Nitro #260
Date: October 2, 2000
Location: Cow Palace, San Francisco, California
Attendance: 2,666
Commentators: Mark Madden, Scott Hudson, Tony Schiavone
Konnan/Rey Mysterio vs. Boogie Knights
That would be Disqo/Alex Wright of course. The announcers sound terrified that they could possibly be called the Boogie Knights in a semi-funny bit. This is a ladder match with Wright springboarding in to take over, allowing Disqo to crush Konnan with the ladder in the corner. Rey comes in with a Thesz Press using the ladder and puts the Knights inside and underneath said ladder, setting up an Atomic Arabian Facebuster to crush both guys.
The double Nutcracker Suite keeps the Knights down and Rey flip dives over the top to take Alex out. A Last Dance allows Disqo to climb (Hudson: “A last chance for the duck snatch!”) but Rey takes him down with a sunset bomb. Konnan climbs up and gets the Duck for the win in less than five minutes.
Post match the Knights beat the Animals down with the Duck.
Actor Chuck Zito is out for commentary.
The Cat has announced that Booker T. and Sting are the top two contenders instead of Jarrett and Steiner.
David has handcuffed the hooded guy to a dressing room rack. The hooded guy has some very large arms.
Shane Douglas vs. Mike Awesome
Tygress goes after Torrie post match and Konnan has to run out to save her from Shane.
Nash tries to give Sanders a pep talk to go after the Cat.
Video on Meng.
Sanders has fixed things somehow.
Meng vs. Goldberg
Slugout, Meng misses a kick, spear, Jackhammer, pin in less than 40 seconds.
David pours water on the hooded guy. You can see the same rope tattoo that Buff Bagwell has on his arm.
Jeff Jarrett/Booker T. vs. Sting/Scott Steiner
Things settle back down with Steiner clotheslining Booker and dropping the elbow. Booker gets tied up in the Tree of Woe but pops out like a daisy from the snow, setting up a spinebuster on Scott. Jeff comes in to stay on Steiner (still odd to see), only to get caught in a spinning belly to belly. Scott rolls over and makes the hot tag off to Sting as everything breaks down. The announcers try to figure out who is legal as Booker ax kicks Steiner. The side kick hits the referee (because of course) and Jarrett guitars Sting for the pin and the title match later.
Cruiserweight Title: Elix Skipper vs. Mike Sanders
Goldberg tries to leave but Terry Taylor tells him that he has another match tonight.
Goldberg vs. Harris Brothers
A spear and a Jackhammer give Goldberg two pins in thirty seven seconds, as in two seconds faster than he beat Meng.
The Thrillers are begging Nash for help, even though the simple answer would seem to be BEAT THE CANADIANS TO A PULP BECAUSE THERE ARE ONLY TWO OF THEM RIGHT NOW.
The World Title match will now be a 49ers match. There will be a box at each corner with the belt in one of them. Whoever finds it is the champion. So the title is being decided in a scavenger hunt. Also note that the other three boxes will have weapons. Remember that.
WCW World Title: Booker T. vs. Jeff Jarrett
Post match Steiner comes out to hit Booker with a pipe and put Beetlejuice in the Recliner to end the show.
