Claiming all the problems between himself and Recon were cleared up, the Jackyl sat ringside as Sniper took on Ken Shamrock. The Truth Commission member became the latest victim of the ankle-lock submission, earning the World's Most Dangerous Man another victory. Disgraced with his pupils' failure, the Jackyl stormed the ring to confront Sniper. Reminiscent of his in-ring 'meeting' with Recon a few weeks ago, the maniacal leader walloped Sniper with an open hand to the face. Storming back into the locker room, an irate Sniper told the world that he would no longer sit by in silence as the Jackyl does all the talking!
Fearing that a Federation official would be prejudiced, Jim Cornette insisted that an NWA referee be assigned to preside over the NWA Tag Team Championship match between the Headbangers and the Rock N' Roll Express, meaning NWA rules were in effect. It turned out to be none other than legendary NWA referee TOMMY YOUNG! After connecting with the "Stage Dive," Thrasher covered Ricky for the three count. Attempting to get in the ring to avoid the loss, Robert was stopped by Mosh who threw him over the top rope before the official finished his count---a definite disqualification in the NWA. Thanks to a technicality, Ricky and Robert retained the NWA Tag Team titles, but for how long? They face the Headbangers in a re-match tonight on RAW IS WAR!
In a superb technical wrestling match, Owen Hart defended his European Title against Jeff Jarrett. After connecting with a missile drop kick off the top rope, the Black Hart locked Jarrett in the Sharpshooter until Cornette came in with the tennis racquet. Failing to connect with Hart, Cornette was an easy victim in the ring and Hart locked the Louisville Lip in the Sharpshooter!
Looking more Michael "PS" Hayes than Dok Hendrix, the former Freebird came out to address the crowd, but was confronted by Kane! The younger brother of the Undertaker welcomed Dok to Dallas, Texas, by dropping him to the canvas with a devastating Tombstone Piledriver!
In Light Heavyweight tag team action, Taka Michinoku and Aguilla defeated the team of Pirata Morgan and Brian Christopher. Taka connected with the Michinoku Driver after Morgan missed with an elbow off the top rope.
Before Faarooq locked up against Steve Blackman, "The Rock" presented the rest of the Nation with gifts to show his appreciation. Commenting that everyone wants to be like "The Rock", the Intercontinental Champion distributed solid gold Rolex watches to Kama, D'Lo and Mark Henry. Recognizing that Faarooq was the one and only leader of the Nation, Maivia wanted to give him a very special present�a picture of "The Rock"! The former Florida State football standout was disgusted with Rocky's display of selfishness and the two got into an argument during the match, which lead to a Blackman victory. As Faarooq was arguing with Maivia, the undefeated martial arts expert came from behind and rolled Faarooq up for the three count.
Coming to the ring without the lovely Sable, Marvelous Marc Mero teamed up with the Artist Formerly Known as Goldust to take on Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie. Ignoring Mero's 'orders,' Sable appeared ringside anyway during the match and Luna immediately provoked Sable by destroying a bouquet of flowers that a secret admirer sent to her earlier in the night. Helping Marvelous Marc try to contain the enraged women, the official had his back turned to the action when Cactus clobbered Goldust over the head with a steel chair, enabling Chainsaw to record the pin. Following the match, Mero, Goldust and a handful of Federation officials had to hold these two ladies back from each other. If, and when, these two get at each other---it is not going to be pretty!
