Nitro #227
Date: February 14, 2000
Location: Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale, New York
Attendance: 8,160
Commentators: Tony Schiavone, Mark Madden
The opening sequence cuts Madden off. I like it more already.
The announcers run down a pretty stacked card.
Lane/Norman Smiley vs. 3 Count
3 Count performs again. Even Madden is sick of them by this point.
Meng and Big Al “talk” in the back.
Tank Abbott vs. Rick Fuller
Jeff Jarrett is on the phone and demands that his match is for the title.
Vampiro/Kidman vs. The Artist Formerly Known As Prince Iaukea/La Parka
Nash says the main event will indeed be a title match.
Rhonda Singh vs. Mona
Post match Singh kisses Oklahoma, which is just so totally funny that I almost need to pause things to catch up on my laughing.
Flair calls Hogan an easy win and brags about his association with Luger and Liz.
Total Package vs. Terry Funk
Daphne and David Flair crash the reception and destroy a cake.
Tag Team Titles: Mamalukes vs. Harlem Heat vs. Crowbar/David Flair
Kanyon thinks Hollywood is a lot more awesome than New York, and he knows that Dustin Rhodes is a horrible actor.
Vito gets off the stretcher and yells a lot.
Hardcore Title: Bam Bam Bigelow vs. The Wall
The Mamalukes want an Italian stretcher match against Flair and Crowbar on Sunday.
Kanyon vs. Dustin Rhodes
Hogan threatens to bury Luger if he tries to interfere tonight.
Gene talks to “Booker T.”, who likes the Leave it to Beaver music because it keeps him motivated.
Booker vs. The Demon
Ric Flair vs. Hulk Hogan
Sid thinks Jarrett having to defend the title is hilarious.
US Title: Jeff Jarrett vs. Sid Vicious
A sleeper has Sid in trouble but he keeps one arm up to stay alive. Back up and Jeff dives into a low blow, followed by a big boot with Jarrett falling before any contact was made. The chokeslam looks to set up the powerbomb but we get a ref bump, allowing Jarrett to hit Sid with the belt for two because NO OLD PERSON WILL EVER GET PINNED. Jeff Strokes the referee but Sid breaks another one up and puts on the Crossface, drawing in the Harris Twins, allowing Jeff to hit the guitar shot for Mark Johnson to count the pin. Wow an old guy actually laid down, after two people interfered, a belt and guitar shot and a cheating referee.
