SHOW START
- Tony Schiavone, Mike Tenay & Stevie Ray hype up the final four of the #1 Contender's Tournament which will be decided tonight. Tony Schiavone cannot look beyond a Bill Goldberg/Scott Steiner confrontation. Mike Tenay says that you shouldn't discount Kanyon as that Kanyon Kutter can be hit from almost anywhere in the ring. Stevie Ray says the man his Brother is fearing wrestling the most is Mike Awesome again - he took him close to the bell last time they thought on the very first Saturday Night a few months back! (C-)
Match: Air Styles v Elix Skipper v Kwee Kee v Shannon Moore
In a bout that had solid in-ring action but non-existent crowd heat, Air Styles defeated Elix Skipper, Kwee Wee and Shannon Moore in 7:09 when Air Styles defeated Elix Skipper by pinfall with a Styles Clash. (D+)
- Jason Jett makes his way to the ring, he has a microphone (the crowd don't seem that interested). He lays out an open challenge, as he wants to prove himself to everyone in 'TV LAND'. (E+)
- The Masked Psycho appears from somewhere in the crowd, jumps over the barriers and slides into the ring. He crouchs down waiting for Jason Jett to turn around... (D-) Match starts!
Match: Jason Jett v The Masked Psycho
In an extremely short match, The Masked Psycho defeated Jason Jett in 4:51 by pinfall with a Sickle Of Death. (E)
- Vampiro slides into the ring. He's looking at The Masked Psycho at the other end of the ring, nodding and smiling. Vampiro has a mic, he says he likes Psycho's style. There's a brief stare, before Psycho launchs a spinning wheel kick into Vampiro! Psycho leaves through the crowd, as Vampiro is left getting to his feet... SMILING. (E+)
- The show returns from a break. Don Callis, Kevin Nash & Mike Awesome are in the ring. Kevin Nash is talking: he says that as Don Callis' consultant he's still watching, still keeping an eye out for potential talent to join Mike Awesome in representing the true owner of WCW - Don Callis. Don Callis takes the mic and begins to tell everyone that the date for the Kangaroo Court has been set - Starrcade 2001. He reminds Eric Bischoff that whoever wins, wins outright control of WCW. (C-)
- Alex Wright & Norman Smiley (AKA Team Amazement) enter and make their way to the ring as their horrible techno funk dance music plays. "PREPARE TO BE... AMAZED!" They enter the ring they start to dance for the crowd! (D-)
- Natural Born Thrillers are standing at the entrance ramp looking at each other in disbelief. They tell everyone that they are the only amazing tag team in WCW. They were born to entertain, born to thrill, born to amaze. They don't need horrible dance moves to prove anything as they have the titles. They give Team Amazement a 5 count to leave the ring. (D+)

In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Natural Born Thrillers defeated Team Amazement in 10:22 when Sean O'Haire defeated Alex Wright by pinfall with a Double Superkick. (D+)
- It looks like Natural Born Thrillers are going to smash Alex Wright & Norman Smiley through a pair of tables..! WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN KroniK run down to make the save! They attack Natural Born Thrillers, saving Team Amazement. The fight goes back and forth across the ring before finally KroniK manage to put NBT through the tables they had set up earlier... REVENGE! (D+)
- KroniK pick up the Tag Titles and walk away. They stop at the entrance ramp as they see NBT get back to their feet. "You want your titles back? Tomorrow at New Blood Rising - Tables match." KroniK drop the mics and walk away. (D+)
- A Countdown timer quickly winds up from 00:00:00 to 24:00:00, as it hits 24:00:00 it slowly starts to countdown. Images start to fade onto the screen, a black & white face paint design. A scorpian. "Tomorrow..." (B-)
- The show returns from the ad break. Scott Steiner is in the ring. He's rambling on about how he doesn't need any #1 Contender's Tournament to tell him he's the #1 Contender, as he's the Champion. The Genetic Freak Champion. He said he's out to stop all other pretenders from trying to claim his throne. Mike Awesome might be awesome, but he's Steiner, and Steiner is greater than Awesome. There's a lot of grunting in there too. (C+)
Match: Mike Awesome v Scott Steiner
In a match that had some good action and average heat, Scott Steiner defeated Mike Awesome in 10:09 by pinfall after Midajah interfered. (D+)
- WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BETTTTTTTTTAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THAN KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANYON..! Kanyon is cutting a promo about how he's the best in WCW and no one can deny it. No one. He dares Goldberg to deny it. He dares Booker T to deny it. He dares them to come feel the... BANG! (B-)
- Bill Goldberg starts his long entrance from the locker room. Police escorts are with him all the way to the ring, leaving no chance for Scott Steiner to blind side him before this match. (B-)
Match: Kanyon v Bill Goldberg
In a match that had some good action and a good crowd, Bill Goldberg defeated Kanyon in 9:34 by pinfall with The Spear. (C)
Show End (C-)
TV Rating: 0.23 (down from 0.25)
Rey Misterio Jr. did an impression of Chavo Guererro and Gene Okerlund before the show started, which raised morale in the dressing room.
No Fear Soldiers (better known as Samoa Joe & The Prototype) made their debut in a dark match.
DDP continues to impress as manager of Johnny Swinger.
The Wall made his debut as Hell Raiser, showing off his new demonic gimmick.
The Jason Jett/Masked Pyscho match bombed the crowd. The feeling within WCW is that Jason Jett's TV time is numbered with the company.
The feeling is that WCW don't have enough interesting Storylines.
- Who will be the #1 Contender to face Booker T: Scott Steiner or Bill Goldberg?
- What does Vampiro want with The Masked Psycho?
- Can Natural Born Thrillers regain their titles face-to-face against KroniK at New Blood Rising?

Invasion Attack is still an iPPV, right? So just a two week turnaround between NJPW iPPV's?

New Japan's beginning!
Liger, Tiger Mask & Nakanishi vs Nagata, BUSHI & Super Strong Machine!
It's a PPV in Japan, no word if it will be international or not yet - however, the 41st Anniversary Show was a PPV in Japan, but we didn't get it. They might just skip Invasion Attack and wait for the 05/03 Wrestling Dontaku show - either way, it should be online a few days after.

They've been way more successful with their iPPV's than they've ever been with standard PPV's, so I'm not sure why they'd do that. I'd be fine with paying for another iPPV, though I'll also be buying a couple of other iPPV's that weekend (probably Shimmer and one of DGUSA or ROH).

HONMA'S BACK!! Fuck yes.
Kojima picks up the win for his team with a sick lariat on YOSHI-HASHI, but CHAOS attack Makabe after the bell and Tomoaki Honma returns to make the save!
Yeah, I'd be happy to pay for that one too, but the normal PPVs (through niconico) do a lot of buys in Japan because not many people have cable and I'd guess they don't want to oversaturate the international market with too many PPVs too early.

Great semi-final match there, Davey Boy looked like a beast.

Okada vs Yano next.
Goto grapevines the legs and rolls Davey Boy up from nowhere to score the pin and go to the finals
Okada vs Yano next.

Their international market is still tiny though, isn't it? Last I remember, of Wrestle Kingdom 7's 100k+ iPPV buys, only 1-2% were from outside of Japan.
Goto heads to the final. Quality match, though I'm a bit disappointed with the result. Davey's awesome.
Good start to Okada/Yano. Yano's hilarious.
British Monsoon
Member
Yeah, that's why I'd guess they're skipping some iPPVs internationally, because the markets so small the buys would probably be even smaller for the lesser PPVs - Dontaku's the next real big event, so I think that'll be the next international iPPV.
LiquidSolid said:
He really is. Just goes to show how inept WWE really are.
*edit, that match was super fun, they really
had me believing Yano might win it on a few occasions
Yano counters the Rainmaker a half dozen times, but Okada locks in Red Ink to tap Yano and head to the final
LiquidSolid

Sure but the international audience aren't the main audience of the iPPVs, the Japanese are. So if they're trying to sell these shows to Japan, iPPV would be the logical place to do it.
Yep, they've got a writing staff of like 30 people and yet they've no clue how use any more than just a handful of guys at a time and even then, their storylines and skits are garbage. It's amazing how much talent they waste.
Great match from Okada and Yano.

CHAOS vs Suzuki-gun 6-man tag next!
That NWA/Rob Conway invading New Japan stuff...I could not give the slightest of fucks.
Yeah, but all the PPVs are iPPVs in Japan via NicoNico, whereas international customers can only buy them through U-Stream and, like I said, they've been skipping some.

Excellent 6-man tag between CHAOS and Suzuki-gun - Tomohiro Ishii is ridiculously awesome, loved his segments vs Archer and vs Suzuki. Post-match he and Nakamura challenged KES to a tag title match, Davey Boy hit the ring and accepted, but demanded an Intercontinental Title shot against Nakamura! That match should be all kinds of awesome.
8-man tag next as Devitt, Taguchi, Anderson & Tonga take on Tanahashi, KUSHIDA, Shelley & Captain New Japan.

Oh okay, now I get what you're saying. Makes sense, though you'd think the involvement of NWA would push them to making it international, even if no one gives a shit about the NWA anymore.
The 6 man tag was good and I really liked the post-match promos.
8 man tag now and did Tama Tonga enter wearing his CMLL tag belt? Didn't he quit CMLL?
WWE should officially turn Smackdown into a highlight show. 2 weeks before WM, the show they put out has more commercials than a 3 hour Raw and is more about promoting movies than the biggest show of the year. I think Jericho vs Fandango was the only story that was actually progressed at all. They should just stop pretending it is a real show and go all in on Raw Jr.

NJ Cup FINAL up next,
Seriously, that was a lot of fun, but it seems like Devitt'll turn heel (with Karl?) and Taguchi won't approve.
Either way, this Devitt vs Tanahashi feud is all kinds of awesome. Love that promo from Devitt.
Kazuchika Okada vs Hirooki Goto

Either way, this Devitt vs Tanahashi feud is all kinds of awesome. Love that promo from Devitt.
They should have done so much more with the Hart Dynasty. All three have big talent, but none have been shown on a decent scale outside throwaway matches. Tyson has looked very good against virtually everybody he has been up with, either it be someone huge like Tensai, small like Sin Cara, or his work with McGillibuddy. But before getting injured, I still don't remember much what he was doing as he was rarely on TV.
Natalya, self explanatory. DH Smith was a damn cowboy before he got let go.
Another guy they screwed up - twice - was Luke Gallows. Big man who does have talent and size, but was fit with a cornbread gimmick who was a silent rage, and that team went nowhere. Then became Straight Edge with CM Punk and basically jobbed all the time. Lot of these guys are just better off staying away from the WWE unless they're just interested in money.
I will be ordering it only because I have a couple people going in on the price with me. I wouldn't even think about paying that much otherwise.

Loved that main event, both guys really delivered -

Kinda surprised they're doing
so soon.
Awesome show overall, both the semis and the final were great, plus the CHAOS/Suzuki-gun 6-man and Devitt/Tana 8-man matches were a lot of fun.
totally thought Goto had it for a second there, but Okada pulls out the win with the Rainmaker
Kinda surprised they're doing
Tanahshi vs Okada IV

Pretty much. It's a systematic problem with the WWE and even if Triple H tried to turn things back around, enough damage has been done that it'd take years and years to fix it. Ideally, they'd go back to a system where wrestlers came up with their characters themselves, instead of just being given them. Maybe then we'd get more believable characters than the cartoon shit we get now.
Anyway, excellent main event. Excellent show. Perhaps not as good as the last two but it was still well worth my money and I really enjoyed it.

£25 per person at the sports bar for a table. Plus it's 20p wings night. Sorted.
Lol at Impact. Have they ever advertised that Spike puts up Impact on their website with in a day or two? And in way better quality than WWE has for any of their videos.
Anyway, Bully's 9 month plan is so silly. A8 is just so he could win the title? Why couldn't he just cheat like a normal heel and save all the trouble that such a long and complex plan would entail? "No one turns their back on my brotha." What about when Bully turned on him and beat up his nephews for months? Was that all part of the plan, perhaps? I'd think something like that would ruin a family relationship forever. All the guys who turned or joined make enough sense, since Hogan is a pretty shitty GM. But for the main goal just to get Bully Ray the championship is pretty lol. Not even trying to take over the company or anything. Just for Bully to get the title. He could have done that at any time just normally cheating.
I hope Abyss never, ever comes back. It's amazing that the TNA crowds have gone with Joe Park for so long. There is no way WWE crowds would allow for that. They'd immediately be chanting Abyss.
Why are Hulk's eyes always so bloodshot? Is he drunk most of the time or does he just have dry eyes? Why haven't people tried to get Brooke removed for clear and blatant nepotism? What experience does Brooke have to be put in her position? I also enjoyed Bully bragging about destroying the Hogan family as if it was something that hadn't been done repeatedly in public in the past 4 years.
