The Wrestling Buzz!

Mitsuharu Misawa vs. Kenta Kobashi Which was live on AJPW TV... A very good match but not much is known about it... Got an A Rating![/I] [CENTER][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/macjap/WCW/ECW.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/macjap/WCW/WCW1998.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] [I]In what many people call a shock move of the century WCW has developed a working relationship with none other than ECW! This is considered a backstab by ECW who just a few months ago had there Pay Per View being promoted on WWF TV! WCW Commissioner Eric Bischoff had this to say "We believe that a working relationship with ECW will be the best for both brands..... In fact the next story should give you some insight on the first detials of this relationship!"[/I] [CENTER][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/macjap/WCW/UltimateWarrior2.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/macjap/WCW/RobVanDam.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] [I]Rob Van Dam traded for Ultimate Warrior: Part of ECW/WCW's working relationship is the ability to trade talent... This ability has been showcased very quickly and in a strange way... After months of negotiations the Ultimate Warrior has signed on with WCW in a temporary role and has mainly been brought in to put others over... After some negotiations for quite a while he has been brought back in... He had a try out match in front of the WCW booking team and they agree he has some ring-rust... Bischoff then called Heyman and told him that he was interested in using RVD for three shows... Heyman agrees but wants a true WCW Superstar to replace him on a few shows so that he can use the star to put over his guys such as Raven and the Sandman... Bischoff tells Heyman that Warrior has signed on and Heyman says that he will make the perfect heel from "Hollywood" wrestling as he calls it... Not much is known what WCW will do with RVD during his first three appearances... Lets hope he is not put into an Ultimate Warriorish role and his career is ruined!

NJPW has agreed to lend Lyger to WCW in a trade off of sorts... Nash is said to be very displeased by this since his creative control clause will be null and void in NJPW... When WCW Commissioner Eric Bischoff was contacted he said this "We would like to expand the NWO to a global format so Mr. Nash is an ambassador of sorts!"[/I] [CENTER][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/macjap/WCW/WWF.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] [I]In WWF news nothing really too big has happened over the past few weeks except Ken Shamrock defeating Rocky Miavia in the Main Event of RAW... When will WWF be back on top..?[/I]

On the WCW Starrcade Preshow! Things start off with a NONWCW match of sorts as Eric Bischoff has made this match an "International Challenge"... Young up and comer rookie from ECW Rob Van Dam will go head to head with Jushin Thunder Lyger in a Cruiserweight Dream match... Bischoff has also promised a Title Shot to either man the next night on NITRO depending on who the winner is! WCW opens the show up with Scott Norton taking on the man with the neverending Undefeated Streak Bill Goldberg... Both men are of the same size, speed and strength so who will walk out of Starrcade with the Big V?!

Oh did I mention its for the TAG TEAM TITLES! Match Four of the show features WCW Cruiserweight Champion Eddy Guerrero taking on Dean Malenko for the Cruiserweight Championship...

This will be immidiately followed by the match to determine who owns WCW Truly as Scott Hall (With Eric Bischoff) takes on Bret Hart (With Larry Zybysko) in a match to determine the fate of WCW! Then the Flock does battle with Team Davey Boy! Davey Boy and Benoit promise someone from Raven's shocking past.... WHO IS IT!? The United States Title is on the line next as Curt Henning will go head to head with Diamond Dallas Page... Is it time for the US Title to feel... DA.... BANG!!! Finnaly your WCW Starrcade Main Event of the evening pits WCW Champion Hollywood Hulk Hogan against Sting in a one on one match that could soon be the Match of the Century!

Mike: WELCOME EVERYONE TO WCW STARRCADE!! This is the biggest Pay Per View in WCW History and I cannot thank of a better place to hold it than right here in San Antonio, TX!!! *Fans Pop* Mike: Tonight we have a bunch of action so sit tight, strap in your safety belts and get ready for the roof to EXPLODE![/SIZE][/FONT] Rating: None Time: 1 Minutes[/CENTER] [SIZE="4"][CENTER][COLOR="Navy"]Rob Van Dam vs. Jushin Thunder Lyger[/COLOR][/CENTER][/SIZE] [CENTER][FONT="Arial"][SIZE="2"]Lyger is somewhat familar to WCW fans and they popped for him hardcore! Lyger hit the ring and a few fans threw streamers when he was doing his entrance taunt... Lyger is obviously the face... Rob Van Dams music hit and he had on a shirt that says "Mr. Sunday Night"... The fans did not welcome him warmly! RVD and Lyger start things off with an exchange of Armdrags and Dropkicks trying to top each other in the style of cruiserweightness... RVD got the advantage early on and dropkicked Lyger off the apron... The fans were wondering what RVD was about to do when RVD catapulted over the Top Rope with a Flipping No Handed Plancha! The fans are now into this match!... RVD and Lyger would fight sporidically in and out of the ring until Lyger hit a Shooting Star Press of the Top Rope onto RVD that got the fans going even more.... Tenay: Tony, Bobby I think both men are going all out here to make sure they please these fans on such a historical night as Starrcade! Bobby: You said it Mike!.... Back to the in-ring action RVD has been working over Lyger's leg and looks to have the win! Lyger fights back up and goes for his famous Lyger Bomb!!!! RVD reverses into a Rana and goes up Top and nails the most viscious Frog Splash I have ever seen! He calls it the Five Star Frog Splash and it must be because it just got him the 1-2-3!

It is obvoius the Texas Crowd does not like this bunch of artsy-fartsy tree-huggin gothic queers! "God Saves the Queen" hits and Davey Boy walks out with Jim Neidhart and Beniot and a mysterios man in a mask... Davey boy grabs a mic and reveals Stevie Richards as the man from the past as Raven looks scared! Match started off with Richards and Kidman in the ring in a good light-heavyweight battle. Overall some of Kidmans best in ring WCW Work... Richards hit Kidman with some good offense and the fans are getting behind Richards!... Tag into Davey Boy Smith who immidiately man-handles young Kidman... Kidman does not look like he has much hope in the match until he hits a Dropkick out of a Flapjack on Davey Boy... Kidman tags in Hammer... Tag to Neidhart and the two powerhouses collide with Neidhart looking good. Hammer cannot seem to even put forth a half decent performance and he really drug this match down... (Firing anyone?) Hammer was the first to be eliminated after Neidhart and Smith double teamed him with the Hart attack! Tag back into Richards after Davey Boy and Neidhart eliminated Hammer! Richards and Raven square off and immidiately start brawling! Richards outsmarts Raven and nails him with the Sweet Stevie Music as he calls it and gets the one-two-three eliminating Raven! Saturn and Benoit then go at it in the ring but Saturn falls to numbers quickly and gets submitted by a Benoit snap Dragon Suplex into the Crossface! Kidman is then left alone to fight off Four People! Kidman put up a good fight which is about to be chronicled... At first it was Kidman fighting for his life against Benoit going move for move with him and looking like Gold! Benoit went for the German Suplex but Kidman back-flipped out of it and landed on his feet school boying Benoit and eliminating him as the crowd went crazy! Tag into Richards who battled with Kidman with Richards dominating most of the time.. Richards made a mistake by going for a Superplex that Kidman reversed by punching him in the head making him land perfectly squared up for a Shooting Star Press off the Top Rope to eliminate him! Neidhart then ran into the ring but ran too fast and lost him momentum and Kidman rolled him up into a Small Package! The fans are shocked and so is Raven who is watching from ringside! Davey Boy then went back into the ring as it is now 1 on 1 and face off with Kidman... They went at each other move for move but one man would prevail... That man was Davey Boy who got the win when Kidman went for a Body Block off the Top Rope and Davey Boy reversed it into a Powerslam!!! [U]After the match[/U]: Kidman shook hands with Davey Boy much to the anger of Raven who demanded Kidman be whipped by a Kendo Stick for his actoins against the Flock... Davey Boy stood up to Raven but got Evenflowed for his troubles by Raven... Kidman refused to attack Davey Boy and Raven was about to go after Kidman again when Chris Benoit hit ringside!! Benoit came in and was about to German Suplex Raven when Perry Saturn came back and hit him with a Death Valley Driver... Saturn then picked up Benoit again and demanded Kidman leave a chair on the ground... Saturn gave Benoit a DVD onto the chair for good measure as Kidman leaves visibly shaken... Saturn grabs a mic... Saturn: Boy you said you wanted a match with me.... How about tomorrow night... If your walking![SIZE="2"] [/SIZE][/FONT] Rating: C Time: 20 Minutes[/CENTER] [SIZE="4"][CENTER][COLOR="Navy"]Goldberg vs. Scott Norton[/COLOR][/CENTER][/SIZE] [CENTER][FONT="Arial"][SIZE="2"]Here we have two young up and comers in WCW... The NWO Powerhouse Scott Norton and rookie sensatoin Goldberg... Goldberg and Norton start things off with a test of strength that Norton wins! Norton attempts a Iron Claw on Goldberg but Goldberg gets up and kicks him in the face for being a stupid bitch!... Norton and Goldberg mainly brawled here in what many people would call decent but not Pay Per View Action... Norton went for a running Lariat late in the match that Goldberg dodged... Goldberg then hit the ropes and hit the Spear as Norton was turning around... After a quick Jackhammer the match was over (7:55)... [U]AFTER THE MATCH[/U]: Jimmy Hart appears in the ring and says he thinks Goldberg is tough but not tough enough... Hes got a client who thinks he is tougher than Goldberg... Mortis sneaks up behind Goldberg and hits the Mortifying Trip (Shellshock) on Goldberg as Hart looks on with glee!

Before he can make it to the ring though two men in Mexican wrestling masks jump out of the crowd and attack him! Malenko finnaly makes it to the ring after being assaulted by the Mexicans with chairs! Malenko looks visibly hurt though!...

Malenko then picks up Guerrero and whips him into the ropes! Malenko goes for a Spinebuster but Guerrero reverses with the Shining Wizard! Guerrero locks in a One Legged Crab and Malenko looks to be going nowhere... Guerrero continues to squeeze it in but it looks like Malenko will not give up! Malenko is a fighter! Guerrero lets go of the hold and throws Malenko to the outside... He then goes and gripes to the ref when suddenly the DAMN MEXICANS run out from the crowd again and nail Malenko with two chair shots... Malenko looks hurt.... Guerrero is done distracting the referee and turns around and runs against the ropes and hits a Suicide Dive onto Malenko! He then grabs Malenko and throws him back into the ring! Guerrero does a slingshot body-splash and goes for a pin... 1...2...3... NO Malenko's feet are on the ropes!

Hall of course gets booed in typical NWO Fashion but you can tell that Hall could be the star of the NWO after making the entire arena hate him quickly! Bret Hart comes to the ring as the fans get to popping and the arena goes nuts. Hart enters the ring and him and Hall face off... Hall pushes Hart to start things off. Hart gets back into Hall's face and pushes him as well. They get back into each other's faces and Hall takes a shot at Hart... Hart grabs his arm and reverses it by hitting Hall in the face with a shot of his own! Hall stumbles backwards and Bret runs forward nailing a Flying Forearm on Hall... Hall and Hart meet each other at the feet again and Hart goes for a Dropkick that Hall dodges... Hall then approaches Hart and grabs him and pulls him to him and shoulder blocks him repeatedly! Hall whips Hart into the ropes and Hart goes for a Cross Body... Hall hits the Fallaway Slam! Hall then takes control of pretty much the rest of the match by dominating Hart with big move after big move and slowing him down by working over the feet. The high point came when Hall locked in a Boston Crab and Hart made it slowly to the ropes... Hall picks him up and starts to go for the Outsiders Edge... Hart lands on his feet and so he grabs Hall and hits the Russian Legsweep! Hart gets up on the Top Rope and comes off with his famous elbow drop! Hart goes for the pin... 1...2...

Alright call for the bell he is done fo *Cut off* What Hogan did not know was that Sting was coming down from the rafters the whole time he was making his speech! Sting landed in the ring behind Hogan and grabbed Hogan and nailed the Scorpion Death Drop to start the match in very contraversial fashion! Hogan quickly got up from the Death Drop and the lights went out again... Hogan was shown looking around and Sting was right behind him! Sting flexed his muscles and Hogan ran out of the ring scared ****less as the fans went absolutely nuts! Hogan got back into the ring and slapped Sting in the face... Hogan kept doing it but Sting just looked on at Hogan with a face of stone everytime Hogan slapped him... Hogan came off the ropes with a clothesline but Sting stood there still! Hogan then came off the ropes looking for another Clothesline but Sting ducked it and nailed Hogan in the back of the head with a Dropkick! Sting then came up onto Hogan and locked in a Headlock!!!! Hogan fought out of it and attempted to irish whip Sting but grabbed Sting's longer hair before he did and slammed him down... Hogan then dominated the match for a while by slowing down Sting with every move he could think of (Not many for Hogan)... Sting fought back and gained the clear advantage at one point by reversing a superplex with a headbutt that knocked Hogan off the Top Rope and then Sting coming down a Body Splash! Hogan and Sting battled back and forth for over thirty minutes and the fans really loved the match and were excited the whole time with all the nearfalls and the roller coaster ride! Finish came when Hogan hit the big boot and the legdrop...1...2...3... NO FOOT ON ROPES! Hogan brought Sting up and scoop slammed him and then went for the Leg Drop again.... STING MOVES!!! Sting whips Hogan into the corner and hits the Stinger Splash!!! He then hits the Scorpion Death Drop and drags Hogan to the middle locking in the Scorpion Death Lock.... Hogan fights up but ends up tapping!!!! After the match the NWO attempt to get into the ring and attack Sting but the Steiners, Kevin Von Erich, Chris Jericho, Diamond Dallas Page, Davey Boy Smith, Dean Malenko and Chris Benoit hit ringside and run them off. The Steiners grab the World Title belt and give it to Sting and then hoist Sting onto there shoulders as the men celebrate in the ring at the end of the greatest Pay Per View in WCW History!!! [/SIZE][/FONT] Rating: A Time: 40 Minutes [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/macjap/WCW/Nitrologo95.jpg[/IMG] [I]This weeks Nitro should be titled Starrcade 2... With so many huge matches this could very well be a Pay Per Viewisq Starrcade... Lets see what action we got going on! Things open up with Cruiserweight Champion Eddy Guerrero teaming up with Rob Van Dam against Jushin Thunder Lyger and Rob Van Dam... After both men made impressive debuts at Starrcade and Guerrero and Malenko having a huge Cruiserweight Title Match... Lyger has a Cruiserweight Title shot that is owed to him but nobody is quite sure when he will cash it in. Also... will the two Mexicans who attacked Malenko reappear!? Things heat up as Perry Saturn has made a challenge to Chris Benoit... The only problem is is that Benoit got Death Valley Drivered onto a Steel Chair last night at Starrcade! Did I mention its for the TV Title!!! Also Diamond Dallas Page makes his first United States Title defense as he defends against one half of WCW's Newest Team Four C Chris Candido... Candido will have Christian Cage with him but will it be enough to unseat the US Champion! And finnally your huge WCW Nitro Main Event is 8 Man Tag Action as Team WCW of Sting, Bret Hart, Chris Jericho and Ultimo Dragon take on The Giant, Hollywood Hogan, Macho Man Randy Savage and Scott Hall.... This could very well be the most organized mayhem of all time![/I][/CENTER]

Many feel they are trying to bring down the WCW Product by playing master politicians and not let talent rise up to there levels... WCW Management has reported that if this continues major punishment could be in order... Even firing![/I][/CENTER]

[CENTER][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v216/macjap/WCW/WCW1998.jpg[/IMG] [I]Hogan and Nash gone! After an altercation at a WCW House show with two smaller wrestlers (Ultimo Dragon and Rey Myterio) that was obviously started by Nash and Hogan they are now both gone... Reys altercation was with Nash after Nash insulted his size and his inability to get over... Rey of course is about to start a major fued and took exception to this and tried to walk away to cool down... Nash grabbed him by the arm violently and Rey struck at Nash... Rey got no punishment because Nash has had a bad attitude over the past few months and has hindered many storylines due to "Creative Control" Hogan insulted Ultimo Dragon by saying he has never accomplished crap in wrestling and saying that he never helped landscape anything in Japan... Ultimo took offense to this and so he left just like Rey did... Hogan didnt do anything at the moment but when Ultimo was in the restroom in the locker room Hogan came in and stole Ultimo's masks making him unable to compete in the night... WCW Staff team members held all the wrestlers after the show and asked very politely who stole the masks... Nobody responded so they said whoever it was was going to be terminated immidiately... Hogan fessed up to it thinking he would not be punished and was instantly fired! Keep in mind that a Luchadores masks is his whole pride, gimmick and love and stealing it is the biggest insult in the world to a Luchadore... Hogan will still be appearing on tommorow Nights Nitro, but it will be his last appearence in WCW... Nash will be in Japan and so he will not get a last appearence... The NWO is said to be getting a new leader... One who could even be a greater leader than Hulk... Who is it?![/I][/CENTER]
