Backstage, Saquon Shugars tries to get another match out of General Manager Robert Stone, while Shiloh Hill and Tatum Paxley talk about Tatum's casket match. Shiloh says that he has set up The Vanity Project on a date of sorts, then mentions that he has a match with Ricky Saints next week.

Keanu Carver beats Joe Hendry by referee stoppage following multiple forearms to a downed Hendry. (With Hendry heading to Raw next week to perform his first concert on the main roster, this is Hendry's last match in NXT.)

Lexis King beats EK Prosper to win the WWE Speed Championship Tournament and become the WWE Speed Champion after Arianna Grace slaps Prosper, who has to fend off Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo and Uriah Connors on the outside only for Lexis to hit the Coronation back in the ring to win the match and the vacant title.

Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes catch Jackson Drake's date on video for Instagram. Jackson Drake says that the date never showed, and as the three of them talk, Jackson says he will love again.

Backstage, Saquon Shugars meets with the rest of DarkState (Dion Lennox, Cutler James, Osiris Griffin) and says that he got them a rematch.

The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor, "The Smoke Show" Ricky Smokes, Jackson Drake) soon realize that Shiloh Hill set Jackson Drake up, then Myka takes Drake out for tequila shots and lets Baylor and Smokes join them. On the way out, Myka shoves a guy who gets in her way powerfully enough to push him into a wall.

Lola Vice heads to the ring. Lola Vice says she made a statement against Jacy Jayne in her first title defense and showed what kind of champion she is going to be. She says that Jayne not only elevated the women's division, but reinvented herself. Lola then says that the hardest part of being a champion is keeping the title, and that she sees all eyes on her in the locker room. She says that everyone is making it clear that they want her title, and that her competitions are all threats. She then says she likes it, because holding the title means you are a future WrestleMania main event. Lola says she is ready to be "the realest champion," as everyone is wanting to make their mark. Lola then warns anybody who walks into Vice City to challenge her that they will be challenging a fighter and risking getting knocked out and danced on. All of a sudden, Izzi Dame shows up with The Culling (Shawn Spears and Niko Vance). Izzi says Lola is talking like she cleaned out the women's division in one defense, then asks Lola if she is beginning to feel it yet and says that she is watching and waiting for the moment Lola makes a mistake to strike. Izzi says that she will rip Lola apart, and when she becomes the next champion, Lola will thank her instead of cursing her. Lola says Izzi's waiting feels like hesitation, and that she will beat her ass when she is ready. Izzi reminds Lola that The Culling is one step ahead, and when Niko Vance grabs at Lola Vice's AAA Mixed Tag Team Championship, Izzi boots Lola in the face and knocks her out.

Backstage, Sarah Schreiber interviews Birthright (Lexis King, Uriah Connors, Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo, Arianna Grace, Charlie Dempsey). Lexis King says that the WWE Speed Champion is someone who was born to be a champion and that Birthright is not only full of stars, but that they will not stop until they are all champions. EK Prosper shows up and demands a rematch, stating that Lexis King won only because of the rest of Birthright. Dorian Van Dux shows up and also wants a fight, and as Uriah says that they can make that happen, Arianna says Birthright has a championship coronation to attend.

Kendal Grey talks about growing up competing with her older brother, being part of the wrestling team in school, and how she was a magnet for bad luck as a kid as part of this week's NXT Focus.

Backstage, General Manager Robert Stone runs into Tony D'Angelo when D'Angelo receives a box with a Chinese character on it as Stone mentions a potential challenge for the NXT Championship.

Sol Ruca beats Zaria in a Last Woman Standing Match. During the match, Sol Ruca and Zaria fight each other on top of the balcony, and as Zaria is about to fall off the edge and onto two tables, Sol Ruca pulls Zaria away. Sol Ruca and Zaria hug, then Zaria gets angry and shoves Sol Ruca off the edge and through one of the two tables below.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for April 21, 2025

John Cena heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Cena demands ring announcer Mark Nash head to the ring, and stops him at the apron briefly before allowing him in the ring and handing him a card to read from. Mark Nash announces that his announcing has been deemed "disrespectful," and re-announces Cena while reading from the note Cena has given him. He then hands Cena the microphone. Cena says that winners write history and that "you are not worthy," and that he refuses to forgive the audience for bullying him on Friday and cheering him on Sunday. Cena states that this is not how a functioning relationship works and that he can still tell someone who is in a good mood to go straight to Hell, and that the fans do not have the courage to apologize to him. He tells the fans that they have gone, and the fans chant "We aren't sorry." Cena calls the fans "sorry low-lifes" and proclaims that they mean nothing to him, which starts an "asshole" chant. Cena says he may be an anus, but the fans are a group of idiots, and in 25 years, he has taken the worst of their abuse and that tonight's crowd will not be the one to crack him. He says their noise means nothing to him. He proclaims that he had 36 dates until he is done and that this is the only thing that matters, and that the fans have already wasted a quarter of them, and states that he only has to show up; he does not have to wrestle. Cena then dictates that the professional wrestling timeline stops cold when that number hits zero, and when it does, the Undisputed WWE Championship goes home with him, as he will be the last to hold the title. He says winning the title was the hard part and that the rest is a cakewalk, and that he just has to play the fans like a fiddle. Cena says Cody Rhodes was their best shot, but he was "flat out destroyed." Cena tells the fans to take a bold look in the mirror, as there is no one in the WWE with the strength, speed, wisdom or ruthless aggression that he has. He also says he has a heart and would like to do something nice for the fans. He tells everyone to get out their cameras and be sure to get a great picture, as they will want to remember this and because the last real champion is here. All of a sudden, Randy Orton show up behind Cena, and when Cena turns around, he goes "SHIT!" before eating an RKO. Orton then holds up the Undisputed WWE Championship over a downed Cena.

Comedian Gabriel Iglesias, actor Rana Daggubati, the crew from The Pat McAfee Show, and the team of Gigi Dolin and Tatum Paxley are seen in the crowd.

She then teases leaving the ring before attacking Lyra again and hitting her with the Manhandle Slam three times.

The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) head to the ring and demand that everyone get on their knees, raise their hands to the sky and scream "Thank God for The New Day!" Kofi says there is no tag team, alive or dead, who is better than them, and as he and Woods brag about beating The War Raiders, Alpha Academy (Otis, Akira Tozawa, Maxxine Dupri) shows up. Maxxine Dupri and Otis reminds The New Day that the last time they were in the ring, Alpha Academy won in sixty seconds. She then wants The New Day to put the World Tag Team Championships on the line. Woods refuses, and when Maxine asks if "the Minutemen" are scared, Kofi takes this as a challenge and makes the match, with a referee running into the ring. As the match is about to start, however, Rusev - formerly known as Miro in the indies and in All Elite Wrestling following his release from WWE about five years ago - suddenly appears and decimates Otis and Tozawa after The New Day run away before putting Otis in the Accolade (formerly known as Game Over).

Backstage, The Judgment Day (Finn Balor, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, Carltio, Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez) celebrate their new championship bounty and Rey Mysterio missing WrestleMania when Finn confronts Dominik. After Liv says that at least one of them having the Intercontinental Championship, Finn says that "whatever happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." He still looks at the Intercontinental Championship as if he wants it, however.

Iyo Sky heads to the ring. She calls last night the best night of her career and says that she is over the moon after beating the best there is, which makes her the best. She says Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair both tried to forget her, but the fans did not, because she is "The Genius of the Sky" and the Women's World Champion. Suddenly, Stephanie Vaquer shows up and congratulates Iyo Sky, then introduces herself and says she is here to show respect, then states that Iyo is the best and she wants to face the best. Iyo Sky accepts Stephanie Vaquer's challenge for right here, right now, then General Manager Adam Pearce shows up and asks the fans if they want the match. He then says he wants the match and makes it official.

All of a sudden, Rhea Ripley shows up and gives Roxanne a headbutt as she runs away, then has a staredown with Giulia befre Giulia leaves the ring. Rhea hands Iyo the Women's World Championship, then makes it known to Iyo that she is coming for the title again.

"Main Event" Jey Uso heads to the ring. Jey says that he has wanted to be a world champion since he was a kid and that he is here now, and while the road was not easy, he gave his all to beat Gunther and make him tap. He says that he is grateful and happy to have the World Heavyweight title on his shoulder, and he will show up and put the work in like he always has. Sami Zayn shows up and hugs Jey, which leads to "Ucey" and "Sami Uso" chants, and admits that not being here the last eight weeks was hard on him and that he wishes that he had been there, and admits that missing WrestleMania was hard on him and that he almost did not show up in Las Vegas at all, but he had to so he could be the first one to stand across from Jey in the ring and tell him how proud he is of him and how much Jey deserves this. Smai then says that they are here to celebrate, and Jey's music hits again. Jimmy Uso's music hits as Jey and Sami celebrate, and Jimmy Uso joins in on the proceedings.

Suddenly, Karrion Kross and Scarlett show up, and Kross chews Styles out for legitimizing his loss against Logan Paul and not being the person he was a year ago. Styles says he looked in the mirror and hated who he was a year ago and that he is not going back, and says that hitting Logan with brass knuckles would have meant nothing. He tells Kross that if he is going to be angry at the world, then he had better not drag him down with him. He then tells Kross to solve his anger problem himself. Styles leaves, and Kross says "Maybe I will."

An angry Gunther is suddenly at the commentary table, where he takes his anger out on Michael Cole before shoving Pat McAfee and nearly putting Michael Cole in the sleeper hold. As officials led by General Manager Adam Pearce try to put a stop to the brawl, Gunther puts McAfee in the sleeper hold, and Pat McAfee's show crew also have to be held back when they jump out of the crowd. After Gunther lets go of the hold, McAfee is helped to the back.

Backstage, Pat McAfee is helped to the trainer's room. General Manager Adam Pearce asks Michael Cole - who may have a broken nose - to take the rest of the night off. Cole says commentary is supposed to have opinions, then says he will not allow some bully to keep him from doing his job, even after Pearce says that he will deal with how commentary is treated by the locker room. Joe Tessitore replaces Pat McAfee for the rest of the night. Michael Cole comes out to "Daddy Cool"-style chants.

"Dirty" Dominik Mysterio retains the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Penta after JD McDonagh suddenly returns and shoves Penta off the top rope while Carlito distracts the referee.

Heyman then proclaims that there is a new reigning, defending, number one top star in this entire industry: Seth "Freakin'" Rollins. Suddenly, Roman Reigns shows up, and when he gets in the ring, he hits Rollins with a Spear. Roman then hits Heyman with a Superman Punch, but as he prepares to hit Heyman with a Spear, he is taken out from out of nowhere by Bron Breakker in a black hoodie. Rollins almost confronts Breakker, but Breakker hits Punk with a Spear when Punk gets up. It then becomes apparent that Rollins, Breakker and Heyman are in cahoots, especially after Rollins directs traffic and sics Breakker on Roman. Roman smacks Breakker, but Breakker puts him through the barricade with a Spear. Breakker then puts Roman in a choke hold back in the ring as Rollins hits Punk with The Stomp.

Moose also apologizes for exposing Alexander as not being enough of a protector to his wife and not being a role model to his kids, then says he is not sorry for "whupping his ass" at Bound For Glory to become Impact World Champion. He says that Alexander walks around calling himself "The Walking Weapon" when he cannot even protect his family, then says he is not sorry for what he will do to him in Rebellion, as he plans on hurting him and sending him back home for more than a month. Moose then says he knows Alexander is watching, and tells him that he will bend to his knee and ask Moose to show his wife and kids what a real man looks like. Alexander shows up and takes out security, then Scott D'Amore stands in Alexander's way briefly before letting him head to the ring. Moose and Alexander stare down before brawling, and Moose uses R.D. Evans as a shield. Moose lays out Alexander, and when Moose tries to put him through a table, Alexander fights back and puts Moose through the table with the C4 Spike.

He says that The Inner Circle saw the color of The Pinnacle's blood, and soon they will see the size of their heart. Jericho then says that The Pinnacle have no conviction and that he cannot feel what MJF is saying, saying he sounds like he is singing show tunes. Jericho then mockingly sings about MJF and brags about giving him a swirly in the toilet, and says he washed his ass with the silk scarf before Tully Blanchard gave it to him.

Here's all the backstage segments!

The Shield's Final Chapter - The Results

The show starts with a video package chronicling the history of The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns).

Elias is in the ring. After playing his guitar, he says he is happy that tonight is The Shield's (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) final chapter, as he will never have to see all three of them in the ring ever again and Dean Ambrose had the foresight to see that The Shield had no future in WWE. He wishes that Seth Rollins had the same sense, but he will continue to run Raw into the ground, and says that Roman Reigns will get what is coming to him on SmackDown. After telling Corey Graves to shut his mouth, Elias bashes the live Moline, Iowa crowd through song. After a few bars, Elias is interrupted by Finn Balor. After Finn makes his entrance, Elias demands that Finn's music be cut so that Finn can explain himself. Finn says he is one of Elias' biggest fans and wants to walk with Elias, and Elias offers him the opportunity to sing with him. Elias tries to get the fans to say they love him, but Finn Balor uses the song as an opportunity to turn the crowd against him. Elias gets a cheap shot, and the match is underway.

Finn Balor retains the WWE Intercontinental Championship against Elias with a La Magistral Cradle after Elias barely kicks out of a Sunset Flip roll-up. After the match, Elias gets back on his stool and says that both Finn Balor and the fans got lucky, and says he will finish the song he started. Unfortunately for him, he is interrupted immediately by The Riott Squad (Ruby Riott, Liv Morgan, Sarah Logan). The Riott Squad say that they admire Elias and ask him to play his music while they sing along. After offering to be "The Elias Squad," Elias likes the sound of that and believe they won't turn on him like Finn Balor did earlier. Unfortunately for Elias, The Riott Squad make the song about themselves, and nobody - not even Elias - likes their singing voices.

Bayley and Ember Moon beat The Riott Squad (Ruby Riott and Sarah Logan) after Ember Moon hits the Eclipse on a distracted Ruby Riott after Liv Morgan is ejected from the match for keeping Ruby Riott's feet on the middle rope during a pinfall attempt.

Backstage, The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) talk about how they walked into WWE to create a legacy with their own brand of justice only to change the culture on their own terms. Tonight, they go out on their own terms in their own way.

We see footage from before the event went on the air of Drew McIntyre, Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley attacking The Lucha House Party (Kalisto and Lince Dorado) and The Singh Brothers (Samir and Sunil Singh) during a tag team match. After the attack, Corbin calls it a preview of what the three of them will do to The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) later tonight.

Before the next match, ring announcer Mike Rome re-introduces Baron Corbin with a list of his pre-WWE and WWE accolades and achievements. Afterwards, Corbin praises the re-introduction before proclaiming that The Shield's (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) final match will not have a storybook ending when they get the exact same privilege of losing to him as Kurt Angle did. Lashley says The Shield will not be riding into the sunset, and that they will be lucky to be allowed to limp out of the ring with an ounce of dignity following the beatdown they will give them. McIntyre tells the fans to show some respect and get their cameras ready, as they will bear witness to them writing history and becoming the new dominant force in WWE.

In what is advertised as their last match in WWE, The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) beat Drew McIntyre, Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley following a three-man powerbomb to Lashley. After the match, the crowd chants "Thank you, Ambrose," and "Please don't go," then Rollins mentions that the hometown crowd knows him and his story as the culmination of the last fifteen years of his life. He thanks the fans and his friends and family for the support, and says that the WWE Universal Championship would not have been possible without The Shield's brotherhood. Seth says that he will always love The Shield, and that the Universal title win is for them. The crowd chants "Thank you, Shield," then Dean says it is no secret that Seth Rollins grew up in the area and that if you work until you get to the finish line, you can do whatever you want in life and that Seth is proof of that. The crowd chants "Thank you, Ambrose" one more time as The Shield goes for the traditional Shield fist bump.

It's time for Miz TV. Tonight's guest is "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles. When The Miz asks if AJ Styles commanded Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson to attack Roman Reigns, he says no. Miz says that the "no" answer gave Gallows and Anderson permission to beat up Roman, but Styles says he doesn't need help to beat Roman Reigns at Payback. Miz still keeps insisting that Styles ordered an attack on Roman somehow and that his "no" answer is still an admission of guilt, and Maryse eggs him on to the point that the two of them make out.

Extreme Nation - ECW on TNN recap for April 21, 2000

We hear from The Sinister Minister, who says that in Dante's The Divine Comedy, the ninth circle of Hell is reserved for the lowest of the low, those who have betrayed their benefactors, and the treacherous. He says that this place is where one is supposed to go to find the former ECW World Heavyweight Champion Mike Awesome. Mikey Whipwreck pops out of a garbage can and says he is a former ECW World Heavyweight Champion, but The Sinister Minister tells him to shut up and shoves his back, toppling even more garbage cans in the process, and tells him to go start a fire. Whipwreck starts repeating the word "fire" before running out of the room laughing. The Sinister Minister says that in last week's episode, a WCW-contracted wrestler lost the ECW World Heavyweight Championship to a WWF-contracted wrestler after interference by an ECW-contracted wrestler in an ECW ring. He says that this is extreme, then says that the wrestling pundits will want the viewers to believe that the events in the past week will pale in comparison to Cyberslam. In order for for that to happen, however, Cyberslam has to be to annual pay-per-view events what sexual homicide is to a good night kiss. He then says "I love you all...especially your souls," before laughing maniacally.

As Mikey Whipwreck lights cards on fire at a nearby table, Joey Styles and "The Quintessential Studmuffin" Joel Gertner are about to welcome everyone to tonight's show before they notice what Whipwreck is doing. They then get back to welcoming everyone before welcoming The Impact Players (Justin Credible and Lance Storm) and Dawn Marie into the ring. After The Impact Players are told that they are only tag team champs due to Dawn Marie's constant interference and that Jazz has said she will rip Dawn Marie's head off, Dawn Marie says she is not afraid of Jazz or any other woman in the company or any other company, and tells Joey Styles to watch his mouth. Suddenly, Franicine runs into the ring, and is confronted by Justin Credible and his Singapore cane. Raven gets in the ring and holds Francine back, but Justin Credible uses this as an opportunity to start a brawl with Raven. All of a sudden, Mikey Whipwreck joins in on the match as Raven's tag team partner before referee Jim Molineaux shows up to referee the match, get it started and fall victim to an arm drag by Whipwreck, who then hits a tope con hilo to the outside.

The Impact Players (Justin Credible and Lance Storm) beat Raven and Mikey Whipwreck following a catfight between Dawn Marie and Francine which ends with Justin Credible hitting Francine in the stomach with a Singapore cane.

Cyrus is in the ring. He tells C.W. Anderson that nobody came to see him wrestle, and asks if people would rather see The Network or Electra's breasts. Electra, who just so happens to also be in the ring, takes off her jacket, much to the delight of the crowd. Cyrus says this is why he makes the decisions and the fans do not, and tells Elektra she has the night off and find some sex in the streets for a little bit of food money. Elektra yells at Cyrus, but Lou E. Dangerously shows up and tries to calm her down. Cyrus tells Lou E. Dangerously to get her and C.W. Anderson out of the ring, which he does, as he is in the ring on Network business. He talks about the legal side of the match between Mike Awesome and Tazz for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship, then says that he has reviewed the contractual of each and every ECW performer and has learned that there is one person who has been coming to the shows while not under contract. Due to recent events, he can no longer be on television if he is not under contract, and that person is Scotty Anton. He asks what Rob Van Dam has done for everybody, citing what has happened to Sabu as of late, and says that while the people love Rob Van Dam, Rob Van Dam is a selfish man who "bogarts" television time faster than he does a marijuana joint. Suddenly, Scotty Anton shows up, and Cyrus stops him, telling him he is not under contract and in defiance of The Network. Instead of setting the lawyers on him, he will kick his ass in the ring and let the cameras roll. Anton gets in the ring, then Cyrus asks Anton is ready, as he is going to bend over for The Network like he does when he kisses RVD's ass. Anton grabs Cyrus, but he is attacked from behind by Rhino, starting an impromptu match.

Scotty Anton vs. Rhino ends with Rhino Goring referee Mike Kehner through Scotty Anton and a table. After the match, Rob Van Dam shows up with Bill Alfonso and fights Rhino, and ECW security and locker room members have to break up the brawl.

We see footage from during the commercial break where Rhino has to be dragged to the back. It is also announced that Scotty Anton has been taken to the hospital following the previous match.

"The Innovator of Violence" Tommy Dreamer beats Steve Corino in a Texas Bull Rope match that turns into a violent six-man tag battle between Dreamer, The Sandman and New Jack vs. The Network (Corino, Jack Victory, Tajiri). During the match, Jack Victory attacks Tommy Dreamer, but The Sandman soon shows up with a ladder. Corino and Jack Victory then attack The Sandman as he makes his way into the ring, but The Sandman fights back with a Singapore cane and sends both Corino and Jack Victory into the ladder. The match becomes a tag team affair until Tajiri shows up and attacks The Sandman and Dreamer from Tajiri. The match then becomes a three-on-two beatdown until New Jack shows up with a garbage can full of weapons and goes to town on Corino, Jack Victory and Tajiri, at one point pulling out a staple gun and busting open Jack Victory with it. The action then takes place both in the ring and in the crowd, and it all ends in the ring with a top rope steel chair shot from New Jack, who gets the pinfall victory in an impromptu all-out war.After the match, Rhino runs in and beats up Dreamer, New Jack and The Sandman. Suddenly, "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes shows up and hits bionic elbows on The Network as well as Rhino, who eventually gets smacked in the head with a Singapore cane by The Sandman.

Glacier quickly beats Ciclope after the crowd chants "Glacier sucks!" After the match, the masked man from Uncensored shows up (who used to be Adam Bomb in the World Wrestling Federation) and gets in the ring, but it is a set up, as Glacier is attacked from behind by Mortis. James Vandenburg shows up as the masked man, now unmasked, has his way with Glacier as Mortis and Vandenberg take Glacier's mask. Both Mortis and the mystery man then gouge Glacier's eyes, even going so far as sticking one of the spikes in Glacier's helmet into one of them.

It is announced that James J. Dillon has been named Chairman of the WCW Executive Committee by Turner Sports.

Nick Patrick shows up in blue jeans and a sea-green polo shirt with purple trim, still petitioning to get his referee job back in WCW. Nick Patrick apologizes to any WCW employees who were hurt by his actions, but there are a few people that he will not apologize to, now or ever. When he first joined the New World Order, he thought it would be the perfect opportunity for "the little guy" to speak out when they could not, but now it seems to him that the people he wanted to speak out against are the same people the nWo are catering to, like "Macho Man" Randy Savage, whom he knew all about when Savage first came to WCW, saying that Savage has proved him correct recently. He says that the nWo caters to men like Eric Bischoff who are mad with power and letting everyone know he's the boss while forcing people to his will, like Randy Anderson, whom Patrick admits he never wanted to fight. He also refers back to when he fined Savage the biggest fine in WCW, saying that the fine was revoked and that he was told to keep his mouth shut. Patrick then proclaims that if you want someone to stand up for WCW, simply take a look at what he has done: he stayed when people walked out, he still worked when Savage injured his neck, and he took choke slams and Jackknife Power Bombs from The Giant and Kevin Nash, respectively. Patrick says he's still here, and he is a man who stands for what he believes in, and will do so if WCW gives him that opportunity again. "The Living Legend" Larry Zbyszko argues with Patrick, unwilling to trust him.

The Ultimate Dragon retains the WCW World Television Championship against Bobby Eaton with the Dragon Sleeper. Referee Mickie Jay takes a picture of both The Ultimate Dragon and Sonny Onoo at Onoo's behest.

He berates America for "not being able to beat the Japanese," and plans to take back what is rightfully "ours," as he considers himself the only person keeping WCW together at the moment. He then calls the American fans "xenophobic little toads." He tells The Ultimate Dragon he will bend him in too.

Next Monday, Nitro will be live for one hour from 7 PM to 8 PM Eastern due to the NBA Playoffs.

Meng (accompanied by a more conservatively-dressed Jimmy Hart) beats Chris Jericho by submission with a nerve hold. "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Jimmy Hart after the match, and Hart says that he and The Taskmaster will sent a message to "The Crippler" Chris Benoit. The Taskmaster shows upw ith Jacqueline, saying that Meng, despite making a few mistakes in wrestling in the ring, is the baddest apple in the business. He dares anyone to step up, saying that when ten men went into a dojo with Meng, two came out. As for Benoit's message to him concerning karma, he had the same kind of karma at his age, and it was all bad. He says he let his son and Woman go. He then tells Meng that he has to feel the power. Meng is about to do something when Jacqueline tells Meng not to do it. Meng tells Jacqueline - in English - that if it wasn't for her and The Taskmaster, he could take the both of them down. Meng and Hart leave first, followed by The Taskmaster and Jacqueline.

We see a video package of "The Crippler" Chris Benoit.

This Saturday on WCW Saturday Night: Public Enemy (Johnny Grunge and "Flyboy" Rocco Rock)! The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner)! Lex Luger! Mortis and James Vandenberg!

Before the next match, Hugh Morrus and Konnan of the Dungeon of Doom fight The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) before they can make their way to the ring. Security have to get The Steiners out of the area. Long-time friends and family welcome Scott at the entrance ramp.

Public Enemy (Johnny Grunge and "Flyboy" Rocco Rock) vs. The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) ends with Hugh Morrus and Konnan of the Dungeon of Doom. Both teams in the match end up teaming together against Konnan and Morrus as they take the brawl to the back.

Pyrotechnics signal the start of the second hour.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews James J. Dillon. Dillon says that today has been a very busy day, and that all aspects of the company will be re-evaluated. Regarding Nick Patrick's petition for reinstatement into WCW, it is being taken under advisement. He then says that his lawyers have looked into the contract of Eric Bischoff, and that there is both good news and bad news. The good news is that Eric Bischoff has absolutely no authority with World Championship Wrestling. The bad news is that Eric Bischoff has an iron-clad contract and that there is no buy-out clause, and unless he breaches his contract, it is valid. As Dillon announces that Bischoff will retain his title as Executive Vice President and continue to get a paycheck, Bischoff shows up. Dillon says that he has looked further into the New World Order, and that some of the contracts Bischoff finalized before his suspension are all valid, and that the nWo, by and large, is here to stay, with two exceptions. Big Bubba and Michael Wallstreet, unlike Buff Bagwell and Scott Norton, did not have "windows of opportunity" to join the nWo and simply jumped ship, and are therefore under contract to WCW and must return there. Eric Bischoff takes the microphone and simply tells Dillon "Bite me." Bischoff says Dillon wanted to fire him, but he couldn't. Dillon tells Bischoff that if he has something to say, say it. Bischoff tells Dillon he can't stop him from doing whatever he wants with the nWo, and that he made WCW the #1 wrestling company on the planet. When he asks if Dillon has a problem with him making the nWo bigger than WCW, Dillon says yes, and Bischoff tells him "Bite me" again. Bischoff then asks Dillon if he thinks that he can fill his shoes, Dillon says he is the first person to admit that he is the most powerful and influential person for the last two years and has accomplished a lot, considering that the standard of excellence was set up in Stamford, Connecticut (a reference to WWF). However, Bischoff has forgotten that his effort was that of a team, and that he betrayed the trust of the team. Bischoff says "Bite me" yet again. Dillon says that Bischoff has tried to single-handedly destroy the legacy of WCW as he leaves, and if Bischoff thinks he can fill his shoes, he's wrong, because what is in Bischoff's shoes stinks, and no Odor Eaters in the world can take that smell away. Dillon then states that he has two shoes of his own, that he is man enough to determine what steps they take and that he will take accountability for those steps, unlike Bischoff.

Jeff Jarrett beats Scotty Riggs with the Figure Four Leg Lock. During the match, Reggie White of the Green Bay Packers is seen in the crowd again, and when Steve "Mongo" McMichael walks down the entrance ramp with the steel Halliburton briefcase, Reggie jumps the barricade and snatches it from him, forcing Mongo to retreat.

James J. Dillon shows up during Syxx vs. Rey Mysterio Jr. after Kevin Nash hits Rey with a big boot to the back of the head followed by a Jackknife Power Bomb. He brings out medical help for Rey and sends security officers to keep Syxx from attacking Rey, who has to be taken out of the arena on a stretcher. Dillon tells Nash and Syxx that their behavior will no longer be tolerated, but Nash and Syxx don't care.

We see a video package of Lex Luger.

Lee Marshall calls form Norfolk, Virginia - the site of next week's Nitro - for the 1-800-COLLECT Road Report.

In another announcement paid for by the New World Order, we see "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan on the set of McCinsey's Island starting Hogan, Robert Vaughn and Grace Jones. Hulk announces that Grace Jones is a supporter of the New World Order. He says the WCW is full of cowards, saying Sting is hiding, Lex Luger doesn't want a part of him, and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper doesn't want a part of him either. He says that the movie is nWo-produced and directed. Robert Vaughn is seen wearing an nWo T-shirt, as well as the crew.

The New World Order show up. Syxx says that "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper were around last week, talking about how the new generation guys don't have any respect. Syxx says he knows a bit about the history of this sport, and asks what kind of respect it is for Flair to rip off Buddy Roger's gimmick, nickname and finisher from him. He says he has no respect for Piper either, and that he isn't afraid of either of them. Kevin Nash tells Piper that he doesn't think too much about Piper and Flair's "laying down the asphalt and cutting down trees," and that when he came into the business, there was nothing but potholes in the road, saying Flair and Piper strip-mined the business and left nothing for the young guys. He says that WCW was nothing but a bunch of guys pushing their sons, and if you didn't have a dad in the business, you couldn't even get an opportunity. He says Scott Hall was here for a year, proved himself, and got a pay cut, so he left for New York and Nash followed suit. There, he and Hall found punishment trying to dig the business out of the funk the older guys left it in. Where he comes from - the south side of Detroit - you have to beat respect out of him. He says it's the new generation's turn to shine, and while the older guys in WCW live it up, the nWo says they have no problem flying commercial and going to the arena three in a rented Ford Taurus while trying to patch the potholes that the older guys left behind.

Diamond Dallas Page quickly beats Psychosis with a Diamond Cutter from the top rope. "Macho Man" Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth are sighted in the crowd after the match, and Savage asks Page if he can feel the madness all around him, and that if he can't, ask Kimberly, because she felt it. Page tells Savage he isn't going to bait him again, and that if he wants a piece of him, then he and Elizabeth should hobble into the ring right now. Savage wants to go, but he is surrounded by security.

"Rowdy" Roddy Piper shows up with "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and Carolina Panthers player Kevin Greene. Flair says there's nothing to talk about, and dares the New World Order to get into the ring and "pave the highway." The New World Order shows up, but then bring out...Scott Hall, who hasn't been seen in weeks. Despite being outnumbered, Flair, Piper and Greene somehow fight The New World Order, holding the members who don't get into the ring off until the closing seconds of the show.
