On the trio enter the ring it becomes obvious that they all have gold on their minds tonight as DDP, who is the first to speak, says that he is now officially the number one contender to Jeff Jarrett's World Heavyweight Championship and he's coming for that title at New Blood Rising! The crowd cheers this statement as Page hands the mic to Kevin Nash, and Nash and Savage are still looking for a Tag Team Title shot, with Nash saying that they don't care how many hoops they have to jump through; they want a shot at the titles at New Blood Rising! <img alt="sSiM1MW.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/sSiM1MW.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="9umPviH.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9umPviH.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="epiwJ9r.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/epiwJ9r.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="tjPJopW.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tjPJopW.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> The Chosen Ones then appear at the top of the ramp and the fans are quick to boo their arrival. Eric Bischoff has a mic in his hands and he proceeds to book a huge match for tonight; Diamond Dallas Page and Kevin Nash vs. Jeff Jarrett and Lex Luger... with the added stipulation that if Nash and Page wins...then DDP will get to choose a stipulation for the World Title match at New Blood Rising AND Nash and Savage will get a Tag Team Title shot. But if Jarrett and Luger wins, DDP forfeits his World Title shot and Nash and Savage don't get their Tag Team Title shot. Bischoff notes that there is a saying that goes something like "be careful what you wish for" and maybe Page, Nash and Savage should have thought a little bit about that before they came out here tonight because now it's all or nothing! The announcers wonder what DDP thinks of having to put it all on the line like this, but, almost as if he was reading their minds, Bischoff says that if Page has a problem with putting his title shot on the line tonight...well, then he's got his big buddy to thank for it. The Chosen Ones return to the back as the camera focuses on the three men in the ring before cutting elsewhere.

In this short video, Flair does not look like a happy man as he exits his limo and storms into the building, looking like a man itching for a fight here tonight, or so Mike Tenay says as the video comes to an end.

Rhodes controls this one from the get-go, but he soon has to have eyes in the back of his head as... <img alt="5crDQaK.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/5crDQaK.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="RBBYBSm.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/RBBYBSm.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Crowbar and Daffney make their way down to ringside. They don't get involved in the match, however, but instead they just stand at ringside...eerily watching. The match ends when Rhodes hits a running bulldog on Storm and picks up the pinfall victory. Dustin Rhodes defeated James Storm at 2.38 by pinfall with a Running Bulldog (C-) Having picked up the win, Rhodes readies himself for a potential fight with Crowbar, but it never comes as Crowbar and Daffney just return to the back while Tony and Mike again talk about the strange behavior of Crowbar and Daffney since their return. </div></div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44117" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"> <img alt="Z1DlA0N.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Z1DlA0N.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="zah6nFe.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/zah6nFe.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> In the back, "Mean" Gene Okerlund has caught up with "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and Gene asks just what it is that has Flair in such a bad mood here tonight. Flair, in turn, asks Gene why he shouldn't be in a bad mood? Flair says that the last several months have been nothing but bad news for him and he's sick and tired of playing second fiddle when he should be front and center in the spotlight! Gene starts to bring up last week's main event, but Flair cuts him off halfway through the question and says that he is still The Man regardless of what anybody else thinks, and he is not going to allow himself to be disrespected any longer! Flair then walks off and Gene sends us back to ringside.

It shows in this one, too, as Morrus wastes no time in taking the fight to Evan Karagias, punishing him with some stiff upper body shots and impactful power moves. It looks like Morrus will make short work of Karagias, but then Shannon Moore enters the ring and attacks Morrus from behind, causing the referee to call for the disqualification. Hugh Morrus defeated Evan Karagias at 3.59 by disqualification when Shannon Moore got involved (D+) Shannon Moore continues his attack even as the bell continues to ring, and Evan Karagias joins in as well and now both members of 3-Count are beating Hugh Morrus down. Tony Schiavone calls 3-Count "a couple of disrespectful little punks", but they are really doing a number on Hugh Morrus here until... <img alt="6eOQ29A.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/6eOQ29A.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Road Warrior Animal suddenly comes running down the entrance ramp! Tony Schiavone excitedly notes that we haven't seen Animal in WCW since The Big Bang pay per view as Animal hits the ring and takes the fight to both members of 3-Count, running over them with some nasty clotheslines! Animal throws Shannon Moore out of the ring, and then he hoists Karagias up in a military press...and throws him over the top rope and onto Shannon Moore outside the ring! Animal has returned to WCW and made an immediate impact here tonight on Nitro!

Stacy hands Kanyon the mic, and Kanyon says that he's got some words for "The Cat". Kanyon says that a cat may have nine lives, but that won't help him one bit when his career comes to an end at the hands of the future of professional wrestling; Chris Kanyon. Kanyon is about to continue his promo, but then... <img alt="t5bgsE2.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/t5bgsE2.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="GQpaxEc.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/GQpaxEc.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> "The Cat" Ernest Miller's music hits, cutting Kanyon off, and "The Cat" and Miss Jones come out from the back. "The Cat" suggests that instead of Kanyon continuing to run his mouth, why don't they just settle things right here, right now?!? "The Cat" says that he is sick of listening to Kanyon and Stacy run their mouths, he is sick of getting attacked from behind by a coward, and he's sick of watching a grown man running away from a fight when he's got no problem running his mouth. "The Cat" drops the mic and then he and Miss Jones make their way to the ring, but once again Kanyon backs off and heads up the ramp, wanting no part of "The Cat" despite his big words, as Tony Schiavone quickly points out. Clearly frustrated, "The Cat" gets on the mic again and says that if Kanyon isn't man enough to face him tonight, then maybe he'll be man enough to face him at New Blood Rising? "The Cat" says that Kanyon can't run forever and sooner or later he WILL get his ass whupped! "I have spoken!" declares "The Cat" before dropping the mic and heading to the back alongside Miss Jones. © </div></div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44117" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"> <img alt="NKRpVmw.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/NKRpVmw.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="apBZcci.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/apBZcci.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="9VqkZFJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9VqkZFJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />vs.<img alt="3WOT8i0.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/3WOT8i0.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="yjZhkPT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/yjZhkPT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="O0I3vYs.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/O0I3vYs.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />w/<img alt="xwUJi96.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/xwUJi96.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Six man cruiserweight tag team action is up next as Disco Inferno, Chavo Guerrero Jr. and Cash take on Lash Leroux, AJ Styles and Jamie Knoble. This is a decent match that gives up a little glimpse into what the future might hold for the cruiserweight division in WCW as both AJ Styles and Jamie Knoble show flashes of brilliance in this one. Still, there is just too much talent on the other team and it is Disco Inferno who picks up the win for his team, hitting the Last Dance on Lash Leroux and securing the pinfall, adding another victory to his impressive run as of late. Disco Inferno, Chavo Guerrero Jr. and Cash defeated Lash Leroux, AJ Styles and Jamie Knoble at 5.07 by pinfall when Disco pinned Leroux following a Last Dance © Disco Inferno gets on the mic after the match and he notes what a great team he, Chavo and Cash just made...and then asks if perhaps they should repeat the success next week? Disco calls out Billy Kidman and Shane Helms... <img alt="DeMllKw.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/DeMllKw.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="TqDQ0Kz.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TqDQ0Kz.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="YJdjdt3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YJdjdt3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Who, after a short wait, come out from the back.

Once in the ring, it is Scott who does the talking, saying that it's time for Bischoff to make up his damn mind and pick an opponent for him at New Blood Rising because "The Big Bad Booty Daddy" doesn't wait for anybody, not even his freaks, so he sure as hell isn't gonna wait for Eric Bischoff! Scott tells Bischoff to get his ass down to the ring, but instead of Bischoff... <img alt="O6ChwMw.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/O6ChwMw.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> He gets none other than Booker T! Booker heads to the ring, gets on the mic, and says that he should be challenging for the World Title tonight, but since Bischoff won't do that then he's got a challenge for Steiner; "how bout you and me at New Blood Rising for a spot as War Games captain?!?" The crowd loves the prospect of seeing this rivalry renewed, and the sight of Scott Steiner and Booker T standing nose to nose in the ring, but the cheers turn to boos when... <img alt="sSiM1MW.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/sSiM1MW.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Eric Bischoff finally makes his way out from the back. Bischoff remains at the top of the entrance ramp as he books a huge match for next week; Booker T versus Rick Steiner... and if Booker wins...he faces Scott Steiner at New Blood Rising! Bischoff then drops the mic and heads to the back as Tony repeats what we all just heard; Booker T versus Rick Steiner next week on Monday Nitro!

DDP thinks about it for a moment and then he says that he knows Bischoff doesn't want him to get his shot, and he knows that Bischoff wants nothing more than to drive a wedge between him and Nash and Savage--but it's not gonna happen. Page calls Nash and Savage his brothers and he'll fight side by side with them any day and tonight...well, tonight they make their own immediate futures look a little bit brighter. Page says that he's used to fighting for every single thing he's ever gotten and tonight is no different--in fact, Page says that he wouldn't want it any other way. Oh, and Jeff Jarrett?

Despite Storm's presence at ringside, Konnan does manage to turn the match around and he eventually picks up the win by forcing Skipper to submit with the Ziplock in a decent match. Konnan defeated Elix Skipper at 5.55 by submission with the Ziplock © Konnan gets on the mic after the match and he tells Lance Storm that since it was no problem for him to come down to the ring and stick his nose into his business, it should be no problem for him to step into the ring with Konnan right now! Konnan motions for Storm to enter the ring, but his words and his gestures fall on deaf ears, however, as Storm simply walks off, evidently not planning on squaring off with Konnan tonight, which leads Tony Schiavone to note that Storm only seems to be interested in a fight when he can jump someone from behind.

Flair enters the ring, gets on the mic, and proceeds to get straight to the point; Flair issues an open challenge for anyone to step up and face him next week on Nitro. Flair says that it doesn't matter who you are--if you want to step into the ring with "The Nature Boy", if you think you've got what it takes to beat the man, or if you're just some punk who thinks that he can get away with disrespecting him...whoever you are, the open challenge stands because "The Nature Boy" is getting back on track and it all starts next week!

This is another decent match on a night that has been full of them so far, but the finish does not come without some controversy as Yang, after having been isolated and made a spirited comeback, goes to make the hot tag to Kaz Hayashi...only to find that Hayashi isn't there--he's down on the floor arguing with "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan about Duggan's presence at ringside. This allows Shawn Stasiak to pull Yang back to their corner and tag in Mark Jindrak, who puts Yang away with the Mark of Perfection to pick up the win. Mark Jindrak and Shawn Stasiak defeated The Jung Dragons at 6.54 by pinfall when Jindrak pinned Yang following a Mark of Perfection (C-) The match is over and Kaz Hayashi is furious at "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, who he blames for causing them to lose the match. Duggan tries to explain and apologize, but then Mike Sanders gets in Duggan's face and taunts him while Stasiak and Jindrak sneak up from behind. Sanders tells Duggan to get the hell out of his ring and the three of them then attack Duggan and Kaz Hayashi until... <img alt="rxMZSbm.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rxMZSbm.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="1S9VfKR.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/1S9VfKR.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Chuck Palumbo and Sean O'Haire come running down the entrance ramp! They enter the ring and a stand-off ensues as Mike Sanders gets between Palumbo and O'Haire and Jindrak and Stasiak and tells Palumbo and O'Haire to think about what they talked about, and whatever that means, it appears to have an effect as we don't get a physical confrontation between these two sides, much to the confusion of both announcers and fans alike. It does, however, bring the beatdown of "Hacksaw" and Kaz to an end.

Jeff Jarrett says that tonight he and "The Total Package" take care of two birds with one stone--or technically three--as they eliminate DDP as a challenger for the World Title AND Nash and Savage as challengers for the Tag Team Titles. Jarrett says that Page has bit off more than he can chew and tonight he's going to choke on it! Lex Luger says that Totally Buff are the Tag Team Champions for a reason--because they're totally the greatest tag team in the business today and Nash and Savage don't hold a candle to them. As they turn to leave, Buff Bagwell brags to Gene that The Chosen Ones are chosen for a reason and people like Page, Nash and Savage..well, they just don't matter anymore!

The match does not fail to deliver as it goes back and forth throughout, with plenty of interference attempts from Buff Bagwell, but every time he tries to get involved the "Macho Man" is right there to put a stop to it. At one point the referee is accidentally knocked out and the World Champion immediately tries to capitalize on it by going for his Acoustic Equalizer, but all he gets for his troubles is a big boot planted right in his face by "Big Sexy" Kevin Nash! Finally, everything breaks down when Buff Bagwell and Randy Savage start brawling at ringside and all four competitors in the match are going at it in the ring. <img alt="Gc4aCsx.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Gc4aCsx.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> And that is when Mike Awesome suddenly comes down to ringside and helps Buff Bagwell get the upper hand against Randy Savage, and the two of them drive Savage back-first into the guard rail while Tony and Mike both wonder why Mike Awesome is helping The Chosen Ones here? Bagwell and Awesome then enter the ring and a four on two fight ensues, forcing the referee to call for the disqualification. The Insiders defeated Jeff Jarrett and Lex Luger at 16.26 by disqualification when Buff Bagwell and Mike Awesome got involved (B+) As The Chosen Ones and Mike Awesome continue to beat the Insiders down in the ring, Tony Schiavone wonders why they would do this when they knew it would get them disqualified, but Mike Tenay says that it won't matter if DDP, Nash and Savage have title shots at New Blood Rising if they won't be able to compete, which is exactly what The Chosen Ones are trying to ensure here with the help of that damned Mike Awesome! "Macho Man" is stirring at ringside, but Mike Awesome leaves the ring to deal with him as Jarrett, Luger and Bagwell continue to beat Page and Nash down. Jarrett then grabs his guitar again and things look bad for the Insiders, but then the lights in the building suddenly go out, and when they come down on a few moments later... <img alt="7PSSM69.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/7PSSM69.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> STING IS STANDING IN THE RING!!!!!!! The crowd absolutely explodes and Jarrett, Luger and Bagwell can't believe their eyes! After a long, intense moment, the Tag Team Champions decide to attack, but Sting pulls his bat out from under his coat and he makes short work of both Luger and Bagwell, driving the bat into the midsection of each of them while the Jeff Jarrett quickly scrambles out of the ring! Luger and Bagwell roll out of the ring as well and they retreat back up the ramp alongside the World Champion. The dust is very much still settling here, but Diamond Dallas Page has a stipulation to pick for his World Title match, Kevin Nash and Randy Savage has a Tag Title shot, and Sting is back in WCW as Monday Nitro comes to an end!

I appreciate the comments and I'm very happy to have Sting back myself. I was looking for just the right time to bring him back and I believe this was it.

Also, I've got Nitro almost completely written so it will be posted tomorrow.

Bagwell has his tag team partner and other half of the Tag Team Champions, "The Total Package" Lex Luger, at ringside with him and Luger acts as a constant distraction for Rhodes as ringside, but even though he does receive a warning from the referee at one point, Luger is smart enough to not get himself sent to the back. This is a good match that comes to an end when Buff hits the Blockbuster on Rhodes, who walks right into it after being distracted by Luger, and Buff picks up the pinfall victory with a big time assist from his tag team partner. Buff Bagwell defeated Dustin Rhodes at 9.32 by pinfall with a Buff Blockbuster following a distraction from Lex Luger (B-) <img alt="YiAV5xv.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YiAV5xv.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="TTtujDA.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TTtujDA.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> The reigning WCW Tag Team Champions have worked together to steal another victory and they couldn't be prouder of themselves as they celebrate in the ring--that is, until the Wolfpac music suddenly hits and the crowd goes crazy as "Big Sexy" Kevin Nash and "Macho Man" Randy Savage walk out from the back. Bagwell and Luger are long gone by the time Nash and Savage get to the ring, however, but that doesn't stop "Big Sexy" and "The Macho Man" from getting on the mic. Nash speaks first and he says that Luger and Bagwell can only run for so long because after last week him and Mach got a guaranteed Tag Team Title shot coming up at New Blood Rising and then the so called Champs won't have anywhere left to run! Nash then hands the mic to Savage who says that he can see Luger and Bagwell freaking out and they should be because they are comin' for the Tag Team Titles and at New Blood Rising...they'll get them! Ooohhh yeah!!

The Dragons aren't having it, however, and they completely ignore Duggan's pleas, even going so far as to slam the door to their locker room in his face, leading to Duggan awkwardly claiming that he'll just come back later. As a dejected looking "Hacksaw" walks off down the hallway, Tony and Mike talk about the fact that Duggan's attempts at "helping" the Dragons have, so far, only led to trouble for them.

Disco has been on a roll lately and he has a Cruiserweight Championship title shot coming up at New Blood Rising, where "Sugar" Shane Helms is also set to finally get a one on one matchup against Cash. Chavo Guerrero Jr. does a lot of the work for his team early on in this one and Mike Tenay speculates if perhaps Chavo is trying to force his way back into the title picture by picking up a win here. The match is decent with a lot of back and forth action, but in the end it is Big Smooth who proves to be the difference in this one as he takes advantage of the referee losing control of the match by entering the ring and hitting a devastating powerslam on Alex Wright, who is then easy pickings for Disco Inferno who simply has to cover his former tag team partner to pick up the win. Disco Inferno, Chavo Guerrero Jr. and Cash defeated Alex Wright, Billy Kidman and Shane Helms at 8.21 by pinfall when Disco pinned Wright following interference from Big Smooth (C-) </div></div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44117" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"> <img alt="xeqPtl1.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/xeqPtl1.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> A frustrated Dustin Rhodes is walking backstage, shaking his head at the way he lost his match earlier against Buff Bagwell.

Once in the ring, Page gets on the mic and he immediately calls out the World Champion himself, saying that he wants to make this announcement face to face--that is, if Jarrett's got the guts to come down here. <img alt="9umPviH.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9umPviH.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> "The Chosen One" does emerge from the back--somewhat surprisingly on his own even--and warily approaches the ring. Jarrett refuses to actually enter the ring, however, opting instead to remain at the bottom of the entrance ramp. Page calls Jarrett's run as champion a disgrace, saying that he's had to rely on help from Bischoff, Luger and Bagwell to get the job done. Well, he's gonna have to get the job done on his own at New Blood Rising because the stipulation Page chooses for their match... is to have a special enforcer present at ringside during the match. But it's not gonna be just any enforcer--it's gonna be someone Page knows he can trust, someone who will do the right thing, someone who Jarrett, Bischoff and the rest of The Chosen Ones can't get to. And Page wants that special enforcer to be......STING!

Sting joins DDP in the ring while Jarrett runs a full lap around the ring to avoid Sting, and then heads back up to the top of the entrance ramp. In the ring, Sting gets on the mic and tells Jarrett that before he disappears into the back he should know that the Stinger plans to do everything he can to ensure a straight up one on one fight at New Blood Rising. Sting then turns to DDP and tells him that he's got his word on that and the two fan favorites shake hands in the ring. <img alt="sSiM1MW.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/sSiM1MW.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Eric Bischoff then makes his way out form the back with a mic of his own and stands next to Jarrett at the top of the entrance ramp. Bischoff says that while he can't do anything about DDP's choice of stipulation, he can make a match of his own for next week's Nitro--which is exactly what he is going to do. Bischoff says that he won't tell Page who he'll be facing just yet, but he can tell him that the Insiders WILL have a match next week on Nitro while The Chosen Ones will have the night off. Bischoff smirks, clearly satisfied with himself, then adds that as for Sting...he'll pay the price for what he did last week in due time--"and YOU have MY word on that, Sting!" Bischoff and Jarrett then return to the back as Tony drives home the fact that Jeff Jarrett will defend the World Heavyweight Championship against Diamond Dallas Page at New Blood Rising and Sting will serve as the special enforcer at ringside during the match.

Konnan seems to lose his cool during this one, however, insisting on going after Lance Storm, which leaves him wide open for a huge spinebuster from Mike Awesome. Awesome and Storm isolate Konnan and wear him down until Konnan is finally able to make the hot tag to "The Cat". As "The Cat" starts to clean house... <img alt="waG19mm.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/waG19mm.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Chris Kanyon makes his way down to ringside, much to Tony and Mike's disapproval as both men agree that Kanyon has no business being out here. As Kanyon approaches Miss Jones at ringside, "The Cat" ends up chasing Kanyon into the back, leaving Konnan alone with both Storm and Awesome. Even worse, "The Cat" is the legal man and he ends up getting counted out. Lance Storm and Mike Awesome defeated "The Cat" and Konnan at 10.48 by count out (C+) Before leaving the ring, Mike Awesome decides to hit the Awesome Bomb on Konnan before returning to the back, leaving Konnan completely defenseless against Lance Storm, who is looking to once again inflict damage on Konnan prior to their US Title match at New Blood Rising. But before Storm can apply the Canadian Maple Leaf this time... <img alt="qnDHH19.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/qnDHH19.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Rey Misterio Jr., once again donning a mask, sprints down to the ring, driving Storm off and saving his friend from Storm's evil intentions. As Storm retreats back up the ramp, Rey watches him carefully before attending to Konnan, who is still down and out in the ring. Rey is back, but what does this mean for the United States title picture?

This is a fine TV main event that tells the story of Booker T fighting against the odds and always having to contend with both Scott Steiner and Midajah at ringside as they distract and interfere on behalf of Rick. Still, despite their best efforts, Booker manages to overcome the odds as he knocks "Big Poppa Pump" off the apron, then ducks a Steinerline attempt from Rick Steiner, and then Booker catches "The Dog Faced Gremlin" with a Bookend for the three count and the win. Booker T is headed to New Blood Rising! Booker T defeated Rick Steiner at 11.44 by pinfall with a Bookend. Booker T advances to New Blood Rising to face Scott Steiner (B-) Having picked up the win, Booker T is smart enough to quickly leave the ring before the Steiner Brothers can attempt any kind of post match attack. And with a shot of Booker T walking victoriously back up the ramp, another edition of WCW Monday Nitro comes to an end. </div></div></blockquote> Final Show Rating: B+ TV Rating: 1.44 Show increased popularity in 10 regions

Good choice by DDP to put Sting in there, because WCW surely wouldn't be silly enough to try and turn him heel, right?! right?!?

Insiders - The real question is how soon will half of the NBT be heading to development.

Kanyon - Dustin's story with Crowbar goes a lot further if he keeps losing.

Ric Flair - This is a good way to both keep an aging Flair busy and build him into a bigger program.

Billy Kidman

Helms/Dragons - America's Most Jobbers

Eric Bischoff's "White Train" theme music then hits and the owner of WCW makes his way down to the ring to nothing but boos from the crowd, which only brings a smirk to Bischoff's face. Once in the ring, Bischoff says that he is out here to make a few announcements regarding tonight. One; The Chosen Ones have the night off just like he said last week. Two; The Insiders will be in action tonight...in a four on two handicap match against Sean O'Haire, Chuck Palumbo, Shawn Stasiak and Mark Jindrak and if the former Thrillers fail him again then their match WILL proceed as planned at New Blood Rising. And three; Lance Storm will defend the United States Championship against Konnan at New Blood Rising, and the winner of that match will defend the title the following night on Nitro against Rey Misterio Jr. Eric Bischoff just kicked off Nitro with some huge announcements!

Kanyon says that he's heading straight to the top and if there is one thing that guys like Dustin Rhodes and "The Cat" have in common...it's that neither of them are in the same league as Chris Kanyon!

That doesn't happen, however, as Kidman is too much for Funk to handle, despite his best efforts, and Kidman hits the Shooting Star Press and picks up the pinfall victory as he will be heading into New Blood Rising this Sunday night with a fresh win to his credit. Billy Kidman defeated Alan Funk at 6.07 by pinfall with a Shooting Star Press © <img alt="3WOT8i0.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/3WOT8i0.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Billy Kidman has picked up the win but as soon as the bell rings, Disco Inferno is in the ring and he grabs Kidman and hits the Last Dance, laying out the Champion just six days before their bout at New Blood Rising! Mike Tenay notes that, agree with his tactics or not, Disco Inferno has been as good as he's ever seen him in these past several weeks--if not better--and Kidman's reign as Cruiserweight Champion is in serious jeopardy at New Blood Rising.

Kanyon does manage to find his footing in this one, but it is an even match that goes back and forth throughout with both men picking up a couple of near-falls along the way. <img alt="t5bgsE2.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/t5bgsE2.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="GQpaxEc.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/GQpaxEc.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> "The Cat and Miss Jones are out from the back and the presence of "The Cat" gets the better of Kanyon, who allows himself to be distracted, which in turn allows Rhodes to catch him by surprise with a roll-up to pick up the victory.

Konnan says that Storm is taking a lot for granted and that he is worrying about things he don't even have to worry about because after he loses the title on Sunday he can just take Monday off. Rey then gets on the mic and says that Storm wants to talk about respect? After he did everything he possibly could to injure both Rey and Konnan? Rey says that Storm doesn't know the first thing about respect, and that while he wants nothing more than to get even with Storm for what he did right here and right now...unlike Storm, he's going to do it the right way.

Sanders says that he had to do a lot of convincing in order to get Eric Bischoff to give them one more chance, so they have to make sure they get the job done this time.

DDP speaks first and he says that it's just like Nash said last week; Bischoff is stacking the deck in favor of his guys, like always, but they're not too worried about it because they're used to it by now. Nash says that the so called Chosen Ones are running scared and they're hoping that the former Thrillers will take care of business for them, but just like this Sunday night...they'll be disappointed. Savage says that it may be a handicap match out there but he has the Insiders backs tonight and nothing is going to keep them from making it to New Blood Rising this Sunday and walking away with the gold!

This is a pretty short match with "Sugar" Shane Helms and the Dragons in control for almost its entirety, with Helms picking up the win for his team after hitting the Nightmare on Helms Street on James Storm. Shane Helms and the Jung Dragons defeated James Storm, Chris Harris and Johnny Swinger at 4.48 by pinfall when Helms pinned Storm following a Nightmare on Helms Street (D+) <img alt="O0I3vYs.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/O0I3vYs.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="xwUJi96.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/xwUJi96.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Cash and Big Smooth hit the ring after the match, looking to inflict some damage on Shane Helms. But what they probably weren't counting on is that the Jung Dragons and "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan are there to back Helms up and Cash and Smooth have no choice but to retreat. For once it looks like "Hacksaw" and the Jung Dragons are on the same page here, but will it last?

The Mamalukes are out to accept the challenge and it is Big Vito who faces Flair, with Johnny The Bull watching at ringside. The match is nothing special, in part due to the fact that Flair appears to be phoning in his performance, but "The Nature Boy" does pick up the win as he pins Vito while Flair's feet are on the ropes, proving once again that he is "The Dirtiest Player In The Game". Ric Flair defeated Big Vito at 8.03 by pinfall when Flair pinned Vito while his feet were on the ropes (C-) </div></div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44117" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"> <img alt="Z1DlA0N.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Z1DlA0N.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="7PSSM69.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/7PSSM69.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Following Flair's cheap win, Tony sends us to what he informs us is a pre-taped sit-down interview with the man who will serve as the special enforcer for the World Heavyweight Championship title match between Jeff Jarrett and Diamond Dallas Page this Sunday night at New Blood Rising; Sting. "Mean" Gene is conducting the interview and he asks Sting about his absence from WCW as well as his return. Sting says that coming back to WCW is the greatest feeling he's had in a long time and, like always, he's back to make a difference. Sting says that he has a lot of respect for Eric Bischoff for saving WCW, but that Bischoff needs to realize that doing things the same old way he did before...it's not going to work. Sting says that the Chosen Ones have been running rampant since WCW came back, doing whatever they want, but Sting vows that at New Blood Rising, DDP will have the level playing field that has been talked about so much in WCW these past few years. Sting finishes by saying that now that he's back...it's once again SHOWTIME folks!

With "Macho Man" Randy Savage and Mike Sanders both at ringside as well, this match has all the potential in the world to spin completely out of control, which of course it does. Savage keeps Sanders in check, but it's still four on two in the ring and the former Thrillers aren't big on tagging in and out, which often means that all six competitors are in the ring at the same time, and Page and Nash each have to contend with two opponents at once. <img alt="9umPviH.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9umPviH.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="epiwJ9r.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/epiwJ9r.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="tjPJopW.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tjPJopW.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Things go from bad to worse when The Chosen Ones "surprisingly" appears and joins the fight, and even though the referee finally calls for the disqualification, it is not much of a victory for the Insiders as they now face a two on seven fight. The Insiders defeated Sean O'Haire, Chuck Palumbo, Shawn Stasiak and Mark Jindrak at 9.39 by disqualification when The Chosen Ones got involved (B-) "Macho Man" Randy Savage hits the ring to help out Page and Nash, but Mike Sanders joins the fight as well and now it is three on eight out there. Page, Nash and Savage are fighting for all they are worth, but the numbers are firmly against them here. <img alt="7PSSM69.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/7PSSM69.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Sting then runs out from the back, black baseball bat in hand, and he comes to the aid of the Insiders and Savage, and Monday Nitro goes old school as the show comes to an end with a HUGE brawl taking place in the ring and Tony Schiavone reminding everyone to tune in to WCW New Blood Rising this Sunday night only on pay per view! (A) </div></div></blockquote> Final Show Rating: B TV Rating: 1.41 Show increased popularity in 10 regions <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44117" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> News and Notes Post-Nitro There were a few noteworthy incidents during and after the final episode of Monday Nitro before New Blood Rising: While it has been well known for a while now that "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair was unhappy about his current position in the company ever since he was asked to put Rey Misterio Jr. over in a match for the United States Championship, this was the first time Flair has allowed his unhappiness to affect his in-ring performances. The feeling was that Flair was barely even trying during his match against Big Vito, and Flair's lack of professionalism during the match has raised some concerns among the higher-ups of WCW. The general feeling is that management still have plans for Flair, but that he isn't exactly helping himself with this kind of behavior. The other big backstage story coming out of this Nitro concerns an injury that Mark Jindrak suffered during the main event. Reports indicate that Jindrak sustained some broken ribs after a botched move by Kevin Nash which has led to some tension between the two of them. The injury is expected to slow Jindrak down a bit for the next few weeks, but the feeling is that it is nothing too serious and that he won't be missing any time because of it. We are also getting reports that both Jeff Jarrett and Chuck Palumbo have tested positive for sterioids in recent weeks, and both men have received stern warnings about this. "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner has gotten some heat with the rest of the locker room after he bragged to everyone who would listen--and to those who wouldn't--about how much money he is making in WCW. Management gave Scott a slap on the wrist as the feeling was that this wasn't a major issue, but still something they would rather be without. In other, more positive news, "The Total Package" Lex Luger shared some funny road stories with the rest of the locker room which a lot of people seemed to both enjoy and appreciate. </div></blockquote>
