NWA-TNA PPV #38 (March 26, 2003)

Image
Show starts with Goldilocks singing America the Beautiful, in honor of the troops in Iraq. Recap of last week. D'Lo demanding his title shot and Jarrett accusing him of a handout. Then the two of them nearly getting laid out by the New Generation until Truth attacked. New Church failed to win the tag titles after a returning Malice caused them to get DQ'd, apparently by design. Disco and Sanders fighting. Kash, Red and Trinity fighting for the X Division Title that saw Kash retain. Then Jarrett, Dusty and D'Lo beating the New Generation, not to mention Truth attacking Jarrett after the match. Watts then threatened to drive Jarrett behind a car just to fuck with him. In the end, Styles was cost a World Title match by SEX, leaving Raven the #1 contender. We're welcomed to the show by Tenay and West and immediately, Styles comes out and heads to the SEX locker room brandishing a friggin chainsaw. AJ then just kicks the door down and waves it around, saying Disco sucks for ...

  We start with Jim Duggan in the ring to rally America, who's troops on this exact day is invading Iraq. He leads the fans into reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and puts over the troops and vowed to carry the American flag a little longer. Recap video of Jarrrett's issues with Watts, Lawler and Flair, and the issues between Styles and Raven. We're also reminded that Russo stepped away from his on-screen role to be with his family, and D'Lo's debut last week. Immediately we start with SEX coming out to the ring, specifically Gilbertti, the Harris Twins and Siaki. Glen brings up their offer to D'Lo last week, but despite that, he wants to talk to D'Lo himself. D'Lo comes out with a chair and mic in hand despite Glen's assurances that they won't beat him up. Sonny apologizes for happened last week and offers a handshake, but D'Lo won't take it. Glen introduces himself and offers his hand and D'Lo won't take it either. Glen heard hi...

Recap of the event last week, with Russo supposedly taking himself off TV, Jarrett's confusion, and the rambling promo from Eric Watts to explain why he laid Jarret out the week before. That's of Styles and Raven going after the NWA Title, Raven winning his Clockwork Orange House of Fun, and David Flair taking out his dad's NWA Title from his burlap sack. We immediately go to Jarrett with bat in hand storming right to the SEX locker room, trying to break the door down but security pull him away before he can get in. Jarrett comes by commentary and yell something that's not picked up on the mics, but apparently he wants Watts out there. Halloween & Damien (w/ Konnan) vs David Young & Jerry Lynn Pre-Match : Apparently these two are, at the time, the EMLL Trios Champions along with Psychosis, collectively known as La Familia de Tijuana.  Knonnan's guys attack from behind to start the match, taking control as David is sent chest first into the corner twice, then...

No opening package as we go right to the Asylum, welcomed by Tenay and West. On tap for tonight, Raven faces Sandman in a Clockwork Orange House of Fun Match, plus Amazing Red challenges Kid Kash for the X Division Title, and an exclusive, shocking interview with Vince Russo. Speaking of Raven, he's on his perch with a mic. He quotes Pete Townsend, saying no one respects the flame quite like the fool who's badly burned. He says Sandman hopes to withstand the Raven juggernaut, but calls it foolhardy at best, and suicide at worst. He says his House of Fun will be Sandman's undoing, his Hiroshima. He says he himself is bathed in sanity and light, clothed in madness and shadows, dealing woe and sorrow to those foolish enough to oppose him. He proclaims that he has a destiny to be NWA Champion, and not Sandman, or Styles or Jarrett can hold back the hands of fate. He says life is a tapestry weaved by the gods. He those singled out for their divine birthright have two choices: Ei...
