WCW Saturday Night
31st January 1998
FleetCenter - Boston, Massachusetts
Saturday Night opens with a video of the Souled Out main event World title megaclash between Hollywood Hogan and Sting. Epic action movie music, Michael Buffer being Michael Buffer and Tony Schiavone calling this match a matter of life or death for the nWo. Sting is attacked on the aisle by Hogan before he can even get into the ring. They brawl on the outside, with Hogan using his belt on Sting, whipping him in the back. Hogan uses Sting’s coat to choke him and then poses for the crowd. Sting comes up behind and steamrollers Hogan, taking the belt off Hogan and beating him from here to Venice BEach with it. Hogan tries to flee, but Sting chokes him with the belt and pulls him towards the ring. He then goes for a Stinger Splash on the outside, but Hogan moves out of the way, sending Sting crashing into the railing. When they're finally both in the cage, Hogan tries to ram Sting into the cage and blocks a suplex, before taking over completely for a while. Hogan goes for a leg drop, BUT MISSES! Sting rams Hogan into the cage and busts him open, before taking him down with a shoulder block. Hogan flops into the corner, STINGER SPLASH! NO! Hogan ducks out of the way and Sting smashes into the cage! BIG BOOT FROM HOGAN! LEG DROP OF DOOM! 1! 2! NO! Hogan looks terrified that Sting kicked out! He can't believe it. Hogan tries in vein to come back with punches, but Sting no-sells everything as he gains momentum. Sting Hulks Up! Stinger Splash... And another! Scorpion Death Lock... But Hogan reaches the ropes. LOWBLOW FROM HOGAN! Hogan heads for the cage door and tries to make his escape, but here comes Bret Hart! Hogan calls for him to open the door and Hart does. Hart's nWo! BUT WAIT! As Hogan makes his way through the door, Hart slams the door shut on Hogan's head! Hogan collapses into the ring as Hart locks the door shut. The nWo try to come down but they're stopped by two men in all black with balaclavas! Scorpion Death Drop to Hogan. 1! 2! 3! STING HAS DEFEATED HOGAN AND RETAINED THE WORLD TITLE! Sting celebrates as Bret Hart enters the cage, faces off with Sting and shakes his hand as the video fades out to a capacity crowd in the FleetCenter in Boston, Massachusetts. Tonight sees the arena hosting Boston Brawl, an internet PPV. The set is a cool depiction of the Boston city landscape, replete with cardboard skyscrapers and monuments. We'll have all the fallout from Souled Out and all the hype for Boston Brawl but before all that, we're heading to the ring for our first match of the night.
1. WRATH VS. SGT. BUDDY LEE PARKER
Wrath dominates from the bell, battering Parker in the corner. Parker reverses a corner-to-corner whip and Wrath is propelled across the ring to the other corner. A few punches from Parker are useless, as they have no effect on Wrath who boots him in the face, sending him flying over the top rope. The Sarge desperately slams Wrath into the ring post and rolls Wrath back in. Parker goes up top and misses with a top rope clothesline, ONLY FOR WRATH TO NEARLY DECAPITATE HIM WITH A CLOTHESLINE OF HIS OWN! Wrath hits Parker with several knees and elbows. Sarge is whipped into the ropes, shoulder tackle from Wrath, followed by more knees and chops. Death Penalty from Wrath means it's time for... THE MELTDOWN! 1! 2! 3! Wrath picks up a routine squash victory without even breaking a sweat.
Winner - Wrath via Pinfall @ 2:11
2. HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN VS. BRAD ARMSTRONG
Hacksaw Jim Duggan is back in WCW after a hiatus from in-ring action! The crowd (as always) absolutely love Hacksaw, and if anything, the extended absence has made the crowd fonder of Hacksaw, because he is over like rover. Hacksaw stalls with some "HOOOO!"s, but Armstrong jumps him from behind, taking the advantage and using some illegal tactics to keep Hacksaw at bay. But as the match continues, the "USA!" chants grow louder and louder until Duggan gets a burst of energy and rallies back, steamrolling Armstrong in the process. A three-point-stance clothesline is followed up with an Old Glory kneedrop that gives Hacksaw the pinfall victory.
Winner - Hacksaw Jim Duggan via Pinfall @ 3:33
*Commercial Break*
We see still photos as Dusty and Hudson talk us through the US title match featuring DDP and Curt Hennig. It descends into a brawl as the locker room empties out to clear the nWo members constantly trying to interfere. Referees and officials make their way out to break up the brawl. DDP gets the Diamond Cutter, but Rick Rude makes his way on to the apron to distract the ref. Malenko makes his way in with a chair and lays Rude out with it, before chucking him out of the ring. In the commotion, Hennig is able to roll up Page and grab the tights to steal the victory and the title. The rematch on Nitro never officially begins as the nWo attacks DDP before he is able to make it to the ring. Hennig wins by forfeit, but his celebration is short lived as JJ Dillon announces that Page will receive his rematch at Boston Brawl and if the nWo lay a finger on Page before the match or interfere in the match, Hennig will lose the title.
3. DOC DEAN/MANNY FERNANDEZ VS. LORD STEVEN REGAL/DAVE TAYLOR
The match begins with Taylor taking on Doc Dean in a mismatched fistfight. Dean tries some weak offence, most of which misses, but Taylor dominates with stiff shots. Eventually, Dean tags in Fernandez, and we get a showdown between Taylor's stiff European uppercuts and Fernandez's good old fashioned American rights. Fernandez gets the upper hand of the exchange, which brings Regal into the ring. Dean dropkicks Regal over the top rope, sending him to the floor. Fernandez also clotheslines Taylor over the top rope as Dean and Fernandez stand tall in the ring. Regal and Taylor stall on the outside, taking their time getting back in the ring. Dean's had enough and bounces off the top rope and hits them with a crossbody, but the Blue Bloods catch him in midair! Fernandez looks round and then does something very peculiar for him by leaping through the second rope and hitting them with a suicide dive! Wow! All four men go down, but we find out the reason why Manny Fernandez shys away from this sort of high-risk offense. Fernandez cries out in pain, holding his wrist, before calling for the referee. It looks like Fernandez has taken a bad fall and has injured something in his hand. The referee calls an audible and gets the ringside doctor to take a look at Fernandez's hand, but Regal interrupts his checks. The referee restrains him, but this just gives Taylor the chance to sneak in a shot at Fernandez too. Regal and Taylor take down Dean and throw Fernandez in the ring. Taylor tags in Regal who goes to work on Fernandez's arm, stomping him in the hand and locking in various submission holds on the clearly injured Fernandez. The referee tells Regal to lay off the arm, but Regal ignores him. Regal and Taylor cut the ring in half and work over Fernandez with wristlocks, tagging in and out frequently. Eventually, Fernandez somehow manages to make the hot tag to Dean who comes out flying. Regal and Taylor try to intercept him with a double clothesline, but both men get speared for their troubles. Dean throws Taylor out of the ring with Dean and Regal going head-to-head back and forth. Every time Dean gets the advantage, Regal angrily blames the referee and the fans for distracting him. Regal executes a brutal snap suplex on Dean but Dean somehow kicks out, sending Regal into a rage. He turns his attention to arguing with the referee, the diversion allows Dean to roll Regal up. It's a close near fall, but he can't get him. Dean charges for a running clothesline, Regal dodges and shoves Dean into Fernandez! Fernandez tumbles off the apron awkwardly. Taylor then grabs Dean, pulling him under the ropes to the outside and chucks him into the steel barricade. Regal's arguing something to the ref... Wait! He's saying that was a tag! Well, Fernandez was in position in the corner, and Dean made contact with him, but come on! It wasn't a tag, it was accidental contact! Fernandez is up on the outside and he's pleading with the referee. He's in no condition to wrestle, if he keeps going, it could cause a serious injury. Regardless, the referee is saying it was a tag, so Fernandez is now the legal man. The very instant Fernandez makes his way into the ring, Regal grabs him, pulls him into the middle of the ring and locks in an armbar. The cameraman focuses in and we can see that Regal is actually also pulling Fernandez's fingers back as well. Fernandez has to flail his legs and somehow connects with a knee/shin to the head, causing some seperation. Fernandez tries to crawl over for the tag, but Regal just tries to apply an STF! Fernandez manages to push him, but Regal gets a hold of Fernandez's arm FOR ANOTHER ARMBAR! Regal smells blood and is going to keep going back to the arm until he gets Fernandez to submit. The referee realises that this is going to continue until Fernandez is critically injured or taps and calls for the bell. Fernandez doesn't give up, but the referee has seen enough, he's stopping this match before it goes any further.
Winners - Lord Steven Regal/Dave Taylor via Referee Stoppage @ 10:37
*Commercial Break*
More Souled Out stills from the Souled Out megaclash between Goldberg and The Giant. Giant is reticent as the two face off for the first time, circling each other. Giant stalls in the ropes to begin with, before stiffing Goldberg with two right hands to the face, but not even an extra big boot can take Goldberg off his feet as the two go nose-to-nose in the ring. Giant dominates Goldberg in the corner, but Goldberg grabs him by the throat on an attempted corner clothesline, with Goldberg looking especially mental sticking his tongue out and yelling at Giant before forcing him into the center of the ring. Goldberg hits Giant with right hands and even takes Giant down to one knee before booting him in the head to take him to the ground. Goldberg finally has the advantage, rushing Giant into a corner and shoulder barging him. Giant tries to punch his way out, but Goldberg dodges and floors him with an amazing spinebuster. The atmosphere becomes electric as Goldberg then picks the Giant up slowly and scoop slams all 500lbs of him! The crowd is now unglued as Goldberg readies for the Spear... but The Giant bails out of the ring. The crowd boos as The Giant walks out on the match, having had enough. Goldberg wins via countout, but the fans have been robbed of seeing the Giant being Jackhammered! Scott Hudson tells us that, as a result of the Giant walking out, there will be a rematch at Boston Brawl with no countout!
4. GOLDBERG VS. LOUIE SPICOLLI
As well as Goldberg being in action at Souled Out, Louie Spicolli fought Larry Zbyszko at the PPV too. Spicolli would get the win, after Dusty Rhodes tried to interfere on WCW's behalf, but ended up inadvertenly walloping Larry with a chair before Spicolli chucked him out of the ring and pinned Larry. A week on, and Dusty is now forced to commentate on Spicolli's match on Saturday Night. The American Dream looks embarassed as Spicolli makes his way out, trying to avoid making eye contact, but Louie isn't going to let it lie. He goes over to the announce desk and thanks Dusty for the help, holding his hand out for a high-five, but Dusty tells him to go to hell. Why am I telling you all this in the match description? Well, because when the referee rang the bell, Spicolli was still goading Dusty from the ropes. As Spicolli turned round to start the match, he was met with a SPEAR from Goldberg. Dusty is absolutely ecstatic, and actually leaps out of his seat. All commentator impartiality goes out the window as he wills Goldberg to "pick that dirty rat up off the mat" and plant him with... THE JACKHAMMER! 1! 2! 3! Goldberg continues his streak to 30-0!
Winner - Goldberg via Pinfall @ 0:14
Mean Gene is standing by with "Lionheart" Chris Jericho who is brandishing a massive folder of documents. Okerlund mentions that Jericho came up short in his quest to become Cruiserweight champion at Souled Out, losing to Juventud Guerrera and asks what the folder is all about. Jericho mentions that he did indeed lost to Juvi last weekend but that this wasn't because Juvi was the better man. Chris Jericho is the Lionheart... He doesn't lose to scrubs like Julio Herrera. Instead, Jericho lost because of a conspiracy orchestrated to keep the title on Juventud Guerrera. He opens the folder and shows us some documents including:
1. A clearly forged sick note from what is supposed to be Jericho's doctor (although he does seem to have suspiciously similar handwriting to Jericho) claiming that Jericho was too ill to compete at Souled Out, which Jericho claims WCW ignored.
2. Incredibly blurry security stills of what Jericho claims to be Guerrera injecting steroids. Jericho says that Juvi is a ball of nandrolone and he's surprised that he's even able to walk, he's so gassed up.
3. Eyewitness accounts from ringside of Juventud supposedly pulling Jericho's hair, using the ropes for leverage to get the pin, hitting a lowblow, biting Jericho in the forehead and putting his thumb in his eye. It's all nonsense, Juvi won cleanly but that won't stop Lionheart from making up allegations. In the words of Lionel Hutz, Attourney at Law "Don't worry, Homer. I have a fool proof strategy to get you out of here: surprise witnesses, each more surprising than the last. I tell you, the judge won't know what hit him!"
Jericho has reams more evidence, but he doesn't show us what else he has, only saying that he has passed it on to the WCW Championship Committee who have decided to grant him a rematch at Boston Brawl. Jericho says that he doesn't believe this ends with Juvi and that this is part of a widespread conspiracy which goes right to the top of WCW. Jericho says that forces higher up the company are conspiring to keep him from becoming the main event star champion that he should so obviously be and that he isn't going to let them stop him. Jericho says that Bret Hart has moaned and whined about Montreal since the day he left Stanford, but the real screwjob happened to him at Souled Out, something he calls "The Dayton Screwjob". Jericho says he'll get his revenge and win the title later tonight.
5. BUFF BAGWELL VS. HECTOR GARZA
Hector Garza is out first, closely followed by Buff Bagwell who has something to get off of his chest. Buff is still reeling after answering Ric Flair's open challenge to any nWo member at Souled Out, only for the Nature Boy to hand him his ass in just under 4 minutes and make him tap in the Figure Four. Poor Buff grabs the microphone from David Penzer and begins to rant at the fans about how the nWo is number 1 and no two-bit acrobat from Enchiladaville was going to beat him because he's Buff and he's the stuff. Garza realises this isn't ending any time soon and decides to get comfy and sit on top of the turnbuckle, waiting for Buff to finish. He goes on for an age, dissing the fans in Boston, WCW, his opponents later on tonight at Boston Brawl (Ray Traylor and Steve McMichael), Ric Flair, the luchadores, Hector Garza and even the referee. Bad move, because as soon as Buff is finished his tirade, he hands over the microphone to Penzer and the referee calls for the bell. Buff begins to turn round as Garza stands up on the top turnbuckle and launches himself off! FLYING BODY PRESS! Buff's shoulders are down and the ref counts! 1! 2! 3! Garza pulls off an amazing upset and leaps out of the ring, as Bagwell goes ballistic at being embarassed!
Winner - Hector Garza via Pinfall @ 0:05
*Commercial Break*
It's time to have a look at Savage/Luger from Souled Out. After Luger chased Savage around the ring, Savage scarpers inside and hits an eye poke, taking over control, and taking Luger down with a top-rope axehandle. One of the main stories here is Liz's reluctance to interfere against Luger. Kicks and punches from Savage to Luger's midsection, constantly beating him down every time he tries to get up. Savage bounces Luger's head off the turnbuckle and punches away to his head. Luger blocks a haymaker, but Savage regains control with a shoulder block. Savage charges into the corner and gets a boot to the face, allowing Luger to take over. Luger punches away at the head and chest of Savage, causing the Macho Man to roll violently trying to get an opening, but Luger delivers quick elbows to Savage. Savage comes back with a lowblow. The action goes into the crowd, as they brawl amongst the fans. Back in the ring, and Luger starts his series of clotheslines before hitting the big forearm, and Scott Hall comes down with a steel chair. Luger hits the powerslam on Savage as Kevin Nash appears to stop Hall from interfering. Hall climbs onto the apron, but Luger shoves Savage into Hall, before locking Savage in THE TORTURE RACK for the victory. Scott Hudson goes on to hype up the main event for Boston Brawl and the fact that the Mega Powers, Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage, will be joining forces to take on the team of Sting and Lex Luger. Dusty says this is a dream match for every fan of tag team wrestling, two tag teams who embody two different generations clashing together here in Boston tonight on Internet Pay-Per-View! Scott takes us through how to view and order Boston Brawl, showing us the website, where to click, how much it is and what you need to order. He also tells us that once you've ordered the event, all you need to do is log on just as Saturday Night finishes.
6. GREG VALENTINE VS. VINCENT
On the subject of ordering Boston Brawl, I can't possibly imagine how much of a headache trying to watch a WCW live stream on dial-up would be, but it can't be as painful as this next match. I think Vincent has been watching too many Malenko/Benoit tapes, because this match is their attempt at a submission epic. Pinfalls are legal, but both guys are looking for the tapout victory. Vincent genuinely spends about three minutes working over Greg Valentine's shoulders. Greg Valentine locks in the figure-four leglock and Vincent writhes, before he is able to shove him away and cradle him for a nearfall. Vincent actually uses an Indian Death Lock later on! Who has ever actually won a match with an Indian Death Lock past 1959? They brawl outside the ring for a while and Valentine backdrops out of an attempted piledriver. A drunk man three rows from the front has actually fallen asleep. Vincent mercifully ends the match with the only move in wrestling that is a less-credible match-ending submission than the Indian Death Lock, the armbar! Greg Valentine actually taps out to an armbar! Who does that? Really? This lasted nine minutes. NINE MINUTES. We could have had ten Goldberg matches instead of this! An absolute waste of everyone's finite existence.
Winner - Vincent via Submission @ 9:01
*Commercial Break*
We're in the ring with Mean Gene as he introduces Konnan who, after promising an apology on Nitro and Thunder and not delivering, has been given a mandate by WCW backroom staff that he must apologise to Eddie and Vickie Guerrero for what happened last week. Hudson mentions that Konnan is annoyed that everyone is focusing on what happened on Saturday Night, when he went on to defeat Ray Traylor at Souled Out later that night. Eddie and Vickie make their way out, Vickie's clearly still shaken up about the whole ordeal. Mean Gene asks him about what happened last week and K-Dawg says what he said last week, she shouldn't have been out there. Vickie looks upset. Mean Gene says that while that may be the case, Konnan should act the bigger man and apologise anyway. Eddie grabs the mic and says that, despite him being WCW and Konnan being nWo, he still sees him as a great friend who has helped him through a lot of tough times. Eddie says he doesn't want to throw away those good memories for nothing and asks Konnan if he can just accept what happened, apologise to Vickie for the distress caused and then both of them can move on still good friends. Konnan says he feels that he is being targeted for something that wasn't his fault. Eddie replies that he understands and just wants to put the whole thing behind him, before extending his hand. Konnan hesitates to accept the handshake but after a few moments, he finally shakes the hand and the two of them hug. Eddie turns to pull away... But Konnan still has his hand gripped tight! LOWBLOW FROM KONNAN TO EDDIE! Cradle DDT from K-Dawg! The crowd goes mad as Konnan begins to shout and scream at Vickie saying that this is what happens when fans continue to disrespect the nWo and if Vickie, Eddie or anyone else for that matter takes offence to that, they'll have to answer to the nWo. Konnan grabs Eddie's leg... TEQUILA SUNRISE! Mean Gene flees as referees and security try to make their way down, only for Buff, Norton, Vincent and the Outsiders to intercept them on the ramp. Konnan keeps the move locked in as Eddie cries in agony and Vickie begs him to stop. A good minute or so passes until security can finally get to the ring and try and break the hold. Konnan finally relents nearly 2 minutes after initially locking the hold in. Konnan screams that he apologises for no man and that Eddie is not his friend as K-Dawg and the rest of the nWo leave the scene.
7. CHRIS BENOIT VS. MORTIS
As Benoit makes his way down to the ring, Hudson brings up Chris Benoit's involvement in the Television title 3-way dance at Souled Out with Booker T and Rick Martel. The contest was meant to be one-fall, however Booker T would eventually find himself in the Quebec Crab at the hands of Martel. Benoit decided to save the match for himself and locked on a Crossface at the same time. Booker T can't survive being racked by both submission holds at the same time and taps. But who's the champion? The referee calls an audible and decides the match will continue one-on-one, Martel vs. Benoit for the title. We have an exciting five minute passage with both men attempting finishers only to have them reversed. Martel eventually locks in the Quebec Crab again, but Benoit fights out of it, rolls him up and turns it into a Crossface! Martel reaches the ropes and forces a break. Another few moments follow with Benoit going up top for a diving headbutt, but Martel recovers and hits a Superplex! Martel then goes for the Quebec Crab and Benoit has no option but to tap. Martel is the Television champion! Hudson says that there is a lot of consternation in the back about whether the match should have been restarted or deemed a draw and replayed. Dusty believes the referee made the right call, but JJ Dillon doesn't seem to think that is the case. Hudson says that, regardless of what anyone thinks, Martel is the TV champ and will not be stripped of the title. However, Benoit is lobbying for another shot at the gold. It won't be at Boston Brawl though, because Martel will face Mike Rotunda in his first defence later tonight. Instead, Benoit is stuck facing Mortis on the pre-show. We begin with a tie-up, which Benoit wins, sending Mortis into a corner, where he hits him with a series of knife-edge chops. Mortis is able to escape, using an eye-rake and then an Irish whip. However, Benoit is able to reverse it, hitting Mortis with an elbow when he bounces back. Benoit plants him with a snap suplex, before putting the boot into him and landing another snap suplex. Mortis tries desperately to fight back with some wild shots, before eventually getting a waistlock, but Benoit switches behind him... GERMAN SUPLEX! He keeps a hold of Mortis... GERMAN SUPLEX #2! He still holds on... GERMAN SUPLEX #3! Benoit goes for an Irish whip, but Mortis reverses it, looking for a superkick, but Benoit grabs hold of the leg and takes him down with a Dragon legwhip! It's only a matter of seconds before Benoit has the Crippler Crossface locked in, forcing Mortis to tap.
Winner - Chris Benoit via Submission @ 1:25
Dusty and Hudson talk about another big talking point from Souled Out, that is the shocking outcome to the Tag title match between the Outsiders and the Steiners. We see Scott and Rick in the ring, barking when Scott nails Rick from behind! Scott Steiner has turned on his brother Rick and joined the nWo! Scott powerbombs Rick and Hall goes for the pin, but Rick just won't die. He fights back and tries to take on all three of them, but it's no use. Hall eventually takes Rick down with the Outsider's Edge, as Scott mocks his brother. Scott hands the belts to the Outsiders, hugs them and leaves with them. We see reaction from DDP, Booker T and Ric Flair. On Nitro, Mean Gene stops Rick Steiner and asks his feelings about last night. How the hell do you think he's feeling? Geezo, Gene! We soon find out how Rick is feeling as he is in action against Vincent. Rick just beats the shite out of Vincent with a load of stiff shots that will really hurt in the morning. Rick wins with a bulldog from the top rope and pins him with his knee on his chest. He then bites Vincent. In the main event, Luger challenges Scott Steiner, who attacks Luger from behind and gives him a belly-to-back suplex. Scott is boasting a new blonde hairstyle and goatee. Luger is in control, until Scott Hall runs in. Rick Steiner appears and has a face-to-face confrontation with his brother, before Kevin Nash attacks him and the rest of the nWo hold him in place for Scott Steiner. Suddenly, HARLEM HEAT appear at the top of the ramp! Stevie Ray has returned from injury with his brother Booker T and they both go straight for the Outsiders in the ring. More WCW mid-carders (Benoit, Barbarian etc.) come out to even up the fight, but the nWo still hold down the fort UNTIL STING DROPS OUT OF THE CEILING! He turns the tide and fends off the nWo, Scorpion Death Dropping Hall and Stinger Splashing Hogan, who Savage pulls out of the ring. Back at the announcer's desk, Dusty says he can't believe that Scott Steiner would betray his brother like that after all they've been through. Hudson mentions that at Boston Brawl tonight, Rick Steiner and Harlem Heat will take on Scott Steiner and the Outsiders in a six-man tag match before running down the rest of the card:

*Commercial Break*
We return from commercial as La Parka struts for the crowd and treats us to a The Thinker pose. Scott Hudson mentions that this will be the last we will see of La Parka for a while, as he will be taking a leave of absence for the next month or two in order to shoot his upcoming Lucha movie debut "La Parka vs. The Tijuana Vampire", which will see the Skeleton battling head-on with supernatural forces, with his trusty chair in hand. The announcers also mention that Silver King was in action at Souled Out, teaming with Lizmark Jr. and Chavo Guerrero, Jr. against Rey Mysterio, Psychosis and El Dandy. We see some highlights including Lizmark whipping Psicosis into the corner then somehow walking up him and back-flipping off him. There's a load of dives to the outside with Lizmark wiping everyone out with a moonsault to the floor. The match's final moments sees Lizmark, Silver, Rey and Dandy hurl themselves to the floor with Chavo hitting a spinning tornado DDT on Psicosis for the win.
8. LA PARKA/CICLOPE/SUPER CALO vs. VILLANO IV/VILLANO V/SILVER KING
We begin with Villano V hitting Ciclope with a big suplex, before tagging in his brother IV for a double kneedrop on Ciclope. La Parka tries to get involved, but the referee's not having it. Villano IV hits Ciclope with an elbowdrop and poses for the crowd, who aren't very pleased. As this is happening, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Syxx make their way out to the announcers' desk. IV locks in a hammerlock, but Ciclope escapes. Villano V enters and the two brothers hit Ciclope with a double clothesline, much to the chagrin of La Parka who tries in vain to interfere again. However, after a Villano IV belly-to-belly, Ciclope hits an elbow strike off an Irish whip and tags in La Parka. Villano is tagged and catches the fired-up La Parka with a powerslam for a two-count. Nash says that it was nice of the manager in the construction yard to give Ciclope the time off for this match. Scott Hall has a cocktail in his hand. Syxx asks Dusty and Scott if these guys have all their immigration papers in check. La Parka hits an Asai moonsault bodyblock for a two-count. La Parka follows up a spinning headscissors with a clothesline that is countered into a crucifix pin attempt, which only gets a one. Silver King's in and Nash refers to him as Burger King from here on to the end bell. Hall asks where he got the cowboy hat, Nash says he should try the thrift store. Silver King sees a spinning backbreaker countered into a cradle for a two-count. Oddly, La Parka hits a powerslam and only gets a one count. Silver King tags out to Villano V and they hit a double bodyslam on Parka. La Parka hits a spinning leg lariat on V, and tags out to Super Calo. Scott Hall shouts at security to get him another drink. Nash says he saw the Villano family album recently and he couldn't tell who was who because they were all in masks. V spinebusters Calo and tags to IV. Super Calo hits a top rope hurricanrana on Villano IV. Nash tells us about how he invented that move and talks a bit about his high-flying heritage, referring to the Asai Moonsault as the Oz Moonsault and regaling the time Vinnie Vegas taught Mil Mascaras how to suicide dive to the outside. Villano tries to rip Calo's mask off unsuccessfully. Silver King hits a low blow. Ace Crusher from Villano IV. 1! 2! 3!
Winners - Villano IV, Villano V and Silver King via Pinfall @ 11:20
After the match, Nash, Hall and Syxx get bored, enter the ring and attack everyone. Nash jackknifes Ciclope, Silver King and Super Calo. Hall and Syxx take out the Villanos. La Parka stands tall with his chair in hand, but Nash clubs him from behind and takes him out. Hall and Syxx hold La Parka as Nash smashes him in the head with his chair. The nWo leave, happy with the carnage they have brought.
