<p><strong>Man that was another great ppv. Love how you are building the upcoming changes in the DA. Also the whole York Foundation and the after win promo was great. Terry Taylor would have been a very good NWA Champion around this time. A step behind the big boys but a credible champion, certainly better than poor Al Madril </strong></p><p> </p><p>

<p><em>Excellent show as always, all went pretty much the way I expected other than the Bret/Steiner match, which I'm surprised that one picked up such a low grade....ironically it was perhaps three of the biggest stars of the mid 90's in Hart, Michaels and Nash that were in three of the lowest rated matches....what New Generation? </em><img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

I'm glad Windham/Dustin finally got the gold, I was half convinced there was a turn coming but this was certainly the right time to make the switch, win all four men looking fantastic in the process....speaking of Fantastic, that York Foundation is looking pretty special about now, it's amazing what a bit of gold can do. I really like the thought of the Foundation holding the NWA titles to ransom....to hell with the travelling champion, you want the gold then you can come to me....good stuff.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

Nice to see the dissension with Arn continuing ahead of a (hopefull) split from the DA, it's difficult to see who is ever going to manage to topple Rude right now, but Arn must have a chance of at least a one shot programme.</em></p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Ric Flair vs. <strong>Steve Austin</strong> © – WCW United States Title</p><p>

<em>I don't see Austin dropping immediately, plus Flair losing the chance to become the top champion one night only to win the secondary title a few nights later just doesn't sit well with me, it's almost like confirming that he is not at Rudes level anymore......won't be clean though, Alliance cost</em></p><p> </p><p>

Beat The Champ:<strong> Ron Simmons</strong> vs. Vinnie Vegas © – WCW Television Title</p><p>

<em>Tough pick, but lets go with experience</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Bret Hart</strong> vs. The Diamond Studd</p><p>

<em>Although I'm second guessing that Simmons pick now, don't see the Diamond Mine losing twice....Bret needs a "big" win after a few high profile losses (to Anderson and Steiner) to really cement himself....Studd isn't a "big" win, but it's not a match he can afford to be losing either</em></p><p> </p><p>

Chris Jericho vs.<strong> Scott Steiner</strong></p><p>

<em>Sorry Chris, if the Hitman couldn't do it then you have no chance</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Sting</strong> vs. Brad Armstrong</p><p>

<em>Where does Sting go from here? Well he beats Armstrong for a start, then who knows....maybe he goes on to "beat the champ" and mows through the challengers to get his momentum and confidence back, before cashing in for another shot at Rude/Austin</em></p><p> </p><p>

Marcus Bagwell vs. <strong>Shawn Michaels</strong></p><p>

<em>Well, Shawn finally proved that he can beat the veteran....the rookie shouldn't be much of a problem</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Blanco & Konnan</strong> vs. The Fabulous Malenkos</p><p>

<em>Meh, I mean I guess.....there are only two elements in this diary that I'm not invested in.....and it's these two teams right here </em><img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

</p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">Ric Flair and Steve Austin were deep into their match, with Austin going after Flair’s bad leg and Flair fighting a defensive and opportunistic style designed to minimise damage suffered – and capitalise on each one of his younger opponent’s overenthusiastic attempts to put Flair down.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

...Rick Rude walked down the aisle as Austin tossed Flair through the ropes to the outside. Austin looked ready to pursue the Nature Boy, but Rude barely broke stride as he kicked Flair in the head, knocking him down and causing the referee to call for the bell. Rude continued his assault, hurling Flair into the crowd barrier before following up with a powerslam on the arena floor. With Flair down, Rude climbed into the ring and demanded a microphone, his gaze fixed on Austin as the United States champion stared at him questioningly.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Nothing against you, and I’ll make it up to you for the money you lost by not beating Flair in the middle of the ring.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Austin looked a little calmer, but still not wholly happy.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

It’s been a year – a </div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><em>year</em></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> – that I’ve been undefeated here in WCW. Eight months as the World champion. I’ve beaten Koloff, Sting, Flair, Steamboat, Rhodes... The list goes on. And two nights’ ago I beat Flair, clean as you like, in the middle of the ring. And it cost me, yeah...</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Jesse Ventura walked down the aisle, pausing to check on Flair as he was tended to by some referees.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

You think that I’m going to just hand a title shot to Ric Flair – or Steve Austin, for that matter?</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

You won a great match two nights ago, no question, but you won it at the death – and that was incredible, one of the matches of the year... but it wasn’t easy for you.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

I </div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><em>loved</em></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> what Sting did with the United States title, putting it on the line every week. We saw some great matches, and that’s given me an idea or two.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

And that someone’s going to have to earn that title match by going through some of the very best wrestlers in the world today. So starting next week there’s going to be a tournament featuring sixteen of those great wrestlers, with the winner going to Starrcade to face you or your successor in the main event for the WCW World title!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

As the fans cheered this announcement, Rude could be seen mouthing the word ‘successor’.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

You see, you have to defend that title every single month of the year, no skipping, and with the tournament not concluding until the Clash next month, you won’t have a title match there... but you will defend your title in November, and I don’t see any reason to make the fans wait. Next week, here on Saturday Night, you’ll be facing another man who took a hell of a beating at Halloween Havoc, a man who still found a way to walk out the winner, a man who’s as much in need of rest and recuperation as you right now, but who I know will be a hundred percent fit next week, especially with the chance to win the World title on the line!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Inside the ring, Rude threw his mic to the mat and marched over to the ropes, pointing and snarling at Ventura as the Commissioner stared back at him evenly.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Ric Flair, Rick Rude and Big Van Vader were far from the only competitors suffering the effects of Halloween Havoc; All four contestants in the World tag title match have been placed on medical leave for at least two weeks to recover from the injuries they sustained in the cage match! That meant that Dustin Rhodes and Barry Windham couldn’t answer for themselves when Nikita Koloff and Ron Simmons came looking for a tag title match, but Jesse Ventura could – and the newly allied pairing were told to earn their shot, starting on Sunday night against Brutal K!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Simmons may have some frustration to vent in that match, following as it does his failure to unseat Vinnie Vegas as Television champion; However, the blame can hardly be said to lie with Simmons, as Diamond Dallas Page and a roll of silver quarters were heavily involved in the finish to the match!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Randy Savage was in a thoughtful mood when approached backstage. He admitted that his loss to Scott Steiner several weeks ago had been a chastening experience, that his opponent had taken the win cleanly... and brutally.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong> Savage: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">Time was, the Macho Man wouldn’t stop going after Scott Steiner, ooh yeah, but maybe now, maybe the </div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><em>smart</em></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> thing to do is to know when to fold ‘em. Maybe the Steiner Animal has my number. Maybe I should take the loss, and change my focus. Maybe... Who knows what the future holds? Who knows which way the Madness will turn next?</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

For his part, Scott Steiner bulldozed his way through the challenge of the young Canadian, Chris Jericho – even though Tammy was surely a distraction at ringside! We can’t help but wonder if Steiner is being considered for a place in the upcoming tournament! We hear there’ll be qualification matches on Main Event tomorrow night!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Sting had a big loss on Thursday night as the United States championship changed hands to Steve Austin, but the crowd favourite found momentum against Brad Armstrong, taking victory with a Scorpion Deathlock – even if he did seem somewhat preoccupied afterwards.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Big Van Vader has a big match ahead, but the Ultimate Warrior is gunning for the man called Vader – not that Vader is looking to avoid that confrontation!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Shawn Michaels followed up his victory over Michael Hayes with a win over fellow young prospect Marcus Bagwell, although he needed a handful of the ropes to do it – clearly Diamond Dallas Page is teaching his charges to win at any cost! After the match Michaels indicated that he had gold on his mind – could he be thinking of challenging Vegas?</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The Diamond Studd had the opportunity to make it a great night for the Diamond Exchange, but Bret Hart in turn was out to regain his lost momentum after defeat at Halloween Havoc; The Hitman took the duke with a Sharpshooter on Studd in a thrilling affair. We see big things in the future for both these up-and-coming young talents!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The Malenkos, Joe and Dean, have unveiled a new streak of viciousness in recent outings, and seemed intent on sending a message here against Blanco & Konnan. Rather than pursuing the win, the Malenkos attacked their opponents with chairs after a few minutes, levelling both masked competitors and taking the loss – but walking out with their heads high while Blanco and Konnan had to be helped from the ring.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">In the Dangerous Alliance’s locker room, Paul E. Dangerously stood in front of a wall covered in pictures of WCW competitors surrounded by pages of notes, with lengths of string linking certain areas.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Dangerously’s other hand swept over the rest of the wall, and the array of stars displayed on it.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Dangerously smiled, although there was no warmth in the expression.

It was a night where several competitors sought to earn slots in the World title contendership tournament; Scott Steiner, Marcus Bagwell and Cactus Jack all booked their places via wins in singles competition, while the Thrillseekers capitalised on a chaotic four corners tag match to join them! With eleven spots left to decide, WCW live shows over the coming week will determine the final entrants – although we’re hearing that there may be an international flavour to the tournament with entrants invited from both AJPW and NJPW!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Cactus Jack made clear that, no matter how badly banged up he may be, he’s always going to be chasing the next fight – and the next chance for gold!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The one non-tournament singles match still had title implications; Vinnie Vegas defended the WCW Television title successfully against Todd Champion of the WCW Special Forces! Unlike Saturday’s matches, Diamond Dallas Page didn’t need to get involved beyond his usual aggravating presence at ringside, as Vegas overpowered Champion and won with the Snake Eyes!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Ron Simmons and Nikita Koloff want a tag team title shot – and began their campaign to prove themselves by devastating the young Japanese tandem known as Brutal K, who didn’t even have a chance for their usual shenanigans before they were overpowered. Manager Teddy Long was left looking thoughtful after the heavy loss...</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The York Foundation have bypassed the upcoming tournament to focus on defending their NWA titles – which the Foundation maintain have as much value as WCW’s World and World Tag Team titles!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

<p>Not a complete list as I'm in the PM section right now, but NWA titles have been defended at the following comapny's shows:</p><p> </p><p>

WCCW, WCWP, ECWA, IWCCW, TWF, WWC, UWFi (now defunct), PNW, ECW, PWF and the LPWA.</p><p> </p><p>

I think LMLW are in as well, or they may just be in a working agreement with WCW.</p><p> </p><p>

I've invited a couple of feds in to the NWA - TWF and the women's feds, at least. ECW debuted as a member.</p><p> </p><p>

EDIT: The Full list is ECWA, ECW, IWCCW, LMLW, LPWA, PNW, PWA, TWF, both WCWs*, WCCW and the WWC.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="font-size:8px;">Us and Windy City Wrestling, technically WCWP, but I like that we have IWCCW, WCW, WCW, WCCW and WWC</span></p><p> </p><p>

*</p><p> </p><p>

Apropos nothing, my current top 5 Who's Hot:</p><p> </p><p>

#5 Scott Steiner</p><p>

#4 Ron Simmons</p><p>

#3 Terence Taylor</p><p>

#2 Diamond Dallas Page</p><p>

#1 <em>Robert Gibson</em></p><p> </p><p>

Hot angles... and meanwhile Marcus Bagwell is coldest of the cold. I really do need to do something about that....</p>

The Sheik is inducted into the Hall of Immortals ... Bushwhacker Butch leaves the WWF ... UWFi go out of business ... WWF Bad Blood was headlined by Sgt Slaughter beating Mr Perfect and Greg Valentine retaining against Jake Roberts in a pair of great matches; The show scores a B overall ... Eagle Sawai and youngster Shane Helms both suffer broken backs ... In separate matches ... Nailz signs with the WWF, and surely that won’t lead to any problems whatsoever ... Nobuhiko Takada signs a written deal with NJPW, in spite of having long-term hip issues ... All Star in New England are upsetting everyone, with IWCCW and UWF both becoming hostile to them; UWF are also acting hostilely to WWC and PNW for no clear reason, except possibly Herb Abrams ... Paul Orndorff returns to the WWF ... Mr T announces that he’s taking bookings ... In case anyone’s wondering what the other half of the inaugural WrestleMania main event are up to, Roddy Piper just returned to WWF from making a movie and Hulk Hogan put over Jim Duggan again on Superstars ... Terry Gordy and Mike Awesome both sustain herniated discs ... ECWA announce that they’re promoting Sid Vicious as their figurehead; On the same day, news breaks that ECWA have become hostile to the MEWF, SSW and the GWF ... A 17 year old German named Alex Wright makes his professional debut, which is surely nothing for WCW to get excited about</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

<p><em>What in the world is Vince doing to the WWF? I can’t belive the Hammer still has that Winged Eagle around his waist....although to be fair, you have most of the 1992 World Title picture with you, what with Flair, Savage, Bret, Warrior, and even to an extent Hall (who had that brief World Title programme in early 93) hell, even Michaels is with you (the Survivor Series 92 challenger). I’m surprised Hogan didn’t wear the belt forever, although I would be curious to see you take over the WWF for one show to see if a player controlled Hogan is as willing to job to Duggan as an AI controlled Hogan seems to be.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<em>Good lord, what a huge match, you don’t really want either man to lose, I’m tempted to go for a no contest due to copious interference just to keep the “undefeated” streak alive without having to job Vader....interested to see how the heel vs. heel match grades too</em></p><p> </p><p>

</p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">The night began with two surprises – not only was Jesse Ventura on commentary alongside Jim Ross and Paul E. Dangerously, but he announced that the first match on the show would be the World title match between Rick Rude and Big Van Vader.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Paul E. Dangerously was far from happy about his client, the World champion, being the first man through the curtain.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Dangerously: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">He is the World champion, he is undefeated, he is the greatest wrestler in WCW and you, sir, you have him coming out to open the show when for so many months that has been the preserve of the Television champion! Not to take anything from Vinnie Vegas, but surely you can see that this is something of a slight to my client!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Dangerously: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">My client wants a worthy challenger – something you’ve clearly found for him tonight! But the idea that he should defend his title against Ric Flair again-</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Now, Flair’s qualified for the tournament so it could be him and Rude at Starrcade – but he’s got to get through fifteen other guys to get there. Anyone who wins four straight in this tournament deserves that title shot – there’s a great mix of experience, youth, international flavour and a couple of wild cards in there, including two of your boys!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

How can you expect Arn Anderson and Steve Austin to share a locker room with Rick Rude right now? How can you expect them to compete against Rude when one inevitably wins this tournament?

In the ring, Vader was ferociously battering the World champion, who was using every trick in his book – and a couple in Madusa’s, before Harley Race chased her away from the ring – to keep the challenger at bay. Rude had just evaded being crushed with a big splash, but an avalanche in the corner left the champion on shaky legs.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Ross: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">The champion is in danger!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

With the title on the line, Rude dug deeper still and stopped Vader in his tracks with an almighty right hook that caught Vader flush on the side of the head. Momentarily stunned, Vader was open to Rude hitting him with one, two, three clotheslines, the last knocking him to the mat.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Ross: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">And Vader is down! Rick Rude may have weathered the storm!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Ventura</strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">Or he may have found himself in its eye!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Rude kept up his assault, but the damage he inflicted was limited by his struggles to lift Vader – even with the champion’s incredible strength, the 450 pounder was just too heavy to slam or suplex, and an attempt at the latter saw Vader reverse and suplex Rude out of the ring to the arena floor.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Ross: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">Oh, what a landing! I’m struggling to think of any wrestler I’ve seen who’s been anywhere near as dominant as Big Van Vader!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

He’s learning under Harley Race and, well...</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Following Rude to the outside, Vader grabbed the champion by the head and pitched him into the guard rail.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

With no-one around to help Rude, Vader flattened him with a hefty clothesline as he tried to stand. Harley Race approached, yelling at the mastodon to end Rude and take the title. Vader looked to Race for direction, and Race responded with a gesture: Clasped hands.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Vader was about to roll Rude back into the ring when Race stopped him and gestured to the ground. Vader smiled as the import of Race’s words hit home, and set Rude up for the powerbomb outside the ring.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

...the champion went low, putting everything he had into an uppercut that left the challenger doubled over and gasping for air. Rude rose slowly and kicked Vader in the face, rocking the bigger man back on his heels. Grabbing at Vader’s head Rude tried to turn him around for a Rude Awakening. Although he nearly got Vader turned around, the challenger grabbed Rude’s arms and pried them off his head, breaking free. Vader once more threw Rude into the guard rail. Before Rude had the chance to react, Vader charged at him as fast as he could, slamming into Rude and the guard rail and sending both flying as their combined weight tore it free and into the rows of seats beyond them, scattering fans before them as they ploughed into the steel chairs and the hard concrete floor.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

...the other members of the Kingdom and Dangerous Alliance made their way down to the ring. Mr Hughes and the One Percenters gathered around Vader, while Madusa joined Anderson and Austin in trying to pick up Rude. Separating the two was not easy, not least because of the twisted barrier around them, and the two groups nearly came to blows before Race and Dangerously got in between them, returning their attention to their fallen comrades.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Before the main event, Ric Flair praised his opponent, Masahiro Chono, as one of the toughest wrestlers in the world.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Flair: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">Chono deserves this spot, Patricia! Last year he won the G1 Climax over in Japan – the very best they have, all in, and Chono came out on top! Then this year he went back in and did it all over again! SO this is a man who knows tournaments, who knows how to beat the best of the best and who – Whoooo! – could even be the Man from Japan! I’ll have to be at my best to beat him, Patricia, but right now I’ll you that I’ve never felt better!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The night’s main event saw the Nature Boy clashing with the hard-hitting Chono, out to prove himself to a new audience. With a largely unknown opponent across the ring from him, Flair fought a fairly simple match focused on Chono’s legs, with Dangerously on commentary noting that Chono liked to land a big boot to finish his matches. But Chono is a competitor of varied talents, and to Flair’s evident surprise an early Figure Four attempt was countered into an STF that had Flair scrambling for the ropes.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Ross: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">He’s young, but Chono is no rookie! The Nature Boy is in a fight here!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Chono visibly grew in confidence as he took the fight to his legendary opponent, scoring with a belly-to-back suplex and an atomic drop to wear down Flair. Flair fired back, but Chono was relentless, getting a near fall off a diving shoulder block, before Flair could only break the pin after a Russian legsweep by getting one foot under the ropes. Chono looked irritated to be denied victory again, but moved to set Flair up for something that looked remarkably like a Rude Awakening – before Flair suddenly countered with a backslide that was just enough to put Chono down for three!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Flair advances – and offers a handshake out of respect to his opponent! Masa Chono can return to Japan with his head held high after an effort like that!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

One tournament match that may have looked lopsided on paper was the pairing of the fast-rising Chris Jericho with the wildman Cactus Jack. With Jack outweighing his opponent by sixty pounds and seemingly having no limits on what he’ll do to win a match, he was the heavy favourite going into the match, but as is often the case ‘twas beauty that felled the beast – or, at least, Tammy who tripped Cactus as he tried to suplex Jericho into the ring. Jericho fell on top of Cactus, and with Tammy hauling on the New Mexican’s legs, Jericho was just able to snatch the win – but he and Tammy made sure to beat a hasty retreat before celebrating, as Cactus was both fresh enough to keep fighting, and quite mad enough that even the referee ran from the ring rather than stay in arm’s reach!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Vinnie Vegas isn’t a part of the tournament, but with both the Television title and United States tag title belts around his waist as he approached the ring, we don’t think that the big man has the time! Vegas took down Firebreaker Chip with a Snake Eyes to defend the first half of the gold. Afterwards, Vegas exchanged a salute with Shawn Michaels as the Rough Diamond made his way to the ring for his first round match.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Michaels was facing Lance Storm, with the young Thrillseeker having qualified on Main Event last week. The duo, future stars for sure, were pretty evenly matched, with Storm perhaps being the more technically proficient, and Michaels a little faster. The pair went back and forth, but it was the managers who made the difference; Tammy argued a point with the official, and Diamond Dallas Page belted Storm with a roll of quarters, leaving him unable to defend himself from the Teardrop Suplex as Michaels advanced to round two!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Michaels gave the same salute to Diamond Studd in turn as Studd entered for his tournament match with Sting, the two having qualified in matches at WCW live events over the course of the week. Sting and Studd always have great matches, and this was another such effort as the imposing Studd made Sting reach deep into his repertoire, mixing up speed and strength as Studd came close several times to landing the Diamond Death Drop, only for Sting to counter the third attempt with a rollup, turning Studd over into the Scorpion Deathlock to force the submission and book his place in the second round!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

</div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong> Dangerously: </strong></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">Yeah, well, they should enjoy it while it lasts, Ross – Sting’s not winning this, not with Arn Anderson and Steve Austin on the other side of the draw!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Nikita Koloff and Ron Simmons continued to stake their claim for a title shot once the new champions are fit to compete – the hulking duo were nothing short of devastating against the Lightning Express, with Koloff crushing Brad Armstrong with a Jackhammer for the win.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Vinnie Vegas made short work of Mike Droese in his fifth defence of the WCW Television title. Vegas surrendered the title after the match and gleefully accepted the cheque for his winnings – but wouldn’t be drawn on which champion he’d challenge next.</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

So catch me and the Diamond Exchange on Saturday, and once me and the Studd defend the </div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><em>other</em></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> title I’ve been holding all this time, I’ll show you all how we’re gonna come up sixes again!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

There were three first round matches in the #1 contender tournament on Sunday night. In the first match, the world traveller Steve Williams clashed with the masked Mexican star Konnan, and advanced to the second round with a Doctor Bomb. El Tigre Blanco consoled his partner after the match – Tigre still had a shot!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The second tournament match saw young Marcus Bagwell clash with Scott Steiner. Bagwell is a promising talent, and we believe he has a very bright future, but he’ll have to look back on this match as a learning experience, tasting defeat after a Frankensteiner. Steiner took a shot at Bagwell’s youth afterwards, rubbing salt into his wounds as he suggested that Bagwell has a long way to go to be ready to share the ring with the Steiner Animal!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The final tournament match of the night was also a battle between two young stars, as El Tigre Blanco clashed with United States champion Steve Austin. Blanco already has multiple title reigns to his name in WCW and is not to be underrated, but Austin – who, on occasion, may be a little cocky – clearly had his opponent well scouted. Blanco’s athletic offence, in comparison to Austin’s more grounded style, resulted in a tightly contested affair that either man could have won. Austin certainly seemed to be on the ropes at times as Blanco was hard to hold on to for the Stun Gun, but eventually a series of kicks in the corner wore his opponent down long enough for the Stun Gun to hit, and Austin advanced to the second round!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

The Stocks And Shares Express made their first defence of the NWA World Tag Team titles, beating out the challenge of the young Texas-based duo known as the Bad Crew, who left the ring with a loss and several thousand dollars less than when they arrived!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Nikita Koloff and Ron Simmons continued to press their claims for a World tag title shot as they came through a hard-hitting bout with the One Percenters, Simmons eventually getting the pin on Don Harris with a Spinebuster. Forgive us a little niche commentary, but does anyone hit a standing spinebuster better than Simmons? We’d love to see a battle between him and Arn Anderson to see who has the better spinebuster overall!</div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

<p>Beat The Champ: <strong>Lance Storm</strong> vs. Masahiro Chono – WCW Television Title</p><p>

<strong>Chono is the more over world wide talent but could Tammy pay some dividends here...I say upset yes!</strong></p><p> </p><p>

First round: Ricky Steamboat vs. <strong>Arn Anderson</strong></p><p><strong>

Hopefully Arn is back to his winning ways. Dragon has slowed down here</strong></p><p> </p><p>

Quarter-final: <strong>Sting</strong> vs. Steve Williams</p><p>

<strong>I wish Doc had a bigger spot in the US</strong></p><p> </p><p>

Quarter-final: <strong>Ric Flair</strong> vs. Shawn Michaels</p><p>

<strong>Wow the childhood dream but I think Ric advances here</strong></p><p> </p><p>

Quarter-final: Chris Jericho vs. Steve Austin</p><p>

<strong>Nice seeing the young guys getting shots, but too much Austin here for Mr Jericho</strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Ron Simmons and Nikita Koloff</strong> vs. Clark Hainess and Jeff Farmer</p><p>

<strong>This is a big tough team, but I wonder who the leader is</strong></p>
