Chyna tags in and Eddie backs into her before she hammers him with forearms. Chyna goes for a whip, Eddie reverses but Chyna hits a neckbreaker. Eddie scampers to his corner and tags in Dean Malenko but Malenko runs into a drop toehold. Road Dogg tags in and hits the juke ‘n jive punches before whipping Malenko into a backdrop. Saturn distracts the referee while Malenko stomps Road Dogg through the ropes and Chris Benoit gets in a shot on the floor before throwing Road Dogg back in the ring.

Billy decks Eddie when Malenko goes to whip him but Billy counters into the Rocker Dropper. Benoit breaks up the pin and everyone pours in and starts going at it while Billy somehow tags in Triple H. Triple H sets Malenko up for a Pedigree but Eddie interrupts him so Triple H decks Eddie then hits the Pedigree on Malneko and covers for the three. **3/4 This was super super fucking awesome for 5 minutes. Gunn was really motivated here, and he and Eddie had a great exchange to open. The Radicalz heat segment on Road Dogg was brutalally awesome, and Dogg was a fantastic face in peril as always. H's hot tag ruled shit, I personally would of had the Radicalz win mainly cause what happen at the end of the night.

WWF Raw Is War 11/06/2000 - Stone Cold Steve Austin & The Rock vs. Kurt Angle & Rikishi

Before the match The Rock is also walking to the ring when he’s suddenly run down by an equipment dolly and knocked into the concrete wall. The camera pans around to find who did it but that person has run off. Rock is down on the floor when someone discovers him and gets help as we go to commercial.We get a quick shot of Foley sending an ambulance on his way promising to get to the bottom of this so it looks like Austin’s on his own. Incidentally we’re already at two to the hour so this is going to be either a short match or a long overrun. Austin pulls Angle out of the ring and tess off on him on the floor then rams him into the announce table. Austin catches Rikishi trying to sneak up from behind and throws him into the steps.

Meanwhile Rikishi pulls out a sledgehammer from under the ring and brings it in but Austin cuts him off. Austin stomps Rikishi down in a corner when Angle nails him from behind and finally Angle and Rikishi take control of this. Angle and Rikishi double-team Austin and at this point you can tell the fans are looking for a run-in. Angle and Rikishi have Austin down when sure enough out comes … Triple H? Triple H goes right after Angle and throws him over the ropes while Austin stomps Rikishi down in a corner and knocks him through the ropes as well. Austin turns around when … Triple H nails him in the head with the sledgehammer! Huh?! Triple H then slips on a black glove and unloads on Austin’s open wound. Earl Hebner tries to get him to stop but Triple H drops him with a right hand as well. Triple H then sets Austin in a corner as Rikishi goes up and hits the Banzai Drop to finish him off. Finally Triple H grabs a mic and tells Austin that his search is over and now he knows. Triple H and Rikishi exchange a high ten and Austin is left laying as Raw goes off the air.

YEP that's right the winner gets a shot at Angle @ Survivor Series, cause with ten day left this is the best way to build one of your big 4 PPV's.

Benoit whips Jericho and connects with an elbow then hits a back suplex followed by a backbreaker for a two count.

Taker throws Benoit over the ropes while Kane comes in and chokeslams Jericho. However Taker manages to chokeslam Kane then hits the Last Ride on Jericho and gets the three count. ** We get a solid minute and a half of Benoit vs. Jericho being fucking awesome to start, so that's always good. The rest of this was less awesome, but still pretty fun, with an enjoyable finishing run. They worked a story where Kane wanted to hurt Jericho more than he wanted to win, and kept actively costing Jericho the match. So it’s going to be Angle/The Undertaker and i remember how AWFUL that was

Meanwhile Austin and Billy are taking care of Saturn and Malenko on the floor. Austin gets back in the ring and goes at it with Eddie, stomping him down in a corner. Chyna whips Malenko into the steps and Austin hits the Stunner on Eddie to get the three. However we cut to the back to find Rock and Benoit still going at it, probably not aware the match is over. Rock rams Benoit into the interview set then into some pipes and a Pepsi machine then whacks him with a trash can. However Benoit manages to come back and rams Rock into a concrete wall. Benoit then starts waving to somebody off in the distance and a black car appears with Rikishi leaning out of the window holding a sledgehammer. Once the car drives by (with Triple H behind the wheel) Rikishi nails Rock right in the chest with the hammer and sends him flying. Rock is writhing in pain on the floor as Rikishi climbs out with Triple H and tells Rock he can expect more of the same at Survivor Series. Rikishi and Triple H then peel off in the car while Rock is left laying as Raw goes off the air. *** This was great for 10 minutes. The only thing i didn't like was Chyna in the match and the fact that the Radicalz had the heat segment on Chyna so you know the work was average cause she was FUCKING AWFUL at everything.

Angle celebrates on the ramp while Taker glares at him from the ring and gives him the throat slash, causing Angle to get a little nervous. **1/2 Fun brawl but Angle was still made to look weak against him since it was Kane’s chairshot that led to his win. Thus it’s not enough to convince me Angle stands a chance against Taker at the pay-per-view. Jericho getting Chokeslammed through the announce table was a great spot.

ECW 9/26/06: Rob Van Dam vs. Hardcore Holly Extreme Rules

This is the match where right around the half way point Holly suplexes Van Dam from the apron through a table and on to the floor. Holly's back gets slashed in the process (he later recieved 20 some stitches). This match is by no means a technical masterpiece but watching Holly continue in the match and continue to take bumps is pretty damn cool. That dude was as tough as they come. I look back at WWE's version of ECW with a great deal of disdain but this is one match that has always stuck out for me. Give it a generous *** due to Holly's toughness and me being a Van Dam mark...

Rikishi continues to taunt Rock and we’re left wondering if Rock can recover in time. ***1/2 This was 11 minutes straight up one on one AWESOMENESS. Benoit working on Rock's hurt chest and midsection was great and violent, and the general amazing chemistry that these two have with each other. Just wish they didn't need a non-finish to sell his match with Rikishi.

PWG Battle of Los Angeles 2012 (Night Two) - Quarterfinal Match: Sami Callihan vs. TJ Perkins

This was fun to begin with but then collapsed in the middle to these normal Indy i do some moves and you don't sell match, this was great for an opener tho. But I hope to see a rematch somewhere down the road cause i know it will be better than this. Sami was pretty much Steen 2.0 here just without the crowd interactions. ***

PWG Battle of Los Angeles 2012 (Night Two) - Quarterfinal Match: Eddie Edwards vs. Adam Cole

These guys are super best friends in Ring of Honor, but in PWG, Cole is a playboy! The crowd is pretty split for this one. Excalibur says when Cole looks at him, he gets a little shiver. Just remember folks. It’s not gay if it’s Adam Cole. I like this match over their GBH XI match, mainly because they showed more personality during this match than then their entire run in ROH. Cole stole the show with his hilarious antics. The "Suck My Dick" oriented offense early on cracked me up. From that this breaks down into a damn good brawl match with the usual spots. Cole has now beaten a former PWG world champion and now a former ROH world champion. GIVE THIS MAN A TITLE. ***1/4 - ***1/2
