Here are all the results from the WWF event from thye FleetCenter in Boston, Massachusetts on April 9, 2001.


The event began with some dark matches. Of the matches, we have coverage of two notables.
The Haas Brothers 
vs. Scott Vick & Steve Bradley
One Fall Tag-Team Contest
This match was won via pinfall by local talent "Super Bad" Steve Bradley, who once competed in an event in Danvers a few years back. Bradley completed the task with a swinging neck breaker/DDT Combo.
WINNERS : STEVE BRADLEY AND SCOTT VICK

American Dragon vs. Jerry Lynn
One Fall; Singles Contest
Jerry Lynn, a former ECW star, got the upper hand and the win in this match. The martial arts champion scored a tornado DDT to lock in a pinfall on the American Dragon.
WINNER : JERRY LYNN


Grandmaster Sexxay and 
Steve Blackman vs. Kaientai
One Fall; Tag Team Contest
Kaientai got the crowd into the event with their "INDEED" speech, but it would be The team of "Too Stupid" (as Taka reffered to the team of Grandmaster and Blackman) who would win the first match of the Jakked/Metal tapings. The team celebrated with a "Too Cool Dance Session", leaving us to say "Get Better Scotty 2Hotty", Blackman is a horrible dancer.
WINNER : GRANDMASTER SEXXAY AND STEVE BLACKMAN

Haku vs. Deuce
One Fall, Singles Contest
Haku was the dominant wrestler (without surprise) as he Tongan Death Gripped his way into a submission victory.
WINNER : HAKU

Perry Saturn & Dean Malenko vs. 
Alex Arion & Lo-Ki
One Fall, Tag Team Contest
Another obvious victory in order here for the Radicalz. Perry hit a fisherman's neckbreaker on former EWA U.S. Champ, Alex Arion for the 1-2-3!
WINNERS : PERRY SATURN AND DEAN MALENKO

K-Kwik vs. Johnny Swinger
One Fall, Singles Contest
If I was a betting man, I'd make millions on Jakked/Metal. Johnny Swinger was not my pick (as I hope he wouldn't be yours either) and K-Kwik ended this contest by reversing a nekcbreaker and hitting a powerbomb for the  pinnfall. 
WINNER : K-KWIK


The show starts with a recap of Vince and Linda's trouble..even before the WWF title. 

The WWF titles play then we're taken back to earlier today and Mr. McMahon's looking at Bruin's jersey in a display case. Jim Ross walks in and McMahon tells him to take it easy. Vince asks what the hell happened to him. Did he get in a car accident or fall down a flight of steps? Vince says he'll accept partial responibility. Vince says Ross probably isn't in the right frame of mind to work tonight. Vince says before Ross goes to work tonight, they need to have a little discussion in his office. McMahon doesn't want JR going out there and making deragatory comments about McMahon or Austin. JR walks off.

Kurt Angle vs. Kane (Hardcore Champion)
Hardcore Chapionship Match
This match originally started out as a challenege by Angle (who has reminded us so many times about Boston's less than winning ways) to any of the WWF champions. Kane responded and the match began. Soon after, The Big Show made his presence felt with some "Hardcore Interference". The former hardcore champ was met up by the Undertaker. Taker goes to work on Show and Kane and Taker double team. Angle gets up and tries to join a triple team, but Kane takes Angle out. Double chokeslam by Kane and Taker. Kane covers and gets the win.
WINNER AND STILL CHAMPION : KANE

Jim Ross is shown in Vince McMahon's office. McMahon says he brought JR in to get him in the right frame of mind. McMahon says he wants nothing but the best for WWF fans. He wants JR to go out there with a clear conscious. To get Ross in the right frame of mind, he invites Steve Austin to join them. Austin asks Ross if he minds. McMahon says this isn't exactly what it looks like. They're here to entertain him. McMahon says in a few minutes, they're going to show some movies.
McMahon, Ross and Austin are in McMahon's office and he puts in the tape entitled "The Life and Times of JR."

First clip shown is from last Thursday's Smackdown. They end up showing most of the interview to the displeasure of the live crowd.

15 minutes later, back to the dressing room. McMahon asks JR what he thought of the film? Double thumbs up. Austin says he now realizes how weak and how pathetic Ross is. Austin says he has nothing else to say to Ross and he gest up and leaves. McMahon asks Ross if he's in the right frame of mind to go to work tonight. JR says yep. Ross says he's also talked to his attorney. Ross says he has a helluva lawsuit if he chooses to go that way. Ross says he's never gone that way. Ross says his other option is to quit tonight. If Ross quits tonight, he's going to work tomorrow for Shane down at WCW. Ross says he has a job to do and he's going to go do it.

The Oklahoma Fight Song plays and Jim Ross makes his way to join Paul Heyman at the broadcast position.

(Light Heavyweight Champion) Crash Holly 
vs. Rhyno
One Fall, Non-Title Contest
Crash hits an inside cradle right off the bat for a two count. Spinebuster by Rhyno. Molly slaps Ryno and Crash hits a body scissors roll up for two. Belly-to-belly suplex by Rhyno and he gets another two count. Clothesline by Crash followed by an attempted sunset flip. Rhyno gets out and Crash hits a crossbody for two. Back elbow by Rhyno then he misses a clothesline, but he hits the gore for the three count. After the match, Molly gets on Rhyno's back, but Rhyno throws her off. Rhyno gets ready for the Gore, but Hardcore Holly comes down to make the save.
WINNER : RHYNO
Vince is shown backstage with Stephanie. Vince says he has a feeling this is going to be an unusual night. Steph tells him not to worry about JR and especially JR's comments about Shane and WCW. Vince says he has to worry because this is his business. Vince says he don't know what Shane's going to do. Steph says Shane is under contract, he don't have to worry. Vince says he don't have Shane under contract. He has JR under contract, but not JR. On a monitor behind them, Steph notices Linda McMahon arriving at the building.

Linda is shown walking in the back and she runs into The Acolytes they make small talk and she walks into Chyna's photo shoot. They hug and Linda says she has business to take care of.

Michael Cole interviews Spike Dudley. Spike says it was an honor and a privelege to be in the same ring as Lita. X-Factor comes in and starts making fun of Spike. X-Pac says he's hear of laying down for women before, but never in the ring. Spike says he can fight his own fights and he can take his own ass kickings. Albert throws Spike into the chain link fence. X-Pac and Credible talk more crap and walk away.

Jonathan Coachman walks into William Regal's office. Regal tells him to straighten up and have some pride. Regal says he's concerned about this newfound respect between Jericho and Benoit. Tonight, we'll see the next great classic between Jericho and Benoit and Coachman gets to tell them they'll be fighting tonight.

Undertaker vs. Big Show
One Fall, Singles Contest
This match came about as a challenge after the hardcore bout. The match started off with the Big Show missing a double ax handle. Then the fight breaks out. Bear hug by Show then he puts Taker in the corner. Taker gets his boot up on teh charge. Taker hits a series of right hands and backs Show into the corner. Right hands by Taker. Taker gets a whip reversed and Show hits a splash. Show hits a couple knees to Taker's midsection then he corner mounts. Taker hits the Last Ride from the middle turnbuckle and gets the three count.
WINNER : UNDERTAKER

The old school Wrestlemania Theme hits and Linda McMahon comes out. Linda says thank you to all the fans. She came here tonight because she wanted to make three announcements. One, as you can see and like she said last week, she has fully recovered and is of sound body and mind and she has resumed all her responsibilities as CEO of the World Wrestling Federation. Secondly, she wants to again say how proud she is of her son Shane who did what he felt he had to do at Wrestlemania. Linda says she wants Shane to know she wishes him all the luck in the world and success with his new acquisition. Her third announcement doesn't really involve Shane and her, but it does involve her husband, Vincent K. McMahon. Vince being the one who always likes to do things in public fashion, she'd like to request his presence to join her in this very ring.

Vince obliges as No Chance hits and he walks confidently towards the ring. Vince tries to give her a hug, but Linda pushes him away. Vince looks for a microphone. He finally gets one and he says he knows why she is here. Quite frankly, he admires her for it. She came out here to apologize. She came out here, that's her announcement, she came out here to apologize for what she did at Wrestlemania. She's going to apologize to him for kicking him in the gonads. 

Linda fires back by saying, "Vince, shut up" She's the one who's going to do the talking in this ring tonight. Maybe he'll recall the last time they had a public chat in the ring. She remembers, it was last December in Madison Square Garden. In case he don't remember, Linda reminds him with the video of Vince wanting a divorce 

Vince says he didn't mean it. He was just a little angry that night.

Linda says he wasn't just angry, he was furious. He made her ill. She was stunned, but she guesses anyone would be when that comes out of the blue after 34 years of marriage. He did make her ill and sick, but not sick enough to be put in a sanitarium and medicated heavily. For the next few months, he kept saying, he knows she can hear him and he would do thing after thing. Linda reminds him with video of things Vince and Trish did over the last three months.

Linda says all of that finally led to the match at Wrestlemania. She has to tell him, a lot of wrongs where righted at Wrestlemania. Trish kept the doctors away so Linda wasn't so heavily medicated. Trish even got to slap him. Mick Foley pumeled him in the corner and Linda even got a kick in. Shane finished it off with a kick to the trash can. Linda says a lot of people would think he has revenge enough, but she's not one of those people.

Vince says he'll give her what she wants. He'll do this because he's been the one to sacrifice in this relationship. What she wants is.....he'll give it to her. Publicly. He apologizes. He says he'll go one step further. Just like it was 34 years ago when he asked her to make the right decision then and she did, all he's asking for is for her to make the right decision now. Vince is on his knees. He tells Linda to read his lips. He humbily, truely aplogizes for his actions. 

Linda puts a hand on his shoulders and says she didn't come her for an apology. She tells him to read her lips. She wants a divorce. 

The ending of this segment brought little hope for the possible return of Shawn Michaels.

Lita catches Linda in the parking lot and she says that was awesome what she did out there. Truly inspiring. Linda gets in the limo and Vince runs up and tries to talk to her, but the limo pulls away. McMahon turns around and sees Lita standing there. McMahon asks about Lita saying she was inspired. Lita tries to talk, but McMahon tells her to shut up. McMahon says what's inspiring is seeing Lita tonight in a match against Stephanie. He tells her to bring the Hardy Boyz as well for this is a six man match with Steve Austin and Triple H.

Albert comes from the outside and hits the Baldo Bomb on Buh-Buh through the table.


Vince is shown in his locker room packing up. Triple H asks if this tag match is a good idea. Vince tells him and Steph not to be so selfish all the time. He's got faimly problems to straighten out.

Team Extreme is in their locker room and Matt's trying to figure out how Lita got them into this situation. Matt asks Jeff what he thinks. Jeff says he loves it. He should go thank Vince right now. Matt should realize what kind of opportunity this is. Austin and Triple H aren't a team, like them. They aren't tight, like the Hardyz. Jeff says tonight, they go out ther and take on Austin, Triple H, and Steph and tonight, they go out there and beat Austin, Triple H,and Stephanie.
