Monday Nitro – May 1, 2000: The One Where It Turns Into A Sitcom
Monday Nitro #238
Date: May 1, 2000
Location: Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex
Attendance: 3,635
Commentators: Mark Madden, Tony Schiavone, Bobby Heenan
Opening sequence.
Crowbar vs. Norman Smiley/???
The announcers talk about Arquette winning again with Tony calling it a great moment in sports entertainment. I know this is covering a lot of ground, but that might be the dumbest thing that Tony Schiavone has ever said.
Luger is still looking for Russo.
Stasiak is still shooting. Alone, as in most attempts at a record.
The Wall vs. Horace Hogan
Hugh Morrus vs. Scott Steiner vs. Jeff Jarrett
Bischoff fires the Misfits in Action except Lash, who is too stupid to know what fired means. Ok then.
Luger is posing in front of a mirror and Flair worships him ala Heenan at Wrestlemania IX.
Tank Abbott vs. Diamond Dallas Page
Page is stretchered out.
Hogan brawls with Awesome.
Kronik is arrested.
Stasiak is still shooting.
Russo yells at Liz so she slaps him. That means she won and Russo leaves. So Russo is a MAN who likes strong women? Who will likely join him later on so Russo can get the girl?
WCW World Title: Tank Abbott vs. David Arquette
We cut to the back to see that Steiner has knocked Jarrett out.
Hennig breaks up the free throw record with one shot to go. Much like with the graveyard: how did Hennig know which gym to go to?
Hulk Hogan vs. Mike Awesome
Hogan beats up Kidman, Awesome and the referee with the chair. A fan runs in but the bloodbath falls on Hogan, drawing in the New Blood for the beatdown to end the show.
