On this day in history in ....
1980 - Jack Brisco defeats Terry Funk in a tournament final for the Georgia National Heavyweight Title.
2000 - In Sydney, Australia, Cpl. Cajun (Lash LeRoux) & Lt. Loco (Chavo Guerrero Jr.) defeat Mark Jindrak & Sean O'Haire for the WCW Tag Team Title, only to lose it right back to Jindrak & O'Haire before the end of the night.
2001 - Billy Kidman defeats X-Pac for the WCW Cruiserweight Title (which was now owned by WWF) in Moline, Illinois, ending X-Pac's second run with the title and beginning Kidman's fifth title reign.
2002 - At the TNA Pay-per-view in Nashville, Tennessee, Syxx-Pac defeats AJ Styles, Kid Kash, Ace Steel, Jose & Joel Maximo, and Tony Mamaluke in a Ladder Match to win the vacant X-Division Title. Syxx-Pac wasn't even involved in the majority of the match. As AJ Styles was about to win the bout, he ran down, suplexed Styles off the ladder, and grabbed the belt. Since the rules stated whoever grabbed the belt first was the champion, Syxx-Pac won the championship.
