--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=-- NGW Revenge - September 15 / 2002 --=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=-- MCI Center in Washington, DC --=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=-- "Room to
Breathe" by Project Wyze played in background of a video montage highlighting
the events leading up to the main matches here tonight at NGW REVENGE. Tonight; Chris Kanyon is on the outs with the
Flock after a mistake allowed Randy Orton to upset Raven. Raven has stated that Kanyon must defeat
Orton tonight and deliver on his surprise or he will be exiled from The
Flock. The Luchadores of the
Cruiserweight Division have been in embroiled in conflict. After Psicosis was unable to beat Essa Rios,
he brought in Super Crazzy to help him in the rematch. Essa Rios and La Parka take on Psicosis and
Super Crazy, Lucha Libre Rules. Konnan
made his presence known a month ago joining the Wolfpac. Konnan looks to do the Wolfpac's dirty work
and take out Vampiro tonight.
'Dangerous' Devon Storm found himself without a partner and without
direction. His old friend, Daffney
showed up to provide that direction, the World Cruiserweight Title. Storm has gone on a streak of wins over top
cruiserweights and Rey Misterio Jr. has offered him a shot at the title
tonight. The Dudley Boyz made a bold
statement putting Kane and Raven through tables in one night. Buh Buh Ray and D-Von look to regain the
World Tag Team Titles from Raven and Kane in a Double Tables match. Brock Lesnar has been virtually unbeatable
and shown very little weakness since Chris Jericho brought this former 2-time
NCAA Heavyweight Champion into NGW.
Lesnar looks to take the next step and become the U.S. Heavyweight
Champion, that is unless 'The Human Suplex Machine' Taz makes good on his word
to choke out Brock Lesnar. The Wolfpac
has proven there is strength in numbers in their fight against Booker T. Booker refuses to stay down but one man can't
overcome the odds so Booker T will bring a partner tonight to face Kevin Nash
and Jeff Jarrett. If Booker's team loses
then Booker T can never lay a hand on the Wolfpac again. Last month at SuperClash, Rob Van Dam and
Chris Jericho were set to collide in a grudge match after RVD broke Jericho's
nose. The match was changed to a number
one contenders match. Rob Van Dam scored
the pin on Jericho but Jericho actually had his shoulder up. RVD went on later that night to unseat Scott
Steiner for the World Championship.
Chris Jericho felt he was robbed and rightfully so. Rob Van Dam has given Chris Jericho a shot at
the World Championship tonight but if Jericho loses, he has to shake Rob Van
Dam's hand. All of that and more tonight
at NGW REVENGE... We entered the
MCI Center as Joey Styles and Paul Heyman welcomed us to Revenge and thanked
everyone for ordering the event. Then
they sent us to the ring for action... Opening Match: Chris Kanyon v. Randy Orton. "Immune" by Godsmack blasted over
the speakers as Chris Kanyon headed out to the ring. Kanyon was looking really nervous and was not
his usual cocky self. Then, "Here
To Stay" by KoRn blasted over the speakers as Randy Orton made his way out
to the ring. Orton went right after
Kanyon but Kanyon ducked out of the ring.

went for a DDT but Kanyon blocked it and hit a northern lights suplex for

wrestled each other a few times now so they're very familiar with the other's
moves. The closing moments of the match
would see Kanyon hit a suplex on Orton then head up top. Kanyon came off with a flying elbowdrop for
the one ... two ... NO! Orton gets the
shoulder up. Kanyon dropped a knee on

it this time. The referee went out to
banish Vick to the back while Orton stomped away on Kanyon. Wait ... Out of the crowd ... He takes off
his hooded sweat-shirt ... Its SATURN!
Saturn is in the ring! Orton
turns around, Saturn picks up Orton and DEATH VALLEY DRIVER! Saturn puts Kanyon on top ... the referee
slides back in to count the one ... two ... THREE! Chris Kanyon gets the win over Randy Orton
but the bigger news is, that Saturn is back and he helped Kanyon! WINNER: Chris Kanyon in 10:01. Rating: ** 3/4 Afterwards,
Saturn left through the crowd while Kanyon asked Vick where he went. Vick told him that Saturn left through the
crowd. Kanyon was confused because
Saturn was supposed to come back with them to Raven. Match #2: Psicosis & Super Crazzy v. Essa Rios &
La Parka - Lucha Libre Rules. Howard
Finkel took the time to explain the Lucha Libre Rules to the fans as did Styles

the best partner that you could possibly find.
I got a partner that hates Kevin Nash with a passion. So Wolfpac, you may have knocked my ass down

big and bad enough to take some. Now can

Jericho quickly went for the Lionsault but Van Dam got the knees
up! Van Dam springs to the top and FIVE
STAR FROG SPLASH! CONNECTS! Van Dam
crawls over and makes the cover... ONE... TWO... ...THREE!
NO! NO! ONLY TWO! Jericho got the shoulder up!
How? HOW?! Somehow Jericho managed to get that shoulder up off the
canvas at the last second. The normally
confident Van Dam looked stunned. Van
Dam sprung right back up top and came off with a second FIVE STAR FROG SPLASH
but Jericho rolls out of the way!
Jericho hits the LIONSAULT!
Jericho covers... ONE... TWO... ...THRENO!
NO! NO! Van Dam kicked out of the Lionsault!
Now Jericho is in disbelief!
Where are these guys finding it?
Jericho got frustrated and headed out of the ring. Jericho's got a chair! Van Dam with a baseball slide dropkick to the
back of Jericho! Van Dam back in and
comes out with a plancha but Jericho dodges it!
Jericho rolls Van Dam back into the ring. Jericho's coming in with the chair. Van Dam springs up to his feet and VAN
DAMINATOR! Jericho is almost out of it
but he's still moving. Van Dam props
Jericho in the corner ... Van Dam's going out on the apron on the other side of
the ring, chair in hand. Van Dam ... OH
MY GOD! VAN TERMINATOR! He killed him! Van Dam pulls Jericho to the center of the
ring... ONE... TWO... ...THREE!
THREE! Rob Van Dam pulls out an
incredible move and that's what he needed to hang on to the NGW World
Championship! Rob Van Dam is still the
NGW World Champion but man, what a close one. WINNER: Rob Van Dam in 25:04. Rating: **** (Rob Van Dam retained the NGW World Championship.) After the match, Rob Van Dam celebrated with the belt a bit then noticed that Jericho was stirring. Remember, Jericho said he would shake Van Dam's hand if he lost. Rob Van Dam extended his hand to Jericho. Jericho shook his head then started to put his hand out but Van Dam stepped away and pointed to himself as the fans chanted, "R-V-D!" in unison! Chris Jericho could very well be the World Champion but not tonight as Rob Van Dam proved once again why he is the Whole F'n Show... |
