</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Steve Corino is out to open to this Night of Champions, and lays down a challenge to anyone in the back for his WCW Television Championship. He’s shocked whenever it’s answered by none other than his partner Crowbar! Corino tries to pull him aside and talk, but Crowbar is raring to go and the two eventually go to their respective corners as the bell rings.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The two lock-up and exchange holds in the early going, but Crowbar begins to wrestle more aggressively with hard shots, so Corino returns the favour. In the end, Corino scouts a spinning wheel kick and hits the Old School Expulsion for the victory. The two shake hands afterwards, though Crowbar looks a little disappointed to have come up short.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The ring is set up with a table and contracts, as Arn Anderson introduces the WCW World Heavyweight Champion and his Top Contender for Starrcade. Giant stares Booker down with a confident glare, saying nothing, until Booker T cuts a fiery promo on his opponent: “You’re big, you’re bad — I know that, dog. But you’re a cocky son of a bitch too, and you’re going to choke, like you almost did with Kanyon. Now can you dig that, sucka?”</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Giant rolls his eyes and simply reaches over the table with his huge hands, grabbing and throttling Booker, before throwing him from side to side like a ragdoll. As Arn flees the ring, Booker struggles in the Giant’s chokehold. But with ease Giant lifts him high and plants the champion through the table! He leans down amongst the wreckage, grabs the contract and a pen, then signs his name on the dotted line and throws it down on Booker’s prone body. He strides off to the back, his point made.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> An exhibition defence for the Dragons, who seem to be a step ahead of their opponents at all times, knocking them loopy with stiff kicks and spectacular dives. Skipper cuts off Tajiri long enough to get the crowd into a hot tag to Kaz Hayashi, who runs wild and hits the Hayashi Cutter on Karagias to win.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The Jung Dragons are celebrating their victory when the Radicalz leap the guard-rail and sneak into the ring, assailing the Trios Champions! Malenko and Saturn annihilate Hayashi with Total Elimination, before Chavo and Eddy take out Yang and Tajiri with double Gory Bombs! The Radicalz’ intent becomes clear whenever Eddy Guerrero grabs one of the WCW Trios Championship belts, shining it up and peering at his reflection in it. “That’s a pretty title, esse.” Mike Tenay notes that Eddy shouldn’t get overconfident — he still has to defend the WCW United States Championship in tonight’s main-event!</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Billy Kidman is in the ring pacing back and forth as Shannon Moore’s 3 Count theme plays but his opponent for tonight is not forthcoming. The music stops as James Mitchell comes out on the ramp, and warns Kidman: “This is not the man you’ve faced before, Billy. Full of frustration and rejection… I harnessed that emotion, I’ve unleashed his aggression. Meet the newest member of my Family… Kid Vicious!” The man once known as Shannon Moore emerges to a generic metal theme, now sporting a spiky mohawk, a couple of new tattoos and an attitude completely different from the boy-band member we knew.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The newly-dubbed Kid Vicious has Kidman on the run in the beginning, with a barrage of hard-shots. He nails the champion with a hurricanrana then bends down and licks Kidman’s face with a pierced tongue, drawing the gasps of the crowd. A disgusted Kidman begins to rally as the audience cheer him on, building momentum with a succession of arm-drags before hitting Vicious with the Kid Krusher! How ironic. Kidman goes up top for the Shooting Star Express to add an exclamation point, but is pushed off by Christopher Daniels, who must have been hiding beneath the ring!</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> As Daniels and Vicious begin putting the boots to Kidman, James Mitchell comes out on stage again, this time with the Sindicate. He sics the big men on the Cruiserweight champion, and they deliver a huge double military-press to Kidman! Mitchell grabs the microphone and says: “This is my Family… we fight together, we bleed together. And there’s always room… for one more!” He cackles madly.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Storm cuts off Clark early by wrestling rings around him and trapping him in an leg-lock — Bobby Heenan notes on commentary that Storm defeated both members of KroniK in the Top Contender’s Tournament, and seems to have their number. Clark begins to feel the adrenaline and escapes the hold to tag in Adams, who clears house on both men. The action spills outside with all four men brawling — as KroniK beat Team Canada down to a pulp, they don’t notice the referee’s count of ten! Both teams are counted out, though KroniK has clearly won the fight outside.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

O’Haire and Palumbo stride out and get in KroniK’s faces, as the two teams trash talk. Palumbo tries to grab Adams’ title belt, which causes a brawl to break out! Security swarm the entrance-ramp to pull both teams apart.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Mike Tenay notes that Guerrero’s three contenders performed well in the Top Contender’s Tournament, and have been rewarded with this opportunity. “What about… err, Norman Smiley?” Heenan asks, as Tenay balks at the notion. The four are evenly-pitted in the opening stretch, but Morrus gains an advantage as he clotheslines all three of his opponents to the outside and screams: “M… I… A!” The crowd go mild.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

As Raven and Kanyon begin to brawl outside, Guerrero slinks back into the ring and tries to steal a win with a series of cradles on Morrus. He locks in a tight small package, which is only broken up when Kanyon rushes in for the save! Raven rolls back into the ring and tries to blindside Kanyon, but he dodges and instead takes out Guerrero! Morrus gives Raven a stiff spinebuster, but turns around into a Flatliner!

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The crowd are going nuts as Kanyon celebrates with the WCW United States Championship, as Tenay notes: “Nobody fought harder in the Top Contender Tournament than Kanyon — he deserves this win, he deserves this moment.” Guerrero is on the outside almost in tears of rage as he shakes his head and walks to the back. "That is surely what Eddy gets for taking his eye of the US title and focusing on the Trios titles earlier tonight! It's clear he wasn't focused," Tenay adds.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Kanyon raises his title high as the commentators sign off for the night — but is blasted from behind by a heel kick from Rob Van Dam! “What the hell?! That stuck-up, preening bast— forgive my language!” Tenay exclaims. RVD begins grinning wickedly as he ruins Kanyon’s fun, putting the boots to him and then dropping the United States Championship on his chest.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

One has to wonder what the locker-room atmosphere is like backstage, and how prevalent drug use may be becoming. WCW management is attempting to show that they won’t tolerate this, by threatening mandatory rehab and suspensions for anyone else who fails a drug test, under any circumstances.</div><br /></li><li><div style="margin-left:25px;"> WCW is said to be in talks with New Japan Pro Wrestling and Asistencia Asesoría y Administración regarding a new concept for January. WCW used to maintain lucrative working agreements with both NJPW and AAA which involved talent trades and joint shows, but these relationships were allowed to deteriorate over the years.</div><br /></li><li><div style="margin-left:25px;"> This can’t be a coincidence given the last news item, but WCW is due to tour both Japan and Mexico in the fortnight following Starrcade, including television tapings. Local stars from both regions will no doubt help drive ticket sales, given that in many markets, WCW is still viewed as second-rate compared to the WWF. For those asking about possible tours in the UK, Europe and Australia, nothing has been announced thus far.</div><br /></li><li><div style="margin-left:25px;"> We’re being told that the big former WCW star due to wrestle at Starrcade will return to television as soon as next week’s WCW Saturday Night, to allow ample build for the match.</div><br /></li><li><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Tragic news on the developmental front: Russ Haas of the Haas Brothers tag-team in HWA has suffered a second heart-attack and passed away. He had been on a limited schedule after returning to the ring following the first heart-attack in October. Understandably, his brother Charlie Haas is said to be devastated and considering putting his wrestling career on hold for the time being.</div><br /></li></ul><p></div></p><p> </p><p> Next time on Saturday Night...</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="41628" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><strong>WCW Saturday Night - Week 2, December 2001</strong><p> </p><p> Diamond Dallas Page vs Rob Van Dam</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Natural Born Thrillers (Sean O'Haire & Chuck Palumbo), Billy Kidman & The Real D'Lo vs Christopher Daniels, Kid Vicious & The Sindicate (Johnny the Bull & Reno)</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> <strong>WCW Television Championship</strong></p><p><strong> </strong>Steve Corino © vs Perry Saturn</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Kaz Hayashi vs Chavo Guerrero Jr.</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> <strong>BONUS</strong></p><p><strong> </strong>Guess the big former WCW star returning this week:</p></div></blockquote>

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Eddy, Saturn and Malenko are at ringside in Chavo’s corner, while Yang and Tajiri are out in support of Hayashi. Kaz dominates early with dropkicks, headscissors and arm-drags, but as Eddy distracts Nick Patrick by jumping onto the apron, Chavo takes over with a low-blow. Tajiri and Yang get in the face of the Radicalz, and a brawl breaks out at ringside — with the referee’s attention elsewhere again, Chavo hits Hayashi with multiple additional low-blows, aiming to reduce his groin to dust and debris. Kaz is simply too wracked with pain to resist going up for the Gory Bomb, as the referee returns his focus to the match long enough to count three.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> We go backstage, where Television Champion Steve Corino and Crowbar are in the middle of a heated argument. “I want -one- more shot, just one more,” Crowbar demands, before Corino blows him off: “You fought me last week for the title, you lost. I’ve got Saturn tonight — you’ll have to get back in line. I thought we were partners anyway — friends!” Crowbar stares a hole in Corino, then storms out of the locker-room without a word.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> We see a training montage of Giant preparing for his Starrcade main-event against Booker T. A ring has been set up in a spacious warehouse, and we see him tossing around nameless ham and eggers for sport — even taking on six at once! His voiceover promises: “I’m unbeatable, I’m unbreakable. I’m the irresistible force -and- the immovable object. I am the Giant, and at Starrcade, I take what’s mine at long last — the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.” </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Insider fans might notice that the jobbers in the ring with Giant include developmental talents, such as an unmasked Dean Roll (Shark Boy), Chad Collyer, Rico Constantino, Lance Cade, BJ Whitmer and Chris Harris.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Corino looks a bit distracted in the early stages of the match, and Mike Tenay wonders whether the argument with tag-partner Crowbar is affecting his focus. Saturn begins wearing down the Television Champion with abdominal stretches and backbreakers, clearly priming him for the Rings of Saturn. Corino is able to mount a comeback as the fans cheer him on however, and nails the Old School Expulsion. 1… 2… Charles Robinson is dragged from the ring and knocked out cold by Crowbar!</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Corino looks shocked at this seeming act of betrayal, getting into a pushing contest with Crowbar on the outside. Crowbar snaps and hits Corino with the Mindbender, before rolling him back into the ring and throwing the referee in for good measure. Saturn hits the Three-Handled Moss-Covered Family Gradunza as Robinson revives and counts three! Crowbar simply walks to the back, as Mike Tenay wonders what’s come over him so suddenly.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Lance Storm and Mike Awesome are in the centre of the ring, as Storm waves a clipboard around and begins to lecture the audience. “If I can be serious for a minute, last week on Saturday Night, the WCW World Tag Team Champions KroniK did not -beat- us, indeed they cannot beat us. The record book shows a draw, and we deserve restitution. I spoke to Mr. Arn Anderson earlier about securing a fair rematch at Starrcade, but he informed me that the Natural Born Thrillers are already booked to face KroniK. This is a travesty of justice, and I am lodging a formal protest against Mr. Anderson’s lack of fairness and blatant anti-Canadian bias.” </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

He holds the clipboard high, continuing: “Which is why I have drafted a petition demanding our rightful match against KroniK. If I secure enough signatures, not even Mr. Anderson can—“ The camera cuts backstage mid-speech to a long black limousine, as Mike Tenay wonders: “Rumours have been circulating for weeks that a huge former WCW star was due to make a return for Starrcade. Is this— it is!” The door opens and none other than Ric Flair steps out, the crowd erupting in excitement. </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="text-align:center;"><span>http://tinyurl.com/smwcwflair</span></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

He lets out a trademark “WOOOO!” as he begins strutting his way backstage, then makes his way to the ring. Team Canada are still there, petition in hand — Storm in particular looking furious. Flair grabs a microphone and advises: “You’ve spoke long enough, son. Your time is up, now the Nature Boy has something to say!” Team Canada begin trudging backstage angrily, as Flair basks in the audience’s cheers, who give him a hero’s reception. </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

“You’re probably wondering why I’m here — maybe you’re even wondering why I wasn’t back sooner. Just know that it wouldn’t be Starrcade without that limousine-ridin’, jet-flyin’, kiss-stealin’, wheelin’-dealin’ son of a gun… the dirtiest player in the game, -the Man-! I’m talking’ about the Nature Boy Ric Flair! Wooo! I’m back, baby — and God, it feels good. Wooo!”</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> As D’Lo locks up with Vicious in the early-going, we cut to a split-screen inset promo of KroniK yelling incoherently at the Natural Born Thrillers: “STARRCADE WRES-TITLE TAG ONE-ON-ONE… NO, TWO-ON-TWO. YEAH.” O’Haire tags in and begins decimating the whole of the opposing team, as Palumbo watches on from the apron. Kidman tags in next and begins nailing Daniels with hurricanranas before setting up for the Kid Krusher — Daniels wriggles out and cradles Kidman for the win! Daniels has pinned the Cruiserweight Champion!</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Crowbar comes striding out to ringside with Daffney, as Tenay wonders what he’s doing here of all places. He gets in James Mitchell’s face and stares him down, before giving him a huge hug, as Mitchell pats his back in a fatherly manner. Daffney jumps up and down in excitement. Has the Mitchell Family expanded yet again?</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Gene Okerlund is backstage with Booker T, asking him for his comments on Giant beating him down so easily at last week’s contract signing. “I’ll admit, he beat me bad,” Booker concedes. “But I’m still standing, I’m still here, man. At Starrcade, Giant can lay the biggest whoopin’ he wants on Booker T. It doesn’t matter — I can take an ass-kicking, but I can also give one. You know that saying: the bigger they are, the harder they fall? Giant, you’re going to fall hard at Starrcade when I knock you on that oversized ass, sucka.”</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> RVD gets an early advantage, as Bobby Heenan asks on commentary if DDP has lost a couple of steps: “He couldn’t beat Guerrero, he couldn’t beat Raven, you think he’s going to beat Van Dam? Face it Tenay, this guy’s washed up.” Tenay disagrees, and is vindicated as Page begins to rally and hit RVD with the discus clothesline and gutwrench powerbomb. Van Dam rolls outside to buy some time, but DDP takes the fight to him. Page throws RVD into the guardrail, but is suddenly blindsided as Raven comes from the crowd and hits him hard with a steel chair! The referee calls for the DQ.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Raven signals for the Evenflow DDT on the chair, but is forced to flee as WCW United States Champion Kanyon rushes to ringside to help his friend DDP. He corners Van Dam, who tries to shrug and beg off, but Kanyon begins rocking him with lefts and rights! He gets a measure of revenge for last week by hitting the Flatliner to RVD on the outside, and helps DDP to his feet as the show goes off the air.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Due to the temperamental nature of internet pay-per-view, WCW’s division to do this is highly questionable — the WWF’s attempts to host their PPVs on their website has been fraught with problems, and cost them dearly with refunds after the No Mercy 2001 webcast failed.</div><br /></li><li><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The pre-show is largely going to be a single long match — a Royal Rumble-style gauntlet battle-royal featuring everybody left off the main card. The prize will be a WCW Television Championship match on the main PPV card. Due to the title change last week, that will be the winner versus Perry Saturn.</div><br /></li><li><div style="margin-left:25px;"> With Shannon Moore’s repackaging as Kid Vicious and Crowbar joining the Mitchell Family stable, we’re being told that the long-term plan is to team them together. Both are technically Cruiserweights, though Crowbar is right on the weight limit and can often pass easily as a heavyweight due to his build.</div><br /></li><li><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Speaking of weight-limits, we can confirm that Eddy Guerrero and Dean Malenko can in fact challenge for the WCW Cruiserweight Trios Championship. Though it wouldn't be the first time that weights were fudged for storyline reasons, both men have made the cut of 225lb despite being primarily booked in the heavyweight divisions.</div><br /></li></ul><p></div></p><p> </p><p> Next time on WCW Saturday Night:</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="41628" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><strong>WCW Saturday Night - Week 3, December 2001</strong><p> </p><p> Booker T vs Mike Awesome</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Diamond Dallas Page, Kanyon & Norman Smiley vs The Dynasty (Shawn Stasiak, David Flair & Randy Orton)</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Natural Born Thrillers (Sean O'Haire & Chuck Palumbo) & KroniK (Brian Adams & Bryan Clark) vs Double Trouble (Mark Jindrak & Mike Sanders), Elix Skipper & Romeo</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Billy Kidman & Steve Corino vs Christopher Daniels & Crowbar</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> <strong>WCW Television Championship</strong></p><p><strong> </strong>Perry Saturn © vs Yoshihiro Tajiri</p><p> Comments:</p></div></blockquote>

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The ringside area is crowded yet again, with Eddy Guerrero, Chavo Guerrero Jr. and Dean Malenko in Saturn’s corner, and Kaz Hayashi and Yang seconding Tajiri. Saturn is caught by Tajiri’s stiff, spectacular offense, eating a handspring elbow and getting caught in the ropes with a painful-looking Tarantula. The Radicalz pace back and forth restlessly as they encourage Saturn, who is able to lock in the Rings of Saturn. Tajiri tries crawling on his belly towards the ropes, but he can barely move and as Saturn cranks the hold in deeper, he’s forced to submit.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Saturn keeps the Rings locked in, wrenching the punishment onto Tajiri. Hayashi and Yang hit the ring to break the hold, but are caught by Eddy, Chavo and Malenko who slide in too. Both sides brawl until the Radicalz take a spill to the outside with clotheslines, and Saturn is forced to break the hold, getting stomped on but just managing to slither out of the ring and grab the Television title as he flees to the back. The Jung Dragons stand tall tonight, but Tajiri is holding his ribs weakly.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> James Mitchell is backstage with his Family — Christopher Daniels, the Sindicate, Kid Vicious, and now Crowbar and Daffney. “The Family grows, and believe me, there’s always room for one more,” he warns. “I will lead my brothers and sisters to greatness and salvation — at Starrcade, the Fallen Angel will become gilded once again.” Daniels nods, and adds: “Billy Kidman, enjoy the next eight days as Cruiserweight Champion. Because at Starrcade, it’ll be all over — the Fallen Angel will rise.”</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The Family walk off, leaving just Crowbar and Daffney alone, who address the camera. “Ooh Stevie, no hard feelings, hmm?” Daffney shrieks, before Crowbar grunts: “I got nowhere teaming with you, I wasted months — and for what? The Father James Mitchell is going to lead me to the promised land, and you, Steve Corino? You wouldn’t give me another shot at your precious Television title, so I made sure you lost it to -someone-. Maybe Saturn will give me a shot, when I’m done with you.” He gives a twisted smirk, beginning to laugh madly to himself.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> James Mitchell, the Sindicate and Kid Vicious are ringside. Corino and Crowbar start the match with a staredown, and both begin offloading on each other with punches — these former partners now turned rivals. Corino gets the advantage, and Crowbar retreats to tag in Daniels — the fresh Fallen Angel begins to dissect the Television champion with chin-locks and snapmares. Kidman is going nuts on the apron as he begs for a hot tag, the crowd clapping in time to show their support — Corino gets to him just in time and Kidman runs wild, taking out both Daniels and Crowbar. He goes up top for the Shooting Star Press on Daniels, who manages to get the knees up just in time. Kidman staggers back holding his chest, and falls prey to the Angel’s Wings. Daniels has pinned the Cruiserweight Champion twice in two weeks!</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The four men lay him and the prone Kidman laying with hard shots, though Corino goes down swinging. Daniels and Mitchell just watch from the ring, sick grins on both of their faces.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Lance Storm is backstage canvassing support for Team Canada’s World Tag Team title rematch, holding his clipboard and asking staff members if they’d sign his petition — a couple oblige after he insists, others quickly move along. He walks over to a man in a suit with his back turned, and when Storm places a hand on his shoulder, he turns around to reveal that it’s Ric Flair! He gives Storm a huge cheesy smile.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Storm grits his teeth and asks begrudgingly: “If I can be serious for a minute, would you like to sign the petition granting Team Canada their rightful—“ Flair interrupts by woooing right in Storm’s face, and asking: “Do you think I won twenty-one World Championships by wandering around the back begging people to sign petitions?” Storm begins to reply, but Flair interjects: “NO!”</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

“I went out there, sixty minutes every night, and bled, sweat and cried in a twenty-by-twenty ring, baby. Partied every night, kissed the girls and made ‘em cry! Because to be the man, you gotta beat the man — and I -am- the man, brother!

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Jindrak starts things off with Adams, the two exchanging tests of strength. Things eventually break down into a huge melee with all eight men, with Jindrak taking a tumble to the outside and Sanders getting bodyslammed on top of him. Double Trouble decide to beat a retreat, leaving Skipper and Romeo against four aggressive men. Romeo falls prey to KroniK’s double chokeslam and gets pinned.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> As KroniK and the Natural Born Thrillers get their hands raised by referee Billy Silverman, they soon turn on each other and begin yelling about Starrcade. KroniK take out their frustrations with another double chokeslam on Romeo, before the Thrillers up the ante with Palumbo superkicking Skipper and O’Haire polishing him off with the Widowmaker. The two teams continue to trash-talk as we go to commercials.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> DDP and Kanyon are backstage discussing plans for their match with the Dynasty, with Norman Smiley in the background shadow-boxing comically. Page mentions that they should be wary of Raven interfering. “Van Dam too,” Kanyon adds. Mike Tenay adds on commentary that Arn Anderson has booked Page vs Raven and Kanyon defending the United States Championship against RVD at Starrcade.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Stacy Keibler is at ringside, and she manages to distract Norman Smiley by stretching her lengthy legs and winking suggestively — the wide-eyed Smiley is blindsided by Orton, who begins wearing him down. Smiley eventually escapes from a headlock to tag in DDP, who runs wild and takes out all three of his opponents. Page then tags Kanyon, who continues the beating and tosses Stasiak to the outside. Kanyon hits the Flatliner on David Flair as DDP nails Orton with a Diamond Cutter, and Charles Robinson counts the pin as Kanyon covers Flair.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> As earlier predicted, Raven and Van Dam pounce on Page and Kanyon after sneaking through the crowd. Norman Smiley jumps in to defend his partners and is beaten to a pulp, with Van Dam thrust-kicking him and Raven planting him with an Evenflow DDT. Smiley’s sacrifice gives Page and Kanyon enough time to recover, and they clear Raven and RVD from the ring with tandem clotheslines, before posing and standing tall.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Match Report:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Awesome is out with Storm, who begins asking for ringside fans to sign his petition. Booker takes the fight to Awesome early, flooring him with chops and a sidewalk slam. Awesome recovers and begins grinding down on Booker with hard elbows to the head and running powerslams. Booker eventually makes a comeback and makes an example out of Awesome, hitting him with a Book End, following up with the Harlem Hangover from the top rope, and then finishing him off with the Axe Kick. A dominant performance for the World Heavyweight Champion heading into Starrcade.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Description:</strong></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Lance Storm enters the ring as Booker is celebrating, asking him to sign the petition. “Tell me you didn’t just say that,” he snaps at Storm, but it’s a ruse, as Awesome recovers and attacks Booker from behind! Team Canada put the boots to Booker, but the crowd roar as Ric Flair jogs down to ringside in his suit, and begins laying out Storm and Awesome with right hands! Flair removes his suit-jacket and throws it to the ground, doing an elbow drop on the jacket as he goes nuts! Storm and Awesome flee to the back, Storm making sure to grab the clipboard as he goes.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">
