[2000-02-07-WCW-Nitro] Scott Hall vs Sid

Hall is nearly as tall as Sid. Sid as big time babyface anchor of a promotion is odd but he continues to try hard and not get a better reaction from the fans that are there than I would have imagined. Some of the calls here reminded me how much I dislike Madden on commentary. Ref bump happens two minutes in and here comes Jeff Jarrett. They beat up Sid but then have an argument and we get another turn as Jarrett breaks the guitar over Hall and places sid on top of him. I give up. Jarrett tells Steiner and the Harris Brothers that you are either with him or that bitch. *

Seeing Hall, Flair, Luger and Hogan, but not Nash, Goldberg and Savage or Sting. I don't think there was any point after maybe 1998 or so where they had all of their top guys from the glory days around and healthy at the same time. WCW is purely a nostalgia promotion at this point, and fans are just showing up to see the guys they grew up on, but aren't invested in what is going on now for shit, nor should they be. Jeff Jarrett is in an NWO shirt. It doesn't get much lamer than that. Jarrett smashes the guitar over Hall's head because he doesn't want Hall to be champion, so Sid retains. I like Jeff Jarrett the wrestler and really despise Jeff Jarrett the personality.

Hall throws his toothpick at Sid who responds with a right dropping him. Some more of those awful punches of his, a clothesline in the corner, chokeslam (which looks awkward) and this could be over early. Sid doesn’t go for the cover giving Hall time to recover. Eyepoke and Hall shows him how to throw a punch. He picks him up for a fallaway slam, although Nick Patrick is standing far to close and you know what’s coming next. Ref bump on the slam and Sid rolls all the way out the ring. Hall calls out Jeff Jarrett and they double team Sid on the outside. With his work done Jarrett heads to the badck and Hall with the Razor’s Edge on Sid. Jarrett sees this, returns to the ring and an argument ensues as they were only supposed to wear Sid down for Superbrawl, Scott wasn’t supposed to beat him and become the World champion. Jarrett breaks his guitar over Hall’s head, puts Sid on top and he retains his belt. As he leaves Jarrett tells Scott Steiner and the Harris twins they’re either with him or ‘that bitch’.

 

Not much to this. Sid still can’t punch and Hall’s selling was OTT in the early portion. Impressive stuff with him getting Sid up for the Razor’s Edge mind. Liked the idea of dissension in the NWO, although I don’t know why he thought Hall ‘wouldn’t’ pin Sid to become the World champion if he had the chance? If he only wanted to wear him down, Jarrett should’ve just ran in for a DQ finish and that way there was no way Hall would go against his wishes.
