Notes:

This card was just to re-establish the heel/face lines in the WWF, with Booker, RVD, Edge & Christian, Hardcore Holly, Scotty 2 Hotty, TAKA, Regal, and Tajiri going heel. Booker went heel before the PPV to build interest in the match, as did RVD, E&C, Holly, Hotty, and TAKA. But Regal and Tajiri turned against X-Pac and Triple H to allow Benoit (who came back WAYYYY before he really will), Jericho, Malenko, and Saturn to get the win. I wanted to get Albert the hell away from my rings, so I had RVD win the IC title and retire him.
I NEEDED the APA to break up. Umm...let's say...Bradshaw turned against Faarooq after the match, saying Faarooq cheats too much at cards or something. Faarooq becomes face and Bradshaw goes heel. X-Pac goes face, too, because he's friends with HHH, so the fans finally accept the face turn.
