Shortly after SummerSlam, the Rock began teaming with former opponent Mankind and the two became known as the Rock 'n' Sock Connection. They became WWF Tag Team Champions for the first time after defeating The Undertaker and Big Show for the titles on the August 30, 1999 episode of "Raw is War". The two performed a number of critically acclaimed comedic skits together, including one called "This Is Your Life", which saw Mankind bring parody versions of people from the Rock's past on television, such as his high school girlfriend and his high school football coach, only to have the Rock insult them. The segment earned an 8.4 Nielsen rating, one of the highest ratings ever for a "Raw" segment. The two lost the titles back to Undertaker and Big Show on the September 7, 1999 episode of "SmackDown!" and won them back from them on the September 20, 1999 episode of "Raw is War". Rock and Mankind then lost the titles to The New Age Outlaws on the very next episode "SmackDown!". Rock and Mankind would win the tag titles for the third and final time after beating the New Age Outlaws on the October 12, 1999 episode of "SmackDown!" before losing the titles to The Holly Cousins on the October 18, 1999 episode of "Raw is War".
