Nitro-Glycerin - Monday Nitro recap for November 1, 1999

Backstage, The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) are confronted by Bret "The Hit Man" Hart, who is now on crutches and calls them the two biggest pieces of scum he has ever seen. Kevin Nash says Bret should be happy that they helped him win the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship, but Bret says this is not how he does business and that he does not need their help to win. He tells them to stay out of his business.

Bret "The Hit Man" Hart shows up. Bret says he did not build his reputation by screwing people, and that he watched the footage of last week's match and it is obvious to him that Goldberg got screwed. He says there is a lot of scum running around in the back, such as The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) and Sid Vicious, and tells them that as far as he is concerned, Goldberg is the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship and that he does not want to win a title like he did last week. Suddenly, Sid shows up, saying the title does not belong to Goldberg and that it belongs to him, and what Bret does not know is that at Halloween Havoc, the referee stopped the match at his discretion. If Bret thinks for a second that a little blood will make him quit, he is mistaken, and that he has proof that Goldberg said he quit, which he will show off later on. Right now, he wants something that belongs to him, and that it is the United States title. Sid tells Bret "Screw you," to which Sid replies "Screw your crippled ass." He then clotheslines Bret to the mat and takes the boots to him, then The Outsiders show up as Sid is about to powerbomb Bret. The Outsiders stop Sid, hand him the United States title and raise Sid's hand. Sid leaves as Nash and Hall continue to mess with Bret.

A steel cage is situated high above the ring.

Group 3 of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship Tournament is "The Canadian Crippler" Chris Benoit vs. Dean Malenko, Madusa vs. Evan Karagias, Scott Hall vs. Sid Vicious, and "The Cat" Ernest Miller vs. Lash LeRoux. Madusa has been given another chance in the tournament by "the powers that be." Group 4 is Buff Bagwell vs. Stevie Ray, Vampiro vs. Berlyn, Disco Inferno vs. Curt Hennig, and Booker T vs. Jeff Jarrett.

Perry Saturn and Torrie Wilson show up in the building. Torrie runs away to get away from him, Shane Douglas and Dean Malenko, but Asya is nearby, and she grabs her and brings her back.

The WCW Talking Arena is now available!

Vampiro beats Berlyn to continue to the next round of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament. During the match, members of rock group The Misfits show up and lie in wait from ringside, and when Berlyn runs into the referee during an Irish Whip, Berlyn's bodyguard gets involved only for The Misfits to stop him, allowing Vampiro to knock the bodyguard's lights out with a steel chair. Vampiro goes back into the ring and goes for a top rope drop kick, and as Berly ngains momentum in the match, The Misfits trip Berlyn and grab onto his legs, allowing Vampiro the win. After the match, Berlyn starts speaking in English for the first time and says "No more! Screw Berlyn! From now on, screw USA!"

Backstage, The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) discuss Nash not being able to accompany Nash to the ring tonight, and offers to be his promoter to give him a downside guarantee. Hall thinks Nash is high.

Meanwhile, Torrie Wilson is in a cage, thanks to The Revolution (Shane Douglas, Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn), and the shark cage is being carried around by a forklift.

The Revolution (Shane Douglas, Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn) shows up. Shane says that if the fans want a revolution, then they will change the world. He then tells The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey Mysterio Jr., Kidman, Eddie Guerrero) get their knives out of their tires and make it to the building, they will have an offer for them that they cannot refuse. Saturn tells Eddie that he is not done with him yet, and he proposes putting the key to the shark cage on a pole and facing off in a Key on a Pole Match. If Eddie gets the key, Torrie is free; if he gets the key, he gets to scale her. Malenko tells "The Canadian Crippler" Chris Benoit says he has his friendship "right here," and says Benoit has been too soft and nothing but a puss, and tonight, it is his ass that is going to be crippled. Benoit shows up, mentions that The Revoution seems to have developed a cage fetish, and tells them to look up where the steel cage is, and tells Malenko he will be locked up with him. Just like he extended his hand in friendship to him, he will find out what "silent but violent" is all about.

Kevin Nash gets a makeover from a make-up artist.

This week's Mayhem winner is Kyle Hudgins from Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey Mysterio Jr., Kidman, Eddie Guerrero) make it into the building. When an arena security guard asks for passes, they beat him up.

Mike Tenay interviews Kimberly, who is surrounded by The Nitro Girls. Kimberly says that Diamond Dallas Page has suffered a chipped collar bone, a chipped sternum and chipped ribs, and has no idea when he will be able to come back to work. She says that The Nitro Girls are here in this interview because she has had a lot on her mind, and tells them they have had a lot of fun together and that they mean so much to her. However, it is time for her to leave the group, as she has more important business to take care of right now. Kimberly seems distressed as she walks away.

In the Mayhem Match of the Week, "The Ragin' Cajun" Lash LeRoux beats Ernest "The Cat" Miller (who is back early following an ACL injury and now surrounded by beautiful women and is no longer accompanied by Sonny Onoo) by submission to continue to the next round of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament.

Mike Tenay interviews Bret "The Hit Man" Hart. He says The Outsiders and Sid Vicious are the lowest scum on the earth, and that they willing to stoop to any low to get to the top. By the end of the night, someone is going to pay, and he tells Sid he doesn't get mad, he gets even, and he will get even before the night is over.

The Nitro Girls try to stick together, but it becomes evident that there is no clear leader and a tiff begins to form between tjem.

Backstage, The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey Mysterio Jr., Kidman, Eddie Guerrero) are getting footage of Miss Elizabeth in the dressing room with The Total Package. They are talking about the tournament (and it becomes obvious that tha audio is ahead of the video by a few seconds). We then see the production crew at work.

We see "The Living Legend" Larry Zbyszko interview Scott Steiner, who has been out of action for months. Scott Steiner says that a year-and-a-half ago, he hurt his back and came back form it, but he had to have three screws in his shoulder and he had to wear a brace that made him lean to the left, which upset three ruptured discs. Ever since that shoulder surgery, he has been in severe pain. He tried to avoid surgery by any means possible, and had six epidurals which gave him headaches and nerve blocks and never worked as the pain kept coming back. Surgery ended up being his only option left. The doctors told him he should be fine after a dissectomy. Right now, he cannot do anything for the next three weeks and that all he can do is take it easy, try to walk and lie down a lot. After that, he will go to rehab, and eight to ten weeks later, he will see the doctors again and go from there. He hopes to come back to professional wrestling, but he does not feel great right now, and he can only go by what the doctor tells him and hope that he is right.

We see a performance by The Nitro Girls, which quickly turns into a catfight between Spice and AC Jazz.

Mike Tenay interviews Buff Bagwell, who says that he is sick and tired of being burned by the powers that be. He thought his ship had come in, but it is the bottom floor of the TitanTron. He refuses to sink, and as long as the powers that be line them up, he will knock them down.

A disguised Kevin Nash is on a cell phone, pretending to be a promoter.

AC Jazz and Whisper continue their fight backstage in front of the other Nitro Girls.

Before the next math, Stevie Ray - carrying a leather strap - tells Buff Bagwell not to celebrate too early, as the powers that be have informed him he is not the chosen one. He says this is just business, and tonight, they have a strap match. Buff wants to know if this is a surprise from the powers that be, but Stevie Ray says he has to do what he has to do.

Buff Bagwell beats Stevie Ray by disqualification to continue to the next round of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament after "Creative Control" - the two men in the suits - shows up and tries to attack Bagwell.

Mike Tenay interviews Jeff Jarrett. Jarrett tells Tenay not to get slappy with him, as he has the stroke and can have him flipping burgers at Burger King tomorrow morning. As far as Miss Elizabeth is concerned, he did not take her out with his guitar and does not appreciate The Total Package accusing him of hurting her. Tonight, he will get his public apology out of him, one way or another, as he has the corner on the booking market around her. If he does not apologize to him, he will put him on the first Lex Express right out of town.

Kevin Nash shows up in his promoter disguise. He thanks the fans for their warm and kind hospitality. Even though he is a promoter and the most powerful man in sports entertainment today, the fans can rest assured that everything he does, he does for the fans. He says it is true, and that he is a very knowledgeable man, hence why he is called "VKM." (Although he does not say the letters, he does motion the letters with his free hand, with "VKM" very obviously being a reference to WWF Chairman Vince McMahon.) He has single-handedly built sports entertainment, and asks not to be called an asshole, saying the fans are assholes. Unlike "Billionaire Ted," he did not buy his way to the top; instead, he borrowed money and stepped on everybody on his way to the top. Because of stock optons, he is now a billionaire, and he put everyone out of business until he was the only show in town. In any event, he stands in the room with a guarantee that that his cash cow - whom he will push as a babyface until the fans regurgitate him - is the roughest and toughest in WCW and will someday work the main event with Jeff Jarrett. He claims that this person is clean, sober and has more than one catchphrase. That man is Scott Hall. Hall shows up, and Nash nearly loses his wig. He says that he is not following this act, as the party polie in WCW have told him that he is out o fhere after one more strike and he is not going back to WWF. Since the promoter looks so much like Vine McMahon, he asks him who picks his clothes out. He then tells "all the boys up north" that he has their attitude "right here" as he gives a "down there"-style crotch chop.

Backstage, Miss Elizabeth and The Total Package encounter Meng, and The Total Package tells Meng that Jeff Jarrett has said negative things about how he has shattered the "island boy" myth and how it took so long for him to beat Madusa. The Total Package holds up a banana and says that Jarrett is even passing bananas out, and Meng takes it out of his hand and puts as much of it into his mouth as possible.

Mike Tenay interviews Curt Hennig. Hennig says then when he retires, it will be his decision and his decision alone. The powers that be may be trying to get rid of him, but he will save his job and win the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.

Curt Hennig's father, Larry "The Axe" Hennig, is seen in the front row for the next match.

Curt Hennig beats Disco Inferno by count-out to continue to the next round of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. During the match, Larry "The Axe" Hennig gets to punch Disco Inferno in the face. Later on in the match, a young man shows up and tells Disco Inferno that it is time for him to pay on his debts. Disco is counted out, and Hennig wins. (This is not the first appearance of this young man; he originally played the crazed fan of Lenny and Lodi's until their gimmick was dropped due to complaints by GLAAD.)

Mike Tenay interviews The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey Mysterio Jr., Kidman, Eddie Guerrero). Eddie says someone forgot to tell The Revolution (Shane Douglas, Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn) that you do not steal from The Filthy Animals, and that they can take care of this themselves. He is tired of their games, and when he runs rings around Saturn, Torrie is coming back home. Konnan then issues an open challenge against himself and Kidman for the WCW World Tag Team Championships, and says there will be no hiding behind politics or bookers or any sabotage involved if anybody wants to accept the challenge.

Norman Smiley is seen coming out of the locker room in a baseball catcher's vest and mask.

Scott Hall meets with Kevin Nash, who is getting into his "Vince McMahon" ccharacter. Nash then looks into the camera, points at it and says "Get it?"

Norman Smiley beats Meng and The Barbarian in a three-way hardcore match. During the match, Norman Smiley has to be taken out of the math on a stretcher, but he gets a second wind and gets back in the ring right after Meng and The Barbarian are both knocked out off-screen. Norman Smiley pins The Barbarian and gets the win, then does the Big Wiggle on the commentary table.

Jeff Jarrett is seen backstage, telling The Total Package that it is time for his public apology.

"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan is seen in a suit with "Creative Control" behind him. He thanks the man on the other side of the for his time, and talks about what has happened to him in the past year while "Creative Control" laughs, and asks for another opportunity in the company. The man at the other side of the desk (who is Vince Russo) makes it known that he only cares about ratings, and that he will think about it.

The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) talk about Sid Vicious, with Nash saying that if Sid gets screwed, it is because Sid screwed Sd. Nash then winks at the camera and says "Get it?"

The Total Package and Miss Elizabeth talk with Meng, and tell him that Jeff Jarrett has an interview coming up and that he should check it out.

Jeff Jarrett shows up, and tells The Total Package to come out to the ring and publicly apologize to him like a man, as he did not put a finger on Miss Elizabeth and does not appreciate being accused of anything. He says that this is not the WWF, and that "we don't abuse women around here." The Total Package and Miss Elizabeth show up, and The Total Package tells Jarrett that as hard as it is to apologize, he admits that he does not know if Jarrett hit Elizabeth, and says he is sorry. He admits he has heard rumors in the back that it could be somebody else, and Jarrett says he is right as he has the stroke, he is the chosen one and that he does not get physical with women anymore. The Total Package says he is on Jarrett's side, and says he heard it could be Meng. Jarrett does not believe this, saying it took Meng a day-and-a-half to take down Madusa, and as he says what he would do to Madusa if he were in the ring with her, Meng runs out and goes straight for Jarrett. Jarrett tells him "Back up, slapnuts! You big wuss!" as he heads to the back. Luger then makes his way to the ring, as does Miss Elizabeth. Elizabeth calls Meng "a real man who comes to the aid of a woman" and tells The Total Package that he could learn a lesson from this. Elizabeth then sprays mace into Meng's eyes, and The Total Package whacks Meng with a tire iron.

The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey Mysterio Jr., Kidman, Eddie Guerrero) are seen heading towards the ring backstage, as are The Revolution (Shane Douglas, Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn), who has Torrie Wilson with them.

The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) knock on Sid Vicious' dressing room door.

The Total Package talks to Sting about going for the WCW World Tag Team Championships, but Sting is not interested. The Total Package tells Sting he will get his World title back, but they cannot pass the tag team titles up. Sting says he is okay with having the match.

Perry Saturn is seen driving the forklift carrying the shark cage with Torrie Wilson inside to ringside before the next match.

Eddie Guerrero beats Perry Saturn in a Shark Cage Key on a Pole Match after Torrie Wilson choke Perry Saturn from inside the cage and keeps him from moving. After the match, The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey Mysterio Jr., Kidman, Eddie) celebrate.

The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) and Sid Vicious talk backstage. Nash tells Sid that all he has to do is trust him, but Sid, thinking that Nash is Vince McMahon, says that the last time he trusted Vince and Hall years ago, his career has been in the shitter. Nash has to show him that his hair is a wig, then Sid realizes that it is Nash he is telling at and they all have a good laugh.

Mike Tenay interviews The Total Package and Miss Elizabeth. The Total Package takes offense to Mike Tenay saying he is trying to mess with his potential opponents in the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament, says that the tag team titles are all he and Sting are focused on, and that he and Miss Elizabeth are out of here.

Sting and The Total Package beat The Filthy Animals (Konnan and Kidman) by disqualification. Early on in the match, The Total Package blows his knee out, and Sting is on his own. Rey Mysterio Jr. runs out, then The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey, Kidman, Eddie Guerrero) gang up on Sting and hit him with his bat while Miss Elizabeth checks on The Total Package. The Total Package then gets back in the ring afterwards, and Sting pushes him to the mat. The Filthy Animals (Konnan and Kidman) retain the WCW World Tag Team Championships.

The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) and Sid Vicious plan out their match in the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament, with Hall telling Sid to pin him as he has nothing left to prove in the business.

Backstage, an angry Sting looks for The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey Mysterio Jr., Kidman, Eddie Guerrero).

Jeff Jarrett beats Booker T to continue to the next round of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament. "Creative Control" are seen watching from the stage during the match. Near the end, they get in the ring and distract Booker T so that Jarrett can hit Booker T with his guitar to get the win.

We see Mike Tenay interview Goldberg on the set of Slam. Goldberg says it does not take a genius to figure out how pissed off he is, and the intensity in his eyes is nothing compared to the hell he will put The Outsiders (Kevin Nash and Scott Hall) and Sid Vicious through. He cannot tell if Sid is either too brave or too stupid to figure out when to quit, and when he gets him in the ring again, he will make Halloween Havoc look like a PTA meeting and there will be no doctor alive who will be able to sew him back up. There was no suit or wrestler who would ask him what was going on, because they all knew he would rip their heads clean off. He says the one mistake that The Outsiders have made is that they left him laying, but he was still breathing, and he was able to get up and walk out. He says they will live to regret that decision, because as long as he can get up and walk away, they will need eyes in the back of their heads. He has never asked for help in the past, and he is not starting now. He does not care how many people he is facing at once, because at the end of the day, his mission is to get The Outsiders and Sid Vicious out of the business for good.

The Nitro Girls, now split into two different factions of three each, are about to go at it outside of the building when Kevin Nash - dressed as Vince McMahon - shows up and says that as much as he likes a good catfight, it should be saved for the pay-per-view. He then points at the camera and says "Get it?" before laughing again.

Mike Tenay interviews Evan Karagias. Karagias says he is excited to be in the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament, but he has never wrestled a woman before. He means no disrespect to Medusa, but there is something about her and hopes they can be friends, and may the best competitor win.

Mike Tenay interviews Madusa. Madusa says "the powers that be" seem to get a kick out of competing with men, and that she plans to take full advantage of the situation. He says they will learn that they should never underestimate a woman, especially her.

Madusa beats Evan Karagias by seducing him to continue to the next round of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.

As "The Canadian Crippler" Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko head to the ring, David Flair is seen entering the building with a crowbar in his hands.

"The Canadian Crippler" Chris Benoit beats Dean Malenko to continue to the next round of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament. During the match, The Revolution (Shane Douglas and Perry Saturn) and Asya show up, and Saturn climbs up the cage to toss a chain to Malenko. Benoit tosses Malenko into the steel cage wall that Saturn is climbing on and grabs the chain, then wallops Malenko with it. Benoit then climbs to the top of the cage, hits the diving headbutt and pins Malenko. After the match, Perry Saturn climbs to the top of the cage and hits Benoit with a diving elbow, then Shane Douglas and Asya get in the ring. Shane, who has a plastic cast on his left arm, attacks Benoit along with Asya, and Saturn, Shane and Asya then handcuff Benoit's right leg to the bottom rope before cuffing his wrists to the top one. Benoit easily falls victim to the numbers game, but The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Rey Mysterio Jr., Kidman, Eddie Guerrero) run in to fight The Revolution. The Filthy Animals get the upper hand, but David Flair suddenly shows up and hits The Filthy Animals with a crowbar while The Revolution escapes. David Flair is about to attack Benoit, but he frees Benoit from the handcuffs as Sting shows up and attacks Konnan as the latter makes his way to the back.

Backstage, David Flair heads to the parking lot only to get hit by a car. David Flair is out cold, and out of the driver's seat comes Kimberly, who takes the crowbar - which is now lying on the hood of the car - and circles Flair to see if he is conscious. She then lays the crowbar next to David and drives off.

Scott Hall calls for medical help in his dressing room, as Kevin Nash is now flat on his back.

Scott Hall beats Sid Vicious to continue to the next round of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship tournament. At the beginning of the match, Sid pushes Hall down with one finger, but when he goes for the pin, Hall reverses it into an inside cradle. Later on in the match, Hall smacks referee Johnny Boone as Sid gets him up for a choke slam. He is about to powerbomb Hall when Bret "The Hit Man" Hart shows up and smacks one of his crutches into Sid's back. As the referee is getting back up, Bret tries to do the same to Hall, who runs away from Bret and moves to the other side of the ring to pin Sid. After the match, Scott Hall runs away with the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship after flipping Bret off to end the show.

Nitro-Glycerin - Monday Nitro recap for May 17, 1999

A white limousine pulls up outside of the arena. Out of the back seat comes Asya, "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, Diamond Dallas Page and Charles Robinson.

Charles Robinson approaches the office of the WCW President, and he replaces the name plate for "Rowdy" Roddy Piper with that of "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, saying this is as it should be.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, who shows up with Asya, "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson and Charles Robinson. Flair says he is here to make a statement tonight, but before he does, Anderson has words of wisdom for Raven and Perry Saturn. Anderson says he is not nuts and never has been, and says he has always told it like it is and has never made guarantees or promises. He says that The Four Horsemen (Flair, Anderson, "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko) have worked really hard to win three world championships a short time back, and that WCW management tried to squash it. He plans to take the President as his most powerful and make a guarantee that Malenko and Benoit will bring the world tag team titles back where they belong to The Four Horsemen tonight on Nitro. Flair makes it clear that he is the President of WCW, and says Eric Bischoff has no right to walk into a business he is running and making decisions concerning the company because of it. He then tells Ted Turner that if he does not move Bischoff, he is coming "to get Fonda." and Fonda will ride Space Mountain all over the Turner empire. He says to learn to love it, as he is WCW President. He then announces that tonight, for the first time ever, he and Robinson will face "Macho Man" Randy Savage and Gorgeous George in a mixed tag team match, and says Savage and Gorgeous George are going down tonight. Flair then tells Bischoff jumped on a World title match and made a call that will not stand, and announces that tonight, Kevin Nash will defend the WCW World Heavyweight Championship against Diamond Dallas Page, and DDP is here tonight. He asks DDP to come to the ring, as he and his entourage are helping him bring the World title back home. DDP shows up, and says Flair's decision making is why he should be WCW President. He then says everyone knows that he has never cried over a finish, and if he got beat, he got beat. He then says that Flair was right and that he got screwed at the last pay-per-view. He then tells Nash that since he has Bischoff in his pocket, he has decided to bring some of his own boys on. He brings out Bam Bam Bigelow, who shows up in street clothes and tells DDP he has his back. DDP says that he will be a three-time, three-time, three-time champion of the world. Flair says this could be one of the all-time greatest Nitros, as he is the boss.

We hear from Eric Bischoff. He says he meant exactly what he said when he reversed the decision for "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair vs. "Rowdy" Roddy Piper at Slamboree. He says he and everybody worked hard to make WCW #1 in the world and stay there for 88 straight weeks. He admits that wrestling is now a little more competitive than he would like it to be, and that maybe he got a little bit complacent, maybe he wasn't paying as much attention and that maybe he was full of himself, but he has learned from his mistakes and believes that WCW will be #1 again as everyone in the company is committed. He says that he will do everything in his power to make WCW #1 again.

We hear from Eric Bischoff, who says that he did what he felt was right concerning "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper at Slamboree, saying that Piper deserved that match. As for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship match between Kevin Nash and Diamond Dallas Page, anybody who saw that match knows that Nash clearly had DDP beat before "Macho Man" Randy Savage interfered. Once again, he did not consider if he was working in any official capacity, and says he was doing what he thought was right. He also says not to blame Nick Patrick, as he was trying to do the right thing and had the option of making the decision, which is final. He says that Nash deserves the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, and that there should be no doubt in anyone's mind. If anyone high on the corporate ladder does not like, it does not matter, as the referee's decision is final.

We hear from Eric Bischoff again, who says a lot of things are going to change. He says he is looking at how he has conducted business, and says he has made both good and bad decisions. He says the key is to be able to be honest with yourself, realize you've made mistakes and do something about it. He does not expected to be welcomed back with open arms, but there is not much he can do to change that other than to change how he conducts himself and shape the company into what he wants it to be. He says he will do everything in his power, and in case he cannot become WCW President, he will do what he can to contribute to the comapny and help make it #1 again, as he is grateful for all the opportunities given to him in the company, and says he owes a lot to the people who work 10-14 hours a week to make it all possible. He says he will do all he can to contribute. He thanks all the people who gave him another shot, and says he understands if there are people who cannot find it in their hearts to forgive him.

A black limousine shows up, and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and Eric Bischoff enter the building.

It is announced that Bret "The Hit Man" Hart will not appear on a WCW program anytime soon due to how he quit the company. Hart is aware of Kevin Nash's challenge on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno on Friday night, is amused that "Jay Leno and the people with the show are now wrestling promoters", and will be on The Tonight Show Tuesday night to answer Nash's challenge.

Rey Mysterio Jr. retains the WCW Cruiserweight Championship against Evan Karagias.

Charles Robinson, "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko and Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker head to "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair's office. Flair insists that he is still WCW President, and he puts Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker in a match against his son David Flair, and tells him to throw the match as soon as Anderson gives the signal. He also tells him that Charles Robinson will also be the referee for the match. If he does, he will take care of him by giving him an office job. Parker tells Flair he will do what needs to be done. After Parker leaves, Ric Flair calls David and Torrie Wilson out of his office, and he tells David Flair that he will be on the road to the world title and will face Buddy Lee Parker. He tells him how Parker will throw the match and give him the won to advance his career. Torrie tells Ric Flair that he had better keep his promise, and Ric Flair says that he will.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Booker T. Booker T says everybody knows what went down between him and Rick Steiner, but he is not crying over spilled milk and asking for a rematch, as he is calling Rick out. He tells Rick to get his gear on, as he has his on and is feeling a Harlem Hangover tonight. Booker T says he is a man on his own and that Stevie Ray has his own agenda, and all he cares about is getting the WCW Television Championship around his waist one more time as he is a true people's champion. He tells Rick to get in the ring with him, and that it is just business. Booker T says he started at the bottom and worked his way up to seven tag team titles and six television titles, and tells "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and WCW Executive Committee Chairman to do what they have to do to make the match official, and he says he will make it seven reigns with the Television title tonight.

David Flair beats Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker.

Before the next match, "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair says he wants no excuses and wants "Macho Man" Randy Savage to bring Gorgeous George, Madusa and Miss Madness to the ring as what Gorgeous George has is a fraction of what Savage and Madusa are going to get. When they all show up, Gorgeous George is seen on crutches while Madusa is dressed for the ring. Savage tells Flair to get ready, and he will take him and Robinson all the way down. He won the battle, but did not lose the war, and says Flair will feel the madness and it will not feel good at all.

"Macho Man" Randy Savage and Madusa beat "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair and "Little Nature Boy" Charles Robinson after Madusa keeps Flair out of the ring following the top rope elbow drop to Robinson.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews "Rowdy" Roddy Piper. Piper shows up with a clipboard in his hand. Piper insists that he is WCW President. He says he has been listening to "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, and says Flair has gone way over the edge. He says he has ten reasons Flair should not be running a gas station, much less WCW. He says he is broke, and asks how is he going to budget WCW if he has no money of his own. Piper then talks about a time 15 years ago in North Carolina, when he was sitting at a bar at the Hilton when Flair shows up in drag with a Dolly Patron wig and comedy breasts and danced all night and danced a little longer with some guy who looked like Barbra Striesand. He also says that he has Charles Robinson stalking RuPaul. He then says that Flair says "the Y2K problem is no problem" because Robinson has two tubes of jelly in his bag. He also says Flair thought "The Phanton Menace" was Hilary Clinton. He then says that Flair was once in the office naked chasing himself around the desk. He also says Ric Flair is Dennis Rodman's best friend as well as his marriage and sports counselor. Piper also says that when he sent Flair to the nuthouse, Flair met Dr. Kevorkian, and after ten minutes, Dr. Kevorkian was trying to stick the needle in his own arm. He says that Space Mountain has been dead for 15 years, and that Flair thinks Viagra is the world's biggest waterfalls. He also says one of Flair's old dates has said she would stand naked on an anthill than be in Ric Flair's hotel room for an hour as he talked about his World championships. Finally, according to The Nitro Girls, Flair has gone from "The 60-minute man" to "the 60-second scam." Piper then says he has been talking to Eric Bischoff, who has told him all kinds of Flair, and asks Brischoff to come to the ring so he can tell it all to the fans. Bischoff shows up, and Piper says he has wanted to punch him in the face and drag him around the ring until there was nothing left, and that all he has done has led to his hair turning gray. He reminds him of the time he fired Randy Anderson, and says he does not buy his apology. Bischoff says he has screwed up and made mistakes, and he apologizes to Piper and the fans for him. He does not blame Piper for not forgiving him, and tells him to judge him by what he does, not what he says. As Bischoff says he is committed to WCW, "Macho Man" Randy Savage shows up with Madusa, Gorgeous George and Miss Madness '99. Savage says it is simple, and that by the end of the evening, he wants a title shot against Kevin Nash. He says Bischoff - whom he never liked - messed him up as he had somebody that owed him something. Piper says Savage will get his title shot, as he is the commissioner, and that he will have to wait. Savage says he does what he wants, and says he is not leaving until he gets a World title shot against Kevin Nash. Suddenly, Gorgeous George hits Piper wih one of her crutches, revealing that she is not even hurt, and Savage hits both Piper with a piledriver before body slamming Eric Bischoff. As he goes up top for the elbow drop, Kevin Nash gets in the ring. Savage leaves, but not before demanding a World title shot from Kevin Nash as he thinks Nash is nothing but an ass who has no guts. Savage also tells Nash to hand him the title just like he did to Hollywood Hogan. Nash tells Savage that he can see he's "used his American Express card on his dates," and if he wants the belt from him, he will have to pry it from his dead hands. Savage says that can be arranged and that he would rather take it from him that way.

Hak and Chastity show up. He trashes Cedar Rapids, Iowa and the crowd, saying something stinks in the town. He says that he is the most hardcore wrestler on the planet and the king of extreme, and has said this since he showed up in WCW. He says he proved at Uncensored when he beat Bam Bam Bigelow and Raven and became the hardcore champion, then beat Bam Bam Bigelow to an inch of his career in Minnesota when he called him out, and beat Kevin Nash to an inch of his career as well. He also called out Goldberg and beat him to an inch of his career. Suddenly, Fit Finley shows up on the video screen, and says he is sick of him calling himself the king of hardcore, and says where he comes from is hardcore. He then tells Hak to get his kendo stick ready, because he's on his way. When he shows up, Hak asks Finley if he knows what he is getting into, then says he might as well give him his last request and hands him the microphone. Finley proceeds to hit Hak in the forehead with it, starting an impromptu hardcore match.

Hak vs. Fit Finley is thrown out after Brian Knobbs shows up and attacks both men, starting a brawl. Finley chases Hak to the back with a chair, and Knobbs chases Finley with a broken table.

Booker T is seen down on the ground backstage. Rick Steiner then says that Booker T didn't want to come to the ring as he cannot win without Stevie Ray's help. He then issues an open challenge to anyone in the locker room, but Rick Steiner gets impatient and leaves. As he makes his way up the ramp, Sting shows up and answers the open challenge.

Rick Steiner vs. Sting ends in a no-contest. During the match, Scott Steiner shows up, and he and Rick surround the ring. Lex Luger gets in the ring to pair up with Sting, and keeps both Steiners out of the ring.

Curt Hennig beats Konnan. Before the match, Konnan gives a shout-out to Tommy Boy Records. During the match, Hennig shoves the referee, and "Macho Man" Randy Savage shows up saying that Konnan is the first to feel the madness in his seek and destroy mission since "his boy" Kevin Nash does not have the guts to give him a World title shot. He tells Konnan to tell Nash what he said, and spits in his face. He says this is the way it is, as he does not need a reason for anything. Hennig then boots Konnan to the outside of the ring, and Savage attacks Konnan. Hennig then hits the Hennigplex for the win. After the match, Savage tells Konnan to tell Nash what he said, because it is only going to get worse from here.

Raven and Perry Saturn retain the WCW World Tag Team Championships against The Four Horsemen ("The Crippler" Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko). During the match, Kanyon gets on the apron, and "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson hits Benoit with the tire iron. Malenko goes up top, but Kanyon pushes him off. Saturn catches Malenko and hits the Death Valley Driver to retain the tag team titles. Backstage, Raven, Saturn and Kanyon meet up with Bam Bam Bigelow.

Kevin Nash retains the WCW World Heavyweight Championship against Diamond Dallas Page by disqualification after Bam Bam Bigelow - who has been at ringside since shortly after the beginning of the match - and "Macho Man" Randy Savage interfere. Page, Savage and Bigelow triple-team Kevin Nash, then Savage brings out Madusa, Gorgeous George and Miss Madness '99 out as he puts lipstick on Nash's face. A fan gets in the ring, but he is promptly caught by security as Savage continues to pummel Nash and hit him with the top rope elbow drop.

This year's SuperBrawl is officially known as SuperBrawl VI.

The Road Warriors (Animal and Hawk) beat The Faces of Fear (Meng and The Barbarian). After the match, "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews The Taskmaster and Hugh Morris. The Taskmaster says he has a problem with "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson after what happened last week. Anderson shows up with Flyin' Brian, and Taskmaster tells him to discipline Brian or suffer the consequences. Anderson chews out Brian for not helping Flair beat Hogan earlier tonight, and that if he's going to act like a child, he's gonna treat hi like one. He takes his belt off to hit Brian with it, but Morris and Taskmaster turn on Anderson before Taskmaster takes Anderson's belt and whips Pillman with it. Anderson fights back, hitting Morrus with a DDT before going after Taskmaster. He tells the WCW Executive Committee to give him a match against Anderson and Morrus unless they want a locker room bloodbath. Brian tells Anderson that he got them into this mess and that he'll get them out of it.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Sister Sherri in the ring...almost. Madusa gets Sherri from the top rope and the two of them immediately have a match.

Sister Sherri beats Madusa after reversing Madusa's attempt at reversing a top rope attack into a pinfall. Madusa continues to go after Sherri after the match.

"Macho Man" Randy Savager attacks The Giant from behind wit the WCW World Heavyweight Championship before the match. As soon as Savage gets the sleeper in on The Giant, the referee calls for the bell as "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair shows up and attacks Savage. He then hands Savage to The Giant, and tells him to lift Savage up before he knocks the ref out. The two of them together work on Randy Savage, with The Giant doing the work as Flair directs traffic while getting a few shots in himself. Hulk Hogan, now with his head and eye bandaged up, shows up with a steel chair to make the save, and smacks it right into the back of The Giant before hitting him with it twice in the head. Hugh Morrus, Meng, One Man Gang and The Taskmaster don't fare any better. Ric Flair gets into the commentary area and grabs a microphone. He tells Hogan he's beaten him twice on Nitro, and challenges him to a match at Superbrawl VI. The Giant shows up and tells Hogan his body, mind and soul will be his forever. Ric Flair then says he's facing Savage one more time for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, and taking it back. There will be two steel cage matches: one is Flair vs. Savage for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, while the other is Hogan vs. The Giant.
