WWE at Wheeling Civic Center (11/11/02)



Wheeling Civic Center
Wheeling, WV
November 11, 2002


Never understood why Vince McMahon decided to hold house shows for Smackdown on the same night Raw was broadcasting. Not to mention tonight they're in West Virginia of all places. Still, Vince wanted to make sure every small town in the US had a chance to see guys live, which is the double edged sword. We're running the same card tonight as they've run all weekend so let's get to it.


Match 1

Val Venis, Eric Angle and Shelton Benjamin vs D'Von Dudley, Ron Simmons and Bull Buchanan

Same match as all weekend with the same exact result. Val Venis takes it with the Money Shot.


Winners: Venis, Angle and Benjamin by pinfall



Match 2

Tajiri vs Crash Holly vs Jamie Noble for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship in a 3 Way Dance

Tajiri pinned Crash Holly with the buzz kick but Noble rolled up Tajiri and hooked the tights to win the match.


Winner: Noble by pinfall (still Cruiserweight champion)



Match 3

John Cena and Doug Basham vs Billy Kidman and Chuck Palumbo

Cena and Kidman had a falling out after their loss in the tag title tournament which led to Cena's heel turn. Here, he's got OVW alumni Doug Basham and Kidman teams with Chuck Palumbo, who's lost without Billy Gunn. Palumbo pinned Basham here.


Winners: Kidman and Palumbo by pinfall



Match 4

Matt Hardy vs Rikishi in a Kiss My Ass match

Here we go again with another Kiss My Ass match. Rikishi wins and hits Matt with the stinkface after, next.


Winner: Rikishi by pinfall



Match 5

Albert vs Chris Benoit

Same thing from yesterday. Big Show comes out, lays out both guys, calls out Brock Lesnar, Lesnar runs out and starts a fight. Everyone breaks them up. 6 more days till Survivor Series.


Winner: No one (no contest)



Match 6

Dawn Marie vs Torrie Wilson in a Bra & Panties Match

Same match from yesterday with the same result, Torrie wins.


Winner: Torrie



Match 7

Los Guerreros (Eddie and Chavo Jr) vs Edge and Rey Mysterio for the WWE Tag Team Championship

Same match as the entire weekend with the same result, the faces get the double pin to retain.


Winners: Edge and Mysterio by pinfall



Survivor Series was just six days away and there's still no matches signed apart from Lesnar vs Big Show. Raw had the Elimination Chamber and Trish vs Victoria, maybe this week will shed some light on the subject. Too bad the gimmick matches like Kiss My Ass and Bra & Panties had to take center stage with Kurt Angle and others not wrestling. Tonight's Raw is next so I'll see you there.
