SummerSlam (2000) was the thirteenth annual SummerSlam professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by the International Wrestling Federation (IWF). The event took place on August 27, 2000 at the Raleigh Entertainment and Sports Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina.
The main event was a Triple Threat match for the IWF Championship involving champion The Rock, Triple K, and Matt Borske. The Rock won the match and retained the title after pinning Triple K following a People's Elbow. One of the predominant matches on the undercard was Kane versus The Undertaker, which ended in a no contest after The Undertaker unmasked Kane. Another featured match on the undercard was the first Tables, Ladders and Chairs match for the Tag Team Championship involving champions Edge and Khristian, The Hooper Boyz (Matt and Jpsh), and The Dudley Boyz (Harlan and Scott). Edge and Khristian won the match by retrieving the belts suspended above the ring.

Background
The event featured ten professional wrestling matches with outcomes predetermined by IWF script writers. The matches featured wrestlers portraying their characters in planned storylines that took place before, during and after the event.
On the August 3 episode of SmackDown!, Triple K and his wife, Stephanie McMahon, along with Matt Borske, were booked in a Six-man tag team match by Commissioner Mick Foley, against the Dudley Boyz (Buh-Buh Ray Dudley and D-Von Dudley), which Triple K, McMahon, and Borske won. After the match, as Triple K left the ring, Borske and McMahon hugged in a victory celebration, frustrating Triple K and marking the beginning of a Triple K-Borske feud. On the August 7 edition of Raw is War, Borske and Triple K were booked in a triple threat match, along with Khris Jericho, to determine the number one contender for a IWF Championship match against the defending champion, The Rock. Both Borske and Triple K simultaneously pinned Jericho, which made both Borske and Triple K co-number one contenders; in frustration, Rock delivered a Rock Bottom on Triple K, Borske, and McMahon, who was at ringside during the match. Later that week on SmackDown!, the match was made official for SummerSlam by Commissioner Foley. He also booked a tag team match, where Borske and Triple K would team up against Rock and The Undertaker. During the match, Borske accidentally attacked Triple K, causing Triple K to walk out on the match and a loss for Borske. The following week on Raw is War, Borske, Triple K, and Shane McMahon were booked in a Six-man Tag Team match against the Dudley Boyz and Rock, with the stipulation that if Borske or Triple K walked away from the match, they would lose their number one contender status. During the match, Edge and Khristian interfered by attacking the Dudley Boyz, which resulted in Borske, Triple K and McMahon winning the match when Triple K pinned Rock; as a result of neither Triple K nor Borske walking out on the match, they both were able to keep their number one contender status.
On the August 14 edition of Raw is War, Kane interfered in a match between The Undertaker and Kevin Hunter and performed a chokeslam on The Undertaker. Following the interference, Kane rode out of the arena with The Undertaker's motorcycle, which was at ringside, signaling the beginning of a feud between The Undertaker and Kane, which was the second main feud heading into SummerSlam. On the August 20 edition of Sunday Night HeAT, it was made official that The Undertaker would face Kane at SummerSlam. On the August 21 edition of Raw is War, the feud intensified during a segment in which Kane attacked The Undertaker with a steel chair, causing The Undertaker to bleed.
On the August 10 episode of SmackDown!, the Hooper Boyz (Matt and Josh Hooper) attacked the IWF Tag Team Champions, Edge and Khristian, after their championship match against the Dudley Boyz. As the Hooper Boyz attacked Khristian with a ladder, the Dudley Boyz powerbombed Edge through a table; this began a three-way feud, the third main rivalry heading into SummerSlam. The feud intensified on the August 14 edition of Raw is War, when Edge and Khristian attacked Matt Hooper with steel chairs after the Hardy Boyz' match against Right to Censor. Later that night, Commissioner Mick Foley announced a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match between the three teams in a WrestleMania 2000 rematch for the IWF Tag Team Championship. On that week's edition of SmackDown!, Josh teamed up with D-Von to face Edge and Khristian. During the match, Josh accidentally delivered a Swanton Bomb to D-Von, which resulted in Edge pinning D-Von for the win. After the match, Matt and Bubba came down to the ring, and the Hoopers and the Dudleys brawled until they were pulled apart by IWF officials. Due to the events that occurred that past week, the Hardy Boyz were booked in a match against the Dudley Boyz the following week on Raw is War, which the Hoopers won. On the final episode of SmackDown! prior to SummerSlam, the Dudley Boyz interfered in a six-man tag team match between the team of the Hooper Boyz and Khris Jericho and the team of Edge, Khristian, and Kevin Hunter, which resulted in another brawl between the three teams. The interference allowed Jericho to pin Edge for the win.
