Report for 411 by Stu
Well, since I already watched Raw and now I have to go back to the beginning and watch the first half hour, I can tell you it kinda sucked. Hopefully the first half hour will be decent.
Mick Foley comes out to chants of his last name. Triple H/Jericho match will be a Last Man Standing match. Taker is now here with a mike. Kurt Angle is really pissing off the Stone Cold Taker. Tonight, Taker wants a match with he and Kurt Angle. If not, he's just going to find that boy in the back and kick his ass. Kane is out. Foley had better give his brother what he wants. Foley books Angle and HHH v. the Brothers. HHH on the Titantron split screen. HHH is begging Foley not to make him team up with "this Olympic twirp." Angle says H's wife doesn't think he is a twirp, and that is true. Just to be in on this one, Rocky comes out with a mike. He wants a shot at Benoit tonight. Here is the Crippler with Shane, Edge and Christian. Benoit loves to hear the Rock squeal when he puts him in the Crossface. Rocky will tap out because Benoit is the greatest technical wrestler in the WWF today and he will be the next WWF Champ. Shane and Foley talk for awhile and finally Edge and Christian get some mic work. They are feeling better, but not defending the titles better. 6-man tag match!!!! Edge and Christian w/ Benoit vs. APA and Rock tonight!!!!! Rock rumbles with Benoit! What a tag team war this will be!!
We come in with the show at Hardyz v. Dudleyz. We went to see X-Men for the second time. Unbelievable flick, you gotta see it! Anyway, I'll start transcription at the next match and then go back and do the beginning while watching the tape.
Hardyz v. Dudleyz
Big Move by Matt off the top ropes. A near fall by Matt on Devon. Jeff and Bub-uh Ray now are rumbling More rumbling. Missed most of the match due to the switch over, but the end comes with T&A coming in and causing interference. Off of a ladder in the ring, Jeff jumps on to T&A. Back in the ring, Lita and Trish are climbing up the ladder. Trish sends Lita backwards through a table.
Winner: No Contest
Commercial Break
Lita being taken out on a stretcher. She's gonna get that bitch.
Godfather w/ hoes v. Steve Blackman
Steven Richards is out to mess this up. He knows what the crowd wants. Godfather says he is costing him his chance at the Hardcore belt. Godfather chases Stevie to the back and out comes BULL BUCHANAN! He is dressed like Stevie. Bull pounds on Godfather and Steve takes the hoes to the back.
Winner: No Contest
Kurt Angle with Miggidy Michael Cole in the back. There is nothing wrong with giving hugs.
Commercial Break
Godfather is going to show Bull and Steve how hard pimpin' is.
Road Dogg and X-Pac v. Too Cool
Gay double elbow by Too Cool. Huge chants of X-Pac sucks by the crowd. Dancing punches by Dogg on Scotty and I'm asleep. GM knocked out of the ring. Scotty looking for the Worm on Pac. Dogg with the Pumphandle Slam of Shit and looking for the pin. Christopher out of nowhere hits the Hip Hop Drop, but X-Pac is in with the X-Factor and it's yet another DX victory.
Winners: DX
Christian, Edge, and Chris Benoit are in the back with Shane McMahon talking.
Rock and Acolytes walk.

Edge, Christian and Chris Benoit v. Acolytes and The Rock
Edge and Christian have a pose tonight and it's just Chris Benoit standing proud. Rock comes right after Benoit to start the match. Acolytes now in control. Nice power moves on Christian. Huge powerbomb by Bradshaw on Edge. Heels now take control briefly, but Faarooq takes over with a spinebuster. On the outside, Benoit clocks Rocky with a chair and then nails Faarooq. Edge covers up for "the duke." We miss ya Chris!

Back and forth action. Chyna misses the Backspring elbow. Chyna attempting the Texas Cloverleaf, but does it totally wrong. Saturn is out to the ring. He beats Eddie up the ramp. Sweet Jackhammer-like move by Saturn on the ramp. Terri greets him at the top. Chyna tends to Eddie and is counted out.
Winner by CO: Dean Malenko
HHH interview with Kelly backstage. He and Kurt Angle will never do anything together. He truly is THE GAME!
Tazz walking around backstage.
Commercial Break
The Mood is About to Change
Tazz cuts a promo with Russo-like accent. Volume is muted because Tazz is just that bad. Tazz is on a path of rage blah blah blah. When the time is right, I'll be…Mick Foley. No more interfering for Tazz, at Fully Loaded he has to wrestle…also time for Al Snow to do the job. Here is Al. Foley's going to give him the match, but he always chokes. Tazz locks in the Tazzmission and Snow passes out. Foley says Snow will show Tazz thug life at Fully Loaded.
Steph McMahon looking superfly tonight. She has her hair pulled back and she's wearing a tight black dress. She is a loyal and faithful wife.
Commercial Break
Highlights of Foley's trip to Asia. Foley says Sadness is watching an Al Snow match. Some Asian kids do impressions of Foley and other WWF superstars.
Test w/ Trish v. Rikishi
King made the connection to Rikishi's ass looking like a giant pigskin. Good work! Flying pigskin ass to the corner by Kishi. He gets the Stinkface on Test. Trish up on the apron to distract Kishi. He moves and Test takes Trish out. Kishi with the Samoan Drop and the pin. After the match, Albert and KC from the Howard Stern show out of nowhere pound on Rikishi. Too Cool makes the save.
Winner: Kishi
Commercial Break- We lost electricity here for a bit, so I apologize if I miss anything.
Kurt Angle and The Game v. Kane and Taker
Taker is definitely wearing a girdle to hold the fat in underneath his vest. Angle starts off against Kane and escapes when Taker is tagged in. H knocks around Taker for a bit and tags in Angle who wimps out again. Angle and HHH try a double suplex on Kane, but he instead turns the table on them. Huge Kane clothesline off the top rope on H. Taker finally gets his hands on Angle and they brawl outside the ring. Back in the ring, HHH has Kane set up for the Pedigree. Jericho is out, but being held back by refs. HHH is distracted and Kane back bodydrops him. Chokeslam. Pin.
Winners: Kane and Taker
Jericho attacks HHH after the match. Huge plancha to the outside on HHH and a bunch of refs.
