iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2003 Here's some really desmarkified results off the Torch: (1) Christian beat Val Venis to retain the Intercontinental Title. This was a pretty good match with a few near falls. They started off with a "who can get the bigger pop" contest, which the Big Valbowski definitely won. Christian won the match with the unprettier, and afterward, Valbowski threw his towel out to the crowd before he left the ring. (2) Hurricane & Rosey & Mark Jindrak & Garrison Cade beat Mark Henry & Rodney Mack & Steven Richards (w/Victoria) & Rico. They all did a great job, making this a fun comedy sort of match. At one point, Rico was in the ring with Garrison Cade (maybe it was Mark Jindrak?), and Rico did his gay bit, slapping his ass, enjoying certain holds a little too much, so Cade went to tag in someone else, but all three other guys jumped off the ring apron because they didn't want any of Rico's funny business either. Good stuff. Hurricane's team won, and Hurricane gave his mask to a little kid in the front row, which got a nice pop. (3) Scott Steiner beat Test (w/Stacy). How many times have I seen this match? Oh well. All the guys in the crowd were into this match or at least into Stacey. Scott Steiner won, and then asked the crowd if they wanted to see Stacey dance, which of course was a resounding "yes." Stacey went to dance, but then Test pulled her out of the ring and left. (4) Trish Stratus beat Molly Holly and Jazz with Lance Storm as the special guest referee. I guess Jazz is all healed up. She looked great out there. The best part of this match was the kid behind me pondering the gender of Jazz, saying "She's gotta be a man! She's a man!" I know it's mean, but…There were a few good spots in this match. Trish did her Matrix move, and then there was a pinning combination where Molly and Jazz laid head to head in the ring and Trish got a few two counts on both of them, flipping from one to the other. Trish won, and then Lance gave her an innocent little kiss on the hand. Trish looked at him and swooped him up into a little less innocent kiss. Remember the one Vince gave to Sable a few weeks ago? Yeah, that's the kinda kiss Trish gave to Lance. Got a great pop. (5) Randy Orton beat Maven. Randy Orton came out to the this one solo. The crowd was pretty quiet throughout, though I'd say it was one of the more technical matches of the night by far. Randy Orton eventually won with the RKO. (6) The Dudley Boys beat La Résistance & Rob Conway. The French boys had some pretty good heat here with lots of USA chants, and the Dudleys got some of the biggest pops of the night. There was one scary spot where something went wrong. The middle rope was loose, so when Bubba went to run them, he fell through the middle rope and hit the floor pretty hard. La Résistance took the opportunity to get a little heat by gloating while D-von, Spike, and a couple trainers went to check on Bubba. He seemed ok afterward though. The Dudleys won with a 3-D, and they slapped hands with pretty much every fan at ringside after the match. Chris Jericho Highlight Reel with Eric Bischoff and Stone Cold Steve Austin: Jericho first said Austin wouldn't be there because someone cancelled his flight. He brought out Bischoff as his first guest, talked a little smack. Enter Stone Cold. Same routine you've read about being done at other house shows, but it was still really fun to watch, and they all looked like they were having fun out there. Oh yeah, almost forgot. One fan had a sign that said, "Jericho is a transvestite", which he and Stone Cold had some fun playing around with. (7) Shawn Michaels & Jerry "The King" Lawler beat Triple H & Ric Flair when Lawler pinned Triple H. So many Jerry chants going on during this match, and he held his own pretty well too. Before the match, Triple H got on the mic and said, "If you think I came all the way to Memphis to put your old ass over, you're crazy." We actually ended up seeing Flair's ass when Shawn pulled his tights and held on for a damn long while, though I gotta admit it was pretty funny. Randy Orton and Maven both did run-ins, but here's the best part: Triple H was pinned by Jerry Lawler. Yes! He really did lose. Intermission (8) Kane beat Rob Van Dam in a cage. The cage didn't look too sturdy, so use of it was pretty minimal, but they did climb to the top of it a couple times. Kane won after chokeslamming RVD off the top of the cage. After Kane left, RVD spent at least five minutes posing for fans, etc. Final Notes: The arena wasn't even close to full. The floor and about half of the lower bowl were filled, but I'm definitely glad I went. They all put on a great show. It started around 7:30 and didn't end until close to 11:00. Biggest Pops: 1. Jerry Lawler (hometown boy) 2. Shawn Michaels 3. The Dudleys Most Heat: 1. Triple H 2. Chris Jericho 3. Test (when he stopped Stacey from dancing) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lilly Report post Posted September 1, 2003 Great job Canadian Chick, love you for that. You should write up a program to translate de-smarkified.
