WWF-Weekly_Summary-Mar_11-17

Raw, just 6 days from Wrestlemania, started with a Six Man Tag Match betweeen RVD & the Hardys vs. William Regal and the Dudley Boyz. Jeff got a 3D, but Matt saved him by hitting a Twist of Fate on D-Von. RVD got tagged in and defeated his opponent at Wrestlemania, William Regal, with a Five Star Frog Splash.
Earlier in the day, an emergency board meeting was taken place of the WWF Board of Directors on whether to give Vince McMahon full control of the company because Flair's conduct was inappropriate as a co-owner.
Kurt Angle came out and started whining about Kane costing him the Undisputed Title and laughing as he remembered how he took out Kane last week on Smackdown. Kurt also said that the fans were also responsible for him losing because they were stupid and chanted "You Suck!" everytime Angle's music came on. Booker T came out, and looked like he was defending the fans, but said that they were beyond stupid. Booker was mad about not having an opponent for Wrestlemania and losing the shampoo commercial to Edge. Speaking of that Canadian, Edge came out and showed a tape of Booker T doing very badly on "The Weakest Link", but Booker reminded Edge that he had gotten voted off first. Kurt, who called himself the Big Red White and Blue Machine and was trying to be cool, did the first ever "Dorkarooni." Booker accepted Edge's challenge for a match at Wrestlemania, and Edge accepted a tag team match with a partner against the Bookerman and Kurt.
Stephanie McMahon was saying how much she disliked HHH's dog Lucy, but refused to give her to the Game because a court order said that she would have Lucy until their divorce was settled.
Rikishi went up against Test and dominated the taller man, but his Stink Face was prevented by Mr. Perfect distracting Rikishi long enough for Test to recover and plaster Rikishi with a Big Kick.
Chris Jericho had to take Lucy for a walk when she went to the bathroom in Jericho's dressing room. Jericho tied her to the car and left her outside in Detroit at night.
DDP and Christian both had goofy grins on and scared a technician when the Tag Champs Billy and Chuck approached and started mocking them and said Christian was a loser. Christian decided to show Billy that he wasn't a loser by challenging him to a match for later on Raw.
Vince pointed out to the Board of Directors that Ric Flair had punched a fan last week on Smackdown.
Goldust had gold garbage cans and lids for his Hardcore Title Match against Al Snow. Al got a Fire Extinguisher and hit the Snow Plow to end the match and become the Hardcore Champion.
Chris Jericho had to go get some air freshner, so he jumped in the limo and they started off, but the driver stopped when he realized he had run over something that had sounded like a whimper. Jericho left without even checking on poor Lucy. HHH ran outside and talked to Lucy while the driver got help.
Kurt Angle and Booker T were dismayed when they learned that Edge's partner was none other than the Big Show. Booker T and Kurt tried to counter Big Show's Double Chokeslam, but the Big Show countered that with a Double Suplex by himself. Big Show got a Scissors Kick from Booker, who was hit with a Spear by Edge. Kurt hit an Olympic Slam on the Big Show and made the Big Show tap to the Ankle Lock.
Stephanie was terrified of what HHH was going to do her, but Jericho said he had a plan.
Billy faced off with Christian and Billy got off to a great start. Christian rolled out of the ring and started to have a temper tantrum. Though calmed down by DDP, Christian walked into Superkick from Chuck, but DDP hit a Diamond Cutter on Billy and Christian covered him to win the match! Christian and DDP started to celebrate, but Christian viciously took out DDP with a Diving Reverse DDT and beat on him for a little bit before hitting the Unprettier and saying that he was a winner and didn't need Page's help.
Vince focused on the fact that Flair had hit a fan, and not a superstar. Vince said that Flair only cared about himself and not the company, but the decision of full confidence was about the company.
Lita and Trish Stratus teamed up to face Jazz and Stacy Kiebler. Trish inadvertently took out Lita, and Jazz covered Lita for the win.
Stephanie came out to the ring and begged for HHH not to blame her and that she really cared about Lucy. HHH came down and chased her around the ring and was going to hit a Pedigree when the Undisputed Champ came out and hit his left leg (near his repaired quad) with a sledgehammer. HHH had to be helped up the ramp and to the hospital.
Vince waited with anticipation as the Board of Directors reconvened after reaching a decision. Linda McMahon asked Ric Flair if he was going to have a match at Wrestlemania against the Undertaker. When Flair responded yes, Vince started celebrating, but Linda warned him that this vote of full confidence could be reviewed after Wrestlemania. Vince thanked the Board of Directors for doing the right thing for the company, and Flair (his mind most likely on the Undertaker) said thank you for understanding the pressure he was under with his family being attacked.
Stone Cold and the Rock were given a handicap match against the nWo, and Scott Hall started against the Rock. Kevin Nash entered the ring for the first time since rejoining the WWF and went to work on the Rock. Hogan was tagged in and worked on the Rock, but Stone Cold came in and started cleaning house, but the numbers were too much and he got isolated. The Rock got a tag, but got taken out by Nash and took a Big Boot and a Hogan Leg Drop from Hollywood and was pinned. Scott Hall also gave Austin a Stunner as Raw went off the air.

March 14, 2002

Smackdown started with Kurt Angle battling Rob Van Dam just 3 days before Wrestlemania. Van Dam was in control until Angle hit a huge German Suplex that folded RVD up like an accordian, but he only got a 2 count. Van Dam caught Angle with a Superkick, but was distracted by William Regal and got a Belly to Belly Suplex from the Top Rope by Kurt Angle. Angle locked in the Ankle Lock and RVD had no choice but to tap out. William Regal started stomping RVD, but Kurt's departure was stopped by the appearance of Kane. Kurt ran back in the ring, but escaped while Kane chokeslammed Regal to Hell.
Ric Flair walked into Vince McMahon's office at McMahon's request because he wanted Flair to see who had total control of the company. Vince "generously" offered Flair the night off, and Flair eventually accepted because he didn't want to embarass the Board of Directors like he had before.
Jeff Hardy, Buh Buh Ray Dudley, Bradshaw, and Billy faced off in a preview of the Four Corners Tag Match at Wrestlemania for the Tag Titles. Buh Buh broke up several pin falls, and Jeff Hardy and Bradshaw worked together to hit the WAZZUP! headbutt on Billy. Jeff went for a Swanton, but Chuck saved Billy. Billy got back in the ring and hit a Sleeper Drop and put his foots on the rope to beat Jeff Hardy. The other members of the tag teams started brawling with each other, and Lita and Stacy battled with each other while Chuck and Billy waved goodbye with their tag titles.
Christian told Lillian Garcia that he had turned on DDP because he didn't need DDP anymore, plus it had been DDP to beat Christian for his beloved European Title. DDP walked up and challenged Christian to a match at Wrestlemania for the European Title, which Christian accepted, and said that it was a good thing.
Trish and Lita got in a brawl in the back; these two will challenge Jazz for the Women's Title at Wrestlemania.
Vince McMahon got off the phone to talk to another Flair and offered Ric's son David a chance to compete tonight on Smackdown against the Undertaker. Flair was hesistant, but eventually accepted. Moments later, the Undertaker came in and thanked Vince for giving him the match.
Big Show challenge Al Snow for the Hardcore Title, but got taken out with a bowling ball below the belt and a DDT, but Big Show recovered and hit a Chokeslam when Goldust attacked him and tried to regain the Hardcore Title. Maven ran down and took out Goldust and then Big Show with a dropkick, and then covered Al Snow to become the Hardcore Champion.
Hollywood Hogan came out and repeatedly showed the footage from Raw of him defeating the Rock. He listed people like Roddy Roddy Piper and Andre the Giant who had tried to end Hulkamania, but all of them failed, just like the Rock would on Sunday at Wrestlemania. The Rock came out and said that Hulkamania was a fantasy world where all of Hogan's Hulka friends told him how great he was, but this Sunday at Wrestlemania would be reality. Hogan responded by pulling off his shirt and saying "What are you gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild over you?!" The Rock walked down and stood face to face with Hogan and told him that he should say his prayers because the Rock was going to end Hogan's legacy, and Hogan retreated from the ring.
Booker T and Test teamed up to face Edge and Tajiri. Edge took out Test, but a Scissors Kick by the Bookerman ended the match.
Stone Cold Steve Austin that he wasn't nervous about Wrestlemania; he was ticked off. While he was describing the Stunner he was going to give Scott Hall, that nWo member made his way to the ring. He told Stone Cold to prove that the Rattlesnake really is the toughest SOB in the WWF. Scott Hall was waiting in the ring and a ref came out, and Kevin Nash almost hit the ref with a chair. Stone Cold came from behind Hall and a hit a Stunner before Nash could get down to the ring.
Both Chris Jericho and Stephanie were waiting for HHH's announcement, gleefully thinking that he was either going to retire or pull out of the Wrestlemania match after Jericho's savage attack on his knees.
David Flair was like a sacrificial lamb for the Undertaker, but was saved by Ric Flair coming down to save his son. Ric got taken out, but prevented the Undertaker from giving David the Last Ride by hitting him with a steel chair.
HHH walked to the ring with a slight limp and said he had an unfortunate announcement: unfortunate for Chris Jericho that is. HHH said he was going to be at Wrestlemania, and then his opponent Chris Jericho came out with Stephanie McMahon. Stephanie said that she had talked to the surgeon that had repaired HHH's quadricep, and the doctor had said that HHH's quad was hanging on by wires. Steph told him that one wrong move at Wrestlemania would cost him his career and possibly the ability to walk. HHH responded by saying it didn't matter if it was his last step or his last breath, he was going to Wrestlemania to kick Chris Jericho's a** for the Undisputed Title because he is the Game. Jericho rushed the ring, but the Game took him out of the ring with a clothesline but pulled up and really started hobbling. He still was in control and tossed Jericho into the steel steps shoulder first and started to take apart the announce table. Stephanie came from behind and kicked him twice in the left leg. HHH prepared to Pedigree her on the table, but Jericho recovered and hit the Game with one of his own Undisputed Titles. HHH held his knee in pain until Jericho locked in the Walls of Jericho while Stephanie held the title in his face and told him he would never, ever get the title from Jericho.
