00:00Chris Jericho, Ken Shamrock tonight.
00:02That remains to be seen.
00:04You think you can tell us what to win?
00:09You think you better?
00:10Yeah.
00:11You better get ready.
00:12It's a bow to the master.
00:16And what a reaction for X-Pac.
00:19It's the first time we've seen him since he left Kane for an X-Pac's words.
00:24Kane's own good.
00:25Listen to this crowd go nuts.
00:27Hey, what's that?
00:28He's drinking.
00:31Well, X-Pac, folks, tonight gets a shot at the European Championship when he takes on sexual chocolate.
00:38Mark Henry, great action here at Reunion Arena on SmackDown.
00:42And, folks, tickets are on sale this Saturday morning for big events in New Haven,
00:47Hershey, Houston, in Dallas, plus Raw in Greensboro.
00:51Next Monday.
00:52Oh, my.
00:53Now, you know, X-Pac is a former European champion to regain the title here tonight.
00:59He's going to have to defeat Sexual Chocolate, the world's strongest man, period.
01:04And here comes Sexual Chocolate, Mark Henry, the European champion, who is set to defend this
01:10title on pay-per-view at Unforgiven in Charlotte on Sunday.
01:14But D'Lo Brown can't be too happy that this match has been signed for tonight.
01:18Mark Henry vs. X-Pac.
01:20The tournament contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the World Wrestling Federation
01:25European Championship.
01:27Making his way to the rank from Sillsby, Texas, weighing in at 400 pounds, the European champion
01:34Sexual Chocolate, Mark Henry.
01:37European Championship is on the line Sunday, but who will the champion be, Henry or X-Pac?
01:43But, folks, tonight's SmackDown is brought to you by Championship Motocross for PlayStation
01:47Game Console.
01:48So real, you'll be pulling your teeth out of the dirt.
01:51And by crispy M&Ms, the beating frenzy has begun.
01:54And by wavesmusic.com, the official music retailer of WWF.com.
01:59You know, I agree with X-Pac, he was an albatross around the neck of Kane, and he made a
02:04smart move.
02:04Whoa!
02:06What's this?
02:06Well, D'Lo Brown is on his way to the right, folks.
02:08He wasn't scheduled to be here.
02:11And as we mentioned, D'Lo must be extremely upset that the European title's on the line tonight.
02:17And Mark Henry's not waiting until Sunday at Unforgiven.
02:20D'Lo, a former WWF European champion, and you know, he's gotta be frustrated.
02:25He doesn't know who he's going to face.
02:28And it'd be a different mindset facing Sexual Chocolate as compared to X-Pac.
02:33Well, here we go now.
02:34Sexual Chocolate set to kick things off against X-Pac.
02:36And D'Lo Brown now joining us in ringside.
02:39And first question out of the box, D'Lo.
02:40You can't be happy that your opponent for Sunday, Mark Henry, is putting the title on the line
02:44three days before here on SmackDown.
02:47Well, first of all, Michael, I don't give a damn who wins this match.
02:49All I know is this.
02:50Come Sunday, D'Lo Brown's gonna fight the winner of this match.
02:53And I know damn sure for this, I'm gonna be the European champion when it's all said and done.
02:57Now, D'Lo, I don't mean to disagree with you.
02:58But I would have to speculate that you'd really like to see Mark Henry win.
03:03I mean, obviously, you've got a score to settle with it.
03:06P.S., make no mistakes about it.
03:07I damn sure want Mark Henry to win, because I damn sure want to win.
03:10Oh, my God!
03:11What power by the power lifter.
03:13Sexual Chocolate Mark Henry.
03:15Like I was saying, I damn sure want to take the belt away from him.
03:17But you know what?
03:18When it comes to me, Mark, it's not about belts.
03:20It's not about matches.
03:21It's about a friendship loss, which I've said time and time again.
03:24And brother's gonna pay the piper this time.
03:26Well, Mark Henry right now taking it to X-Pac in this European Championship match on SmackDown.
03:30Oh, don't you talk to me like that, boy.
03:32Mark Henry with that bear hug on X-Pac.
03:34And D'Lo Brown with a few words for his former friend, Mark Henry.
03:37I'm gonna have to knock a dog snide out of you, boy.
03:39Do it, do it.
03:40And X-Pac now in trouble.
03:42Don't be encouraging out here, Hayes.
03:43Why?
03:45And look at X-Pac now battling back the resilience.
03:49And X-Pac now, right hand.
03:51Look at this, reversal into the corner by the world's strongest man.
03:54But he's not the world's quickest.
03:56As X-Pac moves out of the corner now, nobody home.
04:00D'Lo, how long were you and Mark Henry friends?
04:02Over two years we were friends.
04:03Two years?
04:04Why'd you wait so long to try to get him on a diet?
04:07P.S. I know you like to indulge him.
04:08What the hell have you been smoking lately?
04:10Mark Henry's been on a seafood diet the whole time I've seen him.
04:12All the food he sees, he eats.
04:15And Mark Henry in total control here of X-Pac.
04:18European title on the line here on SmackDown.
04:21Now you see that what he's about to do is the scariest thing I've ever seen in my life.
04:25Right over the torso of X-Pac.
04:28And Mark Henry may have taken the wind right out of the former European champion, X-Pac.
04:33Don't forget, X-Pac has a lot of resiliency.
04:35And he's gonna need it.
04:37And well missed.
04:38Right there, that's the reason he should lose weight.
04:40Because he's too slow when it comes to offensive moves like this.
04:42Look at that.
04:43It was Mark Henry who was forced away from the wrestling ring because of high blood pressure.
04:48Had to lose some weight.
04:49D-Lo Brown instrumental in that weight loss for Mark Henry as X-Pac now battles back.
04:54You can see Mark's all blowed up right now.
04:57X-Pac whipped off the ropes now.
04:58Mark Henry misses with the right hand.
05:00Look at X-Pac.
05:00Oh!
05:01Flying clothesline.
05:02Knocks the big man off his feet.
05:03If you're Mark Henry right now, you've gotta worry about the feet of X-Pac and the X-Factor.
05:08And X-Pac now goes to work on the rib and then the kick to the face.
05:11Uh-oh.
05:11And here it comes.
05:12I know it's coming.
05:13Listen to this crowd.
05:15X-Pac is about to ride some horses.
05:17In Dallas!
05:18Bronco Buster!
05:19For the kick!
05:20I've been there before.
05:21I know what that feels like.
05:22Looks like you'll be facing X-Pac on Sunday at Unforgiven, D-Lo.
05:25No matter what, I'm gonna take him out.
05:27I'm the European champion.
05:28Oh!
05:29What a clothesline.
05:31Replacement referee, a scab ref.
05:33Tom Prichard working this matchup we mentioned earlier on.
05:36Don't you talk.
05:36Don't you talk to me, boy.
05:38And Mark Henry!
05:39Whoa!
05:39Bad-mouthed in D-Lo, and it cost him.
05:41Spinning heel kick to the face.
05:43See, right there is a classic example of why he can't do anything.
05:46He's out of shape.
05:47He's overweight.
05:49He's a European champion.
05:50Give him a break.
05:51Give him some respect.
05:52And the champ's in trouble, folks.
05:54The champ's in trouble.
05:55Wait a minute.
05:56The referee has counted the champion out of the ring.
05:59X-Pac wins the match.
06:00However, Mark Henry keeps the European title.
06:04A title cannot change hands on a count out.
06:07And Mark Henry's heading Unforgiven to meet D-Lo Brown this Sunday on Pay Per View.
06:12Well, I gotta say, Mark Henry, if that's the best you got come next week at Unforgiven.
06:16Wait a minute.
06:17It's gonna be a very Unforgiven day for you.
06:19Spock, you better get up.
06:20Yeah, don't wait till Sunday.
06:21Here they go.
06:22This is trouble.
06:23Oh, man.
06:23And here we go.
06:24D-Lo Brown and Mark Henry right out in front of us.
06:27And D-Lo whipped it in post.
06:31I guess he wasn't that blowed up after all.
06:33Mark Henry.
06:35You gotta admit, D-Lo asked for this.
06:36Mark Henry making a point to D-Lo Brown.
06:39It's not gonna be easy Sunday.
06:41And Unforgiven when D-Lo meets Mark Henry with the European title on the line.
06:48And speaking of Unforgiven, Luna will meet Ivory for the women's title.
06:52Here's Lillian Garcia standing by.
06:54Luna, you have waited your entire career.
