Night Raw
Date: April 8, 2002
Location: America West Arena, Phoenix, Arizona
Attendance: 13,500
Commentators: Jim Ross, Jerry Lawler
Opening sequence.
Hardcore Title: Bubba Ray Dudley vs. Booker T.
Kane vs. X-Pac
European Title: William Regal vs. Spike Dudley
Spike is challenging and hits Regal in the face with the brass knuckles to win in three seconds. The referee is fine with Regal being knocked unconscious before the bell.
Rob Van Dam vs. Undertaker
Trish Stratus vs. Molly Holly
Paul Heyman tells Brock Lesnar to not attack fans, even here in Phoenix.
Big Show vs. Mr. Perfect
Scott Hall vs. Steve Austin
Rating: D-. Both of these guys need to be off this show almost immediately. Austin might have a bit of a role for a while but Hall was a DISASTER here, barely able to do even the most basic stuff right and looking embarrassing in the process. The fact that we had four people interfere and two ref bumps in a nine minute match to hide how bad this would have been otherwise tells you all you need to know.
Austin Stuns Flair to end the show.
