00:00:00You know, this match with Jericho and Benoit tonight, do you remember one thing?
00:00:22See what that says right there?
00:00:23That says team.
00:00:25Yeah.
00:00:25The word team.
00:00:28Remember that when we go out there tonight.
00:00:30I notice you still have both of your titles, and I don't have the Intercontinental title because of your mistake.
00:00:37Now, you still have your WWF championship because of me, because I don't make mistakes.
00:00:45My name is Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:00:47I don't think I deserve to be talked to like that.
00:00:49You don't deserve it?
00:00:50No.
00:00:51Then prove it.
00:00:52The greatest opportunity in the lives of Jericho and Benoit.
00:00:56My speculation is that Jericho and Benoit got one chance at it.
00:01:01Jericho taking Triple H over the top.
00:01:03And there's Austin with the right hand.
00:01:05Austin's got to be looking for the Stone Cold Stunner.
00:01:07Went for the loose-ass tracks.
00:01:09He goes counter.
00:01:10Right through Jay.
00:01:11He has it.
00:01:11Balls to Jericho.
00:01:13It's going to be over.
00:01:15Austin's going to tap out.
00:01:16And there's Triple H.
00:01:18Damn it.
00:01:19Triple H saved Austin again.
00:01:21Hey, wait a minute.
00:01:22What the hell is this all about?
00:01:23This is called the end of the match.
00:01:25Jericho going to help us stay here.
00:01:28Triple H is going to pedigree Jericho's face right through our table.
00:01:32Or maybe not.
00:01:33Jericho's got the walls of Jericho.
00:01:34What are you doing?
00:01:36Jericho's got the walls of Jericho on the game.
00:01:39Benoit.
00:01:39Benoit hits the headlight.
00:01:41Triple H is tapping on our table.
00:01:44Benoit's got the cover.
00:01:45It's not a false count anywhere.
00:01:47Benoit trying to tell the referee to get in the ring.
00:01:49Austin goes on the stutter.
00:01:52That's the end.
00:01:54Austin got the stutter.
00:01:56Oh, Jericho's on the referee.
00:01:59Austin take it down.
00:02:00The line is solved.
00:02:01He hit the line is solved.
00:02:02Triple H has got the damn sledgehammer.
00:02:05Not this again.
00:02:06No.
00:02:07Triple H hit Austin inadvertently.
00:02:09Jericho's got the cover.
00:02:11No.
00:02:12Jericho's got the cover.
00:02:12No.
00:02:14No.
00:02:15Benoit and Jericho have done it.
00:02:17Triple H has made a huge mistake.
00:02:19Benoit and Jericho and the biggest smash of our lives
00:02:23have beat Austin and Triple H for the tag team titles.
00:02:27There she is.
00:02:30There he is.

00:02:40針��
00:02:42hablabool
00:02:44Let's go.
00:03:14Let's go.
00:03:44Well, speaking of burning up, it looks like SmackDown is gonna get off to a rousing start with the owner of the World Wrestling Federation.
00:03:55Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the champion of the World Wrestling Federation, Mr. McMahon.
00:04:04Well, it hasn't been a great weekend for Mr. McMahon or Triple H, but somewhat of a smile on his face here tonight.
00:04:12Taz, he couldn't be pleased.
00:04:13Austin and Triple H lost the tag titles.
00:04:15Monday on Raw.
00:04:16Tonight, I promise you.
00:04:30No, wait a minute.
00:04:31I'm not gonna promise you.
00:04:33Tonight, I guarantee you an historic night of World Wrestling Federation action here in Anaheim, California.
00:04:43Historic.
00:04:44And you might say that history was made last Monday.
00:04:51More specifically, let's face it.
00:04:55It was a miracle that Benoit and Jericho became tag team champions.
00:05:00It was a miracle that Benoit and Jericho defeated Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H.
00:05:12And speaking of Triple H, due to the intensity of that tag team title matchup, unfortunately, Triple H suffered a severe leg injury.
00:05:29Triple H's quadricep was just about sliced in two.
00:05:38Triple H is gonna be out of action from some four to six months.
00:05:47How bloodthirsty are you people?
00:05:58Now, I'm not a vindictive man.
00:06:00However, I would suggest to you that the tag team championship reign of Benoit and Jericho is likely to be a little abbreviated.
00:06:12Because tonight, right here in that very ring, there will be a tag team championship matchup.
00:06:23But just not an ordinary tag team title match, no.
00:06:27This tag team title match will involve tables, ladders and chairs.
00:06:32What?
00:06:33Tonight?
00:06:34No way.
00:06:35For the first time ever on broadcast television, a TLC tag team championship match.
00:06:44Oh my God.
00:06:45I don't believe it.
00:06:46You see the Dudley boys.
00:06:47The Dudleys versus the Hardys versus Agent Christian versus Benoit and Jericho.
00:06:58For the first time in World Wrestling Federation history, there will be four teams and a TLC matchup.
00:07:06My only hope is that all of you enjoy this TLC tag team title match as much as I will, Stone Cold will, and Triple H will.
00:07:23And I leave you with this parting thought.
00:07:28I would suggest to you that Benoit and Jericho are fresh out of miracles.
00:07:36Thank you very much.
00:07:39There will be an explosion in Southern California tonight.
00:07:44Can you believe it?
00:07:45The ultimate punishment plan for Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho.
00:07:49A first ever four-way tag team table ladders and chairs match.
00:07:54I cannot believe what Mr. McMahon just said and what he just booked.
00:07:59I can't believe this on SmackDown.
00:08:01The tag team titles are on the line right here tonight in a tables, ladder, and chairs match.
00:08:09And you got it.
00:08:10You got to say, Cole, the advantage doesn't go to the new tag team champions.
00:08:15I'm gonna be watching.
00:08:16I'm gonna be watching.
00:08:18The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:08:21Making his weathering weighing in at 222 pounds is a member of X-Factor, X-Pac.
00:08:28Well, not a rousing reception for the leader of X-Factor.
00:08:32X-Pac set to go one-on-one here tonight with Latino Heat, Eddie Guerrero,
00:08:37on a night that we will see a first ever four-team table ladders and chairs match.
00:08:44Oh, it's X-Pac and Eddie Guerrero here, Taz,
00:08:46and it takes back to what happened this past 29 on Wall.
00:08:49It was X-Pac versus Matt Hardy with the European title on the line.
00:08:52Lita got involved, and then another unexpected visitor.
00:08:56No doubt, Cole.
00:08:57I mean, Eddie Guerrero showing his allegiance to the Hardy Boys.
00:09:00I mean, and Lita.
00:09:01I mean, look at that.
00:09:02He just, just, just, capitalized, just took out X-Pac,
00:09:05and then we see a twist of fate.
00:09:07Boom!
00:09:08Matt Hardy retaining the European title thanks to Eddie Guerrero and Latino Heat.
00:09:12And I've been skeptical about Eddie Guerrero, Taz,
00:09:14but I have to believe, I really think that Eddie Guerrero turned over a new Leaf.
00:09:19He's proved himself to me.
00:09:20I believe him.
00:09:21I mean, you gotta trust Latino Heat.
00:09:23Listen to people.
00:09:24They love him.
00:09:25And the way from El Paso, Texas,
00:09:27and the way in the corner that's left now,
00:09:29Eddie Guerrero.
00:09:31This should be an awesome match to kick off SmackDown and Taz.
00:09:34Both sides in this match have mutually agreed
00:09:37to make sure it remains one on one.
00:09:39There'll be no Justin Credible or Albert involved on the side of X-Pac.
00:09:43There will be no Hardy Boys and Lita involved on the side of Eddie Guerrero.
00:09:46That's the way it should be, Cole.
00:09:48Man on man, mano a mano.
00:09:50That's the way it should go down,
00:09:51and that's just for within a witness.
00:09:53A little revenge on the mind of X-Pac as we kick off SmackDown from a Rocky Arrowhead
00:09:59Pine in Anaheim, California.
00:10:01And I'll tell you, these fans showed up here tonight not knowing what to expect.
00:10:05And what a surprise launched on all of us from Mr. McMahon, the vindictive owner of the World
00:10:10Wrestling Federation.
00:10:12A table, ladders, and chairs match.
00:10:14Four teams with the tag team titles on the line.
00:10:18First time on broadcast television, Cole.
00:10:20And on SmackDown, where else?
00:10:22Taz and Phil.
00:10:23I mean, these people in Anaheim, they're getting a big treat.
00:10:26It's Anaheim.
00:10:28And he lands on his feet in the next box.
00:10:30He's a sidekick bunch of his career.
00:10:32He's in trouble here.
00:10:33First cover of the matchup.
00:10:35Two and a kick out.
00:10:36Why is it gonna be a sidekick?
00:10:37Why did you say Ernest Graham's a sidekick?
00:10:39Well, he really was.
00:10:40Why?
00:10:41He was the second wheel.
00:10:42He was members of groups like Generation X, Taz.
00:10:44He wasn't the front man.
00:10:45Now we're the group like X-Pac.
00:10:46X-Pac is indeed the front man.
00:10:48So just cause he ain't a front man, that makes him a sidekick.
00:10:51Oh, look at that.
00:10:52Nice chop up underneath the chin by Eddie Guerrero.
00:10:54X-Pac's always been impactful.
00:10:56Every time I've seen this man in the ring, he's been impactful.
00:10:58I'm not saying he hasn't been impactful, Taz.
00:11:00What I'm saying is he's finally the leader of a group now.
00:11:02He wants to make sure X-Factor, look out.
00:11:04Eddie off the DDT, into the cover.
00:11:06Here's one, two, and a kick out.
00:11:08What about the other news for Mr. McMahon tonight?
00:11:10That Triple H suffered a torn quadriceps muscle.
00:11:13Could be out four to six months.
00:11:15Part of the reason for this punishment in this TLC match tonight
00:11:18here on SmackDown.
00:11:19By the way, for all you idiots out there, and you, Cole,
00:11:22especially a quadricep muscle, is a thigh.
00:11:24That's a thigh muscle, and that is a heavy 3D injury.
00:11:27I mean, I hope Triple H comes back from that better than ever.
00:11:31Good luck to him.
00:11:32We can tell you Triple H operated on earlier today
00:11:34by Dr. Andrews Burgenham, Alabama.
00:11:36He's the best, man.
00:11:37The best.
00:11:38Only the best for the game.
00:11:39Eddie Guerrero tossed through the second rope.
00:11:40X-Pac in control.
00:11:41Off the second rope.
00:11:42Now it's Pac-Pac flying.
00:11:44Wow, Guerrero landed right on the back of his head cold.
00:11:47And Eddie Guerrero is in trouble as X-Pac.
00:11:50Damn right.
00:11:51I mean, Guerrero, all of X-Pac's weight right on it.
00:11:54You can see it.
00:11:55Look at the impact of this.
00:11:56Check this out.
00:11:57X-Pac not knowing as a high flyer per se, Taz.
00:12:00No, but he landed right on the back of his head.
00:12:02We're gonna see a lot of high flyer action here tonight.
00:12:05The Hardy Boys, the Dudley Boys, Edge and Christian.
00:12:08The three teams who have been a part of the first two table ladders and chairs match.
00:12:13Now, adding to the mix, the tag team champions, Benoit and Jericho.
00:12:17Well, Mr. McMahon, no warming up in a ball pin for the owner of this joint.
00:12:21Mr. McMahon, he throws a new tag team champions.
00:12:24Jericho and Benoit right in a TLC match with three teams that are masters of that type of match.
00:12:29Yeah, that TLC a career threatening, a dangerous match.
00:12:34Nice heel kick to the face by X-Pac.
00:12:37And Eddie Guerrero doesn't have much left in the tank.
00:12:39Here's the cover, hook on the leg, and Eddie kicks out before the count of three.
00:12:43But Latino Heat is feeling it, and X-Pac has kept up the pressure.
00:12:46No doubt, Cole Guerrero will not quit, though.
00:12:48He's got that Latina fire, baby, and he ain't gonna quit.
00:12:51He looks hurting, though.
00:12:53Second-generation superstar, Eddie Guerrero, as everybody knows.
00:12:57I mean, but he doesn't like he's hurting.
00:12:59He ain't losing much.
00:13:00Well, X-Pac going to the top rope.
00:13:02Here, once again, Latino Heat, Eddie Guerrero close center of the ring.
00:13:05X-Pac misses.
00:13:06Eddie Guerrero rolls out of the way, and now can Latino Heat capitalize and build some momentum?
00:13:12Well, here he comes.
00:13:13He's coming with it, and he needs to.
00:13:15He needs to get X-Pac real and rock.
00:13:16He's doing it.
00:13:17The fiery Latin temper of Eddie Guerrero as X-Pac ripped up off the ropes up over the top with Eddie Guerrero.
00:13:23And Eddie plays knee to the face on X-Pac, and now Eddie starts to feel the adrenaline,
00:13:28starts to feel the momentum building against X-Pac.
00:13:30Well, I think he's trying to kick out of that shot in the back of the head.
00:13:33It looks like he's coming to life here a little bit.
00:13:36He doesn't look as crisp as usual.
00:13:37I think that shot on the back of the head just took a little bit out of him, though.
00:13:40X-Pac ripped into the corner.
00:13:41Here comes Eddie Guerrero and nobody home, and Eddie bounces off the turnbuckle.
00:13:44And then a kick up underneath the chin.
00:13:47And I think X-Pac is about to saddle up the horses.
00:13:51Uh-uh, Guerrero could very well be out off his feet.
00:13:54He just took a hell of a shot with the chops.
00:13:56Bronco busted.
00:13:57Time, and he goes out of the way.
00:13:59Guerrero had him scouted perfectly, and now can Latino Heat take advantage?
00:14:04Guerrero looks shaky.
00:14:05He's a drug.
00:14:06Check out this spin kick.
00:14:08Bam!
00:14:09Right in the front.
00:14:10Wow.
00:14:11And Eddie Guerrero still trying to shake the cobwebs out of his head.
00:14:15Climbing to the top.
00:14:16Roping him.
00:14:17It's Seguri to the back of the head by X-Pac.
00:14:19X-Pac knows it.
00:14:20He's going for the back of his head.
00:14:22Eddie Guerrero down center of the ring face first.
00:14:26And X-Pac rolls into the cover.
00:14:29There's one.
00:14:30There's two.
00:14:31And he got him.
00:14:32It's over.
00:14:33X-Pac picks up the victory in a highly competitive matchup over Eddie Guerrero.
00:14:38Goes down cold.
00:14:39That crossbody earlier in the match by X-Pac.
00:14:42That's what beat Eddie Guerrero.
00:14:44Look, Guerrero is not himself.
00:14:45He took a hell of a shot.
00:14:47Outcast tonight.
00:14:48Four teams will risk injury.
00:14:50Risk shortening their careers.
00:14:52All four battling for the tag team titles.
00:14:55It's tables, ladders, chairs tonight.
00:14:57Tonight!
00:15:01I've been a professional for 15 years.
00:15:03Who says that?
00:15:04Nine years.
00:15:05It's taken a lifetime of training to do it.
00:15:06Do what I do.
00:15:07Still I've incurred countless injuries, stitches.
00:15:09Bumps and bruises.
00:15:10The danger is always there.
00:15:11The danger is always there.
00:15:12The fear is always there.
00:15:13The fear is always there.
00:15:14The fear is always there.
00:15:15Don't be a bonehead.
00:15:16Don't be a clown.
00:15:17Don't try this at home.
00:15:18Please don't try this at home.
00:15:19Don't try this at home.
00:15:20Please leave the danger to us.
00:15:22.
00:15:33sakuro
00:15:44I don't understand the bloody word that she's saying.
00:15:49But I think I get the way.
00:15:51Now, what's your name?
00:15:53Tajiri.
00:15:54Tajiri?
00:15:55Tajiri?
00:15:56Tajiri?
00:15:57Yes, yes.
00:15:58Now, look, I get the gist of it. You want to be a WWF superstar.
00:16:04Yes.
00:16:05But you can't just come to the WWF and expect to achieve superstar status.
00:16:10I mean, I've seen you compete and you're incredible.
00:16:12But let me give you some advice. What's your name again?
00:16:15Tajiri.
00:16:16What?
00:16:17Name? Tajiri.
00:16:19Please, Tajiri.
00:16:21Look, let me give you some advice.
00:16:23The best way that you need to get on in the WWF, you know, you have to pay some dues and some...
00:16:28You need to be friends with the commissioner.
00:16:30Yes.
00:16:31Oh, yes.
00:16:32That's enough.
00:16:33That's enough.
00:16:34Need to be friends.
00:16:35So, if you do things for me, I can do things for you, and you rise to superstardom would be a lot quicker, won't it?
00:16:41Yes.
00:16:42Yes.
00:16:43Look, please, first, you don't need to keep bowing all the time.
00:16:46No, no.
00:16:47Very stereotypical...
00:16:49You know, we don't have that kind of thing.
00:16:51You're racial stereotypes here in the WWF.
00:16:53We just won't allow it.
00:16:54So, please, you can start doing things for me.
00:16:58Go and fetch my tea and crumpets.
00:17:00Yes.
00:17:01Yes, tea and crumpets.
00:17:02I told you, no need for the bow.
00:17:04Yeah, tea and crumpets, please, go and get it.
00:17:06Thank you very much.
00:17:07Thank you very much.
00:17:08Thank you very much.
00:17:09Yes, very good.
00:17:10Yes, sir.
00:17:11There's a bloody bowing all the time again.
00:17:12Well, Regal looking confused, and speaking of confused, Kurt Angle was confused on Raw.
00:17:16The ultimate celebration interrupted.
00:17:19Tonight, I will recreate my Olympic winning victory ceremony.
00:17:26You are looking at a genuine, true life hero.
00:17:29I'm an Olympic champion.
00:17:30It's true.
00:17:31It's damn true.
00:17:34Here comes the money.
00:17:36Wait a minute.
00:17:37That's not Olympic music.
00:17:38That's Shane McMahon.
00:17:40Now, Kurt, you have your three I's.
00:17:47But, Kurt, I also have three letters.
00:17:49WCW.
00:17:50So what?
00:17:51The WCW starting soon?
00:17:53Nobody cares.
00:17:55What people care about is my award ceremony.
00:17:58Maybe you just don't understand what WCW means.
00:18:01The first letter, W, meaning world.
00:18:03C stands for championship, which obviously you do not have any currently at the moment.
00:18:09W stands for wrestling, which obviously you are very good at that.
00:18:14But W also stands for pussy.
00:18:17Oh, my God.
00:18:18Oh, my God.
00:18:19The ankle lock of Shane McMahon.
00:18:20Kurt Angle's got the ankle lock of the owner of WCW.
00:18:25On behalf of the McMahon family, I want to apologize for interrupting your Olympic ceremony.
00:18:34I mean, I've had Shane thrown the hell out of the building, but on behalf of the family, I have to apologize.
00:18:40Since you've got your gold back tonight, you've got an opportunity to win the Intercontinental Championship.
00:18:47Man, thank you very much.
00:18:49Against Kane.
00:18:50What?
00:18:51Or Shane McMahon.
00:18:52What the hell?
00:18:53Shane McMahon just nailed Kurt Angle.
00:18:55He was thrown out of the building.
00:18:57Shane McMahon, the owner of WCW, has struck again.
00:19:01And Kane has put the affirmation point on a successful title of this.
00:19:07Kurt Angle will never forget the name of Shane McMahon.
00:19:11Coach, hey.
00:19:12Have you seen Shane McMahon?
00:19:13Or is he scheduled to deal with him?
00:19:14No, not that I know of.
00:19:15No, if you're lying to me, you're essentially lying to America.
00:19:16And that's something you're going to have to live with the rest of your life.
00:19:17You understand?
00:19:18I understand.
00:19:19All right.
00:19:20You see Shane, you find me.
00:19:21You too.
00:19:22Okay.
00:19:24Guys, you've got to reach out to me.
00:19:25You've got to reach out to me.
00:19:38Guys, you've got to reconsider this thing with Molly.
00:19:42I really care about her.
00:19:43And I'm telling you, there's no way she'd cost you that match at Raw.
00:19:46Spike, listen to me, okay?
00:19:48I saw it with my own eyes.
00:19:49She took the bell and she gave it to her cousin.
00:19:52So therefore, she's going through a table.
00:19:55It may not be tonight.
00:19:56It may not even be tomorrow.
00:19:58But she's going to go through.
00:19:59So while you're sitting up here worried about your little friend,
00:20:03we've got more important things to worry about.
00:20:05Like a TLC match tonight for the WWF Tag Team Towers.
00:20:10Spike, when are you going to get it through your head
00:20:15that you cannot trust that backstabbing little bitch?
00:20:18Hey!
00:20:19I really care about her.
00:20:20Don't talk about her like that.
00:20:22Come on.
00:20:24Let's go find some tables.
00:20:26Molly.
00:20:27Fine.
00:20:28I'll go hang out with Molly.
00:20:58Hey, Holly.
00:21:02Have you seen Shane McMahon anywhere?
00:21:04No, Kurt.
00:21:05I haven't seen him.
00:21:06You haven't seen him?
00:21:08Just a reminder.
00:21:10I broke your cousin's arm once.
00:21:12So there's no telling what I'll do to you if you're lying to me.
00:21:15Hey, are you deaf?
00:21:16I said I haven't seen him.
00:21:18Now if you'll excuse me, I'm waiting for someone.
00:21:21That's right.
00:21:23You're waiting on Spike Dudley.
00:21:25That's a hoot.
00:21:26Well listen here, Missy.
00:21:28This isn't the prom.
00:21:30This is the World Wrestling Federation.
00:21:32And as a former WWF Champion, I say go make yourself useful and find Shane McMahon.
00:21:38Instead of wasting your time waiting on some ugly inbred wrestler wannabe like Spike Dudley.
00:21:43Hey, you can't talk about Spike like that.
00:21:45Oh yeah?
00:21:46What are you gonna do about it?
00:21:47Hey!
00:21:48Leave my girlfriend alone.
00:21:50Hey, I wasn't even talking to you.
00:21:52You stay out of this.
00:21:53Listen, if you see Shane-
00:21:54Hey!
00:21:55I said leave my girlfriend alone.
00:21:59What is this?
00:22:00Saved by the bell?
00:22:01Listen Spike, I'm in a bad enough mood as this is.
00:22:05So if you want to meet me in the ring, I'll be in the ring.
00:22:07I'll meet you later on tonight.
00:22:09Later?
00:22:10Yeah.
00:22:11Why later?
00:22:12Why don't we do it right now?
00:22:13Well, you're challenging me.
00:22:15You are challenging me.
00:22:16Kurt Angle.
00:22:17Yeah, I'm challenging you.
00:22:18I'll even lead the way.
00:22:19Molly, stay here.
00:22:20I got some business.
00:22:21He's kidding, right?
00:22:24This is gonna be great.
00:22:26Come on, Kurt!
00:22:30Can you believe this, Taz?
00:22:31Spike Dudley just challenged Kurt Angle, I guess, to defend the honor of-
00:22:34Did you hear Spike call Molly his girlfriend?
00:22:37I heard that, but Spike's out of his mind.
00:22:39What is he gonna do with Kurt Angle?
00:22:41Who's actually gonna get in the ring?
00:22:42Are they gonna do it now?
00:22:43Are they gonna take place now?
00:22:45Spike's a little, uh, nuts.
00:22:47I don't think Kurt Angle can believe that the run of the Dudley Litter, all 150 pounds of-
00:22:52of Spike Dudley is challenged into a match, but now-
00:22:55Angle's amused.
00:22:56Hey, it takes months to compare for a guy like Kurt Angle.
00:22:59Take it for me, I know that for a thousand.
00:23:02And, uh, Spike's a little confused with love.
00:23:05I mean, he's gonna need saved by the bell.
00:23:07He's gonna need to be saved by a bell.
00:23:09Well, you know, Spike's that little lad.
00:23:11Maybe it's gonna take months to prepare for somebody like Spike.
00:23:14Well, you are right, Taz.
00:23:15I mean, Kurt Angle's been in a bad mood, and he is a former champion.
00:23:19I mean, I respect Spike as a tough little dude, trust me.
00:23:22I'll tell you what.
00:23:24These people might be behind Spike, but-
00:23:26Spike's not in Kurt's league, in my view.
00:23:29Is Kurt Angle all over Kurt Angle?
00:23:31Is Spike just called Kurt a chicken?
00:23:34I don't know if he's chicken.
00:23:35I just-I just think Kurt's a little-
00:23:37I don't know if anything.
00:23:39Oh, what a woman will do to a man's courage, Taz.
00:23:42Work!
00:23:43Come on!
00:23:44As Kurt Angle slowly makes his way into the race, Spike Dudley is all bowed up.
00:23:49He's ready to go for the, uh-
00:23:52Well, they try to wreck him out here, so I guess it's official.
00:23:54I heard a ding-ding.
00:23:55Well, let's do it!
00:23:56On the matches.
00:23:57Here we go.
00:23:58Kurt Angle misses right-handed Spike Dudley.
00:24:00Slap Kurt Angle across the mouth.
00:24:03And cutting out hot pursuit is Spike Dudley, who's out here.
00:24:06Keep running Spike Dudley.
00:24:07In the honor of his girlfriend, Molly Holly.
00:24:10Oh, what are you reading, Spike?
00:24:12Oh!
00:24:13Drop kick to the back of Kurt Angle, and Spike Dudley is taking it to the Olympic hero.
00:24:17And Spike caught in mid-air by Kurt Angle.
00:24:20Oh!
00:24:21Oh!
00:24:22Oh!
00:24:23Oh!
00:24:24Kurt Angle better throw you than know you, baby!
00:24:26That'll suck the air right out of you.
00:24:27And Kurt Angle has been in a terrible mood this week.
00:24:31His Olympic reenactment ceremony disrupted by Shane McMahon on Raw this past Monday night.
00:24:37Then Shane, then of course Kurt Angle the Intercontinental title.
00:24:40I couldn't believe the Olympic slam lost that podium onto Shane McMahon.
00:24:45I was shocked to see that, and Shane McMahon disrupting Kurt Angle's huge celebration!
00:24:51Hey, Kurt Angle kicking the life out of Spike Dudley, and oh!
00:24:55Another surprise by Kurt Angle, and Spike Dudley was out here after Kurt Angle bad-mouthed Spike's girlfriend, Molly.
00:25:02Look at Kurt.
00:25:03Kurt's not even in his gear, fool.
00:25:05He just came out here.
00:25:06I mean, I guess Spike pumped Kurt out, and now Spike's getting his butt kicked.
00:25:12Now Spike Dudley's had a rough time of him as well, as Kurt Angle sets Spike Dudley up for another suplex.
00:25:18You know, Spike has taken a liking to Molly, but their respective families can't stand each other.
00:25:25The Hollies and Dudleys hate each other.
00:25:27And now Spike's calling Molly his girlfriend, and he's getting a heartbeat out of him by Kurt Angle.
00:25:31I don't think Spike Dudley's thinking about his girlfriend Molly Holly right now.
00:25:35He's thinking about surviving with the Olympic wrath of Kurt Angle.
00:25:38You know, the Dudley brothers, Devon and Bubba Ray tabs.
00:25:42Oh, look out. Look at Kurt Angle.
00:25:44And on a barricade.
00:25:45You know, Devon and Bubba Ray probably don't even realize this match is going on.
00:25:48They told Spike they were going looking for tables, preparing for the table ladders and chambers match later on.
00:25:53No doubt, but this is the Kurt Angle of a vindictive mean streak coming out right now.
00:25:57And the Dudleys, they know what they're worried about is that TLC match and they shoot me.
00:26:01Kurt Angle with that sick, sadistic smile on his face.
00:26:06He's an animal here tonight.
00:26:08He likes it.
00:26:09He likes beating the hell out of Spike Dudley.
00:26:10The ego of Kurt Angle, and he can back it up.
00:26:12The ego has landed named Kurt Angle.
00:26:15Spike Dudley out.
00:26:16He deals fairs another time.
00:26:18I think Kurt Angle's frustrated.
00:26:20Shane McMahon hasn't shown his face yet here tonight.
00:26:23He's taken out all that frustration on Spike Dudley.
00:26:26Spike picked the fight, Nicole.
00:26:28Spike picked the fight with a former WWF champion.
00:26:30He was defending the honor of his girlfriend.
00:26:32That's all Spike was doing.
00:26:33Kurt Angle had no reason to talk to Molly.
00:26:35He hit the way he did, and Spike's head bouncing off that steel hook.
00:26:39He defended his girlfriend, and now he's getting torn apart.
00:26:42And look at this.
00:26:43Oh, Olympic slam.
00:26:44What an angle slam.
00:26:47Just like the Shane on Wombadidana off the metal stand.
00:26:51This time to Spike off the steel steps.
00:26:53And Spike is out of it.
00:26:54This is pretty cool.
00:26:55This is fun.
00:26:56I'm loving this, man.
00:26:57I guess Kurt is just getting warmed up now.
00:27:00I mean, he's not even breaking a sweat.
00:27:02Kurt Angle is a big chipper in the World Wrestling Federation.
00:27:07Spike is the one for the winner.
00:27:09Spike's all hard, but what we might see is hard when Angle rips it out.
00:27:12Not again.
00:27:13Another angle slam to Spike Dudley.
00:27:15That's enough.
00:27:16Just pin him and get it over with.
00:27:18You prove your point, Kurt.
00:27:19He's toying wood and cold.
00:27:21The referee should just stop this match.
00:27:22There it is.
00:27:23And he found the ankle lock.
00:27:24Snap the ankle pop.
00:27:26Snap the ankle pop.
00:27:27Snap the ankle pop, baby.
00:27:29But Kurt Angle's not releasing the damn holes.
00:27:32That's enough.
00:27:33Wow.
00:27:34Look at this.
00:27:35And here comes Molly.
00:27:36Molly Holly.
00:27:37Pleading with Kurt Angle.
00:27:39Molly's just as nux as Spike, Cole.
00:27:42Kurt is sick.
00:27:45And look at this.
00:27:46Crash and Hardcore coming to their cousin Molly's rescue.
00:27:50Rescue.
00:27:51They saved a life.
00:27:56Crash and Hardcore.
00:27:57That one for Molly associated with the Dudleys.
00:28:00Wait, Cole.
00:28:01Kurt's gonna do it again.
00:28:02Oh, man.
00:28:03And Kurt Angle telling Molly Holly to watch it.
00:28:06As he locks in the ankle lock again.
00:28:08Angle's sick.
00:28:09Look at Angle's eyes, Cole.
00:28:11Look at him.
00:28:12He's grinning.
00:28:13Look at the viciousness of Kurt Angle.
00:28:15And Molly Holly screaming with terror.
00:28:18As he watches her boyfriend Spike.
00:28:20Perhaps have his ankle snapped by Kurt Angle.
00:28:24Angle's snapped, Cole.
00:28:26Angle's the man.
00:28:27He proved his point.
00:28:29And Spike became just another victim.
00:28:32Angle's the man.
00:28:33Angle.
00:28:34Angle.
00:28:35Angle.
00:28:36Angle.
00:28:37Angle.
00:28:38Excuse me, Kurt.
00:28:39We just saw what you did to Spike in front of Molly.
00:28:43Are you proud of yourself?
00:28:45Am I proud?
00:28:47Let me tell you something, Lillian.
00:28:50I'm proud to be an American.
00:28:52I'm proud to be an Olympic champion.
00:28:55And I'm damn proud of what I did to Spike Dudley.
00:28:58And after what Shane McMahon dared to do to me last Monday night on Raw.
00:29:02Ruining my Olympic victory ceremony.
00:29:06And costing me the Intercontinental title against Kane.
00:29:10Well, Vince McMahon gave me the green light.
00:29:14And I'm going to be damn proud to snap Shane's ankle in two.
00:29:20Now get out of here.
00:29:21Get out of here.
00:29:26I'll tell you, Taz, did you see the look in the eyes of Kurt Angle?
00:29:29It's all about Shane McMahon and the embarrassment that Shane brought to Kurt Angle this past Monday night.
00:29:35I'm going to be next Monday night!
00:29:40High Noise.
00:29:41Whole the contest is scheduled for football.
00:29:44Making it whether it's been accompanied by Terry and Perry Satter.
00:29:47From Tampa, Florida.
00:29:48Weighing in at 205 pounds, Dean Malenko!
00:29:52So Dean Malenko set to go one on one...
00:29:54And this past Monday night on Raw, Terry...
00:29:56Although she's sort of, uh, well, pushed the APA into an ambush by the Radicals.
00:30:01Ended up in a tag team match-up, Taz.
00:30:04you one thing, Perry Satter was knocked out cold and required medical treatment. Well, Perry was
00:30:10loopy. Home from the power, he weighed in at 232 pounds. Raven! Perry was, uh, extremely loopy. I've seen him in the back on, I'd roar and, uh, he didn't know where the hell he was. Not at all. Wearing a hat like that, I don't think he ever knows where he is. I dig Perry Satter's hats. I like those
00:30:30monkey hats. I need an orange one like that. So it's Dean Malenko and Raven one-on-one tonight on SmackDown as we prepare, folks, for perhaps the biggest match in the history of SmackDown. The first time on broadcast television, a four-team table, ladders, and chairs match with the tag team titles on the line. And Taz, three of the teams in this, Edge and Christian, the Hardy Boys, and Dudley Boys, have already been in two table ladders and chairs matches. One of the teams, the tag team champions, have never, ever been in a
00:31:00TLC match. As usual, the master manipulator, Mr. McMahon, getting the ultimate receipt on new tag team champions. Yeah, Mr. McMahon upset that his son-in-law, Triple H, is now out of action, four to six months, with a forward quadriceps muscle, and also the fact that Austin and Triple H lost the tag team titles to Benoit, Jericho, and Raw Monday night as Raven takes it to Malenko, and a great counter by Dean Malenko. Raven's been looking real
00:31:22sharp the past few weeks. I mean, you know, Raven's got it all, man. I mean, besides a
00:31:26really cool wardrobe, the people get behind Raven big time. And you know, he's an extremely smart dude, Cole. He's got like a 6,052 IQ, you know that? What? Yeah, he's got a really high IQ. Is that, that's a number, right? Well, Raven was looking for that Raven effect at DDT, and Dean Malenko counted, and I tell you, Dean Malenko, a master technician inside the ring, and Raven's gonna have his hands for this one. No doubt, I, I think Raven is gonna have his hands for this one.
00:31:56I think Raven's the favorite in this matchup. Well, the favorite's in trouble, as Malenko works on that left leg of Raven. Raven extremely resilient, trying to make it to the ropes that he does, and it forces referee Jack Doan to break the hole. Yeah, but Malenko will stay right on Raven's knee, and Raven knows it. Raven knows right now that Malenko's picked his spot, and the spot right there, but back of that left knee to home knee, actually.
00:32:26Stone Cold, still the WWF champion, is here tonight in Anaheim for SmackDown. Stone Cold through that war with The Undertaker at Judgment Day this past Sunday. Malenko in control of Raven. I can't believe in a matter of moments, Taz, that this ring is gonna be filled with tables, ladders, and chairs. The tag team title's gonna be hung high above the ring. First time on broadcast TV. Oh, look out, Malenko's in trouble, big clothesline by Raven. Dr. Dean Malenko down, and Raven in control, and Perry Saturn over here.
00:32:56Here next to us just picked up a steel chair. James, I missed the rest of the tooth, that big knee, and there goes Saturn. Perry just tossed that chair into the ring, as Malenko hammers away with the right hands to Raven. Perry don't know what, Perry's like this goofy-looking, all silly, walking around. No! Bulldog. Bulldog by Raven, now Terry up on the apron. Everybody's jumping on the apron. Cole, you jump on the apron, too. Everybody's jumping. Well, thank you. Raven's setting him up, and Perry Saturn from behind with a neckbreaker. Raven went for The Raven Effect. Here's the
00:33:26bridge by Malenko. The cover. Malenko steals one, thanks to Perry Saturn. Raven grabbed the back of his head there. Here's your honor. Here's your honor. By Saturn. Saturn putting the boots now to Raven here. Perry Saturn attacking Raven, and Saturn now chasing the referee, and Perry Saturn, he's out there. Oh, yeah. I know Perry very well. He's nutty than ever now. He's still tough as nails, as we know. I mean, the nail-down. Raven is fighting back. Raven fighting back two-on-one.
00:33:55Saturn a shot to the kidney, and now Malenko with a chair. Oh! A kick to the chair. Malenko and Raven. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. A Raven effect onto the steel chair. Wow. Perry Saturn planted by Raven.
00:34:12I don't know how Raven, obviously, the radicals backfire there with that super kick by Saturn, but Raven capitalized on it. Walking out. He's walking out instead of getting stretching out.
00:34:22Well, Malenko picked up the victory, thanks to Perry Saturn, but Perry Saturn paid for it. Knocked out. He's been knocked loopy.
00:34:30Well, we gotta take another look, Taz. Raven going for the Raven effect on Dean Malenko, but check out Perry Saturn.
00:34:36Boom! Right there. I mean, if Raven would've hit that Raven effect, it would've been over.
00:34:42But he didn't. Yeah, he didn't, but he did hit the Raven effect the second time.
00:34:46It was Perry Saturn into that steel chair, and for the second time this week, Perry Saturn has been knocked for a loop.
00:34:55And EMT's now working on Perry Saturn, and I think Saturn's out cold. Again.
00:35:01What the hell are you doing in here?
00:35:12Well, I didn't hear me. I said, hey, Parker. Parker's tonight, so I thought I'd come in here, we'd get ready together, you know, discuss the match, stuff like that.
00:35:19Yeah, well, this is the guy's dressing room.
00:35:22Well, that's why I had the screen put up. Don't worry, it'll be fine. You do your stick thing, and I'll go get ready.
00:35:29Well, there are the Hardy boys. We assume they're talking strategy for the big table, ladders, and chairs.
00:35:54Tag team matchup here tonight on SmackDown.
00:35:58And there's the WWF champion, Stone Cold.
00:36:02The Brown of States puppet.
00:36:04Is he on his way out here?
00:36:05And now, the Wack of the Night, presented by Lorillard Tobacco Company's Youth Smoking Prevention Program.
00:36:12Tobacco is wacko if you're a teen.
00:36:15You mess with my family, and I'm gonna hurt you.
00:36:18If you ever decide to bring my family into this again, I'm gonna show you what it's like to step on somebody's family.
00:36:25You know why I didn't whip his a**?
00:36:27Because you were right there.
00:36:29Tobacco is wacko if you're a teen.
00:36:30Are you ready yet?
00:36:37Well, I am. I just...
00:36:39You know, if you could just come and help me with this backpack, I can't reach it.
00:36:43Just... come on, Steve, please.
00:36:45I'm just trying to get ready.
00:36:46I can't reach it.
00:36:50Oh!
00:36:50Oh!
00:36:51Oh!
00:36:52Wow!
00:36:54That's gigantic!
00:36:55Yeah, well, you should see when I beat people all over the head with it.
00:37:04Can I... can I hold it?
00:37:07I don't see why not.
00:37:08It's so hard.
00:37:10It's like, oh, it's next week.
00:37:12Mm-hmm.
00:37:12It's like, oh, it's so hard.
00:37:29Ladies and gentlemen, let's go.
00:37:31The world's fight against the champion, Stone Cold, Steve Usman.
00:37:40Stone Cold retained the WWF title.
00:37:44There is no holds board match for The Undertaker.
00:37:48That judgment there, so fantastic.
00:37:51Did you feel it cold?
00:37:52Oh, I felt it.
00:37:53Did you feel the mood just changed?
00:37:55Baby, the bionic redneck is in and a hand right now.
00:38:00One snack day.
00:38:02He understands Stone Cold has been in a miserable mood the past three days.
00:38:07Ever since losing the tag team titles to Benoit Jericho on Raw this past Monday night.
00:38:14He's lucky to survive judgment day, boy.
00:38:16I mean, they're going to fit in the park.
00:38:19And it's not wrong with being miserable.
00:38:20I live most of my life being miserable.
00:38:22Not as miserable as that man right there.
00:38:24Stone Cold, Steve Usman, wouldn't have survived judgment day if it wasn't for Triple H.
00:38:29Triple H saved the World Wrestling Federation Championship for Stone Cold, Steve Usman.
00:38:36You're welcome again, Colton Wright.
00:38:38And here is a man who has gone through a metamorphosis over the past few months.
00:38:43A man who has changed drastically.
00:38:48Selling his goal for the World Wrestling Federation title.
00:38:51Joining this longtime enemy, Mr. McMahon, and turning his back on his friends.
00:38:56I came out here to talk about a few problems I got going on in my life.
00:39:10I have your attention just for one second.
00:39:13I can start.
00:39:14First off, I need you to shut your a** off.
00:39:24I got a sore throat and I can't talk very loud.
00:39:29No sympathy for this crowd.
00:39:32Here's the thing.
00:39:33I got a sore throat.
00:39:35I'm not asking you to shut your a** off.
00:39:37I'm telling you to shut your a** off.
00:39:39Last Monday night.
00:39:48Last Monday night in a freak accident.
00:39:51A fluke.
00:39:52Don't you dare get too close to me.
00:39:58Stone Cold Steve Austin was laying flat on his back.
00:40:02Looking up at the lights.
00:40:03While a referee counted one, two, three.
00:40:12That meant the end of an era.
00:40:15Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H ain't the world tag team champions no more.
00:40:20One of the biggest problems I got with that is that Stone Cold Steve Austin got beat by Chris Jericho.
00:40:39Hey, my name is Stone Cold Steve Austin and I don't deserve to be beaten by Chris Jericho.
00:40:47That man doesn't belong in the same arena with me, much less the same building.
00:40:59The reason that I'm no longer part of the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champions is because of one man.
00:41:07Full respect for the champion.
00:41:15If you continue to come here, I will turn around and walk right out of here.
00:41:20Well, that's it.
00:41:38Guess he's leaving.
00:41:45No, no, no.
00:41:46I think I changed my mind.
00:41:47Like I was saying, the reason that I'm no longer the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Champions is because of Triple H.
00:42:03The man that calls himself the game.
00:42:07The man that says he is that damn good.
00:42:10The man that looked me right in my eyes and said, Stone Cold, I do not make mistakes.
00:42:20The reason we lost is because Triple H is extremely selfish.
00:42:26I was right there in the middle of the ring.
00:42:29Chris Jericho had me tangled up in a lion tamer.
00:42:33Right when I was about to counter move the lion tamer and hit him with a stunner, Triple H comes in and interferes.
00:42:49That was one act of selfishness.
00:42:54Then, right after Jericho hit me with a lion salt, I was about to kick out.
00:43:01And the man that makes no mistakes comes in here and BAM!
00:43:07Hit Stone Cold Steve Austin right in the belly with a sledgehammer.
00:43:11Hey, I'll admit, I am one tough son of a buck.
00:43:24But even, and I'm tougher than anybody in this damn building.
00:43:30Even Stone Cold Steve Austin couldn't survive the sledgehammer.
00:43:34So, Triple H, with your little leg injury, I think you deserve exactly what you had coming.
00:43:42If your little tendon sheared off, your little ligament popped off your leg, I really don't give a rat s*** about you.
00:43:52I care about me because my name is Stone Cold Steve Austin, and I am the World Wrestling Federation champion.
00:43:59Okay, okay, okay, okay.
00:44:04The other problem I got, the other problem I got is with security.
00:44:09The Undertaker comes in my dressing room, and I'd already whipped his s*** at Judgment Day.
00:44:15I done did exactly what I said I was going to do.
00:44:19BAM! Defeated him.
00:44:20One, two, three.
00:44:21And he barges in my dressing room, and he looks me in the eye and says,
00:44:26It ain't over till I say it's over.
00:44:32Yeah, right, Austin claimed he was going to kick The Undertaker's body on Raw.
00:44:36It's over because Stone Cold Steve Austin says it's over.
00:44:41But Austin backed down from The Undertaker, and then he put the blame on his wife, Debra.
00:44:45Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:44:46That's right.
00:44:47You do not threaten Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:44:50You do not threaten Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:44:53That's something you just don't do.
00:44:54Now, now that I feel like I've clenched myself and I got that out of my system,
00:45:02we can go on talking about Stone Cold Steve Austin, your World Wrestling Federation champion.
00:45:12This belt is mine.
00:45:15This belt is mine.
00:45:17I am a fighting champion.
00:45:18I am a man's man.
00:45:22I am a champion of champions.
00:45:25And I will put this belt on the line.
00:45:28Listen to me.
00:45:30Listen to me because this is extremely important.
00:45:34I will put this belt on the line to anybody.
00:45:39Anybody.
00:45:40Back there in the dressing room.
00:45:42But I just won't do it tonight in this piece of crap town.
00:45:47He's got a sore throat, Cole, so, you know.
00:45:50No, no, no.
00:45:50I won't do it in this piece of crap town because you don't deserve to see Stone Cold Steve Austin in action.
00:45:58And that's all I got to say about that.
00:46:00You know, Taz, the bottom line with Stone Cold is he doesn't give a damn about anybody but himself.
00:46:11He doesn't care about anything but that WWF title.
00:46:14He just threw his so-called partner, Triple H, under the bus, blaming Triple H for caught into the tag team title.
00:46:21He did, Cole.
00:46:23Triple H.
00:46:24They screw up.
00:46:25That's it.
00:46:26It's that simple.
00:46:26And Austin ain't got to care about anybody because he is the WWF champion and that's why he's the champion.
00:46:32Don't call Steve Austin as intense.
00:46:35Don't call Steve Austin as unstable.
00:46:39Taz talking about unstable.
00:46:41Tonight, perhaps the biggest match in the history of SmackDown.
00:46:45This is going to be unreal.
00:46:46It's coming up in a few minutes.
00:46:48Cole, TLC.
00:46:48Tag team titles are on the line.
00:46:51Tables, ladders, chairs tonight.
00:46:53Taz, congratulations to Nick Foley.
00:46:59Yet another number one bestseller on the New York Times bestseller list.
00:47:03Foley is good.
00:47:04You know what?
00:47:05I'm throwing open a hook as a little thug.
00:47:07I didn't read many books, but this book's hard to put down.
00:47:10And there's some little stuff there about Taz, too.
00:47:13Good stuff.
00:47:13I'm sorry.
00:47:19I'm sorry.
00:47:20Hello.
00:47:20I'm having a drink.
00:47:21How are you?
00:47:22I'm tired.
00:47:23Take it.
00:47:23It's only me.
00:47:24We don't have enough party, you know?
00:47:25In Japan, it's like tea and tea.
00:47:27Oh, yes.
00:47:27Very good.
00:47:28Can I add this?
00:47:28It's good.
00:47:29I hope this is all great.
00:47:31Toc, toc, toc, toc.
00:47:32Take it.
00:47:32Take it.
00:47:33Take it.
00:47:34Take it.
00:47:34Take it.
00:47:35Let's not get too ahead of ourselves.
00:47:37What you need is patience, young man.
00:47:39Yes, all right.
00:47:40It's a virtue.
00:47:41Commissioner, tonight,
00:47:43I want a rematch for my WWF Hardcore title
00:47:46against the Big Show.
00:47:47No, I'm sorry.
00:47:49No, the Hardcore Championship isn't being defended tonight.
00:47:52I'm sorry about that.
00:47:53We can't do anything for you.
00:47:54Okay.
00:47:54WWF title.
00:47:56Give me Stone Cold Steve Austin.
00:47:58You've got cloth ears, lad.
00:47:59Did you not hear what Stone Cold just said?
00:48:02I mean, he said he will fight anybody, anytime, anywhere,
00:48:05but just not tonight here in Anaheim.
00:48:09Give me Kane, the Intercontinental.
00:48:13Champion.
00:48:14Kane?
00:48:14Are you mad man?
00:48:15Nobody wants to wrestle Kane.
00:48:17Nobody wants to fight the big red machine.
00:48:19He's a monster.
00:48:20Well, I do.
00:48:22Okay, okay.
00:48:23You've got an Intercontinental Championship match against Kane.
00:48:27You're damn right.
00:48:28Peculiar fellow, the size of the head on him.
00:48:34Looks like an orange on a toothpick.
00:48:36Turn it up.
00:48:38Rhino and Kane for the Intercontinental title tonight.
00:48:42What is wrong with Rhino asking for a match against Kane?
00:48:45Turn it up.
00:48:48He's an animal, Kane.
00:48:51That's why Rhino's an animal.
00:48:52Well, he's an animal.
00:48:53He's an animal.
00:48:54He's a monster.
00:48:56Crew is a six-person tag team match.
00:48:59They go for a call.
00:49:00Making their way to the ring.
00:49:02Grace Stratus.
00:49:03Grandmaster Six Egg.
00:49:04And the lethal weapon, Steve Whitman.
00:49:08I'll tell you what, Ted.
00:49:10Six-person tag team matchup.
00:49:12Gonna be a good one here on SmackDown.
00:49:14It's gonna be an interesting Sunday night at Heath,
00:49:18live from WWF New York at MTV, 7 o'clock 6 Central.
00:49:22Because Grandmaster and Blackman are our special guests.
00:49:25And whose house is that called?
00:49:26Your house.
00:49:27Right, it's not Paulie's house.
00:49:28Like JR said on Raw, he's from Scar Sale.
00:49:30That's like Connecticut.
00:49:32A bus on Heath Sunday, the first update on Triple H
00:49:35following his surgery.
00:49:39And making their way to the ring.
00:49:41Ivory, the good father, and Paul Buchanan.
00:49:44Right.
00:49:45To Sensor.
00:49:46All right.
00:49:47The Sensor's still alive and kicking.
00:49:48And despite the fact they don't have a leader.
00:49:50They basically booted Steven Richards out.
00:49:53Steven Richards.
00:49:55She's still working here.
00:49:57You saw the WWE in New York on Raw Monday night.
00:49:59Paul Heyman and JR basically.
00:50:01All right.
00:50:02They told to shut up.
00:50:03That was pretty funny.
00:50:04The big blow off.
00:50:05Paul's gonna blow people off.
00:50:07So it's the good father, Paul Buchanan, and Ivory.
00:50:10Set to take on Blackman, Grandmaster Sexay, and Trish
00:50:13in a six-person tag team matchup.
00:50:15And Trish looks muddy fine here tonight.
00:50:18I have one word to say about that, Cole.
00:50:21Yes.
00:50:22And the big pull goes to work on Steve Blackman.
00:50:25What about the move that Stone Cold Steve Austin was in?
00:50:28Out here a little bit earlier on.
00:50:29Oh, Austin was extra miserable.
00:50:31He was extra intense tonight.
00:50:33I mean, and the man had a sore throat.
00:50:35And, but he, you know, he said he'd open challenge, but just not tonight.
00:50:38Oh!
00:50:39Oh!
00:50:40Oof!
00:50:41Take care of my bullies.
00:50:42Austin's deranged.
00:50:43He's sick.
00:50:44Plain and simple.
00:50:45Austin's twisted.
00:50:46There ain't no doubt.
00:50:47And I'll tell you what.
00:50:48I want to know who's gonna try and take that title off of Austin's waist.
00:50:52Because everything there looks such a whole thing, Charlie.
00:50:54And here comes Trish into the ring to take on Ivory.
00:50:57And Trish comes out with the right hand, and grab comes alive as Ivory's not good at a good
00:51:02by Trish Stratus.
00:51:03You want to talk about Trish?
00:51:04You want to talk about Trish?
00:51:05You want to talk about a lot of twisted bodies out here later?
00:51:07Yes.
00:51:08Yes, yes, yes.
00:51:09Tables, ladders, and chairs for the tag team title.
00:51:12It's coming up, Cole, just a little bit.
00:51:14A few minutes.
00:51:15Tables, ladders, and chairs, man.
00:51:17Unreal.
00:51:18Tag titles on the line.
00:51:20And Ivory with shots and the kickers of Trish Stratus and the viciousness of Ivory,
00:51:24former women's champion, and the step there to Trish Stratus.
00:51:27But I have to ask you, Taz, how in the world are Y2J and Chris Benoit going to be able
00:51:33to survive this table, ladders, and chairs match tonight?
00:51:36All three teams that have mastered the TLC-style matchup.
00:51:40I mean, the new tag team champions going on Jericho.
00:51:43I mean, when are we going to match with the tag team champions upon the underdogs?
00:51:47Well, the ultimate punishment from Mr. McMahon as Trish makes the tag to Grandmaster Sexy.
00:51:52Cuts underneath the right-handed Goodfather.
00:51:54And here we go.
00:51:55Grandmaster's rolling.
00:51:56Grandmaster's rolling.
00:51:57He's cooking it up.
00:51:58Oh!
00:51:59Oh!
00:52:00Oh, yeah!
00:52:01Oh, yeah!
00:52:02Grandmaster's second rope.
00:52:03Goodfather in trouble.
00:52:04Grandmaster up over the top of the Big Goodfather.
00:52:06It's a great beat for the man.
00:52:07Wow!
00:52:08Grandmaster cover.
00:52:09There we go.
00:52:10Two kick-out by the Goodfather.
00:52:11Coming up next, Taz.
00:52:12The Intercontinental title is on the line.
00:52:13Understand that matchup's coming up next.
00:52:14Kane, the Big Red Machine, against Rhino.
00:52:15Well, Rhino, as we've seen here, the Showtime World Wrestling Federation has been extremely impactful.
00:52:29And I'll tell you what!
00:52:30He might take that title and become the title up for Kane tonight.
00:52:34That might happen.
00:52:35That's a good shot.
00:52:36Kane can do it.
00:52:37It would be a huge upset.
00:52:38Kane keeping the title after defeating Triple H in a cheat match.
00:52:42At Judgment Day Sunday, and the Big Bull with the shots in the midsection of Grandmaster Sexy.
00:52:47We're working on the mighty fine abs of Grandmaster Sexy.
00:52:51We're working on the mighty fine abs of Grandmaster Sexy.
00:52:52We're going to go.
00:52:53Grandmaster Sexy.
00:52:54You know, you hit it.
00:52:56Very good point, you feel it, Taz.
00:52:57Did I really?
00:52:58Jericho and Ben Raw are the underdogs coming into this Table Ladders and Chairs match tonight.
00:53:04The champions are the underdogs.
00:53:06Perhaps the odds-on favorite, Edge and Christian.
00:53:09They've worked both previous Table Ladders and Chairs matches.
00:53:12Styles being the former seven-time WFK team champions.
00:53:16I mean, you know, the double-e's, you know, E&C, and the hotties, all of KCWFK can go.
00:53:23And tonight, one of those teams might take it.
00:53:25Oh!
00:53:26Oh, here's the weapon.
00:53:27Steve Blackman with a dropkick, the double knockdown.
00:53:30And this Blackman is so quick.
00:53:32Oh, he's quick.
00:53:33He's powerful.
00:53:34Experience.
00:53:35And he's got it all.
00:53:36Spinebuster, here's the bridge.
00:53:37And Ivory brings up the three-count with a shot to the spot.
00:53:40And a spear by Trish.
00:53:42There we go!
00:53:44Get him, Trish!
00:53:46And Ivory reverses Rolls.
00:53:48Meanwhile, boom!
00:53:49Bicycle kick.
00:53:50Back of the head to Blackman.
00:53:52Blackman and Bull are the legal man.
00:53:54But the referee distracted with Trish and Ivory.
00:53:56And look at Sexy!
00:53:57He's gonna hit the hip hop jump!
00:53:59He got it!
00:54:00Grandmaster Raleigh Blackman on the big ball.
00:54:04Here's the cover.
00:54:05You got it!
00:54:06Trish Blackman, Sexy!
00:54:07Win!
00:54:08Here are your winners, Trish Stratus, Grandmaster Sexy, and the lethal weapon, Steve Blinkman!
00:54:18Pretty good stuff right there!
00:54:20Blackman, Sexy!
00:54:22And, uh, Trish Stratus, fashion!
00:54:28Uh-oh!
00:54:29Grandmaster's got their glasses out!
00:54:32Boy, look at this, Cole!
00:54:33You don't think...
00:54:36I love to see Trish dance!
00:54:38Yes!
00:54:42And she's feeling it!
00:54:43She's seeing the light through the glasses!
00:54:45Yeah, Cole, calm down!
00:54:46I know how you can!
00:54:47Sit down, relax!
00:54:48We're gonna look excited out here on TV!
00:54:52Alright!
00:54:53Let's go!
00:54:54Stop clapping!
00:54:55Let the fans do it!
00:54:56Come on!
00:54:57This must be a play-by-play type of guy!
00:54:59Man, having fun!
00:55:00Everybody's having fun on SmackDown!
00:55:02Great!

00:55:05Look at Trish!
00:55:06Get the camera on Trish!
00:55:08Word!
00:55:11It's a super move!
00:55:13Like, I didn't know that!
00:55:14Come on!
00:55:16Steve Blackman can move!
00:55:18He's got two moves!
00:55:20Steve Blackman, oh, he's got the...
00:55:22The fine food picture out there!
00:55:25Trish Blackman and Grandmaster having fun tonight on SmackDown!
00:55:30Hey, I think I've seen Blackman on the spotlight!

00:55:42It's all for a fight!

00:56:33Jeff hanging from the top.
00:56:35Oh, my God!
00:56:36And it's for the 20-foot ladder with a spear on Jeff Hardy!
00:56:40Jeff Hardy may be broken smack dab in half!
00:56:43What price are they willing to pay to be the tag team champion?
00:56:48Fans on the edge of their state to meet Pond and Anaheim, about to witness for the first
00:56:54time on broadcast television, a four-way table ladders and chairs match with the tag team
00:57:01titles on the line here tonight!
00:57:05That's my boy!
00:57:06You win from Cypress Hill!
00:57:08Tag's friend of mine coming out with a new tag team real soon!
00:57:12And just visit the tag, a little bit of it, it's back when you hear it!
00:57:18Edge and Christians, you guys tonight are in the first time ever four-team TLC match.
00:57:25I gotta ask, are you guys nervous at all?
00:57:28Nervous?
00:57:29Listen, you riquette.
00:57:31We've been in enough of these matches to know what the consequences are.
00:57:35And believe me, it's worth it.
00:57:37You know, just let me put it to you like this, Lillian.
00:57:40It seems that everybody has a habit.
00:57:43I mean, you have a habit of asking stupid questions.
00:57:46It works for you.
00:57:47The people here in Southern California have a habit of being completely brain-dead imbeciles.
00:57:53We, on the other hand, have a habit of our own.
00:57:56A habit of winning huge.
00:57:59I mean, colossal matches when they count the most.
00:58:04Whether it's TLC1, TLC2, or even the triple threat ladder match at WrestleMania 2000 that took place right here in this stank arena.
00:58:16You know, Lillian, Mr. McMahon came to us for a reason.
00:58:20Now, I'll give the Devils their due.
00:58:22The Dudleys and the Hardys are two amazing teams.
00:58:25And tonight, in the TLC match, they'll get their licks in.
00:58:28But if you want the tag team titles from around the wastes of Benoit and Jericho,
00:58:33then Edge and Christian are the men to come to.
00:58:36As a matter of fact, Lillian, I have a little mathematical equation for you.
00:58:40What do totally huge, monumental, colossal, positively huge matches plus E to the C equal?
00:58:49Total Victorification.
00:58:52Well, whether you agree with Edge and Christian or not, Taz, there's no denying they are undefeated in table ladders and chairs matches.
00:59:04Will they make it three for three tonight?
00:59:08In a pop of Kane cold.
00:59:10Unreal.
00:59:11Kane is on fire.
00:59:13They are on their feet in the pond for Kane.
00:59:16The testy skiddle forwardfall, and it is for the World Wrestling Federation Intercontinental Champions.
00:59:22Coaching the ring, weighing in at 326 pounds.
00:59:26The World Wrestling Federation Intercontinental Champion, Kane!
00:59:30Kane winning that Intercontinental title Sunday night at Judgment Day in a chain match from Triple H!

01:00:00Overstalk them at WWF.
01:00:03And the challenger from Detroit, Michigan, playing at 285 pounds, Rhino!
01:00:12Oh, this man's intense.
01:00:13He lost his hardcore title on Raw Monday night.
01:00:15Demanded to get a title back here tonight.
01:00:18He asked the commissioner for a match against Kane.
01:00:21Oh, Rhino's mad.
01:00:23Very, very mad, and he wants to hurt somebody.
01:00:25Unfortunately, he picked a big red machine to hurt.
01:00:28Well, let's see if he can hurt him and get himself some in the Continental.
01:00:32Well, perhaps this is the night Kane is ripe for the picking task.
01:00:36That broken left arm, he went through that battle at Judgment Day,
01:00:40the chain match against Triple H,
01:00:42and then an extremely tight matchup against Kurt Angle on Raw Monday night.
01:00:45Well, if Rhino's smart, which I don't know how smart he is,
01:00:48he should go after that arm and try and hit some submission,
01:00:51holds that arm and ram that arm into that steel post,
01:00:53that's what he was bringing up.
01:00:55That's what he should do.
01:00:56What is it about Rhino?
01:00:57What is it about this man that makes him dead?
01:00:59He's just angry.
01:01:00I know Rhino for a few years, and I don't know why he's so angry.
01:01:04I mean, but that's what drives Rhino.
01:01:06That's what makes him a man beast.
01:01:08That's what makes Rhino, Rhino.
01:01:10And when he hits you with that gore, it's all over.
01:01:12You can't get out and kick out of that.
01:01:14Kane with a strike, the cyborg slammed to Rhino.
01:01:17And Rhino has an extremely complex personality.
01:01:20Need to learn more about Rhino here in the coming weeks
01:01:22as the big red machine heads to the topper.
01:01:26Obviously, you see Kane do this.
01:01:28The big clothesline.
01:01:30And Rhino knocked down.
01:01:31Big clothesline by Kane.
01:01:33Into the cover of the intercom.
01:01:34He might have him.
01:01:35He might have him.
01:01:36He's gonna kick out.
01:01:37You know, there's gonna be no pinfalls.
01:01:38There's gonna be no submissions later on tonight.
01:01:41Table ladders and chairs coming up next, Taz.
01:01:44The tag team titles will be hanging above the ramp.
01:01:47The fourth greatest team's goal in the World Wrestling Federation.
01:01:50Oh!
01:01:51What a gore to the back.
01:01:52Wow.
01:01:53Of Kane by Rhino.
01:01:55The fourth greatest team.
01:01:56Oh!
01:01:57Oh, man.
01:01:58What a clothesline.
01:02:00What impact by Kane.
01:02:02The cover to Rhino kicks out.
01:02:05I'll try this one more time.
01:02:07The fourth greatest teams of World Wrestling Federation.
01:02:09Maybe the history of it.
01:02:11Are going one-on-one.
01:02:12I'm going.
01:02:13Oh!
01:02:14Look at that impact.
01:02:15I'm going with that PLC match.
01:02:16And a few minutes on SmackDown.
01:02:17I can't play.
01:02:18I'll tell you, Rhino's got Kane reeling.
01:02:20Rhino with some shots to that broken left arm of Kane.
01:02:23The big red machine down to his knees.
01:02:26Rhino's relentless.
01:02:27That's what Rhino needs to do.
01:02:28He knows the deal.
01:02:29Rhino needs to stay on Kane.
01:02:31Intercom title on the line.
01:02:33And the champion's in trouble.
01:02:35Here's the cover.
01:02:36Hook of the leg.
01:02:37Could have him.
01:02:38And Kane kicks out.
01:02:39You think a lot more to beat Kane than that.
01:02:41And Rhino knows it.
01:02:42He's just trying to soften Kane up.
01:02:44Rhino took Kane's best shot.
01:02:46Kane took Rhino's best shot.
01:02:48They're still toe-to-toe, Taz.
01:02:50Rhino, uh, Kane's got to be feeling that quarter to the wall back.
01:02:53Oh!
01:02:54That big shoulder to the gut.
01:02:56Get him out.
01:02:57Rhino's built like a brick house.
01:02:59And he brings it.
01:03:00Two hundred and seventy-five pounds of Rhino incensed that he lost the hardcore title to the big show Monday night on RAW.
01:03:08And Rhino working on Kane with the intercom title on the RAW.
01:03:13Oh!
01:03:14He's going for a furs of the cat.
01:03:15I don't understand.
01:03:16He should be going for that arm.
01:03:17That's just what Rhino's nuts.
01:03:19He don't think sometimes.
01:03:20It's just intense.
01:03:21Look at the strength of Kane.
01:03:23That's two hundred and seventy-five pounds.
01:03:25He just lifts it on his shoulder.
01:03:27It slams to the canvas.
01:03:29Goes Rhino.
01:03:30Unbelievable.
01:03:31Some people pull out an electric chair.
01:03:32And that's what it was.
01:03:33Zing zing.
01:03:34On fire.
01:03:35That was electrifying all right.
01:03:36The elbow delivered to Rhino by Kane.
01:03:38And the Intercontinental Champion building momentum.
01:03:40Boot to the face of Rhino.
01:03:42And I think Kane is beginning to sense it.
01:03:45Beginning to feel the momentum change.
01:03:47And it is changing.
01:03:48And he's got Rhino on the ropes and he knows it.
01:03:50And he's going to go for the kill.
01:03:52Kane playing Rhino with a big power slam.
01:03:56Here's the cover.
01:03:58Hook of the leg.
01:03:59Two.
01:04:00And again, Rhino kicks out.
01:04:01How the hell did he do that?
01:04:02Toughness, Cole.
01:04:03Toughness, Cole.
01:04:04Toughness and survival instincts.
01:04:06That's what Rhino's relying on.
01:04:08Oh, great reversal by Rhino.
01:04:10Oh!
01:04:11Man!
01:04:12Rhino didn't get all of that though, Cole.
01:04:14I think he was surprised how big and heavy Kane actually is.
01:04:17Even though Rhino's a strong dude.
01:04:18He's struggling a little bit on that.
01:04:20Yeah, Kane way, way over 300 pounds.
01:04:23Rhino losing his footy but still got the big man over.
01:04:25And Kane is stunned.
01:04:26And a kick to the back of the head.
01:04:28And Rhino smells the Intercontinental title.
01:04:31And Kane smelt the size 13 right across his face.
01:04:34Here's Rhino going for the gore.
01:04:36Nobody home.
01:04:37He missed it.
01:04:38He went for the big move and missed it.
01:04:41And Kane...
01:04:42Oh, no.
01:04:43Claps Rhino with a chunk slam.
01:04:45One, two, three.
01:04:48Kane, for Kane, the Intercontinental title.
01:04:51But not before a fight for Rhino.
01:04:53Hell of a massive applause.
01:04:55I'd love to see these two go at it again.
01:04:57It wasn't easy for Kane.
01:04:59Kane, no Cole.
01:05:00All right, I went for the big move and he missed it.
01:05:02Kane retaining the Intercontinental title.
01:05:04But Taz, brace yourself.
01:05:06Because coming up next, there's going to be tables, ladders, and chairs.
01:05:11The tag titles are on the line.
01:05:14And Chris, they thought we wouldn't have a chance in hell of winning on Monday.
01:05:19Yeah, that's right.
01:05:20They thought we'd walk out with our heads down and we walked out WWF champions.
01:05:25Some are saying it's a fluke.
01:05:28Others were one hit wonders.
01:05:30Some are saying it was a damn miracle.
01:05:33You know, they stacked the odds against us Monday and we overcame them.
01:05:38Mm-hm.
01:05:39Well, tonight, not only are we facing one of the best teams in WWF,
01:05:43we're facing three of the best teams in the WWF.
01:05:47Yeah.
01:05:48With the belt suspended above the ring, it's their match and they're coming after us.
01:05:54Mm-hm.
01:05:56Well, it seems that the odds are against us, huh?
01:05:58I know you feel the same way, that's the way we like it.
01:06:01So let's go out there tonight and show them it wasn't a miracle.
01:06:04Let's show them who the champions really are.
01:06:06Let's do this, Chris.
01:06:08Come on.
01:06:09Let's compete.
01:06:11TLC for the tag titles next!
01:06:14History in the making on SmackDown.
01:06:19There are the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team titles.
01:06:22They are hanging high above the ring.
01:06:25This is a first-ever table, ladders, and chairs match
01:06:30on broadcast television.
01:06:32And for the first time in World Wrestling Federation history, Taz,
01:06:35four teams will be involved.
01:06:38The rules are simple, Cole.
01:06:40Find the ladder and smash those titles.
01:06:44And you win them.
01:06:46Pulling is a four-way table, splatters, and chairs match for the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Championship.
01:06:56Making their way to the Red Cross here from North Carolina.
01:06:59At a combined weight of 430 pounds, Matt and Jeff, the Hardy Boy!
01:07:05The Hardy Boy!
01:07:06And we have seen in the past that these brothers will stop at nothing.
01:07:10Putting their careers and lives on the line for tag team goals.
01:07:16Heads up, Cole!
01:07:22Welcome back in the hook!
01:07:23And the line with a 545 pounds, Harbaray and Devon, the Dudley Boy!
01:07:31They are the masters of the tables.
01:07:33They're former tag team champions as well.
01:07:36The Dudley Boy's betters of TLC.
01:07:39No doubt, no doubt, no doubt.
01:07:41The Hardys, they'll master those ladders because they're risk-taking the High Flyers.
01:07:46And the Dudleys are the table masters.
01:07:53This is going to be...
01:07:54I can feel it, Cole, man.
01:07:55I'm getting goosebumps.
01:07:56This is going to be sweet.
01:08:02And from Toronto, Ontario,
01:08:03at a combined weight of 455 pounds,
01:08:07Race Jam and Ed!
01:08:09They are seven-time tag team champions,
01:08:12but not their normal swagger here tonight.
01:08:15Edge and Christian Feeney perhaps a bit nervous.
01:08:18Could it be their last walk ever to the reg?
01:08:20The danger factor in this match-up is completely off the chart.
01:08:28No one in the world can dispute what you just said.
01:08:31And as I said, the Dudley's master the tables,
01:08:33the Hardys, master the ladders.
01:08:34Obviously, the chairs are master-fying Edge and Christian.
01:08:38But tonight, there is a fourth team in the world.
01:08:41The tag team champions!
01:08:42Weighing in as 125 pounds
01:08:45is one half of the world.
01:08:47First recursive match to the end,
01:08:50Chris Benoit!
01:08:52What a hellacious week for Chris Benoit.
01:08:55The two out of three false match versus Kurt Angle
01:08:57and then Tag Team Turmoil and Judgment Day.
01:08:59And then winning the tag team titles
01:09:01with Chris Jericho on RAW Monday night.
01:09:05And from one attack, Manitoba.
01:09:07Weighing in at 227 pounds,
01:09:09one half of the World War Series tonight,
01:09:11he's taking this to be...
01:09:12Chris Jericho!
01:09:13Is Chris Jericho fearing the worst?
01:09:14This match-up set up by Mr. McMahon
01:09:15to punish Benoit Jericho!
01:09:17Look for these four teams, eight men,
01:09:19risking their careers, their lives,
01:09:20all for the tag team titles!
01:09:21Tables, ladders, chairs!
01:09:22Next!
01:09:23Weighing in at 227 pounds,
01:09:24one half of the World War Series tonight,
01:09:26he's taking this to be...
01:09:27Chris Jericho!
01:09:28Is Chris Jericho fearing the worst?
01:09:30This match-up set up by Mr. McMahon
01:09:32to punish Benoit Jericho!
01:09:34Look for these four teams, eight men,
01:09:37risking their careers, their lives,
01:09:39all for the tag team titles!
01:09:41Tables, ladders, chairs!
01:09:44Next!
01:09:49We are back on SmackDown Tag Team Titles,
01:09:52high above the ring,
01:09:53for the first time ever!
01:09:54A 14 table, ladders, and chairs match!
01:09:57The champions, Benoit Jericho!
01:09:59The challenger, Dejan Christian!
01:10:01The Duttonys and Hardys!
01:10:03And here we go!
01:10:04And look at the strategy of the TLC Masters!
01:10:07Go for the champions and take them out!
01:10:10Very smart by Edge, Christian, Dudleys, and Hardys!
01:10:13Very smart!
01:10:14Edge the first one to go
01:10:16for the ladder outside the ring!
01:10:18And as the Dudleys and Hardys are busy with the champions,
01:10:20Edge and Christian trying to sneak away
01:10:22with the tag team titles!
01:10:24You gotta love it! Look at this!
01:10:26And wisely, the Dudleys and Hardys
01:10:28cut them off at the pass!
01:10:29I'll tell you, the rules are simple
01:10:31in this match-up task!
01:10:32Like I said earlier, you just gotta climb up there,
01:10:34snatch those titles,
01:10:36and you win them!
01:10:38It's that easy!
01:10:39Well, not easy, but it's that's the way it goes!
01:10:41The champions, Benoit Jericho,
01:10:42don't even have to be involved in the decision
01:10:44to lose the tag titles!
01:10:45That's why Mr. McMahon knew exactly what he was doing
01:10:48setting this type of match-up up!
01:10:50Oh, what impact!
01:10:53Inside the ring, Bubba Ray and Jeff Hardy,
01:10:55Devon, and Mad Hardy,
01:10:57Edge Christian, Benoit Jericho
01:10:59outside the ring, and Bubba Ray misses!
01:11:01Nobody home!
01:11:02There's just bodies all over the place already!
01:11:04I mean, right in front of the table,
01:11:06you can't see it!
01:11:07I mean, you got E and C hanging out,
01:11:08and they're doing something!
01:11:09They're up to something, Shady!
01:11:10I mean, and the Hardys are just capitalized
01:11:12on the Ws!
01:11:13Jeff Hardy delivering a right hand to Devon!
01:11:15Look at that!
01:11:16The first use of the ladder tonight!
01:11:18Baking it off the skull of Bubba Ray Dudley!
01:11:21The first example of the punishment in this match!
01:11:24Wow!
01:11:25Jeff Hardy, poetry, and motion.
01:11:26Wow!
01:11:27Tables, ladders, chairs, all weapons!
01:11:31And look at that!
01:11:32Poetry in motion!
01:11:33Ladder up the skull!
01:11:35Oh, man!
01:11:36Oh, man!
01:11:37Wow!
01:11:38The champions back into the ring!
01:11:40Big Ron Jericho,
01:11:41never been involved in a tables, ladders, and chairs match!
01:11:45And they're making pretty good use of the ladders right now!
01:11:48Did you see Benoit just snap suplex Bubba on that ladder?
01:11:52Unreal!
01:11:53Check out the impact Jeff Hardy off the ladder,
01:11:56and now the tag team champions, Benoit and Jericho,
01:11:59are cooking!
01:12:00Placed into this match by Mr. McMahon for ultimate punishment!
01:12:04I don't know how!
01:12:06I don't know what the fuck was gonna get up too quick
01:12:08after that snap suplex on that ladder!
01:12:10That was everything he stuffed by Benoit!
01:12:12Now Agent Christian attacking Benoit from behind,
01:12:15and the Masters of TLC, Agent Christian,
01:12:19showing their expertise!
01:12:21Land of the world!
01:12:22Unreal!
01:12:23I mean, it's just...
01:12:24Listen to people, they want tables!
01:12:26Well, you're getting ladders, you're getting chairs,
01:12:27you're getting everything, you baby!
01:12:29Kaz, only six people in the history of sports entertainment
01:12:34before tonight have ever competed in a table, ladders, and chairs match,
01:12:38but, oh!
01:12:39Look out, Jericho!
01:12:40What impact!
01:12:41And, you know, we've seen Jericho, you know,
01:12:43how he has some experience with ladders,
01:12:44so very little, though, and so does Benoit, very little,
01:12:46but he's in there, as we've been saying all night long,
01:12:50with the Masters of the TLC, these three great teams,
01:12:53W's, Edge, and Christian, and Hall.
01:12:55Well, Edge and Christian going for the tag team titles,
01:12:57if they reach the goal, they will win the tag team championship,
01:13:01but Matt Hardy counters!
01:13:02What a power bomb!
01:13:04Off that ladder, edge to the top now,
01:13:06and Matt, a shot to the chest!
01:13:08Edge is real close there, and that game a shot to the gut!
01:13:11Oh, look out, Benoit!
01:13:13Here goes Edge!
01:13:14Here goes Matt Hardy!
01:13:15Unbelievable!
01:13:17Unreal!
01:13:18I've been in all sorts of matches, Cole,
01:13:20but never, ever would I have been in one of these matches!
01:13:23Aw!
01:13:24And what do I want to be in one of these matches?
01:13:26What kind of strategy would you employ in a match like this?
01:13:29I don't know!
01:13:30I'm sitting here next to you!
01:13:32You've got to be a little nuts, and you've got to have a lot of speed,
01:13:35and a lot of guts, and a lot of luck, too!
01:13:38Well, all the teams in there have guts, I'll tell you that!
01:13:41But regardless of any type of strategy, Taz,
01:13:44these men are, they're risking their careers!
01:13:46Oh, look at this!
01:13:48Look out!
01:13:50Look out!
01:13:51What's he doing?
01:13:52Table!
01:13:53Oh!
01:13:54And missed!
01:13:55Bedouin through the table!
01:13:57Oh, he landed hard and cold!
01:14:00Right on his ribs!
01:14:02His jaw might have popped off the floor, too!
01:14:05I believe Bedouin, Taz, may have gotten the wind knocked out of him,
01:14:09just an example of what these guys put themselves through for Tag Team Gold,
01:14:13and now the race for the titles!
01:14:15Terrible to be in trouble, because I think this part of Chris Bedouin's out!
01:14:19Bedouin with that flying headbutt through the table!
01:14:22Bubba Race got to the goal!
01:14:24Bubba Race got to the goal!
01:14:25Bubba Race got to the goal!
01:14:26Right hand to Jellicoe!
01:14:29What are they gonna do?
01:14:31Someone's gonna go flying!
01:14:32One down!
01:14:34Two Dudleys to Hardy and what happened to Tag Team Champions of the ring!
01:14:38Now it's down to Jellicoe!
01:14:40Oh, my God!
01:14:41A Bulldog from the top of the radical!
01:14:44A Bulldog!
01:14:46Bedouin!
01:14:47Bedouin's still down!
01:14:48Chris Bedouin taking another look!
01:14:51I'm gonna go check on him!
01:14:52While Taz is going to check out Bedouin,
01:14:54as the rabid Wolverine flew off the top rope through a table,
01:14:58and he has yet to move!
01:14:59Get it out!
01:15:01I hear Taz calling for help, but if Bedouin's out,
01:15:05Mr. McMahon and Stone Cold Steve Austin got exactly what they wanted!
01:15:10Come on, hurry up!
01:15:12It's been a wild week for Bedouin and Chris Jericho!
01:15:17You hear Taz saying, it looks like it may be his ribs!
01:15:20Hurry up!
01:15:21Chris Bedouin's been hurt!
01:15:23He's been hurt badly!
01:15:24Oh, this is not a good scene for what happened!
01:15:26Tag Team Champions just an example of the risk of these tables, ladders, and chairs matches!
01:15:40As Bedouin's being loaded onto the stretcher, another look!
01:15:42Chris Bedouin's body crashing through the table, and if Bedouin's gone,
01:15:47so is the opportunity to repay the tag team gold!
01:15:51Jericho has the heart of the lion, but he can't even overcome these odds!
01:15:56It's a damn shame that this dream week for the Tag Team Champions is gonna end like this!
01:16:03Back on SmackDown Tables, ladders, and chairs, taking the toll on what happened to Tag Team Champions.
01:16:13Chris Bedouin taking to the back, being examined by EMTs after crashing through a table.
01:16:18And here's Edge, climbing the ladder, trying to get to the Tag Team Titles.
01:16:23The odds are insurmountable for Chris Jericho now!
01:16:26Edge, he's climbing to the top rope!
01:16:29Jericho all alone, trying to make it into the ring!
01:16:32And he better grab him quickly, or he's gonna lose his titles!
01:16:35He's fighting for Benoit right now, and Benoit's outta here!
01:16:38Chris Jericho now, Edge top of the ladders, Tag Team Titles on the line!
01:16:43If Jericho gets the gold, he'll retain the Tag Team Titles!
01:16:47If Jericho can step on his back or something, and use him to get up on that ladder!
01:16:52Oh no, he's not gonna... Look at this!
01:16:54Oh my God! It was a Jericho! A play to Edge!
01:16:58On top of the ladder!
01:17:00That's gotta be excruciating on your lower back!
01:17:04And now Christian, from behind, pounding away at Jericho.
01:17:08Jericho's partner, Chris Benoit!
01:17:10Oh man!
01:17:11And I'll tell ya, good thing Jericho would've hit that ladder, or he'd be back on the stretch of his corner!
01:17:16Edge and Christian close to becoming Tag Team Champions for an eighth time!
01:17:20They have to go right here!
01:17:22It's out, Christian!
01:17:24And out, chugging on the top rope!
01:17:26It's a car wreck, Cole!
01:17:28It's like a damn Demolition Derby!
01:17:30And now Matt Hardy and Bubba Ray in the ring!
01:17:34First time on SmackDown!
01:17:36These people are witnessing history in the making, Cole!
01:17:40TLC for the Tag Titles!
01:17:42Wow!
01:17:43Chris Benoit's been taken to the back by the MTs!
01:17:46We've been told, his ribs are bruised, perhaps could be broken!
01:17:50It looks like Jericho and Benoit are gonna lose to Tag Titles tonight!
01:17:54Matt Hardy!
01:17:55Oh!
01:17:56What a hip toss by Devon!
01:17:58Huge hip toss!
01:17:59Eight feet off that ladder!
01:18:00Oh no, look out!
01:18:04Jesse!
01:18:05Oh!
01:18:06Suplex off the top of the ladder!
01:18:08Oh my God!
01:18:09Did you see the impact?
01:18:10That had to be 15 or 20 feet, Cole!
01:18:13That was all impact!
01:18:14Oh my God!
01:18:15We gotta take another look at the action!
01:18:17First, Chris Jericho!
01:18:19Christian from behind, saving his partner Edge!
01:18:22Look at this!
01:18:23Big face!
01:18:24First of the top turnbuckle!
01:18:25Oh man!
01:18:27Look at this!
01:18:28Wow!
01:18:29Christian off that ladder, over the top rope from the floor below!
01:18:31I don't know what to say, Cole!
01:18:32I don't even know how to call this!
01:18:34Oh!
01:18:35And Edge suck on the same thing!
01:18:37But check out the suplex!
01:18:3915 feet high!
01:18:41Off the top of the ladder!
01:18:43Bubba Ray Dudley taking Jeff Hardy to the mat below!
01:18:48And Jeff Hardy may have been broken in a million pieces!
01:18:53Yeah!
01:18:54It's carnage outside the ring!
01:18:57What the hell is he doing out here?!
01:19:02Benoit!
01:19:03The rapid Wolverine!
01:19:04On his way back out to the ring!
01:19:06Look at his face, Cole!
01:19:08He looks...
01:19:09He looks rapid!
01:19:10I don't believe he's out here!
01:19:12Listen up, man!
01:19:13Phil Cole, Steve Austin, he's from the legs!
01:19:16They've gotta be enjoying this!
01:19:17I'm sure they are!
01:19:18But Benoit!
01:19:20Benoit's hurt!
01:19:21He shouldn't be out here, Cole!
01:19:22Of course he shouldn't be out here!
01:19:24But Chris Benoit!
01:19:25The show alone in the world!
01:19:28Shows you how important!
01:19:29Can he do it?
01:19:31Can Benoit climb the ladder?
01:19:32Can he climb the ladder?
01:19:33Can he climb the ladder?
01:19:34And he's got a few more steps to go!
01:19:36And he can retain his goal!
01:19:38Can he get to the tag team?
01:19:39And Edge pulling Benoit down!
01:19:41And the Wolverine battling back with everything he's got!
01:19:45Unbelievable!
01:19:46Chris Benoit is the Wolverine Machines!
01:19:48I cannot believe that he's fighting!
01:19:51But Christian wisely goes to work on the ropes of Benoit!
01:19:55Oh man, he's laying those boots in two!
01:19:58And Benoit's gotta be feeling nothing but pain!
01:20:00And now the chair is into the ring!
01:20:02We told you the preliminary report!
01:20:03Benoit may have broken ribs, but he's out here anyway!
01:20:06This is nuts, man!
01:20:08This is nuts, man!
01:20:09It's awesome!
01:20:10Edge and Christian, steel chairs at hand!
01:20:13Oh, this doesn't look good!
01:20:15Benoit covering his head!
01:20:17And the concerto!
01:20:18To the ribs of Benoit!
01:20:20Listen to him screaming, Cole!
01:20:23The pain that Benoit's in!
01:20:25Benoit covered up his head!
01:20:27And Edge and Christian got him in the ribs!
01:20:29And Boomerang Dudley with a slam!
01:20:32And listen to this crowd!
01:20:37We're gonna hit this big works up!
01:20:41You know we've seen this one!
01:20:42Come and come on!

01:20:44It's coming!
01:20:45It's coming!
01:20:46It's coming!
01:20:47It's there!
01:20:48Can the Dudley boys be on the verge of regaining the tag team titles?
01:20:52You know it.
01:20:53Are there!
01:20:58The Dudley!

01:21:00Are therewise, find out more!
01:21:01Gotta becusing!
01:21:02With Bubba dully to get the tables.
01:21:09How are the Dudley boys going to going to work?
01:21:11It's wood time.
01:21:12Take another look at the concerto task
01:21:14instinctively covering his head and his gunlock
01:21:18but his bruised for having broken ribs
01:21:20suffering the impact on the concerto.
01:21:24He's driving the pod chanting for the tables
01:21:28and they're going to get him.
01:21:30They're gonna get him, but who's gonna be the victim that goes through the table?
01:21:36But Dudley should be coming in! Jericho! Jericho steals!
01:21:40To the back of the bubble on Dudley!
01:21:44Oh, the divine!
01:21:46Look at that call! Jericho!
01:21:48Oh, my God! Wow!
01:21:50Did you hear that thud echo through the arrowhead pod?
01:21:53What a shot! Christian just hit Y2J with.
01:21:57Hey, Edge and Christian, the masters of the chairs!
01:22:00Christian, he's a la la la!
01:22:03Yeah! Wow!
01:22:05Listen to this!
01:22:07It's Jericho's steel chair!
01:22:10And the receipt for Christian!
01:22:13That was so genuine!
01:22:15Whoa! Jericho just getting over that concussion from a week ago!
01:22:19I forgot about that! You're right, Flo!
01:22:22Bubba Ray definitely out of the table, and perhaps the tables are gonna come back to haunt!
01:22:26Bubba Ray and Devon Dudley!
01:22:28Could you imagine that?
01:22:30Could you imagine Bubba being put through the table?
01:22:32What's Christian up to here?
01:22:34This is all about the tag team titles hanging above the ring!
01:22:38First team to grab the gold wins!
01:22:40The gold, the tag titles are just perched up there, sitting and waiting for someone to grab them!
01:22:46And Devon with a shot to the ribs of Christian! No!
01:22:50Oh no!
01:22:52I've never seen this! Look at that!
01:22:53No!
01:22:543-D!
01:22:55From the top of the ladder!
01:22:57The ultimate 3-D!
01:23:00From the Dudley Boys!
01:23:01That's like a 4-D!
01:23:03That was unreal!
01:23:05Christian is out!
01:23:07Oh, he's gotta be out!
01:23:08He ain't getting up from that!
01:23:09Wow!
01:23:10The Dudley's need to get that ladder onto those titles and climb up there and get it!
01:23:15There are bodies lying everywhere!
01:23:17And check out the ultimate 3-D!
01:23:20Can you imagine what that felt like?
01:23:23He probably didn't feel that!
01:23:24He probably got knocked down home!
01:23:26Oh, look out now!
01:23:27The Hardy Boys and Bubba Ray outside the ring!
01:23:29Bubba Ray fighting back!
01:23:31And Matt Hardy's up!
01:23:32He's running on an out table!
01:23:34And the monitor!
01:23:35TV monitor!

01:24:34Jeff Hardy!

01:24:36Oh, my God!
01:24:37Jeff Hardy!
01:24:38Jeff Hardy!
01:24:39From 20 feet in the air!
01:24:40Through Bummer Ray Dudley!
01:24:41I'm speechless, Cole!
01:24:42I don't know what to say!
01:24:43I can't believe it!
01:24:44Jeff Hardy!
01:24:45Jeff Hardy!
01:24:46I'm speechless, Cole!
01:24:47I don't know what to say!
01:24:48I can't believe it!
01:24:49Jeff Hardy!

01:24:56And check this out!
01:24:57The impact!
01:24:58Through Bummer Ray!
01:24:59Through the announce table!
01:25:01Jeff Hardy has no regard for his body!
01:25:05He sure as hell on!
01:25:07And Jeff Hardy's gotta be feeling his elbow!
01:25:09Look at this Cole!
01:25:10Unbelievable!
01:25:11He's gotta be feeling his elbow!
01:25:12But Bubba!
01:25:13Look at him!
01:25:14Look right at his face!
01:25:15He's outpulling, man!
01:25:16But Devon's in the ring with a ladder!
01:25:17Matt Hardy with a ladder as well!
01:25:18Jeff Hardy sacrificing his body!
01:25:20So his brother can get into the ring!
01:25:22And try to get to the tag team titles!
01:25:24Someone better get help out here for these guys!
01:25:28It is a race for the tag titles!
01:25:30Matt Hardy and Devon!
01:25:33They're fighting away for it, Cole!
01:25:38Oh, look out!
01:25:39Here's the ring!
01:25:40Twist the ring!
01:25:41Twist the ring!
01:25:42Twist the ring!
01:25:43No!
01:25:44Twist the ring off the ladder!
01:25:45Devon convulsing in the ring!
01:25:48Matt Hardy trying to make it to his feet!
01:25:51This is unbelievable!
01:25:53You only see stuff like this on a pay-per-view!
01:25:56But check this out!
01:25:57Check this out!
01:25:58Twist the ring from the top!
01:25:59Look at this!
01:26:00Oh, my gosh!
01:26:02Shout from the top of the ladder!
01:26:04And you can feel the impact right in your living room!
01:26:06And now Matt Hardy all over the ring with the ultimate prize!
01:26:10That's it!
01:26:11He's gonna get it, Cole!
01:26:12The Hardys are gonna get the titles right now!
01:26:14There's no one here to stop him!
01:26:16The Hardys are gonna get it!
01:26:18Matt Hardy coming for the goal!
01:26:20Matt Hardy's almost there!
01:26:23Hardy to the top of the ladder!
01:26:25It's Jericho!
01:26:26It's Jericho covered by Matt Hardy!
01:26:28And Jericho!
01:26:29Oh, no!
01:26:30Oh, no!
01:26:31Come on for the top rope!
01:26:32Cole, his body's everywhere around this ring side!
01:26:38I can't believe this!
01:26:39Chris Jericho went out for the tag team champions tag!
01:26:43Trying desperately to retain the titles!
01:26:46The gold had him on his head!
01:26:49First team will reach the gold!
01:26:52Wins the tag team championship!
01:26:54And it looks like Y2J is going up for him and Benoit right now!
01:27:00To get his gold!
01:27:01This is not what Mr. McMahon and Stone Cold wanted!
01:27:04This is supposed to be the ultimate punishment for Jericho and Benoit!
01:27:08He ain't got the ladder under the titles though, Cole!
01:27:11Jericho's a little out of it!
01:27:13Edge!
01:27:14Edge is up!
01:27:15Jericho to the top of the ladder near the gold!
01:27:17Edge with a score!
01:27:19My fear!
01:27:21What do you say about that, Cole?
01:27:24A spear from the top of the ladder!
01:27:27A spear by Edge to Chris Jericho!
01:27:31And let's take another look!
01:27:33Feel the impact!
01:27:34Jericho's head bounced off the mat like a rubber ball!
01:27:38Look at this!
01:27:39Oh, God!
01:27:41It is one of the greatest nights in World Wrestling Federation history!
01:27:46And it's not over!
01:27:47Look at Benoit, Cole!
01:27:48Chris Benoit, the Rabid Wolverine!
01:27:51Perhaps with broken ribs!
01:27:53Standing in the ring!
01:27:55Benoit should be in a hospital!
01:27:58Not in a damn ring in a TLC match!
01:28:01But instead, Benoit is under his 10-team titles!
01:28:05And he's gonna go for it!
01:28:06Can he do it?
01:28:07Can he have some chances to win the climb?
01:28:09That's what I want to see!
01:28:10Can Benoit get to the gold?
01:28:12The guts!
01:28:13The guts!
01:28:14The resilience!
01:28:15Of the Rabid Wolverine!
01:28:17What does the tag team titles mean to Chris Benoit?
01:28:20He's almost there!
01:28:22How...
01:28:23How can he do this?
01:28:24How painful is this?
01:28:25And his ribs!
01:28:26He's...
