## Details

* Mankind demands for a title match tonight, Shane comes out and says he cant do that so Mankind hits him with a chair as he threatens to injure Shane's leg, Mankind is desperate to get the belt before Taker does, Shane says that they're friends and they'll take down Taker together, Mankind sayys that Rock won't take down Taker, Mankind will, if beating up Shane is what he has to do then so be it. Vince comes out and says that he'll only get a title shot if he can beat Shane in a normal match right now
* Vince is interviewed backstage on what he thinks about the actions of Taker last week, Vince swallows his pride and formally apologizes to every member of the roster, he declares war against Taker and his band of screwups that didn't have anything to do on WWF, he says that he's disappointed in The Big Show and how he had a full career with The Corporation and he wasted all of it, he deeply apologizes to Mankind but says he won't allow him to win that title, if there's anyone that's gonna end Taker, IT'S THE CORPORATE LEADER THE ROCK. Vince also says that MOD better give Cornette back
* Owen talks about his loss last night and how he disappointed so many people, he calls Kurt Angle an actual really good professional wrestler and he's set to be the future, it's a shame he's too cocky to realize that this attitude is hurting his potential. Out comes British Bulldog with a new look and a new theme
* Owen and Bulldog have a really good match, unbeknowest to the people at the time, this would be Owen's last RAW match
* A gong interrupts Kaientai vs LOD's match as out comes all of MOD and they take out both of them kicking out LOD from their group, Jim Cornette comes out with no music, he gets in the ring and stands in the middle and with a bleak voice and dead eyes announces HE HAS SIGNED A DEAL, UNDERTAKER IS THE NEW CO-OWNER AND HE'S RESIGNING IMMEDIATLY
* Vince is going crazy backstage that Taker is now the co-owner and calls Shane to his offices, due to Shane saving Vince last night and making sure Shawn was retired and the continous threat that MOD is becoming, Vince wants to give Shane the thing he wants the most, Shane can assemble a team of how many people he wants to beat down and put an end to Ministry of Darkness, as soon as Vince is off screen, Shane screams "YES."
* Out comes Billy Gunn who announces that a big tag team tournament will start taking place as he vacates the tag titles when out comes ROAD DOGG who tells Billy Gunn that if Cornette is gone...THEN THE RULE IS ALSO GONE, NEW AGE OUTLAWS CAN CONTINUE TEAMING, Dogg celebrates with Gunn when Gunn stops, looks at Dogg AND TELLS HIM TO SUCK IT, GUNN FAMOUSSERS DOGG, Gunn drops the tag titles right on Dogg as the tag title tournament begins
* APA say that if they win the tag titles they immediatly get a 500 000 dollar bonus so they might not be poor anymore
* What's left of The Union comes out to address their situation, Henry says to Angle that they need to find a new leader now that Cornette and Severn have left, Angle says "the greatest professional wrestler in the world...needs to go to greener pastures, I'm sorry Henry, I honestly never really liked you that much." ANGLE ANGLE SLAMS HENRY, THE UNION IS COMPLETELY DONE IN JUST 2 DAYS, out comes Dick Togo for his match that is for both titles as Angle introduced himself as the eurocontinental champion
* BWO Wolves say one of them got the win so that means that they now get all of the title shots, Vince asks who the fuck they think they are, but then he gets an idea "Only Al Snow won the match, so Al Snow, you can get a WWF title match....IF you LEAVE BLUE WORLD ORDER, you got until tonight to make your choice."
* Al leaves the ring after his loss and shakes hands with Vince on the stage as Al has made his choice
* The main event is the single most watched segment of RAW history drawing 13.9 million viewers to it, The Corporation were beating down Mankind making sure he wouldn't win WHEN GLASS SHATTER AND OUT COMES AUSTIN DEALING CHAIRSHOTS TO ANYONE WHO SHOWS UP, STUNNER TO VINCE, HE PUTS MANKIND ON TOP OF THE ROCK, MANKIND HAS DONE IT, MANKIND HAS DONE IT, MANKIND IS WWF CHAMPION
