Excess review, 9-29-2001 Guests: Kanyon, Perry Saturn By Jeff Wilen
Hour 1
Highlights of Kurt Angle winning the title.
Coach and Trish Stratus introduced.
Perry Saturn confronts a janitor mopping backstage. Saturn: "What are you doing? What is the matter with you? Is this how you treat your friends? What are you going to do when she's gone and you're all alone?" The janitor looks confused and says he doesn't speak English.
Undertaker/Kane vs. Booker T/Test highlights from Smackdown.
Kanyon is shown backstage. Kanyon is writing something and mumbles, "Hugs and kisses. Love, Lita." There is a magazine with Lita on the cover on the table he's writing on.
Clip of the Smackdown your vote campaign from Ohio State on Monday is shown. Angle, Ivory and Bradshaw were there. Angle signed lots of books also.
Kanyon-Lita clip from Raw.
Kanyon joins studio. Kanyon says Lita's comment on Raw was a coverup. Kanyon displays a love letter from Lita. Kanyon smells the letter. Kanyon reads the letter. It says Lita isn't good enough for Kanyon but that she wants and is begging for membership to Club Kanyon. It says that Lita says she wants Kanyon. Trish grabs the letter. She says Lita is spelled Leta. Trish says it's not even a woman's writing. Coach and Trish get on Kanyon for the letter being a fake.
E-mail writer says she wants Kanyon. Kanyon says that person is really Lita calling with a screen name for disguise. E-mail writer asks whether Lita will dump Matt Hardy. Kanyon says yes. Phone call asks whose better than Lita. Kanyon does a suggestive dance for Lita.
Kanyon is asked about Stone Cold. Clip of Angle's win at Unforgiven and speech on Smackdown is shown. Kanyon says Earl Hebner is no Nick Patrick, and how Hebner has had a history of screwing over wrestlers. E-mail writer asks whether Kanyon is OK with SCSA badgering him. Kanyon says SCSA is a leader by example. Kanyon says it's "great to have a Lita"...and laughs, (get it, leader, Kanyon says). A plug for Kanyon's Oct. 14 appearance at WWF New York is thrown in. E-mail writer asks if Kanyon has changed. He says he now has a girlfriend (Lita) and titles, unlike in the old WCW. Kanyon pumps up RVD as a leader.
Tough Enough clips are shown. Toughenough.com has more info. The show will be in Los Angeles. The deadline is Oct. 5 for tapes.
Edge and Christian clips are shown. Jennifer Halliday's singing of America the Beautiful from Unforgiven is shown.
Hour 2
RVD/Y2J clips and Stephanie clips are shown. DDP clip. Rock/Angle vs. Dudleys clip.
From the vault: Shawn Michaels vs. Mankind. This was from the Sept. 1996 In Your House Mind Games in Philadelphia. Foley said in his book that it's his favorite match ever. Highlights: HBK dropkicks mat into Mankind on the floor and stomps on the mat. Cross body by HBK. HBK slams Mankind's head into the concrete. HBK suplexes Mankind's leg into the steps. HBK is hung upside down in the corner. Mankind is caught in the rope. Mandible claw on HBK. HBK chair shots. HBK cross body. HBK crouched on top turnbuckle. HBK and Mankind fall back into the table. Vader comes out. DQ. HBK wins. Paul Bearer hits HBK with the urn. Psycho Sid attacks Vader. Mandible claw on HBK. Undertaker pops out of casket. Undertaker KOs Mankind. HBK by DQ.
Moppy clips. Saturn joins the studio.
Caller says she's sorry, asks about Raven and Terri. Saturn pokes fun at Terri (see best line below). Caller asks about Radicals. Saturn is sad. E-mail writer asks why Saturn picked Moppy over Terri. Saturn says the questions have to stop. Trish starts singing, "The sun will come out tomorrow...." and she goes on and on. Saturn is still sad. Trish brings out a Moppy look-alike and gives it to Saturn. Saturn is infatuated with Moppy2. He starts singing and dancing with Moppy2. Saturn and Trish sing together. Saturn leaves with Moppy2.
Undertaker's video This is my yard is plugged. Clips of Undertaker and his motorcycles are shown.
Heat is plugged. Show ends.
The count: The show read off 5 e-mails and took 3 phone calls.
The highlight: Trish's outfit. I kid you not. It was military color (green), with the tank-top sporting just one strap and two bazookas, if you catch my drift.
Best lines: Trish wonders if the swelling went down (on Stephanie's chest). Coach says three words: "Pot, kettle, black." Trish looks down at her chest and smiles. Saturn says "Doorknob. Terri. Everyone gets a turn."
The news: Coach says Stephanie is in the hospital and more information will be on Raw. Obviously, this continues the angle.
Upcoming: Torrie/Tajiri vs. Stacy?Tazz (Sunday Night Heat; set your VCRs). SCSA will return on Raw (Monday). Debra will be the next Excess guest (Saturday).
The grade: Trish sings nicely. Plus, she's great to look at. This show had a few too many highlights and one too many corny skits. The vault match wasn't my favorite of the ones they've shown. I'll give this show a C.
