SUMMERSLAM, Year 2

Wow, this card is horrible. Besides the two title matches, I have to change the other four.

Match 1. New Age Outlaws w/ X-Pac vs. Edge and Christian  WWF Tag Team Championship
The newly-turned Edge and Christian get a title shot. I wonder if X-Pac will interfere in the match. Edge and Christian were working well as a team. X-Pac made his first appearance as he gave Mr. Ass some advice. A few minutes later NAO were in control, beating down both Edge and Christian. Gunn made the hot tag to Dogg and Edge did the same. The Outlaws retain after a double gut buster to Christian.

Match 2. WWF vs. WCW - Stone Cold vs. DDP
The dream match that never happened. Stone Cold hit the Lou Thesz Press on DDP. Austin hit a Stunner then a piledriver. Austin reversed DDP into a bulldog and pinned him for the win.


Match 3. Arn Anderson vs. Booker T vs. Chris Jericho  United States Championship
This match was going to be tough for Arn. Jericho left the ring to take a breather while the other two beat each other up. When Jericho got back in the ring, he received a Book End and a DDT by Anderson. Anderson hit Booker with a running neckbeaker and Jericho capitalized by pinning Booker to win the title.

Match 4. WWF vs. WCW - Triple H vs. Bret Hart
The Game had Hart in the Figure Four, but Hart reversed it. Triple H hit a Pedigree but Hart kicked out at 2. To make sure he wouldn't get up, Triple H pulled out a table. Hart was in control, but it didn't last long. Triple H came back and hit another Pedigree to win.


Match 5. Inferno - Undertaker vs. Kane  WWF Championship
How appropriate is it that these two are in an inferno match? The temperature reached 500 degrees a couple of times early in the match, but nothing happened. The fourth time it reached the high point, Taker threw Kane through the fire to retain the belt.

Main Event. Hell in a Cell - Nash vs. Goldberg  WCW Championship
This is the payoff of weeks of build for this match. Nash hit two chokeslams but no pin attempt. Goldberg hit a Jackhammer and got a long 2-count. Goldberg was taking out all the stops trying to win the belt. Nash hit him with the Jackknife. Out of nowhere, Goldberg hit the spear but Nash reversed the Jackhammer. Goldberg then reversed the Jackknife. The match ended with Goldberg hitting a side belly-to-belly at the 3 count.


Recap: That was a great triple threat match. Hart and Triple H put on one hell of a match. The inferno match was ho-hum. That was the best main event my Universe I've seen.
