The big one that use to team with the Barbarian or someone else?

** The Steiners don't hold any belts why would Austin and Pillman demand that
Scott find a partner?  Also, when did Pillman complete his heel turn and 
become Austins partner?  Does this mean the LT. Heavies are finally put to 
rest or what?


>Flyin Brian and Stunning Steve Austin def Scott Steiner and
MA Bagwell. The big news in this story is Scott Steiner
TURNED ON BAGWELL!! Here is how it happen: While Scott was
being beaten up by Pillman and Austin, Anderson came down
and ATTACKED BAGWELL BUT SCOTT didn't see it!!! When Bagwell
was down Scott wanted to tag but Bagwell was on the floor!!
When Bagwell finally got up...Scott POWERSLAMMED BAGWELL AND
LEFT HIM BY HIMSELF!! Then Austin delivered the Stun Gun!!
interview with Scott Steiner
Ventura showed Steiner the replay and he saw Anderson
attack Bagwell but Scott didn't apologize or anything.  HE

** Was Bagwell around during the replay?  Did Scott say anything?

>STARTED DEMANDED A TITLE SHOT WITH Ricky Steamboat's T.V.
Title!!! Then Ventura announced that Steamboat would face
Steiner next week (but it really happen an hour later..)

** This doesn't make sense either, Scott hasn't been doing much singles 
wrestling lately (has he?)?  Even still, a title shot?, in a week? which 
actually happened that night?  Has Scott even mentioned previously that he
want a singles title?


>Interview with Dustin and Barry about the UNIFIED TAG TEAM
TITLE then Pillman and Austin came again and demanded a
title shot.. Dustin started saying that he didn't like
Pillman's new attitude (it was very stale)  Barry was 
annoyed with Dustin and said, "Who said we'd give them a
title shot!!" I think Windham with turn heel again!!!!

** So did Dustin say something to the effect of  "I don't like your attitude 
so, your on pal", or did Barry make his title shot comment out of the blue?


Barry Windham def The Barbarian by DQ after Cactus Jack came
in!!  (stuff deleted)
>Ron Simmons 
>FINALLY SAVED WINDHAM BUT DUSTIN RHODES DIDN'T COME OUT AT ALL!!!!!!

** This use to unexplainably happen in NWA quite often, I can rememeber 
matches were one of the R&Rs would come out during a singles grude match 
(usually Ricky). Would get pummeled. And the partner (usually Robert) would 
be no where in sight.  This has happened to Dusty Rhodes with his numerous 
partners, and others.  So this, history wise, does not surprise me.


>Scott Steiner vs. Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat
WE HAVE A NEW T.V. CHAMPION!!! Scott Steiner pinned

** WHY?  Herb do you know anything about this?  Is Ricky leaving again?
Where's Rick?


>Steamboat with a small package.  Funny thing, Scott Steiner
>didn't even act like a heel.  he was slapping hands of the
>fans before and after the match!!!

** This is odd, because Scott does not do much hand slapping with the fans in 
the first place anyway.  He's always acted rather cocky, so the lack of 
apology to Bagwell does not say Heel turn to me, its just Scott walking 
the fence per normal.

>So I don't know if Scott
>is a heel because he sure didn't act like one after turning
>on Bagwell!!!

** See above 


>Return Match MA Bagwell pinned Diamond Dallas Page
After the match Vinnie Vegas and Diamond Dallas doubled
teamed Bagwell. Bagwell had a bad night!!!!

** No Kidding :) 



>News and tidbits

** Was he listed on the card?

This is not a flame, but most of what you wrote was confusing. Assuming you 
were 100% on the mark,  most of the stuff that happened makes no sense to 
me what so ever.  I haven't been keeping up with WCW very closely for a bit 
but nothing I've seen or read could help me make sense out of what you saw.
At this rate, the WWF has nothing to worry about. Good or Bad, There is
something to be said for consistency and continuity.

of NWA.
