-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==- NGW Ring Wars - September 16 / 2002 -==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==- We opened up with
with a short video package of stills from last night's NGW Revenge showing
Scott Steiner's return as Booker T's tag team partner but it was all a setup as
Steiner joined the Wolfpac. Rob Van Dam
and Chris Jericho tore down the house over the World Championship. It took a Van Daminator and a Van Terminator
to put Chris Jericho down for the count...
"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, Randy Orton, The Dudley Boyz,
Taz, Brock Lesnar, Eddy Guerrero, Vampiro, Raven, Jeff Jarrett, Kevin Nash,
Chris Jericho, Rob Van Dam, Booker T, 'Big Poppa Pump' Scott Steiner and
more. This is New Generation Wrestling
and this is RING WARS... We entered the
arena with Joey Styles and Paul Heyman hyping up the night's show which will feature
a rematch for the WORLD CRUISERWEIGHT TITLE as new champion, 'DANGEROUS' DEVON
STORM defends against old champion, REY MISTERIO JR. Stay tuned for that but first we got to the
ring for the World Champion... ["Walk" by Pantera] The NGW World
Champion, 'The Whole F'n Show' Rob Van Dam headed out to the ring. RVD was looking a little sore after last
night but is always in good spririts.
Van Dam took the microphone... VAN DAM: "You
know, last night was a great match, but would you expect anything less from
R-V-D? But that was las..." ["WAR MACHINE"] The NGW U.S.
Heavyweight Champion, 'The Human Suplex Machine' Taz walked out of the
entrance, without his belt, interupting Rob Van Dam. Taz walked right into the ring and stood,
looking at Van Dam. Taz pulled the towel
from over his head and threw it in Van Dam's face then started pounding Van Dam
with stiff clubbing blows to the head.
Taz spins Van Dam around and TAZMISSION!
Van Dam was caught off guard and he's trapped! Taz choked the life out of Van Dam then went
out of the ring. Why has Taz attacked
Van Dam? Taz went under the ring and
grabbed a table, sliding it into the ring.
Taz came back in and threw Van Dam with a Hardway Tazplex straight onto
his head! Van Dam is out of it. Taz set up the table then picked up Rob Van
Dam ... TAZMISSION! Taz locked him back
in the Tazmi ... OH MY GOD! OH ... MY ... GOD!
TAZMISSION-PLEX THROUGH THE TABLE!
HOLY ****! Rob Van Dam is
crumpled on the mat. Medics and
officials are racing out. Taz just rolls his shoulders and walks out of the
ring to the back. We went quickly to a
break. We returned from
the break to see a replay of Taz's unprovoked, vicious assault of the World
Champion Rob Van Dam. Taz ambushed Van
Dam for no good reason, choked him out, dumped him on his head once then left
him a crumpled mess with a Tazmission Plex through a table. We returned live outside the arena to see
medics carefully loading Van Dam into an ambulance. He could have a broken neck and for what? What is Taz's problem with Rob Van Dam? We then cut to a shot of Taz walking right
out of the arena during the break.
Styles tried to compose himself while Heyman was half concerned for Van
Dam and half praising Taz. Styles
informed us that tonight 'The Prototype' John Cena will debut, Raven and Kane
will face Randy Orton and Goldust in non-title action, Devon Storm defends
against Rey Misterio Jr. and the Wolfpac is expected to be in the house... (1) The Dudley Boyz v. Jung Dragons. "Turn The
Tables" by Saliva blasted over the speakers as The Dudley Boyz headed out
to the ring. Buh Buh Ray and D-Von were
looking a little sore and a lot pissed off after not being able to take the
World Tag Team Titles last night. Then,
"I Don't Mind" by Drain STH blared over the speakers as the Jung
Dragons, Kaz Hayashi and Yang, made their way out to the ring. The Jung Dragons were looking to use The
Dudleyz rage against them and get an upset win.
The ending would see D-Von hit a side suplex on Yang then make the tag
to Buh Buh. Buh Buh slammed down Yang
and D-Von went up top for the headbutt but Kaz came in and kicked Buh Buh in
the back of the head. Yang kipped up and
crotched D-Von up top. Yang and Kaz went
up for double superplex but Buh Buh came over, grabbed Kaz and hit a super
bomb! D-Von shoved Yang down to the
canvas. D-Von got down and as Yang
staggered up the The Dudleyz hit the 3D for the one ... two ... THREE! The Dudley Boyz win but they don't look like
they're gonna be satisfied until they've got the World Tag Team Titles. WINNERS: The Dudley Boyz in 5:03. Rating: ** The Coach was
standing by backstage with the newest NGW superstar, 'The Prototype' John Cena
for some comments before his debut match tonight... CENA: "All
the hype surrounding my debut has been great.
It's flattering to think that a company like New Generation Wrestling,
with the amount of great wrestlers that are here, have that much confidence in
my ability. Now a lot of people, they
wanna be in that top spot so they can get all the perks that go with it. I didn't come here for the money. I came here to get to the top by being a
better athlete then my opponent and being a better wrestler." Eddy Guerrero
walked up to Cena in street clothes... COACH: "Eddy
Guerrero, what'd you want? You don't
have a match scheduled for tonight." GUERRERO:
"That's right, man. And what
the hell is the deal with that? You know
the guy that just got sent to the hospital?
RVD? The World Champion? I've beat that punk a few times in the past
few months, holmes. So where's my title
shot? I don't even get a title shot, I
get pushed aside. Eddy Guerrero is
pushed aside for the past month and for who?
For this guy?" CENA: "I
didn't come here to listen to your problems." GUERRERO:
"Orale, do you know who you're talking to, ese? I hear you want to be the best wrestler in
NGW? You can't even lace my boots." CENA: "I got
a match in just a few minutes but I'll face you anywhere, anytime and let's see
what kind of a wrestler you really are." GUERRERO:
"That sounds like a challenge, ese.
If it is, you can take your challenges somewhere else, man. You gotta prove yourself before you can get
in the ring with Eddy Guerrero." Eddy Guerrero
walked away while Cena just shook his head.. (2) Simon Diamond v. John Cena. "Simon
Says" by Drain STH blared over the speakers as Dawn Marie led Simon
Diamond out to the ring for our next match.
Then, "More Human Than Human (NIN Remix)" by White Zombie blasted
over the speakers as 'The Prototype' John Cena walked out to the ring, making
his NGW debut. After weeks of videos
hyping him up, all John Cena wants is his chance to make a name for himself
through his work. Cena was in there
against a ring veteran in Simon Diamond.
Cena showed great power and speed and the crowd really seemed to take to
him. The ending would see Cena climb up
and punch away on Simon in the corner.
Simon walked out with Cena but Cena blocked an atomic drop, sent Simon
into the corner and came in with a big splash.
Cena came in with another one but Simon moved and cradled up Cena with
two feet on the ropes for the one! Two! NO! Cena kicked out! Simon went for the Simonizer but Cena blocked
it and hit a DDT for the one ... two ... THR ... NO! Cena picked up Diamond and went for an irish
whip but Simon reversed it. Cena ran
over Simon with a clothesline then picked him up and planted him with the
Proto-Bomb for the one ... two ... THREE!
John Cena has arrived in NGW with an impressive win. WINNER: John Cena in 4:43. Rating: ** We headed out to
the parking lot where a black limo pulled up and out stepped Konnan, Jeff
Jarrett and Kevin Nash. Nash was
questioning Jarrett why Steiner didn't come with them. Jarrett explained that Steiner gets a little
carried away with his 'freaks' but he'll be here... ["Come Out And Play" by Offspring] We returned to
the ring as Raven, Kane, Chris Kanyon and 'Sick' Scott Vick all walked out of
the entrance. They headed down to the ring
where Raven took the microphone... RAVEN: "Last
night, people paid for the indignities that we have suffered. The Dudley Boyz
felt the wrath of my retribution and Brock Lesnar felt Kane's wrath. Why?
You ask. Why must we leave such
carnage? For too long, we have all felt
pain but now, others will feel OUR pain!
If you cut us, do we not bleed?
If you humor us, do we not laugh?
If you poison us, do we not die?
And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? We had our revenge last night. The Dudley Boyz were not only beaten but left
in shards of their very own tables. And
then Brock Lesnar, the man the P.R. department decides to make into a monster,
was brought down to size by the real monster around here, Kane. Kane has been overlooked for too long. Is it because he wears a mask? He doesn't wear that mask because he cares
what you think of him. He wears it as a
symbol. A symbol of the countless years
of torture he endured from people like all of you. Brock Lesnar may be an animal but last night,
he found out that in this jungle, Kane is king." Chris Kanyon
grabbed a microphone... KANYON: "What
about me? What about Kanyon? Didn't I do it last night, boss? Not only did I beat that rookie, Randy Orton
but I brought Saturn back! I brought him
back to the Flock!" RAVEN: "Where
is he? Where is Saturn? If he's back in the Flock then why did he
keep leaving through the crowd last night?" ["Beautiful People" by Marilyn Manson] Saturn walked out
of the entrance in jeans and a sweat shirt, looking very grungy. Saturn walked into the ring and took Kanyon's
microphone... SATURN:
"Raven, I'm here. I wanted
to wait and share my revelations with the entire world. When you beat me, when you sent me into unemployment,
it all became clear. I am nothing
without you, Raven. All these fans, they
didn't think twice about me when I was gone.
I made a mistake and I tried to be something I'm not. I've seen the light and I need you
Raven. I need the Flock. Raven, I pledge my allegiance not to the
United States of America, I pledge it to you." RAVEN:
"Saturn, that's what I've been waiting to hear for months. Finally you have come around but how can I
trust you? How do I know you're not
trying to screw me?" SATURN: "I'll
do anything to prove myself." RAVEN: "You
can start by wrestling on The Flock's behalf tonight against ... Brock
Lesnar!" Kane grabs
Saturn's mic... KANE: "I WANT
LESNAR!" RAVEN: "In
time, Kane, in time. We've got a tag
match tonight against Randy Orton and Goldust.
Saturn, you prove yourself tonight and you can return home to The
Flock. Quote the Raven, NEVERMORE!" (3) Psicosis v. Low Ki'. "Loco"
by Coal Chamber blasted over the speakers as 'Nicho El Millionaro' Psicosis
headed out to the ring. Psicosis was on
the winning side of last night's Lucha Libre tag team match but he can't be at
100% after the beating those four luchadores laid into each other last night. Then, "Boom" by Soulfy blared over
the speakers as Low Ki' made his way out to the ring. Low Ki' is becoming quite popular with his
unforgiving style in the ring and his unshakeable focus. The ending would see Psicosis send Low Ki'
into the ropes, hit a big back drop then a spinning leg lariat for two. Psicosis sent Low Ki' into the corner and
charged in but Low Ki backdropped Psicosis out to the apron. Low Ki went for a kick to the head but
Psicosis ducked and slammed Ki's head down to the mat. Psicosis came in and went for a falcon arrow
but Ki kicked him in the gut then went for a frankensteiner but Psicosis
countered with a power bomb for the one ... two ... THR ... NO! Psicosis slammed down Low Ki and headed up
top ... Guillotine Legdrop! No! Low Ki
rolls out of the way, measures Psicosis and kicks him right in the head! Psicosis is out! Low Ki covers ... one ... two ... THR ...
NO! Psicosis got the shoulder up! Low Ki picked up Psicosis for the Ki Krusher
but Psicosis blocks it and falcon arrow!
ONE! TWO! THR! NO! Ki kicked out again!
Psicosis was frustrated and went for another falcon arrow but Low Ki
blocks it and KI KRUSHER! Low Ki covers
... one ... two ... THREE! Big win for
Low Ki' over Psicosis as he climbs near the top of the Cruiserweight Division. WINNER: Low Ki' in 9:22. Rating: *** 1/4 We headed backstage where Randy Orton and
Goldust were shown talking about teaming up tonight... GOLDUST:
"Look kid, I know all too well the pressure of having people
compare you to your father. It can
really do a number on a person. Look at
me. I mean you try being the son of the
[goes into a Dusty voice] AHHHMERICAN
DWEEEM DUSSSTY RHODES! Behbe, you try
bein' the fruit of the those big loins, behbe.
You're like a bull in da woods out there when the Dweem is your
daddy." While Goldust was
doing his impersonation, Dusty Rhodes had walked up behind Goldust. Rhodes tapped his son on the shoulder. GOLDUST:
"Well, well, well. We meet
again, father." DUSTY:
"Dustin, behbe, I just came here tonight cause I'm so excited that
you're back on TV if you know what I'm talkin' about. You're back on primetime television, in
color, behbe and you're not goin' around with bad intentions. Dis thang right here tonight, dis tag team
match, if you weeel, its gonna be a rag taggin' situation. This Randy Orton right here, he's a diamond
in the rough, behbe, I gurantee you're gonna be a big sucess, kid. I can see you got the fire in your belly
welly. Let me ask you a question, Randy,
are you goin' to the pay windah tonight?" ORTON: "Uhh ... yes." DUSTY: "I
said are you goin' to the pay windah tonight?!" ORTON:
"YES!" DUSTY: "Then
put ya dukes up and you two go take care of that devilish Raven and Kane. Show 'em who bad now? Who be bad now? (4) Raven & Kane (c) v. Randy Orton & Goldust -
Non-Title. "Come Out
And Play" by Offspring blared over the speakers as the NGW World Tag Team
Champions, Raven and Kane headed out to the ring for non-title action. Raven and Kane almost dropped the titles last
night but Saturn's involvement combined with Kane's power kept the gold around
their waist. Then, "Here To
Stay" by KoRn blared over the speakers as Randy Orton and Goldust made
their way out to the ring. The Big
Dust's speech seemed to fire up Orton and Goldust and they took the fight to
the champs. The ending would see Orton
and Raven trading punches. Orton got the
better then caught Raven in a powerslam but Kane broke up the count. Orton tried to send Raven into the corner but
Raven reversed it and made the tag to Kane.
Kane choked Orton in the corner then charged in but Orton moved then
drilled Kane with a dropkick. Orton
quickly went up top and came off with the Frog Press but Kane caught him. Goldust came in and chopblocked Kane's
knees! Orton fell on top for the one ...
two ... NO! Kane kicked out Orton made the tag to Goldust. Goldust drilled Kane with a bulldog. Raven came in but Goldust caught him with a
right hand then sent Raven into the corner.
Goldust set up Raven for a Shattered Dreams kick! Goldust backed across the ring and went to
run in but Kane stepped in front of him, grabbing Goldust by the throat and
Choke Slam! Kane covers, Raven ties up
Orton, one ... two ... THREE! Raven &
Kane pick up another win. WINNERS: Raven and Kane in 5:28. Rating: * We returned to
ringside where we saw another replay of Taz putting Rob Van Dam through the
table with the Tazmission-Plex. Rob Van
Dam was stretchered out and taken to a local hospital. The doctors say his neck doesn't appear to be
broken but Van Dam is currently undergoing a battery of tests and is in extreme
pain. Styles said that they'd try to get
RVD via satellite next week... We cut to a shot
of Brock Lesnar walking through the halls looking more intense then ever. Brock Lesnar faces Saturn, next... (5) Brock Lesnar v. Saturn. "Head
Up" by Deftones blasted over the speakers as Brock Lesnar walked out to
the ring, still steaming after what Kane did to him last night. What Kane did would probably send a normal
man to the hospital but all it seemed to do was make Brock angry. "Beautiful People" by Marilyn
Manson blasted over the speakers as Saturn headed out to the ring. Raven forced Saturn into this match to make
him prove himself to The Flock. Saturn
tried to hit and move but soon fell prey to Lesnar's power. Lesnar proceeded to beat the stuffing out of
Saturn. The ending would see Lesnar hit
a gutwrench suplex and drop an elbow.
Lesnar dropped another elbow but Saturn moved. Saturn connected with a savate kick then
quickly headed up top and came off with a flying elbowdrop but Lesnar
moved. Lesnar picked up Saturn and hit
the Terminator for the one ... two .... THREE!
Welcome back, Saturn. WINNER: Brock Lesnar in 4:30. Rating: * 3/4 After the match,
Kane walked down to the ring. Lesnar
challenged him to come in. Kane stepped
over the top rope and the two monsters went face to face. Lesnar drilled Kane with a right hand sending
him staggering backwards. Kane fired
back. Lesnar responded. NGW officials and security flooded the ring
to break these two monsters up before they destroy each other... We cut out to the
parking lot again where another black limousine had arrived and this time, 'Big
Poppa Pump' Scott Steiner stepped out.
Scott Steiner is back and in the building. We should hear from the Wolfpac after our
next match... (6) Rey Misterio Jr. v. Devon Storm (c) - NGW World
Cruiserweight Title. "Ashes To
Ashes" by Madd One blared over the speakers as Rey Misterio Jr. headed out
to the ring. Misterio found himself in
an unfamiliar position, walking in for the first time as the challenger for the
World Cruiserweight Title. Then,
"Terrible Lie" by Nine Inch Nails blasted over the speakers as
Daffney brought out the NGW World Cruiserweight Champion, 'Dangerous' Devon
Storm headed out to the ring. Misterio
gave Storm the shot last night, Storm took advantage and won the title and is
returning the favor tonight by giving Misterio an immediate rematch. The intensity was turned up another notch
after last night's great match and tonight's was an even better match. The closing moments of the match would see
Storm send Misterio into the ropes but Rey hit a Misterio Bulldog! Rey motioned to the crowd and headed out to
the apron. Rey came in with the Springboard
Hurricanrana! Storm hangs on ... power
bomb! No! Rey frankensteiners Storm to the floor! Both men were down and out for a bit. Rey beat Storm to his feet and rolled back
into the ring. Storm got up on the apron
and Misterio goes to suplex him in ... Storm floats over ... hooks Misterio and
Mind Bender! Storm makes the cover on
Misterio ... one ... two ... THREE!
'Dangerous' Devon Storm squeaks out another tough win and holds on to
the World Cruiserweight Title! WINNER: Devon Storm in 14:05. Rating: **** 1/4 (Devon Storm retained the NGW World Cruiserweight Title.) We returned to
the ring... ["Don't Turn Your Back"] The Wolfpac; 'Big
Sexy' Kevin Nash, 'The Chosen One' Jeff Jarrett, 'K-Dawg' Konnan and 'Big Poppa
Pump' Scott Steiner all walked out of the entrance and down to the ring where
Steiner took the microphone... STEINER: "Big
Poppa Pump is back the house! Its been
about a month since Rob Van Dam stole my World Championship but since RVD looks
to be out of comission, I'll move on to a different subject. About two weeks ago, I'm kicking back with my
freaks like only the Big Bad Booty Daddy can when the phone rings. It's Booker T. Booker wants to know if Big Poppa Pump will
come back and take out Kevin Nash and the Wolfpac. Booker T, I never lied to you. I told you that I hate Kevin Nash. That wasn't a lie..." All of a sudden,
Jeff Jarrett and Konnan jump Kevin Nash!
Steiner joined in drilling Nash with forearms to the face. Nash tried to fight them off but it was a
three-on-one assault. The three pummeled
down Nash and Steiner locked him in the Steiner Recliner! They threw Nash out of the ring and Nash
clutched his knee in pain. We took a quick
commercial break, the last of the night, then returned to see footage of during
the break as medics helped Kevin Nash to the back after the attack. The Wolfpac remained in the ring... STEINER:
"Kevin Nash, you can kiss my ass and you can get used to watching
the Wolfpac at home. Its all real
simple. Jeff Jarrett's been phoning me
non-stop for weeks, trying to get me to join the Wolfpac. I told Jeff that would be cool on one
condition. It's either Scott Steiner or
Kevin Nash. Its obvious what choice
Jarrett and Konnan made. The right
choice. Who would you rather want
leading the Wolfpac? The answer was
obvious." JARRETT: "You
see, Kevin Nash, he wass too soft. He
was too easy. It didn't matter what he
said, he was still catering to all of you morons out there. He was still trying to be cool. Well guess what, Nash? Steiner's in and you're out. This is the Wolfpac ... This is the group
that is going to hold this company by its balls and Scott Steiner is the man
that can take the Wolfpac to heights it would never have been able to reach
with Nash at the helm." STEINER:
"Take a look at the way Booker T was dealt with. Nash made a stipulation that if Booker T lost
last night, he could never deal with the Wolfpac again. No, that's not how its gonna go down with Big
Poppa Pump runnin' the show. That
stipulation is out the window. Booker T,
you come try and deal with the Wolfpac now.
We're not gonna stop until Booker T is an afterthought in this business,
until Booker T has been wiped off the face of the wrestling world." ["Can You Dig It, SUCKA?!"] Booker T stepped
out of the entrance to a big pop from the crowd. Booker had a microphone... BOOKER: "I
shoulda known to have never trusted you, Steiner. You're out here claiming how you're gonna
kill off Booker T. There's only one man
that can take Booker T straight outta this game and that's Booker T. I ain't ready to go home, I ain't ready to
step aside, but I'm ready to get some of Big Poppa Pump. Now you bettah give me some or I'm gonna take
some, sucka." STEINER:
"Next week, Booker T, I'm not gonna duck you like Nash. You want to get in the ring with the largest
arms in the world? You've got it next
week. You don't know what you're getting
yourself into Booker. You come try and
take some of this next week." BOOKER: "Talk
about it all you want, talk about taking Booker T but next week we gonna find
out if you can back that big mouth up against Booker T. Now can you dig that, SUCKA?!" Booker T versus
Scott Steiner ... next week! That's
gonna be huge! ==-==-==-==-==-==-== NGW News & Notes-: ==-==-==-==-==-==-== -Kevin Nash blew out his left knee tonight and will be
out of action for 6-8 months. -NGW RAGE taping results for Saturday, September 21st,
2002: -Backstage, Jamie
Knoble informed us that he was going to chew Essa Rios up and spit him out like
yesterday's chew ... well, except that he's had the same chew for about a week
now but we get the point. Knoble likened
himself to a Messiah, a messiah of all rednecks, 'The Redneck Messiah' if you
will. Knoble said he will continue to
prove that he is, by god, the best Cruiserweight in the world. Jamie Knoble pinned Essa Rios with the Tombstone
Piledriver in 7:37. Rating: ** 3/4 -Backstage, Eddy
Guerrero again complained about his lack of TV time when John Cena approached
him and asked Guerrero if he's proven enough to face Guerrero yet. Eddy shot him down again and told him to
watch and learn from the master. Eddy Guerrero pinned La Parka with the Frog Splash in
6:43. Rating: *** Chris Jericho made Chris Kanyon submit to the Walls Of
Jericho in 10:18. Rating: *** 3/4 -A very
competitive match from Kanyon against Jericho.
Late in the match, Saturn and Scott Vick started to come out but Brock
Lesnar was waiting and took them out.
Kane started to walk out with Raven trying to hold him back. NGW Officials quickly got in between
them. Meanwhile, Kanyon lost his focus
and Jericho got him in the Walls Of Jericho for the submission win. -NGW has New York Knockout on October 13th, 2002 from
Madison Square Garden in New York, NY.
The tentative line-up includes; No Matches have been announced... |
