WORD FROM THE BUTCHSTER
Last month, 8-3. This month? Who can say, really?
Anyway, back to normal next week---SDSU clamped down hard on me this week so
I used the different days of the Monday night shows as an excuse, since THIS
is the article all 4 of you want to read on Slash Is Rosser, right? :) 7
matches announced--I guess 'cause they're saving the cool stuff for
SNLatinoHEaT. Let's do it to it:
THE BLACK & ORANGE MENACE v. INFORMER AL
Background (B): Tazz came back from an arm injury and proceeded to jump
Rikishi twice and choke out Scotty 2 Hotty mid-Worm, thus making him the
MOST EVIL MAN ALIVE. He won't provide an explanation until someone makes
him. And that man who stands for truth, justice, and the American Way
is...Al Snow? The same Al who's been choked out twice already? Can you say
slipshod booking, boys and girls? I think you can.
What I'd Like To See Happen [WL]: Tazz chokes him out and moves up a
level---say to the suspiciously absent Eddie?
What I Think Is Gonna Happen [WT]: The first half of the above sentence.
TOTAL REQUEST WORKRATE CAROLINA CON DAT THONG TH THONG THONG THONG v. TWO
UNIMPORTANT FELLOWS AND TRISH STRATUS-ROSSER~!
B: David v. Goliath times 2. The REAL cool part of the feud involves hot
chicks ripping off their clothes and engaging in violent acts against each
other. I LOVE this country, did I mention that?
WL: Hardies go over and position themselves as new #1 contenders for
SummerSlam. Lita spanks Trish. (In the immortal words of Jim Bouton, you
go on your ego trip and I'll go on mine.)
WT: T & A loses the battle but win the war through a post-match attack.
Trish spanks Lita. (So it IS interchangable, I don't care.)
WORLD TAG TEAM TITLES: LOS FABULOSOS ACOLYTES v. CANADIAN SHOOTERS
B: E & C got their belts back. SO cool. Acolytes won a battle royal to
become #1 contenders, which REEKED of heinousity. So, E & C have been
avoiding them for the benefit of those with flash photography, and have
managed to avoid the scheduled match until now, and it'll get the party
started right.
WL: E & C win the titles, setting up another Hardies rematch @ SS.
WT: The Acolytes beat the hell out of them, and get rooked for the loss,
then continue to beat the hell out of them. Then they go drink.
{Cage} INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE: THIS YEAR'S MR. ASS v. YOU CAN CALL HIM VAL
B: Superfly splashes off stages. Monitor-led assaults. Chair shots.
Hatred. Title changes. This is about as old school as a feud gets.
WL: Venis hits the Money Shot from way up yonder to win.
WT: Rikishi overcomes outside interference to once again reign as champ of
the continents.
JUST A GOOD OL' BOY v. THE KING OF RING (WHAT?)
B: Angle cost the UT & Kane the tag team titles, and tried to evoid this
match. But S!D saw a more heelish, more let's-do-this kind of actions from
the King. UT's been waiting for this for a while, let's see what we get.
WL: Steph comes out, her interferance backfires and UT wins.
WT: Kane turns heel begets the Olympic Slam begets Kurt's win.
{Last Man Standing}: SUPREME OVERLORD WWY2JD? v. FLAIR2000 (w/Steffi Baby)
B: All year long, the paths have crossed (remember Steph making Jericho a
co-IC champ?). Jericho has "won" the title on one memorable RAW and taken
hHh to the limits in another title match. Helmsley has stepped up the
carnage by playing Whack-A-Mole with Jericho's head, ribs, and a
sledgehammer. Winner probably in line for a title shot? Bet your sweet
ass.
WL: Steph misses a chair shot, Walls of Jericho, hHh passes out, Steph goes
with Jericho, double turn.
WT: Jericho wins due to mis-communicated DX interferance, and hHh gets beat
by them Monday to cement his turn.
{DQ will cause title to change} [WORLD TITLE]: INTERNET DIETY DAVID
LETTERMAN (w/Shane O Mac) v. DWAYNE JOHNSON SUPERSTAR
B: Benoit's been Crossfacing anyone who's looked at him cross-eyed. Both
men have beaten hell out of each other, and with a more intense Rock coming
to the fore lately, Foley stacked on the above stip. It's almost GOT to
come into play---but how?
WL: Rock wins, narrowly. Maybe he could sell the post-match attack really
well this time.
WT: Big Show chokeslams Benoit, costing Rock the title, Benoit gets a nice
24 hours with it before returning it to sender.
Well, there's the view from this broken crystal ball. And remember, if the
predictions look ridiculous in retrospect, it's cause Rant Central wrote it.
Back to the salt mines Tuesday. See you then.
