David Arquette's Last WCW Appearance (New Blood Rising 8-13-00)

Bankie Bruce

Many people forget that David Arquette's final WCW was not the night after he lost the World Heavyweight Championship at Slamboree 2000 - it was several months after New Blood Rising on August 13, 2000 in Vancouver, BC, on the side of fellow DDP betrayer "Positively" Kanyon, against Buff Bagwell, during the infamous Judy Bagwell on a Forklift Match.

01:02It's a construction head. One. Two. No! He did not stay down for that.

01:09David Arquette out of nowhere. He was right on the front line of backstabbing Diamond Dallas Pace.

01:19Arquette comes to the ring. David Arquette, we understand he's in Vancouver

01:24filming a new movie, has shown up here tonight at the P&E. Double clothesline!

01:47The double BB. One. Two. Three. Yes!

01:54Courtney, I'm coming home to help you. Your husband's dead.

01:59What an awful decision. Judy Bagwell cheated out of the opportunity of a lifetime

02:04to be Chris Caden's Kimberly. This is a sad moment, Tony and Scott.

02:09I think it's a moment of relief for the Bagwell family.

02:12Infinite forklift. Judy Bagwell has been embarrassed. She has been attacked.

02:18She has been berated by many people, including you, Mark Madden. And now,

02:22actually, she's a very nice lady. It's only because she's on the same plane as you here

02:26now in this building. And it's a big moment for the Bagwell family. Judy comes back home.

02:33And maybe he'd love to get this whole mess behind him and further his career here at

02:39Sports Entertainment. They win. For Bagwell, in the face of David Arquette's attempt to do another

02:46square backstabbing maneuver here on a WCW telecast. You've got to treat a former world

02:51champion like David Arquette with a lot more respect than he received here. First from Bagwell,

02:56now from this crowd. David Arquette's one of the all-time greats. Here is your winner,

03:01Canyon Cutter, on David Arquette. Now, Arquette did screw up, didn't he?

03:07Well, he didn't come through for him, you're right. And he paid for it with a Canyon Cutter.

03:13Well, Courtney Cox, alone at home. Where does she live? I could be there in

03:17probably two or three hours. LA, I guess, right? We've got a TV show to do, Lane Brain,

03:22and we've got a couple more hours. At least you want to leave now. I don't think putting

03:26me and Courtney on TV would get Rayton.
