Richards gets on the mic but Sandman spits beer in his as he begins to talk. Dreamer then spits soda on Meanie and Nova. Between this and the entrances its been like three hours.

Sabu leaps off the second turnbuckle with a DDT for another close 3 count. Scorpio comes back with a super kick for 2. Moonsault misses. Sabu with a triple jump tornado DDT. That looked awesome. Some confusion here as the ref stops counting but Scorpio clearly doesn’t kick out. The ref starts counting again and again stops counting even though Scorpio doesn’t kick out. Scorpio hits a German for 3 even though Sabu rolls his shoulder up. Sabu then gets announced as the winner. Sabu and Scorpio are mad so they beat the shit out of the ref. HAHA. They plan on putting him through a table but it falls apart when they put him on it. Well bell to bell it was 17.36. Sabu and Scorpio shake hands and hug after the match. Scorpio gets on the mic and runs down fans and says he’s going to the WWF to make his money.

My thoughts on the show…
I enjoyed the Candido match I love his super bomb it always looks so awesome. Douglas and Spicolli had a nice match and like I mentioned an exciting finish. Sabu/Scorpio was a little slower paced then normal but a nice final match between two guys that have had some good battles in the past.

There were people shocked that Bray Wyatt defeated Dean Ambrose clean in their Ambulance Match on last Monday’s WWE RAW.
It’s possible that Ambrose turns heel in the near future or WWE just isn’t focused on protecting him right now.

We’ve noted how officials wanted to keep Wyatt looking strong in case The Undertaker decides to perform at WrestleMania 31. There was a feeling after Wyatt’s RAW win that it could be a sign the company believes Taker is coming back.

As noted earlier, CM Punk completed his first week of MMA training at Roufusport, and his coach Duke Roufus joined him on Inside MMA Friday night to talk about the former WWE champion’s progress. Video of their appearance is above.

“I like watching everybody spar, everybody move. It’s been a real learning experience for me, but fun for me too.” Punk said of his first week. Punk said that the appeal of quality and convenience led him to picking the gym.

“I met Punk two years in Chicago, we’ve been friendly since then and I knew about his intentions to get into the sport so it wasn’t a surprise to me,” Roufus said of Punk. “A guy with his magnitude in WWE, I’m really excited to see him come into the UFC.”

Roufus said that Punk is doing good, and has shown up with a great work ethic, attitude and learning ability. Roufus said Punk’s open mind has impressed him and helped him learn.

CM Punk said that no opponent has been determined, and he’s in no rush for it so quickly after his first week of training. He said he’s calling himself out more than he’s calling anyone else out.

During tonight’s TNA Lockdown tapings in New York City, Jeff Hardy took a very bad bump from the cage and apparently was knocked out backstage after the match.

Hardy was knocked from the top of the cage door to the steel steps outside of the cage. He finished the rest of the match but was helped to the back by officials. A fan in attendance noted that crew members and Jeremy Borash were overheard saying Hardy was knocked out backstage.

Below is a tweet from Tommy Dreamer, who worked the tapings, and fan video of the bump:

I’ve seen @JEFFHARDYBRAND take some ridiculous bumps. 1st time ever I’m concerned for his health & this is coming from me.

Thanks to Tano Rodriguez and Eric Castro and Mike Bessler for the following WWE SmackDown spoilers from tonight’s tapings in Laredo, Texas:

Tonight’s episode starts with a recap of “John Cena Appreciation Night” on Raw, including the return of The Authority and the announcement that Seth Rollins will join the bout between Cena and Lesnar for the title. Then we head into the venue for tonight’s show. Seth Rollins hits the ramp to get things started.

Flanked by J & J Security, Rollins laughs about Cena getting screwed over on Monday Night Raw and they re-rack the footage from the show’s final moments. Rollins rattles off the names of the trio that were fired and the crowd pops for each guy. He hypes the fact that the title match at Royal Rumble is now a triple threat and the crowd boos. Rollins has the guys at ringside toll the bell for Ryback, Ziggler and Rowan and the sarcastic salute is cut short by the arrival of Roman Reigns.

Reigns steps into the ring with a mic and facetiously apologizes for interrupting. He says that Seth is full of both “something else” and “suffering succotash.” Then he commences to totally whaling on Rollins. J & J can’t muster a defense for their crony and Reigns belts Seth so hard he hits the floor.

From the ramp, Rollins rants and Kane emerges to book Reigns into a match for the main event. It’ll be Seth Rollins and Big Show versus Roman Reigns and a partner of his choice. Kane says that anyone who partners up with Reigns will be subject to discipline by The Authority. Big Show yells a whole bunch to round out the segment.

Backstage, The New Day are heading to the ring. Commercial sign.

After the break, Corporate Kane assures some unnamed individual or individuals via phone that he has everything under control. Miz and Mizdow come in to kiss up to Kane and lobby for a tag match against The Usos. Kane isn’t having it after Mizdow accidentally spills water all over The Big Red Monster. There will be a triple-threat match for the titles later tonight. Back to the ring…

Big E. vs. Adam Rose
Continuing with a budding feud, the other members of The New Day are at ringside and Cesaro and Tyson Kidd are in the corner of Adam Rose. Rose gets the jump on Big E pretty quickly and stays on top of him with some mat grappling. Big E puts Rose down with a big clothesline and follows with a splash off the ropes. Rose escapes a power slam and follows with an enzugiri and DDT, earning a near-fall. Big E catches Rose with “The Big Ending” and covers for the win.
Result: Big E. defeats Adam Rose via pinfall

More commercials roll and then The Ascension heads out to the ring for a tag match. First a promo… They work the Road Warriors in from the start and say that the legendary team couldn’t even carry their shoulder pads. Cole notes the uproar that their previous promo caused earlier in the week.

A quick squash match ensues against an unnamed team. The Ascension gets the win in short order.

Backstage, the Usos are all fired up for their upcoming tag match.

* The Ascension cut a promo in the ring and squashed two local wrestlers.

* Alicia Fox defeated Naomi with her foot on the rope.

* The Usos defeated Goldust & Stardust and The Miz & Damien Sandow in a Triple Threat to retain their titles. Goldust got pinned.

* Sin Cara defeated Bad News Barrett clean in a non-title match. Barrett hit him with the Bullhammer after the match.

* Seth Rollins and Big Show vs. Roman Reigns and a partner is the main event. Nobody comes out for Reigns at first but finally the music of Dean Ambrose hits and out he comes. Ambrose and Reigns win when Reigns spears Rollins. This was the end of SmackDown.

Underground TV 2003-09-01 (Matches taped Summer Apocalypse 2003-08-22 from St. Petersburg Coliseum in St. Petersburg, Fla)

Champions
World: Steve Corino
GTC: Simon Diamond & CW Anderson

Almost all the matches that will air over the course of Underground TV have been previously reviewed from the home videos so these will be short recaps.

Jerry “The King” Lawler with a pre taped interview from Stanford, Ct talks about how much he hate Terry Funk. Funk has similar words for Lawler. Funk talks about the empty arena match they had years ago when Lawler took out Funk’s eye. They go at it in tonight’s main event.

Opening video.

Joey Styles is our host. Joey now says the Extreme Horsemen have challenged Terry Funk to gather a group of legends for War Games. Well that’s kind of a different story then what he was saying last week.

Sonjay Dutt is in the locker room and he is very excited about his match this week with Jimmy Yang. After a commercial break Joey hypes the match and the juniors tournament. Jimmy Yang beat Dutt in the match but Dutt won the fans over with a great showing.

A video package on the battle between Sabu and the Sinister Minister’s group is shown. Both Bill Alfonso and Minister are trying to get a Loser Leaves Town Match between Sabu and “Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels.

CM Punk trash talks Raven. Raven shows up behind Punk and kicks him in the face.

The main event is next Jerry Lawler beat Terry Funk but the Extreme Horsemen refused to pay the bounty. This lead to Funk and Lawler fighting with Simon Diamond and CW Anderson and the War Games match being finalized. We get a few seconds not shown on home video during the part that was clipped. Funk hit 2 stunners and a neckbreaker on Lawler right before the finish of the match.

My thoughts on the show…
Tough one here as the main event was just awful but that opening match was really good. Well I say watch this one and just turn it off once you get to the main event.

Champions
World: Steve Corino
GTC: Simon Diamond & CW Anderson

Almost all the matches that will air over the course of Underground TV have been previously reviewed from the home videos so these will be short recaps.

We get clips the ending of the main event last week. To the Extreme Horsemen we go and they all hype the War Games. Sandman questions what they are going to do at War Games. “Dr. Death” Steve Williams says it’s going to be a war and that Terry Funk and Jerry Lawler need to learn to be a team. Lawler says he has no problem with Williams or Sandman but has lots of problems with Funk. Lawler wants to know if Funk is man enough to put there problems asides. Funk again talks about what Lawler did to his eye in the empty arena match 20 years ago. Funk says they have a team to get the job done because they are 4 mean sons of bitches.

Opening video.

Joey Styles lets us know that we have three big matches tonight. In the opening match The Samoan Island Tribe beat Monsta Mac and B-Boy in a wild Falls Count Anywhere Match with an awesome finish. Mac’s normal partner Mafia was not in the match because the Samoans according to Joey attacked him in the parking lot.

Bill Alfonso and Sabu are backstage. Alfonso says Sabu is a scared up freak and that means Daniels has no chance in the spike match. Sinister Minister is with Jerry Lynn and Mikey Whipwreck. Minister says that Homicide got lucky when he pinned Lynn. Sinister talks about a lion taking over another pack by eating the young and raping the women to become king. Mikey begins to sing “in the jungle the might jungle” but Minister stops him and says “A you can’t sing and B this is very serious please be quiet”. Lynn then growls at Homicide. These guys are great together. I’m loving their promos. Signed for War Games is a loser leaves MLW for 60 days match between Daniels and Sabu. Homicide talks about how he’s going to beat Lynn tonight.

CM Punk talks about how Raven quit doing drugs and drinking so he can go up North and work for a circus. He says Raven got comfortable and slipped back into the drugs and got himself fired. Punk says that even he can’t help Raven. Punk says at War Games is new friend Nosawa will help Raven become straight edge.

Homicide beat Jerry Lynn for the second straight time. However after the match Lynn laid out Homicide with the cradle piledriver followed by the ring bell to the throat.

Sonja Dutt talks about the Junior Heavyweight Title Tournament. Los Maximos take on Mexico’s Most Wanted at War Games. Raven talks about how he loves beating up flunkies.

In the main event Sabu beat a bloodied “Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels in a spike match by submission.

My thoughts on the show…
Another fun promo by Sinister Minister and his crew. The second and third match both disappointed me. This episode can be skipped.

Almost all the matches that will air over the course of Underground TV have been previously reviewed from the home videos so these will be short recaps.

The Extreme Horsemen beat down Sandman in the locker room before their tag team title match tonight.

Opening video.

Joey Styles runs down the show for tonight and hypes War Games coming up in a few days. At War Games we will find out who was behind the mask at Summer Apocalypse as they join the Extreme Horsemen.

We go down to the ring for the opening match. Mikey Whipwreck beat Tony Mamaluke with a super whippersnapper.

Joey hypes War Games one last time and we get a music video package highlighting its matches.

My thoughts on the show…
Two out of the three matches were decent enough the title match stunk. This one is worth checking out.

Underground TV 2003-09-22 (Matches taped Summer Apocalypse 2003-08-22 from St. Petersburg Coliseum in St. Petersburg, Fla)

Champions
World: Steve Corino
GTC: Simon Diamond & CW Anderson
Junior Heavyweight Champion: Sonjay Dutt

Almost all the matches that will air over the course of Underground TV have been previously reviewed from the home videos so these will be short recaps.

Highlights of last weeks Straight Edge Rules Match.

Opening video and that’s a great way to spend the first 6 minutes of a 1 hour program.

Joey Styles welcomes us to the show and hypes Hybrid Horror coming up on October 24th.

Michael Shane and Francine defeated Norman Smiley and GI Ho in the opening bout.

Joey hypes next weeks Underground TV which will feature the War Games match.

Mana beat Rich Criado with a super samoan drop in 3.59. This match was clipped on the home video and is shown complete here. There was really no extra action to talk about.

Los Maximos talk about how they are going to beat Nosawa and B-Boy in the main event because they are the best tag team in the world. I would strongly disagree with that. Joey lets us know that at Hybrid Horror. Terry Funk takes on Champion Steve Corino. Funk gets to pick the stipulation for the match but it is his last chance ever.

Jerry Lynn, Sinister Minister and Mikey Whipwreck talk about Homicide and how he’s in over his head. Mikey holds up his rubber ducky and tells Homicide to “go duck” himself. Lynn follows that up by saying “duck off”. Mikey falls to the ground laughing.

Joey says that at Hybrid Horror launching pads will be welded to the ring post for the Junior Heavyweights to use. Sounds awesome and I can’t wait for Ekmo to jump off one.

“Dr. Death” Steve Williams hypes his tag team match with Sandman against the Extreme Horsemen coming up at Hybrid Horror. Music begins to loudly play while Williams tries to talk and PJ Friedman busts into the locker room and tells Doc it’s time to party and then leaves.

In the main even Los Maximos beat Nosawa and B-Boy. I guess they will continue to say they are the best team in the world now. The home video cuts about a minute into the match and makes it look like B-Boy and Joel start out the match. Nosawa and Jose actually start but we go to commercial break before they do anything butplay to the crowd. When we come back we are where the match begins on the home video.

My thoughts on the show…
This one is worth checking out for the main event. As much as I hate the Maximos brothers I actually enjoyed this match.

Underground TV 2003-09-29 (Matches taped War Games 2003-09-19 from War Memorial Auditorium in Fort Lauderdale, Fla)

Champions
World: Steve Corino
GTC: Simon Diamond & CW Anderson
Junior Heavyweight Champion: Sonjay Dutt

Almost all the matches that will air over the course of Underground TV have been previously reviewed from the home videos so these will be short recaps.

Extreme Horsemen open the show with an in ring promo where they introduce PJ Walker and Barry Windham as the newest members of the Extreme Horsemen.

Brand new opening video!

First round Junior Heavyweight Tournament action starts us off tonight as Sonjay Dutt beats Tony Mamaluke. Joey Styles still on commentary here even though Kevin Kelly did the home video version.

Joey hypes Hybrid Horror and runs down the rules of War Games. We go to the locker room where Terry Funk and Champion Steve Corino are taking part in the coin toss to determine which team gets the advantage. Corino’s team wins.

In the War Games Match Terry Funk forced Champion Steve Corino to submit to the spinning toe hold after blowing fire in his face. Sabu and Bill Alfonso made a surprise appearance and joined the Funkin’ Army. During the match Joey announced that the stipulation picked by Terry Funk for his match at Hybrid Horror is a Dog Collar Match.

My thoughts on the show…
Skip this one. The War Games match was too slow and the opening was nothing.
