Transcript

00:00Well, we are back live here, ladies and gentlemen,

00:02and another first for the World Wrestling Federation.

00:05There you see Evie, along with Terry Reynolds.

00:09You are about to see the first-ever

00:11holiday topless top rope match.

00:14When Stephanie and Triple H talked about

00:16having a raw Christmas, they weren't kidding.

00:18This has been holiday hell, in my estimation.

00:22It's hard to imagine what else is gonna happen here tonight

00:24that we haven't already seen, but...

00:26When the Valvenus and Hardcore Holly

00:28have a special one-on-one match-up.

00:31The match continues until one of these men's representatives

00:35will be represented by Evie,

00:38Hardcore Holly represented by Terry,

00:40and the first-ever holiday topless top rope match

00:44is very simple.

00:46When either man is thrown over the top rope

00:48and lands on the floor,

00:49then the guy that lands on the floor

00:51is the winner of the match.

00:53The following contest is the first-ever

00:55holiday topless top rope match.

00:58In the ring, weighing in at 244 pounds,

01:03from Las Vegas, Nevada,

01:05the World Wrestling Federation

01:07European Champion, Val Venis!

01:12Let's get this straight.

01:14If Val Venis goes Hardcore Holly over the top rope

01:16and lands on the floor,

01:18then the guy that lands is the representative,

01:20then who's gonna win?

01:21If Val Venis goes Hardcore Holly over the top rope

01:24and Hardcore is, will both be on the floor,

01:26then Hardcore's representative, Terry,

01:29has got to take off an article of clothing.

01:31That's gonna be so cool.

01:32And the match continues until one of these ladies

01:35has been topless.

01:36That's a raw Christmas.

01:40The winner of this match will meet

01:41the Intercontinental Champion

01:42Thursday night...

01:43Hello, ladies.

01:45...on SmackDown.

01:46So it's a high-stakes match for these men,

01:48even higher, I would assume, for the ladies.

01:50You women are a lot like Christmas trees.

01:55Heh, heh, heh.

01:56You know, you smell good.

02:03You're pretty to look at.

02:08But you never really feel special

02:12until I plug it in and light you up.

02:16And Merry Christmas to you, Val.

02:18I didn't leave much to the imagination.

02:23Here's Holly's super heavyweight...

02:25His opponent and challenger,

02:28being accompanied by Brad,

02:31weighing in at 239 pounds,

02:33from Mobile, Alabama,

02:36Hardcore Holly!

02:39Holly's not only an opponent,

02:40he's also a challenger.

02:44Hardcore Holly and Val Venis.

02:45Now, remember, Val Venis is gonna be

02:46represented by Evie.

02:48Hardcore Holly represented by Terry.

02:50This is their first-ever holiday topless,

02:52off-road match.

02:54The winner of this match

02:55will meet the Intercontinental Champion,

02:57Chris Jericho, this Thursday night

02:59on SmackDown from Reunion Arena in Dallas.

03:03Uh-oh.

03:04Who is this?

03:05I think we know.

03:08My goodness.

03:09Have we seen enough of the Reunion Arena?

03:12Have we seen enough of Mr. McMahon?

03:16Or where is Mr. Helmsley?

03:18Watch it, JR.

03:19Ladies and gentlemen,

03:23welcome to the first-ever

03:26holiday topless,

03:29top-rope match.

03:34Let the games begin.

03:38Here we go again.

03:39No pinfalls in this matchup.

03:41Every time an athlete is thrown

03:43over the top rope and lands on the floor,

03:45his representative will take off

03:47one article of clothing.

03:49The winner of this matchup

03:50will meet the Intercontinental Champion

03:52Thursday night on SmackDown.

03:53That's the story.

03:55We've never seen one of these matches.

03:56Folks are seeing it as we are

03:58for the very first time.

04:00And it's more of the creative matchmaking

04:03by Mr. and Mrs. Helmsley.

04:06Watch out, watch out, watch out.

04:12I think all Triple H is trying to do here,

04:14folks, at my estimation.

04:15Don't incriminate you, Michael Hayes.

04:17All Triple H is trying to do here

04:18is gain favor for the male audience.

04:21Well, it looks like it's working, JR.

04:22Well, it's working for you.

04:23You've yet hardly said a word here.

04:25Let's not wait for somebody to go over the top rope.

04:27My god, King will be having a stroke by now.

04:29Okay, here we go.

04:31And Hardcore Holly and Val Venus

04:33both over the top rope.

04:35Both over the top, they won't land on the floor.

04:38Gentlemen have hit the floor, ladies start removing Terry.

04:47Shoes are not considered clothing.

04:51Good idea.

04:55So, let's get to taking off the dresses.

04:58Yeah.

05:00He likes to make up the rules as he goes along here.

05:03Come on, we don't have all day.

05:05I'm sure if you just grab the bottom and pull, it will come off over your head.

05:10That's true, you know.

05:11Go!

05:13This is not right.

05:14Oh, you're not enjoying this?

05:16Your jobs are on the line.

05:23Do it or be fired is what he's trying to say, ladies.

05:25Looks like Triple H is winning over the male population here, JR.

05:33Yeah, the male demographics have just grown.

05:35I am a god among men, continue.

05:39Well, the match is continuing here.

05:41And remember, the match continues until one of these gentlemen, one of these athletes,

05:46either hardcore or vows, representative, has to remove her top.

05:50Topless.

05:51And that's pretty well it.

05:54And the winner, if anybody cares, is going to meet the Intercontinental Champion,

05:58Kyle Sinano Smackdown.

06:02Hardcore Holly, the textbook dropkick right in the face of Val Venis.

06:06Roll over the top, Bob.

06:07Remember, the Rock and Al Snow in a Brahma bull rope match here

06:12has been signed by the McMahon-Helmsley era.

06:18And Holly looking for a roll-up, which is not going to get Val over the top rope.

06:23Putting the pace ass quick in here.

06:24And Val up.

06:25And he...

06:26Uh-oh.

06:27And Holly going underneath the rope.

06:29I mean, he's still in it.

06:31And Val Venis, his feet have not touched the floor.

06:37Val up the front row.

06:39I think the match is over.

06:41There you have it.

06:43Val Venis has touched the floor.

06:46Terry, you are excused.

06:49B.B., it seems that you only have one article of clothing in which to remove.

07:01B.B., don't anger me now.

07:05Let those puppies free.

07:08I will say it again.

07:09Your job is on the line.

07:14Oh, let him free.

07:17Might want to put the women and children to bed, folks.

07:19No time like the present.

07:24What is he doing?

07:26Oh, come on.

07:27Oh, my God.

07:28He's going to get it.

07:29He's going to get it.

07:30He's going to get it.

07:31He's going to get it.

07:32He's going to get it.

07:33He's going to get it.

07:34He's going to get it.

07:35He's going to get it.

07:36Oh, my God.

07:37He's got her bra.

07:39That is unbelievable.

07:41Come on, Bill Tribble H.

07:42You have got to be kidding me.

07:45Tribble H is the only one that can see.

07:48That's a ripoff.

07:52I'll tell you what.

07:54He's repulsive.

07:55Hemsley is repulsive.

07:57And Harper Holly is the winner.

08:01Hey, I will let you in on it.

08:03That was magnificent.

08:08And what's that old Christmas carol?

08:12Do you see what I see?

08:14No, you don't.

08:15Because you're a bunch of idiots.

08:17And I'm the only one that gets the show.

08:20Well, do you hear what I hear?

08:21You're an ass.

08:22You're a jackass, Hemsley.

08:24Watch it, J.R.

08:25Well, folks, I'll tell you what.

08:26The Rock's going to take on Al Snow tonight.
