Eleven years ago, Ultimo Dragon would come out on top in possibly the biggest match of his career. It would take place in Osaka, Japan. Great Sasuke would be his oppent in the J-Crown's final match. The winner would obatain the IWGP Junior Heavyweight, NWA World Junior Heavyweight, WAR International Junior Heavyweight, British Commonwealth Junior Heavyweight, WWF World Light Heavyweight, UWA World Light Heavyweight, WWA World Junior Heavyweight, and NWA World Welterweight titles. Not long after, he would gain the WCW World Cruiserweight Title. Nine titles total would be in his possession. Ultimo Dragon still competes in the independents today after a solid, twenty-year career. He was and is one of few superior in the World's cruiserweight divisions.

Failure.
In wrestling history, there have been many successes and many failures. One recent failure occurred in 1999. It was slated to be a monumental pay-per-view by many wrestling fans. It was Heroes of Wrestling, a PPV that would feature many legends. Many of the matches didn't disappoint, but there were several loses. One was a Too Cold Scorpio and Julio Fantastico (Dinero), who isn't a legend, match that had an awful ending. All the non main event matches weren't completely horrible including a One Man Gang Vs. Abdullah the Butcher bloodbath. After seven matches, it was main event time. The whole thing started with a Jake Roberts promo, he was normally excellent , but tonight he was of his game, slurring words and not arousing desired "DDT" chants. Jake Roberts would square off against Jim Neidhart in main event number one which started with two awful entrances. Roberts and Neidhart would soil the match with botched moves, ignorant poses, and embarrassing gestures. King Kong Bundy came out even though he was supposed to face Yokozuna to end the show, but the current bout turned into a tag match between Roberts and Yokozuna versus Neidhart and Bundy. The match was looking to be a major disappointment . Towards the end, Bundy and Neidhart walked to the back after Bundy's one-time-only manager Little Bundy got a "Somoan drop" by Yokozuna. Then it looked as if Roberts was going to put the snake he brought to the ring in Yokozuna's pants when the screen went black and then it showed Yoko walking to the back when the show ended. What would be the aftermath of the event can be summed up in one word. Failure.

The Big Move P2
Kurt Angle shocked the world last year where he left his safe haven, WWE, and jumped to TNA, a promotion just starting to catch up. On this day, he would make his T.V. debut on TNA Impact. He would attempt to attack the NWA World Heavyweight Champion, Samoa Joe. Joe would not succumb to the attack, and security would be forced to enter the ring. Today, Angle is still on top of his game in TNA for he is their World Champion.
