WWF Smackdown: Tazz/Raven Interview: (9.28.00) - Tazz comes down to the ring and grabs a mic. He says he has 2 matters to discuss. One, that he and Michael Cole are the A broadcasting team, while Lawler is on the B team. He puts over that he will be hosting MTV Sunday Night HEAT. The second matter, is that he doesn't have a lot of friends, but tonight he wants to introduce one of them. He's a handsome man, and without further ado, HEEEEEEERE'S RAVEN!
Raven comes out to a new tribal sounding theme by Jim Johnston, featuring the cawing of ravens. He has a long strand of red hair dangling in front of his face as well, and has dark eyeliner on. He gives Tazz a devil horn salute and grabs the mic. He explains he's aligned himself with Tazz because Tazz feels his pain, unlike a king. Jerry Lawler then berates Tazz and Raven. Raven then answers Lawler smugly and says he and Tazz have been mocked by upper classes all of their lives for being poor and growing up on the streets. Raven's never had any of the luxuries these fans have had. What about Raven?
Y2J interrupts this promo, and addresses Raven as "Raisin". He tells Raven to shut up and that no one cares about him and challenges Tazz and Raven to a match against himself and Lawler. Raven agrees and Tazz cuts Raven off and wants the match now. They all start brawling but are soon separated.
Raven/Tazz vs. Y2J/Lawler - Raven and Tazz take control early with a lot of double team moves. Raven takes Lawler's piledriver but manages to regain control. Jericho comes in and reverses the Evenflow into the Walls of Jericho. X-Pac runs in, heel kicks Jericho, breaking the hold. Raven gets up and quickly evenflows Jericho for the pin. The Dudleyz run in and clear house as Raven, X-Pac, and Tazz leave together.
WINNER: Raven/Tazz via pinfall

WWF RAW is WAR: Raven Interference: Tazz vs. Bubbah Ray Dudley: (9.25.00) - Bubbah comes out with D-Von. Tazz grabs the microphone and challenges Bubbah to face him alone, without D-Von at ringside. Tazz says if Bubbah has D-Von at ringside, it shows he can't beat him alone. He may as well have J.R. or Lawler, or the audience members helping him. D-Von agrees to leave in order to shut Tazz up. Tazz and D-Von have a stiff back and forth match. At one point, referee Jimmy Korderas takes an inadvertent bump during a turnbuckle exchange by Tazz. Tazz takes the opportunity to leave the ring in order to berate Lawler at ringside. Tazz spits water into Lawler's face, which gets Lawler up from his seat. As this is happening, Raven runs out from the crowd and sneaks up behind Lawler. Raven stalks and then suddenly evenflows Lawler on the concrete. In the ring, Bubbah powerbombs Tazz. Raven then runs in as Tazz is down and evenflows Bubbah, doing the Crucifix afterwards. Bubbah is out, and Raven points to Tazz, signaling for Tazz to pin him as Korderas comes around. Raven then stealths himself away again into the crowd.
WINNER: Tazz via pinfall

WWF Unforgiven PPV: Raven Appearance: Tazz vs. Jerry Lawler: (9.24.00) - This is a 4 corners strap match. In order to win, one of the opponents has to touch all four turnbuckles in sequence. The match starts with a back and forth exchange, but eventually Lawler hits his trademark piledriver 3 times on Tazz in order to stun him long enough for Lawler to touch 3 turnbuckles. Lawler used the strap to put Tazz in a hangman to drag him to the last turnbuckle, but Tazz kicked the referee. Just as Lawler heads for the fourth turnbuckle to win the match and defeat Tazz once again for the second straight pay-per-view, RAVEN runs into the ring! Raven grabs Lawler and takes him out with the Evenflow DDT. Lawler is stunned and Tazz locks on the Tazzmission. The referee calls for the bell and several officials step in to break the hold. Since the ref was out, he assumed Taz touched all the corners. Jim Ross then said "What's Raven doing here? He doesn't work for this company?" Big pop for Raven's intro, especially when he did the Crucifix as he left.
WINNER: Tazz via submission
