Hi ? JMH fan.
Both companies

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.

a huge fan of the Rock.
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

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.

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.
And that's the Smackdown.
