Flair, "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, the nurse, WCW Vice President Charles Robinson and WCW Executive Committee Chairman J.J. Dillon all make their way to the ring, where they are met by "Mean" Gene Okerlund. Flair says the President is back, and tonight, stuff is going to be straightened out. He wants to know Sting, Goldberg, Diamond Dallas Page, "Macho Man" Randy Savage and Gorgeous George are at so he can talk to them all. He asks for Savage and Gorgeous George to come out to the ring, and says that when Robinson is done with Gorgeous George at Slamboree, the "Lil' Nature Boy" will be "the little man." Flair says Savage is no longer reinstated and that he is fired, and tells Savage to show up with Gorgeous George. He also announces that he will become a 15-time World champion when he kicks DDP's "two-timed ass" tonight, as he has signed and sealed the match. He also says that in Charlotte, North Carolina, he can be as nuts as he wants to be. As far as his match with "Rowdy" Roddy Piper is concerned, he says that Piper is at home in the mountains thanking the Lord that he was temporarily incarcerated, and tells Piper he will be naked and be the President if he wants to be, and head to Piper's home and make love to his wife if he wants to, because he is Ric Flair. When it comes time for another commercial break, Flair threatens to be naked again, and Savage heads to the ring with Madusa, Gorgeous George and Miss Madness.

"Macho Man" Randy Savage shows up with Madusa, Gorgeous George and Miss Madness. WCW President "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair tells Savage that he is fired, as he is back and in control. He then calls for the police, but Savage tells Flair that after Slamboree, Gorgeous George will be all over Charles Robinson. Security shows up to take Savage, Madus and Miss Madness away, but Savage fights security off. Flair grabs Gorgeous George, and security and local law enforcement grab Savage and take him, Miss Madness and Madusa away. Flair tells Okerlund to shut up, then Robinson tells Gorgeous George that he will buy her a pack of gum because a bimbo cannot chew gum and walk at the same time. Gorgeous George punches Robinson in the back of the head, and Flair's nurse friend ends up choking her out. Flair then demands that security remove Gorgeous George from the building. Flair then declares that he will beat Diamond Dallas Page tonight for the World title and defend the title against Kevin Nash on Sunday night. He then calls Sting a punk and says Goldberg could not get him or "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson on his best day. Sting shows up, and Flair keeps telling Sting "you ain't the franchise." Sting punches Flair, who hides behind Anderson before telling Goldberg to get in the ring and telling Sting he is lucky he doesn't kick his ass in the ring tonight. Goldberg shows up and stares down with Sting, then punches Flair. Sting and Goldberg then get in a shoving match before they both brawl. Security gets back in the ring to hold both men back, but they do not fare well at all against Sting and Goldberg, who continue to brawl in the ring until more security come out along with local law enforcement. Both men are held back, but as Sting is taken backstage, he runs back in the ring and gets to Goldberg before a few more seconds before security and local law enforcement manage to keep both men separated again.

DDP says there has nobody come in as a manager, become a color commentator, then became a wrestler and worn the World title like he did, that nobody has recently defended the title like he has, and that nobody has been 2-time World champion faster than him. DDP says he is hitting legendary status, and that around the corner, people will look at him like they do John Elway for football, Wayne Gretzky for hockey or Michael Jordan for basketball. He says the only difference between them and him is that he is in his prime, which brings him to WCW President "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair. He has heard Flair talking about changing the rules and changing the posters, wanting to make it him vs. Kevin Nash for the World title. He understands why Flair is reaching for the brass ring and wanting to be him as he sees a little bit of him and Flair. He then says the only difference himself and Flair is that he is in his prime, then tells Flair that to be the man, you've got to beat the man.
