NXT this week has Richie Steamboat against Kassius Ohno, based on Steamboat saving Jake Carter from a post-match beating from Ohno.
Richie Steamboat vs. Kassius Ohno
Pre-match, the vocal males cheer on Ohno while one lonely child chants Richie! Steamboats armdrags and headlocks annoy Ohno, but Steamboat continues to dominate. Ohno cant get any kind of offense going, but a thumb to the eye gets him some room, to the referees displeasure. The argument with the referee gives Steamboat time to recover and go back on the attack, so Ohno rakes the eyes again. The referee disqualifies Ohno.
Winner: Richie Steamboat Post-match, as Steamboat still reels, Ohno kicks him out of the ring and drops him on the guardrail. Ohno continues his assault and a second referee comes out to help calm things down. After Ohno leaves, Ricky Steamboat comes into the ring to berate the officials for failing to protect his son.
Audrey Marie vs. Paige
Marie controls Paige with headlocks as Paige struggles hard to escape. Takedown and they come back to the feet, and Paige eventually escapes. double leg takedown from Marie and they trade hair pulls and roll all over the ring. Marie with a unique move, she scissors Paige and then rolls her in a circle, settling into a pin attempt for two. Paige with a stiff elbow out of the corner to take control. Paige lifts Marie up into a bearhug of sorts and DDTs her for the win.
Winner: Paige
Backstage, Ricky Steamboat waves off Briley Pearce to get to see his son, but he encounters Kassius Ohno first. Ohno acts civil, and tells Steamboat that hes glad they met, so he could tell him that his son has little potential and asks if Ricky saw him hurting and defenseless. They end up pushing each other, and as referees come in to break it up, Ohno shouts, The dragon is mad, what are you going to do, armdrag me? That was pretty awesome, and by far the best thing Kassius Ohno has done in NXT so far.

The 1st topic is the fact that the 2 semi-finals in the ROH Tag Title Tournament at "Death Before Dishonor X" are set. They are S.C.U.M. vs. Coleman/Alexander and the Briscoes vs. Charlie Haas & Rhett Titus. It has also been revealed that off his indefinite suspension, Shelton Benjamin will be in Charlie Haas's corner at "Death Before Dishonor X". We go to comments from Haas & Titus.
Haas: "1 down, 2 to go and we're going to Chicago". "And guess what? Shelton Benjamin's coming with me, his suspension is up and you think I would honestly go in to a tournament of this magnitude with just Rhett Titus?" "You stupid?" "No, see Shelton's gonna be my cornerman for this tournament, he's gonna be there to see when I, along with Rhett Titus, win the semis and the finals". "And Rhett, I could care less if you like it or not, deal with it".
Titus: "We're headin' to Chicago, Death Before Dishonor and all of a sudden, Charlie Haas wants to drop this bombshell on me?" 'He lets me know that his regular partner, Shelton Benjamin, is gonna be in our corner for the Ring of Honor Tag Team Title Tournament?" "Well Shelton Benjamin, I don't trust you for a damn second". "And Shelton Benjamin, I don't particularly like you either". "So not only am I gonna have eyes on my opponents across the ring, I'm gonna have my eyes in the back of my head and just in case one of you guys wants to do something funny, you will find out that Rhett Titus may only be one man, but I can fight like two".
The final topic is that a new match has been announced for "Death Before Dishonor X" as Jay Lethal will face Homicide. We see video highlighting what happened last week with Lethal before we go to comments from him.
Lethal: "You know a couple of people have asked me why I did what I did, but the question is, are you really surprised?" "I mean, are you really shocked?" "When you think about it, a man can only be pushed and poked for so long before he changes his outlook on life". "And by no means am I saying I'm ready to rebel against society, but I am saying that I'm driven and my motivation is to become the Ring of Honor World Champion". "With that said, in Chicago Ridge, I take on Homicide, a former Ring of Honor World Champion, a man known to be nasty, a man who brings a fork to the ring". "Well Homicide, in Chicago Ridge, you bring that fork and I'll bring the main course, because I'm gonna hand feed you this ass whipping". "When I wake up, everyone in Ring of Honor, especially Jim Cornette and I open their eyes and I prove to them that I am the man that's gonna take out Kevin Steen, I am the man that's gonna become the next Ring of Honor World Champion".

Jerry Lawler Update: Fear of Brain Damage Posted by Steve Carrier on 09/11/2012 at 08:15 PM
Former WWE Diva Stacy Carter ("The Kat" and "Miss Kitty"), the ex-wife of Jerry Lawler, says the King is being taken out of sedation and is now responsive after undergoing more heart procedures on Tuesday.
There is now fear that Lawler might have suffered brain damage during RAW after suffering a heart attack, when his brain was deprived of oxygen for several minutes.
Carter released this statement on Facebook:
"I have an update on Jerry. The docs are removing his ventilation & taking him out of sedation. He is responsive, which is great!!! It took a while to revive him last night so there's the concern of brain damage. He had some tests done which will show how much if any damage there is due to the lack of oxygen to his brain. Unfortunately, the results won't be in until in the morning. I appreciate all the calls, texts, tweets, & Facebook messages of support & I know Jerry will too. Thanks everybody!!"

Jerry Lawler's Ex-Wife Provides Heath Update Posted by Steve Carrier on 09/11/2012 at 12:04 PM
Former WWE Diva and ex-wife of Jerry Lawler, Stacy Carter, provided the following update on the status of Jerry Lawler on Twitter earlier this morning.
Just got a @JerryLawler update. He had a stint & a balloon put in. Right now he is still heavily sedated. Will update when I know more
Matt Hardy announced today on his Twitter account today that he would be attending Death Before Dishonor X this Saturday and there are strong rumours that the former WWE & TNA wrestler is set for a major program in Ring of Honor.
Hardy was at the recent Caged Hostility event in Charlotte, NC and was even involved in a confrontation with Kevin Steen at the end of the event to hype up their upcoming match in PWX.
And it now looks probable that he is set for some sort of run in ROH. Earlier today, he tweeted: After visiting Ring of Honors event in NC & speaking with ROH executives, Ive been invited by ROH to attend their PPV Saturday in Chicago. I WILL be at Ring of Honor PPV, Ill be doing a signing & have FULL access to the locker room & talent. Extremely interested in 1 match..
After the news, PWInsider posted the following: We heard a few weeks ago that Hardy would be in for a major program that would include a iPPV main event (Im guessing Final Battle), so this is the kick-off to that storyline.
This news has been heavily discussed by the ROH community on our forum, be sure to add your opinion there too.
- After RAW went off the air, John Cena and Bret Hart hung around ringside for around 10 minutes with the fans. One sports journalist who was at ringside asked Hart about Jerry Lawler's condition and Hart told him that Lawler was in really bad shape.
- Jerry Lawler's heart attack at RAW last night has been picked up by several mainstream media outlets including FOX, CNN, the Associated Press and others.
- The mood backstage at RAW last night was a very tense one. When the scare with Jerry Lawler first happened, nobody was paying attention to the show and a lot of the crew were in groups praying.
More than one source is reporting that EMT's backstage saved Lawler's life. That gives you an idea of how serious Lawler's condition was. People were talking about how it's a good thing Lawler had the scare at a WWE event where proper medical staff were able to treat him and save his life. Lawler just returned from an independent wrestling tour of Aruba where things could have been different.
At last word, Lawler was listed in stable condition at the cardiac ICU of a local Montreal hospital. A fan in attendance at RAW noted that there are several hospitals within 15 minutes of the arena.
Jerry Lawler's Girlfriend Releases a Statement Posted by Steve Carrier on 09/11/2012 at 01:42 AM
- The following statement was sent to us via Facebook from Jerry Lawler's girlfriend Lauryn McBride:
"Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers. It has been confirmed that Jerry did have a heart attack he is in stable condition and breathing on his own & heart is stable. Im getting on the first flight out of here to be with him & will keep everyone posted. He is a strong man and we will get him back at his best as soon as I can get him home! I love you so so much baby!!"
Smith Hart, brother of WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart, says he was told by a friend
backstage at Monday's Raw at Centre Bell in Montreal, Quebec, Canada that Jerry
Lawler was "clinically dead" for twenty minutes being revived by a
defibrillator.
He wrote on Twitter, "According to my friend Jeremy
Prophet who was backstage at RAW, Jerry was clinically dead for 20 min before
being brought back by defibrilat."
According to the Sudden Cardiac
Arrest Foundation, clinical death is the medical term for cessation of blood
circulation and breathing, which are two necessary criteria to sustain life.
This occurs when the heart stops beating in a regular rhythm and is also known
as cardiac arrest.
Hart noted that "it has been confirmed that Jerry did
suffer a heart attack." Since medical personnel were at ringside, Lawler was
able to receive immediate treatment.
According to sources, Lawler
remains in stable condition. He is breathing on his own and his heart is beating
on its own, but is considered not out of danger.
WWE broadcaster and wrestler Jerry The King Lawler appeared more responsive
after collapsing ringside during Monday nights live episode of Raw.
Lawler, who had participated in a tag team match alongside Randy Orton
earlier in the show, collapsed at the announcer's table while commentating the
tag team match featuring Daniel Bryan and Kane vs. Darren Young and Titus ONeil
and was taken away on a stretcher. Lawler was backstage at the Centre Bell in
Montreal, Quebec, Canada receiving CPR.
This is not part of the show,
Lawlers broadcast partner Michael Cole stated at approximately 10:20 p.m. EST.
Lawler was transported to an area hospital where he was receiving oxygen
and breathing on his own, according to reports from Cole later on in the
telecast. He stated at 10:55 p.m. EST that he appeared more responsive and was
reacting to the lights in his eyes.
As the broadcast concluded at 11:14
p.m. EST, Cole stated that Lawler's condition had stabilized. "He is breathing
on his own. His heart is beating on its own," said Cole.
He is now being
prepared for a CAT scan of his chest and head.
There is a post-RAW
meeting ongoing right now where they are informing talents that he's now been
stabilized. Numerous talents were crying backstage when the incident happened/
We're told Lawler collapsed and fell out of his chair to the floor following a
tag-team match he was involved in on RAW. Paramedics immediately rushed out and
took him to the back. He appeared unconscious as they carried him to the back.
Several people in attendance saw him hunched over and convulsing in his seat
before he collapsed. Once they got him backstage, they performed CPR. Lawler had
what appeared like a seizure. The crew was cleaning the floor as he may have
vomited after falling out of his chair.
According to sources, backstage
during the commercial break, people were "running all over the place seemingly
not knowing what to do." There were numerous people crying as well. There was
also discussion of scrapping the show but they wound up finishing things up
without a commentary team.
UPDATE: Michael Cole returned to commentary
and said that Jerry Lawler passed out at ringside and collapsed. Cole said that
Lawler has been taken to a local hospital and is receiving oxygen and is
breathing on his own. Cole said that their prayers are with him and that out of
respect, there will be no further commentary for the show.
