00:00:00Who's next?
00:00:24I'm next, me and Paige tonight for the World Heavyweight belt.
00:00:29Off and running from a sold-out of title center.
00:00:36We're on campus.
00:00:37Wrestling fans all around the world, Nitro is on the air.
00:00:44A venue that's been sold out for months, we're on campus.
00:00:48This is the team, Tony Schiavone, the one and the only.
00:00:52Thank goodness, Bobby DeBrain, he did Goldberg and DDP.
00:00:55DDP has been successful now two times defending his World Heavyweight Championship.
00:01:01But we're gonna hear from Diamond Alice Page in a few moments on this program.
00:01:05If he accepts that challenge, which we're sure that he will,
00:01:08he will go up against a man who is literally unstoppable in this sporting Goldberg.
00:01:12Don't forget this, he never turned on a challenge before he was champion.
00:01:17Now he's in the driver's seat.
00:01:18This might be a different story, Tony, we don't know.
00:01:21When you become champion, your thinking changes.
00:01:23Also here tonight, ladies and gentlemen, Rowdy, Rowdy Piper is with us.
00:01:28And tonight, for the United States Heavyweight Championship.
00:01:31During this three hour program, big pop of pop,
00:01:35Scott Steiner will defend against K-Dawg, Conan.
00:01:39And that will be coming up a little bit later on in this telecast.
00:01:42Monday night, Monday night.
00:01:45Having a good time out here at ringside?
00:01:49I love it, Tony.
00:01:50Hey, I got something that's gonna even make you have a lot more fun at ringside.
00:01:54Tonight, I'm gonna sell again.
00:01:57Are you ready for this?
00:01:58I don't know.
00:01:59It's a pick no stick versus trash can man.
00:02:03I'm starting to tell some lights.
00:02:05Trash, trash.
00:02:08Whoa.
00:02:09Well, here's ringside.
00:02:12Well, if anybody knows anything about trash cans,
00:02:14candles, sticks, barn doors, bar stools, bar maids, bar rags.
00:02:19It's Mac and Brian.
00:02:24Do you think there's gonna be a bar maid or a pub rag or something?
00:02:27Who knows, who knows?
00:02:29What did we see the last time?
00:02:31Ladders?
00:02:32Security rails?
00:02:34We saw just about everything.
00:02:35And on the hook.
00:02:41Played by Aaron Anderson.
00:02:43One, two, three, four.
00:02:48The former World Tag Team Champions, who certainly played over the past couple
00:02:56of weeks and had issue upon issue against not necessarily Kikner and Mysterio,
00:03:02the Tag Team champ.
00:03:04But they've had issue with the men and
00:03:07talking about Raven and Shatter.
00:03:11Well, they've had issues with everyone.
00:03:13They're determined, you know, the mentality of the horsemen, win at all costs.
00:03:17And that's what they want.
00:03:19Well, win at all costs is what it's about.
00:03:23And pro wrestling, would you agree with that?
00:03:25You gotta win.
00:03:26I've always said that, and some people always say, well, maybe you don't do this.
00:03:29That's underhanded.
00:03:31Do what you have to do, cuz he'll do it to you.
00:03:34Believe you, we fans, you know this by now.
00:03:36The horsemen have certainly set the standard throughout the years.
00:03:40And right now, at the Zenith, as far as doing everything it takes to win.
00:03:45They're against the Armstrong brothers who missed the opening bout.
00:03:48Charles Robinson is the referee, and there's a story in itself.
00:03:53As the seven knots between Stan Armstrong and the Crippler goes on.
00:03:58Charles Robinson, who obviously is in the back pocket of Chris McClain and
00:04:03the horsemen, has a big task ahead of him,
00:04:07coming up at Slamboree on the 9th of May.
00:04:11Here's a reversal into the ropes.
00:04:14A gut shot that time, and the Crippler kicking Armstrong.
00:04:18The great Andre takeover in the Steve Armstrong attack is made.
00:04:23Charles Robinson, as you know by now,
00:04:27has caught that time for a face, gorgeous job,
00:04:31the knockout, the ballet of the Macho Man Randy Savage.
00:04:35She is the unbelievable player with the career of the Macho Man in the balance.
00:04:41Well, you know, Tony, you made a statement here.
00:04:43I think you should be a little careful about it.
00:04:45You said that Charles Robinson was in Flair's hip pocket.
00:04:49Have you seen any money change hands?
00:04:51No, I- Well, you can't make a statement like that.
00:04:53But I'm not blind.
00:04:54I mean, you can change it, and it's not that I'm really nothing about recording.
00:04:59You're gonna talk to McClain.
00:05:01Look at that, guys.
00:05:02Well, they're alive tonight, aren't they?
00:05:09But Charles Robinson is going to wrestle on behalf of Ric Flair,
00:05:14and you're saying that he's not in the back pocket of the press?
00:05:17Well, he was slapped in the face by Gordon George, and he had that statement.
00:05:20He called her a bimbo, and she didn't like it.
00:05:22But to say he's in Flair's back pocket, it sounds like he's all the time in Flair's back pocket.
00:05:27Unless you have proof, you can't say these things.
00:05:29My reputation is a stake out here.
00:05:31My reputation is going to stay the same, regardless of what's set out here tonight.
00:05:35Makes sense, huh?
00:05:36Oh, I know so.
00:05:37No improving it.
00:05:39Wouldn't want to.
00:05:41Watch out.
00:05:42Armstrong on the floor, comes back in.
00:05:44And Dean Malenko goes to work now on Steve Armstrong,
00:05:47thrown in the corner at the lower right side.
00:05:49Tag made.
00:05:50Goldberg made a big statement moments ago as he walked live into the Oklahoma Center.
00:05:55And he wants to be in the World Title on this program.
00:06:01But we're gonna be hearing momentarily from the World Heavyweight Champion,
00:06:07Diamond Dallas Page.
00:06:09Like I said, he's in a different driver's seat now.
00:06:12Now he's the 100, he's not the 100 anymore.
00:06:15His whole mentality could change.
00:06:18Goldberg!
00:06:20Goldberg!
00:06:21Goldberg!
00:06:22Goldberg!
00:06:23Goldberg!
00:06:24It's gonna hit.
00:06:25It's gonna hit either side now.
00:06:26Here comes Steve Armstrong, got a two count.
00:06:28I got here about 4.30 this afternoon, and they were outside in the parking lot,
00:06:32chanting Goldberg.
00:06:33It was at 4.30 this afternoon.
00:06:35Goldberg has certainly made his reputation in this world of the country.
00:06:39Let's break.
00:06:40Third of these years in the world championship wrestling,
00:06:42as a member of the Georgia Bulldogs in the legendary games against the Florida Gators.
00:06:48Big game is the head of the Gator Bowl and takes it with Florida,
00:06:53and nearly 8.
00:06:54Now this cocktail party they have.
00:06:56Meanwhile on the floor, look at this.
00:06:58Look at this, it's Benoit sending Steve Armstrong back in.
00:07:03Arn Anderson really being active, involved in matches in ringside with a horseman brain.
00:07:08More so than ever, when he first came back after- Cover.
00:07:11Got him.
00:07:12No, first came back after his injury, he was a little subdued.
00:07:16And I don't think he cares anymore, he realizes he has to get involved.
00:07:20He's gotta do what he takes, I guess.
00:07:22And elbow, down goes Armstrong.
00:07:25It's a great opening match.
00:07:26It certainly is, it's our opening tag team bout for three hours live tonight.
00:07:31And only on TNT, we are live, and Benoit, belly to back, cover, Robinson over.
00:07:36Only a two count.
00:07:39Into the side of the head goes the Crippler Chris Benoit.
00:07:45Fans also, to give you a kind of a rundown of what we got on tap tonight,
00:07:48said that Rowdy Rowdy Piper was here, also a Cruiserweight title match.
00:07:53But not one-on-one, it's a four-way Cruiserweight title match.
00:07:57Four men will buy to the Cruiserweight title match, as you see Travis Robinson with his back to the action.
00:08:03And now, is it tag made or not, I guess it doesn't matter, a little intimidation here.
00:08:08One, two, three, two, three, two, three, two.
00:08:15That should be a heck of a-
00:08:18Punishing!
00:08:18Crash can, Kendo stick match.
00:08:20Right now, is it the trash cans packed, of course, with the Kendo sticks.
00:08:26Master of the trash cans.
00:08:27Yes, he is.
00:08:27Buff Bagwell against the Fiskal Fino tonight.
00:08:31And a whole lot more, live here from Florida.
00:08:36Also tonight, Kidman in action.
00:08:41How about this one?
00:08:42It gets really hit on this program.
00:08:45That's all, and of course, great interviews and
00:08:48the other shows.
00:08:49An extremely, shocking occurrences that only we can bring you here on that way.
00:08:55You're right about that.
00:08:57You don't know what's gonna happen here.
00:08:58I don't, you don't.
00:08:59I don't know if anybody in the ring ever knows what's gonna happen.
00:09:02We don't know the ring.
00:09:06You know, we don't care.
00:09:07Whatever happens in the ring, we love it.
00:09:10One big Monday night party.
00:09:11That's what it's all about.
00:09:20Tony, you heard anything about the Hollywood Hogan?
00:09:23Hollywood Hogan.
00:09:24Hollywood Hogan.
00:09:25Well, as Mike Gennet.
00:09:26Let us do that on Thursday.
00:09:27On Saturday.
00:09:28God.
00:09:29Get up, I'm sorry.
00:09:30Get up, I'm sorry.
00:09:31Get up, I'm sorry.
00:09:32Get up, I'm sorry.
00:09:33As a result of what happened, you'll recall, on our last pay-per-view
00:09:38spring stampede at the Handsome Diamond Dallas page, he wrapped Hogan's legs
00:09:42around a ring post and put on that figure four.
00:09:45And you know how severe that was, Hogan would have never left that world title
00:09:48four-way match.
00:09:49Never.
00:09:50That world of Hogan needs more Hollywood Hogan than anything on this earth.
00:09:53He needs that to survive.
00:09:55And he wouldn't have left that match unless he couldn't have walked.
00:09:58We're gonna show you that footage later on tonight in this telecast.
00:10:01Hollywood Hogan.
00:10:03I haven't heard.
00:10:08I don't believe.
00:10:09And Diamond Dallas, he was on the floor hanging upside down.
00:10:15I heard him say, I can hear it pop.
00:10:18That's right.
00:10:19I'll tell you, he was at the hurt Hollywood Hogan, but he did just that.
00:10:23Meanwhile, the Armstrong with a double club kick.
00:10:26The Armstrong coming back now, but on the floor, Steve Armstrong with Aaron Anderson,
00:10:30Malenko on the ring with Scott Armstrong.
00:10:33And a 5-1 on the side.
00:10:354-1 on the side.
00:10:364-1 on the side.
00:10:37But a 1-2.
00:10:38It was saved by Chris Benoit.
00:10:40They're fighting on the floor in the ring.
00:10:43Up the aisle.
00:10:44This is great.
00:10:46This is glorious is what it is, Steve.
00:10:48Mike Jones.
00:10:49Good move by Armstrong.
00:10:52Double under the butterfly pick up.
00:10:54He got a powder bomb.
00:10:55Malenko's gonna go over to Texas.
00:10:57Poor relief.
00:10:58He's got it all.
00:11:00He's got it all.
00:11:01He's got it all.
00:11:02It's over.
00:11:07And quickly, in the groups of the Texas probably,
00:11:11The Horseman will put you out for God.
00:11:14You gotta say this, the Armstrong gave him a heck of a fight.
00:11:18Okay, I will.
00:11:19The Armstrong gave him a heck of a fight, and you're right.
00:11:22But in the end, the leadership of Arne Anderson.
00:11:26The veterans, Malenko and Benoit.
00:11:29The Foreman tag team champs prevail here on Monday Night Raw.
00:11:34Well, you can tell the difference in The Horseman when Arne Anderson's out there.
00:11:37And he's all cranked up.
00:11:38Here you see Malenko.
00:11:39Got Armstrong hooked.
00:11:41Drops him on the back of his head.
00:11:43Hooks him to that Texas corner.
00:11:46He turns him.
00:11:47The secret of this is he had him in the middle of the ring.
00:11:49No place to go.
00:11:50He taps out.
00:11:51Your winner, Dean Malenko of The Four Horsemen.
00:11:55Along with the Crickler, Chris Spinoa, the entire team action.
00:12:00And only their opening bout.
00:12:02Where tonight, U.S. title on the line.
00:12:04Four quarters for the Cruiserweight title.
00:12:06Trash Canada's Kendall Stake.
00:12:08And we're going to hear next from Dean Bates.
00:12:11How are you?
00:12:12Hi.
00:12:13Is that them?
00:12:14Sure is.
00:12:15Let me see.
00:12:20He signed both of them?
00:12:24Cuckoo's Nest.
00:12:34We are Titans.
00:13:00We are Titans.
00:13:02This portion of WCW Monday Nitro is brought to you by Valvoline.
00:13:06You can always tell the guys who use Valvoline.
00:13:13That's the way I like it.
00:13:14Whoa, what are you doing here, Randy?
00:13:15What up, Doug?
00:13:16What are you doing here?
00:13:17What do you mean, what am I doing here?
00:13:18Yeah, you can't come.
00:13:19I'll steal the show.
00:13:20You've been suspended and barred from the show.
00:13:22No, that's not the deal, man.
00:13:23The President Flair has barred you.
00:13:25No, man, it's okay.
00:13:26Something different than that.
00:13:27It's all right, it's all right.
00:13:28President Flair barred him from the show, suspended and
00:13:31can't come in.
00:13:32That's my last instruction.
00:13:34Yeah, well, he may not be president come the end of tonight.
00:13:37I'm the commissioner.
00:13:38I say this is the former heavyweight champion of the world.
00:13:41He comes in.
00:13:41Gorgeous, George, go ahead.
00:13:42Are you going to take that responsibility?
00:13:43I'll take responsibility for it.
00:13:45Props.
00:13:45Props.
00:13:46I like it, man.
00:13:47Very cool.
00:13:48Sweet.
00:13:49I like that.
00:13:50All right.
00:13:51Let's go.
00:13:52Let's go, guys.
00:13:52Let's go.
00:13:53All right, ladies and gentlemen, I feel a little like Rodney Dangerfield
00:13:57back on campus here at the University of Florida.
00:14:01And a packed house hanging from the rafters.
00:14:05Whoa.
00:14:07Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the WCW WA Champion of the World,
00:14:14Diamond Dallas Page.
00:14:17Diamond Dallas Page, who you know fans had to hear what Goldberg said at the top of
00:14:22the program live, and the challenge that he made for the World Champ, a red-hot World Champ.
00:14:34I might add now here, Brain, if you think about what happened last week on this program, and
00:14:38what happened on Thunder as well, he's 2-0 at the World Champ.
00:14:42In a very short title reign, it'll be interesting to see what he's got to say to Gene Oakley about
00:14:49what Goldberg said when he arrived.
00:14:51All right, as we know, it's Slambery, brought to you by Kent 10-220.
00:14:55This man has got a big matchup, but at the top of the program tonight, here at the University
00:14:59of Florida, who pulls in but Goldberg, and he's got his eyes on you, DDP.
00:15:12Before I address that issue, I'd like to send a special shout-out to Hollywood Hogan.
00:15:18I know you're getting cut on this week, Hogan, and I just want to let you know, I wish you the best.
00:15:26In all due respect, you were responsible in part for that happening with that big report.
00:15:30But another thing I want to address, that this week here, being the heavyweight champion of the world
00:15:44has been the greatest week of my life. Now, what were you asking me about?
00:15:48I was asking you about Goldberg. Does that ring a bell, Goldberg?
00:15:51Goldberg.
00:15:53Goldberg.
00:15:54You see, Goldberg, he tends to get a little overzealous. Gets himself all worked up.
00:16:06Goldberg, right now, you're going to stop working yourself up, and you got to get focused, like me.
00:16:15Because I know what it's like to climb that ladder.
00:16:20I know what it's like to grab this brass ring.
00:16:27But I don't blame you, man.
00:16:29Coming here, shouting out how you want me.
00:16:34Because right now, I am the man.
00:16:36And I know that you want to be me.
00:16:40Because I see a lot of me in you.
00:16:50But there's nothing that I would like more than to put the heavyweight title on the line tonight.
00:16:59But that's not gonna happen.
00:17:10No.
00:17:10And I'll tell you.
00:17:12What's up, Kevin?
00:17:22That's not gonna happen right now.
00:17:26That's true.
00:17:27That's not gonna happen, right?
00:17:30Come out of here.
00:17:37I think he agreed to it.
00:17:51He got nose to nose.
00:17:52He said yes to Paige.
00:17:54It only took a face-to-face confrontation and Paige said yes.
00:17:59So that means we got it, right?
00:18:01We've got it tonight.
00:18:03Paige, Dober, world title, Nitro Live.
00:18:07Tonight.
00:18:09It's on TNT.
00:18:11And it's only the beginning.
00:18:12We're coming right back.
00:18:14Don't touch that quicker.
00:18:19See, I'm not only right here too, Dave.
00:18:21It's the best thing for him.
00:18:24I'm telling you, you know, he needs help.
00:18:25It's only 72 hours.
00:18:3072.
00:18:31Wait a second.
00:18:3272 hours just for observation.
00:18:34Great.
00:18:36Great.
00:18:38Take care of your dad.
00:18:43That's all right, boy.
00:18:44That's a good man.
00:18:53So hold the fort down in the swamp here in the state of Florida in Gainesville.
00:18:58We're gonna have Diamond Dallas play and Goldberg for the world title tonight on this program there,
00:19:05Reese.
00:19:05How would you like to be a button on that shirt?
00:19:07I want to know what Goldberg said to Diamond Dallas.
00:19:09See, he hasn't been a champion that much, Diamond Dallas.
00:19:12He made a bad mistake.
00:19:13When you're champion, you make the decision.
00:19:16You don't let somebody intimidate you.
00:19:18You're the boss.
00:19:19You're the champion.
00:19:20You do it.
00:19:21They do what you say.
00:19:23Let's go to meet Gene backstage with EDP, Gene.
00:19:26All right.
00:19:26Can't be soon enough for me.
00:19:27You heard the comments of Diamond Dallas Page as WCW World Heavyweight Champion.
00:19:32Don't go away.
00:19:32I want to get something clarified.
00:19:34So there is no confusion tonight.
00:19:37Are you going to be facing Goldberg?
00:19:38And is the title on the line?
00:19:40Well, obviously, you couldn't read my lips.
00:19:42Of course, the title's on the line.
00:19:44And the bottom line is I never walked away from a challenge in my life.
00:19:47Last time me and Goldberg met, Las Vegas, we blew the roof off.
00:19:52Let's see what the roof's worth here.
00:19:53You mentioned the name of Hollywood Hulk Hogan.
00:19:56Don't go away because I want you and a national television audience to take a look at what
00:20:00happened at the hands of Diamond Dallas Page at Spring Stampede.
00:20:04Take a look at this.
00:20:05Don't worry about it.
00:20:12He, a week ago, Diamond Dallas Page did this to Hollywood Hulk.
00:20:20This is, this is Hulk.
00:20:22I mean, this will take a man's career right out.
00:20:25But it's what you had to do to prevail.
00:20:28Look what was at stake.
00:20:29Makes sense to me.
00:20:31Well, it does make sense.
00:20:33In the battleground, that is World Championship Wrestling.
00:20:36And as we talked about Hollywood Hogan liftoff.
00:20:39You heard him say, I heard that he snapped.
00:20:42He went to Birmingham, Alabama.
00:20:44Now, tomorrow, we'll go under the night.
00:20:48Mace will be shooting for Hollywood Hulk Hogan.
00:20:51We don't know when time came up after when Hulk will return.
00:20:54But we do know that that was a big moment in his career.
00:21:00And if you think about all the things that Hollywood Hulk has endured.
00:21:04The tournament on the 5th, April 8th, is a big moment in his career.
00:21:09And you know he's going to see it, Doc.
00:21:13Doc Andrews, who is the number one medical surgeon in the athletic sports in the world.
00:21:19He's not going to the top of the box.
00:21:21I think he gets the best, so he's very serious.
00:21:25The top boys have been a surgeon in the world.
00:21:28Essentially, he's working all the way out with Hulk Hogan.
00:21:31He will advance, obviously, Thursday on Thunder with Tanae and Tabisco.
00:21:43We'll give you an update on the prognosis of the surgery in Hollywood.
00:21:47And his recovery and his prognosis for that.
00:21:50That's coming up Thursday on PBS.
00:21:53Well, now, we've got two in the ring.
00:21:57One with lightning bolts, one with horns.
00:22:00And now let's bring it in with New York.
00:22:02It's a four-way Cruiserweight title match, only on Monday 8th.
00:22:09This is great.
00:22:10What energy in the fans here.
00:22:13You know what?
00:22:14You know what it does to us?
00:22:15The energy that they have just permeates through you and me.
00:22:19We bring that up to the fans right live here on TNT.
00:22:22Don't you think it gets us?
00:22:23Of course it does.
00:22:24We're the team.
00:22:25Here he comes, ladies and gentlemen.
00:22:29The world of Cruiserweight champion.
00:22:32Also, one out of the tag team champion, Ray Jr.
00:22:36This is gonna be a mind-boggling matchup.
00:22:49I don't think there's any right for you.
00:22:51For you fans watching Monday night right here, that there will be problems.
00:22:56I think they're just really just small problems right now between Ray Jr.
00:23:01and Kidman.
00:23:02And now they're doing it last week.
00:23:04When Ray was being pounded by the horsemen, Kidman was nowhere to be found.
00:23:10We then find out Kidman was not even in the building.
00:23:12So we can understand why Kidman didn't come out and help Ray.
00:23:15Everybody searches for a story.
00:23:16They're making more out of it than they did.
00:23:18The man's not here, the man can't help you.
00:23:21Yeah, everybody wants to stir up stuff.
00:23:23We've known that for years.
00:23:24Not me.
00:23:25Yeah.
00:23:26Yeah, I know.
00:23:27You don't wanna cause trouble, do you?
00:23:28Did you hear what Tanae said about you last week?
00:23:29Mike Tanae?
00:23:30I'll tell you later on.
00:23:31Is it about me?
00:23:32Well, he's never liked me.
00:23:35He has?
00:23:36I don't wanna be the, spread the hearsay.
00:23:40I'll tell you later on.
00:23:41All right, it's a four-quarter Cruiserweight title.
00:23:48No more!
00:23:49Hold on a second.
00:23:53Get a little bit closer, guys.
00:23:55Is that Alex Wright?
00:23:58I mean, I can tell the math and I'm not sure for a moment.
00:24:03No!
00:24:04I wasn't sure who that was, but that looked a lot like Alex Wright.
00:24:08Do you remember Alex Wright?
00:24:09Yeah.
00:24:10Yeah?
00:24:11Yeah?
00:24:12Is that all he did from here?
00:24:13I'm trying to think.
00:24:14Remember, he didn't look like that.
00:24:15No, he didn't.
00:24:16That was a very mysterious look.
00:24:18A scary looking figure inside.
00:24:20And if that was Alex Wright, what a three-six it has become.
00:24:24I'm trying to revisit that one more time, hopefully, here on this program.
00:24:29Jesus Christ.
00:24:33Aluminum foil around his heels.
00:24:36Aluminum foil?
00:24:37Doesn't look like it to me.
00:24:38I mean, it just, that'll scare you.
00:24:41I wanna show you how fast he can eat chicken.
00:24:46All right.
00:24:47Did they collide?
00:24:49Blitzkrieg and Ray Jr.
00:24:52Aluminum.
00:24:53Aluminum at breakneck speed.
00:24:55Thanks to homitude and psychosis.
00:24:58Did anybody get the number of the truck that hit these two?
00:25:01Well, remember, it's every man for himself, but the one man that can execute a pinfall.
00:25:06Are the one man who can get another man to submit to be the Cruiserweight champ,
00:25:11even if the Cruiserweight champ, Ray Jr., get involved with the pinfall or the submission.
00:25:16Look at this.
00:25:17Ray hits up there.
00:25:18No!
00:25:19You see how much the action turns?
00:25:24In one moment, the Mysterio's on top.
00:25:28The next moment is Hoob and Duke.
00:25:31And you can't call this action.
00:25:33Up and...
00:25:36Blitzkrieg up top.
00:25:38Ray Jr. connects.
00:25:40And does not try to make a cover here?
00:25:42Could this be a mistake?
00:25:44One, two, three.
00:25:45Look at this.
00:25:46Hoob and Duke tried to make a cover.
00:25:48Hoob and Duke could have slipped one in off of a good move by Ray Jr.
00:25:51That time.
00:25:52It's up to Ray Jr. to keep his eyes out.
00:25:54He's gotta make sure what's happening in that ring.
00:25:56Don't worry about yourself that much.
00:25:58Worry about everybody else.
00:25:59Back body and Ray goes all the way outside.
00:26:01Did he disappear, Cliff?
00:26:03It's very apparent that the one focus has been to double-team Ray Jr.
00:26:09by any combination of these three men here.
00:26:12And now Ray's on the outside.
00:26:14Meanwhile, Hoob and Duke is working as a team here on Blitzkrieg.
00:26:21Good double-team move, but who's gonna make the cover?
00:26:27One, two.
00:26:28Out of nowhere.
00:26:30Ray Jr., the Cruiserweight champ, finally came up and spills out on the floor.
00:26:37Tonight, ladies and gentlemen, it's going to be on this program.
00:26:41One of our biggest matches in a long, long time.
00:26:44DDP and Goldberg for the World Heavyweight Championship.
00:26:48That's live here tonight.
00:26:49That is live on your television.
00:26:53Up on top is Blitzkrieg, being held by Psychosis.
00:26:57He caught Psychosis on the back of the head.
00:27:00He hit his mark, but it was the wrong guy.
00:27:02He can hit anybody.
00:27:04He can pinch Psychosis if he wanted to.
00:27:06But now Blitzkrieg sees an opening and walks right through the door.
00:27:10Little kind of move into that corner, but still got a good Lariat.
00:27:17Good Blitzkrieg.
00:27:18Now, he should go after Psychosis right now.
00:27:21Go after anybody.
00:27:23Ray.
00:27:24Good little moonshot from the top one.
00:27:26He got a two-only.
00:27:28That's not so dangerous about a match like this.
00:27:31You're in there all by yourself with four guys, and you don't know where it's coming from,
00:27:35but you know it's gonna come.
00:27:36Somebody's gonna blindside you.
00:27:38There you go.
00:27:39There you go.
00:27:40That's what they should have been doing all along, these two men, instead of working as a unit.
00:27:45Finally, Psychosis.
00:27:46John Hoovy.
00:27:47And Hoovy hits the man like a long dart that time.
00:27:51Brushed him on the spin wheel kick.
00:27:54Meanwhile, Ray and Blitzkrieg are left of your screen going at him.
00:27:57I think Hoovy left a stain in the ring.
00:28:00Oh, he did.
00:28:01He hit so hard.
00:28:02Okay.
00:28:03Here's another drop kick.
00:28:04Both Psychosis and Hoovy goes on the outside of Blitzkrieg and Ray Jr.
00:28:10And now, here comes the baseball slide drop kick.
00:28:17Watch this.
00:28:18They're not done yet.
00:28:19Bootshot.
00:28:20Middle-off springboard.
00:28:23Same thing with Ray.
00:28:25What action, huh?
00:28:27Our bodies anywhere, and that's the way we like it.
00:28:34Looks like closing time.
00:28:39Man, here's Ray.
00:28:40Super strategy.
00:28:41You got two men out.
00:28:42Ray needs a drop for Blitzkrieg, and Blitzkrieg got one blow in it.
00:28:46Well, Blitzkrieg, if he's smart, he better do some damage right now real quick.
00:28:50Those other two guys are laying there on the floor.
00:28:53Now's his opportunity.
00:28:54You're right, Tony.
00:28:55Hold him on.
00:28:57Now go for the cover right now.
00:28:59He's got no air.
00:29:01He's got no air.
00:29:02No, don't leave him.
00:29:04Blitzkrieg, by the way.
00:29:07That's how connected to the midsection.
00:29:09One, two, he's almost won the Cruiserweight Falcon Blitzkrieg.
00:29:14Both getting up real, real slow.
00:29:19Hoovy and Psychosa on opposite ends of the ring here.
00:29:24Both now back into this.
00:29:26No metallic.
00:29:27No, Psychosa's in aisle nine now.
00:29:29That's where he is.
00:29:30And back of the neck.
00:29:32Hooventude drives Blitzkrieg outside.
00:29:35And that leaves now Hooventude and Ray Jr. in the ring.
00:29:39Hooventude's making a big mistake here, Tony.
00:29:41He's turning his back.
00:29:42You've got three other guys in this match that want you.
00:29:48Well done.
00:29:49This is for the Cruiserweight title.
00:29:51Later tonight, DDP and Goldberg for the world title.
00:29:55On this very program.
00:29:56End of the road.
00:29:57Snow White.
00:29:59Pinses are kicked in.
00:30:00Whoa.
00:30:01He's doing it.
00:30:03And they're going loud here in Gainesville.
00:30:08He's got it.
00:30:12He's got it.
00:30:13Pins.
00:30:14No, see out of nowhere.
00:30:16Drop kicked his teeth right out of his head that time is what happened.
00:30:19Those were the feet of psychosis in your screen.
00:30:22He'll try to make a cover.
00:30:23Now you got two teeth, toothless guys in there.
00:30:26Two teethless, toothless guys.
00:30:28I like that.
00:30:30Fight on the floor.
00:30:35Psychosis blitzkrieg.
00:30:38Inside these remarkable athletes.
00:30:41Ray Jr. and Psych and Hooventude.
00:30:43They've gone on at the floor.
00:30:45They've gone on at the floor.
00:30:46Short move up and over that time by Hoovie.
00:30:49Slow to cover.
00:30:52Three rays out of it in a two count.
00:30:57Two men who over a year ago, in this sport, had lost one.
00:31:04They've lost one, and now have enjoyed remarkable success since that time.
00:31:11Psychosis and Blitzkrieg are using their heads right now.
00:31:14They're on the floor.
00:31:15They're taking a little bit of a breather, but they're there to help if they have to
00:31:18save somebody.
00:31:19They're saving themselves for what they have to do.
00:31:21Hoovie reverses ties and drops him on the back of his head.
00:31:24Ray goes down hard.
00:31:26Blitzkrieg and Psychosis have arrived at the apron.
00:31:29And Psychosis gonna try to make a quick cover.
00:31:31One, two.
00:31:32Hooventude saw it and stopped it.
00:31:34Boy, he was coming in the back door on that one.
00:31:36Smart move by Psychosis brain.
00:31:38Very good move.
00:31:39These four men are using their head in here.
00:31:42Yeah, many ways.
00:31:43You can tell, fans obviously,
00:31:47the pace of this match would wear men down quickly.
00:31:51And these men remarkably still have a lot to spare.
00:31:55But they've slowed down just a touch, but not much.
00:31:58Look at this.
00:32:00Fight on the floor.
00:32:02That's the move that won him the Cruiserweight belt.
00:32:09A bulldog from the top.
00:32:11Fight goes on in the back of the screen in the bottom of the floor here.
00:32:16Ray Jr. could win it here.
00:32:19Once again, split leg moonsault on the top screen.
00:32:22Now the frustration's starting to build in Ray Jr.
00:32:27And we're gonna have to build that frustration when we come back.
00:32:30After this commercial break, more low.
00:32:33Look at him, a TNT.
00:32:34He can have him now.
00:32:35Get him.
00:32:36The battle rages.
00:32:40The four corner Cruiserweight title match here live on Nitro.
00:32:44And you can see the effects of this brutal match has taken a toll on these four
00:32:49combatants, but it still won't stay down.
00:32:52I don't know what to see from that.
00:32:53A minute ago, all four were laying out.
00:32:55All four standing up.
00:33:01Ray will send in Hoobie.
00:33:03Hoobie sends Ray down.
00:33:05Meanwhile, Psychosis hangs Blitzkrieg upside down on the top.
00:33:09Ray, he's not done.
00:33:10Well, Blitzkrieg hit that apron, I believe, with that knee.
00:33:15He could be down for good, let's see.
00:33:19Hoobie.
00:33:22Hoobie.
00:33:23Suicide.
00:33:24Yeah.
00:33:25To a suicide split.
00:33:30All right.
00:33:31Come on, Frank.
00:33:35I've never seen anything like that in all my years in this book.
00:33:46That's not going on, cameraman.
00:33:48Get us out of here.
00:33:49Come on.
00:33:50Don't they care about their bodies.
00:33:53They care about being champion.
00:33:54Don't you see what it means?
00:33:56Never meant that to me.
00:33:58Not to do that.
00:33:59Climb that top rope and dive to the floor and try to wipe out three guys.
00:34:03Were you ever a champion?
00:34:04No.
00:34:05A reversal now.
00:34:06Into the corner.
00:34:07Up into the ancient hoobies and grabs the ample head of hair of psychosis.
00:34:14He perks up on the top.
00:34:16Here he comes.
00:34:17There he goes.
00:34:18Another remarkable takedown.
00:34:20And you gotta understand how long they've been wrestling and what pace they've been wrestling.
00:34:24And they sure can execute those moves.
00:34:26Phenomenal.
00:34:27Two, and Ray will just calmly drag the leg away.
00:34:31I do understand that.
00:34:32We understand that.
00:34:33We've been enduring all of this.
00:34:36This will leave you breathless.
00:34:38Look how Ray just takes a breather.
00:34:40On the back of who the two.
00:34:43One, two, two, and psychosis cuts him out of the path.
00:34:48I noticed psychosis is just laying there, motionless.
00:34:51When he heard them hit the mat, he came alive.
00:34:53He's just waiting for something to happen.
00:34:55You gotta take every breath you can.
00:34:57Oh, you aren't kidding.
00:34:58This is worse than a battle royal sometimes.
00:35:01Worse?
00:35:02I think many fans would say as good as it may be better.
00:35:05I guess worse would be your perspective.
00:35:09If you see the battle royal, you're throwing a man over the top.
00:35:11That's dangerous enough.
00:35:12Four or five guys pitching.
00:35:14But here you can win a match.
00:35:16Did you get him?
00:35:18What he did that time, Ray, as Blitzkrieg had the four corners on, or for the figure four on in this four corner match.
00:35:27A guillotine leg drop stopped Blitzkrieg.
00:35:30Here's one from Huffington.
00:35:31He could get a win.
00:35:32Come on.
00:35:33Psychosis escapes.
00:35:34What's next here?
00:35:41Ray's the only one standing.
00:35:43Look at the determination on the Cruiserweight champ's face.
00:35:50Well, it's a process to the world backbreaker.
00:35:54I'm afraid if I was Ray Jr. and in there all by myself, and everybody wanted a piece of me.
00:35:59One, two.
00:36:00No.
00:36:01Not yet.
00:36:02I think I'd have something I could grab ahold of real quick, like a foreign object.
00:36:06Standing switch by Blitzkrieg.
00:36:08Pickup.
00:36:09Huffington lands on the scene.
00:36:11A gunshot by Huffington.
00:36:13There's bodies all over the place.
00:36:18Everywhere.
00:36:19Look at him.
00:36:20Cover anybody.
00:36:21Cover somebody.
00:36:22Good move by Rice.
00:36:23Covering Blitzkrieg.
00:36:24But now, Psychosis with a desperation save, shoving Ray away from Blitzkrieg that time.
00:36:30If Psychosis was thinking as he sent Ray away, he could have gone right into the cover right there.
00:36:37What fight there is in June.
00:36:39It's a surge of energy.
00:36:43He's got it covered, but now, again, the key here is to incapacitate the other two men so you can win the match.
00:36:59Well, that's much easier said than done there, isn't it?
00:37:01Boy, it certainly is.
00:37:02And you can see they're trying to do it here, but, ow.
00:37:06He's got him now, see?
00:37:07One, two, three.
00:37:08And there was no one there to save him.
00:37:11He's gonna have it all.
00:37:16How will it end?
00:37:17What will happen?
00:37:18Will it be a mistake on one of the four men's parts, or will it just be one of the phenomenal moves with no one able to make a save?
00:37:26We can find out any moment now.
00:37:31Looked like for a moment that Blitzkrieg was gonna try a jawbreaker, but no.
00:37:37Hoobitube turned it on him.
00:37:39Ray with a sliding drum kick on Hoobitube.
00:37:41Gonna pick up Blitzkrieg.
00:37:43Midnight Psychosis.
00:37:44Still down on the left over there.
00:37:46Well, now Ray's gonna turn it on.
00:37:48Whatever you've got left, use it.
00:37:50A little bit of posing this way in the match may be a little dodged.
00:38:03Any time in the match, unless you're in control of the situation.
00:38:07And he's not here.
00:38:08There are still three warm bodies.
00:38:10Yeah, you know, we say that so much.
00:38:14How many times have we said, don't do that?
00:38:17And they still come back and win a match.
00:38:19Let's see what happens here.
00:38:20It's different when you're in there.
00:38:22Trying to run it that time, but a head scissor takeover.
00:38:26The one of the efforts that time of Hoobitube Guerrera, the Youth Warriors down.
00:38:31Psychosis over the top, one, two.
00:38:35Blitzkrieg pulls him away.
00:38:36Blitzkrieg will try the same move on Psychosis.
00:38:41Two, did he run it deep?
00:38:44No.
00:38:45He did not.
00:38:46Honey, we could be here until the start of Gator Football.
00:38:49We certainly could.
00:38:50We could spur your a few tips.
00:38:56Hook down to the top rope, Hoobitube goes up,
00:39:00gets the eight bring.
00:39:01The top rope, found its mark on the throat of the champ.
00:39:08Hoobitube says, it's my time.
00:39:10He's gonna miss a sharp kick, but Ray scouts up on the outside of the left.
00:39:15My move, that's creation.
00:39:16He had to do it.
00:39:17Watch out, my buddies.
00:39:21Well, they're stacking them up out there.
00:39:23Two at a time.
00:39:28Blitzkrieg lands on his feet.
00:39:31Canucks with a 360 round kick.
00:39:35Put him down.
00:39:40Blitzkrieg remains in the rack.
00:39:43Blitzkrieg.
00:39:44What'd he do?
00:39:46A spinning, rotating, twisting.
00:39:50Well, I saw with the ball red in the air and then it stretched down to be a human.
00:39:55Cross body splash from the top.
00:39:59And he still didn't win this thing with it.
00:40:01If you can believe that.
00:40:03Hoobitube.
00:40:04And Ray Jr., one step ahead.
00:40:14He might be here at the end of Gators football.
00:40:17What a match.
00:40:22What an effort by all four men.
00:40:25This is incredible.
00:40:27He hit the ropes.
00:40:28Did Ray.
00:40:29Ray put the brakes on.
00:40:30And Ray now just pounding away.
00:40:34Psychosis hit the top turnbuckle.
00:40:46It's all Blitzkrieg now if he wants it.
00:40:48If he can do it, you see Ray at the bottom of your screen trying to pull himself up.
00:40:54He's down now.
00:40:55He is down.
00:40:56He is down.
00:40:57Figuring an ankle that we can see from our vantage point.
00:41:00Meanwhile, Blitzkrieg, as you said, Weasel, it's all his if he wants it.
00:41:05Can he do it?
00:41:06If he haven't had him to do it.
00:41:07What will he do?
00:41:08The two men get up on the floor.
00:41:10Psychosis with Blitzkrieg face first.
00:41:14Psychosis is measuring him.
00:41:16Could be his movement is.
00:41:19No one's there to save him either.
00:41:22He's gonna win it.
00:41:23He's gonna win it.
00:41:24Two, three.
00:41:25He's down.
00:41:26Ladies and gentlemen, Psychosis has won his first.
00:41:31WCW Pujeray title.
00:41:33And as much as anything else, he won the Survivor.
00:41:37That's the only way you can say it.
00:41:39We all said Prince Psychosis moment isn't had, but really it was Psychosis.
00:41:46It was his moment.
00:41:47And we're seeing history in World Championship Wrestling live on Monday Night Drive.
00:41:52Wow, it's time for the pressing slam of the show.
00:42:00Look at this, Psychosis.
00:42:02That man right there took off that top turnbuckle.
00:42:05Drove into three men on the floor.
00:42:07Now he's the top turnbuckle again.
00:42:09Lands flush in the face of Blitzstreak.
00:42:13Turns over.
00:42:14No one there to save him.
00:42:15One, two, and the three count.
00:42:20There is your new champion, Psychosis.
00:42:23And he earned it.
00:42:24Yes, he did.
00:42:25It's our classic slam of the show.
00:42:27Wendy's classic slam of the show brought to you by Wendy's Big Hot Juicy Triple.
00:42:31This is Burger Town, pretty boy.
00:42:33Speaking of that, let's go to our own pretty boy, Minji.
00:42:37Well, thank you, Tony.
00:42:39Again, the check's in the mail.
00:42:41Just kind of clearing things up here in the ring.
00:42:43A wild one there in that big format for the cruiserweight title and new champion crowd.
00:42:48And speaking of champions, my guest at this time is the former 14-time WCW heavyweight champion of the world.
00:42:59Ladies and gentlemen, for Horseman, Rick Clare.
00:43:05Stand up, Tony.
00:43:13We're standing up because the Prez is here.
00:43:17We always do this.
00:43:19It's out of respect for who he is, for what he's meant to destroy.
00:43:24And because, you know what?
00:43:28I know why you're standing up.
00:43:30Yeah, it won't hurt if contract negotiations are done.
00:43:33We're trying to take a look at the other side of the ring here.
00:43:36Yeah.
00:43:38That's how he's in the chair's going.
00:43:41adopted.
00:44:00Accompanied by the great Arn Anderson, the Nature boy is back on campus.
00:44:06It just happens to be your favorite campus, Mr. President.
00:44:11Oh, mean!
00:44:14Oh, my God!
00:44:16Florida Gator Gene!
00:44:20Tonight, once again, whether you like it or you don't like it,
00:44:27learn to love it because the Nate Shabbat!
00:44:32And the Esports are here again.
00:44:37And we're here for one reason, because every time I come to Gainesville,
00:44:42there's 4,000 or 5,000 kids that want the Nate Shabbat to go across the street
00:44:48to the swamp because they think they can outdrink it.
00:44:52Well, whoa, whoa.
00:44:55Hello.
00:45:00So what I'm gonna do as the president of WCW is I'm gonna buy every kid in this joint a drink at the swamp that wants to go head up with me tonight.
00:45:16Wait a minute.
00:45:17Have you started a tab over there?
00:45:19Yeah.
00:45:20I'm the president of the company, and I'm buying Gainesville around the drink.
00:45:25Well, that's gonna cost you a lot of money, but apparently you've got it.
00:45:30I'm the president of the company.
00:45:33I'll do what I want to do, when I want to do it, how I want to do it, and you can ask.
00:45:40Big clicks.
00:45:41Big clicks.
00:45:42Whoa.
00:45:43Big clicks.
00:45:45It's the commish.
00:45:50We're a little top heavy here tonight, Tony.
00:45:53A little top heavy?
00:45:54A little top heavy.
00:45:55In more ways than one.
00:45:57Yes, sir.
00:45:58Commissioners, presidents.
00:46:00And-
00:46:01And-
00:46:02And-
00:46:03And you know what I'm talking about.
00:46:04And here comes Rowdy, Rowdy Piper.
00:46:06And that stopped the press short.
00:46:09And look at the face of Ric Flair.
00:46:11He does not like to be set up here on TV.
00:46:15I don't blame him.
00:46:16Who does?
00:46:17Nobody shows up.
00:46:21The president does.
00:46:27Whoa.
00:46:28The commissioner is in the house tonight, Mr. President.
00:46:33Why is it every time that the lights are shining bright on me from Double A, you gotta come out of Hollywood and try and jump on my bandwagon, huh?
00:46:47I'm the president.
00:46:48I'm the world champion.
00:46:50I'm in baseball.
00:46:52What are you doing out here on my clock?
00:46:55Rowdy Piper.
00:46:56I'll tell you what you are.
00:46:59You are fast becoming the Dennis Rodman of the WCW.
00:47:04That's what you are.
00:47:06You are a president that has gone far beyond.
00:47:10He has gone far beyond anything, any problems, any president.
00:47:15You've got cuckoos left, brother.
00:47:17We're talking sleep late in the shower too many times.
00:47:21Wee, wee, wee.
00:47:22You lost your son.
00:47:23You're still dug up in this presidency.
00:47:26You're signing papers.
00:47:28You don't even know what you're signing.
00:47:30You're hiring people.
00:47:31You're firing people.
00:47:33You're talking about buying these kids drinks.
00:47:35You're full of baloney.
00:47:37You're not gonna buy these kids nothing.
00:47:39You're gonna sneak out of this arena like you do and get on your Learjet and go back home.
00:47:45You are not fit to be president.
00:47:47Patch Adams couldn't save you.
00:47:50You are sick, Rick.
00:47:52I'm your friend.
00:47:53I'm here to help you.
00:47:54But you've got to step down as president.
00:47:57You're lost.
00:47:58You're gone.
00:47:59I see and I hear this look.
00:48:09Roddy Piper is telling Ric Flair he's out there.
00:48:15I'm the president of the company.
00:48:18I call the shot.
00:48:19No.
00:48:24No, no, no.
00:48:26I am your reality check.
00:48:28Listen.
00:48:29Talk some sensible.
00:48:30Just tell me this.
00:48:32Tell me this.
00:48:33As president.
00:48:34You saw it.
00:48:35He's in the ring.
00:48:37He takes his $600 loafers off.
00:48:40Throws them in the crowd.
00:48:41Hits Aunt Mary in the head.
00:48:43Is that how a president acts?
00:48:45Is it?
00:48:46I see him lose $3,000 worth of bags and never look back.
00:48:54He's Ric Flair.
00:48:56Wait a minute.
00:48:57You got a problem with me taking off my shoes?
00:49:00Do you get it?
00:49:05I'm the president.
00:49:06I do what I wanna do when I wanna do it.
00:49:10Did you see that problem?
00:49:12Wait, wait.
00:49:13Hang on.
00:49:14Hang on.
00:49:15You ain't heard nothing yet.
00:49:17I saw you on national TV.
00:49:22You don't have no handcuffs with you, do you?
00:49:25No.
00:49:26Okay.
00:49:27I saw you on national TV.
00:49:29Handcuff yourself to the rope.
00:49:32Take all your clothes off except for your shorts and your support hose that only Al Bundy would wear.
00:49:39Who do you think you are, President Clinton?
00:49:45I'm asking you.
00:49:46Whoa.
00:49:47Hey, hello.
00:49:48Help me here.
00:49:49Listen.
00:49:50I'm his friend.
00:49:51Listen, I've seen him with his pants off many times.
00:49:53It don't mean anything.
00:49:55That's just Ric.
00:49:56He's the president.
00:49:59Wait a minute.
00:50:01He's got Gator boxers on.
00:50:11Thanks.
00:50:12Out here.
00:50:13You got a problem with me out here?
00:50:17I do what I wanna do.
00:50:19I'm the president of company.
00:50:23If I wanna stand out here naked, I'll do it.
00:50:26You'll do it.
00:50:27I'm Ric Flair.
00:50:28I'm the president.
00:50:29I'm the man.
00:50:32I waited a long time.
00:50:33Shut up.
00:50:34I'm not finished.
00:50:35I'm the commissioner and I got something to say too.
00:50:38I did not want this stinking job.
00:50:40I did not want to do this.
00:50:42But damn it, I'm gonna do it.
00:50:44Do what?
00:50:45Mean James.
00:50:46Do what?
00:50:47Go across the street with me and have a drink.
00:50:49What are you gonna do to me?
00:50:50Hey.
00:50:51I am.
00:50:52He's lost it.
00:50:55Yeah, but I love it.
00:50:57I am Ric Flair, the president of the United States.
00:51:02No, no, no.
00:51:03WCW.
00:51:04The United States.
00:51:08The Charles Robinson.
00:51:09A little over the top.
00:51:11Listen, I didn't want it.
00:51:14Mean Gene, you read it.
00:51:17I don't wanna read it.
00:51:19I'm here to enforce it.
00:51:21I'm the commissioner.
00:51:22You read it to Mr. Flair.
00:51:24I will read it if I can have everybody's undivided attention.
00:51:28It looks like a very officious document.
00:51:31And this is from the General Court of Justice, Superior Court Division, in the competency matter of Ric Flair.
00:51:38Very quickly.
00:51:39Order.
00:51:40The court having considered the petition of Roderick Piper, on behalf of WCW, the affidavit of David Flair, supporting the incompetency of Ric Flair and being otherwise fully advised in this matter.
00:51:53It is therefore ordered that since Ric Flair is incapable of exercising rational judgment, is incapable of weighing the consequences of his act, and represents a foreseeable risk of harm to his well-being and the well-being of WCW.
00:52:12He is therefore determined to be incompetent, pursuant to statutes I-64, 65, and 35-2.
00:52:21And listen, it is further ordered that Ric Flair shall be removed from the office of the presidency of WCW.
00:52:30Incompetency.
00:52:32I'm hanging on to this.
00:52:34You're out of your mind, Piper.
00:52:36I make the rules, and right now, I'm telling you, the judge, and my kid, that paper don't exist.
00:52:43You're fired.
00:52:45You're fired.
00:52:46Whoa.
00:52:48Hang on.
00:52:49Hang on.
00:52:50There's much more in here in competency.
00:52:53First of all, that's from your kid, your own kid.
00:52:56Just a minute.
00:52:57And one more thing, I'm giving Florida back the national title from Tennessee right now.
00:53:03All right, all right, since you're in such a happy mood, I got one more thing for you.
00:53:20Something that you saw, you looked at, you didn't pay no attention to, but you signed.
00:53:27Because tonight, you fight, and you know you're gonna get.
00:53:32Who?
00:53:33Big Sexy Kevin Brown.
00:53:35You gotta be kidding me.
00:53:39You signed a Parade's data document there.
00:53:43Art Anderson passed out.
00:53:45You know you signed it?
00:53:46You think I'm afraid of Big Sexy?
00:53:49I'll kick his ass from here to Knoxville.
00:53:53Well, we'll see then.
00:53:54Yeah.
00:53:55But we're gonna see tonight.
00:53:57The last thing I'm gonna do with my clothes off is fire you.
00:54:02You're fired.
00:54:03I'm not fired.
00:54:04You are fired.
00:54:05I'm not fired.
00:54:06You're fired.
00:54:07And you know what?
00:54:08You're gonna wrestle me at Flam Marie.
00:54:09And you know what?
00:54:10If you beat me, you can rock this damn company.
00:54:12You're fired though.
00:54:13You wanna fight me?
00:54:14Yeah.
00:54:15Fire.
00:54:16You've lost your mind.
00:54:17No, there is.
00:54:18You wanna fight me?
00:54:19Then you have a fight.
00:54:20Hey, hey, hey.
00:54:21Wait a minute.
00:54:22Come here.
00:54:23You're fired, but I'm fighting you first.
00:54:26You're fired, but I'm fighting you first.
00:54:28I'm fired, but you're fighting me.
00:54:29What is it?
00:54:30You're out of your mind.
00:54:31I am done.
00:54:32What is it?
00:54:33I can't let me sort this out.
00:54:35He's fired him.
00:54:36He wants to wrestle him in Flam Marie.
00:54:38I cannot believe it.
00:54:40What a Monday Night Go.
00:54:41We're gonna be right back.
00:54:42We're gonna be right back.
00:54:43Let's go.
00:54:44Let's go.
00:54:45Let's go.
00:54:46Let's go.
00:54:47Let's go.
00:54:48Let's go.
00:54:49Let's go.
00:54:50Let's go.
00:54:51Let's go.
00:54:52Let's go.
00:54:53Let's go.
00:54:54Let's go.
00:54:55Let's go.
00:54:56You got a minute, bro?
00:54:57What's up?
00:54:58Hey, brother.
00:54:59Big Kev got a message for you.
00:55:00Yeah?
00:55:01What's that?
00:55:02He looking for you.
00:55:03Well, I don't run with Kev anymore.
00:55:04You know, I don't ride with the pack anymore.
00:55:06So handle your business with him.
00:55:07You know.
00:55:08And later on tonight, ladies and gentlemen, it's Goldberg and Diamond Dallas Page.
00:55:23But this one will be for the WCW World Heavyweight title.
00:55:28That'll be later on tonight.
00:55:29And as we've heard also, Ric Flair and Big Sexy will go at it.
00:55:33All still to come live on D&D.
00:55:38All right, fans, welcome back.
00:55:40And let me try to decipher all of this if I can before this trash can kendo stick
00:55:45match comes out here and obliterates all of us.
00:55:47Ric Flair has been now deemed incompetent and is no longer president.
00:55:52But he still fired Roddy Piper.
00:55:54But he said he'll fire him after he fights him at Slamboree when they go one-on-one,
00:55:57which Piper agreed to.
00:55:59But Ric Flair who is fired and is no longer president because he's incompetent.
00:56:03But he's fired Piper into a wrestling slamboree on May 9th.
00:56:07He will still wrestle tonight.
00:56:08And then Big Sexy Kevin Knight on this project.
00:56:11That's right.
00:56:12And in the middle of all that, he took his clothes off and found out he had
00:56:16Peter Boxer's off.
00:56:17Yeah, just another Monday night.
00:56:20Another normal Monday night.
00:56:21That's what I thought.
00:56:22That's exactly what I thought.
00:56:25That's exactly what I thought.
00:56:27Ric Flair.
00:56:30You know, I don't know.
00:56:32I've always been a staunch supporter of the press.
00:56:36But I wonder sometimes.
00:56:38You wonder?
00:56:39You wonder if he's okay if he needs some help, if he needs some medication, you know?
00:56:44I think that the incident happened with him and his son hurt him.
00:56:49You think so?
00:56:50And then losing the title hurt him and the presidency.
00:56:52You know, he's a man that's always wanted the center of attention.
00:56:55Always the man that commanded him and deserved it rightfully.
00:56:58And now, people do get threatened.
00:57:00They get sick with power.
00:57:01You know that, Tony?
00:57:02It's not happening with him, John.
00:57:05Well, I think we also need to clarify the Ric Flair-Rotty Piper match at Slamboree.
00:57:11This one is going to be for control of WCW.
00:57:14So the winner of that match is going to be in charge.
00:57:17It could be Flair, it could be Piper.
00:57:19So it's a pivotal point for WCW on the 9th of May in St. Louis.
00:57:22Here we go.
00:57:23That's Slamboree.
00:57:24Oh, look at this.
00:57:25Oh.
00:57:26Trash can against Kendall Six.
00:57:29I do know, fans, as well as I know, that trash can's gotta hurt.
00:57:36You know, it's got sharp edges after his pants.
00:57:39Of course it does.
00:57:40Just listen.
00:57:41Oh, Hax's gonna listen to him.
00:57:44Oh!
00:57:45It's been a while since we've seen Bryan Knobs.
00:57:50He looks mean or never.
00:57:51He looks as mean as always.
00:57:53What was that he walked in with just?
00:58:02Ow!
00:58:03Forget about it.
00:58:04It was something off the highway.
00:58:05Hey, we haven't seen a pit stop in I don't know when.
00:58:08Do we want to?
00:58:10There's something to be said for it.
00:58:13We just saw one.
00:58:14Ric Flair's gonna wrestle Roddy Piper and Slamboree for control of WCW.
00:58:20That is really a big moment in our history.
00:58:23And they go back a long, long way.
00:58:25There's no good blood there.
00:58:27It's all bad.
00:58:29And Ric Flair and Kevin Nash, big sexy tonight.
00:58:33DDP tonight against Goldberg.
00:58:35Wait a minute.
00:58:36I don't even know if Flair has his wrestling gear.
00:58:38He might come out in the ring and wrestle in his gait and underwear.
00:58:41That would be okay.
00:58:43Fine with me.
00:58:44There's Abe.
00:58:45There's a whole corn load of various incendiary.
00:58:49Did a camera guy get hit there?
00:58:51Come on, bring it to this.
00:58:54He sure did, and he gets back up.
00:58:56What a clue he got.
00:58:58What a program this, what a night.
00:59:01Uh-oh, bring out the hard way now.
00:59:13Just stay away from us.
00:59:15You really think they're gonna stay away from us?
00:59:19Do you really think so?
00:59:21You know they're coming over here.
00:59:23It's all part of being here, man.
00:59:25They eventually will work their way here at one point.
00:59:27The other way.
00:59:28Meanwhile-
00:59:29I mean, think of this, Tony.
00:59:31Hack is taking a heck of a beating.
00:59:33Hack's taking a heck of a beating.
00:59:34Hack's taking a heck of a beating.
00:59:35Yeah!
00:59:36Ow!
00:59:37Get him, Hack, come on!
00:59:38Come on!
00:59:39Over near the trailer load of gimmicks, Hack goes down in a heap.
00:59:43Here you go!
00:59:44Hell!
00:59:45Woo!
00:59:46Hack is just as rough and rugged.
00:59:48He's like-
00:59:49It's like he's made of steel or made of rubber.
00:59:52I mean, we've seen it so many times where-
00:59:54Oh, boy.
00:59:55Head first to that card.
00:59:56You know what?
00:59:57He said there's too about other guys.
00:59:58The more you beat on him, he seems to enjoy the like Raven.
01:00:03Well, fans, as you know, as you've been seeing for the weeks now, a ladder is very important in setting up the ring.
01:00:08And Hack has been able to find that ladder and use the ladder, and has put it now back in the ring.
01:00:13And that means there's gonna be trouble.
01:00:15Another garbage can.
01:00:20Fresh one.
01:00:21Fresh one.
01:00:22Something like a fresh garbage can in a fight.
01:00:24That's what I say.
01:00:26Hack and-
01:00:27You know what this does?
01:00:30Hurt your head.
01:00:31Well, that does.
01:00:32But this match right here, he's got a hard plastic crate.
01:00:37Bullseye on the head of Hack.
01:00:43This immediately propels Nobbs in the middle.
01:00:48What kind of debris is in there?
01:00:50It's like a plane crash.
01:00:51It propels him in the middle of this battle for hardcore supremacy in WCW.
01:00:57I don't think I'd want that title.
01:00:58Then Bam Bam Bigelow has the unofficial title up.
01:01:01What's that, a mini refrigerator?
01:01:05Can you imagine what guys got like Raven and Bam Bam and Hack, and now Brian Nobbs hacking WCW?
01:01:12As dangerous as he is and can be and always has been.
01:01:15There's something for everybody here, Brian.
01:01:17You're right.
01:01:18Including Ric Flair and his BBDs.
01:01:20He's gonna be wearing a straight jacket pretty soon.
01:01:23Why not?
01:01:24As he bends over, a knee in the buttocks.
01:01:32And that brought him down to one knee.
01:01:37Uh-oh.
01:01:38I know what we got here.
01:01:41Right on the ladder, bulldogged him.
01:01:43Yes.
01:01:44A very hard, compressed, aluminum ladder as well.
01:01:48And very rugged, rough surface.
01:01:51A very cutting surface as well.
01:01:53And what a beating.
01:01:54Look at him now.
01:01:55He's in control.
01:01:56Oh, yeah?
01:01:57You can definitely say someone's in control of this thing.
01:02:01Well, he's standing.
01:02:02The other one's on his knees.
01:02:03Yeah, for right now, he's put the table up.
01:02:06Time to take matters to the table.
01:02:10The key to the table is to beat your man to where he cannot get off the table.
01:02:17Enabling you to drop off the table.
01:02:19Man first.
01:02:20And you lose track of time there, Tony.
01:02:22You lose the count of yourself.
01:02:23Time, where is he?
01:02:25If you take another-
01:02:26They don't think they'll lose like that.
01:02:28They'll think it's Wednesday.
01:02:30Two.
01:02:31Two.
01:02:32No.
01:02:33Yes, we got a kick out.
01:02:34Near the ladder on the table.
01:02:36Through the debris.
01:02:39Which one's Abbott?
01:02:48I was gonna say, that was a Larry Curley move, but...
01:02:53I'm here for this.
01:02:58Go ahead and lock him with it.
01:03:00Why not?
01:03:01Oh.
01:03:06The girls are gonna, the girls get the kingdom stick.
01:03:10Now don't have this lady, please.
01:03:12Now she put her right on the line and get it in there.
01:03:18And then enable the hat to use that very lethal, very lethal trash can against the head of Ryan.
01:03:26Now finish not done.
01:03:28He puts the chair underneath the head of Nobbs.
01:03:32Team leg drop.
01:03:34Nowhere to go there, pal.
01:03:35Still gonna use that broken table.
01:03:40Well, one would think he could win the match with that move.
01:03:43But he's not down, he doesn't want to win the match right yet.
01:03:50Once again, it's all about being the king of extreme, the king of hardcore.
01:03:57He's leading that on that hard, aluminum ladder.
01:04:00And there is your man, Bam Bam Bigelow.
01:04:03With his arm, he goes down.
01:04:04And heck, head busts the ladder.
01:04:06As Brian Nobbs moves.
01:04:09Nobbs stumbles over with the trash can.
01:04:14One, two, in total.
01:04:18And we're out of breath and we didn't even take whack number one.
01:04:37Thank goodness.
01:04:38But that's just the beginning of this spectacular night of wrestling.
01:04:41As nasty as I wanna be.
01:04:44As nasty as I wanna be.
01:04:47That's still the cup tonight.
01:04:49Live on WCW.
01:04:51Fonday.
01:04:52Nice job.
01:04:53Or it's all going down.
01:04:54It's Ric Flair and big sexy Kevin Nagg.
01:04:57Yes, they will go one on one.
01:04:59And don't forget, Diamond Dallas Page.
01:05:02The fence.
01:05:03The world title against Mo Goldberg.
01:05:05All still to come tonight.
01:05:10Between a rock and a hard place.
01:05:12I've been there before.
01:05:13But it just seems like this is the most recent
01:05:16and the most important time in the macho man's career.
01:05:19Because the nature boy Ric Flair.
01:05:21He's going crazy.
01:05:22And he's made it impossible for me to do anything else.
01:05:25But bring in the best person to get the job done.
01:05:30Gorgeous George has had zero matches.
01:05:33Going against Charles Robinson for all the marbles.
01:05:37Gorgeous George is a beautiful girl.
01:05:39And she's got all the attributes.
01:05:41But she's had no matches.
01:05:42And now, I'm thinking that at this time, I'm bringing in the all-time greatest women's champion.
01:05:50That has never, ever, nobody has ever rose to the occasion like you have during important matches, Medusa.
01:05:57And I'm just saying right now, welcome back to the attack.
01:06:00Thank you, macho, from one grade to another.
01:06:02You know, that's something I always wanted to do, was to wrestle a man.
01:06:06When I train Gorgeous George, she'll be able to beat every man in the WCW.
01:06:11And that's another statement.
01:06:13Thank God that the cavemen woke up in WCW.
01:06:16You see, women are here.
01:06:18Women can make a statement.
01:06:20And that's why I'm here in WCW.
01:06:22To make a difference.
01:06:24I like it, Medusa.
01:06:25Thank you very much for being on the team.
01:06:27All right.
01:06:28Check it out.
