(Rating: **1/4)
Eddie Guerrero & Shark Boy vs The Dudley Boyz
(Rating: **1/4)

BJ Whitmer got a verbal warning from NWF general manager, Jim Carlin for no-showing for a match with Billy Kidman tonight.

What a debut tonight for "Latino Heat" Eddie Guerrero. Winning a tag team match teaming with Shark Boy in defeating The Dudley Boyz.

The NWF has released two wrestlers based on the lowest ranking in the overall rankings. Every month, i'll be doing this. The two that were released were Dave Batista & BJ Whitmer. The NWF has hired two new wrestlers to the roster & they will debut in two of the four Qualifying matches next week, & they are Petey Williams & "THE HARDCORE LEGEND" Terry Funk. That's right, The Funker will debut next week.

Next Week's card is Week 6 (8/23/04)
Main Event will be AJ Styles vs Randy Orton in a Barbed Wire Baseball Bat On A Pole Match.

For the NWF World Tag Team Titles. As the champions, Garrison Cade & Kid Kash vs Blackout.

A rematch for the NWF World TV TItle. As the champion, Tommy Dreamer takes on Lance Storm.

plus 4 Qualifying matches. The winners will be in Week 8's NWF World Title Tournament.

Surprisingly bad match there between Austin and Orton. Guess it happens though and you have to take what you get. Darn that BJ Whitmer. First he no sells everything and now he no shows.

And now BJ Whitmer gets released. Boy, bad luck must run everywhere he goes.

Petey Williams is debuting... I can hardly wait to see the Canadian Destroyer in acation in the NWF!


I'm surprised Sabin vs MAtthews didn't rate higher.

Interesting way to eliminate some dead weight by dumping the 2 lowest rated guys...

I suppose I can understand wanting to release your lowest rated talent, but I'm not sure that dropping Batista was the best idea at this point.  He and Orton were intended to be your top heels, no?  I suppose Terry Funk might be a good choice for a new top heel, but if Orton is doing his "legend killer" gimmick, they might not get along too well.

No Critic of the Dawn, Terry Funk & Randy Orton are not going to be a team, due to the fact that Funk & manager, Ric Flair don't get along. Besides, Funk is going to be a face. & I've already picked out another wrestler to take Batista's place. Mike Rotundo.
