Bored 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2003 Kinda funny that the Undertaker main evented every RAW in the last four years. That streak will end tomorrow. Five if you count '98 when he was a special referee. Is it his birthday this week or something? Let's see if he main events the Smackdown tapings tonight. Anyways since this is a pretty uniteresting week for Raw here are the old CRZ recaps for those Undertaker matches: KANE & MANKIND v. NEW AGE OUTLAWS in a return bout for the WWF Tag Team Championship - Ross gets a third and final chance to say "hellfire and brimstone" and doesn't take it - how very sad. Undertaker and Steve Austin also get entrances (Austin brings his cooler), and I'm wondering how much time we'll have left for this match - it's nine 'til already. The reg'lar referee for this match is Mike Ciota. Immediately, all four men start brawling again - Gunn and Mankind outside, Kane and James inside. Gunn delivers a WICKED shot on Mankind's head with the STEEL steps. Kane runs the ropes, but Gunn stops him short. James with a dropkick to the knee, Gunn with a chopblock and Kane falls. Outlaws make a wish. They leave Kane and both attack Mankind on the outside. To the ramp, and before the double suplex, Kane knocks over all three men with a double clothesline. Kane grabs James by the hair and brings him back to the ring. Big boot to the head. Kane with a choke, and a lunge for Ciota at 4. Hard Irish whip. Kane stands on the throat. Tag to Mankind. Punches and chokin'. Kick to the head. Repeat. And one more, why not. James lunges for his corner, but doesn't make it as Mankind grabs him by - the teeth? Back to his own corner and the doubleteam is on. Tag to Kane. Shot to the gut, and another to the face. Sidewalk slam and Kane climbs the ropes - top rope clothesline - 1, 2, Gunn breaks it up. Back into his corner and there's a tag. Whip, boot to the gut, swinging neckbreaker by Mankind. 1, 2, Austin points out that the Road Dog's foot is on the rope. Sleeper applied, but they're backed into the corner. Tag to Kane. James' head meets the turnbuckle. Chop (woooo!) - tag to Mankind. Finally, Billy Gunn figures he'd better do something, and he comes in and beats up Mankind. Somehow in all this, Ciota ends up on the wrong end of a splash and gets wiped out. Now it's a headbutt to James. Now James hits a Golotta on Kane and cradles him. Austin goes in to make the count - 1, 2, Undertaker pulls him out. A brief argument ensues on the outside, while on the inside, Kane has the Road Dog up - chokeslam! Undertaker is in to count - 1, 2, AUSTIN pulls HIM away. Now there's a staredown - now Kane's hitting Austin. Now Undertaker and Mankind are going at it. Now the NATION has hit the ring - here comes DX! Now Austin's stunned Kane! Undertaker has chokeslammed Helmsley! Now they're alternating people, Austin with the Stunner and Undertaker with the chokeslam! With the ring clearing out - Undertaker and Austin are the only ones remaining... ...oops, we're out of time. Dammit! Let's call it (no contest 8:07). See you next week! TRIPLE H (with That Slut Chyna & Vincent K.) v. UNDERTAKER (with Paul Bearer) in a #1 Contender's Match - So Undertaker walked all the way backstage so he could come out again? Eh. I guess we have to have his entrance (which IS pretty cool). Nice shot of McMahon smirking. Referee "Blind" Earl Hebner probably wants no part of this - who do the fans root for anyway? H ducks the first shot and fires away with repeated rights, then pushes away Hebner as he tries to get it out of the corner - this is all the Undertaker needs to get in HIS licks. This quickly spills outside - Undertaker points a finger at Chyna and then continues on Triple H. Head to the STEEL steps. Right hand. More menacing for the ref. H thrown back in, Undertaker follows. Head to the buckle, whip into the opposite corner, double choke, but Helmsley goes to the eyes to break it. Right, right, right, kick, kick, right, whip is reversed, Undertaker runs into a back elbow but fires back with a lariat. Scoop - and a slam. Off the ropes - elbowdrop finds nothin'. Helmsley clotheslines Undertaker out of the ring - but he lands on his feet. Chyna gets in her shot on Undertaker - as he turns to go after her, Helmsley comes off the apron with a double sledge. Ross reminds us for the thousandth time that Helmsley earlier said "You take care of me Vince, and I'll take care of you." Right, kick, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. Helmsley is a SCIENTIST! Got him by the hair but instead of bringing him back in, Undertaker drops and it's a hot shot. Off the ropes, Helmsley high knee! 1, 2, kickout. Meanwhile, Austin wakes up the cameraman and told him it was time to go. Back in the ring, Undertaker has Helmsley in the chokeslam! Got him ready for the tombstone - but STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN is in and on the Undertaker (DQ 4:22) Triple H watches for a while, then decides he better make a save ... but THE ROCK is out and on Helmsley. They're brawling over the barricade and out of the picture. Meanwhile, Austin and Undertaker are over the other barricade and making their way to the bloodmobile, looks like. Sure enough, Austin is coming back and now he's got Undertaker by the hair - they're VERY SLOWLY making their way through the crowd to the bloodmobile. Hey, you know what would be funny? If this was a BOOKMOBILE! How did the front windshield get smashed up anyway? I must have missed that. Back'n'forth brawl - a crowd mic is destroyed but since we're taped, you don't hear the great big THUD. Finally, we reach the end of this skirmish when Austin shrugs off Undertaker and locks him in the back of the bloodmobile ("HOW'S MY DRIVING? 1-800-775-2522") and now he's making his way back to McMahon, who has strangely enough been left all alone at ringside in his wheelchair. Austin takes his Smokin' Skull belt from the ring, then grabs a beer, then wheels McMahon out in front of the commentary table - right hand, belt to the head, there's a shot of Vince bleeding, Austin signs the contract (finally!) and then clotheslines Vince's chair to the floor. While Austin drinks some Pabst in the ring, Paul Bearer (oh yeah, where'd HE go?) opens up the bloodmobile and lets Undertaker out. Undertaker makes his way back to the ring and lets loose with a right hand, loaded with a beer can. For an encore, Undertaker takes the beer can and rips at Austin's forehead with it. Ewwwwww... Undertaker dumps Austin next to McMahon, who is bleeding somethin' fierce. Undertaker dips his fingers in Austin's blood, then runs them along his cheeks. Ewwwww again! By the way, Vince's bladejob puts Austin's to shame here. Ross says "Somebody's gonna bleed!" a couple hundred times then follows up with "end of an era" just one more time. NO MORE! KING KURT ANGLE and THE NEW MAN (with Stephanie Ono) v. UNDERTAKER & KANE - Is it just me or do Stephanie's makeup and wardrobe choices get more hideous with each passing show? It's GOTTA be planned - right? No bike for the Badass - the mind-reading STEEL steps stay put - increible!! 'Taker makes a beeline for Angle, who hotfoots it around the outside of the ring, *into* the ring...and into Kane. Oops. That's a big right handed clothesline. Into the ropes, big back body drop. Uppercut. Head to the top turnbuckle. Into the opposite corner - clothesline - on the shoulder - Angle breaks free. Kane tags Undertaker, and Angle can't move fast enough to tag out to Triple H. Don't know WHAT he's telling Angle to do there, but if it was distract Undertaker, it didn't work - soupbone! Soupbone! Into the opposite corner, clothesline follows. H staggers out - into a sidewalk slam. 1, 2, Angle makes the save! Undertaker shoots a look Angle's way and he not only leaves the ring, but hops over the barricade and jumps into the front row. Undertaker back over to H - into the opposite corner, back elbow by H. Running clothesline. Tag to Angle. Right, tag to Triple H. Angle is a scared, SMART man. H asking Angle what's up - Undertaker over to grab him - soupbone! Left, soupbone, leftsoupboneleftsoupboneleftsoupboneleft, soupbone, elbow, trying to give Angle a shot but he jumps down to the floor. H staggers into a right from Kane. Kane gets the tag. Undertaker puts him in - and Kane catches him in a double choke...then drops him. H put in the corner - right, right, back elbow, into the ropes, hea ddown, kick by H, clothseline ducked, H with the hangman's neckbreaker, tag to Kane, H with one more kick, Angle trying to keep an eye behind him on the Undertaker, kick, right, right, look back, right, Kane fighting out, Angle right, Kane right, back elbow, H dropping his throat on the top rope while Angle hits a chop block. Elbow to the back of the head, elbow, tag to H, right, H in, shoulder, shoulder, up for the suplex but it's blocked. Angle in with a shot to Kane's open side - trying to get him up for the DOUBLE suplex - but Kane blocks it. Kane with a double suplex of his own. Yikes! Angle goes outside while Kane punches H - into the ropes, there's a big boot by Kane. Got him on his shoulder - powerslam. Ross: "I thought that might be the tombstone piledriver." Yeah, right, YOU BASTARD. Kane up top - "flying" clothesline - 1, 2, Angle breaks it up - Undertaker is in with a big boot, and tossing him to the outside...and following! Angle hits the commentary table and goes over. 'Taker isn't done with him. The chase is on as inside the ring Kane throws random elbow to H. Angle is off, up the side ot the stage and 'Taker is following. In the ring, H has managed to go to the eyes (through the mask?), gutshot, Pedigree coming up - but CHRIS MONDAY JERICHO is trying to fight his way from the top fo the ramp through the refs & officials to get to Triple H! H, seeing Jericho, stops cold - and ends up on the wrong end of a Kane backdrop. Chokeslam! Referee "Blind" Earl Hebner in position - 1, 2, 3! (5:15) Kane's music briefly plays before Jericho finds his way into the ring - his ribs are taped (good thing he's shirtless so we can see the plot device!) - he gets a few shots in on H before the refs can break them up. H staggers to the outside with a ref on each side...Jericho running to the ropes - PESCADO!! Jericho gets in some more licks before Garea & Slaughter manage to get them broken up again. Play his music! 11:07 is too late for this show - SEE YA! DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE (with INVASION THIS SUNDAY) and RHYNO THE MAN BEAST (with Let Us Take You Back to SmackDown!) v. THE FUN BROTHERS - What happened with the Sara footage screening, anyway? Did they watch that before the big pep talk - or maybe after? Oh well, we'll never know. Pier Four Brawl with the men from the WWF getting the better of the punching battle - both Page and Rhyno end up outside in quick fashion. Taker to the outside, Kane awaiting an opponent. Page pumps up Rhyno - "KICKIZASSSSSS!" and once again Page manages to get his partner to be a sucker and get in there. Rhyno ducks the clothesline, right, right, right, Kane says "no sale" with a double choke - into the corner, right, right, right, right, right, right, stomp. Into the opposite corner - scooped up on the shoulder (21) - and powerslammed down. Overhand forearm to the back. Into the ropes, head down, kick by Rhyno - no sale - Rhyno with a choke...Rhyno pounds on the shoulder to get him to release - kick - off the ropes, Kane ducks - Kane with a big boot. Elbowdrop MISSES. Rhyno whips Kane into the corner - shoulder to the gut. Into the opposite corner - Kane up with no effect - catching Rhyno running at him and there's a powerslam. Tag to Taker - open kick. Soupbone, soupbone, head to the buckle, into the ropes, clothesline, legdrop off the ropes, 1, 2, Rhyno kicks out. Arm wringer - cranking on it - and over to the corner for Old Skool. Page gets a shove as well - that was enough of a distraction for Rhyno to come up behind and shove him out of the ring. Page with no delay in taking advantage - shoveed into the apron, forearm in the back, forearm, into the STEEL steps, and rolled back into the ring to Rhyno. Right hand, right, kick, tag to Page - held for the kick, kick, right, right, right, back elbow, back elbow, (22) into the opposite corner, clothesline follow - sidewalk slam - 1, 2, Rhyno breaks it up. Kane in as well - it's all broken down again. (23, 24) Worse than we know...the OTHER THREE MEMBERS OF TEAM W/ECW are out - referee "Blind" Earl Hebner decides to let it go (I guess) - it's five on two and the two aren't having much luck. Here come SIX MORE WWF GUYS - here come LOTS MORE W/ECW GUYS & IT'S ALL ABOUT PAUL - again the numbers take over - STILL no bell. KING BROCK LESNAR (Minneapolis, Minnesota - 295 pounds - with Paul Heyman - and Let Us Take You Back to Last Week) and THE AWESOME UNDERTAKER (Undisputed champion - Houston, Texas - 305 pounds - with Subway presents Vengeance!) v. RIC FLAIR (Charlotte, North Carolina - 234 pounds - with RAW in The G.R. hype) and ROB VAN DAM (intercontinental champion - Battle Creek, Michigan - 235 pounds) referee: Hebner As the smoke from van Dam's pyro waves its way through the smoke-filled arena (hey!) it's Flair and Taker starting. Remember when these guys were pals? Of course you do NOT, because it was 1991. Lockup, side headlock by Flair, Taker powers out, Taker with the shoulderblock. Thankfully, that's the first time I've had to type out that exchange sequence tonight. Flair backs up and goes in again - Taker with the knuckle lock and Flair screams. In the corner...Flair manages to break it - chop! Taker swings and Flair ducks - chop, chop, chop - side headlock, tag to van Dam - Taker powers out - Flair hooks the ropes, Taker turns round and takes a plancha from van Dam for 2! van Dam kick, right, right, kick, into the opposite corner is reversed, big "RVD" chant, clothesline by Taker. Ross says "Van Terminator" for the first time. van Dam pulls himself up - Taker runs in with the big boot but van Dam ducks - van Dam tries to make a charley horse with quick kicks to the back of Taker's leg - elbow, kick, kick, dropkick to the shin cuts him off, tag to Flair - Flair with ye olde chope blocke. Flair with the leg - and the figure four!! Taker screams - shoulders down! 1, 2, no! Taker back up - and grabs the choke - Hebner in close so Flair gives Taker an uppernut to break it all up. Flair goes to work - right, right, chop, right, woooo!, off the ropes...into a choke. Taker with a very, very, very gentle chokeslam - 1, 2, van Dam in with a dropkick to Taker's head to break it up. Taker stomps Flair and tags out. Taker holds up Flair for a kick. Forearm in the back by Lesnar, shoulder, shoulder, shoulder, shoulder. Into the opposite corner - shoulder by Lesnar. Flair acts like all his internal organs just failed. Back into the opposite corner - and another shoulder in the gut. Stomp, stomp, stomp, standing on the neck. van Dam tells him to let Flair tag out and try that with him - but Lesnar doesn't feel like it. Scooped up...dropped into a neckbreaker and Lesnar holds on to give him a second before dropping him. Lesnar wants to add some punishment while Flair is underneath the bottom rope, but Hebner stands in front of him and stops him - so Taker runs the apron and drops a guillotine legdrop behind his back, instead. And a soupbone to the back of the head. Taker pulls him out and gives him *another* soupbone, then rolls him back in for Lesnar. Lesnar covers - 1, 2, HE PULLS HIM UP! Man that's RIC FLAIR you're doing that too, son. Tag to Taker - held open for the kick. Flair sneaks in a chop but it won't turn the tide his way just yet. Taker with a soupbone - soupbone, soupbone, soupbone, and Flair goes down. Taker scares off Hebner but that was just enough time for Flair - chop! Chop, chop, chop, into the ropes, Taker ducks, Taker with the flying clothesline! Flair rolls to the ropes - Taker stomps him. Taker off the ropes - elbowdrop MISSES! Taker gets bleeped. Flair on the apron, pokes the eye and climbs the corner - of course, that doesn't work as Taker meets him with an uppercut, a soupbone, climbs up after him and gives Flair the SUPERPLEX!!!! Cover - 1, 2, van Dam with another dropkick to break it up! Taker tags Lesnar. Lesnar with an open kick. Forearm to the back, forearm to the chest, forearm, shoulder, forearm, Flair with a chop, forearm by Lesnar, Flair chops, chop, chop, Lesnar shoves him back in the corner - shoulder, shoulder, shoulder. Into the ropes, Flair ducks the elbow but Lesnar catches him on the rebound with a powerslam. Into the corner - shoulderblock MISSES and Lesnar meets the ringpost. Flair with a death suplex! Flair presses - 1, 2, Lesnar presses him into flight over Hebner! Ross says Lesnar was a one-armed man and he STILL had that power. Both men are down and the crowd comes alive for a possible tag to van Dam. Tag to Taker - HOT TAG TO VAN DAM! Kick, elbow, elbow, elbow, into the ropes is reversed, van Dam with a viscera! Dropkick for Lesnar! Shoulder for Taker, shoulder, superfluous backflip, monkey flip out, another free shot for Lesnar, Rolling Thunder for Taker - 1, 2, Lesnar drops the elbow to break it up. Lesnar with a forearm in the back, van Dam put in the corner, two boots up by van Dam on the charge. Springs to the top and kicks Lesnar - split-legged moonsault! van Dam covers despite the fact that Lesnar wasn't legal and Hebner goes ahead and counts - 1, 2, Taker drops the leg on the back of van Dam's neck! Taker sets up van Dam for the Last Ride but now FLAIR is in - chop, chop, chop, clotheslined out - oh Lesnar has Flair for the MOVE WITH A CRAPPY NAME!! But van Dam is there with the superkick - vaults to the top - Fivestar frog splash!!! Oh but Taker is back and he's still the legal man - LAAAAAAST RIDE. Taker with the press - 1, 2, 3. (10:03) Taker stands alone - he'll take on two guys not on this show Sunday at Vengeance. Whoops, Lesnar back in with a forearm to the back - one more - up on the shoulders - whoops, he almost caught Taker's crotch on his head but still managed to swing him out for the F-5! Play his music! Lesnar takes the title and gives it a good looksee...then places it on Taker's carcass. Ross proclaims business "picked up." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2003 Shawn Michaels def. Billy Gunn; WWF Title Match Mr. Ass def. The Rock '96 recap by Kevin James Podsialik on www.otherarena.com and '99 recap by CRZ on www.slashwrestling.com: Billy Gunn (w/Sunny) vs. Shawn Michaels (w/Lethargio) for the WWF title Lawler expresses his disappointment at Cornette's promise not to get involved in this match, but Vince detects a note of insincerity in Lawler's words. Then again, that more the rule than the exception in Lawler's case. While Shawn dances, we cut to Shawn's PR move of the week, attending a charity tennis tournament, and letting a bunch of junior Cornette fans pelt him with their vicious overhand serves. And in a move perhaps calculated to get a certain someone off of sabbatical, McMahon expresses his condolences at the death of a young Hart family member, while Lawler, for once, shuts up. Lockup, and it is Bart Gunn with the headlock. After all attempts to gain a handhold on the situation fail, Shawn eventually resorts to flinging Billy free, but gets knocked for a loop by the shoulder block on the rebound. Billy takes the opportunity to do his impression of Shawn's hip gyration routine. Lockup #2, essentially a replay of the first lockup, except the hip gyrations are replaced by a little moonwalking on Billy's part. Shawn pulls himself up, shoos away the double-breasted golddigger tormenting him with her song, and it's on to lockup #3, but first this word from Ahmed Johnson. Unfortunately, just what that word was will remain forever unknown. At any rate, Ahmed continues to beat on the theme of watching Shawn's back, as Shawn watches his back, and they watch each other's back. Sid, I suppose, will just have to watch his own back. Well, thank you for whatever that was, Ahmed, and now, getting back to the match, Shawn had Billy in a headlock, but Billy manages to reverse the situation somehow, and Shawn has to once again fling him off. This time, Billy ducks as Shawn leaps over, and on the next pass, Shawn hip tosses Billy clean over the top rope and down to the floor. And with the blonde male Gunn out of the picture for the moment, Shawn turns his attention to the screaming thing at the other end of the ring. Clearly, the only problem with her is what is coming out of her mouth, and thus Shawn attempts to correct the problem by sealing that opening with his own mouth. Sunny, sadly unappreciative of Michaels' magnetic personality, takes a swing at him, but Shawn is ready for that, ducks, and resumes his lip lock on Sunny immediately thereafter. By this time, though, an unamused Billy has arrived on the scene, and moves in for the attack. But Shawn is just so on a roll, he breaks contact with Sunny, ducks Billy's punch, comes off the ropes, and slaps on a flying head scissors! Well, very nearly one, anyway, but Shawn can't quite manage to lock on, and instead it turns into a sunset flip and a quick two-count for Michaels. Continuing on the roll, Michaels with a hip toss, and, eager to finish things before the moment passes, Shawn starts up the old leg. Billy, of course, reacts to that as if it were a rattlesnake's tail, and quickly exits the ring, thus spoiling the moment. Disappointed, Shawn surveys the scene of Billy and Sunny attempting to comfort one another, and decides to see if he can't just pick off one of them. And so, sliding kick, square into Billy, who hits the railing, and then once again Shawn turns his attention to Sunny, who has had quite enough of Shawn's antics, thank you, and runs off. Shawn turns his attention back to Billy, lowering the boom a few times before rolling him back in, and then entering himself via the top turnbuckle. But Billy, quick on the draw, turns Shawn's double axehandle into a flying gut drop onto Billy's fist, not a memorably successful move. Billy capitalizes on the stooped over Michaels with one of those moves I wish I knew the name of, involving looping one's leg over the back of one's opponent's neck, then dropping down, taking your opponent's head with you to the mat. Vince called it a Rocker Dropper, I wonder if that means Shawn used to do that move. Billy covers but gets only two, then punches away at Shawn's head until the referee tells him to knock it off. Billy pulls Shawn up, sticks him in a corner, softens him up a bit more, then goes for a cross corner whip. Shawn reverses it, Billy lands pretty softly, and Shawn decides to charge in after. Billy gets the boot up, but Shawn has a counter even for that, diving under the boot, exiting the ring, and then grabbing Billy's feet and tripping him up. Since one of Billy's feet are on each side of the local ring post, and since Shawn still has a firm grasp on both feet, this leaves Billy in a highly awkward position. After about five seconds of tormented anticipation, Shawn goes through with the maneuver, and now Sunny looks to be fresh out of dates tonight. Shawn reenters the ring in style, slingshotting himself into a flying clothesline of Billy. Michaels repays Billy's earlier head shots, and then goes back up to the top turnbuckle. Unfortunately, Sunny is quite on the ball, and furthermore is very capable of making herself heard over the crowd. As such, Billy is duly warned about Shawn's intentions, and is able to stagger over and pluck Shawn down from his perch and toss him on his back. A well-measured clothesline sends Shawn a-tumbling over the top rope, and this time he has no fancy rope-grab-and-pull-up move to save him this time. Billy poses in the ring, then decides enough time has been wasted, and he joins Shawn on the outside. As Billy lays out Shawn with one mighty blow, Vince poses the question, "What does sex have to do with the WWF championship?" A fine question, with many possible answers, which we can ponder over during the -- ad break -- On the replay, it is shown that Billy went on to drop Shawn's nose on the apron (and somewhere, Hunter Hearst Helmsley is smiling). At present, Billy has Shawn in a resthold, the infamous reverse chinlock, it seems. Presently, Shawn elbows out of it, but runs right into Billy's elbow on the rebound. Billy gestures to Sunny, and only then goes for the cover, and a two-count. Back into the resthold, which proves to be a sort of chinlock, and in the meanwhile Vince and Jerry discuss just what Camp Cornette's actual plans are going to prove to be. Actually, it's a case of Lawler knowing and McMahon guessing, but that much is a fine point. Billy thwarts Shawn's escape attempt with an eye poke, then takes Shawn over to one corner for a taste of turnbuckle. Over to the opposite corner, but Shawn insists on serving this round. Another eye poke from Billy hampers Shawn somewhat, as he takes a swipe at Billy and misses cleanly. Billy now borrows from Marc Mero in a display of pugilistic talent, sending Michaels to the canvas with one particularly vicious head shot. Cover, but Shawn is not P. L. Hopper (thank goodness), and so he kick out at two. Billy with a cross-corner whip (four inches!) As an aside, the Free For All match will feature, believe it or not, Jim Cornette vs. Jose Lothario. Sounds like a match that will be worth every penny. After getting inspiration from Sunny, Billy scoops up Shawn and hoists him upside down from the top turnbuckle. This is of course a position the referee is obligated to step in and remedy, just as soon as Billy gets in a few choice kicks. Sunny, meanwhile gives Lawler a high ten and ignores McMahon entirely. Quite a sensible girl, Sunny. Billy is slow to press his attack, meanwhile, and Shawn lashes out with a punch that just catches Billy on the nose. Shawn catches him again, before Billy sets up an executes what is allegedly a flying clothesline. Meanwhile, Camp Cornette has Left the Building. Repeat, Camp Cornette has Left the Building. Or at least walked through some sort of door. Billy Gunn celebrates this with a bulldog which sort of lost contact midway, and we go to an -- ad break -- We return on the fly to Shawn Michaels leapfrogging Billy Gunn, and then nailing a cross body block on the next pass. Michaels kicks himself to his feet, which is usually a very bad sign for the opposition. Shawn works the crowd a bit, then starts on a series of head shots to Billy's nose. Next comes a dropkick, then a scoop and slam, up to the top rope for an elbow drop, and it's time for the most telegraphed move in wrestling today. And as usual, there's not a thing poor Billy Gunn can do to escape the Sweet Chin Music that is forthcoming. 1-2-3, thanks for coming, folks, Green Bay audiences are the best audiences in the world, and so on like that. ROCK (with RAW credits & TV-14-DLV ratings box) v. KING ASS (with That Slut Chyna) - I now have a macro that automatically types out "Finally, the Rock has come back to (name of city)" for me! The Rock says that Gunn is suffering from Rock fever, but he'll be happy to take his temperature by taking the thermometer, turning it sideways, and...hey, I think I've heard this before. Let Us Take You Back three weeks with the heinous club attack, two weeks with the henious post-cage match attack, and back to semi-real time as Rock rushes Gunn on the ramp pre-match. Rock throws him into the ring for the opening bell, and Gunn quickly gets on him as Rock tries to get in the ring. It's all Gunn now. I live to watch punches. Truly the scientific and technical excellence we've all come to expect - that IS a nice splash, though. Too bad Gunn posed - Rock comes out with a running clothesline. Right, right, right, whip into the opposite corner - clothesline is ducked and Gunn counters with a neckbreaker. Ross: "Look at Chyna, that wench." 2 count. Lawler: "Remember, what you say about others says a lot about you!" Gunn choking Rock on the second rope for 5, and referee "Blind" Earl Hebner has to get a little physical to break the hold. Right hand from Ass. Off the rope, Gunn leapfrog, Rock clothesline. But trying to follow up, Gunn steps aside and sends him over the top rope. Outside goes Mr. Ass - barricade shot here, STEEL steps shot there. Head to the ALSO STEEL ringpost. Ross says that doesn't taste good - not even with a little of JR's BBQ sauce. CRZ may occasionally be a mark for his own initials, but not NEARLY as much as Jim Ross is for his own barbecue sauce. Gunn breaks the count, then brings Rock back in the ring. Gutshot - vertical suplex into a powerslam - Ross says it's a jackhammer-like slam, and I'm confused, 'cause that's GOLDBERG'S move. Gunn with right hands. Rock punches back and comes off the ropes - into a back elbow from Gunn. 1, 2, no. Gunn to the rear chinlock. Arm falls, but not enough times. Rock back up, right, right, right, duck, go behind, off the ropes, Samoan drop. Both men down - count is on. Both men up at 8 - Rock ducks as Gunn comes off the ropes - right, right, head to the buckle, kick, kick, right, right, right, right, right, Rock makes Hebner flinch, right, right, right, another fake to the ref, Gunn manages a kick to the gut - off the ropes, Rock manages to counter by dropping him across the top rope. Rock off the ropes, floatover DDT, cover - but Hebner is trying to get Chyna off the apron. Rock spins Hebner around - and then gets spun around himself, by Gunn, with a right hand. Whip is reversed - Gunn takes Chyna off the apron - there's the Rock Bottom! While Rock makes a show of throwing his elbowpad to the fans, Chyna secures a steel chair. As Rock comes off the ropes to deliver the People's elbow, Chyna waffles him right in the rump (or, as Ross said "spine") and takes Rock down. The Fame'Asser follows and there's the pin. (7:25) Ross: "The Rock got JOBBED tonight." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
