March 27th, 2001- Last Night, WCW had it’s very last show. The Night of Champions. At the end of the Evening, it was revealed that Shane McMahon had purchased WCW from underneath his father. That his father’s own arrogance had cost him, just as it would this Sunday at WrestleMania X-Seven. However, things aren’t going to be easy for WCW. It’s got an owner whose never been in control of a wrestling company before, and the only contracts that were secured from Turner were the following 24: Kid Romeo, Lance Storm, Sean O'Haire, Mike Sanders. Chuck Palumbo, Mark Jindrak, Johnny The Bull, Reno, Billy Kidman, Torrie Wilson, Stacy Keibler, Bill DeMott, Lash LeRoux, Elix Skipper, Mike Awesome. Chavo Guerrero, Alan Funk. Chris Kanyon, Shannon Moore, Shane Helms, Shawn Stasiak, Kaz Hayashi. Jamie Noble, and Jimmy Yang. It’s a roster small on star power and small in stature, and there is currently no TV deal in place. Will wrestlers take a buy-out of their Turner contracts? Does Shane have some tricks up his sleeve to take down the mammoth WWE? I guess we’ll find out soon enough. This Sunday, WWF Presents WrestleMania X-Seven, and here’s the card! WWF World Heavyweight Championship: The Rock defends against Stone Cold Steve Austin! Triple Threat Tag Team TLC for the WWF Tag Team Titles! The Dudley Boyz defend against the Hardy Boyz and Edge and Christian! WWF Intercontinental Title: Chris Jericho defends against William Regal! WWF European Title: Test defends against Eddie Guerrero! WWF Hardcore Title: Raven defends against The Big Show and Kane! The Undertaker takes on the Cerebral Assassin, Triple H! The Family Battle! Vince McMahon takes on Shane McMahon! Kurt Angle takes on Chris Benoit! In a Six Man Tag, Tazz and the A.P.A. take on Right to Censor!

Raven defeated the Big Show and Kane to retain the WWF Hardcore Title.These three brawled all over the building but the match ended when after Kane was able to Chokeslam the Big Show through a table, Raven hit a DDT onto Kane through a chair for the pinfall and the title retention! (71%) Test defeated Eddie Guerrero to retain the WWF European Title.A very good back and forth match. Eddie thought he had the European Title won, but he took too much time after hitting the Frog Splash, he started arguing with a fan at ringside, rather than going for the pinfall! By the time he turned around, Test was on his feet, and he hit the Big Boot to retain the title! (61%) Tazz and the A.P.A. defeated the Right to Censor.Val Venis walked out on his Right to Censor partners, leaving the Goodfather and Bull Buchanan all alone! Steven Richards jumped in, and the referee allowed it, but he ended up getting pinned after a Dominator by Faarooq! (61%) Shane McMahon defeated Vince McMahon.- This was one insane match. These two, father and son, left each other bloody. Trish Stratus tried to interfere, to help her man, Mr. McMahon, but when she swung the chair at Shane, she accidentally hit Vince instead! Shane then climbed the top rope and hit the Big Elbow for the 3! After the match, Vince wouldn’t even look at Trish as she tried to apologize to him on the way out of the ringside area! (79%) Chris Jericho defeated William Regal to retain the WWF Intercontinental Title.- A successful title defense by Y2J, as he was able to get out of a Regal Stretch attempt and instead put William Regal into the Walls of Jericho for the submission victory! (77%) Triple H defeated the Undertaker.- This was a streetfight. These two went back and forth on each other, each thinking they’d had the match won at various times. Triple H ended up grabbing a sledge hammer, and hitting Taker right between the eyes with it, followed by a Pedigree and a pinfall. However, ‘Taker sat right up afterwards, and Triple H took off for the back. He won, but didn’t look like the winner that night! (73%) The Hardy Boyz defeated The Dudley Boyz and Edge and Christian in a TLC Match to win the WWF World Tag Team Titles.- You want spots? You can't get better spots than this match gave. Every man went through tables, every man fell off the ladder... these men are going to be feeling this for weeks! After Matt Hardy was able to push both D-Von and Edge off as they were so close to touching those belts, he set the ladder back up for Jeff, while he fought off both Bubba Ray and Christian, Jeff climbed the ladder and grabbed the two belts, allowing them to win the match! (81%) Chris Benoit defeated Kurt Angle.- An absolute mat classic. It was not a long match, only about 12 minutes long, but every second of it was filled with action. There wasn't a single strike thrown, but they combined for about 10 German Suplexes, other suplexes, counters, holds, etc... Angle finally went for the Angle slam and hit it, but instead of being shocked by the impact, Benoit had ahold of Angle's arm, and rolled him through into a Crippler Crossface for the tapout victory! (81%) Steve Austin defeated the Rock to win the WWF World Title.- This was an insane match. These two went after each other with everything they had, because their WrestleMania legacies were on the lines, in addition to that World Heavyweight Championship. After a referee was knocked out, into the ring came Vince McMahon, wearing a referee’s shirt and holding a Steel Chair! He plasters the Rock with the Chair, but then when he told Austin to cover him, Austin flipped him off and gave him the Stone Cold Stunner! Here comes Shane McMahon, and he’s also got a referee’s shirt on! Rock goes for a Rock Bottom, it’s blocked, Austin turns him around, kick, goes for the Stunner, but Rock blocks it and hits a German Suplex! He’s holding Austin down as Shane counts… but wait! Vince is barely moving, but he’s counting too, on the other side! They both count to three at the exact same time! Shane raises Rock’s hand, but Vince is pointing at Austin, saying he’s the winner! Vince tells Howard Finkel to announce Austin as the winner and the new Champion, and he does so! The Rock, and Shane, are irate! Shane’s telling Finkel to announce the Rock, and Finkel won’t do it! Is Austin the new Champ? Apparently so! (89%)

I love the crazy ending of Mania X7... I can see that happening, but sadly we didn't.. I'm surprised that you chose to end Undertaker's streak at 8-1...
But I'm looking forward to what you will do with this though.

Good Wrestlemania, I'm glad you had HHH beat Undertaker; He's possibly the only person I'd ever want to end the streak and he has, I'm looking forward to seeing if you continue the feud. The ending to the Main Event was awesome, I'm looking forward to seeing how you progress with that aswell, the show as a whole was awesome, just wish you would have had E&C go over, damn Hardy's! - Looking forward to more.

This week on RAW is WAR...Both Vince and Shane McMahon will definitely be in the building! Shane has said he has some major announcements to open the show! The main event will see The Cerebral Assassin, Triple H, fresh off his win last night against the Undertaker, take on The Wolverine Chris Benoit, who made Kurt Angle tap out last night! The winner will go on to Backlash next month to take on the WWF World Champion, who at this point, is still recognized as Stone Cold Steve Austin! We will also hear from the Undertaker, the night after his WrestleMania undefeated streak was broken! In addition, we'll see the new World Tag Team Champions the Hardy Boyz, we'll see IC Champion Chris Jericho and European Champion Test in action, and much more!

I love the fact you have the whole 'Who is the World Champion' thing going at the moment; sure its reconised as SCSA but I feel a swerve hehe, Raw looks great, I'm actually hoping Triple H goes onto Backlash, although seeing Benoit challenge Austin (or Rock for that matter) would be a great match. I'm looking forward to seeing how Undertaker reacts to his streak being broken at Mania, should be good to hear from him and I'm looking forward to seeing the WTTC, IC and European Champion in action. Can't wait

The ending to WrestleMania was awesome with the 'who's the champ, find out on RAW!' thing. I liked HHH ending Taker's streak, he/Orton/Kane are the only people I could see CONVINCINGLY ending it. The rest of Mania was good, looking forward to RAW.

WOW! Wasn't expecting 'Takers Streak to end. But if had to be anyone, it had to be Trips. I also enjoy the ending. They should have Austin/Rock/Trips at Backlash. If that happens, I will come to your house and just shake your hand, and then pull a Rocky on the way back to NY.

Shane McMahon is in the ring, and he’s got a parcel in his hand. He asks the Rock to come out. They watch what happened last night at WrestleMania, and Shane tells Rock that he won that match. Unfortunately, after Shane sold his WWF stock to buy WCW, he has no say in reversing that old psycho Vince’s decision. But he does have something else he can do. And the Rock knows what that is… because last week, before he sold his WWF Stock, Shane did a little contract renegotiating. And one of the many, (and he reminds Vince again many) moves he made was releasing the Rock from his WWF deal and signing him to a much more lucrative deal with WCW. And as there is no current WCW Champion under contract, as of right now, the Rock is the new WCW World Heavyweight Champion! So Vince… who can you trust? Who in that locker room hasn’t already signed with WCW? Shane says he’s going to reveal another name by the end of tonight’s show! But Rock, as the new face of WCW, you’ve got tonight off. You’ll be wrestling next, on Thursday night, on UPN. You remember the UPN show, don’t you? Well, tomorrow, all the industry is going to be buzzing, not about another episode of SmackDown, but of the very first WCW Nitro on UPN! (83%) Dean Malenko defeated Crash Holly to retain the WWF Light Heavyweight Title.- Not much of a match, as Malenko just demolished Holly, putting him away with the Texas Cloverleaf within a couple of minutes, and then refusing to let go after the match. (60%) The Right to Censor are in the ring, and Steven Richards wants to call down Val Venis. He tells him he is fired because of his actions last night, and they’re going to teach him a lesson, as they attempt to jump him, but Val’s saved by the APA and Tazz! (79%) Test defeated Perry Saturn to retain the WWF European Title.- Eddie Guerrero tried to get involved in the match, but his interference backfired when he ended up distracting Perry Saturn, allowing Test to hit the Test Drive onto Saturn to retain his title! (53%) Vince McMahon is backstage, and he storms into Triple H’s locker room. He asks Triple H if he’s with the enemies or not. Triple H tells him he just got here and doesn’t know what the hell Vince is talking about. Vince asks Triple H point blank if he’s defected to WCW, and Trips just laughs in his face. He tells Vince that they might not always get along, but unfortunately for Vince, he’s not going anywhere. He’s going to win the #1 Contendership tonight, beat Stone Cold for the Title, and have a long reign doing whatever he wants, whenever he wants. He then asks Vince to leave, as he has to get ready for his Main Event tonight. (84%) Chris Jericho defeated Albert to retain the WWF Intercontinental Title.- The massive Albert thought he had this match in his hands, but it was not to be, as Jericho moved out of the way of a big splash by the big, hairy man, and then hit a Lionsault to get the three count and retain his title! (65%) The Hardy Boyz come down to the ring, with their new WWF World Tag Team Titles, celebrating their victory last night. All of a sudden, The Dudley Boyz theme hits, Matt and Jeff turn to the ramp, but instead of the Dudley Boyz, out come 2 midgets dressed like them! Before the Hardyz can even process this, Edge and Christian attack them from behind! They hit them both with Con Chair Tos, and steal the tag team title belts! They leave throughout the crowd with those belts, stolen property! (77%) The Undertaker comes out to the ring. He says that last night opened his eyes. And that it showed him that he’s lost that killer instinct, when he turned his back on the Dark Side, and the Demons. And he won’t be back until he finds them. But when he does, the WWF had better go on watch, because when he comes back, it’s not going to be pretty. He will rape, pillage and plunder the entire WWF, and everyone will rest… in… peace. (76%) Chris Benoit defeated Triple H.- A very good main event, as these two both wanted that World Title Shot at Backlash. Triple H thought he had it won after a Pedigree, but Benoit’s feet were in the ropes. Triple H decided he’d had enough and went to use his sledgehammer, but as he went to swing it, he missed, and Benoit hooked Triple H in a crucifix and rolled him up for the pinfall! (68%) Chris Benoit is celebrating his win, when here comes Shane McMahon! He’s got a WCW shirt… he offers it to Benoit, and he takes it! Shane then takes the microphone and announces that the #1 Contender to the WCW World Heavyweight Champion and winner of tonight’s match, Chris Benoit! (82%)

ing ace, I predicted most things correctly (Taker's gimmick reverse, Benoit was my pick, Rock in WCW). This is seriously kick-ass, even after 2 shows. I love how realistic your diaries are and how they are well written. I look forward to Nitro and Smackdown. Keep it up.

If you end this...you die.

One thing I might not've explained well, since Chaz misunderstood it, is one of the deals Shane renegotiated was swiping the SmackDown time slot from UPN, so SmackDown is no more... it's RAW, Nitro, and Heat.

I loved Raw, i can't wait to see what Taker does next and Benoit joining WCW shocked me. I wonder, if you might have someone "join" WCW but really be with WWF like Angle did, but who knows. Looking forward to WCW Nitro.

This week on WCW Nitro!In our main event, we will see the two men who face off for the WCW World Title at Backlash, the Rock and Chris Benoit, take each other on in a Dream Partners match! These men can choose anyone in the wrestling world to partner up with them... who will they choose? One of the first teams that took advantage of the opportunity to jump to WCW was Lo Down! They feel they weren't getting the respect they deserved in the WWF, and will have the opportunity to take on the WCW World Tag Team Champions Chuck Palumbo and Sean O'Haire! Will the new team walk away with the titles? Or will O'Haire and Palumbo come out victorious? Hugh Morrus will take on the massive Mike Awesome! "Sugar" Shane Helms will defend his WCW Cruiserweight Title against Billy Kidman! WCW Owner Shane McMahon has also promised that there will be one more jump from the WWF, at least one major signing announced, and much more, this week on Nitro!

Steve Blackman defeated Johnny the Bull.- The first person who jumped from the WWF to WCW was martial arts expert Steve Blackman! Johnny the Bull issued an open challenge at the opening of the show, but he wasn’t expecting someone like Blackman to answer the challenge! It was a decently competitive match, but the Bull wasn’t prepared for the surprise of Blackman, and after a Scissor Thrust Kick, the dangerous martial arts expert won his WCW debut! (69%) A video played, showing the Great Muta in his previous WCW stints. It then cut to a room with a man in full robe and a large hood over his head… he quickly removed the hood and shot green mist all over the camera lens! And then, the man said three word… “Muta… is… coming!” (71%) Shane Helms defeated Billy Kidman to retain the WCW Cruiserweight Title.-A very solid back and forth match, with lots of high flying and lots of action. The world thought Billy Kidman had the match, and the title won when he hit a Shooting Star Press, but Helms was in the ropes. Helms took advantage of the confusion to hit Kidman with the Vertebreaker and retain the title! (70%) Stacy Kiebler is out in the ring, and had the mic. She wanted to introduce the crowd to the next WCW World Heavyweight Champion, the sexiest man in World Championship Wrestling, the closest thing to perfection any of the rednecks in the audience will ever see… Shawn Stasiak! Stasiak came out and the two of them taunted the crowd. (81%) Lo Down defeated Chuck Palumbo and Sean O’Haire to win the WCW World Tag Team Titles.- Lo Down have abandoned the turbans and baggy pants for a more traditional matching pants look. The new look didn’t seem to help them much in the beginning, as the tag team champions outmatched them in size and strength. However, never discount the advantage Tiger Ali Singh brings to his team. Although he was not at ringside as the match began, he was in the crowd, and made himself known when he distracted Chuck Palumbo by throwing a coke in his face! When Palumbo turned all of his attention to Tiger, Lo Down attacked with a chair, then threw him back in the ring and hit the Frog Splash to win the WCW World Tag Team Titles! (72%) Tiger Ali Singh and the new Tag Team Champions are backstage, and they are gloating! This is why they signed with World Championship Wrestling! They will not be discriminated against here. They showed tonight why they are the best tag team in the world, and they are going to be holding these titles for a very long time! (58%) Jamie Knoble defeated Chris Kanyon.Kanyon came out and did his “Who bettah den Kanyon?” shtick, but before the crowd could answer, Knoble’s music played and he made his way out to the ring. Kanyon thought this had to be a joke, and he started the match with an outstretched arm on Knoble’s forehead… but Jamie then turned it into an armdrag and slapped Kanyon in the face! Kanyon then took the match much more seriously, but not as much as Knoble, as he saw this, rightfully so, as the opportunity to make a name for himself! He hit the Tombstone Piledriver and picked up the HUGE upset over Kanyon! (73%) Chris Benoit is backstage. He said, last night, that he could’ve stayed with the WWF. But last year, he walked away from WCW as Champion, without ever losing the title, because at the time he thought it meant nothing to him. But it has consumed him since. Every night, when he sleeps. Every time he walks into that ring. He wants that WCW World Title back around his waist, and at Backlash, he is going to DESTROY the Rock to do it. (75%) Hugh Morrus defeated Mike Awesome.- 2 of WCW’s biggest and best went head to head in this one. Morrus had the match in control early on, until he missed the No Laughing Matter Moonsault. Awesome then took control, but when he went for the Awesome Bomb, Morrus was able to counter it with a back body drop, and then he hit the No Laughing Matter for the win! (70%) It’s time for the Dream Partner’s tag team match. Chris Benoit makes his way out first, as does his partner, Lance Storm. Then, the Rock’s music hits, and he is on the Titan Tron. The Rock then says that he was a WCW fan when he was a kid, and it was all because of one man. And when he found out he could team with anyone tonight on Nitro, he knew just the man to call. So he called him up, told him to get out of his contract, and come… and believe it or not, he did. The Rock’s kinda persuasive like that. I don’t know if you know it, but people like The Rock. So tonight, his tag team partner is the Man… Called… Sting! (99%) Chris Benoit and Lance Storm defeated Sting and the Rock.- An absolutely great, spirited tag. Sting came in like a house of fire and took out the Canadians early, but that didn’t last as he got winded, and Benoit and Storm used lots of double teaming moves to take the advantage. They seemed to know what the other was going to do, and it definitely paid off in this match. The Rock ended up hitting the Rock Bottom, but Storm broke up the pinfall on Benoit. Sting came in to help his partner, but the Rock ended up getting tossed, leaving Sting alone… and while Rocky was in pain on the outside, Benoit and Storm hit a combination Canadian Maple Leaf/Crippler Crossface to get the tapout and the win! (84%)

The Yung Dragons defeated Lash LeRoux and Shannon Moore when Kaz Hayashi pinned Shannon Moore with a Kaz Driver. (76%) A video showing what’s happened between Val Venis and Steven Richards since WrestleMania, followed by the graphic “Venis vs. Richards – This week on RAW is WAR.” (67%) Right to Censor defeated Funaki, K-Kwik, and Road Dogg when Steven Richards pinned Road Dogg after the Steven Kick. (64%) A video is played, showing the Hardy Boyz winning the TLC match at WrestleMania, followed by Edge and Christian stealing the belts this past week on RAW. (74%) Stacy Keibler and Shawn Stasiak were backstage, and talked about how this week, the WCW Nitro audience would be blessed with his presence as he takes his first steps towards immortality. (77%) Mike Sanders and Reno defeated Elix Skipper and Kid Romeo when Reno pinned Elix Skipper after the Roll the Dice. (68%) Coming this week to WCW Nitro… The American Nightmare, Dustin Rhodes! (76%) Raven defeated Al Snow with the Evenflow to retain the WWF Hardcore Title. (73%)

Backlash is already looking great. Nitro was good, I liked Blackman jumping to WCW. Can't wait to see who the next two are to jump to WCW. Here's hoping HHH kills Jericho, and that Eddie wins the European title.
