00:07:24information you need to share with these fine people well you know something brother is Hollywood
00:07:30Hogan flew into downtown Atlanta in his custom-made NWO Learjet there were thousands of NWO whites to roll out
00:07:42the black and white carpet for Hollywood to worship the ground I walk on to shine my world heavyweight title
00:07:51and to kiss my feet for all you NWO whites that believe Hollywood will never let you down
00:08:00now brother business at hand
00:08:05I got some real real good news for you and I got some real real bad news for you
00:08:22first off NWO whites the good news is we're on our final week the final countdown to bash at
00:08:32the beach I just got off the Hollywood cell phone with Rodzilla the battle plan is intact Malone DDP
00:08:43and bash at the beach they shall swim with the fishes Rodzilla told Hollywood DDP this will be your
00:08:53last match Rodzilla told Hollywood that Karl Malone after bash at the beach will never ever play
00:09:03basketball again that's the good news now for the real real bad news to those one or two Goldberg fans
00:09:19out there with speaker phones the real bad news goes like this this match ain't gonna happen brother
00:09:34number one Goldberg ain't nobody he's beat a bunch of jabonis out here he's not in the same league as
00:09:44Hollywood and the WCW's disrespect of not calling Hollywood or Mr. Bischoff of not putting the right
00:09:53amount of money up on the line this match ain't gonna happen but for you one or two Goldberg fans
00:10:01out here that wanna scream Goldberg to the high heavens just to show you that I'm a fair man
00:10:10I'm gonna give you your chance to yell your stupid lungs out I got a brother coming in a few minutes
00:10:17an NWO black and white brother who you haven't seen for a long time he called Hollywood up when
00:10:24he heard about this match and he said Hollywood I know you're focused on bash at the beach it would be
00:10:30my pleasure to get this jabroni Goldberg out of your way so to show everybody here that I'm a fair man
00:10:37I'm bringing in an NWO brother he's gonna give Goldberg his first loss tonight and you people can scream to the high heavens
00:10:48oh by the way just in case there's a lightning bolt in the center of the ring or Goldberg gets
00:11:01real lucky and gets by this NWO brother then and only then will I grace you with my presence
00:11:11and my wrestling boots and kill Goldberg Hollywood style right in the center of the ring
00:11:17the people out here who love Hollywood will eat up those one or two Goldberg fans because when
00:11:42you're with Hollywood when you're with a black and white you're with Hollywood for life brother
00:11:49and all I got to say Goldberg is I feel sorry when the other brother from the NWO embarrasses you
00:11:57out here tonight because the black and white NWO is just too sweet
00:12:05thank you all very much we love each and every one of you except for you you fight me
00:12:16so you hear it from Hollywood Hogan who said no he would not put the title up against Goldberg
00:12:22but Goldberg had to face one of his brothers of the black and white NWO and if he won that match then
00:12:29yeah he would go in the ring against him can the world champion dictate like this
00:12:39hey Hogan history started in 1985 in Madison Square Garden let me tell you this ain't Madison Square Garden and it ain't 1985

00:15:49the police wouldn't catch me either they can't catch me now that's what i was getting ready to say they
00:15:54haven't yet dean malenko makes his way to the ring the iceman but uh i guess when you use the term
00:16:02ice man it's really not apropos for dean malenko right now well it makes him sound colder than he
00:16:07is he's not ice he's basically focused man he is he is so into what he does it it makes dean malenko
00:16:14a wrestling machine and talk about another machine more of an aerial version booker t a phenomenal athlete
00:16:21this man defies gravity while malenko likes it on the mat contradictory in styles we'll see who winds up
00:16:29with the best results this is going to be a good one also going to be interesting to see dean malenko
00:16:34who's used to being in the ring with the cruiserweights step it up a notch facing the world's
00:16:40television champion booker t and you know the wcw executive committee they've been quite busy this
00:16:46afternoon not only is this match between malenko and booker t for the world's tv title but we also
00:16:52understand that upcoming this sunday bash at the beach on pay-per-view the bout between booker t and
00:16:59bret the hitman hart that also will be for the world's tv title and of course booker t has to get
00:17:04by malenko in order to put that tv title on the line this sunday against the hitman bell sounds here we go
00:17:11the match for the television belt want to let you know once again if you just joined us you may have
00:17:15heard the comments from hollywood hogan who said hey i did not agree to put the belt against goldberg
00:17:21here tonight but if goldberg can beat my brother from the nwo later on in this program then i'll get
00:17:27in the ring against him well what brother is he talking about you know there's so many of them it's
00:17:33really difficult and would be wrong to speculate but it's someone from nwo black and white that
00:17:39apparently goldberg's got to get in the ring against here tonight before he can get his shot
00:17:44against hollywood hogan here tonight that sounds more like a cop out from the nwo nice move there
00:17:50malenko trying to ground booker t yeah sounded to me like it was the nwo black and white just
00:17:55backpedaling we know how powerful bischoff and hogan are but are they dictating now to the executive
00:18:01committee i don't know if that's the case but if you look at it for what it is obviously they want
00:18:07goldberg to have to go in the ring once tonight before he gets the ultimate shot the world title later
00:18:13on one cam only that time and that's what everyone has come to see what they've been waiting for here
00:18:19tonight well i tell you the heavyweight champion of the world does have a lot of political stroke and
00:18:26hogan he's using it to his advantage again hogan is a mountain of experience he knows what he's doing
00:18:33he's been in there with the best for years this is going to be uh interesting whoa malenko behind him
00:18:41anyway standing switch good float around that time and ability back suplex by booker t raising the rope
00:18:48here at the georgia dog and here he goes at the top but malenko trying to get back to his feet they're up
00:18:56and booker t is down hard booker t attempted the missile drop kick malenko able to avoid it
00:19:03he's going for the cloverleaf right now small package one two got a two count
00:19:10of course this spectacular crowd we have for you tonight the beginning of a big week for wcw
00:19:17with the bash of the beach coming up sunday from san diego and wednesday night we'll be in birmingham
00:19:22for thunder live on tbs as well up on top
00:19:28man what a snap booker t just leveled malenko he was doing well with his movement but he
00:19:35dove into the arms of a big strong man couldn't take booker t down with the momentum bam right in the mouth
00:19:41and tony we do have a special announcement about the thunder upcoming this wednesday on tbs
00:19:47we understand that saturn and canyon are going to join forces they have just one thing in common
00:19:52that being their hatred for the flock they will face raven and horace this wednesday night 8.05
00:19:59on tbs over the cap up and go all the way down to the floor to the apron
00:20:06and billy settlement hey what's this about hey someone's got a microphone who's saying hey hey
00:20:12oh that's all
00:20:18i'm sick and tired of you following me and running for me each and every week so tonight
00:20:29tonight come on out here and face me
00:20:33the time has come for us to settle this once and for all daddy oh so come on down come on down here
00:20:43oh axe kick in the back of the head one two three
00:20:47pretty apparent what went down right there malenko looking out towards jericho did not see the axe
00:20:59kick coming and then caught him in the back of the head and booker t retains the tv belt yeah i'm sure
00:21:04not the way booker t wanted to but obviously jericho did pull off a distraction malingo looked the other
00:21:10way and you cannot take your eyes off booker and the fans are pumped up they are ready to go
00:21:18but no more ready than a man as we take a look back in the locker room area right now the contender
00:21:24the u.s champ a man that these fans know very well as you're looking live they erupt inside the georgia doll
00:21:31goldberg prepares for apparently two matches in his best overcome world champ tonight
00:21:42dennis i'm sorry i mean rob zilla okay whatever what happened i'm so disappointed
00:21:51ddp and myself drove all the way from utah and you didn't show it's all right bash at the beach you'll
00:21:58have to show the one and only mailman carl malone who we understand is here tonight as well as you look
00:22:06down at this jam-packed crowd in a night where history could be made here on wcw monday nitro we're
00:22:15back to wrestling action and the familiar music brings in a man who now calls himself canyon
00:22:22who you mentioned earlier mike is going to be at the thunder coming up wednesday on tvs a man who has
00:22:29made it his mission to eliminate raven raven has gotten himself a lot of enemies as of late boy he
00:22:36sure has and canyon is going to get that opportunity to eliminate raven right here and right now the
00:22:42master of disguise canyon it's been a long-running rivalry that he has had with raven and the flock
00:22:48it goes back several months if you remember it started off with the then mortis wanting acceptance
00:22:54by the flock to join this man's group raven deemed him not acceptable to join the flock and ever since
00:23:01then he's been living with canyon in his face you know it's amazing all through history every leader
00:23:09of a group every dictator always came tumbling down from the turmoil and the resentment and the jealousy
00:23:19within and raven just was loading and canyon wasting no time trying to dispose of raven as the fisticuffs
00:23:29began before they get in the ring and here we go nick patrick crawls into the match is underway
00:23:37great counter move by canyon one two couldn't hold him down a little too early but canyon's
00:23:43getting aggressive that's what i'm talking about you've got to go go go and he is aggressive in
00:23:49ways like we've never seen before the innovator of so many new offensive moves makes it next to
00:23:54impossible for raven to prepare for him raven counters a sleeper with a sleeper of his own out of
00:23:59the ropes raven with the upper hand here you know we saw moments ago fans you witness as we did oh my
00:24:06goodness watch out both men wiped out over the top all the way to the floor we witness a goldberg
00:24:13preparing for his battle against hollywood hogan and i mean the man is getting ready early he arrived
00:24:18in the arena very very early today to try to go into his locker room to try to focus on the task at
00:24:25hand and try to not get here late when the fans are starting to show up it was a good move and
00:24:30goldberg is prepared now apparently to wrestle twice here tonight and if he wins match one against a
00:24:37member of the new world order black and white he will face hollywood hogan so says hogan earlier on
00:24:42in this program well we certainly hope that we get to see goldberg wrestle twice tonight has to be a big
00:24:47disadvantage for goldberg for the past several days he's been focusing his strategy
00:24:52on hollywood hogan and now he finds out just at the start of nitro that he's going to have to face
00:24:57another member of nwo hollywood he's going to have to defeat him before he gets that world's title shot
00:25:03obviously hogan's throwing in a ringer question is who is the ringer boy you look at the roster of nwo hollywood
00:25:11up and down it's really some of the biggest names toughest men in our sport pick up he dropped him on the chair
00:25:21well he wanted raven's rules he got it he flapjacked him out of the fireman's carry face first into the
00:25:28steel here comes the cover one two and that's all he had to count that time amazingly enough raven kicked out of
00:25:36that after landing belly first on the chair that canyon throws on him
00:25:43well it stays on raven right right on his head there larry it's staying on and canyon he can do
00:25:48anything look where he is load he's trying to sneak up on him and caught him well he snuck up on him
00:25:54you're not kidding and that turns this match completely around
00:25:57now loading jumping up and down this enables raven to get back up sit the chair up oh that could
00:26:08spell trouble here for canyon now the chair is in a position where it appears
00:26:14yeah we're trying to use it here larry this isn't right
00:26:19suplexed him on the chair incredible
00:26:22raven loves to use that steel chair as a weapon here comes saturn saturn doesn't like what he saw
00:26:31he has seen enough referee's going to call for bell and now saturn taking up both lody
00:26:39the belly to belly overhead for lody and now driving those big forearm smashes
00:26:44wait a minute that's his tag partner on thunder he didn't know who it was you're right larry he didn't
00:26:50realize who that was he's just picking up bodies and throwing them everywhere again it's the enemy
00:26:55within that got raven he reaches under the ring for a table
00:27:04he's going to take anything that he can find he's got a table looking for something else possibly
00:27:08under there i don't know he's still looking and now the table comes out he sets the table up
00:27:14i don't know what he has in mind but it can't be anything good not for raven it can't
00:27:24the table is wedged he literally has a table wedged between the apron and the safety rail
00:27:31that's not going anywhere saturn has put raven on the table no but saturn is he's headed to the top
00:27:43oh my oh my you see him pop up off there you're talking about hatred i mean he put his own career
00:27:52on the line his own livelihood his own health and jeopardy oh and now look that was kenyan executing a
00:28:03move on saturn and i don't even think that saturn i don't think kenyan knew it was saturn all right

00:31:55goldberg and hollywood hogan for the world title if goldberg goes through
00:31:59the test from hollywood hogan but let's look ahead now if we can living legend this coming sunday
00:32:03we heard from the mailman carl malone he and diamond dallas page who are here the mailman already said hey
00:32:09he was disappointed that dennis rodman did not show up last monday in tampa but he has to show up in san
00:32:14diego teamed up with hollywood hogan this coming sunday even hollywood mentioned that he had to call
00:32:19rodzilla on the phone let me make something clear the mailman and diamond dallas page have been
00:32:25inseparable they have been training they have been sweating they have been living up to the tradition
00:32:32of professional wrestling and no matter how big your cigar is no matter how big your party is boys
00:32:38tradition always wins out in the end and i would agree with that you can better believe that the
00:32:43mailman and diamond dallas page represent tradition well this sunday bash at the beach concludes the
00:32:48biggest seven-day period in wcw history and you can draw some interesting parallels between these
00:32:54two tag teams that blue collar work ethic of diamond dallas page and carl malone against the masters of the
00:33:00mind games hollywood hulk hogan and rodzilla dennis rodman take a look at this footage
00:33:07we've been following this 18-wheeler since it crossed the state line of florida the mailman carl malone
00:33:13and diamond dallas page make their way here and we understand we uh hollywood hogan eric bischoff are
00:33:18standing
00:33:34if they weren't a bunch of losers they would have showed up like men if they weren't a bunch of
00:33:41losers they were taking the beating that they deserved and a bash at the beach i don't even
00:33:48want you to tune in because hollywood is gonna wipe them both out i can't wait to call rodzilla
00:33:54and let him know just how scared they are those no-show cowards well you know now that the whole
00:34:00world knows the true colors of carl malone i doubt if his family is gonna even let him in the door when
00:34:10he goes back to salt lake city you know something there's a few things in life that make hollywood real
00:34:16sick losers are one people that don't have no guts or another you know something i'm glad they didn't
00:34:24show because if they would have showed up my boys in the back that's right they would have taken them out
00:34:31well hello there the mailman is in the building they're gonna hook it up
00:34:41carl malone and hollywood hogan malone's got
00:34:46the mailman just delivered a clothesline are you ready for bash at the beach i am
00:35:10hey hogan you just been slam dunk punk next week in hotlanta you want to meet us we'll be there

00:35:39coming up next sunday live from san diego the dates circling on your calendar july the 12th
00:35:45pay-per-view bash at the beach perhaps one of the hottest tag team matches of this decade or any
00:35:52other decade and with that let me introduce to you diamond dallas page and the mailman carl malone
00:36:02there is no denying the focus of carl malone and the rigability of carl malone based on the incident
00:36:11we saw at the end of nitro last monday guys well you can see how much diamond dallas has taught malone
00:36:18and what a quick learner he is great athlete all he needs is to know the moves and the science and
00:36:24diamond dallas page has been spending 24 hours a day neither sleet nor rain or snow will stop the
00:36:33mailman in ddp from delivering the lethal blow well we just witnessed the body slam heard around the
00:36:40world and we understand that ddp and malone well they're certainly in intensive training like larry
00:36:47just mentioned and how about this i think malone can well i think he can perform the diamond cutter
00:36:53beware rodman and hogan all right gentlemen if i can point out just for the record these two men
00:36:58have been preparing for who knows how long for the big one against hollywood hogan and dennis rodman

00:38:07gold sugar caught it you see do you know the way i see it hogan has now painted himself into a corner
00:38:20because i don't care who he puts against goldberg in his hometown goldberg's going through him
00:38:31and you know who's next hogan
00:38:33you're next which is gonna make you one bruised up boy
00:38:43listen to it hogan it's gonna make you one bruised up boy

00:39:57ellis rodman rodzilla next sunday on pay-per-view this is cycle tnt we're in atlanta and we're
00:40:04going to be right back i like that rodzilla killer
00:40:21now there's no question that steve mc michael was one of the gridiron greats for the chicago bears
00:40:26one of the great teams of all time and of course at one time a member of the horsemen
00:40:31memories he still has about the elite of wcw i hope now everybody realizes why i chose to become
00:40:39part of an elite group it was almost a parallel in chicago being one of the monsters of the midway
00:40:48winning the championship there the pride look at the horsemen they didn't win championships they
00:40:56went out and took them limousine rides lear jets people lining up by the thousands to get their
00:41:03autographs that is what i like that's what i want to be a part of i'm here to talk to you and everybody
00:41:10else out there about where i've been and where i want to go why i came into the wcw do you understand
00:41:19i got to walk out on that soldier phil grass brother and my voice is quivering talking about it
00:41:23right now the adrenaline is starting to flow again an all pro a super bowl champion the top of that
00:41:30profession baby what steve had he had a great will to win he had a great will to achieve and to be on
00:41:36the field and to play you know i can't explain it there's some people have the warrior heart some don't
00:41:42you know he had it i mean you saw it in him in practice he practiced the same way i mean sometimes
00:41:47he was a pain in the in practice but you know that's the way it went he made the people practice it
00:41:52against him better because that's the way he practiced and he played that way and i never
00:41:57had a problem with that with people who practiced hard because the people who didn't practice hard
00:42:00usually played poor but the practice people who practice hard usually played real good and that's
00:42:04the way steve was nothing will ever come into my life a monster of the midway that's what it's all
00:42:12about brother that was a team that was a commitment to excellence i knew i could coach about uh
00:42:19uh 40 steve mcmichaels i'd take on the whole nfl there's only one man just like there was dick in
00:42:26chicago that holds the key to this arne anderson unlock that barn door and let these stallions out
00:42:33to feel that wind in their face baby let us run against the wind but brother put that chip back on your
00:42:42shoulder and dare somebody to knock it off
00:42:50a very close look at steve mongo mcmichael and a plea to arne anderson and a plea and a feeling that
00:42:56is echoed as we well know mike today by one crippler chris benoit and i think if there is one man tony that
00:43:02could be the backbone for the four horsemen could put that group back together again it would be arne
00:43:08anderson but as we've witnessed recently it just doesn't seem like arne is ready at this point in
00:43:13time to reform the horseman well this is a second generation competitor by the name of scott putzky
00:43:22larry you're very familiar with his father the polish power ivan putzky well i've wrestled the polish
00:43:28power beat him many times but his son here scott putzky has a lot more uh agility than his father
00:43:35ever had scott putzky's a good athlete with a good future has all the credentials time will tell the
00:43:41story of polish power too much different ring style than his father as you mentioned gonna see scott putzky
00:43:48do some more high risk type moves ivan would steal the kiska right from under your nose less of a power
00:43:54game than his father that's for sure well there's a lot more high flyers in the sport now than there
00:44:00were when ivan was wrestling well the face of wrestling has certainly changed tony no question
00:44:05about that look at riggs's face it changed in one fell swoop of raven all right it'll be riggs
00:44:11and scott putzky here one-on-one in this night where we sit in anticipation of the biggest night ever
00:44:19goldberg hollywood hogan but as hollywood hogan the world champ dictated at the beginning of this
00:44:24program goldberg must go through another man of nwo hollywood one of his brothers before
00:44:31he will give him that shot later on a one count as putzky goes right to the attack of riggs here
00:44:37bears him over he's got a nice snap nice bounce he's got the polis falcons on his legs and
00:44:42i'm polish so i got to root for putzky it's in the blood batten bowling full-iron dragon sweats in a
00:44:49great clothesline that time by riggs to take him down putzky trying to get up and riggs
00:44:57hammers him once again we have seen goldberg's preparation we've seen how focused he is and
00:45:03during the course of this program we've got many treats for you some of the great matches of course
00:45:07that you'll see leading up to goldberg and goldberg's i guess one possibly two matches here tonight
00:45:15but in addition ducky oh and pesky nails him we're going to go back and show you some of the highlights
00:45:22of goldberg's 106 consecutive wins without a defeat including his first win which happened back in
00:45:30september september second round of this program in salt lake city as a cover one two and then i'll
00:45:36show you his 25th his 50th 75th number 100 and of course many fans hope tonight will be 107 and then 108
00:45:45well there are have well there have been some great milestone victories for goldberg but none that would
00:45:49be able to match if he could pull off the big double header tonight obviously hollywood hogan has
00:45:56someone prepared to face goldberg he must go through him in order to get that world's title shot you
00:46:01know that's the big question even goldberg has to be thinking about it who is hollywood hogan talking
00:46:08about that is the difference between night and day who's he going to be stepping in the ring with
00:46:16the irish whip and there goes scotty riggs actually here he comes right into your own living room
00:46:21there with the knee there he went we got elbow right in the face of putzky here and again back to
00:46:27the attack putzky in in major trouble here i'll tell you one thing about his father ivan was going
00:46:33these guys not very fast very strong but he would not give up he would not quit see if scott's got the
00:46:40same makeup and rick's nailed him coming off of the apron there with lariat from the apron all the way
00:46:46down to the floor as you look close in a member a very confused member of the flock and you know we
00:46:52heard from raven just last week in one of his features about how he has done things for people
00:46:58how he took kidman off of the street how he kidman was basically a loner had no one to turn to how he
00:47:06took a man in who was deformed talking about riggs i don't know if he was trying to make us like him or
00:47:12not but certainly it's a great i guess i shouldn't say great but it is a mixture of oddballs and
00:47:16misfits when you talk about the fly both men trying to cross body at the same time and both go down
00:47:23that's exactly what it is and what a collection that flock is and and raven will be the first to
00:47:28take any credit for any semblance of victories or anything that the flock accomplishes
00:47:33i don't know if i'd wave the flock around as a big credential of mine if you have nowhere else to
00:47:41turn maybe you have to there's a right hand by putzky block one block two putzky combination blows
00:47:47now right and left will send the man into the ropes a back elbow put him down
00:47:56this could be a page out of his father's playbook that's what it was big polish hammer took down riggs
00:48:03the polish hammer put him down but he's not finished there larry well it took too long polish
00:48:11hammer but you got to cover the guy riggs no slouch here and putzky waited a little too long a jawbreaker
00:48:18hit the oh boy hit the top turn ball with an across face but putzky ducks low back to the attack again
00:48:25goes riggs putzky putting down one two and he pinned him and scott putzky with there's no question
00:48:35that's the biggest win of his young career in wcw guys well hoping to take advantage of that wcw
00:48:41open door policy he uses a move that he calls appropriately enough the putzky bomb to put away riggs
00:48:48so scott putzky comes away with a gigantic win on a gigantic night and world championship wrestling
00:49:00here on wcw monday night roll it's time for our snickers replay larry zabisco well right here i mean
00:49:08pusky gave him an elbow right smack in the bridge of the nose that laid riggs out right here called the
00:49:14polish hammer that's what ivan used to call it but pusky just ran right into him wasted a little bit
00:49:19of time but made up for it right here caught riggs off guard and right there riggs could not make it to
00:49:27the window and let's give some of the money to the polish boys hungry why wait grab a snickers and why
00:49:39wait because we're going to go on to the second hour and before we go to the second hour let's go back
00:49:44back with our cameras once again as goldberg is in preparation for the biggest night of his life
00:49:51there's goldberg's locker room and there he is that's the ritual we've heard from goldberg
00:50:02little do we know back on the 22nd of september when this virtual unknown walked through the ring
00:50:09and put the jackhammer and put the jackhammer on hugh morris in salt lake city that this was the
00:50:16beginning of a phenomenal rise to stardom for one goldberg and he said right there that's number one
00:50:25and by golly as we begin our number two 106 later tonight if you can make it 107 and 108 goldberg will do
00:50:33the incredible and i say incredible not because of his ability as we begin our second hour but i
00:50:40say incredible because of how quickly it's taken well fans i've been told i'm going to talk more about
00:50:47that but right now we have another limousine arrival outside of the georgia doll here and there's the nwo
00:50:54black and white black and white hollywood hogan
00:51:00goldberg time to go to school you punk
00:51:13you can't have a party without me baby that's right brother god we've missed you i gotta heat
00:51:24things up oh and you know how i'm gonna heat things up i like it how you feeling
00:51:30too sweet got the party goods we got the goods for the party let's go
00:51:36well i think i think it's very apparent by what scott hall said right there that the brother that's
00:51:41going to face goldberg before he gets to hollywood hogan would be scott hall i mean don't you read
00:51:46into that like today that's what i've been able to deduce tony i that's the only thing i could think
00:51:52of it's going to be scott hall against goldberg first and then goldberg has to beat him to get the
00:51:57title shot at hogan tonight at hogan isn't that something of all the king's horses and all the king's
00:52:03men scott hall's the dumbest one they had to fly in
00:52:07jericho back out for the second time tonight he interrupted malenko's match earlier on and helped
00:52:19malenko lose to booker t don't want to take anything away from the great tv champ booker t but certainly
00:52:25the attention was drawn away from the opponent and then the action kick in the back of the head
00:52:29helped matters out a great deal
00:52:34only talking about jerks they go right from one to another don't we well he's picking up the tricks
00:52:40of the trade as rough and crude as they are hello welcome to monday night jericho
00:52:52i am your host with the m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-most i well you know who i am
00:53:07and tonight tonight i gotta face the ultimo dragon but you know what dragon you never beat me you're the
00:53:15not you're not the number one contender at bash at the beach i gotta face dean malenko but dean
00:53:21i mean enough's enough you're not the number one contender the number one contender is the hot
00:53:28feisty sassy young latino ray mysterio jr who beat me last week he's the number one contender
00:53:36and he is the man who i will be facing at bash at the beach it's only fair he beat me
00:53:44what is your problem jojo why do you constantly come and interrupt me get a life man you and i need
00:53:59to get a couple things straight to start with a little charade that you pulled last thursday on
00:54:05thunder with a little mini dressed up like ray mysterio that's not gonna fly with the executive
00:54:10committee no no no you are still going to meet the ultimate dragon here tonight and you're still
00:54:19gonna meet uh-oh hold on here jj does not need to be in the middle of this thing
00:54:28you both have been put on written notice that there's to be no physical contact between either of you
00:54:35prior to bash at the beach on sunday and if either of you makes a move and touches the other there's
00:54:42there's it's immediate disqualification for bass at the beach there is no interpretation now you both
00:54:47know that i expect you to be on your best behavior hold on a second crazy man so you mean
00:54:53if dean malenko touches me after i say your mother wears army boots then he's suspended
00:55:05if dean malenko touches me if i say you're nothing but a talentless jobber then he's suspended
00:55:13if dean malenko touches me if i say your dad must be real proud of you and he would probably love
00:55:23to shake your hand if only he was alive to do so you're suspended you realize what he's trying to do
00:55:30don't do it he's trying to bait you come on you're the ice man don't go for this you've got what you
00:55:37want sunday at bash at the beach don't let him suck you in have you ever stopped to think for one minute
00:55:43he's not going to go for this and you keep running your mouth and putting your foot in it
00:55:49you're going to have to face him in a no disqualification match on sunday you keep saying
00:55:55what you're saying and going into that match you're just asking for it you're right you're right you're
00:56:01right but wait there's one more thing i want to say dean you and i have a lot in common i know you
00:56:09don't think so but you and i are two of a kind your father was a pro athlete my father was a pro athlete
00:56:16we both grew up without our father's guidance we both grew up with our fathers on the road
00:56:22missing him just as your young daughter misses you while you're on the road dean
00:56:27and think about your dad think about how lonely he must have been every night in a different city
00:56:35every night in a different hotel he must have craved human companionship and think about how
00:56:40harder it must have been for your mother and have you ever wondered why you and your brother look
00:56:46absolutely nothing alike that's enough that's enough he snapped he snapped and do you blame him at all
00:56:53i would have snapped before and let's not pull him off turn him loose you're not kidding turn him loose
00:57:00now we've heard about pushing the envelope before but he just went way overboard did chris jericho
00:57:05well unfortunately i think that means that malenko's not going to make it at back to the beach
00:57:11all the way there and you know what mr loophole loves it take a look at it yeah he's smiling through
00:57:16his pain there it's more like a smirk isn't it physically has to be pulled away and they can't
00:57:24even hold him back that's the smirk of a fool he gives chase again we gotta step out for a break
00:57:31this is wild we'll be back on nitro look at that look at the ring
00:57:35all right we're back jericho still in the ring getting prepared for his matchup prepared he's
00:57:44still shooting off his mouth i guess that's how he prepares himself and
00:57:49as we look on at this gigantic crowd on hand this humongous crowd and i haven't we haven't really
00:57:55received an official word from james j dylan but i guess the terms of the written notice that they both
00:58:01received that uh well i gotta get an official word but i guess the malenko is not gonna appear
00:58:06thanks to me at least on the surface it appears that way jj dylan had mentioned that any physical
00:58:12contact between the two would throw the match out for this sunday malenko just finally he just could
00:58:17not take it any longer he finally snapped but i think he may have gotten his money's worth
00:58:24look at the face of jericho now he's still rubbing his nose because he was nailed right between the
00:58:29eyes the ultimo dragon i think there's a combination of concern about the ultimo dragon former cruiserweight
00:58:35champion self and about uh dean malenko you know we have seen this build and build to a boiling point
00:58:41to where there was no point of no return for dean malenko it was a tough spot for dean because you knew
00:58:48as soon as jj made that announcement to us that jericho was going to push it this way well it's been
00:58:53months and months now where jericho continues to bring family members into the picture and it was
00:59:00just he just reached the boiling point did malenko side headlock jericho sitting by the ultimo dragon
00:59:06and jericho runs right over top of him as we are bringing the action out here in the georgia dome back
00:59:12in the locker room area you know and i know we all know millions of us that goldberg is preparing
00:59:18for the matches of his lifetime first apparently scott hall then a win over scott hall tonight later on
00:59:26tonight hollywood hogan for the world title here on nitro live from atlanta georgia the balance again
00:59:34yeah phenomenal balance on this guy the dragon he can go with the best i'm right there a little too quick
00:59:41little too quick tide turns here as jericho takes control oh my incredible impact with that drop kick
00:59:50from in tight delivered to the back of the head of the dragon yeah that was a nasty move jericho's no
00:59:55slouch overconfident over cocky and that's going to get him in trouble but he does have the ability
01:00:01in the athletic background to back it up as well as the wcw world's cruiserweight title well we all know
01:00:07that look at this arrogant pose and cover for only a two count not only wanting to be the cruiserweight
01:00:17champion win but the show of his opponent in the process now the whip in to the nearside gilsere dragon saw
01:00:25it coming hey this is one man you cannot make a mistake again dragon will be all over you
01:00:31and here comes the link goes in this match is thrown out and malenko doesn't give a darn yes he
01:00:42didn't get his money's worth earlier but now he is put in the dragon look he's just go get him he's trying
01:00:48to take him right out is what he's trying to do pulling his hair out by the roots he's you're exactly
01:00:53right he's pulling it on the hair security has come out he's got a handful look at that he ripped
01:01:00his hair out from the roots give it to me and he's still going at it
01:01:06look at security they're trying to and he's still tearing the hair out
01:01:11they cannot stop this man i think jericho needs to run for his life is what he needs to do
01:01:19and they're still physically holding malenko back and explosive nitro continues from the joint
01:01:25oh look at this georgia dome having this time out stay with us malenko's beauty saloon
01:01:32we welcome you back at just a few moments ago there's some of the hair of chris jericho
01:01:37pulled from the roots by d malenko malenko not only out of bash at the beach he is out of the georgia dome
01:01:42here tonight there you see security this was after we went to the break there you see atlanta's police
01:01:48officers assigned here tonight and they handcuff malenko i never thought we would see this to a man
01:01:55like dean malenko handcuffing dean malenko and he's been arrested here tonight
01:02:00wow i mean it is it is so volatile between these two men it's something that a wrestling ring literally
01:02:06it's an old cliche but it really applies here is not big enough for both men especially someone that
01:02:11we respect as much as dean malenko to see him taken away under those conditions especially
01:02:16because of what jericho has said over the course of the past few months we're at the halfway point of
01:02:22this electric monday nitro and joined as always by our colleague the one and only bobby the brain
01:02:27heenan well goldberg double duty here right right gotta face scott hall if he beats scott hall then he'll
01:02:33face hollywood hogan you knew and i knew that man would have a plan hollywood hogan going in
01:02:37to tonight's big event boy you hit the nail on the head there you just know the way hogan
01:02:42operates eric bischoff operates they got a plan it's a big plan and if you think the beginning
01:02:47an hour and a half before i came out was great stick around this is going to get nothing but better
01:02:53all right fans we want to see your nitro party tape send your nitro party tapes to the address on
01:02:58your screen one cnn center po box 60 atlanta 30303 the nitro party is brought to you by mug root beer

01:03:19i am that goldberg walks out of here tonight as a wcw nwo black and white world's heavyweight champion
01:03:29johnny swinger young man who has certainly made some headway in this sport over the next few months
01:03:37got youth on the side arrogance and a heck of a lot of ability as well might be certainly been
01:03:42impressive on a number of our programs tony wcw saturday night as well as our syndicated shows
01:03:48chance to step it up a notch here and really open up the eyes of some of the executives of world
01:03:54championship wrestling with an appearance on nitro for johnny swinger in front of enough for the rock and roll
01:04:01who gave him the microphone do you know who i am jericho just left it in the ring i guess
01:04:09i'll tell you who i am i'm johnny swinger
01:04:12do you know what i am i'll tell you what i am i'm the hottest young commodity in wrestling today
01:04:22and tonight the whole world's gonna find out why
01:04:26well he's put together no doubt about that now if he can just match his ability with his mouth
01:04:35he'll be doing pretty good the hottest young commodity i wonder what a fellow with a win streak
01:04:41of 106 and 0 and the locker room has to think about that
01:04:44and we're not talking about you right we're talking about chavo guerrero jr thank you hard
01:04:55had it all on his way out now we saw this pants ring on thunder eddie guerrero snap his own way
01:05:02remember that attack with the scissors and cut a chunk of the hair out of chavo so i guess the hard
01:05:08hat is going to prevent that you know i don't think a hard hat would have helped jericho with more
01:05:13ankle after him he'd have pulled the hair out all around the heart he looked like mo howard
01:05:21very bizarre turn of events over the past couple of months
01:05:27as you look at the scissors all right fans we've been talking about the numbers of people here
01:05:32in the georgia dome here tonight for wcw monday nitro and we all were amazed and excited about the

01:06:56his head can't you it's kind of i mean eddie cut pretty deep that last week mike now almost glaring
01:07:01you can see the chunk that he took right out of the side of the head of chavo guerrero jr i mean
01:07:05he keeps covering with his hands so no one sees it i mean so he's got a ball spot or going to have
01:07:10to use both his feet to cover his way i like this swinger he's aggressive he takes charge he really
01:07:20is aggressive and that's what you got to do we you know how many times you've said it larry zabisco
01:07:25said it brain that for a young wrestler to be successful he's got to take charge and the cover
01:07:31have the tornado ddt by chavo jr and chavo took charge that time with his tornado ddt and comes
01:07:38away with a win so much for your hottest commodity
