WCW Worldwide - Saturday, 02/05/00

You'd think someone would bother to take out that Chris Benoit guy from the opening.

"He'll see the stars of tomorrow, but right now, let's go to the real star of tomorrow, Sid."
Nice way to bury the talent, dude.
Every time Tony says "Roadblock match", I remember that god-like wrestler.
Back to Nitro 1/24:

Why in the world would Charles Robinson think Sid got hit with the guitar if a shard of it's still lying on Nash's chest?

I mean, that count out was happening right in front of the announcers, but they don't realize that till two days later?

Knobbs tricked Finley, causing him to lose the match for a title shot to Bam Bam Bigelow.
Bigelow faces Knobbs at Superbrawl.
That's about the extent of how much I care, so I zone out and you don't get any goofy lines from this segment.
Except nothing that Bigelow (in match from Thunder 1/26) didn't even come close to hitting to the Greetings...

The way they hype this "Bobby visits the Power Plant", I'm just waiting for a swerve.
Tony says "roadblock" again.
Did I just see Eddie in the background video? I think I did.

And boy, this dialogue sounds weird.
Or normal for Sid:
Sid: "Some people say 'Sid, you are the Millennium Man, do you stand on the highest mountain' I say 'No man should cast a stone to knock me down, for I am the master (HaHaHaHa!) and ruler of the world'.
What the HECK does that mean?

No Mike Tenay this week, which confuses Hudson.
"It's hard to get hard work here on Worldwide"
I swear I've recapped this match up before...
Walker goes for a takedown, but comes up empty.
Lockup into the corner, break.
Drop toe hold by Horowitz, Walker reverses it on the mat to a hammerlock. Barry to the ropes.
Your ref is Mark "Sometimes Evil" Johnson.
Horowitz with a waistlock, reversal, followed by a few more reversals that lead to an escape and nothing.
Tenay's apparently stuck at catering.
Lockup, side headlock by Walker.
Horowitz with a wristlock followed by a hair pull.
Wow, this is a slow start.
I mean, if they were going into a fifteen minute match, it'd be good and all.
But I don't think we're going five.
Horowitz with some forearms, whip, lift, Barry with a good behind, then followed by a backbreaker, and double stomp.
Barry with a knee lift.
Decent 'Barry sucks' chant.
Barry with a Northern Lights Suplex, 2 count.
Barry with a back rake, kick, European Uppercut, headbutt, cross whip, run in, right into an elbow.
Walker with fists, whip, back elbow.
Horowitz begs off, but no go.
Walker with a front slam, jumps to the top rope, walks the ropes, diving lariat, and 3.
Your Winner: Bobby Walker (4:01)
You know, I think Walker's better than Iaukea.

Wow, two matches.
I know for sure that it'll be a swerve for the Power Plant segment.
Tenay's still not back.
Hudson says "RollerDerby" for some reason.
Now, the Demon's supposed to be contracted for 14 appearances...
...I wonder how many he has left.
And then, will we see the return of MVP?
The Demon with an armbar, then an double leg sweep.
The Demon with stomps.
Hudson is far more interested in Tenay's whereabouts then this match.
The Demon with a double underhook suplex.
The Demon with forearms, cross whip, elbow into the corner.
The Demon pulls Cornell's pony tail.
The Demon with a whip, kick, off the ropes and a kneelift.
Your ref is Mickey Jay.
The Demon with a snap suplex, cross whip, reversed, the Demon with a big boot.
The Demon misses a clothesline, Cornell with a dropkick that only dazes the Demon, Demon knocks him down.
The Demon with a cross whip, Cornell rebounds, the Demon with a chicken wing slam

Bobby's finally off to the Power Plant.
Well, after walking around the studio for a while.
We finally go to Bobby, who's just outside the studio.
Bobby talks to his camera crew.
This is so 'bad comedy' segment, in case you couldn't guess.
Bobby gets lost looking for the Power Plant, and gets locked inside a fence.
Bobby yells for a someone to come unlock him.
Maybe if the camera guy who's a foot away from him (and who we saw lock the door) let him out, we'd be better off.
Tony apologizes for Bobby getting lost, and that he'll get it right next week.

I'd like an apology for wasting time on something I only marginally care about for two (soon to be three) weeks going.
