1997: War of the Worlds

Pipers Pit · June 3, 2018

(Nitro is the bottom of the previous page) A recap video from Saturday Night’s Main Event opens the show, specifically spotlighting the contract signing between Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart and of course the main event cage match which saw Triple H become the new WWF Intercontinental Champion when outside enforcer Iron Mike Tyson inexplicably interfered, slamming the cage door into the head of Stone Cold Steve Austin just as he was about to leave the cage and retain his title.

Michaels and Triple H get in the ring and tell the audience that first off, it’s pretty clear now that DX rules the world because you’re looking at the two highest ranking champions in the business. Second, that won’t be changing after WrestleMania because he has it on very very good authority that Owen Hart won’t be making it to Boston. He motions to the Titantron and we see a pre recorded video of Michaels, Triple H, and Chyna, all looking down at something. When the camera pans down we see Owen Hart who is unconscious. They taunt him for a few moments before Chyna opens the trunk to a nearby car and they all pick up Hart and put him in before slamming the trunk. Triple H hands Chyna the keys and Michaels hands her a bag full of energy drinks, snacks, a road map and other goodies. They wish her well on her trip and she gets in and drives off as Michaels and Triple H fake crying and waving goodbye. When we cut back to the ring they’re laughing hysterically as JR shames them as kidnapers and cowards as Lawler says Owen is getting an all expense paid trip to see the country. Triple H says that nobody gets in the way of DX. They do what they want, when they want, and that will never ever change!

From military press slams to shoulder blocks to a huge avalanche in the corner. D’Lo is basically out on his feet when Henry slaps on the side headlock submission but suddenly Kama jumps in the ring and attacks Henry. When the referee calls for the bell the two members of the Nation put the boots to Henry before escaping. Winner by Disqualification: Mark Henry Grade: 56 </div></blockquote> <img alt="wimrOyq.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/wimrOyq.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> <img alt="1qZPUqg.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/1qZPUqg.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="mLSbjpc.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/mLSbjpc.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Following the commercial break the WWF Tag Team Champions are in their locker room. In the background an angry Billy Gunn is pacing and the Road Dogg addresses the camera. He asks if the Godwinns thought it was funny to humiliate them and almost kill them on Saturday. Well the Outlaws aren’t laughing. It’s time to show those hillbillies what happens when you step up to the champs. At WrestleMania their hog slopping, chicken feeding, sister kissing asses belong to the Outlaws and if you didn’t know that, your ass better call someone!

Anyone in his path becomes a victim of his anger as he throws officials, crew, and even the Headbangers who are in the wrong place at the wrong time. Finally security is able to wrangle him before he can make it to Vince McMahon. McMahon says if Austin is so upset about Saturday he can take it out in the ring against someone who’s just as mad as he is…Vader! Austin goes wild again but is restrained, telling McMahon that he wants Mike Tyson’s ass when he’s done.

The Rock is all over him, busting him in the corner with punches and kicks and smothering the smaller guy. Rock whips him to the other corner but Funk jumps up on the turnbuckles and soars with a cross body block but the Rock catches him and drops him down across his knee. For a moment the Rock begins to smirk but it fades as he measures Funk for a running knee drop. He finally delivers a Rock Bottom but picks up Funk’s head at the two count. He delivers another Rock Bottom and makes the cover for the win. Winner by Pinfall: The Rock Grade: 80 </div></blockquote> <img alt="wimrOyq.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/wimrOyq.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> <img alt="Juax5CP.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Juax5CP.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="VSXsQqK.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VSXsQqK.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> We see a pre taped sit down interview Jim Ross does with Mike Tyson. JR starts with a simple question….why? Tyson says that he’s loved wrestling since he was a kid and he was excited to be a part of the WWF but Steve Austin showed him nothing but disrespect. Well where Tyson is from if someone disrespects you, you do something about it. So he did what he had to do on Saturday Night in order to get where he needs to be. JR asks him what that means. Tyson says that he’ll be at RAW next week in person and he’s going to tell Steve Austin that if he wants to settle it, they can do it in the ring….at WrestleMania. JR says that it might be the biggest matchup in WrestleMania history but Tyson says it’ll also be the quickest because he’s going to knock Austin out faster than Michael Spinks.

Before Cole can even finish asking him about losing to Simon Landry, Vader grabs him by the neck and shoves him after ripping the microphone away. Vader says that it was a fluke but tonight he’s going to show the world who the man is because he gets Stone Cold in that ring and he’s going to finish what Tyson started because tonight’s it’s Vader Time. He throws the mic at Cole and stomps away.

Animal works over Skull, who makes a tag to 8-Ball. 8-Ball gets the same treatment, Hawk makes a blind tag and when Animal delivers a powerslam and puts 8-Ball on his shoulders with amazing strength, Hawk nails the Doomsday Device for the win. Winners by Pinfall: The Legion of Doom Grade: 70 </div></blockquote> <img alt="wimrOyq.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/wimrOyq.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> <img alt="EiA8duj.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/EiA8duj.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Yw5r6v9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Yw5r6v9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="FpQi1gV.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FpQi1gV.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> As the LOD get their hands raised, Ravishing Rick Rude comes out onto the stage. He says everyone makes mistakes and for old time’s sake he’s going to give his friends one more chance. He wants to take them back to the level they deserve. They just need to give him a chance. Hawk and Animal are shaking their heads watching him up on the stage. Rude begins to get angry and says he knows what they need. They need a wakeup call. They need a slap in their face. They need…..a rude Awakening. From the crowd two huge men jump the barrier and slip into the ring. <img alt="3WoDCvV.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/3WoDCvV.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="K8om2AL.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/K8om2AL.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> When Hawk and Animal turn around each of them are floored by a huge running boot to the face. As Rude smirks at the scene, Hawk is powerbombed by one of the men while Animal is manhandled by the other and thrown over the top rope. Both men return to Hawk and pick him up for another powerbomb but he’s not driven down, instead he’s held up and the second man positions the back of his head on his shoulder. They drive him down together in a combination neck breaker/sit down powerbomb. Both of these big men leave the ring and walk up the ramp to Rude and they exchange hi-fives and return to the back.

Cornette says he hasn’t seen him for hours but he knows he’s at the arena. We hear someone yelling for help and they all barge into a room where we see Tommy Rich laying on the floor wrapped up in barbed wire. They try to help him but he howls out in pain as Windham says he’s going to go get help and leaves. As Cornette and Bradshaw attend to Rich, Jarrett stands back with a horrified look as it dawns on him what he may be in for in a few weeks.

For his provocative actions he gets a solid right hand in the mouth. From that point the Undertaker is in firm control of the match but when he goes to walk the ropes, Goldust yanks down to the mat. Goldust spends the next several minutes working the deadman over, going for a few two count pinfalls, before finally hitting the Curtain Call. He blows kisses to Marlena but behind him the Undertaker sits up and snaps his head to him. When Goldust turns, Undertaker scoops him up and delivers a Tombstone for the win. Winner by Pinfall: The Undertaker Grade: 83 </div></blockquote> <img alt="wimrOyq.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/wimrOyq.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> <img alt="TIKf0Zl.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TIKf0Zl.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="vG2xh4U.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/vG2xh4U.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="4DHjTz0.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/4DHjTz0.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> As the Undertaker walks back up the ramp the lights go out, and Kane appears on the Titantron. He tilts his head to the side, as if studying his brother when suddenly a wall of fire shoots up through the floor in front of the Undertaker. Then another wall of flame behind him. Then we see Paul Bearer appear on the screen. He tells the Undertaker that at WrestleMania he’ll won’t rest in peace….he’ll burn in hell!

He tells someone that if they wanted to embarrass him on Saturday now fair is fair. We see Sable exiut the room and she’s wearing a black garbage bag with her arms and legs sticking out. She looks ashamed. Mero belittles her as they walk, telling her how terrible she looks, eventually she begins to sob when Mero comes face to face with Simon Landry. <img alt="LRqzmza.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/LRqzmza.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Landry tells him that he shouldn’t treat her like that. Mero says for Landry to get out of his face because he’s already beaten him. Landry says why don’t you try and do it again….at WrestleMania. Mero smirks and says he’ll gladly treat Landry like his new bitch. Mero walks off, yanking Sable behind him by the wrist.

JR says that it appears Owen is not going to press charges against DX because he doesn’t want to allow Michaels to weasel out of their title match at WrestleMania Grade: 88 <img alt="wimrOyq.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/wimrOyq.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> <img alt="YtFobLO.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YtFobLO.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Backstage in his office we see Vince McMahon when someone knocks on his door and a messenger brings a package in. McMahon takes it from the guy and opens it. It’s a bottle of scotch wrapped in a plaid ribbon and a note that says ‘See you next week.’ McMahon scowls, having an idea who this is from.

It’s worth noting that the Undertaker has never lost at WrestleMania but that winning streak is said to not factor into any creative plans. *Sunny’s contract will be coming up soon and there is real debate inside WWF if her good looks and sex appeal are worth the trouble she seems to cause. No word on how a possible departure would affect the Impact Players who seem to be floundering at the moment. *WWF has brought in several veterans in recent weeks as seen this week with the return of the Quebecers with the intent of having current talent learn in the ring. Paul Diamond, Tatanka, and others will let the next generation learn from some of the best in ring talents of a generation according to company officials. Other than random spots on B-shows, it’s unlikely any of these veterans will be on RAW or pay per views. *WWF is considering creating a new title perhaps as early as this summer which reportedly will be centered around hardcore wrestling. *While WrestleMania 14’s lineup is set, sources high up in WWF say WrestleMania 15’s possible main event is “startling,” “a game changer,” and as one McMahon confidant described it, “no joke, the biggest match of all time.” *WWF executives had a long meeting with USA network executives related to a segment on this upcoming week’s RAW. No word on details at this time but they apparently felt it best to give the network a heads up. *While most media analysts and wrestling dirtsheets are chalking up Tyson’s involvement in WrestleMania 14 as a standard one-off ala Lawrence Taylor, some say there is a chance that with Tyson’s boxing future in limbo especially in the mecca of Las Vegas that he may have a longer tenure in the WWF. Certainly not full time but a multiple event contract is not out of the realm of possibility. *WCW is gearing up for the Spring Break Out show this Monday in a big way. WCW personalities have been on MTV promoting the show with Hall, Nash & Syxxx appearing on "MTV's Springer Break" as part of their spring break programming. Other WCW stars including Booker T, Rey Mysterio & Eddie Guerrero have appeared on MTV programming that was pretaped prior to this weekend. *WCW has a special house show in Canada titled "Canadian Invasion" that will happen on Saturday. The show is expected to be headlined by Bret Hart. Following the show, the entire crew will then fly directly to Panama City Beach for this Monday's show. *The plan is for the Bret Hart vs Diamond Dallas Page #1 contender match to open Nitro. *WCW sources have said that Hollywood Hulk Hogan is NOT the expected surprise return that has been promised by Eric Bischoff. But, Hogan has been spotted in and around town this week and is expected to meet with Eric Bischoff on Sunday. *Speaking of Eric Bischoff, he and Scott Steiner got into a loud argument following Nitro last week. Apparently Rick Steiner was injured in a minor injury to his ankle during the tag team title match with The Hardys. Scott reportedly blew a gasket backstage and screamed at Bischoff to fire the young team. Bischoff refused and reminded Scott Steiner that he injured Booker T at SuperBrawl in the course of the match where Harlem Heat had to retire. Booker's injury was also minor and no heat was placed on Scott and from WCW's perspective, Scott completely overreacted. He stormed out of the show and we are told a meeting is planned between Bischoff and Scott Steiner before Nitro this week in Panama City Beach. *The Nasty Boys have recently come to terms on a new deal with WCW as part of the new push to revitalize the tag team division. *Bunkhouse Buck impressed WCW enough that the expectation is that they will offer him a contract to return full time to the company. *The recent talent swap between WCW and New Japan has been cooled for a bit before WCW has the Japan Supershow in April. </div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="QO0hDYb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/QO0hDYb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> WWF Shotgun Saturday Night A video package hyping the actions of Goldust in injuring Ahmed Johnson was shown.

We get a special video package on the history of Bret Hart since coming to WCW and interwoven with the history of DDP. All of this merges together as "Cinnaburst presents: WCW Spring Break Out 1998". The normal Nitro opening is shown and then fireworks are shot in the air around the ocean as Club LaVela is alive and poppin for WCW Spring Break Out. The announcers put over whether or not Sting will be on hand to accept the challenge of Kevin Nash and defend the WCW World Heavyweight Title tonight. But, we go to the ring with our opening match and it is for the right to be the #1 contender for the WCW World Heavyweight Title...its Diamond Dallas Page vs Bret "Hitman" Hart LIVE on Nitro.] Grade: 74 ============================ <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Match #1: Diamond Dallas Page vs Bret "Hitman" Hart with the Winner Challenging for the World Heavyweight Title in the Main Event at Spring Stampede <img alt="SpX2q4M.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/SpX2q4M.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> [Following the match, as Hart celebrates Page gets up and stands behind Hart. We've seen this before as Page sizes someone up for the Diamond Cutter and when Hart turns around he flinches, clearly expecting it. But Page doesn't move for a moment or two and when he does it's to offer his hand. Hart shakes it and then hugs him to the delight of the crowd. Team WCW is united headed into Uncensored and Page supports Hart challenging for the title at Spring Stampede.] Grade: 75 </div> </div></blockquote> [============================ [Mean Gene is hanging with some college students near the bar area. He is quite popular with them. "We're having a blast here in Panama City but there is a major wrestling company that is not having such a good time right now. Turns out that despite their claims, an upcoming "major" pay per view is anything but sold out. Expectations are it will take alot of free tickets to fill their big night for pay per view. Right now on the WCW Hotline, I have all the details and boy, I'll tell you, there are alot of nervous people up there. Call the WCW Hotline 1-900-909-9900. The call cost a $1.99 a minute, kids get your parents permission before calling but call right now. Stick with us here on Nitro, we're on Spring Break and we're coming back in just a few moments with more action. Stay with us, we're LIVE on TNT."

We see Eric Bischoff (in a neck brace), Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and Syxxx step out. They are high fiving and talking about what a big night this is for the Wolfpac. They high five fans and Nash grabs a beer from one as they head to the production area.

He is so obnoxious about it and doesnt see that La Parka was annoyed. La Parka goes outside and grabs a chair and comes back in and as Guido still carries on, the Chairman of WCW flattens the Sicilian before doing a little dance and walking off.

Immediately he attacks Benoit but, the Crippler is able to defend himself. They brawl to the floor where Elizabeth sneaks up on Chris with mace. Benoit turns just in time and takes it from her hand and she is scared to death and backs up away from him. She keeps backing up the ramp when out of nowhere, WOMAN, has made her return to WCW and is blocking Elizabeth's path. Liz looks back and forth at both of them and is scared to death and finally realizes the only way out is down. She climbs over the railing and jumps into the pool to escape. As Nitro goes to commercial, Elizabeth is swimming away while the fans are going crazy having clearly enjoyed that.

He is on a program that was his vision and at an event that he created. And here tonight, in the main event of that program, the Wolfpac - the nWo - will take back their world title because Kevin Nash will challenge for the WCW World Heavyweight Title here tonight. Now, so far, no one has seen the chump champion. And there really aren't a whole lot of rafters for he to be hiding from here tonight so, heres the deal. Sting will either show up to lose that title like a man or he will lose the title like a loser. Because this match IS sanctioned, it WILL happen and should Sting fail to show up..the referee will disqualify him and award Kevin Nash the World Heavyweight Title. But, thats here tonight. No matter what happens in the main event tonight, there is another main event coming up in 12 days at Uncensored. Its the New York City Street Fight between Sting, Hart and Page against Nash, Hall and Syxxx. New York City? Damn, that's good. And that match needs a big attraction because New York City is a major media market. And who better to attract all of the attention that weekend than a major star. So, ladies and gentlemen, please allow me to introduce to you, the special manager of the Wolfpac at Uncensored....the Bad Boy of the NBA....welcome back to the nWo...DENNIS RODMAN! Rodman comes out and he is surrounded by beautiful spring break women. Behind him are Nash, Hall and Syxxx and they are also with women of their own. Rodman gets into the ring as does the Wolfpac and its an nWo party in the ring as they fling beach balls at the crowd. Bischoff says, now *that* is an entrance. And in 12 days, the nWo, will decimate WCW's heroes. And they will it in style. Because when you're nWo.. you're just...(Rodman finishes) toooo sweeeeeeet! The boys all celebrate and high five as the announcers are disgusted and say the ante has been raised.

Eddie is left seething.] Grade: 78 </div> </div></blockquote> ============================ [booker T is with Mean Gene at the Nitro set and Booker tells us that Scott Steiner has shown himself to be a coward. He has proven himself to not be a man, attacking people from behind and winning matches like a sucka. But in 13 days at Uncensored, there is no place to run. There is no place to hide. Scott Steiner is going to have to meet Booker T in the ring and on that night the world will see what a fruit booty he is. Now can you dig that? Gene tells us to stay with us because when we come back Da Man, Goldberg, will team with The Hardys against the Flock and still to come, apparently, is the World Heavyweight Title match.

He is looking around for Sting but is completely cocky as he steps into the ring. In a replay of last week's main event, Bischoff is out and he is ordering the ref to start the count as Sting doesn't appear to be there. Suddenly there is a loud noise and a fierce wind begins to blow. At the six count, the rotors of a helicopter can be heard and Sting's music begins playing. Nash and Bischoff look up and see Sting in a helicopter that has emerged from the darkness. The helicopter hovers over the ring sending mats and ring skirts flying everywhere and nearly blows Bischoff over the railing and into the pool. Sting repels down as the announcers tell us "Incredibly, Sting has arrived. The title match is on.

This brings out Bret Hart and DDP and the fight is on. Rodman proves the difference maker as he sneaks up and wallops Page, then Hart and then Sting again just as Sting fights back. The last image of WCW Spring Break Out is Nash (with the belt), Syxxx, Hall, Rodman and Bischoff with their arms in victory standing over Hart, Page and Sting as Nitro goes off the air.

Double Post

Pipers Pit · June 14, 2018

We see a recap video from last week specifically highlighting Owen Hart’s ‘kidnapping’, the Legion of Doom being assaulted by a pair of huge newcomers, the interview JR did with Mike Tyson and then Tyson’s surprise appearance and knockout of Stone Cold Steve Austin Grade: 90 <div style="text-align:center;"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="<a href="https://www.youtube.com/embed/a84XAkQziYo?rel=0" rel="external nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/embed/a84XAkQziYo?rel=0"</a> frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div> <img alt="5bJ1Ac1.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/5bJ1Ac1.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="AHMb2hh.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AHMb2hh.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Immediately we’re taken to the back where a massive brawl is underway. At it’s center is none other than Stone Cold Steve Austin and Mike Tyson. It seems half the locker room along with security and WWF officials are trying to pry them apart. They finally succeed in seperating them, aiding Tyson back to a waiting limo which speeds off when he’s placed inside. The look on Austin’s face confirms that he’s accepting Tyson’s challenge for WrestleMania to the surprise of no one. Grade: 91 <img alt="wimrOyq.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/wimrOyq.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> <img alt="9IQREL9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9IQREL9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Owen Hart comes down to the ring. He says what DX did to him last week was cowardly and exposed them for what the world already knows. They’re scared. They know at WrestleMania he’s going to take that WWF Championship from Shawn Michaels so they did the worst thing they could think of to make him press charges and cancel the match. Well that won’t work there’s nothing they can do to make him throw away the opportunity he’s been waiting his whole life for! <img alt="rrPX9e2.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rrPX9e2.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="GDGiR58.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/GDGiR58.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Suddenly the Titantron flickers on and we see mostly darkness but the camera in first person mode in nearing a house. Shawn Michaels and Triple H are the narrators, trying to keep their voices down but almost can’t stop laughing. Michaels apologizes and says he and Hunter won’t be there tonight because they’re off doing a little recon…some opposition research for WrestleMania. As they near the house a few lights are on and the camera peeks into the window and through the blinds we see a blonde woman tucking a little boy into bed. She kisses the top of his head and leaves the room. They walk around the house and peer into another window which appears to be a bedroom. By now Owen is livid but he’s also helpless as DX watches the same blonde woman walk into the room, and unaware of their presence begins picking out a nightgown. Like two twelve year old boys they snicker and make some remarks. As she appears to begin undressing, the camera turns to Michaels up close and he says that Owen can say whatever he wants but tonight DX is gonna do…what they do best. We hear Triple H off camera giving play by play of presumably the woman undressing. Then the video cuts out. Owen makes a beeline for the back as JR says how completely disgusting these two are.

Van Dam is feeling it, but as he climbs to the top, Jeff Jarrett runs down and shoves him off the top causing a disqualification.

Hart is irate and says that he wants DX next week and if any of them so much as look at his family Vince won’t have to worry about WrestleMania because he’ll break both their legs on the spot. He releases McMahon and storms off as the yes men attend of McMahon.

When Goldust turns around Johnson blasts him with a series of right hands, knocking him back into the corner. He whips Goldust across the ring to the other corner and Goldust flips up over the turnbuckles to the outside.

Lawler says the Undertaker is in deep trouble, like 6 feet deep because Kane is going to bury the Undertaker no doubt about it.

As Bearer speaks, Kane is in the background already digging half way down into a grave. Bearer says that in two weeks the Undertaker will meet his demise at the hands of his brother Kane. He says this has been a long time coming and that is why they’re in that cemetery. You see these are the graves of the parents of the Undertaker and Kane and at WrestleMania Bearer wants them to have a front row seat when Kane sends the Undertaker down into the lake of fire where he belongs and once and for all he’ll be gone! Gone!! Gone!!! He laughs maniacally as Kane keeps digging.

He starts screaming at McMahon saying that he knows he’s behind this but he’s going to cost Vince a lot of money. Say goodbye to the big WrestleMania moment because next week he’d gonna send Mike Tyson to the hospital…or the morgue. McMahon, wide eyed, tells Austin it’ll be the last thing he ever does.

Finally we get Landry tagged in versus Mero and the two begin going at it. Mero ditches to the outside and Landry follows with Mero slowing him down by literally throwing Sable in Landry’s path. When they get back in the ring, Mero takes advantage by being the first in. The Outlaws get tagged in and they work him over but Landry makes the tag to Phinneas and he begins to clean house until Mero hits a low blow. It’s a perfect setup for the Outlaws to hit a spike piledriver for the win.

As soon as the bell rings the behemoths from the Awakening are in charge and JR lets us know that one of them is named Mike Awesome and the other may look familiar as he used to be called Adam Bomb but his name is Bryan Clarke and he’s known as one of the most unpredictable men in the business. Mosh and Thrasher don’t get in one move of offense and just get decimated until Mosh is positioned for a powerbomb by Awesome when Clarke comes in and catches him on the way down delivering a neckbreaker as well. Rude just smirks at ringside during the whole match and gets in the ring to raise his men’s hands when the bell rings.

He throws the Rock into the ring and begins teeing off on him with right hands, followed by a series of dropkicks, clotheslines, and other high energy moves. When the Rock takes a powder to the outside to talk to D’Lo, Owen smashes their heads together and pulls the Rock back into the ring. The Rock begins to make a comeback and takes the match over with the aid of his other members of the Nation who distract and give a cheap shot every time they can. Suddenly Mankind carrying a chair makes his way down the ramp. The Nation blocks the way but a few swings send D’LO, Kama, and even Farooq to the floor. The Rock sees this as he’s midway through the People’s Elbow. Owen makes use of the distraction and pulls the Rock in for a schoolboy while he’s fixated on Mankind for the win.

Piper says it’s not him he wants. You see, when he came back to the WWF with a very lucrative contract there was a provision in there and he asks McMahon if he remembers what it is and the look on McMahon’s face says he does. Piper continues that he is invoking that clause which allows him to cash in a one time only guarantee of a WrestleMania match against an opponent of his choosing…and he’s choosing Triple H. McMahon begins to protest but Piper says if he has a problem with it, he can take it up with his lawyer before turning and walking out. As the show ends, JR questions how Triple H will respond and Lawler says Piper better pay up his life insurance because his family may need it. Grade: 89 Overall: 90

WCW Canadian Invasion

Saturday Week 3, March, 1998 – PEPS Stadium; Quebec City, Quebec - Sold Out

*The Steiners def Russ & Charlie Haas in a WCW World Tag Team Title match when Scott forces Charlie to tap out to the Steiner Recliner

*Rey Mysterio def Guido in a WCW Cruiserweight Title Match

Curt Hennig gets on the mic and promises that in seven days he will regain his United States Title

*Goldberg def local worker Nelson Veilleux (very big man)

Nash and Syxxx come out and run down Hart and put over Hall. This leads to an impromptu challenge that has been accepted with Diamond Dallas Page against Syxxx.

*Syxxx def DDP when Nash interferes

*The Hardys def Devon Storm & Cibernetico

Right after their win, Ric Flair's theme is heard and the crowd comes to life as The Nature Boy makes a unannounced return. He tells Quebec that he wanted to be here to watch Bret Hart beat the crap out of Scott Hall and he wanted to tell the great Canadian fans that, though he is still injured, he is recovering every single day. And one day, soon, he will return and make Shane Douglas pay. Douglas thought he got the best of Ric Flair but, Flair will take him to school. Wooooooo.

*Bret Hart def Scott Hall by submission

After the win, some members of the extended Hart family as well as Bret's kids come into the ring. Some WCW babyfaces come down as well and the Canadian crowd salutes Bret while he thanks them for welcoming him back to Canada with open arms. He asks them to make the trek to Calgary in about one month for Spring Stampede because, in his hometown, The Excellence of Execution will be come the World Heavyweight Champion because he is The Best There Is, The Best There Was, and the Best That There Ever Will Be.

WCW thanks the fans for this show and says good night.

As reported last week, tensions between him and WCW management hit a boiling point after several months of strained relations. A meeting was held prior to Nitro between Steiner and Eric Bischoff and an agreement was put in place for Steiner to depart WCW. The announced match between Scott Steiner and Booker T for Uncensored will take place but no word yet on what will happen to the tag team titles. For what its worth, Rick Steiner is expected to remain in WCW. As for the future of Scott, internally WCW expects Steiner to receive an offer from the World Wrestling Federation. *WCW is excited about the finalized card for Uncensored which will air from the sold out Nassau Coliseum in Long Island the night before Wrestlemania. The expectation is of the two announced title matches (the Cruiserweight title and the US title) at least one title will switch hands at the ppv. *WCW was very happy with the reception to WCW Canadian Invasion from Quebec. The special house show drew just under 10,000 fans for what is WCW's first Canadian show since Bret Hart came into the company. They feel it is a positive sign for Spring Stampede which will air from Calgary. WCW will run Nitro in Canada the night after Spring Stampede and ticket information will be announced soon for that event. *For those wondering why the Television Title hasnt been mentioned in months or defended, it is because WCW has made the decision to quietly retire the title. Eric Bischoff feels that the Television Title is too retro and too much like the old Jim Crockett days of the company and with four titles, the company is on solid ground. *Ric Flair's appearance at Canadian Invasion was a one time appearance for now. There aren't creative plans for Flair's return to television in the near future. *Expect The Giant to return to WCW storylines in the near future after being off television for most of this year. *Goldust was injured during the attack by Ahmed Johnson on RAW and then exacerbated it during a match on Shotgun Saturday Night’s taping against the Patriot. He’ll be missing WrestleMania which comes as a crushing blow but is expected back in a few weeks. *With a total of nine matches for WrestleMania 14, WWF has let the pay per view providers know the show may be running about 3 ½ hours. The main event is expected to go at least 25 minutes. *The next Hell in a Cell match is penciled in for June’s King of the Ring event in Pittsburgh. No word yet who may be in it. *Ken Shamrock’s MMA schedule won’t allow him to return to about Summerslam. *Expect to see some roster moves both incoming and outgoing following WrestleMania through April and May. *The WWF will be announcing a new Commissioner on the RAW after WrestleMania. </div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="QO0hDYb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/QO0hDYb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> WWF Shotgun Saturday Night - A video package hyping the WWF Tag Team Championship match this Sunday between the New Age Outlaws and the Godwinns was shown. -The Impact Players defeated Nick Dinsmore and Rob Conway - A video package hyping the WWF Intercontinental Championship match this Sunday between Triple H and Rowdy Roddy Piper was shown. -Goldust defeated the Patriot - A video package hyping the WWF World Heavyweight Championship match this Sunday between Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart was shown. -Faarooq defeated Bob Holly Overall: 82 </div></div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="EgBdJuV.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/EgBdJuV.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> WWF Heat -A video package hyping the WWF Intercontinental Championship match this Sunday between Triple H and Rowdy Roddy Piper was shown. -The Impact Players defeated the Quebecers - A video package hyping the ‘Once in a Generation’ match this Sunday between Stone Cold Steve Austin and Iron Mike Tyson was shown. -Simon Landry defeated the Great Sasuke - A video package hyping the WWF World heavyweight Championship match this Sunday between Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart was shown. -Faarooq defeated Savio Vega Overall: 79 </div> </div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZnLSKAdcFHs/T-FK-kFNAPI/AAAAAAAAFCM/J6MIzfyNpxI/s1600/vlcsnap-2012-06-19-23h00m27s129.png WCW Saturday Night Saturday Week 3, March, 1998 –Pontchartrain Center – Kenner, Louisiana *Goldberg def Brad Armstrong A video looking at the Triangle Match for the US Title is shown A video interview with Bret Hart is aired where he promises team WCW will seek revenge on the Wolfpac *Guido def Robbie Brookside *Syxxx def Barry Horrowitz *Jeff Hardy def Kidman Show Grade: 75</div> </div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="uGoIC7t.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/uGoIC7t.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> WCW World Wide Sunday Week 3, March, 1998 –Pontchartrain Center – Kenner, Louisiana *Guido def Cibernitico *Raven def Barry Horowitz Woman and Chris Benoit are interviewed backstage and she says that she will be with Benoit at Uncensored.

Last week on Nitro, Sting defeated Kevin Nash in a title defense but the night would belong to the Wolfpac. At the conclusion of the evening, Dennis Rodman (who had returned to the nWo earlier that night) used Sting's own baseball bat to down WCW's heroes. With five days remaining until the night of no rules and the six man main event street fight, how will Sting, Bret Hart & DDP respond? Speaking of Hart & Page, they had a classic last week to determine the #1 contender to the WCW title. That victory went to the Hitman but this week on Nitro, they have to put that aside when Bret Hart & DDP team up against Syxxx & Scott Hall in the main event. With so much on the line in NYC, what will happen when these four stars collide? In five days, Scott Steiner will take on Booker T at Uncensored but, the Steiners will be in action this week on Nitro when they have to defend their tag team titles against the new pairing of Finlay & Dave Taylor. Will Scott Steiner walk into Uncensored still tag team champion? Find out on Nitro.

A large limousine that is painted black and red and is complete with a pool in the back of it, comes out. In the pool is Hall, Nash, Syxxx and Rodman and they are surrounded by models. Bischoff is sitting on the hood smoking a cigar as the nWo celebrates and heads to the ring. One by one they all depart and enter the ring clearly in a celebratory mood. In the ring, Bischoff says to give it up for the uncrowned World Champion, Big Sexy Kevin Nash. Everyone bows to him while he hams it up. Bischoff says he used the term uncrowned because the nWo does not have the World Title...yet...but that will soon change. And that change will come this Saturday at Uncensored. You see, the NBA Bad Boy Dennis Rodman is guarding the Wolfpac's side to ensure a fair fight and to make sure Page, Hart and Sting can't weasel out of this NYC Street Fight. Because when the Wolfpac wins that match- and win it they will - at a time of our choosing...the World Title comes home. Because a new stipulation has been added and that says that when the nWo wins this Saturday, we get to have a title match at a time and place of our choosing. So tonight is part 1. Tonight, Syxxx Pac and Scott Hall smoke Page and Bret and take them apart. And then on Saturday, we begin the next phase of our hostile takeover. And WCW? Bite me. There's nothing you can do to stop it. Because the Wolfpac is....(Syxxx: ) Just (Hall: ) Too (Nash: ) Sweeeet. The guys high five and they all climb back into the limo and head to the back. The announcers tell us to stick around, the proper introduction to Monday Nitro will happen after this time out. Grade: 95 ============================ <div style="text-align:center;">******COMMERCIAL BREAK*******</div> ============================ [Nitro returns to a commercial featuring the return of the bad boy of the NBA, Dennis Rodman. He talks about how everything in his life is Uncensored. And he promises mayhem, violence, and a night you won't ever forget.

The announcers welcome us to the final stop to Uncensored from New York City this Saturday. They put over how the ante has been raised for this Saturday's main event - where now the nWo, should they win, get a title match at any time and any where they choose. Our main event tag team match is put over where Bret Hart & Diamond Dallas Page will take on Scott Hall and Syxxx. But, we kick things off with a cruiserweight match between Guido & Heavy Metal. Two men who will try to challenge for the Cruiserweight title this Saturday by winning the Cruiserweight Title Battle Royal.] Grade: 77 ============================ <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Match #1: Guido vs Heavy Metal <img alt="aeHBJDR.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/aeHBJDR.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> [Following the win, Guido locks in the half boston crab on an unconscious Heavy Metal.

Heenan has a bottle of champagne and two champagne flutes in his hand. He tells Gene that this Saturday at Uncensored the celebration will begin. The greatest manager in the history of wrestling has made his choice. That man's life is about to change. The future of this business is about to change. And it all happens this Saturday at Uncensored. Come Saturday, the bubbly will flow. The celebration will begin. And nothing will ever be the same. Heenan walks away laughing as Gene tells us to stay tuned because when Nitro returns, Goldberg is in action.

He has a mic and says that Goldberg is impressive. A novice but impressive. And all the adulation that he is receiving will soon go to his head. So, saving him from that is Raven's mission. Its the righteous thing to do. And this Saturday, Goldberg will step into his lair. His pain will be evident to all who bear witness but the one who will feel it the most is...Raven. Raven will cry when Goldberg cries. He will yell when Goldberg yells. He will hurt for hurting Goldberg. Its his cross to bear..to save Goldberg's soul. The depths of the Bowery will devour us both...but its worth it. Quote the Raven, Nevermore.

Gene is confused and asks whats going on and Page says that the nWo is so smug and so proud of themselves. They think that they have it all figured out but, we are going to top them. Sure, this Saturday one would think that they hold all the cards - they have Bischoff in their corner, they have Rodman in their corner, they win a title match if they beat us. But, we're no fools. Bret grabs the mic and says that in every war you need an equalizer. Someone that has an emotional stake in the battle. Someone that wants to win just as much as you do. And we have that person. The nWo wants to assert dominance...boys...we promise you - we have the counter.

Nash, Hall, Syxxx and Rodman immediately begin to retreat up the ramp where the crowd comes alive. Hart, Page and Sting are all pointing to the entrance way and we see CHRIS JERICHO who has a baseball bat standing in the entrance. Hall, Nash, Syxxx and Rodman look scared to death as Jericho is back and he must be the backup Hart and Page said they had. Jericho walks slowly towards them as Hart, Page and Sting come up the aisle. Trapped, the Wolfpac all jump over the barricade and escape through the crowd. As Nitro fades away we see the nWo running for their lives as team WCW has some back up of their own. ] Grade: 99 Final Overall Grade: 91

Mero uses Sable as a human shield, allowing him to take advantage and gain the momentum of the match. Mid-way through the match JR mentions an injury to Goldust that has cancelled their planned WrestleMania match. As Ahmed sends Mero over the top with a clothesline and follows he’s attacked by Vader who rams Johnson head first into the ringpost. The referee calls for the bell as Vader picks up the ring steps and drops them on Johnson before stalking off. Winner by Disqualification: Ahmed Johnson Grade: 66 </div></blockquote> ============================ <img alt="YtFobLO.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YtFobLO.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="B13ZKIH.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/B13ZKIH.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="1SVtqnJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/1SVtqnJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> We get a glimpse inside Vince McMahon’s office where he’s in the middle of a conversation with Pat Patterson and Gerald Brisco. We can’t hear what they’re discussing by McMahon looks very animated. Ross mentions the stress of WrestleMania may be getting to the boss with the thought of another Hart as champion. Lawler replies that after tonight that won’t be a problem after DX takes care of him. Grade: 60 ============================ <img alt="AOanEQS.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AOanEQS.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="8PABBv9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/8PABBv9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="ykB0lpe.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ykB0lpe.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> The members of the NWA come out, sans Blackjacks, and then stop half way down the ramp before waving to the back. The Blackjacks come out, dragging a man by the arms. We soon see who it is. <img alt="dXZgVBd.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/dXZgVBd.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="bTNlGOT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/bTNlGOT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="3fZJdHI.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/3fZJdHI.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Paul Heyman is barely conscious and bleeding profusely. He’s shoved into the ring as Jim Cornette gets a mic. Cornette asks Heyman if he’s feeling “extreme” tonight. Cornette says that the scum from ECW think people should be afraid of them because they’re violent. Well here is a history lesson. There wasn’t a more violent atmosphere than the NWA. Ask someone like Harley Race, ask Ole Anderson, go over there and ask Jerry Lawler how violent it was trying to get from the ring to the dressing room with a few thousand people who wanted you dead. The NWA may not use weapons and may keep the action in the ring but don’t for a minute think they can’t down and dirty. He goes on to call Heyman a punk and tells him to save some of that blood because Cornette is personally gonna take some more out of him on Sunday! They leave Heyman in the middle of the ring and head up the ramp as we go to a break. Grade: 53 ============================ <img alt="FpQi1gV.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FpQi1gV.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="K8om2AL.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/K8om2AL.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="3WoDCvV.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/3WoDCvV.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Backstage, Ravishing Rick Rude and the Awakening are with Michael Cole. Rude says that he tried to be loyal. He gave his old friends every opportunity to do the smart thing. But the Legion of Doom needed…well…a rude Awakening. Hawk and Animal are the past. These two men are the future. You’re looking at future WWF Tag Team Champions. And if you want to relive the golden days of the LOD go to Blockbuster and rent a tape because you’ll never see them in the ring again.

Quick tags and quick attacks are the name of the game as Phinneas is kept in the corner. Sunny is barking orders, telling her men not to blow this chance. How important it is for them. When Credible looks over at her antics, Phinneas makes a dash for his corner and dives to make the tag. Henry comes in and lays into Credible and Lynn. After a few moments of this, Credible is hit with the Slopdrop DDT and Henry makes the cover. Winners by Pinfall: The Godwinns Grade: 61 </div></blockquote> ============================ <img alt="IIw1x0p.jpg?1" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/IIw1x0p.jpg?1" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="1AoMP6e.jpg?1" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/1AoMP6e.jpg?1" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="i2lBqLT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/i2lBqLT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> As the Impact Players regroup in the ring, Sunny is irate. They try and calm her down but she slaps them both and leaves them in the ring to their surprise. Grade: 62 ============================ <img alt="GqMgEEK.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/GqMgEEK.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> After the commercial break we see a room lit only by a television. It’s showing the WWF Intercontinental Championship match from WrestleMania 8. Rowdy Roddy Piper sits in front of the television, unmoving, barely blinking. When he speaks its slow and low. Piper says that people wonder why he’s calling out Triple H this Sunday. Why now? It’s all about that Intercontinental title. It deserves better than Triple H. It deserves to be worn by a man, not a degenerate. And before Triple H thinks he can out-degenerate Piper, he needs a little stroll down memory lane. Piper was DX before DX was cool, he did it all a decade ago and he knows every trick in the book and a few chapters nobody’s read yet. This Sunday he’s coming to fight and he’s coming to bring honor to that title and when it’s done, he’s gonna shock the world. Grade: 90 ============================ <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> Non-Title Match <img alt="LGl8Bm5.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/LGl8Bm5.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="5kM5ykY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/5kM5ykY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="iYCbZUE.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/iYCbZUE.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> D’Lo is on his own tonight in this non-title match and it’s clear that Mankind has reached his breaking point when it comes to the nation. He beats, pummels, and tortures D’Lo all the while enjoying himself. At one point with Brown tied in the Tree of Woe, the referee has to physically move Mankind back when he won’t respect the five count. Finally Mankind locks on the Mandible Claw and D’Lo taps out but Mankind won’t release it. The referee urges compliance but when Mankind won’t release it, he reverses the decision and disqualifies him. Winner by Disqualification: D’Lo brown Grade: 76 </div></blockquote> ============================ <img alt="Pp3A3KT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Pp3A3KT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="AwLQevZ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AwLQevZ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="D5L9Q0A.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/D5L9Q0A.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="FOI4Dmr.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FOI4Dmr.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="zcHPPTR.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/zcHPPTR.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="t6ekaFs.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/t6ekaFs.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> The Rock leads the rest of the nation down to the ring but before they get to the bottom of the ramp the three members of DOA cut them off from the crowd and block the path. An argument ensues as D’Lo continues to writhe in the ring under the Mandible Claw and Mankind smiles crazily. Grade: 68 ============================ <img alt="qqL7IOk.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/qqL7IOk.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="1qZPUqg.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/1qZPUqg.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="mLSbjpc.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/mLSbjpc.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Backstage we see the Fabulous Moolah when the New Age Outlaws come up to her. They ask her if she knows who they are and she doesn’t really pay them any attention but when she tries to leave Gunn blocks her path, leans in and asks again, very slowly. For his efforts he gets a stiff slap in the face. Moolah says she knows who they are. And she knows at WrestleMania they’re gonna lose their tag titles to the Godwinns. This infuriates both Outlaws and Gunn says that it’s a shame Moolah won’t get to see them retain their titles from her hospital room. He knees her in the stomach and when she’s doubled over, picks her up for a piledriver. He tells Road Dogg to climb up a few steps on a staircase nearby and when Road Dogg jumps off they both deliver a spike piledriver to the WWF Hall of Famer. Officials are on the spot instantly and it seems the Outlaws are even stunned by their actions.

EMTs work on Moolah, stabilizing her neck. Heels and babyfaces alike are standing in shock. Brisco and Patterson are knelt by her talking to her. Vince McMahon comes onto the scene and rips into the Outlaws saying they’ve gone too far now and they may not make it WrestleMania because he might fire them before. Road Dogg stammers out an apology saying he didn’t think it’d go like this but suddenly the Godwinns hit the area and go for the Outlaws. <img alt="aOWgySG.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/aOWgySG.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="OJ3TFyb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OJ3TFyb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> A brawl begins to ensue until the teams are separated but Henry Godwinn is hot and screams at them, challenging them to do it to a couple of men instead of an old lady. The Outlaws are ushered out before anything more can happen.

Hart says that he asked for this match tonight against DX, and he knows what he’s walking into. But he’s got a surprise for them tonight and it the best surprise…there ever will be! Grade: 86 ============================ <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><img alt="TIKf0Zl.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TIKf0Zl.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="5kM5ykY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/5kM5ykY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="8PABBv9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/8PABBv9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Jarrett is in the ring and the lights go out and the theme of the Undertaker plays but he doesn’t come out. Everyone seems confused and they play the music again but still no Undertaker. Finally Cornette begins screaming for the referee to start the match and begin the ten count which he eventually does. Even a slow methodical count can’t stop a jubilant Jeff Jarrett from claiming a count out victory over the Phenom. Winner by Countout: Jeff Jarrett Grade: 77 </div></blockquote> ============================ <img alt="TIKf0Zl.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TIKf0Zl.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> JR says they’re going to a developing situation in the back. When the cameraman arrives we see the Undertaker is unconscious on the floor and next to him is a broken shovel. Medical personnel attend to him as Lawler proclaims that there is no doubt this is the work of Kane! Grade: 90 ============================ <img alt="Juax5CP.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Juax5CP.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="ghAO1vg.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ghAO1vg.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> JR and Lawler run down the card for this Sunday’s WrestleMania. JR mentions that due to Goldust being injured Ahmed will have a new opponent, Vader! And of course there was the match nobody saw coming. Rowdy Roddy Piper has forced his way into WrestleMania and he wants Triple H. Lawler says Piper must be getting senile but JR says Piper never goes into battle without a plan. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="VZy6zSB.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VZy6zSB.jpg"

Owen shows no fear as he begins the match against Triple H and he quickly becomes a victim of the numbers game as Triple H works him over with cheap shots and distractions from Michaels and Chyna. Finally the champ tags in and he too uses their advantages to keep the referee looking the wrong way. But the crowd comes alive when Chyna sticks out her arm and demands a tag. Michaels shrugs and tags her in. Owen continues to play defense and cover up as best he can as she lays into him with stiff looking strikes. She’s standing over Owen, telling him to get up and fight when suddenly….. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="<a href="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LquJ8epW9AE?rel=0" rel="external nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/embed/LquJ8epW9AE?rel=0"</a> frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe> Michaels and Triple H hear the music and look like they’ve seen a ghost and immediately drop off the apron and rush up the ramp. Lawler and JR are very confused with Lawler asking excitedly if ‘he’s back’. When Chyna looks over to see what’s happening, Owen strikes and pulls her legs out from under her putting her on her back. He quickly puts her in the Sharpshooter and before Michaels and Triple H realize what’s happened Chyna is tapping out. Winner by Submission: Owen Hart Grade: 77 </div></blockquote> ============================ <img alt="rrPX9e2.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rrPX9e2.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="GDGiR58.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/GDGiR58.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="DjHTPUb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/DjHTPUb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="9IQREL9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9IQREL9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Michaels and Triple H sprint back to the ring but Hart ditches to the outside and into the crowd. As Triple H checks on Chyna, Michaels climbs to the second rope furiously promising Hart that this Sunday he won’t be laughing but Owen wears a smile from ear to ear as we go to break. Grade: 85 ============================ <img alt="5bJ1Ac1.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/5bJ1Ac1.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="AHMb2hh.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AHMb2hh.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> When we return, JR and Lawler show footage from that morning when Stone Cold Steve and Mike Tyson held a press conference in Boston. As with just about every Tyson press conference, it ended in a near riot as both men went at each other and had to be separated. Grade: 89 ============================ <img alt="5bJ1Ac1.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/5bJ1Ac1.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Juax5CP.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Juax5CP.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="AHMb2hh.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AHMb2hh.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> JR then shows us a split screen with Tyson in one place and Austin in another. Austin opens by saying that Mike Tyson is in a lot of trouble come Sunday because he made his career against people who feared him but Austin fears no one. Tyson responds that he’s going to teach Austin how to fear because in boxing he wasn’t allowed to keep punching someone when they’re unconscious but Sunday he can do whatever he wants. He can abuse Austin, he can punish him. And there’s nothing Austin can do about it. Austin gets hot and stands, tossing his chair. He says that Tyson has shown he’s good at two things. Sneak attacks and running his mouth but Stone Cold Steve Austin is excellent when it comes to drinking beer, raising hell, and stomping mudholes in people’s asses and walking them dry and on Sunday at WrestleMania he’s gonna do all three and that’s the bottom line, cause Stone Cold said so! The two give a deep staredown into their cameras as JR urges the audience to order WrestleMania this Sunday on Pay Per View. Grade: 99 Overall: 89

So happy to see this diary back! WrestleMania looks stacked!

Loved this episode of Raw--the Moolah/NAO stuff was great as was Owen employing Bret's music to create the distraction. Top notch stuff!

<div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="c8SF0q3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/c8SF0q3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="44224" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Howdy folks, good ol’ JR here coming to you from Beantown as we stand on the cusp of WrestleMania. I can’t express enough how excited I am to call the action this Sunday. It my honest opinion this is shaping up to be, on paper, the greatest WrestleMania card of all time. From a WWF World Title match between two studs that can go all day in the ring, to one of the best stories in recent memory between the Undertaker and Kane, and of course the one all the mainstream media is paying attention to….Stone Cold vs Iron Mike in what is the textbook definition of slobberknocker. I feel that the WWF has done pretty well in building the card in terms of not just in-ring action but background storytelling as well. Each of these matches has a reason for existing. Of course I’m aware that the recent injury suffered by Goldust means that Ahmed Johnson and Vader have the least background to build on but I also think these two bulls can make chicken salad out of, well, you know with their athleticism and experience. Even the NWA vs ECW feud which I have not been thrilled with has built itself to the finish line and will surely give us a moment or two to remember. One match which has not had a lot of build is the Intercontinental championship match between Triple H and the ever entertaining Rowdy Roddy Piper. The match seems to have come out of the blue but if you look back a few weeks we saw the seeds sowed and given time to take root. I have full faith in Hot Rod and HHH to deliver a match which while it probably won’t steal the show should elevate the title which is the reason for putting it on the show. But if there is one thing more exciting than WrestleMania Sunday it’s the post-WrestleMania Monday Night RAW. Always there to give us surprises and set the tone for the next year of storytelling. I expect to be shocked, surprised, and intrigued by the time the show goes off the air Monday night. I hope each and every one of you are able to join us on Sunday either in person or through your televisions for the biggest WrestleMania of all time. I can say without reservation that business will definitely pick up!</div></blockquote></div>

Marc Mero vs Simon Landry

Beejus · August 11, 2018

Wolfpac - I'm a little of two minds on this one. I could see this match as either a way to get the nWo into the big spotlight again, where Rodman helps them win and then Nash comes up to take the title. OR, I could see Rodman helping them lose, with Hollywood making his return and screwing them over because he didn't like how they usurped his leadership. In the end, I'll go with the nWo winning.

Eddie Guerrero - Eddie is having a great run, he can go over Metal here to retain.

Shane Douglas - Shane has big fish to fry.

Goldberg - The man who will stop Eddie's run pretty soon.

Guido - He seems to have the biggest feud going on with Rey...

Rey Mysterio - ...And this match will end it.

Scott Steiner - The world is far more ready for "Big Poppa Pump" than they are for Booker's big singles rush.

Owen Hart - Hart at the top, ending Mania with the best feel-good moment possible.

Steve Austin - Unless you plan on Tyson being a full time wrestler, this is the only option.

NAO - lol hillbillies

Undertaker - The Streak (before it was the streak) lives.

Vader - He lost his original dance partner but picks up the same win he would have otherwise.

3H - Just like with Tyson, I don't see you making Roddy a full timer, so he puts over a younger name here.

The Rock

ECW - This has been a fun story, but ECW goes over to end it.

5th Man: Terry Funk

Marc Mero - Props for pushing Corino, but he's barely Steve Corino yet, let alone the God that he would become. He jobs out here.
