Raw Pre-Show 5/12/14

– Panel this week is the usual Josh Matthews, Alex Riley, Brooker T and guest panelist this week is Jimmy Hart.

– Discussion of the Evolution and Shield feud. Specifically how the Shield is handling the Authorities backlash.

– We’ve got Titus O’Neil vs. Kofi Kingston being taped for Superstars in the background… Kofi surprisingly goes over… Lawler interviews Kofi on the ramp, he doesn’t want to talk about Rusev and the past, Kofi was successful tonight!

– Damien Sandow interrupts the panel. He’s pissed about the way he’s been treated… His mic gets cut… He continues to go, he’s “shooting” on the company. I guess they are bringing angles to the pre-show…

– Legends House stuff….

– We are forced to relive the Daniel Bryan and Kane garbage from last week. May God have mercy on us…

– Now the announcers make their way out for the show and it’s time!

Probably missed some things as I keep peaking for a tornado…

WWE Raw 5/12/14 from Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, South Carolina

– The Shield are in the ring as we begin. They’re not running FROM Evolution, but rather running to them. They want a rematch! When Evolution shows up tonight, Shield’s going to hunt them down. Evolution WAS good, but they can no longer “evolve” into what they need to be in order to beat The Shield. Roman Reigns is pissed off. He took all the finishers last week, and he wants to know if that’s all Evolution has, because it wasn’t enough. Evolution is going to believe in the Shield!

Backstage camera shows Evolution pull up in a limo. The Shield rush to the parking garage to attack Evo. THE FIGHT IS ON!!!! The Shield looking for some revenge before the six men are pulled apart, with Evolution left laying…

– RVD on his way to the ring for our first match… So we already know Raw will be off to a SLOW start…

-Commercial Break-

1. Rob Van Dam vs. Jack Swagger (w/Zeb Colter). Zeb cuts the usual promo, not that it’s a bad thing. Adam Rose has been added to Zeb’s deportation list. Zeb sends a warning to Rose. Very short match, Adam Rose comes out with his Rosebuds, which Michael Cole refers to as Rose Petals, lol… it distracts Swagger, RVD lands a kick and scores the easy win in like 10 seconds… Well that didn’t have time to suck, but I’m not digging this Adam Rose stuff… A 10 second match to set the tone for the show… lovely…

Adam Rose and company fance away from ringside, Zeb is speechless at the scene….

– Video package for Paige.

-Commercial Break-

– BO-lieve in BO Dallas…

2. Divas Champion Paige vs. Alicia Fox… For like the fourth time… Fox actually takes the mic and says Paige hasn’t been here long but has managed to alienate herself from everyone backstage. Fox tells Paige she doesn’t fit in, and attacks her. Alicia works Paige over and yells at the referee to ask Paige if she’s ready. The bell rings and the match officially begins… Alicia goes back to work on Paige in the corner. Alicia with a backbreaker and then they fight to the floor. The fight goes back into the ring with Fox continuing the dominance. Alicia drives Page face first into the mat repeatedly, but Paige turns it around out of nowhere and gets the win.

– After the match, Alicia throws a tantrum and shoves the referee. She goes around ringside and tears the top off the announcers table. She takes one of JBL’s drinks, shakes it up and sprays it everywhere. She kicks the fan barrier a few times. She yells at fans about how she’s Divas Championship material. She grabs JBL’s hat and puts it on before continuing her tantrum up the ramp…. Wow… that was actually different… I’ll take that…

– We get a video package on Kane and Daniel Bryan.

– Up next, Bryan will address the WWE Universe… Here we go… :\

-Commercial Break-

– Out comes WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan. He thanks everyone because it’s been a long road getting here. He says he knew it would be an uphill battle and it has been but the hill is a little steeper than he thought it would be. “NO!” chants follow… Bryan says The Authority threw everything they had at him but he still walked out of WrestleMania XXX as the champion. Bryan says when he came back from his honeymoon, he got a bad beating from Kane and was put in a neck brace because of that… Bryan says he was determined to beat Kane at Extreme Rules and he did. Bryan says his entire style comes with a price and that win over Kane came with a price… Bryan believes fans chant for him because he pays that price with his body. Bryan says he is having neck surgery this Thursday. He gets emotional and says he’s not happy about it because this has been his dream. Bryan says some people are happy about it – Stephanie McMahon, Kane, Triple H…. He says to them, they think his career is pretty much done. Bryan says he will come back but he doesn’t know when. He gets a big “yes!” chant going and that’s all folks… Lovely…

– Wyatt Family video….

– Cena and The Usos vs. The Wyatts is next.

-Commercial Break-

3. John Cena & The Usos vs. The Wyatt Family. Harper starts things out with Jey Uso. Back and forth between the two until Harper throws a dropkick… Damn! Rowan takes his turn on Jey, then Bray gets his licks in… Back to Harper in the ring, but Jey finally tags out to Jimmy… Jimmy Uso with a Samoan Drop on Harper… Jimmy turns his attention to Bray and Rowan on the apron, and Harper blindsides him…. They keep Jimmy down, until Jimmy Uso ducks a Wyatt clothesline and dropkicks Bray… Hot tag to Cena… John with some basic Cena offense, Rowan escapes an AA attempt and Harper nails Cena from behind…

Jey Uso comes in and takes out Harper, but Bray takes out Jey… Jimmy Uso then takes out Bray… Jimmy Uso takes to the air but gets nailed by Rowan… Cena then clobbers Rowan and hooks him in an STF, but Bray breaks it up with a splash… Bray goes for Sister Abigail onCena, but Jey Uso kicks Wyatt in the head… and a superkick to Harper!!! The Usos leap out onto Bray and Harper on the floor… And Cena with the AA on Rowan for the win…..

– After the match, Bray speaks from the ring and thanks Cena for what he must do. Bray says to follow the buzzards…. that’s all… for now…

– Still to come, Evolution will appear…

-Commercial Break-

– Back from the break and out comes Evolution… Randy Orton speaks first and he’s ready to take the gloves off when it comes to The Shield. HHH says The Shield will get their rematch at Payback. They’re going to go from Ambrose to Rollins to Reigns, but Reigns won’t be coming back from Payback. The Shield suddenly attack from behind and clear the ring of Evolution!!! Batista takes a mic and comes down the ramp. He’s had enough of all three of them… Batista challenges Reigns to a match for tonight!!! Batista talks trash from the ramp as Evolution’s music hits.

-Commercial Break-

4. Natalya vs. Nikki Bella. Okay, so I don’t follow Total Divas, but apparently one of their storylines is that Nattie painted a picture of Nikki and Cena, and Nikki crapped on it… Now THAT is good TV… The cast of Total Divas is at ringside for this match… The Total Divas are outside holding Numbers to rate the match… wow, so much material to work with there… Back and forth, until Nikki takes over with a big kick… Slap fight ensues, then Natalya locks in an abdominal stretch… Pin attempts from both ladies, but Nikki gets the win…

– After the match, Brie comes in to celebrate with Nikki. The other Divas are giving her “10” scores. Nikki goes to ringside and celebrates with the other Divas… Natalya gets upset and rips their numbers up… Natalya’s feeling are hurt… Heel turn coming??? Alicia Fox was far more amusing…

That’s 2 Divas matches in the first 90 minutes… Literally half the matches so far have been the Divas…

-Commercial Break-

5. U.S. Champion Sheamus vs. Curtis Axel (w/Ryback). Apparently they tried to turn Sheamus heel last week, but nobody caught onto it… Sheamus controls, then Axel gets his turn. Curtis seats Sheamus on the top rope and lands a suspension neckbeaker. Axel goes for a dropkick but Sheamus catches his legs and turns it into a Clowverleaf for the submission win in 3:30… Damn thing went shorter than the Divas matches…

Immediately after getting the win, Ryback mauls Sheamus from behind… A mini-brawl and the two men separate and stare each other down… Well, I guess no heel turn this week, fella….

-Commercial Break-

6. U.S. Champion Sheamus vs. Ryback (w/Axel). We come back from break and the match is already going… Ryback has control, but misses a knee or something and Sheamus takes over… Kneelift and the ten forearm clubs on the ropes… Sheamus tries to slingshot into the ring with a shoulderblock, but he’s caught by Ryback!!! Ryback tries for Shellshock but has to settle with a jawbreaker for 2… Ryback charges with the meathook clothesline, but Sheamus counters with White Noise for a near fall!!!! Ryback escapes a Cloverleaf attempt, Sheamus misses a Brodgue Kick… Ryback with a spinebuster for a near fall… Ryback charges into a boot from Sheamus, and Sheamus hits a powerslam for 2… Sheamus calls for the Brogue, Axel distracts and Ryback lands the Meathook Clothesline!!! It’s Shellshock time!!! But Sheamus escapes, Ryback ends up taking the Brogue Kick for the finish… Sheamus retains, but that was the damndest 6 minute match I’ve seen between guys this size… That speaks wonders for how far along Ryback has come in the last 6 months…

-Commercial Break-

If Ryback and Axel weren’t enough… Shamus has a match with Cesaro tomorrow on the Main Event…

– Oh God… It’s Stephanie McMahon headed to the ring… If my satellite dish was going to go back out, NOW would be the time… Stephanie has tried to protect Daniel Bryan, but now he can’t perform… Stephanie has something to say to Bryan face to face, she calls for Bryan to come out… But instead… It’s Kane… dragging a lifeless Daniel Bryan to the stage…. UGH… Just when you think it can’t get any worse… Oh, and Bryan’s shirt is all ripped up to add to the visual. Kane just walks away and Daniel Bryan has to be carted off on a stretcher… Stephanie comes up the ramp to check on Bryan, acting concerned… Brie Bella is right there too, but isn’t doing a damn thing to Stephanie…

The guy leaves for a legit neck surgery, and instead of squashing this garbage, they drag it out even more? This is the worst booking of a World Champion since possibly Rey Mysterio…

-Commercial Break-

Back from break, Daniel bryan is being loaded into an Ambulance… Stephanie apologizes again, and Brie swats her away and warns her to STAY AWAY!!! Brie gets in the Ambulance and they leave… Stephanie stands there with a suspicious look on her face as we go back to the ring…

7. Dolph Ziggler vs. Fandango (w/Leyla). We see clips of Fandango kissing Summer Rae from Total Divas, and now Layla from Smackdown… Fast action from the guys and Ziggler takes a bump to the floor… Back inside Fandango tries a pin for 2… Fandango misses a charge in the corner, Ziggler with a flurry of punches and a neckbreaker… Ziggler misses the Famouser, and Fandango comes back with a Falcon Arrow for a near fall… Fandango goes up top but Ziggler dodges, Fandango jumps down but takes a FAMOUSER from Dolph… 1..2.. Fandango kicks out and Layla hops onto the apron for a distraction… This allows Fandango to hit a spin kick for a near fall… Layla gets her leg stuck in the ring apron, which distracts Fandango, and Ziggler comes back with the ZIG ZAG for the win in about 5:00…

– After the match, Fandango says he may have lost, but Layla has won his heart… He professes his love for Layla, and they make out… So it’s okay to lose because he’s in love? Okay…. Happy Ziggler won, just wish he’d beat somebody that meant something…

-Commercial Break-

– Back from break and “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan makes his way to the ring… Obviously this is in association with Legends House… Duggan barely gets two setences out before LANA appears… She’s “Russian” and all that you know… Duggan being Mr. USA makes the perfect foil… Fans chant “USA” as Lana runs down the States… Rusev now represents Russian and Vladimir Putin… Duggan gets the USA chants going again…

And here comes Rusev to destroy the patriot Jim Duggan… Duggan primes his board in a batting position to defend himself from Rusev… Lana gives him one chance to BEG for mercy… Instead, Duggan chants for USA, RUSEV TAKES THE 2X4 AND BREAKS IT OVER HIS KNEE!!!! Rusecv goes after Duggan, but here comes BIG E!!!! And there goes Big E…. Rusev lays Big E out like he’s nothing… Duggan tends to Big E while RUsev and Lana stand in the ring…

Truth, Xavier, Kofi… now… Big E??? I’m starting to see the pattern others were talking about….

-Commercial Break-

– Damien Sandow comes to ringside with a mic to continue his “pipe bomb” from the pre-show… But he’s interrupted by the Rhodes Brothers…

8. Cody Rhodes (w/Goldust) vs. Damien Sandow. They continue to play up Cody being on a losing streak while Goldust has been winning… Back and forth, Cody hits a twisting sunset flip out of the corner for a near fall… Sandow gets control with stomps and chinlocks… fun… Rhodes with a bunch of quick pinfall attempts… Sandow drop toe holds Cody throat first into the middle rope and jumps on his back… Russian Legsweep by Sandow but he misses the Elbow of Disdain… Damien stays on top and back to a chinlock… Cody steals the Ted Dibiase Jr. chasing clothesline, and the Goldust uppercut, and the Bob Holly kick while Sandow rests over the top rope… Cody tries Cross Rhodes, but Sandow blocks… Sandow gets all over Cody, Goldust yells and distracts the ref. Cody sneaks in an eye rake and the Disaster Kick for the win in 5:00… So Sandown can’t even beat a guy on a losing streak… Cody cheats to win… And Goldust celebrates with his bro…

Up next it’s Batista vs. Reigns…

-Commercial Break-

– Bo Dallas Promo

– Wyatt Family Promo, from the darkness… Bray challenges Cena to a “Last Man Standing” match at Payback….

– The Shield make their way into the ring as we take another break…

-Commercial Break-

9. Roman Reigns vs. Batista. These two go right at each other, brawling to the floor, Reigns rams Batista into the steps… Back inside Roman misses a shoulder charge in the corner… Reigns has control, Evolution cliumb onto the apron, allowing Batista a brief offensive comeback. Rollins and Ambrose decide to take out HHH & Orton, while Reigns nails Batista with the dropkick on the apron… Reigns sets up for the spear or Superman punch or something, but HHH trips him up… HHH goes for a pedigree on Rollins outside, but Ambrose hits a flying assault on the game… Bell sounds, I assume we got a quick no contest after maybe 4:00…

The Shield beat down Evolution and look like they’re ready to take out HHH, when Stephanie McMahon sends out the troops…. Jack Swagger, Titus O’Neil, Ryback, Curtis Axel, 3MB, Brodus Clay, Fandango, even Damien Sandow (that makes sense), are out to attack the Shield… The heels take out the Shield, toss Rollins and Ambrose to the floor… The heels hold Reigns while HHH comes at him with a steel chair, but Roman breaks free AND SPEARS THE GAME!!! Rollins and Reigns return with STEEL CHAIRS and clear the entire ring!!! Fandango gets the forward DDT on a chair from Ambrose. Axel gets curb stomped on a chair from Rollins… SUPERMAN PUNCH to Heath Slater… Spear on Ryback… Triple Powerbomb on Ryback… Evolution watch from the aisle as the Shield celebrate in the ring to end the show… Give them a couple chairs and they can take out the entire heel roster…

We noted before that plans for WWE Payback had been changing at RAW this afternoon. Word now is that WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan is taking a few weeks off due to a neck injury and could be missing Payback. The injury is expected to be announced on RAW tonight.

Bryan will most likely need a minimally-invasive neck “procedure” to fix the injury. If all goes well, he could be back in time for Payback. A source at RAW notes that Bryan has been quiet backstage all day.

Eric Bischoff Talks To Steve Austin About Firing Him From WCW, More

– Eric Bischoff appeared on the latest episode of Steve Austin’s podcast, The Steve Austin Show – Unleashed!, which you can listen to below. During the episode the two discussed Bischoff firing Austin from WCW in 1995. Austin had suffered a triceps injury while wrestling on a Japanese tour, and was fired over the phone by Bischoff.

Austin and Bischoff both gave their take on the firing on the show. Austin noted that he was about 3/4 healed when he was fired. Austin acknowledged that they wanted for him to appear at a TV taping and cut a promo, and that he had volunteered to do something prior to that but was told not to worry about it, which “got up his crawl a little bit.”

Bischoff noted that he wanted Austin to stay on with the roster despite his injury, and felt that they could work around the issues. Bischoff wanted Austin on television to keep his character alive and wanted him to cut a promo. Bischoff admitted that WCW was “a bit of a clusterf-ck” back then and there could have been miscommunication, but he told Tony Schiavone to tell Austin to appear at the tapings. Schiavone called Austin, and told Bischoff that Austin’s wife answered, and he could hear Austin in the background saying that he wasn’t there.

“He ain’t coming,” Schiavone said. Bischoff said he felt that “it was kind of bullsh-t,” which caused him to make the decision that he did. Austin didn’t remember the phone call, but admitted that it was probably true and he probably would have made the same decision that Bischoff did in his shoes.

Batista To Star With Top UFC Star In Remake Of 1980s Action Movie

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Batista is set to star with UFC superstar Georges St-Pierre in Kickboxer, a remake of the 1989 action film starring Jean-Claude Van Damme and world kickboxing champion Dennis Alexio. Stuntman and martial artist Alain Moussi will play the lead role, while Stephen Fung will direct (Tai Chai Zero, Tai Chi Hero).

“Alain is a star and will be an amazing leading man,” said producer Ted Field of Radar Pictures, who is producing the remake alongside Dimitri Logothetis and Nick Celozzi. “Like Vin [Diesel] in Riddick, Alain will make this movie very special and this Kickboxer will be the start of an amazing franchise.”

The film tells the story of Kurt Sloan, who is the corner-man for his brother, kickboxing champion David Sloan. After David wins the Karate World Championship, he is lured to Hong Kong by a promoter and is killed. Kurt then travels to Thailand to train and avenge his brother’s death.

Vader Talks About Working For Eric Bischoff And Vince McMahon, More

Former World Heavyweight Champion Vader recently spoke with Wrestling101. Below are some highlights:

Thoughts on Brock Lesnar, Triple H and The Undertaker:

“Undertaker was just phenomenal and I would say he is the best big man in professional wrestling history, without a doubt.

“I think Brock Lesnar is just a beast, he’s an incredible athlete and he would be great at anything he turned his hand to, I would love to see Brock featured more than he is.

“Triple H is doing a fantastic job running the company now but I would love to see more of him performing in the ring as he is still a tremendous athlete.”

Whether we’ll see him entering the WWE Hall of Fame soon:

“I heard rumblings about it a couple of years ago, but I’ve not heard anything for a while now. I would really like for that to happen, I think I’ve earned it. Yokozuna, Bam Bam Bigelow, King Kong Bundy and myself would be considered super-heavyweights, and I would rank myself very high out of that group, and there is a time in my career in the early nineties where I considered myself to be the best big man.”

Comparing Eric Bischoff and Vince McMahon:

“Eric was put into a situation and I think from a wrestling standpoint he wasn’t really ready for it at that time. He became very educated and excellent at what he did but it was kind of like we had one guy running the wrestling part and then two weeks later we had another guy doing it and so on and so forth until Eric did it. I think Eric was way in over his head initially but he certainly figured it out with the help of Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan and there were times when it became a biased situation but he achieved some great things, he is one of the most successful promoters in the history of professional wrestling.

“What can I say about Vince, he’s a genius, he is the most successful wrestling promoter of all time and just works so hard. He was very approachable and he has done nothing but treat me like a gentleman.”

Regarding why WWE recently released Mason Ryan, officials felt that he wasn’t improving at a fast enough rate. Ryan was well-liked and didn’t have an ego.

It was noted that it must have taken a lot for WWE to release Ryan because he has the size they like and WWE liked the idea of having a Superstar babyface from Wales.

Brock Lesnar ‘Begs’ Dana White For Favor

UFC President Dana White revealed after last night’s UFC Fight Night 40 event in Cincinnati that Brock Lesnar called him to try to convince his friend Pat Barry from fighting again. Barry had suffered seven losses in the UFC, four of which were via knockout or TKO. He was granted his release from the organization to return to kickboxing, and suffered a knockout loss to Zack Mwekassa at the Glory 16 kickboxing show earlier this month.

“Brock Lesnar called me and begged me to make (Pat Barry) retire,” Dana said during last night’s media scrum (props to MMA Weekly for the transcription). “He said, ‘I don’t consider too many people my friend, and I consider Pat Barry a friend. Dana, you got to get this guy to retire.’

“I said, ‘Listen, he’s a grown man Brock. What am I gonna do?’ It’s different with guys like Forrest (Griffin) and Chuck (Liddell), guys that I’ve had relationships with for a long time. Guys who have made a lot of money. That’s the difference. You look at guys like Forrest. Forrest and Chuck are multimillionaires. It’s easy to make them quit. It’s a lot tougher to make a guy quit that has to make a living. I don’t want to hurt Pat Barry or throw a monkey wrench in his life or anything, but at the end of the day, the state athletic commission is gonna need to step in and help a guy like Pat Barry retire… or people that care about him.”

Barry was scheduled to face MMA legend Mirko Cro Cop at Glory 17 in June, however he withdrew from the fight for undisclosed reasons.

ECW TV 1996-06-18 (matches taped at multiple dates and locations)

Champions
World: Raven
TV: Pitbull 2
Tag Team: Eliminators

The show opens with a highlight package of what’s been going on in ECW lately. We see footage of the Taz Paul Varelans feud. Tommy Dreamer and “Primetime” Brian Lee, the troubles that the Dudley family have been having, Pitbull 2 is the new ECW TV Champion, and Rob Van Dam doesn’t respect Sabu.

Joey Styles welcomes us to the show and runs down the Hardcore Heaven card. Sabu takes on Rob Van Dam, Tommy Dreamer versus Brian Lee in a weapons match, Pitbull 2 defends the TV title against Christ Jericho, “The Franchise” Shane Douglas goes up against Mikey Whipwreck, the Samoan Gangsta Party makes their in ring debut, the Gangstas get their last chance at the Eliminators Tag Team Championship and Taz fights Paul Varelans. Brain Pillman has signed with the WWF but has said that he will continue to show up in ECW.

Joey sends us to our first match of the night;

“Primetime” Brian Lee vs. Tommy Dreamer (w/ Beulah & Kimona Wanalaya) ref John Finnegan Falls Count Anywhere (1996-06-08 from Bodyslam Arena in Reading, PA)
Dreamer hits the ring and Lee attacks right away and they go to the floor and into the crowd. Dreamer gets thrown down some bleachers. Dreamer fights back and hits Lee with a crutch. Back to the ringside area and Dreamer uses chairs and cookie trays. Into the crowd again someone hands Dreamer a motorcycle helmet. Dreamer puts it on and headbutts Lee. They fight outside and into the middle of the street as cars try to drive by. Dreamer hits a DDT on the sidewalk. The Bruise Brothers show up and hold a wooden palate in front of his head and give it a big boot. Lee climbs into a loading dock and chokeslams Dreamer through the top of a dumpster and gets the pin at 5.03. About two minutes was edited out of the match.

Stevie Richards (w/ The Blue Meanie) vs. Sandman (w/ Missy Hyatt) ref Paul Richards (1996-06-01 Fight the Power ECW Arena Philadelphia, PA)
Richards and Meanie are dress like the Blue Bloods. Richards serves Missy with for sexual harassment while speaking in an English accent. Raven’s doctor gets in the ring and says that he is the one that did the surgery on the Sandman. He yells at Sandman for still competing and not taking time off because he doesn’t want his professional reputation to be ruined. Missy makes out with the doctor and he faints into Stevie. Sandman nails Stevie with the cane and we get the bell. Steviekick to the Sandman’s knee and a figure four. Sandman gets the cane and hits Stevie with it but the hold is not broken. Stevie gets hit a few more times until Meanie comes in the ring but he gets nailed also. We skip ahead in the match and Sandman canes Stevie again but Stevie comes back with a Steviekick and goes for the figure four again but Sandman rolls him up in a small package for the win. 1.52 of the match is shown. Raven shows up and takes out the Sandman’s knee and puts on the figure four. Raven is covered in blood which confuses me since he wasn’t bleeding during his match with Pitbull 2. Raven canes Sandman while holding onto the figure four. Sandman is left laying in the ring.

Sabu vs. Mikey Whipwreck ref Jim Molinueax (1996-05-18 from Agricultural Hall in Allentown, PA)
This is Sabu’s first match back after being taken out by Rob Van Dam. Sabu takes down Mikey and puts on a leg lock but Mikey turns it into an arm bar. Sabu hits a clothesline and gets a front face lock. Mikey takes a corner whip chest first and Sabu goes to clothesline him but Mikey hits a dropkick. Mikey goes up top but Sabu cuts him off and hits a super hurricanrana. Sabu brings a chair in the ring and goes for air Sabu but Mikey rolls out of the ring. Sabu follows him out and thorws him into the crowd. Sabu jumps off the chair onto the top rope and onto Mikey. Back in the ring Sabu it’s a slam and a springboard moonsault. Camel clutch by Sabu but Mikey is in the ropes. Corner whip Mikey gets to boot up on the charge and goes to the top rope but again Sabu stops him. Sabu goes for a superplex but Mikey pushes him off and hits a swinging DDT. Sabu rolls to the floor and collapses. Mikey follows him out but Sabu whips him to the guardrail and hits air Sabu on the floor. Mikey slams Sabu into the guardrail and throws him into the crowd. Mikey jumps off the top rope onto Sabu in the crowd. Mikey sets up a table on the rail and apron and puts Sabu on it. Mikey goes to the top turnbuckle but for a third time gets stopped. Sabu runs up a chair and jumps to the top rope by Mikey but slips and crotches himself. Mikey hits him with a chair and puts him back on the table. Mikey goes back up the buckle and elbow drops Sabu through the table. Back in the ring Mikey gets a two count. Irish whip reversed by Sabu and it’s a double clothesline. Sabu throws a chair at Mikey. Mikey hits an enziguri and goes up top and hits a splash that gets 2. Mikey goes up again but misses a somersault senton. Sabu throws Mikey onto the top rope and then sits him on the second rope and sits a chair under him. Sabu goes up top and leg drops Mikey sandwiching him between the chair and leg. Mikey kicks out of a pin attempt at 2. Sabu irish whips Mikey and throws him in the air and power bombs him. Sabu goes up top but Mikey stops him this time and arm drags him off the turnbuckle. Sabu throws Mikey in the air again off an irish whip but Mikey hits a frankensteiner this time. Mikey goes up top but Sabu throws a chair and him and drop kicks him off the turnbuckle to the floor as we go to commercial. Back from commercial and Sabu puts Mikey on a table goes back in the ring jumps off a chair onto the rope and DDTs Mikey through the table! Mikey gets back in the ring but Sabu just covers him for the win. 14.44 of the match is shown its announced as being 15.45 so we only missed 1 minute during the commercial. We see a replay of the finish and go back to live action where Sabu and Mikey shake hands.

Hype Central for Hardcore Heaven this Saturday.

Raven sits in the playground of his youth and talks to Stevie Richards about all the girls he brought to him. None of them were dirty enough. So Stevie introduces Raven to Bluedust. It’s the Blue Meanie in nothing but a thong and covered in blue icing. Meanie quotes porno movies and makes fun of Dusty Rhodes.

“Misrilou” promo has D-Von Dudley proclaiming to be the leader of the family, Tommy Dreamer tells Brian Lee he’s taking him to hell, Shane Douglas wants the TV Title back, Gangstas and the Eliminators are each going to kick the others ass, Paul Varelans and Taz are ready for their fight, Stevie hoses down Meanie to get the blue icing off while Meanie does his rendition of the ‘Maniac’ dance, Raven is going to show Sandman pain, Sandman toasts to Dick Murdoch who passed away this week.

My thoughts on the show
Only one full match tonight but it was good one. Lots of good storylines heading into Hardcore Heaven. Not as excited for Hardcore Heaven as I was for the last supershow Matter of Respect but definitely still looking forward to it. The Sabu Mikey match is worth checking out but the rest of the show can be skipped.
