Location: North Charleston Coliseum, North Charleston, South Carolina
Commentators: Bobby Heenan, Tony Schiavone
Opening sequence.
We open with the usual clips from Nitro.
3 Count/Tank Abbott vs. Jung Dragons/Great Muta
Yang tries to pound on Tank but gets thrown across the ring. A wheelbarrow slam into a double facebuster has Yang in even more trouble but Muta makes a save and cleans house. Tank uses the circle to block the mist and the big right hand knocks Yang silly to give Evan the fast pin. So they bring Muta in for a two minute match where his team loses?
Stevie Ray is joining commentary. This could be good.
The Demon vs. Major Stash
Post match Sting (right) appears and points the bat at Vampiro and Demon.
Vito talks about how awesome he is.
Hardcore Title: Big Vito vs. David Flair
Perfect Event vs. General Rection/Corporal Cajun
Torrie Wilson/Shane Douglas vs. Crowbar/Daffney
Daffney takes a Franchiser (and takes it better) after the match.
Cat gives Awesome Rick Steiner tonight, even though Booker wanted the match.
Lance Storm vs. Kidman
Back from a break and Judy is in a neck brace and being taken away in an ambulance. Oh I would have loved to see her take that move.
Rick Steiner vs. Mike Awesome
Rick stays on him post match until Booker makes the save.
Positively Kanyon vs. Jeff Jarrett
Booker is on commentary and this is now the #1 contenders match all over again. Jeff gets an early two off a backslide and Kanyon gets the same off a small package. Kanyon is annoyed at the pace of the count (a very common complaint tonight) and has to settle for a top rope Fameasser. Jeff bails to the floor so Kanyon points at Booker, allowing Jarrett to get in a suplex on the outside. Both guys are whipped into a variety of metal objects with Kanyon getting the better of it.
Jeff and Booker yell at each other a lot to end the show.
