Disclaimer: Don't own anything, so don't sue me or something. I'd love to own Mark for just one night, but since I don't..
Six days. Only six days remain 'til The Undertaker and Hogan face off in the squared circle. Six days until the Undertaker makes things right. Six days 'til he is crowned undisputed Champion.
I've got part of the line up for the PPV, plus a recap of tonight's "Raw" (Monday, May 13, 2002). I'll start with "Raw". Starting things off was a match between Brock Lesnar and the Hardy Boys. Paul Heyman interfered and earned himself a disqualification. He then made the announcement that he and Lesnar would team up to face the Hardys at "Judgment Day".
Ric Flair followed that up by making the announcement that there would be a title match between he and Hogan later that night. The match was no DQ, which Flair lost thanks to a Stone Cold Stunner.
Planet Stasiack had a very quick match with Eddie Guerrero. Rob Van Dam joined the wrestlers at ringside. After Guerrero hit Stasiack with his version of the frog splash, Van Dam jumped in the ring and showed Eddie why he deserves to be the Intercontinental Champion.
Terri Runnells and Molly Holly faced off and Molly scored the pin fall, though it was pretty much a fluke. Terri had her the whole match and the hurricanrana off the top was a nice touch by Miss Runnells. Steven Regal, who was a guest commentator, told Molly after the match that he admired the way she could get things done without "hiking up her skirt and showing her bosoms". He escorted her up the ramp after her victory.
I must admit to being somewhat disgusted with the whole Flair/Hogan match. It turned into the longest ten minutes of my entire life! I can't believe Hogan had the audacity to come out on a bike after the ridiculous stunt he pulled last week. It did end up coming back to haunt him later that night.
The Undertaker made his first appearance of the night after that match. Coach was trying to get some sort of reaction out of the Deadman after last week's events, but Taker just kept butting his head against the wall before subjecting Coach to a cold, lifeless stare down before stalking off.
On a lighter note, Trish Stratus became the Women's Champ in a mixed tag match. It was Trish and Bubba Dudley versus Jazz and Steven Richards. After Trish scored with "Stratusfaction", Bubba put Jazz through a table at Trish's direction.
X-Pac and The Big Show defeated Bradshaw in a handicap match. Was it a message to Stone Cold? You bet your ass it was. They demolished Bradshaw and left him in a heap in the middle of the ring. Stone Cold is in for a good fight next Sunday.
Hogan was interviewed after his match and decided he would stay and help Stone Cold in his match later on, but The Undertaker had different plans. He attacked Hogan and hog tied him to Hogan's own bike and proceeded to give him a free ride through the arena. I was guilty of laughing my ass off as I watched. It was good to see Hogan get what he deserved.
Stone Cold's match turned out to be a LumberJack match against the newest member of the New World Order. Turned out to be Booker T. I'm still scratching my head over that one. Austin was victorious in the end. "Raw" ended with him stumbling up the ramp.
Next order of business is the partial line up of matches for "Judgment Day". Kurt Angle and Edge are having a Hair vs. Hair match. I really liked what Edge said. He said something to the effect of, "After Sunday, your Olympic Hero will be Red, White, and Bald!" I can't imagine Edge/Adam Copeland no longer having that glorious mane of hair.
Eddie Guerrero will be putting his Intercontinental Title up against none other than RVD. That should be an interesting match. I find that I like RVD a little. He's flashy, cocky, and much too arrogant, but I can't help but pull for him from time to time. Hell, anybody's better than Guerrero!
As I said earlier, Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman will be facing the Hardys in a tag match. I'm not sure how I feel about this one. I don't particularly care about any of the participants, so it will probably not be seen by me. I'll just take an extended smoke break!
Interestingly enough, Triple H will face Chris Jericho in a Hell in the Cell contest. I should enjoy this one a lot. I don't care who wins, as long as it's not Jericho! I can't stand his whining, sniveling ass! Don't like Hunter either, but I hate Jericho more!
The most important match of the night will of course be MY Deadman facing Hulk Hogan (ugh!) in an Undisputed Title match. I bet you can't guess who I'm pulling for in this one. Realistically, Hogan doesn't have much of a chance. How many 50+ year old men do you know that can beat the shit out of a 40-year-old workhorse in prime condition? Not many! Of course, it's all about the script, but I have to give the edge to The Undertaker, not just because I love him dearly, but because it's not believable for Hogan to beat him. Though his leg drop is vicious! laughs sarcastically Doesn't anybody else think it's funny how his finishing move is nothing more than a sissy ass leg drop?! chuckles My grandma (who is 83 mind you) could kick outta that!
Anyway, enough of that. I'm sure it will be interesting either way, but I'm hoping the Darkness will once again reign supreme! Ok, ok. I'm hoping the Bad Ass will live up to his name and finally end this silly comeback of Hogan's. It's time the man retires (for good!).
Alright, I'm done ranting for the night. Send me your thoughts on what you think would happen Sunday. I look forward to reading what you have to say. ( Goodnight.
Long live the Deadman!
