Ring Announcer: Buddy Wagner
Referees: Terry Yorkston & Dick Kroll
1. The U.S. Express (Mike Rotundo & Barry Windham) defeated the team of Charlie Fulton & "The Duke of Dorchester" Pete Doherty at 4:08. Doherty kept the fans amused with his unorthodox behavior before being pinned by a Bulldog out of the corner from Barry Windham.
2. The Iron Sheik (w/ Classy Freddie Blassie) over Jose Luis Rivera by submission with the Camel Clutch at 4:54. The Sheik employed several suplex variations on his opponent as well as a well-placed kick to the midsection with the loaded toe of his boot to set up the finish. Freddie Blassie even got in a cheap shot on Rivera at one point with his Teakwood cane.
3. The popular Hillbilly Jim (w/ Lucky Horseshoe) beat "Canada's Greatest Athlete" Iron Mike Sharpe (w/ Dubious Left Forearm Pad) at 5:45. Some anxious moments for Jim as Iron Mike proved to be a handful, but the Hillbilly was finally able to score the pinfall after a Big Boot to the mush off the ropes.
4. "Ace" Cowboy Bob Orton Jr. (w/ Controversial Cast on his arm and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper) over the Tonga Kid at 7:33. Piper may have saved the day for his bodyguard by throwing a handful of powder into the Tonga Kid's eyes after Tonga had perched himself on the top rope and was ready to deliver a high risk maneuver. Orton immediately capitalized on the moment by hopping up to the 2nd turnbuckle and delivering his patented Superplex to pin his blinded opponent.
5. The Soul Patrol (Rocky Johnson & "Mr. U.S.A." Tony Atlas) defeated the rough and unpredictable Moondogs (Rex & Spot w/ Nasty Bones) by DQ at 7:27. Spot was caught red-handed clubbing Atlas from behind with one of the bones to draw the disqualification from Referee Dick Kroll.
6. In the Main Event, "Olympian" Ken Patera over Pedro Morales by disqualification at 15:20. Morales' fiery temper may have got the better of him as he was hit from behind with a Flying Knee Smash to the back by Patera while arguing with Referee Terry Yorkston over a slow count. The momentum of the blow sent Morales crashing into Yorkston and toppled the ref to the mat. A woozy Yorkston considered Morales' actions to be deliberate and immediately called for the bell.

5. Intercontinental Title Match. Challenger Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka defeated the defending Champ, the Magnificent Muraco (w/ Mr. Fuji) by DQ due to outside interference at 15:51.

Muraco retains the Intercontinental Title.
6. In the Main Event, Andre the Giant pinned Nikolai Volkoff (w/ Classy Freddie Blassie) with a Giant Head Butt followed by a Sit Down Splash at 11:56.

Referees: Billy Silverman & Charles Robinson

2. Big Al Greene was disqualified by Referee Charles Robinson for bringing a garbage can lid into the ring and smashing it over the head of "The Laughing Man" Hugh Morrus at 7:56.
3. Cruiserweight Tournament Match. The n.W.o.'s Syxx (w/ Scott Hall & taser stick) defeated Psicosis by DQ after Billy Kidman ran down to ringside, swiped Hall's taser stick and zapped Syxx in the ring with it. Kidman was recently eliminated from the tournament via count out after brawling with Syxx on the floor during a match against Chavo Guerrero Jr. After the bout, Psicosis had words with Kidman for costing him the match.

5. Tag Team Tournament Match. The Natural Born Thrillers' Perfect Event ("Perfect" Shawn Stasiak & "The Event" Chuck Palumbo w/ "Above Average" Mike Sanders) eliminated the Badlanders (Crowbar & David Flair w/ Daffney Unger) at 8:20.

Unaware of Sanders' shenanigans, Silverman put the ten count on the KO'd Crowbar.
6. U.S. Tournament Match. Raven (w/ Scotty Riggs) defeated "Dog-Faced Gremlin" Rick Steiner at 12:16. With Referee Charles Robinson knocked down in the action, Riggs slid a folding chair into the ring for Raven to use.

7. Grudge Match. Diamond Dallas Page (w/ wife Kimberly) over "Career Killer" Mike Awesome by DQ at 15:07. This was a Pier Six Brawl. An enraged DDP sought revenge for Awesome flirting with his wife at the Halloween Havoc pay-per-view in Macon, GA and costing him his match against Booker T. Page beat Awesome from pillar to post before finally hitting his Diamond Cutter finisher. Incredibly, Kimberly Page ran into the ring and jumped on Referee Billy Silverman to prevent him from making the three count. DDP immediately confronted her in the ring and was maced by his own wife ! The blinded DDP staggered right into an Awesome Bomb (Running Powerbomb ) from his opponent and was laid out on the mat. Awesome and Kimberly then embraced before leaving the ring together.

Backstage Segment - WCW GM Eric Bischoff's Office
A distraut and irate Diamond Dallas Page is being consoled by fellow New Jersey Triad member Chris Kanyon as they wait for Bischoff to arrive. DDP says that he can't believe Kimberly would walk out on him for Mike Awesome. He throws some furniture around the room and puts his fist through a sheetrock wall. Kanyon is trying to calm him down but DDP is consumed with anger.
4. Cruiserweight Tournament Match. Evan Karagias (w/ "Sugar" Shane Helms & Shannon Moore) eliminated "The Juice" Juventud Guerrera at 8:05. This was pretty much a three-against-one handicap match as Referee Jimmy Jett had his hands full in trying to prevent Helms and Moore from interferring. Juvy lost his temper with all the blatant cheating and refused to break clean on a corner beatdown of Karagias. Jett signaled for the DQ after his five count went ignored by Guerrera.
Backstage Segment - Outside Parking Lot
A limo pulls up to the Von Braun Civic Center. The chauffeur opens the door and Eric Bischoff steps out. We catch a quick glimpse of a lady in the back seat before the chaueffeur shuts the door.

The Champion, Sting (w/ Black & White Face Paint, Jungle Yell and Baseball Bat) defeated "The Chosen One" Jeff Jarrett (w/ Guitar, "Slap Nuts" T-Shirt & Vince Russo) by DQ at 13:06. With Referee Mark Johnson down on the mat and Jarrett caught in the Scorpion Deathlock, Russo ran into the ring and bashed Sting across the back with his own baseball bat to break the submission hold. As Sting stumbled to his feet to get his hands on Russo, Jarrett snuck up from behind and smashed his guitar over the Stinger's head. Jarrett then covered his KO'd opponent for the pin but Mark Johnson saw the guitar shot and signaled for the disqualification instead.

Nelson: "Ladies and Gentlemen, we're joined now by the "Champion of Apartheid" from South Africa, Colonel Debeers. And speaking of champions, perhaps you would like to congratulate the newly crowned AWA World Champion Rick Martel who defeated you, I might add, in the tournament Semi Finals enroute to the Title ?"
Debeers (looking furious): "Sir, why would I congratulate a cheater like Martel ??"
Nelson: "A cheater ??"
Debeers: "You all saw it. I had my foot on the ropes at The Palace in Auburn Hills, but the bias American Referee Robert Warren ignored it and counted the pin anyway. Well, that may be the way you do things here in America, Sir, but where I come from it would not be tolerated ! And neither would wrestlers like Scott Hall who inflate their muscles with illegal vitamins and supplements !"
Nelson: "Now wait a minute, are you seriously suggesting that Scott Hall is using a foreign substance in his training regimen ??"
Debeers: "Sir, like all Americans, Scott Hall is a cheater. He is a different kind of cheater than Rick Martel, but he is a cheater nonetheless. Scott Hall, you may have these clueless AWA fans around here fooled, but your use and abuse of anabolic steroids has not gone unnoticed. In South Africa, we don't need to rely on drugs to build our muscles. We work out eight hours a day, seven days a week in the gymnasium. You, Sir, are a cheater, Scott Hall, and I defy you to prove me otherwise !"
Nelson (disgusted): "Alright, I've heard enough ! Let's go back up to ringside for our next contest."

The Undertaker entered the ring only to have the cocky brat Shawn Michaels dance around him throwing mock jabs and punches.
