"I have the whole F'N show, literally!"
No Mercy is coming up this Sunday from St. Louis Missouri. It seems to be a good card on paper, but it will be the in-ring action that ultimately determines if this card will be remembered in our year-end thoughts. The card is off paper a new direction in the WWF, and hopefully, all the critics will just tune in, and not over-analyze everything. Imagine what casual wrestling fans think about wrestling by reading all the internet wrestling critics on all the giant wrestling websites. We should honestly think about that when we're talking on the internet about how The Hurricane's eyeshadow is not befitting a real superhero, or how Chris Benoit marrying Woman in real life is a work. Before I destroy any semblance of civilization in this article, allow me to predict the upcoming WWF PPV, No Mercy.
No Mercy, St. Louis, MO.
10-21-01
Lingerie Match: Stacy Keibler vs. Torrie Wilson
Look back at my Invasion preview. I said back then that Wilson vs. Keibler is always a good match. Any match. Wilson has never looked hotter, and Keibler is every wrestling fans' dream screw, so no one can lose with this one. (Unless the ref has a hard time getting "In Position."
Winner: Any testosterone overdosed male who is watching.
WCW Tag Team Championship: Jeff and Matt Hardy (we are the champions) vs. The Hurricane and Lance Storm
I swear, if Lance Storm doesn't get the pinfall, he is officially in the doggy dogg house. He STILL hasn't explained his reason for being in the WWF, and he has Mighty Molly higher on the roster than him. Please, let him get the victory. He needs the heat.
Winner: Lance Storm and The Hurricane.
Kane vs. Test
Test will lose handily. I wish I was original in saying that, but every PPV I see, Test gets screwed. More of the same for No Mercy.
Winner: Kane
WWF Intercontinental Championship: Edge d. Christian by dq. Christian retains.
Christian would lose just about all of his heat if he lost the belt now. He was just introduced to the Alliance, so look for an interference. No blow-offs here though.
Winner: Christian
Undertaker vs. Booker T
Booker T will win this, and Undertaker will finally do a legit clean job. This will lead to Booker being a main guy at Survivor Series.
Winner: Booker T
WCW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP: The Rock vs. "Y2J" Chris Jericho
I'm not too sure that The Rock will give Jericho the rub. Even though Rocky wouldn't lose heat by giving Jericho the victory, I think the Rock will win it. On the other hand, Vince may want to elevate Jericho while keeping The Rock where he is. Rocky could lose the belt and run after Austin's WWF belt along with Angle and RVD.
Winner: Whoever interferes with this match.
WWF WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP: "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs. Kurt Angle vs. Rob Van Dam.
RVD is a world class wrestler who is finally getting the respect he deserves. Kurt Angle is playing an enraged character who will break the leg of anyone he's pissed at, Austin is the best in the business at this time. I expect that RVD will teach Angle and Austin (literally) but Austin will retain his title. How? RVD helps him in the end, and challenges him on Raw.
X-Facts: Vince McMahon will apparently be on RVD's side.
Stephanie McMahon said that she hated The Rock and Chris Jericho
RVD seemed just as skeptical in Vince's limo as when he was in the Alliance.
RVD was in the limo with Vince.
Vince pointed to his head to end Smackdown.
Vince was beaten by a move invented by RVD at Wrestlemania by WCW owner Shane, the Van Terminator. Live that down? NEVER!!!
