WWE SUNDAY NIGHT HEAT AIRED: June 16, 2002

A day late and $20 short. If you happen to come across it, e-mail me and I'll give you my home address. If several people do this, I'm bound to find the right one.

How cute of wwe.com to release the full Confidential transcript AFTER I already did it. They do it to test me, I swear…

Attitude - Entertainment - WW

Opening credits are hazardous to your health.

Light that money on fire! King Of The Ring hype is in full effect! Our hosts are The Coach with D'Lo Brown at his side once again. And we're not going to waste any time…

GOLDUST vs. STEVEN RICHARDS

Steven's sporting a picture of Jazz on his t that reads: "I Miss You Sweet Thang". Goldust is still busy posing when the manic Richards strikes from behind. Right - to the corner - right, right, right. Forearm shot to the back, right, right, Goldust starts to fire back. Whip is reversed - Steven tries a dropkick but Goldust hooks the top rope and he hits nothing but air. Goldust hooks Steven's legs - catapults him into the top rope - hangs on and Steven falls back, cracking his back. Steven sells like his spine was snapped in half. Butt bump from Goldust, cover, 1, 2, kickout. Steven stands and immediately gets himself back on the offensive. A whip is reversed - Steven hits the corner and Goldust follows up with a clothesline to keep him there. Goldust makes a lariat with his finger - meaning it's time for the Roundup, which appears to be nothing more than a bulldog. Steven shoves him away though and Goldust crashes hard to the canvas. Clothesline drops him - Steven calls for a snap suplex and it hits. Float into a cover, 1, 2, kickout. Steven stomps at the back of Goldust and puts on a camel clutch. Steven drops down on the back and mocks Goldust. He tries to drop down again - but Goldust turns and lifts his knees, so Steven's been groined! They trade punches, and it appears Steven takes the worst of it. Whip - Goldust catches Steven off the ropes and hits the atomic drop. A clothesline connects, Goldust covers, 1, 2, he kicks out. Whip - powerslam, cover, 1, 2, another kick out. Goldust gets suckered into the corner where Steven's playing possum - and winds up getting taken down. Steven promps his feet up onto the ropes, 1, 2, Goldust kicks out! Whip - Goldust slides down and punches Steven in the face. Curtain Call - 1, 2, 3!

Time: 3:37

TONIGHT: Jeff Hardy goes one on one with Raven. And up in a little while, Shawn Stasiak takes on Tommy Dreamer - looking for his first win.

Last night on Confidential, Vince McMahon talks about Steve Austin.

PLANET STASIAK vs. TOMMY DREAMER

UGH. Dig one gimmick - hate both wrestlers. Call dogging this match a late birthday present to myself. Dreamer pins Stasiak with the Spicolli Driver.

Time: 4:56

On RAW, Shawn Michaels came to the ring with the nWo. The fans are blamed for Michaels disappearing - and Booker T gets kicked (literally) out of the nWo.

CRASH vs. ???

Crash has a note for D'Lo Brown like last week. D'Lo does NOT like it and throws it away. Crash meanwhile has grabbed a microphone. "Come on D'Lo Brown just look at you. You know, it's no secret you've been trying to hold me back for the last 15 years! Now you're sitting down there commentating, hiding…I'll tell ya what, why don't you get up here and get in the ring because I'll give ya more than you got right now, oh yeah!"

CRASH vs. D'LO BROWN

Big D is no longer on the key. Coach is all by himself, and with no ref this REALLY isn't a real match… Oh wait, Charles Robinson was standing nearby just incase of such an emergency and hops into the ring. We're off. D'Lo hits a fireman's carry slam right from the get go - and bodyslams him. Shaky Shaky legdrop, 1, 2, Crash kicks out. Right, right, whip - Crash hits the corner and gets a foot up as D'Lo comes in. Bulldog, and Crash makes faces that I guess are meant to mock D'Lo. Coach has an aneurysm. To the top rope he goes - tries a double axehandle but D'Lo catches him in mid move and hits the Sudden Impact. 1, 2, 3.

Time: 0:59

On RAW, Vince McMahon offers Ric Flair a chance to win the whole company - but in exchange Flair has to put up HIS half of the company in a match, winner takes all. Vince promptly knocks off another main eventer, adding to his ever growing list.

RAVEN vs. JEFF HARDY

Main event time - and not a minute too soon. Big D has returned to his key. Jeff still glows in the dark, and still has a tail. D'Lo Brown goes out on a limb and picks Brock Lesnar to win King Of The Ring. Coach groans. Lockup - hiptoss from Raven. Lockup into a bodyslam, and Raven's in control. Lockup - off the ropes - Jeff knocks Raven down with a shoulderblock. Again off the ropes, Jeff ducks a clothesline and rolls Raven up. 1, 2, kickout. Hiptoss - bodyslam - to the top rope…and he gets knocked down by Raven. Jeff manages to block the superplex, knocks Raven to the mat, and goes for the Swanton Bomb! It misses - Raven doesn't cover but instead goes to beat on Jeff. To the top - Raven faceplants Jeff with a Rocker Dropper, and covers. 1, 2, kickout. Raven drives the forearm shots in the corner - Coach declares himself in RVD's corner - whip across the ring, Raven grabs a hold of Jeff's head and hits a bulldog. Coach: "Running DDT!!!" Cover, 1, 2, kickout. Jeff tries to kick Raven, gets his foot caught - but comes around with an enzuigiri. Raven charges - but Jeff sidesteps - whips Raven and hits a double forearm to the face. Jawbreaker - Raven falls - double legdrop to the groin. Cover, 1, 2, kickout. Double forearm to the face - Jeff backs up again to the ropes - charges and Raven swats him down to the floor. Back in whip - Jeff his the corner and Raven nails a clothesline. Running kneelift sends Jeff back to the floor. Jeff gets back in - but Raven quickly clotheslines him back to the floor. Jeff grabs some camera cables and starts to choke out Raven. The referee wants a break - but doesn't ring the bell. Jeff stands on the top rope choking away, and finally the ref has enough and rings it. Jeff shoves Raven to the mat - and hits a Swanton Bomb.

Time: 4:17

Catch RAW tomorrow night. The Coach and D'Lo say good night!
