Thunder comes on the air with a shot of the parking garage. We see William Regal getting out of car. Suddenly a car flying into the spot next to him nearly hitting him.
Regal: Why you miserable little toe rag. Where in the bloody hell did you learn to drive?
From the car out comes Cyrus.
Cyrus: Are you talking to me? Listen Regal I would watch your mouth if I were you.
Regal walks around the car and grabs Cyrus.
Regal: Now listen here. You might be able to push around other guys but you can't me.
Regal then shoves Cyrus down and walks into the building. Cyrus gets a big smile on his face as we go to the ring where Rick Rude and Scott Norton are facing the Dudley's.
Norton and Rude picked up a huge win over The Dudley's with help from Ray Traylor. The Hardcore Champion came out when Spike tried to interfere on his half brothers behalf. Traylor hit Spike in the head with his nightstick. He then hit both Buh Buh and D-Von setting up the Double Powerbomb and the win for Norton and Rude.

We then go to the back were Cyrus is in his office.
Cyrus: Johnny, come here. I have a job for you. Go and get me Disqo. I have a special job for him.
JTB: No problem, and if he doesn't come I will break his thumbs and drag him here.
Cyrus: What ever Johnny, just bring him.
After the break we see Kanyon in the rafters while Dan Severn waits for Balls. In a hardcore match up Balls was able to defeat the Beast. It was a short match as Balls him the Nutcracker Suite for the win.

In the back we see Spike talking to Cyrus.
Spike: I want Traylor in the ring tonight.
Cyrus: You think you can bring that title back to ECW?
Spike: I promise it.
Cyrus: You got it, get ready.
As Spike leaves Disqo enters.
Disqo: What in the hell do you want?
Cyrus: Disqo, I was impressed with your match on Nitro against Lance. So tonight I am going to give you a shot at William Regal's TV title.
Disqo: What is the catch?
Cyrus: No catch Disqo, just go out there and do your best kiddo.
Disqo leaves and we see Rhino step out of the shadows.
Cyrus: You know what to do.
Rhino shakes his head yes and we go to break.
We have a new Hardcore champion as Spike walked out with the title. This match was short as Buh Buh and D-Von attack Traylor and gave him 3D. This allowed Spike to hit the Acid Drop and walk out the champ.

We have a new TV Champion as Disqo defeated Regal. Regal and Disqo had a good match. Disqo went for the Last Dance but Regal shoved him off and the official Charles Robinson went down. This brought out Rhino. Regal hit the Disqo with the Cobra Neckbreaker. He turn around right into the Gore from Rhino. Disqo didn't see any of this. Disqo and Charles both got up about the same time. Disqo pulled Regal to his feet and hit the Last Dance. Three seconds later and we have a new TV Champ. Cyrus then came to the ring.

Cyrus: Now who is the miserable little toe rag Regal? HUH!? Don't you EVER put your hands on me again.
Styles: We have a new TV Champion everyone.
Tenay: Joey, I know you an employee of ECW but that is wrong.
Styles: I agree with you. That is one of the most respected titles in wrestling and for the title to change hands like that is wrong.
Tenay: Tonight we still have the world title on the line. Rhino will take on 'The Star' Scotty Taylor tonight.
Styles: Also tonight Jeff Jarrett takes on Owen Hart and in six man tag team action it will be Scott Steiner, Chris Candido and Shane Douglas taking on the Misfit Animals and Bill DeMott.
In the back we see Scott Hall getting a cup of coffee. Big Vito walks up and gets a bottle of water.
Vito: If it isn't Last Call Hall.
Hall: Did you say something to me?
Vito: Oh no, just talking out loud. See you are having a cup of coffee, is it Irish Coffee?
Hall: You think you are funny?
Vito: Yeah I do. But if you have a problem with me why don't you settle it in that ring. I always did think I looked good in gold.
Hall: You got it.
Steiner and the tag champs picked up the win in this fast paced match. Just when it seemed like Lash was about to hit Steiner with the Whiplash 2001 there was a blind tag. Candido quickly hit the German Suplex for the win.

Hart: Enough is enough and its time for a change. Candido, Douglas, next week on this show you bring your damn titles and I will bring a partner and we are going to take those titles.
Douglas: Who are you going to get? No one is going to team with you. You turned your back on WCW and ECW turned our backs on you. You get a partner and prepare to get your asses FRANCHISED!!
After the break the US Champion took on Vito. This match was hard hitting with Vito holding his own. At one point Vito got a near fall but Hall got to the ropes. Vito went to the top for what would have been a moonsault but Hall crotched him. Hall then hit the Outsiders Edge for the win.

Lance Storm lost again, this time to the deranged Kanyon. During this match once again Chris Candido made an appearance. Before Chris came out Tammy made here way to the ring holding a black rose. Candido then came out and questioned Tammy. He then grabbed a chair and tried to hit Kanyon, but hit Lance instead. This allowed Kanyon to hit the Flatliner for the win. Candido tried to get into the ring but Kanyon got away by raising into the rafters. Candido then attacked Storm and gave him a sitout piledriver before grabbing Tammy and dragging her to the back. All the way back we see Tammy looking into the rafters.

'The Star' had a great showing against the World champ. He did make several mistakes however. The first being that he tried to match Rhino power for power. The second being that he brought Victoria to the ring. During the match 'The Star' did what he has been, basically doing the moves of his opponent. Taylor went for the Gore and just bounced off and Rhino then showed him how to do it. Victoria then came in to check on 'The Star' only to take a Gore. Rhino then locked him into the Rhino Recliner for the win.
Rhino made Scotty Taylor submit to the Rhino
Recliner in 0:11:17.

After the match Rhino was about to lock the Rhino Recliner on Victoria when William Regal made the save. We go off the air with Regal checking on Victoria.
