Goldberg vs. Scott Steiner

Goldberg dominates the early part of the match, hitting a barrage of spears and delivering a thunderous Military Press. Despite Kronik's attempts to interfere, Goldberg fends them off and maintains control. The crowd is on their feet, rallying behind the face as he asserts his dominance.

 

As the match progresses, Steiner becomes increasingly desperate. With the referee distracted by the chaos at ringside, a mysterious hooded figure appears, assaulting Goldberg. Taking advantage of the confusion, Steiner regains control, focusing on Goldberg's weakened midsection. The match sees a shift in momentum as Steiner targets Goldberg's injured ribs, softening him up for the impending finish.

 

With Goldberg reeling from the surprise attack, Steiner seizes the moment. Despite the face's valiant attempts to mount a comeback, Steiner's underhanded tactics prove effective. The crowd's cheers turn into jeers as Steiner executes a Steiner Recliner on the weakened Goldberg, who passes out. The referee counts to three, declaring Scott Steiner the new WCW World Heavyweight Champion.

 

Post-match, Scott Steiner revels in his championship victory, soaking in the boos from the audience. The celebration takes an unexpected turn as the hooded figure enters the ring, only to reveal himself to be… Rick Steiner, who has been injured for months. The two brothers, embrace and Rick raises his brother’s hand. The crowd watches in astonishment as the Steiner Brothers stand united, holding the WCW World Heavyweight Championship together, closing the show with a shocking return that will reshape the landscape of WCW.

BREAKING NEWS: United States Adopts Gregorian Calendar Effective January 1, 2002

Washington, D.C. – In an unprecedented move, the United States government has announced that it will officially abandon the fixed 28-day, 12-month calendar system it has utilized since its founding. Effective January 1, 2002, the nation will adopt the Gregorian calendar, the system used by the vast majority of the world since its introduction in 1582 by Pope Gregory XIII.

The decision, according to the White House, comes after years of intense deliberation and consideration of the nation's needs in the 21st century. The fixed 28-day calendar, praised for its simplicity and predictability, will be replaced by the Gregorian system, which features months of varying lengths: 31, 30, 28, and 29 days in a leap year.

The Gregorian calendar operates on a more complex structure to align more closely with the Earth's orbit around the Sun. Here’s a quick rundown of how it works:

- 12 months in a year, like the uniform 28-day, 12-month system.
- January, March, May, July, August, October, and December have 31 days.
- April, June, September, and November have 30 days.
- February has 28 days in common years and 29 days in leap years.
- Leap years occur every four years to account for the Earth's 365.25-day orbit around the Sun, ensuring seasonal alignment.

The shift has sparked a whirlwind of reactions from political leaders and citizens alike. President of the United States, George W. Bush, in a press conference, justified the monumental change, stating, "We recognize the need for our great nation to synchronize with the global community, facilitating international relations, trade, and communication. By adopting the Gregorian calendar, we are stepping into the future with a unified vision."

Critics, however, argue that the switch is unnecessary and disruptive. “The fixed 28-day calendar has served us well for over two centuries,” stated Senator John Doe of the Resistance to Change Party. “This new system is convoluted, and quite frankly, it's a calendar catastrophe waiting to happen.”

Economists have weighed in, suggesting the transition might come with significant initial costs but could lead to greater economic efficiencies in the long run. Companies will need to adjust payroll systems, schools will recalibrate academic schedules, and citizens will have to relearn the rhythm of their daily lives.

Interestingly, some conspiracy theorists have posited that the real reason behind the change is far more sinister. Rumors are circulating that the move is an elaborate ploy to rewrite history, subtly altering the perception of time and events. Proponents of this theory claim that the government is "resetting" the timeline to introduce hidden, world-altering agendas.

Despite the skepticism, many Americans are already preparing for the new calendar era. Workshops and educational programs are popping up across the country, offering crash courses in understanding the Gregorian system. Online forums are bustling with tips and tricks to remember which months have 30 days and which have 31.

As the nation braces for this temporal transition, one thing is clear: the United States is embracing change, even if it means rewriting the calendar. Whether this move ushers in a new age of prosperity and global harmony or becomes a bureaucratic blunder of epic proportions remains to be seen.

Stay tuned as we continue to cover this story, bringing you the latest developments and expert analyses on how to navigate the Gregorian revolution.

O Punk nunca podia ganhar aqui. 😄 Ele passou a feud até aqui a apanhar o Booker quase sempre desprevenido e a dizer que o Booker basicamente não é digno de encabeçar a WCW por causa do passado dele... O Punk ganhar aqui era dar-lhe razão.

 

Já o Cena... É um rookie a perder para o gajo mais popular que acabou de chegar. Tem tempo para levar push.

 

Joe with anger issues ❤️ . E é feud para continuar, a divisão é super curta e o Chavo é dos melhores heels que tenho disponíveis.

 

Os Steiners são das minhas tags preferidas e a personagem tem potencial para muita coisa.

[The crowd echoes Kanyon's sentiment, expressing their discontent with the unexpected turn of events. Bischoff chuckles, relishing the chaos he's created.]

 

Eric Bischoff: Oh, Kanyon, you see, Nash – he's a bit of a prankster. You see, before he had even challenged you, he asked me his early release from his WCW contract. And to be honest, given his recent results, or lack thereof, I couldn’t be happier to scrap his bloated contract and let him go live a golden retirement up north. But don't worry, I've got something special for you. You still get your match tonight.

Dusty Rhodes: "Ladies and gentlemen, lemme tell ya somethin'. There ain't no bond stronger than the one between a father and his son.

The truth is he had a cushy upbringing, if ya weel, but I made sure he knew the value of hard work and respect."

 

[Dusty's voice trembles with emotion as he recalls moments from Dustin's childhood, his pride evident.]

 

Dusty Rhodes: "When Dustin came back to WCW, I thought, 'This is it. This is his chance to shine, to be even greater than his daddeh.' But what does he do? He turns his back on his friends, his family’s legacy, and joins forces with the Horsemen."

 

[As Dusty's voice rises, the arena falls silent, the tension palpable. Suddenly, Dustin's music hits, interrupting his father's speech. Dustin emerges, his expression a mix of defiance and frustration.]

 

Dustin Rhodes: "Hold on just a damn minute, Dad. I've had enough of your lectures. You wanna talk about disappointment?

Of seeing my dad spending all this time with my little brother Cody, when he never had any time for me?"

 

[Dusty's eyes narrow, his tone growing increasingly heated as he faces off with his son.]

 

Dusty Rhodes: "You wanna talk about disappointment, boy? How 'bout the disappointment of seein' my own flesh and blood turn his back on everythin' I taught him? You're a disgrace to this family, Dustin."

 

[Dustin bristles at his father's accusations, but Dusty isn't finished. He issues a challenge that catches everyone off guard.]

 

Dusty Rhodes: "You wanna prove me wrong, son? You wanna show me you've got what it takes to be a real champion? Then how 'bout this: next week, you put that United States Championship on the line... lets get funky like a monkey."

 

[The crowd erupts into murmurs of disbelief as Dustin hesitates, caught off guard by his father's audacity. But as Dusty's words sink in, Dustin's expression hardens, his resolve clear.]

 

Dustin Rhodes: "You want a shot at this title, Dad? You got it. But don't expect any favors from me. Next week, the whipping you’re gonna get is gonna be shameful."

 

[With tensions at an all-time high, father and son stare each other down, the promise of an epic showdown looming large over WCW.]

But let me tell you something: nobody stays on top forever, especially those who can’t play the game by its rules."

 

[Styles interjects, his words laced with confidence and ambition as he gestures emphatically.]

 

AJ Styles: "You hear that, world? I ain't backing down from nobody. I'll be here by Sting’s side to the end. And I will be damned if I let anyone take this Cruiserweight Championship from me. Starrcade's coming, and I plan on walking out with this title held high."

 

[Samoa Joe, his demeanor calm yet intense, adds his voice to the conversation, his words carrying weight with their quiet intensity.]

Tony Schiavone: (excited) It's Goldberg!

[With lightning speed, Goldberg closes the distance between himself and Bagwell, delivering a devastating spear that sends Bagwell crashing to the mat.
