Opening sequence.
La Parka/Chavo Guerrero Jr. vs. Silver King/El Dandy
A DDT gets two for King but he lets Chavo in, only to take him down just as easily as he took out La Parka. When did Silver King get good? A slingshot elbow gets two on Chavo and everything breaks down again. La Parka pulls Dandy out of the corner and onto his shoulders for a high cross body from Chavo, who follows with the tornado DDT to put El away.
Hogan checks on Hart and wants Luger and Flair out there tonight.
Kaz Hayashi vs. Psychosis
They shake hands post match but Iaukea runs out and lays both guys out, including hitting the middle rope DDT on Psychosis. Some challenger.
Team Package vs. Hogan in a handicap match later.
Tank Abbott vs. Buzzkill
You get the idea by now. Buzzkill is out in 23 seconds.
Back from a break and Wall is beating up David Flair and Crowbar. He drags David to the concession area (save it for Tupelo people) and then and then to the balcony, but Bam Bam Bigelow runs up to stop Wall from the whole killing David thing. Bigelow and Wall fight into the lobby and Wall is sent through a table. Sounds like we need a (re?)match on Sunday.
Kidman wishes Booker luck against Jarrett and kisses Torrie.
Wall is taken away by cops. I knew that whole attempted murder thing would get him in trouble eventually.
US Title: Booker vs. Jeff Jarrett
Sid saves Booker from the spray paint.
Vampiro vs. Hugh Morrus
This Week in WCW Motorsports.
Demon/Norman Smiley vs. Brian Knobbs/The Dog
Long video on Uncensored.
Team Package loves the idea of having Hogan 2-1 tonight.
Kidman vs. Dustin Rhodes
Rhodes slugs him up against the ropes but Kidman comes back for two off a quick cross body. After a quick trip to the floor for a breather, Dustin comes back in and stomps Kidman down, only to eat a dropkick and Bodog out of the corner. For some reason Rhodes tries to go up but gets caught with ease. Kidman loads up a belly to back suplex but Dustin grabs the cowbell to knock him silly, setting up the bulldog for the pin.
Total Package/Ric Flair vs. Hulk Hogan
