This was a fairly okay match. The Dudley Boyz still show to entertain as the unified WWF Tag Team Champions, but this was almost a walk in the park for them here. Albert had the rush of fury in the opening moments before Scotty got tagged in, got isolated with after his Worm on D-Von Dudley was cut off by a clothesline from Bubba Ray. The Dudley Boyz eventually felt Albert's wrath as he got the tag and began to set up for a gorilla press slam on D-Von only for Bubba to nail Albert with a forearm to the spine and a massive 3D gave him the win. **1/4[/color] The Dudley Boyz began to celebrate with the WWF Tag Team Championships as they began to head to the backstage area before we hear the theme of the APA play, as they came out and met the Dudley Boyz eye-to-eye, the two teams exchanging some words caught on from the camera, as The Dudley Boyz began to head to the backstage area with Stacy Keibler.We go to the office of Mick Foley once again as he's still observing the Playboy magazine, the boxes on the desk still as he rushes to his feet upon the sound of his door. Al Snow walks in, wearing 'Mr Socko' around his hand, immediately bringing a grin to Foley's face. Snow tells Foley that he remembers the good old days were they both hung out together, alot more than they do nowadays, what with Mick getting into the big leagues and all. Foley tells Al to not worry as he has something that he's sure will indeed please Snow. He brings Head out of one of the boxes to a reaction from the audience. Snow grins, shaking Foley's hand and leaving.The APA defeated Kaientai[/color] in 3:04. This was really a squash match. Kaientai didn't do any monologue anime style, instead they came out, waved their flags and rushed down to the ring. They didn't do anything but have a tiny few shots. Faarooq took out Sho Funaki with a Spinebuster as a super-stiff Clothesline From Hell took TAKA Michinoku's head off for the win! I'll give this quarter of a star for the finish, the way the sold it. *1/4[/color] The APA begin to celebrate, as Bradshaw gets on the microphone reminding us that it was him and his drinking buddy, Faarooq who started up the tiny coalition against the invading Alliance, and it soon became the whole WWF fighting the Alliance. Faarooq mentions that the only reason that the Dudley Boyz have a job in the WWF is because they have the WWF Tag Team Championship and want to take them down at WWF Vengeance, come Sunday 9th December.We go to the office of Vince McMahon where he is seated on the phone to somebody unsatisfied with his position in the WWF before cutting off the call as there is a knock on the door. Vince gets to his feet as William Regal walks in, wearing a WWF logo polo shirt. Vince compliments Regal on the shirt, William saying that he gave him it when Vince appointed him as the Commissioner. Vince asks Regal why he did what he did earlier this month, and turned his back on the WWF for the fading Alliance. Regal tells Vince that he was convinced by numerous people to join the Alliance, and so he did, though now he regrets it. Vince smirks as he tells Regal to go mingle with some people and meet him in the ring in a little while.Rob Van Dam defeated Matt Hardy to retain the WWF Hardcore Championship[/color] in 8:20. What a match this was, I enjoyed this match and ever since the Invasion Angle began, the WWF Hardcore Championship division has gained some major prestige, through the fantastic Summer series between Matt's brother Jeff and RVD himself. Matt was obviously accompanied by Lita as a chair, a trash can and a kendo stick came in to play. Good fast-paced action really. Lita humorously hit the Moonsault on RVD at one point for a near fall as Matt gave Lita a kiss and told her to sit at ringside to some laughs. Matt then got in a grapple in the middle, both men fighting for power as Jeff Hardy came down to the ring, wearing tape around his ribs, as he pulled a big ladder out from under the ring and set it up, hitting Whisper in the Wind but hitting his brother! RVD kicked Jeff out of the ring as he hit the Five-Star Frog Splash for the win. ***1/4[/color] Rob Van Dam begins to celebrate to a nice reaction from the audience, heading towards the backstage area, still the WWF Hardcore Champion as Lita attends to Jeff Hardy, still down from the Whisper in the Wind stunt in the match. Lita helps Jeff to his feet as Matt Hardy sits up, a pissed off look on his face as he asks Jeff why he did it. Jeff goes to help his brother to his feet only for Matt to shake his head and roll out of the ring, not in the mood for brotherly love tonight.An advertisement for WWF Vengeance is shown, it's live on pay-per-view, Sunday 9th December 2001. Triple H was shown in the advertisement.- - - - - Commercial - - - - -The theme of Vince McMahon plays once again as he cockily walks out to the arena happily, to a mixed reaction as some of the audience still chose to bore the Chairman of the Board. Vince climbed into the ring as he happily thanks the audience for showing up at his creation, WWF RAW. Vince mentions that back in 1993, there was no other primetime Monday night program, and if there was, like when WCW Monday Nitro premiered in 1995, it would of been wiped out and finished, just like WCW with the Alliance last night at Survivor Series. Vince welcomes out William Regal as he came out to his theme and a lot of boos. Regal climbs into the ring as Vince tells Regal to tell the audience in attendance why he chose to betray the WWF for the dying Alliance earlier this month. Regal repeats what he said in the previous backstage segment as Vince asks him if he wants his job back. Regal pleads before Vince tells him to get on his knees and beg. Regal seriously does some begging but Vince tells Regal that he has a deal for Regal, and that deal is that if William Regal beats The Rock this Thursday on SmackDown, he will get his job back. Vince laughs as he pretends to kick Regal, making the former employee scared as he fell back onto his ass.We go to the backstage area where again Mick Foley stood, this time removing a photograph from the wall of him and Terry Funk fighting on RAW in 1998 as he smiles, the office now bare except from five or six boxes, Foley chuckles as the door opens, a rusty old voice saying 'we truly are old mad bastards huh, Mick?' Mick turns around to see Terry Funk as the audience give him a huge applause. Mick and Terry hug as Funk tells him he's proud of him for what he's done for the hardcore wrestling part of the business. Mick tells Funk he's been like a Father figure to him during his wrestling career and thanks him for everything. Funk tells Mick he's always there if he ever has time for another deathmatch down in Texas. Foley laughs as Funk leaves.We go to the locker room of Billy Gunn as he's dressed in red shorts, and Chuck Palumbo confusingly walks in, dressed in red trunks as Chuck begins to thank Billy for helping Palumbo keep his job, here in the World Wrestling Federation. Billy tells Chuck not to mention it as Billy mentions the two are now going to have to team up against Big Show and Kane tonight, Chuck telling Billy it won't be easy, but they could do it. They have a 'friendly' hug.We see The Undertaker wandering in the backstage area, the announcers, Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler put over Taker meeting Chris Jericho in the main event, in a match all about respect.Big Show and Kane defeated Billy Gunn and Chuck Palumbo[/color] in 4:32. This wasn't really a match, but a way for Big Show and Kane to get over and advance this very bizarre storyline between Billy Gunn and Chuck Palumbo. The two members of Team WWF from last night's Survivor Series showed no weakness against this team, though Gunn and Palumbo had some shots in, but for the main part, Show and Kane showed their dominance. Show eventually got ahold of Chuck and Billy coming from the top rope with a double axe handle, and then both Show and Kane chokeslammed Gunn and Palumbo simultaneously for the win. *1/4[/color] Big Show and Kane begin to celebrate as Billy Gunn is left laid out on the canvas but Chuck Palumbo runs over and hugs Billy, trying to wake him up. Kane sees this and delivers another Chokeslam before Show turns around and grabs Kane suddenly by the throat! Kane then grabs Show by the throat as both men attempt to choke each other out, let me say that Show got a great heel reaction for grabbing Kane's throat. A few officials came to the ring and broke the two giants up.We see Mick Foley finally finish up on packing his boxes, as he goes to leave his office, looking back at the empty room before grabbing one of his boxes and pulling out one of his old referee jackets as he takes off his WWF commissioner jacket and puts on the referee shirt, looking at the camera and saying that as his curtain call as WWF Commissioner, he wants to go out with making himself as the special guest referee of Undertaker/Jericho!- - - - - Commercial - - - - -Chris Jericho fights The Undertaker to a non-finish as Mick Foley is special guest referee[/color] in 11:23. This was quite a good match here between two fantastic performers that excel in different styles, obviously Jericho more of a quick and fast-paced technical style whereas Taker concentrates in the hard-hitting brawling style. The two men fought back and forth as Jericho was tormented by Taker in the early goings of the match. Foley got bumped at the four-minute mark by Jericho 'accidentally' as he rushed for a weapon to take down Taker with but Foley got up afterwards and forced Y2J to drop the weapon! Jericho continued to fight Taker however as the two continued to brawl as Mick began to get in Y2J's face! The two got in an argument before Taker rolled into the ring and struck FOLEY over the head with the chair!
The Undertaker dropped the chair as he looked at the unconscious Mick Foley, then looking at Chris Jericho and yelling to Jericho, "As much as I hate your guts, you've got a point". Taker climbed out of the ring, walking up the rampway pissed as Jericho looked unsure of what just happened.
We cut to the backstage area where Stone Cold Steve Austin was making his way through the backstage area, though no sign of Debra, Austin had his WWF Championship in hand, the audience cheering.
The theme of the WWF Champion, Stone Cold Steve Austin played once again into the arena as the crowd erupted, the man himself walking down the rampway, en route for the ring as he walked around, getting hyped up for the microphone. Austin begins to talk about Vince McMahon and his past with the man, mentioning that Stone Cold is one of the most barbaric WWF Champions in the history of professional wrestling and if Vince takes away his title by choosing not to side with him, he will be one of the biggest cowards in the history of professional wrestling. The theme of Vince McMahon played once again at that point, the crowd booing now as McMahon began to make his way out to the rampway as he also began to talk about their checkered past. Vince tells Austin that he has indeed been one paranoid son of a bitch and threw their relationship away by turning on WWF for the Alliance and the only reason he's here tonight is because he's holding the WWF Championship. Vince then tells Austin that he has finally signed somebody that will make a difference, and will make Vince's life a whole lot easier in this continuing war against Stone Cold. The lights go out randomly at that point, as they return to see BILL GOLDBERG in the ring! He Spears Austin down to the canvas as the crowd are in utter shock! Vince laughs as Goldberg stands tall in the ring, WWF RAW goes off the air![/center][/font]

Good to see that old Raw graphic. Reminds me of the good 'ol days. The show was well written and it was booked decently. 6 matches? Sheesh. I'm kinda upset Van Dam went over Hardy because Hardy's title reigns are just 'my' thing. Not much I can comment on because I didn't watch all that amount of wrestling back in this era but good show and good luck with your next. Drop a reply in to XBW if you get the time? Cheers.

Fantastic written show with plenty of segments seemed like a real raw to be honest. All the matches were solid and the main event was fantastic. Taker turning heel is great news. Austin/Goldberg won't be much of a great match but the hype surounding it should be godly. Give Goldberg a WWF Championship run sometime.

The show was fantastically written but there were too much italics for my taste. A lot of good segments but too little matches. Undertaker/Jericho was good, Undertaker turning heel? The Rock not being on the show was kind of disappointing. Triple H at Vengeance? Sounds good. Wasn't that supposed to be his original return date? Wasn't Jericho the WCW/World Champion at this time? Or was that The Rock? Can't remember. Goldberg spearing Austin was amazing. Goldberg/Austin feud will be amazing.

Goldberg arriving was a big surprise, and cool to see him as Vince's muscle. Jericho/Taker/Foley is interesting, and the Billy and Chuck situation struck me as funny.

The font looks good at first glance, but not sure about the whole show being in italics. Good win for Trish. Like how Jericho didn't really want Regal on his turf. Heh, forgot about Albert & Scotty as a tag team. Wonder whats up really with Mick and the Playboy. Kind of weird to be honest. Like Regal trying to suck up to Vince there. Wonder if you are going to do a feud there with the Hardyz. Billy & Chuck = solid. Interesting stuff with Show & Kane I suppose. Weird stuff with Taker, but cool I suppose. Big surprise there with Goldberg. But please, save Goldberg/Austin for Wrestlemania. There's no way it'd happen at Armageddon or something like that. Decent show, but it was way too long.

WRESTLING TO THE MAX! -- The feeling in the World Wrestling Federation is that they had to to finish off the InVasion Angle because the storyline was not as over as many had anticipated, though the WWF InVasion pay-per-view got a massive buyrate, the smart viewers of professional wrestling saw through the cracks and found it out to be yet one last burial for WCW and ECW, those who rivalled WWF in the past. Expect some Alliance members to join WWF's active roster, others to be released.
-- The reason Goldberg has only just debuted last night is because the World Wrestling Federation has been in negotiations with the former WCW Champion since WCW was bought out, though Goldberg's contract was not in the deal. WWF are still in negotiations with such stars as Sting and Ric Flair.
-- Expect for Stone Cold Steve Austin to face The Rock at WWF Vengeance in some sort of 'End Of An Era' match to unify the WWF and WCW Championships.
-- Chris Jericho is expected to form an uneasy alliance with The Undertaker regarding respect. The two may end up feuding in the end.
-- There was noticably alot of skits and segments in last night's edition of WWF RAW. This was because there was alot to get through and many turns were made due to a large part of the WWF roster being face following the Alliance's finishing.
-- WWF are wanting to keep Edge as WWF Intercontinental Champion for a lengthy period of time. Since WrestleMania X8 is planned for Toronto Skydome, it would make sense for Edge to hold it going into the biggest show in wrestling in his hometown.
-- Same could go for WWF European Champion, Christian, but being that he is a heel, odds are he'll just advance into some sort of program with some superstar.
-- Note Billy Kidman on the active WWF roster. WWF are pushing for him and Tajiri to try and kickoff a better cruiserweight division. They've taken away the WWF Light-Heavyweight Championship.
-- WWF management are wanting to get Rob Van Dam out of the WWF Hardcore Championship division and more up the card. Expect Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy to meet Rob Van Dam in a triple threat match with one of the Hardys winning, continuing on as Van Dam can progress up the card.

- Not a fan of starting the show with Trish/Jacqueline. - Serious Chris Jericho is great. Solid promo by him. - A APA/Dudley Boys feud has a hard fought bloody crazy angle all over it. That is would be fun to read, if done correctly. - Solid RVD/Matt Hardy match. I hope you actually keep the Jeff/Matt feud and not jut end it after a month. - Glad to see you didn’t have Regal kiss McMahon’s ass. - Kane/Big Show could be interesting match. - Pretty predictable that Foley was going to get attacked in the main event. - Goldberg coming in is actually awesome. Considering Austin/Goldberg has always been a dream match of sorts. I really, really hope that they don’t fight at Vengeance, though. - Long show. Nothing really important happened, until the end. Average show.

World Wrestling Federation Presents... WWF SmackDown! Thurday 22nd November 2001 Fayetteville, North Carolina Aired on UPN- The opening video package for SmackDown airs, to the sound of "Beautiful People" by Marilyn Manson as it shows every WWF superstar, really. We go to the live arena where pyrotechnics go off and the crowd are booming for tonight's edition of WWF SmackDown from Fayetteville! Michael Cole and Jerry "King" Lawler announce that the main event features Rob Van Dam battling The Undertaker plus William Regal vs The Rock and former WCW Champion, Goldberg will appear on SmackDown for the first time ever! - We hear the theme of Stone Cold Steve Austin ring throughout the arena as the crowd erupt in cheers, now that Steve Austin is seemingly a face once again, Austin comes out with the WWF Championship, as always in his hand as he storms down the rampway and into the ring, not looking too pleased about what happened on Monday at WWF RAW. He began to talk about what has happened recently, like on WWF RAW and at Survivor Series. Austin told the Alliance that he would never turn on them for the WWF but they didn't believe them and it was Kurt Angle who caused it, and now Austin is so ticked off at Angle that he wants him tonight! Austin then says that there's also the roadblock from the past known as Vince McMahon biting him on the ass with that 'big pile of crap' called Goldberg. Austin tells Goldberg that he may be undefeated, but Stone Cold Steve Austin will always come out on top. Austin then tells us that he's going to find Kurt Angle no matter what. Austin leaves. = = = = = B = R = E = A = K = = = = =- Match #1: Christian defeated Tazz to retain the WWF European Championship [/color] in 7:11. This was quite a good way to kick off WWF SmackDown this week in the ring, these two exchanged quite a bit of brawling offense as Christian was like the underdog in this match despite being booed into it. Tazz decimated Christian quite a bit in this contest as Christian had some cowardly offense in. Tazz had alot of suplexes in there, it's obvious they're his specialty [well...duh!], anyways, Tazz went to set up for the Tazzmission but Christian had his hand on the rope as he low-blowed Tazz before hitting the Unprettier for the win! **1/4[/color] - Christian rolls out of the ring as he grabs the WWF European Championship. Christian began to struggle up the rampway before being grabbed at ringside by Tazz, who rolls out of the ring and applies the Tazzmission right on the floor! We then see Test come onto the screen as he slams a lead pipe right into the spine of Tazz! Test and Christian roll Tazz into the ring and stomp away at Tazz before Edge runs down to the ring, making the save as he Spears Test and clotheslines Christian over the top rope! - We go to the backstage area where William Regal was lurking around, before he runs into Kurt Angle, who smirks and asks Regal how he's gonna end up taking down The WCW Champion, The Rock for his job tonight, on SmackDown when he can't even pull off a turn to the Alliance right? Regal jokes and asks Angle what he means as the two soon escalate into a scwabble over who had the better turn from WWF to the Alliance before Regal tells Angle that Austin is right behind you. He runs away as Regal laughs, then turning around to show The Rock breathing down his neck. Rock tells Regal that tonight, Regal will regret everything bad he's done for the WWF. - We go to the office of Vince McMahon as he's on the phone before there's a door sounded in the background and Test with WWF European Champion, Christian walk in. Vince asks what the two Alliance rejects want, before Test mentions that he's always had respect for Vince, before saying that after what just happened, he suggests it's best for him to fight Edge with his WWF Intercontinental Championship tonight. Vince chuckles and tells Test that he's always been a fairly good employee so he will give him a chance, Vince tells Christian that he might not be so lucky. - Triple H is seen in the WWF Vengeance 2001 advertisement, showing him standing around in an empty ring. Vengeance is live on Sunday 9th December 2001 on pay-per-view. - We see Jonathan Coachman in the backstage area as he is standing by with Big Show as he asks Show what happened on RAW with Kane. Show told Kane that Kane was walking around acting like he was the better man who used the Chokeslam as a finishing move. Show told Kane that tonight, he will show Kane how the real wrestlers do it, and not as half-assed as Kane will ever do. - Bradshaw defeated Chuck Palumbo[/color] in 7:44. This was actually a pretty stiff hard-hitting match between two tag team superstars. Billy Gunn accompanied Chuck Palumbo to the ring as Faarooq did Bradshaw, both not-wrestling superstars avoiding each other. But at one point, Faarooq clotheslined Billy Gunn following Gunn tripping up Bradshaw and he got ejected from ringside. Palumbo hit the Jungle Kick at one point, but Bradshaw reversed it into a nice T-bone suplex. Bradshaw eventually finished off Palumbo with the Clothesline from Hell. - Bradshaw began to celebrate as Billy Gunn jumped him, Gunn stomping away at Bradshaw. We then saw Faarooq run down the rampway but D-Von Dudley came out of nowhere and took out Faarooq with a clothesline! Bubba Ray Dudley then appeared too as Stacy Keibler watched on, Bubba and D-Von celebrating over the two unconscious APA members. = = = = = B = R = E = A = K = = = = =- We go to the locker room as Rob Van Dam is hanging out with Jeff Hardy as Van Dam tells Hardy that he's always been fond of him, more than his brother, anyways. Van Dam calls Jeff 'cool' and tells Jeff that he's got to live for the moment, and just go out and try and steal the show with your unique style, while you can because it won't be there forever. Jeff agrees as the two go in to shake hands but Matt Hardy storms in, Lita on his arm as Matt questions Jeff for hanging with this loser, the man he was meant to hit last Monday on RAW. Jeff apologises as Matt tells Jeff that they've got a match, Jeff reluctantly leaves. - We see Kurt Angle rushing down a corridor as he looks around to see nobody, resting on a desk, there in which he sees the WWF Championship - Stone Cold Steve Austin's WWF Championship resting on the table. He hears Austin's voice saying thanks to some staff member for his help in searching for Angle as Kurt high-tails it down the hallway. - We go to the live arena where there is silence, the announcers still hyping up the main events, plus Test against Edge for the WWF Intercontinental Championship. We suddenly hear the theme of Goldberg as the crowd immediately erupt to a very mixed reaction, the big man himself appearing on the rampway, walking down the ramp to the ring with the pyrotechnics going off. He climbs into the ring as Goldberg begins to talk about change. Goldberg told the fans that change happens alot, and it's all because of the fact that people don't want to see a monster of a man like him anymore, and that he was behind the uprising of WCW aside from the rollercoaster, New World Order [that got a good pop]. Goldberg tells us that fans want to see a stereotypical badass called Stone Cold Steve Austin instead. Goldberg calls Stone Cold out, telling him that he'll be in the parking lot and he doesn't care who he's after, Kurt Angle, The Rock or himself, Austin's ass is his come the time Goldberg gets his hands on him. - The Undertaker defeated Rob Van Dam in a non-title match[/color] in 9:19. This was a non-title contest, apparently per request of The Undertaker himself. Taker came out to alot of heat, coming out solo as well, just going out there to kick some former Alliance ass. Rob Van Dam did not go down without a fight however. He wouldn't go down as Taker continued to pound RVD to the canvas, but was never interested in going for the victory himself. Van Dam had alot of retaliation moves in there. Taker did a nice legdrop on the edge of the apron, sandwiching RVD, too. Van Dam eventually knocked Taker off of his feet with a sweet roundhouse kick but when he went up to the top rope, Matt Hardy ran down to the ring and shoved him off the top rope, crotching him! Taker hit the Last Ride for the win. **1/2[/color] - The Undertaker began to celebrate as Rob Van Dam recovered on the canvas, cradling his ribs as he stared down Matt Hardy, who just simply walked up the rampway. The Undertaker rolled under the bottom rope out of the ring as he walked up the rampway, only to be blocked by the sight of Diamond Dallas Page. Taker asked DDP what the hell he was doing here as he said, and I quote, "Vince rehired me, to take care of you". Taker looked confused as Bam Bam Bigelow then came from behind, slamming the chair into the back of his head! Bam Bam Bigelow and Diamond Dallas Page stood over Undertaker! = = = = = B = R = E = A = K = = = = =- We go to the Vince McMahon's office as he's joking around, watching Goldberg spear Stone Cold Steve Austin over and over again on a television screen as Chris Jericho storms in, as he looks Vince in the eyes and asks him why the hell Bam Bam Bigelow and Diamond Dallas Page just came in and took out The Undertaker. Vince jokes and tells Jericho that he has to watch his attitude, because after what happened at Survivor Series, where Chris himself almost killed WWF, attacking The Rock, Vince has low morale for Jericho and DDP just so offered to take care of it, personally. Jericho reluctantly storms out. - Edge defeated Test to retain the WWF Intercontinental Championship[/color] in 8:37. These two had a pretty good match last Sunday at Survivor Series. These two men had one heck of a match here, these two Canadians had alot of potential to steal the show, and it almost succeeded The Undertaker and Rob Van Dam's match, actually. The crowd were booming for Edge, he has to be one of the greatest stars never to win a major Championship. Interference was banned here, so there was no way for anybody else to get involved. Edge downed Test eventually with the Spear for the win. **1/4[/color] - Edge got a big response from the crowd as he celebrated with the WWF Intercontinental Championship belt, while Christian walked down the rampway, a smug look on his face. Christian climbed into the ring as Edge dropped his belt and got on the defensive but Christian showed that he wasn't going to do anything. Christian grabbed a microphone as he begins to talk, saying how Edge and him used to be so tight, it was unbelievable. He mentions that he misses that, but now he's moved on, he said maybe they should put on a truce for a moment. Christian mentions that it was Test's idea to take out Tazz. He says that Christian himself was never 'in' with the Alliance. Christian gives Edge something to think about, mentioning that maybe Tazz and Test are in cohoots. Edge thinks before Tazz begins to walk down to the ring, to a fan favourite reaction. Tazz climbs into the ring and stares at Test, seated up in the corner before shaking his head. Tazz snatches the microphone from Christian, telling him not to believe. Edge nods and goes to shake Tazz's hand but Tazz hits the Tazzplex on Edge! Christian grins as now Tazz was in on the situation against Edge! - We go to a backstage segment from earlier today where Sho Funaki and WWF Cruiserweight Champion, Tajiri were seen talking in Japanese, before the camera was suddenly taken out, confusingly not. - Tajiri defeated Spike Dudley in a non-title match[/color] in 4:55. This was really used as a filler match, these two had some chemistry, but nothing really special. There was nothing athletic or too good to note as Spike Dudley came in and gave Tajiri some shots, pretty basic stuff. Tajiri fought like a heel, his kicks were pretty stiff, but then again when aren't they, and Spike tried for a Dudley Dog at one point, only to fail. That's when Kaientai ran down to the ring, dressed in white and red, not blue tonight, as they got onto the apron and distracted Spike, before Tajiri hit the Buzzsaw Kick for the win! **[/color] - Tajiri began to celebrate. Note that there was no sign at all for Torrie Wilson by the way. TAKA Michinoku and Sho Funaki joined him in the ring as they gave some sort of hand-pose to a mixed reaction. - We see William Regal making his way down a hallway to some boos as we see WCW Champion, The Rock walk down another hallway to a LOUD reaction. The main event is up next! = = = = B = R = E = A = K = = = = =- We go to the backstage area where Kurt Angle was seen sneaking out of a door into the parking lot, sneaking behind cars as he quickly climbed into the car and drove away! The announcers wondered where Stone Cold Steve Austin was. - William Regal defeated The Rock in a non-title match in No Holds Barred[/color] in 12:09. This was a pretty decent main event between a midcarder, who is one of the best talent to come out of England, battling one of the most charismatic superstars in the WWF. The Rock just went out there and went nuts, he went through the entire routine, looking out at the audience at numerous times, while kicking Regal's ass. Regal however eventually used a chair to get ahead, and Rock's nose was bloody in no time. Regal's uppercuts caused Rock to struggle against Rock, but Rock still had slightly more offense. Eventually, Rock hit the spinebuster and went for the People's Elbow but then Stone Cold Steve Austin rushed into the ring, and gave the Stunner to Rock! Austin rolled out of the ring as William Regal hooked the Rock's leg for the win! **3/4[/color] - William Regal struggled under the ropes as he laid out on the outside floor, as Stone Cold Steve Austin grinned at The Rock, Rock barely sitting up, just wondering why Austin did what he did! The announcers hype The Rock vs Steve Austin for WWF Vengeance 2001, to unify the WWF and WCW Championships as SmackDown goes off the air...[/center][/font]

Smackdown was a solid read, definitely two exciting shows which is great to see. Bigelow and Page coming in was awesome, I seriously marked out for Bam Bam Bigelow. Regal getting the win in the main event was surprising but a great decision, I would hope he gets a title push somewhere down the line but with you wanting Edge and Christian to keep their titles for mania I can't see it going anywhere.
