Unforgiven (1999) was the second Unforgiven professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by International Wrestling Federation (IWF). It took place on September 26, 1999, at the Charlotte Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The main event was a Six-Pack Challenge–a non-elimination match consisting of six wrestlers for the vacant IWF Championship. Stone Cold Steve Austin served as the special outside enforcer for the match. The match included Triple K, The Rock, Mankind, Kane, Big Show, and British Bulldog. Triple K pinned Rock after a Pedigree to win the IWF Championship. The undercard featured X-Pac versus Chris Jericho, a Kennel from Hell match between champion Al Snow and challenger Big Boss Man for the IWF Hardcore Championship, New Age Outlaws (Billy Gunn and Road Dogg) versus Edge and Christian for the IWF Tag Team Championship, Ivory versus Luna Vachon in a Hardcore match for the IWF Women's Championship, The Acolytes (Faarooq and Bradshaw) versus The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray Dudley and D-Von Dudley), Jeff Jarrett versus Maria SendenChyna for the IWF Intercontinental Championship, Mark Henry versus D'Lo Brown for the IWF European Championship, and Val Venis versus Steve Blackman.
The matches of the event featured special guest referees due to the IWF officials being out on "strike" due to continuous assaults on them by wrestlers. However, only one IWF official Jim Korderas served as the referee of the event. He refereed Dudley Boyz vs. The Acolytes, the IWF Tag Team Championship match and the IWF Championship match.
The previous Unforgiven event was held in April while the 1999 edition was moved to September as Backlash took Unforgiven's place. Unforgiven replaced Breakdown: In Your House that was held in September 1998. Unforgiven continued to being used as a pay-per-view for the month of September until its final edition in 2008 as it was replaced by Breaking Point in 2009.
