We shall see

It's wrestling. He's Samoan now And whatever do you mean about the LWO?

After a week delay (partially due to the holiday and partially to stretch some things out), back on schedule.

WCW Monday Nitro Live! May Week 1, 1998 - Episode #136– “Bowery ” <div style="margin:auto;width:700px;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);padding:25px;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;border:8px solid rgb(255, 128, 0);"><font color="#1a1a1a" face="Roboto"><span style="font-size:16px;"></span></font> WCW Monday Nitro opens with still photos from last night’s WCW/nWo Spring Stampede. The photos show Raven winning the WCW United States Championship, Syxxx defeating Bret “Hitman” Hart and Sting retaining his WCW World Heavyweight Title. The photos also show the ending where Kevin Nash and the nWo pretended like they were going to cash in on Sting before backing away. <iframe width="500" height="250" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cXXWw8AneQw" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;text-align:center;"><div style="font:44px Roboto;"><b>WCW MONDAY NITRO</b> REUNION ARENA, DALLAS, TX</div> <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto Slab;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;"> We then go into the arena where the pyro explodes and the Reunion Arena comes to life as WCW Monday Nitro is on the air. The Nitro girls, again minus Kimberly, dance in the ring to open the show and the routine ends with a pyro explosion at the ring posts. Tony, Mike & Larry welcome us to WCW Monday Nitro and we are 24 hours removed from WCW/nWo’s Spring Stampede where a number of events went down. We have a new WCW United States Champion in Raven and after the match Reese attacked Diamond Dallas Page. DDP is not here tonight as he is in a San Antonio hospital where he suffered back injuries. Later on tonight, Raven will be here in our featured contest when he defends the US title against Steve “Mongo” McMichael. Sting is still the WCW World Heavyweight Champion after he defeated Rowdy Roddy Piper but after the match, Kevin Nash and the nWo teased attacking Sting. In the end, they backed down. We are expecting to hear from Big Sexy at some point tonight. Also, Rey Mysterio, Jr. lost to Eddie Guerrero last night at Spring Stampede in the Cruiserweight Title ladder match and here tonight, Rey must join La Familia. But let’s go to the ring with our opening contest on Nitro. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>JERRY LYNN VS MENG</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Jerry Lynn tries to overcome the raw power of Meng and get the Samoan off his feet. After surviving power moves and chops that would have most men crying, Lynn finally lifts Meng up into a superplex from the top rope. But Meng gets right up and when Lynn stands up, Meng locks in the Tongan Death Grip. Lynn passes out from the pressure and the ref awards the match to Meng, however the Wild Soman will not let go of his grip. Meng is an unleashed animal. The ref warns Meng and counts but he will not release. Ultimately, the ref reverses his decision, calls for the bell and disqualifies Meng who does not care and won’t release his grip. WINNER BY DISQUALIFICATION: JERRY LYNN <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, the refs rush in and try to pull Meng off of Lynn. Finally Chris Jericho runs out with a chair and slams it against Meng over and over again before Meng finally falls to the floor and Jericho is able to check on Lynn. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> We go to the back where Bret Hart is seen walking. He will be with Mean Gene in the center of the ring...Next. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> We go to a graphic that tells us WCW/nWo Slamboree is in 20 days from Worcester, Mass LIVE and only on pay-per-view. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Backstage, Chris Jericho is leaving the medical area after checking on Jerry Lynn. He runs into Scott Hall who mocks Jericho for his loss last night and for watching his boy get beat up. Hall says that at one point the nWo considered offering a spot to Jericho, but it's clear that Chris does not have the killer instinct. If Jericho wants to see what that looks like, watch later tonight when Scott Hall is in action. Hall smirks at Jericho and bumps into him as he heads to the nWo’s locker room while Jericho glares and says “I’ll do just that.” <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Mean Gene is in the ring and he tells Dallas to please join him in welcoming the Best There Is, the Best There Was and the Best There Ever Will Be...the Hitman, Bret Hart. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/UI2tuRJYHjU" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> Bret says that while he is happy to be back in Dallas, he is pissed off. Everyone watching last night at Spring Stampede saw that Syxxx did defeat the Hitman, but he didn’t defeat Bret like a man. Instead, Syxxx chose the easy way out. Syxxx chose to poke Bret in the eye and then hold onto the ropes to win that match. Gene then shows us still photos confirming that happened. Suddenly we hear Syxxx up in the crowd going “waahh waahh waahh” and Syxxx saying that Bret can whine all he wants because that’s all that Bret is good for - whining. He whined up north and used his whining to get him a job in WCW and all of it is an excuse because Bret Hart is simply not the man that Syxxx is. And that is why he lost last night. Bret says, fine lets go one more time then if Syxxx is such a man. Slamboree is in 20 days and it is in the very back yard of where they both came from. So how about at Slamboree it is Syxxx against Bret Hart one more time and this time we’ll see how much of a “man” that little punk is. Syxxx laughs and says no, claiming that he beat Bret already and doesn’t need to again. This brings out James J Dillon who steps into the ring and says that’s not so. You see that match last night was under a contract executed by World Championship Wrestling. Which means that the rules of WCW must be followed. And while the referee’s decision is final, it is clear that Syxxx broke the rules and he is thereby contractually obligated to either agree to the rematch at Slamboree or WCW will be forced to reverse the decision and declare Bret Hart the winner. Syxxx is furious but he has no choice and agrees promising that in twenty days, Syxxx will humble Bret Hart once again. Bret says that at Slamboree, Bret is gonna shove that microphone down Syxxx’s skinny little throat. Bret and JJ shake hands as Gene tells us we have ourselves a match. He says to stick around, when Nitro comes back - the TV Champ Goldberg will be in action. Nitro is hot, it's from Dallas and we’re LIVE on TNT. Don’t you dare go away. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Nitro returns as Rey Mysterio, Jr. walks into the Reunion Arena. As soon as he enters, he is met by Chavo Guerrero, Jr who has a shirt for him that says “Eddie Guerrero Is My Favorite Wrestler”. Rey is told that they are so happy that he’s here, Eddie is in his locker room and later on tonight, when Eddie is in action - Rey is expected to be out there with Eddie...wearing that shirt. Chavo motions for Rey to follow him, who does with his head down. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>GOLDBERG © VS MR. HUGHES</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Mr. Hughes succeeds early in grounding Goldberg with some power holds but that only lasts about a minute or two.The tide turns when Goldberg does a Death Valley Driver on Hughes and then Spears the big man. After the Jackhammer, it’s all academic. Goldberg wins again. WINNER BY PINFALL AND STILL WCW TELEVISION CHAMPION: GOLDBERG <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, there is a commotion when this man jumps from the crowd and slides into the ring with a chair: Goldberg doesn’t see what is coming next and turns around to get demolished in the head with a chair splitting Goldberg wide open. The announcers tell us that this is Brian Adams who doesn’t even work here and wonders what the hell is going on here? Adams is on top of Goldberg and lays haymakers into the TV champ’s busted head before standing Goldberg up, who is out on his feet, Adams bounces off the ropes and does a running boot right to Goldberg’s face and the action causes Goldberg to go over the ropes and fall to the floor. Goldberg is out cold as officials come rushing down to the ring to check on him. Adams, celebrating, leaves the way he came - through the crowd. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> We go back up to the announce table while we watch Goldberg come to and be helped while Tony, Mike & Larry are stunned. They take us back to last night at Spring Stampede and show us how Rey Mysterio, Jr. lost to Eddie Guerrero. When Nitro, Rey apparently must accompany Eddie to the ring and he will do so as the Cruiserweight Champion defends his title against Hector Garza. That’s next on Nitro. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> The countdown to hour #2 happens just as Eddie is coming out with Rey and Chavo leading the way. Mysterio is in fact wearing Eddie’s shirt and looks disgusted. The pyro hits as hour #2 begins just as La Familia enters the ring. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>EDDIE GUERERRO © W/CHAVO GUERERRO JR AND REY MYSTERIO JR VS HECTOR GARZA</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Pretty good high flying match. Eddie dominates early but Hector hangs in and eventually Garza gets control. Garza nails a twisting plancha for a close count and that brings Chavo to the ring apron. He distracts the ref and Eddie orders Rey to hand Eddie the belt. Rey, reluctantly does so after some scolding, and Eddie blasts Hector with the title for the pinfall. WINNER BY PINFALL AND STILL WCW CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPION: EDDIE GUERERRO <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, Eddie orders Rey into the ring. He tells Rey that Rey must raise Eddie’s hand in victory. Rey looks like he wants to throw up, but does as he is told. Eddie goes to leave but then tells Rey to hold the ropes for Eddie. Rey glares but again does as he is told and Rey is ordered to walk behind Eddie as they leave the arena. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> The announcers put over how humiliating this is. But when we return, Kevin Nash will be on hand and we are told will address Sting. Don’t go anywhere. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/IYwXUxgszF0" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> Nitro returns to Kevin Nash leading out the troops in celebration. They come into the ring where Nash says that last night they had Sting worried that San Antonio would be where the run would end. Instead, the nWo just wanted to have a little fun. But the games are over because Nash says he hopes that Stinger is watching right now wherever he is. Two years ago this month, Scott here waltzed in on Nitro and changed the world. And two years ago, next month the Outsiders made their first statement in Baltimore. Baltimore is an important town for the Outsiders. Baltimore is also an important town for the Stinger. And the Great American Bash is an important event for the Stinger and the nWo. It is at that event, in that building where Sting’s era began. And so it is fitting, because it will be at that event and in that building where it will all end. Because the games are over, and we’re gonna do Stinger a solid and announce when the nWo will choose to cash in the “golden ticket”. It will be Sunday Night - June Week 3, 1998 - Live in Baltimore and it will be the Great American Bash. On that night, Still will have to defend the World Heavyweight Title and on that night, “we promise you, Sting - your legacy and your title dies. Forty-eight days, Sting. That is how long you have left to live. Because at the Great American Bash this all ends. Your quest for justice, your career, and WCW’s hopes all die. See you in Baltimore. Scott, enjoy your warm up match.” Nash, Konnan, Elizabeth, and Syxxx all leave while Macho Man stays with Scott Hall who is in action right now. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>SCOTT HALL W/RANDY SAVAGE VS ULTIMO DRAGON</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Scott pretty much dominates this match. Dragon has some hope spots but this is a big showcase for the nWo founder. Soon an Outsiders Edge finishes the job for the 3 count. WINNER BY PINFALL: SCOTT HALL <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, Hall continues beating down Dragon until Jericho makes the save for the second time tonight. This brings in Savage and the nWo start beating up Jericho until Booker T runs down the aisle. Hall and Savage bail from the ring when they see Booker. Booker points at Savage and demands a fight but the nWo backs away. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Nitro returns with Tony, Mike & Bobby telling us that next week on Nitro the Steiner Brothers return and we have been informed that they will have a challenge for the World Tag Team Champions, G.T.T. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> A music video plays to highlight Alex Wright who has twice now defeated Curt Hennig. We are told Alex will be on Nitro next week. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>DEAN MALENKO AND SUPER CRAZY VS LA PARKA AND PSYCHOSIS</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Fast pace and high flying lucha match except for when Dean is in the ring as he employs his ground and pound style. The finish comes when Dean locks on the Texas Cloverleaf on Psychosis and Super Crazy hits a powerbomb on La Parka at the same time. The ref counts Crazy’s pin first for the 3 count. WINNERS BY PINFALL: DEAN MALENKO AND SUPER CRAZY <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> We go back to last night at Spring Stampede and see still photos of how Raven won the US title from Diamond Dallas Page. When Nitro returns, our featured contest will be next. The brand new WCW United States Champion, Raven will defend his title against Mongo. That’s live and it’s next. Don’t go anywhere. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Nitro returns for Slamboree commercial featuring Syxxx vs Bret “Hitman” Hart. WCW/nWo Slamboree will be live in 20 days and only on pay-per-view. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> RAVEN’S RULES MATCH <b>RAVEN © VS STEVE MCMICHAEL</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> This is a brawl that begins when Mongo immediately spears Raven through the ropes as the champ steps into the ring and the two brawl on the floor. Mongo nails Raven with several chair shots and even does a Terry Funk style pull-down piledriver on the floor. But when Mongo rolls Raven into the ring, The Nest swarms and beats the hell out of Mongo on the floor while Raven recovers. The ref is powerless to stop it given Raven’s Rules. When Mongo is thrown back into the ring, Raven goes for the Evenflow DDT but Mongo drops to a knee and gives Raven a low blow. Mongo spikes Raven with the Tombstone but Kidman flies off onto Mongo’s back before he can cover. Again the Nest swarms and soon Raven recovers again and nails the Evenflow for the pinfall. WINNER BY PINFALL AND STILL WCW UNITED STATES CHAMPION: RAVEN <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, Saturn goes to attack Mongo but Raven orders him off. Raven prepares to attack when Chris Benoit runs out with Woman. He gets into the ring and starts brawling with Raven. Soon, Mongo is back up and they start fighting off the Nest until it appears the Nest will swarm again. Just as it appears the Nest will attack, Ric Flair & Arn Anderson come out with tire irons in their hands. The Nest sees this as Ric and Arn hand a tire iron to Benoit. The Nest moves back and over the barricade as Mean Gene comes into the ring. Gene asks if the Horsemen are reformed at this moment and Ric says “just helping some friends” before they go back to the floor. Gene grabs Chris Benoit and asks if the Crippler has anything to say. But before Benoit can even speak, Woman grabs the mic and says that she has something to say. Woman has sat back for a year and watched the Horsemen be dismantled. Watched as her man has had to go his own way. And watch as that cult freak has taken over WCW. Well its time to right all of this and so that’s why she returned. She returned to help the man that she loves, but also to issue a challenge on his behalf. (Woman turns to Raven who is sneering in the crowd). If Raven is in fact a man, instead of a scared little child, he will answer this challenge: at Slamboree - put that title on the line against the Crippler and end this. Benoit high fives her and concours that he wants a title match, Raven and the Nest are in the crowd and finally Raven says “IT’S YOUR FUNERAL” Gene says apparently the match is made. At Slamboree Chris Benoit will challenge Raven for the United States Title. Gene thanks us for watching as Benoit, Woman, Mongo, Flair & Arn hug. Nitro goes to black with Raven and his Nest leaving as Nitro goes off the air. <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto+Slab&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">

WCW/nWo Spring Stampede 1998 WCW/nWo Spring Stampede 1998 from the Sold Out Alamodome in San Antonio, TX <div style="margin:auto;width:700px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);padding:25px;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;border:8px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"><font color="#1a1a1a" face="Roboto"><span style="font-size:16px;"></span></font> Spring Stampede opens with a video feature on the WCW World Heavyweight Title match, Kevin Nash’s potential involvement as well as the United States Title match. The video ends by focusing on Piper’s haunting words that he will do anything to win. <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;text-align:center;"><div style="font:44px Roboto;"><b>WCW/nWo UNCENSORED ALAMODOME SAN ANTONIO, TX</b></div> <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102,51,0);"></div> <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto Slab;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;"> We come in live to the sold out Alamodome as pyro explodes and 30,000 screaming fans come to life. Tony, Bobby & Dusty welcome us to the show where tonight Sting will defend his WCW World Heavyweight Title against Rowdy Roddy Piper. After some hype, they pitch us to the opening match here at Spring Stampede. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> <b>CHRIS BENOIT AND STEVE MCMICHAEL VS SATURN AND RIGGS</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> This match is a war from the start but after dumping Benoit on his head on the floor, Raven’s Nest dissects Mongo for a lot of the match. When McMichael is able to nail Riggs with a Tombstone, Saturn rushes in to try to stop Mongo from tagging but fails. Benoit takes over and soon it’s another Donnybrook. Saturn posts Mongo but when Raven’s goons try to double team Benoit, Chris sends Riggs to the floor. Saturn goes for the rings of Saturn but Benoit reveres and locks on the Crossface. Riggs goes to rush in the ring, but as soon as he enters he is tripped from behind by someone fan. The “fan” takes off their hat and it’s WOMAN! The crowd comes alive as she holds onto Riggs’ foot while Saturn has no choice but to tap out to the Crossface. WINNERS BY SUBMISSION: CHRIS BENOIT AND STEVE MCMICHAEL <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> Post match replay and then Benoit and Woman look at each other before hugging. Mongo soon joins in as Raven’s Nest has been defeated. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> Mean Gene is happy for Benoit, Mongo & Woman and he is at the entrance set as Mean Gene welcomes to San Antonio - the 13 time Heavyweight Champion of the World, The Nature Boy Ric Flair and the Enforcer - Double A Arn Anderson. Ric and Arn come out just as Mongo, Benoit & Woman are walking up the aisle. Everyone meets and then hugs and then Benoit, Mongo & Nancy leave. Gene tells Ric that the time is up. It is time to tell us what he and Double A have been up to. Ric says that six months ago, he was forced to do something that he regrets. And tonight that will begin to be rectified. When Gene asks what that was, Ric says he will let Double A tell you what’s up. Arn looks at the camera and says “Over a decade ago excellence was personified in four men who ran roughshod over this business. Well times aren’t what they were. We have been beaten. We have been battered. But we’re as deadly as ever. We’re a little bit older, we’re a little bit wiser, and that fire is still here…the fire in the belly that shoots up your arm and makes your hand form this symbol. (4 fingers are held up) This century is coming to an end and it’s time for the Horsemen to ride again. The best this business has to offer doing what they do best….which is whatever they want to do. Right now there are two. Soon, there will be four. Saddle up, Gene ,heads are gonna roll.” Ric and Arn put the four fingers out for the world to see as Gene excitedly announces that apparently the Horsemen are back. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> We go back to a few weeks ago and see how Rey Mysterio, Jr nearly won the Cruiserweight Title and then to last week on Nitro where Mysterio challenged Eddie in a ladder match and put joining La Familia as a stipulation if he loses. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> Backstage Mean Gene is with Rey and asks Rey what is he doing risking being a lackey for Eddie Guerrero? Rey says that this is the price he had to pay to win back what he loves most. Rey had to risk it all. And Rey says he is a man with nothing left to lose, so Eddie should be very, very scared about what is to come next. Rey walks off as Mean Gene tells us that the Cruiserweight Title Ladder Match is next. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> LADDER MATCH---IF REY MYSTERIO JR LOSES HE JOINS LA FAMILIA <b>EDDIE GUERERRO © W/CHAVO GUERERRO JR VS REY MYSTERIO JR</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> As expected this is a punishing car crash as both men desperately try to win the Cruiserweight title. This match sees both men do spectacular spots off the ladder including a memorial spot where Rey had the belt, Eddie pulls the ladder out from under Rey, Eddie catches Rey but Mysterio turns it into a Hurricanranna. But when Rey climbs again, Chavo Guerrero grabs Rey by the legs and drags him down. Chavo tries to slam Mysterio’s head into the ladder but Rey reverses that and posts Chavo into the ladder. Rey dumps Chavo out of the ring and climbs again. Just as he gets up there, Eddie is up as well. Both men’s swing at the top of the ladder with haymakers. Eddie is able to do a superplex from the top of the ladder taking Rey down. Eddie climbs up the ladder and takes the belt to win. WINNER BY RETRIEVAL AND STILL WCW CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPION: EDDIE GUERRERO <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> Post match, Eddie and Chavo hug and gloat celebrating the win. Rey looks upset realizing what he now must do. The announcers tell us that starting tomorrow on Nitro from the Reunion Arena in Dallas - Rey must join La Familia and do Eddie Guerrero’s bidding. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> We go to a video promoting the Triangle Match for the WCW World Tag Team Titles. The video shows us G.T.T.’s reign of terror since arriving in January and capturing the Tag Team Titles over the Steiner Brothers. It then shows how we got to the Faces of Fear & Jericho/Lynn. The Triangle Match for the Tag Team Titles is next. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> <b>G.T.T. © VS THE FACES OF FEAR VS JERRY LYNN AND CHRIS JERICHO</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> G.T.T. bails to the floor at the start of this match and lets the Faces of Fear and Jericho/Lynn fight it out. But when Meng and Barbarian drop Jericho and have this match in hand, LoMonaco & Hughes attack from behind. From there, this match becomes more of a brawl as all the teams trade control before Jericho and Lynn are able to dispatch the FOF but Jericho turns and immediately gets hit with a Death Drop forcing him out of the ring. Lynn is left to be finished off and he is the one that takes the Final Deathdrop for the three count and successful title defense of G.T.T. WINNERS BY PINFALL AND STILL WCW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS: G.T.T. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> In the back Alex Wright is with Rick Rude. Rude does a promo saying that Curt Hennig is a shell of what he used to be and that Alex Wright is the future. And that after tonight, the Wunderkind will be done with that old fool and move on to greater things. Rude says he is not afraid of a shark cage and if Hennig thinks that Alex needs Rude to win, Curt Hennig is in for a Rude Awakening. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> RICK RUDE IN A SHARK CAGE <b>CURT HENNIG VS ALEX WRIGHT W/RICK RUDE</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> At first Rude refuses to get into the cage until the referee tells Rude that if he does not enter the cage, Alex Wright will lose this match by disqualification. This forces Rude to give in. Hennig beats the crap out of Wright for a lot of this match while Rude shouts encouragement from the Shark Cage and tries to get out of it. After Wright kicks out of a Hennigplex (barely) and after Hennig and Wright collide. Rick Rude throws a pair of brass knucks down to the ring, but Hennig intercepts them. The ref seeing this, is preventing Hennig from using the knucks. When the ref goes to hand the knucks to a ringside attendant, Alex kicks Hennig low and nails a German Suplex - Bridge for the 3 count. WINNER BY PINFALL: ALEX WRIGHT <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> After the match, Rude is lowered and he and Wright celebrate as they walk away victorious. Curt Hennig is screwed again. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> WCW/nWo Slamboree Commercial airs. WCW/nWo Slamboree will air on Sunday Week 3, May 1998 from The Centrum in Worcester, Massachusetts LIVE and only on pay-per-view. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> In the back Mean Gene is with Diamond Dallas Page who says that Kimberly is safe and tonight Raven pays. This is more than a match for the United States Title. Raven messed with Page’s wife and Page’s home. Thankfully nothing was damaged after the little stunt from last week - the Nest just wanted to scare Page - but that is not good enough. Later tonight, Raven pays and he will feel..the...BANG. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> We go to a package showing the issues between the Hitman Bret Hart & Syxxx of the nWo. Their collision is next. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> <b>BRET HART VS SYXXX</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> The beginning of the match sees Syxxx trying to escape the clutches of the Hitman and generally being a weasel before Bret finally gets his hands on him. Once Bret takes control, he beats down Syxxx with a targeted and excellent attack by the Excellence of Execution, but the Hitman cannot secure a victory. Bret makes a mistake when he goes for a second rope elbow drop because Syxxx is allowed to move out of the way. Syxxx nails Bret with lightning quick kicks and eventually goes for the Buzzkiller. He is able to lock it in as Bret scrambles to try to get to the ropes and eventually gets a foot into the ropes forcing a break. When Syxxx goes for it a second time, Bret does a reverse and a step over and goes for the Sharpshooter. However, Syxxx pokes his thumb in Bret’s eye and when Bret blindly stumbles around, Syxxx is able to roll Bret up and hooking a rope so that the ref does not see as the ref counts...1….2…..3. After the match, Syxxx quickly bails from the ring and the Hitman is furious. WINNER BY PINFALL: SYXXX <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> We go to the announce booth where Tony, Bobby & Dusty take us through the entire Raven - Diamond Dallas Page feud including the disgusting threats against Kimberly and Page’s home. Tonight it all ends and does so under Raven’s Rules. The WCW United States Championship match is next. Let’s go to the ring. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> RAVEN’S RULES <b>DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE © VS RAVEN</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> This wild brawl goes all over the Alamodome as Page beats the ever loving snot out of Raven. They battle backstage where Page is backdropped onto a windowpane but DDP will not stay down. When Raven goes for the Evenflow near the entrance area, Page reverses it into the Diamond Cutter. The ref tells Page that he must get Raven to the ring, so Page loads Raven onto an anvil case and pushes him up the aisle. As Raven is loaded into the ring, the Nest attacks Page on the floor. This brings out Mongo & Benoit who hit the ring to help but are taken out by the numbers game of the Nest. After Page drops Reese with a chair to the head, DDP sets Raven up for the kill shot - the Diamond Cutter. Page goes for it, Raven reverses it into Evenflow DDT for the pinfall and the title. WINNER BY PINFALL AND NEW WCW UNITED STATES CHAMPION: RAVEN <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> Post match Reese lifts Page up while Raven sets up a chair into the sitting position. Reese does a double handed chokeslam bomb onto Page onto the chair which crushes the chair. Medical personnel and officials race into the ring to tend to DDP as Raven and his Nest leave celebrating with the US title held high. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> We go back to Tony, Bobby & Dusty who are shocked and heart broken at what we just saw. They speculate that Page could be hurt and wonder if he will miss any time going forward. Certainly DDP is now heartbroken that he has lost his title. And speaking of heartbreaking, we turn to the stunning betrayal of Sting by Rowdy Roddy Piper. Roddy Piper was the man doing the random attacks on various WCW wrestlers. And he did it all to get closer to Sting under the guise of an ally. It all comes to a head next as the Heavyweight Championship of the World is on the line in a match where truly Anything Goes. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> We then go to a video package highlighting Piper’s arrival in WCW and feud with Hogan in 1996 and 1997 where Piper said he is not with WCW and not with the nWo, he is out for himself. The video highlights Sting’s rise to the title. Then switches to 1998 where the attacks began. Then we see the betrayal by Roddy Piper of Sting as well as the antics of Kevin Nash who promises to be here tonight and may cash in his so-called “Golden Ticket”. The video ends with Sting’s threat from Nitro last week. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> Michael Buffer is in the ring to make the introductions but before he can begin… <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/IYwXUxgszF0" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> True to his word, Big Sexy Kevin Nash makes his way down to the ring and goes to an area where an arena attendant has opened the guard rail. Nash walks over to a special seat waiting for him at ringside and highfives the fans nearby. Nash sits down arrogantly, knowing that this could be his moment. Buffer then makes the introductions and the World Title Match is on. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> ANYTHING GOES <b>STING © VS RODDY PIPER</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> As soon as Sting enters the ring, Piper spits at the champion who responds immediately with a haymaker and a flurry of punches. The Hot Rod has to bail from the ring but the strategy falters because Sting continues the assault on the floor. When Piper runs back into the ring, the Hot Rod is able to use Sting’s aggression against him and drop a knee on the back of Sting’s leg as the champ slides into the ring. From there Piper is working on Sting’s knee so that the Scorpion Deathlock cannot be applied. Piper wraps Sting’s leg around the ring post on the floor and nails the champ with a chair. Referees and medical personnel rush the ring but Piper scares them all away with a chair and wallops Sting over and over with it. Piper orders the cover….1….2…..Sting kicks out. After ducking a swinging chair, Sting is able to blast Piper in the head with the chair for a two count. When Sting begins his comeback, he gets Piper into a corner and limps for the Stingers Splash but the champ’s knee buckles before he ever gets there. From there Piper is able to lock in the Sleeper Hold as Sting’s title looks to be slipping away. Just before Sting passes out, the champ grabs the chair and swings it backwards connecting with the top of Piper’s head. Piper gets up as Sting, on one leg, nails the Scorpion Death Drop for the 1...2...3. WINNER BY PINFALL AND STILL WCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION: STING <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(102, 51,0);"></div> After the match, an exhausted and clearly injured Sting begins to celebrate his title win as a defeated Piper leaves. Suddenly the nWo start making their way down to the ring and begin to surround the ring. Kevin Nash smiles like man that just won the lottery and steps over the guardrail. Sting prepares for a fight on one leg as the nWo circle the ring and on Nash’s order begins to climb up onto the ring apron. Kevin Nash himself gets up to the apron and begins to enter the ring as Sting is ready for a fight. At the last moment, Nash yells “Naaahhhh” and steps down to the floor as the nWo does the same at the exact same moment. Nash and his buddies back away laughing and mocking Sting with Nash saying “not yet Stinger”. Sting looks around not trusting the situation but is still the WCW World Heavyweight Champion as Spring Stampede goes off the air. <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto+Slab&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">

Now when have you ever known WCW to raid ECW?

Hey guys just want to give you an update on the schedule for the next few days. Due to the New Year and various personal life things I need to do, I’ll be delaying for a few days. The ppv is mostly written. And sat night/news will come before this weekend is out. The ppv will be early this week and nitro probably mid week. Happy New Year guys.

Happy New Year guys! Thanks so much for reading this project. I am floored by the support. And I can’t wait to bring some big stories this year.

😂😂 no idea but I hope they do that.

Thank you!! I am pretty excited for this card. Everything has a story and meaning and nothing is thrown in there just to be in there. Probably, on paper, the card I am most personally proud of so far.

We are waiting to see whether or not tonight is in fact the night where World Champion Sting speaks for the very first time in nearly two years. Rowdy Roddy Piper is on hand tonight. And in our featured contest, Lex Luger will team with the Hitman Bret Hart to take on Syxxx and Konnan of the nWo. But let’s go to the ring with our opening contest here on Nitro. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>BLITZKRIEG, KAZ HAYASHI AND ULTIMO DRAGON VS JUVENTUD GUERERRA, PSYCHOSIS, AND LA PARKA</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Standard hot Nitro opener with lots of Lucha high flying moves. Most of the match is Psychosis and Ultimo Dragon battling out. But the finish comes when La Parks drops Blitzkrieg with an implant DDT and tags in Juvie who climbs up top and nails the 450 for the clean pinfall. WINNERS BY PINFALL: JUVENTUD GUERERRA, PSYCHOSIS, AND LA PARKA <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Our Castrol GTX Power Pin of the Week is Juventud Guerrero’s 450 onto Blitzkrieg for the pinfall. Castrol GTX - Drive Hard. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Chris Jericho is walking backstage. He will face Meng when we come back. It’s Nitro live from Phoenix on TNT. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Nitro returns to the Nitro girls, minus Kimberly Page, dancing to bring everyone back from break. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>CHRIS JERICHO VS MENG</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> A tough match for Jericho as Meng just pummels the younger star for most of the match. Once Jericho starts his comeback, Barbarian gets nervous. When Jericho is able to floor Meng with a Superplex and signals to go for the Lionsault, Barbarian slides in and nails Jericho in the face with a big boot. The ref calls for the bell signaling the disqualification. WINNER BY DISQUALIFICATION: CHRIS JERICHO <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, Jerry Lynn gets into the ring to attack Barbarian for attacking Jericho. The two teams start brawling when World Tag Team Champions, G.T.T. run out with chairs and attack the two teams. The champs wallop all four men and soon they are the only ones left standing. LoMonaco and Hughes promise to keep these titles in six days on pay-per- view. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Mean Gene is at the Nitro set and he calls out Ric Flair & Arn Anderson. Gene says that the two promised to tell the world what was going on before the end of this month, well the month is nearly over. Arn says tonight is not the night. Ric Flair says but Texas is a terrific place to bring some sanity back to WCW. Ric promises that he and Arn will be on hand this Sunday at Spring Stampede. And they wink as they walk away. Gene tells us not to go anywhere, when Nitro returns Goldberg is in action. Don’t go anywhere. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Monday Nitro returns with a pre packaged interview with Booker T who speaks about his issues with Macho Man Randy Savage. Booker demands that Macho Man meet him next week on Nitro man-to-man. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>GOLDBERG © VS EL DANDY</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Dominant Goldberg match who is starting to show some more offense to his repertoire as Da Man drops El Dandy with a few suplexes. After that, Goldberg nails a decisive Spear and Jackhammer and the question remains…Who’s Next? WINNER BY PINFALL AND STILL WCW TELEVISION CHAMPION: GOLDBERG <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> We are reminded by the announcers that still to come is Rey Mysterio’s challenge to Eddie Guerrero, our featured contest of Bret Hart & Lex Luger against Syxxx & Konnan and will Sting be on hand to speak about Roddy Piper? We will answer that question in our second hour. Hour number 2 kicks off when Monday Nitro returns live from Phoenix. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> A commercial for Spring Stampede airs as Nitro returns from break. The commercial focuses on Sting vs Piper with Kevin Nash lurking in the background wondering if Big Sexy will cash in on his “golden ticket”? WCW/nWo Spring Stampede airs live THIS SUNDAY on pay-per-view. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Tony, Mike & Bobby welcome us to Hour #2, but as soon as they begin to speak we see Mean Gene being brought out by Diamond Dallas Page, Chris Benoit & Mongo. They escort him to the ring where Page is seething and pacing in the ring. The three look around for Raven’s Nest but they’re not there. Benoit and Mongo say they are tired of the games with the Nest and last week was the last straw. Page rips the microphone and paces like a crazed man. He says that last week the Nest decided to make all of this personal. Deadly personal. Raven sicced his nutbag group on DDP’s wife? Tonight Kimberly is here, but she is backstage with a fleet of cops…. Raven’s voice is suddenly heard and everyone looks around until Raven’s face is shown on the video screens around the arena. Mongo points towards a screen as Page watches the camera pan back and the entire Nest is with Raven but they’re not in the arena...they’re in front of a big house. Page’s eyes go wide as Raven says that it is too bad that Kimberly is in Arizona and not here in Atlanta. Raven tells us that the house in the background is the home of Kimberly and Page. Raven says that this Sunday at Spring Stampede when the US Title is on the line, yes it's personal - but Raven will be the cause of and will feel Diamond Dallas Page’s pain as Raven rips Page’s most prized possession from his hands. And since Benoit and Mongo want in on the fun? They can have Saturn and Riggs on Sunday. Stevie hands a torch to Raven who lights it. Raven says, since Kimberly is not there - maybe they should take this to another level. Raven hands the torch to the Nest who starts walking towards the house. Raven says the only way to live in the world is to burn it all down. “See you Sunday, Dallas. Quote the Raven, Nevermore.” The video ends as Page, Benoit & Mongo have already bailed from the ring and are racing to the back. Gene is disgusted and throws us to commercial. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Back from the break we see “During the commercial” as Diamond Dallas Page, Kimberly, Chris Benoit & Steve McMichael race toward a car. Kimberly is crying as they power walk to the back. The four hop into the car and it speeds out into the night. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>DEAN MALENKO VS ALEX WRIGHT W/RICK RUDE</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> A back and forth match that Dean really schools Wright in, but Dean cannot put Alex away. Wright takes control and seems close to beating the Man of 1,000 Holds until a distraction by Curt Hennig which allows Malenko to nail Wright from behind and lock on the Texas Cloverleaf for the submission victory. WINNER BY SUBMISSION: DEAN MALENKO <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, Curt Hennig cannot wait any longer as he attacks Alex Wright. Rude eventually is able to rip Curt off of Alex as Wright bails from the ring. Rude and Wright hightail it out of there as Curt says this Sunday there is nowhere to run. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Rey Mysterio is walking through the entrance set. He heads down toward the ring to make a offer Eddie Guerrero cannot accept. What is that offer? We will find out...next on Nitro. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> nWo paid advertisement brings us back featuring Syxxx & Nash mocking Bret Hart & Sting. Syxxx says he will prove that Vince McMahon’s patron saint is a fraud this Sunday on PPV. Nash promises that he will be lurking and will be very interested in Piper and Sting. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> In the ring Rey Mysterio calls out Eddie Guerrero who finally comes out to the ringside area with his nephew Chavo. Rey challenges Eddie for one more shot this Sunday at the Cruiserweight Title in a ladder match. Eddie laughs it off and says no and begins to walk away. That is when Rey says that he knew Eddie would say no because he is a coward. That cowardice is the reason that Eddie has his nephew doing his dirty work. And that cowardice will be Eddie’s undoing or it will lead to permanent humiliation for Rey Mysterio, because here is the offer that Eddie can’t refuse… Rey Mysterio vs Eddie Guerrero this Sunday in a ladder match for the Cruiserweight Title. And if Rey cannot win, not only will Eddie Guerrero win, but Rey Mysterio will leave WCW. Eddie goes to accept but Chavo speaks to his Uncle and Eddie makes a counter. He says as great is it would be to run Rey out of WCW forever, it will be more fun to make Rey be in Eddie’s debt. So, Eddie will agree to the match but instead of Rey quitting WCW, how about this? When Eddie wins this match and holds onto this title, Rey Mysterio Jr must join La Familia and do whatever Eddie Guerrero demands. From here on out, Rey will be under the control of Eddie Guerrero. Those are the terms. Rey hangs his head but he really has no choice, Rey accepts the terms and the match is made. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>SUPER CRAZY VS BUNKHOUSE BUCK</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Despite the size advantage, it is the aerial capabilities of Super Crazy that stands out in this match. Bunkhouse eventually eats a top rope bulldog and that seals the deed in this match. WINNER BY PINFALL: SUPER CRAZY <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> The announcers tell us to stick around. When we come back our featured contest will be next as well as we are still expecting Sting to appear here tonight. Nitro is heading to overtime, don’t go anywhere. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> One more ppv commercial airs to highlight WCW/nWo Spring Stampede this Sunday live on pay-per-view. The announcers tell us that the featured contest is next, but first they set us up for WCW/nWo Spring Stampede from the sold out Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas this Sunday: WCW World Heavyweight Championship Match - Anything Goes Rowdy Roddy Piper vs WCW World Heavyweight Champion Sting Syxxx vs Bret “Hitman” Hart WCW United States Championship Match - Raven’s Rules Raven vs WCW United States Heavyweight Champion Diamond Dallas Page WCW Cruiserweight Championship - Ladder Match - If Rey Mysterio, Jr. loses, he must join La Familia Rey Mysterio, Jr. vs WCW Cruiserweight Champion Eddie Guerrero WCW World Tag Team Championship - Triangle Match Faces of Fear vs Chris Jericho & Jerry Lynn vs WCW World Tag Team Champions G.T.T.

WCW/nWo Spring Stampede will air live THIS SUNDAY from the sold out Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas only on pay-per-view. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>BRET HART AND LEX LUGER VS SYXXX AND KONNAN</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Luger and Bret work well as a team early on but, soon Konnan and Syxxx take Luger and start beating him down and cutting Luger off from Bret. After some close near falls, Syxxx goes for the Buzzkiller but Luger reverses out and locks on the Torture Rack. Konnan rushes in and punches Luger in the lower back. Both Luger and Syxxx crawl to their partners and make the tag with Bret cleaning house. Bret goes for the Sharpshooter on Konnan but Syxxx stops it and Luger recovers enough to clothesline Syxxx to the floor and take off after him. Konnan locks the half Boston Crab but Bret is able to power out, flip Konnan over and lock in the Sharpshooter. With Luger keeping Syxxx at bay, Konnan has no choice but to tap out. WINNERS BY SUBMISSION: BRET HART AND LEX LUGER <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, Syxxx backs away from the ring and says he will see Bret this Sunday on pay per view. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> The announcers tell us not to go anywhere as the camera scans the top of the building for Sting. This is our final time out. When we come back, Mean Gene Okerlund will be in the ring and will Sting indeed show up? Find out when we return on Nitro! <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Monday Nitro returns with Mean Gene in the ring. Gene looks around for any sign of Sting and goes to call for the World Champion when… <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0izHfG2Ewmw" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> Rowdy Roddy Piper comes out and says that since Stinger clearly does not have the guts to come out here, Hot Rod is man enough to be here. Piper starts going on a long silulogy about why Piper is the hero here and how Sting will fall this Sunday at Spring Stampede. Piper says that he doesn’t care if Nash does indeed cash in his so-called “golden ticket”, Piper will beat his ass too. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/IYwXUxgszF0" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> Nash comes out and says that 1) Kevin Nash has not decided to cash in his golden ticket on Sunday, but if he does - lets get something straight right now. Roddy Piper is not man enough and he does not have the size to do anything against Big Sexy. And let’s make it clear, if Piper or Sting is the World Champion, when Kevin Nash decides to be champion and bring their trophy back to the nWo - there is not a damned thing that anyone can do about it. Kevin Nash says he is the hunter and he will... Just as Piper and Nash look to get close to coming to blows the lights flicker and then cut out entirely. When they return, World Champion Sting is in the ring with bats pointed at both Nash and Piper. Piper, startled, bails from the ring. Nash is more hesitant. Sting looks at both men and then at Mean Gene and grabs Gene’s arm. Sting looks at Nash and says “Nash you’re not the hunter...you’re the hunted.” Sting then turns to look at Piper and says “and you? On Sunday, you’ll have to kill me to stop me and if you don’t? Piper….you’re a dead man.” Sting has spoken as both Nash and Piper are equally stunned and worried. Piper and Nash eye each other nervously while Sting hooks himself back up. The World Champion ascends to the heaven’s with Tony Schiavone telling us not to miss Spring Stampede this Sunday as Nitro goes off the air. <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto+Slab&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">

WCW Monday Nitro Live! April Week 3, 1998 - Episode #134– “Savaged” <div style="margin:auto;width:700px;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);padding:25px;text-align:justify;line-height:normal;border:8px solid rgb(255, 128, 0);"><font color="#1a1a1a" face="Roboto"><span style="font-size:16px;"></span></font> WCW Monday Nitro opens without a recap or an opening video. Instead the show goes live into the Target Center in Minneapolis where Rowdy Roddy Piper is in the ring. An interview set is set up and Piper introduces his special guest tonight - the WCW World Heavyweight Champion (for thirteen days that is)..Sting. The crowd cheers but the cheers quickly turn to jeers when Piper produces a cardboard cut out of Sting wearing a kids version of the WCW title belt. Piper mocks Sting (including doing a high pitched version of Sting’s voice) as “Sting” confirms that Roddy Piper is a real man. “Sting” tells Piper that Roddy Piper is a better champion and that “Sting” is scared to death of the Hot Rod. Suddenly the lights start flickering but when they come back on Piper is sitting on his bar stool laughing. When Piper begins to “interview” again, the lights flicker and Piper looks scared. Then the lights go out again. When they return, Piper is standing up looking to the sky but Sting, the real Sting, is sitting on the very barstool that Piper was just sitting on. Piper turns around, screams and bails from the ring just as Sting charges him. Piper goes running up the aisle to escape the champion. Tony, Mike & Larry put over the fact that Rowdy Roddy Piper is scared to death of Sting and promise to start Nitro after this time out. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <iframe width="500" height="250" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cXXWw8AneQw" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;text-align:center;"><div style="font:44px Roboto;"><b>WCW MONDAY NITRO</b> TARGET CENTER MINNEAPOLIS, MN</div> <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <div style="color:rgb(26, 26, 26);font-family:Roboto Slab;font-size:16px;font-style:normal;"> Pyro explodes as the Target Center comes to life and Tony, Mike & Larry welcome us to professional wrestling’s number one program, WCW Monday Nitro! The announcers put over what we just saw and tell us that tonight Bret the Hitman Hart will be in action against Konnan of the nWo, WCW Television Champion Goldberg is here and in our featured contest Booker T will go one on one against Scott Hall. But we go to the ring for our opening contest here on Nitro. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>CURT HENNIG VS DEAN MALENKO</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> After a terrific back and forth match, Malenko goes for the Texas Cloverleaf but Hennig grabs his head and turns it into a small package for the victory. WINNER BY PINFALL: CURT HENNIG <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, Rick Rude comes down and bad mouths Curt Hennig who is ready to fight his former friend. This all serves to be a distraction as Alex Wright sneaks from under the ring with a chair and blasts Hennig from behind. Wright continues to wallop Hennig with the chair until Malenko gets back into the ring and chases Wright and Rude away. Malenko checks on the man that just defeated him as Nitro goes to commercial. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> Monday Nitro returns to a video of a sit down interview that Mike Tenay did with Rick & Scott the Steiner Brothers. The Steiners said that they lost the titles in a tables match and the last year has been a trying time for Rick & Scott, but Ricky is recovering and soon the Steiners will return. And when they return, things will change. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>SUPER CRAZY VS LA PARKA</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> Fast paced Lucha match that sees La Parka try to hit Crazy with the chair but ends up being DDT’ed on it instead. The Last Sunrise ends the match.

G.T.T takes the two for granted early on but soon Jericho and Lynn, making their first outing as a team, are in complete control and keep Devon from getting a tag. Jericho and Lynn use classic tag wrestling and aerial maneuvers to get several close falls. The mistake comes when Lynn holds LoMonaco while Jericho charges but Mark duck’s and Jericho collides with his partner. Hughes throws in a tag belt and LoMonaco slams it into Jericho’s head while the ref is distracted for the 3 count. WINNERS BY PINFALL AND STILL WCW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS: G.T.T. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match we see Barbarian & Meng come out to the ring. The two teams get nose to nose yet again and then pushing and shoving as it is clear that the Faces of Fear want the titles. After refs establish order, James J Dillon comes out on crutches and says that the titles will be on the line at Spring Stampede between G.T.T., the Faces of Fear and the team that was just cheated out of the titles - Jericho & Lynn in a Triangle Match. G.T.T. is incensed at this news. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> We go back to last week where Rey Mysterio just barely lost the Cruiserweight Title.

The video shows a buzzard picking at a carcass. Nash’s voice can be heard saying “Sting? Piper? It doesn’t matter whose bones Big Sexy ends up picking. That title is coming home. And maybe...at Spring Stampede.” <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>GOLDBERG © VS BUNKHOUSE BUCK</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> As soon as Buck charges, Goldberg spears him. A Jackhammer and the pinfall is next. Goldberg is celebrating less than a minute after the bell rings. WINNER BY PINFALL AND STILL WCW TELEVISION CHAMPION: GOLDBERG <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After Goldberg leaves the Nitro girls come down to the ring for a performance in the ring. Just as they start getting to the performance, a few members of the Nest jump the rail and surround the ring. The Nest point directly at Kimberly. The girls are scared when suddenly Diamond Dallas Page, Chris Benoit & Mongo run out with chairs. The three run the Nest off with Raven smirking as Page gets his wife the hell out of danger. Benoit & Mongo challenge any of them to a match. Raven says Sick Boy and Riggs are up. The announcers tell us that the impromptu match will be next when Nitro returns. Don’t go anywhere. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>CHRIS BENOIT AND STEVE MCMICHAEL VS SICK BOY AND RIGGS</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> This is a wild brawl from four guys that are able to do it. Early on the ref allows the four men to brawl up the aisle where Mongo does a Tombstone onto the floor on Riggs. But during the confusion, Saturn nails Benoit near the ring before sliding over the barricade. This allows Sick Boy to take charge and get some near falls before Benoit made the hot tag to Mongo who cleans house. Soon, Riggs is back in and Mongo nails the Tombstone one more time for a three count. WINNERS BY PINFALL: CHRIS BENOIT AND STEVE MCMICHAEL <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match, Saturn jumps over the railing with Reese. They go to attack Benoit & Mongo, but Raven calls everyone off. Raven promises that tonight was fun, but the pain will come soon for Benoit & Mongo. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> We see Ric Flair & Arn Anderson speak to each other before exiting their skybox after witnessing what just went down. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> We are told that next week from Phoenix, Arizona - World Champion Sting will be on hand and may speak for the very first time in nearly two years. Just six days before Spring Stampede. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> The announcers tell us to stick around. We’re going to overtime with our featured contest. Scott Hall of the nWo against Booker T will main event Nitro….next. <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> <b>SCOTT HALL VS BOOKER T</b><span style="font-weight:normal;"> The story of this match early on is Scott Hall realizing how good Booker T is and trying to end things early but Booker, ever the babyface, will not stay down. After going for the Outsider’s Edge, Booker is able to slide down and deliver a German Suplex to Scott. From there Booker really starts to take control of this match and nails the Harlem Hangover for a near fall. Scott Hall takes the match back and hits the fall away slam and then the Outsiders Edge. He covers 1...2...Booker T kicks out. When Hall charges to nail Booker again, Booker grabs Hall and delivers a Book End. This brings Randy Savage and Elizabeth running down the ring. Savage gets on the apron and Booker decks the Macho Man. While this is going on, Elizabeth slips Hall a loaded purse, when Booker comes over to grab Scott, Hall nails Booker in the head. Booker slides the purse out of the ring and covers for the 1...2..3. WINNER BY PINFALL: SCOTT HALL <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Roboto;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;border-top:3px solid rgb(0,0,0);"></div> After the match Macho Man begins to immediately assault Booker T. Konnan runs down and helps Scott Hall keep the officials at bay from rescuing Booker T. Savage drops three big elbows before busting Booker open with a chair. The show ends with Macho Man spray painting Booker on the back with the nWo letters in white spray paint. Savage sneers down at his victim looking like a man possessed as WCW Monday Nitro goes off the air. <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto+Slab&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans&display=swap" rel="stylesheet"> <link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto&display=swap" rel="stylesheet">
