June 7, 2000
Location: Civic Coliseum, Knoxville, Tennessee
Attendance: 3,088
Commentators: Tony Schiavone, Mike Tenay, Bobby Heenan
Bischoff and lawyers arrive. Oh geez this is going to be bad.
Opening sequence.
Russo and David Flair bring in a bunch of senior citizens for some reason with Russo insulting all of them.
Kimberly and Jarrett are yelling at Bischoff while Cat yells at both of them. Jeff finally tells all of them, including Cat, to get out.
Cruiserweight Title: Daffney vs. Lieutenant Loco vs. Disco Inferno
Gunns gives Chavo CPR because a match not even lasting three minutes has knocked him out.
Russo summons the Cat.
After a break, Cat has ejected the MIA from the building.
Kidman vs. Major Stash
Kidman has Horace with him. Before the match, Kidman says he knows they can trust each other after Monday. That might be a record for their longest time since turning on each other. Kidman goes after Stash to start but the big guy throws him down and knocks Horace to the floor where he belongs. Stash starts taking over with the power and tosses Kidman out of the corner with ease.
Kidman calls Torrie down for some “making up” but she slaps him in the face and leaves.
And now, a dance lesson with the Cat as he teaches the group of seniors. One of them threatens to smack the bleach out of his hair. This has been a dance lesson with the Cat.
Rick Steiner, Tank Abbott and the Goldberg truck are here.
Bischoff says Goldberg is arrested if he comes in the building. Will the cops pull guns on him like they did with Hogan a few months back?
Hardcore Title: Mamalukes vs. The Wall
Goldberg is in the back.
Cat yells at some cops.
Mike Awesome arrives in his ambulance.
Corporal Cajun vs. Mike Awesome
Awesome fights back with a halo shot and powerbombs Page through the table.
Hollywood Hogan arrives.
The cops are too busy looking at Kimberly to go after Goldberg.
Tag Team Titles: GI Bro/Captain Rection vs. Shawn Stasiak/Chuck Palumbo
Kronik comes out to help destroy the champions.
Sting vs. The Cat
Before the match we get some dancing and bad grammar from Cat. Sting comes down but gets jumped by Vampiro, who sprays him with a fire extinguisher. No match, which is probably best for everyone all around.
Gauntlet Match
Chris does better than anyone did on Nitro, surviving a full thirty seconds before getting pinned by a belly to belly superplex. A regular belly to belly puts Stasiak away in another twenty seconds (counting time spent running to the ring). Palumbo comes in, picks up Midajah, and gets caught in the Recliner for the submission. Scott Steiner just beat both Tag Team Champions in one minute even. Cat takes a Recliner of his own but the rest of the New Blood comes in and the match is thrown out.
