The Gross Pat Patterson “Skid Mark” Stink Face! WWF RAW Review 5/8/2000
This week on Tales from the Attitude Era, Rob Pasbani and former WWF writer Tommy Blacha break down the chaotic May 8, 2000 “kitchen sink” episode of RAW is WAR! With The Rock away filming The Mummy Returns, the McMahon-Helmsley regime turns its full attention to the new top babyface, Chris Jericho.
Vince McMahon guarantees Jericho will lose his Intercontinental Championship and forces him to run a gauntlet against Kurt Angle, The Big Show, and Chris Benoit. The night culminates in a main event screwjob orchestrated by special referee Triple H.
We also dive into:
– Triple H officially challenging The Rock to a 60-Minute Iron Man Match at Judgment Day.
– One of the most disgusting and iconic comedy moments in WWF history: Pat Patterson giving Rikishi a “skid mark” stink face.
– Gerald Brisco getting his receipt from The Dudley Boyz in a hilarious 3-on-2 Tables Match.
– Edge & Christian hiring the APA for protection, only for it to immediately backfire.
– The formation of a new babyface alliance to combat the McMahon-Helmsley regime.
Join us as we review an episode that perfectly showcases the Attitude Era’s “smoke and mirrors” booking, blending high-stakes drama with unforgettable comedy.
