NEW YORK, NY --- The first Professional Wrestling Draft is complete and it was a historic one as Eric Bischoff took his guy from back when he run WCW as its own solo promotio, Hollywood Hogan, with the number one overall pick. Vince McMahon followed that by drafting his most popular ever star, The Rock with the 2nd overall pick in the draft. Eric Bischoff continued the ex-WCW theme with his second pick, opting to go with Big Poppa Pump, Scott Steiner. Vince then drafted a guy who has been the standard-bearer for Wrestlemania for years by taking The Deadman, The Undertaker with his second selection. Bischoff continued to select wrestlers who had shined more outside of the WWE with ECW Legend Rob Van Dam as his third pick and Vader as his fourth before selecting the first major steal from WWE, Trish Stratus, with his 5th overall selection. Vince continued to select WWE legends with Macho Man and Andre the Giant joining the fold before making a few surprising draft picks in Hurricane and Nikki Bella to close out his first six picks. After both sides made thirteen picks, several top stars from both companies were left undrafted, which means we can expect to see major shakeups and free agents signings throughout the calendar year. The full draft can be seen below:

Shinsuke Nakamura, the son of New Japan Pro Wrestling, was looking to make his debut in the United States in this matchup. And what a stage it was for his debut, taking on one of WCW's all-time greats, Vader, in a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match for the WCW Hardcore Championship. Nakamura took control of the matchup early, as the younger star used his speed and jiu-jitsu fighting style to overwhelm Vader early on. But the tide turned badly when Vader sent Nakamura careening into the ladder with an Irish Whip. Shinsuke was never really the same after that, and Vader took full advantage, eventually hitting the Vader Bomb before climbing up the ladder to secure the WCW Hardcore Championship.

Main Event: Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Vader | Extreme Rules | WCW Hardcore Championship :fourstar:
Vader beat the hell out of Shinsuke Nakamura inside and outside of the ring in this one, and things got particularly dangerous when he started going to town on him with a baseball bat. Nakamura was able to get some offense in, but eventually was too wounded to do anything. A Vader Bomb in the ring would be enough for Vader to put things away and retain the belt he defeated Nakamura for last week.
