Coming up, Chyna broke her neck - let's watch it again! Also, Saturn will be in action. But next, Steve Austin and Triple H don't like each other.

At Royal Rumble (stills) Steve Austin cost Triple H the title. In turn, Triple H tried to cost Steve Austin from winning the Rumble. Triple H didn't do as well a job. This takes us to a video package that recaps that title match once again, and into RAW. And then a video clip from Smackdown. (9:50, 5:18 of it on the unedited Smackdown clips.) On Monday, we'll have an exciting CONTRACT SIGNING! I'll leave you to make the (easy) jokes about past contract signings - at least this one didn't have a crow.

Coming up, the story of Steve Regal's Besmirching. Also, Taka is in action. But next, Saturn.

Mick Foley has a contest for YOU! Go to wwffanaticseries.com Approximant retail value is $3,900? Wow, I should've done three PPVs with Mick instead of going to school for a semester.

Perry Saturn (w/Terri) vs Chris Nelson - Nelson is fat. Ha ha. This odd: While Coach is doing the (local?) drop in to hype Enforcer tickets, the voices of Kevin Kelly and Tom Pritchard bleed in (from Metal?) You can't tell what anyone's saying, but it the Metal guys disappear right when the bell sounds. Hmm. Lockup, waistlock by Saturn, takes down Nelson and does push ups on his back. Okay. Kiss from Terri. Lockup, waistlock by Nelson hammerlock by Saturn, into hammerlock, off the ropes, shoulderblock. Saturn waits for Nelson to get up, headlock,  off the ropes, hiptoss blocked, Saturn's hiptoss blocked, Nelson with a knee, and turns it all around into a backslide for 2. Nelson's up first and hits a clothesline. Right, right into the corner, kick, kick, Saturn reverses position in the corner, three hard kicks to the gut.  Pull by the hair, Knee, knee, knee , and Nelson falls down in the ring.  Saturn picks him up, reverse neckbreaker. Saturn uses, um, we'll call that a modified cobra clutch. Nelson gets up , Saturn lets go - so he can hit an overhead belly to belly suplex. Nelson looks like he wants no more. Snap suplex. 2nd rope muscle pose. Terri with the muscle pose. Saturn with a - hangman neckbreaker on the floor. He lets go. Punch, Boot to the head knocks Nelson to the apron.

Canadian backbreaker run into the corner. Death Valley Driver signal. Death Valley Driver. That's good enough. (4:02) Saturn and Terri hug and celebrate and Devil horns and bow and all that.

Still to come, Essa Rios is in the house. But next, Chyna's neck is really broken.

Let's go back to the Royale Rumble (with clips!) as we're still not sure how Chyna hurt herself. (:46)

TAKA Michinoku (w/Funaki, the flags, and a microphone) vs Vito DeNucci - "Ha aha ha ha, look at you, you stand there you like have head in hands - but you should not feel cocky.

Essa will be flying high later on, but next, how we got a new European Champion.

The Weirder Results Slam of the Week was Test winning the European title in no time. at all. I think it would have been better if he just did a kick and  a powerbomb to win, but still.

This leads us to clips from Smackdown where Test defends against Christian. The ring microphone is really turns up here - Christian is yelling so loud, he sounds like Albert. That's a big big boot. (3:44)

Essa Rios (w/tearaway pants) vs "Sometimes the Black Nature Boy" Scoot Andrews (w/black hair) - The Green and blue "No Destiny" tights look better, I hate to say. (Commenting on people's outfit choices while having no fashion sense of my own - that's the legacy RollerJam has left me.)  Headlock, off the ropes, no, Essa stops. and again. Scot tries for a back suplex but Essa lands on his feet and pushes Scoot in to the ropes, Scoot comes back with a shoulderblock, cover, 2 count. Scoot tries for a leg trip but Essa jumps, elbow, tries for snap mare but Essa lands on his feet, Essa off the ropes, Scoot leap frogs him, off the other set of ropes, caught in a spinebuster by Scoot but Essa causes him to fall backwards. Essa with mounted punches,, push in the corner, double chop,  taunt, double chop. Corner whip, charge, Scoot moves out of the way of the dropkick (I guess) as Essa hits the ropes with the back of his legs. Scoot picks him up, whip,  HIGH dropkick. Scoot Wooos. Shot to the corner. Chop. Elbow. corner whip, reversed, Scoot flips to the apron. Scoot points at his head, and is dropkicked to the floor.  He's the somersault plancha to Scoot. Coach mentions the "No Destiny" on Essa's tights on THIS show too - don't tease me with an Essa Rios angle unless you plan on delivering, please. Essa throw Scoot in, covers, 2 count. Right, whip, reversed, Essa tires a headscissors but he gets powerbombed. Cover, 2 count. Punch, and Essa falls all the way to the ropes. So Scoot chokes him there.
