A BROTHER TAKES A SISTER'S SIDE! September 25. 2003
On SMACKDOWN. Vince McMahon demanded that Stephanie McMahon come out here. Vince wanted to confront Stephanie about her terrible job on SMACKDOWN since she was given the job in March of 2002 like having Hulk Hogan walk over Vince, like having Dawn Marie marry Torrie Wilson's own father, like having The Undertaker & Kane run the asylum around SMACKDOWN and having 2 superstars fight in a parking lot match, Vince says that he made a bad investment in choosing Stephanie as the SMACKDOWN General Manager a year ago, So Vince challenged Stephanie to a match at No Mercy against him, but it wouldn't be any kind of match, it would be a mixed tag team match because Vince & Sable would take on the tag team of Stephanie & a partner, and if Stephanie & her partner lost the match, she would be fired!. Then, Shane McMahon's music hit as he seemingly had had enough of his father's mistreatment of Stephanie. Shane told Vince that even though Stephanie had done some bad things on SMACKDOWN. She was still her brother, And as a matter of fact, Vince made some horrible bad things himself too, Vince wanted him to take on Kane weeks ago, and what happened?, Kane nearly came this close to making sure Shane would never have kids, so he blames Vince for that, and now, he's on Stephanie's side, the beating by Kane made Shane open his eyes a little bit, that it's not the inmates that are running the asylum, it's not Undertaker & Kane and the other SMACKDOWN Superstars running the Asylum, it's Vince!. And if anybody is going to be Stephanie's partner, it's going to be her brother Shane!. So they accept, Vince announced that Shane is also a Co-General Manager of SMACKDOWN. So his job is on the line too!, So if Shane & Stephanie lose, both would have to quit SMACKDOWN, because for the first time in WWE History, it would be a Father vs Sister & Brother Mixed Tag Team No Holds Barred I Quit Match, and if anyone plays a role in this match, they would be fired.

He unmasked the Demon that was Kane once and for all, and he wants to put him out of action permanately, Test says that if he wants to be introduced to a Dangerous Place, then he thinks he's earned that right, and at Survivor Series, He wants to put Kane to hell and back just like he has done in the past, he's going to put Kane back to hell where he belongs, because if he wants to end Kane for good, he's going to have to do it inside Hell in A Cell and that he's going to make sure Kane has a nice ride after Test puts him there!

Stephanie was looking to win the match and keep her job as SMACKDOWN Co-General Manager!
But Vince and Sable were determined to beat Steph down, until Shane McMahon showed up with a steel chair in hand. Shane helped Stephanie up to her feet only for Shane to pick her up and bodyslam her to the mat and that gave Vince the chance to grab that led pipe and choke Stephanie unconscious until Linda McMahon who ran out threw in the towel for Stephanie causing Vince & Sable to win the match. And then after, Vince shoved Linda to the ground while he and Sable kissed with Shane McMahon evilly laughing, but the question remained, Stephanie & Shane were out as commissioner. But Shane helped the enemies, but why?

These two huge super heavyweights battled it out to determine who would be the Last Man Standing as The Undertaker took on The Big Show.
Both men did everything they could to be the Last Man Standing in the match even if it meant destroying each other!
Eventually Undertaker would put The Big Show down with a chokeslam. But it still wasn't enough as The Big Show rose to his feet.
And then Test still suffering the wounds from the injuries from what happened in the parking lot weeks ago with Kane came out to attack The Undertaker. Test & Show ganged up on Undertaker, Taker resilently tried to fight back, but the odds were too much, and just when all seemed lost for The Undertaker!
The Deadman's brother Kane came down to help The Undertaker against Big Show & Test. Kane knocked out both Test & Big Show with steel chairs, and then chokeslammed the 7'2 500 pounder to the mat.
And then when Kane went after Test. Test saw him coming and attacked Kane with his crutches, but as he went to hit Kane with the crutch again. Kane jumped at Test with a jumping clothesline sending both men crashing into the stage!.
Meanwhile, Taker & Show continued their fight with Show hitting a chokeslam on Undertaker, but Undertaker rose to his feet at the count of 7 and locked in a Triangle Choke Submission Hold on The Big Show with The Big Show passing out meaning The Undertaker had won the match!

The American Badass stood triumphant against The Big Show and made it clear that SMACKDOWN was still his yard!
After Eddie had lost the United States Title to Owen Hart, Eddie's nephew Chavo Guerrero came out to try to get him to his feet, but Chavo would attack him betraying Eddie in the process telling Eddie that he was the Only Guerrero.
And both men, Brock Lesnar & Kurt Angle would finish off the night in the infamous 60-Minute Ironman Match!.
It was a back and forth battle between the two as this rivalry would finally end it all forever!.
The match was a total barnburner like their WrestleMania encounter.
Brock would not give up and so wouldn't Kurt!

Angle was trailing in the opening minutes of the match as Lesnar had a 6-0 advantage over Kurt, but in the late moments of the match, Kurt started to gain some more falls making it a 6-5 and was determined to tie it up by applying the anklelock on Brock with 30 seconds left to go. Brock tapped out, but the clock expired
Brock Lesnar escaped No Mercy still as the WWE Champion defeating Kurt Angle in the brutal Ironman Match in the century.
As The McMahons came out to celebrate with Brock, The Undertaker fed up with the McMahon's actions came out to attack them both and chokeslam the WWE Champion Brock Lesnar making a statement saying that he wanted a title shot and he was not going to let the McMahons get in his way and was even going to punish them for what they did to Stephanie earlier in the night.
