Commentators: Tony Schiavone, Mark Madden
Quick recap, with clips instead of stills. Yeah even WCW knows no one was buying the replay.
The announcers run down the card for tonight. I can get this on a TV show, but the pay per view version still makes no sense.
Sid arrives, sans bags or title.
Kidman vs. Lash Leroux
Whoever has stolen the KidCam films Buff Bagwell hitting on Symphony and ripping on Maestro. She turns him down so he says this never happened.
Vampiro vs. Fit Finlay
During the entrances, Tony shills the WCW Magazine, featuring a profile on NWO 2000, complete with Nash and Bret. Finlay blocks an early spinwheel kick and hits Vampiro with his cast. They head outside as Tony promises a ruling on the Jarrett situation next segment. I wait with bated breath. On top of that, the cage match will be last man standing. Heaven forbid Luger take two falls in two days.
Madusa whispers something to La Parka. He says si.
Booker vs. Big Vito
Tag Team Titles: Booker vs. Mamalukes
The Harris Twins come in and clean house.
Main event stills.
Sid is livid about something he saw.
Cruiserweight Title: La Parka vs. The Artist Formerly Known As Prince Iaukea
Flair rants about Hogan as Luger warms up.
Terry Funk/Dustin Rhodes vs. Harris Brothers
Dustin wears him out even more until the referees break it up.
Buff is ready for Maestro and basically blames the match on Symphony.
Dustin beats up Terry again and steals the ambulance.
Gene says Dustin is on the same route Jarrett is in. I know Gene is good but being able to tell where Jarrett went when he pulled out of a parking lot is impressive.
Kidman and Booker want to fight the Twins.
Ric thinks Dustin did the right thing and wants to send a message to Hogan.
Buff Bagwell vs. Maestro
Chae and Tygress dance in cages.
The Wall vs. Bam Bam Bigelow
Hogan is behind a piece of cage and screaming for Luger.
Ric wants to fight Arn Anderson. Arn just sitting there staring at him is perfect, as you can imagine Arn doing that to Ric in a thousand bars over the years.
Luger and Flair beat up Jimmy Hart and drag him to the ring for the main event.
Total Package vs. Hulk Hogan
