As of late WCW has been signing many ECW workers, and well the best ones. WWF decided to sign Rob Van Dam, a very talented worker. He is currently in MCW, but could be called up soon.
-WWF has come to the release of The Honky Tonk Man. Expect more to come soon. WWF has decided to get rid of some "Dead weight."

Matt, The Headbangers were briefly NWA Tag Team Champions.
I think this was a very good show, very realistic. I feel two title changes is a bit much, but both were necessary in my opinion. Waltman back is good, and should boost D-X a little after the loss of Shawn Michaels. I hope we see an Austin/Vader feud for the title. In fact, I'm pretty sure I'd get down on one knee if you did.

Not the most original way to open RAW, but it certainly worked. Austin stunning McMahon built his character well, and I like that very muchly. I haven't heard of The Headbangers, well, apart from whichever one was Chaz, but I'm sure them dropping the NWA Tag Championships was the best move. Bob and Bart should make for much better champions. A squash match in favour of Kurrgan is great, as he was a prety legit looking big man. I'm not too sure about the dissention in The Nation, however, if it means Rock breaking out on his own, then I'm all for it. A strong Kane promo, and another match versus Undertaker, this time in a steel cage, should be brutal. No idea about either team or why they are paired, but Goldust taking victories is always good. Not sure about his gimmick, as I've seen pics of it. It was pretty awful looking. I like DX recruiting Sean Waltman, but using him under that name I'm not sure about. I always thought X-Pac worked well, what with D-Generation X and that. The promo was good, and enjoyable. Jarrett DQ possibly setting up him versus Steve Blackman for the Intercontinental Championship? I would like that muchly. I like the 'IDC' attitude of Austin. The main event was a good choice of match, and while not original, was enjoyable. The Outlaws getting the Tag Team Titles back certainly changes the way the tag scene looks, and it was a good way to close the show. Overall, this was an enjoyable show, and I think you've got this time down man!

WWF @ Syracuse, NY - On Center - March 31, 1998 The pyro kicks off and Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler greet us. They announce that tonight, Undertaker returns to Raw, Stone Cold takes on Triple H in a Champions vs. Champions match, and what does Vince McMahon have planned for Steve Austin?
Are you ready?[/u][/color] The theme of DX hits to boos. Triple H, Chyna and Sean Waltman make their way out to the ring. Triple H has a microphone and begins to speak. He says that everyone has began to ask why they helped The New Age Outlaws regain the tag team championships last week in a hardcore match. He then says that last week he promised that DX would be stronger than ever, and that he is keeping his word. He then introduces the newest members of DX, The Tag Team Champions, The New Age Outlaws! They come out to a few boos. Road Dogg takes the microphone and says that Triple H is damn right. Right about DX being stronger than ever. With The Tag Champions, The European champion, Sean Waltman, and Chyna, DX will be unstoppable! Billy then takes the microphone and says if your not down with that, we got two words for ya, as Triple H, Sean, Gunn, and Road Dogg say Suck It. DX's theme hits and we head to break. Break[/b][/u] We return to see Vince McMahon pull up in a limo. He comes out smirking and looking confident. This can only be bad news for Steve Austin. The Rock N'Roll Express and Steve Blackman def. The New Midnight Express and Jeff Jarrett(w/Jim Cornette and Tennessee Lee)[/u][/color] An interesting tag team match here, as Jarrett teamed up with The New Midnight Express, who are in Jeff's old faction. They didn't work as well as Rock N' Roll and Blackman. Also, another problem was that Jeff tried to avoid Blackman, which got the NME a little ticked off. The match went back and forth for a few minutes in a match that was used to build up two feuds. The ending came when Blackman had enough of Jarrett, so he went after Jarrett and chased him and Lee up the stage. Meanwhile. Bart Gunn got distracted by this, so Morton rolled him up for the three. After the The New Midnight Express got mad, so they attacked the Rock N'Roll express from behind. They laid them out as we went backstage. Backstage is The Nation. Jim Ross asks The Nation after the events of last week, is The Nation on the same page? Rock responds that it is obvious that there has been a little friction in The Nation. Rock then goes on to guarantee that soon enough that The Nation will be on the same page. Ross then asks what are they going to do about Ken Shamrock, who is clearly still after them. Rock responds by saying that tonight, Shamrock has a match with Faarooq, and if Ken wins, Rock will give Shamrock a title shot at Unforgiven! Faarooq looks shocked as we then head to a break. Break[/b][/u] Ken Shamrock def. Faarooq(w/The Nation) to earn a Intercontinental Title match at Unforgiven.[/b][/u] A fine match here, with Ken Shamrock taking on the Nation's leader. Faarooq didn't even now he was facing Ken tonight, so he was a bit shocked. Ken started the match off strong dominating Faarooq and following it up by a Belly to Belly suplex. Ken started to get pumped by Faarooq raked the eyes and hit a DDT. Faarooq then threw Ken into the ring post. The ref pulled Faarooq away. and then D-Lo kicked Ken's head right into the post! Faarooq then had control of the match until the end, where Ken got a seconded life and eventually locked in the Ankle Lock for the win. After the match Shamrock celebrated while The Nation didn't look happy. Backstage we see Kevin Kelly trying to get a word from Vince McMahon. He asks Vince what could he possibly have in store for the WWF Champion. Vince leaves no comment and walks away from Kevin. We then see L.O.D. making their entrance, Billy Gunn takes on Animal next! Break[/b][/u] An ad hypes Unforgiven. We then see Billy Gunn making his entrance. Billy Gunn(w/Road Dogg and Chyna) def. Animal(w/Hawk and Sunny)[/u][/color] An okay match here, but it was mainly used to build the Tag Title match at Unforgiven. L.O.D. got another huge pop here tonight. The match started off with Gunn gaining the upper hand, but it soon went to Animal. Animal held control of the match until Road Dogg grabbed his foot, then allowing Gunn to hit a neck breaker form behind. The match went back and forth again until the ending where Animal went for a power slam, but Road Dogg went to trip him, so Hawk ran over and took him down. While They brawled, Chyna distracted the ref, allowing Gunn to hit a low blow and roll up Animal for the three. Another video plays, hyping Val Venis leading into a break. Break[/b][/u] We come back to see Kane and Paul Bearer in the ring. Paul gets right the the chase and says that last week Kane challenged The Undertaker to a Steel Cage match. Paul Bearer then asks The Undertaker, does he accept? The Undertaker then makes his way out to the top of the stage. He says that Kane did put Undertaker through hell at Wrestlemania, but in the end, he came out at top. And that at Unforgiven, the scene will be no different. Because at Unforgiven, the Cage match will happen. Taker says that Kane has officially buried his own grave. And at Unforgiven, he will once again, Rest... In...., but Paul cuts him off. Paul says that this time Undertaker will Rest In Peace. And that Kane is going to chokeslam Undertaker to hell, and Undertaker will never, be in the WWF again! Undertaker then says Paul can say all he wants, but at Unforgiven, both him and Kane, will Rest In Peace. Undertaker's theme hits as we go to a break. Break[/b][/u] We come back to see a reply of undertaker confirming the Steel Cage match at Unforgiven. Marc Mero(w/Sable) def. Taka Michinoku[/u][/color] A decent match here, which was pretty back and forth. The match started off with the two locking up, Taka slipped out and kicked Mero in the knee. He then went to the top and hit a cross body! Mero got up and Taka hit a few punches to the head, he then went off the ropes but Mero caught him with a clothesline. The match continued to go back and forth which even saw it spill to the outside, where Taka leaped off the apron and jumped onto Mero. The bout ended when Taka went for a elbow dropped, but Mero moved. Mero then went to the top and hit him with a Merosault!He covers and gets the three! Has Mero earned him self a title shot? JR and King talk on commentary about the situation between Stone Cold and Vince McMahon. Owen Hart's theme then hits to cheers. He has a microphone and begins to speak. He says that at Wrestlemania he was screwed by DX. He said that he was so close to regaining the European Title, but that was all taken away! He says that he wants one more shot at Triple H for that title, but this time, nobody will be allowed at ringside. The theme of DX hits and Triple H makes his way out. He says he'll give Owen a title shot at Unforgiven, and he won't bring anyone to ringside with him. HHH says that he doesn't need anybody, because he knows he is better than Hart, and come Unforgiven, he'll prove it. Owen says that Triple H has a big mouth, and come Unforgiven, he'll shut it up when he pins Triple H 1.2.3., and becomes European champion. Hart leaves while Triple H makes his way down the ring for his match with Stone Cold. Break[/b][/u] We come back to see Kevin Kelly standing with Stone Cold. He asks Stone Cold does he have any idea what Vince has planned. He says that Vince is the owner of the WWF, and can do anything he wants here, so Stone Cold doesn't know what he will do, but as he said last week, he doesn't care what happens tonight because he will open up the can of whoop ass that he promised. Stone Cold says that once he's done whooping Triple H, he's going to call out Vince McMahon. WWF Champion Stone Cold vs. WWF European Champion Triple H went to a no contest.[/u][/color] This was a great main event, which went back and forth despite the no contest. The match started out with the two hitting each other with punches and with it eventually spilling to the outside. Stone Cold threw Triple H over thee announce table. JR and King scrammed while Triple H countered Steve and slammed his head into the table. Triple h then threw Stone Cold into the ring and took control. Triple H dominated Austin until Austin starting fighting back and whipped Tirple H and the ropes, and then followed it up with a DDT. The match went back and forth until the end. Austin got out of the pedigree, and hit the Stunner! Both men were down and the ref started to count to 10. At 3, VADER made his return to the WWF and picked Austin up, but hit a Vader Bomb! he threw Triple H out of the ring and continued the assault on Austin. Vader hit another Vader Bomb on Austin as Vince McMahon stood on the stage clapping. Vader stood over Austin as we faded away. Damn Chaz, lol jk [/font]

I love this year. There were a lot of challenges in keeping the main event scene going with Taker occupied and HBK leaving. Vader returning is awesome. The NWA stuff is fun. I hope Shamrock destroys everybody in this. Thanks for keeping this going despite people being lame.

WWF @ Philadelphia, PA - Corestates Center - April 13, 1998The pyro blasts off and we are greetedby JR and Jerry Lawler. They announce that tonight, Vader explains why he attacked Stone Cold Steve Austin last week!
IT'S VADER TIME Vince McMahon and Vader make their way out to the ring. Vince gets on the mic and says that it's true, Vader was what he had planned for Steve Austin. Vince said that Vader is a monster, and it took Kane to attack him with a wrench to take him down. Vince says that Austin has no chance against Vader, when he defends his title against him at Unforgiven! Vince vows that at Unforgiven, Vader will destory Steve Austin! And the WWF, will have a real champion! Not some redneck with a foul mouth that attacks authority figures! Vince then goes on to say that tonight, Steve Austin has a chance to see what he is going to face at Unforgiven, because tonight, Stone Cold teams up with Owen Hart to take on Vader and Triple H! Vince then says that not only is it Vader Time, but for Austin, it's doomsday time for Austin!
Break[/u][/color] A ad hypes Unforgiven next week. L.O.D. 2000 & Cactus Jack(/wSunny) def. D-Generation X(w/Chyna)A good six-man tag bout here, which saw L.O.D. and Cactus trying to get revenge for the past few weeks. The match started off with Animal and Road Dogg, but Sean soon got a blind tag, allowing him to hit a super-kick and gaining control of the match. Sean had all the control for a minute until Animal fought back and got a tag in Hawk, who took down Sean and hit Gunn with an elbow. The match went back and forth for the next few minutes with many tags. In the end, Animal was able to put Sean away with a powerslam. Backstage Micheal Cole is with Tennessee Lee and Jeff Jarrett. He asks them is Jeff scared of Steve Blackman? Jeff looks angry as Lee speaks. He tells Micheal that there is no chance in hell that he is. Jeff then speaks and says that he thinks Blackman is scared of Jeff, which is why Steve is trying to take all of these cheap shots! Jeff then says what he does to Aguila next is what will happen to Blackman if they ever meet again. Break[/u][/color] Aguila def. Jeff Jarrett(w/Tennessee Lee )[/u][/color] An ok match here, but Jeff was on offence for 75% of it. The bell rings and Jeff quickly goes to work on the you Aguila. He takes him down with a DDT and stomps on him. He locks Agulia in a headlock and keeps him down. Mid-way Agulia starts to gain momentum by kicking Jeff and then hitting a cross-body. Jeff soon gained momentum again though. In the end, Jeff was just taunting Aguila when Steve Blackman ran down to the ringside area. Jeff then started to yell at him, but Aguila rolled Jeff up for th three! Jeff was in dis-belief, but Steve ran in the ring so he ran out. Him and Lee backed up the ramp while Steve raised Agulia's hand. We go backstage to The Nation's locker room. Rock is starring at Faarooq, but he soon begins to speak. He asks Faarooq what happened last week. Faarooq said he lose to Ken Shamrock, because he set him up in a match, that he didn't even know about. Rock then says that's no excuse, but Faarooq responds by saying that Rock also loss to Ken. Rock then says that was a fluke, and that up-next D-Lo was going to beat Ken Shamrock. And to prove a point, The Nation will not be at ringside. Faarooq says we'll see about that. Faarooq and Rock then have a tense staredown. A video hypes Kurt Angle, who is set to debut in a few weeks. Break[/u][/color] Ken Shamrock def. D-Lo Brown[/u][/color] The bell rings and D-Lo Charges at Shamrock. Shamrock catches him and hits a belly to belly. Ken gets the upper-hand, but D-Lo quickly got some momentum with a drop kick. The match went back and forth from beyond there and it even went to the outside. D-Lo whipped Ken into the ring post and then the steel steps. D-Lo had the upper-hand until the end of the match, when Shamrock gained momentum again. Ken hit a belly to belly, but held on to D-Lo so he could lock in the ankle lock. D-Lo then quickly tapped out to it, After the match The Rock ran out to the ring but was caught by a take down! Ken then locked in the ankle lock on Rock, and didn't let go until The Nation came down and pulled Rock out of the ring. Rock looked like his ankle was in bad shape. Backstage Undertaker is in a room with a blue-light. He begins to speak about Kane. He says that he is fully aware that Kane will not rest until he has destroyed him. Undertaker says that at-first, he did not want to fight his own flesh and blood, but now, he needs to fight Kane, because if he doesn't, Kane will destory him. Kane wants to get rid of him so bad that he is challenged me to a cage match. Undertaker says he knows the only reason why Kane wanted a cage was so he could use it as a weapon. Undertaker then says that the cage will only be what takes Kane out, and will send him to his eternal damnation. Undertaker then says at Unforgiven, Kane will Rest In Peace. Break[/u][/color] We see a replay of Vince announcing Vader vs. Steve Austin at Unforgiven. The New Midnight Express(w/ Jim Cornette) def. The Headbangers to RETAIN the NWA Tag Team championships.[/b][/u] A good match here, but not as good as their one from a couple weeks ago. The match was cut short to 4 minutes because two minutes into it Bart injured his right hand. Despite it being so short it was a good match. It kicked off with neither team gaining an advantage, until Bart raking Mosh's eyes. Bart had control until he hurt his hand when he missed a fist drop on Mosh. He then tagged in Bob and stayed on the apron for the rest of the match. Bob Holly then battled back and forth with The Headbangers, but quickly got the win after hitting Thrasher with a Alabama Slam. We see a video showing the history of Owen Hart and Triple H and how their Unforgiven bout came about. Undertaker makes his way out to the ring for his match with Goldust, but he was attacked from behind from Kane. Kane stomped on Undertaker and then hit a body slam on the stage. Kane then took Taker down by the announce table and ripped it apart. Kane then chokeslammed Undertaker right through the table! Break[/u][/color] Before our main event, Marc Mero is talking to Sable. He's talking about his win last week, when Vince McMahon walks up to him. He elts him know that next, he's getting a title shot at Taka Michinoku Vader and Triple H def. Steve Austin and Owen Hart[/b][/u] A perfectly fine main event here, which went back and forth for a good 10 minutes. It started off with Owen chasing Triple H around the ringside area until he got hit by a clothesline by Vader. Vader threw him into the ring and got the upper hand. Hart soon fought back, but Triple H got the blind tag and hit a DDT. The match went back and forth and halfway through the match Vince McMahon made his way to to the ring. This distracted Austin, allowing Triple H to hit him from behind. He then went for a pedigree, but Austin countered it into a Stunner! He covered, but Vader broke it up. In the end, Austin was hitting Vader with a bunch of punches, and then hit a DDT. Triple H took a cheap shot at Hart, but Hart ducked and the two brawled. Stone Cold went off the ropes, but Vince grabbed his foot! While Steve yelled at Vince, Vader turned him around and hit a Vader Bomb! He pinned the champ for the three! Vader again stood over Austin as we went off the air. [/font]

-Awesome to see Stone Cold vs. Vader at In Your House, looking forward to the tag main event too. -LOD 2000 and Jack winning was the best call possible there. Good either way though. -Aguila over Jarrett is cool. Another match that's fine either way so far. -Shamrock over Brown I like the best. Good call and nice match for RAW. -TNME over Headbangers to retain was good. Nice to see their good reign so far. -Vader and HHH over Hart and Austin is solid. Great preview for Unforgiven; In Your House. -As usual, great show, Penguin. Keep it up. Really motivated to read this.

I really disagree with you getting rid of Shotgun, as you would be losing a decent amount of revenue. The signing of Rob Van Dam is good and a Vader push, if done right, may be orgasmic. Vader could be such a badass! It almost brings a tear to my eye, okay that is a hyperbole, but it is a bloody shame how poorly the WWF used Vader. Speaking of misused talent, you have one teaming with Steve Austin tonight! Owen Hart could be the face of World Wrestling Federation and I would honestly mark out for an Owen Hart main event push. I really dislike L.O.D 2000 (which is still one of the crappiest names in wrestling history. L.O.D is fine, but the 2000 is so lame) and Cactus Jack defeating DX does not sit right with me. DX had a lot of heat and I feel you kind of killed it a little bit. I would have at least had DX lose via disqualification. Aguila versus Jeff Jarrett would be an awkward match as I just do not think they would work well together. I really enjoy the tension growing between Faarooq and the Rock. D-Lo Brown losing to Ken Shamrock was the right call. The Undertaker’s promo seemed really simple, but so effective. I am really looking forward to – hopefully – seeing Kane destroy the Undertaker inside the fifteen foot steel cage. The New Midnight Express having a rematch with the Headbangers doesn’t interest me at all. Vader and Triple H defeating Steve Austin and Owen Hart is pretty good and a refreshing way to end Raw.
Overall, I think you have the time period down well and everything seems to be realistic; however, I think your diary is reminding me that the Attitude Era is not as good as I remember it being.
The Rock injured! WHATTTTTTT?

Kurt Angle def. MoshWWF @ Long Island, NY - Nassau Coliseum - April 20th, 1998The pyro settles and JR and King welcome us to Raw. They let us tonight that we will see the contract signing for Vader and Steve Austin, while in the main event, Triple H and The New Age Outlaws face L.O.D. 2000 and Owen Hart, but right now we get a word on the Intercontinental Championship Scene. Vince McMahon is backstage and announces that The Rock has been injured and the Intercontinental Championship has been vacated. So this Sunday, Ken Shamrock, Faarooq, Sean Waltman, and Cactus Jack face off in a Four Corners match for the title, and in a preview tonight, Cactus Jack looks for revenge as he faces Sean Waltman in a hardcore match.
Taka Michinoku def. Marc Mero(w/Sable) via Countout to RETAIN the Lightweight Championship[/u][/color] Raw opened up with a match, which was a bit surprising. This was a good bout here, and was a pretty enjoyable opener. The match started off with the two men trading grapples, but Taka soon got away and he used his high flying offence to get Mero off his feet. Mero soon got the advantage back, dodging a cross body and hitting a swinging neck breaker. Mero kept him grounded, until Take broke free again and hit a hurracarrana. The match went back and forth until the ending. Taka was on the outside and Mero climbed to the top rope. He went for the Merosault, but Taka moved and Mero went crashing into the Guard Rail! Taka slipped into the ring as the ref counted Mero out. Mero wakes up and looks mad as Taka holds up the title. Break[/u][/b] Backstage Kevin Kelly is with The Nation. He asks Faarooq how is The Nation going to deal with Rock being injured. Faarooq says that he is going to make sure that the Intercontinental Title stays with The Nation this Sunday, because He will win this Sunday, and that's how they will deal with it. Faarooq also says that hopefully during his recovery time, Rock gets his head on straight and all the cracks in The Nation will be filled. Jeff Jarrett(w/Tennessee Lee) def. Agulia(w/Steve Blackman)[/b][/u] A good match here, a lot more back and forth than last week. Jeff started off the match in control until Agulia started to fight back with kicks and a huge dropkick, knocking Jeff out of the ring. He then jumped over the top, landing on Jeff! The match contained to go back and forth, and it seemed like Jeff was shocked at how good Agulia was doing. Despite his effort, Jeff was able to put Agulia away with the figure four, despite Steve trying to will him on. After the match Steve check on Agulia as Jeff celebrated in the ring. Lee got on the mic and said to Blackman that this is what will happen to him come this Sunday. A video hypes Kurt Angle. It says he'll debut next week. Break[/u][/b] Sean Waltman def. Cactus Jack in a Hardcore match[/b][/u] This was more of a hardcore brawl then a wrestling match, to be honest, but it still was very enjoyable. About a good three minutes into it Cactus went to the outside and threw in a chair, kendo stick, and trash can, as Sean tried to dodge all the weapons. Cactus came in the ring, but Sean grabbed the kendo stick and hit Cactus in the head with it. He hit him with it a few more times, but dropped it so he could set up the chair. Sean picked up Cactus, but Cactus hit a low blow and gave Sean a DDT onto the chair! Sean was then busted open. Cactus covered, but only for a two. More weapons where used in this such a hockey sticks and steel steps, but the most memorable spot was when Cactus Jack gave Sean a pile driver right through the announce table! The match ended when Cactus was holding up a chair, but Sean super kicked it into Cactus' face, and then getting the three. Faarooq makes his way out to the ring and attacks Sean from behind. He then grabs a chair and hits Cactus Jack with it, but soon enough, Ken Shamrock came running down and he hit a belly to belly on Faarooq. He went for the ankle lock, but Faarooq slipped out of the ring. Ken pointed to Faarooq as we faded away. A video hypes Unforgiven, which airs This Sunday, live on PPV! Backstage we see DX in their locker room. Triple H says that what Sean just did to Cactus Jack tonight is only the future for DX. He then goes on to say that tonight they'll prove that, when they win the six man tag team match, and they will prove it again this Sunday, when DX walks out with the Tag Titles, Intercontinental Title, and The European Title. Triple H said that three weeks ago, he promised DX will be the most dominate it has ever been, and they will prove that this Sunday. And if you're not down with that, they got two words for ya. Break[/u][/b] The Rock N' Roll Express are in the ring and are ready for their match vs. The New Midnight Express. The NWA stable make their way out to the ring, but Bodacious Bart is missing. Jim gets on a microphone and says last week Bart damaged his right hand, and won't be able to compete for a few weeks. There for, The NWA is going to show their skill with someone else, because up next, Dan Severn will face Rick Morton! Dan Severn(w/The NWA) def. Rick Morton(w/Robert Gibson)[/u][/color] This was an ok match at best. Dan had control at first, but Rick quickly fought back, but it seemed like Rick was a bit shocked, because he thought he was in a tag match tonight, instead of a one on one bout. Rick had the upper-hand until Jim tripped him, letting Dan getting the advantage. The two went back and forth for two minutes, but Dan was able to put Rick away with an Armbar. Vader is backstage and says that he is unstoppable, and this Sunday, Austin has no chance this Sunday. Vader says after he destroys Austin this Sunday, he'll pin him 1,2,3, just like last week. But this time, he'll become WWF Champion. Break[/u][/b] Kane(w/Paul Bearer) def. Tom Brandi[/b][/u] The bell rings and Brandi lays a few punches to Kane, and then takes him down with a DDT. Tom taunts, but Kane gets back up and hits a big boot. Kane then picks him up and hits a choke slam 1...2..3. Kane picks Tom up, and hits another chokeslam. Kane picks him up again, and hits another chokeslam! Paul then gets on the mic and tells The Undertaker that come this Sunday, this is his fate. Kane will destory The Undertaker, and this time, Undertaker will Rest In Peace! JR and King talk about the line up for Unforgiven. The card follows: The just announced: Taka Michinoku vs. Marc Mero, Steve Blackman vs. Jeff Jarrett, Ken Shamrock vs. Faarooq vs. Cactus Jack vs. Sean Waltman, The New Ago Outlaws vs. L.O.D. 2000, Triple H vs. Owen Hart, Kane vs. Undertaker, and Steve Austin vs. Vader. DX then make their entrance Break[/u][/color] D-Generation X(w/Chyna) def. L.O.D. 2000 and Owen Hart(w/Sunny)[/u][/color] This was a perfectly fine main event here, which was used to showcase the feuds of DX here tonight, and hype two of the title matches at Unforgiven this Sunday. L.O.D. was teaming with someone else this time. And this was the first time Triple H teamed with The New Age Outlaws since they joined DX, so this was an interesting match. Hart started off the match calling out Triple H, but he got Road Dogg instead. The match went back and forth with many tags, expect Hart never got in the ring with Triple H. In the end, Chyna hopped on the apron, trying to distract Animal, so Sunny ran over and tackled her. Animal got distracted, and Gunn rolled him up for the three. Chyna pushed Sunny off and went up the stage with the rest of DX to celebrate the win. Stone Cold is seen walking backstage, the contract signing is next! Break[/u][/color] THE CONTRACT SIGNING[/u][/color] First, Vince McMahon and Vader made their way out to the ring. Vader sat in the chair and then the WWF Champion, Stone Cold Steve Austin makes his way to the ring. Vince gets on the mic and says that they are going to sign the contract, and not get physical. Vader then grabs the contract and signs it. He passes it to Austin, who signs it next. Vince takes the contract and starts to talk. Vince says that Austin brought this nightmare on him self. He ten says that Austin has no chance in hell this Sunday against this monster. Austin then grabs a the mic and says Vince and Vader can do all the talking they want, but this Sunday Austin will win, and that's the bottom line, because Stone Cold said so. Vince smirks and Vader hits Austin with a right hand. Austin fights back ,and the two get into a brawl. Austin goes for the Stunner, but is hit by a low blow from Vince. Vader then puts Austin through the table with a Vader Bomb! Vader stands over Austin's body, posing with the title as we go off the air.[/font]

Rock injured :/ damn. That sucks. Hope Shamrock takes the belt Sunday. Good opener with Taka and Mero, glad Taka retained, good ending with Taka slipping in before the 10. Angle hype video, wow cant wait for him to show up. Awesome sounding Hardcore match between Waltman and Jack. surprised to see Waltman win. Glad Kane got the win, excited to see him face Taker on Sunday. Like that JR and King went over the Unforgiven card. Good match between DX LOD and Owen. Liking the build for Vader/Austin. Like that Vince is trying to use Vader to destroy Ausin. Unforgiven looks very solid, cant wait to read.

TAKA vs. Mero, I imagine would have been a great opener. Glad to see Michinoku retain via CO. Rock being injured is bad, will be interesting to see how you work around it. Jarrett over Agulia is fine. I'm very interested in seeing what you'll do with Kurt Angle. Waltman over Jack, I wasn't expecting but I like it nonetheless. Ending the show with Austin going through a table and Vader standing tall is awesome.
You have a reader in me, sir.
