10 Best WCW Monday Nitro Matches Ever

7. Cruiserweight Title: Billy Kidman vs. Juventud Guerrera (September 14, 1998)

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xjye3f_billy-kidman-vs-juventud-guerrera_sport This was a huge match for Kidman because it came at a time when Raven's Flock stable had just disbanded, so he was on his own. He didn't even have theme music for this match, a Cruiserweight Title match against Juventud Guerrera, who was one of WCW's best high flyers. At the start of the match, it didn't seem like the crowd was into it and then the action really picked up, which forced them to wake up a little. It was the perfect example of winning over the crowd based on the action in the ring because it's not like they had a storyline or anything. It was all about the action in this match and Kidman trying to prove himself as a singles performer. It looked like Juvi was going to win with a 450 Splash, but Kidman caught him in mid air with a Powerbomb counter. Kidman went up top and hit a Shooing Star Press for the win. It was the first time he won the Cruiserweight Title.
