WWE Raw Is War - March 15th, 2004: 1. Tag Team Championship Tournament Match: The Hardy Boyz vs. Batista & Ric Flair Pretty much a brutal squash here. Jeff Hardy took a pounding the majority of the match and was never able to tag in Matt. Double teaming by the Evolution Members was the key to success and Batista put Jeff away with a nasty Batista-Bomb to advance to the Championship Match. Winner(s): Batista & Ric Flair when Batista pinned Jeff Hardy (2:56) - 1/2* 2. Tag Team Championship Tournament Match: The APA vs. Chuck & Billy Same result as the last match. The APA Dominated the entire match and never allowed Chuck Palumbo to tag out to Billy Gunn. Bradshaw made quick work with his part of the match knocking Chuck cold with the Clothesline from Hell. Winner(s): The APA when Bradshaw pinned Chuck (2:15) - DUD 3. Diamond Dallas Page vs. Reverend D'Von Back and forth match with no real pace to it. Lots of punching and stuff. Rather abrupt finish with the Reverend D'Von connecting with a series of DDT's to put away DDP for the 1-2-3. Winner: Reverend D'Von via Pinfall (4:04) - 1/4* 4. WWE-World Tag Team Championship Match: The APA vs. Batista & Ric Flair A grueling brawl for the majority of the bout. Flair and Faarooq started off with some wrestling, but it didn't take long for all 4 men to enter the ring and begin brawling, even taking out the referee at times. The finish came when Batista & Flair double suplexed Faarooq, allowing Flair to apply the dreaded Figure-Four Leg-Lock for the submission and Titles. Winner(s) and NEW Tag Team Champions: Batista & Ric Flair when Flair made Faarooq tap-out. (6:49) - *3/4 5. WWE RAW Heavyweight Championship Match: The Rock vs. Kurt Angle A Great back-and-forth match between the two top superstars of RAW. Both men were able to counter out of the others signature moves, and put on a nice show-case of their skills. Angle played his hand of ground wrestling while The Rock used his speed and charisma to build up the crowd and keep Angle off his game. The Rock was able to catch Angle with the Rock Bottom to pick up the win and the championship. Winner and NEW Heavyweight Champion: The Rock via Pinfall (9:12) - ***1/4 |

| WWE Smackdown! - March 18th, 2004: 1. Tag Team Championship Tournament Match: The Japanese Mafia vs. X-Pac & Curt Hennig Stiff contest with several near falls for both teams. The Team of Liger and Tajiri had the match won early when Liger connected with a Vertebreaker to X-Pac, but only got a two count thanks to some help from Curt Hennig. It wouldn't help in the long run, as later in the contest Liger put X-Pac away with a vicious over-head belly-to-belly suplex to advance. Winner(s): The Japanese Mafia when Liger pinned X-Pac (6:36) - *** 2. Tag Team Championship Tournament Match: Kane & The Hurricane vs. The Powers of Pain Overall a pretty bad match, with very little moves and lots and lots of punching. The POP tried a double team game plan on Kane, but it didn't work, and the Big Red Machine cleaned both their clocks with a steel chair, eventually pinned the Warlord with a Chokeslam. Winner(s): Kane & The Hurricane when Kane pinned The Warlord (5:14) - DUD 3. Chris Benoit vs. Mark Henry The biggest squash in history. Benoit tore Henry apart early and got a VERY quick win with the Crippler Crossface, hopefully impressing everyone who saw the dismantling of the Storongest Man in the World. Winner: Chris Benoit via Submission (0:49) - DUD 4. WWE-Tag Team Championship Match: Kane & The Hurricane vs. The Japanese Mafia ANOTHER SQUASH, and for a Title this time! Kane mauled Tajiri at the bell and din't relent until putting him away with a Chokeslam from Hell, making him and The Hurricane the Tag Team Champions. Winner(s) and NEW Tag Team Champions: Kane & The Hurricane when Kane pinned Tajiri (1:31) - DUD 5. WWE World Championship; Street Fight: "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs. Hollywood Hogan The Biggest Match In The History of Professional Wrestling. Hollywood Hogan vs. Steve Austin in a vicious Street Fight to determine the next World Wrestling Entertainment Champion. No one is allowed at ringside for this match. Austin came out a house of fire, taking Hogan down and beating him within an inch of his life. Both men got back to their feet in a nuetral corner and brought in dueling chairs, with Hogan winning. The action spilled outside fast where the two brawled with whatever was in reach. Austin took control again once inside the ring, and stomped a mudhole in Hogan in the corner. Austin was able to connect with the Stone Cold Stunner early on, but Hogan was able to kick out at two. Hogan made a comeback with hard roundhouse rights and dumping Austin outside, but Austin delivered the second Stunner of the match, but it occured outside the ring. Hogan fought back again with rights and slammed him across the security railing. Hogan with a series of chair shots, but Austin fought back with some of his own. Hogan attempted a big boot, but Austin blocked and connected with a huge back suplex. Hogan dominated outside the ring, punishing Austin with brutal blows to the midsection and with several shots into the steel steps and ring post. Hogan continued to control in the ring and dumped Austin out to pose to the crowd. Back in again, Austin fought back and connected with a series of knees to the midsection, but Hogan connected with his own Stone Cold Stunner...but Austin kicked out at two! Austin comes back again, but Hogan blocks the Stunner bounces off the ropes with an axe-bomber clothesline. Hogan tries whipping Austin off the ropes for the big boot, but Austin back dropped him outside the ring to stall for time. Brawling again and Austin connects with ANOTHER Stone Cold Stunner, this time on the ramp where he can't go for a pin again. Back in the ring Austin controls with a series of vertical suplexes and stomps in the corner. Chair shot knocks Hogan silly and Austin with ANOTHER Stunner.. for only two! HOGAN HULKS UP! He's Hulking Up! Three roundhouse rights, irish whip and big boot by Hogan! Hogan connects with TWO atomic leg drops, and thats enough to make Hogan the new World Wrestling Entertainment Champion! Winner and NEW WWF World Champion: Hollywood Hogan via Pinfall (18:58) - **3/4 |

| WWE Sunday Night Heat - March 21st, 2004: 1. Scotty Too Hotty vs. Paul Roma Very generic match. Not a lot of resting or punching, but nothing exciting either. Action spilled outside where Roma repeatedly beat on Scotty against the barricade, but both wrestlers ignored the referees 10-count and were CO-ed. Winner: Double Count-Out (4:13) - 3/4* 2. Edge vs. Billy Kidman Fast paced match with pretty good action. Edge controled the majority of the match with lightning fast moves off the ropes but Kidman switched rolls and grounded Edge for his offense. Edge turned the tide with a series of dropkicks, but that didn't last for very long. Quick reversal sequence leads to a referee KO and the action spills outside. Back inside, Edge catches Kidman with a low-blow and puts him away with the Edge-e-cution. Winner: Edge bia Pinfall (5:09) ** 3. Tazz vs. Randy Orton I was unaware this was hardcore rules, but Tazz cleans Ortons clock with a chair 15 seconds into the match and brings a table into the ring! Orton fights back with... punches... lots of them. Tazz takes over with an overhead belly to belly followed by a cross armbreaker. The action spills outside but Orton rushes back into the ring. T-Bone by Tazz followed by a DDT onto the chair. Underhook suplex by Tazz, but when picking Orton up, Orton surprises him with a small package for the victory! Shocking... Winner: Randy Orton via Pinfall (2:19) - 1/4* 4. Maven vs. The Big Valbowski Final match until the only one on the entire card that I care about doing. Even in the video game, JR and Lawler don't focus on the match. Both men exchange jobber offense with Maven cycling through the same two moves over and over again. This is just going on too long. Valbowski takes Maven down with a hammerlock suplex and puts him away with a modified Indian Death Lock. Winner: The Big Valbowski via Submission (5:01) - 1/2* 5. WWE Hardcore Championship Match: Rob Van Dam vs. Raven FINALLY... this is going to great I hope. Looks like Raven added about 100 tattooes in the last 20 months or I just never noticed. A ref bump happens intentionally 5 seconds into the match, and both men exchange blows. A ladder set in the corner comes into action fast as Raven rams RVD into it, so in return, RVD slingshots Raven into the Ladder. RVD attempts throwing the steel steps at Raven, but misses, so instead rams him face first into the ring post. RVD connects with a DDT onto a steel chair and plants a table in one of the corners of the ring. Raven is knocked outside the ring and RVD follows with a corkscrew moonsault from the top rope! Back inside the ring Raven controls thanks to a shot to the head with a chair. Irish whip to the corner with the table is reversed and RVD plants Ravens face into the table with a heel kick to the back of the head, breaking the table! RVD with a kick sends Raven outside again, but a suicide dive misses when Raven throws the steel steps in RVDs face! Ouch! RVD comes back with a leg sweep. He plants Raven on another table and connects witha 5-Star Frog Splash, but the table doesn't give! Raven tries a comeback, but a chair shot misses and RVD with reverse leg sweep drops him again. RVD slams Raven through another table, and he's pretty much dead. RVD sets up 2 more tables and the ladder in the ring, but Raven catches him off guard with the Evenflow DDT... for only a two count! RVD makes the comeback of doom, sets Raven across the two tables and comes off the top of the ladder with a 5-Star Frog Splash for the 1...2...3 in the middle of the ring. Winner and NEW Hardcore Champion: Rob Van Dam via Pinfall (8:54) - ***1/4 |

I will be doing it soon, but it takes FOREVER to build up everyone's stats. I'm thinking of doing just an indy one in general, as I went ahead and made an awesome Super Dragon and Paul London. Could be up soon though, as I only have 3 more people's stats to build... |
| QUOTE (Peter North @ Dec 16 2004, 05:15 PM) |
| Yeah, HCTP is the worst with that, in that if you want to build anyone's stats up, you have to be that person in a season. Why would they make that be the case? You'd think they'd want to make it as user-friendly as possible. I had the same thing happen in that I have mainly ROH guys made, but also have a handful of other guys I just felt like making. I still have Styles and Daniels in there, as I made the bulk of my CAWS before the RF/TNA/blahblahblah situation. I was gonna make a bunch of the same ROH/Indy-guy CAWS for SvR, but I'm leaning towards not doing so. I like this idea for a thread, as I can sit and read this at work, and turn my brain off a bit. And it's the best place to catch Butch Reed in 2004. |

| WWE Raw Is War - March 22nd, 2004: 1. Spike Dudley vs. Dino Bravo: Not exactly the greatest pairing for an even match. Bravo controlled most of the early portions of the match with power moves like slams and suplexes while Spike tried his best for a quick victory. Bravo picked up the eventually victory with the Side Suplex. Winner: Dino Bravo via Pinfall (3:37) - 1/4* 2. Ultimate Warrior vs. Billy Gunn: (Takes a few sniffs) You know what that smell is? It's the smell of a squash baby! Warrior quickly put Gunn away with a bunch of pointless power stuff and finished up with a gorilla press slam followed by a big splash to the kidneys. Winner: Ultimate Warrior (1:27) - DUD 3. Captains Fall Six-Man Tag Team Match: Ric Flair [c], Randy Orton, Batista vs. Diamond Dallas Page [c], Hardcore Holly, Bubba Ray Dudley: The only way for a team to win is to pin the captain of the opposing team. For Holly, DDP, and Dudley to win they must pin Flair, and for Evolution to win they must pin DDP. If anyone else is pinned, they are eliminated from the match, but the match continues. All six men are allowed in the ring at once, so excuse the lack of commentary. Randy Orton and Batista seem to gang up on DDP while Bubba Dudley has his sights on Flair. Orton breaks up a DDP/Holly double team on Flair and gets beat down by DDP for it. Flair with a school boy on Holly gets two. The Captains Battle while Holly and Orton brawl in the corner. A ref bump ccurs, saving everyone for the moment. Bubba breaks up a pin attempt on DDP and goes back to work on Flair. Holly connects with the Alabama Slam on Flair and Bubba Ray gets the pinfall! First fall and the match is over! (4:36) Winner(s): Bubba Ray Dudley, Diamond Dallas Page, Hardcore Holly via Pinfall (4:36) - * 4. Match #1 of Best out of 3 Series: The Undertaker vs. Triple H: The rules of the match are normal singles rules. Disqualifications count, a Count-Out results at the count of 10, and the rope break rule is in effect, with a 30 Minute Time Limit. The action quickly spills outside the ring as the referee is knocked down, 30 seconds into the match! HHH has complete dominance in the opening minutes, keeping his distance of the Undertaker and attacking quickly. The Undertaker mounts a comeback with roundhouse rights and chokes away at "The Game". Both men exchange blows and HHH attacks with mounted punches. Undertaker fights back up with a spinebuster and a diving lariat clothesline. Undertaker with a side walk slam followed by a series of elbows to the side of the head. Lots of punching by the two combatents, with HHH taking over with a vertical suplex. Undertaker no sells and Chokeslams Triple H to hell. Undertaker connects with a big boot, but is quickly taken off his feet and HHH with more punches. Nothing of note happens until Undertaker plants Hunter with a spinebuster and works the arm. Hunter hammers on Undertaker and applies a front face lock. Undertaker no sells and plants Hunter with another Chokeslam, but Hunter is too close to the ropes. Hunter fights back and Pedigrees the Undertaker for the pinfall victory to take the lead 1-0. Winner: Triple H via Pinfall (7:03) - 1/2* |

| WWE Smackdown! - March 25th, 2004: 1. WWE United States Championship Tournament Match: Chris Benoit vs. "Macho Man" Randy Savage: Benoit is coming off a strong victory off Mark Henry last week, and Randy Savage is making his WWE Debut tonight. Winner faces the winner of Jericho vs. Liger next week for the Vacant Championship. Back and forth action to start, with Benoit being in control for the majority. Niether man gets a strong offensive streak going early on either. Benoit works over Savage with back breakers and german suplexes while also executing some submission manuevers. Savage controls late in the contest, but is unable to keep Benoit away from the ropes to break up pinfall attempts. Benoit eventually is able to take Savage down with the Crippler Crossface to win the match. Winner: Chris Benoit via Submission (7:57) - **1/2 2. Hardcore Invitational Challenge: Raven vs. Shawn Stasiak: The challenge is accepted by Shawn Stasiak, so let's get underway... hopefully he doesn't have a boner. Stasiak controls momentarily, but Raven is able to take over. Raven puts Stasiak down with a neckbreaker and pummels him in the corner. Nothing much else happens until a referee bump... yeah. Not a single weapon shot in the entire match as of right now. Here comes a trash can lid, and Stasiak accidentally clobbers the referee! Raven puts Stasiak down for a while by doing nothing special of note until the Raven Effect DDT comes out of nowhere for the victory. After the match, Raven beats down Stasiak with a Steel Chair. Winner: Raven via Pinfall (3:42) - 1/2* 3. WWE United States Championship Tournament Match: Chris Jericho vs. Jushin "Thunder" Liger: This should be a good match. Quick start from both men with stiff kicks to the head and back. Liger with a series of dropkicks and a running senton. Irish whip and Jericho rolls up Liger for two. To the corner and Liger misses a running dropkick. Jericho with the shining wizard and a series of knees to the midsection followed by a snapmare and posing. Liger sends Jericho to the corner and connects with a heel kick. Snap suplex by Jericho, so Liger returns with a knee to the face. Snapmare and dropkick to the back of the head by Jericho followed by a basement dropkick. Cross body press by Liger and the two with a reversal sequence from a headlock position. Liger with the mahistral cradle... GETS THE THREE COUNT?! Way too short... Winner: Jushin Liger via Pinfall (2:35) - *3/4 4. WWE-Tag Team Championship Match: Kane & The Hurricane © vs. The New World Order (Syxx & The Dicyple): It's time gentlemen... and more gentlemen, for the MAIN EVENT of the show. Kane manhandles the Dicyple to start the match.... and the entire match basically. Dicyple never tags out as Kane and the Hurricane manhandle the bastard and is finished with a Chokeslam from Hell courtesy of the Big Red Machine. Winners & Still Champions: Kane & The Hurricane when Kane pinned Dicyple (3:15) - DUD |

| WWE Sunday Night Heat - March 28th, 2004: 1. Jeff Hardy vs. "The Natural" Butch Reed: Hardcore Rules Match. Reed is scheduled to fight Rob Van Dam for the Hardcore Championship at Backlash in April, so this should be a little preview if Reed has a hope in hell of actually winning. Reed dominates early and connects with a DDT onto a steel chair outside the ring, but Hardy is able to kick out. Hardy mounts a minor comeback but the action spills onto an announcers table, where Reed snaps Hardys head back, driving him through the table with the force of the manuever. Easy pinfall follows. Winner: Butch Reed via Pinfall (3:02) - * 2. Six-Man Tag Team Elimination Match: Maven, Mark Henry, Big Valbowski vs. Demolition (Ax, Smash, and Crush): Elimination Rules, of course, means that to win, an entire team must be eliminated by either pinfall or submission. Demolition Smash starts the match with Mark Henry. Both men exchange blows, with Smash getting the upperhand, with a little help from Crush. Henry comes back and lays a whooping on Smash. Ax gets the tag in for some double teaming fun. All hell breaks loose with all six men brawling in the ring. Brawling all over the ring area brings a table into the ring, but thats quickly dimissed. Venis gets tagged in for double team clothesline to Ax. Crush comes in and lays out Venis with the Devistation Drop (alabama Slam) but the referee is knocked out. Henry tags back in and Venis helps take Smash down with a knee clip. Crush tags in for the second time in the match and quickly disposes of Henry with a double neck snap with the help of Ax, pinning Henry at 5:49. Maven is next in and tries his best to fend off the three members of Demolition, but one risk too many leads to Smash clotheslining him as he came off the top rope. The Devistation Drop ends Mavens night at 8:25, leaving Valbowski down 3-on-1. Venis' night ends fast as Smash tags in Ax and the two perform the awesome Demolition Decaptation elbow drop for the victory and clean sweep at 8:58. Winner(s): Demolition Ax, Smash, and Crush by last pinning Big Valbowski (8:58) - **1/4 3. WWE Hardcore Championship Match: Rob Van Dam © vs. Bad News Brown: Brown controls RVD for the first minute of the match, and surprisingly, no weapons have been used yet. Brown catches RVD with a clothesline, sending him out of the ring. Action spills back in the ring where a lot of nothing much happens until RVD uses some unorthodox manuevers to take control. Brown catches Van dam in the face with a big boot followed by a series of headbutts. RVD kicks Brown back in the face, knocking him out of the ring in the process. Brown stiffs Dam with a clothesline and drops a fist across the face. Hammerlock exchange and RVD with a victory roll for a two count. Brown catches RVD with the Double Arm DDT (now known as the Ghetto Blaster), but only gets a two count for it. RVD mounts a comeback and eventually is able to come off the top with the Five-Star Frog Splash for the victory and to retain his Hardcore Championship. Winner and Still Champion: Rob Van Dam via Pinfall (5:32) - ** |
