"Praise" by Sevendust played in the background of the NGW Ring
Wars opening sequence which featured a montage of various New Generation
Wrestling superstars such as; Kane, Chris Kanyon, The Dudley Boyz, Taz, Brock
Lesnar, Sabu, Eddy Guerrero, Vampiro, Raven, Jeff Jarrett, Kevin Nash, Chris
Jericho, Rob Van Dam, 'Big Poppa Pump' Scott Steiner, 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin
and more. This is New Generation Wrestling
and this is RING WARS... We entered the
arena with Joey Styles and Paul Heyman hyping up tonight's Main Event as the
NGW United States Heavyweight Champion, 'THE HUMAN SUPLEX MACHINE' TAZ teams up
with 'STONE COLD' STEVE AUSTIN to battle EDDY GUERRERO and the NGW WORLD
CHAMPION, 'BIG POPPA PUMP' SCOTT STEINER!
Plus, Jeff Jarrett and Vampiro will meet in their No Holds Barred Match,
Juventud Guerrera and Psicosis have signed to go one-on-one plus much, much
more... Opening Match: Randy Orton v. Chris Kanyon. "Pressure" by From Zero blared over
the speakers as Randy Orton headed out to the ring to make his New Generation
Wrestling debut. Then, "Immune"
by Godsmack blared over the speakers as Chris Kanyon made his way out. Kanyon was fighting back a smile as he looked
at the newcomer in the ring. Orton may
be a young rookie but he's no stranger to wrestling as he's a third generation
wrestler and the son of the legendary Cowboy Bob Orton. Kanyon seemed to be taking Orton a little
lightly in the beginning until Orton got some offense going. Kanyon showed his experience by cutting off
the offense of Orton. The ending would
see Kanyon go for a rocker dropper but Orton slipped out and rolled up Kanyon
with a small package for the one ... two ... THR ... NO! Kanyon went for a superkick but Orton ducked
it and hit a bulldog for the one ... two ... THR ... NO! NO! Kanyon got the shoulder up! Orton tried to send Kanyon into the ropes but
Kanyon reversed it and hit a shoulder lift flapjack! Kanyon picked up Orton and hit a swinging
fisherman suplex for the one ... two ... THR ... NO! Orton kicked up! Kanyon headed up top and came off with a
flying clothesline but Orton ducked, quickly went up top and came off with the
High Cross Body! Orton hits it and one!
two! THREE! ORTON WINS IT! Orton upsets Kanyon! WINNER: Randy Orton in 5:04. Rating: ** 1/2 Afterwards, Randy
Orton rolled out of the ring as Chris Kanyon got up enraged and embarassed
after losing to the newcomer! [backstage] The Coach was
standing by with NGW Commissioner, Shawn Michaels who apparently had some big
news... MICHAELS:
"Last week was a rocky week and the past couple months haven't been
the best for me personally. But that's
gonna change tonight because tonight I've got a treat for all those people out
there. I've got a huge surprise for all
of you. The surprise is on its way and I
gurantee you that when its revealed, no one will be dissapointed." Match #2: Brock Lesnar v. Faarooq. "Head Up" by Deftones blared over
the speakers as Brock Lesnar headed out to the ring. Then, "El Cu Cuy" by Coal Chambers
blasted over the speakers as Faarooq made his way out to the ring. Unlike his previous opponents, Faarooq was
much bigger, stronger, experienced and just not afraid of Brock Lesnar. Lesnar couldn't throw Faarooq around in the
beginning but when Faarooq tried to match power with Lesnar, Brock was much
stronger. The ending would see Brock go
for a military press but Faarooq blocked it and raked Lesnar's eyes twice. Faarooq then came at Lesnar with a diving
shoulderblock sending Lesnar down to a knee.
Faarooq sent Lesnar into the ropes and went for the Spinebuster but
Lesnar drilled Faarooq with a knee.
Lesnar picked up Faarooq and hit a big Terminator for the one ... two
... THREE! Brock Lesnar continues to
dominate with a huge win over Faarooq. WINNER: Brock Lesnar in 1:06. Rating: 1/4* [backstage] The Coach got
some comments from Sabu and Devon Storm, the team that will challenge Raven
& Kane for the World Tag Team Titles at SuperClash... STORM: "Funny
thing ... It's because of Raven and Kane that we came together as a team. So SuperClash couldn't get any better for
us. Not only do we get a shot at the
World Tag Team Titles but he get revenge on Raven and Kane. Raven wants everyone to feel his pain, well
Raven, pain is only a four letter word.
We're not gonna feel your pain or Kane's pain, but mark my words, you
will feel pain." The Dudley Boyz
walk up to Sabu and Devon Storm... BUH BUH:
"With all due respect, you've been a tag team for what? A few months?
We've been busted our asses together for over six years and we're not
gonna stop until put those World Tag Team Titles back where they belong, on our
shoulders." D-VON: "So if
you think you're gonna go into SuperClash without going thruogh The Dudley Boyz
then think again! Quit thinking about
Raven and Kane, and get your mind on us." STORM: "We're
not looking past you, not in the least.
I agree with you, we gotta go through the best tag team in wrestling
history, The Dudley Boyz, but believe me when I say this ... We're up to the
challenge." That tag team
match is next... Match #3: Sabu & Devon Storm v. The Dudley Boyz. "Little Crazy" by Fight blared over
the speakers as Bill Alfonso led out 'The Human Highlight Reel' Sabu and
'Dangerous' Devon Storm headed out to the ring.
Then, "Turn The Tables" by Saliva blasted over the speakers as
The Dudley Boyz made their way out to the ring.
The Dudley Boyz held onto the World Tag Team Titles for three months
until dropping them to Raven & Kane at Summertime Showdown. Buh Buh and D-Von were looking to put down
the number one contenders and possibly take their shot at Raven & Kane at
SuperClash. The ending would see Sabu go
for a frankensteiner on Buh Buh but Buh Buh countered it with a power bomb and
covered Sabu for the one ... two ... THR ... Storm breaks the count! Buh Buh and the referee forced Storm out. Buh Buh went back to pick up Sabu but Sabu
caught him with a DDT! Sabu made the tag
to Storm. Storm sent Buh Buh into the
ropes for a backdrop but Buh Buh kicked Storm in the face and hit a clothesline
then made the tag to D-Von. Buh Buh
slammed down Storm and D-Von headed up top.
Sabu came in from behind and caught Buh Buh with an inverted DDT. D-Von came off with the flying headbutt but
Storm rolled out of the way! Storm hit
the Mind Bender on D-Von for the one ... two ... THREE! Sabu & Devon Storm take a big win over
the former World Tag Team Champions! WINNERS: Sabu and Devon Storm in 6:06. Rating: ** ["Break The Walls Down" by Sevendust] Chris Jericho
slowly came through the curtain, revealing a big white cast on his nose. The cast was held on by two long strips of
white tape and looked just ridiculous.
Jericho walked down to the ring and took a microphone... JERICHO:
"First of all would please all SHUT THE HELL UP! You people should be sympathizing with Chris
Jerihco, not mocking me! How dare you
mock me! Look at me! Look at this hideous cast! I ... I ... I look like all of you ...
HORRID! Now I almost didn't come out
here tonight but I couldn't deprive all the Jericholics. Unlike all of you fat slobs who are in denial
about just how ugly you are, Chris Jericho is fully aware of how stupid this
cast looks. Chris Jericho cares about
his appearance because this face is MONEY." ["Walk" by Pantera] Chris Jericho was
cut off as 'The Whole F'N Show' Rob Van Dam walked down to the ring in street
clothes. JERICHO: "What
the hell are you doing out here? Haven't
you done enough already? LOOK AT
ME! Look at what you've done!" VAN DAM:
"That's why I came out here, to take a look at my work. What'd you say people? I say Chris Jericho looks a lot better with his
face covered up." JERICHO: "You
jackass! JACKASS! JACKASS! JACKASS! I hate you, you son of a bitch! I am gonna make you pay for this!" Rob Van Dam steps
up into Chris Jericho's face... VAN DAM: "I
broke your nose without even trying, do you really wanna piss me off? Do you really wanna see what I can do to you
when I'm trying?" JERICHO:
"You're right, how about we put all of this behind us? It was a mistake, it happens. Put 'er there Rob..." Jericho extends
his hand out but Van Dam just shakes his head, seeing through Jericho's phony
apology. Quickly, Jericho's motives
emerged as BROCK LESNAR hit the ring!
Van Dam turned around but it was too late as Lesnar grabbed him by the
throat with two hands and threw him into the corner. Lesnar drove shoulders into RVD's midsection
then pulled him out and leveled RVD with a lariat. Lesnar picked up Van Dam and drilled him with
a Sprial Bomb! Jericho laughed then paintbrushed
RVD, pointing to his broken nose then leaving with Brock Lesnar. Rob Van Dam has been dismantled... Match #4: Juventud Guerrera v. Psicosis. The winner of this match will go onto
SuperClash to challenge Rey Misterio Jr. for the NGW World Cruiserweight
Title. "Size 'Em Up" by Big L
blared over the speakers as 'The Juice' Juventud Guerrera made his way out to
the ring. Then, "Loco" by Coal
Chamber blasted over the speakers as 'Nicho El Millionaro' Psicosis headed out
to the ring. Juvy and Psicosis seemed to
be attempting to form an alliance over the past couple weeks but both attempts
ended in miscommunications and losses to Rey Misterio Jr. The ending would see Psicosis go for an
inverted suplex but Juvy flipped over onto his feet and hit a german suplex for
the one ... two ... THR ... NO! Juvy
placed Psicosis on the top rope, went out to the apron and came in with a
springboard frankensteiner on Psicosis!
Juvy positioned Psicosis then went up top and came off with a 450 Splash
but Psicosis rolled out of the way!
Psicosis slammed down Juvy, went up top and hit a Cancun Tornado
Senton! Psicosis covered for the one ...
two ... THR ... NO! Psicosis hit a
wheelbarrow suplex then headed back up top.
Psicosis came off with the Guillotine Legdrop but Juvy rolled out of the
way! Juvy pulled Psicosis in for the
Running Power Bomb but Psicosis dropped out!
Psicosis went for a falcon arrow but Juvy blocked it and hit a fisherman
buster for the one ... two ... THREE!
Juventud Guerrera pulls it out over Psicosis to get another shot at Rey
Jr. WINNER: Juventud Guerrera in 10:08. Rating: *** 3/4 [backstage] The Coach got
some comments from the NGW World Champion, 'Big Poppa Pump' Scott Steiner... STEINER: "All
is right in the world ... All is right in New Generation Wrestling because Big
Poppa Pump is still the World Champion.
Shawn Michaels tried to screw me outta the title but he couldn't get the
job done. In a way, I was happy with all
that went down because atleast in Kevin Nash I got somebody new to hurt. Someone new to break and someone new to
destroy. But at SuperClash, its the same
old, same old, Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Stone Cold, when are you gonna just quit? You tried once, I beat you. You tried again. I beat you.
Then you tried once more, and once again you went down to the largest
arms in the world! I want some
competition! Stone Cold, you are no
competition for a genetic freak. Its
like a broken record, at SuperClash, I will beat Stone Cold Steve Austin
again." Match #5: Jeff Jarrett v. Vampiro - No Holds Barred. "Cowboy" by Kid Rock blared over
the speakers as 'The Chosen One' Jeff Jarrett headed out of the entrance with
his guitar in hand. A referee came out
of the entrance and took the guitar away from Jarrett. That was the deal last week, Jarrett would
leave the guitar in the back. Jarrett
was pissed but headed down to the ring anyways.
Then, "Kong At The Gates" by The Misfits sounded over the
speakers as 'The Dark Angel' Vampiro made his way out to the ring. Vampiro went right at Jarrett but Jarrett
ducked out of the ring, slowing things down.
Jarrett came back in and scored with an early cheap shot to take over on
Vampiro. Vampiro soon came back and the
fight was on. These two rivals slugged
it out in a back and forth brawl. The
ending would see Vampiro head up top for a phoenix senton but Jarrett caught up
to him, went up and hit a belly-to-back superplex for the one ... two ... THR
... NO! Jarrett hit a single arm DDT on
Vampiro for 2 3/4! Jarrett then went for
a piledriver but Vampiro countered it with a backdrop sending Jarrett over the
top to the outside! Vamprio was down and
out on the inside. Jarrett went under
the ring and pulled out a guitar then turned his back to the ring. Vampiro came through the ropes, Jarrett
turned and blasted Vampiro in the head with the guitar! Jarrett slid in and covered Vampiro for the
one ... two ... THREE! Damn that Jeff
Jarrett! What a sneaky bastard! WINNER: Jeff Jarrett in 7:41. Rating: ** 1/2 [backstage] We cut out to the
parking garage as a white limousine pulled up to the arena. Who's in the limo? Could that have something to do with Shawn
Michaels' surprise? Main Event: Scott Steiner & Eddy Guerrero v. Taz
& Steve Austin. "I Need A
Freak" by Too $hort blared over the speakers as the NGW World Champion, 'Big
Poppa Pump' Scott Steiner headed out to the ring. "Siempre Peligroso" by Cypress Hill
brought Eddy Guerrero down to the ring.
Then, "WAR MACHINE" blasted over the speakers as the NGW
United States Heavyweight Champion, 'The Human Suplex Machine' Taz walked
out. "Glass Shatters" by
Disturbed blared over the speakers as 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin made his way
out. Scott Steiner will defend the World
Championship against Stone Cold Steve Austin at SuperClash while Taz and Eddy
Guerrero were on opposite sides of a tag team match last week and have an
ongoing issue. Steiner and Guerrero
worked a little better as a team then Austin and Taz as Austin and Taz both
wanted to do it all on their own. The
closing moments of the match would see Austin go for a Thesz Press on Steiner
but Steiner countered it with a belly to belly suplex for two. Steiner took Austin up top and hit a super
samoan drop for the one ... two ... THR ... Taz breaks it up! Steiner sent Austin into the ropes but this
time Austin hit the Thesz Press and hammered on Steiner. Austin picked up Steiner and hit a Stun Gun
for the one ... two ... THR ... Guerrero breaks it up! Steiner caught Austin with a full nelson bomb
then made the tag to Guerrero. Guerrero
tried to send Austin into the ropes, Austin reversed it, Guerrero ducked a
clothesline then came off with a leg lariat!
Guerrero tried a brain buster but Austin blocked it and hit a vertical
suplex then made the tag to Taz. Taz
came in and hit a Hardway Tazplex on Guerrero for the one ... two ... THR ...
Steiner breaks it up! That brought in
Stone Cold. Austin peppered Steiner with
rights then sent him into the ropes. Steiner
came off with a Steinerline but Austin ducked and Steiner caught the
referee! Austin then knocked Steiner out
of the ring with a clothesline. Guerrero
drilled Austin low then Taz went for the Tazmission but Guerrero caught him
with a low back kick. Steiner grabbed
the lead pipe and came back in. Steiner
went to nail Austin but Austin ducked and grabbed the pipe away. Austin swung at Steiner but Steiner ducked
and Austin drilled Taz! Steiner then
crushed Austin with a Steinerline!
Guerrero went to the top and came off with the Frog Splash on Taz! The referee crawled over and counted the one
... two ... THREE! Eddy Guerrero picks
up the pin on Taz after an errant lead pipe shot from Stone Cold! WINNERS: Scott Steiner and Eddy Guerrero in 10:54. Rating: *** We returned from
our final break... ["Oh! Oh! Shawn!"] The NGW
Commissioner, 'The Heartbreak Kid' Shawn Michaels headed out to the ring
looking to be in much better spirits then we've seen him in recent weeks. Michaels took the microphone... MICHAELS:
"Its been a rough few weeks but things are changing. I'll admit, I got in over my head with Scott
Steiner and I'll be leaving Big Poppa Pump to Stone Cold Steve Austin because
Stone doesn't need or would want my help.
Now let's get to the big surprise for tonight. I'm committed to New Generation Wrestling and
committed to expanding this company and making it the best that it can be. That means bringing in the best talent that I
can find and that's what I've done. I've
signed one of the biggest names in wrestling and he's here tonight. So..." ["Wolfpac Theme"] Shawn Michaels was
cut off as 'Big Sexy' Kevin Nash walked out of the entrance. Michaels seemed a little confused as the big
man walked down to the ring and stepped over the top rope looking to be in a
foul mood. Nash had a microphone... MICHAELS:
"Whatever this is, can't it wait?" NASH: "Hell
no it can't wait! You want a
surprise? You all want a surprise? I'll give you a damn surprise. Shawn, you used to have balls but now you're
exactly what Scott Steiner said you were, you're a big pussy! Yeah that's right, you're a goddamn
pussy! The old Shawn Michaels would
never have caved in to the Board of Directors.
The old Shawn Michaels would've said to hell with them but you? You're a joke! Now instead of lighting the world on fire,
not giving a damn about anyone or anything, turning this business on its ear,
you'll do anything to hold onto your job as Commissioner. Yeah, you've gotta be the Comissioner because
without that job, you wouldn't be on television because nobody really gives a
**** about Shawn Michaels anymore!
You're done, you can't wrestle but you're ego won't let you sit at home
so you've turned into everything we rebelled against. I should be the World Champion but I'm not
because you're ego wouldn't allow you to stand up for your friend! So I'm gonna do you a favor, Shawn, I'm gonna
send you home for good before you turn into more of a pussy then you are right
now!" Kevin Nash
drilled Michaels with a forearm then pulled him in for the Jacknife Powerbomb
when... ["Can You Dig It? SUCKA!"] WHAT THE?! BOOKER T came out of the entrance with a
microphone and headed down towards the ring.
Booker T must be the surprise, the man Shawn Michaels signed... BOOKER: "Back
the hell up off him, big man!" Booker slid into
the ring and pulled Shawn Michaels away from Kevin Nash. Michaels rolled out of the ring to the
outside while Booker T stepped up in Nash's face. NASH:
"What're you thinkin' getting in my face? This doesn't involve you." BOOKER: "It
does involve me cause you're stepping in on my time. That man right there gave me a job. He gave you a job and he even put his ass on
the line for you. It's not his fault,
you blew your shot at the World Championship.
You're big, you're mad, you're pissed off and you wanna take it out on
somebody. Why don't you take it out on
Booker T, sucka?" NASH: "Ok,
ok, this was supposed to be Booker T's big debut. You don't want your first appearance in NGW
to be your last, do ya? Sucka?" BOOKER: "Save
the drama for yo mama, and let's get it on like a neckbone, SUCKA!" Booker and Nash
started trading right hands. Nash kneed
Booker then sent him into the ropes but Booker came off with a big Harlem
Sidekick sending Nash through the ropes and out of the ring! Booker's music hit as Nash backed off. Shawn Michaels slid back into the ring and
shook hands with Booker T then raised his hand as the show came to a
close. BOOKER T is in NGW! ==-==-==-==-==-==-== NGW News & Notes-: ==-==-==-==-==-==-== -NGW RAGE taping results for Saturday, August 3rd, 2002: Essa Rios pinned Kaz Hayashi with the Moonsault in 7:41. Rating: ** 3/4 Evan Karagias and Jamie Knoble defeated Evolution when
