So. I was a moron and deleted this when it was on my TiVo - but was pointed to a copy on wrestling torrents UK. And now, a month later, I'm getting around to watching it.
entertainment open fireworks
Self Proclaimed World's Greatest Tag Team (489 pounds) vs Kidman and Funaki (423 pounds) - your announcers are Bill and Josh. Bill likes the tag team that's a tag team over the one who isn't - though Josh undercuts the obvious point by dropping that Kidman and Funaki did team up on the last overseas trip. Josh also ends up saying they faced Shelton and Charlie and lost to them, so never mind. Funaki and Shelton to start, circle, loclup? Shelton doesn't want to, and shoves Funaki in the face. Funaki takes offense, right, right, right, whip, reversed into a short knee. Whip, reversed into a short dropkick, dropkick to the head one two NO. Funaki picks up Shelton, armbar, tag to Kidman, Shelton breaks the armbar just in time to take a knee to the midsection, slingshot sunset flip by Kidman one two no. Shelton stops this with a knee, knee, pull Kidman over to tag in Haas. Haas with an armbar, into a hammerlock, Kidman tries to back elbow out, jumping snap mare works. Forearm in the corner, corner whip, reversed, Kidman kip up scissors, but Haas is up first and clotheslining. Shot to Funaki for being on the apron. Slam, no Kidman slips behind into a waistlock, switch, Kidman blocks the German suplex with a bodyscissors, but, in a double bit of bad luck, that reversal sets Charlie up in position for Shelton to complete their Broken Arrow (called!) double team move just as Funaki is arguing with Brian Hebner and preventing him from stopping the double team. Haas stomps the back and sits on, on the ropes. Kidman's left hanging for Haas to do the running sit on, and then cover, one two no. Tag to Shelton - running stomp. Shelton picks Kidman up, side back breaker, stretching Kidman over the knee. Now Shelton covers, one two no. Kidman reaches for a tag but he's far away. Shelton with a straight jacket chinlock. Josh notes that Kidman's own arms are being used to choke him. Josh: "Never really choked myself, hahaha" Bill: "I'd be happy to help you." Kidman able to battle out about after fifteen seconds, off the ropes, duck the clothesline, his the cross body but rolls off instead of covering. Bill says it's because of the back work. Kidman charges for his corner, but Shelton trips him up short and drags Kidman back into his corner. Haas tags himself in and stomps. Hard corner whip. Elbow to the neck. Slam. One two no. Haas with a kneeling bearhug. Kidman battling out with forearms, but Haas stops him with a knee. Haas off the ropes, and Kidman smacks him with a dropkick. Can he make the tag? Bill thinks no. Kidman puling himself using the ropes - tag to Funaki. Funaki ducks the Haas clothesline, right for Haas, double chop for Shelton, kick catch enziguri for Haas, triple spin headscissors for Shelton. Punches for Haas, corner whip, reverse, Haas runs into boots. Funaki to the second rope, slap, Rising Sun one two Shelton breaks it up! Funaki with big punches for Shelton. Slam, no, Funaki slips behind and punches. Whip, reversed, Shelton with a press slam, drop on Haas' knee for a super gutbuster! That'd do it, one two Kidman breaks it up! Shelton forgot about him and was wandering to his corner. Shelton grabs Kidman and punches, corner whip, reversed, Funaki times his bounce off the ropes to catch Shelton on the rebound - bulldog! Josh decides Kidman and Shelton are legal, which is the opposite of true. Kidman dragging Shelton in position, going up - no, missile dropkick on Haas! Josh questions that logic, but that's actually the legal man and now the other legal man is covering him - one two NO! Josh now says Haas is the legal man, kay. Kidman and Funaki with a double whip, double clothesline but Haas ducks it, Kidman gives Shelton a sliding dropkick while Haas goes after Funaki. Kidman back over to help Funaki, whip for Haas, reversed, Haas with a backdrop, Funaki tries to take advantage with a waistlock, waistlock rollup but Hebner is checking on Kidman - Shelton SUPERKICK turns the rollup over, one two three (6:39) SPWGTT celebrate over Funaki's lifeless body. That was quite a superkick.

Shannon Moore (Raleigh, NC, 207 pounds) and who betta than Kanyon (Queens, NY, 242 pounds) vs Spanky & Paul London (no entrance, no introduction, already in the ring) - Josh: "I can call you Billy D., right?" Bill: "You can just call me Bill." Kanyon does his Spanky impression? OHHHH, that is Spanky. London's out fit is the same as the last time he was on this show. Shannon and Paul London to start. Circle. Lockup, into the ropes, London gives the break but Shannon slaps him. Shannon taunting while Jimmy Korderas holds London back. Circle, Shannon with a kick, armbar, wristlock, London reverses into a headlock, Shannon elbows out, blind tag by Spanky, Shannon with a whip, clothesline is ducked, and Shannon takes a double hiptoss. As we note 3 Cruiserweights and Kanyon, Bill: "Interesting point: Kanyon introduced most of the cruiserweights into this industry." Well the guy next to him and the guy in the last match, sure, but? Right. Josh does bring up the Shannon/Kanyon connection. Spanky helps his partner standing moonsault Moore, covers one two no. Spanky right on him with an armbar. Shannon with a hair pull, Spanky tries to get to the ropes to get free but Shannon yanks him down by the hair. Tag to Kanyon, who charges right into an armdrag. Armbar by Spanky, tag to London, Spanky slingshots to the apron to wretch Kanyon's arm over the top rope, then London grabs it for a top rope legdrop on the arm. Tag back to Spanky, slingshot Oklahoma cradle one two no. Announcers put over the similar backgrounds of London and Spanky - both trained by HBK, worked indies, worked Japan (both working Zero One), worked AAA (briefly?) and now they're here. Josh mentions them both being in the 2003 Super 8 Cup as well. Josh has the explain the concept to Bill. Whip, hiptoss into an armbar - trying for a cross armbreaker but Kanyon blocking? - but Shannon rolls it over, and Kanyon lifts Shannon up on his shoulders, dropping him neck first on the top rope.

Spanky turning it, forearms, but a knee stops that. Corner whip, Shannon charges in with a splash but Spanky moves.

Spanky off the ropes, but, Kanyon catches him on the way over - split legged Alabama Slam! Bill: "This is the end, this is the End!" I don't know if that should be uppercased or not, but I do know that Jimmy Korderas knows who the legal man is - and it's not Spanky. While Kanyon is momentarily befuddled he's not getting a count, London grabs him in a crucifix rollup - one two NO! Rights by London, whip, reversed, London collides with Shannon on the apron and stumbles forward - FLATLINER! Josh: "[flatlining sound effect]!" One two Spanky breaks it up!

Shannon rolls to safety as Spanky gets to his feet, walking right into a kick from Kanyon. Kanyon works him over as Korderas tells him that Spanky's not legal. Spanky ducks a clothesline and grabs on, as London gets to his feet - reverse STO/enziguri. Spanky pulls London on top one two three (6:42) Bill says the name of that is "Get Well Soon", and I wish I watched this earlier if that was this early.

Up Next: Rikishi vs Chuck Palumbo
Chuck Palumbo (280 pounds, w/Johnny Stamboli) vs Rikishi (w/Scotty 2 Hotty, already in the ring) - no sleep till WMV is done. You might have noticed some subtle differences - no sponsorship for the "X of the Week" bits is the most obvious (and I swear the Velocity font is slightly different) - as it occurred to me late that this had to be pulled from somewhere besides SpikeTV. It becomes obvious when Josh starts talking about RAW Tour dates in Japan. I think Rikishi might have gotten an entrance we didn't get to see in this setup. Chuck thinks about rushing Rikishi, but changes his mind when he sees that butt. Circle. Lockup, Chuck ends up pushing Rikishi in the corner. Break, for a derisive gesture. Right, is blocked, and Rikishi hits his own. Armbar, reversed into a hammerlock into a headlock. Shot, back with a shoulderblock, Chuck goes down. Rikishi with a right, right, whip, hiptoss blocked, Chuck tries his own and gets clotheslined for being a moron. Chuck retreats to the corner, and gets squashed. He goes down - but pulls himself out to safety. He and Johnny confer. Being counted out. Scotty's got his eye on there. Rikishi leans out and gets punched. That stuns him (!), so Chuck comes in to punch much more. Chuck distracts, Johnny gets in his shots form the outside. Scotty is over that way to argue but too late. Chuck with more punches and a big running boot one two no. Stomp. Picking his pot, off the ropes, running kick to the back. Choke on the ropes. Stomp. Johnny talking trash from the outside. Chuck going for more punches, but Rikishi fighting back. Chuck stops that with knees. Chinlock. Josh predicts that Cena might get the fifth spot on Team Angle! Bill questions if he'd want it. Rikishi elbows out, but Chuck stops that with knees. Chuck going up? Second rope, on the inside. Sunset flip? Chuck moves out of the way just in time of the sit down. Both are down, but Chuck is up quicker. Kick. Right. DISCUS PUNCH! COVER Chuck! Don't argue first! One two NO. Right. Right. Backing up, charging Rikishi in the corner, Rikishi moves and Chuck spears the corner. Scotty leading the claps for Rikishi. Right, right, right, and Chuck goes downs. Clothesline. Thrust kick. Rikishi waiting for his spot, as Chuck wanders into the corner - charging smash but no one's home. Chuck with a big running boot, slow to cover, one two NO. Chuck can't believe it. Chuck has words and some spit for Scotty. Scotty up on the apron to yell, he gets held back by the ref, Johnny in to hold Rikishi (why? He's half out already), Chuck sets up - Urban Jungle Kick nails his partner. Chuck tries to wake him up, but the ref notices and Chuck goes back to work as Johnny is rolled out - superkick by Scotty! Chuck is out, Rikishi is moving. Chuck dragged into position, Rump Shaker gets knees! Chuck inside cradle, arm on the ropes, one two NO. Chuck can't believe that wasn't three either. Scotty get the crowd clapping as Chuck sets up - Jungle Kick is side stepped and Chuck hurts his leg on the top rope. Chuck collapses in the corner, right in position. Running hipcheck in the corner. Rikishi drags him into position once again, Rump Shaker one two three. (8:16)
That's it. Confidential is not next.
