WWF Smackdown! Preview

January 6, 2000

The new year kicked off with a bang this past Monday on Raw is War. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley were force to reinstate Mick Foley, or the entire roster would walk out on them, including The Rock. Later that night, Triple H defeated Big Show to win back the World Wrestling Federation Championship. What will go down just three days after such a huge night on Raw? What will go down as The McMahon-Helmsley Era is in possesion of the WWF Title? What will Big Show do now that he is no longer on top?

Also, Mankind will make his return to the ring as the Rock and Sock Connection reunites to take on the New Age Outlaws.

Don't miss WWF Smackdown!, Thursday at 8/7c only on UPN!

WWF Smackdown!

January 6, 2000(Taped 1/4/00)

Orlando Arena in Orlando, Florida

The Smackdown intro plays, and then we are switched to a shot of the arena where pyro blasts from the entrance area. The cameras pan around the Orlando crowd and then close-up on the commentators, Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler.

Michael Cole: Hello everyone, and welcome to Smackdown! We're here at the jam-packed Orlando Arena for 2000's first edition of Smackdown, but what a way we kicked off the new year this past Monday night on Raw!

Jerry Lawler: That's right Cole, it's a dawning of a new era here at the World Wrestling Federation, because Triple H is our new WWF Champion!

Michael Cole: But knowing Triple H, he couldn't get this done fairly, the ref's back was turn when he nailed a low blow on Big Show, and then hit the Pedigree and won the match. I've talked to Big Show earlier today, he is fuming, and I really would not want to be Triple H tonight. On another note also here to come tonight, the New Age Outlaws will square off against The Rock, and Mankind Mick Foley, yes Mick Foley he's back in the WWF thanks to the efforts of his good friend The Rock, and tonight we're going to see the Rock 'N Sock Reunion!

"My Time" hits over the PA, along with a chorus of boos and Triple H with his wife Stephanie, appear on stage, and head down to the ring. He begins to speak on the mic.

Before Triple H can speak, he is interrupted with "assh*le" chants.

Triple H: Who better to lead the World Wrestling Federation into the year 2000 than the McMahon-Helmsley Era?

The crowd boos.

Triple H: I am the new World Wrestling Federation Champion, if you people here like or not. You see the guys you people all love, The Rock, Mick Foley, even Stone Cold Steve Austin all walk down to this ring, but this past Monday night I've proven why I am better than all of them. Because right now, none of them can say that they are the WWF Champion, leading the WWF into the new millennium. But I can, and....

Big Show's music suddenly hits, to a loud pop. The former WWF Champion, the Big Show appears on the Smackdown stage in street clothes, with a mic in hand, and a pamphlet of some sort in the other.

Triple H: Wait a minute...what the hell do you want? I beat your ass Monday, do you really want to cause more trouble?

Big Show: I wouldn't talk about leading the WWF into the new millennium as such, so quickly there Hunter. In my hand right now I have a direct copy of my WWF contract that I signed almost a year ago when I first arrived here. Now in this contract, it reads that if I am to lose a singles title, I am allowed a rematch for that very title, any time, any place.

Triple H has a concerned look on his face as the crowd cheers.

Big Show: Now I have to say to myself, why wait? So I'm getting straight to the point here, I'm challenging you to a rematch right here tonight!

Triple H: Wait no, no you can't...

Big Show: This contract is signed right here by Vincent K. McMahon, and if you don't carry through with this I could go straight to Stamford, Connecticut and get you and your bitch wife's asses fired!

Triple H: Alright, then tonight here on Smackdown, you got your rematch. But let me tell you something Big Show, you enjoy your spotlight tonight, because after I beat you tonight, you're not going to ever want to be in the main event, again.

Big Show: We'll see about that...

Big Show is suddenly attacked from behind by other D-X members, Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, and X-Pac. Big Show shoves Billy Gunn down on the steel ramp, and then smashes Road Dogg and X-Pac's heads together. Triple H then runs up the ramp but Big Show wraps his hand around his throat. He picks him up......and chokeslams him onto the stage!!! Big Shows music hits as the screen cuts to commercial break.

Commercial Break

X-Pac vs. Rikishi

This was a short and choppy match, Rikishi hit the Bonzai Drop on X-Pac for the victory.

Winner: Rikishi

Triple H, Stephanie McMahon, Road Dogg, and Billy Gunn are in their D-Generation locker room backstage.

Triple H: Look, Road Dogg and Billy Gunn, I need you guys to do me a favor. I know that idiot Mankind is just waiting anxiously to get his hands on me, and I'm sure he has every intention to come out during my match tonight. You guys need to take care of this. Please...take him out, and while your at it, you shouldn't mind taking care of The Rock either.

Road Dogg: No problem at all Hunter.

Billy Gunn: Yeah, no problem.

Commercial Break

WWF Hardcore Championship:

Big Bossman© vs. Viscera

Throughout the match, Bossman uses several weapons on Viscera, but continues to fail to get him off his feet. Bossman finally knocked down Vis after blinding him with a fire extinguisher, and then nailing Viscera over the head with it. He covered him for the 3-count.

Winner: Big Bossman

Commercial Break

Kevin Kelly is backstage with The Rock and Mankind.

Kevin Kelly: Rock, Mankind tonight you guys reunite as the Rock 'N Connection to take on the WWF Tag Team Champions, the New Age Outlaws. I mean this must be an emotional night for the two of you, since 2 weeks ago on Raw you two competed against each other for your jobs, and then...

The Rock snatches the mic away from Kelly and tilts his head up

The Rock: FINALLY........THE ROCK....HAS COME BACK....TO ORLANDO! Now Kevin Kelly you can bet your monkey ass this is an emotional night for the two of us. Those D-X candy-asses thought they could. The Rock is gonna keep this short and sweet, New Age Outlaws, get ready for an ass-whoopin' of a lifetime, IF YA SMELLALALALALALLALALALOW, WHAT THE ROCK...

Mankind: AND SOCK IS COOKIN!!!!!!!!

The Rock gives a blank stare at Mankind.

The Rock: You're never going to get it are you?

The Rock then tilts his head up again

The Rock: ISSSSS COOKIN!!!!!

The Rock's music hits over the PA but it then interrupted by the New Age Outlaws' theme, as they head down the ramp into the ring.

Michael Cole: Don't go anywhere, The Rock 'N Sock Connection vs. the New Age Outlaws, next!

Commercial Break

The Rock 'N Sock Connection vs. New Age Outlaws

Road Dogg nailed The Rock in the back with a steel chair and the match ended in DQ.

Winners: The Rock 'N Sock Connection

Road Dogg and Billy Gunn double teamed The Rock, then Mankind comes back in the ring with the infamous sock over his hand, he locks the mandible claw on Road Dogg, then on Billy Gunn. Both men are now in the Mandible Claw laying on the mat, and then X-Pac came in the ring on the attack on Mankind, but Mankind hits a DDT, and then tosses X-Pac out of the ring. Billy Gunn is back on his feet while The Rock slides back into the ring, Rock Bottom!!! Road Dogg then gets back up, Rock Bottom!!!

The Rock's music then hits, and him an Mankind pose in the ring, they then cut to Triple H, and Stephanie who are in the back, looking on in disgust.

Commercial Break

Kurt Angle vs. Kane

Just like this past Monday on Raw, Steve Blackman came down to the ring, nailing Kane with his kendo stick, but this time while the ref wasn't looking. Angle hit the Olympic Slam to get the victory.

Winner: Kurt Angle

A video is shown with the number "13" appearing on the screen. It then reads "Taz is coming" in graffiti lettering

The "Y2J" countdown starts on the titan tron. 05...04...03...02...01...00...

Pyro blasts from the stage area and Chris Jericho's music hits. He appears on stage, in his wrestling gear, also with a mic in hand.

Chris Jericho: Welcome to......Orlando is Jericho!!!!!!! Now ever since what happened last week on Smackdown, there's been controversy over who is the real Intercontinental Champion, Y2J, or Chyna. Then Monday on Raw Stephanie McMahon-Hemsley and her assh*le husband Trip, make the two of us "co-champions". I have to say that that is complete bullsh*t! But tonight, I'm in a non-title match against Baldcore Holly, and I will win this one, for all the Jerichoholics out there!

Chris Jericho vs. Hardcore Holly

Hardcore Holly taps out to the Walls of Jericho, giving Chris Jericho the victory

Winner: Chris Jericho

Commercial Break

An outdoor shot of the Orlando Arena is shown on screen

Michael Cole: Well if you missed the first part of Smackdown folks, the new WWF Champ, Triple H came out to the ring talking about leading the WWF into the new millennium...

Jerry Lawler: Yeah...yeah and then Big Show came out here challenge Triple H to a rematch here tonight, just three days after winning it! Does have any respect for our champion, Michael Cole?

Michael Cole: It was in his contract, he had every right to do just that.

Triple H is shown backstage, along with his wife walking in the corridor, then they show Big Show doing the same.

Michael Cole: The rematch, Triple H and the Big Show, it's next! Don't go anywhere!

Commercial Break

"My Time" hits and the WWF Champion along with Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley walks down toward the ring, and does his water bottle routine on the ring apron.

The Big Show's music hits and he appears on the stage with a mic in hand again, along with his contract.

Big Show: Now everything I said earlier in this contract about my rematch clause, wasn't all. I've decided to save the best for last. My contract allows me to appoint a special referee, my pick, for this rematch, so Earl Hebner, you can get your ass out of the ring. Ladies and gentleman, the referee for this contest...

Mankind's music hits and he comes out with a referee shirt on, as Triple H is furious.

Michael Cole: Mankind is the referee King! Mankind will be the ref!

Jerry Lawler: WHAT?! This isn't fair!

WWF Championship, Special Guest Referee: Mankind:

Triple H© vs. Big Show

HHH is disqualified after hitting Big Show with a low blow, this time the ref, Mankind saw and called for the bell

Winner: Big Show via DQ

Mankind immediately tackles Triple H sending them both over the top rope. They brawl outside the ring and Triple H whips Mankind into the ring steps. They brawl some more, this time toward the announce table. Mankind hits a DDT on HHH, and he then sets him up on the announce table. Mankind climbs up and hits a pulling piledriver!

Mankind's music hits as he gets a loud ovation from the crowd. Fade to black.

End.

OOC: I know the match results are lame, but I really don't have the time to write up big summaries for each every week, I will for a few big matches and all the PPVs though.

Chris Benoit and Eddy Guerrero to the WWF?

There has been several rumors that WCW stars, Chris Benoit and Eddy Guerrero would be jumping ship the the WWF, with their contracts both ending on January 17, which is the day after WCW's "Souled Out" Pay-Per-View, and as far as anyone else knows, they both have not renewed their contracts. One would assume that they won't re-sign, seeing as they are both sick the what has been going on behind the scenes, and have been looking to leave the company for over a year now.

WCW Cuts 20+ Superstars!

WCW.com has confirmed that they have parted ways with the following talent, because of finacial issues: Kevin Sullivan, Madusa, James Dundee, Tank Abbott, Patrick, Gerald, David Flair, Daffney, Kaz Hayashi, Mona, Symphony, Brian Adams, Stevie Ray, Hugh Morris, Bam Bam Bigelow, Steve Williams, Torrie Wilson, The Demon, Gorgeous George, Mr. Biggs, Bryan Clarke, The Wall, Shannon Moore

"The Kat" Stacy Carter and Luna Vachon Released?

There have been many reports of backstage officials confirming that the WWF has released "The Kat" Stacy Carter and Luna Vachon. This is odd, since Carter is currently the WWF Women's Champion.

WWF Raw Is War Preview

January 10, 2000

Triple H's celebration for winning the World Wrestling Federation Championship last week at the first Raw is War of the year 2000 didn't go quite as planned this past Thursday night, when Big Show used his rematch clause for a rematch that very night on Smackdown. Not only that, but he later revealed that he can appoint a special referee, Mankind! Triple H walked out that night still with the WWF Title when he was disqualified for delivering a Low Blow to Big Show, but the fight didn't end there. Him and Mankind brawled after the match, leading to Mankind piledriving Triple H through the announce table. What will become of all this? Also, Chris Jericho and Chyna will face off to decide the undisputed Intercontinental Champion. All this and more, Monday night at 9/8c only on USA Network!

Pretty good Smackdown, I don't mind the match results being short, They got the point across. I liked you using Show alot on this Smackdown, Since WWF basically never had him get a rematch with HHH, My main problem with the match was, If Mankind was the special referee, Why would he disqualify HHH for a low blow? Wouldn't he just end up attacking HHH and costing him the title? Other than that, This seems to be going well. I hope you don't fire all of the shitty wrestlers though, Since some of them were actually used in 2000.

Looking forward to Raw Is War (Y)

Okay so after nearly 7 months, I decided to revive this diary. Obviously nobody here should remember this as I only posted one show, but I got caught up with things and couldn't find the time, and after that I lost the desire to continue on with this diary. I was thinking of starting a new WWF 1998 diary, but I'm better off finally getting this one underway, as I've seen several other new WWF 1998 around here and I'd like to do something original.

The RAW is WAR results will be up soon.

Mankind's music hits over the PA system, the crowd roars in ovation!

Jim Ross: And here comes Mankind who gave Triple H exactly what he deserved Thursday on Smackdown, piledriving him right through that announce table!

Mankind enters the ring and grabs a mic.

Mankind: If you think for one minute, Triple H that I'm done with you, you're wrong! For all you've done to me, for the no good scumbag of a champion you are, you will come down here right now so I can kick you ass all over Kansas City!

Triple H's music, "My Time" hits and he comes out alone, walking quickly down the ramp ready to fight. He then comes to a quick hault and smiles.

Breaking News: Eddie Guerrero Backstage at Raw last night

A reliable insider is reporting that WCW Superstar(well, he is still under WCW contract as far as we know), Eddie Guerrero was not at WCW Nitro live from Buffalo, but at WWF Raw is War in Kansas City. Although he hasn't appeared on WCW television for weeks, this news definatly lead you to believing that he'll be jumping ship the WWF, especially after the rumors last week that he and Benoit will be heading there after their WCW contracts are up in just 6 days(January 17). It is unknown at this point why Guerrero was backstage, and if WCW was aware of it.

Alright so I'm writing a what think was a very good, and important Smackdown(at least better than my last two shows) with good promos and storylines for the on and off for the past few hours, I'm about to start writing the main event, and my wonderful computer decides to freeze, and of course with my great luck, I forgot to save it along the way, even though I have every other show so far saved and I forgot to do this one. I'm really pissed over this so I'll just sum up the show. It will make me feel better if I just post this and get it behind me.

So if anyone actually reads this diary, pretend this was a Smackdown you missed and had to catch the results on the internet to see what happened.

WCW.com claims Eddie Guerrero wasn't backstage at Raw, and won't be going to the WWF

The following is on the headlines section of WCW.com:

World Championship Wrestling would like to make it clear that their superstar, Eddie Guerrero did not attend World Wrestling Federation's Raw is War taping this past Monday, despite the numerous internet rumors. Also, Guerrero will not be 'jumping ship' to the WWF, nor will other WCW superstar, Chris Benoit. WCW has contacted every single member of their talent roster and can confirm that nobody working for them will be the 'big WCW superstar' that is advertised to appear on next Monday's show. This is most likely a scam by the World Wrestling Federation, or an imposter is scheduled to show up. The WCW staff felt this was important to be cleared up with their fans.

WWF RAW IS WAR

January 17, 2000

Gampel Pavilion in Storrs, Connecticut

The Raw is War intro plays and many large pyro flames go off at the entrance way.

"Are you Ready?"

The D-X theme hits over the PA and out comes the entire stable of Triple H, Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley, X-Pac, and the Outlaws. Upon their arrival to the ring, Triple H grabs a mic.

Triple H: I promise you all a historic night, as the Royal Rumble draws near, just 6 days away. At the Rumble, you will see the New Age Outlaws put the WWF Tag Team Championships on the line against The Acolytes. My boy here, X-Pac has entered the Royal Rumble match, you're truly, The Game, will put MY WWF Championship on the line against Mick Foley in a Street Fight.

The crowd cheers.

Triple H: We're here tonight in northern Connecticut, just a couple of ours away from Stamford, Connecticut. The home of the WWF's headquarters, but not only that, but the home of a nice family, known as the McMahons. So earlier today....we decided to take a...well..."visit".

Jim Ross: Oh no, oh come on now.

Triple H: See Vince and Linda are out on vacation somewhere overseas, I have no idea where, so I decided to bring my boys here to visit their unattentended house, along with a camera man roll the footage please...

Jim Ross: Oh for the love of gawd what is this about?

EARLIER TODAY

A fuzzy camera shows Triple H driving a truck with X-Pac in the seat next to him, and Road Dogg and Billy Gunn in the back.

Triple H: Here we are guys.

The vehicle stops and they begin to get out of the truck. The camera from the outside shows a large mansion, which a huge garden and fountain in front

Billy Gunn: I thought for sure Stephanie would give us the wrong code, but we're here.

X-Pac: It's beautiful ain't it?

Road Dogg: Yeah but I think we could do a little work on it guys, follow me.

They all walk through a path through the garden and right in front of the house are about a dozen mint condition, expensive, shiny cars.

Reason Gillberg was brought back on TV during Raw is War last night

The reason Duane Gill a.k.a. Gillberg returned to TV was to bring the Light-Heavyweight Championship back. Now that the WCW's Cruiserweight division has been declining the past year, the WWF feel they should bring a solid Cruiserweight/Light-Heavyweight division into their company. Also, the WWF thought this would be a good way to bring in viewers who are looking to see Chris Benoit and/or Eddie Guerrero appear on WWF television.

WCW picks up some former ECW talent

Inside reports at WCW are confirming that WCW has signed Steve Corino, Scorpio, and Chris Candido to contracts. It will be interesting to see how they incorporate this guys into their product.

Weekly Ratings Report

The 1/10 edition of WWF RAW IS WAR recieved a 6.84 TV rating. Monday Nitro recieved a 5.63.

The 1/12 edition of WCW Thunder recieved a 5.08 TV rating.

The 1/13 edition of WWF Smackdown! recieved a 5.36 TV rating.

WCW 'Souled Out' recieved a 1.13 buyrate, the highest buyrate for a WCW PPV since SuperBrawl 1999, which must come to a surprise for the WCW.

The Rock does not appreciate this. So The Rock's got a little challenge for you Big Show. You see, you claim to be 7'2, 500 pounds, a monster, and let The Rock ask you something. Taking a #30 spot in the Royal Rumble, how manly is that bitch?

And actually I think you should turn that smile inside out because I have found a replacement for the Street Fight this Sunday!

WWF Royal Rumble 2000

Royal Rumble Match:

This will be the 13th annual Royal Rumble match. 29 men enter and 1 will be left standing. That man will be declared Royal Rumble winner and will go on to WrestleMania XVI in Anaheim to face the WWF Champion.

WWF Championship: Triple H© vs. Cactus Jack

The events leading up to this match date back to RAW IS WAR on December 27, 1999 in which The Rock defeated Mankind in a "Pink Slip on a Pole" match ordered by Triple H and Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley. Because of this, Mankind was fired, only to be brought back the next week as the entire locker room threatened to walk out on the WWF if Mick Foley was not reinstated. The rivalry continued until Mankind challenged Triple H to a Street Fight at the Royal Rumble which Triple H accepted. The following week, Mankind said he will be unable to compete in the Street Fight at the Royal Rumble and there will be a replacement: Cactus Jack! Will the hardcore legend capture his third WWF Championship or will the McMahon-Helmsley Era continue as Triple H retains?

For #30 Spot in the Royal Rumble: Big Show vs. The Rock

The Big Show had his #30 Spot in the Royal Rumble match given to him by Triple H. The Rock, who did not like this then challenged Big Show for this spot in a match at the Royal Rumble event. The #30 spot is the ultimate advantage in the match, and if whoever wins this Singles match is definately the favorite for the Royal Rumble match.

WWF Intercontinental Championship: Chris Jericho© vs. Hardcore Holly

Chris Jericho has already sucessfully defended his Intercontinental Title against Hardcore Holly numerous times in the past few weeks, but Hardcore Holly seems to have stepped up his game since. Will Hardcore Holly win the Intercontinental Title for the first time in his career? Or will Chris Jericho retain in his debut at where he called "Madison Square Jericho"?

WWF Tag Team Championship: New Age Outlaws© vs. The Acolytes

As members of D-X, New Age Outlaws have used their co-member X-Pac to "assist" them to their Tag Team title defenses. It was announced off-air but WWF officials that X-Pac will be banned from this match up. At the Royal Rumble, we'll find out which of these two teams is the one that's truely better.

WWF European Championship: Val Venis© vs. Kurt Angle

In 1996, Kurt Angle won an a gold medal in the Olympics in Atlanta, and he has now taken his career to the World Wrestling Federation, where he wants to capture more gold. For that reason he challenged European Champion Val Venis for his title.

Don't miss the 13th annual WWF Royal Rumble, this Sunday at 8/5 pacific only on Pay-Per-View!

They try and put Foley on the stretcher but Foley gives each of them right hand punches knocking them all to the floor. He then goes under the ring and pulls out a gray sack, which can only mean one thing! He slides back into the ring and swings the sack over Triple H's head, knocking him toward the ground. Triple H too now is a bloody mess and we're about to find out why. Mick Foley then drops thousands of thumbtacks in the middle of the ring!!!! He pulls Triple H back to his feet but is treated to a low blow. Triple H then locks his arms setting him up for you know what. THE PEDIGREE INTO THE THUMBTACKS!!!!!!!! He covers him, 1.....2.....3!!!!
