Lionsault hits, but Jericho hit the mat on his injured knee and has to settle for a weak two count. Missile dropkick gets another slow two count. On the floor, Chono sets up a table on the floor and calls for a suplex off the apron.
For the past seven months, it’s been WCW = good nWo = bad. Not sure what he was expecting here though. Bischoff is surprised by this partisan WCW crowd. Another flying shoulder tackle fails, but Chono delivers an inverted atomic drop to slow Jericho down. While Jericho threatens Patrick, Chono grabs a sleeper from behind and drops Jericho with a falling inverted DDT. Clothesline by Jericho scores another two thanks to more slow-counting. Jericho manages to fight off the STF and hits a German suplex for 1-2-NO! Eric complains about a fast count when it was REALLY slow. Jericho hits Chono with one enziguri, but Chono catches a kick and snaps off a Dragon screw leg whip. Back in, we see another shoulderblock battle and Chono gets smart with a chopblock. Springboard dive takes out Chono, but he sidesteps a dropkick up against the ringpost. Jericho takes a flying shoulder tackle, but counters a suplex and takes Chono to the floor with a spinning heel kick. Back inside, they get into a test of strength where Chono turns it around into a cobra clutch legsweep. Onto the match, Chono stops a shoulderblock battle with a boot and dumps Jericho out. One difference you’ll notice in the presentation of this PPV is the nanny cam shot from ringside that the director goes to every now and then. Various WCW muscles show up in the audience to possibly as Eric Bischoff put it “crash the party”. Someone will be crowned Miss nWo tonight. They have two homely-looking broads sitting on bikes so that Eazy-E and Trillionaire Ted can be evil and make fun of them. “From Somewhere North of the Border” Chris Jericho “The Baddest Man from Japan” Masahiro Chono vs.Of course, Nick Patrick is the referee for the entire evening. The nWo voiceover/announcer guy makes screwy comments to introduce the WCW talent. Your hosts are Eric Bischoff and Ted DiBiase. The whole set reminds me of either Fight Club or the abandoned warehouse where Zoolander and Hansel had their walk-off. The stage is pretty much completely dark and evil-looking. It’s just WAY over the top, but that’s the point.
The new World order come into the arena hanging on the back of dump trucks along with this huge obnoxious police and fire truck escort.
