But Paul Heyman doesn't like to hang around before making his next move, and that's why whoever walks out of the Hammerstein Ballroom as Champion will already have their next challenger. The Father of Extreme made his way into the arena to reveal that this Sunday, there will be an Extreme Open Battle Royal to determine the next challenger for the ECW World Championship. Heyman made it extremely clear that this match would be open to absolutely anybody, anybody who feels that they are "extreme" enough to challenge for the World title. "I don't give a damn if you're from WWE Raw, if you're from WCW Nitro, or from right here on ECW" he declared, "Hell, I don't care if you don't even work here at all! If you think you can step between these ropes and get extreme, then bring it on". The opportunity had been laid out, and now it's just a matter of waiting to see who will rise to the occasion. Leave it to Paul Heyman to raise stakes.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/NNfG1Hj.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/NNfG1Hj.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Lunatic Fringe and The Charismatic Enigma sign the official contract for their Loser Leaves ECW bout at ECW One Night Stand - tonight!</b></div></p><p> Announced last week when Jeff Hardy accepted the challenge, he and Dean Ambrose will collide this Sunday for one last time, with the loser forced to leave The Land of Extreme. This heated rivalry has reached the point where one man must leave, and that is exactly what will happen at One Night Stand. Hardy and Ambrose sign the official contract tonight, but who will leave the Hammerstein Ballroom with their own contract still intact?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/O3vBHjE.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/O3vBHjE.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Rob Van Dam def. Rhyno</b></div></p><p> Just moments after Paul Heyman had announced the Extreme Open Battle Royal, it was confirmed that both Rob Van Dam and Rhyno would be participants in the bout, leading into this one-on-one contest. The two ECW originals collided just a week after they both came up short in the semi finals of the ECW Television Championship Tournament, and it was The Whole F'n Show that walked out with the victory, avoiding a Gore from the Man Beast and hitting his signature Five-Star Frog Splash. The former World Champion stood over his fallen foe and celebrated with the hardcore faithful. Could Rob Van Dam be the one to go all the way and earn his place as number one contender this Sunday?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/bteovAw.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/bteovAw.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Dudley Boyz def. The Colóns</b></div></p><p> The ECW Tag Team Champions made an emphatic statement last week when they defeated the tandem of Tye Dillinger and Zack Ryder, putting both men through tables as a direct message to their challengers, the Dudley Boyz. However, not discouraged by the display, the legendary tag team arrived on ECW tonight and issued an equally dominant beating to Primo and Epico Colón. The Hall of Famers planted Epico with a 3-D to pick up the victory and stood in celebration amidst the ECW faithful. Bubba Ray grabbed a microphone and declared that he and his brother were saving the tables for Harper and Rowan, and promised to show them how it feels to "get wood". "Testify!" shouted D-Von as the pair left ringside, ready for their title opportunity this Sunday.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/QyWUf9O.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/QyWUf9O.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Man invades ECW again and a brawl breaks out between Becky Lynch and Shayna Baszler</b></div></p><p> We saw Becky Lynch get extreme last week, emerging on ECW and taking a steel chair to her challenger, Shayna Baszler. This week, The Queen of Spades came to the ring and addressed the Women's World Champion, promising to end her career this Sunday at ECW One Night Stand. She also had a few things to say about Ronda Rousey, who had been seemingly supporting The Man as she prepared to face Baszler, albeit in a confusing and suspicious manner. But no sooner had the number one contender stated that she guarantees victory, Becky Lynch made yet another appearance in The Land of Extreme, wasting no time in taking the fight to her challenger. A chaotic brawl ensued and officials were forced to separate the pair. Which one of these women will leave the Hammerstein Ballroom as the Women's World Champion?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/DUm21nn.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/DUm21nn.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Johnny Gargano to address Finn Bálor just days before their ECW World Championship clash</b></div></p><p> Just days before he goes head-to-head with Finn Bálor for the ECW World Championship, Johnny Gargano will address his adversary directly. After last week's display of aggression from him and his #DIY companion, Tommaso Ciampa, what will Johnny Wrestling have to say to the man he intends to dethrone at ECW One Night Stand?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/i0H5NCb.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/i0H5NCb.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Drew Gulak def. Pete Dunne</b></div></p><p> The finals of the ECW Television Championship Tournament take place this Sunday at ECW One Night Stand, and one of those competitors involved is Pete Dunne. The other? Lars Sullivan. But tonight, it was Sullivan's "handler", Drew Gulak that went into battle against the Bruiserweight, and with The Freak watching on from ringside, it was never going to be simple. Dunne came within moments of defeating the self-proclaimed "anti-extremist", but it was then when Sullivan chose to strike. He ambushed his One Night Stand opponent and unleashed a hellish beating, laying Dunne out cold. Gulak capitalised and hooked the leg to secure an upset victory over the Bruiserweight and stood tall alongside his monster. Pete Dunne has his work cut out for him this Sunday if he wants to walk out as the first ECW Television Champion of the New Era.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/2HQAAtD.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/2HQAAtD.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Kevin Owens viciously assaults Sami Zayn during a backstage interview</b></div></p><p> The hardcore faithful are used to bitter and bloody feuds, but maybe not quite like this. These two former best friends aren't just trying to hurt each other, they're trying to kill each other. As Sami Zayn began an exclusive interview addressing his recent return and his revenge-fuelled attacks on Kevin Owens the last couple of weeks, he was blindsided by the very man in question. KO struck with a steel pipe to the back of Zayn's skull and proceeded to tear his jacket and shirt from his body, dragging him around the backstage area like a rag doll. "You want to do this, Sami?!" he repeatedly screamed as he threw The Underdog from the Underground into anything that they passed. Travelling into the parking lot, Owens slammed a car door into the shoulder of his former best friend, and then went on to continue beating him with shot after shot. Eventually, security arrived on the scene and apprehended Owens, dragging him away from the scene. He could be heard shouting "I'll see you Sunday!" as he was removed from the area, medical personal tending to Sami Zayn. This is more than just a rivalry, this is downright personal.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/InK3KGx.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/InK3KGx.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Rusev def. No Way Jose, Goldust & Mojo Rawley in a Four-Way Dance</b></div></p><p> It seems the Extreme Open Battle Royal has motivated a lot of ECW's extremists, and everyone is out to prove why they deserve to win the opportunity. Four men did battle tonight in a match synonymous with The Land of Extreme, a Four-Way Dance. First to be eliminated was Mojo Rawley who fell victim to a ¡Toma! from No Way Jose. Goldust was the next person to leave the match, courtesy of Rusev's Machka Kick, and a little help from Aiden English who hung the legendary competitor up on the top rope to send him into The Bulgarian Brute. And finally, No Way Jose put on an incredible display against the former United States Champion, but was unable to see the job through as he was forced to submit to The Accolade, giving Rusev the victory. The Bulgarian Brute stood tall in celebration, Aiden English leading the chant of "Rusev Day!" as Lana declared that her husband would win the Extreme Open Battle Royal this Sunday. It's hard to argue after a display like that.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/rs5krF3.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/rs5krF3.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Loser Leaves ECW contract signing turns violent as Ambrose puts Hardy through a table</b></div></p><p> Next week, only one of these men will be an official member of the ECW roster, and the other will be left on the unemployment line. But it's the only way to make sure that this is indeed the final time they collide. The Charismatic Enigma ditched the facepaint for this occasion as he prepared to sign the contract that could potentially put an end to his own. Dean Ambrose on the other hand attended the scene looking ready for a fight as always. Paul Heyman returned to ringside to oversee the proceedings and ensured that both men signed the dotted line to make the match and stipulation official. After a war of words, both men did indeed sign the necessary paperwork and Heyman officially declared the match would take place, with one man's contract being terminated as a result of a loss. But when has a contract signing ever gone without a hitch? Dean Ambrose lunged across the tables and tackled Hardy to the ground, forcing the former World Champion to have to fight back. Ultimately, it ended with Ambrose driving his rival through the contract table with a vicious powerbomb, leaving Hardy laying. The Lunatic Fringe smirked as he looked down at his foe and mockingly gestured with his hand the very same gesture that Jeff Hardy uses. One way or another, one of these men will be forced to leave The Land of Extreme.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/3x1KDch.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/3x1KDch.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Aleister Black def. Killian Dain</b></div></p><p> The match that was supposed to take place weeks ago as part of the ECW Television Championship Tournament, finally rescheduled for tonight. And mysteriously, Bray Wyatt had ordered the rest of The Family to stay away from ringside, declaring moments before the match he wanted to "observe Aleister Black" before their Steel Cage bout at One Night Stand this Sunday. The Dutch Destroyer pulled out all the stops and showed off a very focused offence after being absent for a few weeks, eventually finishing off The Beast of Belfast with the Black Mass. Aleister Black stood tall over Dain and looked up to the aisle where The Family had assembled before him. Wyatt simply spread his arms wide and began laughing maniacally. When these two collide inside the steel cage, it is sure to be a wild ride if anything.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/o5qKJlh.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/o5qKJlh.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Finn Bálor vows to bring The Demon to One Night Stand as Johnny Gargano addresses the ECW faithful</b></div></p><p> No Tommaso Ciampa. No #DIY. Johnny Gargano came to the ring tonight alone, surprising many of the ECW faithful, but it was clear that the number one contender wanted this address to come directly from him. Firstly, he explained why he was alone, claiming that this isn't about anybody else but him. Johnny Wrestling declared that he had scratched and clawed his way to every opportunity he has ever got, and has always done good by everyone else. "But where has that got me?" he asked. He went on to say that while many have turned their back on him after what he did to get this opportunity, he didn't care because this was his chance to claim what he believes is rightfully his. "This Sunday, Finn Bálor loses the ECW World Championship. And I gain the respect I deserve" he bellowed. But before he could continue, the lights began to flicker, and the titantron jolted into action, showing a darkened corridor in the arena. Suddenly, the camera panned to show what can only be described as The Demon. The ECW faithful went crazy as he began to speak. "Johnny... this Sunday... you will be forced to atone for your sins... you won't just be facing Finn Bálor at ECW One Night Stand... you'll be standing face-to-face... with The Demon" he snarled as he spread his arms out wide. The titantron then shut off leaving Gargano looking flustered. The number one contender scanned around the arena with rage in his eyes as the show came to an end. We now know that Johnny Gargano will be going head-to-head with not just Finn Bálor... but The Demon King himself.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

The Nature Boy made his anticipated return to the explosive brand after taking a short hiatus to recover from his match with The Velveteen Dream at WCW SuperBrawl. The 16-time World Champion was overcome with emotion as chants of "Nature Boy" filled the arena, thanking the WCW Universe for their support. Wasting no time kicking things off, the Hall of Famer revealed his intentions to make sure that WCW Nitro is the best brand it can be, and the superior show of the New Era. With that said, he announced a first-time ever main event that will see the number one contender to the WCW World Championship, Seth Rollins take on The Velveteen Dream! And not only that, but we will also see The Undisputed ERA compete as one whole unit to take on Ricochet, The War Raiders and the Cruiserweight Champion, Ali in a huge Eight-Man Tag Team match. Tonight will be a night to remember, that's for sure. Welcome back, Ric!</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ZdkBGkS.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ZdkBGkS.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Charlotte Flair & Lacey Evans def. Asuka & Kairi Sane</b></div></p><p> Just moments after the return of her father, Charlotte Flair made her own impact by making her own return to WCW Nitro after her absence last week. She surprisingly came to the assistance of Lacey Evans, acting as her tag team partner against the team of Asuka and Kairi Sane. The Queen and The Lady seemed to be a match made perfect as they were able to defeat the Japanese pair, finishing the match with Charlotte forcing Sane into submission with the Figure-Eight Leglock. In a strange turn of events, Flair and Evans stood side-by-side, apparently forming what seems to be an alliance, and a dominant one at that.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/WyWP7xc.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/WyWP7xc.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Samoa Joe def. Kalisto</b></div></p><p> At the request of Kalisto himself, this match took place after Samoa Joe's vicious assault on The Lucha House Party last week. The luchadore put the happy-go-lucky attitude aside for tonight as he looked to get revenge on behalf of his allies, but it didn't turn out quite as he had hoped. The Destroyer was clearly still in a foul mood, and his aggression didn't let up as he dismantled his adversary, delivering several stiff shots, keeping the high-flyer grounded. And finally, the Samoan Submission Machine was able to put Kalisto away with a devastating Muscle Buster for the victory. Samoa Joe stood tall over his victim once again, raising his hand as the victor. When will Samoa Joe's chaotic rampage come to an end?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/sx8bLz9.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/sx8bLz9.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Drew McIntyre guarantees victory over Seth Rollins in next week's WCW World Championship bout</b></div></p><p> The Scottish Psychopath decided it was time to directly address his number one contender, Seth Rollins and definitely didn't mince his words in doing so. The WCW World Champion declared his superiority over the rest of the locker room, claiming that Seth Rollins' glory is merely temporary, as he will be destroyed and thrown to the bottom of the pile once he is finished with him. Referring back to last week's main event, McIntyre stated that he would have defeated AJ Styles regardless of The Velveteen Dream's involvement, just like he will defeat Seth Rollins next week. "I have always been The Chosen One, and now I am the King" he bellowed, "But you will not slay me, Seth Rollins". McIntyre will no doubt be watching tonight's main event closely as his challenger goes head-to-head with The Velveteen Dream.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/gEY3X9h.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/gEY3X9h.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Undisputed ERA def. Ricochet, The War Raiders & Cruiserweight Champion Ali</b></div></p><p> It has boiled down to this, after weeks of chaos, all eight men competed in one match. The Undisputed ERA went head-to-head with their enemies as Ricochet, Ali and The War Raiders united as one, hoping to vanquish the dominant force that The Undisputed ERA presents. The strange combination of talented athletes took the black and yellow quartet to the limit, but when it came to experience as a unit, Adam Cole's group had an upper hand. After O'Reilly and Fish took out The War Raiders on the outside, the two high-flyers, Ricochet and Ali went head-to-head with Cole and Strong. But The One and Only would crash and burn when Cole dragged Strong out of the way of a 630 Senton attempt. This left the Cruiserweight Champion to take the fall, receiving a Last Shot from the United States Champion for the win. The Undisputed ERA stood tall to end the match, having defeated their adversaries, despite a valiant effort. Tonight was not the night of good defeating evil, it was simply the night of Undisputed.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ZEab7HD.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ZEab7HD.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Rey Mysterio def. Dolph Ziggler</b></div></p><p> The Master of the 619 resurfaced on a night full of returns to the ring, and went up against Dolph Ziggler in singles action. The former World Champions clashed with pride on the line, hoping to make their next impact and impress the powers that be, but when it was all said and done, it was the legendary luchadore that walked away with the winning fall. After a Zig Zag attempt was unsuccessful, Mysterio tripped up The Show-off, landing him in the precarious position of the middle rope. Mysterio struck with his signature 619 and then delivered a Frog Splash from the top rope in homage to the late, great Eddie Guerrero. Three seconds later and Mysterio's hand was raised in victory. The Biggest Little Man stood tall as WCW Nitro continued, looking forward to his next move.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/E9oBLQk.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/E9oBLQk.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Andrade "Cien" Almas interrupts Sting's WCW Universe address</b></div></p><p> The Icon has returned. Making his official in-ring return last week, defeating Elias, the Hall of Famer came to the ring tonight on WCW Nitro to address the WCW Universe and delighted them with the news that he is here to stay. Refusing to give in until he is physically unable to continue, the Stinger made a promise that he would have one last run to the top, and claim the WCW World Championship one more time. However, this emotional moment was ruined when Andrade "Cien" Almas and Zelina Vega crashed the party. The self-proclaimed "Pride of Mexico" rudely mocked the legend, howling as Sting would usually do himself. Vega stepped forward and spoke for her client, stating that Andrade had already proven himself more than a legend by defeating Rey Mysterio at WCW SuperBrawl. But now that another challenge raises its head, the former NXT Champion looked to add another legend to his list. Claiming that Andrade deserves a WCW World Championship opportunity before a "washed-up has-been" like Sting, Vega made it clear that The Icon would have to deal with El Idolo first. Sting responded in kind, inviting Almas to come to the ring and let him shove his baseball bat where the sun doesn't shine! However, Vega declined and explained that Andrade only competes on his own terms. The pair left to boos from the crowd as Sting shrugged his shoulders having laid out the challenge. Something tells us this isn't the last we have heard of this situation.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/1SXbqLA.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/1SXbqLA.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Shinsuke Nakamura def. Elias</b></div></p><p> All Elias may have gained from challenging Sting last week may be bad luck. The Living Truth returned to action this week, hoping to redeem himself after his loss to The Icon, only to suffer yet another defeat, this time at the hands of The King of Strong Style, Shinsuke Nakamura. Elias attempted to fight back and even came close to defeating The Rockstar by rolling him up with a handful of tights. However, Nakamura kicked out bad followed it up with a Kinshasa to secure the win. Whether it's a streak of poor luck or a "creative block" on the part of The Sinister Songsmith, he's going to have to go back to the drawing board.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/KHyg6QX.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/KHyg6QX.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>EC3 def. Cedric Alexander</b></div></p><p> The continued rise of EC3 has caught the attention of the entire WCW Universe, and it rolled right through this week's episode as he picked up yet another victory over Cedric Alexander. The Top 1% finished the high-flying superstar off with his signature One Percenter, sealing the deal. Moments after the final bell, EC3 grabbed a microphone and addressed the world, reminding everyone that he is indeed The Top 1%, and nobody can touch him. Bold words, but he currently has the record to back it up.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/bMxTbLE.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/bMxTbLE.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Shane McMahon welcomes Ric Flair back to WCW Nitro but reveals that he intends to stick around</b></div></p><p> The Nature Boy may be back in charge, but it seems that Shane McMahon may have settled into the role a bit too much during his tenure as General Manager while Flair took time away to recover. The Prodigal Son approached Flair backstage to welcome him back to the explosive brand, but also informed the Hall of Famer that he intended to stick around on WCW Nitro as he "kind of enjoyed it". Looking confused, Flair explained that Shane McMahon was always welcome on WCW Nitro, to which Shane-O-Mac responded, "I know" before taking his leave. What are Shane McMahon's motives for staying on WCW Nitro? Does he even need any? After all, this is still very much the McMahon's world.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/d2cmGkV.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/d2cmGkV.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Seth Rollins def. The Velveteen Dream via disqualification; Rollins and Styles take the fight to McIntyre and The Dream</b></div></p><p> As announced by Ric Flair at the top of the show, this first time ever bout headlined this week's edition of WCW Nitro, and also acted as Seth Rollins' last chance to gain momentum heading into his WCW World Championship opportunity against Drew McIntyre next week. The two competitors went back-and-forth for the most part and both came close to securing the victory, but just as The Architect looked ready to "burn it down" with a Stomp, he was blindsided by The Scottish Psychopath who clubbed him over the back of the head with the World title belt. The official had no choice but to call for the ring bell, but this didn't stop McIntyre and The Velveteen Dream unleashing a post-match beatdown on the number one contender. Luckily for Rollins, a Phenomenal ally would emerge to make the save. AJ Styles rushed to the ring and evened the odds, making sure to get his hands on The Dream who attacked him during last week's main event, returning the favour in kind. Styles flew over the ropes to take the flamboyant superstar to the floor while The Kingslayer bounced back and delivered his signature Stomp to the WCW World Champion. He and AJ Styles stood side-by-side in union as The Dream and McIntyre reluctantly retreated. Next week, Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre will clash with the WCW World Championship on the line. Who will walk out in possession of the big gold belt?</div></div></p>

Just like WCW and ECW before it, WWE Raw will have its own brand-exclusive event in three weeks - WWE No Mercy. But that wasn't the only announcement that Triple H had to make, as he revealed the main event of that very pay-per-view would be a WWE World Championship Match between "The New" Daniel Bryan... and Brock Lesnar. The WWE Universe were not too happy at the decision, but The King of Kings declared that this would be "best for business". However, one person who had something to say was the General Manager, Stone Cold Steve Austin. The Texas Rattlesnake stormed to the ring and confronted his old rival, claiming that the suit and tie had gone to The Game's head. Austin explained that he understood that Triple H's role within the industry had changed, but he was still appointed as the General Manager of WWE Raw, and that's why he's going to insert another element into this blockbuster main event - Roman Reigns. A roar exploded from the WWE Universe, as The Game's face crunched up in a rage. He reminded Austin who his boss was and got up in the face of the Hall of Famer, before slowly stepping back and regaining his cool. "Alright, you can have your way, Austin. But under one condition" explains HHH, "If Roman Reigns wants another shot at the WWE World Championship, then he must earn it". The Game declared that Roman Reigns would compete in tonight's main event - against the WWE World Champion, Daniel Bryan! If he is victorious, he will be added to the main event of WWE No Mercy. Can The Big Dog beat The Planet's Champion with a title shot up for grabs?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/qV7SXUS.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/qV7SXUS.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Roman Reigns to fight for his golden opportunity against "The New" Daniel Bryan</b></div></p><p> As announced by Triple H, Roman Reigns will have to earn his place in the No Mercy WWE World Championship Match by defeating the reigning Champion in non-title action.

They repeated their actions this week, inserting themselves into a match between long-time rivals, The New Day and The Usos, attacking both teams and standing tall yet again after hitting a Shatter Machine on Xavier Woods. The WWE Tag Team Champions stood over the carnage and declared that the "tag team purge" had begun. Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder are taking no prisoners.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/B8Yv7hQ.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/B8Yv7hQ.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>"Glorious" Robert Roode def. Apollo Crews</b></div></p><p> The rise of The Glorious One has been a focal point of WWE Raw the last couple of weeks, and his success rolled over into tonight's episode. However, not quite in the way that many would appreciate. As opposed to his previous two victories that were fairly decisive, Apollo Crews gave Roode a run for his money, coming close to defeating the former Intercontinental Champion after hitting him with an impressive standing moonsault. But Roode was not about to let his resurgence end like that, and pulled out the old underhanded tactics, rolling Crews up and grasping a handful of tights out of the view of the official, securing himself a cheap win. The Glorious One quickly fled ringside with a grin from ear-to-ear as Crews looked on in disappointment, the WWE Universe just as upset with the result. If that's why Robert Roode is "glorious", then he has a very different idea of it than we do.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/6tJk3ht.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/6tJk3ht.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Women's World Champion Becky Lynch & Ronda Rousey def. Alexa Bliss & Mickie James</b></div></p><p> A strange encounter with Ronda Rousey last week left The Man confused, as The Rowdy One gave her some "friendly advice" ahead of her title defence at ECW One Night Stand against Shayna Baszler. This week, Rousey and Lynch once again crossed paths, but in tag team action as the former UFC Champion came to the side of the Women's World Champion as she faced a 2-on-1 situation against Alexa Bliss and Mickie James. The pair worked together to defeat their adversaries and picked up a victory with Lynch forcing James to submit to the Dis-Arm-Her. Moments after the bell, Rousey raised Becky's hand and applauded her before leaving, giving us yet another confusing and awkward moment. "I got your back" shouted Rousey as she left up the aisle, The Man staring out in confusion. Say what you will, but Ronda Rousey seems to be very supportive of the current Women's World Champion.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/4rYEhOk.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/4rYEhOk.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>An old rivalry renewed for one-on-one bout later tonight!</b></div></p><p> When chaos broke out after a match between Baron Corbin and Tyler Bate last week, John Cena and his old rival, The Miz ended up coming to blows.

The Planet's Champion claimed that he is the victim of a conspiracy, and has been unfairly treated as World Champion. Declaring himself "the only true worthy Champion", he stated that Brock Lesnar had done nothing to earn a shot at the WWE World Championship, and certainly doesn't deserve it based off his work ethic. Bryan reminds everyone that he puts his body on the line day in, day out for little to no appreciation, while Brock Lesnar comes and goes as he pleases. He then moves on to tonight's main event against Roman Reigns, declaring that of all people, Reigns doesn't deserve another opportunity. Growling into the camera, Daniel Bryan bellowed that he is "the greatest wrestler of all time" and would remain WWE World Champion until he breathes his last breath. The Planet's Champion stormed off the screen having made his point clear.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/PJPz33S.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/PJPz33S.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Braun Strowman def. Breezango in a 2-on-1 Handicap Match</b></div></p><p> Handicap matches are generally used as a way of punishing a superstar. But not this one. This one was actually requested by Braun Strowman. Following his huge victory over Randy Orton in last week's Street Fight main event, The Monster Among Men was back on the hunt for competition, and was presented with Fandango and Tyler Breeze in this 2-on-1 bout. The monstrous competitor bulldozed his way through the competition, crushing both members of The Fashion Police and ultimately finishing Fandango off with a thunderous running powerslam. After the match, The Monster Among Men demanded some more competition, stating that he needed more victims.

John Cena</b></div></p><p> This highly anticipated encounter was finally upon us, and right from the get-go, The Miz was already getting in the head of the 16-time World Champion, reminding them of their WrestleMania 27 encounter. But Cena wasn't about to let The A-Lister take control, and unleashed a flurry of shots on his adversary. The match went back-and-forth with the former World Champions going at it tooth and nail. However, as The Cenation Leader looked to be closing in on a victory, measuring his opponent for an Attitude Adjustment, his recent rival, Baron Corbin emerged and jumped onto the ring apron to distract him. Cena rushed towards The Lone Wolf and sent him crashing to the arena floor, but the damage had been done as The Miz quickly struck and delivered a Skull-Crushing Finale, pinning Cena for the victory. The pair stood over the iconic competitor, but before they could do any further damage, Tyler Bate arrived with steel chair in hand! The British superstar chased the attackers away, Miz and Corbin retreating up the aisle with smirks on their faces as Bate tended to his fallen friend.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/wyU5GAj.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/wyU5GAj.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Chad Gable def.

Chad Gable went into action against Mike Kanellis tonight on WWE Raw and pulled out all the stops, showing off his ability in the ring. But it was the end of the bout that got people talking, as Gable took a page out of his mentor's book, applying the Ankle Lock and forcing Kanellis into submission. Redeeming his loss to Bobby Lashley last week, Gable celebrated with Kurt Angle in the ring. Meanwhile, The All Mighty and his adviser, Lio Rush watched on a monitor backstage before Rush stated that they would show Angle and Gable who the true pure athletes on WWE Raw are.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/sUXASaZ.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/sUXASaZ.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>John Cena and Tyler Bate unite to take on their rivals, Baron Corbin and The Miz next week!</b></div></p><p> The past few weeks have seen the rivalries between John Cena and Baron Corbin, and The Miz and Tyler Bate become intertwined.

WWE World Champion "The New" Daniel Bryan to be added to the main event of WWE No Mercy</b></div></p><p> The Big Dog had his chance, thanks to Stone Cold Steve Austin who lobbied for Roman Reigns to be added after Triple H initially scheduled the main event of WWE No Mercy to be a one-on-one bout between Daniel Bryan and Brock Lesnar. Austin's intervention paid off as Reigns went into a hard-hitting battle against The Planet's Champion. Bryan battled with The Big Dog to the very end, trying to do whatever he could to keep him out of the WWE World Championship picture. But he was ultimately unsuccessful in his attempts as Reigns capitalised on a missed attempt for a running knee, following it up with a Spear to secure the victory. As Reigns emotionally celebrated his victory, now realising he now had the opportunity to capture the WWE World Championship, he was interrupted by the arrival of the third element of the situation - Brock Lesnar. The Beast initially stormed towards the ringside area, but stopped before the ring apron, instead opting to step back and simply smirk at The Big Dog. Reigns invited Lesnar into the ring, but the former World Champion turned away and left to boos from the WWE Universe. Lesnar will no doubt show up for WWE No Mercy, but he doesn't fight on anyone else's terms. Only his.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

Ambrose opened tonight's show to declare his return, and explained that he had to take time away to rethink and recalculate his approach. The result? Still as crazy as ever. The former World Champion stated that he has no gameplan, he has no tactics, he's simply here to seek and destroy, and that's what he intends to do to Jeff Hardy. He laid out the official challenge, calling for one last match at ECW One Night Stand to settle it all. "Come on, Mr. Daredevil. Take a risk. Fight me one last time" he snarled.

The more experienced Man Beast went right to work, continuing to display the all-new aggression we have seen from him these last few weeks, keeping Dunne at bay. But when the ECW faithful began to rally behind the Bruiserweight, he used that energy to battle back and even the odds. But just as Rhyno looked to be homing in on a victory with his signature Gore, Dunne was able to leapfrog the devastating move and send the former ECW World Champion into the steel post. Capitalising on the situation, Dunne planted his adversary with the Bitter End and picked up a momentous win, having defeated a former World Champion and advancing to the finals of the ECW Television Championship Tournament. "Bruiserweight!" chanted the crowd as Dunne celebrated his well-earned victory, much to the fury of Rhyno. But the question is now, who will he face at ECW One Night Stand? Will it be Lars Sullivan, or Rob Van Dam?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/Bu8RMoY.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/Bu8RMoY.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Candice LeRae & Dakota Kai def.

Not only will the Women's World Championship be defended at ECW One Night Stand in two weeks, but the female extremists have flourished since arriving on the brand. Candice LeRae and Dakota Kai partnered up tonight to take on Sarah Logan and Liv Morgan of The Riott Squad, and were able to topple the dominant duo as their leader, Ruby Riott watched on. After sending Morgan crashing to the floor on the outside, they were able to isolate Logan and hit her with an impressive combination that culminated in a tandem kick to secure the win. LeRae and Kai are just two of the names at the forefront of ECW's women's movement, and later tonight, it continues as the number one contender to the Women's World Championship, Shayna Baszler will be in action.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/azsYUtM.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/azsYUtM.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Aleister Black sends a sinister warning to The Family and vows to show them what Evil truly is</b></div></p><p> The formation of The Family has sent shockwaves through The Land of Extreme, especially for their prime target, Aleister Black. But this week, it was The Dutch Destroyer that made his way to the ring, sending chills down the spines of each and every hardcore faithful in attendance. With a much more sinister expression, Aleister Black sat cross-legged in the center of the ring and made a direct statement to The Family. "You may have embodied the supernatural. You may have gained control of the darkness. You may have freed your minds from reality. But what you have not done, is experienced true Evil" he declared, glaring directly into the camera. Black stated that he would come to ECW One Night Stand for a war, and challenged the leader, Bray Wyatt to a match at the big event. But not just any match. The Evil One laid it all on the line and challenged him to a Steel Cage Match! The Harbinger of Fury and The Eater of Worlds inside the confines of a steel cage?

The Lunatic Fringe returned to cost Hardy the match, and at the top of tonight's show, emerged to challenge Jeff Hardy to a One Last Time encounter at ECW One Night Stand. The Charismatic Enigma went into action against Rusev, picking up the victory with a huge Swanton Bomb and sending Rusev Day packing to the back. Moments after the closing bell, Hardy grabbed a microphone and addressed Ambrose's challenge, accepting without any hesitation. He said he would see The Lunatic Fringe at One Night Stand, for one last time, and this time, it will end one way or another, because he wants to add a stipulation to the epic collision - Loser Leaves ECW!

But Harper and Rowan aren't exactly ones to back down from a challenge, as the monstrous duo vowed to crush The Dudleyz at their own game. And in a sort of preview, the big men decimated the team of Tye Dillinger and Zack Ryder tonight, even sending a message to their challengers by putting both of them through a table. Rowan planted Ryder through the wood via a chokeslam over the ropes and down to the arena floor, while Dillinger fell victim to a powerbomb from Harper inside the ropes. But at ECW One Night Stand it will be different, as the match is over the moment somebody is driven through a table.

Last week, Sami Zayn returned from an injury sustained at the hands of his former best buddy, Kevin Owens and unleashed all hell on the former World Champion in the process. This week, The Prizefighter made his way to the ring and stood before the ECW faithful, looking surprisingly remorseful. He began by saying he understands what Zayn did to him last week, and he wanted to come out and set the record straight by apologising. The entire arena was confused, where had this emotion come from? But then it became clear, as Owens explained that he apologises for not crushing Sami's throat enough to keep him away for good. KO began shouting, claiming that Zayn was always holding him back, and he doesn't even deserve to be in the same arena as him, blaming him for causing him to lose the ECW World Championship. "You're a disease, Sami!" he bellowed to boos from the ECW faithful. But suddenly, The Underdog from the Underground appeared and the crowd went wild. Like last week, Zayn unleashed a furious attack on his former ally, brawling with him all around the ringside area. The fight once again got out of hand and officials had to rush down to separate the two. Zayn could be heard screaming "I'll see you at One Night Stand, you son of a bitch!" as he was pulled away. Owens wiped the blood from his mouth, his face red with rage, glaring at his old buddy. These two are going to fight til the end, and it seems like it will happen at ECW One Night Stand. One of these men, will not walk out the same.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/1s1LJoi.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/1s1LJoi.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Lars Sullivan def. Rob Van Dam to advance to the finals of the ECW Television Championship Tournament</b></div></p><p> Pete Dunne secured his place in the finals earlier tonight, and now it was time to find out who his opponent would be. And how fitting that Rob Van Dam had the opportunity to get his hands on The Freak after suffering beatings from Sullivan in recent weeks. The former World Champion had the crowd behind him as he looked to topple the monstrous competitor, using his agility to stay out of the clutches of his larger opponent. But with Drew Gulak by ringside, it was easier said than done. As RVD took to the top rope, appearing to prepare for his signature Five-Star Frog Splash, Gulak grabbed his legs, refusing to let go. The Whole F'n Show kicked Gulak from the apron, sending him crashing to the floor, but it was enough to allow Sullivan to regroup and grab Van Dam from the top and plant him with a Freak Accident to secure the victory. The monster had advanced to the finals of the ECW Television Championship Tournament, and we now know that he will take on Pete Dunne for the gold at ECW One Night Stand. Can the Bruiserweight outmatch such a powerful monster? Drew Gulak certainly thinks not, stepping into the ring and declaring Sullivan the uncrowned ECW Television Champion. And looking at the undefeated streak of The Freak, it's hard to argue that point at all.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/Az01WGI.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/Az01WGI.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Shayna Baszler def. Natalya; Becky Lynch gets extreme</b></div></p><p> The Queen of Spades made her intentions clear last week when she interrupted and attacked the Women's World Champion, Becky Lynch during her very first appearance on ECW. Baszler will now challenge Becky for the title at ECW One Night Stand. But in the meantime, she continued to show her dominance, picking up a victory over a former Women's Champion, Natalya by forcing her to submit to the Kirifuda Clutch. But as the number one contender celebrated her win, she was blindsided by her One Night Stand opponent, Becky Lynch herself. The Man arrived with a steel chair, showing that she could get extreme if the moment called for it, cracking Baszler over the back of the head with the steel. The Women's World Champion stood tall to the delight of the ECW faithful and held both her Championship and the steel chair above her head as Baszler reluctantly retreated up the aisle. "Your move, Shayna" yelled Becky.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/e60JlDS.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/e60JlDS.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Family deliver a horrifying warning to Aleister Black</b></div></p><p> Aleister Black may have issued the challenge earlier tonight, but The Family certainly had the last laugh. In the eerie surroundings of The Wyatt Compound, Bray Wyatt and Eric Young emerged to directly address The Dutch Destroyer and his Steel Cage challenge. Young questioned Black's "SAnitY" for issuing such a challenge, and promised that he would live to regret it until the day he dies. The Eater of Worlds stepped forward and guaranteed that hell would be opened at ECW One Night Stand, and Aleister Black's soul would be devoured within the confines of the steel cage. "You claim to be capable of Evil acts, Aleister. But you forget, that Evil was created by The Reaper. I am The Reaper. And your time on this Earth has come to its end... run". Nikki Cross suddenly burst onto the screen and screamed into the camera before everything cut to black. The war is on, and some dark forces will be present when these two collide.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/RC6vOr5.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/RC6vOr5.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Tommaso Ciampa def. Kassius Ohno; Johnny Gargano locks Finn Bálor in the Gargano Escape</b></div></p><p> The dynamic of #DIY has dominated the ECW World Championship scene, and that continued tonight as Tommaso Ciampa was able to take down Kassius Ohno. The Knockout Artist put up a valiant effort, fighting for himself and Finn Bálor, but when the number one contender arrived on the scene and delivered a superkick to the jaw of KO, it was all but over. Tommaso Ciampa hit the Fairy Tale Ending and picked up the victory, standing side-by-side with Johnny Wrestling in celebration. But even after the bell, the pair continued to beat down on The Knockout Artist, until the ECW World Champion, Finn Bálor arrived to even the odds. However, it seemed that this was the plan all along, as #DIY were ready for Bálor's arrival, drilling him with a double superkick and then laying him out with a Meeting in the Middle. The number one contender dragged his adversary to the outside and locked him in a Gargano Escape, wrenching away as The Extraordinary Man screamed in pain. The Psycho Killer held off the official from breaking the hold as Gargano continued to apply pressure. Tonight's ECW came to an uncomfortable close as the Gargano Escape took hold.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

The Architect made his way to the ring this week and directly addressed the reigning Champion, Drew McIntyre and in the process revealed that he would be challenging for the big gold belt in just two weeks on WCW Nitro. Explaining why he felt it was his calling to capture the WCW World Championship, Rollins declared that the support he has received from the WCW Universe has been overwhelming, and he's not just going to do it for himself, but for them. "I have fought through thick and thin to earn my place at the top" he stated, "and now's my chance to top it all off". The former World Champion promised that he would fight to the end to add the prestigious title to his resume, whether Drew McIntyre liked it or not. The Sinister Scot will be in action in tonight's main event against the former Champion, AJ Styles, and you have to know that Seth Rollins will be watching intently.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/6PCw2Sm.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Cruiserweight Champion Ali & The War Raiders def. The Undisputed ERA</b></div> Shane McMahon's arrival as Ric Flair's temporary replacement didn't just shake up the WCW World Championship picture, but also left a sour taste in the mouths of The Undisputed ERA. Not only did he force Adam Cole to defend his United States Championship tonight, but he also kept his allies busy, informing them that they would take on Cruiserweight Champion, Ali and The War Raiders in Six-Man Tag Team action. And unluckily for them, it didn't go their way. The high-flying Ali was able to secure the victory over Roderick Strong with an 054 Splash as Hanson and Rowe kept O'Reilly and Fish at bay on the outside. With this win, no doubt Ali has solidified his position as the leader of the cruiserweight division, but also, perhaps The War Raiders have landed themselves an opportunity for the WCW Tag Team Championships in the near future? Who knows? Maybe Shane McMahon will provide the answers.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/MrXDznr.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Icon, Sting returns to action to take on Elias - tonight!</b></div> His shocking return at WCW SuperBrawl raised the question - is Sting back for good? Well, he's certainly back for now at least, accepting the challenge laid out by The Living Truth last week for a return bout tonight. Will Sting be able to put an end to Elias' tune, or will Elias play The Icon's swansong for the last time?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/hpgGapX.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>EC3 def. Sin Cara</b></div> Last week, EC3 came to WCW Nitro with one goal - to win. Refusing to sit in the shadows any longer, he was able to defeat R-Truth with relative ease, showing off a more focused and aggressive offence. The Top 1% picked up yet another victory this week, taking down the luchadore, Sin Cara with his One Percenter. Another win in the bag, EC3 seems to be getting his career back on track. What is next for the young superstar on WCW Nitro?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/DdGTa1q.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Andrade "Cien" Almas def. Shinsuke Nakamura</b></div> Ricochet walked out with the privilege of being the number one contender for the United States Championship, meaning that Andrade Almas and Shinsuke Nakamura came up short. But the show must go on, and both men looked to redeem their loss against one another. The King of Strong Style used his unique brand of offence to keep Almas out of the skies and on the canvas, but when Zelina Vega grabbed Nakamura's leg as he measured for the Kinshasa, this opened up the opportunity for Almas to strike, delivering a huge superkick and following it up with a Hammerlock DDT, spiking The Rockstar in the center of the ring and securing the victory. The self-proclaimed "Pride of Mexico" celebrated his win alongside Vega as they retreated up the aisle, leaving Nakamura to regroup. Vega continues to be Almas' ace in the hole, but for how long can she help him succeed before someone evens the odds?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/LJtEPMf.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Velveteen Dream demands another opportunity after blaming AJ Styles for his loss last week</b></div> Since the beginning of the New Era, The Velveteen Dream has been nothing short of trouble, and following his victory over The Nature Boy, Ric Flair at WCW SuperBrawl, has become even more unbearable. The flamboyant superstar burst into the office of Shane McMahon tonight to not ask, but demand another opportunity to challenge for the WCW World Championship, blaming AJ Styles for his loss last week as The Phenomenal One became out of control. The Prodigal Son took a step back to think about his demand, only to inform The Dream that the bout ended fair and square, and that Seth Rollins will be the number one contender no matter what. This didn't sit well with The Velveteen Dream who threatened Shane McMahon, citing what he did to WCW General Manager, Ric Flair just a couple of weeks ago. McMahon got in the face of The Dream and told him that he wouldn't threaten him if he knows what's good for him. The Dream simply smirked and brushed Shane's shoulder, telling him "Think it over" before leaving.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/ehTpwu7.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Asuka def. Lacey Evans via countout</b></div> The Lady of WCW may have bitten off more than she can chew by crossing Asuka and her friend, Kairi Sane. The Sassy Southern Belle went into action against The Empress of Tomorrow, but when things didn't appear to be going her way, she fled from the ring and refused to return. Asuka was about to apply her signature Asuka Lock, only for Evans to squirm out of the hold and rush up the aisle, waving her hands despite the officials orders to get back in the ring. The Lady was able to escape The Empress' clutches tonight, as she clearly wasn't ready for Asuka. But for how long can she run before the former Women's Champion avenges Lacey's actions on her best friend, Kairi Sane?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/it2fqwK.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Sting def. Elias</b></div> When his SuperBrawl performance was crashed by the legendary Sting, you would have assumed that Elias would shy away from disrespecting WCW, but it continued. The Living Truth even went as far as to challenge the returning legend to a match, and The Icon accepted. Returning to action for the first time in years, Sting stepped through the ropes and went head-to-head with The Sinister Songsmith, proving that he didn't have quite as much ring rust as Elias may have expected. The Vigilante delivered his signature Scorpion Death Drop to his adversary, followed up by a Scorpion Death Lock to seal the deal and force Elias into submission. The Icon had a successful return to action, and looked as good as ever in doing so. What lies ahead for Sting now that he is back on home turf? Could there be one more World Championship run in the Hall of Famer?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/GyxMEyF.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>AJ Styles take on WCW World Champion, Drew McIntyre in huge SuperBrawl rematch - tonight!</b></div> The Phenomenal One may have come up short last week, but he still gets the opportunity to avenge his loss at WCW SuperBrawl with a non-title rematch against the WCW World Champion, Drew McIntyre in tonight's huge main event. Can Styles redeem himself with a victory over The Sinister Scot, or will McIntyre once again stand tall over his Phenomenal foe?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/BWckfu1.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ricochet def. United States Champion Adam Cole via disqualification (Title retained)</b></div> Wherever The Undisputed ERA go, chaos usually follows. Tonight was no different as Adam Cole defended his United States Championship as per Shane McMahon's announcement last week, against the man who won the 8-Man Battle Royal for the right to be number one contender - Ricochet. The One and Only came within seconds of becoming the new Champ after hitting Cole with his incredible 630 Senton, but with alarm bells ringing in their heads, the rest of Undisputed hit the ring and attacked the challenger, forcing the official to call for the bell. Cole, Strong, Fish and O'Reilly unleashed an assault on Ricochet to the dismay of the WCW Universe, but the cavalry soon arrived in the form of The War Raiders and the Cruiserweight Champion, Ali. The odds were evened and all eight men engaged in an all-out brawl that had the crowd on their feet. All hell had broken loose, and officials flooded the ringside area to try and contain the carnage. The Undisputed ERA have now been matched man-for-man, and it may be time for them to get their just desserts.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/TktIs50.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Samoa Joe destroys Lucha House Party in a rage-fuelled attack</b></div> As the Lucha House Party were awaiting the arrival of their opponents for a scheduled six-man contest, they were confused to instead see the arrival of one Samoa Joe. With a foul expression on his face, he stormed to the ring and immediately began throwing the three luchadores around the ring with no explanation. The Destroyer - clearly infuriated by his loss in last week's main event - laid waste to Lince Dorado with a sickening powerbomb before launching him over the ropes. Gran Metalik tried to fight back on behalf of his allies, but also suffered a beating, signed off with a Muscle Buster into the canvas. Finally, Kalisto sprung from the top rope and had The Samoan Submission Machine reeling, but after missing a high-flying dive, Joe applied the Coquina Clutch and put Kalisto to sleep. The Destroyer stood tall over the carnage and screamed "I'm the toughest SOB around here!" before taking his leave to boos from the WCW Universe. Message received loud and clear - Samoa Joe is not happy at all.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/ixRjxrV.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Nature Boy returns to WCW Nitro next week!</b></div> It's been two weeks since Ric Flair lost to The Velveteen Dream at WCW SuperBrawl. Two weeks since The Nature Boy attended WCW Nitro as General Manager. Next week, the legend returns to office, and it's sure to be an exciting night as the 16-time World Champion exclusively revealed via WCW.com that he had big plans for the future of Nitro. What will Naitch have in store for the explosive brand when he makes his official return in just one week's time?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/OuyqzzF.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>WCW World Champion Drew McIntyre def. AJ Styles</b></div> A highly anticipated rematch, Drew McIntyre and AJ Styles went toe-to-toe for the first time since their epic clash at WCW SuperBrawl just two weeks ago. This non-title bout thrilled the WCW Universe as The Phenomenal One got his chance to get his hands on the man that arguably stole the WCW World Championship from him thanks to some questionable tactics and interference at the pay-per-view. The battle went back and forth until Styles was about to hit McIntyre with his signature Phenomenal Forearm, but instead connected with the official, knocking him out cold. And with the referee down, it opened the door for another Nitro superstar to make an unexpected appearance... The Velveteen Dream. The flamboyant competitor stormed to ringside and drilled Styles with McIntyre's World Championship belt before dragging him to the outside and bouncing him off the announce desk. In an act of anger from last week's main event result, The Dream laid waste to former World Champion and sent him back into the ring before waking up the official. The Scottish Psychopath regrouped and capitalised on the situation, delivering a Claymore kick and securing the victory. The WCW World Champion stood tall, his focus now allowed to be set on his future challenger, Seth Rollins. But meanwhile, The Velveteen Dream climbed into the ring and stood over the fallen Phenomenal One, looking down and shaking his head. He mounted Styles in the center of the ring and got right in his face, telling him "I'm the star, not you" and then raising his hands into the air to thunderous boos from the crowd. The Dream has struck, and Styles was his target.</div></div> <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

The WWE Raw General Manager made his return and kicked off this week's edition by addressing the recent events concerning the WWE World Championship. And without any hesitation whatsoever, Austin addressed Brock Lesnar's chaotic arrival, calling The Beast an "unwelcome guest". The Hall of Famer made it clear that he wasn't going to be intimidated by the former World Champion, and even went as far as to call him out. Lesnar obliged, making his way to the ring and standing face-to-face with Austin in a high-tension moment. As Stone Cold went on to directly address The Beast, he was cut off when Lesnar slapped the microphone out of Austin's hand and stepped closer to him, bringing the pair nose-to-nose. But before any harm could come to the General Manager, Roman Reigns exploded onto the scene and dropped Lesnar with a thunderous Spear. The Beast quickly rolled out of the ring and reluctantly retreated as Reigns stood beside Austin, staring a hole right through Lesnar. This is more than just a rivalry, this is personal.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/8R2l3Eg.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/8R2l3Eg.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Monster Among Men to square off with The Viper in a main event Street Fight</b></div></p><p> After weeks of heated confrontations and chaotic brawls, The Monster Among Men and The Viper will finally collide to settle the score in tonight's huge main event.

The 16-time World Champion showed off his lack of ring rust and put the former Intercontinental and United States Champion away with an Attitude Adjustment for the victory. Moments later, John Cena grabbed a microphone and addressed Baron Corbin, explaining that many people have come for him as the top dog, and many have failed in their attempts. "You want some? Come get some!" he bellowed as he warned Corbin that if he isn't ready, he will fall like the rest.

During a competitive tag team match between two of WWE Raw's most talented duos, the WWE Tag Team Champions decided that in the words of the late, great Owen Hart - enough is enough. Just as the WWE Universe seemed to be getting deeply invested into the contest, Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson struck out of nowhere, blindsiding both Tucker Knight and Montez Ford with their title belts. As the respective partners tried to save the day, they too were drilled with the gold, leaving The Revival to stand tall over their foes. The pair grabbed microphones and declared that they were taking no more crap from anybody, and their embarrassment had gone on long enough. Wilder stated that from now on, they rule the tag team division like they should, and nobody can stop them. Dawson signs it off with a remark that they revived tag team wrestling, and if they have to, they will kill the division as well. And with that, the pair picked up Montez Ford and delivered a sickening Shatter Machine for the final impact. The Revival certainly mean business, but how will the rest of the division react?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/05t18lK.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/05t18lK.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Bobby Lashley def.

But The All-Mighty was still able to escape the clutches of The Olympic Hero, leaving Rush to take the fall. Tonight, Lashley took on Gable in singles action as Kurt Angle looked on, cheering on in his new protege. Unfortunately, thanks to a brief distraction from Lio Rush on the outside, Gable was caught in position for a Dominator and planted into the canvas, giving Lashley the victory and another one-up over Angle. He and his adviser retreated from ringside with smug grins on their faces as Angle tended to his fallen ally.

Then, he moved onto the dangerous Brock Lesnar, showing no intimidation and declaring that Lesnar has done nothing to earn himself a shot, claiming that The Beast thinks he can walk in and take what he wants, but he's wrong. "I am The Big Dog! I am The Beast! I am the WWE World Champion!" he snarled, pumping his title into the air with each statement. Closing out, Bryan stated that he would remain the WWE World Champion as he is the only truly deserving superstar on this roster, and would tear the limbs from anyone who tried to take it from him.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/NfQYnJ9.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/NfQYnJ9.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Sonya Deville def. Bayley</b></div></p><p> The Boss was able to defeat Mandy Rose last week in the first clash between The Boss n Hug Connection and Absolution. Tonight, their allies collided in their own bout as Bayley took on Sonya Deville, with Banks and Rose looking on from ringside. The Huggable One took control of the match early on and things looked to be going the way of Bayley and Sasha once more, but when Mandy Rose jumped onto the apron to distract her adversary, it allowed Sonya Deville to capitalise. The Boss intervened and pulled Rose from the apron, but the distraction had already took hold and Deville delivered a thunderous roundhouse kick to pick up the victory. Absolution retreated with an excitable embrace as Banks tended to her fallen ally. It's all even now - will we see the two teams clash in tag team action soon?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/UHMv1gM.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/UHMv1gM.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Baron Corbin def. Tyler Bate; The Miz and John Cena join the chaos</b></div></p><p> After Tyler Bate's ballsy interruption of The Miz's Intercontinental Championship Celebration last week, the WWE Universe had nothing but respect for him. The former Champion who was wrongfully screwed out of his title by Triple H and The Miz just a few weeks ago, was forced to take on the recently returned Baron Corbin in singles action, and after John Cena had some strong words for The Lone Wolf earlier in the night, he was sure to be in a foul mood. Bate put up valiant effort against his opponent, but no matter how hard he fought, nothing could have helped him overcome the arrival of The Miz and Maryse at ringside. While the referee was momentarily distracted by Maryse, The A-Lister struck with his Intercontinental Championship, drilling Bate over the head and laying him out. Capitalising on the situation, Corbin delivered an End of Days to secure the win over the British superstar. But it didn't end there, as both Corbin and The Miz initiated a post-match attack on the unfortunate competitor, only for John Cena to arrive nad save the day. The 16-time World Champion hit the ring and The Lone Wolf quickly scarpered, wanting no part of The Cenation Leader just yet, instead leaving The Miz to take the full brunt of the attack. Cena sent The A-Lister crashing to the outside and tended to his fallen friend as he eyed up Corbin on the stage.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/GoqlmjH.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/GoqlmjH.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Triple H gives Roman Reigns a warning for his actions tonight and reveals a blockbuster announcement for next week</b></div></p><p> Talk about picking favourites. Roman Reigns had been summoned to the office of Triple H who gave The Big Dog a verbal grilling upon his entry. Claiming that Stone Cold Steve Austin was out of order, The Game went on to say that he will not tolerate Reigns' rebellious behaviour, and issues him with a verbal warning for his assault on Brock Lesnar. Before Reigns can even respond, the authority figure revealed that Reigns would need to be paying full attention next week when he makes a blockbuster announcement in front of the world. "Now get the hell out of my office" he growled as he and Reigns shared an intense staredown before the scene faded away. What will Triple H's announcement be?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/UyyOOKf.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/UyyOOKf.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>"Glorious" Robert Roode def. Gentleman Jack Gallagher</b></div></p><p> Refusing to be introduced as anything else, "Glorious" Robert Roode once again returned to action, this time to take on a fellow moustache man, Gentleman Jack Gallagher. The Brit was quickly met with the aggressive offence of The Glorious One early on, and Roode made quick work of his adversary, finishing him off with the Glorious DDT for the victory. After the match, Roode demanded a microphone and simply stated "Now <i>that</i> was GLORIOUS!" before throwing the mic down into his opponent. Robert Roode seems to have found his mojo, and everybody is becoming a victim of his "glorious" onslaught.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/V0xnWTN.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/V0xnWTN.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ronda Rousey warns Becky Lynch about the dangerous Shayna Baszler</b></div></p><p> As Becky Lynch travelled to The Land of Extreme for the first time, she found herself in the clutches of Shayna Baszler who stated her claim to the Women's World Championship, challenging The Man to a match at ECW One Night Stand. The Champ returned home to WWE Raw this week to address The Queen of Spades and promised that she would regret putting her name forward. But as Becky continued to direct her message towards Baszler, she was interrupted by Ronda Rousey. The Rowdy One confronted Lynch and warned her to be fully prepared for Shayna Baszler, claiming her to be an extremely dangerous competitor. The Man said she wasn't afraid of any woman, and will happily defend her title anywhere, but Rousey explained that she knows Baszler, and she's capable of taking whatever she wants, whenever she wants it. Of course, Becky Lynch continued to stand her ground and guaranteed a victory in the Hammerstein Ballroom in just two weeks. The Rowdy One then signed off by telling Becky "I hope you know what you're getting yourself into" before leaving the ring, an unusual atmosphere remaining in the arena. Why is Ronda Rousey so concerned for Becky Lynch?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/78frths.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/78frths.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Braun Strowman def. Randy Orton in a Street Fight</b></div></p><p> The blood has boiled between these two men, and it all came down to this. A one-on-one all-out brawl. The rivals collided and traded punch for punch as they hoped to be the one leaving as the better man tonight. It started off with Strowman using his significant power advantage to keep Orton grounded, dominating most of the early match. But when The Viper found an opening to escape the outside, he used his surroundings to his advantage, taking the fight into the crowd and using everything at his disposal to wear down the big man. Eventually, the brawl travelled all the way through the crowd back to the side of the stage where Orton continued his attack, managing to keep The Monster Among Men where he wanted him, and even shocked the world by driving the big man through the announce table with an RKO atop the stage for good measure. However, a problem arose. Now he had to get Braun Strowman back to the ring. This began a long and arduous journey back to ringside, hoisting a 300+ pound man-mountain down the aisle to secure the pinfall. But unfortunately, by the time The Viper had returned his prey to the ring, Strowman was already coming to, and erupted into a second wind of sorts, driving Orton into the canvas with not one, not two, but <i>three</i> running powerslams. The Monster Among Men hooked the leg and claimed the victory, standing tall over his fallen foe. It seems that the RKO simply awoke something within Braun Strowman, and he used that to crush The Viper beneath his feet. Strowman is indeed unstoppable, but the question now is, who is next in line to get these hands?</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

Thanks to the Royal Rumble victory of Drew McIntyre, WCW earned the right to host the first brand-exclusive event, and from that, SuperBrawl was reborn. A night filled with Championship opportunities, heated rivalries and a musical performance, it's safe to say that it will be a case of "anything can happen". But before the official start of the show, it was time for the Kickoff Show, and that meant that the rubber match between Shinsuke Nakamura and Dolph Ziggler was upon us.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/UYwpWyI.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/UYwpWyI.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Shinsuke Nakamura def. Dolph Ziggler (Kickoff Match)</b></div></p><p> Before WCW SuperBrawl officially got underway, the Kickoff Show featured the deciding bout between Shinsuke Nakamura and Dolph Ziggler. The pair had traded wins over the past couple of weeks, standing at one a piece, so this match was created to decide who truly is the better man. The King of Strong Style took control of the match early on, but was soon taken aback by The Show-off who dropped his adversary with a huge superkick, coming close to defeating him. However, when Ziggler attempted to hit the Zig Zag, Nakamura grabbed the top rope, dropping his opponent to the canvas and immediately followed it up with the devastating Kinshasa to secure the victory. It seems that The Rockstar is indeed the better man on this night, celebrating with the WCW Universe. But with that closing bell, it was time for the show to begin. Bring on the SuperBrawl!</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/94LH3re.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/94LH3re.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Velveteen Dream def. Ric Flair</b></div></p><p> When the New Era began, nobody could have expected that we would see The Nature Boy come out of retirement for a brand-exclusive pay-per-view event, but it seems that the Hall of Famer saw no alternative. The rebellious Velveteen Dream had pushed all the right buttons with the WCW Nitro General Manager and went so far as to attack the 16-time World Champion just because he wasn't getting his own way. Flair returned two weeks ago to get his hands on the young superstar and challenged him to this match tonight. But this wasn't the official General Manager talking, this was the former 16-time World Champion talking, and it showed as he made his way to the ring and prepared to do battle. The Dream was already getting in Flair's head by coming to the ring in his own personalised robe and "Woo!" covered attire, but The Nature Boy has been doing this long enough to know when to rise above. He immediately laid into his adversary with his signature chops, surprising The Dream who perhaps underestimated what Flair is still capable of. Although he did end up battling back and taking down Flair with a huge dropkick, taking a back seat and gathering his wits once again. He repeatedly mocked the legendary superstar with his signature strut and repetitive shouts of "Woo!" to the WCW Universe's dismay. But Flair used this to fuel the fire and was able to apply his patented Figure-Four Leglock, very nearly forcing his opponent to submit. But The Dream resorted to underhanded tactics, using The Dirtiest Player in the Game's own mantra to his advantage, delivering a thumb to the eye to escape the hold. The Velveteen Dream was then able to scale the turnbuckle and deliver his Purple Rainmaker elbow drop into the heart of the Hall of Famer to secure his victory. It may not be the result everyone wanted to see, but it showed that Flair still has plenty in the tank despite his age. However, The Dream rubbed the victory in everyone's face as expected, brushing off his hands over the fallen body of his adversary before taking his leave with a smug grin. He may be arrogant and brash, but you cannot deny that he just defeated a former 16-time World Champion and Hall of Famer.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/SJ4BtIv.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/SJ4BtIv.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Mustafa Ali def. Hideo Itami to retain the WCW Cruiserweight Championship</b></div></p><p> Mustafa Ali's Cruiserweight Championship reign hadn't had much time to even get off the ground before he was brutally assaulted by Hideo Itami, putting Ali on the shelf for a couple of weeks all because he was a sore loser. The Japanese superstar continued to show his aggression against various other opponents before Ali made his return and challenged Itami to a match tonight at WCW SuperBrawl to get his revenge. Of course, Itami accepted for his chance to capture the Cruiserweight Championship as well, and it didn't disappoint. Itami showed his new relentless attitude as he had been the past few weeks, but Ali was ready for him and had vengeance on his mind. He flew through the air to take out his adversary, but Itami responded with a sickening back suplex on the hard ring apron. However, Ali was the one who hit the final blow when he cut Itami off on the top rope and instead delivered an astounding Spanish Fly to pick up the victory. Mustafa Ali had not only got his measure of revenge, but had successfully retained his title for the first time.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/gSkTOK8.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/gSkTOK8.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ricochet def. Chris Jericho</b></div></p><p> It's no secret that Chris Jericho has been furious ever since Ricochet beat him in his debut match on WCW Nitro. Y2J took it upon himself to make an example out of the new up and comer leading to this match tonight, with Ricochet ready to prove that the first time wasn't just a fluke. Jericho did what he does best and gloated his way through, taunting the WCW Universe repeatedly throughout the match as he took control. But his arrogance may have come back to bite him as The One and Only used this to find an opportunity, battling back and even escaping a Lionsault by getting the knees up. After avoiding a Codebreaker by flipping over Y2J, he was able to take the former World Champion down and fly through the air with his signature 630 Senton to secure yet another victory over The King of the World. Proving that he deserves to stand with the best, Ricochet celebrated with the WCW Universe as Jericho became even more aggravated, taking his frustrations out on the official. A future World Champion no doubt, Ricochet is here to stay in WCW Nitro.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ZMEMZri.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ZMEMZri.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Seth Rollins def. Samoa Joe in a No Holds Barred Street Fight</b></div></p><p> The bad blood between Seth Rollins and Samoa Joe had boiled over to the point of no return, stemming from the very first episode of WCW Nitro when Rollins defeated Joe to advance to a WCW World Championship opportunity. The Destroyer made it his goal to destroy and dispose of Seth Rollins, vowing on many occasions to cripple him beyond repair. The Architect is never one to back down from a fight and this meant that chaos would follow, with both men refusing to back down and resulting in uncomfortable beatings and career-threatening situations. The pair agreed to compete against one another in a No Holds Barred Street Fight tonight to settle the score, and it wasn't long before the action got underway. In fact, it began even before the bell as Rollins lunged through the ropes during Joe's entrance to take his adversary down with a suicide dive. The fight quickly got out of hand, travelling across the arena and even into the crowd where both men used anything they could get their hands on to beat the other. Rollins drove a trash can into the skull of Joe at one point, only to himself receive a sickening chair shot to the skull which opened up his forehead. The battle eventually returned to the ring where Joe was able to apply the Coquina Clutch, but in what was an incredible moment, Rollins somehow managed to reach the ropes and drag himself out of the devastating hold. Using the ropes, he flew through the air with a knee strike and followed it up with the infamous Stomp, driving Joe skull-first into a blood-covered steel chair to put an end to this barbaric match. With blood, sweat and tears shed, it was Seth Rollins who stood tall in the end, despite not looking like much of a winner in appearance. Is it finally over between these two men?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/NAw6Zyt.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/NAw6Zyt.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Adam Cole def. Big Show to retain the WCW United States Championship</b></div></p><p> When Adam Cole issued an open challenge for his WCW United States Championship, he probably wasn't thinking of the possibility of it being answered by The World's LArgest Athlete. The giant returned to answer the call and tossed aside Cole's Undisputed ERA cohorts, confronting the Champion himself, and just last week he defeated Roderick Strong in singles action. Tonight, Cole didn't come alone as the Undisputed ERA leader was joined by Strong and the WCW Tag Team Champions, Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish. But with them restricted at ringside, Big Show was left to throw Cole around like he was a small child. It seemed as though it would be over quickly for a moment, but a slightly misstep on Big Show's part saw him knock down the official thanks to Cole pulling him into harms way. The Undisputed ERA saw this as the opening they needed and invaded the ring to issue a 3-on-1 assault on the giant. O'Reilly and Fish delivered the Total Elimination, allowing Cole to pick up the pieces and hit the Last Shot. The official was awoken by Roderick Strong and counted the three, giving Cole the shocking victory, meaning that he retained his title. This simply proves that no matter how big you are, there's always strength in numbers.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/NqYOj4B.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/NqYOj4B.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Andrade "Cien" Almas def. Rey Mysterio</b></div></p><p> Who is the very best luchadore in WCW Nitro? Well this battle between two incredible athletes was made to decide just that between themselves. The iconic Rey Mysterio - a former World Champion in his own right - would defend his honour against the up and coming Andrade Almas who claimed to be far greater than The Master of the 619 ever was. While it may have ended in a result not too desirable for Mysterio, he still displayed his unparalleled ability and showed that he isn't a novelty act - Rey Mysterio is still very much a top contender. The high-flying superstars collided in a fast-paced contest that saw both pull out all the stops with moves we have never even seen before. It was the former World Champion who looked to be taking control of the match as he dove through the ropes to deliver a thunderous dropkick to his adversary, and when the fight returned to the ring, he was able to connect with the legendary 619. However, Zelina Vega chose that exact moment to play her part, grabbing the foot of Mysterio and preventing him from taking to the skies. The distraction allowed Almas to recover and deliver a superkick to his rival, dragging him through the middle rope and delivering a sickening hangman Hammerlock DDT which led to a victory for the self-proclaimed "Pride of Mexico". He and Vega celebrated to the dismay of the WCW Universe as Mysterio slowly came to, realising what had happened. It may not be the result everybody wanted, but on this night, Andrade "Cien" Almas was indeed the better man.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/XiuTUwp.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/XiuTUwp.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Becky Lynch def. Charlotte Flair to retain the Women's World Championship</b></div></p><p> The women's division continues to grow, and now it has evolved into something quite spectacular. The Women's Royal Rumble last month crowned the first Women's World Champion who would defend her title across all three brands, and that lucky lady was Becky Lynch. The Man stood atop the mountain and basked in her glory, until The Queen looked to claim her throne at WCW SuperBrawl. Charlotte Flair issued the challenge and what began as a respectful rivalry soon turned physical as both women showed an incredible desire to leave tonight with the gold. They stood face-to-face before the WCW crowd and traded some verbal barbs before engaging in a physical trade-off of punches. Lynch delivered a Bexploder Suplex early on, hoping to put away her challenger in record time, but the daughter of The Nature Boy was not going to let that happening, battling back and eventually flying from the top rope to take down The Man with an amazing diving cross body to the outside. Flair maintained control and even saw an opening to apply the Figure-Eight Leglock, bringing Lynch close to submission. But the fire in Becky's heart grew and she fought out of the precarious situation and applied her own submission, the Dis-Arm-Her which would ultimately force The Queen to reluctantly slap the mat. The Women's World Champion had successfully defend her title for the first time and stood before a WCW crowd in celebration. The Queen sat up and held her head in her hands, but she had nothing to be ashamed of after putting up a valiant effort. The Man left with her gold over her shoulder as Charlotte Flair continued to look deflated following her loss.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/XXULsbR.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/XXULsbR.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Icon, Sting returns to crash Elias' disrespectful performance</b></div></p><p> While you can't deny Elias' in-ring ability, his musical talent leaves much to be desired. But that doesn't stop him performing, even if only for his own benefit. The Sinister Songsmith once again took to center stage to debut his brand new piece, preceding his performance with a short message to the WCW Universe, reminding them to silence their cellphones, hold their applause and shut their mouths. Upon getting into the musical moment, it became clear that this new song was written to specifically berate the history of WCW and its iconic superstars. From Goldberg and Ric Flair to Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage, he named them all and claimed to be greater than every one of them. The Living Truth went on to verbally attack anyone who supported WCW in its day, declaring that the brand was always better off dead. But no sooner had he begun the opening note of his next verse was he interrupted to the delight of the WCW Universe, and by a very familiar sound. The sound of the crow. Chills ran down the spines of everyone in attendance as the lights went out and Elias' eyes widened, witnessing the arrival of perhaps one of WCW's most iconic characters - The Icon, Sting. The former World Champion emerged from the stage in the iconic black and white and welded his signature baseball bat which he then pointed towards Elias. Sting approached the ring and came face-to-face with The Sinister Songsmith in a moment that seemed to freeze all time and space. Elias lunged at the legendary superstar for interrupting his moment, only to receive a shot with the black bat that many before him had also felt. The Icon then went on to deliver his signature Scorpion Death Drop to send Elias packing before celebrating with the WCW Universe. The Stinger is back, but is he back for good?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ewv4hGP.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ewv4hGP.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Drew McIntyre def. AJ Styles to become the new WCW World Champion</b></div></p><p> Traditionally, the winner of the Royal Rumble Match goes on to headline WrestleMania, but this time was different. With the beginning of a New Era, the Royal Rumble would not only grant the winner a World Championship shot at the next big event, but also give their respective brand the opportunity to be the first to host their own exclusive pay-per-view. And here we are, in the main event of WCW SuperBrawl as Drew McIntyre looks to take the WCW World Championship from AJ Styles. The big fight feel was definitely in the air tonight as these two talented superstars came face-to-face in front of an electric crowd. The opening moments were tense between the two men as they simply glared at one another before McIntyre made the first move, slapping Styles across the face. The Phenomenal One retaliated with a forearm shot, but was taken to the canvas and pummelled by The Scottish Psychopath. Styles fought back valiantly and hit a slingshot leg drop on his adversary, then pulling out an old favourite in the form of a Spiral Tap, hoping to put the challenger away. But it was going to take more than that to keep McIntyre down. The vicious competitor unleashed his rage on the WCW World Champion, eventually finding the right moment to hit a Future Shock DDT, and for a moment it seemed like a new Champion would be crowned, but Styles kicked out at two. The fight took to the outside as The Champs that Runs the Camp put his body on the line with a springboard cross body, taking out his Scottish opponent. It was then that things became chaotic as McIntyre's allies emerged. Cesaro and Sheamus - collectively known as The Bar - appeared at ringside to perhaps give an assist to their Celtic comrade, but they were quickly thwarted by the arrival of Styles' own companions, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson. The Good Brothers and The Bar brawled their way around ringside, competing in their own battle. But the scuffle seemed to act as a momentary distraction for The Phenomenal One as he took his eye off the ball just one second too long as he looked to deliver his patented Styles Clash. With the official also preoccupied with the outside events, McIntyre took the opportunity to deliver a thunderous low blow to the WCW World Champion, dropping him to his knees. This would then allow him to reverse into the corner and fly like a coiled spring into a devastating Claymore, laying his opponent out cold. "Get over here!" bellowed McIntyre to the official as he spun around and dropped to the canvas to count the shocking three. The Scottish Psychopath had done it. He is the new WCW World Champion. From Royal Rumble winner to WCW's top star, albeit through underhanded tactics. The vicious fighter stood over Styles' body with the WCW World Championship held high, much to the distaste of the WCW Universe. But that didn't matter, this was his night, and as far as he is concerned, this was always his destiny. After all, he was The Chosen One.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

Pete Dunne & Rob Van Dam</b></div> The ECW Television Championship Tournament is well underway as the first four competitors qualified for the second round last week. Those four extremists were thrust into tag team competition tonight, putting Kevin Owens and Rusev against Pete Dunne and Rob Van Dam. With all four men looking to gain an upper hand heading into next week's round of bouts, they threw all caution to the wind to claim the victory. But the presence of Aiden English and Lana at ringside on behalf of The Bulgarian Brute may have created enough of a distraction to allow Owens to bend the rules slightly, raking the eyes of Dunne as he attempted as Bitter End and instead finished him off with a Package Piledriver for the victory. After the match, KO and Rusev stood face-to-face, realising that their alliance was merely temporary, but RVD tended to the fallen Bruiserweight regardless. Which of these men will advance to the semi-finals next week?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/fnza8nF.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Rhyno def. No Way Jose to advance in the ECW Television Championship Tournament</b></div> And the tournament continued with the next set of four first round matches, this time featuring The Dominican Dancing Machine, No Way Jose who gave an energetic performance on his way to the ring. But his opponent was in no mood for jiving. Rhyno emerged looking more focused than ever before, disregarding the presence of the ECW faithful entirely and instead homing in on his adversary almost immediately. No Way barely had any opportunity to get out of the starting gate as The Man Beast unleashed a hellish beating, eventually putting him away with a thunderous Gore. Rhyno stood tall in victory but made his way back up the aisle almost immediately after the announcement was made. This new and focused Rhyno may be less involved with the ECW crowd, but he's sure to be more dangerous than ever.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/20ukvjo.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Aleister Black vs. Killian Dain ends in a no contest; neither man advances in the ECW Television Championship Tournament</b></div> When Bray Wyatt and Eric Young united as one last week to reveal "Sister Abigail" to the world, we knew that destruction and disaster was going to follow. But we didn't know it would be on such a grand scale. As Aleister Black prepared to do battle with SAnitY's Killian Dain as part of the ECW Television Championship Tournament, he was distracted by Nikki Cross at ringside who screamed in Black's face repeatedly. Suddenly, the lights shut off and when they returned, the entire group of SAnitY had joined him in the ring, and at the helm was none other than Bray Wyatt. The Eater of Worlds had a sadistic grin on his face as he lunged at The Dutch Destroyer, starting an all out mugging that saw all five people jump Black in a heinous display. Wyatt and SAnitY proceeded to dismantle Aleister Black and the official calling the match, rendering this bout a no contest. Security rushed to the ring but were kept at bay by Alexander Wolfe and Killian Dain, allowing Wyatt, Young and Cross to continue the attack. Leaving Black in a bloody, battered mess, SAnitY and Bray Wyatt stood as a unit as Wyatt bellowed "This is our destiny! We are the gods of extreme! This is our calling! Follow me into the darkness!". The maniacal extremist dropped to his knees as SAnitY stood behind him with equally evil grins. What has been unleashed?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/pqq9Y5D.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Paul Heyman announces the return of ECW One Night Stand in three weeks</b></div> Apparently WCW isn't the only brand who can have exclusive pay-per-view events. The Father of Extreme himself came to the ring for a very special announcement, exclusively revealing that he had agreed a deal with the McMahon family to host a brand exclusive pay-per-view events for ECW - the return of One Night Stand. Heyman explained that The Land of Extreme will play host to these One Night Stand events much like the pay-per-views of old. In three weeks, ECW returns to the Hammerstein Ballroom for this event which he explains will feature the finals of the ECW Television Championship Tournament, as well as the highly anticipated ECW World Championship clash between Finn Bálor and Johnny Gargano. "The tribe of extreme has risen again, and it's not going anywhere!" he bellows, "Beat that, you bastards!". With the message sent to his rivals, WWE Raw and WCW Nitro, all that remains now is to see what more extreme moments will take place at ECW One Night Stand III?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/vVT29P9.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Bianca Belair def. Natalya</b></div> The announcement of ECW One Night Stand is sure to get the locker room talking, and looking for their moment to shine on the bigger stage. The women's division will most definitely be one of the most competitive groups fighting for that all important spotlight. Bianca Belair took to the ring against Natalya tonight, in hopes of scoring a big victory over a seasoned veteran, and somehow she did just that. The Queen of Harts put up a fight against the impressive extremist, but Belair's wit allowed her to use her signature hair whip to keep Natalya at bay and eventually hit her with the KOD for the victory. The EST of ECW stood tall in victory, blowing a kiss towards her fallen foe before leaving. Belair has been unstoppable since arriving on ECW.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/yeByy16.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>ECW Tag Team Champions The Bludgeon Brothers def. The Ascension & The Colóns</b></div> In an attempt to prove their dominance over their challengers, The Bludgeon Brothers made a request to take on the same two teams that The Dudley Boyz had beaten last week to become number one contenders. Of course, their undefeated streak continued and they put away both The Ascension and The Colóns with relative ease. But as they stood tall in victory once again, they were taken by surprise when Bubba Ray and D-Von appeared and unleashed a flurry of shots at their rivals. Having gotten the upper hand, The Dudleyz were able to take Harper out by throwing him into the front row over the guard rail, leaving Rowan to take a 2-on-1 assault from the brothers. And with the introduction of a table, it didn't end well for the barbarian as he was driven through the table by Bubba Ray with a huge flapjack in the aisle. The legendary duo stood tall with the ECW faithful behind them as they came closer to challenging for the ECW Tag Team Championships once again. Can they do the unthinkable and finally defeat Harper and Rowan?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/gLPjNcB.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Jeff Hardy def. Mojo Rawley to advance in the ECW Television Championship Tournament</b></div> For the first time since his brutal Asylum Match with Dean Ambrose, The Charismatic Enigma returned to ECW for his first round match in the ECW Television Championship Tournament. As always, he soared his way to victory, outmatching the aggressive Mojo Rawley with his speed and experience, avoiding the devastating offence Rawley was throwing out and instead managing to hit a Twist of Fate followed by his signature Swanton Bomb to secure the win. Jeff Hardy is back on the victory wagon and could potentially go all the way to become the first ECW Television Champion of the New Era. But where is Dean Ambrose following their epic collision? The Lunatic Fringe has not been seen since. Now that's a unnerving fact.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/SBYGQnQ.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Lars Sullivan def. Zack Ryder to advance in the ECW Television Championship Tournament</b></div> In the last of the first round matches, it was the unstoppable beast, Lars Sullivan that came out on top, annihilating Zack Ryder in dominant fashion, as he had done over the last several weeks. The Freak overpowered The Long Island Iced-Z and planted him with the Freak Accident, all the while Drew Gulak watched from ringside with a smug expression, witnessing his monster at work. As Sullivan secured the pinfall, Gulak stepped into the ring and declared that while he may have lost to Rob Van Dam last week, the true victor of this tournament will be Lars Sullivan. Gulak promised that his monster would reach the finals and crush whoever it is that stands before him, capturing the ECW Television Championship and using it as a catalyst for change. "We will clean up ECW one way or another!" he shouted as Sullivan raised his hands into the air with a mighty roar.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/BhIgYlx.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The quarter-finals of the ECW Television Championship Tournament begin next week</b></div> The first round is over and the quarter-finals have been set. Next week, the tournament continues with four extreme matches to see which extremists will go to the semi-finals in two weeks. Rob Van Dam will take on Rusev, Pete Dunne will do battle with Kevin Owens, Jeff Hardy will tackle Rhyno, but what will happen with Lars Sullivan? His opponent was to be decided by a match between Aleister Black and Killian Dain which was thrown out earlier in the night. Does this mean The Freak gets a bye into the semi-finals? Or will Paul Heyman rectify this issue with a replacement? Find out next week!</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/58VXHzC.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Johnny Gargano def. Kassius Ohno; Finn Bálor evens the odds when Gargano and Ciampa attack</b></div> Now that it's known when Finn Bálor and Johnny Gargano will collide over the ECW World Championship, the match has garnered even more excitement and anticipation. Tonight, Johnny Wrestling came to the ring with his "best bud" and demanded the presence of Finn Bálor to take his beating early like a man. But instead of the ECW World Champion, Gargano and Ciampa were interrupted by the surprising arrival of Kassius Ohno. The Knockout Artist explained that like the ECW faithful, he was tired of hearing him run his mouth, and if it's a fight he's looking for, then he's happy to give him one. The Psycho Killer stepped forward to issue his own challenge to Ohno, but Gargano insisted that he let him come to the ring and put his money where his mouth is. An impromptu main event began and the pair tore the house down as Ciampa looked on from ringside. Of course, he didn't just observe, instead getting involved at one point to deliver the Meeting in the Middle, knocking Ohno out and allowing Gargano to pick up the victory. But when the pair initiated a post-match attack on The Knockout Artist, it was then that The Extraordinary Man emerged and came to the aid of his friend. Finn Bálor flew through the air, taking down Ciampa with a shotgun dropkick as the number one contender quickly retreated. The ECW World Champion stood by Ohno as the former #DIY retreated up the aisle. Just three weeks remain until Bálor and Gargano collide for the extreme gold, and it appears to be heating up each and every week.</div></div> <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

Seth Rollins demanded the presence of his nemesis, and issued an official challenge for a match at WCW SuperBrawl, but not just any match - a No Holds Barred Street Fight. And it certainly didn't seem like he was going to take no for an answer. The Samoan Submission Machine responded and emerged from the stage with a microphone of his own, wasting no time in accepting Rollins' bold challenge, but went on the state that he wasn't going to wait until SuperBrawl, and instead planned to finish what he started last week. "I'm still standing, Joe. Come and try it!" shouted Rollins as Joe dropped the microphone and stormed towards the ring. The Architect hopped through the ropes and met him half way as Nitro descended into chaos. The pair brawled all around the arena, tumbling into the crowd and trading blows one after another until security were forced to separate both men. They continued to shout verbal abuse at each other as they were pulled apart as the show quickly cut away from the scene.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/r8ExgJF.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/r8ExgJF.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ricochet def. Andrade "Cien" Almas</b></div></p><p> The tag team bout last week opened up doors for four of the most athletic competitors to clash in different ways, meaning that tonight we would get Rey Mysterio versus Chris Jericho, and of course, Ricochet versus Andrade "Cien "Almas. The latter opened up the action on WCW Nitro in an incredible bout that showcased the pure talent that both men have, soaring through the skies to throw everything they had at one another. And despite Zelina Vega trying to support her man by getting involved in the match as per usual, she was kept at bay by a clever springboard feint from Ricochet, causing her to drop down from the apron screaming which allowed him to instead avoid a shot from Almas and roll him up with a school boy for the victory. The high-flying superstar retreated in victory to the delight of the WCW Universe, and heads into this Sunday's pay-per-view with a full head of steam to face off against the iconic Chris Jericho. El Idolo was clearly furious, however, and would no doubt be in a very bad mood going into his own clash with Rey Mysterio at WCW SuperBrawl. Who will prevail later tonight when The Master of the 619 and Y2J collide in their own match?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/A1g9l6w.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/A1g9l6w.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Big Show def. Roderick Strong</b></div></p><p> After The World's Largest Athlete answered Adam Cole's United States Championship Open Challenge for WCW SuperBrawl last week, the leader of The Undisputed ERA decided to try and throw an obstacle before the giant ahead of this Sunday's title clash in the form of fellow Undisputed ally, Roderick Strong. The Messiah of the Backbreaker looked to impress his leader with a victory over the big man, but ultimately fell victim as he and his cohorts, O'Reilly and Fish had last week. Big Show used his clear strength advantage to throw Strong around the ring as the rest of The Undisputed ERA watched on from ringside. However, it seemed that none of them dare intervene to stop Show's offence and this meant that he was able to plant Strong with a huge Chokeslam to secure the win. The World's Largest Athlete heads into WCW SuperBrawl looking as dominant as ever, and it was visible in Adam Cole's eyes that he may be wishing he had never opened the floor up to challenges, because now he faces a giant task, literally.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/P7tJQoH.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/P7tJQoH.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Dolph Ziggler def. Shinsuke Nakamura</b></div></p><p> In a rematch from last week's episode, Dolph Ziggler and Shinsuke Nakamura collided again, and this time it was a reverse result. While last week saw The King of Strong Style come out on top over The Show-off in singles action, the rematch had a very different outcome, with Ziggler striking with a Superkick to knock The Rockstar out cold and secure the victory for himself. The score between the two superstars stood at one a piece, but that apparently wasn't enough. Shortly after the match, it was confirmed on WCW.com that the two would meet for a third time on the Kickoff Show of WCW SuperBrawl in the rubber match to find out who truly is the best man. Will it be Shinsuke Nakamura, or Dolph Ziggler who walks out of the Kickoff Show with the bragging rights?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/KwZAOvI.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/KwZAOvI.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Velveteen Dream mocks Ric Flair using one of his own robes</b></div></p><p> The Nature Boy snapped as he returned last week and made a beeline for The Velveteen Dream following his heinous assault. But this didn't dampen Dream's ego one bit as he emerged this week to mock the WCW Nitro General Manager just days before their battle at WCW SuperBrawl. Appearing in on of Ric Flair's signature robes, The Dream made his way to the ring in signature Nature Boy fashion, strutting his way down the aisle and finally picking up a microphone with a "Woo!". The WCW Universe didn't receive him well, but he continued to mock his rival with various quotes from Flair's legendary past, before eventually tearing the robe off and declaring that this Sunday there will be "no stylin', no profilin' only dreamin'". He claims that this Sunday, he will prove that he is the true Nature Boy, and vows to put the nail in the coffin of Flair's Hall of Fame career. "They say to be the man, you've got to beat the man" he declares, "Well that's not true. Because to be the man, you have to beat - The Dream". The Nature Boy returns to the ring at WCW SuperBrawl to take on The Velveteen Dream in what is sure to be a heated battle.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/RboOaRa.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/RboOaRa.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Chris Jericho def.

In a rematch from the very first episode of WCW Nitro, Y2J and Mysterio went head-to-head just days before they take on their respective adversaries at WCW SuperBrawl. No stranger to each other, they went back and forth and put on a clinic as always, but Jericho was quick to resort to his usual underhanded tactics, pulling Mysterio's mask over his eyes after blocking a 619. The momentary distraction allowed him to drag Mysterio into the center of the ring and apply the Liontamer, wrenching the spine of his opponent and forcing The Master of the 619 into submission. The self-proclaimed King of the World celebrated with a smug grin to the dismay of the WCW Universe, leaving Mysterio disappointed.

Last week's edition of WCW Nitro saw the contract signing between Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair end in carnage when The Man put her challenger through the table. Flair responded by journeying across the brand divide to attack her adversary on her home turf of WWE Raw. But things always come back around, as the Women's World Champion found her way into the arena and assaulted The Queen just as she had done on Raw, preventing her from competing in a scheduled bout. She laid waste to her SuperBrawl opponent before the WCW Nitro women's roster descended on ringside and forced The Man to flee through the crowd. She had sent her message, and with only a few days until the pair collide for the Women's World Championship, it was worth every moment. One of these superstars will walk out of WCW SuperBrawl with the gold, but which one it will be is anyone's guess.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/FV9X0RX.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/FV9X0RX.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Hideo Itami def. Gran Metalik</b></div></p><p> The return of the Cruiserweight Champion, Mustafa Ali last week came with a challenge to the man who put him on the shelf for a short time, Hideo Itami. It isn't often that the Champion challenges a superstar to be his challenger, but this was about more than the title. Itami's response was highly anticipated, but it was no mystery as to what the answer would be. Before his bout with Gran Metalik, the Japanese superstar accepted Ali's bold challenge for a match at WCW SuperBrawl and promised to bring his title reign to an end. The dangerous individual then went on to decimate the masked luchadore, finishing him off with his signature Go To Sleep. The number one contender for the Cruiserweight Championship stood with his foot on the chest of Metalik as he screamed Japanese towards the camera.

But tonight, Elias made his way to the ring to reveal that he would be in attendance at WCW SuperBrawl, and promised that he would give the performance of a lifetime in front of the jam-packed crowd. He laid down some ground rules, warning the WCW Universe to respect his moment and shut their mouths as he performs in front of the entire world. The Living Truth guarantees that his performance will steal the show and people will be talking about it for years to come.

Naomi</b></div></p><p> It seems that Lacey Evans' luck may have taken a turn. After suffering one embarrassment after another since debuting in the Women's Royal Rumble Match, she finally snapped last week when she assaulted Naomi during a contest between her and Carmella. This lead to a match being made between the two for tonight, as Naomi looked for some retribution. But The Lady of WCW appears to have broken her streak of setbacks as she unleashed an aggressive offence on the former Women's Champion, delivering the Women's Right to knock Naomi clean out, allowing her to pick the victory. After the match, Lacey Evans celebrated to the dismay of the WCW Universe, brushing herself off and resuming her ladylike behaviour. But everyone knows now that she isn't just a pretty face with stubborn views - she can back it all up with her vicious actions.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/IzlhdpJ.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/IzlhdpJ.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>WCW World Champion AJ Styles & The Good Brothers def. Drew McIntyre & The Bar</b></div></p><p> With just days to go until their main event clash at WCW SuperBrawl for the WCW World Championship, AJ Styles and Drew McIntyre rounded up their allies for a Six Man Tag Team bout to close out the final Nitro before the pay-per-view. The Phenomenal One found assistance in his old Japan running buddies, reforming The Club for the occasion. But The Scottish Psychopath had his own set of friends, bringing The Bar along to the fight. As the two teams collided, it had SuperBrawl preview written all over it with Styles and McIntyre event coming to blows during the course of the match. But after a chaotic sequence of events that saw Cesaro isolated with The Club, they were able to plant The Swiss Superman with the Magic Killer, followed up by AJ Styles pulling out the Spiral Tap for the final pinfall. McIntyre and Sheamus pulled their ally to safety and retreated up the aisle as The Club stood side-by-side in unity. As the two units stared off across the distance of the entrance ramp, the WCW Universe were left wondering whether these alliances would play a role in this weekend's main event for the WCW World Championship. One way or another, these two men will tear the house down, and only one of them will leave with the gold. Will it be The Scottish Psychopath or The Phenomenal One?</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

Well, nobody except The Miz himself. Apparently, The A-Lister went to the Board of Directors regarding Austin's actions and filed an official complaint against the WWE Raw General Manager, and as a result, Triple H was forced to make his return and call out the Hall of Famer. Opening the show, The Game stood face-to-face with former rival, Stone Cold and explained the situation, reminding Austin that when he was hired for the job, it was made perfectly clear that he was not to get physical with any of the superstars unless physically provoked. Triple H made sure it was understood that this was an official warning and that any further mishaps would not be tolerated. But not only must he hand out a warning to Stone Cold, but he explained that the Board have had to compensate The Miz to avoid him taking the complain any further, and as a result have awarded him an Intercontinental Championship Match tonight. In fact, that would take place right now. The Texas Rattlesnake was less than impressed, but The Game had laid down the law, and took his leave as The Miz made his entrance with a smug grin across his face, mockingly waving at Austin as he left through the ropes.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/n7uD6lr.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/n7uD6lr.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Miz def. Tyler Bate to become the new Intercontinental Champion</b></div></p><p> Somehow, The Miz has come out of this situation smelling of roses, and has added another accomplishment to his resume in the process. It was obvious that the Intercontinental Champion, Tyler Bate had not been briefed in advance of this bout, looking somewhat flustered as he made his way to the ring. Michael Cole received word from the back that he was only informed an hour before the show, meaning he had little time to prepare. The Miz, however, looked suspiciously prepared which raised many questions, but before anyone could really get an answer, the match was already underway. The British superstar fought hard to retain his title, taking the fight to The A-Lister at every turn, but it came down to the impromptu nature of this bout (for Bate at least), that allowed The Miz to capitalise and pick up a shocking victory, planting his adversary with a Skull-Crushing Finale and claiming the Intercontinental Championship. He and his wife, Maryse celebrated in the ring to the dismay of the WWE Universe, and The Miz even gave one last jab towards the WWE Raw General Manager, looking directly into the camera with his title raised and shouting "Oh hell yeah!".</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/wqXcgWn.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/wqXcgWn.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Mike Kanellis def.

Kanellis once again entered the ring for another bout with one of the most athletic superstars on the roster, and was able to defeat Apollo Crews thanks to a brief interception from his beloved wife, who acted as a distraction and allowed Mike to deliver a rolling cutter for the victory. The one true love story of The Kanellis' once again takes center stage on Raw as the pair embrace and kiss in front of the world. As much as their relationship appears to be their main focus, Mike Kanellis continues to impress in the ring.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ZTOBmhN.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ZTOBmhN.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The New Day def. WWE Tag Team Champions The Revival</b></div></p><p> Another week. Another defeat. The Revival continue to have the worst of luck in their reign as WWE Tag Team Champions, losing to every team that has come before them. This week, in another explosion of anger, the pair demanded respect from the tag team roster and promised that regardless of what has happened in recent weeks, they are still the most dominant tag team in history. They were quickly interrupted by the arrival of The New Day to the delight of the WWE Universe. The positive trio confronted Dash and Dawson, explaining that they were here to "turn their frowns upside down", but The Revival were having none of it and attacked the former Tag Team Champions. This led into an impromptu non-title bout which saw The New Day hand The Revival another loss, with Xavier Woods and Big E taking to the ring and defeating them with the UpUpDownDown for the victory. The trio danced and celebrated with an excitable crowd as The Revival stormed away in a fit of rage. The WWE Tag Team Champions once again leave with an unfortunate cloud over their head.

"The New" Daniel Bryan made it clear that he intended to make an example of Reigns, using him to get the message across that there is only one way of life, and that the WWE Universe are oblivious to their own mistakes. He declares that he will retain the WWE World Championship and send Roman Reigns back home where he belongs. But The Big Dog has some equally tough words for his adversary, explaining that Daniel Bryan's tirade must be stopped, and the WWE Universe had heard enough. He made it clear to the WWE World Champion that he would be taking the title to put an end to Bryan's propaganda and stand up for those who want to live their life without judgement. The two collide in tonight's main event, and you won't want to miss it.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/9fmjhmx.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/9fmjhmx.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ronda Rousey def. Nia Jax</b></div></p><p> Nia Jax may have issued the challenge last week, but Ronda Rousey answered it in style. The former cage fighter came to the dance ready to stand toe-to-toe with The Irresistible Force who last week claimed that Ronda was not The Baddest Woman on the Planet - she was. But after this week's bout, it seems that The Rowdy One is still at the top of her game and is still worthy of the Baddest Woman on the Planet moniker. Despite Jax's best efforts and a momentary display of dominance, she was ultimately dragged to the canvas into the devastating armbar that she had no choice but to submit to. Ronda Rousey stood victorious in the center of the ring with the WWE Universe behind her, and made sure Nia Jax was aware that she was no challenge to her. Is anyone? Rousey doesn't think so, and nobody has yet to prove otherwise.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/9tPJe8o.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/9tPJe8o.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Braun Strowman def.

Strowman unleashed his rage on The Viper repeatedly and left him laying as the show came to a close. This week, the big man competed in his own match, destroying Titus O'Neil in a fairly brief contest that showed everyone why he is one of the most dangerous competitors on the roster. However, as he left the ring in celebration, The Viper struck from outta nowhere, delivering an RKO to his giant rival. Randy Orton stood over his fallen foe having got his measure of revenge, but this is sure not to be over yet.

As The Man emerged on Raw to compete in a warm-up match of sorts against Absolution's Sonya Deville, she was blindsided before she even made it off the stage. The Queen exploded from stageside and assaulted her SuperBrawl opponent, clearly as an act of revenge for Lynch's actions this past week on WCW Nitro when she put Flair through a table during their contract signing. Charlotte unleashed her fury on her adversary and sent her crashing into the announce table. Security quickly rushed the scene and separated the two, but the message had been sent.

Lio Rush</b></div></p><p> It was originally scheduled to be a collision between Kurt Angle and Bobby Lashley in a blockbuster bout, but instead, The All Mighty decided to take a step back and Lio Rush stepped up the plate to replace him. His adviser explained that Kurt Angle had not earned the right to share the ring with The All Mighty, and he must instead get through him. Unfortunately for Rush, The Wrestling Machine did just that. Angle tore down the loudmouthed superstar with his technical ability, making sure to give the occasional glare to Lashley at ringside as he dismantled his adviser. Angle planted Rush with an Angle Slam and then applied the Ankle Lock, forcing him into submission for the victory. Bobby Lashley helped Rush out of the ring and reluctantly retreated up the aisle as Angle celebrated his victory. Lio Rush may have claimed that Kurt Angle had not yet earned the right to face The All Mighty, but perhaps now he will reconsider after finding out first hand just what The Olympic Hero is capable of.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/fBY8gaD.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/fBY8gaD.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Baron Corbin makes his WWE Raw return by interrupting John Cena</b></div></p><p> With Bobby Roode dealt with, John Cena looked to move forward on WWE Raw and make his next move. The 16-time World Champion took to the microphone to address the WWE Universe and thank them for their continued support. But just as it appeared that he was about to set his sights on the WWE World Championship after tonight's main event, he was interrupted by a very unwelcome guest - Baron Corbin. The Lone Wolf made his return to WWE Raw - despite originally being revealed as an ECW extremist - and interrupted The Cenation Leader, claiming that the iconic superstar had run his course as the posterboy of wrestling. Corbin explained that he struck an exclusive deal with the McMahon family to be signed to WWE Raw and make an impact. With that, he declared that his way of making an impact is to go for the top dog and destroy him, and that just so happens to be John Cena. "I'm done sitting on the sidelines and letting opportunities that should be mine slip by" he declared, "this is my time. And I'm not going to let you or anyone else get in my way". After making his statement, he dropped the microphone and returned backstage, leaving John Cena confused and bewildered by Corbin's sudden appearance. With The Lone Wolf now prowling WWE Raw, what does this mena for John Cena and the rest of the roster?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/jOUPSXv.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/jOUPSXv.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>WWE World Champion Daniel Bryan vs. Roman Reigns ends in a no contest when Brock Lesnar emerges and destroys both men</b></div></p><p> This highly anticipated main event didn't disappoint, pitting "The New" Daniel Bryan against Roman Reigns in a WWE World Championship bout for the ages. The two top class competitors clashed in a back-and-forth match that had the WWE Universe on the edges of their seats. Close counts came for both men with The Big Dog delivering a thunderous Spear, only for Bryan to kick out at two. The same went for Bryan as he delivered his signature running knee, but it would prove to take more than that to keep Reigns down. However, as it came to a close with both men suffering from serious fatigue, and neither gaining a significant advantage, their night was ruined by the arrival of a monstrous individual - Brock Lesnar. The Beast Incarnate stormed ringside and began dismantling both competitors, tossing them around the ring with German suplexes left and right. Lesnar then delivered an F-5 to both Bryan and Reigns, leaving them motionless on the canvas at his feet. Having completely ruined this WWE World Championship Match, The Beast stood tall over the carnage and showed little care for what he had done. The WWE Universe made it heard that they weren't happy with the result, but Lesnar simply looked up and made it clear to them that he didn't give a damn. He stood between his fallen victims and let out a primal scream as WWE Raw came to a close. The Beast Incarnate has returned, and he's made an immediate impact on the entire roster.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

The Father of ECW himself opened the show, holding the all-new ECW TV Championship over his shoulder, showing it off to the world as he explained that one lucky extremist would have the opportunity to be a part of history. Paul Heyman revealed that tonight would feature four of the eight first round matches, with the next four taking place on next week's episode. And as for the special event that the tournament final will take place at - he is still playing his cards close to his chest.

Well, Drew Gulak felt he was a better choice, heading to the ring for a rare bout, followed closely by his muscle, Lars Sullivan. As The Freak looked on, RVD and Gulak clashed in the first match of the 16-man tournament, and after the events of recent weeks, Van Dam made sure he kept a close eye on Sullivan's whereabouts. The rivalry between the two was clearly on the mind of The Whole F'n Show, but that didn't stop him defeating The Powerpoint Prince with a Five-Star Frog Splash as The Freak simply stood and stared at his enemy. After securing the win, Lars collected his adviser and retreated up the aisle at Gulak's request. "You'll get yours, Van Dam!" screeched Gulak as he and Sullivan left, but all RVD cared about was sharing the moment with the ECW faithful as he advance to round two.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/25Pcev8.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/25Pcev8.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Rusev def.

The veteran, Goldust gave Rusev a fight to remember, and at one point even tried to get in the head of the monstrous extremist by approaching his wife on the outside and running his fingers through her hair. However, this only enraged Rusev who unleashed a furious attack on his adversary and finished him off with the Machka Kick for the victory.

This week, the pair entered the arena side-by-side with sinister grins before introducing "Sister Abigail" to the ECW faithful and the rest of the world, revealing it to be none other than Nikki Cross. The psychotic Cross exploded into the arena in a maniacal fashion, confronting Young and Wyatt before turning her attention to the crowd and screaming at the top of her lungs. The sinister pair simply laughed behind her, as if revealing their master plan as Cross grinned to the crowd with little to no emotion in her eyes.

But one team determined to knock them off their pedestal is The Dudley Boyz. The iconic team once again claimed the right to be called number one contenders by defeating The Ascension and The Colóns in a Three-Way Dance, first eliminating Primo and Epico with an assisted top rope powerbomb from Bubba Ray, and then putting Konnor and Viktor away with a 3-D through a table that cemented their place as the next challengers. Bubba and D-Von celebrated their victory and made gestures to suggest that they fully intended to become the new ECW Tag Team Champions at the next opportunity. But watching from the shadows were Harper and Rowan, shown observing their future challengers from the backstage area.

The Prizefighter unleashed another vicious attack on his adversary of the night, Tye Dillinger, eventually putting The Perfect 10 away with a Package Piledriver, pulling out the devastating move to secure his win. After the match, having advanced in the tournament, Owens once again glared down at his fallen foe with a blank expression, picking him back up and planting him with a Pop-up Powerbomb for good measure.

As the dominant extremist stood tall in victory, she grabbed a microphone and declared her dominance over the women's division, demanding more competition.

What does The Father of ECW have up his sleeve for the future of Extreme Championship Wrestling?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/mUmWO9Z.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/mUmWO9Z.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>ECW World Champion Finn Bálor def. Tommaso Ciampa</b></div></p><p> While The Extraordinary Man wasn't in attendance last week, he was still focused on getting his revenge on Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa for attacking him two weeks ago. As a result, Finn Bálor requested this one-on-one contest with The Psycho Killer in hopes of getting some measure of payback on his attackers. The short break seemed to work wonders for the ECW World Champion as he returned with a fire in his eyes, taking the fight right to Ciampa in the worst way. The main event featured several high-flying moments, and many more extreme moments to boot. Ciampa attempted to cripple Bálor with a ladder, using it to repeatedly crush the midsection of his adversary, but when Bálor battled back, he used the ladder to his own advantage, sending Ciampa into it with a huge shotgun dropkick. After seeing an opportunity following a Slingblade, Bálor ascended the turnbuckle and flew through the air, delivering the killing blow - the Coup de Grace. A three count later and Bálor had his hand raised as the victory, having defeated one of the two thorns in his side. As he celebrated however, he was assaulted from behind by the number one contender, Johnny Gargano. The man who will challenge for the ECW World Championship came from out of nowhere and unleashed a relentless attack on his rival, pulling him to the outside of the ring and using a steel chair on The Extraordinary Man, laying him out cold. Johnny Wrestling grabbed the ECW World Championship from ringside and raised it above his head to a hostile reaction from the ECW faithful. Could this be the sight when they collide with the gold on the line in the near future?</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

Rey Mysterio & Ricochet</b></div></p><p> This week's episode of WCW Nitro wasted no time kicking things off, starting with an unbelievable tag team bout that saw Rey Mysterio and Ricochet team up to take on Andrade "Cien" Almas and Chris Jericho. The talent of all four men is well-known, and this was an explosive way to open up Nitro to say the least. The WCW Universe were left in awe by the high-flying duo of Mysterio and Ricochet, but their acrobatic antics were not enough to overcome the devious wit of their adversaries. As Chris Jericho disposed of The One and Only on the outside with an underhanded low blow out of the officials view, El Idolo was able to evade a 619 attempt and quickly roll up his masked rival, grabbing a handful of tights to ensure the three count. He and Y2J quickly fled ringside in celebration as Ricochet crawled back into the ring to support his partner. The soaring athletes had been outsmarted tonight, and the victory had been stolen. But it was announced moments after the match that the four of them would have matches at WCW SuperBrawl as Ricochet will take on Chris Jericho, and Rey Mysterio will get his hands on Andrade Almas in two blockbuster matches.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/M3VmLRC.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/M3VmLRC.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Cruiserweight Champion Mustafa Ali def. Tony Nese</b></div></p><p> The WCW Cruiserweight Champion returned to Nitro last week after being injured by Hideo Itami backstage after their title bout just a few weeks ago. The high-flying athlete made his in-ring return against The Premiere Athlete, Tony Nese in an incredible contest that saw him finish off his adversary with the unbelievable 054 Splash. Mustafa Ali took to the microphone following the win and made a direct challenge to his attacker, requesting a match at WCW SuperBrawl. He declares that he will put the title on the line if it means getting his hands on Itami one-on-one in the ring, and so the challenge is laid out. Will the Japanese superstar accept the bold challenge and face Ali in one week at the WCW exclusive event?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/XvDykWw.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/XvDykWw.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ric Flair returns and unleashes a vengeful attack on The Velveteen Dream</b></div></p><p> It seems that The Velveteen Dream may have run his mouth one too many times. The flamboyant superstar once again made his way to the ring to gloat about how he attacked the WCW Nitro General Manager, Ric Flair two weeks ago and refused point blank to apologise for his actions. The WCW Universe had their say on the matter, but The Dream did not care for their opinion, calling himself "The New Nature Boy" and proceeding to repeatedly "Woo!" to their annoyance. However, unlike last week, his tirade was cut off, and not just by anyone, but by The Nature Boy himself! Wielding a steel chair and a rage-filled expression, he stormed to the ring and unleashed all hell on the man who viciously attacked him two weeks prior. The old Flair had indeed come back as he maniacally slammed the steel into the spine of The Dream before shifting into another gear, throwing out screams of "Woo!" left right and center before applying his patented Figure-Four Leglock and wrenching away at the legs of his rival. Officials rushed to ringside to separate the two, despite the chants of the crowd of "Let them fight!", but as The Dream was quickly pulled from the ring to safety, The Nature Boy grabbed a microphone and made a very clear statement - "Listen here you son of a bitch - WOO - I'm The Nature Boy! You wanna fight? Let's fight! You and me - WOO - at WCW SuperBrawl! And I'll give you the ass kicking you deserve! WOO!". The Dream has awoken the true Nature Boy, and at WCW SuperBrawl, he isn't going to get WCW Nitro General Manager, Ric Flair, he's going to get the Jet Flying, Limousine Ridin', Kiss Stealin', Wheelin' Dealin', 16-time World Champion, Ric Flair. WOO!</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/8a1qRyZ.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/8a1qRyZ.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Shinsuke Nakamura def. Dolph Ziggler</b></div></p><p> Nakamura and Ziggler stood by their allies in last week's main event, acting as tag team partners for AJ Styles and Drew McIntyre respectively. But tonight, it was about one-on-one action, without their companions involved. The King of Strong Style took his hard-hitting offence to The Show-off in a back and forth bout that also saw Ziggler get in some hard-hitting attacks, specifically his superkick. But his kicks didn't quite match up to those of The Rockstar who delivered a jaw-jacking Kinshasa to claim the victory over his adversary and perhaps avenge his loss in the tag team match last week in the process. Nakamura stood tall over his fallen foe and celebrated with the WCW crowd as Ziggler retreated in disappointment. The King of Strong Style appears to be back on his throne.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/MkekG9O.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/MkekG9O.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Noami def. Carmella via disqualification; Lacey Evans attacks Naomi</b></div></p><p> That wasn't very ladylike! Regardless, as Naomi and Carmella went toe-to-toe on WCW Nitro, they were interrupted by the arrival of Lacey Evans who hasn't had the best of starts since joining the brand. The Lady of WCW initially observed from a distance, walking around the ringside area, scouting out her fellow female superstars. But when a moment presented itself, she slid into the ring and viciously assaulted Naomi, ending the match via disqualification. Carmella looked set to step in and stop her, but decided instead to leave the ring and retreat up the aisle, leaving Evans to unleash her pent up frustration on the former Women's Champion. The Lady delivered a thunderous right hand that she calls the Women's Right, knocking Naomi out cold and standing over her in the center of the ring, readjusting her hair. After a few deep breaths, she contained her anger and began smiling, despite the boos from the crowd. Her unfortunate beginnings had finally got the better of her and she had decided to take matters into her own hands.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/TrtleO6.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/TrtleO6.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Samoa Joe unleashes vicious attack on Seth Rollins for the second week in a row</b></div></p><p> Since the very beginning of WCW Nitro's return, Seth Rollins and Samoa Joe have been at each other's throats, and it shows no signs of letting up. The Destroyer has been haunting The Architect for weeks, and just as Rollins was set to head to the ring to address last week's attack, he was blindsided once again by his arch-nemesis. Joe brutally beat down his rival, using anything around him to inflict as much pain as possible. Dragging Rollins' into the locker room, he threw him into TV screen before throwing him to the ground and locking him in a crippling triangle hold as blood poured from Rollins' skull. Security and officials rushed to the scene and pulled Joe away from Rollins, hoping to prevent any more damage from being done. As he is dragged away, The Destroyer declared that he was going to end The Kingslayer's career one way or another. Medical personnel tended to Rollins as Joe was removed from the area. If these attacks continue, it may only be a matter of time before Rollins' career is forced to be over, just like Samoa Joe has promised.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/1KFrqU2.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/1KFrqU2.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>United States Champion Adam Cole def. EC3; Big Show answers Cole's US Open Challenge for WCW SuperBrawl</b></div></p><p> Issuing an open challenge last week, Adam Cole was looking to find his next contender for the United States Championship. However, he probably didn't expect The World's Largest Athlete to answer the call. After defeating EC3 in non-title action on WCW Nitro, Cole once again grabbed a microphone to issue the open challenge, claiming that nobody had the gall to challenge him because the result will always be the same - he will retain his title. But when the familiar theme hit, the entire Undisputed ERA froze and looked towards the entrance. The giant slowly made his way towards the ring to the huge ovation, and the US Champion was shaking in his boots. He told his Undisputed ERA allies to cut him off, only for all three of them to be tossed aside by the gargantuan, throwing Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly into the front row, before drilling Roderick Strong with a Knockout Punch. The World's Largest Athlete stepped up onto the ring apron and came face-to-face with Adam Cole, pointing towards his title. He smiled as Cole quickly clutched his belt close to his chest and rolled under the ropes, retreating up the aisle. Adam Cole's days as United States Champion may be numbered, as he faces a literal giant challenge at WCW SuperBrawl.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/3FCfQPe.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/3FCfQPe.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Bar def. The Good Brothers</b></div></p><p> The tag team division is truly on the up since the New Era began, and this can be seen in these two teams from WCW Nitro. The Bar collided with The Good Brothers in tag team action tonight, with hopes of a future WCW Tag Team Championship shot at stake. But it was Cesaro and Sheamus who were the ones to pick up the victory, isolating Karl Anderson and delivering a tandem move that saw Sheamus strike with a Brogue Kick, knocking Anderson out for the count. After the bell, the pair stood side-by-side in unity and shouted "We don't just set the bar - we are The Bar!", receiving a somewhat negative reaction from the crowd. The pair left as The Good Brothers regrouped on the outside, disappiinted with their loss.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/OvD51NX.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/OvD51NX.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Drew McIntyre def. R-Truth; AJ Styles returns the favour</b></div></p><p> The countdown continues to Drew McIntyre's golden opportunity against AJ Styles as he cashes in his Royal Rumble victory for a chance to become the WCW World Champion. But this week, The Sinister Scot took to the ring and grabbed a microphone to declare his superiority over his adversary, claiming that he has a pinfall victory over him already, beating him last week in tag team action. However, he revealed that tonight he had been given the opportunity to issue an open challenge to any WCW Nitro superstar who believes they can defeat him - despite nobody being physically able to. His challenge was answered by... R-Truth? Whether he stumbled into the wrong situation or not, he was declared McIntyre's opponent, receiving a relentless beating from the number one contender. It wasn't long before The Scot Terminator was able to put Truth away, dropping him with a Claymore kick for the victory. He stood with his foot on Truth's chest in victory, making a gesture around his waist, suggesting that he will leave WCW SuperBrawl as the new WCW World Champion. But his moment of glory was crashed by the very man he hopes to defeat - AJ Styles. The Phenomenal One emerged from seemingly out of nowhere to deliver his signature Phenomenal Forearm, grounding his challenger. As McIntyre quickly fled ringside, recovering from the surprising attack, Styles looked out towards the stage with a stern expression, letting McIntyre know that he isn't playing around.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/GoVJyPN.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/GoVJyPN.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Women's World Championship contract signing has chaotic end</b></div></p><p> The match was confirmed last week when Becky Lynch accepted the challenge of Charlotte Flair, and now the contract was to be signed to make it official, meaning the two will collide at WCW SuperBrawl in just one week. As the ambassador for the entire women's division, Stephanie McMahon was on hand to oversee the contract signing between the two. The Women's World Champion and her challenger made their way to the ring and stood across from each other, preparing to sign on the dotted line. After a brief introduction by Stephanie McMahon, she presented the official contract and placed it on the table. Both Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair signed their names and shook hands, cementing the bout for the upcoming pay-per-view. However, the handshake quickly became more intense than expected as they pulled nose-to-nose and began trading verbal shots. Suddenly, The Queen decided to take the Women's World Championship from Becky's shoulder and raised it herself, only for The Man to snap and grab her, putting her through the table in the center of the ring with a Bexploder Suplex! Becky Lynch stood over her adversary and shouted "Never touch my damn title!" before barging past Stephanie and taking her leave. Flair slowly climbed back to her feet and looked up the aisle in anger as the two women had a staredown to close out WCW Nitro.

He calls his challenger weak, claiming that his superhero persona is simply a facade used to cover up an ugly truth - that he is ashamed of himself. Bryan states that Reigns is no better than the "creatures" in the WWE Universe was ignorantly and selfishly abuse our planet, and his message will be spread one way or another. The self-proclaimed Planet's Champion revealed that he would be in action in tonight's main event against Randy Orton, vowing to demonstrate his superiority over The Viper and give Reigns a preview of the beating he will receive next week.

For The Revival - not so much. Since capturing the WWE Tag Team Championships, they have had nothing but bad luck, losing to a debuting Heavy Machinery after an open challenge, and suffering another loss at the hands of The Street Profits last week. This week, Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder came to the ring demanding respect from the WWE Universe and the tag team division, but all they got was another challenge as they were greeted by The Usos who put their name forward for the future WWE Tag team Championship Match. The impromptu bout kicked off WWE Raw and resulted in yet another loss for Dash and Dawson after the latter was hit with an Uso Splash to end the match. Another week, another loss.

Shelton Benjamin</b></div> Two weeks ago, Tyler Bate finally achieved his goal of becoming the Intercontinental Champion, albeit with a little help from John Cena. Returning to Raw, the young superstar looked to prove his worth as holder of the prestigious gold, and did so by defeating a former Intercontinental Champion and in-ring veteran, Shelton Benjamin. The Gold Standard saw this as an opportunity to throw his name back in the hat for a title shot after all these years, but fell victim to Bate's pure determination and was planted with a Tyler Driver for the victory. The British competitor celebrated with his title and the WWE Universe behind him all the way.

Bellowing to the backstage officials, asking where The Viper was, he smashed his way through the hallways until coming face-to-face with an array of superstars in the locker room. When nobody could tell him where Randy Orton would be, he began decimating anyone in his path, throwing around various superstars such as Curt Hawkins, Heath Slater and Chad Gable. The Monster Among Men continued to demand Orton's presence as he destroyed the area, but he was apprehended by security before he could cause anymore chaos. It took at least six men to restrain the big man, and nobody knew what to do with him.

Nia Jax decimated yet another competitor in Ember Moon this week, planting her with her signature Samoan Drop for the victory. Moments after the bell, Jax grabbed a microphone and made another bold statement, claiming that The Rowdy One is a phoney, and the real "Baddest Woman on the Planet" is standing right here.

The A-Lister took to the ring with his wife, Maryse to follow up on his claims, calling out The Texas Rattlesnake to address the situation, demanding an apology for his recent treatment. Austin obliged and came to the ring to address The Miz's claims, only to inform The Miz that he was talking out of his ass, and he should stop being a crybaby. This infuriated the former World Champion who threatened to go to the Board of Directors about Austin and cause him to lose his job, but the General Manager told him that the only way The Miz can change his current position is to do something about it. This lead to The A-Lister getting in Austin's face and calling him "a broken man" who he could put on the shelf with one swift move. A chuckle from Austin and one quick flip of the bird later, and The Miz found himself eating a Stone Cold Stunner, laying him out in the center of the ring. The Texas Rattlesnake stood over The Miz and smirked before taking his leave to the delight of the crowd. The Miz just found out first hand that whether he's an active competitor or not, you still don't cross Stone Cold Steve Austin.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/7MfX8yF.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>John Cena def.

Being the role model he is, Cena battled against this and caught the ire of Roode in the process. This bout was scheduled to take place last week, but it was rendered a no contest when Bobby Roode assaulted The Cenation Leader just moment before the ring bell. Tonight, after strict orders from General Manager, Stone Cold Steve Austin to make sure the match goes ahead, it finally happened. The rivalry exploded and had both men hitting their biggest moves on the other, hoping to be the one to walk out as the victor. And while Roode came close to knocking off the former 16-time World Champion, he was unable to keep the iconic superstar down, being sent crashing from the top rope by an avalanche Attitude Adjustment to finally put an end to the match.

With the rumours circulating recently surrounding a potential Women's Tag Team Championship, could this be a preview of things to come? Bayley secure the win for herself and The Boss with a Bayley-to-Belly on Little Miss Bliss, landing the best friends in a good position should a women's tag team division be instated.

The All Mighty added another one to the win column with a dominant display over Gentleman Jack Gallagher, throwing the cruiserweight around with no care for his well-being. The former United States Champion delivered a thunderous Spear before driving his adversary into the canvas with his signature Dominator. As the past few weeks have also seen, Lio Rush took to the microphone to big up his client, calling Bobby Lashley the "most gifted athlete to grace a WWE ring", once again telling the WWE Universe to "Hail The All Mighty, Bobby Lashley!". But as he spoke those words, he was interrupte dby the theme of Hall of Famer, Kurt Angle. The crowd erupted as The Olympic Hero confronted The All Mighty in the center of the ring. Without saying a word, the two stared each other down, but after some persuasion from Lio Rush, Lashley left the ring to the disappointment of the WWE Universe. Angle looked out towards Lashley before sharing a moment with the crowd, the powerhouse and his adviser retreating to fight another day. Will we see these two collide in the near future?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/qD3yop5.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Women's World Champion Becky Lynch addresses her match with Charlotte Flair at WCW SuperBrawl</b></div> The reigning Women's World Champion made history last week, traversing the brand border and setting foot in WCW Nitro territory to accept the challenge laid out by Charlotte Flair. As a result, the WWE Raw superstar will compete on WCW's first brand-exclusive pay-per-view and defend her title against The Queen. The fighting champion made her way to the ring tonight to address the upcoming title defence, explaining that she will never back down from a challenge, whether it's from a WWE Raw superstar, WCW Nitro superstar or an ECW extremist - it doesn't matter to her. The Man declared that she knows Charlotte Flair better than anyone else on the roster, and states that they will tear the house down at WCW SuperBrawl, but one thing will be guaranteed - in two weeks, she will still be leaving as the Women's World Champion. She then revealed that she would once again be in attendance this week on WCW Nitro to sign the official contract for their match, and she's coming to make it clear to Charlotte that there's no chance of her leaving the event with the title. The Women's World Championship will remain a permanent possession of The Man.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/QTwE7W6.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Randy Orton def. WWE World Champion Daniel Bryan via disqualification</b></div> As announced at the top of the show, "The New" Daniel Bryan would go head-to-head with Randy Orton in the main event. Two men who know each other very well, going at it in a non-title bout. But it wasn't quite as straight forward as that. After a back and forth battle that had near falls on both sides, the match took a sharp turn when Braun Strowman reemerged for the second time tonight, this time getting his hands on Orton as he had hoped earlier on. He pulled The Viper from the ring and threw him into the steel steps, causing the disqualification. The Monster Among Men continued to dismantle the former World Champion on the outside, dragging him up the aisle and smashing him into the LED stage. The WWE World Champion clambered to his feet and saw what had unfolded, smirking when he realised that his adversary for tonight had been dealt with. But his moment of smugness was short-lived as he found himself on the receiving end of a Superman Punch from the number one contender, Roman Reigns. The Big Dog came out of nowhere to drop his rival in response to his words last week and earlier in the night. Reigns picked up the title and raised it above his head to the delight of the WWE Universe. He and Daniel Bryan will collide in next week's main event with the WWE World Championship on the line! Don't miss it!</div></div> <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

The pair opened up ECW this week and made their union official, Gargano stating that he and Ciampa realised that they are better together than apart, vowing to take over The Land of Extreme. The Psycho Killer declared that nobody could stop them, least of all Finn Bálor, and guaranteed that Johnny Gargano would take the ECW World Championship when the time came for him to receive his shot.

Gargano and Ciampa showed that they still have chemistry as a tag team, defeating Konnor and Viktor of The Ascension in the opening contest and showing no remorse as they did with Finn Bálor last week. After taking Konnor out of the equation with a huge running knee by Ciampa, they finished off Viktor with their signature Meeting in the Middle. After securing the victory, the pair celebrated to the dismay of the hardcore crowd, and once again declared that they were here to take over ECW. With the ECW World Champion not in attendance thanks to the injuries sustained at the hands of these two merciless competitors, who is going to be able to stop them?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ZBQJRrv.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ZBQJRrv.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Aleister Black def.

A larger foe rose to the occasion this week as Mojo Rawley and his unparalleled "hype" tried to take down the dark extremist, only to suffer the same fate as Lorcan before him. Black displayed his incredible talent and was able to put Rawley away with the Black Mass kick, knocking out the former Hype Bro in the center of the ring. Another victory under the belt of Aleister Black, he continued his redemption and looked forward to the future, leaving everyone wondering where it will lead if he is to truly reach his desired destination. The Evil One will persevere, and hopefully regain his confidence in The Land of Extreme.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/Z7hIWPd.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/Z7hIWPd.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Shayna Baszler def.

One-on-one in ECW. These two powerful superstars clashed before the ECW crowd in a hard-hitting bout with Dana Brooke at ringside to support her best friend. But her presence meant little to Baszler who actually took time out during the contest to assault Brooke, sending her over the guard rail and into the front row. She then returned to the ring and dismantled the former Women's Champion, Natalya, almost tearing her arm out of its socket with a hanging armbar, then returning to the center of the ring to execute the Kirifude Driver for the win. The former cage fighter once again displayed brute force and unbelievable intensity, standing tall in The Land of Extreme. Is there a woman on the roster who can stop this fighting machine? Or anyone at all for that matter?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/EIksRml.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/EIksRml.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Paul Heyman announces plans for a tournament to crown the first ECW Television Champion</b></div></p><p> The Land of Extreme has always been the place for innovation and new opportunities, and that's exactly what Paul Heyman had to offer when he came to the ring this week. The Father of ECW thanked the hardcore faithful for their undying support the last few weeks to keep ECW up there with the two giants that are WWE and WCW. But cutting straight to business, Heyman revealed that the brand was still considered to be "inferior" due to its size and stature, despite that being what ECW has always being about. However, in an effort to show the doubters that The Land of Extreme has plenty of tricks left up its sleeve, he announces a 16-Man Tournament starting next week to crown the first ECW Television Champion of the New Era. The Messiah reveals that the tournament begins next week on ECW and will culminate at a special event that he plans to announce in due course. Paul Heyman never fails to make an impact, but the question remains - who will be crowned the first ECW Television Champion?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/VTxi1eD.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/VTxi1eD.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Lars Sullivan def. Rhyno</b></div></p><p> The Freak struck last week with absolutely no motive other than to destroy and dismantle, and it so happened that his target was Rob Van Dam. Led by Drew Gulak and his mission to "clean up" ECW, the big man destroyed the former World Champion after his match with Bray Wyatt. This week, Lars and Gulak once again took to the ring to address the current state of affairs in The Land of Extreme, only to be interrupted by The Man Beast, Rhyno who took issue and this led to an impromptu match. The Freak was able to overcome the former ECW World Champion and put him away with a vicious Freak Accident onto a steel chair. But moments after the bell, Gulak screeched at Sullivan to finish the job, and the big man went on an unhinged assault, repeatedly beating Rhyno with the steel chair. Suddenly, the crowd erupted as Rob Van Dam emerged and came to the aid of his fellow ECW original, delivering a huge Van Daminator to the skull of Lars Sullivan, knocking him through the ropes to the outside. He and Drew Gulak reluctantly retreated as RVD checked on his fallen comrade, giving a scowl towards his rival.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/Nyup56H.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/Nyup56H.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Kevin Owens def.

However, he would never have expected to cross paths with Kevin Owens just one week later. Fresh of his heinous assault on his former best friend, Sami Zayn, The Prizefighter took to the ring with a psychotic expression on his face, seemingly void of all emotion. He unleashed his rage on The Knockout Artist in the ring and even used a steel chair at ringside to beat down his adversary before planting him in the ring with the Pop-up Powerbomb for the win. After the match, Owens stood for a few moments, staring out into the crowd who were giving him a rather hostile reception, only to turn and leave without saying a word. No explanation. No answers. Just a physical message sent to anyone watching. Kevin Owens means business.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/0g1Z3Q2.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/0g1Z3Q2.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>ECW Tag Team Champions The Bludgeon Brothers def. Zack Ryder & Tye Dillinger</b></div></p><p> It's becoming a tradition for us to see The Bludgeon Brothers run through the competition. From oddball teams with no chemistry, to experienced tag teams like The DUdley Boyz, nobody has been able to defeat these two behemoths. They picked up yet another victory this week, crushing the duo of Zack Ryder and Tye Dillinger after sending The Perfect 10 to the floor on the outside with a huge military press, and then finishing off The Broski with The Reckoning. After the match, the two big men stood side-by-side with their titles in hand, looking out towards the entrance way. They raised the titles in front of them and seemed to be beckoning anyone in the back to try and take them from them. Who would be brave enough to take them up on the offer? Or more specifically, who would be stupid enough? Harper and Rowan remain undefeated, and it doesn't look like that will change anytime soon.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/5E1WFWw.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/5E1WFWw.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Eric Young pays Bray Wyatt a visit at The Wyatt Compound</b></div></p><p> The Wyatt Compound is perhaps the eeriest place in wrestling history, being the home of one of the industries most mysterious competitors, Bray Wyatt. The Eater of Worlds was minding his own business this week when he was visited by an uninvited guest - Eric Young. The leader of SAnitY slowly walked towards the Wyatt House before being stopped in his track by The Reaper himself. "What business do you have here?" he bellowed as Young began to smirk. "Bray, I believe I have something of interest to you", Young responded. As Wyatt looked into his eyes, the two seemed to stare into each other's souls as Young continued, "I have your Sister Abigail, my friend". Wyatt's eyes widen as he looks over Young's shoulder and begins to laugh maniacally. "Brother" he says, "You have truly done it now". And the pair start to laugh hysterically in a psychotic manner before the screen cuts away in signature Wyatt fashion, with the sound of a high-pitched scream in the background as the scene cuts to black. This was certainly weird, but it was far from wonderful. This is sure to be a powerful evil at work. What did Eric Young mean? Sister Abigail has arrived.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/9FTZZpW.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/9FTZZpW.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Bianca Belair def.

After Biance Belair tried to hog the spotlight from Candice LeRae and Dakota Kai last week, she showed that she was only out for herself. This didn't sit well with her allies which led to this bout as Candice looked to knock The EST down a peg or two. Unfortunately, thanks to the use of her signature hair whip and her overpowering strength, Belair was able to defeat Candice with the KOD, planting her face-first into the canvas. Her ego may control most of her character, but you cannot deny her raw talent either. The EST celebrated another victory, wiping her feet on the mat and flicking up the dirt onto Candice before leaving. Belair just sent a message, that she is the dominant superstar in ECW's women's division.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/vLdrLhf.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/vLdrLhf.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Jeff Hardy def. Dean Ambrose in an Asylum Match</b></div></p><p> It has all come down to this. The bad blood between Jeff Hardy and Dean Ambrose has culminated in this barbaric match, created from the mind of Ambrose himself - the Asylum Match. Inside a steel structure that is covered in dangerous metals and lined with rust, the cage barely even looked safe to be near, let alone compete inside of. The two competitors stood across from each other, ready to unleash all hell on their adversary. The fight quickly got underway and it wasn't long before the steel became a weapon, Hardy throwing The Lunatic Fringe head-first into the cage wall. Ambrose responded in kind, catapulting The Charismatic Enigma into the steel as well. Back and forth they battled, with Ambrose delivering his signature Dirty Deeds and looking to pick up the victory, but Hardy was able to kick out at two. He battled back and hit his own signature move, dropping Ambrose with the Twist of Fate and going for the win himself, but it would take more than that to keep Ambrose down. As the battle raged on, Hardy took to the skies and plummeted from the very top of the Asylum cage, descending on his nemesis with unbelievable impact like a falling meteor. After a gruelling bout that resulted in Ambrose's skull being opened up by the dangerous cage wall, Jeff Hardy was able to ascend one last time and deliver his incredible Swanton Bomb to secure the victory. The former World Champion had finally beaten his arch-rival and in his own structure at that. The blood, the sweat, the carnage, it had all been left inside the Asylum and only Jeff Hardy was able to walk out under his own power. Where does this leave Dean Ambrose? And where does Jeff Hardy go from here? Whatever happens, this was one of the greatest main events in ECW history and had everything the ECW stands for. Two men entered the Asylum, and only one man walked out. The Charistmatic Enigma stands tall to close ECW.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

The Sinister Scot manhandled the WCW World Champion, AJ Styles following his main event bout with WCW United States Champion, Adam Cole. McIntyre laid waste to his future adversary and made an impactful statement, making it clear that he intends to become the WCW World Champion at WCW SuperBrawl. The Scot Terminator made his way to the ring to thunderous boos, but cared little for the crowd's reaction. He addressed his current standing as number one contender and declared it was a "sure thing" that he would leave WCW SuperBrawl with the gold, believing it to be his true calling. After years and years of setbacks, he has finally reached where he knows he belongs, and there's nobody that can stop him. He then mentions that tonight, he and AJ Styles will share the same ring in a tag team match, and he vows that tonight's episode of WCW Nitro will end in the exact same manner as last week - with AJ Styles in a bloodied, battered mess at the feet of the next WCW World Champion - Drew McIntyre.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/xxoqFf6.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/xxoqFf6.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Seth Rollins def.

The Architect kicked off the in-ring action in a bout with The Sinister Songsmith, Elias and was able to walk out victorious after hitting his adversary with The Stomp. However, as the former World Champion returned up the aisle towards the backstage area, he turned for a moment to give the WCW fans one last show of appreciation. This turned out to be a big mistake as Samoa Joe emerged from out of nowhere and crept up behind his rival, applying the Coquina Clutch and dragging him to the floor. He continued to wrench away even when officials arrived to separate the two. The Destroyer shifted into an unstable mind as he tightened his grip, screaming "You did this to yourself, you son of a bitch!" as referees and security did anything they could to pry him away. Eventually, they managed to pull him out of the hold and regain control, but the damage had been done. The bad blood between these two men isn't going to disappear, and it seems like it's only heading one way.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/D5vfcey.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/D5vfcey.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Asuka & Kairi Sane def.

Asuka made quick work of the debuting Lacey Evans last week, while Kairi Sane put on an incredible performance against Charlotte Flair. Tonight, they united against the team of Billie Kay and Peyton Royce, better known as The IIconics. While the Australian duo may have the most experience as a unit, they couldn't overcome the intensity of The Empress of Tomorrow and The Pirate Princess, with Kay receiving a huge InSane Elbow and Royce finding herself trapped in the Asuka Lock, forced to submit.

Their intentions are still very much a mystery, but tonight we got to see El Idolo in action. His opponent was another luchadore in Kalisto, and an impressive contest took place between the two highly skilled superstars. However, after Almas used Kalisto's mask against him, pulling it down over his eyes in an act of disrespect in their Mexican culture, he delivered his signature Hammerlock DDT for the victory. After the match, Zelina Vega grabbed a microphone and claimed that Rey Mysterio does not compare to Andrade "Cien" Almas, and isn't even in the same league. She revealed that their presence last week was to take the opportunity to witness on of the great Rey Mysterio's last matches, before El Idolo forces him into the shadows as the inferior luchadore. As they left ringside, many were still left confused as to where this animosity came from, but nonetheless, it seems that the gauntlet has been set.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/QERyg8R.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/QERyg8R.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Velveteen Dream mockingly apologises for his actions last week against Ric Flair</b></div></p><p> Last week's edition of WCW Nitro had a horrifying start. As the General Manager, Ric Flair took to the ring to make announce the upcoming WCW SuperBrawl event, he was interrupted by The Velveteen Dream who not only disrespect Flair and the entire WCW locker room, but viciously assaulted The Nature Boy in a vile attack that left the former 16-time World Champion requiring medical attention. The Dream made his way to the ring this week, receiving a lot of hostility from the WCW crowd, initially looking regretful of his actions. As he entered the ring and grabbed a microphone, he began to express his disappointment in himself, claiming to be filled with regret being disgusted in himself. But it quickly became clear that this apology was insincere as he exclaimed what he regretted was not finishing the job and making sure The Nature Boy never styled and profiled ever again! Going on a hateful rant, The Velveteen Dream declared that WCW Nitro isn't worth his time, and what he did to Ric Flair last week was only a small piece of what should have been done, and when Flair returns he will make sure he finished the job this time. "You want an apology?" he asked the WCW crowd, "Well you can kiss my ass, sisters!" he shouted before dropping the microphone and raising his hands into the air, as if it wash his hands of the matter. The Velveteen Dream left the ring with a smug grin as the WCW fans rained down boos on him. But he didn't care, he wasn't at all interested.

With Adam Cole currently holding the United States Championship as well, they are well on their way to taking over WCW Nitro in its entirety. But hot on their heels were The War Raiders who were granted a title match on tonight's episode, hoping to cut O'Reilly and Fish's reign short. However, with Cole and Roderick Strong once again at ringside to play a vital role, throwing Hanson into the steel steps on the outside while the official was distracted, it allowed KOR to apply the guillotine choke and cause Rowe to pass out, meaning that The Undisputed ERA would retain the titles and remain in control of the tag team division. They celebrated the win and Adam Cole took to the ring to make a statement, declaring that he was challenging anyone in the back to rise to the occasion and earn their place as number one contender for his title at WCW SuperBrawl.

This week, he took on Akira Tozawa and once again displayed a merciless aggression, beating down his fellow countryman and eventually delivering a stiff Go To Sleep to his adversary for the victory. However, as Itami once again grabbed a microphone as he had done just two weeks ago and began shouting in his native language, he was caught off-guard by a returning Mustafa Ali. The WCW Cruiserweight Champion unleashed a vengeful attack on the Japanese sensation to the delight of the fans, eventually throwing him to the outside and launching himself over the ropes to take down his rival. Officials rushed to ringside and regained control of the situation as Ali retreated, shouting at Itami as he was ushered to the back. Hideo looked on in a fit of rage, realising that he had been humiliated by Ali, and his own actions had come back to haunt him.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/04sx9Fv.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/04sx9Fv.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Women's World Champion Becky Lynch accepts Charlotte Flair's challenge; Lacey Evans interrupts and pays for it</b></div></p><p> One of the main talking points of this week's edition of WCW Nitro was the impending arrival of Women's World Champion, Becky Lynch. The WWE Raw superstar revealed she would be in attendance tonight this past week on WWE Raw, responding to Charlotte Flair's challenge last week. The time had come as The Queen took to the ring and called out The Man, eager to hear her response in person. Of course, Becky Lynch arrived and confronted her challenger, exchanging a war of words before she eventually accepted and confirmed that she would be in attendance at WCW SuperBrawl to defend the Women's World Championship against Charlotte Flair. However, their heated confrontation was soon cut short by the confusing arrival of Lacey Evans. The self-proclaimed Lady of WCW came to the ring and berated the two superstars in the ring, declaring herself the only true woman in the ring, expressing her disgust that Becky Lynch would call herself The Man. She soon came to regret her words as she was booted in the face by The Queen, and then dragged to the canvas into a Dis-Arm-Her by Becky Lynch. After Lacey Evans had been dealt her dose of pain, Becky and Charlotte once again came face-to-face and stood just inches apart, clearly ready for their battle in two weeks. Will Charlotte Flair be able to bring the Women's World Championship to WCW Nitro?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/uHKuttC.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/uHKuttC.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ricochet def. Jinder Mahal</b></div></p><p> With an impressive debut under his belt, securing a victory over the legendary Chris Jericho last week, Ricochet had already kicked off his Nitro career with a bang, defeating a former World Champion. Tonight, The One and Only once again overcame the odds by putting away another former World Champion, Jinder Mahal, despite the presence of his two henchman, Sunil and Samir Singh. The high-flyer took down The Singh Brothers with a double dropkick, sending them crashing from the apron, and went on to take Mahal down and finish The Modern Day Maharajah off with the outstanding 630 Senton. As he celebrated yet another monumental victory, he noticed a figure out of the corner of his eye. Y2J himself had emerged on the aisle, smirking at the man who beat him last week. The King of the World simply spread out his arms and gave a sinister grin towards Richochet who was beckoning the iconic superstar to join him in the ring. What was Jericho's intention coming out and getting the attention of The One and Only?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/wAJVuTA.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/wAJVuTA.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Drew McIntyre & Dolph Ziggler def. WCW World Champion AJ Styles & Shinsuke Nakamura</b></div></p><p> Drew McIntyre made it very clear which title he intended to challenge for as his reward for winning the Men's Royal Rumble Match. The Scot Terminator opened the show to officially declare his intention to challenge AJ Styles for the WCW World Championship at WCW SuperBrawl, and in the process revealed this tag team main event. Of course, McIntyre had his close ally, Dolph Ziggler already in the bag as his tag team partner, but The Phenomenal One's decision was still a mystery right up until the opening bell. Shinsuke Nakamura emerged to answer the call of his enemy-turned-ally and compete alongside the WCW World Champion. After an incredible main event bout, it still wasn't enough to keep the momentum of Drew McIntyre down, as he and The Show-off were able to score a huge victory over Styles and Nakamura, isolating The Phenomenal One and delivering their signature Claymore/Zigzag combination. After the match, The Sinister Scot stood over his SuperBrawl opponent and snatched the WCW World Championship from the official, raising it above his own head in what may be a sign of things to come, very similar to the end of last week's show, as McIntyre correctly predicted earlier in the night. AJ Styles' days as Champion may very well be numbered.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

Now the wait begins as Roman Reigns opened up this week's episode to reveal that the date had been set and he would face Daniel Bryan in two weeks, live on WWE Raw! After addressing the time and place of his title bout, he went on to express how much it means to him to reach the top again after his recent battle with leukaemia. The Big Dog declared that this wasn't just for him, but for everyone who is fighting for something or someone in their life, and to prove that no matter what the odds, we can overcome them together. But his emotional address was rudely interrupted by the arrival of a disrespectful A-Lister - The Miz. He and his wife, Maryse exclaimed that it should be him competing for the WWE World Championship, believing he was wrongly defeated as he was never pinned. Reigns invited him into the ring, only for him to decline and claim that he would be seeking advice on the matter. But as he turned away, he was cut off by General Manager, Stone Cold Steve Austin who informed The Miz that he needn't seek any advice, because the answer is "Hell no"! He then explained that The Miz was due for action tonight - right now in fact - against Roman Reigns!</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/reGPcoh.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/reGPcoh.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Roman Reigns def. The Miz</b></div></p><p> It seems as though The Miz wasn't prepared to be thrown into a match by Stone Cold, but it was obvious that Austin didn't give a damn. The bell rang for the impromptu bout and The Big Dog struck his A-List adversary with everything he had. To his credit, The Miz put up a fight against Reigns once he found his footing, but it was the number one contender who hit the final blow, drilling him with a Spear as Maryse watched on in horror. With a victory under his belt, Reigns could continue to look ahead to his title bout with Daniel Bryan in two weeks time. Could The Big Dog be just a short while away from recapturing the title he once held and once again standing tall over the competition? If it's anything to do with "The New" Daniel Bryan though, it will be no easy task. At least the doubt raised by The Miz could now be put to rest - he's just been pinned by Roman Reigns.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/60xMbOv.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/60xMbOv.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Bobby Lashley def. Chad Gable</b></div></p><p> With the appointment of Lio Rush as his adviser, Bobby Lashley's career resurgence continued into this week. It seems that the partnership with Rush has lit a fire beneath Lashley and put him back on the right track, scoring a victory over Apollo Crews last week, and picking up another win over Chad Gable this week. The All-Mighty showcased his power against the talented Gable, driving him into the canvas with his signature Dominator for the win. After the bell, Lio Rush once again took to the microphone as he did last week, bellowing "All hail The All-Mighty, Bobby Lashley!" to a negative reaction from the WWE Universe. Lashley may be back on winning terms, but at what cost? Regardless, the former United States Champion seemed to care little for the crowd's opinion and celebrated with his ally in victory.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/hJtvWbR.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/hJtvWbR.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ronda Rousey def. Alexa Bliss via disqualification; Nia Jax assaults Rousey</b></div></p><p> After defeating Mickie James last week and sending a warning to Little Miss Bliss, Alexa was forced to fend for herself in this bout with The Rowdy One. And with Mickie on the sidelines with an injury sustained during her battle with Rousey, it truly was a one-on-one situation. While she was able to hold her own against the former UFC Champion, it was only a matter of time before Rousey saw the opening to apply her signature armbar and secure the win. But before she could lock in the devastating hold, she was blindsided by none other than Nia Jax. The Irresistible Force ran right through The Rowdy One, causing the disqualification and astonishingly manhandled the former cage fighter, planting her with a huge Samoan Drop, laying her out in the center of the ring. Jax gave a glare to Alexa Bliss who wanted no part of the monstrous female, quickly fleeing from ringside. Nia Jax stood tall over The Most Dangerous Woman on the Planet, having potentially put her own name forward to take that moniker for herself. What does Jax want with Rousey?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/xZVpaul.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/xZVpaul.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>"The New" Daniel Bryan berates the WWE Universe and vows to defeat Roman Reigns in two weeks</b></div></p><p> Everybody has their own opinions and lifestyle choices, but Daniel Bryan refuses to stop until everyone sees the world as he does. The WWE World Champion appeared before the WWE Universe on the titantron to berate them for the way they live their lives, calling them "disgusting, blood-hungry creatures". This didn't sit well with the fans in attendance, but their response only made Bryan more eager to push his message upon them. Once he had finished lecturing the public on what they should and should not do, he then addressed his challenger, Roman Reigns. Bryan declared that he isn't afraid of The Big Dog, vowing to retain his title in two weeks and set yet another fine example of what a Champion should be.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/TG6wi6x.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/TG6wi6x.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Street Profits def. WWE Tag Team Champions The Revival</b></div></p><p> Last week, The Revival issued an open challenge that was unexpectedly answered by the debuting Heavy Machinery, landing them with a shock loss. This week, the WWE Tag Team Champions stormed to the ring to demand a rematch with Otis and Tucker, claiming their victory to be a simple fluke. However, rather than the two big men responding to the call, Dash and Dawson were greeted by another brand new team in The Street Profits. Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins made their way to the ring and issued their own challenge to reigning title holders, and in the heat of the moment, The Revival accepted. This led to yet another upset which saw The Street Profits defeat Dawson with a Pop-up Spinebuster and a Frog Splash combination, landing perhaps their biggest win ever. As the pair left with their debut victory now under their belt, The Revival were once again left furious at their loss. Are the WWE Tag Team Champions having some bad luck or what?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ObYkkL5.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ObYkkL5.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Randy Orton def. Braun Strowman</b></div></p><p> They may have come up short in last week's number one contendership main event, but that didn't stop them wanting to continue clawing their way to the top. Randy Orton and Braun Strowman clashed one-on-one hoping to redeem last week's unfortunate loss, but as we all know, only one man can walk away with that privilege. The Monster Among Men used his brute force to keep Orton at bay, but if we know anything it's that The Viper can strike at any time. After slipping out of a powerslam attempt, Orton struck with the RKO, grounding the big man instantly. But somehow, Strowman was able to kick out! In a state of shock, Orton looked around wondering what he has to do to keep his adversary down, only to deliver a second, more impactful RKO and pick up the win. The Viper stood tall having slayed the giant and left the ring in celebration before Strowman could get back to his feet. Having taken two RKOs, how will Strowman move forward from this devastating loss?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ozFU3HR.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ozFU3HR.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Mike Kanellis def. Heath Slater</b></div></p><p> The lovebirds made their arrival on WWE Raw last week, shoving their romance down the throats of anyone watching. Tonight though, we got the chance to see Mike Kanellis in action, and he's far from a lover in the ring, showing his aggression and laying waste to Heath Slater with his ability. He planted The One Man Band with his Power of Love to secure the victory and celebrated with his loving wife. An uncomfortable display of affection closed the match as the two expressed their love for one another in front of the world. Is it sweet? Maybe just a little. But it's definitely something that we're all going to get tired of hearing.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/BP9F5gd.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/BP9F5gd.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Bobby Roode vs. John Cena never began</b></div></p><p> A match was scheduled between Bobby Roode and John Cena this week at Roode's request after he believed that the former 16-time World Champion cost him his Intercontinental Championship against Tyler Bate. Cena made his way to the ring, ready to take on The Glorious One that he had put in his place last week, but as the lights went out for Roode's signature entrance, The Cenation Leader was assaulted from behind. When the lights returned, Roode was already in the ring and began beating down on his adversary, repeatedly shouting that he had cost him his title. The former Intercontinental Champion planted Cena with a Glorious DDT before officials rushed to ringside to regain order. The match was apparently thrown out as Roode was escorted up the aisle, leaving Cena reeling. The former World Champion managed to get to his feet and looked out to Roode at the top of the stage with a glare. John Cena doesn't forget, and this is sure to come to a head soon enough.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/caX4aik.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/caX4aik.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Women's World Champion Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks & Bayley def. Absolution</b></div></p><p> Having friends to watch your back is always good, especially when you find yourself outnumbered. Becky Lynch found this out when Absolution decided to unleash a 3-on-1 attack on the Women's World Champion last week, only for Sasha Banks and Bayley to come to the aid of their close friend. With the three females standing side-by-side, the score was evened and it led to this huge Six-Woman Tag Team main event. Paige led her team into battle, hoping that she, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville could score a huge victory over the three former Women's Champions, but it wasn't to be. The unity of Lynch, Banks and Bayley was undeniable and after a long battle, it was The Man's devastating Dis-Arm-Her that ended the night for Absolution, landing them with the victory. Three of the Four Horsewomen had reunited on WWE Raw and were victorious in the process, standing side-by-side in victory and sharing an emotional embrace. And while the show faded to a close and left the air, Becky Lynch decided that she had something she wanted to get off her chest, and it involved the absent fourth Horsewoman - WCW Nitro's Charlotte Flair.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ZIQJj3p.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ZIQJj3p.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Post-Show Exclusive: Becky Lynch reveals she will be at WCW Nitro this week to confront Charlotte Flair and respond to her challenge</b></div></p><p> The Man grabbed a microphone from ringside and thanked the live crowd for their attendance, but it wasn't just a heartfelt thankyou she was giving. She demanded that a camera be recording her as she looked dead into the lens, addressing Charlotte Flair. The Women's World Champion acknowledged The Queen's challenge she made last week on WCW Nitro and promised that she would be there in person this week to respond. Raising her hand to the camera, The Man told Flair to "bring it on, bitch!" as the camera quickly cut away. The battle lines have been drawn, and we're going to see Becky Lynch traverse the brand divide to confront The Queen in what is sure to be a must-see moment this week on WCW Nitro.

Finally defeating Kevin Owens, Bálor stood tall and held the extreme prize in front of a jam-packed crowd. Tonight, he came to the ring to celebrate his victory with his Bálor Club - the ECW faithful. Thanking them for their support, Bálor promised that he would always give them the show that they deserve and always take it to the extreme. But his speech was cut short by the arrival of an unexpected guest in Johnny Gargano. Cutting right to the chase, he congratulated Bálor on his victory before suggesting that he be the first man to challenge for his newly won ECW World Championship. Vowing to earn his position as number one contender, Johnny Wrestling challenge Bálor to a non-title bout tonight with the understanding that if he wins, he will be next in line for a title shot. The Extraordinary Man acknowledge his requested and extended his hand, sealing the deal. In what appears to be a respectful agreement, Johnny Gargano will take on Finn Bálor in tonight's main event and if Gargano wins, he becomes the number one contender for the ECW World Championship.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/Gm7FQoa.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/Gm7FQoa.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae & Dakota Kai def.

The three females went up against ECW's resident rebels, The Riott Squad and somehow came out on top after showcasing each of their unique abilities. Belair picked up the deciding pin with her KOD. After the match, the trio celebrated their victory, but it appeared that Bianca Belair was trying to ensure the spotlight was solely on her. As LeRae and Kai took issue with this, Belair shrugged them off and left the ring alone, leaving them confused. It seems like The EST doesn't want to share the glory with anyone else.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/m82AjWW.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/m82AjWW.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Kassius Ohno def.

After weeks of torment at the hands of Rusev Day, Kassius Ohno finally got the victory over The Bulgarian Brute, knocking him out with his patented KO Elbow. Aiden English and Lana tried to prevent their beloved Rusev from losing, but Ohno was so focused on victory tonight that nothing could stop him. He slipped out of The Accolade and delivered the final blow for the win and stood tall before the ECW fans. Raising his hand into the air, he bellowed that his time is now, and he could be right. Rusev Day retreated in anger, realising that their moment had just been cancelled, courtesy of a KO Elbow.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/LUTCkqu.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/LUTCkqu.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Rob Van Dam def. Bray Wyatt; Lars Sullivan strikes</b></div></p><p> Rob Van Dam entered the Royal Rumble at number 2 to represent ECW, but despite a valiant showing he was unable to win. Also entering the bout for The Land of Extreme was the dark and devious Bray Wyatt, and the two collided tonight on ECW in a back and forth match. The Eater of Worlds looked to continued his dominant streak since arriving in ECW, but he was no match for the former World Champion, RVD who was able to put The Reaper away with an impressive Five-Star Frog Splash, utilising a steel chair for added impact. Almost immediately following the ring bell, Van Dam was blindsided by none other than the monstrous Lars Sullivan. Flanked by his "handler", Drew Gulak, Sullivan went on to tear RVD apart with vicious intent, eventually throwing him and himself from the ring apron through a table with a uranage that had the crowd chanting "Holy shit!". Gulak grabbed a microphone and declared Rob Van Dam as part of the problem here in ECW, but now everyone can consider it "problem solved". Officials rushed to tend to RVD as Sullivan and Gulak left ringside having done the damage.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/xkBUUsd.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/xkBUUsd.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Kevin Owens turns on his best friend Sami Zayn in horrifying act of violence</b></div></p><p> Safe to say, Kevin Owens was furious about losing the ECW World Championship at the Royal Rumble, and we were always guaranteed to hear about how angry he is. But nobody could have expected what transpired. The Prizefighter came to the ring, alongside his best friend, Sami Zayn to address the ECW crowd about his loss this past weekend. With rage in his voice, he screamed that he should still be the ECW World Champion, and he should be the one in tonight's main event, but instead he's here without a match having to plead and beg to be noticed yet again. While he seems set on blaming his loss on the disrespect given to him by the fans, he then surprisingly turns to his best friend and simply asks "Where were you?". The Underdog looks confused and is about to respond when Owens screams directly into his face "Where were you?!". Of course, Zayn provides his answer, explaining that he was preparing for the Men's Royal Rumble Match and Owens knew that. KO ran his hands through his hair and took a deep breath, seeming to calm down and going on to apologise to Zayn for lashing out. The pair embrace and all seems well until Owens strikes, kicking Zayn between the legs with a low blow! The crowd watch in horror as he unloads a rage-fuelled attack on the man he called his best friend, repeatedly smacking him in the head with right hand after right hand. The former ECW World Champion grabbed a steel chair from ringside and proceeded to beat Zayn senseless with the weapon. The final act of evil was committed when he wrapped the steel chair around Zayn's neck and let out an almighty roar before driving his foot into the chair, crushing the throat of his former ally. "What is wrong with this psycho?!" shouted Michael Cole as Owens stepped back, watching Zayn writhe around the canvas in pain, blood pouring from his mouth. He stood back with a vacant stare and sunk into the corner as medical personnel rushed to the scene. Owens was escorted away from ringside as Zayn was lifted onto a stretcher. Kevin Owens has crossed the line.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/12akVbJ.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/12akVbJ.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Dudley Boyz def. The Colóns</b></div></p><p> They may have been unsuccessful in their attempts to become ECW Tag Team Champions, but The Dudley Boyz are back nonetheless. Bubba Ray and D-Von returned to action this week with a victory over Primo and Epico Colón, redeeming their loss last week by putting Primo through a table with a 3-D for the win. After the match, the multi-time Tag Team Champions celebrated, only to be confronted by the very team that defeated them last week, the ECW Tag Team Champions - The Bludgeon Brothers. The two teams stood across the ring from each other in a tense moment that had the ECW faithful going wild. But rather than come to blows, Harper and Rowan left the ring and left, clearly out there to send a message to The Dudleyz and nothing more. These two teams are sure to collide again in the future, and it will be one you won't want to miss when they do.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ZrrTuXX.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ZrrTuXX.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Shayna Baszler def.

But she was one of Paul Heyman's special signings and now Baszler resides in The Land of Extreme. The Submission Magician was victorious in her ECW debut, forcing Dana Brooke to submit to the Kirifuda Driver as Dana's close friend, Natalya watched on from her corner at ringside. The former cage fighter stood tall in victory and motioned for Natalya to come and get a piece of the action, but she pulled her friend from the ring and helped her up the aisle. Could this be a sign of things to come? Will we get to see The Queen of Spades and The Queen of Harts collide in ECW?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/muRtWfX.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/muRtWfX.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Dean Ambrose challenges Jeff Hardy to an Asylum Match next week on ECW</b></div></p><p> The phrase "bitter enemies" isn't enough to describe the relationship between Dean Ambrose and Jeff Hardy, and after weeks of back and forth torment, it found its way into the Men's Royal Rumble Match when Jeff Hardy entered and made a beeline for Ambrose, eliminating both him and himself from the match, showing no concern for the match itself, but only on getting his hands on The Lunatic Fringe. Ambrose made his way to the ring on ECW to address his rage at Jeff Hardy's actions and promised that he would regret the day he ever crossed him. But he wasn't just out here to express his emotions, as he made an official challenge to The Charismatic Enigma for a match next week. Not just any match. An Asylum Match. What is that, you ask? Who knows. Perhaps it only exists in the mind of the deranged lunatic, but whatever the case, he invited Hardy to face him in what he described as "his own personal hell" where he vows to put an end to Hardy's superhero image and show the ECW fans the true Jeff Hardy. What will Ambrose have in store for his nemesis inside his suspiciously-named construction?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/qKitoSe.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/qKitoSe.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Aleister Black def. Oney Lorcan</b></div></p><p> The Dutch Destroyer entered the Royal Rumble Match after putting his rivalry with SAnitY behind him, and tonight looked to continue forward to get himself back on the right path. Oney Lorcan proved to be a worthy opponent for The Ominous Man, but with Black's determination to get back on the winning side, he was unable to take him down. One Black Mass later and Lorcan was out cold, allowing Aleister Black to secure the victory and get back to his winning ways. With SAnitY now in his past, where will The Dutch Destroyer go from here? He's a man of many mysteries, so the answer won't be clear, but wherever he goes from here, there's every chance that it's going to be truly evil.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/jKHLgHp.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/jKHLgHp.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Johnny Gargano def. ECW World Champion Finn Bálor to become number one contender for the ECW World Championship</b></div></p><p> Maybe Johnny Gargano's respectful challenge wasn't so genuine after all. He and Finn Bálor clashed in tonight's main event, a match that was agreed at the top of the show under what was believed to be a mutual respect agreement. It began as expected, with a handshake and a display of pure in-ring ability. Back and forth the pair went in one of ECW's greatest main events in history, both men scoring two counts left and right with the ECW faithful going crazy for the impressive display they were watching. But just as The Extraordinary Man appeared to be gaining the upper hand as he ascended the ropes for his Coup de Grace, he was suddenly tripped, landing in no man's land on the top turnbuckle. And the man who tripped him? Tommaso freakin' Ciampa. The Psycho Killer emerged in ECW uninvited and entered the ring, pulling Bálor from the top rope and planting him with a Project Ciampa. He then turned his attention to his former ally, Johnny Gargano, grabbing him by the head and pulling him to his feet, presumably as his next victim. But on... Ciampa embraced Gargano and the two had grins from ear-to-ear, both turning their attention to the fallen ECW World Champion. They deliver their old signature Meeting in the Middle, knocking Bálor out cold, which allowed Gargano to hook the leg as Ciampa screamed at the official to count the three. Johnny Wrestling had sold out, and the ECW fans made sure that he knew it. The former DIY, now reunited, stood tall over the ECW World Champion looking proud of their handiwork, knowing that Gargano had manipulated his way into the ECW World Championship picture. This disgusting act of disrespect left the ECW fans in a rage, but two people who certaintly didn't care what they thought was Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

General Manager, Ric Flair opened the show to reveal that WCW's exclusive event will take place in three weeks and would see an iconic event make its return - WCW SuperBrawl! But moments after the blockbuster announcement, The Velveteen Dream crashed the party and confronted The Nature Boy in the center of the ring, damning him for making him enter the Men's Royal Rumble Match at number one, resulting in him being forced to stay in WCW Nitro what he considers to be a "cesspool of talentless nobodies". Flair responded by informing The Dream that he isn't going to get away with his behaviour any more and promises that he will be forced to compete as he promised. But this didn't sit well with the flamboyant superstar who shockingly assaulted the WCW General Manager, unleashing a heinous attack and repeatedly stomping down on the WCW figurehead. The Dream left Flair laying before security rushed the ring and apprehended him, removing him from the ringside are by force as medical personnel tended to The Nature Boy. What has come over The Velveteen Dream?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/sKaMVkY.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Undisputed ERA def. The War Raiders, The Bar & The Good Brothers to become WCW Tag Team Champions</b></div> WCW SuperBrawl may now be just around the corner, but the WCW Tag Team Championships were set to be awarded tonight to the winner of this huge Fatal 4-Way bout. All four teams were eager to get their hands on the vacant gold and bodies were flying everywhere as they scratched and clawed their way to victory. Perhaps not so surprisingly, Roderick Strong and the WCW United States Champion, Adam Cole were at ringside and played a vital role in Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly's success, keeping The War Raiders at bay during the bout. And once The Bar had been taken down by Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson, they were left to suffer the loss as they dumped Gallows out of the ring and hit Anderson with the High/Low for the victory. The Undisputed ERA had claimed yet another piece of gold for their collection, standing alongside Adam Cole with his own title, and Roderick Strong making a gesture that it was his turn next, perhaps looking towards a title of his own. But which?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/y5QoeO5.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Asuka def. Lacey Evans</b></div> Welcome to Nitro, Lacey! The self-proclaimed "Lady" of WCW Nitro, Lacey Evans made her debut in the Women's Royal Rumble Match entering at number 30, but unfortunately for her, she was a target for everyone involved in the match at that point and was unceremoniously dumped over the ropes before she even had a chance to showcase her ability. Looking to redeem herself, she took to the ring tonight for her singles debut, only to come face-to-face with The Empress of Tomorrow, Asuka. After coming so close this past weekend, Asuka was not in the best of moods and was here to take out her frustrations on anyone she could get her hands on. It just so happens that tonight it was Lacey Evans. Once again, The Lady was stopped before she could even begin and fell victim to the Asuka Lock, forcing her to submit. The Japanese superstar stood tall and screamed with the WCW Universe behind her, showing respect for her valiant effort. But sure enough, Asuka will rise again and have her opportunity when the time is right.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/E9XtugP.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Rey Mysterio def. EC3</b></div> It seems as though a certain duo have taken an interest in Rey Mysterio. As The Master of the 619 competed against EC3 tonight on WCW Nitro, they were joined at ringside by Andrade "Cien" Almas and Zelina Vega. The pair surveyed the ringside area and watched on as Mysterio went toe-to-toe with his opponent. However, their presence seemed to distract the former World Champion more than anything and perhaps threw him off his game, but this didn't stop him from claiming victory, tripping EC3 up onto the ropes, delivering the 619 and finishing him off with a Frog Splash for the win. After the match, Mysterio glared out through the ropes at his observers, but Almas and Vega stepped away from the ring, only to shake their heads and walk away as the masked luchadore looked on in confusion. What was all that about?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/F8550VK.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Michael Cole provides an update on Ric Flair's current condition</b></div> After the shocking display earlier in the night that saw The Velveteen Dream assault General Manager, Ric Flair, many were left wondering of the condition of The Nature Boy. Michael Cole was on hand to provide a medical update on the 16-time World Champion, claiming that he had been taken to a nearby medical facility for stitches and luckily hasn't suffered any major injuries. "The Dream was just doing what he had to to get noticed" declared Corey Graves, receiving some shocked expressions from Cole and Saxton. Wishing Ric Flair a speedy recovery, the commentary team signed off by informing us that The Velveteen Dream had been escorted from the arena by security and has been suspended until further notice. But as the saying goes - the show must go on.</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/OCTJ88Q.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Samoa Joe def. Shinsuke Nakamura</b></div> The Destroyer was furious that he had lost to AJ Styles at the Royal Rumble despite vowing to take the WCW World Championship from him. With his chance gone, he was on a war path and Shinsuke Nakamura was his first victim. The King of Strong Style put up a fight as always, both these men knowing each other very well and they went back-and-forth for what seemed like an eternity until Samoa Joe unleashed his pent up aggression and put Nakamura away with the Muscle Buster. But after the bell, Joe continued to assault his adversary, beating him down repeatedly with a crazed look in his eye. It wasn't until Seth Rollins emerged to make the save that the onslaught stopped and The Architect took his arch-rival down a peg. With Samoa Joe in retreat, Seth Rollins tended to Nakamura in the ring, showing that this rivalry is far from over. They've torn chunks out of each other for the last six weeks and there's no end in sight. But when it comes down to it, only one of them will be able to leave in one piece, and they know that. When will this bitter rivalry come to an end?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/Qr5pYLJ.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Charlotte Flair def. Kairi Sane</b></div> Despite the situation with her father earlier in the night, Charlotte Flair put on a brave face and took to the ring for action against the impressive Kairi Sane. With her father clearly still at the back of her mind, Charlotte looked to be somewhat distracted, but still powere through and after an unbelievable battle with The Pirate Princess, it was The Queen that walked away with the victory, forcing her to submit to the Figure-Eight Leglock. After the match, Flair grabbed the microphone and wished her father a speedy recovery before stating that she intended to put her name forward to challenge Becky Lynch for the Women's World Championship at WCW SuperBrawl, inviting The Man to the brand-exclusive event to defend her title. But can Charlotte Flair just put herself in that position when so many other superstars are eligible to compete for the gold? Either way, she is the first to lay out the challenge. Will Becky Lynch respond?</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/fdZBvJV.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ricochet def. Chris Jericho</b></div> Chris Jericho is known for his mouth and his ego, both of which he displayed on tonight's WCW Nitro. The former World Champion took to the ring and demanded some respect after being overlooked the last few weeks and being disrespected in the Men's Royal Rumble by being entered early at number 10. Issuing an open challenge to any "jackass" that thinks they're better than him, he stood ready for battle, only to be greeted by the debuting Ricochet to the delight of the WCW crowd. The high-flying superstar answered the challenge and went toe-to-toe with the legendary Y2J in an incredible bout. Jericho believed he had Ricochet beat with the Walls of Jericho at one point, but Ricochet's leg strength allowed him to escape the hold and hit a huge leaping roundhouse kick before delivering his awe-inspiring 630 Senton and picking up perhaps the biggest victory of his entire career. The WCW Universe erupted as Ricochet secured the win and left Jericho looking on in a fit of rage. If we know Y2J, he won't let this go, and Ricochet may very well have to have eyes in the back of his head going forward in his WCW career. But nonetheless, The One and Only has arrived in Nitro!</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/Mr5IIB1.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>WCW World Champion AJ Styles def. WCW United States Champion Adam Cole</b></div> Champion versus Champion. What better way to close the night? AJ Styles and Adam Cole clashed in a huge main event, both having momentum heading into it. The Phenomenal One was just days removed from retaining his World Championship against Samoa Joe at the Royal Rumble, while earlier in the night, Adam Cole's Undisputed ERA captured the WCW Tag Team Championships, making this match even more exciting. As both Champions gave there all to be the best Champion WCW Nitro has to offer, they pulled out all the stops. Bobby Fish, Kyle O'Reilly and Roderick Strong stood at ringside to support their leader in this unique matchup, but even with all the distractions, The Phenomenal One was able to overcome the odds, knocking Roderick Strong off the ring apron into Fish and O'Reilly to subdue the outside interference and then hit Adam Cole with a Phenomenal Forearm to claim the win. The WCW World Champion raised his title in celebration, having crowned himself the Champion of Champions on this occasion, but his victory was soon dampened by the arrival of the man of the moment, the Men's Royal Rumble winner - Drew McIntyre!</div> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/NlrtXhq.png"><div style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Drew McIntyre strikes and reveals he will challenge for the WCW World Championship at WCW SuperBrawl</b></div> AJ Styles was blindsided by a vicious Claymore kick, grounding the WCW World Champion instantly. The Sinister Scot then went on to brutalise The Phenomenal One, hitting him with three consecutive Future Shock DDTs before standing over the bloodied and battered superstar. Grabbing a microphone, the Royal Rumble winner declared that he would be cashing in his privilege to challenge for any World Championship at WCW SuperBrawl, revealing that he will face AJ Styles in the main event. And with that, he grabbed the WCW World Championship and raised it into the air as Styles writhed in pain on the canvas. Could this be a sign of things to come when The Phenomenal One defends his gold against The Scot Terminator at WCW SuperBrawl?</div></div> <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

The Irish superstar took to the ring to open up WWE Raw with a victory address, showing off her newly won title belt to the world. But her victory was not well-received by some of the other superstars who came up short, namely Paige. Along with Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose - known collectively as Absolution - she interrupted Becky and stated that she is a poor representation of women's wrestling, and the only person who should truly be the poster-child of the division is Paige. The Man didn't back down from the scathing remarks and told Paige to put her money where her mouth is, but instead of stepping up herself, The Raven-Haired Renegade sent her allies in instead. Somehow, Becky managed to battle back and send Deville and Mandy packing, before it was announced by General Manager, Stone Cold Steve Austin that Paige would indeed take on Becky Lynch tonight on WWE Raw. The new Women's World Champion is in action - tonight!</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/10liHON.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/10liHON.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Tyler Bate def. Bobby Roode to become the new Intercontinental Champion</b></div></p><p> The Glorious One shocked the world in the Men's Royal Rumble Match when he dumped John Cena over the ropes and cut the former 16-time World Champions Rumble stint short. Of course, Roode's ego wouldn't allow him to continue without gloating and he apparently talked about nothing else following the historic event. Tonight, Roode was made to defend his Intercontinental Championship against ongoing rival, Tyler Bate and looked to be once again finding a way out of the match via countout. However, much to Roode's horror, John Cena emerged to cut off Roode's escape path, sending him back to the ring where Tyler Bate was able to take advantage and connect with the Tyler Driver '97 for an upset victory, claiming the title for himself. After the match, Cena embraced the new Champion and raised his hand on the ramp as Roode looked on in a fit of rage. The Glorious One may think twice before running his mouth now, but it may have also only made him more determined to prove his dominance over John Cena.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/4ZNkJuf.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/4ZNkJuf.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Stone Cold informs Daniel Bryan that his next challenger will be found in tonight's main event</b></div></p><p> "The New" Daniel Bryan was able to overcome the Hall of Fame challenge from Kurt Angle at the Royal Rumble, retaining his WWE World Championship via submission. But there's no rest for the wicked in this line of work, and Stone Cold Steve Austin pulled Bryan aside backstage to inform him that his next challenger will be determined in a Fatal 4-Way main event tonight. Randy Orton, The Miz, Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman will go at it for the right to face Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Championship. Bryan was less than pleased, but Austin simply reminded him that that's the bottom line, cos Stone Cold said so.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/hFZ0iU0.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/hFZ0iU0.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Kurt Angle def. Jason Jordan</b></div></p><p> Everyone's heard of "tough love", but this takes the cake. The WWE Universe went wild as Hall of Famer, Kurt Angle made his way to the ring to compete despite his loss at the Royal Rumble to Daniel Bryan. And it just so happens that his opponent was none other than his son, Jason Jordan. Now, every child wants to make their parents proud, but it seems that Jordan has put his own ego before anyone else as of late, and Kurt Angle was about to teach him a lesson in respect. In the ultimate showing of disrespect, however, Jordan slapped his own father across the face before the ring bell, calling him "an embarrassment" to the family. This didn't sit well with The Wrestling Machine who was already ticked off from his loss just 24 hours prior. He unleashed his frustration on his offspring, dominating the entire match and planting him with an Angle Slam. But it didn't end there as Angle applied the Ankle Lock and forced his son into submission, showing the intensity that is synonymous with The Olympic Hero. Angle celebrated his victory with the WWE Universe and it appeared that his WWE World Championship bout wasn't just a one-time deal, and The Wrestling Machine is apparently here to stay.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/PPJHWly.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/PPJHWly.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Heavy Machinery def. WWE Tag Team Champions The Revival in an open challenge</b></div></p><p> Feeling confident, The Revival took to the ring with their WWE Tag Team Championships in hand, looking to gloat about their recent success, claiming to have overcome the conspiracies and finally reached the top where they belong. Scott Dawson declared that they are the greatest tag team in wrestling history, and promised that they would be WWE Tag Team Champions for years and years to come. Dash Wilder followed this up by stating that they would back up their claims tonight by issuing an open challenge to any tag team in the back - in a non-title bout. Of course there was a catch, but nonetheless, this was an opportunity for any team, and it was answered by a brand new duo in Heavy Machinery. And to the surprise of everyone, they defeated the WWE Tag Team Champions in an impressive display, finishing Dash Wilder off with The Compactor and scoring a non-title win over the reigning title holders. With their titles clutched to their chests, The Revival retreated as Otis Dozovic and Tucker Knight celebrated, knowing that they had just made a name for themselves here on WWE Raw. The Revival better watch out.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/ovKIiVX.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/ovKIiVX.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Women's World Champion Becky Lynch def. Paige; Sasha Banks and Bayley make the save</b></div></p><p> Stemming from the top of the show, this match was made by Stone Cold Steve Austin to force Paige to put her money where her mouth is. Unfortunately, she didn't come alone and by her side were Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose to complete the Absolution trio. The Man fought valiantly throughout the match, despite the numbers game coming into play on more than one occasion, Deville and Rose acting as distractions for the Women's World Champion. But when they got too involved, it seems that Becky Lynch had her own backup whether she knew it or not - Sasha Banks and Bayley. The Boss 'n' Hug Connection arrived at ringside and engaged in a brawl with Sonya Deville and Mandy Rose, which attracted Paige's attention in the ring. Lynch capitalised and locked her in the Dis-Arm-Her, forcing her to submit. After the match, Banks and Bayley joined Becky in the ring and watched as Absolution retreated. The Women's World Champion looked at both of her allies and smiled as Michael Cole noted that we have witnessed the reunion of 3-out-of-4 of the Four Horsewomen. The playing field has been levelled and Absolution need to seriously rethink their actions.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/uTBqbbQ.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/uTBqbbQ.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Mike & Maria Kanellis arrive on WWE Raw</b></div></p><p> Everyone enjoys a good love story, but these two may take it a tad too far.

However, it quickly became clear as The Kanellises went on to talk about their relationship over and over and over again, claiming that nobody will ever know the love that they have for each other, calling the WWE Universe "unlovable". Mike Kanellis declared that he and his wife are here to be the most dominant power couple in history, and states that he will make his in-ring debut next week. Maria supports her husband and vows that he will dominate the roster and become the Champion he deserves to be. They closed the moment with an uncomfortably long kiss that had many cringing, and they left hand in hand to boos from the crowd.

Apollo Crews</b></div></p><p> The All Mighty hadn't been quite as mighty as he'd hoped these last few weeks, coming up short on several occasions and entering somewhat of a slump. This week though, he entered the arena with an accomplice in new WWE Raw talent, Lio Rush. The cruiserweight accompanied Bobby Lashley to ringside for his upcoming bout with Apollo Crews, and his presence seemed to light a fire under the former United States Champion. Lashley decimated Crews, finishing him off with a thunderous Dominator for the victory. After the match, Lio Rush grabbed a microphone and declared that Bobby Lashley is the man to beat, and the future of the business. Offering his support to The All Mighty, Rush declares tonight as the start of "a new era within the new era", vowing that Bobby Lashley will dominate the competition and stand tall over everyone in his path. "All hail The All Mighty, Bobby Lashley!" he bellowed to boos from the WWE crowd. Lashley is back on the right track, with Lio Rush at his side.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/JTiewYc.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/JTiewYc.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Ronda Rousey def. Mickie James</b></div></p><p> The intense confrontation between Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler during the Women's Royal Rumble Match had everybody talking, but somebody it didn't quite impress was Alexa Bliss. She and Mickie James made their way to the ring to declare the Women's Royal Rumble an embarrassment, claiming that Becky Lynch didn't deserve to win, and neither did anyone else. Little Miss Bliss quickly tightened her lip as Ronda Rousey made her way to the ring and declared that she wasn't about to let last night's match get the better of her, and vowed to capture the Women's World Championship one way or another. Initially challenging Bliss to a match, she instead nominated her close friend, Mickie James to take her place, much to her reluctance. The Rowdy One was able to submit the former Women's Champion with the Armbar and looked out to Bliss with a warning that she could be next. The Most Dangerous Woman on the Planet is out to make a statement, and it looks like nobody will be able to stand in her way.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/IfyHkYB.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/IfyHkYB.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Roman Reigns def. Braun Strowman, Randy Orton & The Miz to become number one contender to the WWE World Championship</b></div></p><p> In this match created by Stone Cold Steve Austin, four superstars went all in to earn the right to challenge Daniel Bryan for the WWE World Championship next, and they threw all caution to the wind in order to get there. Randy Orton initially took control, hitting an RKO on everyone in sight, but he was unable to secure a victory after wrongly opting to try and pin The Monster Among Men. Strowman soon began to dominate and threw his opponents around the ring like children as he aimed to reach his ultimate goal of becoming the WWE World Champion. However, his three adversaries saw the common threat and momentarily united to send Strowman crashing through a table at ringside with a Shield-esque powerbomb. With the three superstars left to battle it out, The Miz came within seconds of earning the unique opportunity after hitting Reigns with a Skull-Crushing Finale, only for The Viper to break up the count and hit yet another RKO on The A-Lister. The Big Dog saw the opening, however, and struck with a Spear, grounding the former World Champion and picking up the win for himself. Now that he had become the number one contender, Reigns looked to the crowd and gave them an emotional nod as his hand was raised. But his moment of glory was crashed by the arrival of the man himself, "The New" Daniel Bryan. The WWE World Champion confronted his newly appointed challenger and the two glared into each others eyes with an intense atmosphere surrounding them. The date has yet to be set, but it will soon be upon us when The Big Dog and The GOAT go head-to-head in what is sure to be a battle for the ages.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>

Samoa Joe to retain the WCW World Championship</b></div></p><p> What better way to kick off this historic event than with the WCW World Championship bout between two arch-rivals that know each other very well? The Phenomenal One and The Samoan Submission Machine stood toe-to-toe on perhaps the biggest stage that they ever have and went hell for leather all in the name of WCW Nitro's top prize. The familiar foes threw everything they had at the other, Samoa Joe even pulling out a cannonball senton over the ropes to take down Styles. The WCW World Champion battled back and was able to hit not one, but two Phenomenal Forearms on his challenger, only for Joe to somehow kick out. Ultimately, after escaping the Coquina Clutch, AJ Styles was able to deliver his patented Styles Clash to put away his bitter enemy and retain the big gold belt. The Phenomenal One stood tall in front of a jam-packed crowd in victory, sending Samoa Joe back to the locker room in a fit of rage. What a way to start the night!</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/qAFy1Sd.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/qAFy1Sd.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Finn Bálor def. Kevin Owens to become the new ECW World Champion</b></div></p><p> It was time to take this event to the extreme! Finn Bálor and Kevin Owens had been at each other's throats for weeks since the rebirth of ECW, and tonight it came to a head as The Extraordinary Man finally got the opportunity to become the new ECW World Champion. The Prizefighter was unwilling to let it go that easy, vowing to be Champion forever, and it almost looked as if he would be off to a good start to that claim as he sent Bálor crashing through a table with a powerbomb to the outside, taking advantage of the matches ECW rules. Bálor took to the skies as we know he can to rebound and took Owens down with an unbelievable somersault plancha. But after introducing a ladder as a means of revenge from this past week's edition of ECW, it came back to bite Kevin Owens as he ended up on the wrong end of the steel and was dropped to the canvas, allowing Bálor to ascend the rungs and deliver a jaw-dropping Coup de Grace to claim the victory and the ECW World Championship. ECW - welcome to The Bálor Club!</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/HMxauA6.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/HMxauA6.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Becky Lynch wins the Women's Royal Rumble to become the new Women's World Champion</b></div></p><p> The female superstars and extremists had been anticipating this night for weeks, eager to make their big stamp on the industry with a historic victory in this Women's Royal Rumble Match to crown the first Women's World Champion. Thirty women, only one winner, and it all comes down to this. The monumental bout began with entrants number one and two which just so happened to be WWE Raw's Sasha Banks, and WCW Nitro's Charlotte Flair. The two former Women's Champions went head-to-head for the firsty ninety seconds before being joined by an array of women from across all three brands. Throughout the match, fresh faces were revealed, all amazingly signed under Paul Heyman's ECW banner. The likes of Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae and Dakota Kai all made their debuts in the unique contest as members of The Land of Extreme, referring back to Paul Heyman's claims of "having something up his sleeve" these past couple of weeks. But it didn't stop there as Shayna Baszler also revealed herself as an extremist, coming face-to-face with her WWE counterpart - Ronda Rousey. To add some legendary magic to the match, Hall of Famers Trish Stratus and Lita joined the cast, eliminating The IIconics in an unforgettable moment. The final four came down to WWE Raw's Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch, and WCW Nitro's Charlotte Flair and Asuka. The Queen was able to throw over the woman who joined her at the start, The Boss, ending her impressive stint. But moments after dumping Banks over the ropes, Charlotte found herself sent crashing down behind her thanks to The Man. Lynch and Asuka went toe-to-toe for the ultimate victory, and when it came down to it, the fiery redhead was the one who walked away with the prestigious prize, dumping The Empress over the ropes with a Bexploder Suplex. The Man had claimed the first Women's World Championship for herself and WWE Raw, and history had been made in the process.</p><p> </p><p> For the full entry and elimination listings, see the end of the results post.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/O7CsXiB.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/O7CsXiB.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>"The New" Daniel Bryan def. Kurt Angle to retain the WWE World Championship</b></div></p><p> A dream match for any true wrestling fan, Daniel Bryan and Kurt Angle put on a clinic in front of a sold-out crowd. The WWE World Champion continued to frustrate the WWE Universe by disregarding their opinions, and the crowd were solely behind The Olympic Hero. But all other elements aside, this match was nothing short of a classic, and one that will be remember for many years to come. Angle kicked things off by completely tearing apart any doubts that people may have had over his ability to still go with the best, unleashing his signature offence on "The New" Daniel Bryan, throwing him around the ring with suplex after suplex, taking Bryan by surprise. With any sign of ring rust non-existent, Angle looked to put away his adversary quickly with an Ankle Lock, only for Bryan to escape and return the offence, eventually hitting a suicide dive on The Wrestling Machine to regain control. As Bryan became more confident with his advantage, he perhaps lost focus somewhat as the crowd began chanting "Yes!" to the rage of the WWE World Champion. The momentary distraction allowed Angle to battle back and plant him with an Angle Slam, coming within a split second of a three count. Looking to put an end to the bout, Angle once again grabbed the ankle and tried to apply his signature hold, but Bryan's wherewithal allowed him to roll through and apply his own submission - now reverted to being called the LeBelle Lock - and after what seemed like an eternity of struggle, Kurt Angle had alternative but to submit. "The New" Daniel Bryan had come out on top of this dream collision and is still the WWE World Champion. Showing little respect, Bryan gave a kick to Angle's face as he walked past and out of the ring, throwing any honour this match may have had out of the window. Is this the last we have seen of Kurt Angle?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/J1Ohzsn.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/J1Ohzsn.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Triple H returns to make huge announcement concerning the Men's Royal Rumble Match</b></div></p><p> The Game has been absent since the new era began, and many have wondered when he would emerge. Tonight was that night, as he returned in authoritative form. Triple H took to the ring and thanked the fans for making this new era a success thus far, and went on to promise even bigger and better things in the months to come. However, the reason he had returned tonight was not only to show his appreciation on behalf of the company, but to make an announcement regarding the Men's Royal Rumble Match. The Game revealed that not only will tonight's winner be granted a World Championship shot of their choosing, but they will also earn their respective brand a reward. What is that reward, you ask? A brand-exclusive pay-per-view event next month! The superstar who outlasts 29 other men will be able to choose a World Championship to challenge for, as well as earning their brand the right to host its own exclusive pay-per-view. Everything is at stake in this monumental bout, and that match... is up next!</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/MznyKHO.gif" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/MznyKHO.gif"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Drew McIntyre wins the Men's Royal Rumble to earn a future World Championship Match</b></div></p><p> With the added element of a brand-exclusive pay-per-view as announced by Triple H just moments before the opening bell, all of a sudden this already high-reward match was taken to the next level. The number one entrant was already known thanks to WCW Nitro General Manager, Ric Flair as he awarded (or perhaps more like punished) The Velveteen Dream with the dreaded spot, and he was joined at number two by ECW's Rob Van Dam. They were joined by various superstars every ninety seconds with many familiar faces eager to earn their place in the history books. The Big Red Monster, Kane arrived from the depths of hell, leaving carnage in his path, eliminating Apollo Crews, Sami Zayn and Dolph Ziggler in the process. But The Devil's Favourite Demon was soon confronted by another giant in the Big Show. In a clash of the titans, the two went back and forth as the rest of the competitors stayed well out of the way. And as if this Godzilla and King Kong-like collision wasn't enough, here came a third gargantuan - Braun Strowman. The big man shocked the world by eliminating both Kane and the Big Show by himself, standing tall as the lone monster in the match. But he was later greeted by another monster, ECW's monster - Lars Sullivan, who sent The Monster Among Men over and out to the surprise of the crowd. The ongoing rivalry between Bobby Roode and Tyler Bate over the Intercontinental Championship came into play as the pair entered the match, later joined by John Cena who had also played a role in this back and forth battle. Shockingly, The Glorious One dumped John Cena over the ropes, sending the former World Champion back to the locker room without his victory that he desired so much. Meanwhile, on ECW's side, Dean Ambrose entered the match, only to be eliminated by his rival, Jeff Hardy in an act of revenge as The Charismatic Enigma made a beeline for The Lunatic Fringe, sending both Ambrose and himself out to the floor, showing that getting his hands on the man who continues to assault him was more important. Despite an incredible showing from number one, The Velveteen Dream was sent over the ropes by fellow WCW Nitro superstar, Seth Rollins with a superkick, crushing The Dream's own dreams of leaving WCW Nitro for "greener pastures". What will he have to say come this week on Nitro? The final four came down to WCW Nitro's Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre, WWE Raw's Roman Reigns and ECW's Lars Sullivan. Showing their intelligence, Rollins, McIntyre and Reigns united to take out The Freak, eliminating Sullivan from the match. This alliance was short-lived as McIntyre tossed The Architect over and out, leaving himself and The Big Dog as the final two. After a true battle to be the last man standing, the fight ended up on the ring apron and as both men teetered on the edge, The Sinister Scot was the one to drop back into the ring and deliver a Claymore kick, sending Reigns to the floor and securing the victory! As a result, WCW Nitro will receive its own brand-exclusive pay-per-view next month, but most importantly, Drew McIntyre holds the right to challenge a World Champion of his choosing. The Scot Terminator stands at the top of the mountain as the last man standing, and the question is now - who will he choose to face for their prestigious World Championship?</p><p> </p><p> For the full entry and elimination listings, see the end of the results post.</div></p><p> </p><p> <div style="margin:auto;

Rob Van Dam</b></div></p><p> It was Finn Bálor who came out on top last week to become the number one contender for the ECW World Championship, leaving Rob Van Dam and Sami Zayn behind. While both extremists will enter the Royal Rumble Match, they still had unfinished business with each other and kicked off this week's edition of ECW. The former World Champion, RVD took the fight to The Underdog of the Underground in a hard-hitting bout, but using his wits, Zayn was able to avoid a Five-Star Frog Splash, and followed it up by delivering a low blow to The Whole F'n Show before shoving him into the corner and connecting with a Helluva Kick for the victory. Scoring the win, Zayn not only gained some momentum for himself heading into the Men's Royal Rumble Match, but perhaps for his best friend, Kevin Owens as well as he goes on to defend the ECW World Championship against Finn Bálor this Sunday. But tonight, Owens and Bálor will come face-to-face in an extreme confrontation.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/66nrbrq.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/66nrbrq.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Rusev def. Zack Ryder</b></div></p><p> The Bulgarian Brute and his Rusev Day entourage made their way to the ring this week as he declared his entry into the Men's Royal Rumble Match. After Aiden English's show of support for his ally, the trio were interrupted by the arrival of Zack Ryder who looked to bring Rusev Day to an end and take his place in the match instead. An impromptu bout began, and it seemed that Ryder's efforts were for nought as Rusev destroyed his adversary, taking The Long Island Iced-Z down with a Machka Kick, and finished him off with The Accolade. Rusev, Aiden English and Lana stood tall in the center of the ring as they led a chant of "Rusev Day", one that we could very well be hearing this Sunday.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/obDzXXQ.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/obDzXXQ.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Bludgeon Brothers def. The Dudley Boyz to become the ECW Tag Team Champions</b></div></p><p> The Dudley Boyz shocked the world when they returned to ECW last week, and Paul Heyman topped the moment off by announcing that they would be the team to face The Bludgeon Brothers to crown the first ECW Tag Team Champions. No team had been able to conquer the destructive force of Harper and Rowan, and if anyone could do it, it was going to be The Dudleyz. However, even the legendary team could not overcome the brutal beating of these two barbarian extremists. The Bludgeons were able to beat Bubba and D-Von at their own game, simultaneously putting them through tables with Harper scoring the pinfall on D-Von. The undefeated duo have reached the top of the mountain, capturing the ECW Tag team Championships, even defeating the Hall of Fame duo in the process. The question appears to have been answered - nobody can stop The Bludgeon Brothers.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/Eavaoer.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/Eavaoer.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>The Riott Squad attack Natalya and Dana Brooke</b></div></p><p> While they were tag team partners last week, Natalya and Dana Brooke were scheduled to go head-to-head with the Women's Royal Rumble just around the corner. However, before the two close friends could even begin their bout, they were attacked from out of nowhere by The Riott Squad. The devastating trio unleashed a heinous attack on the two extremists who defeated them in tag team action last week, sending a message to everyone in the Women's Royal Rumble. Ruby Riott, Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan stood tall over Natalya on the outside looking out into the crowd with grins on their faces.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/osnaCSQ.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/osnaCSQ.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Lars Sullivan def. Goldust</b></div></p><p> Drew Gulak's own personal monster, Lars Sullivan once again took to the ring to show how destructive he can be. This week, The Freak dismantled the iconic Goldust, beating him with a Singapore cane throughout the match and finally finishing him off with a Freak Accident. Gulak took to the microphone to announce his monster's entry into the Royal Rumble Match, and warned anyone who would step in his way to being the last man standing. But one man who wasn't intimidated by The Freak was Rhyno. The Man Beast hit the ring and came face-to-face with Sullivan in an intense stare down that had the ECW crowd going wild. Will these two cross paths in the Men's Royal Rumble Match?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/lzsCcDB.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/lzsCcDB.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Johnny Gargano def. Jeff Hardy</b></div></p><p> The Charasmatic Enigma made his return to ECW last week after suffering a minor injury at the hands of Dean Ambrose. Hardy made a beeline for The Lunatic Fringe and got a measure of revenge, taking to the skies. Jeff Hardy returned to in-ring competition this week just days before the Royal Rumble, taking on Johnny Gargano in a hard fought battle. Johnny Wrestling refused to go down as always, but when he was hit with a Twist of Fate, it looked to be all over for the young extremist. However, lurking in the shadows was Dean Ambrose who came to the ring and dropped Jeff Hardy with a Dirty Deeds, allowing Gargano to pick up the victory. The Lunatic Fringe stood over Hardy with a psychotic stare, squatting down next to him and telling him he would be dealt with at the Royal Rumble.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/yIF9I5R.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/yIF9I5R.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Bray Wyatt def. Pete Dunne</b></div></p><p> There hasn't been much success for The Bruiserweight since joining ECW, despite continuing to put on incredible displays against various opponents. Tonight unfortunately continued his streak of bad luck as he came into contact with The Eater of Worlds, Bray Wyatt. The Reaper made his arrival in The Land of Extreme just two weeks ago and in the process sent a bone-chilling message to the entire locker room. Bray Wyatt used Pete Dunne as his sacrificial lamb this week, putting the British brawler away with a Sister Abigail to end the match. He began to shout after the bell, informing everyone that he would bring "sweet release" to the other 29 men in the Royal Rumble Match, vowing to take them to the promise land. Wyatt seems more deranged and deluded than ever, and it doesn't bode well for the rest of the roster.</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/FWpKI0K.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/FWpKI0K.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Eric Young def. Aleister Black in a First Blood Match</b></div></p><p> The ongoing rivalry between Eric Young's SAnitY and Aleister Black had reached the ultimate boiling point, and after a tag team bout last week, this match was agreed between the two extremists as a First Blood Match. This stipulation couldn't be more barbaric with the winner being the one to bust their opponent open. Initially, Killian Dain and Alexander Wolfe were absent from ringside, Young and Black wanting this to be between the two of them. Carnage followed and all hell had broke loose with weapons and fists flying everywhere. SAnitY eventually arrived at ringside to act as distraction to Black, jumping onto the ring apron only for The Dutch Destroyer to take both of them down with a double dropkick. But Young had found an opening and grabbed a baseball bat from ringside which had been dropped by Killian Dain, and used it to crack open the skull of his adversary, winning the match. SAnitY stood over the bloodied Black in victory, having finally defeated the thorn in their side. Can Aleister Black bounce back from this in the Royal Rumble Match, or has he been truly beaten once and for all?</div></p><p> </p><p> <img src="<a href="https://i.imgur.com/SMqPkui.png" rel="external nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/SMqPkui.png"><div</a> style="margin:auto; width:650px; background-color:#212121; padding:25px; color:#ffffff; text-align:justify;margin-top:-15px;"><div style="text-align:justify; font:22px Roboto;"><b>Finn Bálor and Kevin Owens' confrontation goes to the extreme</b></div></p><p> This Sunday, Finn Bálor will challenge Kevin Owens for the ECW World Championship. Tonight, the pair came face-to-face, man-to-man without anyone else in their corners, for a confrontation to set the stage. The Prizefighter was quick to downplay Bálor's ability, calling him a "glorified stuntman" and not worthy of being ECW World Champion. But The Extraordinary Man begged to differ, stating that he is destined to become World Champion, and he believes this Sunday will be his moment. After a short exchange of words, things soon became physical as Owens attack Bálor from out of nowhere, looking to get the upper hand heading into their title match. But the tables turned and Bálor was able to take control, eventually leading to the fight rumbling up the aisle towards the entrance curtain where Finn Bálor grabbed a ladder that had been used to construct tonight's stage. Setting it up, he climbed and lunged himself into the air onto an unsuspecting Kevin Owens. "Holy shit!" chants echoed through the arena as both men lay motionless on the concrete floor, officials rushing out to the aid of the extremists. The sound of "ECW!" chants closed out the show as Bálor slowly stood on his feet with the help of two officials, raising his hand to the delight of the hardcore faithful.</div></div></p><p> </p><p> <link href='<a href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'" rel="external nofollow">https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,900,700'</a> rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'></p>
