The Hardcore Wrestling Federation
HWF's Monday Night Manliness
Live every week from University Hall in
Charlottesville, Virginia
The three major wrestling federations have dissolved,
leaving only Matt Johnson's H.W.F. All of the stars of E.C.W., W.C.W.,
N.W.O. and the W.W.F. are now in the new H.W.F. The World Champion is Steve
Austin. The U.S. champ is cWo member, Sabu, the t.v. champion is Shawn
Michaels, and the tag team champions are the Pump Masters, Scott Steiner
and Gusberg. Last night at the Pay-Per-View, cWo members, Matt Johnson
and Erik "The Even Badder Guy" Bushey won control of the HWF with their
victory over the LOD's Shane McMahon and Eric Bischoff. Tonight, Johnson
will announce who the #1 contender for the HWF title will be and he will
also have a huge announcement about the last HWF Monday Night Manliness
of the half year, HWF's Summer Massacre and about the future of the Legion
of Doom members. Also, Raven will face the man who cost him the HWF title
last night, his former friend, Cactus Jack, Sabu will defend his newly
won U.S. title against a mystery opponent who Matt Johnson says is a former
triple crown winner in ECW. Scott Hall will also make an announcement concerning
the future of the Outsiders. New Jack will take on Tommy Dreamer in a falls-count
anywhere match and Shawn Michaels will defend the T.V. strap in a 3 way
dance with The Rock and Rob Van Dam.

cWo leader and HWF owner, Matt Johnson
The C'Ville Icon came to the ring with the rest of the C'Ville World
Order as confetti and party balloons filled the ring. Oddly enough, cWo
member, Chris Jericho came out wearing the HWF belt, even though Steve
Austin is the champion, and with a new side-kick dressed like the Blue
Blazer. Big Johnson Cool took the mic and addressed the crowd. "The HWF
is finally back in the rightful hands of the man who made pro wrestling
what it is today, me. I told everyone that me and the Even Badder Guy were
going to rule some ass last night and we did it. Now, thanks to that jack-off
Shane McMahon, the C'Ville Beacon of Truth has to set some things straight
in the HWF. For one, I can not stand to have a filthy, beer-swilling redneck
as my HWF World Champion. That's why the new #1 contender to the HWF title
is a man who will bring old school values back to the HWF, a man who will
bring honor back to the HWF title, and that man is Y2J himself, Chris Jericho.
And to assist him in his quest, is a very good friend of mine and the newest
member of the cWo, The Old School Avenger, Neil Little. And for all of
you concerned parents out there who are worried that Steve Austin will
come out here and corrupt your children's minds, don't worry because Y2J
and the Old School Avenger have already done us a favor and punked him
out in the back and taken the belt. And Austin, if you want it back, you've
got to come to Summer Massacre and take it from the cWo in a ladder match.
Don't think that I've forgotten about you Raven. I think that after last
night's total thrashing of Shane McMahon, that it's clear to the world
that not only am I the best wrestling owner in the world, that I am also
the best new wrestling talent in the world. So, Raven, I will take it upon
myself to rid the HWF of your grungy stink once and for all at Summer
Massacre. I'm going to stick my foot so far up your ass, that you'll have
my boot imprint on your tongue. I'm tired of playing games with you Raven,
so let's make this match, a steel cage match. As far as the Legion of Doom
goes, I think I've made it clear that you don't cross the boss. Shane McMahon
and Eric Bischoff are finished in the world of pro wrestling thanks to
Big Johnson Cool and The Even Badder Guy, but that leaves a problem What
to do with all of the talent they had locked up in their little stable?
Well, for starters, there is no room for 45 year old, alcoholic has-beens
who never were, so Jake the Snake, you win a one way trip to the unemployment
line and do not pass go or collect $200. I also don't want two broken down,
face painted morons, so Road Warriors, keep Jake company and help him finish
that bottle of Mad Dog 20/20 I know he'll be trying to drown his sorrows
in. Since I am a forgiving man, I will offer positions to Kane, the Undertaker
and Goldberg in my HWF as long as they play by my rules and that means
eliminating who I want, when I want and that starts tonight when Kane takes
on Steve Austin. As always, I remain your beacon of truth and your C'Ville
Icon, so when I say this, take it as the gospel because the cWo is not
just 4LIFE, it's 4EVER."With that, Johnson passed the mic to the new #1
contender to the HWF crown, Chris Jericho. "I think that my esteemed colleague,
Mr. Johnson said everything that needed to be said, but Y2J is going to
add a little bit anyway. With Neil "The Old School Avenger" Little and
the Big Red Regulator by my side, Y2J will rid the HWF of the filth that
is Cold Stone Steve Boston. He knows that Y2J is going to beat that bald
melon of his so badly that I'm sure that he'd be trying to sell this belt
on Ebay, so myself and Mr.Little took it upon ourselves to relieve it from
his dastardly clutches and at Summer Massacre we will give Steve Boston
an old school Y2J beating that he will never, eh-ever recover from, again."
vs. 
New Jack
Tommy Dreamer
New Jack demanded this match after Dreamer accidentally hit him
with a chair at the pay-per view. Both men came to the ring and Tommy tried
to explain that the chair shot wasn't meant for New Jack and that it was
an accident. New Jack grabbed the microphone and said, "Well, I understand
it was an accident, but I'm going to have to accidentally whoop your ass."
With that New Jack knocked Dreamer in the head with the mic and busted
him open. New Jack threw Dreamer into the ropes and executed one of the
6 wrestling moves he knows, the clothesline. New Jack kicked Dreamer and
tossed him to the outside and used the second wrestling move that he knows,
the guitar shot to the skull. Dreamer got in a low blow and used a Spicolli
Driver through a table to stun the Original Gangsta. The Innovator of Violence
tossed New Jack over the security railing and they fought in the crowd
and ended up close to the balcony of University Hall. Dreamer tried to
ddt New Jack on the floor, but The OG back dropped him and hit him with
a chair. New Jack cleared all of the stuff off of the concession stand
table and piledrove Dreamer on top of it. New Jack then went up through
the crowd, and was preparing to leap from the balcony, which was 15 feet
from the floor, onto Dreamer, when Terry Funk emerged from the crowd and
nailed him with a chair. The impact of the chair shot sent New Jack off
the balcony and through the table. Dreamer crawled over and made the cover
for the win. After the match, Funk came down and hugged Dreamer, but as
soon as Tommy turned his back, Funk hit him with a steel chair and piledrove
him on the concrete. Funk spit on both men and called them, "ungrateful
sons of bitches". winner-Tommy Dreamer
interview-Scott Hall and Kevin Nash
The Outsiders 2000 came out and Hall took the mic. "Hey yo, there ain't
no survey tonight because we all know that the Outsiders are too sweet.
Me and Big Kev are gonna cut to the chase right now. I know I lost my U.S.
title last night, but a night at the strip club helped ease my pain. Matt
Johnson, last night the Outsiders 2000 helped you and your boy out last
night. Now me and Big Kev are noted humanitarians, but we would like a
little favor in return. You see, we are sick and tired of that pill-popping,
needle injecting, freak, Scott Steiner and that milk-dud head, Gusberg
running around claiming to be tough. The reason there ain't no tag team
wrasslin on this station, is because Big Sexy and Super Sexy were pre-occupied
with singles gold. Now the band is back together and we want a shot at
the Punk Masters or whatever the hell their name is. Also, we know you
don't want Steve Austin as the champ, so here's the deal. With Big Kev
and myself soon to be wearing tag gold and HBK with the T.V. strap, there
ain't nothing for The Game, Triple H to do. Well, why don't you let him
into that ladder match at Summer Massacre and that way, either him or Jericho
will walk out with the strap. You see, the Outsiders 2000 know how to play
ball, so even if your boy don't win the belt, you'll know that you will
have a corporate champion in Triple H. Some people would call this selling
out, but the Outsiders need some cash to finance the Scott Hall Strip Club
Tour 2000 and it's like my boys in the Wu-Tang say, C.R.E.A.M., Cash Rules
Everything Around Me." cWo leader, Matt Johnson came out with a mic and
addressed the Outsiders 2000. "I am grateful for the help you guys provided
at the pay-per view so, I will grant you two a title shot at the Pump Masters.
It's the second request I have a little trouble with. You see, I'm all
for having Triple H as insurance in the ladder match and I like him for
all of the ass-kickings he gave the Rock in the WWF, but you see, there
is another guy out there that I think deserves a shot at being the corporate
champion. He's given this sport over 25 years of his life and he deserves
one last run at the title and that man is Ric Flair. So if Triple H can
beat Flair tonight, he's in the ladder match in 2 weeks. And just to make
it fair, if any of the Outsiders 2000 or Horsemen interfere, then there
will be an instant dq. That's disqualification for all of you dumbasses
out there in t.v. land."
vs. 
Cactus Jack
Raven
Cactus came out first with the Cult and took the mic. "I know you
people want an explanation on why I turned on Scott Levy last night, but
since most of you fans out there have the attention span of a gnat, I'm
going to give you a little history lesson first. You see, before the HWF
started, Matt Johnson approached me and Scott and asked us to be in the
cWo. I wanted to give in, but I let Scott talk me out of it and we concocted
a plot to deceive the greatest man on earth, Matt Johnson, where I would
join the cWo as Dude Love and basically hand the belt over to Scotty. I
did this because I thought Scott Levy was a caring man, a good man, but
after his recent treatment of myself and my fellow Cult members in recent
weeks,, I had to break away. You see when I look at Raven, I see a young
man who has thrown away his life in an attempt to be hardcore like me.
Scott Levy at one time, was a clean-cut, technically sound wrestler. Then
he met me in ECW and threw it all away. I know that I've become some sort
of patron saint to all of the sick bastards out there who cut themselves
up in America's backyards and I know that I deserve to burn in hell for
it. But in you, Scott Levy, I see my opportunity for redemption. You see,
by saving your soul and delivering you to Matt Johnson, maybe I'll have
a shot at salvation. Are you listening to me Scotty? The hardcore life
is a lie. I first learned that 6 years ago in Germany when Vader took my
ear. As a piece of my body lay in the wastebasket at the hospital, a nurse
looked at it and said, "Eist ist alles schauspeil?", which is german for,
"It's all a show, right?" The point was also reinforced at Wrestlemania
2000, when I came out of retirement for the bloodthirsty masses and put
my body on the line once again. If you have a tape of that match, rewind
it to after Triple H pedigreed me on the chair and listen to how the chants
of "Rocky, Rocky, Rocky" drowned out the "Foley" cheers. At that moment
I learned that no matter how many cages I fall off, no matter how many
ears I have to lose, no matter how many powerbombs I take on the floor
and no matter how many brain cells had to die from repeated chair shots,
the fans chanted not for a man who gave 15 years of his life to them, but
to a catch phrase spitting punk who has been in the sport only 3 years
and has had everything handed to him on a silver platter. That's why, Scotty,
you need to listen, not to those sick mutants out there chanting for your
blood, but to this man in the ring, praying for your soul. I want you to
wash your hair, put on some wrestling tights, shave that goatee and call
up Matt Johnson. I know I've burned my bridges to the cWo and I that I
can never go back there, but by delivering you to Matt Johnson, I'd not
only be helping you, I'd be also be saving my soul. If you don't help me
do it, then I'll see that as your big A-OK stamp of approval on my eternal
damnation and if you do that, I will hurt you Scotty, because if I'm going
to hell then I'm damn sure going to have some company. But you won't let
it come to that, will you Scott? You're going to get on that phone and
call up Matt Johnson and say, "I was wrong, Uncle Matt. Take me back. I
will put on the pink Scotty Flamingo tights, I will be your corporate example,
I will be your corporate cWo champion, I will fall in line and I will play
ball." Imagine, Scott Levy, imagine the feeling when Matt Johnson says
back to you, "Welcome home Scotty, welcome home." Bang, Bang." With that,
Cactus Jack sent the Cult out of the ring and Raven came out. Cactus went
to hug Raven, who punched him in the face. Raven backed Cactus in the corner
and whaled away on him with both fists, displaying more emotion than we
have ever seen out of him. Raven pounded on Folly's face until Cactus finally
retaliated with a low blow and a double-arm ddt. Cactus then got the singapore
cane from Justin Credible and whacked Raven across the back with it numerous
times and overtime he hit him, Cactus screamed, "Why are you making this
so hard Scotty?" Cactus then hit Raven in the forehead and drew blood.
Cactus then called for the Cult to set up a table at ringside, which they
did, and Cactus placed Raven on the table. Jack then climbed to the top
turnbuckle and dropped an elbow on Raven, breaking the table and driving
both men to the concrete. The Cult rolled both men back in and Cactus draped
his arm over Raven for a two count. Jack went for another piledriver, but
Raven backdropped him and evenflowed him. Raven covered Cactus, but Matt
Johnson ran down and pulled the referee out of the ring. Raven went over
to grab Johnson and this gave Jack the opportunity to crotch Raven with
the cane and slap on the mandible claw for the win. After the match, Johnson
took the mic. "Mick, I understand your pain, and I'm going to give you
another opportunity to get back in my good graces. All you have to do is
beat Raven again at Summer Massacre and I'll let you and your friends in
the cWo. And to show my thanks, I'm going to make it an explosion, thumbtack,
barbed-wire board deathwatch, just like you did in Japan. Think of it Mick,
your very own cWo t-shirt, a real one, not that airbrushed one you have
on now, even though that is a good likeness of me on the back." With that,
Cactus embraced Johnson, who hid his disgust with a devious smile. winner-Cactus
Jack
T.V. Title
vs. 
vs. 
Rob Van Dam
T.V. Champ-Shawn Michaels
The Rock
This match started off quickly as Van Dam and Michaels traded amateur
moves on the mat. Since that stuff is pretty boring, the Rock went outside
and grabbed steel chair and brained both RVD and the champ. Rock whipped
Van Dam into the ropes and dropped him with a spine-buster. He threw off
his elbow pad and sprung off the ropes for the people's elbow, but HBK
nailed him in the face with a perfect dropkick. Michaels went to the top
and dropped an elbow right into Rocky's heart and got a 2 count before
RVD broke it up with a senton splash. Van Dam frankensteinered the Rock
to the outside, but as he turned around he was hit right in the face with
sweet chin music by HBK and pinned. As HBK celebrated, Jeff Jarrett entered
the ring and whomped him in the head with a guitar and grabbed a mic. "That's
for you and your damn Clique holding me back in the WWF and trying to make
me into a country singer. How'd you like that tune I just played on your
skull? Now choke on that slapnuts." winner-Shawn Michaels
vs. 
Triple H
Ric Flair
Both men approached each other cautiously at the outset and Flair
gained the advantage by poking Triple H in the eye. Flair backed Helmsley
into a corner and put some welts on his chest with his trademark chops.
Flair set Triple H up for a super-plex, but Helmsley blocked it and pushed
Flair to the mat. HHH hit a legdrop from the top for a two count. He threw
Flair into the corner and caught him coming out with a high knee to the
face. The Game press slammed Flair and went for a cover, but the Nature
Boy got his foot on the ropes. Helmsley went to the top again and was crotched
on the top and superplex off. Flair had Triple H covered for the win, but
the referee was arguing with Shane Douglas on the ring apron. Flair went
over and nailed the Franchise, but when he turned around, Helmsley booted
him in the gut and pedigreed him for the win. After the match, Douglas
got on the mic and challenged Flair to end their long running feud at Summer
Massacre. winner-Triple H
Non-Title
vs. 
HWF Champion-Steve Austin
Kane with Matt Johnson
Austin came to the ring without his HWF title belt as it had been
stolen by Chris Jericho earlier in the evening. He started this match off
by pulling up the top-rope and crotching Kane as he tried to step over
the top-rope to enter the ring. Austin whipped The Big Red Machine into
the ropes, ducked a clothesline, and hit his Thesz Press and to borrow
a term from J.R., deliver some fists and fire. He then came off the ropes
and drove the F'You elbow right into Kane's heart for a two-count. He went
to the top rope, but Matt Johnson held his foot, which allowed Kane to
grab Austin by the neck and chokeslam him off the top. Kane then spiked
Austin with the tombstone, but Johnson told him to pick the Rattlesnake
up and deliver more punishment. Johnson jumped up on the apron to distract
the referee. As this was going on, Goldberg hit the ring and went to spear
Austin, who moved and shoved Kane into the spear. Austin lowblowed Goldberg
and hit a stunner on Kane for the win. After the match, Johnson berated
Goldberg and Kane and was heard yelling, "You guys have one more chance
to make this up and you better not blow it, or you're done!" winner-Steve
Austin
U.S. Title
vs. Mystery Opponent
U.S. Champ-Sabu
Johnson came out with the U.S. champ and took the mic to introduce
the mystery opponent. "First of all, let me introduce the most homicidal,
suicidal, genocidal athlete on the planet, the U.S. champion, Sabu. Now
let me introduce his opponent. He is a former triple crown winner in ECW.
He holds victories over the likes of the Sandman, Justin Credible, 911,
and yes, even Stone Cold Steve Austin. Who is this man you ask? Well, hit
his music!" As Johnson said this, Beck's song, "Loser", started blaring
over the p.a. system. "Now let me introduce to you, weighing in at 195
pounds, from Buffalo, New York, get on your feet for Mikey Whipwreck!"
Whipwreck came through the curtain and took one look at Sabu pacing like
a caged tiger, looked at the camera and said, "I'm gonna get killed. I
gotta get out of here!" He turned to run, but cWo member, the Warlord picked
him up on his shoulders and carried him to the ring. Sabu immediately ambushed
Whipwreck. He got a chair from Johnson, whipped Mikey into the corner and
nailed his Air Sabu leap. Sabu placed a crumpled Whipwreck onto a ringside
table and leg-dropped him through it. Sabu rolled a prone Mikey into the
ring and climbed to the top. Johnson tossed the U.S. champ a chair which
he used to Arabian Facebuster Whipwreck with for the pin. After the match,
Johnson and Sabu were putting the boots to Whipwreck, when Stone Cold came
through the crowd with a steel chair. He nailed Johnson and the Warlord
with it and used a Stone Cold stunner on Sabu. Austin picked up the U.S.
title and gave it to a recovering Whipwreck. Mikey took one look at it
and said, "No way, if Sabu sees me with that he's gonna kill me." Austin
grabbed Mikey by his shirt and told him, "Son, you damn well better take
that belt or I will shove the damn thing so far up your ass, you'll think
you had a prostate exam with a beach umbrella." Mikey weighed his options
which were either a possible beating from the cWo, who were coming from
the locker room to get him, if he took the belt or a sure-fire beating
from Stone Cold and about 20 pounds of metal up his butt if he didn't take
the belt. Whipwreck reluctantly took the belt and he and Austin exited
through the crowd to get away from the cWo. winner-Sabu
