Booked another week of shows. I wanted to do more...but the laptop I'm using is disagreeing. It is lagging big time. I was hoping to do the final week of TV and then Invasion right now but it'll have to
wait till later, as I have to go to work soon.
Crazy things have been happening...feuds are continuing to form and you've got WCW guys interfering on Raw and WWF guys interfering on Thunder. I booked probably my most bizarre match on my most recent Thunder. Austin, HHH, Palumbo, and O'Haire vs. Goldberg, DDP, Taker, and Kane. This is based off of what happened on the Raw I booked. Austin's team got the nod but its safe to say neither team could really co-exist as a huge pier six brawl broke out. This match definitely helped Thunder's sagging ratings.
As did an appearance by The Rock. After Booker T defeated NBT leader Mike Sanders, Booker was getting beaten down, only for The Rock of all people to run out and save him. They fought off the NBT together, and The Rock announced that he has total respect for Booker, and he wants to challenge him for the WCW Title at Invasion. Booker accepted.
Basically, here's the card. Best of 9 series between WWF and WCW. WWF guys are listed first, WCW guys second.
WWF Championship: Stone Cold Steve Austin (C) vs. Goldberg
WCW Championship: The Rock vs. Booker T (C)
WCW Tag Team Championships: The Undertaker and Kane vs. Chuck Palumbo and Sean O'Haire (C)
WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team Championships: The Hardy Boyz vs. Billy Kidman and Rey Mysterio Jr (C)
WWF European Championship: Chris Benoit (C) vs. Eddie Guerrero
WWF Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho vs. WCW United States Champion Chris Kanyon
Triple H vs. Diamond Dallas Page
Team ECK vs. Three Mystery Opponents
WWF Lightweight Champion Dean Malenko vs. WCW Cruiserweight Champion Sugar Shane Helms (sadly this match will have to be relegated to Heat but it will still count in the series)
---
As I said, I've got another week of TV left to book. I plan on having a huge main event for the final Thunder before the PPV. With the exception of Team ECK (who still don't know who they are facing at the PPV)...everyone else on the card will meet in a huge 20-man over the top battle royal. 10 WWF vs. 10 WCW, though it is really every man for himself. Should be a great preview and it should generate ratings.
