WWF 1998: Another Chance

[Guest give_us_wrestling_back_vince]

Writers Note

Just to let everybody know that i have decided on a new writing technique for results. I know i've had a few now but i have finally found a style and layout i'm comfortable with. It will be a totally brand new one and different from any of the above previous (included just latest) and i aplogise to any readers who may be finding the changes unattractive. But for the next Raw onwards this new writting style will be the one i settle on.

[cactusguy]

Whats up w/ Vince in your sig? He looks drawn or something. Anyway, interesting stuff.

Monday 14th February – New Mexico

In this weeks main event WWF Champion Owen Hart will team with Steve Austin to battle DXs Shawn Michaels and Triple H. Austin and Hart aren’t not great friends but they continue to work together to battle DX. How long will it take for this short fuse to light?

It seemed D’lo Brown had the match against Ken Shamrock won last week until The Nation showed up. Following this, D’lo has requested a re-match with Shamrock. Will he be able to stop the Nation interfering this time?

The Legion Of Doom will also be in action when they battle the newly formed team of Leif Cassidy and Rob Van Dam: The Pistols. Can this new team shock the champions?

We’ll also have both semi finals to the Light Heavyweight Tournament. This will see TAKA Michinoku take on Guernsey and Jeff Hardy take on Brian Christopher.

Confirmed Matches

Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament: Brian Christopher Vs Jeff Hardy

Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament: Guernsey Vs TAKA Michinoku

WWF Tag Team Championships: Legion Of Doom Vs The Pistols

Monday 14th February – New Mexico

DX Will Not Buckle

<“DX” plays and Shawn Michaels and Triple H appear from behind the curtain too a barrage of boos, with Chyna following behind. Michaels does his usual strutting to the ring and stops halfway down the ramp. He knells down while his fireworks go off and Triple H spits water vapour behind him. Both men enter the ring and HBK does his trademark pose while Triple H stand behind him and the crowd booing like crazy, with Chyna looking on.>

Jim Ross “Welcome Ladies and gentlemen to Monday night Raw. I’m Jim Ross alongside Jerry “The King” Lawler.”

Jerry Lawler “And what a way to kick of Raw JR!”

<Triple H has grabbed a microphone and is poised to speak.>

HHH “Why don’t you idiots shut the hell up!”

<HHH pauses as the crowd give him hell.>

HHH “Tonight DX has to battle McMahon’s lap dogs. DX battles the bald headed sex slave and the blonde headed bitch.”

<Triple H pauses and Shawn Michaels laughs violently while the crowd boo violently.>

HHH “You see you guys have been a thorn in the side of DX for too long. DX has had enough of you two. DX is going to eradicate you two. But before we can do that, I have my own personal demon. Well actually it’s more of an OAP problem. And I’m not talking about my pension.”

<Triple H pauses and Michaels re iterates its “Not His Pension”.>

HHH “You see last week I squashed that stupid blind over the hill moron Jake “The Snake” Roberts. (Slapping his European Title.) When you put this damn son of a bitch on the line then the game gets serious. When you raise the stakes Triple H rises to it. But now I’ve been told that the pensioner wants a rematch. Then I get told by that asshole Vince McMahon, that he gets one! McMahon you can stake what ever the hell you like against DX but we will come out on top. At No Way Out Jake Roberts will go down once again.”

<Triple H hands the mic over to Shawn Michaels and the crowd boo.>

HBK “You will have to forgive Hunter. You see his boss has been screwing him over recently. But then again, Vince McMahon has been screwing with DX since day one!”

<HBK pauses as Triple H nods in agreement.>

HBK “Vince McMahon thinks he can destroy DX. Vince McMahon thinks he can kill DX. Vince McMahon is kidding himself!”

<HBK pauses and Triple H nods in agreement once more.>

HBK “Vince all you’ve done is screw me over! You caused me to lose my WWF Title to Owen Hart (Crowd pop like mad). You tried to obscure my path to regaining it. And at No Way Out you want to destroy the very group I created, the group that gives HBK and all of its members that little extra. Well Vince you’re not going to take that winning edge away. Austin will not beat me and your little plan will backfired. Because Vinnie when DX has control of Raw. Nobodies going to be happy, except DX!”

<HBK hands the mic back to Triple H as the crowd boo.>

HHH “And If you don’t like what we’re saying. You can just SUCK IT!”

<“DX” plays and all three make there way back down the ramp to a barrage of boos.>

Jim Ross “Well I think it’s about time those three stopped crying wolf and stopped being jackasses!”

Jerry Lawler “Hey JR! What that mouth of yours. Or they’ll make you suck it too.”

Jim Ross “I’ll pass.”

See You At No Way Out

<TAKA Michinoku (Crowd pop) is sitting in his locker room in deep thought when there is a knock at the door. TAKA ignores it and the door is knocked again. TAKA ignores it again but this time a tremendous thud is heard and Brian Christopher burst in.(Crowd boo)>

Christopher “No please be seated.”

<TAKA gets to his feet and goes nose to nose with Christopher.>

Christopher “Looks like we’re both in the semis TAKA. And quite frankly I might as well be in the finals. If by some chance you managed to get there by some fluke of some kind then I guess we’d be back where we started. You see I know the finals are at No Way Out. I also know that I want to face you! You nothing but Japanese trash and I want to finish this with you. You and me: at No Way Out. Just win your damn match punk!”

<TAKA and Christopher stare holes in each other until Christopher leaves.>

Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament

Brian Christopher Vs Jeff Hardy

<A generic theme plays and Jeff Hardy makes his way to the ring. He slides under the ropes and poses on the turnbuckle to the crowd.>

Jerry Lawler “This punk doesn’t stand a chance against Brian Christopher.”

Jim Ross “For once King I agree. Christopher is the far more experienced competitor.”

Jerry Lawler “No I don’t mean that JR. This guy just sucks! (Laughs)”

<“Too Sexy” plays and Brian Christopher comes to the ring to some boos. He struts down and looks at the fans with disgust before entering the ring and posing on the turnbuckle.>

Jim Ross “This guy is a great athlete but his parents didn’t teach him manner manors.”

Jerry Lawler “Shut up JR!”

Match Report

Brian Christopher controls early on with a fast pace. Jeff Hardy finally gets some offence in when he dodges a top rope Missile Dropkick. Christopher manages to pick up the victory though when Hardy misses the Swanton Bomb and Christopher manages to hit the top rope Missile Drop Kick. A Good fast paced match up with a average crowd.

Winner: Brian Christopher (By Pinfall, 9:18)

<Christopher exits to the back while Hardy is down and out in the ring.>

Jim Ross “And Christopher is in the final.”

Jerry Lawler “His one step away from his prize JR!”

Your Pissing Me Off

<Michael Cole is standing by with Steve Austin to a huge pop.>

Cole “Stone Cole have you any thoughts on your match tonight?”

Austin “Does Stone Cold have any thoughts? Well after that 24th beer last night I’m not too sure but what I do know is that you’re pissing me off! (Crowd pop violently)”

<Austin gives Cole an intermediating stare and Cole gulps.>

Austin “You go around sticking your damn microphone in my face. Austin what do you think of this? Austin what are you going to do about this? Well let me tell you Cole and let me tell everyone here in New Mexico…………………..”

<Austin pauses and the crowd are blowing the roof of the arena.>

Austin “That Stone Cole is thinks its bullshit and Stone Cold is gonna kick some ass!”

<Austin pauses.>

Austin (Crowd join in) “And that’s the bottom line cause Stone Cold said so!”

The Nations Rock

<D’lo Brown and The Rock are talking in The Nation locker room to a good pop.>

D’lo “What in the hell was all that about last week Rock?”

Rock “What are you talking about jabroni?”

D’lo “I mean when you cost me the match to Shamrock jabroni! (Crowd pop)”

<Rock is pissed at being called a jabroni.>

Rock “Damn it! I did what was best for The Nation. Sometimes numbnuts you have to put The Nation before yourself!”

D’lo “But I was going to beat Ken Shamrock for you. How in the hell did giving him a victory and letting him BEAT YOUR ASS, help? (Crowd pop)”

<Rock is very irritated.>

Rock “Watch your damn mouth D’lo! Or I’ll slap the taste right out of it! (Crowd pop)”

<D’lo and Rock square up and the crowd pop.>

Jim Ross “WOW!”

Jerry Lawler “These two need to learn to get along for The Nations sake.”

Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament:

Guernsey Vs TAKA Michinoku

<A generic theme rings out as Guernsey makes his way to the ring. He slides under the bottom rope and warms up on the ropes.>

Jim Ross “From what I’ve seen of this young man, he is nothing but a moaning cheating sob!”

Jerry Lawler “JR come on. Give him a chance at least.”

<“Japanese Superstar” plays and TAKA Michinoku appears from the back. He slaps the fans hands on his way down to the ring and poses on the top turnbuckle.>

Jerry Lawler “And here he is. The man I beat to vacant that Championship!”

Jim Ross “The way you have acted towards this man is nothing to be proud of!”

Jerry Lawler “You’re such an idiot sometimes JR!”

Match Report

TAKA dominates the match at a very fast pace and finishes it with the Michinoku Driver. A very good match with a pretty dead crowd.

Winner: Taka Michinoku (By Pinfall, 9:42)

Jim Ross “So there you have it our final at No Way Out. TAKA Michinoku Vs Brian Christopher for the Light Heavyweight Title. And maybe like Christopher said these two can end it all on PPV.”

Jerry Lawler “I don’t know about that JR but know your looking at a losing finalist.”

<A hype video for Vader is played.>

Party Pooper

<“The Star Spangled Banner” plays and Vader makes his way to the ring in a sharp tuxedo to a little reaction. The ring is made up of red white and blue decorations and a podium in the middle. Vader stands behind the podium.>

Vader “You may be wondering why Vader is all dressed up? Why Vader is standing in a red, white and blue theme ring. Well its simple. Vader has had enough of that loud mouth asshole Kurt Angle and has decided to celebrate American.”

<Vader pauses and the crowd gives a little response.>

Vader “You see ever since our fore fathers greeted these sores, we Americans have stood for liberty, justice and honour. America has fought and beat slavery, occupation and scandal. America despite what Kurt Angle might have you believe has many heroes.”

<Vader pauses to a little pop.>

Vader “From Washington to Lincoln, to Martin Luther King to whoever you chose to name. America has a history of heroes and is the greatest country on this earth. America……………………………..”

<“American Hero” plays and Kurt Angle appears from the back much to Vader’s and the crowds anger.>

Angle “You people make me sick. Seriously New Mexico? More like “Special” Mexico. Are you people like Mexicans who are too stupid to get into Mexico?”

<Angle pauses and the crowd boo him loudly.>

Angle “Vader, just stop it. Just stop all this patriotic crap. America has no heroes. Kurt Angle is the only hero this country has.”

<Angle takes a breath and the crowd boo.>

Vader “Have you finished? Then get in this ring and let me beat your ass down boy!”

<Angle staggers back in shock and the crowd pop.>

Angle “Whoa! Whoa! Clam down there fella.”

<Angle smiles.>

Angle “I beat your ass bad last week. I cracked a steel chair off your head and knocked you right out. Are you sure that you want that again?”

Vader “Your damn right! Get you ass in here.>

<Angle starts to walk down to the ring and the crowd pop.>

Angle “Alright you got it!”

<Angle stops.>

Angle “Me and you No Holds Barred. At NO WAY OUT! (Crowd boos)”

<“American Hero” plays and Kurt Angle exits to the back to a barrage of boos.>

Jerry Lawler “JR, They are good looking guys.”

Jim Ross “Even if they do shave their bikini lines.”

Jerry Lawler “JR! (Laughs) This a family show!”

<“OHHHHHHHH WHAT A RUSH!” Hawk and Animal appear from the back to a good reaction and slap the fans hands on the way down. They enter the ring and begin to pose on the turnbuckles to a good pop.>

Jim Ross “There are the tag team champions!”

Jerry Lawler “And tonight they could be kissing those belts goodbye!”

Jim Ross “King, I think your right!”

We Are Pretty Tough

<“DX” plays and Billy Gunn and Road Dogg appear from the back to some good heat.>

Dogg “O.L.D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do believe you just screwed us out of the title!”

<Hawk and Animal look surprised.>

Dogg “That was out title shot. We beat the Headbangers a couple of weeks ago and you were too chicken to face us. Not that I blame you. We are pretty tough.>

<Gunn and Dogg begin to pose and laugh as the crowd boo.>

Animal “Outlawsssssssss! You want us? At No Way Out you got us! (Crowd pop) EHHHHHHHHHH tell um Hawk!”

Jim Ross “RUN KID!”

<Helms punches Kane put Kane shakes it off and grabs him by the throat.>

Jerry Lawler “Here we go JR!”

<“Martial Law” plays and Steve Blackman comes running down to the ring to little reaction and with kendo sticks in hand. He whacks Kane on the leg with them and Kane drops Helms, who escapes under the bottom rope.>

Jim Ross “Thank goodness Steve Blackman showed up.”

<Austin pause and the crowd go nuts.>

Austin “And then, after that I will go on to face Shawn Michaels (Crowd give good heat) at No Way Out. This match has a lot riding on it. Yet there’s nothing to gain for Stone Cole by winning! If Stone Cole loses, the scrawny piece of shit Shawn Michaels benefits and if Stone Cold wins, Owen Hart (Crowd pop loudly) benefits.>

<Austin looks at the crowd and they cheer him.>

Sunday 27th February – Texas

Shawn Michaels Vs Steve Austin

A lot is riding on tonight’s main event. If Shawn Michaels wins then he gains control of Raw until Wrestlemania. If Stone Cold wins then DX must disband. Vince McMahon has been getting Austin ready in the past weeks and Austin has passed every test. Can Austin pass the final test?

Intercontinental Championship

Ken Shamrock Vs The Rock ©

The Rock hasn’t had the best time of late. He has had to put up with a losing streak and The Nation falling apart. Can Rock put all these distractions aside when it comes to defending his gold?

European Championship

Jake “The Snake” Roberts Vs Triple H ©

On his first night back in the big time “The Snake” pinned Triple H in the middle of the ring, much to Triple H’s disgust. The following week Triple H wasn’t best pleased when “The Snake” foiled his attack on Steve Austin. Triple H got his revenge when he cost “The Snake” his match to D’lo Brown later that night. The following week when Triple H put his gold on the line he managed to better “The Snake” but only thanks to Chyna’s help. Can “The Snake” get the job done this time around?

D’lo Brown Vs Kama Mustafa

D’lo Brown and Kama Mustafa have been at each other’s throats for weeks. It all started when D’lo pinned Kama in a triple threat match on Superstars. Ever since both men have been arguing and have even come to blows, much to The Rock’s chagrin. Can this two sort out their differences and get The Nation re-united?

Kane Vs Steve Blackman

Kane has been on an unstoppable run since making his explosive debut in WWF. This includes Chokeslaming his brother, the Undertaker off the stage! In recent weeks Steve Blackman has proved Kane’s biggest task to date. Will Blackman be able to stop the monster?

No DQ

Kurt Angle Vs Vader

Kurt Angle has had nothing but ill feeling towards America and its people since appearing on WWF television. Vader in recent weeks has taken exception and has decided to stand up for America. Can Vader defend American pride?

Light Heavyweight Championship

Brian Christopher Vs TAKA Michinoku

Out of 16 men these were the two best light heavyweights in the WWF. It should be a simple matter of wanting to win the title against an opponent. However this means much more that that. Brian Christopher along with Jerry “The King” Lawler have set out to make TAKA’s life as miserable as possible since joining the WWF and King cost TAKA the title at the Royal Rumble. Can TAKA finally gain his title back and revenge?

WWF Tag Team Championship

Legion Of Doom © Vs New Age Outlaws

The Outlaws have had their huge egos pushed back a little in recent weeks with Hawk and Animal showing they are the better tag team. Not ones to go down quietly though, The Outlaws are determined to regain the gold. Can the Legion of Doom finally shut the Outlaws up?
