WWA Results: 5/21 Sydney Australia Thanks to Dan Lennard, 3e6r.net reader for this recap: Bret Hart opened up the show and cut a decent promo about being back in wrestling. Crowd gave him a nice response. - Chris "The Future" Sabin beat Frankie "The Future" Kazarian in a WWA Cruiserweight Tourney semi-final match. - Konnan pinned Disco Inferno. Disco used his WCW gimmick and tried but Konnan was terrible. Konnan botched up the Pedigree finish because his trousers were nearly falling down. - Teo beat Puppet and Meatballs in three-way dance after Teo swantoned Meatballs. Horrible. Shane Douglas came out afterwards and beat up the midgets. He then demanded to be put in the main event between WWA champ Sting and Rick Steiner. Promoter Andrew McManus agreed and the match was signed. Guess Rick didn't want to do the job in the main event. - Jerry Lynn beat Johnny Swinger in a WWA Cruiserweight Tournament match. Lynn won with the cradle piledriver. - Crowbar beat Mark Mercedes (veteran Aussie wrestler) in a hard-core, falls-count-anywhere match. Decent bout. - Sabu beat Joe E. Legend. Good match. - Jerry Lynn beat Sabin to win the WWA Cruiserweight Title despite Disco's interference. Lynn won with another cradle piledriver. The match went 15 minutes and was easily the best of the night. Lynn was clearly the MVP of the show. - Sting beat Rick Steiner and Shane Douglas in a three-way to retain the WWA Title. Sting pinned Shane after giving him the Scorpion Death Drop. Better match than I expected. Sting won the match and got the hell out of there. No post-match interviews or anything. NOTES: The estimated crowd was around 1500 in a 10,000 seat arena. No-shows for this event were: MALICE, MIDAJAH, JEFF JARRETT, ERICA, and HORSHU. All were advertised but were not on the show.
