| RAW kicked off with a huge six-man tag team match, as Kane teamed up with the Road Dogg and X-Pac to take on "Badd Ass" Billy Gunn, D'Lo Brown and "Sexual Chocolate" Mark Henry. The match was declared a no-contest after the ring emptied and the six superstars battled through the crowd and back to the locker room. As Kane and Mark Henry fought through the people, the Corporate Ministry made its way out. Shane McMahon said his faction had three people on its hit list-and Vince McMahon was first! Backstage, Vince, Gerry Brisco and Pat Patterson scrambled to protect themselves. But when Vince looked in the closet for a weapon, the Undertaker, Triple H and Chyna were hiding on the inside! After being severely beaten by the three, the owner had to be carted off on a stretcher! | |
| In tag team action, the Blue Blazer and Jeff Jarrett, accompanied by Debra, took on Val Venis and the Godfather (accompanied by six hos)! The match ended when Blazer went flying into his own tag team partner, knocking Jarrett off the ring apron, and setting himself up for a Pimp Drop. Nonetheless, the Blazer gets a shot at the Intercontinental Title this Sunday when he takes on the Godfather at Over the Edge. Two phenomenal young athletes squared off next as Test took on Meat, accompanied by PMS-Terri Runnels, Jacqueline and new member Ryan Shamrock. As Test was setting up Meat for a pumphandle slam, Jacqueline delivered a missile dropkick off the top rope from behind, flooring Test and causing a disqualification. After the match, Meat and PMS stomped Test, and it looked like yet another woman had joined PMS as Tori came to the ring. However, Tori attacked Ryan and Jacqueline, and assisted Test! | |
| Next up, Stone Cold Steve Austin promised to whoop Triple H's ass later on RAW. He added that if Chyna interfered, she too would get a boot up her ass, as the Rattlesnake is "an equal opportunity ass kicker." At Over the Edge, Austin told the Undertaker, "you will know that Austin 3:16 says, 'I just whooped your ass.' And that's all I got to say about that." But the Corporate Ministry interrupted, and Shane McMahon told Austin that if the champion touched him this Sunday, he would disqualify Austin and award the Federation Title to the Undertaker! The Corporate Ministry began walking toward the ring to attack Austin, but the Union came out and stopped them! Undertaker walked back to the entranceway to help the Corporate Ministry, but he left Bearer alone in the ring with Austin! The champion dropped the Fatman with a stunner, and celebrated with a beer! |
