*The following show contains overbooked madness. After all, this is WCW 2000…You’ve been warned…*
A brief video package plays hyping up all
TEN of our exciting matches for Souled Out!
Fireworks blast, the crowd roars in excitement-
WE ARE LIVE from The Firstar Arena in Cincinnati, Ohio for WCW Souled Out! Greeted by Tony Schiavone, Bobby Heenan and Mike Tenay, the all-star announce crew welcomes us to the
FIRST PAY-PER-VIEW of the NEW MILLENNIUM- SOULED OUT! They run down the card once more to really hammer home the point that we have 10 action-packed matches scheduled for tonight!
We are ready for our opening contest, and what a contest we have in store!
The Filthy Animals- the team of Eddy Guerrero, Billy Kidman and Konnan look to take out months of frustration on The Revolution- led by Shane Douglas, Dean Malenko and Perry Saturn!
The Filthy Animals are out first, and they garner a big pop from the crowd. Torrie Wilson is sporting a neck brace after Asya chokeslammed her through a table on Nitro, which we see a clip of as they continue walking down the entrance ramp. Guerrero and Kidman pose on the top turnbuckles while Konnan poses on the ropes…
The Revolution is out next, and the crowd
HATES them! They don’t care, as they have one thing in mind tonight, and that’s
DISBANDING The Filthy Animals! They soak in the boos from the crowd as they walk down the entrance ramp…
WHEN ALL THREE FILTHY ANIMALS SKY THROUGH THE AIR, LANDING RIGHT ON TOP OF THE REVOLUTION AT RINGSIDE!!!
Match 1- Losing Faction Must Disband
The Filthy Animals (Eddy Guerrero, Billy Kidman & Konnan) w/Torrie Wilson
Vs.
The Revolution (Shane Douglas, Perry Saturn & Dean Malenko) w/Asya
There is carnage at ringside to start us off as all six men brawl around the ring. Kidman and Douglas trade blows while Konnan tosses Malenko into the steel guard rail! Guerrero and Saturn are rolling around on the ground, pounding away at each other!
Douglas pulls out a table on one side while Saturn grabs a few chairs from underneath the ring.
THESE TWO TEAMS MEAN BUSINESS!
Finally, Saturn and Guerrero make their way into the ring so the referee can officially call for the opening bell. They don’t last long in the ring when Saturn clotheslines Guerrero over the ropes and to the floor! Saturn clutches his hands for his signature pose before bouncing off the ropes. Saturn flies over the top rope…
AND IS MET WITH A CHAIRSHOT TO THE FACE BY EDDY GUERRERO!!
Konnan and Douglas make it to the ring apron, where they trade blows. Malenko has Kidman sprawled out on the steel guard rail, and delivers a vicious knife-edge chop! Douglas delivers a blatant low blow on Konnan (This is a war, there are no rules…) before placing him in between his legs. Douglas then lifts Konnan up…
DOUGLAS WITH A LEAPING PILEDRIVER OFF THE APRON ON KONNAN THROUGH THE TABLE!!!
Eddy and Saturn are continuing their brawl, and Saturn gains the upper hand. He scoops Eddy up and slams him on top of the fallen Konnan through the pile of rubble caused from Shane Douglas’ piledriver spot. Malenko and Kidman make it inside the ring. Dean goes for a dropkick but Kidman blocks it, bounces off the ropes and connects with a
HEADSCISSORS TAKEDOWN!!
Kidman then quickly hops to the top turnbuckle, looking down at Saturn and Douglas…
KIDMAN WITH A SHOOTING STAR PRESS ONTO BOTH MEN AT RINGSIDE!!!
Kidman hops back inside the ring where Malenko is waiting with a
HUGE CHAIR SHOT!! Torrie enters the ring to check on her boyfriend, and this is all Asya needs to insert herself into the ring! Asya picks up the chair and begins to taunt Torrie. Torrie pleads with Asya but Asya doesn’t care! Asya winds back and goes to hit Torrie…
BUT KIDMAN TACKLES HER OUT OF THE WAY…
AND ASYA DRILLS DEAN MALENKO ACROSS THE HEAD WITH THE CHAIR!!
Asya drops the chair and checks on Malenko. Torrie is back on her feet, and picks up the dropped chair. She turns Asya around…
VICIOUS CHAIR SHOT FROM TORRIE WILSON TO ASYA!!!
Asya is
BUSTED WIDE OPEN from the chair shot as Torrie rolls out of the ring, out of harm’s way.
Back on the outside, Guerrero has set up
ANOTHER table, lodging it between the ring apron and the guard rail. On the other side, Douglas and Saturn double-team on Konnan, with Douglas holding Konnan’s arms back while Saturn delivers gut punches.
Kidman rolls the still woozy Malenko out of the ring and places him on top of the table. Eddy begins his climb to the top turnbuckle…
FROG SPLASH FROM EDDY ON MALENKO THROUGH THE TABLE!!!
Kidman then quickly rolls the now completely woozy Malenko back inside the ring. He sets him up in the corner before climbing once more to the top. Kidman leaps off…
SHOOTING STAR PR-NOO!
SATURN DROPKICKS KIDMAN IN MID-AIR!!!
The crowd loves the spot! Saturn is back up on his feet…
Somersault clothesline from Konnan to Saturn!!
Saturn is down for not more than a second when…
GUERRERO FLIES INTO OUR PICTURE WITH A FROG SPLASH ON SATURN!!
Guerrero gets back up to his feet…
WICKED CHAIRSHOT FROM SHANE DOUGLAS!!!
The chair shot echoes throughout the arena! Eddy is down and out! Douglas turns around…
Somersault clothesline from Konnan to Douglas!!!
Konnan is back up to his feet where Malenko is finally back up…
BRAINBUSTER TO KONNAN!!!
Malenko gets to his feet…
REY MYSTERIO HAS JOINED THE PARTY! BAD LEG AND ALL!!!
During this chaos, Mysterio hobbles out and climbs to the top turnbuckle…
FLYING CROSS BODY TO MALENKO!!!
Rey rolls out of the way and out of our picture, which clears room for Billy Kidman to fly into our picture…
SHOOTING STAR PRESS ON MALENKO!!!
Holy shit!!! Chaos everywhere!!!
Kidman hooks Malenko’s leg, and with everybody else down, there is nobody to break up the attempt…
1…2…3!!!
Winners- The Filthy Animals
THE REVOLUTION MUST NOW DISBAND!!!
While The Filthy Animals all celebrate inside the ring, an irate Shane Douglas slides out of the ring. He slams his hands down on the mat in disgust. He looks over at both Saturn and Malenko before he flips them off!!!
This draws a slight cheer from the crowd, but Douglas doesn’t want cheers-
HE THEN LOOKS OUT AT THE CAPACITY CROWD AND FLIPS THEM OFF TOO!!!
Douglas begins to walk back up the entrance ramp as he looks into the camera…
“Don’t worry. I have better people to surround myself with. Just wait and see!”
Back inside the ring, it’s all smiles for The Filthy Animals, who do not have to disband! The group hugs it out as they soak in the cheers from the crowd…
Our announcers try their best to bring us all back down to earth following that chaotic opening bout. They shift focus and begin talking about our next match- which will feature two of the brightest stars in WCW today-
Vampiro and Chris “Champagne” Kanyon!
We cut to what appears to be the basement of our venue where Vampiro has green smoke around him. He sits atop of a stack of wooden pallets. *
Why is Vampiro in the basement? Because he’s a spooky character and that’s what they fucking do!*
“Kanyon, you should have kept your mouth shut while you had the chance. You’re too cocky for your own good, and tonight, it’s my opportunity to humble you. See, what you should know by now is when you pick a fight with me, you won’t win. I have a tendency of turning everyone around me to the dark side. They look in the mirror at what they have become and they embrace it. Kanyon, tonight you will embrace your dark side!”
We cut to Mene Gene, who is standing by with
Kanyon and his host of ladies. Kanyon stands with confidence as Mene Gene asks him his thoughts on his match against Vampiro, which is just moments away.
“Gene, I’ll tell you like it is. I haven’t thought much about Vampiro. You wanna know why? Because he is chump change. He isn’t anything more than another small stone I need to step over to get to the top of WCW, which is where I am headed. Take it to the bank! Tonight, Vampiro, I back up my smack talk and show you why Chris ‘Champagne’ Kanyon is the hottest ticket in town!”
Vampiro is out first to a very loud reaction. The quirky Vampiro slowly walks down the entrance ramp, slapping a few fans’ hands in the process.
Kanyon is out next to a loud host of boos. Kanyon is flanked by a gorgeous woman at each arm, while he smokes a cigar. He struts down the ramp as he takes in the crowd’s hate.
Our announcers say that if anybody can humble Kanyon, it’s Vampiro…We shall see…
Match 2- Grudge Match
Vampiro vs. Chris “Champagne” Kanyon
The two men start by testing each other out. Kanyon tries to keep Vampiro grounded, while Vampiro does whatever he can to speed the match up. Kanyon sinches in a headlock and refuses to let it go. Vampiro tries to bounce him off the ropes but instead, Kanyon slides down, taking Vampiro with him. While Kanyon has the headlock sinched in, he looks over at one of our WCW camera, and tells us all watching at home…
“I can do whatever I want, I’m the hottest thing going in WCW!”
Just as Kanyon talks smack into the camera, Vampiro quickly reverses out of the headlock and
PUTS KANYON IN A STF!!
Kanyon crawls towards the ropes to break the hold. He then slides out of the ring, looking to take a breather on the outside. His breather is short-lived, as Vampiro flies over the ropes…
SLINGSHOT PLANCHA ONTO KANYON!!
Vampiro is up on his feet, soaking in the cheers from the crowd. He hammers away at Kanyon before smashing his head of the ring apron. Kanyon responds with an elbow to Vampiro’s mid-section, pushing Vampiro off of Kanyon. Kanyon follows up with a big boot, knocking Vampiro to the ground! Kanyon then slides Vampiro back inside the ring.
Kanyon once again shows his offensive innovation as he slingshots back over the ropes, connecting with a slingshot elbow drop! Kanyon covers Vampiro, but before the referee can get past a 1 count, Kanyon lifts Vampiro up.
Our announcers talk about how Kanyon shouldn’t be toying with a man like Vampiro right now, and that this cockiness can come back to bite him! Kanyon, however, doesn’t care, as he gloats while applying another headlock to Vampiro.
This time, Vampiro elbows his way out of it. Vamps then sends Kanyon off the ropes and connects with a
HUGE CLOTHESLINE!! Both men are down, Vampiro is up first. Vampiro climbs to the top rope, stalking his prey in Kanyon. Kanyon slowly gets to his feet…
TOP ROPE SPINNING HEEL KICK FROM VAMPIRO!!!
After a near fall, Vampiro stays on the offensive. Vampiro begins to take control before sending Kanyon into the corner. Vampiro follows up with a vicious knife-edge chop that echoes throughout the arena! Vampiro then lifts Kanyon to the top turnbuckle, and follows behind him…
Vampiro punches away at Kanyon as he begins to stand on the top. Vampiro hooks Kanyon’s arm for a
SUPERPLEX attempt, but Kanyon blocks it. Both men are now standing at the very top of the turnbuckles, legs both wobbling. Kanyon cocks back…
KANYON GOES FOR A TOP-ROPE FLATLINER…
BUT VAMPIRO REVERSES IT JUST BEFORE THEY BOTH JUMP OFF…
AND HITS A TOP-ROPE NAIL IN THE COFFIN!!!!
Vampiro hooks the leg!!
1…2…3!!
Winner- Vampiro
The crowd is still in awe of the mid-air reversal, as Vampiro gets his hand raised. He soaks in the applause from the crowd before looking down at Kanyon. Vampiro tells Kanyon
“Humble yourself….” before he heads for the back.
Back inside the ring, Kanyon gets to his feet and is visibly frustrated. The women he came with try to console him, but he pushes them away. The distraught Kanyon walks up the entrance ramp alone, hands on his hips, head down in shame as our announcers say maybe this was a wake-up call for Kanyon to quit being so cocky all of the time…
We get a surprise vignette!
An Insane Asylum is shown. We can hear screams and shouts. We then begin to hear a voice…
“WCW is in a state of turmoil…”
The screams and shouts intensify…
“One could say, WCW is on the brink of collapse. Grasping for air, scratching and clawing for life…”
The camera pans into a man dressed in an all red suit. He sits down in front of one of the inmate’s doors on an old, beat up steel chair.
“I call it the APOCALYPSE! The RAPTURE!”
The man lets out a sadistic laugh…
“Don’t fret, WCW. I am back. And I have a plan. A plan so SINISTER that it will make the hairs on your neck stand tall. A plan so SINISTER that it will rock WCW to its core…”
The man in his all red suit re-positions himself on the chair. He places his hands on a red walking cane that has a golden snake head welded onto the top of it…
“WCW, the wheels are already in motion. The plan is nearly complete. You won’t know about this plan until IT HITS YOU RIGHT IN BETWEEN YOUR EYES!”
The man crosses his hands on his snake-head walking cane and stares a hole through your television set…
“The SINISTER plan!”
Another round of screams and shouts from the insane asylum are heard before we quickly cut to static…
Back down at the commentary desk the trio talk about how we all just saw
FATHER JAMES give us a chilling warning. They then shift focus as they hype up
WCW MAYHEM THE VIDEO GAME!!
CLICK THIS LINK FOR THE BEST 30 SECONDS OF YOUR WEEK!
We head to the parking lot where we see a Luxury Bus parked in the back. We get closer until we can see a big sign that reads:
“The Founding Fathers”. Inside the bus WCW Champion Bret Hart, WCW Tag Team Champions The Outsiders, Lex Luger and Liz are all hanging out, getting ready for their matches tonight here at Souled Out. The group is talking strategy, and when they notice the camera man creeping up, Kevin Nash quickly tells him to
“GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE! WE’RE DISCUSSING IMPORTANT BUSINESS!”
Back down at ringside we get hyped up for our first Title match of the night,
THE HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP!! Our announcers run down the participants, and bring up how Disco Inferno needs to win this match more than anybody so that he can pawn the Hardcore title off to The Outfit to get out of debt. Bobby Heenan cracks a Pete Rose joke, saying we are in Cincinnati, maybe Disco can ask Pete Rose how to get out of this situation…
Disco is out first, with a concerned look on his face. He is completely paranoid as he continuously looks over his shoulder on the way down to the ring.
Bigelow is out next, Finlay follows him, then Norman Smiley who is rocking a Boomer Esiasion jersey, comes out pushing a shopping cart full of weapons!
Match 3- Hardcore Championship- Four The Hard Way
©Norman Smiley vs. Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Fit Finlay vs. Disco Inferno
The referee calls for the bell and then gets the hell out of the way! Bigelow clotheslines Finlay over the top and to the floor, while Disco and Norman stand off in the ring. Both men go to hit the ropes, and both men decide to hit the deck. Neither of them wants to fight!
Their peaceful approach is short-lived when
BIGELOW DRILLS SMILEY OVER THE HEAD WITH A TRASH CAN…
WHILE FINLAY DRILLS DISCO OVER THE HEAD WITH A STOP SIGN!!
All four men are at the ringside area, as Bigelow tackles Finlay into the steel steps! Norman Smiley begins to scream as he runs full speed ahead with a trash can and decks Bigelow over his back, but Bigelow doesn’t budge! The three men are all within distance of each other…
WHEN DISCO COMES FLYING OFF THE TOP ROPE…HITTING ALL THREE MEN WITH THE STOP SIGN!!!
Disco goes for a quick cover on Finlay but he kicks out!
Bigelow gets up and grabs a hold of Smiley, and tosses him hard into the guard rail. Bigelow turns around and gets drilled in the face with a trash can lid from Finlay!
All four men begin to brawl up the entrance ramp, and eventually through the curtain to the backstage area…
WHERE BRIAN KNOBBS IS WAITING WITH A FIRE EXTINGUISHER!!
Knobbs, a friend of Finlay, gets Bigelow right in the face with the extinguisher, while also getting Disco’s perfectly quaffed hair in the process! Norman Smiley lives up to his name and begins to run away, screaming the whole way! Eventually, Finlay and Knobbs catch up to him and toss him into a bunch of staging boxes. They then turn around and Bigelow is waiting, and he
HITS KNOBBS OVER THE HEAD WITH THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER!!
Finlay charges at Bigelow but Bigelow ducks and SPRAYS THE EXTINGUISHER INTO FINLAY’S FACE!!
The four Hardcore men just so happen to be standing right next to an elevator, which Bigelow presses to open. He drags the unconscious Knobbs into the elevator and presses up, getting rid of Knobbs from the match!
Bigelow turns around and Finlay is waiting, and tackles Bigelow through a set of doors that lead to the catering area! Disco charges at Bigelow who is waiting…
BIGELOW WITH A CHOKESLAM TO DISCO THROUGH A TABLE!!
Bigelow then grabs a hold of Smiley AND CHOKESLAMS HIM ON TOP OF DISCO!!
Bigelow then sets up another table, picks up a trash can and hits Smiley over the head with it. He places Smiley and Finlay on top of the table and begins to scale a stack of wooden crates. Bigelow gets to the top of the wooden crates, looks back down at the table…
AND HITS A MOONSAULT THROUGH THE TABLE!!!
At the last second, Norman Smiley moves, so Bigelow just gets Finlay through the table with the impressive move! Smiley looks to capitalize and pins Bigelow, but before he can even hook the leg…
DISCO DRILLS SMILEY IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD…
WITH A FROZEN FISH!?!?!?!
Smiley lets out one last scream for tonight as Disco covers him…
1…2…3!!!
Winner AND NEW HARDCORE CHAMPION- Disco Inferno
Disco gets up and looks all around for the title, asking the referee where it is. The referee points down to Norman Smiley, who has been wearing the Hardcore title THIS ENTIRE TIME underneath his helmet and shoulder pads! Disco rips the belt off of Smiley and runs through the back, knowing he doesn’t have much time to pay off his debts!
For now,
Disco Inferno is YOUR NEW Hardcore Champion!!
Our announcer team recaps everything we’ve just witnessed, which is a lot. They wonder if Disco will be able to pawn the Hardcore title off!
(Real Sid sold separatley)
After the awesome Action Figure ad, we cut to the back where Goldberg and Sid are getting ready for their respective matches inside the locker room. Goldberg is lacing up his boots while Sid places tape on his wrist.
“Sid, remember. Just because we have an alliance now doesn’t mean I won’t take your head off after you win the World title tonight. But that doesn't mean I won't help you tonight. You have my word that The Founding Fathers won't come anywhere near the ring during your match. All you have to do is take care of business…”
Goldberg says to Sid, and this definitely gets
THE MILLENNIUM MAN’S attention as he looks over at Goldberg. The two then stand inches a part from each other. Sid looks at Goldberg and nods. A tense situation between WCW’s two top men!!
Back in the parking lot, a limousine pulls up.
RIC FLAIR and his long-time pal,
ARN ANDERSON hop out of it. No women, no liquor, these two men mean business tonight. Flair lets out a “WOO!” for fun, while Arn is here to help his friend win back the WCW Presidency!
Mene Gene is standing by with all three members of 3 Count. Helms, Moore and Karagias are locked in tonight, and all three say that they guarantee one of them will win the Cruiserweight title, and when one of them wins, they all win!
Our announcers hype up the big Cruiserweight Championship match, and talk about how Madusa relinquished the title after her contract expired on January 1, 2000. From there, a Six Man Challenge was made for the vacant title!
Prince Iaukea is out first as the fans boo. Iaukea is flanked with the lovely Paisley, as the duo has come to be over the past few weeks. Iaukea is dressed in all purple, paying homage to the singer Prince.
Chavo Guerrero is out next, and he garners a mixed reaction. We haven’t seen much of Chavo lately, but throughout 1999 he was embroiled in a feud with his uncle Eddy, while he mourned the loss of his toy horse, Pepe. Chavo looks more serious tonight, and it could be an instance of Chavo turning over a new leaf to start the new millennium.
La Parka is out next, to a huge reaction from the crowd. La Parka has his trusted chair in hand as he dances down to the ring.
There is a dramatic pause before the lights dim. Three spotlights form as we see Helms, Moore and Karagias standing on big green circles at the top of the entrance ramp. They go through their boy band routine as the crowd
ABSOLUTLEY HATES THESE THREE!
After the performance, they head down to the ring as we get set for some Cruiserweight action!
Match 5- Cruiserweight Championship- Six Man Challenge for the Vacant Title
Evan Karagias vs. Shannon Moore vs. Shane Helms vs. La Parka vs. Chavo Guerrero vs. Prince Iaukea
The bell rings as 3 Count surveys the scene. The other three men size them up, and before any contact can be made, 3 Count all roll out of the ring and to the floor. While on the floor, the trio huddles up, and then break the huddle…
WHEN LA PARKA, CHAVO AND IAUKEA ALL DIVE THROUGH THE MIDDLE ROPE IN UNISON, ALL LANDING ON THREE COUNT!!!
The crowd loves the move as the other three men are back on their feet,
AND THEY BEGIN TO BRAWL!
Chavo and La Parka trade blows before Iaukea jumps in on it. They end up back in the ring, where La Parka begins to gain control over both men. La Parka tosses Iaukea off the ropes…
TILT-A-WHIRL BACKBREAKER!!
La Parka has no time to enjoy the move…
CHAVO OFF THE TOP ROPE WITH A MISSILE DROPKICK TO LA PARKA!!
All three men are down in the middle of the ring. The crowd is on their feet as we get some action flying into our screen…
KARAGIAS, HELMS AND MOORE ALL FROM DIFFERENT TURNBUCKLES WITH SYNCHRONIZED TOP ROPE LEG DROPS!!!
All members of 3 Count pin their respective foe, and La Parka, Chavo and Iaukea all kick out at 2!
3 Count begins to argue with each other, which is something that our announcers, Heenan in particular, have been waiting for. Karagias, with his back turned to the ring, gets drilled with a Dropkick by Chavo Guerrero, which forces Karagias to knock Shannon Moore out of the ring!!
Karagias turns back around, and La Parka is waiting with a Spinning Heel Kick, and this time, Karagias gets bounced into Shane Helms, knocking Helms onto the outside floor, and he lands on top of Shannon Moore in the process!
Karagias hugs the middle rope as he looks out at his fallen friends. He gets to his feet, turns around,
AND ALL THREE MEN DROPKICK KARAGIAS OUT OF THE RING, LANDING RIGHT ON TOP OF HELMS AND MOORE!!
3 Count is now neutralized, which gives the other three an opportunity to win the Cruiserweight gold! Chavo tosses La Parka hard, shoulder first, into the ring post. He then ducks a clothesline attempt from Iaukea, catches the purple Prince right where he wants him….
GORY BOMB!!!
Chavo goes for the cover!!
1…2….
WAIT!
La Parka flies through the air, timing the pinfall up perfectly…
LA PARKANATOR ON CHAVO GUERRERO!!!
La Parka got some of Iaukea, too, who is still down from the Gory Bomb. The crowd is behind La Parka who crawls to cover Iaukea…
1…2….3!!!
3 Count attempt to break up the pinfall attempt,
BUT THEY ARE TOO LATE!!! LA PARKA WINS!!!
Winner AND NEW CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPION- La Parka
La Parka is handed his newly won Cruiserweight Championship and holds it high in the air as the crowd goes crazy! La Parka hops over the guard rail and holds his title high in the air, celebrating with the fans in the first few rows!
3 Count continue to argue inside the ring, until they decide to make up and hug it out. Back up on the entrance ramp, La Parka has ditched his chair for the CW title, which he plays air guitar on all the way up the ramp and through the curtain!
We head to the back where the newly crowned Hardcore Champion Disco Inferno is walking down the hallway. He knocks on a door that has a big sign on it titled
“EXECUTIVE GAME: DO NOT DISTURB!” Disco knocks on the door, and Tony Marinara opens it.
“AOOO what have we here? Disco, coming in clutch! Ay, Vito. Look what the cat dragged in…”
Disco quietly enters the room where a big game of poker is in progress. Around the table sits Big Vito, Johnny the Bull, Barry Darsow and both Villanos. All men are smoking cigars, as the smoke is like a dense fog around the table. Disco, a degenerate gambler, becomes more interested in the card game than his Hardcore title.
“If it isn't the dancing king himself... Here, let me take a look…”
Big Vito says as Disco tosses it to him.
“Vito, since we’re even now. You mind spotting me? What are you guys playing? Stud? Follow the Queen?”
Disco asks as Vito looks over at Johnny, who takes a big puff of his cigar before smiling.
“Sure, sit right now. We’ll buy you in.”
Johnny says as Disco gladly sits down.
“Wait, Disco. Don’t sit yet. Lookin’ at dis ting, I like what I see. Let me pin you for it.”
Disco happily obliges as he lies down on the floor. Big Vito pins Disco as Tony Marinara makes the count.
NEW HARDCORE CHAMPION- BIG VITO!
Disco gets up and sits down, gathering his chips. Vito and Johnny make eye contact again and smirk at each other, knowing full well that Disco is about to once again be in over his head!
We see a brief promo for
SuperBrawl 2000! The next installment in our PPV series, which takes place in February!
Heading back down to the commentary table, the trio talks about Disco’s gambling woes, while hyping up Big Vito as the NEW Hardcore Champion! They then shift focus and begin talking about Goldberg, and how in a few short minutes he will get his hands on the man that eliminated him from the New Year’s Evil Battle Royal- Lex Luger!
Lex Luger is out first, with Liz by his side. “The Total Package” poses while flexing for the world to see, but the crowd boos him heavily. Luger has his work cut out for him right now!
Goldberg is out next to a MASSIVE reaction from the crowd! Goldberg is loved by the fans, and they are loving him even more tonight knowing the wreckage he is about to cause inside the ring on Lex Luger!
Match 5- Grudge Match
Goldberg vs. Lex Luger
The bell rings as Goldberg immediately charges at Luger. Luger smartly hits the deck and heads to the outside, where Liz is waiting for him. Luger uses Liz as a human shield, preventing Goldberg from attacking. Goldberg is out for blood tonight and slides out of the ring, beginning to chase Luger around the ringside area!
Luger rolls back inside the ring and Goldberg follows suit. Luger goes for a right hand but Goldberg eats it! Luger with another right hand, this time adding in his steel-plated forearm, but once again,
GOLDBERG DOESN’T BUDGE! Instead, he lets out an animalistic roar and pummels Luger with a clothesline!
Goldberg waits for Luger to get back up and slams him back down to the mat. Goldberg isn’t finished with Luger, the man that cost him his World Championship opportunity tonight, and lifts him back up…
GORILLA PRESS SLAM!!!
Goldberg explodes up, signaling for the end! Goldberg stalks Luger like a lion stalks its dinner….
LIZ HOPS UP ON THE APRON!
Liz, who knows how to manage, gets the referee’s attention, all while slipping Luger
A PAIR OF BRASS KNUCKLES!!
The referee has his attention on Liz, who holds onto the referee’s shirt, not letting him budge…
Luger places the brass knucks on his hands and slowly gets to his feet…
BUT NOT BEFORE HE RUNS STRAIGHT INTO A SPEAR BY GOLDBERG!!!
The brass knucks go flying in the air, as Luger didn’t even have time to use them! Goldberg looks down at the brass knuckles that have landed right at his feet. He picks them up and looks down at Luger…
RIGHT WHEN THE REFEREE FINALLY TURNS AROUND!!!
The referee sees Goldberg holding the brass knuckles, and Luger completely knocked out cold on the mat…
AND CALLS FOR THE BELL!!!
Winner VIA DQ- Lex Luger
Goldberg is
HOT as he tries to plead his case to referee Charles Robinson, but to no avail. Goldberg places his hands on his hips, looking out to the crowd who continues to cheer him on. Goldberg turns back around…
AND SPEARS REFEREE CHARLES ROBINSON RIGHT OUT OF HIS SHOES!!!
Goldberg shifts his attention to Luger, who is still out cold. He grabs Luger by the hair, brings him up to his feet…
JACKHAMMER TO LEX LUGER!!!
Goldberg may have just lost on a technicality, but he has exacted revenge on Lex Luger! He grabs a hold of the mic following this onslaught…
“
FOUNDING FATHERS! More specifically, BRET HART…YOU’RE NEXT!!!”
Goldberg drops the mic and heads to the back as Liz rushes into the ring to check on Luger. Goldberg could have cared less how the match ended, he showed up and put The Founding Fathers on notice by taking out one of their own!
The announcers begin to hype up tomorrow night’s Monday Nitro by saying that
STING WILL BE THERE….AND HE HAS A HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT! They then begin to speculate just what Sting’s announcement could be, as he hasn’t been seen in weeks inside WCW!
In the back, we see
Chris Benoit doing push-ups, getting ready for his big United States Championship match later on tonight!
We head back to The Founding Fathers’ RV, where Hall and Nash have emerged. They look into the camera, who is stationed in the parking lot and NOT near their RV…
“Founding Fathers about to go 2-0 right now. You can take that to the BANK!”
Nash shouts as the duo head on in for our next contest, The WCW Tag Team Championship match!
Mene Gene is standing by with Booker T and Stevie Ray, Harlem Heat as you know them, moments before their big matchup. Both men say they have buried the hatchet and have turned over a new leaf, because winning the tag titles for an
ELEVENTH time is more important than any beef they got right now,
sucka!
Harlem Heat heads down to the ring as they get a big reaction from the crowd, especially after Booker T jumps up and fire shoots out of the entrance ramp! They slap the fans hands as they head into the ring, before giving each other a hug and a high five…
The Outsiders- Scott Hall and Kevin Nash- are out next to a loud chorus of boos! The cool kids strut down to the ring, showing off their Tag Team titles for the world to see. They slowly make their way into the ring for the big match!!
Match 6- WCW Tag Team Championship
©The Outsiders vs. Harlem Heat
Right off the bat, The Outsiders show why they are the champs by cutting the ring in half of Stevie Ray. Power moves from Nash keep Stevie grounded, and then a tag to Hall who continues the assault. Booker T pounds the turnbuckle and stomps his feet to keep the crowd hot, while Hall taunts Booker T by stomping his feet before giving him the shaking hands taunt!
The taunt is enough distraction for Stevie Ray to make a comeback! Stevie with rights and lefts to Hall, and then a back elbow to Nash which knocks him off the apron and to the floor…
HOT TAG TO BOOKER T!!!
Booker T is on fire as he drills Hall with a clothesline, and then The Harlem Sidekick, followed by the spinaroonie!!!
Booker T and Steive Ray show why they also are championship material as they begin to cut the ring in half on Scott Hall. Booker tags Stevie back in as Stevie hits a delayed suplex on Hall! Stevie goes for the cover but Nash rushes in to break up the attempt…
Which brings in Booker T to even up the odds! Booker takes control of Nash as he tosses him into the corner. Stevie Ray tosses Hall into the corner, and the brothers whip The Outsiders from opposite corners…
AND THEY COLLIDE IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!!
Stevie with the cover on Hall…
1…2…NOOO!!
Hall kicks out. Stevie slams the mat in frustration. Nash gets up and grabs Stevie Ray by the head. Booker T sees this and goes for the Harlem Sidekick on Nash…
KEVIN NASH DUCKS OUT OF THE WAY…
AND BOOKER T DRILLS HIS OWN BROTHER, STEVIE RAY, IN THE FACE WITH A HARLEM SIDEKICK!!!
Booker T looks down at his fallen brethren for a split second before…
HE IS CAUGHT WITH A BIG BOOT FROM KEVIN NASH!!!
Scott Hall then lifts Stevie Ray up…
OUTSIDERS EDGE!!!
Hall with the cover while Nash patrols for Booker T…
1…2…3!!!
Winners AND STILL WCW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS- The Outsiders
The Outsiders grab their titles and head up the ramp, and our announcers are impressed that they actually picked up
A CLEAN WIN for once!
Back inside the ring, Booker T tries to help Stevie Ray back to his feet, but Stevie tosses Booker aside. Stevie knows it was an accident, but is still pissed off at his brother, to the point where
HE STORMS OFF without Booker T!
Booker tries to catch up to his brother but to no avail, Stevie doesn’t want to hear anything right now! Harlem Heat is right back where they were a week ago- with a giant wedge between the two brothers!!
Back at the
EXECUTIVE CARD GAME, Disco is losing big. We can tell just by the look on his face and by the fact that he keeps holding his head and wincing with each card he draws.
“Disco, I think it’s time you bow out. You’re into us for THREE boxes of ziti!”
Disco shakes his head as he plays his hand. He pushes the remaining poker chips he has to the center of the table…
“I’m all in…”
Barry Darsow and Villano V show their cards, and Villano V has won the hand with a FULL HOUSE!!
“Disco, you had a 2-9 offsuit, what the hell were you thinking?”
Tony Marinara says as he smacks the back of Disco’s head.
“Just one more box of ziti, I can feel the full tilt to my side. I’m right there…”
SUDDENLY…
Just as Disco gets another round of chips, the door is kicked in.
INTERNAL SERVICES- VK Stock, The Wall and Miss Hancock emerge into the room.
“Fellas, I am officially canceling this card game. It is NOT sanctioned by the Ohio Gaming Commission. Consider everything in his room seized and now property of the United States.”
VK Stock says as Miss Hancock begins to jot something down on her clipboard.
“OOOO the feds! What a surprise! C’mon, come sit down and get in on this game. We know you’re just as crooked as us!”
Big Vito shouts, but before he can get another word out…
THE WALL FLIPS THE POKER TABLE OVER!!!
Both Villanos go flying to the ground, as Barry Darsow just escapes harm and hits the deck. Disco sits there in his chair, observing everything…
Tony Marinara makes a run at The Wall…
BUT THE WALL PICKS MARINARA UP AND TOSSES HIM…THROUGH THE WALL!!!!
The Wall then grabs Vito around his throat, lifts him up…
AND CHOKESLAMS HIM ON TOP OF THE FALLEN POKER TABLE!!!
Barry Darsow just so happens to be wearing a referee’s shirt, and makes the count as The Wall places his foot on top of Big Vito!
NEW HARDCORE CHAMPION- THE WALL!!
Internal Services seizes all of the money and now the Hardcore title, while Disco continues to sit in his chair, gleefully looking over at VK Stock.
“So, does this mean I owe anything?”
VK Stock looks back at Disco and points his finger at him…
“We’re onto you, Mr. Inferno. Tread lightly. We have The Outfit in the crosshairs of a much bigger case. Racketeering, blackmail, extortion. I’d advise you to choose your friends wisely.”
Disco makes the sign of the cross, knowing he just got out of a big debt owed to The Outfit. For now, The Wall is the NEW Hardcore Champion, and Internal Services are hot on the trail in WCW to make sure everyone runs a tight ship!!
We head to the locker room where
Curt Hennig is holding court with
David Flair, Crowbar and Daffney. He is politicking his way through Ric Flair’s unhinged son, plus his two unhinged friends. Hennig promises them all a big spot in his cabinet, and even possibly a shot at some gold. Flair, Crowbar and Daffney all smile at the empty words Curt Hennig spills out of his mouth- he is a classic politician- promise everything and deliver nothing!!
Mene Gene is standing by with United States Champion Jeff Jarrett! Jarrett, as cocky as ever, promises a BIG WIN tonight over Chris Benoit, reassuring the world that his “iron-clad” plan is ready and in place. He then begins to gloat about his big salary, talking about the state-of-the-art in-ground pool he is currently putting in at his beach house in Boca Raton.
And that pool money is just what he made for entering the arena on last week’s Thunder taping- SLAP NUTS!
The cage is lowered as the fans are on the edge of their set-
IT’S CAGE MATCH TIME!!
Chris Benoit is out first to a big pop from the crowd. Benoit looks as intent as ever as he heads into the cage. Our announcers talk about how Benoit can easily dispatch Jarrett, but Jarrett always finds a way to squeak out victories.
Jeff Jarrett is out next, wielding his guitar through the air. He hops into the cage and climbs to the top of it, posing with his guitar while sparklers shoot out of the four corners of the cage!
Match 7-United States Championship- Cage Match
©Jeff Jarrett vs. Chris Benoit
Both men test each other out early, as they try to find their way around the cage. It isn’t long before Benoit is done testing out his dimensions, and begins a flurry of offense on Jarrett! Benoit with suplexes, clotheslines, body drops, and everything else in between!
Benoit picks up Jarrett…
AND TOSSES HIM FACE FIRST INTO THE CAGE!!
Benoit holds Jarrett in between the ropes and the cage…
AND GRATES JARRETT’S FACE ACROSS THE STEEL CAGE!!
By the time Jarrett lands on the mat, his blonde hair is covered in blood! Benoit continues his attack with stomps and kicks on Jarrett in the corner. Jarrett responds with a blatant low-blow to Benoit, but since we are in a Cage, a low blow isn’t going to stop this match!
The low blow buys Jarrett some time to get to his feet. He looks over at the fallen Benoit and then begins to scale the cage. Jarrett wants to get out of here as fast as he can…but
NOT SO FAST!
Chris Benoit hops up to the top turnbuckle, bringing Jarrett back down onto it with him. Jarrett tries to elbow his way out of it, but Benoit has his arms tightly locked around Jarrett. Benoit then rears back
AND HEADBUTTS JARRETT!! The vicious headbutt knocks Jarrett a bit loopy, which is enough opening for Benoit to rear back…
TOP ROPE GERMAN SUPLEX TO JEFF JARRETT!!!
Benoit takes his time getting up, as the high-risk move also took a lot out of him. Benoit knows he can easily win by escaping at this point, but wants to inflict as much damage on Jarrett as he can. Benoit goes to pick Jarrett up…
JEFF JARRETT WITH A THUMB TO THE EYES OF CHRIS BENOIT!!!
Jarrett takes control with a DDT. He goes for a cover but Benoit kicks out. Jarrett then tosses Benoit head-first into the cage, busting Benoit open in the process! Jarrett has Benoit down and out, and begins to walk towards the cage door…but Benoit grabs a hold of his foot. Jarrett stomps down on Benoit’s head, but stumbles towards the ropes. He then decides to scale the cage once more, looking to escape!
Chris Benoit is back up to his feet and once again follows Jarrett up the cage. The two men now duke it out on the ropes. The ropes shake as both men’s knees wobble with each punch thrown. Benoit goes for a punch but before he can Jarrett with another thumb to the eye! Jarrett places on hand on the cage and wraps his arm around Benoit’s neck…
RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP OFF THE CAGE BY JEFF JARRETT!!!
By this point, Jarrett knows he needs to keep Benoit down before exiting the cage, and waits for Benoit to get back to his feet.
JEFF JARRETT GOES FOR THE STROKE ON BENOIT…
BUT BENOIT REVERSES IT INTO A CRIPPLER CROSSFACE!!!
Jarrett screams in agony as Benoit has his finishing hold locked in tightly! Jarrett reaches out and by a Hail Mary, is able to place a finger on the bottom rope, forcing Benoit to break the hold. Benoit looks to capitalize on Jeff Jarrett as he lifts him up…
HITTING THREE GERMAN SUPLEXES IN SUCCESSION!!!
Benoit is not done, as he begins to scale the cage, but by his body language, he isn’t looking to escape. No, instead, Benoit makes it all the way to the top of the cage, before he looks back down at Jarrett. Benoit steadies himself on the top…
AND LEAPS OFF…
WITH A FUCKING FLYING HEADBUTT OFF THE TOP OF THE CAGE ONTO JEFF JARRETT!!!!
A thousand flashes go off simultaneously from cameras in the crowd as Benoit hits a ridiculous spot on Jarrett!!
The move takes just as much out of Benoit as it does Jarrett. Jarrett, subconsciously rolls underneath the ropes so Benoit cannot pin him! Benoit begins to army crawl towards the door, knowing this is moment to capitalize. Benoit gets to the door, the referee unlocks the door, and Benoit slowly begins to crawl head first out of the cage…
WHACK!!!
RON AND DON HARRIS EMERGE FROM NOWHERE AND SLAM THE CAGE DOOR RIGHT ON CHRIS BENOIT’S HEAD!!!
Benoit’s hands are touching the floor, but not his feet! He lies there motionless as Jarrett looks up, smiling out at THE HARRIS BROTHERS who must have been Jarrett’s “iron-clad” plan this entire time!! Jarrett crawls over the motionless Benoit, as both Ron and Don help Jarrett out the cage door…
JEFF JARRETT’S FEET TOUCH THE FLOOR!!
Winner AND STILL UNITED STATES CHAMPION- Jeff Jarrett
The Harris Brothers hand Jeff Jarrett his US title as they assist him to his feet. Jarrett, bloodied face and all, looks into the camera…
“I told you all I had an iron-clad plan. It was in the form of these two shit-kickers- The Harris Brothers! Two men who were CHOSEN by me! Ha-Ha!”
Jarrett limps up the ramp, still with the assistance of The Harris Brothers, as we pan back to Benoit who is being checked on by a team of medics at the ringside area.
Our announcers talk about how Benoit virtually won the match, had it not been for The Harris Brothers!
However, Jeff Jarrett walks out of Souled Out with the US title still in-tact!
We head to the back where Mene Gene is standing by with Ric Flair and Arn Anderson. Ric Flair gives us a
“MEAN…WOOO!...GENE!” before telling the world that once he is WCW President, things will change for the better. He goes on to say that Bill Clinton ain’t got nothing on The Nature Boy, baby!
WOOO!
Curt Hennig is our first to a loud rung of boos. Hennig stops and attempts to shake the hands of everyone at ringside, but not many people shake his hand! Tony Schiavone plays up Hennig politicking David Flair, saying that nobody knows their father better than his own son. Heenan argues that point, saying that he’s been around the Flair family, and they’re as dysfunctional as they come…
Ric Flair is out next to a MASSIVE ovation from the crowd! Flanked by Arn Anderson, “The Nature Boy” struts his way down to the ring. He looks more serious than usual, as he knows he does NOT want to be Curt Hennig’s errand boy if he loses!
MATCH 8- For the WCW Presidency
Ric Flair vs. Curt Hennig
Before we begin, Hennig requests a mic.
“I’m petitioning for Arn Anderson to be forcefully removed from ringside. This man is a threat to this match, and therefore is a threat to our democracy and needs to be escorted to the back IMMEDIATLEY!!”
However, the referee disagrees and tells Arn Anderson to
STAY!!
Hennig gets pissed but it was all a ploy. While Flair is eating this up with the fans, Hennig suckers Flair and chop blocks him from behind!!
Hennig takes advantage early on, targeting Flair’s knee. After knee strikes and a leg bar, Hennig whips Flair into the corner where Flair goes over the turnbuckles and to the floor!
As the action spills to the outside, Hennig stops and continues attempting to shake people’s hands in the front row! Hennig then turns his attention back to Flair…
WHO DRILLS HENNIG ACROSS THE HEAD WITH THE RING BELL!!!
Flair then tosses Hennig hard into the guard rail! Hennig, with a history of having a bad back, holds it in pain as Flair stomps on it for good measure!
Flair tosses Hennig back inside the ring and begins to work over the back, before shifting his focus to Hennig’s legs, softening them up for the Figure Four! Flair goes for the Figure Four…
BUT HENNIG WITH A SMALL PACKAGE!!!
1…..2…NO!!
Flair kicks out. Hennig tries to garner some offense but Flair chop blocks his knee, sending him back down to the mat! Flair then has Hennig right where he wants him…
FIGURE FOUR LEG LOCK!!!
Hennig writhes in pain as Flair has it locked in tightly. Hennig slowly begins to move his body over…
AND REVERSES THE FIGURE FOUR!!!
Flair now screams in pain as Hennig nods, hoping this is the end…
BUT IT’S NOT! FLAIR REVERSES THE REVERSAL!!!
Hennig is back writhing in pain…
WHEN FLAIR GETS JUMPED ON BY DAVID FLAIR!!!
David Flair, Crowbar and Daffney emerge from God knows where and begin to interfere! The referee can’t call for the bell because
WE NEED A WCW PRESIDENT, and not via DQ!
Arn hits the ring and lays out his Godson David Flair with a
HUGE SPINEBUSTER!! Crowbar then wields a crowbar at Arn Anderson who catches it, kicks Crowbar in the gut…
ARN ANDERSON HITS CROWBAR…WITH…A CROWBAR!!!
Arn then exits the ring, wanting this one to end fair and square. As he does, Daffney
JUMPS ON ARN’S BACK!! Arn tries his best to wiggle Daffney off of him…
HENNIG DECKS ARN IN THE HEAD WITH THE CROWBAR!!!
Daffney flies off, right into the arms of Crowbar, while Arn hits the deck and falls to the floor!
Hennig then picks back up the crowbar
(the weapon, not the wrestler)…
AND DRILLS RIC FLAIR ACROSS THE BACK!!!
Hennig tosses the crowbar aside and taunts Flair, telling him he’s gonna be his errand boy for the rest of eternity…
WHEN SUDDENLY…
DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE HOPS INTO OUR SCREEN…
DIAMOND CUTTER TO CURT HENNIG FROM LEFT FUCKING FIELD!!!
DDP? What’s he doing out here? He HATES Ric Flair!!! Nonetheless, DDP places Flair over the motionless Curt Hennig…
1…2…3!!!!
Winner AND NEW WCW PRESIDENT- Ric Flair
RIC FLAIR IS OUR NEW PRESIDENT! The crowd erupts in excitement, mostly because they love Ric Flair, but also because Curt Hennig is now Ric Flair’s errand boy for as long as he is WCW President!!
DDP looks down at Ric Flair and shouts
“YOU OWE ME!” before exiting the ring. Arn hops in and helps Flair to his feet, who slowly realizes he is now the WCW President! The two men head up the ramp as Flair lets out a couple WOOO’s on his way up.
Back in the ring, a defeated Curt Hennig comes to the realization that he will have to be Ric Flair’s bitch for the foreseeable future!
Our announcers speculate as to why DDP would help Ric Flair, considering their checkered past. Regardless of why he helped Ric Flair win, he now holds one over the WCW President with the assist of a lifetime!
We head to the back where Mene Gene is catching up with Chris Kanyon. Kanyon has no women around him, no fanfare, no stupid hat and glasses. Just the man, Chris Kanyon, and his luggage. Kanyon tells Mene Gene that
Vampiro humbled him tonight, and he’s gonna go home and take a long look in the mirror. Something has to change;
he needs to re-evaluate his life. Kanyon goes on to say that from this point on,
he will become a changed man and try to live his life in a positive way…
The WCW.COM Chat Room is up and running! Off to the side of the Souled Out stage, a host of wrestlers are all a long table typing away. Evan Karagias happens to be sitting next to Torrie Wilson, and begins to flirt with her. This draws the ire of Billy Kidman, who confronts Karagias. Karagias must say something to piss Kidman off, as he
DECKS KARAGIAS ACROSS THE FACE!!
Chaos ensues as Konnan and Rey Mysterio get into it with Shannon Moore and Shane Helms. All of this chaos is going on, while La Parka, the
NEW Cruiserweight Champion, continues to type away in the
WCW.COM CHAT ROOM!
We see a brief video package of
Tank Abbott destroying everything and everyone in his path!
Tank Abbott enters the arena and the crowd begins to boo! The legitimate tough guy doesn’t care, as he heads straight for the ring! Our announcers speculate as to who will answer this challenge, but none of them have any idea…
Match 9- Tank Abbott’s Open Challenge
Tank Abbott vs. ???
Tank Abbott grabs the mic and attempts to speak over the boos…
“Who’s ready to get their ass kicked?!?!?”
Crickets…nothing…nobody answers….Abbott stands in the ring, confident nobody will step up to him…
“That’s what I thought! Everybody in the back is too scared to step inside the ring with me! And for good reason, too. So, tomorrow morning, I’m marching right into Ric Flair’s office and DEMANDING…”
Abbott is cut off by some new music, music none of us have ever heard before…
The crowd is on their feet, excited as hell, because….
IT’S KEN FUCKING SHAMROCK!!!
Ken Shamrock is here in WCW!!!
Ken Shamrock makes a bee-line to the ring, where he stands nose-to-nose with Tank Abbott. Abbott drops the mic…
SHAMROCK HEADBUTTS ABBOTT!!!
Abbott hits the deck, where Shamrock is waiting with some ground and pound! Shamrock then grabs a hold of Abbott’s leg…
SHAMROCK PUTS TANK ABBOTT IN A LEG BAR!!!
If Abbott doesn’t submit, he will break his leg in half!!!
ABBOTT SUBMITS!!!!
Winner- Ken Shamrock
Tank Abbott quickly retreats up the ramp, heading for safety. Inside the ring, Ken Shamrock is
UNHINGED and plays into the crowd’s warm welcome to WCW!!
Our announcers say Ken Shamrock is here in WCW, and just made the most feared man in the locker room tap out in under 30 seconds! So, what does that make Ken Shamrock?
IT MAKES HIM KEN FUCKING SHAMROCK, THE NEWEST MOST FEARED MAN IN WCW!!!
Shamrock slaps the fans hand around ringside as he points up to Abbott, telling him he isn’t finished with him!!
In the back,
Ric Flair has turned his private locker room into a night club! While “
Celebration” by Kool and the Gang plays, Flair pops bottles surrounded by the most beautiful girls he could find in Cinci tonight. Curt Hennig, limping around, is forced to pour drinks for everyone in the room. Arn Anderson is still on guard, with an ice pack on his head from getting hit with a crowbar earlier on.
Suddenly, David Flair, Crowbar and Daffney enter the party. David goes up to his father and shakes his hand, telling him he is proud of him for becoming WCW President again. Arn has his guard up but Crowbar doesn’t want to fight. After the strange interaction, DDP is in line behind the trio. DDP walks up to Flair and makes it known that Flair owes him. Flair agrees and says he will figure it all out in the morning. But for now, he is in party mode!
A host of other wrestlers have formed a line outside the party, looking to air their grievances. Flair tells Hennig to disperse the crowd of wrestlers. Hennig mumbles underneath his breath but does as he is told, as he signed an agreement that he would be Ric Flair’s “Chief of Staff” for as long as Flair is WCW President. The wrestlers all boo Hennig who forces them to leave.
(Goldberg, working snug on inanimate objects)
After we see Goldberg violating a
SURGE vending machine, our announcers talk about what a night we have had thus far, and there is more action tomorrow night! They hype up
STING’S BIG ANNOUNCEMENT tomorrow night on Monday Nitro! They then begin to focus on our main event of the evening-
Bret Hart puts his WCW title on the line against THE MILLENNIUM MAN- Sid Vicious!
Mene Gene is ready to conduct his last interview of the night, with Sid Vicious. Sid says he’s been waiting to get his hands on the WCW title since he returned last summer. Tonight, it doesn’t matter how many members of The Founding Fathers tries to interfere-he isn’t leaving Souled Out until he pins Bret Hart and wins the WCW Championship!
Sid Vicious’ music hits as the fans
ERUPT from their seats. The Millennium Man fist bumps a few lucky fans on his way down to the ring. He poses with his arms up in the air as sparkling fireworks set off behind him. Sid looks as locked in as he’s ever been for this one!
Bret Hart is out next to a loud reaction. Although the reigning WCW Champion has aligned with The Founding Fathers, he is respected enough to garner some cheers. Hart, however, doesn’t appreciate the cheers as he comes out. He flaunts the richest prize in the business- the WCW Championship- for everyone to see, especially Sid Vicious.
Hart hops into the ring and holds the title high in the air, while Sid looks on, grabbing his wrists, getting ready to destroy his opponent.
Match 10- Main Event- WCW Championship
©Bret Hart vs. Sid Vicious
After Michael Buffer gives us a great introduction and doesn’t refer to Bret as
“Bret Clark” the bell rings and we are under way for our main event of the evening!
Sid comes out swinging for the fences, forcing Bret Hart to hit the deck and retreat to the outside. Hart slides back inside the ring, attempts a few punches, and when he realizes Sid is more fired up than usual tonight, Hart once again slides out of the ring.
The crowd begins to boo Hart who could care less. His sole focus right now is surviving The Millennium Man and retaining his World title. Hart slides back in, and strategically holds onto the ropes before kicking Sid. When Sid goes to retaliate, Hart once again slides underneath the ropes and to the outside. Sid has had enough and climbs out of the ring, looking to get his hands on Hart. Hart blocks a punch from Sid before stepping on his foot, which stuns the big man for a split second. This allows Hart to slide back inside the ring.
Sid follows suit and when he does, Hart is waiting with a kick to the head. Sid shrugs it off, but Bret is back on the offensive with a chop block to Sid’s knee. The big man is down on one knee. Hart flies off the ropes and goes for a bulldog, but Sid catches him in mid-air!!
Sid gets back to both feet…
SID DUMPS BRET HART OUT OF THE RING, LANDING HART VERY HARD ON THE FLOOR!!
Sid exits the ring slowly, as he is now favoring his right knee. As he takes his time getting to the outside, Bret has gathered himself, waits for Sid…
BRET HART RAMS A STEEL CHAIR RIGHT INTO SID’S LEG!!!
Sid is down on the ringside floor as Hart continuously rams the chair right into Sid’s knee! Bret then lifts the big man up and slides him back on the ring apron. He elbows him in the head for good measure, before positioning him underneath the bottom rope and the ring post. Bret crosses Sid’s legs around the post…
FIGURE FOUR WITH SID’S LEGS LOCKED INSIDE THE RING POST!!
Sid’s legs are just too big, and Hart never fully locks it in. Eventually, Hart is forced to let go of the devastating submission move. Sid knows this, and reaches his long arms out, grabbing Bret by the hair…
SID SMASHES BRET FACE FIRST INTO THE RING POST!!
Sid shakes the feeling back into his legs as he gingerly walks over towards the commentary table. He looks at all three men, and the look is enough to send them running. Sid clears the monitors off of the table before stomping on the fallen WCW Champion for good measure.
The crowd is on their feet, roaring with excitement as Sid nods his head in approval, everybody knows what’s coming next! Sid puts Hart in between his legs, easily hoists him up…
POWERBOMB TO BRET HART THROUGH THE COMMENTARY TABLE!!!!
The crowd goes
CRAZY for the move as Sid soaks in the energy from them! Sid picks Bret up and slides him into the ring. Bret, being the crafty veteran, one of the best in the business, knows he is outmatched right now so does the only thing he can do- he grabs a hold of Sid…
AND FALLS BACK RIGHT INTO THE REFEREE!!
The referee falls through the middle rope and all the way out of the ring to the floor. Sid holds his knee in pain as Bret looks up at the entrance ramp, waving on the rest of The Founding Fathers!!
Bret waits for what seems like an eternity, and his buddies never show up!
We quickly cut to a feed of the backstage area, where Goldberg, Booker T, The Filthy Animals and Ken Shamrock are all beating down on Hall, Nash and Luger! Led by Goldberg, who has followed through on his promise to Sid to not let The Founding Fathers get involved, they have neutralized The Founding Fathers!!
Bret can’t wait any longer as he turns around…
AND EATS SID’S SIZE 20 FOOT WITH A HUGE BIG BOOT!!!!
Sid calls for the end as the crowd can feel it. Sid lifts Bret up once more…
ANOTHER DEVASTATING POWERBOMB BY SID TO BRET HART!!!
The referee still hasn’t budged from the ringside area. Sid climbs out of the ring, lifts the referee up by one arm, and flings him back underneath the ropes. Sid pokes at the referee, shoves him, does everything he possibly can-
WAKE THE FUCK UP MICKEY JAY!! But referee Mickey Jay is still unconscious, he just had a 300 pound monster fall on him, knocking him out of the ring!
Sid is tired of reviving the referee, and decides to lift the motionless Bret Hart up once more. As Sid has Hart between his legs, looking for his
THIRD POWERBOMB of the match…
A MAN DRESSED IN ALL BLACK WITH A BLACK MASK, WIELDING A LEAD PIPE HOPS THE GUARD RAIL…
HE ENTERS THE RING, WINDS BACK…
AND DRILLS SID VICIOUS ACROSS THE BACK OF HIS HEAD WITH THE LEAD PIPE!!!
The man then stands over the fallen Sid Vicious and takes his mask off…
IT’S SCOTT STEINER!! BIG POPPA PUMP! WHY IS HE GETTING INVOLVED IN THIS MATCH?!?!?!?
Scott Steiner’s job is finished, as he leaves the ring. Surprisingly enough, he doesn’t seem to be on Bret Hart’s side because he stomps on Bret before leaving, and doesn’t drape him over Sid. However, Bret is conscious enough to drape his arm over the unconscious monster Sid Vicious…all while Mickey Jay
FINALLY wakes up!
1………………2…………….3!!!
Winner AND STILL WCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION- Bret Hart
Hart’s music hits as the timekeeper slides him his belt. He clutches it tightly against his chest, knowing full well he just avoided a major loss. He looks out at Scott Steiner, who heads up the entrance ramp. Hart looks puzzled as to why Big Poppa Pump got involved, but nevertheless, Hart has slayed the giant and retains his title!
Hart uses the ropes as leverage to get to his feet where he holds his title up high in the air.
The final scene from Souled Out shows Bret Hart on the top turnbuckle, posing with his title while the fans pelt the ring with garbage. Hart may still be on top of the WCW, but his new friends failed miserably in helping him retain- they couldn’t even make it to the ringside area.
Bret also knows that Goldberg is inching closer and closer, and with a new WCW President in Ric Flair, a re-match with Goldberg is purely imminent at this point. Bret looks around, and doesn’t like the feeling of being alone in the ring- how much does he actually trust his new friends after Souled Out?
