Dean Malenko retains the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship against Konnan with the Texas Cloverleaf. During the match, it is announced that Ted DiBiase has demanded on behalf of The New World Order that "Macho Man" Randy Savage receive a shot at the WCW World Television Championship tonight. We all see pre-recorded comments from Syxx, who tells Malenko that he would have been beaten again if it weren't for Eddie Guerrero, and that if he botched stuff like Eddie did, he would act like he doesn't know what he's talking about. It is also announced that "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson was attacked backstage after last week's interview. "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Dean Malenko after the match, and Malenko says it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what's going on, and says that Eddie Guerrero and Syxx are both trying to steal his championship belt. Right now, however, he is focused on "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, who says that there is mutual respect between them and that Benoit is the spitting image of himself. He knows they both want to be on top in this sport, and gives him an opportunity against him for the United States title, and tells him to step up and prove himself.

The Giant talks about how Lex Luger opened a door for him and stood up for him when nobody else did, and tells Harlem Heat (Booker T and Stevie Ray) that they have no idea what to expect when he and Luger walk down the aisle. Luger says that the balance of power is slowly shifting away from nWo and towards WCW. He says that WCW has a trump card in the form of Sting, and at Spring Stampede, it will either be the Torture Rack or the choke slam that awaits "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and "The Crippler" Chris Benoit. Benoit tells The Taskmaster that he has proven once again how cowardly he is, as last week "The Enforcer" ARn Aderson made a mistake in talking about his injuries as he infers that The Taskmaster attacked Anderson in his hotel room later that night. Dean Malenko says he's got respect for him that he does not want to lose, and he wants to know why he got in the ring earlier tonight. Flair has heard "Rowdy" Roddy Piper ask where he and Anderson were, and that later on, Piper proved that he "couldn't hang." Flair says the only difference between now and 20 years ago is that they only go to bed one night a week, as opposed to 20 years ago when they didn't go to sleep at all. Flair tells Piper he owes it to all the youngsters why they are the legacy and why this sport rocks and rolls. He then wants Piper to walk down the aisle and say he's a Horseman instead of saying he wants to go back home, as they all have wives and kids and they stand for WCW day after day.
