BI-LO Center, Greenville, SC
Fall From Grace
Written by Paul Klimchuk
24hrs after blood, sweat and desire painted the canvas in Miami Florida RSM Monday Night Nitro rolled into Flair Country inside the sold out BI-LO Center from Greenville South Carolina. So the man himself former 16 time Worlds Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair received a resounding ovation. With a big grin on his face the Nature Boy said how great it was to be back home, back in the spotlight, back in a winning state and back with a man that will become the greatest Champion that the wrestling world has ever seen. A future 16 time, hell no 20 time World Heavyweight Champion, the true meaning of evolution Chris Sabin. Fans I Greenville were a little bit more respectful to Flair’s newest product as Sabin received for the most part positive welcomes. Both men hugged in the center of the squared circle. Sabin took to the mic and said when a ledged like Ric Flair says all those things about you like that most people would say its not true but let be honest its all true, because last night at Summer Slam I defeated the so called true animal named Bastia, I became the next animal in this ring and for that I deserve to become the next Worlds Heavyweight Champion. Speaking about Champions fans came to their seats as the King of Kings, The Game but better known as the number one contender for the Title Triple H made his way into the ring and looked both former evolution team mates in the eye and smiled, in fact even chuckled a little. The Game reminded everyone that last night in a match that neither Kurt Angle or the rest of the roster will never forget. And come Halloween Havoc the Undertaker won’t forget the day the Game beat him one, to three to reclaim what has always been mine. Flair responded by saying that was Hunters problem always looking out for himself, an old King ,a retired game and a stale champion. Ric said it was guys like Chris Sabin on the cutting edge of greatness but were always stopped by egomaniacs like you Hunter. Hell Evolution was created to stop guys like Randy, Bastia and Sabin from making it to the top. They were just there to hold you up until you got to afraid of what they might be and then kicked them out, all expect for Sabin over here and last night he proved.....Hunter got in Flairs face and said last night all Sabin proved was that he’s got more brains then Bastia ever did as you had a has been old man distract the ref long enough to hit your cradle shock to pin a big dumb animal. So congratulation you did it but that doesn’t make you championship material kid, infact you’ve never ever even played the Game yet and if you want to all you have to do is ask. Fans cheer as Sabin and Hunter stood face to face but it was all broken up as the Animal and former Worlds Champion Bastia made his way into the ring and took down Ric Falir as Sabin brawled with HHH. Fans booed as officials broke up the four men as Stephanie McMahon made her way onto the stage as she smiled and said since all four of you want to fight tonight here in Greenville well you all will because tonight in a tag team match it will be Ric Flair and Chris Sabin to face the Team of Bastia and Triple H . Fans cheer as Bastia and the Game look face to face with each other, while Flair and Sabin grin ear to ear.
With fans pumped up in the arena outside was just as wild as backstage in the parking lot fans cheered as The Coach was standing by with the Heart Break Kid Shawn Michaels. Fans chreed Shawn still a little bruised and beat up from his most recent encounter with Michael Shane. The Coach asked Shawn how it felt to lose to a younger, more athletic and a much more handsome man then himself. Shawn swallowed his pride and said it was an absolute honor and privilege to once again compete in a ladder match that will stand the test of time in front of all you my fans However Coach when you say more handsome then me well then that’s.....defiantly what he meant Shawn, fans give a mixed reaction as Chris Jerchico steps into frame. Yes Shawn Chris stated how does it feel to loose to a younger and much more talented superstar then yourself? Must feel really bad huh? In fact I’ll bet that it must be eating you up inside, yeah I mean the Show Stopper, The Main Event, the so called icon. Loses not only to a younger family member but loses in his match a ladder match. But I digress in fact Coach I insist you talk to a man that won his match at Summer Slam, Me The King of the World Chris Jerchico. Fans cheer as Shawn reminds everyone that Chris via DQ as that black eye shows. Fans cheer as Chris says what about it. Shawn replies if your so interested in showing the world you’re a winner then maybe you’ll join me in my four on one handy cap match with Team Canada tonight which will include Bobby Rode. Fans scream at that announcement as Y2J asks Shawn why and HBK replies because he is the Show Stopper.
With that announcement made in the ring the action began and it featured some of the very best Light Heavy Weight as a Fatal Four Way match was under way with Helms, Kid Kash, Shannon Moore and Rey Mysterio. The action was fast paced from the moment the bell rung, it all started out with Mysterio jumping onto the third rope and taking out Kash via the top rope with a hurricrana. With both men down Moore and Helms took one anther on with Helms gaining the upper hand after a series of rights Moore was sent hard into the corner and with Helms looking for the knock out shot but Moore ducked and sent Helms over the top and crashing onto a recovering Mysterio and Kash. The dives would continue as Shannon then took to the air landing a somersault dive knocking all four men out. Fans were on there feet as Moore was the first to his before climbing back on the ring arpron and looking for a cross body but all he found was a triple drop kick from three men. With More out Mysterio seemed to be next on the list as Helms and Kash rammed Rey’s face into the steel ring post. Fans showed their anger booing both men as Helms too advantage by sending Kash straight into the guardrail before sliding him back into the ring and looking for the win but Kash would kick out at two. Helms then had his way with Kid with three hard left and rights right into Kash’s temple before standing him up and taking him down with the Shining Wizard taking Kash’s head off. Fans thought the end was near as Helms had the cover until from the third rope spring boarded Rey Mysterio landing the Senton Leg Drop right on Helms neck breaking up the count. With the momentum on his side Rey sent Helms into the ropes and ducked him coming back and landed a spring board DDT. Fans cheered Rey looked to call the 619and nailed it right on Helms face but as Rey went into the air he came down with tremendous impact with a neck breaker in the air via Shannon Moore. Fans were loving all the excitement as Shannon Moore had the upper hand at least until he was low blowed via a recovering Kash before Kid landed the Brain Buster on Shannon as once again all four men were down on the matt. It was after a count of five as all four men made their way towards the rope to pull themselves up and then were once again at it. This time however Rey Mysterio and Shannon Moore teamed up as Kid Kash was thrown over the top rope and quickly followed by Shannon Moore nailing a Halo DDT from the top rope on Kash with both men down on the outside it was down to Helms and Mysterio with both men traded rights and lefts in the center of the ring as Rey looked for a spin kick Helms ducked and landed a wicked DDT before standing off and posing for the fans who booed the former champion as Helms climbed the top rope and landed a huge swing neck break and had the cover but fans had something to cheer for as Rey kicked out before the three. Helms furious push ref Nick Patrick down knocking him out as Helms smiled and took a chair via ringside and looked to strike Rey down until Big Papa Pump Scott Steiner ran down and struck Helms in the back of the head with a chair he brought cracking Helm neck. Fans gave a mixed reaction as Big Papa set up the chair and then T-Bone Suplex Helms right through it and placed Rey on Helms as the ref then counted the one, two, three. Rey confused just looked down as Scot looked back and smiled.
Some one who certainly wasn’t smiling was Kurt Angle especially since the Wrestling Machine lost his number one contenders match last night and looked to take things out on a man that certainly wasn’t smiling nor was he even standing at least that’s how many people saw him after Summer Slam in that House of Fun Match Raven. Fans were in awe and cheered down a former ECW Champion. However it would all end there as Angle not too banged up after his match with HHH. Went straight to work on Raven with take down after take down before landing hard rights on Raven’s forehead reopening the cut in his head with blood spilling everywhere. Fans booed as Angle then slapped Raven in the face before slapping him again and landing a Belly to Belly Back Suplex as Kurt went for the sure pin he let Raven kick out. Raven bloody and bruised became broken as Kurt took down the straps and Angle Slammed Raven over the top rope and onto the floor below. Fans continued to boo as Angle taunted them with a mock Raven taunt before sliding to the outside breaking the count and looking to ram Raven face first into the ring post but Raven would send Kurt there instead and then would shock all the fans as Raven would nail the Raven Effect DDT on Angle face first on the steel steps. With both men down the count was up to seven but Raven would drag his body into the ring braking the count before sliding back out and picking Angle up before slamming him back first into the ring post getting a near two count. The Raven chants began filling the BI-LO Center as Raven taunted Angle for his own Angle Slam but it was to be for not as Raven had Angle up the Olympic Gold Mealiest reversed and sent Raven again over the top rope this time with a DDT. Fans booed as Angle showed a wicked grin as he sent Raven back inside the ring and off the ropes and conceiting a huge Belly to Belly Suplex and then a German before Angle again took the straps down and landing the Angle Slam in the middle of the ring. So with nowhere to go Kurt locked in the Ankle Lock as Raven spilling soo much blood had no choice but to tap, at least that’s how Angle saw it but Raven pulled towards the ropes which Angle pulled back from. So for an amazing three minutes Raven some how fought off the pain and did not tap out until he finally fainted from the loss of blood as the ref rang the bell. But Kurt wouldn’t stop there as he screamed to a knocked out Raven that he should have tapped out because he was now going to get extreme. Fans booed as Angle too a steel chair and cracked over and over again on Raven’s back and neck before setting the chair up and nailing a second Angle Slam on it. Fans were even more upset as Kurt continued to beat down on Raven by taking a page out of the ECW Champion play book and spilling a bag of thumb tacks onto the ring and for a Third Time landed the Angle Slam on Raven from the second rope right into the tacks. The crowd chanted Holy Shit and ECW and cheered as RVD, Sabu and Benoit members of the ECW Alliance came down to the ring chasing out Angle and checking on Raven. Fans booed as Angle was on the stage laughing at the mayhem he had caused while Benoit just stared down Kurt.
Backstage fans cheered as Maria was shown talking to Christopher Daniels and asking Chris about his match tonight against a former five time WCW Champion Booker T. Chris went on to say it would be a match no one would forget as Daniels said it would be this match that would reinsert him back into TV Title contention. Because after he would get the one, two, three on Booker T Stephanie would have no other choice then to make the match of the Fallen Angle Christopher Daniels to face none other.....then a pathic jobber named Jerry Lynn. Fans booed as former Intercontinental Champion and Tag Team Champion Edge stepped into focus and grinned as he continued by saying that it would be him and not some fallen angle that faces Michael Shane for the TV Title because we all know that th best thing on TV is Edge. Daniels smiled and actually agreed because the best thing on tv is Edge...getting the taste slapped out of his mouth. And with that Daniels sent Edge down with a hard right before walking away leaving Edge looking towards the cameras with a nasty look on his face. Staying backstage fans cheered as Shelton Benjamin was shown talking to the GM Stephanie and pleading for a match tonight but the General Manger asked Shelton what he had done in the past two months to gain him a match in prime time. Unfortunately for Shelton there wasn’t much to say and left Stephanie’s office with his head down but that was a big mistake as fellow Honor Society Member Mark Jindrak and Garrison Cade rushed up behind Shelton and sent him straight through a wall with a double Spear. Fans booed as Jindrak said now Shelton has something to be proud about which is just anther victim of the Honor Society. Fans booed as the tag team left the scene while Stephanie in shock called for some help for Benjamin.
Keeping with tag team with evil intension up next was the four on one handy cap match which featured Team Canada Team Mates Petty Williams, Eric Young, A1 and Booby Rode as they face off against a man that received a standing ovation at Summer Slam and here tonight in Greenville as HBK headed down the ramp and stared into the ring but the question remained would Y2J come and be the help HBK needed or not. Well things were answered as the lights came on and the bell rug without any sing of Y2J. Well fans began chanting HBK....HBK...HBK, as the match was under way with Shawn trading punches back and forth with A1 before being sent into the ropes and avoiding contact before bouncing back with a flying forearm in the center of the ring. Shawn kept the advantage on his side as he began working of the legs of A1 stomping away before locking in a half Boston Crab which was quickly broken up via Williams with a kick to the back of Shawn’s head. Fans booed as William was then tagged in and began working over Shawn with a flurry of rights before sending Shawn into the corner and landing a top rope sun set flip for a near fall. HBK looked to fight back after Williams pissed a spin kick Shawn came back with own knocking some teeth for Petty’s mouth before nailing a gutwrench suplex and then an atomic drop before Shawn went to scale the turnbuckle for the elbow, Eric Young shoved Shawn off as HBK landed face first onto the guardrail outside. Fans booed as Williams had the ref distracted as Young and A1 worked together and sent Shawn face first into Spanish announce table with a double face. buster before rapping the Canadian flag over Shawn’s body. Fans booed as Williams leaves the ring sends Shawn into the ring and taunts for the Canadian Destroyer and looks but HBK lands an unseen low blow sending Williams to his knees as Shawn then musters up a drop kick knocking William’s teeth down his mouth. The count is on with Petty tagging in a fresh Eric Young who dives from the top rope with a elbow drop on Shawn for a near fall, Young mounts HBK with a few lefts before standing Shawn up and knocking hi back down with a modified STO leading into a rear naked chock in the middle of the ring as Shawn begins to fade the ref lowers his arm twice but before it can come down for a third time. Shawn keeps it up and begins to stand up with Young still on his back Shawn drops him down from the second rope before landing his own elbow drop and nips up as Shawn tunes up the band and looks for some Sweet Chin Music but as Shawn has Eric in sights Rode comes up from behind and levels Shawn with the Northern Lairit. The boos continue as Williams slides in a steel chair as Rode throws the ref out of the ring behind his back as Young corks Shawn right in the rib cage before landing a shot on the back of HBK’s neck. Young smiling begins to sing the Canadian Anthem over a fallen HBK before Rode gets tagged in legal this time as Bobby just stands around Shawn before landing a wicked Chair shot on Shawn’s left leg sending him back o the canvas as the 230 pounder laughs with his Canadian counter parts as Shawn begins crawling to his corner but realizes he has no one to tag until its too late as Bobby lands a high knee sending Shawn to the outside from he bottom rope, fans cheer as for a brief second cameras show Y2J watching the match in the back and leaving the locker room area with a steel chair in hand.

Fans jumped out of their seats as Shawn looked for the ping but it was broken up via Williams as Petty took Shawn up and landed the Canadian Destroyer as A1 then took to the top rope and landed a leg drop. Fans booed as Rode covered Michaels but Shawn got a foot on the rope. Angry Rode called for the chair as Young held Shawn Bobby struck but instead of Shawn he caught Eric and the ref who stood behind Young. Shawn with chair in hand corked both William’s and A1 before throwing the chair back to Rode and kicking it in with a third Sweet Chin Music. Fans cheered as Shawn fell on Rode as the ref made the count as Shawn won the match. However Team Canad hit the ring and began stomping away on HBK until Y2J with char in hand chased them away. The cheers came on even stronger as Jerhico stood Shawn up and raised his hand before hugging Shawn as HBK and Y2J stood tall in the ring.
