| VINTAGE COLLECTION - RAW APRIL 17TH 2000
|
This week's episode of Vintage Collection included a clip from Raw on April 17th 2000 where Chris Jericho challenged Triple H for the World Heavyweight Title, with both Shane and Stephanie in Triple H's corner and at ringside for the match. I've done some captures and also uploaded the video of the segment. :)
     The World Wrestling Federation Championship was on the line early-on this week on RAW when Chris Jericho challenged Triple H for the title. Prior to the match, Y2J took over where he left off last week, making fun of Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley. Also before the match got under way, Jericho told Triple H that the Acolytes would be in his corner. In Triple H's corner was his wife and her brother, Shane. The champ's focus seemed to be elsewhere in the early going, as Jericho assaulted Triple H - several times nearly walking away with the Championship. Finally when it appeared as though Jericho would have Hunter's number, the assigned referee Mike Chioda was knocked out. Senior referee Earl Hebner then came down and finished the officiating duties. Hebner and Triple H got into a push and shove, Jericho then took advantage and hit Triple H with a moonsault before Hebner did a fast count allowing Jericho to score the pinfall and capture the championship.
After the commercial break, Triple H, Stephanie and Shane physically brought Earl Hebner into the ring. Triple H also brought in the originally assigned referee, Mike Chioda. Triple H then asked for Chioda's professional opinion. Chioda responded, saying that Hebner screwed Triple H. Hebner then said that he would reverse the decision if Triple H promised never to lay another hand on him as long as he was a WWF referee. As soon as Triple H was given the Championship back he told Hebner that he was fired, then Triple H and Shane assaulted Hebner before the rest of the referees came to the ring and broke it up.
