Ruthless Aggression | A WWE Universe
June 2003 | Week 4 | Sacramento, CA
Mid-way through this match, Haas irish-whipped Zack Ryder into the ropes and Shelton Benjamin held Ryder's leg to prevent him from moving. The referee saw this and started to scold Benjamin, but then Curt Hawkins tried to provide a distraction of his own to give Ryder an advantage. The referee saw that as well and ended up tossing both Benjamin and Curt Hawkins from ringside, leaving the other two partners to fight one on one. Haas was a superior wrestler to Ryder, and although Zack showed good fight, he eventually fell victim to the Back Suplex Neckbreaker and took the loss. Hopefully Hawkins & Ryder can perform better on Sunday.

Lashley was taking Apollo to task until Ted DiBiase got involved. The Million Dollar Man provided distraction after distraction, each time it looked like Lashley might be ready to put the match away, and it worked. Lashley never did land the finishing blow, and one time when he went over to confront DiBiase who was taunting him, when he returned to the ring he was caught by surprise with a Knockout Punch from Apollo that stilled him. Apollo picked up the victory in a huge statement going into the title match between the two stars at Bad Blood.

Christian was much more eager to use weapons in this match than Voodoo was. Voodoo was more focused on inflicting pain with his bare hands and being the mystical weirdo that he is. Well, no amount of magic could stop what Christian did to the champion from hurting. Christian got a table out from under the ring and climbed up on top of it, pulling Voodoo up with him. He then hit the Killswitch, planting Voodoo face first through the table as it splintered. It was a devastating attack and Voodoo was bleeding everywhere, while Christian capitalized on the moment to pin him to win the Hardcore Championship back again. After the match, a dejected looking Voodoo walked away but he was stopped by Shane McMahon. McMahon stated that in the main event at Bad Blood, five superstars would take part in a match for the Hardcore Championship: Christian, Voodoo, Rob Van Dam and two returning stars and original hardcore legends, Rhyno and Mick Foley.

This match went very long. With the submission stipulation, it meant that one of the two superstars would have to force the other to give up in order to win, and both of these guys were relentless. Each wrestler hit their finishing maneuver on more than one occasion, but couldn't force the other guy to tap out to any submission holds. The level of aggression of their moves continued to escalate, with none really able to truly get the better of the other. That was until AJ tried something new. First he DDT'd Mysterio on the ring apron, then locked in a headlock submission. However it wasn't just a headlock. Styles attempted to remove Mysterio's mask, and the fear of having his face shown forced Mysterio to tap out and give the match to AJ. This one took a lot out of both guys, so how much will they have left for Bad Blood?

This one wasn't nearly as long as their matchup just two days ago on Smackdown!. Both Rey and Styles were beaten up from that one and it showed. The winner would be whoever decided to be the most aggressive early and take control of the matchup. That ended up being Mysterio, he was the first to employ the use of a weapon, and left welts all over AJ's body with a kendo stick. To get the win, Mysterio hit a Hurracanrana on Styles, putting him through a table before pinning. Post-match Rey continued to attack Mysterio but two men dressed in black and white appeared from ringside to make the save. They beat up Mysterio and then helped AJ to his feet but said nothing, all the fans could see were the words "Bullet Club" printed on the logos on their gear.

American Alpha made extremely quick work of Hawkins and Ryder in this one, it was hard to believe it was even a championship match. They were able to set up ladders in the corners and run the two of them through them viciously. Then they each hit their finishers on Zack Ryder to take him out and Benjamin covered him for the victory. Angle and Zenk came out to celebrate with them after the match but Benjamin and Haas looked at each other then attacked both of them, hitting them each with a Grand Amplitude. Haas got on the mic and stated that they were no longer part of the American Alpha as they had just used Zenk and Angle to get the titles. They now would assume the American Alpha team name for themselves.

As has been the case in their last few matchups, Bobby Lashley was physically dominating Apollo from the opening bell. There were a couple close calls for Apollo, where Lashley could've easily put him through a table, but Ted DiBiase again took his managerial role very seriously and did whatever he could to prevent Lashley from focusing. Bobby finally had enough of this and hit The Million Dollar Man with a Dominator Suplex outside the ring to take him out of the picture. He came back in the ring and leaned Apollo up against a table in the corner, getting ready to put him through to win the match. Lashley went for the spear, but Apollo moved out of the way at the last second, sending Lashley through the table and awarding the match and title to Apollo! Lashley was badly hurt, but Apollo didn't seem satisfied with just the win. He clocked Lashley with his new IC title, then delivered a knockout punch before standing tall over him with the title raised.

Mickie James started off super aggressive against Beth, making life very difficult for the Women's Champion. She hit her with a Mick Kick but it only kept Beth down for one second, then kept pressing with a Spike DDT, but Beth still kicked out of that at two. Then completely against the run of the match, Beth hit a Glam Slam which usually ends matches but Beth kicked out of that at two as well. A bewildered Phoenix stomped around in frustration and by the time she refocused she felt a stiff Mick Kick to the head and Mickie rolled her up to win her first Women's Championship. Vince McMahon came out to congratulate Mickie, and could be seen whispering a few words to her, at the end of which Mickie had a very upset look on her face. Nobody really knew why.

Mansa had told Nakamura that their bout would be a First Blood match, so he was very surprised to see a steel cage slowly dropping around them. Mansa smiled and stated that he'd made some "demands" of "the man" to get things adjusted. The matchup between these two was very even with Nakamura's Japanese Strong Style being a great foil for Mansa's brawler fighting style. Almost in an instant though mid-way through the match, Nakamura dropped Mansa to his knees with a kick to the stomach, then hit the Kinshasa on him to knock him out cold. Nakamura looked to escape the Steel Cage from the door, but just as he was about to, R-Truth and Kofi leaped the barricade and slammed the door on his face once then again and then a third time, knocking him out. Before he came to, Mansa got up and climbed out of the same door Nakamura had tried to exit from, completely unopposed as the rest of The Nation held it open for him and he claimed the United States Championship.

In the only match of the night with no gimmick or stipulation, Randy Orton was set to face Edge for a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. The two absolutely slugged it out, with Orton landing the first major blow with a Rope Hanging DDT and then an RKO. But somehow Edge kicked out of it. Later, Orton would return the favour, kicking out of an Impaler DDT followed by a Spear as well. Edge later tried to lock Orton in a submission hold but he rolled out of it with insane agility and popped up and leveled Edge with an RKO. It looked like Edge was done but Lita grabbed his leg from outside and put it on the rope, breaking up the pinfall. Orton was livid and started arguing with Lita and going after her. Big mistake. By the time he remembered he was still in a match with a guy who calls himself the Ultimate Opportunist, he was on the receiving end of a Spear from a recovered Edge and staring in the face of defeat as the champ retained his title.

Had the belt and lost it just as quick. I actually think the hardcore belt is the most fun gimmick/storyline we got so far. Good stuff
