Kurt Angle vs. John Cena
Cena throws him off to break a front facelock and gets two off a good looking spinebuster. The Angle Slam is countered into a DDT for some near falls (Taz: “RUTHLESS AGGRESSION! THERE IT IS!” Is that what it is? Multiple pinfall attempts?) and a powerslam gets the same. Kurt finally has enough and grabs a double chickenwing rollup for the pin.
Tag Team Titles: Hardcore Holly/Big Valbowski vs. Billy and Chuck
Tajiri likes looking at Nidia so Jamie Noble offers her to him if they win their tag match later.
Mark Henry vs. Lance Storm
Torrie models more lingerie. Yeah she looks amazing but this is the kind of thing that makes people criticize wrestling.
Test vs. Rikishi
Test gets a Stinkface before Christian and Storm can come out for the late save.
Test rants about how much America sucks.
Billy Kidman/Hurricane vs. Tajiri/Jamie Noble
Rey Mysterio is coming.
Reverend D-Von/Deacon Batista vs. Faarooq/Randy Orton
Hulk Hogan vs. Chris Jericho
