WCW Greed Results: Page 2
For: Sunday 18th March 2001
Backstage, Jeff Jarrett continued
to the Magnificent Seven's documentary, bringing
the cameraman into Ric Flair's locker room. Flair
said he was disgusted with Dusty Rhodes' segment
tonight. Flair said that he was the CEO and he
wouldn't kiss anybody's ass. He said that if
anyone would be kissing anyone's ass tonight, it
would be Dusty kissing his.
Backstage, Booker T cut a promo on
Rick Steiner: "Rick Steiner, all the talk is
over. You're talking this and talking that. Like
I said before, save the drama, for your momma.
Tonight, WCW Greed, for the US Title. The title
that has eluded me for eight years. But tonight,
it's going around my waist. And when it's all
over with, I want you to remember one single
thing... don't hate the playa... hate the game."
Match #6: O'Haire & Palumbo
vs. Totally Buff - WCW Tag Titles
Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell entered the ring first
and Luger took the microphone: "You know,
when you look as good as we do, when you're built
like us, when you wrestle like we do, multi time
world heavyweight champion, multi time US
heavyweight champion, and Buff, how many tag
titles do you possess?" Buff: "At least
5 or 6!" Luger: "That's why you're
totally buffed! Buff is the stuff. That's why
we're the ones who did the impossible. We ended
the career of the monster, Bill Goldberg, never
to be seen in a WCW building again. When you
possess all we possess, when you're successful as
we've been, sometimes even we can become a little
overconfident. That may have happened in the last
couple of weeks. Sean Palumbo and Chuck O'Haire...
or is it the other way around? Maybe you guys
snuck up on us just a bit. Maybe you possess a
little talent. Maybe, some day, you'll be as big
stars as Buff and the Total Package. But tonight,
you're going to find out why we're Totally Buff!"
O'Haire and Palumbo's themes hit, and out came
the WCW tag team champions. They quickly attacked
Luger and Bagwell. Palumbo hit each of them with
a Jungle Kick. Sean O'Haire climbed the
turnbuckle and hit Luger with a Seanton Bomb. He
then climbed the other turnbuckle and hit Bagwell
with a Seanton Bomb! O'Haire pinned Luger,
Palumbo pinned Bagwell, and the match was over in
under a minute!
Winners: Chuck Palumbo & Sean O'Haire
Backstage, Scott Steiner was shown
doing pull ups while Midajah counted, "101,
102." Steiner then cut a promo on Diamond
Dallas Page, saying that he would have to get his
hands dirty with Page tonight and that it was a
falls count anywhere match. Steiner said that he
would chase Page through the crowd tonight if he
had to.
Back in the ring, Buff Bagwell was
slow to get up, pointing to his neck. However, he
got up under his own power and walked off along
with Lex Luger.
Match #7: The Cat vs. Kanyon
Chris Kanyon made his entrance first, along with
a new theme that started with "Who's better
than Kanyon? Nobody!" The Cat entered next
along with Miss Jones and took the mic: "Chris
Kanyon, let me tell you something, baby! I'm
gonna get in the ring and I'm gonna rip that ugly
ass mask off your face! Wait a minute, I'm sorry,
that's not a mask, that's your ugly as face. And
when I'm done with you, I'm gonna throw you into
the crowd and I'm gonna let them stomp the hell
out of you!" Kanyon ran at the Cat, but
bypassed him and went straight to Miss Jones.
However, The Cat chased him and threw him back
into the ring, and the match was underway. The
Cat hit a flurry of offense on Kanyon, eventually
knocking him to the outside. Kanyon spotted Miss
Jones on the outside and went after her, but The
Cat made the save once again and attacked Kanyon.
However, Kanyon nailed the Cat, rolled him back
into the ring, and climbed the top rope. Kanyon
hti a top rope clothesline on Kanyon, regaining
control. Kanyon hit an elbow drop onto The Cat,
then hit a top rope leg drop. Kanyon locked on a
sleeperhold, but The Cat got out of it and
pounded away at Kanyon. The Cat climbed the
turnbuckle and hit Kanyon with a superplex off
the middle ropes. The Cat followed up with a
James Brown Elbow and a martial arts kick, but
Kanyon kicked out of the cover. Suddenly, Kanyon
nailed the Cat with a lowblow and went for the
pinfall with his feet on the ropes and actually
got the pinfall. However, the referee immediately
noticed that Kanyon's feet were on the
turnbuckle, so he forced the match to continue.
Kanyon quickly locked on a Boston Crab, but the
Cat got up and whipped Kanyon into the
turnbuckle, then hit him with the Feliner!
However, Kanyon's foot was on the bottom rope,
breaking the pinfall. Suddenly, Miss Jones
climbed up on the apron, distracting the referee.
Kanyon came up from behind and knocked out the
ref, then told Miss Jones to come into the ring.
However, the Cat grabbed Kanyon and told Miss
Jones to hit him. However, she tried a kick, but
missed and nailed the Cat. Kanyon told Miss Jones
to hit him, but he caught her arm. Miss Jones
tried to kick him several times, but he ducked.
Out of nowhere, The Cat nailed the Feliner on
Kanyon, the referee got back to his feet, made
the count, and the Cat is your winner. After the
match, Kanyon got up and nailed the Cat with the
Flatliner. He grabbed Miss Jones, but out of
nowhere, Smooth's theme hit and out he came with
a steel chair in hand, clearing the ring of
Kanyon. Smooth, The Cat, and Miss Jones
celebrated in the ring.
Winner: The Cat
Backstage, Buff Bagwell and Lex
Luger argued about their match tonight while the
documentary camera man taped them. Bagwell said
that before they get into an argument, he's going
to just get his stuff and leave tonight. Luger
agreed and left. Afterwards, Buff spotted the
camera man and asked him what he was doing taping
the bad stuff.
Backstage in the Rhodes locker
room, Dusty Rhodes mentioned that he had already
eaten about 40 burritos and it would be "Smellovision"
out there tonight.
Match #8: Rick Steiner vs.
Booker T - US Title
Booker T made his entrance first, followed by the
US champion, Rick Steiner. Rick Steiner quickly
gained the early advantage in the match and
continued a slow paced offensive attack on Booker
T for a good part of the match early on. Rick
Steiner pounded away at Booker T then played to
the crowd. Out of nowhere, Booker T hit Rick
Steiner with a belly to back suplex, but Rick
Steiner quickly regained the advantage with a
belly to belly suplex followed by a Steinerline.
Steiner locked on a sleeperhold, but Booker T
eventually fought out of it with a flying forarm
followed by a Spinebuster. Booker T kicked
Steiner in the mid section then hit him with the
axe kick, or as the announcers called it, the
"Ghetto Blaster." Booker T hit the
Spinarooni, got to his feet and went for the
Harlem Sidekick, but Steiner ducked and the
referee was knocked out. Booker T tended to the
ref, but Rick Steiner caught him from behind and
nailed him with a German suplex. However, the
referee was still out. Steiner went to the top
rope, but Shane Douglas suddenly came out from
the crowd and nailed Steiner in the back of the
head with the cast on his injured hand. Rick
Steiner was knocked down and fell into the arms
of Booker T, who hit him with the Bookend for the
victory.
Winner: Booker T - New WCW US Champion
Backstage, Animal was shown
screaming, asking Buff what was wrong. Lex Luger
walked into the locker room and say Buff Bagwell
laid out on the floor. Luger asked Animal what
happened. Animal said that he walked in and he
saw Buff laid out. Luger: "Well, isn't that
conveniant?" Animal: "What are you
talking about?! I was attacked last week!"
Both men stared down each other, and the segment
ended.
Match #9: Dusty & Dustin
Rhodes vs. Ric Flair & Jeff Jarrett
Jeff Jarrett made his entrance first with a
guitar in hand. Out next came Ric Flair, along
with Road Warrior Animal. Flair was dressed in a
Hawaiian shirt and slacks. Dustin Rhodes entered
next, followed by his father, Dusty Rhodes.
However, Flair took the mic and interrupted the
Rhodes' entrance: "Cut the music! You don't
get it! I'm not dressed to wrestle and I'm not
wrestling! The Chosen One is gonna beat the hell
out of both of you himself!" The Rhodes
family ran into the ring, clearing Jarrett,
Flair, and Animal out. Flair grabbed the mic
again and said "They want it?! They got it!"
It looks like he is going to wrestle afterall.
The referee said that Road Warrior Animal would
have to be sent to the back, and Flair and
Jarrett reluctantly agreed. Jarrett started
things off with Dustin Rhodes, as Dusty and Flair
waited for an opportunity on the apron. Dustin
quickly gained control of the match, nailing
Jarrett and crotching him on the steel ring post.
However, as Rhodes jumped from the top rope, he
was met with a Jarrett boot. Jarrett tagged in
Flair and out came the Nature Boy. Flair hit
Rhodes with several right hands, then showboated,
taunting Dusty Rhodes. Flair hit his trademark
chop on Dustin. Whooooooo! Suddenly, Flair
allowed Dustin to slip free, and he tagged in his
father, Dusty. Dusty walked in and pranced around
the ring, then stared down Ric Flair. Both men
locked up, with Rhodes knocking down Flair. The
crowd rose to their feet and were really getting
into the match. Both men stared at each other in
the ring again, then once again locked up. Rhodes
put Flair in the corner and hit him with several
chops then hit the Bionic Elbow on Flair, then
another Bionic Elbow on Jarrett, then a Bionic
Elbow on Flair, then another Bionic Elbow on
Flair. Great arsenal of moves. Dusty tagged in
Dustin, who ran in and hit Flair with a vertical
suplex, then hit Jarrett with an Inverted Atomic
Drop. Dustin set Jarrett up for the Dustbuster,
but Flair attacked Jarrett and broke the move up.
Flair was tagged in and began to pound away at
Dustin in the corner. Flair taunted Dusty again,
then he and Jarrett continued to work on Dustin.
Jarrett began to work on Dustin's knee, setting
him up for the Figure Four. He tagged in Flair,
who went for the Figure Four, but Dustin blocked
it and rolled up Flair, but Jarrett broke up the
pin and was tagged in. Jarrett went for the
Figure Four on Rhodes, and locked it on. However,
after a few seconds, Dustin turned the move
around, applying the pressure on Jarrett. Jarrett
got out of it and tried to lock on the Figure
Four again, but Rhodes shoved off Jarrett. Both
men were down on the mat as the referee began to
count to ten. Jarrett tagged in Flair, and Dustin
tagged in Dusty, who hit Flair with a Bionic
Elbow. And then he hit Jarrett with... a Bionic
Elbow. Dusty hit Flair and Jarrett with several
punches, then a double Bionic Elbow. Dusty then
dropped the Bionic Elbow Drop on Flair. However,
Jarret broke the pin up. Dusty rose to his feet
and tagged in Dustin, who hit a double
clothesline on Flair and Jarrett. Jarrett
suddenly hit a low blow on Dusty Rhodes, and
Flair took out Dustin. Jarrett tried a figure
four on Dusty and Flair tried a figure four on
Dustin, but both Rhodes broke the holds. Out of
nowhere, Dustin rolled up Jeff Jarrett and picked
up the pinfall! Flair looked shocked and irate.
Dusty: "OK! Pucker then lips up and come in
here and kiss my big white ass!" Jarrett ran
in to try to attack Dusty, but Dustin knocked
Jarrett down and held him in the corner. Dusty
dropped his pants and inched towards Jarrett, who
was held in the corner by Dustin. Dusty pressed
his rear end in Jarrett's face (like the
Stinkface), Dusty's theme hit, and Jarrett ran
out along with Ric Flair.
Winners: Dusty & Dustin Rhodes
Match #10: Scott Steiner vs.
Diamond Dallas Page - WCW World Title
Michael Buffer once again was there to announce
tonight's main event between Diamond Dallas Page
and Scott Steiner. DDP, the challenger, was
introduced first, followed by Scott Steiner, who
was accompanied to the ring by his "favorite
freak," Midajah. The bell rang and the main
event was underway. Both men stared off against
each other, with DDP spitting in Steiner's face.
This angered Steiner, who went after Page.
However, Page blocked and pounded away at
Steiner, hitting him with a clothesline off the
top rope and knocking him to the outside. DDP
attacked Steiner near the announce table, then
tried to whip him into the guard rail, but
Steiner reversed and knocked Page into them.
Steiner: "There's your DDP! There's your
white trash!" Steiner continued to pound
away at DDP, throwing him over the guardrail and
into the crowd. However, DDP fought back, but it
wasn't enough, as Steiner retained the advantage,
nailing him with several weapons, including a
trash can and a treash can lid. Once again, this
match was a falls count anywhere match. There was
a fan with crutches wearing a DDP t-shirt
conveniently standing right in front of Steiner.
Steiner grabbed the fan's crutch and smashed it
across DDP's back. However, DDP fought back and
asked for the fan to toss the other crutch. The
fan did and DDP smashed it across Steiner's back,
then placed Steiner on a table. DDP climbed onto
a stage and jumped down on Steiner, putting him
through the table. However, he only got a two
count. Both men continued to battle around the
arena and finally made their way back to
ringside, where Steiner attacked DDP. Steiner
once again got into it with a fan at ringside,
shoving him in the face and calling him "white
trash" over and over. They finally returned
to the ring, where Steiner hit DDP with a
Steinerline. Steiner went for the pin, but got up
by himself to do pushups. Both Steiner and DDP
were busted open a little. Out of nowhere,
Steiner picked up DDP and hit him with a great T-Bone
Suplex, then locked on a bearhug. DDP fought
back, but was caught and hit with a belly to
belly overhead suplex. Steiner went for the pin,
but DDP kicked out. DDP attempted to fight back,
but was caught with another belly to belly suplex.
Steiner grabbed DDP and put him in a surfboard
submission hold. DDP once again attempted to
fight back, but Steiner overpowered him. However,
Page finally did regain control with a DDT on
Steiner followed by a clothesline. Page slammed
Steiner's face into the turnbuckle ten times, but
off an Irish whip, was caught with an elbow by
Steiner. Off another irish whip, Page jumped and
hit Steiner with a DDT. Page called for the
Diamond Cutter, but Steiner hit Page with a mule
kick, then nailed him with a DDT. Steiner picked
up Page, but Page wriggled free and hit the
Diamond Cutter on Steiner! He went for the pin,
but out of nowhere, Rick Steiner pulled out the
referee, breaking the hold. DDP ran out and
nailed Rick Steiner, then turned his attention
back to Scott Steiner. However, Scott grabbed the
World Title from Midajah and cracked Page across
the head. Steiner went for the pinfall, but Page
kicked out! Page was dripping blood from his
forehead all over the ring. Steiner locked on a
Boston Crab, but Page managed to grab the bottom
ropes to break the hold. Steiner called for the
Steiner Recliner and locked it on! The referee
picked up DDP's arms to see if he was out, but
DDP fought back and grabbed the ropes, breaking
the hold again. Midajah climbed the apron and
distracted the referee as Steiner grabbed a lead
pipe and and pounded away at DDP's back. Steiner
locked on the Steiner Recliner again, and DDP was
out. The referee called for the bell and Scott
Steiner once again retained his WCW Heavyweight
Title. After the match, Scott Steiner celebrated
in the ring with his brother Rick Steiner and
Midajah. Steiner grabbed a University of Michigan
flag and placed it over DDP, then began to nail
DDP with the pipe once again.
Winner: Scott Steiner
A quick recap of the PPV was shown
and with that, the PPV went off the air as the
announcers told us that they'd see us tomorrow
night on Nitro. It should be noted that there was
absolutely no mention of WCW programming being
cancelled after March 26. In fact, it seemed like
it was business as usual and it seemed like WCW
was continuing to further angles for future shows.
