"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Eddie Guerrero, who says The Taskmaster had no business in Chris Benoit's match.

He promises to give his best in his match against Shinjiro Ootani.

He then interviews Sonny Onoo, who is managing all of the New Japan Pro Wrestling superstars, who is so confident that New Japan will win that that he'll buy WCW and the state of Iowa after New Japan sweeps the series.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Sting, who says that Johnny B. Badd will even the score in the next match.

As for the Triangle Match, he says he's gotta go what he's gotta do.

Before the next match, Sonny Onoo makes misogynist comments about Kimberly the Diamond Doll, saying she should be at home cooking and cleaning and that wrestling is "a man's sport." Kimberly takes the microphone out of Onoo's hand and says this isn't a Japanese bath house and that's she's not a geisha girl, and asks what he is doing here since wrestling is "a man's sport." Onoo tells Johnny B. Badd "Control your woman. We do."

Johnny B. Badd beats Masa Saito by disqualification after Sonny Onoo puts his hands on Johnny B. Badd, sending him over the rope. Masa Saito stares down Kimberly after the match, but JohnnY B. Badd takes him and Onoo down. World Championship Wrestling and New Japan Pro Wrestling are now both tied 2-2.

Lex Luger says the moment of truth has arrived and that he's coming right at "Macho Man" Randy Savage and the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. Jimmy Hart says that he's here for a long time and not a good time, and tells Lex to bring back the gold.

Shinjiro Ootani beats Eddie Guerrero with a surprise roll-up reversal. New Japan Pro Wrestling now leads 3-2.



"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews "Macho Man" Randy Savage. He says the pressure is on him right now, but soon the pressure will be on Sting in the Triangle Match. For now, though, he's more focused on facing Tensan in team play tonight, and right now, he's in the zone.

"Macho Man" Randy Savage beats Tensan, tying World Championship Wrestling and New Japan Pro Wrestling with three wins apiece in the World Cup of Wrestling.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund says there is huge rancor happening somewhere in the wrestling world, and you can hear about it later tonight from Mark Madden on the WCW Hotline. He then interviews "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair. Flair says he has an advantage over Lex Luger and Sting, as both of them have been in competition against New Japan Pro Wrestling earlier tonight and he will be coming out fresh. He plans to win the Triangle Match and take the WCW World Heavyweight Championship from "Macho Man' Randy Savage.

Sting beats Kensuke Sasaki with the Scorpion Death Lock. World Championship Wrestling wins the World Cup of Wrestling 4-3. All the representatives of World Championship Wrestling in this best of seven celebrate along with Sting.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund is in the ring along with Sting, Chris Benoit, Lex Luger, "Das Wunderkind" Alex Wright, Johnny B. Badd and Eddie Guerrero. The six of them celebrate with the World Cup of Wrestling trophy.

Ric Flair beats Sting and Lex Luger in a Triangle Match by count-out and goes on to face "Macho Man" Randy Savage for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship after the ref is accidentally booted in the face with Sting's foot as Luger has him in the Torture Rack. Flair attacks Luger, then tosses him out of the ring along with Sting before he wakes the referee up. Sting and Luger are unable to get back into the ring before the ten count, allowing Flair to win. After the match, Sting looks at Luger with disdain as Luger holds on to his injured knee. Jimmy Hart then shows up, wanting to manage Ric Flair to the World Heavyweight Championship.

Ric Flair beats "Macho Man" Randy Savage to win the WCW World Heavyweight Championship and become world champion for a 12th time after Savage busts Flair's head open with Jimmy Hart's megaphone and the rest of The Four Horsemen ("The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, Flyin' Brian, Chris Benoit) show up to distract and attack Savage as the ref is still trying to deal with Jimmy Hart's distraction tactics. Arn Anderson seals the deal for Flair when he knocks Savage out with brass knuckles. During the match, "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff, still angry at being injured, is seen watching the match from the aisle while wearing a neck brace until Doug Dillinger makes him go back to the dressing room. After the match, Flyin' Brian attacks Savage by smacking him with the World title as he is down before the Horsemen leave.
