Vince McEvil

Dysfunctional Family Picnic - Vince manages to insult his daughter, alienate his friends, and send his soon-to-be-ex-wife to the hospital, all in two short hours. You've got to admire that kind of productivity.

Latino Beat

Giving Thanks For The WWF - Eddie "Latino Heat" Guerrero loses the Intercontinental Title to Billy Gunn. Then there are a bunch of matches that no one cares about, really. I'll just give you some names: Tazz, Raven, the Hollys, Test, Albert. Convinced? Molly Holly puts on a great show and unveils an awesome finishing move against Trish Stratus. Stone Cold teams with Jericho against Kane and Benoit, but the match is a no contest. And the WWF has a down-home Thanksgiving food fight.

Hunter Becomes The Hunted

Hunter Becomes The Hunted - Triple H finally starts talking, and gets huge amounts of heat. How could he go from near-face to heel in one week? Amazing. The announcers tell us that Triple H has a lot of explaining to do, and Triple H is on his way out to possibly do just that.
