You should start pasting these head to head with the RAW results, just as a comparison of match quality.

The Giant def. The Great Muta

Giant/Muta recap by G.P. Ryan on the RSPW messge boards, Nash/Steiner recap by CRZ (slashwrestling.com):

 

The Giant vs. The Great Muta

Randy Savage (w/Liz) chimes in from the crowd, saying he'll take care

of Giant blah blah. While Muta and Giant circle each other, the NWO

(Wolfpack) music plays and Eric Bischoff comes out. Bischoff ejects

all of the announcers except Tony. Muta puts on an armbar for first

contact more than minute in, Giant shoves him away. I'm guessing here

that Bischoff is trying to make like Joey Styles with the rapid-fire

play-by-play. Giant comes back with a forearm in the corner that sends

Muta outside to regroup. Eric says Savage will have his way with

Giant. Eric says he missed Tony. Giant delivers some forearms, and

Muta goes outside again. Muta does some stuff, and runs the ropes into

a boot to the head, and he rolls out and crawls under the ring and out

the other side. Two dropkicks aren't sold much, Giant misses a

clothesline and gets dropkicked in the knee. Muta covers for 2, and

gets tossed off. Eric asks Tony if he and J.J. are on the same diet

plan. Muta hits a chop from the top, and when he goes for it again,

Giant grabs him by the throat when he lands. Giant blocks the mist and

hits the Choke Slam.

WINNER: The Giant, at 5:58 1/2* -- 3/4*

 

 

WHITE THUNDER (with Midajah) v. KEVIN NASH in a straitjacket match - well, at least by doing play-by-play for THIS match, it's just LIKE I'm extending my string of not doing play-by-play - yuk yuk yuk. "Cut the music! Bill Goldberg and Kevin Nash - I'm gonna tell you the difference between me and you two guys. See at New Blood Risin', the highlight of your night will be beatin' the hell out of each other. The highlight of MY night is when I leave the show because I never go home alone, because I'm (hung like Holmes), and that's why all my freaks know there's nothing finer than doin' the six(tyniner) with Scott Steiner." Sure, NOW they cut to a Gordon Solie sign. No ref for this match, no opening bell - we'll just guess. Nash with a knee, right, into the ropes, sidewalk slam, leg hooked - no, see, there's no ref. Nash brushes his hair back, right, brush hair back, knee, knee, knee, brush hair back, right, brush hair back, elbow, brush hair back, elbow, brush hair back - OH MAN!! HE'S FRAMING THE ELBOW!!!!!! Nash pulls his pants up and puts a foot on the neck. Midajah gets up on the apron and pulls Nash off by his hair. Steiner with an uppernut. Belly-to-belly suplex by Steiner. HE tries for a pin, 'cause he's stupid. OH BOY! Very special interview on Thunder with Vince Russo! It'll be Russotastic, you can damn well bet! And I'LL be here to make fun of it! Into the ropes, Steinerline, kiss the bicep, drop the elbow. Pushups for Steiner. Kick to the side. Kick. Kick. The pace has slowed to "deliberate." Steiner tosses Nash out of the ring - and follows. Nash put in the barricade. Nash put back in the ring. Standing on the neck. Steiner with words for the crowd. Steiner stomps. Nash put in the corner, kick, kick, kick, right, whip into the opposite corner, Nash puts up a boot, mounts him, right, right, right, right, right, brushes his hair back, and pulls up his pants. Into the ropes, big boot, brush hair back. Scoop - Steiner fighting it - into a bearhug, sorta - Nash walks over to the corner and drops him snake eyes style. Got him in a choke - Midajah back in the ring and with a chair - Scott Hall-style chokeslam, Midajah with the SOFTEST chairshot in the world. Nash turns around, brushes back his hair and grabs her. Brushing his hair back - TRUCKSTOP POWERBOMB!! Turning to Steiner - oh, but here comes RICK WOOF WOOF. Ah nuts. Forearm, forearm, right, right, into the ropes is reversed, big boot by Nash, brush hair back, going to powerbomb Rick but Scott has the chair - WHACK. Scott motions to Rick to get the straitjacket - then puts Nash in the Steiner Recliner. Rick puts Nash in the straitjacket while this is going on - hey, how's the Cat feel about this? Rick and Scott manage to figure out the buckles and secure Nash - then tie up the sleeves. Steiner almost goes out after somebody throwing trash at him. Somebody decides maybe Steiner's music should be played and we should cut this off. We'll cal that the end. (6:03) TRAINER DANNY YOUNG tries to check on Midajah but Steiner chases him out of the ring. We go to break...

Chris Jericho def. Dean Malenko by DQ

Ah, the good old days of Jericho

CRZ recap:

 

CHRIS MONDAY JERICHO v. DEAN MALENKO in a Never Again match - Jericho comes to the ring in a kimono - well, why the hell not? Dean powerwalks to the ring, uncharacteristically NOT adjusting his wristbands in the process. Jericho dropkicks Malenko as he enters the ring and we start off on the outside. Pounding, and barricade meeting, Malenko thrown back in, Jericho climbs to the rop but Malenko kicks him on the way down. Now it's Malenko with the punches. Whip into the ropes but Jericho holds on and Malenko hits the canvas. Rollup for 1, reversal. Tony tells us exciting Rodman/Malone highlights later tonight. Malenko punches away and now there's a whip to the corner. Jericho reverses and sits Malenko on the top turnbuckle. Dean shakes him off, Jericho flips. Supersunset flip by Malenko but Jericho is up and trying for the Liontamer. Tony's trying to differentiate between a Boston Crab and a Liontamer - gag. Dean grabs the bottom rope. Jericho springboard dropkicks Malenko off the apron to the floor. Jericho follows up with a plancha, and since nobody's talking, we can probably get away with an ad break.

 

WCW will be in Beaumont, Baton Rouge, Alexandria, and Shreveport!

 

WCW Road Wild is 8 August! And Travis Tritt will be there!

 

1, 2, no! Jericho is still in control, though. Knife-edge chop (woooo!). Malenko with a high knee to take over. Into the corner, whip, reverse, reverse, foot up, gobehind, reverse, Malenko with a release suplex. 1, 2, no. This is too damn fast for me - and that's how I like to watch it! Running lariat by Malenko. Suplex - no, Jericho reverses into an inverted suplex. Lionsault! Jericho rolls him over but only gets 2. Jericho attempts a suplex, reverse, elbow, reverse, counter, Malenko with a double underhook into a (not) powerbomb. Texas cloverleaf attempt is on - yes it is! Jericho grabs the rope. Malenko with a bodyslam and he's climbing the ropes. Jericho runs the rope and crotches Malnko. Superplex attempt is countered with - well Tenay called it a DDT but it looked more like a faceslam. 1, 2, Jericho grabs the bottom rope just in time. Jericho rolls to the outside - and we see him putting on some knux. As Jericho walks in, Dean is stomping a mudhole into him - twice Malenko pushes away referee "Blind" Shooter Curtis, the second time poking him in the eyes. Malenko turns to the ref and Jericho winds up. Malenko ducks and hits a belly-to-back suplex - and Jericho drops the knux. Dean is happy to put them on his own fist and LEVEL Jericho. Of course, now Curtis sees the international object and disqualifies Malenko (9:21) - so the story goes, Malenko will not get another chance at Jericho again.
