[2000-10-14-MPPW-TV] Slash vs Brickhouse Brown

[soup23]

Baxter and Slash promo to start out with Baxter gloating about throwing Lawler out last week. Slash has a pretty awesome promo saying the only people Lawler could bring was the son of his or the wife of his and he will slap both of them. The crowd chants Wolfie and Slash reiterates that he doesn't go by that name anymore.

 

This is the final of the tournament and the winner gets a motorcycle. Brickhouse gives a fired up promo saying he is going to take a few suckers out and then calls him Wolfie D. Decent enough match with Slash brawling and throwing Brickhouse around before Brickhouse picks up the fluke win and then gloats on the motorcycle. Brown and Corey do good hypothesizing that Lawler was in Slash and Baxter's head. *

Despite not being here last week, Dave Brown guarantees that we haven’t heard the last about what happened to Jerry Lawler. A smug Brandon Baxter and Slash join Corey, and Baxter talks about how in everyone’s life there’s one moment that can be defined as the single most defining moment. Last week he had that moment, where, in the building that Jerry Lawler made famous, he stood face to face with him, told him that they didn’t want him here and threw him out like the garbage that he is. Corey mentions how Brandon looks a little nervous and he wouldn’t want to be in his shoes. While he doesn’t know anything, Lawler told them last week that if they jumped him he’d be back this, and one thing about ‘the King’ is that he’s a man of his word. Slash says how in 1997 Vince McMahon fired a man by the name of Wolfie D, and even though he claims different, he knows Jerry Lawler was behind it. Ever since that day he’s waited and waited, and now the time has come where he gets his revenge on Jerry ‘the King’ Lawler. He tells him to bring every friend he’s got, which is probably just his son and that new wife of his, and he’ll be happy to slap them too!

 

This is the finals of the ‘Ultimate Victory’ tournament. Slash pounds Brickhouse down in the corner before a high vertical suplex for a two count. Folding press with his feet on the ropes for added leverage, but again Brickhouse kicks out. Slash tosses him to the floor where he whips him into the commentating desk and then chokes him with some cable. Headbutt to the groin, as Slash insists it was to the inner thigh when the ref questions him. Brickhouse counters the neckbreaker with a belly to back suplex and has found a second wind. Flying tackle takes Slash down, he heads upstairs and hits a diving headbutt off the top. Baxter is up on the apron causing a distraction and Brickhouse flips him into the ring. He’s forgotten all about Slash though who has removed his shin guard and is primed to waffle Brickhouse with it. Brown ducks the shot and quickly schoolboys Slash for the three, winning the ‘Ultimate Victory’ tournament as Corey says he’ll be driving around Memphis on that motorcycle. I’ll bet good money that he doesn’t even sit on that bike outside the studio and at the end of the show it’s returned to the sponsors!

 

Strong promo by Slash at the start of this. This ‘Ultimate Victory’ tournament, which comes across as an anachronism in the first place, splutters to a conclusion and now we can hopefully concentrate on the Power Pro and MCW feud. Considering Slash is going to be right at the heart of that I don’t think I would have put Brickhouse over him here.
