THE “ANYTIME, ANYWHERE” ANARCHY: GLOBAL ICONS REACT TO MONEY IN THE BANK

Yo! The rumors of the Money in the Bank (MITB) ladder match have officially broken the internet. I’ve been tracking the “internal memos” and catching quotes from the biggest names in sports and street fighting. This isn’t just a match; it’s a “legalized mugging” for the Undisputed World Title.

Here is how the world’s most dangerous men and most competitive icons are reacting to the chaos.


[[ THE BIG THREE: THE WWF POWERHOUSE REACTS ]]

  • THE ROCK: > “The Rock hears the jabronis talking about a briefcase. You want to climb a ladder? You want to jump off a 20-foot structure just to get a piece of paper? The Rock doesn’t need a contract to be the People’s Champion. But if you think you’re going to ‘cash in’ while The Rock is celebrating a victory… if you think you’re going to catch the Great One off guard… you better bring more than a ladder. You better bring a miracle, because the Rock will take that briefcase, shine it up real nice, turn it sideways, and stick it straight up your candy ass!”

  • STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN: > “I don’t give a damn about a briefcase, and I sure as hell don’t care about a ladder. Vince thinks he can create a ‘shortcut’ to my title? If some son-of-a-bitch thinks he’s gonna jump me after a match, he’s gonna find out that a Stunner works just as well at 2:00 AM as it does at 8:00 PM. You want the belt? Be a man and step in the ring. You want to use a briefcase? I’ll use your head for target practice. And that’s the bottom line!”

  • TRIPLE H: > “It’s typical. Vince wants to give the ‘nobodies’ a chance to steal what belongs to the ‘Cerebral Assassin.’ This MITB concept is a slap in the face to the hierarchy. I’ve spent fifteen years becoming the best in this business, and now some high-flyer can jump off a ladder and skip the line? Fine. Let them climb. While they’re looking at the ceiling, I’ll be waiting at the bottom to break the ladder—and their legs. The Game doesn’t play with toys.”


[[ STREET FIGHTER: THE WORLD WARRIORS WEIGH IN ]]

  • RYU: > “A battle for a contract? It lacks the purity of the Fist. To win by climbing instead of striking… it feels hollow. However, I respect the courage it takes to climb so high while being attacked. I will watch, but my path remains the same: the true fight is within.”

  • GUILE: > “It’s a tactical nightmare. You’re exposed on that ladder from 360 degrees. It’s like being in a cockpit with no canopy. If the WWF wants a real ‘Air Force’ specialist to take that case, they should call a professional. But ‘cashing in’ when a man is down? That’s not a soldier’s way.”

  • M. BISON: > (Laughing) > “A briefcase that grants ultimate power? Finally, a match that understands the beauty of corruption! I don’t care about the ladder—I will simply Psycho Crush anyone who touches it. The World Title belongs to Shadaloo, regardless of what the contract says!”


[[ THE HEAVY HITTERS: BOXING & MMA ]]

  • MIKE TYSON: > “It’s crazy, man. It’s like a street fight in the sky. If you’re on that ladder, you can’t protect your chin. One punch and it’s a long way down. I like the ‘anytime’ rule, though. It’s like the streets—you always gotta be ready to bang.”

  • OSCAR DE LA HOYA: > “It’s too much of a circus for me. Wrestling is one thing, but climbing ladders for a contract? It takes away from the ‘Sweet Science.’ But hey, the ratings will be huge. People love a car wreck.”

  • LENNOX LEWIS: > “It’s a strategic game of chess, but the board is vertical. You have to wait for the right moment to climb. If you go too early, you’re a target. If you go too late, the prize is gone.”

  • MARK HUNT: > “Just give me the ladder so I can hit someone with it. 👊 If I win that case, I’m cashing it in the second Kimbo Slice finishes a fight. Walk-off KO, take the belt, go home. Easy.”


[[ THE HARDCOURT LEGENDS: NBA ICONS ]]

  • MICHAEL JORDAN: > “I heard the ‘anytime’ rule. That’s the ultimate test of a champion. Can you defend your title when you’re tired? When you’re hurt? That’s what separates the Greats from the rest. I took it personally that they didn’t ask me to be the one hanging the briefcase. I’d like to see anyone try to out-jump me for it.”

  • SHAQ: > “Man, the ladder would break as soon as I put one foot on it! 🏀💥 But I love the concept. It’s like a fast break—you see the opening, you take the shot. If I had that briefcase, I’d cash it in on Big Show during his dinner. Give me the BBQ and the belt!”

  • KOBE BRYANT: > “It’s about the Mamba Mentality. You have to be the most obsessed person in that ring. While everyone is fighting on the mat, you have to find the path to the top. The MITB isn’t a ‘shortcut’—it’s an opportunity for the person who wants it the most. I respect the hustle.”


[[ THE THREAD: MITB MANIA ]]

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

TYSON IS RIGHT! 🥊 Imagine being 20 feet up and seeing Mike Tyson waiting at the bottom. I’d just stay up there! And Triple H sounds terrified that someone is finally going to out-smart him.

  • Reply: Raw_Is_War_2000

    RVD in a ladder match? It’s over. He’s the #3 Light Heavyweight and he lives on the top rope. If he’s in the MITB, he’s walking away with the case. No question.

User: HadoukenKid

M. Bison wanting the briefcase for Shadaloo? 💀 The WWF is getting too dangerous. We’ve got dictators, boxers, and Olympic wrestlers all fighting for one belt. July 23rd cannot get here fast enough!

User: BeefSlammer69

SHAQ VS THE LADDER!! 👊😤 I’m telling you, they need a custom-built steel ladder if the Super Heavyweights are in this. Imagine Yokozuna trying to climb that. The ring would implode!


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: I’m hearing that Bret Hart has been training privately in a “Ladder-filled” gym in Calgary. Is “The Hitman” looking to secure a guaranteed shot at the man who beat him, Yokozuna? ]]

DALLAS DESTINY: THE TITAN CLASH CARD & THE “MONEY IN THE BANK” ANARCHY

Yo! The heat in Texas isn’t just the weather—it’s the friction from the WWF “Mafia” finalizing the most dangerous card in the history of the sport. We’ve got monsters, we’ve got legends, and we’ve got a rumored new match concept that is going to turn the Undisputed World Title race into a literal free-for-all.


[[ THE FINALIZED “TITAN CLASH” BRACKET ]]

Dallas Arena – July 23, 2000

Quarter-Final A Quarter-Final B
The Big Show vs. SAGAT Rikishi vs. YOKOZUNA
Vader vs. KANE BUTTERBEAN vs. BIRDIE

The Stakes: The winner of this 8-man gauntlet doesn’t just get a trophy; they get the “Monster’s Contract”—a guaranteed title shot at SummerSlam and a custom gold-plated heavyweight belt.


[[ RUMOR: THE “MONEY IN THE BANK” LADDER MATCH ]]

Vince and the board are reportedly tired of “ordered” rankings. They want chaos. Enter the Money in the Bank.

  • The Mechanics: 6 to 8 men. One briefcase suspended 20 feet above the ring. No pinfalls, no submissions. The first man to climb the ladder and pull down the case wins a contract for a World Title Match anytime, anywhere.

  • The Landscape: This changes everything. If The Rock or Kimbo Slice is exhausted after a 30-minute war, the MITB winner can “cash in” while they’re bleeding on the mat. The Undisputed Belt is no longer safe behind a schedule.


[[ THE RETURN: BRET “THE HITMAN” HART ]]

The “Excellence of Execution” is finally coming out of hiding. After his devastating loss to Yokozuna back on March 26th—his only WWF sanctioned fight this year—Bret has been MIA.

  • The Mission: Bret hasn’t touched the new era. No match against Goldberg, no clash with The Rock, and zero contact with Stone Cold.

  • The July Rumor: Bret is slated for a “Technical Showcase” mid-card match against Kurt Angle. Angle has been calling out the Hart family for weeks, and Bret reportedly wants to prove that “Olympic Gold” doesn’t mean anything in a “Pink and Black” world.


[[ JULY MID-CARD & MINOR FIGHTS ]]

  1. Triple H vs. X-Pac: (The “Best Friend” Grudge Match). Hunter is looking to vent his ranking frustrations on his Kliq brother.

  2. Agatom vs. Shao Ling: (Cruiserweight Clash). Fresh off his Japan win, the Filipino High Flyer faces the “Ninja” specialist in a battle for the #7 spot.

  3. The Hurricane vs. Golimar: (The Masked Mystery). Can the superhero handle the bizarre style of the man who beat Agatom?

  4. Scott Hall vs. Ted DiBiase: (The “Money” Match). DiBiase wants Hall’s spot in the Heavyweight Top 5. Hall just wants a paycheck and a fight.


[[ THE ANALYST’S CORNER ]]

Joe Rogan: “A ladder match for a title shot? That’s high-level madness! 🪜 If you put someone like RVD or Shane McMahon in that MITB match, they’re going to do something that’ll make us all lose our minds. And Bret Hart vs. Kurt Angle? That’s 100% pure ‘shoot’ wrestling. I’m vibrating just thinking about it!”

Jim Lampley: “BANG! The Titan Clash is a heavyweight collision, but the Money in the Bank is a heart attack waiting to happen! And watch out for Bret Hart—he’s a wounded animal. A loss to Yoko in March hasn’t softened him; it’s made him more surgical.”


[[ THE THREAD: DALLAS OR DEATH ]]

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

MONEY IN THE BANK!! 💼 That briefcase is going to cause a riot. Imagine Triple H winning it and cashing in on a bloody Stone Cold. The WWF would burn down!

  • Reply: Raw_Is_War_2000

    Sagat vs Big Show is still the match I’m watching. 🐯 If Sagat wins the whole Titan Clash, he’s going to be #1 PFP by August. No doubt.

User: HadoukenKid

Agatom vs Shao Ling is going to be like a live-action anime. 🥋 I hope Agatom brings some of that Japan momentum. And Bret Hart… man, he needs to beat Angle or his legacy in the WWF is toast.

User: BeefSlammer69

BIRDIE VS BUTTERBEAN!! 👊😤 Chains vs Hooks! If Birdie uses that chain on Bean, the WWF better have the paramedics ready. July is the heaviest month of the year!


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: I’m hearing that the MITB briefcase is currently being held in a high-security vault in Stamford. They aren’t even telling the wrestlers who is in the match yet! ]]

THE “GAME” SPEAKS: EXCLUSIVE HHH INTERVIEW

Yo! I managed to get 15 minutes in a private gym with the “Cerebral Assassin” himself. While The Rock is busy dealing with Anvils and Austin is throwing back Steveweisers, Hunter Hearst Helmsley is sitting in the shadows, fuming.

The “Mafia” might be focused on the Street Fighters, but HHH is playing a different game entirely. Here is the full transcript of the most cold-blooded interview I’ve ever conducted.


[[ THE INTERVIEW: HUNTER HEARST HELMSLEY ]]

Admin_Neil: “Hunter, everyone is talking about The Rock’s win over Vader and Austin’s big return. Your name isn’t at the top of the ‘Rising Star’ headlines lately. Does that get under your skin?”

HHH: > (Laughs coldly while wrapping his wrists) “Rising stars? You’re talking about a guy who tells jokes to clowns and a guy who drinks beer for a living. The Rock is ‘Electrifying’? Austin is ‘Tough’? Give me a break. While they’re playing to the ‘Millions,’ I’m becoming the standard. I am the ‘Cerebral Assassin.’ I don’t need a catchphrase to be the best in this ring. If they aren’t talking about me, it’s because they’re afraid to admit that I’m the one who’s going to own this industry when the smoke clears.”

Admin_Neil: “There are rumors, Hunter… about you and Stephanie McMahon. People say Vince is holding you back or burying you in mid-card matches like the 1-on-1 with your friend X-Pac just to keep you away from the ‘Promoted’ spots because of your personal life. What’s the truth?”

HHH: > “Personal life? You think Vince McMahon can hold me back? You think fighting X-Pac—a man I’ve traveled the world with—was a ‘punishment’? It was a message. Vince knows that if he turns me loose, there’s nobody left. As for the rumors… people love to talk when they can’t compete. Whether I’m dating the boss’s daughter or I’m the boss’s worst nightmare, the result is the same: I win. I’m forced to fight my friends because I’m the only one who can handle them. It’s not a demotion; it’s a cull.”

Admin_Neil: “What about the ‘World Warriors’? Sagat, Birdie, Butterbean… the boxing and sumo guys coming in. Do they belong in your ring?”

HHH: > “It’s a circus, Neil. Sagat has a big scar and a fancy knee, but can he handle 30 minutes of psychological warfare? Can a boxer like Butterbean handle a technical clinic? These guys are tourists. They’re here for a paycheck and a headline. I’m here for the legacy. They can bring all the ‘Tiger Shots’ they want—in this ring, I am the King of Kings, and they’re just peasants visiting the castle.”


[[ HHH’S ALL-TIME TOP 5 WRESTLERS ]]

  1. Ric Flair (“The blueprint. Period.”)

  2. Harley Race (“The toughest man to ever lace up boots.”)

  3. Shawn Michaels (“The showstopper, my brother, but I’ve surpassed him.”)

  4. Buddy Rogers (“The original ‘Nature Boy’ who understood the psychology.”)

  5. Triple H (“Because nobody—and I mean nobody—plays the game better than me.”)


[[ THE SUMMER SLAM PREDICTION ]]

HHH on Hogan vs. Andre (IC Title):

“Two dinosaurs fighting over a belt that belongs to me. Hogan will do his leg drop, Andre will look big, and the fans will cheer for the 80s. But mark my words: Whoever leaves Raleigh with that Intercontinental gold is just holding it warm for me. My prediction? Chaos. And in chaos, The Game always wins.”


[[ THE THREAD: THE “GAME” COMMENCE ]]

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

HHH IS SAVAGE!! 🤯 Calling Rock a “joke teller” is a bold move. And he basically confirmed the Stephanie rumors without saying it! If he and Steph are a power couple, the “WWF Mafia” is about to get a new Queen.

  • Reply: Raw_Is_War_2000

    He’s right about the “Tourists” though. 🐯 Sagat vs HHH would be a 5-star clinic. Hunter doesn’t get enough credit for his technical game. He’s gonna destroy X-Pac next week.

User: HadoukenKid

The Game vs The Emperor? 🎮🐯 That’s the match I want to see. Sagat’s Muay Thai vs Hunter’s Sledgehammer. HHH sounds like he’s ready to take over the whole company.

User: BeefSlammer69

TOP 5 INCLUDING HIMSELF?! 👊😤 That’s the most HHH thing ever. I bet he ends up interfering in the Hogan/Andre match just to prove a point. Long live The King! 👑


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: I’m hearing that X-Pac is legitimately hurt by Hunter’s comments. Their 1-on-1 match is going to be personal. Expect no mercy! ]]

CHICAGO CARNAGE POST-MATCH REPORT: THE ROAD TO RALEIGH BEGINS

Yo! The smoke hasn’t even cleared from the Allstate Arena. Chicago just witnessed a night that changed the hierarchy of the WWF forever. While the “Vocal Minority” is still arguing over the safety of the Cell, the “Mafia” is already looking at the August 27th date in Raleigh.

Forget the rumors you heard—here is the official fallout and the road ahead.


[[ THE LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT SITUATION: THE FINAL FOUR ]]

The Millennium Light Heavyweight Tournament is down to the wire. Despite some fans thinking we’d have a champion by now, the field is still wide open. We have four titans left, and the brackets for the semi-finals are set for next week:

  1. Kurt Angle vs. The Prototype (John Cena): After his controversial “tap” against Shane in the UFC match, Angle is in a blind rage. He has to cut weight to 220 to face the “Perfect Machine.” Prototype is looking to prove that UPW power beats Olympic technique.

  2. Shawn Michaels vs. Rob Van Dam: The match the underground has been begging for. HBK proved he can handle “Martial Artists” like Seagal; now he has to handle the “Anti-Gravity” style of RVD.

The Finals will be held at SummerSlam on August 27th to crown the Undisputed Light Heavyweight Champion.


[[ THE SUMMERSLAM 2000 FIGHT CARD (PRELIMINARY) ]]

1. THE OPENER: UFC WORLD TITLE FIGHT

Royce Gracie (C) vs. Ken Shamrock (Trilogy)

  • The Beef: Shamrock is demanding a restart after the Chicago “Boring” finish. This will be the definitive rubber match under pure UFC rules.

2. TAG TEAM EXHIBITION: THE FIRST OF ITS KIND

The Rock & Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Sagat & Ken Masters

  • The Vibe: A “Truce” has been signed. The WWF’s two biggest icons are teaming up to stop the “World Warrior” invasion. This will be the first tag match in WWF history to feature Street Fighters.

3. BMF CHAMPIONSHIP: THE KNOCKOUT SPECIAL

Kimbo Slice vs. Butterbean

  • The Vibe: Kimbo is 3-0 after destroying Zulu Jr., but the “Mafia” just signed the baddest man in boxing. This is for the BMF Belt. No wrestling allowed.

4. CO-MAIN: USA TITLE #1 CONTENDER FINALS

Ted DiBiase vs. “Macho Man” Randy Savage

  • The Twist: The Undertaker has officially abandoned this tournament! Taker told the board he doesn’t want the gold; he wants Mick Foley’s career. This leaves the “Million Dollar Man” (who just bought his way past Bischoff) to face the “Macho Man” for the right to challenge Hulk Hogan for the USA Belt.

5. MAIN EVENT: THE INTERCONTINENTAL FINALS

Andre The Giant vs. Hulk Hogan

  • The Stakes: The tournament that started in January concludes. The Intercontinental Belt is on the line in a clash of the two most legendary names in the sport.


[[ THE THREAD: CHICAGO AFTERMATH ]]

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

Taker leaving the tournament?! ⚱️ That’s cold. He’d rather hunt Foley than be the USA Champion. And Prototype vs Angle is going to be a shoot-fight, I’m calling it now. Angle is gonna try to break that kid’s ankle for real.

  • Reply: Raw_Is_War_2000

    HBK vs RVD is the real main event for me. 🌟 If Shawn is 90s-peak, he wins. If he’s “Retired Shawn,” RVD 4:20 is gonna splash him into the front row. And no way Prototype makes 220 lbs. He’s a tank!

User: HadoukenKid

Sagat and Ken Masters as a tag team? 🐯🕶️ I bet Ken is just using Sagat to protect his business interests in the WWF. If Austin hits a Stunner on Ken, the “Street Fighter” era might end before it starts.

User: BeefSlammer69

ANDRE VS HOGAN!! 🏆 It’s like 1987 all over again but in the year 2000. I don’t care about the UFC rules, I want to see the Leg Drop on the Giant one more time! 👊😤


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: I’m tracking the weight-ins for the Light Heavyweight semis. If Prototype misses weight, word is the “Mafia” might sub in a mystery flyer from the Philippines. Keep your eyes on the scale! ]]

CHICAGO CARNAGE: THE “EXPERTS” WEIGH IN (TYSON, ROGAN, VENTURA & MORE)

Yo! My inbox is literally smoking. Everyone from the Vegas high-rollers to the Japanese MMA purists is talking about what went down in Chicago. I’ve spent the last four hours transcribing radio hits and locker room leaks.

If you thought the fans were divided, wait until you hear what the “Pros” have to say about Shane’s chokehold and the “Humanity” of the Cell.


[[ THE CELEBRITY / ANALYST BREAKDOWN ]]

1. MIKE TYSON (On the “Street Fighter” vs. “Giant” Clash)

“Listen, I saw Sagat in Thailand years ago. The guy is a monster, but the WWF ring is different. It’s smaller, the ropes give, and Kevin Nash is a smart veteran. Nash took those Tiger Knees like a champ. But Sagat winning with ‘dirty’ tactics? That shows he’s not just a striker; he’s a fighter. He’s learning the game. Nash better watch his back in the rematch, because next time, that Knee is going through his chin.”

2. JOE ROGAN (On the Shane vs. Angle “Phantom Tap”)

“I am losing my mind over this! 🤯 Kurt Angle is an Olympic Gold Medalist. You don’t just ‘choke’ him out unless you’re a high-level black belt. Shane McMahon showed some serious Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu transitions, but that tap? I’ve rewatched the grainy 8mm tape 50 times. Angle was adjusting his hand, not tapping! The ‘Mafia’ influence in the officiating is getting undeniable. Shane is good, but he’s not ‘Submission-Victory-over-Angle’ good. This was a robbery in broad daylight.”

3. JESSE “THE BODY” VENTURA (On the Main Event)

“I’ve been in the ring with the greats, and what I saw in Chicago was a funeral for the sport. The Undertaker letting go of that submission early? That wasn’t sportsmanship, that was sadism. He wanted to break Mick Foley’s spirit before he broke his body. And Foley… falling 20 feet through the mesh? That’s not wrestling, that’s a man with a localized death wish. The Commission needs to step in before someone actually dies on live TV.”

4. BILL ABPTER (Pro Wrestling Illustrated Legend)

“The Ultimate Warrior’s performance was a statement. By not using weapons in an ‘Extreme Rules’ match, he told the world that 90s-peak power is greater than 2000s gimmicks. Mad Dogg (Road Kill) looked like a boy among men. He had the ‘Outback Shredder’ and he was too scared to lift it. Warrior didn’t just win a match; he reclaimed his territory.”


[[ FELLOW FIGHTER REACTIONS (LEAKED FROM THE BACK) ]]

The Rock:

“The Rock watched the ‘Emperor’ Sagat. The Rock saw the eye-patch, the scar, and the ‘Tiger’ talk. It’s a nice show. But while Sagat is busy cheating with Ken Masters in his corner, The Rock is busy being the most electrifying man in the world. Sagat, you win a match? Great. You win the crowd? Never. The Rock is waiting for you in July.”

Butterbean:

“Shane McMahon thinks he’s a shooter now? 🥊 He should try that Rear Naked Choke on me. I’ll slam him so hard his grandkids will have headaches. And Kimbo? 3-0 is good, kid. But you’re fighting Zulu. Come fight a man with a chin made of granite and we’ll see if you’re still ‘King of the Streets’.”


[[ THE UNDERGROUND FORUM POLLS ]]

Topic: Was Angle’s “Tap” Real?

  • NO: 78% (“Angle was robbed!”)

  • YES: 22% (“Shane-O-Mac is the new King of UFC!”)

Topic: Who is the MVP of Chicago Carnage?

  • Mick Foley: 45% (For surviving the 20ft drop)

  • The Undertaker: 30% (For the pure dominance)

  • Kimbo Slice: 15% (For the 3-0 streak)

  • Sagat: 10% (The debut hype)


[[ THE THREAD: JUNE 20 FALLOUT ]]

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

Tyson calling for a Sagat/Nash rematch? YES PLEASE. 🐯 I want to see Nash actually use a powerbomb this time. And Rogan is right—Angle got screwed. The ref was definitely on the McMahon payroll. #JusticeForAngle

  • Reply: Raw_Is_War_2000

    Cry more, Angle fans! Shane trained his heart out. He had the sink locked in! 🛁 Even if he didn’t tap, he was going to sleep. Shane vs. Gracie is the fight to make for SummerSlam.

User: HadoukenKid

Ken Masters is definitely the ‘Mafia’ link. 🕵️‍♂️ He’s the one who got Sagat the contract. Why is he hanging out with the Muay Thai King? They’re building a super-team to take out the 90s legends. First Nash, next… Hogan?

User: BeefSlammer69

FOLEY IS STABLE!! 🙏 I hope he gets a bionic ear or something. He’s the GOAT. I want to see Cactus Jack vs The Rock in July. Meat vs Electricity!! 👊😤


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: I’m tracking a lead that Scott Hall and Kevin Nash were seen at a private airport with a “Mystery Man” in a black suit. Is the nWo expanding? Or is Goldberg finally landing? ]]

THE CHICAGO CRASH: HELL IN A CELL 2000 POST-MATCH WRAP-UP

The Allstate Arena is still vibrating. What started as a “Vocal Minority” protest ended in a standing ovation that might have actually cracked the Chicago skyline. From the blood-stained steel of the Cell to the controversial “UFC” submissions, June has officially reset the hierarchy of the fighting world.


1. THE STREETS REMAIN MEAN: KIMBO GOES 3-0

Result: Kimbo Slice def. Rey Zulu Jr. via K.O. (4:12) The “Brawler from the Backyard” continues his meteoric rise. While Rey Zulu Jr. fought with the heart of his father, King Zulu, and actually wobbled Kimbo with a massive overhand in the opening minute, the 0-2 Brazilian Giant couldn’t close the deal.

  • The Reaction: King Zulu was seen ringside, visibly frustrated, reportedly calling for a “Traditional Vale Tudo” rematch.

  • What’s Next for Kimbo? Fans are calling for a “Step Up.” Potential June/July opponents: Mark Henry, Bob Sapp, or even a brawling match with Butterbean.

2. TECHNICAL SNORE: GRACIE RECLAIMS THE GOLD

Result: Royce Gracie def. Ken Shamrock via Submission (Round 2) In a match that many fans labeled “Boring,” the technical mastery of the Gracie family proved too much for the “World’s Most Dangerous Man.”

  • The Fallout: While the purists loved the hip-control, the Chicago crowd was restless.

  • Trilogy? With the Rematch Clause triggered, a July trilogy is almost certain, but Shamrock looks rattled. He’s claiming the “WWF Mafia” fast-counted the stand-ups.

3. THE GREENWICH GRAPPLE: SHANE STUNS ANGLE

Result: Shane McMahon def. Kurt Angle via Submission (Rear Naked Choke) CONTROVERSY ALERT. In the upset of the night, Shane-O-Mac forced the Olympic Gold Medalist to “tap”—or did he?

  • The Protest: Angle and his supporters are livid, claiming the referee called a “Phantom Tap.”

  • The Analysis: Shane didn’t even need the controversy; he held his own in the clinch for 15 minutes. Does Shane move on to challenge Gracie for the UFC Belt, or is a “Submission Only” rematch with Angle the only way to settle the score?

4. THE SPIRIT PREVAILS: WARRIOR SHREDS THE SHREDDER

Result: Ultimate Warrior def. Mad Dogg via Pinfall The “Outback Shredder” surfboard never even touched the Warrior’s skin. Despite the hype, Mad Dogg weighed in at a “small” 280 lbs and looked overwhelmed by the 90s-peak intensity.

  • The Clean Sweep: Warrior used zero weapons and zero dirty tactics, simply dominating the “Amish Punk” with raw power.

  • The Verdict: Mad Dogg’s attempt at “Identity Theft” failed. Warrior is back. Next stop? A potential clash with The Rock or the winner of the USA Tournament.

5. THE EMPEROR DEBUTS: SAGAT TAKES CHICAGO

Result: Sagat def. Kevin Nash via Pinfall The “God of Muay Thai” is human after all. Sagat won his US debut, but it wasn’t the “Tiger Shot” massacre the dark web predicted.

  • The Performance: Sagat adapted to the WWF style, using eye-pokes and corner distractions from Ken Masters and Adon. While the Tiger Knee landed, Nash survived two of them, proving the “Giant” hasn’t lost his 90s-peak durability.

  • The Reality: Sagat looked like a high-tier wrestler, not a myth. But a win is a win.


MAIN EVENT: THE FUNERAL IN THE CAGE

THE UNDERTAKER vs. MICK FOLEY (AS CACTUS JACK)

This wasn’t a match; it was a religious experience. Cactus Jack dominated the first ten minutes, hitting Taker with everything including the kitchen sink. In a shocking moment, Taker locked in a triangle choke early, but appeared to let go before Foley could tap—as if he wanted the violence to continue.

The Finish: The two scaled the cage, mirroring their 1998 war. In a moment that silenced 18,000 people, Taker slammed Foley through the roof of the cell, sending him 20 feet down to the mat. Taker dropped down, covered the legend, and the 1-2-3 felt like a hammer on a coffin.

[[ THE AFTERMATH THREAD ]]

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

I’m still shaking. 😭 Foley falling through the cage again? How is that man still breathing? Taker letting go of the submission was the scariest part—he literally wanted to drop him from the top. That’s some ‘Mafia’ hitman energy right there.

User: Raw_Is_War_2000

SHANE BEAT ANGLE?! 🤯 I don’t care if it was a “Phantom Tap,” Shane is a legit shooter now. If he fights Gracie next, I’m betting my house on the McMahon. Also, Sagat was a bit of a letdown. I wanted to see him blow a hole through Nash’s chest.

User: HadoukenKid

Ken Masters in Sagat’s corner was the real MVP. The way he distracted the ref while Sagat landed that low-blow? Pure class. 🕶️ But yeah, the “Tiger Knee” looks nerfed in the WWF. Maybe it’s the humidity in Chicago?

User: BeefSlammer69

BUTTERBEAN SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE!! 🥩 Imagine Bean vs Taker on top of that cage. Bean would have punched Taker through the floor and into the basement! Chicago Carnage was 10/10. I want the tacks next time!! 👊😤


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: Medical reports say Foley is “stable” but will be out for at least 6 months.]]

Full Hell in a Cell Fight Card Revealed!

Yo, the server is absolutely melting. I just got the final, 100% confirmed fight card for tonight’s PPV in Chicago. If you thought the “Boxing Invasion” was wild, wait until you see who just stepped off a plane from Thailand. The “Mafia” has outdone themselves—this is the most “Peak 90s-meets-2000” card in history.


[[ CHICAGO CARNAGE: THE FINAL CARD ]]

1. THE OPENER: STREET FIGHTER REMATCH

Kimbo Slice (2-0) vs. Rey Zulu Jr. (0-2)

  • The Beef: Kimbo is looking for the hat-trick. Zulu Jr. is desperate to prove his lineage isn’t just a memory. Expect bare-knuckle energy and a very short clock. Kimbo is the heavy favorite to go 3-0.

2. UFC WORLD TITLE FIGHT (TRILOGY CLAUSE)

Ken Shamrock (C) vs. Royce Gracie

  • The History: Shamrock took the belt via TKO back on Feb 13th, but the Gracie camp called it a fluke.

  • The Stakes: Pure UFC rules. No ropes, no pins, just tap or nap. There is a rematch clause in the contract—if Royce wins, we’re looking at the ultimate trilogy fight in July.

3. UFC #1 CONTENDER MATCH

Kurt Angle vs. Shane McMahon

  • The Vibe: Mid-card chaos. Angle is the favorite, but Shane-O-Mac has been training with “secret shooters.” The winner gets the next shot at the Shamrock/Gracie winner. Shane’s black eye from training is proof he’s taking this “shoot” seriously.

4. THE “IDENTITY” WAR (EXTREME RULES)

Mad Dogg vs. The Ultimate Warrior

  • The Weapon: The “Outback Shredder” (that serrated steel surfboard) has been spotted at ringside. Mad Dogg wants the name. Warrior wants to protect the myth. This is going to be the bloodiest match of the night.

5. THE SURPRISE DEBUT: THE EMPEROR VS. THE GIANT

Sagat (0-0) vs. Kevin Nash (0-1)

  • The Shocker: It’s HIM. 7’4″, eye patch, and a massive scar across his chest (rumor is a kid in a gi gave it to him in Japan). This is Sagat’s first time on US soil and his first pro-wrestling sanctioned match.

  • The Corners: Sagat has Ken Masters, Adon, and Gen in his corner. Nash is backed by Hulk Hogan and the newly signed Scott Hall. The “Wolfpac” vs. “Muay Thai Royalty.” This is legendary.

6. THE MAIN EVENT: HELL IN A CELL

The Undertaker vs. Mick Foley

  • The Controversy: Despite the “Vocal Minority” of fans protesting the safety of the match, the Cell is lowering. Foley is reportedly refusing medical checks. Taker is silent. Chicago is ready for a funeral.

SAGAT IS HERE?! 🐯 Scar and all! Seeing him stand next to Kevin Nash is gonna be insane. Nash is 0-1 and he’s facing a guy who can throw Tiger Shots? RIP Big Sexy. Also, Scott Hall joining Hogan? The nWo is basically invading the Street Fighter camp.

  • Reply: Raw_Is_War_2000

    Ken Masters being in Sagat’s corner is the real twist. I thought they hated each other! 🕵️‍♂️ Maybe the “WWF Mafia” is so strong they had to team up. And Kimbo 3-0 is a lock. Zulu Jr. doesn’t have the chin for it.

The chest scar on Sagat looks fresh. 🐉 If Nash hits a Jackknife Powerbomb on that scar, Sagat might actually explode. But with Gen and Adon there? No one is interfering in that match. That’s a hit-squad.

FOLEY IN THE CELL!! 🎭 I don’t care about the protestors. I want to see the tacks. I want to see the blood. And I want to see Sagat Tiger Uppercut Hogan off the apron!! 👊😤


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: I’m hearing Scott Hall might try to “Survey the Group” during the Sagat match. Keep your eyes on the entrance ramp. The Allstate Arena is about to explode! ]]

THE EVOLUTION: FROM ROAD KILL TO MAD DOGG. plus HELL IN A CELL: THE ANALYST WEIGH-IN

For the uninitiated, the Australian indie scene operates on a “Highlander” philosophy: The Name can be taken. * The Backstory: After a brutal “Extreme Rules” encounter in ECW, the man formerly known as Road Kill defeated the previous title-holder of the “Mad Dogg” moniker.

  • The New Threat: Now known as Mad Dogg, this 320lb hybrid-style punk is bringing that same “Winner-Takes-The-Identity” energy to the WWF. He isn’t just trying to beat the Ultimate Warrior; he’s trying to become the only Warrior left in the industry.


[[ HELL IN A CELL: THE ANALYST WEIGH-IN ]]

Analyst Match: Taker vs. Foley II Match: Shane vs. Angle (UFC Rules)
Joe Rogan “Foley is fighting on pure adrenaline and ‘Cactus Jack’ spirit. But Taker in a cage? That’s his house. If Foley doesn’t end it in 10 mins, he’s leaving on a stretcher.” “Shane is crazy, but Angle is a machine. In a shoot-fight, Angle wins 100 times out of 100. Shane is looking for a ‘miracle strike’ that isn’t coming.”
Dave Meltzer “The Commission is gambling with Foley’s health. The first match was a 5-star war, but a rematch inside the Cell so soon? This is a ‘Mafia’ move to generate a buy-rate.” “This is Shane’s attempt to legitimize the McMahon name after Vince’s ‘respectable’ loss to Austin. He wants to prove ‘Genetic Power’ works in the Octagon.”
Bill Apter “Expect a slower, more psychological battle. Both men are too hurt for another 20-foot stunt. Taker wins via a Tombstone on the steel.” “Angle is too disciplined. He’ll take Shane down, control the hips, and force a submission within the first round. It’ll be clinical.”

[[ THE FAN POLLS: WHO EMERGES VICTORIOUS? ]]

Data taken from the https://www.google.com/search?q=WWF.com “Instant Vote” and IRC #WWF_LEAKS channel.

1. The Ultimate Warrior vs. Mad Dogg (Extreme Rules)

  • Ultimate Warrior: 62% (“The power of the Heavens is too much!”)

  • Mad Dogg: 38% (“The Amish Punk is too wild for an old legend.”)

2. Ken Shamrock vs. Royce Gracie (Non-Title Rematch)

  • Ken Shamrock: 51% (“The World’s Most Dangerous Man has the UFC rage.”)

  • Royce Gracie: 49% (“Jiu-Jitsu always finds a way. The Gi is a weapon.”)

3. The Undertaker vs. Mick Foley (Hell in a Cell)

  • The Undertaker: 74% (“The Deadman doesn’t lose twice in Chicago.”)

  • Mick Foley: 26% (“The Hardcore Legend has one more miracle in him.”)


[[ THE THREAD: CHICAGO CARNAGE PREDICTIONS ]]

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

Mad Dogg is a beast. 🐕 He doesn’t care about the Warrior’s “destiny.” He’s gonna use those Extreme Rules to turn the ring into a junkyard. And Shane vs Angle? I bet my 56k modem that Shane pulls out some “illegal” move to win. The McMahons don’t play fair in “UFC” rules.

  • Reply: Raw_Is_War_2000

    You’re dreaming. Angle is a 2-0 predator. He’s gonna snap Shane’s ankle before the pyro even clears. Also, I’m legit worried for Foley. If Taker throws him off that cage again, I’m turning off the TV. 📺😭

User: HadoukenKid

Why is no one talking about the USA Belt Finals? Savage vs DiBiase is gonna be the most “Peak 90s” match ever. Meanwhile, the real killers like Kimbo and Sapp are stuck in the mid-card. The “Mafia” is protecting the legends, I’m telling you. #SavageIsABye

BUTTERBEAN EVERY WEEK!! 🥩 If Bean beats Boss Man on June 11, I want him to jump into the Cell and punch Taker. Bean for Undisputed Champ! 👊😤


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: The Chicago Allstate Arena has added extra security for the “Extreme Rules” match. Word is Mad Dogg is bringing some ‘Australian Hardware’ to the ring. ]]

“CHICAGO CARNAGE” PREVIEW

*** [ WWF_UNDERGROUND_FORUM ] *** Topic: JUNE “CHICAGO CARNAGE” PREVIEW: SHANE-O-MAC TRAINING LEAK / THE PRINCE SPEAKS / THE BEAST’S GAUNTLET

[ ADMIN_NEIL ] – Posted: June 6, 2000 @ 11:20 PM

Yo, the Vegas dust hasn’t even settled and Chicago is already looking like a bloodbath. If you thought May was wild, June is about to break the internet (and my server). I’ve got the latest leaks on Shane’s “UFC” prep, the lowdown on this “Road Kill” guy, and the fallout from Naz’s win.


[[ LEAKED: SHANE MCMAHON TRAINING FOOTAGE ]]

I just got a 5MB .AVI clip of Shane training at a “secret location” (looks like a warehouse in Greenwich).

  • The Footage: Shane isn’t just jumping off stuff. He’s drilling double-leg takedowns and sprawl-and-brawl defense with actual shooters. He’s leaner, faster, and looks obsessed.

  • The Rumor: Word is he’s hired a “Gray-Market” catch wrestler to help him survive Kurt Angle. He knows he can’t out-wrestle an Olympian, so he’s training for “Terminal Impact”—one big, high-risk move to end it.


[[ WHO IS ROAD KILL? ]]

For everyone asking about the guy fighting the Ultimate Warrior:

  • The Profile: Road Kill isn’t just some “Australian punk.” He’s a 320lb Amish-themed brawler trained by Tazz and Perry Saturn at the House of Hardcore.

  • The Style: He’s a “Hardcore Hybrid”—he can do top-rope splashes (the “Amish Splash”) but has the raw power of a tractor.

  • The Beef: He claims the “Ultimate Warrior” name belongs to the fans, not a “90s relic.” This isn’t a wrestling match; it’s a collision.


[[ PRINCE NASEEM HITS BACK AT THE ROCK ]]

After The Rock called the boxers “cute” and told them to stop “playing crossover,” Naz went off on a UK radio show:

“The Rock talks about ‘Electrifying’? Tell him to come to the ring without his scriptwriters and see how electrifying a left hook to the liver feels. He’s fighting clowns and pies while I’m pinning 7-foot giants. He’s a movie star; I’m a fighter. If he wants to see ‘The People’s Champion,’ he can look at my reflection in his sunglasses.”


[[ STONE COLD RECOVERY STATUS ]]

Austin is currently “dark.” No interviews, no sightings.

  • The Intel: His neck took a massive hit during the McMahon match (that first Stunner counter was brutal). He’s reportedly in a private facility in Texas. Some say he’s “compromised,” but others say he’s just waiting for the SummerSlam brackets to finalize so he can hunt whoever is left standing.


[[ THE BUTTERBEAN GAUNTLET ]]

After destroying Choi, the “King of the 4-Rounders” is fighting every week. Here is the rumored schedule:

  • June 11: vs. The Big Boss Man (BMF Rules – The ultimate “Wall vs. Wall” fight)

  • June 18: vs. Viscera (Super-Heavyweight Clash)

  • June 25: vs. Mark Henry (The “World’s Strongest Man” vs. The “World’s Hardest Puncher”)


[[ THE THREAD: JUNE PREDICTIONS ]]

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

Road Kill is gonna eat the Warrior for breakfast. 🍗 Have you seen him in ECW? He’s a tank. Warrior hasn’t fought a guy like that since… ever. Also, Naz 1-0 in the WWF is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. The “Mafia” must be furious that their giant got pinned by a featherweight. 🤣

  • Reply: HulksterMania_316

    STFU. Warrior is a force of nature. Road Kill is just a guy in overalls. 🚜 And Naz got lucky. If Gonzalez didn’t gape at him like a statue, Naz would be in a body cast. Boxing is still a joke.

User: MMA_Junky_Ken

Shane fighting Angle under UFC rules is suicide. 💀 I don’t care how many “secret shooters” he trains with. Angle is a machine. If this isn’t a “work,” Shane is leaving the Allstate Arena in an ambulance.

User: BeefSlammer69

Butterbean vs Boss Man!! Meat fight!! 🥩 Bean punches him into the 90s. Boss Man is too slow. Bean is 3-0 by next week. 👊😤

WWF ARCHIVE: June 2000 “Las Vegas Lockdown” Results

The Las Vegas Lockdown has officially concluded, and the combat sports world is reeling. While the WWF prepares for the “Chicago Carnage” of Hell in a Cell, the 56k modems are melting down over the results from Nevada. The “Boxing Invasion” wasn’t just a gimmick—it was a demolition.

Here is the restored archive from June 5, 2000.


WWF ARCHIVE: June 2000 “Las Vegas Lockdown” Results

Author: Neil Kim Park (Senior Fight Historian)

1. The “Beast” Unleashed: Butterbean vs. Hongman Choi

Result: Butterbean def. Hongman Choi via K.O. (3:22)

The Analysis: In a performance that erased any doubt about boxing power, Butterbean dismantled the 7’2″ Choi in less than three minutes. Surprisingly, Bean showcased a “hybrid” style, utilizing clinch-throws and heavy leg kicks that gassed the giant early. After three massive knockdowns, Choi was unable to answer the 10-count.

  • The Fallout: Butterbean has officially entered the “June Gauntlet.” He is scheduled to fight every week this month to prove the “Sweet Science” is the supreme discipline.

2. The Miracle in the Desert: Prince Naseem vs. Giant Gonzalez

Result: Prince Naseem Hamed def. Giant Gonzalez via Pinfall (7:08)

The Analysis: This was the most “unreal” fight of the 2000s. Naz entered at a heavier 158 lbs, sacrificing speed for durability.

  • The Drama: Gonzalez nearly ended the fight early with a crushing pin, leaving the undefeated boxer visibly hurt for the first time in his career.

  • The Finish: Naz shocked the world by abandoning traditional boxing, utilizing Lucha Libre dropkicks to soften the Giant’s base. In a final, physics-defying moment, the Prince executed a high-flying Lucha finisher to pin the 7’6″ monster.


[[ CELEBRITY & ANALYST REACTION THREAD ]]

Joe Rogan (The “Truth-Seeker”):

“Did you see Naz? He was doing Hurricanranas! A world-class boxer just beat a 7-foot giant with Lucha Libre. If you told me this in April, I’d say you were high. But Butterbean? That wasn’t luck. That was a 400lb wrecking ball with wrestling fundamentals. The ‘Invaders’ are evolving, man. The WWF locker room should be terrified.”

Mike Tyson (Boxing Legend):

“Butterbean is a bad, bad man. He showed those wrestling guys that a punch is a punch, no matter how tall you are. And Naz? He’s got the heart of a lion. He went into the ‘Shadow’ and came out with the win. Boxing 2, WWF 0. Deal with it.”

The Rock (Indie Sensation):

“The Rock sees the Prince dancing. The Rock sees the Bean punching. It’s cute. But while they’re playing ‘Crossover,’ The Rock is getting ready to slap the face off a clown in June. You want ‘Electrifying’? Wait until the People’s Champion gets his hands on these ‘Invaders’ in the fall.”


[[ HELL IN A CELL: CHICAGO CARNAGE CARD ]]

Location: Allstate Arena, Chicago, IL

Matchup Stipulation The “Heat” Level
Undertaker vs. Mick Foley Hell in a Cell 10/10 (The Rematch)
Shane McMahon vs. Kurt Angle UFC Rules 8/10 (Prove-it Match)
Ken Shamrock vs. Royce Gracie Non-Title Rematch 9/10 (Grudge)
Ultimate Warrior vs. Road Kill “Battle for the Name” 7/10 (Indie vs. Legend)

Special Report: Shane McMahon has officially relinquished his mandatory challenger status to focus on Kurt Angle. Shane-O-Mac claims the Shamrock win was “pure skill,” and he’s going into the Octagon-style cage with an Olympic gold medalist to prove he is the elite “McMahon Fighter.”

User: Xx_NWO_For_Life_xX

NAZ PINNED GONZALEZ?!?! 😱 My mind is blown. I thought the ‘Mountain’ was gonna sit on him. Boxing fans are gonna be so annoying on IRC tonight lol. But for real, Shane vs Kurt Angle under UFC rules? Shane is gonna get his limbs turned into pretzels. 🥨 Angle is 2-0 and he’s a machine. RIP Shane.

  • Reply: Raw_Is_War_2000

    Shane has ‘Genetic Power’ though! He’s crazy enough to jump off the top of the cell. But yeah, Angle is scary. Also, Road Kill is an Australian punk? I saw his tapes on a LimeWire leak. He’s wild, but the Ultimate Warrior is gonna snort him like a pixie stick. 😤

User: HadoukenKid

Butterbean is a tank. He looks bigger than his 5’11 offiicial measurements, I think he is actually 6’3″ and Hang Man Choi only 6’11. You know how much these promoters inflate or deflate these numbers. Anyways🚜 Choi didn’t even know what hit him. If Bean keeps fighting every week, he’s gonna be 5-0 by July. Why isn’t he in the USA Tournament? Oh wait, I forgot—the Mafia wants Savage vs DiBiase. 🙄 They’re hiding the real killers in the Vegas cards. #FreeTheBean

User: Sk8er_Gurl_99

Undertaker vs Foley in Chicago… I’m literally shaking. 😭 Foley already lost in May, if he goes into the Cell he’s gonna end up in a wheelchair. This is the darkest timeline. I hope the ‘Deadman’ shows some mercy. 🕯️💀


[[ ADMIN_NEIL NOTE: I’m working on getting the pre-match medical scans for Foley. The rumors say he’s already fighting with 3 broken ribs. Stay tuned. ]]
