How I Would Book it.......... WCW 1999-2000 Part 5

December 20^th Monday Nitro: State College, PA

Highlights of Starrcade, © Shane Helms def Super Calo in a Cruiserweight title Match, The New Blood are out and each say something about they said they’d beat the “Legends” and they did. Then Jeff introduces the reason they stayed one step ahead of the “Legends” David Flair. David clues the people in on how he did it, how duped his dad and the other feeble minded supposed legends into thinking he got fired. It was sad to actually see his dad pretend that he cares for the first time in David’s life but what made it all worth it was seeing his dad’s face when he jumped the rail last night and his dad saying What the Hell are you doing here!!!!! To think it was me that made my dad lose the biggest match of his career makes me happy.
