InsidePulse’s WWE Afterburn Report

Archive

It’s November 13, 2004 and we’re on the air with WWE Afterburn!

Our host today is Josh Matthews. Survivor Series is coming and it is big. So big that Todd Grisham invades Afterburn and tells the Raw card of Survivor Series. I think Josh is man enough to say both the Raw AND SD card of Survivor Series.

JIP, Chavo & Rey Mysterio vs Kidman & Spike. Chavo and Spike are legal as Chavo hits Spike with punches and an uppercut. Clothesline, bodyslam and armbar by Chavo. Spike wants a tag, but Kidman passes. Tag to Rey and Spike gets a double elbow. Fast legdrop for a 2 count. Whip to the corner, but Spike reverses and Rey hits hard. Double stomp by Spike, then tags Kidman. Back and forth, cruiserweight style. Rey goes to the top for a big hurrincarana. Tag to Chavo. Kidman dropkicks Chavo when Spike provided distraction. Kidman with punches. Tag to Spike and Chavo gets thrown to the outside. Kidman beats on Chavo on the outside and tosses him back for Spike to get a 1 count. Tag to Kidman and we got a resthold. Chavo gets out of it, but Kidman tags Spike. Spike accidentally hits Kidman, then Chavo suplexes Spike on Kidman. Rey is tagged and does a springboard body press to both Kidman and Spike. Rey with a flying headscissors on Kidman, who is in the 619 position. Spike with a knee to Rey, but Rey gets Kidman with Thesz Press. Spike with his head to Rey’s stomach.

We’re back with Josh talking about his match last week.

We see OJ catching up with Josh Matthews. OJ says he wants to apologise to Josh. Josh earned OJ and JBL’s respect. OJ wants to shake Josh’s hand, but Josh halfasses it. OJ gets angry and smacks Josh twice.

We now see a bloody nosed Josh with Booker T and SD GM Theodore Long. Booker says this isn’t right. Josh says he wants a match with Jordan. Matthews also says he wants Booker T in his corner. Why does he have to ask Long that? Does he also ask Long if he could go to the bathroom?

Josh: Mr. Long.
Long: What?
Josh: I…Can I go to the bathroom?
Long: What for, player?
Josh: I really have to go.
Long: Well, I’ll tell you what, player. You go and you find a bathroom and you give the biggest dump that you got, you feel me? You need to make an impact. Oh, and by the way, that dump… is next! Holla Holla!

JIP, OJ vs Josh Matthews. Matthews hides behind Booker T, then goes to the ring. Josh ducks a couple of punches, off the ropes, JBL trips him. OJ kicks Josh and beats him. Beal by OJ. Josh’s shirt is off. Big chop and a chinlock. The beating continues. JBL goes to Booker T, but JBL gets superkicked. OJ goes for a bodypress, but Josh somewhat reverses for a 2 count. Clothesline by Jordan. Booker T gets in and knocks OJ into the ref, who was distracted by JBL. Booker T with scissorskick and drags Josh on top of OJ for the cover, the count and the victory. Josh must be happy: he gets smacked by OJ, asks for a match for revenge, gets beat on by OJ and then pins him by fluke. Don’t mess with Josh Matthews! 2-0!

Now, we get to hear from JBL. He says that Booker doesn’t have an advantage over him. JBL was always the main event. That may a bit too far. The only reason that Booker T was WCW champion was because JBL wasn’t in WCW. That’s a good quote. He will always be better than Booker T. If he loses the WWE title, you will never see JBL again. Michael Cole wants him to repeat it. JBL says that he guarantees a win over Booker T. If not, no more Bradshaw.

Coming Up: Kurt Angle vs Big Show
Up Next: Eddy & RVD vs Mark and Luther

Afterburn returns with Josh talking the mystery of Eddy’s team’s 4th member.

JIP, Eddy Guerrero and RVD vs Mark Jindrak and Luther Rains. Carlito and Jesus are ringside. RVD with a reverse DDT on Luther. Tag to Eddy, tag to Jindrak. Two clotheslines to Mark, whip, reverse, flying headscissors. Tag to Luther and gets dropkicked by Eddy. RVD with spin wheel kick to Mark. Eddy with the 3 amigos to Luther and RVD with a rolling thunder to Jindrak. Carlito goes up on the apron, but RVD knocks him down. Watch the shoulder! RVD misses a bodypress. Eddy is on the outside, takes a chair, smack it on the apron, throws it to Jesus and lies down on the announce table. The referee kicks Carlito and Jesus out. Shouldn’t they be DQ’ed? Eddy cradles Luther for a 2 count. Eddy set up for a double suplex, no, double DDT by Eddy. RVD and Eddy to the top for a double fropsplash. Eddy pins Luther for the 3 count. Eddy is on the mic and says the 4th member is… John Cena! Carlito isn’t happy.

Backstage, Carlito bitches to Theodore Long. Long says that the authorities say Jesus had something to do with Cena’s assault. I said it once and I’ll say it again: ask Cena who did it! Why does Carlito have to be worried? Wrestlers are such pussies these days.

Up Next: Tazz gets up

We’re back with Afterburn, as Josh talks about the UT-Heidenrich feud.

Tazz isn’t happy and starts getting up. Heyman is in the ring, then he is joined by Heidenrich. Tazz sits down, then gets up and goes up the steps. The lights go out and UT’s music plays. UT is in the ring! Face to face with Heidenrich. Heyman holds him back and they leave the ring. Was Heidenrich really resisting?
