This Week!: AMW vs. Shane/Kazarian!

TEAM JAPAN (MIYAMOTO and NOSAWA) vs. TRIPLE X (CHRISTOPHER DANIELS and PRIMETIME)
I'll be referring to the Fox Box clock for this, instead of my VCR timer. Daniels and Miyamoto start, circle, Daniels goes for the lockup but Miyamoto rolls out of the way and spits red mist into the air. Daniels has his shoulder bandages. Lockup, Daniels with a headlock, whipped into the ropes and Daniels gets a shoulderblock. Daniels off the ropes, Miyamoto ducks and Daniels somersaults off of him. Daniels with an armdrag, holding on with an armbar. Standing up, Miyamoto rakes the eyes and irish whips Daniels. Miyamoto leapfrogs the first time around, and a kick is caught the second time. Daniels spins Miyamoto around and goes for a clothesline, but Miyamoto again rolls out of the way and hits a dropkick. Miyamoto with a dragon screw, tag to Nosawa. Nosawa stomping the leg in the corner. This week's judge is DUSTY RHODES. Daniels with a right and a snapmare, roll over to his corner where he tags to Primetime. Primetime with some clubbing rights and a spinkick to the gut. Picks him up, irish whip, spinkick ducked. Skipper charges Nosawa near the ropes and gets back body dropped onto the apron. Skipper blocks a Nosawa right and follow up with the dreaded....slip off of the apron hahahahahaha. BAHAHAHAHAHAHA. So...Skipper kicks Nosawa in the head. Comes back in, kicks him in the back, cover for two. Picks him up, head to the turnbuckle, tag to Daniels. Skipper kicks away, Daniels tags in and does the same. Daniels tags Skipper, Skipper keeps it going. Some more kicks, and Skipper tags out to Daniels. Daniels with a scoop aaand a slam. Then goes to the apron and jumps back in with an elbowdrop for two. Irish whip to the corner, Daniel charge eats boot. Nosawa with a Shining-Wizard like manuever that I think Kenzo was trying to do last night and a tag to Miyamoto. Miyamoto picks him up and brings him down with a throat thrust. Throat thrust on the ground, and a stomp. Picks him up, eye poke, punch to the head. Chop to the neck, another, and a third. These aren't so great. Tag to Nosawa, kick, right, right, irish whip, unorthodox leg lariat for two. Tag to Miyamoto, Nosawa with a stomp, double irish whip, Miyamoto with a drop toe hold, Nosawa with a legdrop, Miyamoto with a camel clutch as Nosawa comes off the ropes and dropkicks him in the face. Miyamoto with a stomp, picks him up. Chop, kick, Daniels blocks another kick and hits an STO. Both men crawling over, Nosawa and Skipper in. Skipper charges with a clothesline, another. Spinkick gets two. Nosawa pops up with a kick to the gut and throws Skipper out, but Skipper hangs on to the top rope and lands on the apron. Both Japanese in, Skipper somersaults in and clotheslines them both down. Nosawa kick caught, spinebuster, cover broken up by Miyamoto. Daniels clotheslines Miyamoto down, and the referee is occupied with Daniels now. Miyamoto gets up and tries the green mist on Skipper, but Skipper ducks and Nosawa gets the mist instead. Oh, cruel fate. Miyamoto is like "Whaaaa" as Skipper tags in Daniels, who comes in with a running enziguiri. Powerplex (Skipper suplex/Daniels powerbomb) on Nosawa, goodnight. (05'39") But wait, here's TEAM CANADA coming to ringside, but they get stopped by security. Apparently there's some controversy or some crap about last Wednesday, whatever.

UP NEXT: JEFF HAMMOND TALKS TO JEFF JARRETT

WEDNESDAY JEFF HARDY

commercials

Hammond and Jarrett are in directors' chairs in the empty arena for the "Six Points of Impact". Which is apparently six questions. Let's paraphrase:

1. Why King of the Mountain? Because Jeff Jarrett won that match.

2. Why the Asylum? It's his domain.

3. Is Vince Russo a puppet for Zbyszko and Rhodes? Uhhhh Russo is a desperate man or something.

4. Stuff about the NWA belt being prestigious.

5. Monty Brown? He is not in Jeff Jarrett's league.

6. Jeff Hardy? Jarrett might take him out like he did with Hogan and Sting.

Hey it's Tenay and West BUY THE PPV BUY THE PPV BUY THE PPV
