Page 10 Flair g insane pnlncri? It was nights like Monday that make it M **i ** |H fun to be a wrestling Hi ? JMH fan. Both companies put Hk on solid shows Dan Blackmon exciting stoThe Smackdown U ^es ^ ~ great interviews. Psychosis won the cruiserweight belt - Whoopdee freakin' doo. Buff continued to impress, and the Macho Man kept showing us why he is the man. In the main event, DDPiece of trailer park trash defended the heavyweight strap against Goldberg in the main event. This match probably cemented Page's role as a heel. Page started to beat Goldberg with an illegal object and then shouted something at the crowd. All of a sudden, Nash ran out and made the save for Goldberg. Way to go, Nash! But wait, after Nash made the save, he started to console Goldberg. I couldn't tell if Nash was trying to push Goldberg back into the ring or make out with him. Whatever the case, it should be fun watching DDP go back to his role as bad guy. For those who missed out on the WWF, all I can say is, I'm sorry and give G-cock Cable Company a call.. Congratulations to the Godfather, who successfully defended the IC belt, and congratulations to Val Venis just for being so damn cool.

His interview skills are fantastic, and there was no better example of this than Monday night's RAW. His eulogy to Stone Cold was some of the best mike work I've heard in a long time, but leave it up to Steve Austin to do the Rock one better. The Rattlesnake drove into the arena in a monster truck running over the Rock's new Lincol on his way. Austin proceeded to crack a few Steveweisers and open up a can of whoop-ass on the Rock. "It ticks me off to see jobronis like Bryan Adams and Virgil -1 mean Vincent - get air time while great talent is going to waste in the back.'.' But Shane MacMahon, who I'm really starting to like for some reason, came in and hit Austin over the head tiri+Vi a cVimrol Chalk up another win for the WWF in ratings. WCW did about as well as it could have Monday night. Even though it has the potential to be as good, if not better, than the WWF, I really don't expect much from Ted Turner's crew. Let's look at the way they've treated Flair, for example. >r Gamecoc on Tuesday mmmBEmSmmSRBmSHHRhmHBBBHSEBB & N !iwV/How docTTIeX JS afford these H 4 " f great dates? \ m v-.-hmmm, maybe he n |has a trust fund. j|*l CAROLINA 311 to i- Rnnk le Cold After getting his 14th title, Nash and the bookers make Flair job out in a four-way match. Granted, that allows him to save some face, but he should have held that title for at least two pay-per-views. Now the boys in the back are making Flair lose every match, turning him into a heel and sending him away to an insane asylum. That's not exactly the way the man who built WCW should be treated. It ticks me off to see jobronis like Bryan Adams and Virgil ? I mean, Vincent - get air time while great talent is going to waste in the back. One of the biggest thrills I get as a wrestling fan is watching a really good PPV. There is just something really great about watching a story line build up over a couple of weeks or months and then seeing it culminate with a great match at a PPV. This Sunday, the WWF is putting on a PPV title "Backlash." For some reason, I get the feeling this is going to be one of the best PPVs of the year. All the story lines are in good order, and there is a true rivalry between mnot nf tVio r?nmha+onf c ttio nnlv ov J-ULVUV VI (111V VV111VU Ktiii ViJ ) Hlv VlilJ VA ception being the Big Show/Mankind match, but when Mick Foley is in the mix, there's never a letdown. I just hope the rumors aren't true and this won't be his last match for a while, but I digress. I'm looking forward to seeing how the Austin/Rock feud will end. Who knows, it might carry over to King of the Ring or even Summer Slam. Whatever the case, I get the feeling this is going to be a great match, probably even better than their WMXV match.
