Missing his initial target, Jim Cornette slammed Jeff Jarrett over the head with his tennis racket, knocking the NWA North American Champion out cold! From there Ken Shamrock applied the ankle-lock submission and earned the victory when Jarrett was unable to respond to the official. Following the match, a disgruntled Jarrett told Michael Cole, "Maybe it's time Cornette and I went our separate ways."
Attempting to send a message to the Jackyl, Recon and Sniper refused to tag Kurrgan into their six-man tag match with the DOA. After having seen enough, the seven-foot monster grabbed Recon and forced a tag. Withstanding a double- team from Skull and 8-Ball, Kurrgan was able to apply the 'Paralyzer' and record the pin. Following the match, Jackyl confronted Recon and Sniper about their refusal to recognize Kurrgan. After a brief encounter, Sniper tried to strike the leader but Kurrgan was there to stop him. The monster put his mutinous brethren in the 'Paralyzer' and carried him back to the locker room.
Wanting to prove to the world how 'intelligent' he was, Jim Cornette tricked Taka Michinoku into signing a contract to face Barry Windham. After Taka was sent hard to the canvas with a lariat, the lights dimmed, and Kane appeared! The gigantic brother of the Undertaker destroyed the Light Heavyweight with a choke-slam and a Tombstone Piledriver. Paul Bearer grabbed the microphone to challenge Stone Cold Steve Austin to meet with Kane face-to-face next Monday night on RAW IS WAR!
Displaying his version of the 'American Dream,' the Artist Formerly Known as Goldust played the role of 'Dusty-Dust' last night when he dressed like his father, Dusty Rhodes! Although thoroughly entertaining, Dusty-Dust came out a loser, when Bradshaw pulverized him with a lariat to get the three count.
Hoping to avenge the loss suffered by Faarooq on RAW Saturday night, The Rock took on Steve Blackman. The martial arts expert remained undefeated, when D'Lo 'accidentally' overthrew a set of nunchucks into Blackman's hands. The Anneville, PA native hit the Intercontinental Champion over the back with them and rolled him up for the win in a non-title match. Twice during the contest, The Rock had Blackman pinned, but the official had to stop the count because Faarooq jumped on the ring apron.
Taking control of his Federation, Commissioner Slaughter replaced Cornette's appointed NWA official with a WWF one for the NWA Tag Team Title match between the Headbangers and the Rock N' Roll Express. Thrasher was in command when he went off the ropes to deliver an elbow to Ricky who was laid out on the canvas. Looking to 'help' his team, Cornette wound up with the racket and hit Thrasher across the back, knocking him down-right on top of Ricky for the three count! The Headbangers are the new NWA Tag Team Champions!
Owen Hart successfully defended his European Title over Marc Mero. As Marvelous Marc was locked in the Sharpshooter, the official called for the bell, disqualifying Mero for attacking him moments earlier. Following the match, Luna stormed the ring to reach Sable. The two incensed females had to be restrained by their male counterparts. Seeing that the Artist Formerly Known as Goldust helped to protect Sable while he was on the ground, Mero became enraged and attacked the superstar he had been teaming with. The feud between these two women has now apparently escalated into a four-person melee!
