Pro Wrestling Spotlight: PRO WRESTLING’S GREATEST DEFECTIONS

Get him out of here! Somebody call the security guards! What? Get the security and get him out of here.

What is he doing wrong? What is he doing wrong? This is just unabashed arrogance.

Wait.

I think we've got a major problem here.

We have a situation starting here.

Yeah.

A big one.

I want to know what he's doing here.

Well, don't ask me.

Get on the headsets of the truck.

Ask somebody.

Well, I will during the commercial break.

You want me to get my

assistant on it?

Right now, we have got the United States heavyweight champion.

I'm in shock.

I am in shock.

It just doesn't get any bigger or any better than this.

Uh-oh.

What is this? What is this? What is this? Get him out of here.

Get him out of here! Hulk Hogan, surrounded by the Dungeon of Doom! I'll watch my hands a lot.

He's cleaning house! Wait, Luger's in there! Lex Luger! In the ring! Lex Luger! He's hooked with Luger! He's hooked with Luger! Whoa, wait a minute! World War III! Lex Luger! has come from out of nowhere.

What's going on here? What is going on here? And they are nose to nose.

This is the most amazing turn of events I have ever seen.

This is Nitro.

This is it.

You just heard Hulk Hogan say, why don't you go back to where you came from? What? Well, you said it was going to be explosive, Bishop.

You said things were going to happen every Monday night, and it's happening.

It's like Randy Savage is staying alive.

Why don't you say something here? Negotiate some peace.

There will be some repercussions come from this.

All right.

I understand now Minjin Oakland is making his way back.

We're going to try to get an interview here.

We've got to take a short time off.

And whatever you do, don't leave us now.

Unbelievable.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

All

right, we're trying to sort all of this out here at the Mall of America on the Premier Edition.

I don't know what's going on, Hulk Hogan.

What are you doing here, Luger? You've got no business in my backyard, Luger.

Well, let me tell you why I'm here.

I'll make it clear right up front.

i'm here for one reason and one reason only people say that you're the number one wrestler in the world today you wear that wwe belt around your waist and you know what that makes you the only world's heavyweight champion and i'm here to take that belt that's why i'm here Let me tell you something, Oliver.

One second.

Before you drop the gun, hold on just one second and let me finish.

Then you'll have your piece.

Just let me finish.

I've been down the same roads as you.

I've been where you've been.

I've beaten the same people you've beaten.

I am sick and tired of playing around with kids.

I'm here to get it on with the big boys, and that means you.

And I don't care whether it's next month Next year or five years from now, I'm going to get my

shot.

You see this, brother? This is the WCW heavyweight title, brother.

I'm the champion, and that's the way it's going to stay forever and a day.

I know where you've been, brother.

You've been playing games.

I'm going to have to give you your due, brother.

I know when you started and how long you've been at it, brother.

But when you come in the WCW...

When you get in Hulk Hogan's face, brother, there's thousands of Hulkamaniacs, brother, that are gonna stand behind me each and every bit of the way, Luger.

So as far as I'm concerned, brother, as great as you may be, you don't have to prove nothing to me, brother.

You don't have to wait till next week.

You don't have to wait till next month.

Just stick that stinky palm of yours out, brother.

Shake my hand, and I'll put the WCW title on the line next Monday on Monday Nitro right in Miami.

I'll put the title, the WCW

title.

What about that?

I'm hitting a home run.

Ladies and gentlemen, I can't believe it.

Apparently next Monday, yes, it's been confirmed.

Hogan and Luger for the WCW heavyweight title.

If we can keep it under wraps.

Eric Bischoff, Steve McMichael, The Brain.

I can hardly wait until next Sunday.

In the meantime, from the Mall of America, have a great one.

Well, we are wondering what big news Triple H has for us.

Apparently, we're going to find out right here, right now, on The Warzone.

Has there been a rift? Or is there a rift in DX? I don't see Shawn Michaels.

who went down fighting last night at the hands of Stone Cold at WrestleMania 14.

Courtesy of a nice little double cross from the baddest man on the planet.

And thanks to Chyna last night, even though she was handcuffed to the commissioner, you wouldn't believe what Chyna did to Slaughter last night, folks.

Elmsley is still the European champion, but his rivalry with Owen Hart certainly has not subsided.

It has probably escalated in the last 24 hours.

I'm going to tell you this, Mike Tyson is going to pay for what happened at WrestleMania one way or the other.

Well, Mike Tyson proved his colors last night.

You know,

a lot can happen in 24 hours.

Let's start with Mike Tyson.

You know, I must have asked a thousand times.

Is he locked in? Is he with us? Is he a part of us? Are you sure? Is it sewn up? what I heard was don't worry kid I got it covered don't sweat it you worry too much it's sewn up let me make the decisions well you dropped the ball but don't worry HBK cuz Triple H picked it up and now the ball is in my court I'll take care of the worries.

I'll take care of the problems and I'll make the decisions Whoa this is the genesis of D-Generation X. Tonight, live, in front of the world, I form the DX Army, an army to take care of business that should have been taken care of right from the start.

What's he saying, JR? And when you start an army, When you set out to do what no one else can do, the first thing you do is you look to your blood.

You look to your buddies.

You look to your friends.

You look to the clique.

Well, look who's back! What a coup has been pulled off here, JR! A new day is dawning for DX! Apparently there's a new leader in DX! What a night this is! Farouk is out in the nation and now it looks like Michaels is out of DX! Stone Cold's in jail! Well, this is rather controversial to say the very least.

And this should be the most interesting comment.

And remember, we are live.

You know, when you've been an indentured servant for two years, you run up a lot of feelings.

Talk to them, kid.

Albany, New York,

raise some hell and

make a lot of dollars.

First things first, I got a little something something I gotta get off my chest right now.

I heard Hulk Hogan come out on television saying I couldn't cut the mustard.

Well, Hulk Hogan, you suck, pal.

So I don't think you have any room to talk about anybody cutting any kind of muscle.

And Hulk, I got some more advice for you.

You better not stop short or Eric Bischoff will go so far up your ass, he'll know what you had for breakfast.

Well,

he's telling the truth so far.

And now on to important matters at hand.

I'm sitting at home with my mind on my money and my money on my mind.

And I get a call from one of my best friends of my entire life, Triple H.

And he says, DX needs your help.

Well, damn it, Triple H.

Anytime you ever need anything from me, pal, you got it.

And I got something else to say.

Kevin Nash and Scott Hall would be standing right here with us if they weren't being held hostage by World Championship Wrestling.

And that's a fact, Eric Bischoff.

So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Well, things are getting out of hand here.

You agree with that too, JR? Where's your DX

t-shirt? So the way I see it right now, this is a new beginning for D-Generation X.

And we're here to rip ass on the World Wrestling Federation.

And it starts tonight.

Well, this kid is called a P&V king.

Oh, yeah.

By the way, I got two words for you.

Suck it! Yeah! Well, I'm sure that will be the most quoted interview of the week.

Not exactly a SportsCenter moment, King, but they told it like it is.

What a night this has been so far.

We ain't even close to being through.

Austin's in jail.

A cage match coming up.

What else is going to

happen? Yes,

indeed.

The DX, well, the kid, Triple H, obviously, I guess, is the new man in DX.

In any event, folks, whatever you do, don't go away because coming up next, Who can dethrone the AEW World Champion, Kenny Omega? I'm not so sure anybody can right now.

You know, just like any other sport, when you're hot, you're hot.

And here come the former, and I'll emphasize, former World Tag Team champions.

Yeah,

all credit to the Lucha Brothers, the newly crowned AEW World Tag Team champions.

Well, we all know the Young Bucks, if you run back to the title hunt, they're too damn good not to be.

Now their celebration goes on with the Elite.

And a jubilant John Callis joining Callis and Anderson and the Young Bucks to celebrate with the AEW World Champion, Kenny Omega.

No, no, no, no, come on God damn it.

It's enough Some of gang control a jungle boy Luchasaurus hitting the ring trying Trying to even the odds It may be too little too late, but Omega just brained Luchasaurus with the world championship title again god almighty it's chaos here you won the damn match you retain the title why this completely despicable display

are you finally starting to understand chicago Best in the world this.

Best in the world that.

I don't care if you have hometown heroes.

I don't care where you came from.

No one is on my level.

Absolutely no one.

I've proven it.

Day in, day out.

Month in, month out.

Year in, year out.

And it doesn't matter where I go.

But one thing's for sure.

When it comes to this AEW belt...

The only people that would ever have a chance to beat me, ever, are either not here, they're already tired, or they are already dead.

Wow.

You know it's all

about life.

One of the greatest talents in the entire world is wearing the right colors.

This is a shocker.

Adam Cole, I think he said, you remember what you did to me.

Oh, no. Cole just

took out Jungle Boy.

Why would he kick Jungle Boy?

I don't believe what I'm seeing.

Third of your answers, Tony.

This is astonishing.

What a turn of events.

In the words of the almighty Steve Urkel, did I do that? You really believed me, didn't you? You really thought I was scared? This guy's one of our best friends.

Tell him, Adam.

Who's ready for story time with Adam Cole, baby? Boys and girls, it's official.

The elite is the most dominant faction in the history of this business.

And ain't no chance in hell anyone's gonna stop us.

Now that's what I call a happy ending.

So really, the only thing I've got left to do is what I do best, and that's send the crowd home happy.

So without any further adieu, I must bid you goodbye and good night.
