Card rating: ***
Match observations:
We have moved past the halfway point of the tournament. Air Raid has no chance to advance, and the other 2 cruiserweight teams will need 2 wins and some luck to take second place. Of the two teams, Guerrero and Noble might have the best shot, they hold the tiebreaker over ADONIS.
Speaking of ADONIS, they have yet to face the 2 top teams, so while they might be third, they have arguably their two toughest opponents yet.
ADONIS came out in force after the main event. Surprisingly they did not attack, instead Bagwell took Page to task for giving his friend, who Buff has beaten twice a title shot before giving Bagwell a rematch. Page had to reluctantly agree that Bagwell was the number one contender, and agreed to face him at Fall Brawl.
Booker T challenged The Wall to meet him next week, in a Falls Count Anywhere Street Fight.

[Las Vegas Street Fight]: No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Falls-Count-Anywhere Match: Booker T pinned The Wall with the Book End in 0:07:30. Rating: ** 3/4
Card rating: ***
Match observations:
Wow, the tournament just got very interesting, Team Canada is guaranteed a spot in the finals. Next week's match between ADONIS and AMW is make or break for both teams, but even if ADONIS wins, Chavo Guerrero and Jaime Noble can sneak right pass with a win over Air Raid, as they hold the all-important tiebreaker over ADONIS.
Billy Kidman has been ending matches quickly with the Shooting Star Press. He will need that, and every other move in his arsenal at Fall Brawl when he faces the undefeated Christopher Daniels.
Booker T was asked after his match whether he would rematch Kanyon for the United States title. He responded that while he owed Kanyon some payback, he was setting his sights on becoming a World Champion again.

Results of Nitro 9/3/2001:

Team Canada (Mike Awesome and Lance Storm) defeated Elix Skipper and Kid Romeo when L. Storm pinned Romeo after a small package in 0:07:05. Rating: *** 1/4
ADONIS (Johnny the Bull and Shawn Stasiak) defeated America's Most Wanted (Chris Harris and James Storm) when S. Stasiak pinned C. Harris with the Hangman's Neckbreaker in 0:16:55. Rating: *** 1/4
Card rating: *** 1/4
Match observations:
It's been a long road for the former champions, but ADONIS has earned another shot at the Tag Teams Titles. Team Canada has been trying to win the titles ever since the Big Bang, and with 4 straight wins, it might just be their time.
As for the three cruiserweight teams, they each have one win and one loss against each other, could a triple threat match be in their future?
Kanyon's old partner Bryan Clark, AKA Wrath, just earned a shot at his United States title. Fall Brawl is shaping up to be an interesting event.

Results of Fall Brawl 2001:
Kwee Wee pinned Kaz Hayashi after a Northern Lights suplex in 0:10:03. Rating: *** 1/4 [Leia Meow interfered against Kwee Wee.]
America's Most Wanted (Chris Harris and James Storm) defeated Jason Jett and Lash LeRoux when J. Storm pinned LeRoux with the 8 Second Ride in 0:07:31. Rating: *** 3/4
Booker T pinned Reno with the Book End in 0:09:12. Rating: ** 1/4
Triangle Match: Air Raid (Air Paris and AJ Styles) defeated Chavo Guerrero Jr. and Jamie Noble and Elix Skipper and Kid Romeo when Styles pinned Skipper after a belly-to-back lifting mat slam in 0:09:37. Rating: *** 1/4 (Air Raid won the WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship.)
Sean O'Haire pinned The Wall with the Seanton Bomb in 0:21:21. Rating: ** 3/4
Billy Kidman pinned Christopher Daniels after a small package in 0:00:25. Rating: * (Billy Kidman retained the WCW World Cruiserweight Championship.)
Chris Kanyon pinned Bryan Clark with the Flatliner in 0:16:05. Rating: *** 1/4 (Chris Kanyon retained the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship.)
Match for the vacant WCW World Tag Team Championship: Team Canada (Mike Awesome and Lance Storm) defeated ADONIS (Johnny the Bull and Shawn Stasiak) when Awesome defeated S. Stasiak by disqualification in 0:13:35. Rating: ** 3/4 (The WCW World Tag Team Championship remained vacant.) [Stacy Keibler interfered against Mike Awesome.]
Diamond Dallas Page defeated Buff Bagwell by disqualification in 0:11:44. Rating: ** 1/2 (Diamond Dallas Page retained the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.)
Card rating: ** 1/2
Match observations:
Fall Brawl was kind of a bust, the last two matches ending on a DQ. The tag titles remain vacant, and it looks like nothing was settled between DDP and Buff Bagwell.
Everyone thought that Kidman would break out the high risk moves against Christopher Daniels, instead he countered a body slam attempt for the win. The Fallen Angle didn't accept the quick loss, he laid out Billy Kidman from behind with the Last Rites.
The last of the pre-Big Bang champions lost their titles, as the inaugural cruiserweight tag champions were defeated in tonight's triple threat match. Can Air Raid defeat them the two on two? Only time will tell.

Just in case you are not on the TNM Discord channel yet, I am posting a second take of this concept there and testing out the new TNM live plugin in the process. I just posted the Starrade Card, so it is a good point to jump on if you are interested.
