Nitro recap.
Dean Malenko vs. Booker T.
Booker (with Stevie) nails Dean with a forearm and the ax kick to start but Dean pokes him in the eye and sends him outside. Saturn and Stevie get into it on the floor as Booker goes back inside for a spinebuster. Booker loads up another ax kick but Shane nails him in the head with the cast, setting up the Cloverleaf on the unconscious Booker for the quick win.
The Artist Formerly Known As Prince Iaukea vs. Vampiro
Prince goes after Oklahoma post match and gets beaten up by Dr. Death.
Russo fires Mona for losing on Monday. Good. Go be the adorable Molly Holly and get to actually show off a bit instead. Rhonda Singh comes in and thanks Russo as Hennig and the twins snicker at her weight. She has a plan to get ratings. Could that plan be to have a boss who makes sure that every viewer knows that women are totally beneath him and how powerful he is over them? Oh and that Singh is fat and we should all laugh at her?
Saturn and Stevie Ray fight in the back.
Rhonda Singh vs. Madusa
David Flair starts talking about his match in the Block (boiler room) with Jerry Flynn. He starts saying To Be The Man but cracks up instead.
Stevie nails Saturn with a Surge container.
David Flair goes to fight Flynn in the boiler room but runs into Buzzkill, who wants them to give peace a chance. David tries to hit him with the crowbar but Flynn takes him down. Cue Tank Abbott for the first time in about six and a half months to lay out Flynn. This was billed as a match, believe it or not.
Tag Team Titles: Goldberg/Bret Hart vs. Creative Control
Saturn vs. Stevie Ray
Total Package vs. Buff Bagwell
Duggan asks Russo for a match tonight but is told no one cares about him.
Jim Duggan vs. Asya
ENOUGH OF THE MAN VS. WOMAN STUFF! It worked with Chyna but this has been old for weeks now. And no match as Creative Control, La Parka and Hennig run in to beat down Duggan. The Revolution comes out with hot dogs and pies to make it a big mess. Harlem Heat comes out for the save.
Benoit/Sid/Rhodes are ready for the main event.
Sting vs. Diamond Dallas Page
Scott Hall/Kevin Nash/Jeff Jarrett vs. Chris Benoit/Dustin Rhodes/Sid Vicious
