Nitro comes on the air as we see Lance Storm drive up the arena.  We the watch as he walks into the WCW locker room.  Everyone in the locker room stops talking as he walks in.

Owen:  What in the hell do you want?  Aren't you in the wrong locker room?

Traylor:  Yeah boy.  We don't like your kind around here.

Taylor:  Maybe I should drop you on your head like you did me on Thunder huh? 

Kanyon:  Why don't you just leave Lance.

Storm:  Fine, but you are all wrong about me.  

Lance leaves the locker room.  Moments later Bill DeMott comes out.

DeMott:  Hey Lance, wait a second.  Listen Lance, I don't think you are a trader and I need a tag partner tonight.  I got a tag title match but don't have a partner.  How about it.

Storm:  Bill, we have been in wars with each other.  Tonight that all goes behind us.  Tonight we become tag team champions.

We go to break but first we see Paul Heyman standing in the shadows with a sick smile on his face.

After the break we go to the announce table where Scott Hudson is with Gene Bennett and Joey Styles.

Styles:  Welcome to E---

Bennett: WCW NITRO!

Styles:  Gene, listen to me for a second.  I was the one that got you another chance out here.  Paul wanted to fire you after what you did on Thunder but I said you were too good of an announcer.  Now if you can't be a pro out here we will have no choice but to replace you.

Bennett:  You want to replace me, fine. 

Bennett throws his headset down and leaves the booth.

Hudson:  What a way to start Nitro.  Let's go to the ring where C.W. Anderson is taking on Diamond Dallas Page.

DDP made short work C.W. in his Nitro return.  C.W. did hit a superkick for a near fall.  Moments later DDP hit the Diamond Cutter for the win.

Diamond Dallas Page pinned C.W. Anderson with the Diamond Cutter in 0:03:19.

Hudson:  Well DDP has a great return match here.  

Styles:  Wait a second, I am getting word something is going on in the back.

We go to the back and we see that Danny Doring and Roadkill are attacking Lash LeRoux.  From the locker room Scott Taylor tries to make the save but the numbers are too great until Scott's former partner Brian Christopher runs out and evens the odds up.  Doring and Roadkill quickly escape.

Hudson:  Lash LeRoux is down and is suppose to team with Misfit partner Scott Taylor against Doring and Roadkill.  Let's go to break.

After the break we see Danny Doring and Roadkill in the ring with the mic.

Doring:  Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a tough job to do right now.  I have to tell you all that Lash LeRoux was involved in a serious accident in the back.  It seems that someone mopped the floor and didn't put one of those wet floor signs out.  So the tag match will not take place. 

"MISFITS" plays as Scott Taylor comes out.  

Taylor:  Doring, you are right, the tag match won't be taking place.  However, I have a partner.

Dance music plays as Brian Christopher comes out, only dressed like Grandmaster Sexay.  Scotty and Brian give each other high fives and charge the ring.

Too Cool picked up a big win in their re-debut.  Doring and Roadkill had the advantage early on but the fans were behind Too Cool.  Doring and Roadkill went for the Lancaster Lariat of Lust but it was broken up.  Moments later Christopher hit a German Suplex for the win.  After the match Too Cool got down much to the delight of the crowd.

Too Cool defeated Danny Doring and Roadkill when Christopher pinned Doring after a German suplex in 0:07:56.

Hudson:  What a win for WCW and the returning Too Cool.

Styles:  Well the fans love those two Scott, but they have a long way to go to becoming as good as the Dudley Boys.

Hudson:  That is true Joey, the Dudley's are the top team in the world right now.  After the break it will be Owen Hart and Tony Mamaluke one on one.

Owen Hart picked up a big win over former Cruiserweight champion Tony Mamaluke.  The match went back and forth including Mamaluke hitting the Guillotine Legdrop.  Somehow Owen kicked out however.  Moments later Owen gave Mamaluke an enziguri followed by the Sharpshooter.  Tony was forced to tapped out.  From the back Big Vito came out and attacked Owen.  Vito hit the Vito Special.  Vito then locked in a Double Armbar Submission.  Owen screamed in pain when Booker T hit the ring.  Booker and Vito exchanged blows until Vito was knocked to the floor.

Owen Hart made Tony Mamaluke submit to the Sharpshooter in 0:12:40.
Rating: **

Booker:  Hey Vito, you say you have the biggest grapefruit around.  Well how about tonight you get in the ring with me.

Styles:  Another big match signed here tonight.

Hudson:  I hope Booker knows what he is doing.  Vito is looking to make a name for himself and taking out Booker T could do it.  And if I know Paul Heyman Vito would get a nice bonus if he took out Booker as well.

Styles:  Scott, I would watch what you say.  Let's go to the back where Terry Taylor is with Chris Candido and the lovely Tammy.

Taylor:  Chris, tonight you take on a former Cruiserweight champion in the young Jaime Knoble.

Candido:  Jaime Knoble, who is that?  Oh yeah isn't he just another rookie like Johnny the Bull.  He came up short just like Jaime will. 

Taylor:  Chris, it seems that you and Gene Bennett are having some problems that center around Tammy here.

Candido:  Well that no talent fat slob is just jealous that I have this lovely woman and he doesn't.  Gene is not a threat to me just like no one in WCW.

Taylor:  Up next, the ECW Cruiserweight title is on the line.

Chris Candido got the win.  Jaime Knoble however was accompanied to the ring by Gene Bennett.  The two men went right at each other.  Knoble went for his Tombstone but Candido countered into a sitdown piledriver.  Candido then went to the top for his Flying Headbutt, but Gene crotched Candido.  Tammy then got on the apron and gave Gene a low blow followed by a Frankensteiner off the apron to the floor.  In the ring Knoble went for a Frankensteiner from the top rope, but Candido countered with into a powerbomb.  Candido then hit his Flying Headbutt for the win.

Chris Candido pinned Jaime Knoble with the Flying Headbutt in 0:11:04.

(Chris Candido retained the ECW Cruiserweight Title.)

Hudson:  My God Gene Bennett and Tammy are both still down.

Styles:  I can't believe what we have just seen.  That is one of the biggest risks I have ever seen a woman do.  

Hudson:  And don't forget Gene isn't a wrestler. He is an announcer.  

Styles:  Tammy is up holding her back.  

Hudson:  Look at those two putting the boots to Gene.  This makes me sick. 

Styles:  Let's go to break.  When we come back it will be Little Guido defending his title against Steve Blackman.

Little Guido retained his title in this match.  This match was more of a shoot fight then a wrestling match.  However the end was a wrestling finish.  Blackman went for his Pump Kick but Guido ducked sliding thought Blackman's legs.  He then hit the Kiss of Death for the win.

Little Guido Maritato pinned Steve Blackman with the Kiss of Death in 0:04:13.

(Little Guido Maritato retained the ECW TV Title.)

Hudson:  That was a shoot fight there Joey.

Styles:  Well those two might be two of the toughest wrestlers in the business today.  Guido was a shoot fighter before he became a wrestler and we all know that Steve is an accomplished martial artist.

Hudson:  Up next, it will be Booker T and Big Vito.

Big Vito got the biggest win in his career as he defeated the former world champion.  This was one on one with no interference.  The two went back and forth with Booker getting the upper hand.  Booker went to the top for the Harlem Hangover but Vito moved.  Vito then hit a Mafia Kick followed by the Big Vito Special.  Moments later the upset was over and Vito was the winner.

Big Vito pinned Booker T with the Big Vito Special in 0:11:54.
Rating: ** 1/4

Hudson:  I can't believe it! This has to be the biggest upset EVER!  

Styles:  Well it is an upset but it doesn't shock those of us that saw Vito in ECW.

Hudson:  Let's go to the back where Mike Tenay is with Lance Storm and Bill DeMott.

Tenay:  Guys, tonight you two get the chance to bring the tag team titles back to WCW. 

DeMott:  Tonight I also get the chance to clear this man's name.  I have been up and down the road with this man and I know he is loyal to WCW.

Storm:  Mike, I heard what you said about me on Thunder and I understand where you were coming from.  Tonight I hope I prove just what side I am really on.

Tenay:  Up next the Dudley Boys take on Bill DeMott and Lance Storm.

This was a great tag team match with both teams having great teamwork.  Early on Storm and DeMott had the upper hand but a low blow gave the Dudley's the advantage.  They worked over Storm and DeMott was often held back by the official H.C. Loc.  Finally the tag was made to DeMott.  He went right after both men.  He then hit the Moonsault on Buh Buh but the official wouldn't make the three count.  D-Von then hit DeMott with a chair.  Storm hit the ring and took out D-Von and grabbed the chair.  DeMott turned around and saw Storm with the chair.  He looked shocked as Storm dropped the chair and tried to explain.  DeMott however wouldn't hear it and started raining rights in on Storm and knocked him out over the top.  DeMott then turned right into the 3D and got pinned.

The Dudley Boys defeated Lance Storm and Bill DeMott when D-Von Dudley pinned DeMott after the Dudley Death Drop in 0:12:54.

(The Dudley Boys retained the ECW Tag Team Titles.)

Hudson:  Another misunderstanding has cost WCW a win.  Bill saw Lance with the chair and assumed he hit him.  Damn it.

Styles:  Scott let's face it.  WCW doesn't have any kind of order.  They are not a team like ECW.  They should just give up now.

Hudson:  We will see who is on top in just a minute as the World and US Champion take on Sting and Ric Flair.

Spike Dudley and Shane Douglas picked up a huge win for ECW over the greatest World Champion ever Ric Flair and WCW's own Franchise Sting.  This was a basically a hardcore match as Nick Patrick let anything go.  The match saw Sting and Shane pair off most of the time while Flair and Spike did the same.  Sting was able to hit the Scorpion Death Drop on the floor but Spike broke it up with a flying elbow from the apron.  Flair drug Spike into the ring and applied the Figure Four.  Just as Spike was about to tap out the lights went out.

Styles:  I have seen this happen in ECW before.  

Hudson:  What in the HELL is going on??

The lights came up and Jerry Lawler was standing in the middle of the ring.  He dropped a fist drop a fist drop on Flair breaking the Figure Four.  He then gave him the patented Jerry Lawler Piledriver.  Sting came in and went after Lawler hitting a series of rights.  He then gave him the Stinger Splash and was about to apply the Scorpion Deathlock when the lights went out once again.  They came up and Mikey Whipwreck was standing middle ring.  He threw a fireball into the face of Sting who went down in pain.  This brought out Scott Steiner who went after Mikey.  The lights went out once more and when the came up Balls Mahoney attacked Scott Steiner.  Spike picked up an exhausted Flair and hit the Acid Drop for the win.

Spike Dudley and Shane Douglas defeated Ric Flair and Sting when Spike Dudley pinned Flair with the Acid Drop in 0:15:56.
Rating: ** 1/4

Hudson:  Look at the carnage in the ring.  Three more ECW invaders as Jerry Lawler, Balls Mahoney and the returning Mikey Whipwreck.  Flair is down holding his neck.  Scott Steiner has been busted wide open and Sting could have been severely burned.

Styles:  THIS IS ECW!  The chair swinging freak Balls Mahoney has come home.  Mikey Whipwreck is a former triple crown winner here in ECW.  But I have no idea what Jerry Lawler is doing.

Hudson:  Let's hope we can get some answers on Thunder!
