October 8, 1998
Location: Market Square Arena, Indianapolis, Indiana
Commentators: Lee Marshall, Tony Schiavone, Bobby Heenan
We open with the laughter and Tony trying to find out what it is.
Mike Tenay is going to a bar forty miles away from the arena tonight to meet with Scott Hall. We go to the bar where Hall says Nash knows where he is tonight and can come find him if he wants. They used to hang out at a place called the Meridian and Nash can come down here anytime. Hall implies that Nash should drop the Wolfpack and just be the Outsiders again.
A limo is seen leaving the arena, presumably with Nash inside.
Kanyon vs. Prince Iaukea
Chris Jericho is outside a locker room yelling for Goldberg.
Scott Steiner video.
Peyton Manning is here.
Jerry Flynn vs. Meng
What do you expect here? Meng no sells everything and pounds Jerry down in the corner until Flynn comes back with a kick and cross body for two. Another kick is blocked and the Tongan Death Grip is good for the easy win.
Tokyo Magnum vs. El Dandy
Saturn vs. Scott Putski
They trade armbars to start until Saturn takes him to the mat with amateur stuff. Putski stis out in a nice move and blasts Saturn in the ribs with a kick to take over. Saturn pops back up and runs Putski over before firing off some nice kicks to the ribs and head. Back to the armbar but Putski sends him into the corner and clotheslines him out to the floor. Saturn goes into the barricade and Putski stomps away back inside.
Scott hammers away again with another clothesline and puts on a sleeper. Saturn quickly breaks it up with a jawbreaker and goes off on Putski with kicks and a quick suplex. A top rope knee drop gets two on Scott but he comes back with a nice powerslam for a near fall of his own. Saturn ducks an ax handle and suplexes Putski down again. The Death Valley Driver ends Putski with far less ease than expected.
Horace vs. Disciple
Horace jumps him post match.
Long video for Warrior vs. Hogan.
Horsemen montage.
Dean Malenko vs. Barbarian
Goldberg vs. Page video.
Diamond Dallas Page vs. Raven
Stevie Ray vs. Lex Luger
Konnan tries to come out for the save but gets laid out. Hall says he fooled Nash and does
the Survey to finally end this show.
