The opening Nitro intro plays and then pyro erupts throughout the arena. Scott Hudson and Tony Schiavone welcome us to the Greed fallout edition of WCW Monday Nitro!
The current reigning WCW World Heavyweight Champion, Scott Steiner, Ric Flair, Jeff Jarrett, Road Warrior Animal, Lex Luger, Buff Bagwell, Rick Steiner and Midajah, otherwise known as The Magnificent Seven, make their way down to the ring. Steiner says he has taken out anyone who got in his way. He's taken out Sting, Goldberg, Sid Vicious, Diamond Dallas Page and Kevin Nash and the list will continue to grow the more people cross him and The Magnificent Seven. Flair gets on the mic and calls out Shane Douglas. Douglas appears with the lovely Torrie Wilson on his arm. Flair asks Douglas why he cost Rick Steiner the US Title last night at Greed. Douglas tells Flair that week after week he tried to show himself as a worthy main event star and week after week he was left off the show. So he decided to target the man who took his US Title to make a statement. Douglas says that he wants Rick Steiner tonight to prove he is the Franchise Player that will take over WCW, but Flair denies Douglas of the match. Booker T appears and talks about how he gave Scott Steiner the fight of his life two weeks ago on Nitro when they brawled all the way to outside arena. Booker says that Steiner knows Booker is the only man who can dethrone him of his title, but Steiner won't give him a title shot because he doesn't want to lose his title. Steiner flips and takes his shirt off before trying to leave the ring, but the rest of The Magnificent Seven restrain him. Flair books The Steiner Brothers vs. Shane Douglas and the US Champion, Booker T for later tonight! Douglas and Booker look at each other wearily as we go to a commercial.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Elix Skipper and Kid Romeo (c) defeated AJ Styles and Air Paris to retain the WCW Cruiserweight Tag Titles.
- Two of the youngest tag teams in WCW took to the ring for a thrilling contest.
- The team of Air Raid impressed with some flashy double team moves and high risk moves.
- Skipper and Romeo were a thrown together team, but they've proved that they can work together.
- Styles went for a Shooting Star Press to Skipper, Romeo and Paris, who were on the outside, but Skipper and Romeo got out of harms way and thus Styles landed on Paris.
- Skipper and Romeo put Styles into the ring before finishing him off with an Overdrive/Moonsault combination.
Ric Flair was shown backstage with Chavo Guerrero, Jr. Flair said that this is his new WCW and he wants all the young, top talent from across the globe in the new WCW. Flair tells Chavo that he has told him for weeks he knows Chavo is a future star and he is one of the many WCW Superstars who he has on his shortlist. Flair tells Chavo he's either with him or against him. Road Warrior Animal, Ric Flair's bodyguard, cracks his knuckles and Chavo looks at him, intimidated. Chavo tells Flair that he is apart of the new WCW.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Shawn Stasiak (w/ Stacy Keibler) defeated Crowbar (w/ Daffney).
- Stasiak came out tossing his 8x10's into the crowd while Stacy Keibler followed closely behind in a skimpy dress.
- The maniac duo of Crowbar and Daffney came out, with Daffney screaming while waving sparklers around.
- Stasiak and Keibler were disgusted to even be close to Daffney and Crowbar and they left the ring as soon as the crazy duo entered.
- When Crowbar was dominating, Keibler got onto the apron with hopes of Stasiak regaining control, but instead Daffney slid into the ring and hit the Frankenscreamer onto Stasiak before Crowbar made the cover.
- Fortunately for Keibler, Stasiak was able to kick out. A few moments later and Crowbar was hit with a vicious DDT.
Ric Flair was with Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell, otherwise known as Totally Buff. Flair told the duo that they not only disappointed him, but they embarrassed The Magnificent Seven after losing to Chuck Palumbo and Sean O'Haire in 54 seconds. Flair says that he knows they are better than that and that's why he has booked them in a match with one of Flair's arch rivals - The Cat. Luger and Bagwell will take on the WCW commissioner The Cat and his buddy, MI Smooth!
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell defeated MI Smooth and The Cat (w/ Ms. Jones).
- The Cat was on a high after beating Chris Kanyon just 24 hours ago at Greed.
- The team of Totally Buffed were not in the slightest happy after they lost to The Natural Born Thrillers in 54 seconds.
- MI Smooth used his size advantage to dominate Bagwell in the early going, but after poking Smooth in the eyes, Bagwell took control.
- Luger worked over The Cat's right leg, but The Cat wouldn't stay down and took the fight to Luger. The Cat bounced off the ropes but was met with a Big Boot from Luger.
- The Cat made the hot tag to Smooth who quickly took down Bagwell and Luger with left and rights.
- Smooth perched Bagwell on the top rope before knocking Luger off the apron. When Smooth turned around, Bagwell hit the Buff Blockbuster for the three.
Bagwell and Luger celebrated their victory as Ms. Jones attended to The Cat and Smooth. Chris Kanyon, The Cat's Greed opponent, slid into the ring and grabbed ahold of Ms. Jones. Kanyon proceeded to hit Jones with the Flatliner. The Cat hit a Karate Kick to Kanyon's temple and Kanyon rolled out of the ring. The Cat attended to Ms. Jones as Tony Schiavone ranted about Kanyon.
The new WCW Cruiserweight Champion, "Sugar" Shane Helms was shown backstage with his new title slung over his shoulder. Helms is talking with a backstage worker when he is blindsided by Road Warrior Animal. He sent Helms back first into a door before choking him to the ground. Chavo Guerrero, Jr. cockily swaggered up to Helms and told him he's envoking his rematch clause tonight, so Helms better get ready. Chavo headed off with Animal as Helms yelled out in pain.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Gene Okerlund interviewed Dusty Rhodes and Dustin Rhodes backstage. The duo spent the interview talking about how Ric Flair may have escaped without kissing Dusty's ass at Greed, but they assure everyone that before The Big Bang, Ric Flair will kiss The American Dream's booty.
Shane Helms (c) defeated Chavo Guerrero, Jr. (w/ Road Warrior Animal) to retain the WCW Cruiserweight Title. (Disqualification)
- Chavo swaggered down to the ring with Road Warrior Animal closely behind.
- Helms came out from the back, favouring his back as he headed down the ramp.
- Chavo worked over Helms' back during the match.
- Chavo eventually hit Helms with the Brainbuster and made the cover. But Helms surprisingly kicked out at two.
- Helms had a sudden burst of energy and hit his trademark moves, including a huge Superkick.
- Helms hit the Vertebreaker and just as he was going to make the cover, Animal got into the ring and dropped the champion with a Big Boot.
As the bell rung, signalling that Helms won the match via disqualification, Animal hit some big powerhouse moves onto Helms. He held Helms up while Guerrero jabbed away at Helms. Animal proceeded to hit Helms with a sickening Sitout Powerbomb. Chavo poses with the Cruiserweight Title over Helms while Road Warrior Animal stands behind him.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Gene Okerlund interviewed Booker T backstage. Booker T said that he took the US Title from Rick Steiner, now he's coming for the WCW World Heavyweight Title and he's going to take that from Scott Steiner. Shane Douglas entered the camera range with the lovely Torrie Wilson. Douglas told Booker T that just because the two of them hate The Magnificent Seven and they're teaming tonight doesn't mean they're friends. Torrie tells Booker T not to expect a Christmas card from either of them before the two head off. Booker looks into the camera and tells Scott Steiner "don't hate the playa.. hate the game".
Tony Schiavone and Scott Hudson hype our main event as we cut to the final commercial of the evening.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Shane Douglas and Booker T (w/ Torrie Wilson) defeated Scott Steiner and Rick Steiner (w/ Midajah).
- We closed Nitro with a tremendous tag team match.
- Booker and Scott Steiner worked really well together and got everyone excited to see them go at it, one on one for the title.
- Rick looked to pin Douglas following a Steiner Driver, but Booker broke up the count.
- Scott looked to finish Booker T off with the Steiner Recleiner, but Booker slid through Steiner's legs and hit Steiner with a Spin Kick. When Steiner was getting to his feet he was hit with the Scissor Kick from Booker.
Booker T celebrated at the fact he just pinned the WCW World Havyweight Champion! Scott Steiner looked around in disbelief while Rick Steiner and Midajah tried to calm him down. Booker T celebrated on the ramp to close the show. |

A well written show, Jordan. I like how your having the lightweights on the show, all the matches shoulda been good. Douglas and Booker T seem like an odd pair, (might have happend in real life, im not a big WCW fan, tbh.) Kinda hard to get into for me because of that as I dont know much of the roster. So I hope you use young stars soon since i'll be able to get into this more. Oh, I liked how Animal used his size to scare the smaller guys like Chavo and Helms. KEEPZ THIS UP.

The opening Thunder video plays before Mike Tenay and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan welcome us to the broadcast. They immediantly talk about Booker T pinning Scott Steiner this past Monday on Nitro. This is Heenan's first night commentating on Thunder.
Jason Jett defeated Reno.
- We kicked off the show with a pretty bad match.
- Jett, better known as EZ Money, has racked up victories since his arrival in WCW and tonight was no different.
- Reno had control in the early going, but Jett took control after a Hurricanrana.
- Jett hit a Legdrop from the second rope for the finish.
COMMERCIAL BREAK[/size] Dustin Rhodes comes down to the ring to a decent pop from the crowd. Rhodes talks about how he and his father, Dusty Rhodes, beat Jeff Jarrett and Ric Flair at Greed yet Flair didn't kiss Dusty's ass like he was supposed to if they won. Dustin says that if Flair listened to them on Nitro, they promised that Flair will kiss Dusty's ass whether he likes it or not. Ric Flair appears on the screen and he looks furious. Flair tells Dustin that he hopes he brought his ring gear because he's in action tonight! Dustin tells Flair to give him any of The Magnificent Seven chums. Flair books Dustin Rhodes vs. Scott Steiner and Jeff Jarrett for later tonight! COMMERCIAL BREAK[/size] Gene Okerlund was backstage with Stacy Keibler, Mark Jindrak and Shawn Stasiak. Stacy put over how amazing Stasiak and Jindrak are as a team and that the tag team division better get ready for Stasirak. Stacy reveals that this Monday on Nitro we will see Stasirak take on Billy Kidman and Rey Misterio, Jr. of The Filthy Animals. Stacy says that Tygress definitely belongs with Rey and Kidman because she is a filthy animal. Lance Storm (w/ Major Gunns and Mike Awesome) defeated Sean O'Haire (w/ Chuck Palumbo).- O'Haire and Palumbo have now transitioned into faces. - Storm and Awesome got alot of heat, although Major Gunns got a good response from the crowd although she tried to get herself some heat. - Both men exchanged momentum from the get-go, but after Storm got out of harms way from a Seanton Bomb, he connected with a vicious Superkick for the victory. COMMERCIAL BREAK[/size] When we return from the commercial, Team Canada were in the hallway celebrating Lance Storm's victory over Sean O'Haire. Storm issued the challenge to The Natural Born Thrillers for The Big Bang - Lance Storm and Mike Awesome vs. Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo for the WCW World Tag Team Championships. Billy Kidman and Rey Misterio, Jr. (w/ Tygress) defeated Chris Daniels and Low Key.- Daniels and Key are in the ring when we return from the commercial. The Filthy Animals make their entrance to a big pop. - Daniels and Key impress alot tonight with their agility and fantastic wrestling. - Key cracks Rey, Jr. with a stiff kick before Chris hits a Rolling Cuter, but Daniels only gets a two. - The Filthy Animals take the victory after Rey hits a Tornado DDT to Key and Kidman hits the Shooting Star Press. COMMERCIAL BREAK[/size] Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo were shown pacing the hallway backstage with their WCW World Tag Team Titles slung over their shoulders. O'Haire said that if Lance Storm and Mike Awesome want a shot at their titles, then they are more than welcome a shot at them. Palumbo says they've beaten the best that WCW has to offer, and at The Big Bang they're going to give the fans what they want and that's to give Team Canada a beating. Scott Steiner and Jeff Jarrett (w/ Midajah) defeated Dustin Rhodes.- The team of Steiner and Jarrett just picked Rhodes apart, although Rhodes did put up one heck of a fight and wouldn't stay down for the duo. - Instead of tagging each other in, the rules were that all three men were in the ring at the same time, which done nothing but help Steiner and Jarrett - as if they needed any help. - During the match, Ric Flair was shown watching the match with a big grin plastered across his face. - After Rhodes kicked out of a Fallaway Slam from Steiner, Midajah got onto the apron and distracted the referee. - Steiner took advantage of this and clocked Rhodes with a lead pipe before locking in the Steiner Recleiner. The referee turned around and Rhodes was out cold. Scott Steiner, Jeff Jarrett and Midajah celebrated over an unconscious Rhodes as the show came to a close.[/font] |

WCW NEWS + NOTES
Reported by Christopher Hammers on March 20, 2001 - 7:49pm
- With the closure of Extreme Championship Wrestling looming, WCW scouts have been signing numerous ex-ECW performers. Believed to be on WCW managements radar is Rob Van Dam, who has held the ECW Television Title. Dawn Marie, Justin Credible, Yoshihiro Tajiri, Steve Corino and Super Crazy have reportedly been in talks with the company.
- WCW.com today announced the releases of the following workers: Brian Knobbs, Jim Duggan, Miss Elizabeth, Tammy Sytch and Terry Funk.
- With the news that nobody has yet to purchase WCW, the current plan is to have the company run until the next Nitro before going on a hiatus until someone buys the company. The company have decided to tape three weeks worth of WCW programming (Nitro and Thunder) this Monday in Panama City, FL. to run until The Big Bang. If the company isn't bought out then the shows that were taped will never surface, but if it is bought out then the shows will air every Monday and Thursday like normal. The Big Bang is planned to go ahead and after that the company will go on a hiatus if someone has not purchased the company. At the moment it looks like Eric Bischoff and Fusient Media Ventures are close to signing the deal.
MORE WCW ROSTER CUTS ON THE WAY?! (>>)

Nitro and Thunder were both good.
Nitro;
Like the opeing segment. Nice Tag match, some good talent in there, hope you push AJ Styles man. Nice segment with Flair and Chavo, nice detail, hoping you do some creative stuff with Naitch in the future. Nice win for Stasiak there. Nice to see Luget and Bagwell get the win in the tag match, nice quick, short, but important details for the match, love the layout and such. Sucks to see Helms win by DQ, like the post match stuff though. Nice main event, hoping that Booker T will win the WCW title soon.
Thunder;
Nice, but odd match with Lance Storm and Sean O'Haire, glad Storm got the win though, cause i cant stand O'Haire. Liking the team of Misterio and Kidman, glad thet got the win. Sounded like a good match there. Still enjoying the layout of the matches, i think its great. Double J and Steiner beating Dustin, good, interesting rules there with no tags needed, definitely put Dustin at a disadvantage.
Overall, awesome shows so far, Jord

Logos look nice.
Nitro: Liking the Styles usage. Can't really see Chavo as a huge star, but I guess you like him due to this and his push in your NWA:TNA diary. Glad Stasiak won, him and Keibler make for a good pairing. Wonder what'll happen with Helms/Chavo. Didn't see that coming with an Animal/Chavo alliance. Booker pinning Steiner made sense and it'll probably lead to a title shot.
Thunder: Really mediocre match to open up the show. Like the backstage segment running down the Filthy Animals there. Glad Storm won there. Heh, funny spelling of Low Key there. Main event was fine, got the point across.

- March 26 2001
The opening Nitro intro plays and then pyro erupts at the top of the ramp. Tonight we're live from Panama City and Nitro is being held outside. Scott Hudson and Tony Schiavone welcome us to WCW Monday Nitro!
Evan Karagias and Shannon Moore defeated Yang and Kaz Hayashi.
- 3 Count make their way down to the ring with an unknown man in a business suit. The duo break into song when they're in the ring as the man in the business suit applauds them before he phones someone on his cellphone.
- Yang and Hayashi come to the ring without their valet Leia Meow who was released last week by the company.
- Both teams put on a high flying spectacle that leave the crowd in awe.
- The man at ringside trips Hayashi up before Moore hits the Bottom's Up and Karagias follows it up with the Outrageous Corkscrew for the victory.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Scott Steiner, Midajah, Jeff Jarrett, Ric Flair and Road Warrior Animal make their way down to the ring to a ton of heat from the crowd. Scott Steiner calls out Booker T and Booker T comes out to the top of the ramp. Steiner tells Booker that he has beat him before and he even put him on the inactive list. Steiner says that Booker's win was a fluke and that it'll be his pleasure to put him back on the inactive list. Booker tells Steiner to shut up before telling him that if it was a fluke he can prove it right now with the WCW World Title on the line! The crowd pop, and Steiner hands his title to Midajah, but Ric Flair buts in and says no over and over again. Flair tells Steiner he'll get his shot at Booker and he can destroy him then. Flair books Booker T vs. Scott Steiner for the WCW World Title at The Big Bang. Both men seem pleased at this. Dustin Rhodes and Dusty Rhodes come out from the back and they stand at the top of the ramp with Booker T. Dustin says that Steiner and Jarrett may have left him down and out on Thunder, but he's still standing. Booker T lays down the challenge - Ric Flair, Jeff Jarrett and Scott Steiner vs. Booker T, Dustin Rhodes and Dusty Rhodes for tonight! Flair says no before Dusty Rhodes makes some chicken noises to the crowds delight. Flair becomes enraged and screams that the match is on! Dusty promises that tonight Ric Flair will finally kiss his big white ass.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Billy Kidman and Rey Misterio, Jr. (w/ Tygress) defeated Mark Jindrak and Shawn Stasiak (w/ Stacy Keibler).
- The team of Stasirak seemed awfully confident going out there tonight since they had the clear size and strength advantage.
- The team of Rey, Jr. and Kidman put on a fantastic display of speed which left both members of Stasirak down on numerous occasions.
- Stacy and Tygress got into a catfight at ringside which left Mark Jindrak to try and break the two up.
- This left Stasiak all alone and he was hit with the Kid Krusher from Kidman.
COMMERCIAL BREAK
Evan Karagias and Shannon Moore were backstage with Gene Okerlund. The man who accompanied them to ringside earlier was pacing around behind them on his cellphone. Gene asked them who the man was before the man hung up on his phone and told Karagias and Moore that he just got them their next number one smash! The man looked at Gene before offering a handshake and saying "I'm Mr. Harris and it's your pleasure to meet me." The trio headed off before a confused Gene sent us back to ringside.
Scott Norton defeated Crowbar (w/ Daffney).[/color] - Norton made an impressive return to WCW tonight, mauling Crowbar in a matter of minutes. - Crowbar hit Norton with some punches, but they had little effect on the 360, 6'3" Norton. - Crowbar fell victim to a sickening Release Powerbomb from Norton. COMMERCIAL BREAKTony Schiavone and Mike Tenay talk about WCW's next PPV - The Big Bang which is live and exclusively on PPV on April 22nd, 2001. They hype Scott Steiner defending the WCW World Title against Booker T. Lance Storm and Mike Awesome challenging Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo for the WCW World Tag Team Titles and Shane Helms defending the WCW Cruiserweight Title against Chavo Guerrero, Jr. Shane Douglas (w/ Torrie Wilson) defeated Hugh Morrus.- Douglas has been playing the tweener role as of late. - Hugh Morrus got a small reaction from the crowd. - Douglas used alot of cheap moves, and Torrie even got a few shots into Morrus. - The crowd eventually got behind Morrus who "hulked up" and took Douglas down. Torrie grabbed Morrus' foot but he pulled her into the ring. - Douglas quickly hit Morrus with the Franchiser for the victory. Shane Douglas celebrated with Torrie Wilson, who twirled around in the ring. Rick Steiner's music played and he came running down the ramp. Douglas and Steiner began to brawl in the ring. Torrie tried to seperate them, but Steiner shoved her to the ground before the two went at it again. Torrie low blowed Steiner before Douglas hit the Franchiser. Douglas and Torrie headed up the ramp as Rick Steiner got to his feet. Steiner levelled Morrus with a huge clothesline. Steiner began to kick the ropes as Douglas and Torrie watched from the top of the ramp. COMMERCIAL BREAKScott Steiner was shown preparing for his six man tag team main event in The Magnificent Seven locker room. Midajah started to talk about the match and Steiner told her that all he knows is "Booker T is a deadman". Booker T, Dusty Rhodes and Dustin Rhodes defeated Scott Steiner, Jeff Jarrett and Ric Flair (w/ Midajah and Road Warrior Animal). (Disqualification)- Surprisngly, this was a solid contest. - Steiner just unleashed all of his rage on Dusty, Dustin and Booker. Steiner hit some impressive T-Bones onto all three of them. - Ric Flair and Dusty went at it at one point and the two put on a comedic showcase. - Booker took Jarrett out of the ring with a Scissors Kick before Dusty and Ric brawled at ringside. Steiner locked in the Steiner Recleiner in on Dustin, but Dustin's foot was under the bottom rope. - Steiner lost this one for his team after refusing to break the Steiner Recleiner he had synched on Dustin Rhodes. Booker T saved Rhodes after hitting Steiner with a nice Spin Kick. Booker knocked Flair down and Flair fell into the bottom turnbuckle. Dusty dropped his pants and Booker and Dustin restrained Ric while Dusty rubbed his ass in Ric Flair's face! The CEO rolled out of the ring and began to slap his face in disgust. Dusty went to do the same to the World Champion, but Jeff Jarrett was able to help Steiner out of the ring. Steiner, Jarrett, Flair and Midajah headed up the ramp yelling at Dusty, Dustin and Booker.[/font] |

WCW Monday Nitro...19th March 2001...Good opening promo with the Magnificent Seven arriving. It was a decent faction, but I hope a superstar breaks away from the faction, and begins to feud with Scott Steiner. Shane Douglas is a babyface here? Wow, never noticed that. Decent match between Elix Skipper and Kid Romeo & Air Raid to kick off the show inside the ring, I hope you make the WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team Championships bigtime in this diary. Decent match between Shawn Stasiak and Crowbar, would of been a decent bout, but nothing too special. Didn't really advance much, to be honest. Nothing too good of a tag team match. Ugh, The Cat and MI Smooth. Glad Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell won. Push Bagwell to the moon, please. Decent WCW World Cruiserweight Championship rematch from Greed, love Shane Helms as champion, please let him have a fighting championship reign. Animal accompanying Chavo Guerrero Jr is interesting. Decent tag team main event to close down the show.
WCW Thursday Thunder...22nd March 2001...Nothing too specacular of an opening contest, could of started in superior ways. Jason Jett I recall being pretty good. Dustin Rhodes in a handicap for the main event, tonight? Interesting. I'd like Dustin Rhodes vs Jeff Jarrett at WCW Big Bang, to be honest. Nothing too good a match with Lance Storm and Sean O'Haire. Chuck Palumbo and O'Haire now faces? Interesting. Woo, Rey Misterio Jr and Billy Kidman are an amazing team. Good they beat enhancement talent, Chris Daniels and Low-Key. Guess you'll try building Daniels and 'Key' up, eh. Decent main event to close down the show.
WCW Monday Nitro...March 26th 2001...Good opening cruiserweight tag team match, Three Count! Glad they defeated Jung Dragons. God I loved the shows from Panama City Beach. Good promo to follow-up, wow, I like the sound of Booker T taking on Scott Steiner at WCW Big Bang. Can sense Booker hopefully picking up the title, there. The Filthy Animals beating the Natural Born Thrillers is fine, seemed decent. Scott Norton returning is magnificent. I loved Norton. Him beating Crowbar is fine - no biggie. Shane Douglas beating Hugh Morrus is fine. I loved his push here, so I hope you continue Morrus'. Decent six-man tag team main event, disqualification finish is very WCW.
