Rick Rude with Bobby Heenan defeats MVP Via Rude Awkening @ 13:12
{We get a solid match here. MVP is making his debut here but he looks to be a little slower in the get go here. Rude is jacked to the gills and with Bobby Heenan in his corner this is just too much. This is where we see MJF make an appearance during the match. He is rooting on Rude as MVP gets distracted by this and it stops his offense which leads to Rude just beating the hell out of him. MVP is able to turn the tide around the 9 minute mark but that is when Heenan gets involved which leads to MVP dropping him with a right hand! Heenan takes a hard bump as MVP turns around to MJF throwing salt in the eyes of MVP! Rick Rude finishes off MVP with The Rude Awakening! 1.....2....3!! Rick Rude plays up the crowd as he is talking to the camera telling Piper that at Sacrifice he is going to put him away. MJF has a smirk on his face as we head to commercial!}
