- The Masked Psycho continues his assault on Liger after the match. (E+)
- A video recap of the Natural Born Thrillers jumping, attacking and putting KroniK through tables is shown. (C-)
- The Natural Born Thrillers make their way to the ring, they looked pleased. No other tag teams remain in WCW, NBT are the ultimate tag team. They go on to tell everyone how they are the premium Thrilling Tag Team in the world today! (C-)
Match: Mike Awesome v Dustin Rhodes
In a match that had some good action and average heat, Mike Awesome defeated Dustin Rhodes in 7:46 by pinfall with an Awesome Bomb. (D+)
- Eric Bischoff makes his way down to the ring. He's begging Sting to return again. Bischoff says that WCW needs Sting to return, he says Sting must be able to see what's going on, what's going to happen again if Kevin Nash is allowed to influence Don Callis. WCW needs Sting. Eric Bischoff needs Sting. (C)
US Title Match: Chavo Guererro Jr. v Billy Kidman
In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Billy Kidman defeated Chavo Guerrero Jr. in 10:10 by pinfall with a Shooting Star Press. Billy Kidman makes defence number 2 of his WCW United States Heavyweight title. Rey Misterio Jr. did commentary during the match, putting over the US Title and Billy Kidman.(C+)
- DDP & Johnny Swinger are on the entrance ramp with Gene Okerlund. DDP is hyping up his services as a manager again, telling everyone how he's managed to turn Johnny Swinger from a nobody into a somebody! They make their way to the ring.(D+)
- Kanyon makes his entrance and stops next to Gene Okerlund... "AIN'T NOBODY BETTER THAN KANYON!" (D+)
Match: Kanyon v Johnny Swinger
In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Kanyon defeated Johnny Swinger in 8:23 by pinfall. (C-)
- Don Callis, Kevin Nash & Mike Awesome are in the ring as the show returns from an ad break. Nash laughs at Bischoff's attempt to recruit Sting, he says it didn't work last time and it's not going to work this time. Don Callis has already recruited one of the best big men in Modern Wrestling today in Mike Awesome to go alongside one of the best minds in the business... Kevin Nash. More people are coming. The battle is starting soon and the rightful people will be the owners of WCW. (D)
Match: Lex Luger v Scott Steiner
In a bout that had a good crowd and good action, Scott Steiner defeated Lex Luger in 7:57 by pinfall with a Frankensteiner. (C-)
- After the match Scott Steiner remained in the ring. He pointed at Stevie Ray, shouting that he was going to be break his brother's neck. He was going to be the #1 contender. He told Stevie Ray to get out of the seat as he was going to remain at ringside and watch Goldberg's match against Rick Steiner. (B)
Match: Bill Goldberg v Rick Steiner
In an extremely short match, Bill Goldberg defeated Rick Steiner in 5:12 by pinfall with The Spear. During the match we also had Scott Steiner hit Goldberg with a chair, but Goldberg no sold it. (C-)
- After the match Goldberg remained in the ring. He pointed at Scott Steiner - "YOU'RE NEXT!" (B-)
Show End (C)
TV Rating: 0.25 (up from 0.23)
Before the show Booker T arranged a video game tournament... which he won.
Disappointingly Jushin Liger & Yun Yang didn't click very well in the ring, which led to a few blown spots.
The US Title scene has become 'forgotten' over recent weeks, with Kidman not really appearing on TV, and Rey Misterio being included in the #1 Contenders Tournament for the WCW World Heavyweight Title. It returned to TV screens this week with Chavo v Kidman.
DDP's role as Manager is going over well with the crowd.
The Nash, Callis & Awesome segment, while not terrible, didn't go as planned. Nash drifted from script several times, Callis wasn't able to keep up with Nash and generally looked confused.
WCW continues to lose popularity across North America with each TV show.Despite this TV Ratings have been increasing over the last 2 weeks.
- The Final Four are set for the #1 Contender's Tournament:
1. Mike Awesome v Scott Steiner
2. Bill Goldberg v Kanyon
- Who will win?
- Eric Bischoff continues his attempts to encourage Sting to return to WCW. Sting hasn't been seen for a number of weeks now after previously being spotted watching from the rafters.
- Are the Natural Born Thrillers the ultimate tag team?
- The Masked Psycho continues his hunting of Jushin Liger. Who is the Masked Man? What is driving him to attack the superstar from Japan?
