NWA Wildside- Throwback Review Episode 39

6/5/00
Steve Martin (not working a Steve Martin gimmick) starts in the ring, and he cuts a promo about how he started NCW, but has lost it all thanks to Bill Behrens. He calls out Bad Attitude, tells Rick Michaels that they started in wrestling together, trained AJ Styles and he turned his back on them. He gives what is left of NCW to Michaels and quits the wrestling business.
Scottie Wren v. Stone Mountain
Wren calls out Mounain and they have an impromptu match. There was some back and forth at DVDVR whether Stone Mountain was Abyss, I am not sure, but he does suck like Abyss. Short match with Wren bailing to the back after getting hit by the landslide.
Jeff G. Bailey and AJ Styles brag about Steven Martin leaving the promotion.
Rusty Riddle v. Sean Royal
These guys would go on to form the tag team Total Destruction, this was before that. The announcer mention that Royal hadn't wrestled in 7 years, and how the New Breed's first match was against Rusty Riddle. Total Destruction was a brawling biker tag team, but this wasn't worked like biker v. biker. Royal was doing all kinds of weird submission moves on Riddle's leg including the Great Muta bridging indian death lock. Riddle is able to take over and hit a rope walk bulldog for a pin. Post match Royal puts him in a crazy lucha leg stretch and has to be dragged off. I am not sure whether it was a good match, but it was certainly entertaining.
Christopher Sampson comes out to demonstrate his Christian strength, by ripping a phone book apart. Terry Knight comes out and talks about people invading wrestling with their Christian strength demonstrations. Amusing old school wrestling angle, capped off by Sampson telling Knights valet that she was too beautiful inside to wear revealing clothes, and that a man will never love a woman he can't respect.
Jesse Taylor v. Thunder
Thunder is Jeff G. Bailey's surprise opponent. I would guess that he is of Thunder and Lightening fame. He is a pretty entertaining crowbar, as he really chucked Taylor around the ring. Taylor had some nice comebacks and had him beat with a belly to belly before the NWA Elite ran in, which lead to a show closing brawl with the babyfaces. Enjoyable little match
Nothing must see on this show, although I enjoyed both Riddle v. Royal and Taylor v. Thunder

Stone Mountain and Abyss are two separate people. They were both involved in the first Wildside War Games finish and later feuded with each other. Abyss is far superior to Mountain in almost every way, even if you think he sucks.
Abyss was Stone Mountain, according to every source I've ever seen. Don't know what the hell this other guy is talking about.
You can see them both together in the ring at the War Games match. Abyss is known as Justice and or Prince Justice. They are not the same guy. They wrestle each other on the TV show at some point. A clip is in the intro of the show at the time it happened. They clearly are not the same guy. Hell you can look on You Tube and see for yourself.
I've seen Stone Mountain, and pic of Chris Parks. It's the same fucking guy.
