Jr. for the NGW World Cruiserweight Championship this Sunday at Summertime
Showdown but he was in here tough against Essa Rios and Low Ki'. Both Rios and Low Ki' were looking to knock
off the number one contender. The first
elimination came when Juvy went for the Running Power Bomb on Rios but Rios
countered it with a frankensteiner! Rios
headed to the top and hit the Moonsault but Low Ki kicked him right in the
face! Low Ki picked up Rios and spiked
him with the Ki Krusher for the one ... two ... THREE! (5:12)

gut then measured him for a roundhouse kick but Juvy ducked underneath, kicked
Low Ki and planted him with the Running Power Bomb for the one ... two ... THREE! Juventud Guerrera continues his momenteum
heading into his title shot against Rey Jr. WINNER: Juventud Guerrera in 8:45 Rating: ** 3/4 ["I Need A Freak" by Too $hort] Midajah walked
out of the entrance with the World Championship belt high in the air. A few moments later, the World Champion
himself 'Big Poppa Pump' Scott Steiner emerged but he wasn't alone. Steiner had a brunette by the arm. Styles quickly identified her as Rebecca, the
wife of NGW Commissioner Shawn Michaels.
Rebecca's mouth was taped shut and she was visibly shaken as Steiner
took her down to the ring. Steiner took
a microphone once in the ring. STEINER:
"Don't move a muscle, bitch!
Well look who's back in the house!
You sit your damn fat asses down and show Big Poppa Pump the proper
respect!" Shawn Michaels
quickly rushed out of the entrance with no music... STEINER:
"It's about time you got out here.
Looks like I got somethin' of yours, little man. I got your bitch and now you're my bitch." MICHAELS:
"What the hell do you want?
Leave her out of this!" STEINER:
"What do I want? I got what
I want. Well not quite, I'm thinkin' all
these people need to see the Big Bad Booty Daddy in action. They need to see what you get when you're one
of my freaks! All these hooches out here
are mesmerized by the largest arms in the world but most of them are too
disgusting to ever be one of my freaks.
I think I'm about to take what I want, I'm about to make your bitch one
of my freaks. Come on baby you been with
that little man too long, I see you lookin' at me, wondering what it'd be like
to be with a real man!" MICHAELS:
"That's enough! You're a
sick bastard!" STEINER:
"Here's the deal, baby, you give in to the Big Bad Booty Daddy,
become one my fine freaks and let me [censored] and I won't put your husband in
a wheelchair!" MICHAELS:
"Don't listen to him!" STEINER:
"You're just afraid she'll like it too much that she'll leave your
ass, little man, and become a permanent freak!" Michaels couldn't
stand it anymore and disregarded his own safety. Michaels rushed into the ring and started
drilling Steiner with punches while Rebecca ran out of the ring. After being stunned for a moment, Steiner
drilled Michaels in the gut with a knee.
Steiner grabbed HBK by the throat and backed him into the corner,
yelling threats at him. Every single NGW
official and security bolted from the back and flooded the ring, pulling
Steiner off of the Comissioner and preventing him from a further attack. Steiner has crossed yet another line and is
totally out of control... Match #2: Simon Diamond & Swinger v. Evolution. "Simon Says" by Drain STH blasted
over the speakers as Dawn Marie led her team of Simon Diamond & Swinger out
to the ring. Then,
"Intergalactic" by Beastie Boys blared over the speakers as
Evolution, Jason Jett and Nova, made their way out to the ring. Simon Diamond and Swinger were looking to
keep the ball rolling and build on their win over Sabu and Devon Storm last
week. Decent back and forth action here
between the two teams. The ending would
see Swinger send Nova into the ropes and duck down for a backdrop but Nova hit
a rocker dropper! Nova went up to the
second turnbuckle and connected with a Nova Blast for the one ... two ... THR
... Simon breaks the pin! Jason Jett
flipped in with an Afterburner to Simon!
Nova and Jett then picked up Swinger and planted him with a Double Team
Crash Landing! Nova covered Swinger for
the one ... two ... THREE! Evolution
score a big win over Simon Diamond & Swinger in this highly competitive tag
team division! WINNERS: Evolution in 5:17. Rating: * [backstage] Chris Jericho is
shown pumping up Brock Lesnar in his locker room when Eddy Guerrero enters... GUERRERO:
"Damn ése! That is one big
vato!" JERICHO:
"When you're the best, when you're larger than life, when you're
Chris Jericho you only run with the biggest and baddest." GUERRERO: "I
guess so. Tonight, me and you, homey, we
gotta team up against Stone Cold Steve Austin and Rob Van Dam." JERICHO: "Austin
[shakes his head] How many times do I have to embarass that man? How many times do I have to show him he's not
on the level of Chris Jericho? Stone
Cold, you know, I know, Brock Lesnar knows, Eddy Guerrero knows, all those
idiots in the crowd know that you can't beat Chris Jericho. The only reason I'm gonna even waste my time
beating Stone Cold again is because this time I'll get a guranteed shot at the
World Champion." GUERRERO:
"Damn straight. That RVD,
that Rob Van Dam, he must be smokin' a little somethin' funny cause he's loco
if he thinks he stands a chance against Eddy Guerrero in a 30 minute Ironman
match. Hey Brock, how many times do you
think I can beat RVD in 30 minutes?" Lesnar just
stares at Guerrero and growls. GUERRERO: "I'll
take that as a lot. See, RVD, the
question is not if I can beat you, its how many times?" JERICHO: "I
ay atleast five and I say let's wipe the floor with these jackasses
tonight." Match #3: Scotty Riggs v. Brock Lesnar. "Broken" by 12 Stones blared over
the speakers as Scotty Riggs headed out to the ring for an unenviable
position. Then, "Head Up" by
Deftones blasted over the speakers as Brock Lesnar made his way down to the
ring. Riggs went right at Lesnar with
punches and chops that didn't even faze the big man. Lesnar grabbed Riggs by the throat and threw
him into the corner then drove shoulders into the gut of Riggs. Lesnar backed up and charged in but Riggs ducked
out and Lesnar hit the turnbuckle. Riggs
came in but Lesnar grabbed Riggs, turned and dumped him with an overhead belly
to belly suplex! Lesnar picked up Riggs
and planted him with the Terminator!
Brock made the academic cover for the one-two-three! This man is unstoppable... WINNER: Brock Lesnar in 0:49. Rating: 1/4* [backstage] The Coach caught
up with Shawn Michaels in the parking garage where Michaels finished putting
his wife in a limo and sending it away... MICHAELS:
"Scott Steiner! You put your
hands on me, I'm a man, I dealt with it.
But you put your hands on my wife, that just doesn't fly on any level
with me. DO YOU KNOW WHO THE HELL I
AM?! I'm SHAWN MICHAELS and I don't lay
down for anybody! You've forced my hand,
Steiner. You're making me go back on my
word, you're making a liar out me. I said
I wasn't gonna abuse my power but I've got other choice. You dare to show your face this Sunday, I'm
gonna do something I shouldn't do, I'm gonna deal with you once and for all and
I'm gonna you wish you never put your hands on me or my wife!" Match #4: Scott Vick v. Vampiro. "(sic)" by SlipKnot blasted over
the speakers as 'Sick' Scott Vick of The Flock made his way out to the
ring. Then, "Kong At The Gates"
by The Misfits sounded over the speakers as 'The Dark Angel' Vampiro headed out
to the ring. vampiro has had his
problems with Jeff Jarrett in recent weeks but would have to concentrate on
Scott Vick here. The ending would see
Vick go for a springboard clothesline but Vampiro caught Vick and planted him
with an uranage! Vampiro headed up top
and came off with a phoenix senton but Vick rolled out of the way! Vick went for the Cure but Vampiro countered
it with a backdrop then hit a superkick for the one ... two ... THR ... NO! Vampiro sent Vick into the corner and charged
in but Vick got the feet up. Vick came
at Vampiro but Vampiro scooped up Vick, walked to the middle of the ring and
hit the Vampiro Spike for the one ... two ... THREE! Vampiro picks up a good win! WINNER: Vampiro in 4:31. Rating: * Afterwards,
Vampiro wasn't done. He grabbed a
microphone... VAMPIRO:
"Jeff Jarrett! It's time The
Chosen One met his fate. If you've got
any guts, if you're any kind of a man you'll step through the light and into
the darkness to meet your fate this Sunday!" ["Cowboy" by Kid Rock] Jeff Jarrett was
quick to respond as The Chosen One walked out of the entrance with a mic... JARRETT: "Hey
slapnuts! You want some of the Chosen
One this Sunday? You got it! But I'm gonna beat you so bad that I'll send
you back to whatever hole you crawled out of!
Choke on that, freak!" VAMPIRO: "You
know what? I'm gonna do you a
favor. Seeing as you like hitting people
with guitar's so much, I'm gonna let you come down here and bash that guitar
over my head!" JARRETT: "You
asked for it..." Jarrett came down
to the ring with his guitar. Vampiro
stood with his back to Jarrett. Jarrett
swung but the lights went out! The
lights came back on and Vampiro was gone!
But we heard his voice over the speakers, VAMPIRO: "I
don't think so! See you this Sunday,
Jarrett!" The Chosen One
was left wondering where the hell Vampiro had gone... Match #5: Taz & The Dudley Boyz v. Raven & Kane
& Chris Kanyon. "WAR

Chris Kanyon earned a shot at Taz and the U.S. Heavyweight Title last
week and he'll get that shot in six days at Summertime Showdown. Also, The Dudley Boyz put their World Tag Team
Titles on the line against Raven and Kane.
The ending of this one would see Kane go for a flying clothesline on Buh
Buh but Buh Buh ducked. Buh Buh made the
tag to D-Von! D-Von ran over and knocked
Raven off the apron. Kanyon then drilled
D-Von and Kane grabbed D-Von by the throat but Buh Buh came in and hit Kane
from behind. The Dudleyz hit a back
suplex/neckbreaker combo on Kane! D-Von
made the cover for the one ... two ... Kanyon breaks it up! Taz came in after Kanyon, sent Kanyon into

some comments from 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin.
Austin paced around then grabbed the microphone from Coach and shoved
him away. AUSTIN:
"Chris Jericho ... You bring your monster this Sunday, you bring
your cocky ass attitude, you bring every single solitary thing that you have
because you're gonna need it. You're
gonna need everything you have to be able to stand up after I get done whipping
your ass! When you run your mouth it
becomes clear to Stone Cold Steve Austin that you're runnin' scared. You're running scared because you know you've
done more then piss me off. You've done
it, Chris Jericho, you've gotten to me.
You've gotten under Stone Cold Steve Austin's skin. You pushed me, you pushed some more and you
keep pushing me. You've pushed me so far
that when I lock eyes with you, I don't see the jackass that cost me the World
Championship, I don't see the rat bastard that needed a monster to beat me,
what I see is a man I will go to the end of the earth and back just so I can
whip your ass! Chris Jericho, in six
days, you go one on one with Stone Cold, the ****'s ON! And there ain't a damn
thing you do about it and THAT's the bottom line ... 'Cause Stone Cold SAID
SO!" Match #6: Kaz Hayashi v. Rey Misterio Jr. -
Non-Title. "I Don't Mind" by
Drain STH blared over the speakers as Kaz Hayashi headed out to the ring for
our next match. Then, "Ashes To
Ashes" by Madd One blared over the speakers as the NGW World Cruiserweight
Champion, Rey Misterio Jr. made his way out to the ring. This is a non-title rematch from Hostile City
Showdown where Misterio beat Hayashi in the finals of the Cruiserweight Cup to
capture the World Cruiserweight Title.
During this match, Misterio's challenger for Summertime Showdown, 'The
Juice' Juventud Guerrera walked out and watched the match. The ending would see Kaz go for a DDT but Rey
swept out the legs and hit a legdrop low on Hayashi. Rey went out to the apron for a Springboard
Hurricanrana but Kaz dropkicked the ropes and Rey fell hard to the outside! Kaz then jumped out onto Misterio with a
Quebrada! Kaz rolled Misterio into the
ring and headed up top. Kaz came off
with the Senton Bomb but Misterio got the knees up into the spine of Kaz! Kaz struggled to his feet and Rey hit a
Misterio Rana for the one ... two ... THREE!
Rey Misterio Jr pulls out the win over Kaz Hayashi! WINNER: Rey Misterio Jr. in 9:05. Rating: *** 1/2 After the match,
Juventud Guerrera exploded into the ring after Misterio, Rey tried to whip Juvy
into the ropes but Juvy reversed it, went for a spinning backbreaker but Rey
countered it with a spinning headscissors sending Juvy to the floor. Rey bounced off the ropes to dive out but
Juvy backed off and Misterio spun around in the ropes. Juvy was pissed that his sneak attack didn't
work while Rey challenged Juvy to come get some more but Juvy walked away... Main Event: Steve Austin & Rob Van Dam v. Chris
Jericho & Eddy Guerrero. "Glass
Shatters" by Disturbed blared over the speakers as 'Stone Cold' Steve
Austin headed out to the ring first.
"Walk" by Pantera blasted over the speakers as 'The Whole F'N
Show' Rob Van Dam made his way out.
Austin and Van Dam have teamed before but have been on opposite sides of
the ring just as much if not more. Then,
"Siempre Peligroso" by Cypress Hill blared over the speakers as Eddy
Guerrero walked down the aisle but stopped short of the ring. "Break The Walls Down" by Sevendust
blasted over the speakers as 'Y2J' Chris Jericho headed out. Austin and RVD were eage for Jericho and Guerrero
to get into the ring but Jericho and Eddy stalled until one of Austin and RVD
was on the apron. The referee forced
Austin out to the apron. As he did,
Jericho and Guerrero rushed into the ring and ambushed Rob Van Dam with a
double team. Stone Cold came right in
and evened things up and the match was on.
Austin took Jericho to the floor with a big right hand then went out
after Jericho leaving Guerrero and Van Dam in the ring. It'd take a few minutes before things would
settle down into a tag team contest. As
we know, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Chris Jericho will meet once more but this
time the winner will be the Number One Contender for the World
Championship. Rob Van Dam and Eddy
Guerrero will take their feud to a new level in a 30 Minute Ironman match where
the most falls in 30 minutes wins it.
The closing moments of this tag team match would see Guerrero go for a
brain buster on Van Dam but RVD floated over and went for a german suplex but
Guerrero elbowed him off. Guerrero sent
Van Dam into the corner but RVD jumped up top and came off with a flying kick
but Guerrero pulled the referee in the way!
Guerrero nailed Van Dam low and hit a reverse neckbreaker! Eddy headed to the top and came off with the
Frog Splash! It hits! But Stone Cold came in and caught Guerrero
with a Stunner! Austin flipped off
Guerrero but Chris Jericho slid in with a steel chair and smashed Austin in the
head busting him open! Jericho covered
Austin as the dazed referee crawled over and counted the one ... two ...
THREE! Chris Jericho has scored another
pinfall over Steve Austin heading into their match this Sunday! WINNERS: Chris Jericho and Eddy Guerrero in 12:21. Rating: ** 3/4 [backstage] We cut to The
Coach as he caught up with the NGW World Champion, Scott Steiner as he was
leaving the building. Coach asked Big
Poppa Pump if he was gonna show up at Summertime Showdown... STEINER: "You
bet your ass I'll be there. Shawn
Michaels doesn't scare me, his threats don't scare me, and no matter what he
thinks he has up his sleeve, he can't stop me.
No one can. I just hope he
tries." Steiner laughed
as he got into his limo and left. What
will Shawn Michaels have in store for the World Champion this Sunday if Steiner
shows up? There's only way to find
out... ==-==-==-==-==-==-== NGW News & Notes-: ==-==-==-==-==-==-== -NGW RAGE taping results for Saturday, July 20th, 2002: Bradshaw pinned Devon Storm with the Clothesline From
