Last week on RAW, Shawn Michaels collapsed in the ring. Our hosts are Vince McMahon and Jerry Lawler.
The opening match is Ahmed Johnson vs. Rad Radford. Bob Backlund is shown in the crowd arguing with the fans. Johnson makes quick work of Radford with a Spinebuster and the double arm underhook powerbomb finisher he calls the "Pearl River Plunge" for the win.
Lawler talks to Johnson and tells Johnson that Dean Douglas will teach him a lesson at In Your House. Douglas comes out and Johnson wants to fight him right here, right now, but the referees prevent this from happening.
A video is shown of what might have caused Shawn Michaels' injuries that got him to collapse last week. There is the Syracuse incident. Then he took the Razor's Edge, Sid's Powerbomb, and Yokozuna's massive leg drop at Survivor Series that could have contributed to the injuries as well. Then last week, they show Owen Hart giving him the enziguri kick to the back of his head.
Aja Kong and Tomoko Watanabe defeat Alundra Blayze and Kyoko Inoue. Next we see a video showing Diesel going nuts at Survivor Series and the subsequent interview last week on Raw where he said he was back.
It's time for The Brother Love show where he interviews WWF Champion Bret "The Hitman" Hart. Of course, Love talks the whole interview and doesn't let Bret speak, saying Hart is afraid of The Undertaker and that he's made his mother cry with feuding with brother Owen and will take on his brother-in-law again.
Hart had enough and grabbed the microphone from Love and runs down Diesel for what he did at Survivor Series. He says he's not thinking Undertaker yet and will deal with him but now he's thinking about the upcoming match with Davey Boy Smith and will get revenge from SummerSlam 92. Out of nowhere comes Bob Backlund, who locks Hart in the Crossface Chickenwing.
Hunter Hearst Helmsley easily defeats a jobber with the Pedigree. Jim Cornette has an open challenge to any WWF wrestler to take on Owen Hart at In Your House. He says anyone who faces Owen will end up just like Shawn Michaels, in the hospital.
It's time for the main event which was supposed to be The Undertaker taking on Kama. However, Kama comes out on crutches and Sir Mo will take his place. Kama soon shows he's not injured and throws down his crutches and attacks The Undertaker.
The Undertaker soon no-sells Mo's attacks and soon takes control. Undertaker rolls out of the ring and hits Kama and throws him into the ring steps. Undertaker gives Mo the Chokeslam for the 1-2-3. Undertaker grabs Kama's gold chain that used to be his urn and handed it over to Paul Bearer.
King Mabel comes out as does Yokozuna. Mabel distracts Undertaker while Yokozuna climbs into the ring. As Undertaker and Yokozuna stare down one another, Mabel hits Bearer and takes back the gold chain and walks back to the locker room as Undertaker goes after him.
Next week on RAW, Razor Ramon defends the Intercontinental Championship against Dean Douglas and Marty Jannetty takes on Sycho Sid.

WCW Monday Nitro: November 27, 1995
We are live from Salem, VA with our hosts Eric Bischoff, Bobby Heenan, and Steve McMichael one night after World War 3 and Randy Savage being the new WCW World Heavyweight Champion. Footage of World War 3 is shown of Hulk Hogan going back to yellow and red and befriending Sting once again. Tonight, Sting will team with Lex Luger to take on Arn Anderson and Brian Pillman.
First match up is a rematch from last night's World War 3 PPV as Johnny B. Badd and his new valet The Diamond Doll Kimberly defends his TV Title against Diamond Dallas Page. Page comes out with a bouquet of flowers as he tries to get Kimberly back with him. Meanwhile, he sucker punches Badd and attacks him.
Kimberly finds a chain in the bouquet and Page asks her to give him the chain. She throws it but it lands in Badd's hands and he uses it on Page to knock him out for the 1-2-3 to retain the TV Title. Afterwards, Badd asked who Kimberly was really throwing the chain to and she said "All that matters is that you won." Badd still looks confused.
Eric Bischoff mentions Hulk Hogan will face Hugh Morris tonight and mentions again Sting teaming with Lex Luger. Bobby Heenan is shown holding a Japanese flag. Gene Okerlund interviews Kevin Sullivan and Jimmy Hart. Sullivan wants to know why Hart didn't prevent Sting from telling Luger to release the hold on Randy Savage to take him out. Hart tells Sullivan he has a plan.
We have a second rematch from last night as Cutie Suzuki and Mayumi Ozaki take on Bull Nakano and Akira Hokuto. This would be another good match between these four women. Nakano hits both Suzuki and Ozaki with a double clothesline and Hokuto hits both with a Missile dropkick. She gives Suzuki a Brainbuster for the 1-2-3.
Next up is Hulk Hogan, who believes he should be the WCW World Heavyweight Champion, takes on the newest member of the Dungeon of Doom in Hugh Morris. Morris hits Hogan with his Moonsault but only gets a two-count as Hogan "Hulks up." Typical three right hands, the big boot, and the leg drop for the 1-2-3.
Gene Okerlund calls out new WCW World Heavyweight Champion Macho Man Randy Savage after the commercial break. Savage says if Hogan has a problem with him being the champion, it's time to settle it (perhaps a title match at Starrcade?).
Hogan comes down and says everyone saw him get pulled under the ropes and not over the top rope and wasn't eliminated. He also mentions that his name is still on the title belt. Hogan then asks for the video to be shown and we are shown Hogan eliminating Sting, Lex Luger, and The Giant and then just before he was pulled out of the ring by Giant, the video goes black.
The Giant runs down and attacks Hogan from behind. He then gives Savage a Chokeslam onto the concrete floor. Giant then keeps pounding on Hogan and brings him into the ring but Sting runs in to make the save.
Hogan then grabbed a steel chair and hit Giant repeatedly with the chair and even knocked down a referee that got in his way. Hogan keeps hitting Giant with the chair up the aisle way until Sting tells him to stop once they get to Savage to check on his condition. Eric Bischoff thinks Sting is part of The Dungeon of Doom.
It's time for the main event between Sting and Lex Luger against Arn Anderson and Brian Pillman. Both Sting and Luger come out to separate entrances. Luger nails Arn with the flying forearm and Sting hits Arn with the Stinger Splash. He puts Arn into the Scorpion Death Lock. Pillman climbs the top rope, but is pushed off by Luger but he lands on Sting to break the hold.
Bischoff believes that was deliberate. The Horsemen double-team Sting and Sting tries to go for the tag, but Luger wasn't in his corner as Pillman baited him. Luger finally comes in to help Sting and takes Arn out. Sting rolls up Pillman for the 1-2-3.
After the match, Arn hits Sting with a DDT. Ric Flair runs down and attacks Luger. Flair and Arn hold Luger for a Flying Splash by Pillman. Flair then puts Sting in the Figure Four until Hulk Hogan runs down and attacks all three members of the Horsemen. Hogan wants to punch Luger, but Sting holds him back and allows Luger to escape. Hogan wonders what's up with Sting, but they shake hands and hug.
Eric Bischoff mentions how Randy Savage won the world title with one bad arm and talks about him some more as the show ends.

WCW World War 3
We are live from The Scope in Norfolk, VA for the first ever World War 3 PPV with your hosts Tony Schiavone and Bobby Heenan. They hype up tonight's 60-man, 3-ring battle royal with the winner to become the new WCW World Heavyweight Champion.
Gene Okerlund interviews Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and Sting. Hogan takes off his dark clothes and shows he's back to wearing yellow and red and throws the black clothes in a garbage can and they light it on fire. Hogan then references how the internet community (Dave Meltzer) says Savage won't wrestle because of the arm injury, but Hogan says the injury was a plan and puts a piece of paper saying Savage won't wrestle into the fire.
The opening match is for the WCW World Television Championship between Johnny B. Badd and Diamond Dallas Page with the winner to get both the title AND The Diamond Doll Kimberly. Badd tries to hit Page with the Tootie Frootie, but he puts Kimberly in front of him so Badd won't hit him. Page cowardly punches Badd. Page does a move and tells Kimberly to give him a "10" and hold up the sign, but she refuses.
Badd then gives Page a clothesline and she holds up a "10+" sign. Badd would give Page the Tootie Frootie and knocks him out of the ring. Badd then gives Page a somersault over the top rope onto Page. Badd puts Page back into the ring as Badd would slingshot over the top rope on the apron and into the ring with a leg drop to pin Page for the 1-2-3 to retain the title and gain the services of Kimberly.
Next up is the lame ass Taped Fist match between Hacksaw Jim Duggan and Big Bubba Rogers. The match was ridiculously long as V.K. Wallstreet (I.R.S.) interfered and looked to hit Duggan with a chain. Duggan nailed him with his 2x4, but the chain ends up in Rogers' hand and he nails Duggan with it. Duggan can not get up before the count of 10 as Rogers won.
Gene Okerlund interviews Ric Flair as Flair says he will win the battle royal tonight and plans to have Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and Sting all in the same ring.
It's time for the Japanese women's tag team match featuring Cutie Suzuki (and a cutie she is) & Mayumi Ozaki (also a cutie as I like asian women) vs. Bull Nakano & Akira Hokuto (who I don't think are too cute). You may remember Nakano for challenging Alundra Blayze last year for the WWFs Women's Championship.
This was a thrilling match as Nakano has Ozaki on her shoulders as Hokuto jumps off the top rope and they deliver a Road Warriors Doomsday Device, but they only get a two-count thanks to Cutie making the save. Hokuto takes care of Cutie as Nakano delivers a leg drop off the top rope onto Ozaki (ouch!) for the 1-2-3 and the win.
Gene Okerlund is talking to Lex Luger and Jimmy Hart. Luger says he will beat Macho Man and then win the battle royal later to become the new WCW World Heavyweight Champion.
Kensuke Sasaki, w/Sonny Oono, defends his newly won United States Heavyweight Championship against new Four Horsemen member Chris Benoit. Oono joins the broadcast team for commentary as Benoit gives Sasaki two German Suplexes and tried a third before Sasaki avoided it and gives Benoit a clothesline.
Benoit reverses a Tombstone attempt into a Tombstone of his own and then gives Sasaki a flying headbutt off the top rope for a two-count. A flying Hurricanrana off the top rope by Benoit also only gives him a two-count.
Sasaki blocks a kick and gives him a Spinebuster and locked Benoit in a head/arm submission, but Benoit gets to the ropes to break the hold. Sasaki gives Benoit a Brainbuster for the 1-2-3 to retain the title.
Gene Okerlund is with Kevin Sullivan, The Giant, and Jimmy Hart. Hart says he is not worried about Hulk Hogan going back to yellow and red. Sullivan says a member of the Dungeon of Doom will win tonight and Giant says he will throw Hogan over the top rope and win back his title that he did not lose.
Next we are shown a video package highlighting the feud between Randy Savage and Lex Luger. Okerlund is with Savage. Savage says Luger will find out that Savage is "The Total Package" and says his arm is a "million percent." Sure whatever.
It's time for the Savage-Luger match as Savage quickly attacks him with right hands and choking him. Savage dominates as he took him outside and beat him out there and brought him back into the ring, where he gave Luger a scoop slam and the Flying Elbow Drop. However, Jimmy Hart is on the apron distracting the referee, preventing him from counting three.
Savage throws Luger onto Hart on the outside. Savage throws Luger into the guardrail before Luger counters by slamming Savage back first into the ring apron. Luger then puts Savage into the Torture Rack on the outside.
Luger throws Savage back into the ring and gives him an armbar on his bad arm. Savage is out cold as the referee raises his hand three times to signal that Luger has won the match. Luger holds onto the hold on Savage until Sting runs down and whispers something to Luger, like Luger did a few weeks ago to Sting, and Luger releases the hold.
Up next is the Sting-Ric Flair match as a highlight video between these two was shown highlighting their feud. Sting attacks Flair with right hands and a gorilla press slam. Sting would then no-sell Flair's chops and give him more right hands and gorilla press slams.
For some reason, Sister Sherri and Col. Rob Parker are out here and smooching. Flair works on Sting's knee as he clips him, gives him a back suplex and applies the Figure Four on Sting. Sting gains adrenaline and turns over the move.
Sting gets a backslide for a two-count and no sells another chop. Sting gives Flair yet another press slam and some clotheslines. Flair climbs the top rope and Sting slams him off the top rope. Flair does the usual Flair flip and Sting hits him with a clothesline to the floor.
Sting gives Flair punches in the corner until Flair tries to atomic drop him, only to miss and Sting to punch him to take him down. Sting gives Flair a Superplex and locks him in the Scorpion Death Lock. Flair submits as Sting wins.
Now it's time for the main event: the 60-man, 3-ring over-the-top-rope battle royal with the winner to win the vacant WCW World Heavyweight Championship. I don't even know 60 WCW wrestlers as they get some jobbers and some random guys for one night only to fill out the roster which makes it weaker.
Surprisingly, the nearly "8-ft-tall" Yeti was the first eliminated barely 30 seconds in. WCW has three different sets of announcers at each ring as they go to each ring for a little while to call the action. Soon it goes from three rings, to two, to finally just one. Hawk is eliminated by Hulk Hogan who then eliminates Kensuke Sasaki to leave just 10 men in the ring.
Hogan eliminates Paul Orndorff. Arn Anderson throws Eddie Guerrero over the top rope while Hogan and Sting team up and pound on Ric Flair. Sting throws Flair over the top rope while Hogan eliminates Anderson at roughly the same time, leaving just six men.
Hogan helps Randy Savage try to throw One Man Gang over the top rope as Sting and Lex Luger work on The Giant by hitting him with a double clothesline him over the top rope. They try and throw Giant over the top while Hogan comes over to throw them all out over the top rope just as Savage eliminates Gang.
While the attention is on Savage eliminating Gang, the refs all miss The Giant pulling Hogan out of the ring underneath the ropes, which means he is not eliminated. However, the refs only see Savage in the ring and assume Hogan was eliminated so Savage is declared winner and new WCW World Heavyweight Championship.
This is the first of his WCW career as he joins Hogan and Ric Flair as the only wrestlers to win both the WCW and WWF World Championships. Hogan insists he was not eliminated as Savage says he'll look at the footage later. Hogan says he and Savage are cool right now.

WCW World War 3 Preview
Taped Fist Match: Big Bubba Rogers vs. "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan
These two former WWF heavyweights have been feuding with one another after both have hit each other with taped fists. The way to win this match is to knock your opponent out and keep him down for the count of 10.
Cutie Suzuki & Mayumi Ozaki vs. Bull Nakano & Akira Hokuto (w/ Sunny Oono)
WCW World Television Championship match - WCW TV Champion Johnny B. Badd vs. Diamond Dallas Page (w/ Diamond Doll)
If Johnny B. Badd wins this match, he will get the services of the Diamond Doll, who appears to be on Badd's side lately. This continues a feud after Badd beat Diamond Dallas Page to win the WCW TV Title back at Halloween Havoc.
WCW United States Heavyweight Championship match - WCW US Champion Kensuke Sasaki (w/ Sonny Oono) vs. Chris Benoit
Kensuke Sasaki won the U.S. Title from Sting a couple of weeks ago over in Japan in the WCW/New Japan Pro Wrestling show.
Randy Savage vs. Lex Luger (w/ Jimmy Hart)
This feud started back when Lex Luger came back to WCW on the first episode of Monday Nitro as Randy Savage did not like or trust Luger. Savage lost to Luger on an episode of Nitro and again at Halloween Havoc. Later that night, Luger attacked and turned on both Savage and Hulk Hogan and aligned himself with Jimmy Hart, who also turned on Hogan that night, and The Dungeon of Doom. A couple of weeks ago on Nitro, Luger attacked Savage and injured his arm.
Sting vs. Ric Flair
The feud between these longtime rivals restarted back before Halloween Havoc when Ric Flair tricked Sting into teaming with him at Halloween Havoc to take on Arn Anderson and Brian Pillman. Flair pretended to be attacked by Arn and Pillman before the match and came out wearing bandages while Sting faced the two of them by himself. Flair showed it was a trick as he along with Arn and Pillman attacked Sting and reformed the Four Horsemen. Sting took on Flair on the November 6 edition of Nitro and Sting won when he made Flair submit to the Scorpion Death Lock. Sting refused to let go of the hold for several minutes until Lex Luger came out and told Sting something that made Sting let go of the hold.
For the Vacant WCW World Heavyweight Championship: 60-Man, Three-Ring Battle Royal
The inaugural 60-man, 3-ring battle royal will be for the vacant WCW World Heavyweight Championship. The title was held up after the screwy and controversial finish between Hulk Hogan and The Giant at Halloween Havoc, ending Hogan's record 15-month long reign as WCW World Champion.

Sting Takes on Hulk Hogan as Nitro Wins Rating War; Fans Boo Hogan; Survivor Series Worst Drawing Event in the History of the PPV; Shawn Michaels Collapsed; Mr. Perfect Returns; Diesel Heel Turn; Vince McMahon Announces the WWF Will Be Geared More Towards Adults and Will Increase Pay on Off Weeks for Wrestlers
November 20's Monday Nitro won the ratings war, but not the numbers WCW was hoping for, led by the long-awaited main event of Hulk Hogan vs. Sting. Hogan was routinely booed loudly by the fans during the match. Could a Hogan heel turn be on the way? With Hogan in charge that's doubtful.
WWF's 1995 Survivor Series only drew a 0.57 buy rate, making it the worst drawing Survivor Series in the event's history. Diesel turned on Bret Hart after losing the WWF Championship to him as Diesel gave him three Powerbombs after the match as Diesel is turning heel. Mr. Perfect returned to the WWF at the event, joining Vince McMahon and Jim Ross at the announce table.
McMahon announced at a meeting shortly before Survivor Series that the WWF storylines will be geared more towards adults. McMahon also announced he will give his wrestlers $400 a week base salary in their off weeks to kind of compensate for the house show cut backs.
Shawn Michaels did the concussion storyline from the attack outside a bar in Syracuse. He collapsed in the middle of the ring during his match with Owen Hart after he was kicked in the back of the head by Hart. Michaels was taken out of the arena on a stretcher and they will be playing this up through the rest of 1995 going into 1996.
WCW and the WWF have had their tag team championships change hands. WCW has Sting and Lex Luger defeat The Harlem Heat and the WWF has Sid and The 1-2-3 Kid defeat The Smoking Gunns. Sherri Martel is looking to leave WCW.
Dean Douglas will take on Ahmed Johnson at December's In Your House and will likely leave the company afterwards.
WWF's 1995 Survivor Series only drew a 0.57 buy rate, making it the worst drawing Survivor Series in the event's history. Diesel turned on Bret Hart after losing the WWF Championship to him as Diesel gave him three Powerbombs after the match as Diesel is turning heel. Mr. Perfect returned to the WWF at the event, joining Vince McMahon and Jim Ross at the announce table.
McMahon announced at a meeting shortly before Survivor Series that the WWF storylines will be geared more towards adults. McMahon also announced he will give his wrestlers $400 a week base salary in their off weeks to kind of compensate for the house show cut backs.
Shawn Michaels did the concussion storyline from the attack outside a bar in Syracuse. He collapsed in the middle of the ring during his match with Owen Hart after he was kicked in the back of the head by Hart. Michaels was taken out of the arena on a stretcher and they will be playing this up through the rest of 1995 going into 1996.
WCW and the WWF have had their tag team championships change hands. WCW has Sting and Lex Luger defeat The Harlem Heat and the WWF has Sid and The 1-2-3 Kid defeat The Smoking Gunns. Sherri Martel is looking to leave WCW.
Dean Douglas will take on Ahmed Johnson at December's In Your House and will likely leave the company afterwards.

WCW Monday Nitro: November 20, 1995
We are live from Macon, GA as we are six days away from the World War 3 PPV. Tonight is the much hyped main event between Hulk Hogan and Sting. Our hosts are Eric Bischoff, Bobby Heenan, and Steve McMichael.
The first match is the lame Scott Norton and Shark as the two fight in the aisle way coming to the ring. Shark misses a corner avalanche and Norton picked him up and slammed him for the win.
Gene Okerlund interviews Kevin Sullivan and Jimmy Hart. Hart says Sting should be jealous of Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage's friendship and wants Sting to beat Hogan. Sullivan then talks about the World War 3 battle royal and says he can't wait for Hogan to get in the ring with all the members of The Dungeon of Doom for the first time.
Next up is Eddie Guerrero vs. Ric Flair as Disco Inferno is dancing as Guerrero about to enter as Guerrero chased him away. Flair comes out but in street clothes as he has Horsemen member Brian Pillman take his place.
Guerrero gives Pillman a Brainbuster and was about to give him the Five Star Frog Splash. Pillman falls into the ropes and crotches Guerrero. He tries to give Pillman a Superplex, but Guerrero throws him off and gives him the Frog Splash for the 1-2-3 and the win.
A WCW Saturday Night promo is run and now we are shown highlights of last week of Lex Luger and Shark attacking Randy Savage and further injuring his arm.
Next up is Road Warrior Hawk vs. Big Bubba Rogers. Rogers tapes up his fist and runs into the ropes to try and hit Hawk, but he is tripped up by "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan and Rogers lands face first on his taped fist, knocking him out. Hawk pins him for the win.
It's time for the main event between Sting and Hulk Hogan that should be on a PPV and not on cable TV. Sting comes out first as he is wearing red-and-yellow to probably stick it to Hulk. Hulk's music plays but only Randy Savage comes out wearing a sling but no Hogan.
All of a sudden, Hogan, still wearing all black, comes through the crowd and enters the ring as Sting doesn't see him as he is still distracted by Savage. All of a sudden, Sting turns around to see Hogan standing in the ring and the two stare down each other. The crowd, and even Bobby Heenan, are for Sting over Hogan as the crowd boos Hogan.
Hogan shoves Sting only for Sting to beat on him. Hogan reverses an Irish Whip into the corner and gives Sting a corner clothesline and then beats on him in the corner. Hogan then misses a clothesline and gives him two drop kicks sending Hogan to the floor.
The two trade moves as Sting works on his leg. Hogan actually does wrestling moves on Sting. Sting gets Hogan into a corner and is about to hit him with the Stinger Splash, only for Hogan to catch him in a bearhug. Hogan then gives Sting a back suplex and then a vertical suplex.
Sting gives Hogan a couple of drop kicks on Hogan's leg and sets him up for the Scorpion Death Lock, but Hogan powers out of it. Hogan begins to "Hulk up!" and no sells Sting's punches. He points at Sting and gives him three punches and the big boot and goes for the leg drop.
However, Sting moves out of the way and Hogan crashes to the mat. Sting then puts Hogan in the Scorpion Death Lock as Hogan is screaming "He is going to break my leg! Help me!" The Dungeon of Doom run and attack both Sting and Hogan as the match ends in a no decision. Sting and Hogan then fight back and clear the ring.
The Giant comes into the ring and is about to give Sting and Hogan a double Chokeslam, but Randy Savage runs into the ring and hits the Giant with a steel chair. The Giant no-sells it and gives Savage a Chokeslam. Sting and Hogan grab the chair and clothesline The Giant over the top rope and to the floor. The Giant is trying to get back into the ring as Hogan and Sting are celebrating in the ring.
Eric Bischoff hypes up World War 3 as Kevin Sullivan and Jimmy Hart are at the announcers' table yelling at Bischoff.

WWF Monday Night Raw: November 20, 1995
One night after Survivor Series, we are shown still photos of Bret "The Hitman" Hart defeating Diesel to win the WWF World Heavyweight Championship. Our hosts are Vince McMahon and Jerry "The King" Lawler.
They take us back to last week on RAW where the 1-2-3 Kid turned on his buddy Razor Ramon and joined Million Dollar Man's Million Dollar Corporation. We are shown more stills of the Kid and Sycho Sid successful in their elimination matches last night.
The Kid takes on Hakushi in a rematch from SummerSlam. Razor is not there tonight but is on the phone saying he will get revenge on the Kid. Marty Jannetty comes out as he was upset over what happened last night but is held back by the refs. Kid wins following interference from DiBiase as Kid hits Hakushi with the Spinning Heel Kick for the win.
After the match, DiBiase gives Kid some cash. Lawler interviews both Kid and DiBiase as both Lawler and DiBiase say they are proud of the Kid. Jannetty comes back out, only to be stopped by Sid, who gives Jannetty a Powerbomb on the floor.
Dok Hendrix brings us the In Your House report as the next In Your House will come to you live on PPV on December 17 from Hershey, PA. Bret Hart will defend the WWF Championship against his brother-in-law The British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith. There will be an Arkansas Hog Pen match between Henry Godwinn and Hunter Hearst Helmsley.
They show backstage with Diesel talking to his buddy Shawn Michaels. I thought Diesel was a heel? I wonder if this is another Lex Luger-Sting situation where the two best friends work together despite one being a heel and the other a babyface?
Next Savio Vega will take on Skip. However, Diesel comes out and the match will not happen. Diesel has a lot to say about last night. He thought about apologizing to Bret Hart and the fans, but he won't be doing that.
He talks about being able to sleep and smile for the first time in over a year as he is no longer a "corporate puppet" since being the champion. Diesel says Big Daddy Cool is back and puts on his black shades and says the only thing that matters to him are family and friends. He finished by saying that if he slaps hands with a fan, they better have a black glove on their hand to tell him who's side they are on.
It's time for the main event as Shawn Michaels faces Owen Hart. This was a classic back-and-forth match between two excellent in-ring technicians. Michaels wants to his Hart with Sweet Chin Music, but Hart won't turn around as Michaels grabs Hart's leg to turn him around.
However, Hart nails Michaels with the enziguri kick to the back of his head. Hart tries to put Michaels in the Sharpshooter, but Michaels pokes him in the eyes. Michaels then backflips out of a back suplex and goes for a rollup, but Hart holds onto the ropes. Then Michaels would clothesline Hart out of the ring and Michaels skins the cat back into the ring.
Michaels starts to pose and celebrate when all of a sudden, Michaels holds his head and collapses in the middle of the ring. This looks like it could be an act, but it kind of looks real as everyone, including Hart, stop and check on Michaels. Vince McMahon goes into the ring to check on Michaels as Michaels would be loaded onto a stretcher and carried out of the ring.
Next week on Raw, The Undertaker takes on Kama and Brother Love returns to interview the new WWF Champion Bret "The Hitman" Hart.

WWF Survivor Series
We are live from Washington D.C. for the Survivor Series. Your hosts are Vince McMahon, Jim Ross, and the returning Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig.
The first match is the 4-on-4 Survivor Series match featuring Marty Jannetty, Hakushi, Avatar, and Barry Horowitz vs. Skip, Tom Pritchard, Rad Radford, and Jean Pierre Lafitte. Lafitte was not in the match, however, as the newly turned heed 1-2-3 Kid, with his new manager Ted DiBiase, replacing Lafitte. Razor Ramon wants a piece of The Kid as he tries to go after him, but officials hold him back and escort him to the back.
Bob Holly replaced Avatar in this match as well. Jannetty was the only one of his team left to face Skip and Kid. Jannetty gives Skip the Rocker Dropper and climbed to the top rope to give him the flying fist drop. However, Sunny shakes the ropes, causing Jannetty to fall on his crotch. Skip tries to Superplex him, but Jannetty counters into a Powerbomb off the top rope for the 1-2-3 and the elimination.
It was just Jannetty and Kid left. Out comes Sycho Sid, who is now Kid's partner in the Million Dollar Corporation as he will help Kid win. Jannetty delivers the Rocker Dropper on Kid for the 1-2-oh wait, Kid's foot was on the ropes. Ted DiBiase distracts the referee. Sid drops Jannetty's throat onto the top rope as Kid pins him for the 1-2-3 to become the sole survivor for his team. Razor Ramon went ballistic backstage.
Next is the 4-on-4 Survivor Series Elimination match featuring the women with Alundra Blayze, Bertha Faye, and six other women from Japan. This match does not last long as the monster Japanese "lady" Aja Kong dominates and eliminates Blayze to be the sole survivor for her team.
Since we are in the nation's capital, it's time to see the President as "Bill Clinton" is sitting in the arena. He is interviewed and says he's a huge fan of Bam Bam since he was little and playing with Pebbles. Bigelow's pyro goes off as Clinton's "secret service" guys swarm to protect the "president."
Bigelow is up to take Goldust as Goldust creeps and freaks Bigelow out with his queer tactics. Gold-Dustin Rhodes does Dustin Rhodes moves as he would even finish Bigelow off with his running bulldog he used in WCW for the win.
Next we see Mr. Backlund sitting with the "president" babbling on about God knows what. Clinton says he would like Backlund to run against him for president in next year's election.
Next we have Jerry Lawler, Hunter Hearst Helmsley, Dr. Isaac Yankem, and King Mabel taking on Savio Vega, Fatu, Henry O. Godwinn, and the return of The Undertaker. Undertaker comes back after having his face crushed by the fat ass of Mabel. Undertaker is wearing a protective mask that kind of looks like what the Phantom of the Opera wears.
Undertaker dominates in his return as he eliminates Lawler with the Tombstone and does the same to Yankem to eliminate him. Helmsley tries to leave, but is stopped by Godwinn and his slop bucket. Undertaker then gives Helmsley a Chokeslam from the ring apron into the ring for the 1-2-3 and leaving only King Mabel as the lone participant on his team.
Mabel gets a quick jump on The Undertaker hitting him with a belly-to-belly suplex and then gives him the leg drop. However, The Undertaker sits right up as if it didn't phase him. Mabel was scared and he quickly left the ring and got counted out. Sir Mo tries to attack Undertaker from behind, but is quickly Chokeslammed by Undertaker as all four members of 'Taker's team survive.
Coming up is the first ever 4-on-4 Wild Card Elimination match with mixed teams of Razor Ramon, Dean Douglas, Owen Hart, and Yokozuna taking on Shawn Michaels, newcomer Ahmed Johnson, Sycho Sid, and The British Bulldog. I am not sure how I feel but it's different so it could be awesome.
Michaels making his return from the attack he received outside a bar last month in Syracuse opens the match facing Hart. Michaels was about to give Douglas Sweet Chin Music, but Douglas bails. Razor makes sure his teammate Douglas goes back into the ring, where he is rolled up for the 1-2-3 and is eliminated.
Brothers-in-law Bulldog and Hart face off in the ring before they tag in both Michaels and Razor. Razor ends up giving Michaels the Razor's Edge but the pin is broken up by Johnson. Sid tags in and gives Razor a Chokeslam and is about to give him the Powerbomb.
But Sid tags Michaels in instead and holds Razor up so Michaels can give him Sweet Chin Music, but Razor moves out of the way and Michaels hits Sid instead. Michaels just shrugs his shoulders as Razor pins Sid for the elimination. Before Sid was to head to the back, he gave Michaels the Powerbomb.
Johnson would give Hart his finishing move, the double underhook sitdown powerbomb for the elimination. Johnson would give Razor the Spinebuster and celebrates standing on the first rope before being caught from behind by Razor and gives him the Razor's Edge.
Before Johnson hit the mat, Bulldog tags himself in so Johnson could not be eliminated. Sid, The 1-2-3 Kid, and Ted DiBiase all come down to distract Razor as Bulldog gives Razor the running powerslam to eliminate Razor, leaving just Yokozuna to take on Michaels, Johnson, and Bulldog.
Yokozuna tries to give Michaels the Banzai Drop, but he moves out of the way and tags in Johnson. Johnson picks up and bodyslams and splashes Yokozuna and pins him, but his own teammate Bulldog breaks up the pin as he wants to help his own ally in Yokozuna.
Michaels and Johnson clothesline Bulldog out of the ring. Michaels nails Yokozuna with Sweet Chin Music as Johnson covers him for the win as Michaels, Johnson, and Bulldog are the survivors even though Bulldog does not feel like a winner.
We now see Bill Clinton with Sunny sitting on his lap, lucky bastard! He offers her a spot in his cabinet and invites her to the White House to show her the positions.
Now it's time for the main event: the WWF Championship No DQ, No Countout, and No Time Limit match between Diesel and Bret "The Hitman" Hart as there must be a winner. Diesel uses power moves while Hart goes after the big 7-footer's knees. Diesel even uses a steel chair on Hart and tries to go for the Jackknife.
However, Hart goes after Diesel's knee to prevent him from doing it and Hart gets him off his feet. Hart uses the Figure Four Leg Lock and would ultimately go for the Sharpshooter. However, Diesel kicks Hart into the corner with the exposed turnbuckle and Hart goes to the floor.
Hart then trips Diesel up and smashes his knee into the ring post. Hart then ties Diesel's ankle around the post with a cable. Hart uses the chair to hit Diesel in the back and knees with. Hart tries to climb the top rope with the chair in his hand, but Diesel gets to his feet and throws Hart off the top rope.
Diesel manages to free himself from the corner and attacks Hart. He throws Hart chest-first into the corner with the exposed turnbuckle. Diesel gives Hart the Snake Eyes and tries to give him another to the exposed turnbuckle, but Hart moves out of the way and Diesel crashes into the exposed turnbuckle.
Hart then gives Diesel a flying clothesline and then a flying bulldog and then the side Russian legsweep all for two counts. Hart then clotheslines Diesel over the top rope and onto the floor. Hart then tries to dive onto Diesel on the floor, but Diesel moves out of the way and Hart crashes to the floor.
Diesel climbs back into the ring as Hart tries to as he makes it onto the ring apron. However, Diesel then sends Hart crashing all the way through the Spanish announce table as Hart is out of it. Diesel shows compassion as it looks like Hart should not have gone through the table and is seriously hurt more than he should be.
He takes his time and slowly brings Hart into the ring. He wonders should he just pin him or give him the Jackknife to finish him off? Diesel seems to be having second thoughts as he slowly picks up a seemingly out of it Hart. However, Hart tricked him as he rolled him into an inside cradle and gets the three-count for the win to become the WWF Champion, ending Diesel's year-long reign as champion.
Diesel is angry after the match and Jackknifes Hart not once but twice. He would then attack several referees as he yells into the camera "I'm Back!!" as the PPV ends with a Diesel heel turn.
The first match is the 4-on-4 Survivor Series match featuring Marty Jannetty, Hakushi, Avatar, and Barry Horowitz vs. Skip, Tom Pritchard, Rad Radford, and Jean Pierre Lafitte. Lafitte was not in the match, however, as the newly turned heed 1-2-3 Kid, with his new manager Ted DiBiase, replacing Lafitte.

WWF Survivor Series Preview
Four-on-Four Survivor Series Elimination match - Marty Jannetty, Hakushi, Barry Horowitz, and Avatar vs. Skip, Rad Radford, Jean-Pierre Lafitte, and Tom Pritchard (w/Sunny)
Four-on-Four Survivor Series Women's Elimination atch - Alundra Blayze, Kyoko Inoue, Sakie Hasegawa & Chaparita Asari vs. Aja Kong, Tomoko Watanabe, Lioness Asuka & Bertha Faye (w/Harvey Wippleman)
The basic women's elimination match that features a bunch of talented ladies from Japan. Of course the feud centers around WWF Women's Champion Alundra Blayze and Bertha Faye. The feud started on the April 3, 1995 edition of Monday Night Raw when Blayze won the title back from Bull Nakano. The debuting Faye, who looked like she ate Nakano or a bull, made her debut and attacked Blayze after the match and broke her nose, taking her out of action for a while. Blayze lost the Women's title to Faye at SummerSlam until winning it back on the October 23, 1995 edition of RAW.

Goldust vs. Bam Bam Bigelow
This is a match where not much of a rivalry except the awkward running into and Goldust creeping out Bigelow. Goldust making his second PPV after successfully defeating Marty Jannetty at last month's In Your House.

This match circles around two rivalries. The first one is The Undertaker vs. King Mabel. Undertaker had been out of action since breaking his orbital bone during a match with Mabel at a house show and then storyline, he crushed his face when he repeatedly leg dropped Undertaker in his damaged face after a six-man tag team match on an episode of RAW and Undertaker has been out since. The other feud is Henry O. Godwinn against Hunter Hearst Helmsley. The resident blue blood snob Helmsley the last couple of months or so had been disgusted by Godwinn, the resident hog farmer, for the smell of his slop bucket. A couple of weeks ago on RAW, Godwinn was attacked by Helmsley after a match and Helmsley dumped the slop bucket onto an unconscious Godwinn. The last week on RAW, the two were supposed to fight each other, but Godwinn slopped himself and Helmsley ran away and even slipped and fell in the slop trying to run away.

Four-on-Four Survivor Series Wild Card Elimination match - Razor Ramon, Dean Douglas, Owen Hart, and Yokozuna (w/Mr. Fuji) vs. Shawn Michaels, Ahmed Johnson, British Bulldog, and Sycho Sid (w/Jim Cornette and Ted DiBiase)
This will be the first ever "Wild Card" Survivor Series match where heels and babyfaces are randomly paired together. There are some feuds and storylines that will make this match interesting. Shawn Michaels is forced to pair with Sycho Sid as the two had their issues dating back to the night after WrestleMania XI when Michaels basically fired his then-bodyguard Sid after blaming him for his loss to Diesel. An irate Sid attacked Michaels and gave him three powerbombs and put Michaels out of commission for six weeks with a back injury. Razor Ramon is forced to team with Dean Douglas after they have been feuding since Douglas came into the WWF in August. Razor defeated Douglas to win the Intercontinental Championship last month at In Your House after Michaels was forced to vacate the title to Douglas after injuries he suffered from a real life attack outside a bar in Syracuse, NY.

WWF World Heavyweight Championship match (No Disqualification, No Count Out, No Time Limit) - WWF Champion Diesel vs. Bret "The Hitman" Hart
This will be the third time Diesel and Bret Hart will meet for the WWF Championship. Both times, the 1994 King of the Ring and this year's Royal Rumble in January, the matches ended in disqualifications with the title not changing hands. WWF President Gorilla Monsoon decided this match will have no disqualification, no count out, and no time limit and there must be a true winner. Last month at In Your House, Diesel was disqualified in his title defense against The British Bulldog when Hart jumped into the ring and attacked Bulldog after Bulldog slapped him at the announce table. Diesel was upset with Hart and the two had to be separated after the match.
Vince McMahon Meets with The Clique; Feud Between Diesel and Bret Hart More Real That Thought?
Vince McMahon flew the five men of The Clique to meet with him privately at Titan Towers in Stamford, Connecticut. Bret Hart and Diesel seem to have legitimate problems with one another with Diesel saying Hart is stealing his thunder for being a babyface.
Ric Flair and Randy Savage battling shoulder injuries and will eventually need surgery. Both Flair and Savage will likely still wrestle at World War 3 and Savage likely will wrestle through Starrcade before taking three months off for surgery.

WWF Monday Night Raw: November 13, 1995
We are six days away from Survivor Series. In what was supposed to be a main event for the Intercontinental Championship between Razor Ramon and Sycho Sid, WWF President Gorilla Monsoon announces the match will be a non-title match. He believes some problems between special guest referee 1-2-3 Kid and Razor will have the Kid be non-partial during the match and could cause problems for Razor.
They have shown Razor and the Kid arguing this past weekend at house show events and even this past weekend on Superstars where Kid blamed Razor for them failing to defeat the WWF Tag Team Champions The Smokin' Gunns. The Kid was even slopped by Henry Godwinn this weekend and he blamed Razor.
The opening match is Godwinn taking on Hunter Hearst Helmsley as we show last week Helmsley attacking and slopping Godwinn. Helmsley attacks Godwinn before the match. Godwinn finally is about to enter the ring as he carries in the slop bucket.
Instead of slopping Helmsley, he dumps the slop bucket on himself and goes after Helmsley. Helmsley tries to run away, but he is slipping and sliding in the slop all the way to the back as Godwinn is chasing after him.
Dok Hendrix gives us the Survivor Series report. We are shown an interview from this past weekend on Superstars where Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase and Sycho Sid warn Jim Cornette (along with the British Bulldog) to not cross Sid at Survivor Series with Cornette's other wrestlers on the other side.
We are now shown a special rock 'n' roll music video featuring the return of Shawn Michaels to the ring this Sunday.
Ahmed Johnson makes his WWF in-ring debut tonight against jobber Jake Steele. Michaels appears on the split screen and tells us he knew he could trust Ahmed when he slammed Yokozuna two weeks ago. Johnson easily defeats Steele with a Spinebuster and a double underhook sit down powerbomb. Johnson then talks to Vince McMahon after the match and warns Sid and Bulldog not to cross him at Survivor Series.
Next we have Diesel and Bret Hart on the split screen for a very special interview for this weekend's WWF Championship main event. McMahon asks Diesel if he is the one who is the best there is, was, and ever will be. Since he is the champion, Diesel says yes.
McMahon asks Hart what he thought of Diesel being the leader of the New Generation. Hart believes that's not true since he never beat Hart. Hart mentions how he didn't lose the WWF Title cleanly at last year's Survivor Series and felt he never lost the title in the first place.
He mentioned how Diesel did not beat him at Royal Rumble in what was Diesel's toughest match to date and did not receive a rematch for the title since. McMahon points out that Bret did not beat Diesel at the Royal Rumble as well. Diesel said he never heard Hart ask for a rematch and says that his match with Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania was tough as well.
Bret says he has nothing but respect for Diesel being the champion for almost a year now. Bret believes he's the better wrestler and that the big wrestlers tire out quickly. He feels that Diesel is avoiding the technical wrestlers for that exact point which Diesel pointed out that Bret was his first challenger as WWF Champion.
Both Bret and Diesel continue their back-and-forth until the interview comes to an end where McMahon wishes both men luck this Sunday. That was an awesome interview.
McMahon and Jerry Lawler take on each other in a game of Karate Fighters. Lawyer wins as of course he cheats. McMahon scares Lawler with the Undertaker returning at Survivor Series. Undertaker vows revenge on King Mabel. Mabel quickly squashes a jobber.
It's time for the main event as Razor Ramon takes on Sycho Sid with The 1-2-3 Kid as the special guest referee. We are shown highlights from this past weekend on Superstars where Razor and the Kid took on the Smoking Gunns for the WWF Tag Team Championship. Razor kept breaking up pinfalls and got himself and the Kid disqualified and the Kid was not happy with him.
Dean Douglas made his way down to the ring and attacked Razor. Sid and Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase are distracting and talking with the Kid. Razor comes back and has Sid up on his shoulders for the Razor's Edge. However, Kid pulled Sid off Razor's shoulders. Sid kicks Razor and gives him the Powerbomb for the 1-2-3 as Kid gives a really fast count as he screwed Razor.
Luckily for Razor, the match was non-title or else he'd won the title as Gorilla Monsoon was right to worry about the Kid's involvement in this match. DiBiase put a $50 bill in Razor's mouth and the Kid picked it up and put it in his pocket. Kid finally joined DiBiase's Million Dollar Corporation and turned heel.
In the back, Jim Ross is interviewing Camp Cornette and Dean Douglas. Razor interrupts and goes after Douglas. We'll see you next week and at Survivor Series.

WCW Monday Nitro: November 13, 1995
We are "live" from Jacksonville, Fl. Actually, WCW is in Japan for a New Japan Pro Wrestling show so this was taped from last week following the live edition of Nitro. Eric Bischoff, Bobby Heenan, and "Mongo" McMichael talk about how the winner of the World War 3 battle royal will be the new WCW World Heavyweight Champion.
We go to Hulk Hogan dressed in a black cape, black mask, black gloves, carrying a sword, and apparently standing in a grave yard of sorts. He says he wants Randy Savage to bring him the head of Meng tonight. He also says he doesn't trust Sting with his relationship with Lex Luger and challenges Sting to a match next week.
Savage, wearing all black, takes on Meng as he attacks Meng right off the back. Savage throws Meng into Jimmy Hart's megaphone and Savage hit Meng with the Flying Elbow Drop for the 1-2-3. After the match, Lex Luger attacks Savage's bad arm and tried to break it.
Chris Benoit takes on Kensuke Sasaki as Eric Bischoff mentions that Benoit is the newest member of the Four Horsemen. Benoit hits Sasaki with two German Suplexes and then gives him a full Nelson Dragon Suplex for the 1-2-3.
Next, Johnny B. Badd defends the WCW TV Championship against Eddie Guerrero who definitely deserves a title shot, if not the title. It was a pretty entertaining match that ended in a 10-minute draw with Badd retaining the title. Badd and Guerrero shake hands after the match.
Eric Bischoff mentions Hulk Hogan's "dark side" and says Hogan will be on Nitro next week. Hogan wants to take on Sting.
Gene Okerlund has The Giant, Jimmy Hart, and Kevin Sullivan in the ring. Okerlund says he's disappointed in Hart for what he did at Halloween Havoc. A little late there aren't you Gene-o? The Giant says he'll be the champion come World War 3 as Sullivan is laying on the ground mocking Hogan.
Now we go to the main event with Sting defending the United States Heavyweight Championship against Dean Malenko as Sting comes out without the title belt. A good back-and-forth match between the relative newcomer and the Franchise of WCW.
Malenko hits Sting with a German Suplex. Malenko then misses a drop kick attempt. Sting misses a Stinger Splash and is hit with a missile drop kick. Malenko goes for his Texas Cloverleaf finisher, but Sting reverses it into a rollup for the 1-2-3 to retain the U.S. Title.
After a commercial break, Gene Okerlund interviews Sting as Sting responds to Hulk Hogan's challenge. Sting is surprised Hogan challenged him and says he has nothing against Hogan but tells him he forgets Sting is the big dog in WCW.
Sting has taken on all comers and defeated them all and will do the same to Hogan. He accepts Hogan's challenge and will meet him in a main event match next week on Nitro we've all been dying to see for over a year-and-a-half since Hogan came to WCW.

Wrestlers Upset Over House Show Change as Well as "The Clique"; Lex Luger and Sid Not Happy With Their Roles in their Companies; Shawn Michaels' Attack Used in Story; Sabu To Return to ECW; WCW Title Held Up
WWF wrestlers are upset with the doing away of the two separate house shows and putting them into one as many of the wrestlers feel there will be a drop in income earned from house shows and not enough to go around. Vince McMahon schedules meetings with his group as locker room morale was down. The wrestlers are also very upset with "The Clique" - Shawn Michaels, Diesel, Razor Ramon, 1-2-3 Kid, and Hunter Hearst Helmsley, for their influence backstage and their actions in the locker room.
Lex Luger is displeased with WCW for having him turn heel and being passed over for the fourth Horsemen role which went to Chris Benoit. Being disappointed with his role, Luger intentially missed a cue to do a run-in on a live Nitro, causing Eric Bischoff to constantly yell "Here comes Luger" for several minutes. Sid also complains to the WWF about his role in the company.
WCW announced they are holding the World Heavyweight Championship up due to the controversial finish at Halloween Havoc. The title will be up for grabs at the inaugural three-ring, 60-man battle royal at the inaugural World War 3 PPV. Some believe The Giant will be pushed as the world champion and top star of WCW.
Kensuke Sasaki beats Sting to win the United States Championship during the WCW-New Japan Pro Wrestling event in Japan.
Sabu will return to ECW on the November 18 ECW Arena card that features Tommy Dreamer and Terry Funk taking on Raven and Cactus Jack.
The WWF is trying to do more real-life type of stories and will use Shawn Michaels attack in a story. He will have a concussion and suffering from concussion problems from the attack.
Waylon Mercy has quit the WWF and The Warlord and Barbarian are now in WCW as the Masked Super Assasins.

WCW Monday Nitro: November 6, 1995
Today is my 14th birthday!!
This week's edition of WCW Monday Nitro is live from Jacksonville, Fl. and it's an interactive episode where fans can call to pick their main event. You have to pick one wrestler from the Red room and one from the Blue room. It costs 99 cents a call.
In the Red room: Ric Flair, Meng, Diamond Dallas Page, Steven Regal, Bobby Eaton, Shark, and Scott Norton.
In the Blue room: Sting, Jim Duggan, Johnny B. Badd, Nasty Boys, Dave Sullivan, Alex Wright, and Mr. JL.
This is looking a lot like Flair vs. Sting in the main event as I can't imagine anyone voting anyone else or simply the fact WCW just wants more of our money.
For the "WCW World Heavyweight Championship", the "champion" The Giant vs. Cobra. Cobra runs over to Giant, but the Giant grabs Cobra by the neck and Chokeslammed him for the easy 1-2-3 in his first "title defense."
Mean Gene Okerlund is with the heels in the red room and Shark and Scott Norton are fighting. Tony Schiavone is with the faces in the blue room. Sting really wants to fight Ric Flair badly tonight. Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and some weird guy are shown in Venice Beach.
Kevin Sullivan with Jimmy Hart takes on The Renegade. Hart rips on his former wrestler Renegade during the match. Sullivan hits Renegade with a double stomp off the middle rope to win the match. After the match, Hart poured water on Renegade's face and washed the paint off his face. Hart calls him his real name "Rick."
Gene Okerlund is back with the heels in the red room as Shark and Scott Norton are stil fighting. Ric Flair cuts a promo on possibly facing Sting later tonight.
Chris Benoit takes on Eddie Guerrero in what should be a thrilling match. Another thrilling match between the two amazing workers occurred. Benoit hit Guerrero with three different variations of suplexes.
He then suplexed him onto the top rope. Both men fight outside the ring. Benoit tries to suplex Guerrero back into the ring, but Guerrero landed on top of him for the 1-2-3 despite Benoit's feet under the ropes.
Tony Schiavone is in the face locker room talking to Sting. Sting says he's going to leave Ric Flair for dead for what he did. I believe that will be tonight's main event. We will be back with the main event right after this commercial break.
Much to the shock of everyone, Eric Bischoff announces our main event will indeed be Sting vs Flair as Sting will get his hands on Flair. Sting beats on Flair with right-handed punches, clothes lines and gorilla press slams. Sting no sells Flair's chops and vertical suplex attempt.
Flair gives Sting a back suplex and locks him in the Figure Four with Flair using the ropes for leverage. Eventually, Sting reverses the hold. Sting further no sells Flair's attack and gives him a gorilla press slam, a hip toss, and a drop kick.
Flair then gouges Sting's eyes and climbs to the top rope. Sting catches him and throws him off the top rope. Flair hits Sting with brass knuckles, but only gets a two count. Sting again no sells Flair's chops and hits Flair with punches and a third gorilla slam. Sting gives Flair a superplex and locks him into the Scorpion Death Lock. Flair has no choice but to give up as Sting wins.
Sting refuses to let go of the hold after the match as he wants to inflict more pain on Flair. Numerous officials and face wrestlers try to get Sting off of Flair, but he refuses to let go of the hold. Finally, Lex Luger comes to the ring. He whispers something into Sting's ear and Sting finally lets go of the hold. The face Sting and the heel Luger leave the ring together with Luger smirking.
Gene Okerlund is in the ring with Kevin Sullivan, The Giant holding the World Title, and Jimmy Hart holding some papers. Hart says he signed the contract on behalf of Hulk Hogan with the stipulation that if Hogan was disqualified he would lose the title to The Giant. The Giant is now the WCW World Heavyweight Champion.
A WCW attorney comes out to say that after meeting with WCW Commissioner Nick Bockwinkel, the title will be held up. The title will now be awarded to the winner of the inaugural 60-man World War 3 battle royal at the World War 3 PPV. An angry Giant relinquishes the title to the attorney.
Next week on Nitro, Randy Savage takes on Meng. Johnny B. Badd defends the TV Title against Eddie Guerrero. Sting defends the U.S. title against Dean Malenko.
