On the Wildside TV Taping
report for 03.18.00 Tim Dix opened the show by introducing NWA VP Bill Behrens
who went to the ring carrying a tennis racket. Behrens began by saying that
after the assault on him by Rick Michaels at the last taping he had been advised
by Jim Cornette to carry a weapon and make sure someone watched his back.
Behrens then slammed Bad Attitude for what he called "gimmick
infringement" for their use of the Bad Attitude name, use of the Midnight
Express music, Rick Michael's "Chosen One" name, ending by saying
wrestlers should "Never, ever" steal another wrestler's material
(Chris Jericho's catch phrase). He then introduced the wrestlers who support
NWA, including Jeff G Bailey's group, (Terry Knight, Eddie Golden, Onyx, Rukkus)
and Al Getz and Scotty Wrenn, who came out wearing NWA T-shirts. He then
introduced Big Ron Studd (Ron Reese) and Luther Biggs. Biggs got on the
microphone saying they were Monday night stars, who had come to show the NCW
wrestlers what it takes to become big league. Behrens ended with a warning to
Michaels.

under 30 seconds after hitting his version of the Death Valley Driver
(03.18.00).
Steve Martin brought out Team
NCW, Rick Michaels, David Young, Romeo Bliss, Jorge Estrada, AJ Styles, and JC
Dazz, and made the point that not all of the wrestlers supported NWA, and that
NCW was a family (03.18.00).
Jorge Estrada pinned Jeremy
Lopez in a good match (03.18.00).
Big Ron Studd pinned Damien
Steele, Mark E Mark, and Big Eddie Cool after each received a choke-slam. Luther

Trash, and continue beating on him after the match, leading to JC Dazz hitting
the ring. Dazz went to the top rope but was hit from behind by Bill Behrens with
the tennis racket allowing Wrenn to do some damage to Dazz until members of Team
NCW made the save (03.18.00).
AJ Styles defeated Onyx. Onyx
came out dancing and Jeff G Bailey ran down Styles on the mike saying Onyx was a
former professional football player while Styles was a former cheerleader, and
that rather than have a match Styles should just come out and cheer for Onyx. At
one point in the match Bailey grabbed Styles leg as he attempted a suplex on
Onyx, so Onyx landed on Styles and was about to pin him when Michaels and Young
ran out, causing Bailey to let go of Styles' leg. Styles kicked out, but Onyx
thought he had won. Onyx was then caught by Styles and pinned. In the confusion
Eddie Golden ran out and stole Styles' TV Title Belt (03.18.00).
Bad Attitude defeated Eddie
Golden and Terry Knight when Knight was on the receiving end of Rick Michaels'
frog splash, followed by David Young's moonsault. After the match Bailey's men
attacked Michaels and Bill Behrens came to ringside with a shootfighter, Jason
Ultima, who first attacked Young then Michaels then Young again and was about to
stretch Michaels again when members of Team NCW cleared the ring. Michaels and
Young were helped to the back (03.18.00).
In the final match Abdullah
the Butcher with Honest John made their presence felt. Butcher started by
attacked Billy Love, bloodying him up, and breaking a golf stick over his back.
Jeff G Bailey then sent Frenchy Riviera to the ring, and soon he was a bloody
mess. Butcher dropped the elbow on Riviera and Rukkus attacked Butcher and the
match between the two was on. Soon Butcher was bleeding, and Rukkus was in
control. Butcher made a comeback and soon Rukkus was busted open. Somewhere in
here, referee Jimmy River was busted open by Butcher. At one point a fan tried
to attack Butcher with a chair but was held back by security. As Butcher was
jamming a fork into Rukkus, Bailey sent John Arden to the ring, but Abby cut him
off and soon he was bleeding. Rukkus recovered, and he and Abby moved to the
floor and brawled to the back. Jeff G Bailey was in the ring cheering on Rukkus
and was nearly caught from behind by his former bodyguard Stone Mountain. Bailey
got away, and Mountain got the mike and said that at Hardcore Hell on 04.01.00
he would face Rukkus, and go through him to get to Bailey (03.18.00).
