By Pollrlex1

First and Foremost!!!
I wanna send out My deepest wishes to a Nitro Girl. The most beautiful woman
I have ever kept my spy camera on fell last week on the wrestling ramp and
needed stiches in her knee. All I can say is I wish you the best and if I
could kiss away the pain..all night, everyday, for as long as I... Um ..
excuse me, Get well Chae!
Love you much! Get well soon. If you dont know who Chae is visit our
homepage and you'll see her next to Torrie.

Ric Flair Is Injured.
The 14 Time world heavyweight Champion may have seen his last championship
from the squared circle. The Nature Boy has a severe Back Injury which has
rekindled his injury from years ago. His chronic back problem has been
diagnosed by doctors as being a major league injury and possibly it could be
a career ending injury. Let's say a prayer for one of the greatest of all time.

Is there Stability in the Madness stable?
Team Madness will soon lose a flooze. Madusa is expected to fued with Ms.
Madness and possibly start the womens title division. I hope that someone
gets something going soon cause I am tired of seeing something only KEN and
the Macho man can have. Bring on the wrestling boobs!

News on WCW Saturday Night.
Jimmy Hart will have control over WCW saturday night and the show will be
used to sucessfully (hopefully) push Mid Card Wrestlers. You should see the
change in the show next month.

bret.jpg (2776 bytes)The Hitman and Hogan to fight?
If Bret returns soon he is Scheduled to fight Hulk Hogan at War Games. This
match would be 2 faces going for all the marbles. In fact Bret is stated to
be at Nitro on July 5th But an official release from bret's web page Tuesday
stated... "Despite widespread internet rumors that Bret is returning to
wrestling on this date or that date in this town or that ... we have it
DIRECTLY FROM BRET, that he has not yet made his decision on if he will
return. Anything else is just rumors folks."

LETS HEAR IT FOR THUNDER!!!!
Usually I wouldnt give a rats a$$ what the ratings say till Thunder beat out
Nitro this week. Nitro drew a 3.1 while Thunder drew a 3.5 What a horrible
sound for Bischoff to live with!

SABLE PLATBOY #2.
The second issue of playboy featuring Sable may not be released until the
lawsuit filed against the WWF by her. Playboy does not want to intrude on the
rights of the Name Sable whoever it is granted to!. Like everyone has already
seen all three of her Belly buttons.. why look at them again?

Let me Whisper a Heartbreak.....
Shawn Micheals and newly crowned wife Whisper are in hot water already.
After what appears to be 3 months of marriage, The couple seems to be having
major problems. I wonder if Whisper will ask for her old job as a Nitro Girl.
Hey she was my second choice! :-) heh heh

The Undertaker's Future:
The Undertaker may soon be having knee surgery. He is having extreme pain
and has a very diffecult time just keeping things together. The extent of his
injury is not known. So for all you Satan fans out there, The mirror image of
Death may be dead for awhile!

As for ECW News.. Well I didnt find anything worth reporting!! not much has
happened .
So Please forgive me, if you ECW fans in Readerville are saddened. I will do
my best to bring you great news Next week! Hey it happens!

Thanks for reading News And Rumors

nitrofire.jpg (1758 bytes) Wrap Up
By Big AL 211

* Big Al here with ya, on a good night of wrestling. I was mostly happy with
the show WCW put on, and heres the rundown:

*Show opens with Ric and David Flair in front of Michael Jordan's statue at
the united center. Flair says david is gonna wrestle Nash for the world title
tonight. This looked like an awful main event, but as i like to say its not
really the main event, as much as what happens in the main event.

* Steven Regal and Fat Finlay Vs. Chris Benoit and Saturn
A pretty good match for both teams.Good to see Regal back. Hes still as
cocky as he ever was, and got alot of heat from the crowd. Finlay took on
Saturn and Benoit himself for a while. Regal was sharp once he finally got
in(well, as sharp as he ever was anyways). Saturn hit a death valley driver
on Regal for the win. Why did they make Regal job his first match back? Thats
gay, why couldnt Fat Finlay do the job, not like he hasnt before.

Winners: Chris Benoit and Saturn

* DJ Ran wants to know where his CUBS fans are at. I think he forgot he was
wearing a WHITE SOX jersey. Fucking Idiot.

*Flair and company in the back. Van Hammer comes in and asks for a title
match. Flair gives him a match at Bash at the Beach against Rick Steiner. You
know, it would be nice to see an angle start some other way than having Ric
Flair just "Book Them." Hold on, WCW may have cut Norton, but kept Van
Hammer?? Its too bad Scott Norton wasnt friends with DDP.

* Gene Okerlund interviews Ric Flair,Roddy Piper, Arn Anderson, Asya and
Charles Robinson. Flair says some words about chicago, gets a mix of boos and
a small pop. Piper just starts ripping on Howard Stern, and says some dumb
things. Flair then says the match between Kevin Nash and David Flair will be
a lumberjack match, and calls down Macho Man and Sid. Flair asks them to be
lumberjacks and they agree. This is when the main event angle started to get
somewhat interesting.

*Lodi is shown in the back rubbing Lenny Lane's shoulders while Lenny paints
his nails. Lenny asks Lodi what will happen if WCW finds out about them. Ha!
Lodi tells Lenny they arnt the only ones in the company. Lodi tells Lenny,
you got me, and i got you babe. Ha! i gotta say this angle is getting very
funny. Im sure alot of people will knock it, but these guys really seem gay!
i hope it continues.

Lodi Vs. Eddie Guerrero
Lodi comes out wearing purple tights(which three16chk informed me stands for
being gay). some heat for Lodi. Eddie went to the top rope for the frog
splash, but Lenny Lane got on top of Lodi in a "69" fasion(hey, im just
reporting what i saw). Eddie then did a double frog splash on them, and got
the pin on Lodi.

Winner: Eddie Guerrero

*Backstage Piper says they need more lumberjacks. Flair gets DDP, Kanyon and
Bigelow in on the lumberjack main event, which is shaping up nicely.

*Hak Vs. Bam Bam Bigelow
Hak calls Ric Flair out because he doesn't like extreme matches. Why, i have
no clue, i never knew Flair didnt like hardcore matches. Bigelow comes out
and the match starts. A good match as Bam Bam had control most of the way,
and towards the end Hak had to fight off DDP and Kanyon, which he couldnt do
for long. A diamond cutter by DDP helps Bigelow get the win.

Winner: Bam Bam Bigelow

*Nash comes out for an interview to a HUGE pop. Says if he wins the
lumberjack match, he gets Torrie for 72 hours, because thats all it would
take to ruin her.

Bryan Adams, Stevie Ray, Vincent and Horace
Vs.
Curt Hennig, Barry Windham, Bobby Duncum Jr. and Kendall Windham
Just a plain 8 man, nothing real special in this match. Hennig is the only
one out of the country team id say has any talent.Vincent has about 2 real
good moves, and thats about all he knows. But hey, didnt some other guy get
to the top on just 2 moves??? A double Bulldog on Vincent for the win. Ok
match i guess.

Winners:Curt Hennig, Bobby Duncum Jr, Kendall Windham,Barry Windham

*"The Cat" Ernest Miller Vs. Disco Inferno in a dance contest
This could have been the start of a great angle, but it was ruined. The cat
says if everyone doesnt vote for him, he would get his karate gee, and beat
everyone up. Somewhat of a pop when he started dancing, but mostly boos.
Disco starts dancing to a loud pop, although ive gotta say the cat is a much
better dancer. The Cat attacks Disco while he is dancing and the match
starts. I was happy WCW finally started a decent angle......i thought, until
Mr.Ruin any angle you put me in, Jerry Flynn, came out. Cat hit disco with
his dancing shoe and was about to get the win when Flynn Nailed The Cat.
Flynn challenges The Cat to a martial arts match next week. Gay Gay Gay. They
could have had a pretty good and funny angle with the cat and disco, but they
had to throw Flynn in the mix. Hes like the Steve Blackman of WCW.

Winner: The Cat By DQ

WCW World Tag Team Title Match
*Buff Bagwell and Dean Malenko vs. Diamond Dallas Page and Kanyon
Good wrestling match. Bam Bam came in and helped alot. Flair came to
ringside and announced that Arn Anderson would be the special Referee for the
lumberjack match. The champs DDP and Kanyon in control most of the way. First
beating on Malenko for a while, then on Bagwell. Tag matches in WCW ive gotta
say are top notch. All five men in the ring towards the end of the match, and
Bigelow and Page hit the double diamond cutter for the win.

Winners: DDP,Kanyon,and Bam Bam Bigelow

*Shows the music video for "I Hate Rap". I just cant get enough of that song.
If you know of any sites with that song up, please E-Mail me with the link.

*Scott Putski vs. Sid Vicious
I thought Putski was released. Oh well. Sid came out to really no reaction.
Pretty fast match, all Sid. A hell of a choke slam by Sid and a decent
Powerbomb for the win. Sid needs much bigger matches.

Winner: Sid Vicious

* Main Event Lumberjack Match For WCW World Title
Kevin Nash Vs. David Flair
Lumberjacks:Bruce McGardener, Ric Flair, Asya, Charles Robinson, Diamond
Dallas Page, Kanyon, Bam Bam Bigelow,"Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Sid, "Macho Man"
Randy Savage, Miss Madness, Gorgeous George and Medusa
Nash gets rushed by just about all the Lumberjacks. Savage nails Nash with a
chain, then spits on him. David Flair locks Nash in an awful Figure Four and
Nash gets out easy. After dishing out some punishment on Flair, Nash is
rushed again. David Flair trys to get Nash with a tazer, but Nash takes it
from him and shocls just about everyone. Nash then takes Georgeous George on
his shoulder and leaves with her. Torrie runs back with Nash smiling. GG
looks pissed. I guess Nash is a rapist now. As Nash gets to the back he puts
GG in the limo and torrie also jumps in as well. Nash glances at the Hummer
and sees STING'S face in the rear view mirror!! Nash speeds off as Savage and
Sid cant catch him. Finally, a great ending to a WCW show!!!!!!

Big AL's Nitro Review: That ending made the whole show. Is Sting the hummer
driver? If not, who was dressed up as Sting in the hummer? What is Nash gonna
do with GG, and whats up with Torrie Wilson wanting to go with Nash. WCW
finally ends a show making you wonder whats gonna happen next week.Im giving
this Edition of Nitro a strong 7.5 on a scale of 1-10. Overall the matches
were very good, and this was the strongest Nitro finish i can remember in a
while.
Please send all your questions and comments to me at
Big AL 211. I reply to all my mail, good and bad. Thanks Again.

This Nights Monday Night Raw Started Off With Vince Coming Out And Talking
Trash To Stone Cold About Winning The Company Back....But, If You Ask Me
Stone Cold Could Have Stunned Them In A Few Seconds And Had The Match Over
With, Anyway Back To Raw....Afterall Of Vince's Words Stone Cold Came Out and
suddenly Anounced That Before KOTR He Had Set Aside A Contract That
Guarenteed Him The Spot For A Match Against The Undertaker For The Title Belt
On Raw.....This Pissed Off Vince, But If You Ask Me Vince Can Suck
It!...Afterall Didn't He Want The Crowd To Start Cheering For
Him??...Remember When He Turned Goodguy To Just Get The Crowd Cheering?..And
Then Only To Turn His Back On The Fans And Join The Ministry As The Higher
Power?...Well, Why Would He Want To Get On The Bad Side Of The Crowd?........

The First Match That Was Set Was For Steve Blackman V.S. Ken Shamrock, This
Match Was Made By None Other Than The Evil One, But Yet The Handler Of The
Pay Checks, Vince!!....Well, Vince Can't Even Fight Himself In Any Of The
Un-Realistic Matches He Sets Up!...But, As You May Know Ken Shamrock Was
injured Suffering From Internal Bleeding!...So, I Think If I Was Shamrock I
Would Have Said "No, You Can Take That Match And Shuv It Up Your @$$ If You
Smell What I Am Cooking!!...But, Of Course The Wrestler's Never Do The
Sinceable Things, So Ken Accepted The Match, He Came Out With Nothing Except
Himself And Steve Blackman Came Out With A Duffle Bag Filled With Nun-Chucks
And Kendo Sticks!.....Ken Started To Get The Uper-Hand Metting Blackman As He
Was Walking To The Ring...As Shamrock Does To Most Wrestlers, He Threw
Blackman In The Ring And The Punishment Began...Blackman Finally Got The
Upper-Hand By Working On The Bandagged Area Where The Enternal Bleeding
Was...He Hit Him With Everything in The Bag And Broke The Kendo Stick...I
Think If Blackman Was A Real Man He Would Have Came Out With Nothing Like
Shamrock!....So Without A Doubt THE WINNER WAS STEVE BLACKMAN....Well,
Acctually He Really Didn't Win The Match He Just Beat The Crap Out Of
Shamrock Sooo Bad He Had Him Bleeding From The Mouth, Then He Picked Up His
Bag And Left!!

The Next Match Was Between Hardcore Holly And Kane, Because Holly Ran His
Mouth And Challenged Kane....Kane Came Out And The Match Was Started By A
shove From Holly, I Hate It When The Wrestlers Shove Each Other To Me It
Looks Like They Are The Normal Everyday Rif-Raf Off The Streets Just
Fighting!.....Anyway The Match Took Off And Big Show Came Out And Choke
Slammed Kane!....I Was Heart Broken!!...Kane Was One Of My Favorite Wrestlers
And I Thought No One Could Take Him Down!...And I Come To See Him Falling At
The Hands Of Another One Of My Favorite Wrestlers The Big Show!....I Didn't
Like That!....If You Ask Me I Think All The Goodguys Such As Kane And Big
Show Should Stick To More Inportant Matters!...Not Saying Any Names, But The
Corparite Ministry Is The Badguys!!.....Ok, Anyway Big Show Certainly Choked
Slammed Kane Really High And Throwed Him Down Like A Rag Doll!..While Kane
Laided There Holly Pinned Him With One Foot And Won!!...So The WINNER By I
Would Say Disqualification, But The Ref. Didn't See It Was HARDCORE
HOLLY....After The Match Holly Talked Trash To The Carcise Of Kane And
Suddenly He Arose To ChokeSlam Holly Four Times!!!!

The Next Match Pissed Me Of Big Time!....It Was Between HHH and The
Rock!!.....This Match Was Simple The Rock Came Out And Talked Trash!....I
Love It When He Does It! And The Match Started, During The Match Rocky Of
Course Dominated The Match And Went To Pin, But Only Getting Two
Counts....Suddenly Mr. Ass Came Out And Helped HHH He Hit Rocky With A Wooden
Club, And So NO WINNER Was Declared!...Dq!!

I Loved The Next Match Sooooo!!...Much!!!.....It Was Between The Godfather
And Edge, The Fighting Was Good, But I Was Mostly Staring At The New Ho's
That The GodFather Had Brought Out With Him!....They Were Soo Hot!!....The
WINNER Of This Match Was EDGE...This Was A Pretty Cool Win, Because Edge Won
With A spear!...May It Be That Edge Wants To Be A Goldberg??...Maybe!...I
Dunno!...After The Match Though One Of The Ho's In A Red Dress Was Gonna Be
Periced In The Tounge By Prince Albert And Droz!....It Didn't Happen Though,
Because Edge Saved The Ho And Took Her Home With Him!....If You Ask Me She
Gave Him A Freebe Cause He Saved Her!!!!........

The Next Match Had An Unexcpected Winner!...It Was Between Bradshaw And Billy
Gunn For The Half Of The Tag Title That Billy Won From Him!....The WINNER
>From A Clothesline That I gotta Say Was The Biggest I Have Ever Seen!,Was
BRADSHAW...This Match Was Won Because Billy's Guard Was Let Down When He Was
Distracted By X-Pac!!....I Hate It When Wrestler's Loose And Win By
Distractions, I Only Like It When Puppies Are The Distarctors If You Know
What I Mean!!!!.......

Then Next Match Was Awesome!!....I Loved It!!....It Was Between The Womens
Champion Ivory!...And A Fan!!.....I Normally Love Matches Between Women, But
I Loved This One Alot More Because The Fan Wore A Mini-skirt And When She
Speared Ivory You Could See Up It...And The Skirt Was Coming Up On Her Alot
Too!.....Anyway On With The Match!....It Was A Pretty Quick Match,
Considering After The Spear The Fan Was Beaten By Ivory And Had To Be Pulled
Off!!.....So I wouldn't Really Call This A Match, But If You Wanted A WINNER,
Then From I Totally Would Call A severe Beating!....IVORY....It Was Pretty
Stupid Of Ivory Though To Challenge Any Lady Fan To A Match For The Women's
Title, Bcause Just Think If This Wasn't Stagged!.....And Some Big Mega Strong
Women Came Out And Won The Title From Her!??...Well I Guess Thats Why She
Brought Nicole Bass Along As Protection!.......

I Ain't Even Gonna Explain The Next Match Much!, It Was Between X-pac And
Jeff Jarret!...But, I Really Did Enjoy It!!....My Favorite Wreslter
Won!!....But, I Was Totally Watching The Puppies!!......The WINNER Was JEFF
JARRET!!!.....It Was Back And Forth In This Match Of Who Had The
Upper-Hand!....Even A Little Distraction Was Tried By The Puppies!....I Was
Really Suprised When It Failed!!!.......But, Still They Won Sooo....Its Fine
With Me!!

The Next And Final Match Of The Night Was Awesome!!.....First Of All Let Me
Tell Ya Who Won!!......The WINNER Was STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN!!!!.....He Made
The Match Soo That If The Undertaker Had Anyone Within 50ft Of The Ring He
Would Automatically Forfit The Title To Stone Cold!.......But, Unfortunatley
It Wasn't That Easy For Stone Cold!!....He Had To Use Alot Of Moves And Take
A Beating!....But, Finally He Put On The Stunner And Pinned!....Thats How He
Won...After The Match The Undertaker And Stone Cold Duked It Out Until The
Show Went Off The Air!!....It Was Cool Austin Was Bleeding!!!!...........

THE ULTIMATE WRESTLING FAN!,

Big AL On: Master P
By Big AL 211

Hooty Hoo my ass. Master P is getting paid.....get this......200,000 an
apperance! Wow, they are paying that guy that much, and for what? Honestly,
did anyone that watched Nitro tonight get upset Master P wasnt on tv? i
really doubt it. But how many of you would have liked to have seen Jericho
Tonight?? Eric Bischoff( i refuse to call him Eazy-E) can pay Master P
200,000 an apperance yet keeping Jericho cant be done? Its also rumored that
due to his signing, WCW has gotta release Scott Norton, and possibly RAVEN!
What would you rather see, Master P singing or Scott Norton powerbombing
Master P. I think that poll vote would be unanimous. Master P is a waste of
WCW and is wasting WCW time, time which they need very badly. Dennis Rodman
isn't needed either. If Bischoff would clear his head, sign wrestlers, and
make them wrestle, WCW couldnt go wrong. Word is Master P is unhappy and he
may quit. That is the best possible thing that could happen to WCW, and i
hope they will never fuck with rappers or entertainers again.On some quick
notes:

* The Lodi-Lenny Lane Gaylords angle is funny. If you think this is going to
far for a WCW angle, remember Adrian Adonis and Goldust both played a gay
charactor, and there wasnt too much heat on them for that. I hope people will
be happy WCW is getting the balls to do an angle that is somewhat "Out There".

* Big Props to WCW for the finish on Nitro. Finally something to get people
wondering, and not just a dull run in finish.

*DAM! The Cat and Disco could have started a great fued with that dance
contest, but Jerry Flynn came in. That guy sure does know how to ruin an
angle.

Thats all for this week. Thanks for reading my column, and please send any
and all comments and questions to
<A HREF="Mailto:Big AL [email protected]">Big AL 211</A>. I reply to all my mail.
Thanks Again.



HennigPlex
By [email protected]

HennigPlex in effex...The little feedback that I got about the valets show
that people prefer the Chyna/Bass type who'll kick your ass. I was thinking
more on the lines of Chyna, who isn't a moose ass to look at. As of now I
believe that Legion of News will have TWO correspondents at Bash at the
Beach (which is damn good). Is there anyone else bored with all of the
celebrities coming into wrestling? Soon, they're gonna take over the SPORT
that we all love...In my opinion, Buff Bagwell is showing that he is not
ready to run with the big boys...Ok...onto the rest of the 'plex. I wish
today's kids could have grown up with WWF of the 80's...Heenan was a
manager, Ventura was on the mike, and Haku (Meng) was slim and agile...Kids
today don't know what a heel is...Example: Scott Steiner is not a heel...Bad
News Brown is a heel. In the same vein, Kevin Nash is not a face...Ricky
Steamboat is...The sides were clearly drawn back then, and it was a war.
When you saw the Big Boss Man of the 80's running down the aisle, you knew
he was coming to help Akeem and Slick. There was no guessing whether he'd
turn his back on him. There was no such thing as a screwjob ending (Imagine
that...), and feuds were epic battles that you had to look forward to. The
only downfall of the 80's were the Non-PPV's. They were filled with
interviews on a cheesy background with the wrestlers name on it. Matches
were painfully obvious, like Demolition vs. The Conquistadors, or Dino Bravo
vs. Brooklyn Brawler. Besides that fact, the 80's generation was not
necessarily wrestling's prime, but a damn high point that has yet to be
eclipsed. Comments? e-mail

King Of The Ring Review
By  [email protected]

MAN OH MAN!! I got a lot of heat for my review last night..So lemme
clear up a few things...

I love wrestling very much, In fact lemme tewll you how much.. I'll
bust open a ten best list....... nevermind, Big Al already stole that
idea.. oh well here goes...
The WWF KOTR is supposed to be the biggest PPV since wrestlemania, But
this year it was not what is should have been.. Did McMahon step up
his concern for his workers? and not do risky stunts? Perhaps, But
still even so Vinniemack does know how to put on the show still!
I didnt enjoy KOTR because I was disappointed in the actual length as
well as the show in general.. the wrestling was at a low point.
perhaps last minute changes, or uncoreigraphed improvising, Whatever it
was.. it wasnt the work of the Vinniemack we know!
Wrestling is a great sport, I love it, and although the KOTR wasnt up
to par, I know WWF still has awesome live action!
Just remember when you order a PPV you expect Mr. McMahon to pull out
all the stops!

KOTR grade Still C+ but it was really more like a good Nitro!
Till Next Time this is Pollrlex !

WHAT'S WITH PAY PER VIEWS?
By Josh Pivonka

    The King of the Ring is over and you're all probably thinking, Josh
you suck. Well i got 4 out of 7 pics right so I didn't do too bad. As you
all know, Mr. Ass won it all. I picked Kane. If it wasn't for an
interferring Paul Wight, Kane would've won.
    As for the rest of the pay per view I agree with the Great One,
Pollrlex, by saying that it wasn't very good. There have been way better pay
per views from the WWF. There were really no surprises. Sure I was wrong on
half of my picks but nothing surprised me. I am a loyal WWF watcher and I
would have to say that the writing needs to be better for the pay per views.
    Tonight on Raw was more entertaining than last night's King of the
Ring. How often does that happen? Well, almost every Monday after a pay per
view. I guess that they work the story up for the pay per view but like any
good story, the viewers need a bang to top it off and we just aren't getting
that.
    I hope that next month on Fully Loaded,I go to bed saying, "That was
the best wrestling that I have ever seen!" I don't know if that will happen
though. The writing is just horrible when it comes to the big money events.
    I'm sorry if this article wasn't funny or as funny as past articles
from our staff, but I just had to get this frustration off my chest about pay
per views. It was bad but not as bad as anything WCW puts out. Or ECW for
that matter. Wait!! They're not even on cable. They must suck!!

Send all comments about this column to Josh Pivonka.


Closer

Well thats it for issue #4. Did Josh just bash ECW?? Oh my, ECW fans are
gonna rip him apart for that. They are ruthless. Anyways, thanks for reading
and please continue to interact and let us know how you feel. If you change
your screen name and still want to get Legion Of News, just e-mail me with
