Sunday 3rd March 2002 WWF present Sunday Night Heat Jazz def. Lita by pinfall These 2 women will be apart of the Womens Championship match at Wrestlemania and it looks like Jazz is trying to build some momentum going into it. Jazz won this match with a powerbomb. A video comes up showing tonights remaining matches, they are: Matt Hardy v Raven and Billy Gunn v Test for a shot at the WWF European Championship at Wrestlemania. -Commercials- Raven def. Matt Hardy by pinfall Once again a run in defeated one of the Hardy's, this time though it was Rhyno running in and as before while the ref was pre occupied he hit his signature move, The Gore! After the match Jeff ran down to even up things and to start a brawl to the back. A video is shown showing highlights between the RVD v Regal match and Tazz v Edge match, all of this culminating in an Intercontinental Title match between tazz and RVD. -Commercials- Billy Gunn def. Test by pinfall to become the #1 contender for the European Title Tonight saw the return of Mr. Ass! This got a big reaction from the crowd. The match however could have swung either way, Test missed his big boot on 3 seperate occasions but it took just 1 attempt for Mr.Ass to hit the fam-ass-er for the pinfall victory. It's now official at Wrestlemania it will be Christian v Billy Gunn for the European Championship

In 2002 ECW was owned by WWF. Read the backstory/the rest of the diary. I've read the backstory and like 70% of the diary and i've never seen any mention of ECW. I'll take your word that it's in there but WCW wouldnt have any interest in ECW anyway. I'm not trying to be mean to the writer here but alot of this stuff is really unrealistic and people are telling him it's fantastic and realistic. I'm not sure if you guys let things slide here but where i regularly post my diary this wouldnt be being dubbed as the best thing ever. Then his split partner comes along and doesent even explain what happened in all of 2001. Since this is a 2002 game and the invasion never happened wouldnt it of made lots of sense to give 5-6 paragraphs on what happened from March of 2001 to November in 2001? Like i know these guys are doing there best and generally it isnt bad but when you see gaping errors like that it is very hard to get into it. Then you see people congratulating the guy when he isnt even doing all that great. Then i decide to take time out of my life and feedback him and it got deleted or someone bitched because it wasnt kissing the guys ass. Stuff like that pisses me off big time. Or maybe i'm just insane and am finding it hard to adjust to this stuff.

ECW wasn't bought by WWE until 2003, so yes it was available. And who says WCW wouldn't have interest? Nobody does. You base your views of this diary off the Fusient Purchase. Well, did they say 'Oh, we're definately NOT interested in buying ECW'? Don't contradict yourself.
Explain to me what's unrealistic. In my eyes, the whole concept of this diary is to BE unrealistic seeing as this never actually happened..
Fair comments on the WWF, it should have been done.
Your posts got deleted because you were being an ass, whether you see that or not. It may not be the greatest diary, in fact I know it isn't, but I look at yours and neither is that. Therefore, you have no room to come in and pretty much look down on anyone. 'Where I post my diary this wouldn't get great feedback blah blah blah'. Be quiet and go back there then. Stop wasting 'the time out of your life' to come here.

MARCH 3rd 2002; Expect The Unexpected? by Mark White -WCW.com
You think back to July 7 1996 in Daytona Beach, Florida. You think of one of the most infamous moments in professional wrestling history.
At that years Bash at the Beach event, Hulk Hogan betrayed the world, the fans and WCW by effectively switching from the recognized red and yellow of Hulkamania to the black and white of the new World order.
For weeks, Scott Hall and Kevin Nash had tormented WCW. Everywhere they went chaos followed. They were unwanted. They were Outsiders. They wanted a match with three of WCW's biggest stars. When asked why three they revealed that they had a third man, who eventually turned out to be Hogan.
This sparked a revolution like no other. For the next 3 years the nWo had WCW in the palms of their hands, until it was taken away by the brave and loyal forces of WCW.
Today, March 2002, we come again to that very same scenario. Hollywood Hulk Hogan, Scott Steiner, Jeff Jarrett. The nWo. These men threaten the very existence of WCW. Ric Flair, Bill Goldberg and The Outsiders stand up against them.
But, the nWo have promised a Fourth Man. Just who is he? Nobody knows. When will he show up at Greed? Nobody knows. However, one thing is for sure. Every single person in the building that night will be on the look out. Nobody is exempt from suspicion. Everybody is a candidate.
6 years on, can we expect the unexpected again?

WWF Raw! Live from the Ford Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Raw's entrance video is played the camera's then come inside to a huge pyro display. Godfather def. Justin Credible by pinfall The Godfather (and his hoes) got a usual big reaction from the crowd to start this match. Godfather won this match with a big death valley driver for a comfortable victory. A video is then played recapping Smackdown. The 2 huge challenges from The Undertaker and The Rock stole most of this segment. -Commercials- Christian def. Test by pinfall Christian is getting ready for his title defence at Wrestlemania against Test who could have been his opponent at Mania. Christian won this match the unprettier. A preview for Smackdown is shown, it shows that Big Show, The Rock and Triple H will all be in action. The camera's go backstage to The Coach who is with the Olympic gold medallist Kurt Angle. Angle is asked about the challenge The Rock gave last week and the angle slam Angle recieved during the brawl. Angle said the challenge is nothing in fact he laughs at it being called a 'challenge' he said he won an Olympic gold medal with a broken neck so he can easily beat The Rock, he then said the angle slam he recieved was pure luck it would never happen again. -Commercials- APA def. The Dudley Boys by pinfall in a non title match. After what the APA did to the Dudleys on Smackdown the Dudleys came out looking for a fight and with it being Faarooq and Bradshaw they got one. The APA won this match when Faarooq dominatored D-Von. After the match though it wasn't over the Dudleys wanted payback which they got when they put both of their opponents through tables with powerbombs from the top rope. A graphic comes up showing that tonight's remaining matches are RVD w/Edge v William Regal w/Tazz and Steve Austin and Triple v Undertaker and WWF Champion Chris Jericho -Commercials- William Regal w/Tazz def. Rob Van Dam w/Edge by pinfall in a non title match This match was going fairly cleanly to the amazement of everybody until Regal decided to try and use the brass knucks which both Edge and the ref spotted, this meant the ref was taken up by Edge and Regal which allowed Tazz enough time to jump in the ring and knock RVD out with the tazzmission. After this Regal pinned RVD for the win. WWF Champion Chris Jericho is backstge with Stephanie McMahon and The Coach who is about to interview them. Jericho pushes the Coach away stating he doesn't deserve to interview the king of the world. Jericho said tonight is just another step closer to Y2J fulfilling his dream of defending the WWF Championship at Wrestlemania against Triple H who he also said is nothing but a cripple after his long lay off. A video for Wrestlemania is played which is only 13 days away. Matches include Triple v Chris Jericho for the WWF Title, Kurt Angle v The Rock. Steve Austin v The Undertaker, Tazz v RVD for the Intercontinental Title, Christian v Billy Gunn for the European Title and Jazz v Lita v Trish for the Women's Title. Chris Jericho and The Undertaker def. Triple and 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin by pinfall Jericho pinned Triple H!!! Cleanly!! This big main event certainly paid off with great in ring action and great entertainment value for all the fans. Both Austin and Triple H tried to get at their Wrestlemania opponents to varying outcomes with The Undertaker only too happy to brawl with Austin and Jericho who wasn't too thrilled with the idea of getting Triple H in a fist fight. Jericho won this match with a pedigree to Triple H after hitting the lionsault to add insult to injury.

Candido comes in following his match and stares down Helms. Tonight's Main Event sees a Superbrawl rematch between Hollywood Hogan and Ric Flair. Everyone is barred from ringside!

Booker T defeated Primetime.Curt Hennig joins commentary for this one. Throughout the match, he claims to have a counter to every move in Booker's arsenal. The WCW Champion pins Primetime following the Book End. He then invites Hennig into the ring, but his Greed Opponent chooses to head backstage. A video airs. We see cage walls, darkness and a man kicking the crap out of a punch bag. We hear someone speak. 'Step into the Lion's Den.' Chuck Palumbo & Sean O'Haire defeated Mark Jindrak & Shawn Stasiak w/Miss Hancock.Palumbo and O'Haire once again defeat their former stable mates. Post-match, Stasiak and Jindrak have to be seperated by Miss Hancock, who reveals that to prove they're just out of form and really a great tag team combination, she's arranged for them to face KroniK at Greed. Stasiak and Jindrak look at each other before we go to a break. We see a recap video of July 7 1996 - Bash at the Beach. Hulk Hogan turns on WCW and forms the new World order. On that night he was the Third Man. On March 17th, the Fourth steps forward. Lance Storm is with Mean Gene. Storm has an ice pack held to his face. He accepts Savage's challenge and says it'll be a pleasure to put him into retirement. A video package begins to play. A voice speaks. 'WCW provides enough to satisfy every man's need, but not every man's 'Greed'.” Afterwards, we see text revealing that we're live in the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas on March 17th for WCW Greed.Ric Flair defeated Hollywood Hogan.Hogan submits to the Figure Four Leglock. Post-match, Scott Steiner and Jeff Jarrett head down the ramp to attack Flair, but Goldberg and The Outsiders come through the crowd and cut them off. Soon enough though, it'll be even numbers.

Wrestlemania and Greed are looking great! The BHF are pretty cool, I laughed at them bundling Psychosis into a car. LMAO! I'm interested in the Stasiak/Jindrak angle. I think they will break up in the coming weeks. Raw was also good, although I dislike how you put the womens division on HeAt. It would be pretty cool to see a womens division in WCW... Drop a reply to WCW '07 - '08?
