00:00:22Ladies and gentlemen of the press, it pleases me to officially announce

00:00:57That's not just a great American, that's a great man!
00:01:00Well, here we go.
00:01:01He had his own private stash.
00:01:02So choke on that, Bagwell.
00:01:04Nash and Page not only beat the perfect event, they beat the numbers.
00:01:07Got to give it to him.
00:01:08The natural born drill.
00:01:09The streak goes on.
00:01:11Goldberg is in another zone.
00:01:13Are you ready?
00:01:15This psychotic nut is going for the kill.
00:01:17Scott Stoddard is the world champion.
00:01:19The inmate runs the asylum.
00:01:22The problem with him.
00:01:23It Kadra has else previously performed in a captures control trick.

00:02:01Here we go!
00:02:02Five, four, three, four!
00:02:05It is WCW Monday Night Raw, and it's live!
00:02:13Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Rockford Online
00:02:17in the Metro Center, where for the next two hours
00:02:21you're locked in with the superstars of world championship wrestling.
00:02:25Tony Sivani, Scott Hudson,
00:02:27and the best-looking big man in all of television.
00:02:29Mark Madness, a new world heavyweight champion
00:02:33was crowned last night.
00:02:35It's big, pop-up, new world tag team champion.
00:02:39Cage and Nash, and a new United States champion as well.
00:02:43It's General Rekshin.
00:02:44What do we got in the ring here?
00:02:46We got a disgrace from the TPC.
00:02:48Good victory on our side.
00:02:51Three counts in the house once again.
00:02:55It's two out of three count.
00:02:57And remember, if you're not down with the three,
00:03:01then you just don't count.
00:03:03Hit our music!
00:03:05Shouldn't that be down with the two, then you just don't count?
00:03:08That's right.
00:03:09That's right.
00:03:10These guys are a hit music act.
00:03:13They're big-time entertainers.
00:03:14Who do you to question their slogans and so forth, Tony?
00:03:17They're late grades who are opening up the program,
00:03:19but they can't go with the bell rings.
00:03:22And we're gonna have a dandy of an opening match here on TNT,
00:03:26because here comes Loco Cajun MIA,
00:03:30members of the Misfits in action,
00:03:32and immediately all four men go out of here in the opening bout.
00:03:36What a night it was last night as we were in Milwaukee,
00:03:41just up the road from here for Mayhem 2000.
00:03:45We're gonna be talking about it through the entire night,
00:03:47but right now the action is fast and furious, Scott.
00:03:50When they script out the history of world championship wrestling,
00:03:54they're gonna highlight November 26, 2000 in Milwaukee.
00:03:58Scott Steiner got the monkey off his back.
00:04:01He is the king of the WCW Mountain.
00:04:04He is the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:04:06Got the monkey off his back, finally got the chance more like.
00:04:10When God in all his wisdom Hudson decided to create the perfect man,
00:04:14the perfect wrestler, the perfect champion, he created Scott Steiner.
00:04:18Last night, he made it formal for getting the belt.
00:04:21We are seeing a new harder edge to members of MIA, namely Loco and Cajun here,
00:04:27and they are taking the fight right to three count here.
00:04:31Stan Moore and Shane Helms, look at this, pick up.
00:04:34Boising the man up in the double team going on here in the corner.
00:04:38Needless to say, the World Heavyweight Champion is here tonight.
00:04:42And needless to say, the new World Tag Team Champions.
00:04:46Page, look at that.
00:04:47Page and Nash are here tonight as well.
00:04:49Here's a count of one, two.
00:04:50Only a two count, and it escaped that time by Stan Moore.
00:04:54You gotta catch the Mayhem replay on Pay Per View.
00:04:57It was so event filled, not the least of which Tony, Mark.
00:05:01What incredible three-way tag team dance with Jamie and Evan, three count,
00:05:06and the Young Dragons tore down the house in Brewtown last night.
00:05:10A company drive to head face first does Shannon Moore.
00:05:16There's no denying, here's a cover, one, two, no sir, and a kick out by Cajun.
00:05:21No denying that Shannon Moore and Shane Helms can go.
00:05:23Many people feel that they are now even a better team without Evan Courageous.
00:05:27That remains to be seen.
00:05:29I'm not gonna say better without Evan Courageous, but I am gonna say,
00:05:32here's a great double team of new, reminiscent of the Midnight Express.
00:05:37Shane and Shannon almost with a Vegematic-like move there.
00:05:40I'll tell you what, so what, this part of the game, you're breaking a four count.
00:05:45Three counts.
00:05:46Shut up.
00:05:47Anyway, Shane and Shannon, the up and coming young tag team at WCW,
00:05:52just like Scott Steiner, when they get a title shot, believe me, believe me,
00:05:57they'll make the most of it.
00:05:59Into the corner.
00:06:02Whoa!
00:06:03Corporal Cage, and no!
00:06:05Yes!
00:06:06Sugar Shane with the Sugar Smack!
00:06:08Tremendous extension.
00:06:09Shane is not only quick, he is deceptively powerful as well.
00:06:13And he sent Loco down enabling the double team on this end,
00:06:16as Charles Robinson, referee, tried to get Loco out of the ring.
00:06:20And here comes Shannon Moore.
00:06:22They can fly, they can do just about anything.
00:06:24And there is no question that they have to be considered top contender,
00:06:28for the world tag team title.
00:06:30Now, I know the world tag team champions are two of the great bettors,
00:06:33two of the biggest fans that we have in WCW right now.
00:06:36Look at that!
00:06:37What an incredibly marketable face!
00:06:40You can't overlook three-cat door, the new look of MIA straining with a tag, Loco!
00:06:48Got it!
00:06:49And he makes it!
00:06:50Here comes Loco right now!
00:06:51Lieutenant Loco!
00:06:53Look at the fire!
00:06:54And there's a DDT!
00:06:55He'll try to end it right now!
00:06:56Oh, and he almost did!
00:06:57That time Moore could not get out, or Helps could not get out, and Moore made the save.
00:07:01You know, I'm not a big MIA fan, I think they're numbskulls, but I gotta give Lieutenant Loco credit for the way he's picked up the intensity in the last couple weeks.
00:07:14They all have, and give the general credit as well.
00:07:18The referee!
00:07:19Being distracted by Corporal Kenji.
00:07:21That should've been a three-cat!
00:07:22That should've been a three-cat!
00:07:23That should've been a three-cat!
00:07:24Come on up there!
00:07:25That's Jamie Noble!
00:07:26And that's David Courageous!
00:07:27And there's a ladder!
00:07:28The ladder that they used last night in the three-way tag team match!
00:07:33Little revenge from last night!
00:07:35Oh!
00:07:36I couldn't believe what these two did with that ladder last night of mayhem!
00:07:39And now they're fixing to use it like a weapon again!
00:07:42Brain Buster time for number one, two, three!
00:07:45That's it!
00:07:46Wow!
00:07:47That's a harder edge for the Misfits in action!
00:07:50And mark it down, it's a W for the MIA!
00:07:55That is a monstrous win for MIA!
00:07:57They beat, in my mind, the best up-and-coming young tag team in WCW.
00:08:01That harder edge is serving them well, Tony.
00:08:04You can see it in their eyes, and we're just getting started.
00:08:07Back live on TNT, right after this!
00:08:10Hey, baby!
00:08:11You remember me?
00:08:12Enix!
00:08:13Felix!
00:08:14I don't have time to-
00:08:16Oh, come on.
00:08:17You know my name.
00:08:18What you still doing with him?
00:08:19You know what?
00:08:20I'm tired of your broke ass trying to talk to me all the time.
00:08:22Come on, Ms. Jones.
00:08:23What's up?
00:08:24What do you see in him?
00:08:25Why are you with him?
00:08:27Why are you with him?
00:08:29Hey, man.
00:08:30Let me tell you something.
00:08:31Oh.
00:08:32Oh, you remember me?
00:08:33I said I was gonna take your girl and your pride.
00:08:35Take my pride?
00:08:36That's right.
00:08:37I'll tell you what, here.
00:08:38Take the girl.
00:08:40Now, take my pride.
00:08:41I'll take your pride.
00:08:42You can't take my pride.
00:08:43First of all, Chump, let me tell you something here.
00:08:45I'm the greatest.
00:08:46I'll beat your ass any day, any time, young boy.
00:08:48You hear me?
00:08:49I'll rip your head off.
00:08:50Now, take my pride.
00:08:54That's why it's Team Canada.
00:08:56Bam!
00:08:57There's your pride.
00:09:01And the cat out-called in the backstage area.
00:09:04It is Team Canada fans.
00:09:06Welcome back to WCW Monday Night.
00:09:08Before we go any further and talk about what we've got remaining tonight,
00:09:11let's take you back last night to Mayhem 2000, courtesy of WCW Magazine.
00:09:17All eyes were on Booker and Scott Steiner for the match for the WCW title in KT.
00:09:22One of the most physical matches in recent memory.
00:09:24Steiner used his rage, his power, and exploited Booker's weak knee to capture the title last night.
00:09:31Booker T and Sting.
00:09:33Both of those names on the shelf compliments of our new heavyweight champion of the world, Scott Steiner.
00:09:39We ran down the litany of Sting's injuries last week.
00:09:41Booker T, internal injuries and a busted knee.
00:09:44He's gone for a while.
00:09:45He's gotta have that fixed up.
00:09:47Sting was to get a World Heavyweight Championship shot tonight, Tony.
00:09:51He won the London Lethal Lottery.
00:09:53That's out.
00:09:54Scott Steiner racking up bodies, Mark.
00:09:56Oh, boo-hoo-hoo.
00:09:59You win world titles by any means necessary.
00:10:01What I say is see the power.
00:10:03See the power of the superstar new champion, Scott Steiner.
00:10:07The guy I feel bad for is our broadcast colleague, Stevie Ray.
00:10:11He had to sit out here last night with us while his brother was broken in half.
00:10:15He couldn't do anything about it.
00:10:17And I do feel bad.
00:10:18Stevie Ray had a very tough time emotionally last night.
00:10:21The emotional toll did take its measure on our broadcast colleague, Stevie Ray,
00:10:25who went to the ring to check on his brother at the end of the match last night.
00:10:28And the new World Tag Team Champions are here as well.
00:10:30Simon Dallas Page and Big Sexy Kevin Nash.
00:10:32The veterans are back and better than ever.
00:10:34They've got Tag Team Gold after what went down in mayhem, Tony.
00:10:38And we're going to the ring to meet Gene Oakland to continue Monday Nitro.
00:10:42Gene, take it away.
00:10:43Thank you very much, Tony.
00:10:44Last night in neighboring Milwaukee, history was made.
00:10:48And a new champion was crowned.
00:10:50And with that, please join me in welcoming to Rockford, Illinois,
00:10:55the new WCW Heavyweight Champion of the World.
00:11:00Big pop-up of Scott Steiner!
00:11:04Yeah!
00:11:05Well, you know, when you think about it and you really try to analyze this,
00:11:09regardless of what you think of Scott Steiner, if you like him, if you hate him,
00:11:14the fact is he has been in WCW for a number of years.
00:11:20Tag Team glory was always his.
00:11:22This last night and here tonight, the pinnacle Scott of his career.
00:11:26A man about to enter his 13th year in World Championship Wrestling at the Major League level.
00:11:33A professional wrestling finally reaches the apex.
00:11:36He is the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:11:38There are those that when Scott Steiner broke in out at the University of Michigan
00:11:42thought this was his birthright.
00:11:43It was inevitable.
00:11:44He's had shots before Mark Madden.
00:11:46He came up short, but he's got the goal now.
00:11:49The bottom line is, there's no recount necessary.
00:11:52After last night's mauling, demolition, destruction of Booker T,
00:11:57Scott Steiner is the World Heavyweight Champ, the Genetic Freak Rules, Psycho Killer, Tess Casse.
00:12:03You left a lot of carnings last night at Mayhem in the form of Booker T.
00:12:09He was a great champion.
00:12:10You know, me and Gene, I really appreciate all these fans standing up and giving me an ovation.
00:12:20But to be quite honest with you, when I walk down that aisle, you fans, you need to close your eyes, get on your hands and knees, pucker up, and kiss the champ's ass.
00:12:32Madden beat him to it.
00:12:36Shut up.
00:12:37Now last night, I proved that I only care about two things, my freaks and my peaks.
00:12:44And when I put the hammer down on Booker T, I went back to my hotel room to a chorus line of freaks all horizontal and looking for satisfaction.
00:12:57And there I was, standing there with nothing on but my boots and my belt.
00:13:08And believe me, I sent sweet sensations up and down their spines all night long until they called me the Big Bad Booty Daddy.
00:13:19He is the greatest man alive.
00:13:23And as I was in my sexual sanctuary, I got my mind and my body re-energized.
00:13:30And I came here tonight looking for a fight.
00:13:36But there's no Booker T in the back looking for a rematch.
00:13:40There's no Sting, the number one contender, looking for a title match.
00:13:47Because I sent their both asses to the hospital.
00:13:50He's right about that.
00:13:52So I said, who's left?
00:13:54Goldberg?
00:13:56Hell, Goldberg's still punch-drunk for the last fight I was in.
00:14:02Whatever happened to the Saiyan?
00:14:04It's easier to get to the top than staying there.
00:14:05Not when you're me when you take son of a bitches out.
00:14:09He knows about the streak and the stipulations for Goldberg.
00:14:11So I came here tonight with no opponent because they're all afraid.
00:14:15I probably won't have one for a while.
00:14:16Probably not even to Starrcade.
00:14:17So I'm going to give you fans a treat.
00:14:22Get down on your knees, close your eyes, pucker up, because you're going to get a chance to kiss the champ's ass.
00:14:30Tony, Scott, go ahead.
00:14:46It's a game show?
00:14:47Hey, he deserves it.
00:14:48He deserves his ass kiss by a lot more people than just the fans.
00:14:53Uh-oh.
00:14:54This guy should kiss his ass.
00:14:55This guy held him back.
00:14:56How dare you say that?
00:14:57How dare you say that?
00:14:59How dare you say that?
00:15:01Well, Ric Flair can kiss his ass because Scott Steiner's the champ.
00:15:04The CEO who set the standard for being champion,
00:15:09and might I add, set the standard for partying after winning the world title as well.
00:15:14Oh, yeah.
00:15:15Steiner can't touch him on either accord.
00:15:19Scott Steiner, congratulations.
00:15:24Let me be the first to tell you that as world heavyweight champion, you are the man.
00:15:33How about that?
00:15:37I told the wrestling world that whoever walked out of man, be it you or Booker T,
00:15:43you would become the flagship of this company, and that you are tonight.
00:15:49Scott's a battleship, not a flagship.
00:15:54We are going to build the greatest wrestling company in the world around the greatest world champion right now.
00:16:04That's Scott Steiner.
00:16:06Wow.
00:16:07Ringing endorsement from the CEO.
00:16:09He is kissing his ass.
00:16:11But Scott, I've got to explain something to you.
00:16:13Along with all that notoriety comes responsibility and a lot of perks.
00:16:20But one of the perks is not the ability to call your own shot.
00:16:26It's never been that way.
00:16:29I have been on the phone all day long because I want you to prove again and again that you are the man.
00:16:37And I've got an opponent on his way here right now.
00:16:42Woo!
00:16:43In a learget.
00:16:44To wrestle you at Starrcade.
00:16:49He's going to come out here tonight and explain all about himself to you.
00:16:54Normally, I'd be walking back there and I'd be saying good luck to some poor kid walking down to wrestle you.
00:17:05At Starrcade, I will knock on your dressing room door and I will say, champ, good luck to you tonight.
00:17:13Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:17:15Who you got?
00:17:16Booker T.
00:17:18Sticking their asses in the hospital.
00:17:20Archery the Giant.
00:17:21He's dead.
00:17:22Who?
00:17:23Steve Austin.
00:17:24When he was at WCW, I kicked his ass.
00:17:28Here we go.
00:17:29Booker T.
00:17:30And The Rock, he don't have the balls to show up here.
00:17:35If you smell it, we're not cooking.
00:17:40Lock the tank.
00:17:41Let me assure you that the gentleman coming tonight is in the same elite class as those two.
00:17:49And at Starrcade you'll find that out.
00:17:52Who is he talking about?
00:17:53Now, second thing on the agenda.
00:17:55Who could it be?
00:17:56WCW World Heavyweight Champion is conduct.
00:18:00It'd be very hard for me to tell you how to win or lose based on my career.
00:18:06I did a lot of things wrong.
00:18:08But as CEO, I'm gonna tell you right now, you're not gonna run wild.
00:18:13Booker T is in the hospital right now.
00:18:16He may never wrestle again.
00:18:18Wow.
00:18:19Because of you.
00:18:20Wow.
00:18:21Wait a minute.
00:18:22We got company.
00:18:23No, no.
00:18:24No, no.
00:18:25Yeah, we have.
00:18:26Look at this.
00:18:27What are you doing out here?
00:18:28What are you doing out here?
00:18:29Tony?
00:18:30I just punched your brother's ass.
00:18:31What are you gonna do?
00:18:32You don't have a fight tonight?
00:18:34You know what he's doing out here, Madman?
00:18:36I retired your brother.
00:18:38You ain't got nothing off of it.
00:18:39You're not making your own match here.
00:18:41I come out here to fight somebody tonight.
00:18:46Get that punk ass jacked up.
00:18:48Synthetic Fruit Booty in the ring.
00:18:50And we get it on tonight, punk.
00:18:51No, no, no, no.
00:18:52Excuse me.
00:18:53You wanna talk to him, you can talk to him.
00:18:55But you're not making your own matches either.
00:18:58This company's running on guidelines.
00:19:00You wanna wrestle him, you talk to him about it.
00:19:02We'll make a match.
00:19:03But it ain't gonna happen right now.
00:19:05If this sad sack ass Fruit Booty got the guts.
00:19:09Punk, do to me what you did to my brother.
00:19:12You jacked up Fruit Booty.
00:19:14I'm here to come to get in your ass tonight, punk.
00:19:16Alright.
00:19:18Stevie Ray, you're just a punk ass announcer.
00:19:22What do you got to offer me?
00:19:24What do you got to go against the belt?
00:19:26You don't have nothing.
00:19:28I'll tell you what.
00:19:29I'll tell you what.
00:19:30Since I ended your brother's career, how about we do this?
00:19:34The world title against your career.
00:19:38What?
00:19:39Whoa, hang on.
00:19:40That's strong.
00:19:41Stevie is real emotional right now.
00:19:43You don't wanna do that.
00:19:44Don't even think like that.
00:19:45You don't want that.
00:19:46Blair's right.
00:19:47I want you to do your job.
00:19:50I will put my career up against Scott Fruit Booty and Steiner tonight.
00:19:55If he's got the guts.
00:19:57Oh, Stevie.
00:19:58I want it right now tonight.
00:19:59What are you doing now, sucker?
00:20:01That's all emotion now.
00:20:02I tell you what, it's gonna be a pleasure to beat both you guys.
00:20:05I want it.
00:20:06I want it.
00:20:07You make it.
00:20:08It ain't gonna happen now, but if you wanna wrestle him for the world title tonight,
00:20:13the match will take place right here.
00:20:16Rockford, Illinois.
00:20:18And it's career on the line.
00:20:21Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:20:22I just got one other thing to say.
00:20:24You're always talking about your freaks.
00:20:26How you gonna feel when you be my 285-pound freak tonight when I get through with your punk ass?
00:20:32Oh, hello.
00:20:34Coming up later on on Nitro.
00:20:37Suck those guts to die.
00:20:39Featuring Stevie Ray.
00:20:40The Scott Steiner's gonna put another husband and brother in intensive care.
00:20:45And it is going to be a very emotional night for Stevie Ray.
00:20:49One night after his brother has come to the hospital.
00:20:52His career will be on the line tonight.
00:20:55Hey, what happened last night?
00:20:57Hold on.
00:20:58We paid for seven minutes and 30 seconds, and that's what we got.
00:21:01But I'm still in excruciating agony, and we're gonna need your help tonight.
00:21:05How much is it gonna cost us?
00:21:06Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, hold on, guys.
00:21:08Don't tell me, all right?
00:21:10Just write it down this piece of paper, okay?
00:21:12Okay.
00:21:13You're gonna like this number.
00:21:16Try to impress me.
00:21:17Oh, yeah.
00:21:26That's a fair price.
00:21:27What?
00:21:28That's ridiculous.
00:21:29That's more than the last three times combined.
00:21:31Oh, that's ridiculous.
00:21:33Guys, guys, hold on.
00:21:34I mean, is this price negotiable?
00:21:37Not a class.
00:21:38No.
00:21:39Take it or get to stepping.
00:21:41I'll have to get to stepping, man.
00:21:43I can afford it.
00:21:44Don't let the door hit you in your ass.
00:21:45Out of my back.
00:21:46Bye-bye.
00:21:47General Rexhan, congratulations.
00:21:50You defeated Lance Storm last night and once again became U.S. champion.
00:21:54Pam, everything I said I was gonna do with Mayhem, I did.
00:21:58We took the war to Team Cannon and we won.
00:22:00But I couldn't have done it without the fans and I couldn't have done it without the misfits.
00:22:05We've won the battles.
00:22:07We won the war.
00:22:09The games are over.
00:22:10It's time to get serious.
00:22:12But if you think I forgot about a little piece of business last night, Bam Bam Bigelow, you sold out to Lance Storm.
00:22:20And that means your ass is now mine.
00:22:23You say you're the beast from the east.
00:22:25You've never faced a machine like the MIA.
00:22:29You give them hell tonight.
00:22:31You remember, take no prisoners.
00:22:33And by any means necessary.
00:22:36Bigelow, you say you're a Jersey boy?
00:22:39You forget we come from the same neck of the woods.
00:22:42Let's see what you got.
00:22:44General Rexhan versus Bam Bam Bigelow tonight.
00:22:49As we look in the ring, we've got that match tonight.
00:22:52We are seeing Lea Miao grabbing poor Yang as they walked to the ring earlier.
00:22:59And now await the arrival of Team Canada.
00:23:03Hey, hey, Lea Miao's just giving Quang a peppercorn, Tony.
00:23:07Get your copy of WCW backstage installed for PlayStation 1.
00:23:11It puts you in the middle of the action, the action anywhere in the ring.
00:23:14You pick your favorite superstar and you fight everywhere.
00:23:17Backstage, in the restroom, in the parking lot.
00:23:20It's available just in time for Christmas.
00:23:22Backstage assault for PlayStation 1 from Electronic Arts.
00:23:25Now here is a real hero.
00:23:27Not her, not the tramp.
00:23:28I'm talking about Lance Storm.
00:23:30To me, the unrecognized Canadian champion.
00:23:33General Rexhan beat him fair and square.
00:23:35But the man has badly hurt ribs.
00:23:37Complained in a celebrity hockey game.
00:23:39And he still perseveres.
00:23:40He is a real true blue Canadian hero.
00:23:43If I can be serious for a minute.
00:23:451,001, 1,002.
00:23:50Shut up.
00:23:51I'm not out here to complain about what happened last night at Mayhem.
00:23:57I think cry is the better word.
00:24:03I wrestled last night with four broken ribs.
00:24:08But that's no excuse.
00:24:10That's right.
00:24:11The fact of the matter is, everybody gets lucky eventually.
00:24:17Rexhan, this ain't over.
00:24:20Somewhere, somehow, I'm gonna get you.
00:24:26Well, yes, it is over, too.
00:24:28Remember the stipulation?
00:24:29But right now, I need some respect.
00:24:31All rise for the playing of my Canadian national anthem.
00:24:37Hey, Hudson, he says everybody gets lucky sooner or later.
00:24:40Aaron, you haven't gotten lucky in years.
00:24:44What's your point?
00:24:45There is no point.
00:24:46Oh, hang on a minute.
00:24:47But Yang's got a point as he attacks the former Canadian U.S. titman from behind.
00:24:53Hooks on to the waist and almost gets the three count.
00:24:57Yang has come to fight.
00:24:59And I think that was the right move right there.
00:25:01Jumpstarting the match.
00:25:02He's going right to the ribs.
00:25:04That's unfair.
00:25:05He went right for his bad ribs.
00:25:06That's unsportsmanlike.
00:25:07That's out of Team Canada's playbook, and you know it.
00:25:10Yang has given Lance Storm everything he wants.
00:25:13I thought his name was Clang.
00:25:15It is Yang.
00:25:16That's the name.
00:25:17And he has jumpstarted this one.
00:25:19Look at the agility of Yang landing on his feet.
00:25:22Ducking low.
00:25:23You've got to wonder about the emotion.
00:25:25Oh!
00:25:26Or maybe the middle states of Lance Storm.
00:25:29Maybe that with a punctuation mark on that statement.
00:25:33Lance Storm is always calm, always cool, always in control.
00:25:37He's a true champion whether he has a belt or not.
00:25:40And right now is when Yang would be looking to make a tag out
00:25:43to another member of the Young Dragons and Kazuyoshi.
00:25:46You count and Yang kicked away.
00:25:49The fact is he is a former champion.
00:25:52General Rickson and the newfound attitude of the MIH.
00:25:55He is the champion right now.
00:25:57And he has sent out a challenge.
00:25:59And the man who brutally attacked him in a gigantic swerve last night.
00:26:03Bam Bam Bigelow for a US title defense here tonight on this program.
00:26:08These two men involved in mayhem.
00:26:10You can see the replay starting tomorrow night at 8 PM on Pay Per View.
00:26:14That unbelievable three-way tag team dance.
00:26:17We saw Yang with the corkscrew springboard from the arena ring to the floor.
00:26:21Sunset Flip got him down.
00:26:24And a headbutt to Booth.
00:26:26Yang falls off and nails it.
00:26:29Blocked.
00:26:30Got him again.
00:26:31Yang seems wobbly, but now look at these punches.
00:26:34Into the ribs.
00:26:35Into the ribs.
00:26:36It drives him down on the back.
00:26:38He has spoken his attack on the ribs.
00:26:40You can hear Storm screaming in pain.
00:26:43Here's the cover.
00:26:44No.
00:26:45He kicked out.
00:26:46Very close to an upset victory.
00:26:48Hey, this Klang's wrestling a good match.
00:26:50I give this Klang all the credit in the world.
00:26:52He's this close to being a superstar.
00:26:54But as you saw there with that great counter, Lance Storm is a superstar.
00:26:58Maybe he got those four crank ribs last night against General Rexha.
00:27:02Yang is just so slippery.
00:27:05One, two, and a roll through, and a two count.
00:27:07What great chain, technical wrestling.
00:27:09But if Klang thinks he's gonna beat Lance Storm, go into X's and O's,
00:27:13go into technical ecstasy, he's sadly mistaken.
00:27:16Lance Storm tries to fend off the efforts here of Yang.
00:27:20He's up in the middle, up on the top, turned back up, and a movesaw.
00:27:24One, two.
00:27:25No.
00:27:26He almost beat him.
00:27:27I think Yang's knee flipped the former U.S.
00:27:30Canadian champion right in the head.
00:27:31Lance Storm is wobbling.
00:27:33What an upset this would be.
00:27:35Wait a minute, Major Guns.
00:27:40Uh-oh, there's Leia.
00:27:41Leia on Major Guns.
00:27:43And the referee is focused down on the woman.
00:27:45Hang on.
00:27:46She's spanking Major Guns.
00:27:48Wait a minute.
00:27:49Major Guns, not enough of that.
00:27:51Wait a minute, what we got here?
00:27:52Hang on a minute.
00:27:53It's the cat, careful with some payback.
00:27:54What's the cat doing here?
00:27:55You saw what happened earlier.
00:27:56No.
00:27:57God will kick.
00:27:59The heel kick caught the table.
00:28:01Or caught the chair.
00:28:02Caught the forehead.
00:28:03Late third down.
00:28:04One, two.
00:28:05No.
00:28:06He beat him.
00:28:07He got him.
00:28:08Yang has pinned Lance Storm.
00:28:10The cat got his revenge.
00:28:12But Yang got the one, two, three.
00:28:14Unbelievable.
00:28:15Now hold it, hold it.
00:28:16The cat beat Lance Storm.
00:28:18And he did it through chicanery, through a sneak attack.
00:28:21That clang kick got lucky as hell.
00:28:23He'll go down the winner of the record bucks in a major upset.
00:28:26Here on TNT.
00:28:29Where the hell were you?
00:28:31Let me be stranded up there.
00:28:32Did you see what happened?
00:28:33Wait a minute, Lance.
00:28:34I thought you could take care of that yourself out there.
00:28:36We're supposed to be a team, Jim.
00:28:37Hey, don't yell at me.
00:28:39Your uncle's here too.
00:28:40Yell at him too.
00:28:41You're the senior man.
00:28:42You're the best.
00:28:43I expect more out of you.
00:28:44You're the veteran here.
00:28:46No, I know what I'm doing.
00:28:48I understand that.
00:28:49I know what I'm doing.
00:28:51I'm confident that I can do this.
00:28:53And I'm telling you right now, when I do it,
00:28:55he'll know when it's over.
00:28:57I'm telling you right now.
00:28:58Who's he talking?
00:28:59Let me do this.
00:29:00I got the situation in hand.
00:29:01And I'm gonna do it regardless of what anybody's saying.
00:29:03Got that?
00:29:04He's gonna do it tonight.
00:29:05I don't know.
00:29:06Who is this?
00:29:07Maybe he's insurance agent.
00:29:08You guys want to get back on TV?
00:29:10No.
00:29:11No.
00:29:12Just kidding, man.
00:29:13What do you need?
00:29:14We're gonna need a favor.
00:29:15Don't cost you.
00:29:16Again?
00:29:17How much?
00:29:18Drink and a sandwich.
00:29:21You have to learn to negotiate, man.
00:29:26Two drinks, two sandwiches.
00:29:28That's all they're charging?
00:29:30Woo-hoo!
00:29:31You got a deal.
00:29:32Oh!
00:29:33Hey, bring it to the ring.
00:29:34We'll bring it to the ring.
00:29:35We will.
00:29:36Considerably less than the services of chronic two drinks and two sandwiches.
00:29:40Drinks and sandwiches.
00:29:41And didn't he want to be back on TV?
00:29:44Wow.
00:29:45Well, they got the services of the Harris Brothers for literally a song and a dance.
00:29:50Drinking a sandwich.
00:29:51Here's a man who came dangerously close to eliminating Bill Goldberg last night.
00:29:56He looks better than ever.
00:29:58He's wrestling better than ever.
00:29:59Right ahead.
00:30:00A recent scientific study showed that Lex has the body fat of a brick.
00:30:05A brick, and that's all.
00:30:060.5% body fat.
00:30:08Okay.
00:30:09It lowered every show, it looks like.
00:30:11And why is he so happy?
00:30:13For a man that took a spear and just became another number in the streak last night at Mayhem.
00:30:18Hey, hey, hey.
00:30:19Look what he's getting.
00:30:20He went the distance, just like Rocky.
00:30:22With the distance, Rocky lost in the first move.
00:30:28Well, maybe Lubro winning the sequel, just like Rocky.
00:30:31You jackass.
00:30:32Please.
00:30:35Fans, don't forget the new start time for Thunder each and every Wednesday, 9 o'clock, straight up 9 PM.
00:30:41Thank you very much.
00:30:42On TBS.
00:30:44Are you gonna sing?
00:30:46This is a glorious moment for each and every one of us this evening.
00:30:51It's party time in World Championship Wrestling.
00:30:56Must be a Scott Steiner fan.
00:30:58This is the official announcement tonight of the end of Bill Goldberg's streak.
00:31:05The end of Goldberg's career here in World Championship Wrestling.
00:31:10What the hell is he talking about?
00:31:12What is he talking about?
00:31:13Lex, what are you talking about?
00:31:14Please, please.
00:31:15Y'all can thank me later.
00:31:17I have something to say.
00:31:19Boy, do you ever.
00:31:21This is the biggest announcement in the history of professional wrestling and the crowning achievement for all the total packages accomplished in his career.
00:31:30Better than world titles.
00:31:32Better than world tag team titles.
00:31:35Better than every single thing.
00:31:38US titles.
00:31:39Better than all the large homes I own.
00:31:41My huge financial portfolio.
00:31:43My expensive cars.
00:31:47All that means nothing to me in comparison to this.
00:31:52Because I did a huge favor for professional wrestling last night in Mayhem and I'm gonna get my justice.
00:31:59What is he?
00:32:00He's flipped.
00:32:01When Bill Goldberg viciously and maliciously speared poor Mickie J, a fully sanctioned referee for WCW, he committed the mortal sin.
00:32:18He lost by disqualification.
00:32:20I did what I said I could do and Bill Goldberg, you're out of wrestling.
00:32:24Now I've appealed to Ric Flair, the CEO.
00:32:27He says he's restore Lord and honor in WCW.
00:32:31He says he's gonna put some teeth back in the rule book.
00:32:34Well, I've read the rule book.
00:32:36And Goldberg, you're out of here.
00:32:39Now wait a minute.
00:32:40Goldberg won the match last night.
00:32:42Of course he did.
00:32:43Well, now hold it.
00:32:44Hold it.
00:32:45Maybe it's like the NFL.
00:32:46Maybe you get a recap or an instant replay.
00:32:47The appeal has been officially made.
00:32:49I demand an answer tonight from CEO Ric Flair.
00:32:53He's assured me that'll come down.
00:32:56And ladies and gentlemen, this is the crowning moment for the greatest mesomorphic physical specimen.
00:33:05The most intelligent athlete World Championship Wrestling has ever seen.
00:33:10This is the retirement party night of Bill Goldberg.
00:33:14Thank you very much.
00:33:15Now, does he have a point?
00:33:17Does he have something?
00:33:20We gotta take this seriously, guys.
00:33:23If he's gone to Flair, there's a connection between Luger and Flair.
00:33:27I'm wondering.
00:33:29Could Goldberg's career be over?
00:33:32Hey, he refuses to lose.
00:33:34He's like Al Gore.
00:33:35Absolutely, he is.
00:33:37As he walks out, we're looking out back here.
00:33:40A limousine is pulled up.
00:33:41Could this be the man Ric Flair signed to face Steiner at Starrcade?
00:33:45His arrival is imminent.
00:33:46His arrival is imminent.
00:33:47But stay.
00:33:48Who is it?
00:33:56Hey, I'm the mouth of the South Jimmy Hart, the greatest wrestling manager in the world.
00:34:00And this goes out to all of you radio DJs out there.
00:34:03I mean radio personalities.
00:34:05Quit hiding behind your microphones and wrestle me on a Monday Nitro.
00:34:09Be part of Jimmy Hart's Stand Up or Shut Up World Tour.
00:34:13Just call World Championship Wrestling.
00:34:15But remember, don't call Collect.
00:34:26Chosen one, Jeff Jarrett.
00:34:27Well, hello, Jurassic Slap Ass.
00:34:29Hey, Num Nuts, I'm conducting this interview.
00:34:31I want your comments on Mayhem and your match tonight.
00:34:34with Rey Mysterio Jr.
00:34:36Just answer the questions.
00:34:37Or you can blow it out your ass.
00:34:39Whoa-hoo.
00:34:40I guess somebody forgot to take their Geritol this morning.
00:34:43And the correct way to say that is slap nuts, not num nuts, you damn slap ass.
00:34:49Anyway, at Mayhem last night, Bagwell found out the hard way
00:34:53why the chosen one is the superstar with all the stroke around here.
00:34:57And tonight, I'm gonna keep the roll right on going.
00:35:00Cause I'm gonna take, I'm gonna move on to bigger and better things.
00:35:03Not necessarily bigger.
00:35:04Ha, cause I'm gonna take that munchkin Rey Mysterio and beat his ass.
00:35:07Hey, what the, what the hell is going on here?
00:35:09I'm gonna take them filthy animals if they try to get in my way.
00:35:12What the, Oakland?
00:35:13What the, Oakland?
00:35:14What the?
00:35:15Hey, wait a minute.
00:35:17Hey, what?
00:35:18What the hell is going on here?
00:35:20The filthy animals are throwing eggs at Jarrett.
00:35:22They're egging the chosen one?
00:35:24They're egging the chosen one?
00:35:25Oh, blow it out your ass, Oakland.
00:35:27For Jeff Jarrett.
00:35:29All right, make sure you got enough money, all right?
00:35:32All right, I told you.
00:35:33All right, you got the cell phone, you got the keys to the car.
00:35:35Yes, Vito, yes.
00:35:36All right, listen, tomorrow we're gonna go see Father Karma,
00:35:39we're gonna go by the church, do a couple of confessions,
00:35:41you know what I'm saying?
00:35:42All right, I gotta go, all right?
00:35:43All right, all right.
00:35:44Be careful, all right?
00:35:45I'll talk to you later.
00:35:46Vito and his sister Marie, who was instrumental in last night's hardcore match
00:35:50when she showed up unexpectedly.
00:35:53Who's she looking for here?
00:35:54Hey, where'd Goofy go?
00:35:55He left.
00:35:56He left, huh?
00:35:57You mean I actually get to talk to you by yourself now?
00:35:58All right, whatever.
00:35:59Yeah, whatever.
00:36:00Come on, I gotta match.
00:36:01I gotta talk to you.
00:36:03Hold on a minute.
00:36:04We're going.
00:36:05All right, we're gonna show you, here's last night,
00:36:08the spear that Luger's talking about on referee Mickie J,
00:36:11in between Luger and Elbert.
00:36:14He clearly speared Mickie Jakes right there in the photograph.
00:36:17Luger was right.
00:36:18Luger was right.
00:36:19Luger was right.
00:36:20Luger is right.
00:36:21The fact, though, that Goldberg got his hand raised last night.
00:36:24That's what counts.
00:36:26Exactly.
00:36:27We'll see what Ric Flair says.
00:36:29Luger asked us to show you that photograph from last night,
00:36:33and it made it.
00:36:37The replay, the Encore team,
00:36:39begins tomorrow night.
00:36:41And it's only on pay-per-view.
00:36:43And now, here come Noble and Courageous team last night,
00:36:48and they've had an impact in the show already here tonight.
00:36:51Well, I don't think that this team is firing on all cylinders as a team.
00:36:55Two tremendous athletes, but they're kind of thrown together
00:36:59in the aftermath of the explosion of Three Count of the Young Dragons.
00:37:03First off, I want to say one thing.
00:37:05You guys are whistling in the dark, whistling in the graveyard, if you will.
00:37:10That photograph that just appeared on the TV screen is proof positive that Bill Goldberg should have been DQ last night,
00:37:17and that his career in WCW should be over, and Lex Luger got the job done.
00:37:23Let's go ahead and recount yourself in Broward County.
00:37:27The fact of the matter is, Goldberg got his arm raised last night in Milwaukee.
00:37:32The streak continues.
00:37:33End of story.
00:37:34Yeah, but is Goldberg here tonight yet?
00:37:36Does he know about this-
00:37:38Achtung, Achtung!
00:37:39This protest from-
00:37:40The Boogie Nights are in the house!
00:37:42The Total Package.
00:37:43All right, don't give the mic the bugle deep.
00:37:46Shut up, you stupid American.
00:37:48Yeah, man.
00:37:49And now listen to my great partner and injured friend, Disco.
00:38:00You're probably wondering what's in the bag, and no, it's not a load of crap.
00:38:05Actually, it's the payment for our replacements tonight, so come on out and get your payment, boys.
00:38:12No, the load of crap's under the cowboy hat.
00:38:15And it's holding the bag.
00:38:16We all had that light at the same time.
00:38:18Here they come.
00:38:21Didn't want to be back on TV, but, you know.
00:38:24Hey, they should have held up a sign.
00:38:27We'll work for food and beverage.
00:38:30Ron and Don Harris.
00:38:32At least they got over their desire to not be on TV.
00:38:35I give them a lot of credit for that.
00:38:37What kind of sandwich is it?
00:38:38A couple of sandwiches, a couple of beverages, and they seem to be happy.
00:38:43Come in, come in, come in.
00:38:45And the ham and cheese in there.
00:38:48And a couple of drinks.
00:38:49I think they're gonna roast beef, too.
00:38:51Brucey.
00:38:52All right.
00:38:53Looks like it's gonna be Ron Harris.
00:38:58It is.
00:38:59Big Ron and Alex Wright as Heavy D sits down at ringside near Disco and watches on here.
00:39:07Right up against the newly formed team of Melbourne and Perretas.
00:39:11The Bickersons, if you will, into the rope.
00:39:14Too much size there, guys.
00:39:16Hey, hey, the Harris boys are great as a team.
00:39:20They're great one at a time.
00:39:22They're great no matter how you slice it.
00:39:24Man, you have seen the limousine pull up to the arena here in Rockford, Illinois.
00:39:29We are awaiting the arrival of a man who will face Steiner's cover.
00:39:34And a two count is saved by Noble.
00:39:36The man who will face Scott Steiner at Starrcade at the MCI Center.
00:39:41Alex Wright picking his spots very carefully.
00:39:45He came in only after Ron Harris had destroyed Evan Courageous.
00:39:49Alex Wright elevates Evan over after sending him hard into the neutral corner turnbuckle pad.
00:39:54Alex Wright has been very, very impressive over the past month or so.
00:39:58And he's had basically to do it alone.
00:40:00Oh, look at that.
00:40:01Great balance.
00:40:02Hang time by Evan Courageous.
00:40:04Big Papa Pump, a fighting champion.
00:40:07We don't know who he'll fight at Starrcade.
00:40:09We may find that later tonight.
00:40:11But we know it's Big Papa Pump and Stevie Ray tonight.
00:40:14One member of Harlem Heat down, one more to go.
00:40:18Stevie Ray's career on the line against the World Heavyweight Championship tonight here on Nitro.
00:40:25Jamie Noble kicking, big Ron out of the corner.
00:40:27He turns around, Noble's up on top.
00:40:29Great maneuver, almost bulldogged him down.
00:40:31Hit the back of his head, but he only got a one count and what a massive kick out that one.
00:40:36He may have broken a jaw right there.
00:40:39He may have broken a boot.
00:40:41Who's got it?
00:40:42The jaw of Jamie Noble.
00:40:45Cover, one, two.
00:40:47And a save by Evan Courageous, all Evan could do that time.
00:40:50What a stiff kick that launch from Big Ron.
00:40:54Courageous comes off the top springboard.
00:40:56There's the showboating that he did the three count run with Courageous part of three man.
00:41:01Look at this.
00:41:02And Noble.
00:41:03And Evan driving a Cadillac honking a horn, talking on the phone with his homie.
00:41:08And Noble getting very frustrated, rightfully so, about Evan's showboating.
00:41:12Double dropkick.
00:41:13Sends the man back to the corner.
00:41:14And now working as a team here.
00:41:16All of a sudden, Noble hits some sense into the head of his partner, Evan Courageous.
00:41:21But a big run on the other end.
00:41:23Jamie Noble using the quickness now to try to get around this big man.
00:41:27But a secure size looks like an eighth hand out of here.
00:41:31Or maybe not.
00:41:32Jamie Noble again.
00:41:34That's as a takeover.
00:41:35Now wait a minute.
00:41:36Press for meeting the payoff.
00:41:38It's Heavy Day.
00:41:39Oh, an H-Bomb.
00:41:40Good night.
00:41:41Yeah.
00:41:42Yeah.
00:41:43I love that H-Bomb, baby.
00:41:45And a cover by Alex Reich.
00:41:47One, two, three.
00:41:49It's unbelievable.
00:41:50Handicap.
00:41:51Handicap got you three on two.
00:41:53Shut up, Hudson.
00:41:54One, two, one.
00:41:56Hey, it's a good thing Germany didn't have the H-Bomb 50 years ago.
00:41:59What a deal this was.
00:42:00Two sandwiches, two beverages.
00:42:01One victory.
00:42:02And it worked out much better than what Rodney was doing for him.
00:42:06A big win for Boogie Nights.
00:42:08Whoa.
00:42:09Look at this.
00:42:10The World Tag Team Champions are coming to the ring and we're coming back.
00:42:24This has got to be a rib, don't you think?
00:42:29Is this yet another production glitch?
00:42:31What now?
00:42:32I thought Glacier melted.
00:42:34I was hoping anyway.
00:42:37Are they serious?
00:42:42It can't be.
00:42:43Glacier set to return again.
00:42:48We're looking out once again live.
00:42:50Who's inside?
00:42:51Who will be Snyder's opponent at Starcade?
00:42:53We're going to find out on this program.
00:42:56And right now, here's Ric Flair.
00:42:58Hi, I'm Ric Flair, CEO of WCW.
00:43:01In light of Lex Luger's charges that Bill Goldberg be disqualified for
00:43:05spearing referee Mickey Jay last evening at Mayhem,
00:43:08which as we all know would have ended Bill's streak and his career,
00:43:12I have made this official decision.
00:43:16I have been reviewing the tapes all day and weighing the options,
00:43:19and this is what I saw.
00:43:21Under normal circumstances, Lex Luger would be correct.
00:43:25It would be a DQ.
00:43:27But what Lex Luger conveniently failed to mention is the fact
00:43:31that he pulled referee Mickey Jay in the way of the spear.
00:43:36If it wasn't for Luger, the referee wouldn't have been in harm's way.
00:43:41As a result, I have the grounds to DQ Lex Luger for putting his hands on the referee.
00:43:47However, like I've said in the past, WCW is about winning and losing.
00:43:54I made that very clear to everyone last night.
00:43:57After talking to Bill Goldberg today,
00:43:59there's no way that Bill would like this match to end in a DQ.
00:44:03So I have made the following decision.
00:44:05At Starrcade on December 17th,
00:44:08Lex Luger and Bill Goldberg will meet one last time to decide who is the winner.
00:44:14We will find out then if Bill Goldberg's streak will continue,
00:44:18or if his streak will come to an end with his career.
00:44:22I'm Ric Flair, CEO of WCW.
00:44:25Thank you and enjoy the show.
00:44:27So there it is from the CEO, The Nature Boy, Ric Flair.
00:44:32They're standing here at Rockford, tailing in the new world tag team tangents.
00:44:36We're gonna get a rematch between the total package and Goldberg on December 17th.
00:44:43Well, I'll tell you what, Ric Flair, I've said that in his case,
00:44:47CEOs did cheat early in offense.
00:44:50But he made a wise and just decision.
00:44:53That match shouldn't end in his EQ for either man.
00:44:56The streak should be about wins and losses, period.
00:44:58Match for the world tag team final last night has not switched.
00:45:01Mr. Mike Sanders had the thrillers around the ring as security.
00:45:04But Ric Flair put the brakes on.
00:45:06Banished the NBA team in the end.
00:45:08DDT and Kevin Nash became the world tag team champion.
00:45:13And here comes Simon Dallas Page, Scott.
00:45:15It's come full circle.
00:45:17Ten years after these men teamed up.
00:45:20When Kevin Nash, I'd say, had a different identity.
00:45:24They are back together as a team, full force with the World Tag Team Championship.
00:45:30Why is Page wearing a leather mask?
00:45:33Page wearing a leather mask, what do you mean?
00:45:36I'm sorry.
00:45:38There's her.
00:45:39Next few weeks, we'll be talking about Diamond Dallas Page.
00:45:42We'll be involved in a yearly Christmastime event.
00:45:45He and Kimberly will be reading Christmas Classics and the Kicks Country Classics at the Mall of Georgia.
00:45:51Tuesday, December 19th from 7 to 9.
00:45:54The event will benefit the Children's Restoration Network and Toys for Tots.
00:46:00Will she be bringing her igloos along?
00:46:02Calm down, the champ wants to speak.
00:46:05This is an incredible tag team.
00:46:08Good luck dethroning these Twin Towers.
00:46:11Blackbird, Illinois.
00:46:16DDP and Big Sexy most definitely in the house.
00:46:31I got you right here.
00:46:33We want to send a real special shout out to a buddy of ours.
00:46:37Hey, yo!
00:46:43Survey says...
00:46:44We want Hall!
00:46:45We want Hall!
00:46:46We want Hall!
00:46:47We want Hall!
00:46:48We want Hall!
00:46:49We want Hall!
00:46:50We want Hall!
00:46:51Hey, the survey says we want Hall.
00:46:53You know, a lot of people don't know, if you started watching the last five years,
00:46:58that when DDP was a manager, I used to manage Scott Hall.
00:47:01Where is this going?
00:47:04Little point of interest.
00:47:05And when I first started tagging out, me and Kevin Nash used to tag together as the Vegas Connection.
00:47:11And we, we sucked.
00:47:19They said, I told you we're going to have fun.
00:47:22They said that the three of us were never going to make it.
00:47:25But, after time goes by, Hall and Nash hook up, and they form the most devastating tag team of all time, the Outsiders.
00:47:34Mr. Humility, Kevin Nash.
00:47:37Oh hell, bring the guy back, I gotta say it.
00:47:39So, how many degrees of separation is that?
00:47:42How many degrees of separation is that?
00:47:45Seven degrees of separation.
00:47:47If Hall and Nash were the Outsiders, that means that me and you must be the Insiders.
00:47:54And one thing I know, that you know, that I know, that you know, that I know, that you know, that I know, that you know,
00:48:00I got your back.
00:48:02And this Insider is going to stick around until this company smartens up and brings the other Outsider back.
00:48:09Oh wait, is this mic on?
00:48:16Sorry.
00:48:17We haven't said this in a long time.
00:48:21We're on the air.
00:48:22We're on the air.
00:48:24But what DDP just said is absolutely just too sweet.
00:48:35Now on the last night.
00:48:39Wait, it couldn't be, could it?
00:48:43Actually, no, it couldn't be, but let's see what happens.
00:48:45Well, this shocked Kevin Nash as much as anyone.
00:48:50The Wolfpack theme music hit once again.
00:48:52It's your music.
00:48:54That's the only way you guys are gonna pop is coming out to our music.
00:49:00What's the meaning of this?
00:49:01That actually worked.
00:49:02And coming out.
00:49:03The commish lane balance shut up.
00:49:12Kevin, you know, you two are just like the rest of these people here in Rockford.
00:49:20A bunch of cheese whiz sucking trailer trash individuals.
00:49:24Please come up with a new cliche.
00:49:26We're in cheese country.
00:49:28Stop playing with yourself.
00:49:29Let me tell you something Dallas.
00:49:30I figure you've been sitting at home for the last six months getting a big fat paycheck.
00:49:35You turn on the TV one night, you're watching Nitro, and you see that the natural born thrillers
00:49:40are the absolute, and I mean, absolute hottest thing going.
00:49:45You see, you see we got Kevin Nash riding our coattails.
00:49:55So you figure for the last three weeks, you'd come back and ride his.
00:49:59Let me tell you something Dallas, hell, at least Ric Flair knew when his time was up, he
00:50:06had to respect for us seasoned veterans to step aside and get a damn office job.
00:50:12Seasoned veterans?
00:50:13He's delusional.
00:50:14He's delusional.
00:50:15Now let me tell you this, don't go getting too comfortable with those two belts.
00:50:22I'm going to tell you right now, because at Starrcade, you will be defending them belts
00:50:29against the natural born thrillers, Gendrack and O'Hare, two of the most genetically jacked
00:50:33individuals in this company.
00:50:37Hey, Monkey, you ain't got to wait till Starrcade.
00:50:41Bring those two genetic jacked monkeys down here right now.
00:50:44Hold on a minute.
00:50:45Here they come, it didn't make Gendrack and O'Hare long, and we've got it right now.
00:50:50Former tag team champions going up against the newly crowned men.
00:50:55Gendrack and O'Hare can do it.
00:50:57They're young, but they're only one of the best tag teams ever.
00:51:00If anybody can beat Nash and Paige, it's definitely Gendrack and O'Hare.
00:51:05And they're all over the champions right now.
00:51:07Say it, Cody, they're all over.
00:51:09Are the titles on the line here?
00:51:11Are we talking about a tag team title match right here?
00:51:14If it's up to me, yes.
00:51:15That's what they were talking about, Scott.
00:51:17Look at the agility of shadow hair from the top.
00:51:21Good shot and a big knee lift in the face of Kevin Nash,
00:51:25taking the fight right to Big Sexy to coach Kevin Nash.
00:51:29We just saw a six foot six, 270 pound guy do a backflip and then get all over Big Sexy.
00:51:37Mr. Mike Sanders did better make this for Starrcade, but Diamond Dallas Page to bring him in right now.
00:51:43This is for the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:51:46One day long from Nash and Paige to be the perfect event.
00:51:51Well, we know now that this match isn't gonna happen at Starrcade.
00:51:55It's happening right now.
00:51:56What we do know is that Scott Steiner will defend the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:52:01But against who?
00:52:02Who is in that limousine?
00:52:04Who has Ric Flair brought in to face the Big Bad Booty Daddy?
00:52:09Oh, boy.
00:52:10Nash is on the roll now.
00:52:11He has four moves.
00:52:13Oh!
00:52:14That hurt.
00:52:15Oh, that hurt me.
00:52:16He hit with that arm so hard.
00:52:18Into the corner.
00:52:19Shot O'Hare hits hard.
00:52:20Look at DDP.
00:52:21Pushed on top.
00:52:22DDP.
00:52:23Oh!
00:52:24We thought his energy nicely done instead of going up top.
00:52:27Lazy Mount with the clothesline.
00:52:28One, two.
00:52:29Great adjustment done by DDP.
00:52:32On the air attack to the ground and the mule kick.
00:52:35Stop.
00:52:36Diamond Dallas Page and he's tracks that time and a tag to Jindrak.
00:52:40Jindrak.
00:52:41Comes off the top.
00:52:42Very strong legs.
00:52:43One, two.
00:52:44Springboard from the top.
00:52:46Got the two count that time.
00:52:48And DDP now finds himself on the receiving end of assault.
00:52:52By members of the NVT.
00:52:54We're talking about the former tag team champions of the world.
00:52:58In Mark Jindrak and Sean O'Hare.
00:53:00The thrillers and the insiders.
00:53:02The new champs, Page and Nash.
00:53:05Is it possible that this title reign of Diamond Dallas Page and Kevin Nash
00:53:11is gonna be only 24 hours long?
00:53:14Remember, they have a lot of resources.
00:53:16They're the natural born thrillers in their numbers.
00:53:19Double Team Page thrown to the turnbuckle pads now for a third time.
00:53:26This one breaks the count.
00:53:28And you know the thrillers have something up their sleeve.
00:53:31It's 2-1-2 right now.
00:53:32The Sanders is around.
00:53:34The other NVTs are around.
00:53:35They have a lot of tricks up their sleeve.
00:53:37They used them the other night at Mayhem.
00:53:39You can see them on the replay.
00:53:40You can see it before the night's over, I'm sure.
00:53:42Pick up to the world.
00:53:43That's there.
00:53:44Head scissors.
00:53:45Good hook on that time by Giddy P.
00:53:47How many more great title defense?
00:53:49Does Diamond Dallas Page have left inning?
00:53:51One, two.
00:53:52Oh, man.
00:53:53Sean O'Hare with the elbow drop.
00:53:55Will this be the night for the Young Lions?
00:53:57The National War Thriller to dethrall the new Tag Team Champions.
00:54:01Sean O'Hare pulls Big Sexy on the outside.
00:54:04Page with a knee and the gut.
00:54:07Front chance reapplied.
00:54:08Diamond Cutter.
00:54:09That's it.
00:54:10Count the man out.
00:54:12One, two.
00:54:13Wait a minute, Doc.
00:54:14He kicked on.
00:54:15He kicked on.
00:54:16He kicked on.
00:54:17He kicked on.
00:54:18He kicked on.
00:54:19He kicked on.
00:54:20He kicked on.
00:54:21He kicked on the Diamond Cutter.
00:54:22He no more kicked out than you did, Madden.
00:54:23He was pulled out by the Cavendish.
00:54:25Yeah.
00:54:26Hell yeah.
00:54:27Drop the strap.
00:54:28Man.
00:54:29Stasia Palumbo with baseball bats.
00:54:32And now we know this is the resources we were talking about.
00:54:36The number's too great.
00:54:37Hey, hey, yo.
00:54:39If you're listening, get here in a hurry.
00:54:41Wait a minute, the referee is still down.
00:54:43Still, Page fighting in the ring with Mark Tindrak.
00:54:47Now, Page on the outside.
00:54:51Who's that coming through the back?
00:54:54Nobody, sorry.
00:54:55The insiders, the tag team champions, and the referee, Billy Serverman.
00:54:59And a heap outside the ring.
00:55:01The carnage of the natural born brother.
00:55:03What are we going to do with this match?
00:55:04The referee is out.
00:55:05The referee is out.
00:55:07Now, as you look at Page, the referee down.
00:55:11Nash again, you see the perfect event.
00:55:15They've stolen the world's tag team belts.
00:55:19Well, possession is going to catch the odds.
00:55:21Oh, it most certainly is not.
00:55:23Oh, gosh.
00:55:25Stevie Ray, I was shocked at the challenge that you made earlier on.
00:55:30After what Scott Steiner did to your brother last night at Mayhem,
00:55:33you have challenged him tonight, putting your career up against his title.
00:55:38You know, Gene, I will do anything I have to to get my hands around that
00:55:43Zack Zack Cracker Jack Scott Steiner's neck.
00:55:46Steiner, you're gonna pay for what you did to my brother.
00:55:49And Gene, come Starcade, he might not know who Ric Flair has in store for him.
00:55:55Can you dig what I'm saying, sucker?
00:55:57All right, it is gonna be title versus career tonight.
00:56:00Scott Steiner meeting Stevie Ray.
00:56:03Watch out.
00:56:04And that's coming up later in this telecast.
00:56:06A reminder, next Monday, one week, we're gonna be in Lincoln, Nebraska,
00:56:10pushing out of Torium for Nitro Thunder only one night.
00:56:13We'll see you there.
00:56:14Tickets available at the usual ticket locations.
00:56:17Don't forget, tickets available for Starcade Sunday December 17th at the MCI Center.
00:56:22In the nation's capital, watch their tickets, box office, and all usual ticket locations,
00:56:27of course, including tickets last year.
00:56:30We already know Goldberg and Luger return round.
00:56:33Gonna take you back to last night, it was three the hard way.
00:56:36Big Vito, Reno, and Crowbar with a hardcore title.
00:56:40Well, as expected, the match did go to the backstage area, but out of nowhere,
00:56:44there was Vito's sister, Marie.
00:56:46She stopped Reno from attacking Vito, and thus enabled Crowbar to hold on to hardcore gold.
00:56:52Still the hardcore champion, we see now Reno and Marie scouting the backstage area.
00:56:57I'm sure Big Vito's got some questions for Reno making time with his sister, the beautiful Marie.
00:57:03Here comes the man himself.
00:57:06It is Goldberg time!
00:57:08I wanna put forth a little theory here.
00:57:10Reno, a veteran street fighter, but not a veteran of the squared circle to be sure.
00:57:15However, he has the most electrifying finishing move right now in WCW, the roll of the dice.
00:57:21It comes out of nowhere, it's quick, it's powerful, and it puts people down for good.
00:57:25I'm not gonna suggest that Reno can compete on even terms with Goldberg for a long match,
00:57:31but I am gonna say, hey, one time, one minute, one move, Reno could do it.
00:57:36The streak is on the line.
00:57:39Here, Reno, find the sport, and he's gonna rock Rockford right now.
00:57:45Reno awaits in the ring for the man, the phenom, the one-man wrecking crew.
00:57:51He is Goldberg!
00:57:54Tonight, Goldberg looks to continue the streak.
00:57:56Tomorrow night, he'll be in Oak Park, going on.
00:58:00He'll be signing his new book, I'm Next, and ordered books and music in Oak Park, beginning at 7 p.m.
00:58:07This Thursday, Goldberg's gonna be in Plano, Texas, at Sands Club, at noon, signing the book, I'm Next.
00:58:14And then this Thursday night, Walden books and Hurst, Texas, beginning at 7 p.m.
00:58:19finding the new book, which is a great stocking sucker, I'm Next, by Bill Goldberg.
00:58:26It's a great book, Tony, but Reno, with one roll of the dice, could write the last chapter tonight.
00:58:33It's gonna be quite a challenge, exactly right.
00:58:36Mark Madden for Reno, but Reno now goes down hard from two stiff right hands from Goldberg.
00:58:45Made it last night.
00:58:48No!
00:58:49Have we seen Reno manhandled like this ever?
00:58:52I mean, Goldberg knocked him right out of his shorts.
00:58:56Reno may crap out here, in fact.
00:58:58I smell something, may have happened already.
00:59:00The streak continues, he's gonna try to open by one.
00:59:03Here, look at the power!
00:59:05Look at the power!
00:59:06Oh, Reno at 260 at least, dropped like a bad habit.
00:59:13Goldberg, who made it 25-0 last night, even though Luger disputed the claim.
00:59:21Tries to open one more at 26-0.
00:59:24Reno's got him!
00:59:25Reno's got him!
00:59:26Throwing the dice!
00:59:27Uh-oh!
00:59:28Goldberg hired Adam!
00:59:29Can you believe what I see?
00:59:30Oh, my God!
00:59:31He picked him up!
00:59:32He picked him up!
00:59:33He not only countered the roll of the dice, but he turned it into an offensive move!
00:59:38Oh, no!
00:59:39Oh, no!
00:59:40Don't get him!
00:59:41Oh, my God!
00:59:42Speared!
00:59:43Oh!
00:59:44He countered the roll of the dice!
00:59:47Threw him around the ring!
00:59:49Speared him!
00:59:50Reno is out!
00:59:51Listen to the people, the people going nuts for Bill Goldberg!
00:59:55No matter how many times we see the man, you can't help but be impressed by the way he overpowers everybody!
01:00:02Take it, though!
01:00:03Up and down from the jackhammer!
01:00:06One, two, three!
01:00:08Goldberg, the force of the spear!
01:00:11He went not only through Reno, he went up and over!
01:00:15Oh, no!
01:00:16Oh, no!
01:00:17Oh, no!
01:00:18My God!
01:00:21Ric Flair made the announcement, Luger did not get his way!
01:00:26Goldberg bought the chair in the back, and now Luger!
01:00:30No!
01:00:31They're gonna try it again!
01:00:32It's dark, eh?
01:00:33Luger's not gonna wait!
01:00:34You know, that chair has more body fat than Luger, by the way!
01:00:38Luger's single in for the round!
01:00:40Luger had a plan!
01:00:41Here's the next step of the plan!
01:00:43To eliminate Goldberg!
01:00:44No!
01:00:45No!
01:00:46He is cracking Goldberg!
01:00:48Good God, he wiped him out with the chair!
01:00:50And threw him back against Reno!
01:00:51That's what a man Luger is!
01:00:53What a coward!
01:00:54Tried the cheap way out two times tonight!
01:00:57Look at this!
01:00:58No one has ever done this to Goldberg!
01:01:01No one has ever done it!
01:01:02He could not hear Luger come in because of the crowd noise!
01:01:06And now, he may be putting some serious injuries!
01:01:10Get in there!
01:01:11For God's sakes, break it up!
01:01:13Hey, no matter how Lex put Luger, no matter how Lex put Goldberg in that position,
01:01:18the bottom line, he put Goldberg in that position!
01:01:21Goldberg was vulnerable to Lex Luger!
01:01:24Goldberg was vulnerable to Lex Luger!
01:01:27Look at Goldberg now!
01:01:28He is out!
01:01:29You said it right, Scott!
01:01:30He is out!
01:01:31He is out!
01:01:32He is out!
01:01:33He is out!
01:01:34He is out!
01:01:35Filthy animals!
01:01:39I almost soiled myself after what you guys did to Jeff Jarrett!
01:01:44But on the other hand, you Rey Mysterio are gonna have to get into the ring tonight with Jeff Jarrett!
01:01:49Was that Jeff Jarrett me?
01:01:51We thought it was Gomer Pyle!
01:01:53Well, you know what, Jeff?
01:01:55Gomer, whatever you wanna call yourself, it's all the same crap.
01:01:58This is what I'm gonna do to you tonight.
01:01:59I'm gonna take off my horns and shove them right over here!
01:02:02Hey!
01:02:03Wait a minute, my dear!
01:02:04We don't need no more heat with standards and practices, but I got a question.
01:02:06Yo, Billy, what do you think about Jeff's personality?
01:02:09Well, I kinda...
01:02:10That's what I thought.
01:02:12Hey, country cranberry, king of public access TV.
01:02:15You talk about having all this personality, maybe you would if somebody turned you towards the light and wired you periodically.
01:02:21Tonight it's gonna get filthy.
01:02:22Orale!
01:02:23All right, Rey Mysterio, Jeff Jarrett, right here tonight on Nitro.
01:02:28Thanks a lot, Pete.
01:02:29And also tonight, we will find out who will be the man to go after the world title coming up in Starcade on the 17th of December.
01:02:37We already know Stevie Ray tonight will go after Scott Steiner, winning his career on the line against Steiner.
01:02:45And the title, and here comes the beast from the East, Ban Ban Bigelow.
01:02:50And it was a busy night for Ban Ban last night.
01:02:53You'll recall he took out Mike Austin before their match, so he met Sergeant AWOL instead.
01:02:58Then he collapsed, had to be taken down by EMP, but it was a well orchestrated setup.
01:03:03Oh, I know it wasn't.
01:03:04Bigelow rose up, attacked General Richards prior to the US title matchup last night in Mayhem, but the General won anyway.
01:03:12And that's why the General won at Bam Bam here tonight.
01:03:16Bigelow was either hurt badly, or he's a great actor.
01:03:19He's a great actor.
01:03:20He's a great actor.
01:03:21He's a great actor.
01:03:22He's a great actor.
01:03:23Don't forget, backstage assault for Nintendo 64.
01:03:2721 of the most intense wrestling games on the market.
01:03:30The fact is you wrestle your opponent in unique environments,
01:03:33general 14.
01:03:34He can wrestle in the back alley.
01:03:36Logan Ducks, and Ethan.
01:03:38You ready for this?
01:03:39Get the women's back.
01:03:41Matt, you know that area pretty well, don't you?
01:03:43That's any of your business.
01:03:45He's going to be in the back.
01:03:46She's a great actor.
01:03:47Here comes the new champion.
01:03:50General Richards representing the best fits in action.
01:03:54And Bam Bam Bigelow, sport to have a heart attack, you have to have a heart.
01:04:00Bam Bam Bigelow gave an Academy Award worthy performance last night.
01:04:05Okay, I admit it.
01:04:06He was acting.
01:04:07But what a great act.
01:04:08Give him credit, Hudson.
01:04:09You come out here and act like you're a professional announcer every week.
01:04:13And you should know.
01:04:16Enough of that.
01:04:17Bigelow does have all the ability in the world to become the United States champion over General
01:04:23Rex, who has shown so much heart, so much desire, so much intestinal fortitude, if you will.
01:04:29And now he and the beast from the east are slugging back and forth for the U.S. heavyweight title that we can safely say is back in the hands of the United States of America once again.
01:04:40And a man who leads the misfits in their newfound attitude, guys.
01:04:46After what went down last night at Mayhem, Lance Storm's days as United States heavyweight champion are over.
01:04:53That was the last shot Lance Storm has done.
01:04:56He needs to concentrate on the women's title or something else, Mark Madden.
01:04:59Last shot against Hugh Morris.
01:05:01Lance Storm will find a way, a way I tell you, to get that Canadian title back.
01:05:06I guarantee it.
01:05:07Why is Hugh Morris dressed in tights with question marks on?
01:05:10What happened to the MIA thing?
01:05:12There's an MIA logo on each hip.
01:05:15There's a lot of hip, so that's believable.
01:05:17How could you miss it?
01:05:18Back, please.
01:05:19Back to the corner, into the midsection now.
01:05:22General Rickson is his name, and he's being assaulted here by the Beast from the East.
01:05:27Bam Bam Bigelow, who has been one of the great hardcore competitors in WCW, but
01:05:33certainly would love to hold on to the U.S. title.
01:05:37And if Bam Bam gets the title, it's gonna be very difficult to get it away from him,
01:05:41I can tell you that.
01:05:42Both these guys are real wrestlers.
01:05:44The hardcore thing, to me it's passe, just my opinion.
01:05:47I like seeing these guys trade holds, trade blows, and really go in here and wrestle.
01:05:52And that's what made General Rickson great.
01:05:54Now he's just wrestling.
01:05:55And frankly, for a guy his size, there aren't too many better.
01:05:58Bam Bam Bigelow at over 400 pounds, the General at 320 plus.
01:06:03We got a lot of beef in that ring, bouncing around in Rockford, Illinois.
01:06:06A lot of beef, not many teeth.
01:06:08Who is going to be the man who was flown in here by Ric Flair, CEO on a Learjet.
01:06:16Shut up!
01:06:17Who is, he is outside, apparently in a limousine.
01:06:20We will reveal the man who will go into Starrcade to five for the WCW title.
01:06:25And if Stevie Ray has his way, it's going to be Stevie Ray, who will be fighting tonight
01:06:29against Scott Steiner with a tremendous amount of emotion.
01:06:33Knee to the gut of the General and the feats from the East now in charge.
01:06:38You know, I got to wonder.
01:06:39Hang on a minute, Madden.
01:06:40I got to wonder.
01:06:41General Rickson is the United States Heavyweight Champion.
01:06:43And by all right, Tony, shouldn't that make him the number one contender for the world title?
01:06:48By all right?
01:06:49Yo, yo, we're on national TV, not Georgia Championship Wrestling.
01:06:52Regional, J-Bro.
01:06:53Come on.
01:06:54It don't work that way anymore.
01:06:55It won't be you, Morris.
01:06:56Excuse me, General Rickson.
01:06:58It won't be General Rickson.
01:06:59Oh, what a suplex.
01:07:01He hoisted Bam Bam Bigelow off the mat.
01:07:04Oh, he's going upstairs now.
01:07:06Going upstairs.
01:07:07Oh, no.
01:07:08Oh, no.
01:07:09Bigelow hit his head.
01:07:10You see him holding his forehead.
01:07:12I don't think he can move.
01:07:14Wow.
01:07:15Once again, it was a setup.
01:07:17Another.
01:07:19So anyway, forget about that US title number one contender crap,
01:07:22because nobody cares, Hudson.
01:07:24Bottom line, what intrigues me, Flair said,
01:07:26Look at this, look at that.
01:07:29A powerbomb on General Rickson.
01:07:32That's 320 up.
01:07:33Flair said, whoever's in the limo,
01:07:35whoever's gonna challenge Steiner and Starcade,
01:07:37Wait a minute.
01:07:38Is gonna scare Scott Steiner.
01:07:40Who in the hell would scare Scott Steiner?
01:07:43I don't know who could, I don't know.
01:07:45It looks like he's going for a table.
01:07:47He is.
01:07:48Table wrapped up in a camera cable.
01:07:50But he's still in.
01:07:51Look at this hardcore stuff.
01:07:53What?
01:07:54You lame brain.
01:07:55Look at this.
01:07:56He is setting the table up.
01:07:59And in the ring, General Rickson cannot get to his feet.
01:08:05He got rocked by that powerbomb from Bam Bam Bigelow.
01:08:09You gotta go hardcore, baby.
01:08:11If General Rickson can't take it, you should get out of the kitchen.
01:08:15Look at this.
01:08:16It's, it's Sergeant AWOL.
01:08:17Wait a minute.
01:08:18He's got the table and Bigelow sees AWOL.
01:08:20That's not a deal.
01:08:21That's not a deal.
01:08:22That's not a deal.
01:08:23That's not a deal.
01:08:24Last night AWOL came in.
01:08:25Oh, wait a minute.
01:08:26The General with the knee into the big massive back of Bam Bam Bigelow.
01:08:31AWOL who was cheated.
01:08:33Oh no.
01:08:34By Bam Bam Bigelow.
01:08:35Tony, close some space for me.
01:08:37All right, here comes.
01:08:39With the mock above that.
01:08:40My fat ass floor.
01:08:42No.
01:08:43He connects with Bigelow.
01:08:44One.
01:08:45Two.
01:08:46And General Rickson stole the foolish heavyweight team.
01:08:50A contender of a ranging flyback.
01:08:53Val Beckery for General Rickson.
01:08:56How about what Hussard did for the General?
01:09:00Spoiled the efforts of the table.
01:09:02And Bam Bam Bigelow, stay where you are.
01:09:05All right, Big Papa Pump, if you could just hold the phone just a second here.
01:09:12After what you did to Booker T last night, Stevie Ray says he's going to put it all on the line.
01:09:18His career against your title.
01:09:20See, Booker T, he lied to the fans.
01:09:22He lied to everybody.
01:09:23He said you'd have to kill him to take the belt.
01:09:25Pry his cold dead hands from the belt.
01:09:28He lied.
01:09:29Stupidity.
01:09:30He obviously runs in the family.
01:09:31Because I ended Booker T's career.
01:09:33I'm going to end Stevie Ray's career tonight.
01:09:35Okay, one more thing.
01:09:37Have you heard anything further about Stargate?
01:09:40Who are you going to be defending the title against?
01:09:41I really don't give a damn who Flair gets.
01:09:44I'll tell you what, cameraman, follow me.
01:09:46Follow me right now.
01:09:48There's a member out here, Gene.
01:09:51Follow me.
01:09:52He's going to the limousine.
01:09:53We're gonna have a confrontation.
01:09:54I've always wanted somebody to do this.
01:09:56Let's not wait till Stargate.
01:09:58Let's have Big Papa Pump kill this guy right now.
01:10:01Who is it?
01:10:02Who's in the limo?
01:10:03Whoa, what do we have here?
01:10:05Safe on the bell cast.
01:10:07Hey, hey, what you doing?
01:10:09Who owns these ugly bitches?
01:10:12This memo belongs to Mr. Nature Boy.
01:10:14It's crazy, all the ugliness coming out of here.
01:10:17I got limos coming in all night at the airport.
01:10:19If you want a limo, I'll get you one.
01:10:20But this limo belongs to Nature Boy, Rick Fly.
01:10:23So you're the one responsible.
01:10:25Yeah, I got the limo.
01:10:26It's mine.
01:10:27Huh?
01:10:28It's mine.
01:10:31That's semi-Smooth.
01:10:33One down by the world's head.
01:10:38Smooth said there's another limo on the way.
01:10:41That must have the opponent, Steiner, extraordinary.
01:10:45The one who's in the corner.
01:10:46What's the bear got in store for later with the, uh,
01:10:48heavy abuse in there?
01:10:49What do you think he does?
01:10:50What do you think he does?
01:10:51A little bit more of a life.
01:10:52Maybe plastic surgery.
01:10:54Oh, give it the rest of the rug.
01:10:58That's a good part.
01:11:00Just one guest here coming to the ring, the face.
01:11:03Let's show the animals, Ray Mysterio 2.
01:11:06Here's a reminder.
01:11:07The new start times with thunder.
01:11:099 o'clock Eastern time each and every Wednesday.
01:11:12Straight up on TVX.
01:11:15And as Tipper comes to the ring, he still does not know who the man is.
01:11:20But we know that Stevie Ray, with a rage going down in his own gut,
01:11:24will face that better.
01:11:26That's going to be a very intense, a very emotional matchup for you.
01:11:29Thank God, he does.
01:11:30We love Stevie Ray.
01:11:31He's one of us.
01:11:32He's the mayor of the broadcast booth.
01:11:35His, his, his mind has written a check.
01:11:38His heart in his ass can't cash.
01:11:40Stevie Ray.
01:11:41I mean, Stevie Ray's great.
01:11:43Listen up, you Illinois slap asses.
01:11:45I bet each and every one of you got a real good laugh
01:11:51at the little prank that the filthy animals pulled.
01:11:54What kind of crap is that?
01:11:57Trying to interrupt my interview.
01:11:59No one does that to the chosen one.
01:12:01And Conan, I bet you were the instigator, weren't you?
01:12:04Yeah, you're, you're the leader of the filthy animals.
01:12:07I got a little news for you.
01:12:09After I beat the hell out of your little buddy like a pinata,
01:12:12I've got a little prank for you.
01:12:14And Kidman, don't even think about getting in my face.
01:12:18So choke on that, you filthy slap nuts.
01:12:23Here come the animals.
01:12:26It's gonna be Ray Jr. against Jeff Jarrett.
01:12:30And Tigers is out there.
01:12:31Please don't forget.
01:12:33And how can we ever forget?
01:12:34Hey, hey, hey.
01:12:35Let's go back to Mayhem for a second.
01:12:37Buff Bagwell tried not smart Jeff Jarrett by smashing all his guitars.
01:12:42But Jarrett had a game plan.
01:12:44I'm not gonna spoil it for people who want to see the replay.
01:12:47But you know Jarrett has a game plan tonight, too.
01:12:49He's as smart as they come.
01:12:51The encore prison takes in on Mayhem.
01:12:532000 begins tomorrow night.
01:12:56On the pay-per-view.
01:12:59And don't forget the wedding singer right here on TNT.
01:13:04It's coming Friday at 8 PM with Adam Sandler.
01:13:07As Jeff Jarrett in the ring tries to get rid of the animals to make it one-on-one.
01:13:14But we know that's not gonna happen.
01:13:16I thought he was in the hospital.
01:13:17Did he say the way of Stinger?
01:13:19The wedding singer.
01:13:21Oh, I'm sorry.
01:13:22Stinger is in the hospital.
01:13:23Thanks to Scott Steiner, so is Booker T.
01:13:26Wait a minute.
01:13:27Tigers got involved early in a face jam from Ray Jr.
01:13:30Ray Jr. taking advantage of a little trip up there by Tiger, his girlfriend on the outside.
01:13:34And he gets a two count on Jeff Jarrett.
01:13:36Let's not forget Ray Jr. has pulled some monumental upsets here in WCW.
01:13:40But I don't think it's gonna happen tonight.
01:13:42He's never faced anyone as smart, as experienced, as ring-savvy as the chosen one.
01:13:47I have to agree with Mark Madden right there.
01:13:49The giant killer Ray Mysterio Jr. at one point scoring huge upsets in WCW.
01:13:55But Jeff Jarrett can't outthink it.
01:13:57Wait a minute, Conan.
01:13:58What's Conan up to?
01:13:59Oh, he's getting in the face of Jeff Jarrett from those comments earlier on.
01:14:03Oh, look at Kidman behind Conan.
01:14:07Too many animals.
01:14:08Oh!
01:14:09Airborne goes Ray Jr.
01:14:11We've got basically four on one here.
01:14:14One, two.
01:14:15And he barely kicks out in two.
01:14:17This is unfair.
01:14:18Oh, it is perfectly fair.
01:14:20Madden, these are your rules.
01:14:21Yeah, right.
01:14:22Four on one is perfectly fair.
01:14:23Right, Chrome Dome.
01:14:24Get a grip.
01:14:25Up on top.
01:14:26Ray Jr. hooked now by Jeff Jarrett.
01:14:29Jarrett.
01:14:31That time stopped in, I don't know, stopped in mid-street.
01:14:34Oh!
01:14:35That spin kick that time by Ray.
01:14:38Jeff hesitated because the other filthy animals were hovering around inside.
01:14:42And the perfect defense for the Bronco Buster.
01:14:48His Bronco was busted that time by the foot of the chosen one.
01:14:52Caught him right in the horn.
01:14:54Literally.
01:14:55Hey, he practically kicked him into orbit.
01:14:57Right in the goobers and razordets, Tony.
01:14:59Oh, please.
01:15:00Oh, look at this, the back elbow.
01:15:02Jarrett over the top.
01:15:05Ray Jr. helping us down at the hands of the chosen one here.
01:15:09And now Kidman gets the attention of the chosen one.
01:15:11He's got Jarrett tied up.
01:15:12He's wide open.
01:15:13No, no.
01:15:14No, no, no.
01:15:15With the brakes on.
01:15:16No!
01:15:18Once again, caught in with the backup.
01:15:20And there are one too many people for Jarrett to fend off here.
01:15:24One too many.
01:15:25There's three too many.
01:15:26This is filthy.
01:15:27There's four too many.
01:15:28Oh!
01:15:29Split-legged moonsault called nothing but knee.
01:15:33Jarrett still had something left.
01:15:36How about that?
01:15:37Battling four people, three on the outside.
01:15:39And now, taunting to fill the animals.
01:15:42He's gonna go right at the animals here.
01:15:44Oh!
01:15:45And he paid for it.
01:15:46That was a big mistake, Mark, for Jarrett to come at the animals like that.
01:15:49Put him right in the T-string.
01:15:51Oh!
01:15:52That's fresh from the top.
01:15:54Ray Jr. nails Jeff Jarrett.
01:15:57Comes up the ropes.
01:15:58Oh!
01:15:59He's in the middle rope as a springboard.
01:16:02Making the pinning combination.
01:16:04No!
01:16:05I think Ray Jr. trying to stab him with the horns on that last move.
01:16:08You saw that.
01:16:09Wait a minute.
01:16:10Uh-oh.
01:16:11This is a bad spot.
01:16:12You know what this leads to.
01:16:13Conan!
01:16:14Oh!
01:16:15I'll tell you what, there's no sense showing up and nail Jim Crowley on this program.
01:16:18Yeah.
01:16:19You're just gonna knock it off.
01:16:20Faithful of stuff!
01:16:21Faithful of stuff!
01:16:22Oh!
01:16:23Good God!
01:16:24Faithful of stuff!
01:16:25That's what it is.
01:16:26And the Bronco buster the boots.
01:16:27Jeff Jarrett has been taken to the right twice.
01:16:29Oh!
01:16:30Oh!
01:16:31Oh!
01:16:32Oh!
01:16:33That's what it is.
01:16:34And the Bronco buster the boots.
01:16:35Jeff Jarrett has been taken to the right twice.
01:16:37By Ray, by Tigeris, and now Jeff.
01:16:41I got a question.
01:16:42How in the hell did Charles Robinson not see all this?
01:16:45How in the hell are the filthy animals not DQ'd?
01:16:48Tony, what the hell is going on?
01:16:49I can't enter that.
01:16:50They are just so quick.
01:16:52Charles Robinson is one man.
01:16:54Landed on the eighth one as you can see him now.
01:16:56Still something left for Ray Jr.
01:16:58Oh!
01:16:59My God!
01:17:00He folded him up like a pair of pants!
01:17:03That's a taco.
01:17:04That's the, you know, the right euphemism.
01:17:07Whatever you wanna say, he was folded up and now going for the stroke of the coup de braille.
01:17:11Oh!
01:17:12That is it.
01:17:13That is it.
01:17:14One, two.
01:17:15Not the animals.
01:17:16They're not gonna win it like that.
01:17:17Oh, wait!
01:17:18No DQ!
01:17:19I couldn't see that!
01:17:20Said the jackass Charles Robinson.
01:17:22But still, he is tied up with Tigeris in the corner.
01:17:25Not a bad fight.
01:17:26That's good.
01:17:27Look at him on the left of your screen there.
01:17:29Tied up with Tigeris, and he didn't see what happened on the outside.
01:17:32Jarrett, it still has something left.
01:17:36Jarrett, big maneuver.
01:17:38Ray heads into takeover!
01:17:40Wait a minute, Jarrett, with the acoustic equalizer.
01:17:45Ray doesn't see it!
01:17:46Oh, my God!
01:17:48The referee's son!
01:17:50That's a DQ!
01:17:51How in the hell is that a DQ?
01:17:53That is the biggest loaded crowd I've ever seen in my life!
01:17:57The referee's son!
01:17:58Don't get so fired up about it!
01:18:00It's a miracle!
01:18:01I'm not even gonna give you the satisfaction of saying that I'm gonna do it!
01:18:05That's my thing!
01:18:06Ray Jr. wins by the front of a patient, but he is in La La Land right now!
01:18:13What a battle it was!
01:18:16Jeff Jarrett!
01:18:18Jeff Jarrett!
01:18:19Shut up!
01:18:20I don't have time for your stupid-ass questions.
01:18:21Just stand there and hold the mic like you always do.
01:18:23The filthy animals, they wanna play the numbers game?
01:18:26Well, you just tell them to show up Wednesday night on Thunder,
01:18:29cuz I got a six-man tag for their slap asses.
01:18:31And who are your partners gonna be?
01:18:32Did I tell you to keep your damn hole shut?
01:18:35That's for me to know, and you and the filthy animals to worry about.
01:18:38Now choke on that, blondie!
01:18:40Has she heard that before?
01:18:45Well, Jeff Jarrett's gonna have himself some partners.
01:18:48Who are they gonna be, Tony?
01:18:50I don't know who they're gonna be.
01:18:53I don't know, Tony.
01:18:54Come on, help us out.
01:18:55Speaking of that, suck his guts to die.
01:18:58Suck his guts to die, or I guess, suck his guts to win to keep their career going.
01:19:03It's all like neck bones do.
01:19:05What happened is Stevie Ray's emotions got the best of it.
01:19:08Sands, and it happened.
01:19:10He's putting his career on the line against the world anyway, Kane.
01:19:14And as he comes to the ring, does Stevie Ray.
01:19:17In the midst of his life, there you see the WCW World Champion.
01:19:22He'll be coming up next, and look at this.
01:19:24He's here!
01:19:25He's here!
01:19:26Who is it?
01:19:27I don't know!
01:19:28Who the hell is it, Tony?
01:19:30The next man to face the World Champion.
01:19:33At Starrcade!
01:19:34Every year, there is one event that rises above all others.
01:19:38One night that destroys the past, defines the future,
01:19:42and twists around everything you thought you knew into a night you will never forget.
01:19:47This year, that event is Starrcade.
01:19:51You cannot imagine what WCW will do on its biggest night until you see it live.
01:19:57Order Starrcade, Sunday, December 17th at 8 Eastern, live and only on pay-per-view.
01:20:02Starrcade may be on the 17th of December.
01:20:07It'll be at the MCI Center.
01:20:09But before we find out who the man will be to go after the world title that night,
01:20:15before Scott Steiner can think about the MCI Center,
01:20:19he must think about a man who's gonna go at him with passion.
01:20:23Not only with his career on the line, will Stevie Ray do battle here tonight.
01:20:29But Stevie Ray will do battle for his family's honor, knowing that his brother,
01:20:35the former champion, is in a hospital somewhere, Scott.
01:20:38Whoa, hang on a minute!
01:20:39We're not gonna get a chance to go on and on.
01:20:42Stevie Ray is all over the world champion.
01:20:45It's a passion that we heard last night out of the mouth of Stevie Ray,
01:20:50who helped us broadcast mayhem.
01:20:52And we are shooting here tonight, which is the right move.
01:20:56Look at the lady stealing the lead pipe from behind.
01:20:59He's gotta be wary of that.
01:21:00One blow to the back of the head, hits all over.
01:21:02Ooh!
01:21:03That could've been it!
01:21:04Medesia wounding that lead pipe.
01:21:07And we're talking about ten years of heat between the Steiners and Harlan heat.
01:21:12Exchanging the World Tag Team Championship belt back and forth and back and forth now.
01:21:17It's a step high.
01:21:18It's the World Heavyweight Championship of WCW.
01:21:23Scott Steiner has it.
01:21:24Stevie Ray wants it.
01:21:25I hope Stevie Ray doesn't think he's in just another wrestling match.
01:21:27I hope Stevie Ray doesn't think he's in just another wrestling match.
01:21:29I hope Stevie Ray doesn't think this is just gonna be trading holds.
01:21:33He's in there against Genghis Khan, against Vladdy Impaler,
01:21:36against Alexander the Great, a man who has come back from history.
01:21:41Reincarnated over and over again to become the greatest athlete in WCW.
01:21:46The World Champion.
01:21:47Stevie Ray's been off way more than he can shoot.
01:21:49Let's not forget a week ago there was so much animosity and
01:21:52there's been so much between these two men that there had to be a plexiglass petition.
01:21:57A wall between Stevie Ray and Scott Steiner conducting a one-on-one interview for Thunder.
01:22:04And now as this battle rolls to the ring, Stevie Ray does really not care about becoming world champion.
01:22:10He is battling for not only his life, but for his family here.
01:22:14And look at the arrogance, you can just see it.
01:22:16It comes out of the pores of the skin of Big Papa Pump.
01:22:20Battling for his career, battling for his career, that's the bottom line right here.
01:22:24With every breath that goes through the body of Stevie Ray,
01:22:28he sees the image from last night in Milwaukee at May of his brother lying helpless in a heap in the ring,
01:22:35broken from head to toe.
01:22:37He doesn't think about his career.
01:22:39He doesn't think about the world title.
01:22:41He thinks about just battling Scott Steiner.
01:22:44Let's not forget Stevie Ray would be the WCW world champion before this is all over.
01:22:49There's a big upside for Stevie Ray.
01:22:51He's not just fighting for his career.
01:22:53He's fighting for the greatest prize in professional wrestling.
01:22:56No, not yet.
01:22:57The man is Stevie Ray looking big public but the world champion driven by emotion, driven by hatred.
01:23:03Will it be enough to win the match here tonight, live from Rockford, Illinois.
01:23:09And Scott Steiner has him in the corner and now he's shattering Stevie Ray.
01:23:13Let's go to get another second.
01:23:14He's been at the broadcast table.
01:23:16Stevie Ray has knocked the ring for a couple of months now and he has to take its toll on Stevie Ray.
01:23:24Clearly right now Scott Steiner is wearing Stevie Ray.
01:23:27That clearly has been shaken up by Stevie Ray.
01:23:30And Scott Steiner is taking Big Brother.
01:23:33Can Stevie Ray put himself at the other team along with the lines of Dory and Terry Funk
01:23:39to be the only brother team to hold the world title.
01:23:42But now Stevie Ray on a little bit of fire doused by Big Papa Papa.
01:23:47Let's not forget the second limousine is parked outside.
01:23:50Ric Flair is the man of his word.
01:23:51We're gonna find out who the challenger will be.
01:23:54The star keg on December 17th before this program is up.
01:23:58Here he may have a new world champion to be with Stevie Ray.
01:24:01Stevie's wearing one of those breathe right laser strips.
01:24:04When this night's over, he'll be lucky.
01:24:06He's breathing it all, Tony.
01:24:08That Steiner's going to the shoulder, going to the neck.
01:24:11The shoulder broke the cannon's back, so to speak, last night.
01:24:14Was that the fact that Scott Steiner really won it?
01:24:16But what he did to Booker T after the match was over, that would put Booker in the hospital.
01:24:21That would put Stevie over the edge last night.
01:24:23Absolute carnage last night in Milwaukee.
01:24:26Booker T, a crack and separated sternum.
01:24:29The knee completely shot.
01:24:31Scott Steiner removed the knee brace.
01:24:33Wore it out with a steel chair.
01:24:35Booker T is out on the shot.
01:24:37He leaves cutting on Stevie Ray getting revenge for his brother on Mike's Rock.
01:24:42And if the knee is bad enough, if he needs a full-blown surgery,
01:24:46he needs full-blown surgery on the knee, then what's gonna happen?
01:24:49He'll be out six months for the knee over.
01:24:51If he comes back ever.
01:24:52That's right.
01:24:53Stevie Ray, a big comeback.
01:24:54Boy, did he tag Scott Steiner.
01:24:56Stevie Ray needs to do this.
01:24:58He needs to pick up on the mistakes from Scott Steiner.
01:25:00And Scott Steiner's hurt.
01:25:02Scott Steiner is hurt.
01:25:03He's driving Steiner down.
01:25:04Look, Steiner's dazed.
01:25:06Steiner's wobbling.
01:25:07Well, he's still got something left though.
01:25:09Instinctively with a back elbow.
01:25:11And now Stevie Ray's in trouble.
01:25:13Scott Steiner's got him hugged.
01:25:14He's belly to belly.
01:25:15Wow.
01:25:16Look at the power.
01:25:17See the power.
01:25:18See the power of the superstar.
01:25:20One, two, Stevie's out.
01:25:23See the power of the world champion basking his magnificence.
01:25:26There's only one Scott Steiner.
01:25:28Stevie Ray well over 300 pounds of the Rolling Thunder suplex from the All-American
01:25:33Wolverine Scott Steiner.
01:25:35Shooting for one neutral corner of the other.
01:25:38Stevie Ray's got something left.
01:25:39Holds his ground.
01:25:40Wide vertical face for the back elbow.
01:25:42And great extension left standing sidekick from Stevie Ray.
01:25:45He leveled the champion.
01:25:46Stevie Ray, you can see it in the face.
01:25:49You can feel it in the way he hits him.
01:25:51He's fighting for two men.
01:25:53Him and his brother.
01:25:54But his brother ain't here to help right now.
01:25:56Stevie Ray not only fighting Steiner, he's gonna be fighting fatigue right now.
01:26:03Manasia, Manasia grabbing a leg.
01:26:06Let's stop Steiner from behind.
01:26:08It was the diversion that Steiner needed.
01:26:10It didn't really mount him much physically, but it's all Steiner needed.
01:26:14Look at this pickup.
01:26:15He dropped him down.
01:26:16Almost a brain buster that time.
01:26:18If he's great, why does he need this Yak at ringside?
01:26:22What are the interference for him?
01:26:23Good call.
01:26:24A Yak at ringside.
01:26:26That's for you, Stevie.
01:26:27A pickup and a backbreaker.
01:26:30That's over, Jack.
01:26:31Steiner could have won, Steve Kearney.
01:26:33Steiner could have won by now.
01:26:34He wants to not only end Stevie Ray's career, but end his life here on TNT Monday Night.
01:26:39Stevie's getting up.
01:26:40Stevie is up.
01:26:42He's got it.
01:26:45He got it.
01:26:46Book end.
01:26:47Book end.
01:26:48Book end.
01:26:49Book end.
01:26:50Stevie Ray's hurt.
01:26:51Stevie Ray's hurt.
01:26:52The move hurt him too.
01:26:53He used his brother's maneuver.
01:26:54Can you believe it?
01:26:55Put the arm over.
01:26:56Put the arm over, Stevie.
01:26:57You got it.
01:26:58Here they go.
01:26:59One, two, and go.
01:27:01Oh, he just rolled the left shoulder up in the nick of time.
01:27:05It took him too long to make the cover.
01:27:08That was the determining factor on that exchange, and that's why Stevie Ray is not the champion.
01:27:13He couldn't even get the leg up, and Scott Steiner nails him in the side of the head.
01:27:17Stevie's blown up.
01:27:18Stevie's dead tired.
01:27:19He couldn't even get that leg up.
01:27:20Scott Steiner's gonna play with him like a cat plays with a wounded mouth.
01:27:24On the outside.
01:27:25Scott Steiner's not a spring chicken out there.
01:27:27No!
01:27:28He's moving kind of slow too.
01:27:29They have worn each other out tonight in Rockford.
01:27:32Two huge men wearing each other out.
01:27:36Stevie's got the chair.
01:27:38Scott Steiner goes down in a heap.
01:27:40This could be the moment that Stevie Ray is waiting for.
01:27:43No, I don't blame Stevie for using the chair, Tony.
01:27:46It's come to that, no doubt.
01:27:47There is no doubt, you've gotta use it because you know, every time you go in the ring against Steiner, you risk not only losing, but you risk losing your health.
01:27:57In he goes.
01:27:58Stevie tried to swat it off but couldn't.
01:28:00It still got in there over the top.
01:28:03That's one, two, and Stevie kicked out in two.
01:28:09But barely.
01:28:10There was not a lot of energy in that kick out from Stevie Ray.
01:28:14He's spent, Tony.
01:28:15He's done.
01:28:16Scott Steiner be very well served and take another pinfall attempt quickly here.
01:28:20Before a move like that, or that from Big Stevie.
01:28:23Stevie's got him.
01:28:24Stevie's got him.
01:28:25He's gonna-
01:28:26My God!
01:28:27The butterfly!
01:28:28Double underhook, throw him face first in.
01:28:32One.
01:28:33A one count.
01:28:34Stevie's dead.
01:28:35Stevie has no power in what he's doing.
01:28:37Yeah.
01:28:38No power at all.
01:28:39The yak.
01:28:40The days in the face of Stevie.
01:28:42The distraction.
01:28:43Meanwhile, Scott Steiner's got Stevie Ray on down.
01:28:46And no!
01:28:47Oh!
01:28:48What a crash from the top all the way down.
01:28:52Oh, the Steiner recliner.
01:28:54I thought he stuck it up.
01:28:55Get out, Steve.
01:28:56Get out.
01:28:57Roll forward.
01:28:58Don't hate the player.
01:29:00Hate the game.
01:29:01It's over.
01:29:02The game is over.
01:29:03It shows the career of Stevie Ray.
01:29:06It's a black day for World Championship Wrestling.
01:29:11Stevie Ray's career is over.
01:29:12It stops Steiner.
01:29:13Wait a minute.
01:29:14Wait a minute.
01:29:15Wait a minute.
01:29:16Ladies and gentlemen.
01:29:17Apparently Steiner's talking about it.
01:29:19Oh my God!
01:29:20He's coming out!
01:29:21Oh my God!
01:29:22It's dead vicious!
