Match #1
Frankie Lancaster vs. Crowbar w/Daffney
Crowbar and Lancaster tie-up and Crowbar gets behind Lancaster. Lancaster attempts a takeover to escape, but Crowbar manages a single leg trip. Lancaster succeeds with another takeover and gets Crowbar with an armbar, but he locks on Lancaster with Headscissors to escape. An attempt by Lancaster to get out with a side-headlock is prevented by Daffney, and Crowbar whips Lancaster across the ring into a corner. Lancaster tries a shoulder-block on Crowbar to regain some momentum, but the insane one isnt having any and Lancaster eats the mat of the ring following a hip toss. Crowbar gets Lancaster in a wristlock before he manages to get out with a hip-toss of his own that sends Crowbar into a corner.
Lancaster quickly attempts to follow up with a big boot to the skull of Crowbar, but Daffney pulls Crowbar out of the way, leaving an over-extended Lancaster to fall to a roll-up that only gets a two. Crowbar hits Lancaster with a quick elbow drop before trying again, also getting a two in his second attempt at a pin. Lancaster manages to get to his feet and hit a big stiff-looking lariat on Crowbar to attempt a pin of his own that fails at one, and a float over DDT attempt fails when Crowbar fights out of it, with Lancaster landing badly on his knee. Crowbar hit Lancaster with a jawbreaker before following it up with a Mindbender to get the one, two, three.
Winner via Pinfall: Crowbar
Match #2
Elix Skipper and Mark Jindrak vs. Power Company (Dave and Dean Power)
Elix Skipper starts off with Dave Power, getting worked over by the bigger man for a short period of time before he rallies back with a big drop-kick. Power attempts a lariat that is ducked by Skipper, who instead hits a cross-body to attempt a pin, only getting a two-count before Power kicked out. Skipper places a Hammerlock on Power, but Dave elbows out and manages to hit a scoop slam before tagging in his brother who gets a big right hook from Skipper. Skipper gets Dean in a wristlock and tags in Jindrak who comes off the ring corner with a dropkick to the skull of Power to get a two-count afterwards. He tries for a second pin but only gets two again, and Skipper tags himself back in and utilizes another wrist-lock, and despite Powers best attempts, Skipper remains firmly in control of the match.
Or at least, he does until Dave trips him up, allowing Dean to regain control and tag his brother in for a double team sledge to the small of Skippers back. Dave then hits a snap suplex that only nets him a two-count, frustrating the brawler to the point where he blatantly chokes Skipper in front of the referee, earning him a warning. Jindrak attempts to enter, but the referee and Dave ward him off, allowing Dean to choke him safely without reprimand.
Both of the Power Company then perform a double beatdown on Skipper after Dean tagged back in, which was followed by another quick tag to Dave who came off the top rope with a lariat while Dean timed it with a powerbomb. Skipper gets covered only for two as he kicks out again, and manages to get into his corner to tag in Jindrak who comes in to clean house, going old-school with the double coconut crush and tagging in Skipper again, who hits a huge missile dropkick on both opposing men and manages to land on his feet safely. Jindrak hits a springboard diving lariat on the second Power while Skipper covers the legal man for the victory.
Winners via Pinfall: Elix Skipper and Mark Jindrak
Match #3
Disco Inferno vs. Barry Horowitz
Horowitz begins the match by trash-talking the jovial Disco Inferno, before the two men tie-up. Horowitz uses the hair to stop a reversal of his armbar, and a following tie-up sees a side headlock from Horowitz. Disco whips out of the side-headlock and gets shoulder-blocked down once and again. This is repeated with Disco using the side-headlock and getting the shoulder-block on Horowitz when he whips out. Both men clearly more wary of each other, though Inferno less so as he comes off the ropes into a hip-toss.
Inferno gets up to see Horowitz offering him a hand. Taking the hand, he suckers him into a modified standing kick that sends Horowitz reeling into a corner, where Inferno sets to working on him with kicks to the chest and abdomen areas. Disco then hits an inverted atomic drop, a side Russian leg sweep and then a elbow drop in short order to get a two-count for an attempted pin.
Clearly frustrated, Disco begins choking Horowitz on the rope, forcing the referee to break them up, but Horowitz sneaks in a punch with his right before Disco locks in a wristlock. Barry tries a sucker-punch, but Disco blocks it, and tries to whip him to the opposite corner, but nobody is home as Horowitz pulls off a Slingshot belly to back that is followed by a Backbreaker that only gets Horowitz a two. He then pulls off a three quarter nelson to an inside cradle for two, and decides submission may be the way to go, as he tries to lock on a type of Texas cloverleaf, but fails.
Horowitz connects with a European uppercut, but Disco comes back with a few rights of his own to regain momentum. Momentum that is swiftly squandered as a whip to the corner is reversed by Horowitz who comes out into a Lariat from Disco for a two-count. Disco tries a big back elbow for another two, and when that fails, goes off the ropes with a swinging neckbreaker, that also gets him another two.
Disco gives him an Irish whip which is followed by a Hip-toss that is blocked by Horowitz who hits a double over hook suplex to get the pin.

We return to a big discussion of Benoit and DDP coming up at Superbrawl. We get a replay of Booker T taking on Shane Douglas this last week on Nitro. We also see Ric Flair taking his stance on Shane Douglas from Thunder. We then move into the attacks of The Revolution against Harlem Heat and their recent recruitment of the Haas Brothers. Finally, we mention the new match made for Super Brawl, between La Parka and Chavo Guerrero for the WCW Cruiserweight Championship.
Match #4
Buzzkill vs. Bobby Eaton
Before Buzzkill and Eaton lock up, Buzzkill offers a handshake that Eaton refuses. The two men tie up, and Eaton gets a clean break in the corner. A wristlock from Eaton is reversed by Buzzkill, who is pulled by Eaton into the corner again, but this time takes the cheap shot as payback. Buzzkill reverses a whip into the corner, Eaton bounces out into a back body drop that stumbles Buzzkill only for a moment before he gets a standing dropkick and a cover for two. Buzzkill tries an Armbar, but Eaton fights out and hits a standing abdominal stretch. Buzzkill manages an Armdrag takeover, but a right hand from Eaton sends Buzzkill outside into the guardrail. Eaton goes for a standing suplex, Buzzkill escapes and shoves Eaton into the post before bringing him back inside the ring, where he runs Eaton into the ropes, but Eaton holds on and Buzzkill bounces off in a failed dropkick. Eaton capitalizes on this mistake with the Alabama Jam (diving leg drop) to get the victory.
Winner via Pinfall: Bobby Eaton
Match #5
Los Villanos vs. the Harris Brothers
This is a relatively stale match between the two teams of brothers. Los Villanos dominate the match-up for the most part, with only the intervention of the illegal Harris breaking up pins prolonging the match. The match ends with a double dropkick to the skull of Don Harris, who is promptly pinned by one of the Villanos.
Winners via Pinfall: Los Villanos
Match #6
The Mamalukes w/ Tony Marinara vs. Idol and Lane
The Mamalukes started things off with a sneak attack as Lane and Idol got out of their gear, initiating a double team beat-down on Idol to start. The referee managed to get Vito and Lane to their respective corners so that Johnny Stamboli and Idol could start the actual match. Except Idol immediately tags in Lane, who drills Johnny from behind and covers for a quick two count. Idol gets tagged back in and does a jumping knee lift, as their game is apparent: to keep Johnny away from potential help and wear him down enough for a pin.
Lane tags back in to follow an Idol back elbow with a springboard back elbow of his own, and attempts a cover for two again, and their plan goes awry as Tony Marinara grabs Lane long enough to allow big Vito to tag him with a big right hook. Lane stumbles around into a spinning heel kick from Johnny and a cover for two and decides to tag in the fresher Vito, who throws a few rights on Lane before biting his forehead.
Tag to Johnny the Bull happens and the Mamalukes hit a double team elbow and spinning neckbreaker combo for two before Vito tags back in with their double hip toss and double slam move. Idol is now trying to get in as the double team beatdown continues, but the referee holds him back as Idol and Lanes plan is reversed against them by the bigger men in Vito and Johnny, the latter of gets a two after a diving lariat and tags in Vito again. Lane manages an Irish whip and a sunset flip, but a big standing kick from Vito returns control to the Mamalukes, and Vito starts chopping Lane in the corner as Vampiro and Norman Smiley appear from the entrance to watch the ongoing match.
Back in the ring Vitro misses a corner charge letting Lane make the hot tag to Idol, who tries to go in to clean house, getting a powerslam Vito for two before Johnny does a missile dropkick that sends Idol into a choke-slam from Vito. Lane rushes the ring to do some damage, but a bitch slap from Vito sends him flying out of the ring, where Marinara puts the boots to him. Vito picks up Lane to demonstrate the new double-team finisher of the Mamalukes. Called Sleeping with the Fishes, Vito performs a powerbomb on Lane that is timed perfectly with a double knee backbreaker that gets them the victory.
Winners via Pinfall: The Mamalukes
As soon as the bell rings signifying the victory of the Mamalukes, Norman Smiley and Vampiro hit the ring with their belts, nailing both Vito and Johnny in the back of the head with the titles before superkicking their manager Tony Marinara entering to attempt a save. To the cheers of the crowd, Vampiro and Norman Smiley power-bombed both men onto the mat before leaving the ring with their belts held high.
Match #8
Shark Boy vs. La Parka
La Parka started things off with a show of strength that sent Shark Boy flying across the ring, and La Parka follows it up with a baseball slide connecting to the forehead of Shark Boy. Shark Boy gets whipped across the ring into the opposing the corner, and an attempted clothesline by La Parka gets blocked when Shark Boy does a sudden standing side-kick that rattles the brains of the Cruiserweight Champion. Sharky connects with a side headlock that La Parka gets out of with a Slingshot plancha, but Sharky comes back with the old bite the ass attack and proceeds to mock La Parkas strut as the Champion is rolling around the ring in obviously exaggerated pain.
La Parka then gets up, serious for the moment, and connects with a big avalanche clothesline and follows it up with a delayed butterfly slam. La Parka then connects with the La Parkinator (Corkscrew Moonsault) to get a two count, and Shark Boy then elbows his way out, but La Parka retakes control with a dropkick. La Parka covers for two again, and follows up with an Irish whip and charges in with a boot that nearly kicks Shark Boys head off. La Parka then grabs Shark Boy and hits him with the Skull-bomb (Sunset-flip power-bomb) to gain the victory ahead of his title defense against Chavo Guerrero.
Winner via Pinfall: La Parka
