RAW Report 6/18/01
as he doesn't EXPOSE himself. We cut to commercial.
10) TAZZ d. HARDCORE HOLLY. Hardcore with a whip and immediately a dropkick. Hangs Tazz from the ropes and nails him with some kicks. Up top and a flying leg drop gets a two count. Tazz gets up and hits a weird suplex, followed by a clothesline. Another whip, reversed into a powerslam and that gets a two count. Whip into the buckle, Hardcore reverses and there's the Tazzmission! This one's over, and so I guess Hardcore won't be interrupting Tazz's promos for Tough Enough anymore.
11) Backstage STONE COLD confides in TAJIRI. He says LINDA MCMAHON in ruining VINCE MCMAHON's life, and in turn she's ruining Austin's life. He asks Tajiri what he should do. Tajiri talks in Japanese. Austin: "You're a very wise man." COMMISSIONER REGAL comes back in to tell Tajiri that his match is next. We cut to commercial.
12) Backstage EDGE and CHRISTIAN get a little peeved with each other messing up last week, and it sounds like they don't mind looking forward to facing each other in the finals. KURT ANGLE stops by to get them to not fight: "It pains me to see my two best friends at odds." Besides, he says, they'll never get past him anyway. They walk off and Kurt smiles to himself.
13) RHYNO d. TAJIRI. Kick to the gut by Rhyno, and we've already got an ECW chant. Hurricanrana by Tajiri and Rhyno hits the floor. Tajiri flips off the ropes onto Rhyno, and we go back into the ring for some chops. Off the ropes, Rhyno with a spinebuster and a near fall. Big right hand, off the ropes, Tajiri hits the springboard reverse elbow and he nails a huge kick and the octopus hold. Rhyno backs him to the ropes and Tajiri wails on him! Big kick blocked, Rhyno hits a powerbomb and sets up for the Gore. Tajiri gets up and nails a superkick instead of getting gored. Regal tells him to go up top, Tajiri does, but he gets gored and pinned. Sorry, but wrong move there, as the crowd was SOOOOOOO into Tajiri. Regal berates his assistant as we cut to commercial.
14) Backstage REGAL tells TAJIRI to "bugger off." Tajiri does.
15) Bong… he's here. THE UNDERTAKER is here, even though JIM ROSS said he wasn't. Wat a minute, that's NOT the Undertaker, it's THE STALKER,
