The show begins with Eric Bischoff asking a security guard to stop "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair from entering the building. When that does not work, he asks arena security to do the same after telling head of WCW Security Doug Dellinger he has screwed it up one too many times.
We see footage from after last week's episode where Sting is tended to and placed on a stretcher following his brawl with Bret "The Hit Man" Hart.
We see a performance by The Nitro Girls.
It is announced that World Championship Wrestling and CapitalOne set up a big event on Wall Street featuring top WCW Superstars to unveil the very first WCW MasterCard. (The video package for this announcement uses "Loaded" by Zack Tempest, which is the same music that The Hardy Boyz (Jeff and Matt Hardy) would later use when they join the WWF full-time and eventually become associated with them throughout the years.)
Wrath beats Lodi. After the match, Meng is seen approaching the ring, and Wrath meets him in the aisle for a brawl.
Dale Torborg beats Kendall Windham. During the match, Torborg hurts his knee coming down from a high kick to Windham.
We see another performance by The Nitro Girls.
Shane from Black Cat Tattoo in Atlanta, Georgia is the winner of this week's Nitro Party Pack. We see some footage from his Nitro Party.
Sting shows up. Last week, he and Bret "The Hit Man" beat each other into submission in the back, and now he is calling Bret out. He also calls out Hollywood Hogan, telling him he will put him in a black box and send it back to Hollywood, California. All of a sudden, The Warrior shows up, and tells Sting he has to agree with him on how far a little dab of paint will take someone. Far from the beginning and from their beginning, he will leave the history lesson to others, but he has watched his career and has nothing but unconditional respect and tells Sting that WCW is his battleground, not The Warrior's, and that he has intruded to make a one-time request. He says it is fatal to enter any battle without the will to win, and brings up his battle with Hogan at Halloween Havoc. His Warriors give him the will to win one battle at a time, and if Sting is to call out the anti-heroes of our time, then he demands that he stand alongside him to fight.
Pyrotechnics signal the start of the second hour. Mike Tenay mentions Sting and The Warrior's brief past history as a tag team known as "The Blade Warriors" before they both moved to different companies and earned significant solo success, leaving them unable to team since.
Hollywood Hogan, Eric Bischoff and The Giant show up. Hogan says the black-and-white can be seen no matter where you look, and that The Giant is taking care of Goldberg and taking back the World title in a no-disqualification match. He has heard what Sting and The Warrior have to say, and he has talked to Bret "The Hit Man" Hart. As they talked, he could not wipe the smile off of his face and it would be a pleasure to take Sting and Warrior and wipe the paint off their faces. He plans to prove that he still rules in the tag team match tonight. As Hogan, Bischoff and The Giant leave, someone tells Bischoff that "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair is in the building. He heads outside to see a white limo pull up, and Flair comes out with the rest of The Four Horsemen ("The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, Steve "Mongo" McMichael, Dean Malenko). Bischoff is stopped by Bischoff and the police, but Flair brings out the owner of the arena, Bruce McGardner, who says that The Horsemen are sitting with him in an executive box tonight, much to the aggravation of Bischoff, who says he has a corporate lease. THe owner and The Horsemen are then let into the arena as Bischoff threatens to sue the owner. Bischoff then takes his anger out on head of WCW Security Doug Dellinger and arena security for not doing their jobs.
Before the next match, Alex Wright mocks the fans and says that everyone knows he is the greatest European wrestler after having beaten Norman Smiley, The British Bulldog, and soon, Fit Finley, whom he says ended his father's career. Tonight, he plans to end Fit Finley's.
Alex Wright beats Fit Finley after using the top rope for leverage during the pinfall. As soon as Wright gets out of the ring, he is attacked by The British Bulldog. After Bulldog and Finley knock Alex out of the ring, Finley attacks Bulldog before leaving.
Before the next match, United Center owner Bruce McGardner and The Four Horsemen ("The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, Steve "Mongo" McMichael, Dean Malenko) are seen in the executive box with beautiful women.
Super Calo, Chavo Guerrero Jr. and Psychosis beat La Parka, Ciclope and Villano V. During the end of the match, Eddie Guerrero shows up with the Latino World Order. Eddie says that Eric Bischoff does not respect la raza or lucha libre, and dares anybody from the nWo to do what they do. He says that Bischoff has taken advantage of the economical situation at home and brought them to America only to work for peanuts, and that Bischoff does not respect any of them. He then tells Bischoff they are his future whether they like it or not, and they will get their piece of the cake. Psychosis joins the LWO as Chavo leaves.
We see another performance by The Nitro Girls.
Scott Steiner shows up. He says that professional wrestlers that go through similar situations always seem to bond together, just like how Rick Steiner jumped on his back to get championships just like how the Chicago Cubs jumped on Sammy Sosa's back in the hope to get back into the World Series. However, he has convinced Sammy Sosa to go to a contender, and that the Chicago Cubs suck. Scott Steiner says there is not a single woman he could not put down horizontally and see nothing but satisfaction in their eyes, and tells all the "freaks" that "Big Poppa Pump" is their hook-up and to holler if they hear him. Last week, however, he had a woman show up unwanted and uninvited to embarrass Buff Bagwell, and that he convinced Buff that when Buff is in his world, he is the stuff, and that he has convinced his mother to stay at home and out of nWo business. He says there will be no fireworks tonight, as Buff knows the kind of athlete he is and that he and Buff are close friends. Buff Bugwell shows up with mother Judy Bagwell, and Buff Bagwell tells Scott Steiner that they have not worked anything and that they have a problem. Scott tells him the only problem he sees is that Buff has a hurt neck and that he can break it instantly. Buff says he has listened to her mother, and that she was right: everything has gone too far and that it is all Scott's fault. Scott says "Mommy's boy is getting a little soft," and entertains the idea of ripping the black-and-white nWo shirt off his back. Buff then says it is really clear, and says that they should probably go one-on-one right now. Scott Steiner calls Judy Bagwell "an old bag," and tells him that if she gets in his way, there will be problems, and she has problems. Scott says he should have slapped Judy last week, and says he wants her out before he puts her out. Buff clocks Scott, but Scott hits Buff with a low blow before dropping him throat first on the top rope. Scott then says that anyone who stands up to him is going down, as he is nWo for life. The show goes to break as Scott Steiner dares anyone to get in the ring with him.
United Center owner Bruce McGardner and The Four Horsemen ("The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson, "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, Steve "Mongo" McMichael, Dean Malenko) are seen in the executive box with beautiful women again.
Before the next match, Disco Inferno tells Prince Iaukea and Juventud Guerrera that nobody came to see him wrestle and that everyone paid to see him dance. Disco Inferno then gets on the apron and is about to dance to his entrance music when Prince Iaukea knocks him off the apron and into the guardrail. Shortly after the match begins, Kidman shows up, grabs a steel chair and chases Disco Inferno to the back with it.
Juventud Guerrera beats Prince Iaukea. During the match, Disco Inferno shows up again and gets on the apron, distracting Prince Iaukea, who punches him in the face only for Juventud to pin him with a schoolboy pin. After the match, Kidman shows up again, gets his hands on Disco Inferno, and punches Disco all over the arena.
Kevin Nash shows up. He says he has been sitting backstage for a couple of hours now, and he has seen Scott Hall stagger around like he usually does. He then says it takes a lot to get him upset, but Hall has touched his last nerve. Before he wrestled, he was a bouncer, and if there is something he does very well, it is beating up drunks. He tells Scott Hall to come out, because it is last call. Scott Hall shows up with a drink in one hand and a microphone in the other, and tells Nash to make it a double and six to go. He then puts the drink down and tells Nash that if he wants to fight, he will fight him, but he will fight him "down here." Nash gets out of the ring and chases him to the back. Nash then tries to find him in the back, and a cameraman eventually follows Nash outside, where Hall is leaving the building via a limousine. Nash gets in a Cadillac and follows Hall's limo.
Chris Jericho retains the WCW World Television Championship against Raven.
Pyrotechnics signal the start of the third hour.
"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Rick Steiner. Rick says he didn't push too far to get his match against Scott Steiner, saying Steiner has brought everything on himself. The wicked laughter is heard one more time, and this time, we see the source: horror movie icon and the most recognizable star of the Child's Play series, Chucky. He asks who Okerlund is calling a dummy, as he is standing with "a genetic throwback who barks at the moon." He then tells Okerlund to "shut the hell up," and says he is here to talk to Rick, who tells him to come to the ring. Chucky tells Rick he's been playing his dolls all his life, but he's not his type and that he needs a kinder, gentler, dumber doll as he can show him real body mutilation and have the dogs chew on him like some old shoe. He then tells everyone to see his new movie Bride of Chucky on October 16th, and tells Rick not to mess with Scott, as he is the lead in his next project. If Rick messes with Scott, he messes with him and his Academy Award and he will get more than lucky...he will get even. (This guest appearance by Chucky is booed by the crowd after it becomes apparent that his appearance is solely to promote his new movie.)
This Tuesday on QVC: World Championship Wrestling premieres on QVC Sports at 8 PM Eastern, 5 PM Pacific.
Eric Bischoff shows up. He insists that the arena is his tonight, and he does not want "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, regardless of whether or not he is friends with United Center owner Bruce McGardner. He then calls out head of WCW Security Doug Dellinger and WCW Executive Committee Chairman J.J. Dillon, who both show up. Bischoff says he will teach Dillon a management lesson tonight, and commands Dellinger to head up to the executive box and get rid of Flair. Bischoff, Dellinger and Dillon head towards the executive box through the crowd. A camera crew eventually catches up with them, and Bischoff finally gets the attention of McGardner, who tells him that this is a private party that has nothing to do with his event. When Bischoff puts his hands on McGardner, security quickly gets their hands on Bischoff and pin him to the floor. Dellinger is seen smiling as Bischoff is pinned down, and Flair heads into the hallway and demands Bischoff be tossed out before Bischoff is carried out of the building to the delight of many cheering fans. Ric Flair is then seen dancing around outside of the box, and McGardner raises up the four fingers on both hands. After the commentary team has a good laugh, the camera crew catches up with security, who then put a power-mad Bischoff in the back of an unmarked police car.
Goldberg beats The Giant by count-out in a no-disqualification match. Stevie Ray hits Goldberg with a chair, which has no effect. The Giant then choke slams Goldberg, but Diamond Dallas Page shows up, breaks up the pinfall and hits Stevie Ray with a Diamond Cutter only to be nearly choke slammed by The Giant. Goldberg hits The Giant with a Spear before he can do it, and Stevie Ray and The Giant flee before DDP heads to the back. Goldberg then tells Page "At Halloween Havoc, your ass is mine!"
We see another performance by The Nitro Girls.
Sting and The Warrior beat Hollywood Hogan and Bret "The Hit Man" Hart by disqualification. During the match, nWo Hollywood shows up and attack The Warrior, then smoke begins to fill up the ring as The Warrior is tossed out of the ring. Sting gets in the ring with the baseball and clears the ring out, while The Warrior attacks Hogan and nWo Hollywood with his own belt outside of the ring as he chases them to the back as the show ends.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for May 27, 1996
Goldust and THe Ultimate Warrior fight to a double count-out and neither man advances in the King of the Ring tournament. During the match, Vince McMahon apologizes for not delivering on three matches last night, and announces that there will be a special pay-per-view event tomorrow night at 8 PM Eastern and Pacific/7 PM Central where the three matches - Savio Vega vs. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin in a Caribbean Strap match, Yokozuna vs. Vader and Goldust vs. The Undertaker for the WWF Intercontinental Championship in a casket match - will take place. Also, Goldust tries to retreat from the match, but Ahmed Johnson - who is scheduled to face Vader later tonight - tosses Goldust back into the ring before the commercial break. Before the match ends, however, Jerry "The King" Lawler tries to attack The Warrior with what is left of Marlena's director's chair when he says that Warrior is going after Marlena (as opposed to Goldust), but runs away when Warrior notices him.
We see footage of the storm near the arena on the night of In Your House: Beware of Dog, as well as the power going out and the Superstars having their matches in the dark. The power outage even makes the front page of the Florence Morning News in Florence, South Carolina.
"The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase says Savio Vega's victory in the dark last night was a fluke, and says Vega can't beat Austin even on his best day. DiBiase decides to "sweeten the pie" and proclaims that he is so confident that Austin will beat Vega, The Million Dollar Man himself will forfeit his WWF career and leave the World Wrestling Federation.

Ahmed Johnson is carried to the back on a stretcher, as officials are unable to bring his back around. Goldust shows up and gives Ahmed mouth-to-mouth, but when AHmed comes to and sees the gold paint on his lips, he goes after Goldust. He pins Bob "Spark Plugg" Holly to the wall and asks "Wildman" Marc Mero where Goldust is, and when he finds Goldust's dressing room, thanks to Mero, he plows through the guy guarding it and through the door, finding that Goldust isn't there. He then punches out the cameraman before going further into the backstage area looking for Goldust.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for April 29, 1996
It is revealed at the beginning of the show that the reason The British Bulldog wanted to confront "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels last night was because of rumors that Michaels slept with his wife, Diana Hart Smith.

Vince McMahon interviews The British Bulldog and his wife Diana Hart Smith in the ring. He then introduces "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels. Michaels says that one month ago, nobody thought his wrestling style would last sixty minutes against Bret "The Hit Man" Hart, but he adapated to Hart's style, danced for 63 minutes, and came out on top. Last night, nobody thought his wrestling style would hold up against Diesel, but he held his own and gave Diesel an ass-whipping of his own. Michaels then says he can adapt to any style and that he is ready for the best the WWF has to offer. Jim Cornette confronts The Heartbreak Kid for sleeping with Diana Hart Smith. It is shown through last night's footage that a production assistant asked Diana to come with him to the back, as Jim Cornette was in trouble. She goes to the back. Cornette was not waiting there, but Michaels supposedly was. Cornette says that Michaels put his arm around her, took her to a dark corner and propositioned her. Cornette wants to know what kind of person what do this, and calls Michaels a sleazebag (among other things). Cornette then forces Michaels to face Diana, and accuses Michaels of being a fornicator. Diana tells Michaels he knows he wants her, but Michaels tells her with all due respect not to flatter herself. Diana slaps Michaels in the face, then Michaels says "I guess we all know who wears the pants in the Smith family." Bulldog then attacks Michaels, starting a brawl before the break.

Mankind says there are over 740 pressure points in the human body, and "during the course of an isolated adolescence, [he] explored them all and searched for the weapon from which there would be no escape." He says "It was a wonderful nerve, underneath the eye socket, but underneath the tongue where the flesh is weak and the nerves run deep, when enough force is exhibited, there is no escape. Temporary paralysis overcomes the body and the only hope for Mankind's love for humanity" - and he assures he is thine. He is surprised not only of the fact that he was able to beat Undertaker with the hold, and tells 'Taker to show some courage of he will destroy him whenever and wherever he chooses, as he is tired of 'Taker's weakness.

Come As You Are (WWF Superstar) - Superstars recap for May 16, 1992
Shawn Michaels beats Sonny Blaze. During the match, it is announced that an article titled "Separating The Men From The Boys" concerning Shawn and Bret "Hit Man" Hart is in the newest issue of WWF Magazine.
We hear from The Mountie, who says he had a feeling of power when he shocked Sgt. Slaughter last week, and says that Slaughter will surrender to him.
Tatanka beats Barry Hardy. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Tatanka, who tells "The Model" Rick Martel he has overcome being blinded with Arrogance, but that he will now seek revenge for disgracing his heritage by walking around with the feathers he took from him.
The Berzerker beats Scott Taylor by count-out after tossing Taylor out of the ring. During the match, it is announced that a poster of The Undertaker is included in Posters II, now on newsstands.
We hear from "El Matador" Tito Santana, who says there is always something going on in the World Wrestling Federation that causes a lot of excitement; however, not every wrestler is able to handle it. He says he has seen it all, and he knows what it takes to get to the top, and he knows that there are individuals who will do whatever it takes and take people out of wrestling to do it. He, however, will keep on digging on his way to the top, and he thanks the fans for their support, as he needs it now more than ever. We also hear from The Nasty Boys (Jerry Sags and Brian Knobbs). Sags tells High Energy (Koko B. Ware and "The Rocket" Owen Hart) that their high-flying won't cut it in Nastyville, and Knobbs says they have been tag team champions before and they will be again, and that they are coming at High Energy with everything they've got.
We hear from Crush, who is in a junkyard as he says that if you were him, you would know how tough it is to crush your opponents every night. He then shows what he does to relax, unwind and be himself: crush a car in an auto compactor.
Repo Man beats Jay Sledge by submission. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from The British Bulldog - who is taking some time off on doctor's orders - who says Repo Man's rope backfired with him, and that Repo Man will find out that his bite is worse than his bark. After the match, Repo Man wraps his rope around Jay Sledge's neck.
Sean Mooney announces the Personal Fitness Expo '92 taking place in Long Beach, California on June 13th and 14th at the Long Beach Convention Center. We then hear from Skinner, who asks the fans if they have been keeping score and keeping track of all the Superstars he have knocked off. He says that 85% of the Superstars are wearing his brand after being spat on, and says that when summer comes, it will be time to turn up the heat and make it as hot as a day in the Everglades. We also hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says that everyone talks about the excellence of execution and how hard it is to live up to it. He came close to getting his bell rung at WrestleMania 8, but he walked out with the Intercontinental title and he is back on stop, and he will stay there as he takes on anyone anytime and anywhere. He says that if Shawn Michaels wants to be the first, that is fine with him, as he has a lot of respect for him and all the wrestlers of the World Wrestling Federation. However, Shawn is up against the excellence of execution.
The Big Boss Man beats Glenn Ruth. Before the match, Mr. Perfect announces that Shawn Michaels has left the building, and Vince McMahon announces that the person who has something against Boss Man has served his time and is now out on the streets. After the match, a loud voice is heard, telling Boss Man that he has done his time and that he is coming for him.
The Ultimate Warrior beats Brian Knobbs despite being nailed with a steel chair by Jerry Sags. During the match, Knobbs rips a wristband off of The Ultimate Warrior, and Papa Shango shows up and takes it with him to the back. After the match, Warrior knocks the heads of Jimmy Hart and Jerry Sags into each other, then Papa Shango shows up and goes into some sort of trance. Suddenly, Warrior doubles over on the ring apron and falls to the floor as Papa Shango's curse takes hold, and officials have to check on Warrior before helping him to the back.
Backstage, The Ultimate Warrior is placed on a gurney, and Warrior projectile vomits as officials and EMTs try to keep Warrior from convulsing.
Before the next match, The Genius reads a poem: "Here is to the Legion of Sissies / a fate much worse than doom / from L.O.D. to L.O.S. / it's worse than you presume / As sure as I'm The Genius with The Brothers Beverly / Hawk, Animal and Ellering are now the sissies three."
The Beverly Brothers (Beau and Blake Beverly) beat Bobby Knight and "Jumpin'" Jim Brunzell. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from The Legion of Doom (Road Warrior Animal and Road Warrior Hawk) and Paul Ellering. Ellering says he has had it up to hear with The Beverly Brothers and all their "sissy talk," and he wants them completely wiped out. Hawk and Animal say "No problem." After the match, one of The Beverly Brothers's opponents gets "LOS" painted on their chest, then place a fake mohawk cap on top of their head before slapping them.
We hear from Virgil, who thanks the fans all around the world for being behind him 100%, as the competition is sky high and a guy named Papa Shango is around. He says that together, he and the fans can conquer the world and he can take on some of the strange guys in the World Wrestling Federation. We also hear from Repo Man, who says his job is never done as he has to do his job in the middle of his night. He says he owns The British Bulldog, and says he will put the leash on and choke him if he barks too long.
It is announced that The Ultimate Warrior has stopped convulsing and that an update on his condition will be available next week.
Next week: The Bushwhackers (Bushwhacker Butch and Bushwhacker Luke)! Kamala! The Undertaker! Money Inc. ("The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Irwin R. Schyster)!
We hear from The Mountie, who says he had a feeling of power when he shocked Sgt. Slaughter last week, and says that Slaughter will surrender to him.
Tatanka beats Barry Hardy. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from Tatanka, who tells "The Model" Rick Martel he has overcome being blinded with Arrogance, but that he will now seek revenge for disgracing his heritage by walking around with the feathers he took from him.
The Berzerker beats Scott Taylor by count-out after tossing Taylor out of the ring. During the match, it is announced that a poster of The Undertaker is included in Posters II, now on newsstands.
We hear from "El Matador" Tito Santana, who says there is always something going on in the World Wrestling Federation that causes a lot of excitement; however, not every wrestler is able to handle it. He says he has seen it all, and he knows what it takes to get to the top, and he knows that there are individuals who will do whatever it takes and take people out of wrestling to do it. He, however, will keep on digging on his way to the top, and he thanks the fans for their support, as he needs it now more than ever. We also hear from The Nasty Boys (Jerry Sags and Brian Knobbs). Sags tells High Energy (Koko B. Ware and "The Rocket" Owen Hart) that their high-flying won't cut it in Nastyville, and Knobbs says they have been tag team champions before and they will be again, and that they are coming at High Energy with everything they've got.
We hear from Crush, who is in a junkyard as he says that if you were him, you would know how tough it is to crush your opponents every night. He then shows what he does to relax, unwind and be himself: crush a car in an auto compactor.
Repo Man beats Jay Sledge by submission. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from The British Bulldog - who is taking some time off on doctor's orders - who says Repo Man's rope backfired with him, and that Repo Man will find out that his bite is worse than his bark. After the match, Repo Man wraps his rope around Jay Sledge's neck.
Sean Mooney announces the Personal Fitness Expo '92 taking place in Long Beach, California on June 13th and 14th at the Long Beach Convention Center. We then hear from Skinner, who asks the fans if they have been keeping score and keeping track of all the Superstars he have knocked off. He says that 85% of the Superstars are wearing his brand after being spat on, and says that when summer comes, it will be time to turn up the heat and make it as hot as a day in the Everglades. We also hear from Bret "Hit Man" Hart, who says that everyone talks about the excellence of execution and how hard it is to live up to it. He came close to getting his bell rung at WrestleMania 8, but he walked out with the Intercontinental title and he is back on stop, and he will stay there as he takes on anyone anytime and anywhere. He says that if Shawn Michaels wants to be the first, that is fine with him, as he has a lot of respect for him and all the wrestlers of the World Wrestling Federation. However, Shawn is up against the excellence of execution.
The Big Boss Man beats Glenn Ruth. Before the match, Mr. Perfect announces that Shawn Michaels has left the building, and Vince McMahon announces that the person who has something against Boss Man has served his time and is now out on the streets. After the match, a loud voice is heard, telling Boss Man that he has done his time and that he is coming for him.
The Ultimate Warrior beats Brian Knobbs despite being nailed with a steel chair by Jerry Sags. During the match, Knobbs rips a wristband off of The Ultimate Warrior, and Papa Shango shows up and takes it with him to the back. After the match, Warrior knocks the heads of Jimmy Hart and Jerry Sags into each other, then Papa Shango shows up and goes into some sort of trance. Suddenly, Warrior doubles over on the ring apron and falls to the floor as Papa Shango's curse takes hold, and officials have to check on Warrior before helping him to the back.
Backstage, The Ultimate Warrior is placed on a gurney, and Warrior projectile vomits as officials and EMTs try to keep Warrior from convulsing.
Before the next match, The Genius reads a poem: "Here is to the Legion of Sissies / a fate much worse than doom / from L.O.D. to L.O.S. / it's worse than you presume / As sure as I'm The Genius with The Brothers Beverly / Hawk, Animal and Ellering are now the sissies three."
The Beverly Brothers (Beau and Blake Beverly) beat Bobby Knight and "Jumpin'" Jim Brunzell. During the match, we see pre-recorded comments from The Legion of Doom (Road Warrior Animal and Road Warrior Hawk) and Paul Ellering. Ellering says he has had it up to hear with The Beverly Brothers and all their "sissy talk," and he wants them completely wiped out. Hawk and Animal say "No problem." After the match, one of The Beverly Brothers's opponents gets "LOS" painted on their chest, then place a fake mohawk cap on top of their head before slapping them.
We hear from Virgil, who thanks the fans all around the world for being behind him 100%, as the competition is sky high and a guy named Papa Shango is around. He says that together, he and the fans can conquer the world and he can take on some of the strange guys in the World Wrestling Federation. We also hear from Repo Man, who says his job is never done as he has to do his job in the middle of his night. He says he owns The British Bulldog, and says he will put the leash on and choke him if he barks too long.
