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 week, Steve Austin stole the U.S. belt in retaliation
for Chris Jericho stealing his World Title belt. Austin then gave the U.S.
strap to Mikey Whipwreck. This has prompted Matt Johnson to sign a tag-team
main event featuring Austin and Whipwreck versus Triple H and Chris Jericho.
Also, Raven will battle the Sandman and Kevin Nash will clash with Scott
Steiner. Kane will take on the Rock in a match where if he loses, then
he, Goldberg and the Undertaker are all out of the HWF. Ric Flair will
fight Sid and Shawn Michaels will answer the challenge of Mr. Stroke himself,
Jeff Jarrett.

Interview with Matt Johnson and the cWo
The cWo came out, but without Matt Johnson. The members stood in the
ring and wondered where the C'ville Icon was, but their questions were
answered when Johnson came out with Cactus Jack and the rest of the Cult
members in tow. Johnson was also wheeling in a huge birthday cake. Johnson
got inside the ring and grabbed a mic. "First of all, I would like for
everyone to give it up for the newest pledges of the cWo, Cactus Jack and
the Cult. You see the cWo is like one big fraternity, but in the cWo, there
are no embarrassing rituals to perform, no animals to, well you know what
frats do to animals and no silly books to memorize. But the cWo does believe
in hazing and tonight, the Sandman will be hazed when he takes on Raven.
Speaking of that dirty hippy, right now, I would like to ask all of the
fans out there to stand up and sing happy birthday to him." The cWo members
all looked puzzled and Rob Van Dam finally asked Johnson, "Boss, why are
we singing happy birthday to Raven? His birthday isn't until September
8th, so his last birthday was last year." To which Johnson replied, "Very
insightful, Rob. I'm surprised you remembered that with all of the bong
resin currently residing in your brain. You see, the reason we're celebrating
Raven's birthday tonight is that Raven's last birthday literally was Raven's
last birthday because he won't have anymore birthdays after first getting
mauled by the King of the Japanese Deathmatch himself, Cactus Jack and
then having to climb into a 15 foot high, steel cage with Big Johnson Cool.
Raven it goes like this, you signed your own death warrant the minute you
turned down my offer to join the cWo before this whole thing started. So
you better get in all of the partying you can in the next week or so, because
at Summer Massacre, it won't be 'Quote the Raven, Nevermore', it's going
to be 'Quote the Raven, Never Again!' "
vs.
Kevin Nash with Scott Hall
Scott Steiner with Gusberg Nash came out with a mic in his hand and Hall by his side. "Hey
Steiner, I think the question that is on the minds of fans everywhere is,
whaddya bench Scotty, whaddya bench? I could have a body like Big Poppa
Lump, but I enjoy too many things in life and one of them comes in a six
pack. I also don't enjoy sticking needles in my ass and watching my testicles
shrivel to the size of marbles. Big Sexy Kevin Nash is content to be 6'10,
356 and just too sweeeet." Gusberg came out in the middle of the aisle,
but without Poppa Pump. Gusberg got on the apron and as the Outsiders went
over to get him, Steiner emerged from the crowd and steinerlined them both
with his massive arms. Steiner tossed Hall from the ring and went to work
on Nash's oft-injured knees by stomping on them and placing him in a figure-four
leglock. Nash eventually made it to the ropes, but Steiner unmercifully
battered Big Sexy's knees. The Big Bad Booty Daddy tripped up Nash and
straddled his legs around the ring post. Steiner rammed Nash's knee into
the post repeatedly. He tried to ram Big Kev's knee into the post again,
but Nash pushed Steiner backwards into the guardrail. Nash hobbled out
to ringside and rammed Steiner's head into the guardrail, opening him up.
Big Sexy tossed him back into the ring and placed Steiner's neck across
the second rope. Nash got a running, well hobbling, start from the other
side of the ring and came crashing down on Poppa Pump's injured back. On
the outside, Hall threw powder into Gusberg's eyes. Nash pulled down the
straps of his tanktop and signaled for the Jacknife powerbomb. Hall threw
a table into the ring which Nash set up. Nash bent down and lifted Steiner
high into the air, but before he could bring Steiner down, his injured
leg gave way. This gave Steiner, who was still in position for the powerbomb,
the opportunity to frankensteiner Nash through the table and pin him for
the victory. With Steiner's victory and Nash's injury The Pump Masters
have the psychological and physical edge going into next week's showdown.
winner-Scott Steiner Shawn Michaels was then shown backstage in the Outsiders 2000 locker
room. HBK then gave an answer to the challenge of Jeff Jarrett from last
week. "So Jeff Jarrett, or should I say Double J, has come to the HWF looking
for the Heartbreak Kid. Well, Jeff you found me and you know what they
say, be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it and at
Summer Massacre, you are gonna get it. I'll bring the T.V. belt and you
bring your guitar, but this time it won't be one of your hick country tunes
that will be played. It's gonna be some sweet chin music played by the
Icon, the Main Event and the Showstoppa himself, Shawn Michaels. Remember
that stupid song Vince made you sing? With My Baby Tonight, I think was
the name of it. Well, you can be with your baby all you want, but after
Summer Massacre, I'm gonna be with my belt and yo momma because the Heartbreak
Kid can stay up all night long." As Michaels flexed for the cameras, Jeff
Jarrett emerged from the Outsiders 2000 shower and kabonged him with a
guitar. "The only thing that's going to be up all night is going to be
the doctors taking care of your ass in intensive care after Summer Massacre.
Now choke on that slapnuts."
vs.
Raven
The Sandman with the Cult The Sandman came out first with Cactus Jack and the Cult. Cactus
took the mic. "All this week, people have been asking me, 'Why Cactus,
why?'. You see Scotty, you come out here and you talk about all of the
pain you've been through in your life, but you don't have the slightest
idea about the weight of the crosses that powerful, righteous men such
as myself and Mr. Johnson have to bear. We are trying to save your soul,
Scotty, but you're making it so damn hard. We are trying to pull your body
off of the cross that is the expectations of these hardcore mutant fans,
but you insist on wearing a wreathed crown of barbed wire. That's why a
show of force was needed last week and why one is needed this week. To
show you that the answers lie not in mutilating your body for the enjoyment
of these uncaring fans who wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire. No,
the answers lie in the loving arms of the greatest organization headed
by the most brilliant man on earth. Why don't you wrap yourself in those
arms, Scotty? Now, they tell me that you and I are supposed to have a death
match next week, but I'm counting on your knowledge and just a little bit
of common sense for you to do the right thing and make that phone call
to Matt Johnson. Tell him you were wrong and that you're ready to trade
in that Nevermore t-shirt for a pair of pink wrestling tights and a cWo
t-shirt. Pick up the phone, make the call and grant me serenity and inner
peace of knowing that I've saved one person from living a lie, Scott Levy.
Grant it!" As the Cult stood in the ring and faced the entrance ramp, Raven
came through the crowd with a singapore cane of his own. He nailed Cactus
Jack with it, but this allowed the Sandman to hit Raven with his cane.
Sandman slammed Raven and came off the top-rope with a legdrop. He called
for a chair and Al Snow threw him one. The Sandman had too many beers before
the match and he fell on his face trying to catch the chair. Raven grabbed
it and whomped the Sandman in the head with it. Raven tossed the Sandman
into the corner and got a running start with the chair in hand, but the
Sandman kicked the chair back into Raven's face, busting him open. Sandman
russian-legsweeped his former friend onto the chair for a two-count. Sandman
grabbed a beer from out of his pants pocket, but instead of drinking it,
he hit Raven in the head with the can. He motioned for Justin Credible
to hit Raven with the cane while he held him, but Raven ducked and the
cane shot hit the Sandman. Raven dropkicked Credible off the apron and
evenflowed the Sandman for the win. After the match, Cactus Jack spiked
Raven with the double-arm ddt and the Cult handcuffed their former leader
to the ring ropes. Cactus Jack pulled out some barbed wire and made a crown
of barbed-wire around Raven's head. Then in a scene reminiscent of the
Chairshot Heard Round the World, Cactus Jack took the Singapore Cane and
viciously pounded Raven in the skull with it. The Cult then left the ring
and Cactus looked into the camera with a deranged look in his eye and shouted,
"Quote the Raven, 'Never Again'. Bang, Bang!" winner-Raven
vs.
Kane
The Rock Rocky came out first and took the mic, but before he could say anything,
Kane rocked him with a clothesline. I guess Kane is as sick and damn tired
as everyone else of the Rock saying the same damn thing every week. Kane
gorilla-pressed the Rock and tossed him to the cold concrete floor. As
the Rock got up, Kane dove over the top-rope and nailed him with a flying
plancha. The Big Red Machine set up a table and tried to tombstone the
People's Champion through it, but the Rock lowblowed him and Rock Bottomed
him through the table. The camera's then went to the back and we saw that
the locker-room of Undertaker, Kane, and Goldberg was blocked by a truck.
Kane kicked out of Rock's pinning attempt. He ducked a Rock clothesline
and chokeslammed the People's Champion. Kane motioned for help from the
back, but no one came. Kane tombstoned the Rock, but Rocky's tag-team partner,
DDP, pulled the referee out of the ring. DDP tossed the Rock a pair of
brass knuckles which he used to knock out the Big Red Machine for the win.
Matt Johnson was shown backstage looking at the moniters and he was irate.
He yelled, "That's it, they're done!" But then he calmed down and got an
evil glint in his eye. What does he have in store for the former L.O.D.
members? winner-The Rock
vs.
Sid
Ric Flair with Chyna Sid came out with a mic and taunted Flair, who had demanded a match
with Shane Douglas after he cost Flair a shot at the HWF title. "Flair,
you come out here and run your mouth and claim to be the man and the master.
Well, I am the master and the ruler of the world, and it's only logical
that you can't be the master of the master. So get your old, wrinkly butt
out here and I will powerbomb you straight to hell." Flair came out with
the 9th Wonder of the World and as she distracted Sid, Flair chop blocked
the big man's knees. Flair stomped Sid's knees and yelled out, "Now we're
going to school!" The Nature Boy threw Sid into a corner and followed up
with his trademark chops that Sid, like everybody nowadays, no sold. Sid
grabbed Flair and cobra-clutch slammed him to the mat. Sid called for the
powerbomb, but Chyna got on the top-rope and dove at Sid. Sid caught her
and chokeslammed her to the mat. Flair got up and lowblowed Sid. The Dirtiest
Player in the Game hooked Sid's tights for the win. After the match, Shane
Douglas came out and hit Flair with a chain, busting him open. Sid set
Flair up for the powerbomb, but the rest of the Horsemen ran them off.
winner-Ric Flair
vs. Steve Austin and Mikey Whipwreck
Triple H and Chris Jericho with the Big Red Regulator
Austin and Mikey did an interview in the back before the match. Austin
spoke to Mikey, who still had the U.S. belt that Austin stole from Sabu
and gave to him, "Now say it real tough like a told you. Just repeat to
yourself, "I'm a tough S.O.B., I'm a tough S.O.B." Mikey took the mic and
started yelling, "Let me tell you something Sabu, when I get your ass in
the ring at Summer Massacre with that U.S. strap and that ladder in the
ring..." Mikey faltered for a second and then whaled, "Who am I kidding,
Sabu's gonna kill me. There's going to be ladders and tables and Sabu's
gonna make me bleed, can't I just give the belt back to him, Steve?" Austin
snarled at Whipwreck, "You ever see that movie, The Program, son? Well,
it's like the coach made the running back hold a football all over campus,
you're going to hold that damned belt until Summer Massacre and if I see
you without that belt from this time to then, you're going to wish that
you're mother miscarried your sorry ass. As far as Triple H goes, I never
liked that sumbitch at all and I don't like him now. And you Chris Jericho,
you come out here spouting off all of that "old school" crap, well, I'm
old school. I wear black trunks and black boots like the old-timers.
The only difference between me and them is that I'm going to stick my black
boot straight up your whining ass and that's the bottom line because Stone
Cold said so." Austin and Whipwreck then made their way to the ring to
face Triple H and Jericho. Austin went after Jericho, who was wearing Stone
Cold's HWF belt, and chased him around the ring. As Austin was chasing
Jericho, The Big Red Regulator popped up from his hiding place underneath
the ring and hit Austin with a chair. Triple H cornered Whipwreck and beat
him down in the corner. Helsmley took the U.S. title from around Mikey's
waist and hit him in the head with it, while on the outside, Neil "The
Old School Avenger" Little, took the HWF World Title belt and high-tailed
it back to the locker room. Jericho took over on the Rattlesnake on the
outside by ramming his head on the steel guardrail and frankensteinering
him to the concrete floor. Y2J went for another frankensteiner, but was
powerbombed through a ringside table. Back in the ring, Triple H was beating
a cowering Whipwreck unmercifully in the corner. The Rattlesnake rolled
back into the ring and started putting the boots to The Game. As this was
going on, Sabu suddenly emerged from the crowd and he went straight after
Whipwreck to get his U.S. title belt back. Sabu went for his Air Sabu leap
in an attempt crush Whipwreck in the corner, but Mikey ducked out of the
ring, grabbed the HWF U.S. belt and ran at top speed back to the dressing
room with Sabu in pursuit. Austin was left alone with the Game and Y2J.
Austin booted Triple H in the gut and went for the stunner, but Triple
H pushed him and Jericho came off the top-rope and caught Austin in the
face with a spin-wheel kick. Hemsley picked up Austin and delivered the
Pedigree. As he gloated, Jericho double-powerbombed the Rattlesnake and
went for the pin. Helmsley turned around and threw Y2J off of Austin and
shouted, "I'm gonna pin that bastard myself" and covered Austin. Y2J pulled
Triple H off and went for the cover himself. Helmsley grabbed a steel chair
and broke up Jericho's pin attempt with a shot to the back. Helmsley and
Jericho then started brawling. Triple H kicked Jericho in the gut and went
for the pedigree, but Y2J pulled Helmsley's feet from underneath him and
slingshotted him right into a Stone Cold Stunner from Austin, who had gotten
up while Jericho and Helsmley fought. Austin tossed Jericho over the top-rope
and pinned Helmsley for the win. After the match, the cWo came down and
Matt Johnson got into the Game's face. The Outsiders 2000 then came
out and words were exchanged between the two factions. Finally, Johnson
ordered the cWo out of the ring and told Triple H, "You better get with
the game plan, Game Boy, or next time I won't hold the cWo back. Don't
forget who signs the damn paychecks around here. This ain't Vince McMahon."
The show then went off the air with Triple H giving the cWo the finger
and saying, "It's my time." winners-Steve Austin and Mikey Whipwreck Matches for the last Monday Night Manliness of the half-year, HWF
