Wild 1999
Date: August 14, 1999
Location: Sturgis, South Dakota
Attendance: 5,500
Commentators: Tony Schiavone, Mike Tenay, Bobby Heenan
Tony talks about this history of Road Wild. As in the show that debuted back in 1996 (1997 if you consider Hog Wild its own show). Just printing his quotes are better than almost any jokes I could come up with.
Dead Pool vs. Eddie Guerrero/Rey Mysterio Jr./Kidman
Tag Team Titles: Jersey Triad vs. Harlem Heat
Revolution vs. West Texas Rednecks
Buff Bagwell vs. The Cat
We recap Benoit vs. Page. This is part of the Revolution vs. Triad/establishment feud with Benoit wanting to prove that he could hang with a former World Champion like Page. Benoit finally got his chance to win a singles title by beating David Flair for the US Title in a fair fight and now Page wants to beat him to regain his confidence.
US Title: Chris Benoit vs. Diamond Dallas Page
They slug it out to start and Benoit punches out of a helicopter bomb, knocking Page out to the floor.
. Benoit gets a breather off a jawbreaker and goes up, only to get caught in the Tree of Woe.
He knocks all three members together for a pair of falling low blows (ala Sting), setting up the Swan Dive to Page to retain the title, no thanks to the Revolution.
Sid Vicious vs. Sting
They head back to the floor with Sid dropping him throat first across the barricade and we hit that chinlock again because Sid needs air. Back up and Sting drops him with a shoulder, setting up the falling low blow (third time in two matches). Sting goes to run the ropes but Sid trips him from his back. Yes, somehow Sid has invented a way to wrestle while laying down. You knew someone was going to do it someday. Snake Eyes puts Sting down again but Sid goes up, only to get taken down with a superplex. Not that it matters as the Stinger Splash is caught by a chokeslam for the completely clean pin.
Goldberg vs. Rick Steiner
Dennis Rodman vs. Randy Savage
Back to ringside with Savage being thrown into the lighting structure before Dennis “hits” a middle rope “clothesline”, accidentally knocking the referee down. Gorgeous George comes out to the reaction of the match and hits Rodman low. She also gives Savage a chain to knock Rodman out for the pin to end this mess. Yes, Savage needed George and a chain to beat a basketball player.
WCW World Title: Hulk Hogan vs. Kevin Nash
