• Eddie Guerrero, Rey
Mysterio, Jr., and Kidman defeated Vampiro and
The Insane Clown Posse
with Kidman's Shooting Star Press.
- Eddie Guerrero, Rey
Mysterio, Jr., and Kidman dominated in the
beginning, as they
mainly worked on The Insane Clown Posse. Mysterio
hit the bronco buster.
Vampiro was soon tagged in, at which point he
and The Insane Clown
Posse were on top, as they wore down Kidman and
Mysterio. Guerrero was
in. After he took down Vampiro with a missle
dropkick, Kidman
followed up with the Shooting Star Press for the win.
• Chad Damiani
interviewed The Revolution at the Internet broadcast
position. Perry Saturn
guaranteed there would be a clean sweep in Shane
Douglas and Dean
Malenko's No Disqualification match with Hugh Morrus
and Brian Knobbs of
The First Family. The Revolution then abruptly left.
• Lenny (w/Lodi)
defeated Kaz Hayashi with a Full Nelson Slam, to
retain the
Cruiserweight Title.
- Lenny and Kaz
Hayashi wrestled a close match.
Lodi didn't interfere
as much as he usually
would. Lenny took the win out of nowhere with a
Full Nelson Slam.
• Sting Interview,
Conducted by Gene Okerlund.
- Gene Okerlund asked
for his thoughts on Lex Luger. Sting said Luger
was close to losing
any friendship they ever had. He said it was a
night that was huge
for him, as he would take on Hulk Hogan for the
Heavyweight Title. He
said if Luger interfered, it would result the
same way as it did
last week, where Sting decked Luger. He said there
was a comfort with
Hogan, since Hogan had proved himself over the past
few weeks. He said he
had no problem with Luger until they stepped in
the ring. Sting said
he knew Hogan was in the back watching, knowing
that he (Sting) was
back in black. He finished off the interview by
saying it was
"showtime."
• No Disqualification:
The First Family (Brian Knobbs, Hugh Morrus,
w/Jimmy Hart) defeated
The Revolution (Shane Douglas, Dean Malenko)
with Morrus' No
Laughing Matter Moonsault.
- Jimmy Hart got in
his shots, which were allowed, because of the No
Disqualification
rules. Brian Knobbs and Hugh Morrus worked on Shane
Douglas. As the match
went on, Knobbs went for his second top rope
splash finisher, but
Shane Douglas countered by lifting up his foot.
Douglas then tagged in Dean
Malenko, who was immediately taken down by
Morrus and finished
off with the No Laughing Matter Moonsault.
• Rick Steiner
defeated Perry Saturn with the Steiner Bulldog, to
retain the TV Title
- Perry Saturn and
Rick Steiner wrestled a stiff and long fight. At one
point, Saturn hit the
Death Valley Driver, but Steiner surprisingly
kicked out. Saturn
went for another, but Steiner countered. Steiner
positioned Saturn for
the Steiner Bulldog, but Saturn dropkicked him
down. On the second
attempt, Steiner successfully hit the maneuver for
the win.
• Backstage, Gene
Okerlund interviewed Hulk Hogan. Hogan said he was
tired of wrestlers
asking him if he was a phony. He said he just got
off the phones with
his kids, where he told them he wouldn't cross them
or Sting. Hogan said
he just didn't do things, he planned things. He
said he would says his
prayers and kick Sting's ass. He said he was
tired of the
accusations and would take care of Lex Luger if he got
involved. He said
Sting could trust him. Hogan swore there would be no
backstabbing.
• Berlyn (w/Bodyguard)
defeated Hacksaw Jim Duggan with a Reversed
Neckbreaker.
- Tony Schiavone
informed us that Buff Bagwell no-showed. Hacksaw Jim
Duggan was his
replacement. Duggan and Berlyn were shooting in this
match and not
following the script at all, according to Mark Madden on
the Internet broadcast
coverage (that doesn't mean it was an actual
shoot, it means they
were not cooperating well). After Duggan was
knocked down on the
exposed concrete floor on the outside, Berlyn
finished him off on
the inside with a Reversed Neckbreaker. Bagwell was
then shown in the
backstage area, arguing with booker Mike Graham.
Bagwell said his
flight was delayed and wanted Graham to change the
format. Graham said he
wouldn't do that. Bagwell then ran down to the
ringside area, where
he hugged Duggan, although Duggan refused to hug
back. Bagwell went to
grab the microphone, but before he said anything,
WCW went to a video
clip.
• Harlem Heat defeated
Kendall and Barry Windham (w/Curt Hennig) with
Booker T.'s Missle
Dropkick, to capture the Tag Team Titles.
- There were several
nearfalls in the match. In the end, Booker T.
battled Barry Windham
and Curt Hennig on the inside of the ring. Hennig
nailed Stevie Ray on
the inside with the cowbell, but the referee
couldn't count the
pin, since he was distracted by the action on the
outside. Booker then
climbed the top rope and nailed
Kendall with the
Missle Dropkick, to
let Harlem Heat become the nine-time Tag Team
Champions.

KIDMAN ON WRESTLETALK
AMERICA
Reported by Kevin
Jeffrey & Dave Scherer at:
http://www.1wrestling.com
Billy Kidman was a
guest Saturday night (9/11) on Wrestletalk
America.
Kidman did ask for his
release from WCW, but when the restrictions, not
being able to go to
the WWF, were placed and ECW was the only place he
could go, he
reconsidered his release request. He said the 3 years was
too long of stay and
longer than he wanted to be in ECW. Later he said
he would love the
opportunity to compete in the WWF, and commented that
in WCW you are
punished for getting over with the fans.
Kidman also said the
conversation he had with Bischoff in
Las Vegas was
the ongest he had with
him in the 3 years he has been in WCW. He gave
the standard "changes
have to be made" and went on to say it will be up
to the new management
to get older stars out of the way in order to get
younger stars
established. Kidman ripped on the use of celebrities
wondering why after
one celebrity failed they continued to bring people
in time after time. He
gave a vote of confidence when asked about Ric
Flair taking control
of the duties related to wrestling.
Craig Leathers,
according to Kidman, will be assuming most of the
duties for now. He
plugged the PPV and wasn't sure who he was fighting
(he was then reminded
he was involved in the match with Vampiro and
ICP). He commented on
Raven saying he wasn't really disappointed he had
left because they
didn't see eye to eye on many issues, but had no
problem working with
him professionally. All in all he didn't seemed
thrilled with the way
WCW is going.

crowd chanted of
course, but Goldberg brought Page back in. Page went
for the Diamond
Cutter, but Goldberg shrugged him down. Page pulled out
another foreign object
to take the advantage. Goldberg came back on
top, at which point
The Triad made their ways out. Bigelow nailed
Goldberg with some
