One of these matches does NOT take place, and is instead replaced with <strong>Bret Hart</strong> vs. Brian Pillman......which match and why? Matt Hardy vs. Rich Steiner as that was my ballsiest pick on this card. <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Perhaps there is a brawl instead of that match so they add a different singles I have no clue. <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Steiner vs. Kane is the most logical one that doesn't happen, as that's a match you will probably want to save for a PPV buyrate down the line. They will get into a brawl backstage and get thrown out of the building.</p>

Scotty climbs out of his vehicle and grabs his bags out of the back, before finally proudly draping the WWF Title over his shoulder, and walking towards the building with a huge smile on his face.....he’s stopped by a member of the WWF.com team, looking for an exclusive for the website......asking Steiner how he feels about having to put the WWF Championship on the line at In Your House, against The Corporate Cannon, Brian Pillman.......</p><p> </p><p> ......Scotty stops with a slightly confused look on his face, asking the would-be interviewer who he was......</p><p> </p><p>

event.......</p><p> </p><p> <em>”.........THATS IT?......THATS YOUR QUESTION?.......I GOTTA TELL YA KID, THATS A STUPID QUESTION......SO I’M FACING PILLMAN.....SO WHAT?.....I’VE KICKED HIS SCRAWNY

Anderson come bursting out of the building and begin laying the boots to the downed Big Poppa Pump.....</p><p> </p><p> ......Scotty isn’t going down without a fight however, and powers his way back to his knees, shoving Anderson flying, before finally getting back to his feet where he begins pummelling Flair with blows.....unfortunately that leaves his back open......and The Enforcer comes flying back into shot with that Tyre Iron in hand, crushing it into the knee of Steiner who collapses to the concrete floor clutching at his leg......</p><p> </p><p> ......like shark’s smelling blood, Flair and Arn descend on the bad knee, kicking, stomping and wrenching at it, until Anderson finally finishes with one last blow, slamming the knee against the floor and telling Steiner that <em>”.......nothing personal kid......that was just a message from the man in the ivory tower.....”</em></p><p> </p><p> .....before the two men head back into the building......but not until Flair gives the Winged Eagle Belt that he once himself held, a long looking over......</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Rating:</strong> A</p><p> </p><p> </p><p></p></div><div

week, no sooner have the opening credits finished rolling, than we are treated to the arrival of the owner of the World Wrestling Federation, Mr Vincent Kennedy McMahon.....along with his Big Red

hand......</p><p> </p><p> .....he tells the crowd that their advertised main event, featuring the World Wrestling Federation Champion Scott Steiner facing off against Kane.......unfortunately won’t be happening.......he says that Mr. Steiner has a rather unfortunate accident earlier today.....but not to worry, being the benevolent owner that he is, he has something even better for them.......before

as a member of the Four Horsemen faction.....although both men make sure to give Kane a wide birth.......</p><p> </p><p> .......Vince thanks the pair for coming out, telling them that following an unfortunate incident involving Scott Steiner earlier tonight, and because of that he’s had to come up with a brand new main event.....and it’s a main event they will both be interested to hear.....because as a welcome to the company gift, Vince McMahon has booked Flair and Anderson to face the Hart Foundation one more time at In Your House, for the World Wrestling Federation Tag Team Titles.......thats one gift......the second is tonight’s main event.....</p><p> </p><p> <em>”.......because while I know that both Bret Hart and Owen Hart’s knee’s are not at 100% right

however, who then joined his stable mates in a three on two assault of the European and Light Heavyweight Champions......Marty Jannetty surprisingly ran out to make the save, before indicating that Faarooq’s WWF Intercontinental Title was a prize that he had his eye on......so here we are...... </p><p> </p><p> .......this is a pretty big test for Kidman to be fair......all three of his opponents are head and shoulders above him in the pecking order, with the Rock, Scorpio and Faarooq all knocking at that glass calling just below the main event......and his partner, The Bulldog is arguably a step higher than even that.....even Marty is higher on the food chain than young Kidman at the minute, although he is growing in popularity by the day......</p><p> </p><p> .......this match will certainly have helped his growing popularity too, because while he didn’t personally pick up the win, he WAS on the winning side......after Jannetty nailed Scorpio with an Into the Void Superkick, that kicked him right into the waiting arms of the Bulldog. Who scooped him up and drove him into the mat with that Running Powerslam that gave the trio a big victory ahead of In Your House in just two weeks time.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Winner(s):</strong> The

Man”....he asks tells Shamrock that this is the second time in as many weeks that he’s been spotted front and centre at a WWF event.......has Shamrock decided to trade in the octagon for the squared circle? </p><p> </p><p> Shamrock chuckles at that, telling Hendrix that he’s just here as a fan like everyone else, looking to enjoy the great action that can only be seen in the World Wrestling Federation.......he’s not the greatest talker in the world our Shammy, but he gets his point across well enough, before Hendrix asks him for his thoughts on the Million Dollar Corporation......and more importantly Rich Steiner, following last weeks war of words.....Ken says that he has the upmost respect for Steiner, he’s a hell of an athlete.....seems like he USED to be a hell of a guy too, until he sold his soul to the Million Dollar Man......Shamrock says that there’s one thing money can’t buy, and that’s integrity, something lacking in every member of DiBiase’s group, and he says he wasn’t going to stand by and watch as four guys tried to beat on two.....Ken says the Hardy Boys won their match last week fair and square, they didn’t deserve to be assaulted for it......Shamrock says he might not be a wrestler, but he sure as hell knows how to fight, and if someone gets in his face, he’s not the kind of man to back down from a challenge.....</p><p> </p><p> ......Dok thanks

......while the official does allow Jeff Hardy and Ted DiBiase to remain at ringside, he’s quick to eject the rest of the Corporation members to the back, so this IS at least a somewhat fair encounter......I say somewhat fair, because while Steiner doesn’t have Jarrett or Southern Justice to interfere, he’s not shy about bending the rules.....and DiBiase certainly isn’t shy about

screwed him over since he lost the WWF Championship to Shawn Michaels back at Wrestlemania XII.....and in fairness to Bret, he has a point.....because it was Pillman that turned his back on Hart at the King of the Ring 1996, costing Bret not only the King of the Ring title, but also a shot at the WWF Championship that was guaranteed to the winner of that event.....</p><p> </p><p> ......Pillman

monthly National Battle.....which I'm annoyingly still losing.....he's the number one guy for us).....the Hitman on the other hand has quite a lot on his plate right now.....an upcoming WWF Tag Team Title defence against Ric Flair and Arn Anderson at In Your House for starters......a partner who's awol with a bum knee for two.......and a heavily strapped up knee of his own that's definitely seen better days......</p><p> </p><p> .......this was a great match....and as promised, the British Bulldog DID accompany the Hitman to ringside.....unfortunately he didn't stick around for the entirety of

<p>Another great show this week, as the ratings continue to rise.....speaking of things rising, Raven's pay packet just took a big jump....the leader of the Flock may have talked himself into the main event, but he's been getting midcard money since his arrival, so I wasn't surprised by the request.....I was happy to give it to him too.....although I only gave him roughly 75% of what he wanted, but that's still a $20,000 a month increase.....perhaps knowing that his mouth had a part in his current position as well, Raven informed me that he wants to tone down his brawling and move to a more entertainment based approach.....that's fine by me....the brawling may have worked for him down in ECW, but he doesn't need to go as extreme with it here, as his great match with Rey Mysterio a few months ago proved....</p><p> </p><p> .....young Billy Kidman has obviously sat up and took notice of how Chris Jericho's new and improved body size has propelled him up the card, because the youngster has really been hitting the gym as of late, bulking up to a far more muscular look than before.....it's starting to look like putting the Light Heavyweight Title on this young man was a good idea, because not only is his popularity rising, but now he's packed on a few pounds his star quality is rising too..... </p><p> </p><p> ......AJPW held a celebration banquet this past week, as they welcomed two new members into their Hall of Fame.....Jumbo Tsuruta and Yoshiaki Yatsu....good for them.....</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> ......in what must be the biggest bit of news however this week, the rumours are true, because Hulk Hogans WCW contract is officially coming to an end....obviously Bischoff has offered him an extension. Like it or not, Hogan is still the biggest name in professional wrestling....he's STILL the man that the casual fan instantly recognises.....and while we are undeniably THE number one promotion in the world.....and the ONLY international promotion in the world.....at a National level, WCW still has the faces that the people know.....but as our younger generation gains popularity and exposure, it's really only Hogan that keeps them ahead of us where the star power is concerned.......</p><p> </p><p> ......with that in mind, you'd think signing the Hulkster would be my number one priority then.....except it's not....and I'm not even going to try.....in reality, I don't have to buy star power....not when I'm creating my own stars.....Brian Pillman, Steve Austin, Chris Jericho......all three virtual unknowns are now three of the most well known faces on my roster.....and their popularity continues to grow.....a few more months and I don't think even the great Hulk Hogan will be able to help WCW win the National battle.......but that's not the only reason I'm not even going to attempt to sign Hogan......the main reason is that I'm trying to move FORWARD not backwards, and believe me, an ego the size of Hogans in the locker room would be a MAJOR step back.......and then there's the contract Bischoff has offered......$90,000 a month....to work nothing but events, no TV.......and that's with a creative control clause too.......talk about putting a noose round your own neck......good luck Bischoff, you're going to need it.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43289" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><p> </p><p> <strong>Preview for WWF Raw is War, Week 3, May 1997</strong> </p><p> </p><p> Scott Steiner, Bret Hart, Scott Hall & Sean Waltman vs. Brian Pillman, Kane, Ric Flair & Arn Anderson</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Psycho Sid vs. Jeff Jarrett</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> The British Bulldog vs. Kama</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Al Snow & Chris Candido vs. The New Age Outlaws</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Bart Gunn vs. Marc Mero</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Jeff Hardy vs. Rich Steiner</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> </p></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote>

<p>So the young BK has an incredibly better trajectory here than he did IRL, I see that. <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

That contract is nuts. As are Bischoff and Hogan both, good call. You are doing a great job of establishing workers, clearly.</p><p> </p><p>

Enforcer Arn Anderson.....</p><p> </p><p> .....McMahon riles up the crowd as he is oft to do, before telling everyone exactly why they are all gathered here right now......</p><p> </p><p>

in a cowardly attack by Kevin Nash.....before suffering a heinous Jacknife Powerbomb through the announce table, that would have ended a lesser man’s career.......”</em></p><p> </p><p> .....Vince

microphone.....</p><p> </p><p> .....he says that it’s good to be back in the WWF.....to which Jim Ross sarcastically comments that Shawn has been gone all of three weeks.....and it’s good to be back

decision, grabbing him by the shirt and screaming at him that it was Raven the referee should have been doing something about, not disqualifying Sid.....the poor official looks rightfully terrified

Hart.....and the WWF Champion, Big Poppa Pump, Scott Steiner.....Dok speaks to Hall and Waltman first, asking them first where Kevin Nash was, and second, if they heard the comments made earlier this evening by Ric Flair? Hall says not to worry about Nash, the Big Man is always right where the Big Man needs to be......and right now, he’s about 50 feet away from Shawn Michaels.....but after Sunday night, <em>”....he’s gonna be much closer Chico.....”</em></p><p> </p><p> ......as for the comments made by Flair, yeah they heard them....so what? Waltman says that the KLiQ did everything to keep that WWF Title around the waist of Shawn Michaels for twelve months.....they practically wiped the Boy Toy’s ass for him, and what thanks did they get? And as far as Flair and Anderson go, if they’ve got a problem with the Wolfpac, they can do something about it.....tonight.....</p><p> </p><p> ......Dok addresses Steiner next, asking him how his leg is holding up after the attack last week.....and this is serious Steiner....and serious Steiner is STILL seriously p*ssed....he shouts that his leg is fine, and even if it wasn’t fine, he only needs one leg to beat the living s*it out of Brian Pillman Sunday night......and as for Flair and Anderson, he thought he’d seen the last of them when he got the hell out of WCW ears back.....but that’s ok, because he’s happy to take the twelve times World Champion and shove his fist twelve times down his throat.....</p><p> </p><p> .....last but not least it’s the Hitman, and Dok asks him not only how HIS leg is doing, but Owens as well, saying that Owen hasn’t been seen for weeks, will he even make it to In Your House to defend the WWF Tag Team Titles against Flair and Anderson? Bret pauses for a moment to look at the men surrounding him, before telling Dok that Owen is 99% healed, and will be ready and raring to go by Sunday.....his knee, it’s not great.....but the Hitman has been beat up for years now and it’s not stopped him yet......</p><p> </p><p> <em>”.......you know why Dok?

Rick Rude however says that Bret Hart is not happy about anything recently, he says that he SHOULD be enjoying the fact that he and his brother are the WWF Tag Team Champions, instead he seems to enjoy compiling a list of people who have screwed him over more.......Michaels, Nash, Hall, Waltman.....Austin, Pillman.....Flair, Anderson.....in fact, Scott Steiner may be the only one in this match that the Hitman doesn’t have a problem with......</p><p> </p><p> ......which is probably why we see more unity from Steiner and Hart than we do Hart and the Wolfpac.....In fact it takes a while before the Hitman will even (reluctantly) accept a tag from either Hall or Waltman.....and the heels take advantage of that dissension, finally managing to isolate the former 123 Kid, working over the smallest man in the match.....even though Waltman is a hairs width away from being a bonafide main eventer (in fact if you speak to him, he’ll tell you he should be in the main event) he still plays a great underdog, and his size helps him play the Babyface in peril role perfectly, especially when you consider that he still has that plaster cast on his arm......</p><p> </p><p> .......finally Waltman is able to catch a breather, as he sidesteps an oncoming Arn Anderson, using his opponents own force to attempt to propel him through the ropes and to the floor......unfortunately Anderson didn’t make it to the floor......because the Hitman was standing on the apron, right where Waltman tossed his opponent, and the Enforcer crashed into Hart, sending him flying off the apron where he crashes sternum first into the crowd barrier......Waltman manages to make the tag out to Steiner, who hits the ring like a madman taking on all four men alone.......he could PROBABLY have used some help, but his team mates are currently preoccupied, because the Hitman has dragged the weary Waltman to the floor, and is currently accusing him of deliberately trying to injure him further. Hall is trying to defuse the situation, but Bret tells them both that he knew they couldn’t be trusted, they’re just trying to make sure Bret goes into In Your House even more hurt than he already is......</p><p> </p><p> <em>”......you’re still trying to screw me......well screw you......”</em></p><p> </p><p> ......and with that Hart simply turns and walks out of the match, leaving his team mates one man down......not that it matters......because in the ensuing commotion Pillman, Kane, Flair and Anderson have overwhelmed Scott Steiner and as Kane spins Big Poppa Pump upside down and delivers a hard Tombstone Piledriver, it’s Pillman that makes the cover, while Flair and Anderson ensure that the Wolfpac don’t break up the cover.....and three seconds later.....six days before their big title match, The Corporate Cannon has just pinned the World Wrestling Federation Champion.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Winner(s):</strong> Brian Pillman, Kane, RicFlair & Arn Anderson </p><p> <strong>Rating:</strong> A</p><p> </p><p> </p><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43289" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"></div><p> </p><p> <img alt="tVfGex3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tVfGex3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="iXAv5bk.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/iXAv5bk.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="wnBGIqa.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/wnBGIqa.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="msPbqH3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/msPbqH3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> <img alt="j2Tooev.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/j2Tooev.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="zDiEZgK.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/zDiEZgK.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="lbc4nWL.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/lbc4nWL.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> Steiner is down......and in pretty bad shape.....Waltman isn’t faring much better following the punishment he withstood during the course of the match, coupled with the Chokeslam that he soon receives courtesy of Kane......and since Bret Hart is nowhere to be seen, Scott Hall is the last man standing.....and to Scott’s credit, he’s not going down without a fight, as he lays into Flair and Anderson with rights and lefts, as well as catching a charging Pillman in his arms and tossing him overhead with a fall away slam......of course there’s still the little matter of the seven foot monster Kane, who levels the Bad Guy with a Big Boot......</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <img alt="HDOWnFw.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/HDOWnFw.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="mrnGrsE.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/mrnGrsE.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> .....and with Steiner, Hall and Waltman down, look who comes walking out from the back.....nine other than the Heartbreak Kid himself.....he saunters down to the ring with a cocky smirk on his face......and as Pillman stands over the downed Scott Steiner, Ric Flair wraps that already damaged knee of the WWF Champion up in the Figure Four Leglock......</p><p> </p><p> ......Shawn soon joins Kane and Anderson in the beat down of Hall and Waltman, calling both men ungrateful sons of bitches with every blow he lands.

<p>Another great show, and another record setting rating as we rack up a massive rating of 30.32, while Nitro still tools down in the mid 17’s.......and to be fair they put in a god awful show this week......do you remember me mentioning a few months back that former WCW Wrestler Jeep Swenson, the former “Ultimate Solution” from the Alliance to end Hulkamania had started in the latest Batman movie as Bane? I joked that WCW would snap him right back up now he had a bit of notoriety.......well guess who the latest main eventer in World Championship Wrestling is, as Jeep Swenson made his Nitro (re)debut, going to a no contest with Sting to close the show.......Sting.......THE franchise player of WCW......arguably their second biggest name behind Hogan......and he can’t even get a win over a scrub like Swenson......and as for Eddie Guerrero, how did the capitalise on his huge win over Lex Luger? They teamed him up with Abdullah the Butcher and Kevin Sullivan, to defeat the team of the Renegade and the Pit Bulls....like I say, this show sucked......</p><p> </p><p> ......I don’t know what’s going on with our Light Heavyweight division.....first it was Jericho bulking up.....then Kidman decided to add some muscle to his frame......now Jerry Lynn of all people has been hitting the gym......to be fair he certainly looks more of a star for it, but realistically he’s still quite bland, muscle or no muscle.....</p><p> </p><p> .......both of the Bushwhackers and Tony Atlas have announced they are hanging their boots up this week. Atlas had a hell of a career spanning two decades, and along with Rocky Johnson was the first black man to hold the WWF Tag Team Titles, but he held Championships wherever he went....Mid Atlantic, the NWA, World Class.....he also holds the distinction of being able to claim that he both press slammed and pinned Hulk Hogan, something that few other people can say.......</p><p> </p><p> .....the Bushwhackers in the other hand have been teaming together for over thirty years now.....and have held gold in virtually every promotion the have been in, apart from the company that bought them their most notoriety....us.......to be fair, the Bushwhackers were nothing more than a comedy team here, which is why they were never going to get the gold.......as the blood thirsty Sheepherders however they bladed their way through Continental, Florida, Mid Atlantic, Pacific, and Stampede, picking up Tag Titles along the way.....all three individuals have certainly got plenty of memory’s to look back on now their careers have come to an end.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43289" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><p> </p><p> <img alt="NKyT4Fx.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/NKyT4Fx.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Preview for WWF In Your House, Week 3, May 1997</strong> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>WWF Championship Match</strong></p><p> Scott Steiner © vs Brian Pillman</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> <strong>WWF Tag Team Championship Match</strong></p><p> The Hart Foundation © vs. Ric Flair & Arn Anderson</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> <strong>WWF Intercontinental Championship Match</strong></p><p> Faarooq © vs. Marty Jannetty</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> <strong>WWF European Championship Match</strong></p><p> The British Bulldog © vs. The Rock</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> <strong>WWF Light Heavyweight Championship Match</strong></p><p> Billy Kidman © vs. Scorpio</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Contract or Career</strong></p><p> Kevin Nash vs. Kane</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Mr. Perfect, Barry Windham & Rick Rude vs. Bradshaw & The New Age Outlaws</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Cactus Jack & The Undertaker vs. Goldust & Ahmed Johnson</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> Rey Mysterio vs. Chris Jericho</p><p> Comments:</p><p> </p><p> </p></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote>
