(more pics below)

This is the Owen Hart tribute show. The previous night Owen Hart fell to his death at Over the Edge in a botched stunt as the Blue Blazer. Earlier this night “Sexual Chocolate” Mark Henry has read a poem dedicated to Owen and Faarooq said that when he leaves his family at home, the locker room is his family and they all loved Owen Hart.

Now D’Lo Brown and Mark Henry are accompanied by Ivory. She, a “manager” only, is in much better shape than Bradshaw, the “athlete”, who’s wearing his spare tires shamelessly. Faarooq and Henry start. Faarooq tries to take his knee, but concedes with a shoulderblock. Henry catches him with a powerslam and tags D’Lo. Faarooq with a quick jawbreaker and he also tags out. Bradshaw with the big boot. He sends D’Lo to the floor, where Faarooq rams him into the steps. Back in, Bradshaw gets a russian legsweep. Faarooq is back, but gets caught with a facebuster and a legdrop. Faarooq comes back with a DDT. Bradshaw tags in and hits a flying shoulder tackle for 2. Faarooq is in, but D’Lo connects with a spinning heel kick. Both men tag out. Mark Henry clotheslines the hell out of the Acolytes until the 2 on 1 odds take affect. D’Lo makes a blind tag, which ends up being meaningless when the Acolytes deliver a double neckbreaker. Henry makes the save at 2. Bradshaw accidentally boots Faarooq, leading to a D’Lo rollup.
