“Bossman…take the keys.”
We’re in uncharted territory here on this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, as for only the 2nd time ever, we take a look back at an episode of WWF Sunday Night HEAT! This episode of Heat is from May 9th, 1999, which just so happens to be the night before the highest rated episode of WWF RAW is WAR ever. Surely, all of the people that tuned in for RAW were just so fired up from this episode of Heat, so what could have possibly been going on?!
Tonight, we’re going to hear from The Rock! That’s all you need in 1999. The Rock & Stone Cold were both thrown off the stage by the Corporate Ministry’s Undertaker & Triple H on the last episode of RAW, which lead to The Rock breaking his arm. He’ll be here tonight to address that, after we get through all of the real stars of the WWF making appearances first.
D-Generation X have been going through it, as not only has Triple H & Chyna left the group to join the Corporation, now the Corporate Ministry, but Billy Gunn has also turned his back on long-time partners X-Pac & Road Dogg. Kane & X-Pac are the current WWF Tag Team Champions, and Kane is going to do anything he can to get his hands on Billy Gunn. All night.
The Union is here to get revenge on the Corporate Ministry. Ken Shamrock, Big Show, Test & Mankind do what they can to stop the likes of Big Bossman, Viscera, and Mideon from attacking any more people. Big Show even has a match tonight against Mideon!
We also can’t forget whatever is going on with Al Snow. Hardcore Holly was pinned by Al Snow, who was holding Head, to win the WWF Hardcore Championship. Al is convinced that Head is the champion, so Hardcore Holly has gone to the “Hardcore Championship Committee” to sanction a match between Al Snow & Head on this show. Yes, that is a match.
Also on the card, Triple H takes on The Road Dogg, Val Venis faces Billy Gunn, and in the main event, Meat with PMS (Terri Runnels & Jacqueline) battles rival Droz with Prince Albert!
All of that, and so much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!
