00:00:00Welcome live to WCW Monday Nitro.

00:00:29We are in Casper, Wyoming for two solid hours of Pro Wrestling's number one weekly television

00:00:45program.

00:00:46Monday Nitro here on TNT.

00:00:47Hi, everyone.

00:00:48From the great American West, we welcome you to Nitro.

00:00:49Tony Schiavone along with living legend, Larry Sabisco.

00:00:50This has to be considered a very dark day in the annals of World Championship Wrestling.

00:01:02Two days removed from Hulk Hogan becoming the WCW World Heavyweight Champion.

00:01:08Two days removed from Hulk Hogan desecrating the prestigious gold belt that's been the

00:01:13symbol of World Championship Wrestling for many, many years.

00:01:17Later on in this telecast, we will show you the footage, the startling revealing footage

00:01:22of what happened at Hogwild and Sturgis this past Saturday, Larry.

00:01:26Well, as you can tell by my choice of garb tonight, it reflects the mood.

00:01:30It is a dark day in WCW.

00:01:33I am extremely disappointed in the athletes, in the Dungeon of Doom, in the Four Horsemen.

00:01:39When Hall and Nash, when they hit the ring against the Giant, where was the so-called

00:01:44Brotherhood of WCW that was going to stand up against the New World Order?

00:01:48Where was Sting and Lex Luger?

00:01:51Sting and Lex Luger.

00:01:52We want to show you some of what went down, had their own problems.

00:01:55Take a look.

00:01:56It was a tremendous crowd.

00:01:57Bikers, 250,000 bikers from all over the world came to Sturgis and came to see World Championship

00:02:03Wrestling.

00:02:04The Outsiders in tag team action, Hall and Nash going up against Sting and Lex Luger

00:02:09from this past Saturday.

00:02:10It was obvious the Outsiders did have a plan.

00:02:14We have a lot of questions, a lot of controversy.

00:02:15Luger had Hall in the rag, Sting had Nash in the Scorpion Death Lock.

00:02:19Inadvertently, Nick Patrick, the referee, was hit.

00:02:22Now, here are the questions.

00:02:23Did Nick Patrick, in retaliation, hit Luger behind the knee?

00:02:24Was it in retaliation or was it maybe an accident?

00:02:25And what about the count?

00:02:26Obviously, to me, it was a very quick count from Nick Patrick, one, two, three.

00:02:27He obviously was hurt, but he raised the hand of the Outsiders in victory.

00:02:28And I have to say, it was a very quick count.

00:02:29And I have to say, it was a very quick count.

00:02:30And I have to say, it was a very quick count.

00:04:17I don't know if the count was fast.

00:04:18I don't know if the count was fast.

00:04:46And here we go, Larry.

00:04:48We got a mass of humanity out there, Tony.

00:04:50This match, definitely hard to come up with a strategy,

00:04:53especially when you got the likes of the Taskmaster in the corner.

00:04:57Look at the Barbarian and Ming, just huge individuals, very mean.

00:05:02Their ancestors weren't exactly vegetarians.

00:05:05Uh-oh, right there, Jimmy Hardhead.

00:05:07Uh-oh, Big Bubba do something.

00:05:08Look at Hugh, Hugh Morris took advantage of it.

00:05:10High voltage, got caught unplugged.

00:05:12No question about it.

00:05:13Randy, doesn't do it, but the heavyweight champion, Hugh Morris,

00:05:18big and powerful.

00:05:19As we said, three title matches for you tonight.

00:05:23During the second hour, Ric Flair defends the US heavyweight title

00:05:27against the macho man, Randy Savage.

00:05:29In addition, ladies and gentlemen, Rey Mysterio Jr., Ultimo Dragon,

00:05:34in a return match cruiserweight title, Steinders Harlem Heat World Tag Team

00:05:38title.

00:05:39That is all tonight.

00:05:40Part of Nitro Live from the great state of Wyoming.

00:05:44And I mean, it didn't take long for the faces of fear to get in here, Larry.

00:05:48Now, this could break down, you know, very, very rapidly.

00:05:51Again, you got a very demented man standing

00:05:54in the corner named Kevin Sullivan.

00:05:56And look at the answer to that age-old question.

00:05:59There's the beef, Barbarian and Ming in there, but rough and ready.

00:06:02You got the veteran, Dick Slater.

00:06:04He's going to go in there and try to break it up, and he got it.

00:06:08Dick Slater in the back of the head of the Barbarian.

00:06:11And the Barbarian into the wrong corner.

00:06:13Here goes Mike Enos of the team of rough and ready.

00:06:15Fans want to let you know that we will show you the footage from Hog Wild

00:06:19in case you missed it.

00:06:21Also let you know that you can call your local cable system.

00:06:24The encore presentation will air the entire week this week.

00:06:28And you can see for yourself the lowest point in the history of our sport.

00:06:32No question.

00:06:33Here's the lateral press.

00:06:34One, two.

00:06:35The desecration of the belt. What Hulk Hogan did.

00:06:39Some revealing footage of how he turned his back on his longtime friend once and

00:06:43for all, and I would say for good.

00:06:45In addition, I'll show you some of the moments of that match.

00:06:49Here's a scoop slam, and down they go.

00:06:52Right to the corner goes Rage of high voltage.

00:06:56Uh-oh.

00:06:57Taskmaster, head of steam.

00:07:00He is tied in the tree of woe.

00:07:02Kevin Sullivan, once again, is going to nail Slater.

00:07:06Backhand on Chaos.

00:07:07He's out there and he's taking on everybody.

00:07:09Well, he caught Slater sleeping, but Slater's not going to take it.

00:07:12He came in there.

00:07:13Well, this thing's getting ready to break down right now.

00:07:15But you know, the more I think about Hog Wild, the reason I think the new world

00:07:18owner got away with what they did was because of what I talked about,

00:07:21the lack of trust.

00:07:22I still don't believe that guys here trust anybody.

00:07:26And you can't blame them.

00:07:27You can't trust anybody.

00:07:29Well, I think you're up on top now.

00:07:31Whoa.

00:07:31Oh.

00:07:34Ming moved out of the way.

00:07:35Oh.

00:07:36Kicked to the side of the head of Rage.

00:07:38Lateral press, one, two, three.

00:07:45The match is over.

00:07:48Well, it didn't take the Dungeon of Doom long either.

00:07:51Again, with the devious Kevin Sullivan and the gigantic mental capacity

00:07:56of Jimmy Hart, hard to beat the Dungeon of Doom.

00:08:00Look at this.

00:08:02That's what Rough and Ready think of their partners.

00:08:04Yes, sir.

00:08:05Rough and Ready taking their own measure of high voltage here,

00:08:08slapping Rage around.

00:08:10Well, Slater has no tolerance for incompetence.

00:08:14These two guys are just too neophytic to get in the ring with Dick Slater.

00:08:20There is no question about that.

00:08:21Winners, the Dungeon of Doom off and running.

00:08:24Ladies and gentlemen, we must take a break.

00:08:26Don't forget, three title matches and the footage

00:08:29still to come from Hog Wild.

00:08:31Stay with us on Nitro, live from Casper, Wyoming.

00:08:41Welcome back, everyone.

00:08:42As you can see, in the past week, right on hand

00:08:44at the event center in Casper, Wyoming, a big week for World Championship

00:08:47Wrestling.

00:08:47Not only do we have Nitro here tonight, we

00:08:50have the Clash of the Champions on our sister station,

00:08:52TBS, coming up this Thursday, live from Denver, Colorado at 8.05 Eastern time.

00:08:58As you know, it'll be Hulk Hogan and the Nitro Boy,

00:09:00Ric Flair, during that match.

00:09:02We do understand that we are having some guests here at ringside at this time.

00:09:07Sting and Lex Luger are coming out.

00:09:09Well, let's find out where they were when Holland Nash hit the scene here.

00:09:13Let's give them a microphone.

00:09:13Here, Melinda, let me hand those to these two guys.

00:09:15Guys, obviously, you've got something you want to say.

00:09:18Go ahead.

00:09:21We hate to break the rules and bust in here,

00:09:24but we're sick and tired of following the rules.

00:09:26I'm not spending another sleepless night after what happened last night.

00:09:31Isn't that right, Stinger?

00:09:32How about a little challenge here?

00:09:34As a matter of fact, that makes two of us that will not

00:09:37have one more sleepless night.

00:09:40Everybody's talking about a controversy that happened in Sturgis.

00:09:44We don't care about controversy.

00:09:46What we want to do is clear it up right here, right now.

00:09:51Wait a minute.

00:09:52You're making a challenge for right now?

00:09:54Oh, wait a minute.

00:09:56They're in the ring.

00:09:57Well, they're in the ring now, but where were they at Hog Wild when we needed them?

00:10:02They were in the ring at Hog Wild, Larry, against the Outsiders.

00:10:05And now, as you can see in the ring, and the fans are standing here,

00:10:09they want Hog, they want Nash, they want them right now.

00:10:12They got the microphone again.

00:10:13Well, at least that's the manly thing to do.

00:10:16They're pulling them out.

00:10:18They want it tonight on Nitro.

00:10:20Hey, let's do it.

00:10:21I'm ready for it.

00:10:22Well, I'm ready for it.

00:10:23That's what happens when- Go ahead.

00:10:25He has a hard time.

00:10:27If the NWO, if the NWO has any guts,

00:10:32they'll show up to the ring right here, right now.

00:10:39A challenge has been laid down.

00:10:41A challenge has been made by Sting and Lex Luger.

00:10:44There you see the fans, what they feel about it.

00:10:47In the midst of what the NWO did to WCW at Hog Wild,

00:10:53a stain has been made here, Larry.

00:10:54Well, the challenge has been made.

00:10:56The NWO took its best shot at Hog Wild.

00:10:59Let's see, but it was calculated.

00:11:01Let's see if they have the guts.

00:11:03This is a manly thing.

00:11:05I'm proud of this.

00:11:05At least these two guys got the guts to come out and lay out the challenge.

00:11:10I don't smell the NWO yet.

00:11:12Well, let's take a look and see if they're coming out,

00:11:15see if they will answer this challenge.

00:11:17Sting's got the microphone once again.

00:11:20Surprised.

00:11:23Well, neither have I.

00:11:24It comes as no surprise to me.

00:11:26You pick your spots, don't you?

00:11:29It's even two on two right now.

00:11:31Show up.

00:11:31Fans, the only thing I can say, if they don't show up right now,

00:11:35we will continue to try to see if- Go ahead and

00:11:38bring the baseball bats if you want.

00:11:44I still don't smell them coming out yet.

00:11:46Hopefully they will show up within the course of this program.

00:11:50And ladies and gentlemen, we will have more action live on Nitro.

00:11:53The challenge has been made.

00:11:54Come on back with us.

00:11:55Anything can happen, live from Casper, Wyoming.

00:12:22All right, the Renegade and Diamond Dallas to battle.

00:12:42Diamond Dallas, of course, the Battle Bowl champion, the winner of the ring.

00:12:46And he'll put all that on the line against the Renegade here tonight

00:12:50on WCW Monday Nitro.

00:12:52You know, you're talking about Sting and Lex.

00:12:54I think you're approaching it the wrong way.

00:12:56Yes, they're upset about what happened to the belt and what happened to the giant.

00:12:59But they're more upset about what happened in their match.

00:13:02And that's why the challenge was made.

00:13:04Well, of course they are.

00:13:05But again, I think Lex Luger, from what I've seen of the Stills,

00:13:09was a victim of circumstance.

00:13:12Nick Patrick, too.

00:13:14He got belted in the face with Booth and fell over.

00:13:20And I think fell in the wrong spot.

00:13:22Luger and Sting, obviously they feel better.

00:13:25They would have been out here throwing out the challenge.

00:13:26At least I'm proud of them for doing that.

00:13:29Back they go to a corner, Diamond Dallas.

00:13:32Diamond Dallas will be part of the Clash of the Champions coming up this Thursday

00:13:35at 12 on our direct takedown on TBS primetime, 8.05 Eastern time.

00:13:40That won headline by Hulk Hogan and the Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

00:13:44And we invite you to join us live from Denver in the Coliseum.

00:13:48And I tell you, we have seen Diamond Dallas go from literally rags to riches

00:13:54here twice over the past year.

00:13:57But right now, looking better than ever in the ring, Larry.

00:13:59Well, he always was good in the ring.

00:14:01He just had some emotional problems, got tangled up with the wrong female,

00:14:05made a few bad economic choices.

00:14:08A lot of people go from millions of dollars to bankruptcy

00:14:11back to millions of dollars.

00:14:13Diamond Dallas Page went from the gutter to the penthouse.

00:14:16But at least he did it.

00:14:18He did not stay in the gutter.

00:14:20And keep your eye on Diamond Dallas Page, because this guy is smooth

00:14:24when it comes to throwing that diamond cutter on you.

00:14:26And he'll play with this Renegade, try to set him up.

00:14:29Renegade sticks his head in the wrong spot.

00:14:31Diamond Dallas Page will cut it off.

00:14:33We had some phenomenal matches at Hog Wild.

00:14:35One, Rey Mysterio and the Ultimo Dragon for the Cruiserweight Championship.

00:14:39That return match will be held tonight, right here,

00:14:43live on Nitro in the second hour.

00:14:47Look at Renegade trying to get the momentum going.

00:14:50But Diamond Dallas, he's smooth.

00:14:52He just steps outside the rope.

00:14:54Let Nick Patrick slow the momentum down.

00:14:59Side headlock, grinding in, into the ropes.

00:15:05Diamond Dallas goes down hard.

00:15:08Page, we have just got word that we will be hearing

00:15:11kind of a response to the challenge made from the New World

00:15:14Order here on this program a little bit later on.

00:15:17As a matter of fact, we hope to have them in just a few moments or so.

00:15:20Wait, they accepted the challenge?

00:15:22Well, we don't know, but we'll be hearing from the New World Order

00:15:24here on Nitro tonight.

00:15:26And that should be coming up very, very soon.

00:15:28So stay right where you are.

00:15:30I am sure they're going to answer that challenge.

00:15:32Oh!

00:15:33Well, Diamond Dallas answered the Renegade's challenge.

00:15:36Caught him right underneath the chin.

00:15:39Laid him out flat.

00:15:41Look at Page, there you go, just waiting to set him up,

00:15:43trying to get his head in the right place.

00:15:47Stomping on the hand, Diamond Dallas using every technique

00:15:52possible to secure a win here in front of this capacity crowd

00:15:57and all the millions of households watching on around the world.

00:16:00One thing about being in the gutter, you'll do anything not to go back.

00:16:04Renegade kicked out.

00:16:07All right, now we're hearing that right after this match,

00:16:10we are going to hear from the New World Order.

00:16:13And I think the end of this match is very, very soon.

00:16:17Diamond Dallas going to secure a lateral press on that one.

00:16:20One, two, kicked out.

00:16:23Renegade's fighting for his life here.

00:16:25I don't know if it's going to do him any good,

00:16:27maybe just prolonging the agony.

00:16:29But look at Page here, Diamond Dallas.

00:16:31Page just puts that pressure right underneath the chin.

00:16:34A little bit more weight with the chest would be helpful.

00:16:37Crank that neck, there you go.

00:16:41Reverse chin lock applied.

00:16:42Just like you said, the Renegade is really being very game here tonight,

00:16:46fighting Diamond Dallas Page.

00:16:48It's very difficult to go up against someone like Diamond Dallas Page

00:16:51when you are on a roll, when you have the momentum going your way.

00:16:54It's like a winning streak for Diamond Dallas.

00:16:56He is so red hot right now in this sport,

00:16:59but that is not deterring the Renegade at all.

00:17:00He's giving it his all here.

00:17:02Diamond Dallas sends him down to the mat again.

00:17:04You know, it's one thing about being in the gutter that I think instilled

00:17:06in Diamond Dallas Page is the hunger that too many successful guys lose.

00:17:11When you get all the money you need and all the women and all the fame and

00:17:14the glory, the hunger sort of disappears.

00:17:17But being in the gutter, that'll make you hungry for success.

00:17:20And Diamond Dallas, not only is he experienced and knowledgeable,

00:17:24but he's hungry.

00:17:25He's not going back to that gutter.

00:17:27I think the hunger that we saw exemplified by Luverick Sting right before

00:17:32our commercial break when they came out here and they took over Nitro.

00:17:36That could have been more of an embarrassing thing than a hungry thing.

00:17:40I don't think it was embarrassing.

00:17:41I think it was determination.

00:17:43Once again, Luger and Sting came out here determined.

00:17:46They took over Nitro tonight.

00:17:48Not the new world order.

00:17:49They won a match.

00:17:51They won it tonight.

00:17:52We understand we're gonna be hearing a response from the NWO right after this

00:17:57match.

00:17:58And this match, well, from being over here because the Renegades coming back here.

00:18:01Are they gonna come here right to the ring?

00:18:03I don't, I don't, you never know what they're gonna do.

00:18:05I really don't want them out here by me.

00:18:06Well, neither do I.

00:18:08They come out here, I leave.

00:18:10What am I gonna do?

00:18:11Well, I'm gonna stand behind you, I don't know.

00:18:13A roll up from the rope, one, two, up two counts.

00:18:17Diamond Dallas, forearm shot.

00:18:19Renegade got up in the wrong place, led with his head.

00:18:21Diamond got caught off guard there.

00:18:24Can the Renegade keep it going?

00:18:26The gum.

00:18:28Down goes Diamond Dallas, gets clotheslined on, he's wide of gum.

00:18:33Down again he goes.

00:18:36Renegade, sensing he could become the winner of the Battle Bull Ring.

00:18:43Look it, he caught him.

00:18:44Into the Diamond Cutter.

00:18:46Diamond Dallas got him halfway, blocked it.

00:18:48That's hard to change momentum in midstream like that.

00:18:52Diamond did it nicely.

00:18:54That was tremendous, and that is the one, two, three.

00:18:58Oh, man, you know all of a sudden now they act like we're important.

00:19:21Yeah.

00:19:22I can't believe the audacity that these guys have.

00:19:24I mean we're on New World Order time right now.

00:19:27I mean you can make all the challenges you want to boys, but hey, we're in our gear, but we'll do this

00:19:33When we feel ready, I can't figure it out. I can't figure it out

00:19:37We beat him at bash of the beach in a six-man. We did what we say we do at hogwild

00:19:43We beat him and the main thing we accomplished

00:19:46Hulkster

00:19:47Took their belt

00:19:49You notice it's nwo belt now tell these two punks something

00:19:53I heard some whining and crying about Nick Patrick you guys blaming your loss on a referee senior

00:19:59He's a fine referee. Don't blame it on official Nick bad. You lost referee. You lost at hogwild

00:20:05And you want to fight us?

00:20:07We're gonna get to later tonight. That's right. You lose it. Well, you know, I we disagree every once in a while

00:20:13You know, it's okay. You don't have anything to prove, you know, and all of a sudden, you know

00:20:18They didn't want to say anywhere around now. They're calling me calling my agent

00:20:22They're banging on the door. I got tired of getting up and answering the door here a minute ago

00:20:26It's the same old thing now. They want their chance now. They're ready

00:20:31Well, you know if you guys want to have a good workout or something like that

00:20:34Maybe you could have fun with those punks. But the thing is

00:20:39Thing that really tears me up is they haven't figured out who the fourth and fifth guy are

00:20:43I mean, we've given them all the hints

00:20:46No

00:20:49Stay there stay there, but

00:20:51What are they gonna do? I mean, they're not even smart to figure this thing out and

00:20:56Now, you know what this belt? I don't even like to look at this belt

00:21:00It's too heavy. It hurts my shoulder. I'm going through the airport, you know, we really need to talk about a design

00:21:07You know, maybe our own built, you know, we can melt that down. You got that buddy in Tampa, right?

00:21:12The first thing needs to go

00:21:14First thing we need to get rid of is this thing. Is that giant?

00:21:18Cleaned his clock. He's a loser and sting and Luger

00:21:22You losers, too

00:21:24You know

00:21:26Can I can I use your line Hulkster go for it? What you're gonna do?

00:21:30When Hulkamania the Outsiders and the new world order runs wild

00:21:37On you, you know that one's okay, but it's not not fitting the occasion because I mean

00:21:45You know tonight they want you guys to climb there and you got your gear on, you know

00:21:49I was I was arguing with you about that earlier

00:21:52You know, I was really you know

00:21:54I didn't want you guys to wrestle each other and I definitely don't want to wrestle you guys

00:21:57But to get back in the ring was staying and Luger. I think the last few WCW fans

00:22:05might

00:22:06Might just go ahead and dissolve him if you embarrass him again, which we will yeah

00:22:11So maybe what you gotta do is right, you know, I'm really confused now

00:22:16I'm upset about this whole thing

00:22:19Don't call us. We'll call you

00:22:21Absolutely stick around boys call at you know, this Herculean sits pretty nice, but I'd have to get one of these in the house

00:22:29Where's any a birth cake birthday cake left?

00:22:32Have a booty man bring it in

00:22:35God hey the Rust-Oleum doesn't come off either boys

00:22:47We have no idea what it will be it could be at any time

00:22:49But it apparently will be denied live here on Nitro stay with us live from Casper, Wyoming

00:22:55Metro continues ready for this timeout

00:23:05Some great action on hand including the horsemen in an eight-man tag match

00:23:10And you'll see the giant, the former world champion, in action as well

00:23:156.05 Eastern Time. It's the hottest show on the weekends

00:23:20WCW Saturday night

00:23:23We're here on Nitro in front of a capacity crowd at the

00:23:28Event center at Casper, Wyoming you heard moments ago the members of the Outsiders Hall and Nash

00:23:34Hogan thought better of it. They have accepted the challenge sometime tonight. It could be at any time. Keep your set right here

00:23:41We are going to have stinging legs against the Outsiders a special edit match already a gigantic card here on Nitro Larry

00:23:49You know, I was listening to them

00:23:50I'm listening to Hogan Hall and Nash and I'm warning you right now and I'm warning everybody in WCW

00:23:55These guys are playing a great game of human chess. The WCW is lagging behind as proof I have it.

00:24:00Lex, Milger, and Sting better have their focus together tonight. If these guys accepted their challenge, they've got something up their sleeve.

00:24:10Of course they do. As a matter of fact, 4th, 5th man, there obviously was a 4th, maybe 5th man in that room. We could not see him.

00:24:19And who knows what will happen, who knows who will appear here tonight on WCW Monday Nitro.

00:24:25Who's going to be watching the back of Lex Luger and Sting? Dungeon of Doom, you think they care about him?

00:24:32Do you think the Four Horsemen love Sting and Lex Luger?

00:24:37We'll just have to wait and see. Right now, Conan and Jim Powers. Jim Powers being very successful in World Championship Wrestling.

00:24:43The short period of time he's been here. And Conan, as fans saw this past week on WCW Saturday Night Live from Sturgis, South Dakota.

00:24:51Conan, a little change of attitude in the way he approaches the match. He said it's because of the way Hulk Hogan has turned his back on everyone.

00:24:58He's basically going to do the same, I guess. Is Conan like a follower, like a sheep?

00:25:04I don't know. I don't know what's going on. I don't know what Conan is thinking about.

00:25:08If he's talking about getting more aggressive, that's good. Forget Hulk Hogan. Individual, you know, become more aggressive.

00:25:16And Conan, probably after being in WCW, now losing the title he had here. Oh, just got Jim Powers right in the face.

00:25:23But he's probably made his decision that he better get aggressive because everybody else here is.

00:25:28Conan, one of the gentlemen, one of the stellar athletes who'll be competing at the Clash of the Champions.

00:25:33Big week for World Championship Wrestling, not only live tonight in Casper, Wyoming, but live in Denver this Thursday, 8.05 Eastern Time.

00:25:41For our biannual event, Clash of the Champions. Plus, we also have, as you know, Saturday Night coming up this coming Saturday.

00:25:51And we have some tremendous action all throughout the week.

00:25:58And as we said, Ric Flair, the Macho Man, Savage, U.S. title on the line, coming up later on in the second hour here.

00:26:06Bobby the Brain, he didn't come at you.

00:26:08That's going to be wild. I heard some rumors in the back before we came out about Savage in the back room, smashing chairs.

00:26:16You know how much he hates Ric Flair. Again, with the animosities amongst these guys here, plus the lack of trust.

00:26:23The New World Order is pulling ahead on points, Tony, and I don't like it.

00:26:27Well, they have captured the belt. You saw the belt.

00:26:30And later on, you'll see how he won that belt and what he actually did to the belt.

00:26:35And you heard him say the name of the booty man and laugh.

00:26:38That was a bizarre set of circumstances as well. We'll show you all of that later on here on Nitro in our second hour.

00:26:44Stay right where you are.

00:26:46Powers was making a move but rushed in too quick.

00:26:49He's got the three.

00:26:51That's it.

00:26:52And he's got the ropes.

00:26:53He had the ropes.

00:26:55Conan has certainly done a 360.

00:26:59Well, the ropes were there. Use them.

00:27:01Referee didn't see it.

00:27:03Maybe Conan is following in the footsteps of Hogan.

00:27:07The ropes were there. Use it.

00:27:13All right, we're going to take one more look at Conan.

00:27:16The fans really are not appreciative of the way he won the match.

00:27:21You know, the guy's wrestling his heart out.

00:27:23The fans are chanting USA.

00:27:25Obviously, you know, not a pleasant note for Conan to hear.

00:27:29He's an aggressive guy anyway, but Powers ran right into it.

00:27:33He was just close to the corner.

00:27:35Didn't want to give up the pin.

00:27:37Definitely had his leg on the rope, but referee didn't see it.

00:27:41We go to the ring and Gene Oakerland with the Mexican Heavyweight champ.

00:27:45I thank you very much, Tony and Larry.

00:27:47Ladies and gentlemen, on Saturday night, I talked to this man, Conan.

00:27:50A great international champ.

00:27:52You, I think, compared yourself to the great Hulk Hogan.

00:27:55And what I saw here, I think, is shades of Hulk Hogan, Conan.

00:28:00When you had your body up on a rope to help you get the victory.

00:28:04Here's our camera guy. We'll turn you around this way.

00:28:07Your opinion's irrelevant. Do you pay my checks?

00:28:09No, then shut up.

00:28:11Let me tell you something.

00:28:13Ever since I've been here...

00:28:16These people don't like you. I can't understand why.

00:28:19And why'd they pay a ticket to come and see me?

00:28:22You should be applauding.

00:28:24Let me tell you something, Mean Gene.

00:28:26Ever since the New World odor came into town,

00:28:31they've been stinking up the joint.

00:28:33They've been beating people up with bats,

00:28:35slamming car trunks on their head,

00:28:38throwing cruiserweights in the trailers headfirst.

00:28:41In Mexico, they say,

00:28:43whoever fails the plan, plans to fail.

00:28:47I got a foolproof plan.

00:28:50Conan...

00:28:52Don't go pay attention, please, to these people.

00:28:55We've only got a limited amount of time.

00:28:57Conan is sticking behind WCW in this war against NWO.

00:29:02So look out, NWO!

00:29:04Thank you very much.

00:29:06Conan making a statement.

00:29:07As you know, he is the current reigning Mexican heavyweight champ.

00:29:10He wants to...

00:29:11I live in Mexico!

00:29:13Go along with a little solidarity, if you will,

00:29:16here at World Championship Wrestling.

00:29:18And I can see them bonding together, Tony and Larry.

00:29:21And hopefully we're gonna have to see a lot more of that

00:29:23with so many things up in the air.

00:29:25We're live. We're in Casper, Wyoming.

00:29:27Stay tuned. Lock it in.

00:29:29More Nitro coming up after this.

00:29:40If you just joined us, ladies and gentlemen,

00:29:43here tonight, live in Casper, Wyoming,

00:29:45a challenge was made by Sting and Lex Luger

00:29:48based on what happened at Halls Wild.

00:29:50They want the Outsiders, Hall and Nash, back in the ring.

00:29:53And those two gentlemen did accept the challenge.

00:29:57And tonight, on this program,

00:30:00Hall and Nash, the Outsiders,

00:30:02will face Sting and Lex Luger.

00:30:05Keep them right here tonight on WCW Monday Night Show.

00:30:09Larry, I cannot wait. It is not too far away.

00:30:12We understand win will happen any time that match will happen.

00:30:16It's definitely gonna happen tonight.

00:30:18But it worries me, Tony.

00:30:20You know how emotional Sting is.

00:30:22He jumps out, makes the challenge.

00:30:24These guys accepted it. That's what worries me.

00:30:27Hogan let them accept it.

00:30:29They've got something up their sleeve.

00:30:31Hogan mentioned a fourth man, a fifth man,

00:30:34that we don't know about.

00:30:35Who's gonna be watching the backs of Luger and Sting?

00:30:38I don't think anybody except maybe Randy Savage

00:30:41that he's so obsessed about this match tonight against Ric Flair.

00:30:47I don't know if it's a good idea for Lex and Sting

00:30:50to get in the ring with the New World Order tonight.

00:30:52I don't think they're working on common sense or logic.

00:30:56No, it's emotion.

00:30:57It's emotion. It's the same thing that runs womanhood.

00:31:00And we all know what happens when that runs amok.

00:31:04Chris Benoit with some womanhood.

00:31:06Woman and Miss Elizabeth Flecking,

00:31:08one of the members of the Horsemen,

00:31:10to go up against Ron Studd,

00:31:12the debut of Ron Studd, over 7 feet tall.

00:31:15Very big stud.

00:31:16Big guy, and it should be a good matchup here.

00:31:20I don't know how accomplished he is.

00:31:23He is very big, but boy, Benoit,

00:31:26it's gonna be a very complimentary match

00:31:29in terms of the beauty and the beast factor.

00:31:32Benoit, in terms of wrestling beauty,

00:31:35this guy is an artist in there.

00:31:37Just regains his balance in the wink of an eye.

00:31:40Always in a position to strike and explode,

00:31:42but look at the size he's given up to this man.

00:31:48And he is pointing right towards this guy.

00:31:51He may give up some...

00:31:52Oh, he slaps him in the face.

00:31:54Benoit fears no man, and you can see it in his eyes.

00:31:57Yeah, he's a tenacious guy.

00:31:58He's got confidence in himself.

00:32:00You know, beating big, big men is no problem

00:32:03if you know what you're doing, but don't stand there.

00:32:05He's able to injure the Toothmaster's neck

00:32:08and keeps right on going.

00:32:10Benoit and Ron Studd, gigantic man,

00:32:15towering over Benoit.

00:32:16Ladies and gentlemen, Ric Flair, macho man,

00:32:19U.S. title, Outsiders, Sting and Lex Luger

00:32:23show you footage, the desecration of WCW.

00:32:28You saw the belt.

00:32:29That is all still to come,

00:32:31the footage from Hogwild in this program.

00:32:35Stay with us.

00:32:36See, Benoit used some nice footage there.

00:32:38Not the big man right behind the knee.

00:32:40Hook him down to the mat,

00:32:42and that's what you gotta be thinking.

00:32:43If the man's tower is over you,

00:32:45take him down on the mat.

00:32:46Now that Studd's on the mat,

00:32:48who's the tall man in the ring?

00:32:50It's Benoit.

00:32:51It's Chris Benoit.

00:32:54You know, he's been known as the Canadian Crippler,

00:32:58but he is Mr. Intensity.

00:33:02There's no question.

00:33:03Always ready, always in balance,

00:33:05always in control of his body.

00:33:07Thinking, playing that game of human chess wisely.

00:33:11Got the big man on the mat.

00:33:13Now you can see what a big man,

00:33:15what they do on the mat.

00:33:16Nothing.

00:33:17They wallow around like whales.

00:33:21He took water.

00:33:22Continuing to stomp on the knee.

00:33:24No question, the force that is

00:33:26the Four Horsemen.

00:33:27They've had their problems

00:33:28with the Dungeon of Doom.

00:33:31I'll tell you why the Horsemen

00:33:32didn't put him out there.

00:33:33All these props, Dungeon of Doom,

00:33:34the Four Horsemen, Benoit, Rich Flair,

00:33:37Macho Man, Randy Savage,

00:33:39it's all giving the new world owner

00:33:42a chance to come in here and take over.

00:33:45Well, there's personal issues

00:33:46that have to be settled as well

00:33:47within WCW as well as outside.

00:33:49That's the only answer I can think of.

00:33:51That's why Hogan let Holland Nash

00:33:53accept the challenge.

00:33:54They've got aces in the hole

00:33:56and these guys have too much

00:33:57animosity going amongst themselves.

00:34:00You know, there's a lot of questions

00:34:01that need to be answered

00:34:02in the Horsemen camp, though,

00:34:03and it all centers on the ladies,

00:34:05especially on Woman.

00:34:06You know, Woman came out,

00:34:08if you'll recall, when Chris Benoit

00:34:11was injuring the Taskmaster,

00:34:12hurt his neck.

00:34:13Woman came out to try to pull Benoit off

00:34:16and since that time,

00:34:17these two have had words.

00:34:18Question is, why did she come out?

00:34:20What were the words all about?

00:34:21They seem to admit things.

00:34:23And in the midst of this tirade here,

00:34:25Ron Studd has gotten back into this thing.

00:34:28Well, Benoit left a little bit of an opening.

00:34:30I don't know if it's just an

00:34:32underestimation of this big man or what,

00:34:34but Benoit quick to get up.

00:34:36A lot of endurance.

00:34:37Look at this big guy.

00:34:39He's climbing to the top.

00:34:40My goodness.

00:34:41I don't know if the ring can hold him up,

00:34:43but Benoit, he's on his feet.

00:34:45Benoit kicks him,

00:34:47and I tell you,

00:34:48a 7-foot-plus man up on a top turnbuckle

00:34:51is him.

00:34:52Benoit's going to try to superplex him.

00:34:54My goodness.

00:34:55From the top.

00:34:56He can reach us with him.

00:34:58What a grab.

00:35:00The fans are up.

00:35:01Benoit, superplex one, two, three.

00:35:04What a win for Chris Benoit.

00:35:07What a win.

00:35:09You think he's not for real.

00:35:11Take a look at those eyes.

00:35:13The man that fears no man wins again.

00:35:16Yeah, Benoit,

00:35:17no nonsense.

00:35:18Very serious individual.

00:35:19Always in command of his body.

00:35:21Knows what he's doing.

00:35:22But he attacked this guy right.

00:35:24Took the big giant man down.

00:35:26That was a great win.

00:35:28Benoit continues each and every week to win.

00:35:31It was the science.

00:35:33It was the way he approached it.

00:35:34Got the big man wobbly.

00:35:35Look at this.

00:35:36Off the top rope.

00:35:38Bam.

00:35:39Boy, he just dropped him.

00:35:40And again, different angle here.

00:35:42But Benoit shoved him out.

00:35:43A lot of weight coming down right in the back of the head of Ron Studd.

00:35:47And Benoit walks out victorious,

00:35:49I must add, with woman and Miss Elizabeth.

00:35:53We go to Jean.

00:35:57Thank you very much.

00:35:59Very good.

00:36:00Chris Benoit along with woman and Miss Elizabeth, the ladies.

00:36:04I must say up in this mile high air,

00:36:06I am getting a little lightheaded, woman.

00:36:09Oh, why is that, Jean?

00:36:11Why are you getting a little lightheaded?

00:36:12I can't talk about it.

00:36:13Always, of course, Elizabeth.

00:36:15Good to see you.

00:36:16Now, Chris Benoit, before we get to this Thursday night

00:36:19and your one-on-one bout,

00:36:21this was a heck of a warm-up against a man over 7 feet tall.

00:36:24You're going to be facing the Giant in Denver

00:36:26on the Clash of the Champions this coming Thursday night.

00:36:29But let's go back to Saturday night.

00:36:31Sturgis, South Dakota, Hog Wild.

00:36:33Here we're taking a look at your opponent,

00:36:35of course, the great Dean Malenko.

00:36:37You're going to the ring with woman and Miss Elizabeth.

00:36:40Then I'm going to pay you both a compliment.

00:36:42One of the greatest matches I've ever seen.

00:36:44Up and down, tooth and nail.

00:36:46Dean Malenko, without a doubt,

00:36:49one of the greatest technical wrestlers in the world today.

00:36:54I admire the man's talents.

00:36:57I respect the man's talents.

00:37:00But what he didn't realize was he was in the ring

00:37:03with a man on an agenda.

00:37:06The Horsemen have an agenda.

00:37:09And until we fulfill that agenda,

00:37:13we will fulfill that agenda relentlessly, unabatedly.

00:37:19Until that time, there's a few obstacles in the way.

00:37:24This coming Thursday, Giant, you are strong by stature.

00:37:31You're big by stature.

00:37:34When you get into the ring with the Crippler,

00:37:38I will knock you down to size.

00:37:41All right, he sure showed us a lot earlier on

00:37:43in that big match with Ron Studd.

00:37:45This coming Thursday, 8.05 on TBS

00:37:48at the Clash of the Champions,

00:37:49Chris Benoit defeats the Giant.

00:37:51That is must-do-ing.

00:37:53Stay tuned, we're live in Casper, Wyoming.

00:37:55This is WCW Monday Nitro.

00:37:58♪♪

00:38:05Welcome back to Nitro Live from Casper, Wyoming, everyone.

00:38:09This past Saturday at Hog Wild,

00:38:11we had quite a match with the Steiners and Harlem Heath

00:38:14for the World Tag Team title.

00:38:15Let's show you some of the footage,

00:38:16some of the stills right now from that

00:38:18as we take a look at what went on.

00:38:20There you see the Steiner brothers going to the ring

00:38:25against Harlem Heath, the World Tag Team champions.

00:38:28Colonel Parker, Sister Sherry, of course,

00:38:30going there as well.

00:38:31It was a real in-your-face type match between both teams.

00:38:34But at the end, Sherry hitting Scott Steiner with powder.

00:38:37Colonel Parker breaking his walking cane

00:38:39over the head of Scott Steiner.

00:38:41And Harlem Heath retains the World Tag Team belts.

00:38:44But coming up here on the second hour,

00:38:46it's going to be a return match between those two teams.

00:38:49Ladies and gentlemen, we start our countdown

00:38:51under a minute now to hour number two of Nitro.

00:38:54And I want to tell you, with Nature Boy Ric Flair

00:38:58going up against the Macho Man Randy Savage

00:39:00for the U.S. title, the World Tag Team title,

00:39:02like we just talked about,

00:39:03the Cruiserweight title on the line,

00:39:05and the acceptance by the Outsiders

00:39:07to wrestle here tonight against Sting and Lex Luger,

00:39:10there's no doubt about it,

00:39:11probably the hottest second hour that we've ever had

00:39:13as we are now less than 30 seconds out.

00:39:15Yeah, no doubt about it.

00:39:16Uranium 235 and Plutonium

00:39:18coming together tonight in the second half at Nitro.

00:39:21Again, Macho Man hates Ric Flair's guts.

00:39:24We saw the Steiners and the Harlem Heath,

00:39:26both tag teams, brutal and barbaric in that ring.

00:39:29That's going to be good.

00:39:30But I want to see the New World Order pay for what happened

00:39:34and Lex Luger and Sting better get the job done.

00:39:37Plus footage of what happened at Hogwild

00:39:39as we take you to Eric and Bobby, our two.

00:39:43All right, thanks, guys.

00:39:44Hello, everybody, and welcome to WCW Monday Nitro

00:39:49live right here on TNT.

00:39:52And, Bobby, the brain hanging,

00:39:55we are cooking with ash tonight.

00:39:58Flair, Savage, the Outsiders,

00:40:00Colin Nash, the Mad Spain right here in the first hour

00:40:03taking on Sting and Lex Luger.

00:40:06The tag team titles coming up next.

00:40:09This is way too good.

00:40:10Well, I just came from the dressing room area

00:40:12and Luger's walking up and down the hall

00:40:14talking to himself.

00:40:15Sting's walking up and down the hall

00:40:16talking to himself.

00:40:17They are ready.

00:40:18They want the Outsiders.

00:40:19They want them tonight.

00:40:20But I got to ask you the $64,000 question,

00:40:22Eric Bishop, where were you last week

00:40:25and why did you desert me?

00:40:27Well, where I was and what I was doing,

00:40:29basically, I was taking care of some business.

00:40:31We'll just let it go with that.

00:40:33Coming up next,

00:40:34the world tag team titles on the line.

00:40:38And here's two guys that, without question,

00:40:41really lit up Sturgis.

00:40:43And what a tremendous time we had in Sturgis.

00:40:45But I got to tell you, as great as Sturgis was,

00:40:48as exciting of a pay-per-view event as it was,

00:40:51as WCW has been doing,

00:40:53breaking new ground each and every time

00:40:56we put on a pay-per-view,

00:40:57it was a devastating night for WCW.

00:41:01And as we have said before,

00:41:03on Monday's following pay-per-views,

00:41:06a picture is worth a thousand words.

00:41:09And what you're going to see is not a pretty picture,

00:41:12and that's putting it mildly, to be sure.

00:41:16Hogan has stole not only the hearts,

00:41:20the minds, and the souls of WCW fans,

00:41:24he's basically ripped off the belt and desecrated it.

00:41:28We'll show it all to you later on.

00:41:30But coming up right now, the tag team champions,

00:41:34although holding on to that belt

00:41:36by the skin of their teeth,

00:41:37Saturday in Sturgis, Harlem Heat.

00:41:43And this crowd is fire-pumped

00:41:45and ready for a great tag team matchup.

00:41:47We're going to get it, Bobby, coming up.

00:41:48Flash of the champions, 8.05 to 10.05 Eastern time.

00:41:53Hulk Hogan will be there.

00:41:56Chris Benoit in the giant.

00:41:58We heard about that one.

00:41:59Eddie Guerrero, Diamond Dallas Page,

00:42:01Medusa, and Bull Nakata.

00:42:03You're going to be hearing a lot about that matchup.

00:42:06Ultimate Dragon.

00:42:07It's this Thursday, August 15th.

00:42:10Flash of the champions.

00:42:12Don't miss it, whatever you do.

00:42:15I want to see what kind of entrance Hulk Hogan makes.

00:42:19I want to see what this man is going to come up with.

00:42:21As the weeks go on, as time passes,

00:42:24this man gets lower.

00:42:26He gets lower than dirt.

00:42:28I've known that for 20 years.

00:42:31And off we go.

00:42:33These guys remember Sturgis.

00:42:35They remember what happened to them.

00:42:37They're not wasting any time.

00:42:38Scottie Steiner up and over.

00:42:40Rick Steiner watching the perimeters.

00:42:42And we have got a hot crowd here on Nitro tonight.

00:42:45Harlem Heat, they know they kept those belts

00:42:49only because of the interference of Parker and Sherry.

00:42:53They know it.

00:42:54Everybody watching knew it.

00:42:56The Steiner brothers know it.

00:42:57And redemption on their mind here tonight, Heaton.

00:42:59Well, I'll tell you, the Steiner brothers,

00:43:01they want to become tag team champions of the world real bad.

00:43:03But they also would love to get their hands on the Colonel.

00:43:06And probably get their paws on Sister Sherry, too.

00:43:09Still to come, as you heard in the first hour,

00:43:11the Nature Boy, Ric Flair, steps into the ring.

00:43:14The U.S. title on the line against the Macho Man,

00:43:17Randy Savage.

00:43:18That is one that we've been waiting for,

00:43:20for a long, long time.

00:43:22And I think that Savage may get more than he might have wanted.

00:43:26Well, I'll tell you this.

00:43:27You know who's going to be in the corner along with Ric Flair,

00:43:29don't you?

00:43:30I know.

00:43:31He's been waiting for that, too.

00:43:32Oh, yeah.

00:43:33And Savage is coming.

00:43:34He's had all his shock treatments.

00:43:35And he's had the doctors OK.

00:43:36He's legally nuts.

00:43:37So he can go wrestling.

00:43:38Iron and the Giant on deck.

00:43:39A big boot to the side of the head.

00:43:42Iron and Giant will be mixing it up here tonight, as well.

00:43:45Without question, a hot hour coming up here on Nitro.

00:43:50And again, I want to thank all of the great people in Sturgis,

00:43:52all of the bikers that were there.

00:43:54Made us feel so at home.

00:43:55Belly to belly.

00:43:56Bent over.

00:43:57Booker T taking a ride.

00:43:59Stevie Ray hits the deck.

00:44:01And I'll tell you what, the Steiners, 48 hours or so,

00:44:06coming off of that devastating loss in Sturgis,

00:44:09definitely in control here.

00:44:11Make no mistake about it.

00:44:12Well, they're very fortunate to have another opportunity

00:44:14to become champions of the world.

00:44:16They can't blow it here.

00:44:17If they want it, they're going to have to go out and get it.

00:44:19So, Steiners, let's see how tough you are.

00:44:21Forget all your Michigan State stuff.

00:44:23Forget all your college amateur stuff.

00:44:25You're in there with two big, big men and the Colonel.

00:44:29Hope you've done your homework, punks.

00:44:32Also want to let all of you know who joined us along the way

00:44:36from the Mall of America in Minneapolis

00:44:39as we drove literally the whole way on our Harleys

00:44:44It was great to see all of you, all points in between.

00:44:48We really appreciated the reception we got.

00:44:51But I'll tell you what, it was fun,

00:44:53and we're going to do it again next year.

00:44:54We'll see you at Longwild next year at Sturgis Head.

00:44:58Right now, Stevie Ray getting the best of Rick Steiner.

00:45:02Nice reversal.

00:45:03Reversal.

00:45:04And up and over.

00:45:06Steiner's in control.

00:45:08One, two, and a kick out.

00:45:09Did not get the three count tag.

00:45:11Three count tag is made.

00:45:12In comes Scotty Steiner.

00:45:13You know when Rick Steiner tagged his brother Scott,

00:45:16he held on to the arm,

00:45:17made sure Harem Heat was not getting away.

00:45:19That's how good a tag team they are.

00:45:21All right, we'll be back with more action right after this.

00:45:35All right, welcome back.

00:45:36We are live right here on WCW Monday Nitro TNT

00:45:41as the Steiner brothers take on the Harlem Heat

00:45:44for the tag team titles.

00:45:47And I want to let you know that still to come,

00:45:49we're going to see Ray Mysterio Jr.

00:45:51and the Ultimate Dragon from Japan.

00:45:54That's going to be a tremendous match to be sure.

00:45:56Also on the Clash of the Champions,

00:45:58while we're talking about it,

00:45:59in addition to the Nature Boy, Ric Flair, and Hulk Hogan,

00:46:02that one coming your way.

00:46:04You know, a lot of people really looking

00:46:06at that tag team picture here in WCW.

00:46:09So much going on.

00:46:10But coming up next,

00:46:12you know, we heard Tony and Larry talking

00:46:14about the controversy surrounding-

00:46:16Oh!

00:46:17Did you see that?

00:46:18Oh!

00:46:19Man, was that a tough shot.

00:46:21Did he get stopped quick.

00:46:23He got nailed.

00:46:25Rick Steiner, he is in trouble.

00:46:27A lot of controversy surrounding Lee Patrick.

00:46:29Was it a fast count on a concrete body slam?

00:46:33You know, Nick Patrick has been a fine referee

00:46:35here at WCW for a long time.

00:46:37Not that I want to find myself

00:46:38in any kind of agreement with the Outsiders,

00:46:40but I think it's unfair at this point to cast doubt.

00:46:43Was it a fast count?

00:46:44You know, I don't know.

00:46:46Everybody's got their own opinion.

00:46:48It seems to me the Outsiders seem to think

00:46:50that it was just an accident.

00:46:51They seem to think he's a tremendous referee.

00:46:53Oh!

00:46:54Oh!

00:46:56Rick Steiner puts the brakes on.

00:47:01So I guess only time will tell about Mr. Patrick.

00:47:03You know, interestingly enough,

00:47:04you listen to the Outsiders in that interview.

00:47:06They're talking about how Sting and Lex

00:47:08were crying about the referee.

00:47:09Sting and Lex didn't care about the referee

00:47:12and the controversy.

00:47:13All they want is another shot at the Outsiders,

00:47:15and they are going to get it here tonight.

00:47:17Oh!

00:47:18Scotty Steiner, hooks the leg.

00:47:21Oh!

00:47:22Man, did you see the forearm by Rick Steiner.

00:47:24He nailed him good.

00:47:25And don't forget, the Outsiders,

00:47:26Hogan, Hall, and Nash were all talking

00:47:29to a fourth or even fifth.

00:47:31Who knows how many Outsiders

00:47:32were in that dressing room with him.

00:47:33This is going to be very, very scary tonight.

00:47:35Or if there's any at all.

00:47:37You don't know.

00:47:38You don't know.

00:47:40Is it Deco Mountain?

00:47:41Harmony.

00:47:45Oh!

00:47:46Oh, did you see that?

00:47:48She held his foot.

00:47:49She held his foot.

00:47:50Right at the end, and in goes Parker.

00:47:52Down goes Parker.

00:47:53Get out of there, Colonel.

00:47:54Get out of there.

00:47:55No.

00:47:56Patrick saw it.

00:47:58Patrick saw it.

00:47:59We got new champions?

00:48:01No.

00:48:02It's a disqualification.

00:48:03No, it's a disqualification.

00:48:04Be there any question regarding the integrity

00:48:07of one Nick Patrick, consider it resolved here.

00:48:11He saw what happened with Sherry.

00:48:13He saw interference.

00:48:15He threw it out.

00:48:16Wait a minute.

00:48:17Harlem, he's getting up in the Colonel's face here.

00:48:19Things don't look good at Camp Parker.

00:48:22Now they're both on Sherry, stepping to do something.

00:48:25You can control these men.

00:48:27Sherry coming up from behind.

00:48:29She is hot.

00:48:31She's laying the law down now, as only she can do.

00:48:35This is a woman's world.

00:48:37She knows it.

00:48:41All right, let's see if we can get another look at this

00:48:43while they're arguing about the fact.

00:48:45Here it is.

00:48:46It's obvious.

00:48:47Sherry going up.

00:48:49As Scott Steiner was going for the snap suplex,

00:48:52Sherry holds onto the ankle.

00:48:54Nick Patrick missed it.

00:48:55He missed the whole thing.

00:48:56Sherry did what she had to do.

00:48:57It's that simple.

00:48:58He didn't miss anything.

00:48:59He saw it out of his peripheral vision.

00:49:00He caught it.

00:49:01But, I mean, he didn't stop it right there.

00:49:04And he could have.

00:49:05It's a DQ.

00:49:06Clean call.

00:49:07Good match.

00:49:08And we got more action coming up right after this.

00:49:12Don't leave us.

00:49:13All right, welcome back.

00:49:20We are live right here on Nitro.

00:49:23So much going on.

00:49:25Still to come, you are going to see what Hulk Hogan

00:49:29and the New World Order did

00:49:32to one of the most prized possessions of WCW.

00:49:35In addition to that, you're going to see and hear

00:49:37what Hulk Hogan did to one of his closest friends

00:49:41that had to shock everybody who understands the relationship

00:49:45between Hulk Hogan and the Booty Man.

00:49:48And I'll tell you what, it shocked me.

00:49:50It shocked everyone at ringside.

00:49:51You're going to see that.

00:49:53You are going to see right here tonight the Outsiders.

00:49:56They look pretty cavalier, pretty nonchalant.

00:49:58What do they know that Sting and Lex Luger don't know?

00:50:01I know one thing that the Outsiders don't know.

00:50:03Sting and Lex Luger are primed for this match.

00:50:06And you're going to see it, the return match from here tonight.

00:50:09But, Heenan, Hogwild.

00:50:11Harleys everywhere.

00:50:13Medusa, Bonacano, the winner gets to trash the other one's bike.

00:50:18Take a look at this footage.

00:50:20Take a look at it, Heenan.

00:50:22Sonny Ono taking a cheap shot.

00:50:25Bonacano lost the match, but Ono grabbed that sledgehammer.

00:50:28And I'll tell you what, you talk about a stunned group of Harley guys.

00:50:31Look at this.

00:50:32Well, they've never seen anything like that.

00:50:33Sonny Ono picks up that sledgehammer.

00:50:35He knows what to do with it.

00:50:36Now he's going to have to get out of the way here.

00:50:39Man, Medusa, she's going after that Honda.

00:50:42I think that's what it was.

00:50:44I don't know what kind of a motorcycle it was,

00:50:46but she smashed everything to bits.

00:50:48And she enjoyed doing it.

00:50:49That's about a 25-pound sledgehammer.

00:50:51She just hammered that bike.

00:50:53And you talk about a whole bunch of happy Harley riders.

00:50:56They were surrounding ringside, and you should have seen it.

00:51:00It was amazing to be sure.

00:51:03Tremendous win for Medusa.

00:51:05She's got a nice Harley.

00:51:06I'm glad she came out of that one.

00:51:07Well, you know I like the outsiders.

00:51:08They're laying back, and they're giving you the 3-0.

00:51:11They're cool.

00:51:12Luger's not cool.

00:51:13Sting's not cool.

00:51:14They're beside themselves.

00:51:15And Flair told me he's going to take a little bit of that money that

00:51:18Elizabeth has that used to belong to Savage,

00:51:20and they're going to buy him a pub tent so he can camp out here in

00:51:23Goatland, out here in Casper,

00:51:25and spend the rest of his days out here prospecting for a little money

00:51:28he can find.

00:51:29When Savage is over.

00:51:30Okay, still to come, cruiserweight matchup.

00:51:32Let's take you back to Hog Wild.

00:51:34Cruiserweight action.

00:51:35You're going to see the return match coming up next.

00:51:38And there you see the cruiserweight champion,

00:51:40Rey Mysterio Jr., as he prepares to take on the ultimate dragon.

00:51:43This was a tremendous, and this is exactly what you would expect

00:51:47out of the WCW cruiserweight division, is high-flying,

00:51:51high-impact action.

00:51:53And there you see Nick Patrick.

00:51:55And you're going to have the return match here.

00:51:57But like you said, the outsider's still to come.

00:52:00They step into the ring with Sting and Lex Luger.

00:52:03But right now, let's get down to the ring.

00:52:05Sorry to cut you off, man.

00:52:06We're running out of time.

00:52:07You've got to be quick here.

00:52:09Real quick.

00:52:10Well, there's four or five guys in the dressing room.

00:52:13I don't know who's in there.

00:52:14Maybe there's nobody.

00:52:15That's what I was trying to get across.

00:52:16I'm still a little concerned for my health out here.

00:52:18You don't know what they're going to do.

00:52:20But what he did, look what Hogan did to his old-time, long-time buddy.

00:52:24I mean, the man's scum.

00:52:28I agree.

00:52:29And he gets worse, worse every day.

00:52:32Rey Mysterio Jr., a man who many fans here in WCW

00:52:38have taken to very quickly because of his heart, his desire,

00:52:43and his abilities.

00:52:44He is a tremendous, tremendous athlete

00:52:47and represents the Cruiser division so, so well.

00:52:51You know, sometimes I wonder if his shoes are made of bungee cords.

00:52:54He's never that much on the mat.

00:52:55He's up, he's down, he's over the top rope, he's on the floor,

00:52:58flying through the air.

00:52:59I've never seen an athlete in this sport do the things he can do.

00:53:03You know, one of the other things, it was just a couple weeks ago in Disney

00:53:06when Rey Mysterio Jr. was like a human dart up against that trailer.

00:53:12Kevin Nash just spiked him in there and he kept saying,

00:53:14cuatro, cuatro, cuatro, four, four, four.

00:53:16There was four of them, there was four of them.

00:53:18He didn't see who it was.

00:53:20Maybe we'll find out tonight.

00:53:22I think we'll find out tonight.

00:53:24And I don't think we'll like what we're about to find out.

00:53:27Here's my good friend Sonny Ono.

00:53:30Sonny Ono, a guy that was real quick to leave ringside

00:53:33once Medusa got a hold of that sledgehammer.

00:53:35And we understand Medusa has been invited over

00:53:40by a group of promoters in Japan to challenge Japanese best.

00:53:44We're going to be doing that, I think, in the next couple of months.

00:53:47We'll bring you more.

00:53:48Oh, look at this.

00:53:49A little intimidation there.

00:53:51Or he got a hold of some Mrs. Guerrero chili.

00:53:54Easy, easy.

00:53:58Tremendous cruiserweight action coming your way here on Nitro.

00:54:02And we have had one tremendous summer.

00:54:06An extended tour down at the Disney MGM Studios.

00:54:09We enjoyed that.

00:54:10But now we are back on tour.

00:54:12We are on the road.

00:54:13And we are going to be bringing you WCW Monday Nitro Live each and every week.

00:54:17Back leg round kick into a tornado kick by the Ultimate Dragon.

00:54:20Rey Mysterio Jr. able to back off.

00:54:22Circles to his right.

00:54:23Cullen elbow hookup.

00:54:24And back leg round kick to the back of the legs.

00:54:27Then to the midsection.

00:54:28And jump.

00:54:29Smack.

00:54:30Spin side kick right to the chin.

00:54:33Jump back.

00:54:34Jump back.

00:54:35Spin side kick right to the chin.

00:54:37That, my friend, was a perfectly executed display of martial arts.

00:54:44Look at this.

00:54:45Look at this.

00:54:46I don't even know what you call this.

00:54:47It looks like a back break from a flying, from a, I don't know.

00:54:52Cover.

00:54:53Kick out.

00:54:54Rey Mysterio Jr.

00:54:55And he has taken a beating in the opening moments of this cruiserweight title

00:54:59matchup here on Nitro.

00:55:00Flair.

00:55:01Savage.

00:55:02Still to come.

00:55:03Sugar.

00:55:04Sting.

00:55:05They're not complaining.

00:55:06They just want a match.

00:55:07Elbow to the chin.

00:55:08Again, Ultimate Dragon in control of this action right now.

00:55:12And may walk out of here as the new WCW cruiserweight champion.

00:55:15Look at this.

00:55:16Look at this.

00:55:17Oh.

00:55:18Folding him like an envelope.

00:55:21I don't think he's going to get up from this one.

00:55:23What do you want to call that?

00:55:24A sprint?

00:55:25You're going to have to call Mike today.

00:55:26He's got all the answers for these moves.

00:55:28Sprint powerbomb?

00:55:30Should have been an Olympic sport.

00:55:33WCW, I think next four years should be in the Olympics.

00:55:37Is there anything left of us after the NWO take us apart piece by piece?

00:55:41And that's what they're doing.

00:55:42That's what they're doing.

00:55:43It's not going to happen.

00:55:44It's not going to happen.

00:55:45I think tonight you're going to see Sting and Lex Luger.

00:55:47Whoa.

00:55:48Sting and Lex Luger will get their shot.

00:55:51No controversy about the referee as far as they're concerned.

00:55:54They just want the match.

00:55:55And they're going to get the match tonight.

00:55:58I want to see what's going to happen with Flair Savage.

00:56:00That's another one.

00:56:01A lot of people are going to be looking forward to.

00:56:03Shoulder to the midsection.

00:56:05Oh.

00:56:08Ray Mysterio Jr. every time puts on the moves.

00:56:11Uh-oh, uh-oh.

00:56:13Puts on a clinic of high-risk, high-flying maneuvers.

00:56:17I'll tell you, Savage is going to make a mistake tonight.

00:56:19Savage is going to do something bad tonight that's going to get him kicked out of WCW.

00:56:24Because Savage doesn't really care about pinning the shoulders of Ric Flair

00:56:27or making Ric Flair say, I quit.

00:56:30He wants to take the head off Ric Flair and hand it to Elizabeth.

00:56:33That's exactly what Savage wants to do.

00:56:36I want to remind you once again, this Thursday, 8.05 Eastern,

00:56:39The Clash of the Champions live on TBS.

00:56:43The Nature Boy Ric Flair stands up for WCW

00:56:47after what the New World Order did to Arn Anderson.

00:56:50You heard that very moving interview this past Saturday night.

00:56:53And The Nature Boy Ric Flair gets his shot.

00:56:58Now where's he going?

00:56:59That's the whole idea.

00:57:01That's the whole idea with that move.

00:57:03Confuse your opponent.

00:57:04Set his timing on.

00:57:06And that's what the ultimate...

00:57:08Right up against the guardrails.

00:57:10Yeah, I wouldn't have figured him to come out again after he did all those spins around,

00:57:13then kicked me, went back into the ring, did his reverse somersault, then got up.

00:57:17I wouldn't have figured him to come out.

00:57:18Both men down.

00:57:20He's hurt himself.

00:57:21And down here in front of this capacity crowd, here in Casper,

00:57:25as WCW on tour.

00:57:27Amazing.

00:57:28We will see you as we continue our tour in Denver Thursday night,

00:57:318.05 Eastern, Clash of the Champions.

00:57:33A tremendous lineup of wrestling action coming your way.

00:57:37The New World Order.

00:57:38They may be dominating it at this moment,

00:57:41but I'll tell you what, Sting and Lex get their shot here tonight.

00:57:45A match we did not expect.

00:57:48That'll tear your shoulders open.

00:57:49One, two, three.

00:57:51What was I about to say?

00:57:52New Cruiserweight Champion coming your way here.

00:57:54Eric, do you realize how many people have held that WCW belt?

00:57:57Do you realize the history in that title?

00:57:59Do you realize how many great men?

00:58:01What Hogan did to that title really turned my stomach and a lot of people's.

00:58:05That'd be like breaking the ban at Beirut or something like that.

00:58:08Cover, one, two, and another kickout by the Cruiserweight Champion,

00:58:12Rey Mysterio Jr.

00:58:13And this one is a test of physical endurance.

00:58:17They have been going at each other high, flying,

00:58:20hard impact, high-risk maneuvers since the opening moments of this match.

00:58:24Well, he better not waste any time with Jr. here.

00:58:26He better get back on his feet, get Jr. up,

00:58:28and put him in a move where he can't move.

00:58:30Because this man does recuperate very, very quickly.

00:58:34The Ultimate Dragon taking his cue from Sonny Ono.

00:58:39And Ono gave him some bad advice because the Cruiserweight Champion

00:58:45was laying in wait.

00:58:47He was playing possum.

00:58:48He countered.

00:58:49He prevailed.

00:58:50And he remains the WCW Cruiserweight Champion here tonight live on Nitro.

00:58:57And Mr. Ono is not happy at all.

00:59:00He is beside himself.

00:59:01This is a Japanese gentleman who has been insulted here.

00:59:05He thinks he's been shot.

00:59:06He thinks the referee's going, hey, I'm talking, pal.

00:59:09You understand something?

00:59:10Get out of that ring.

00:59:11I'm going to do some talking here.

00:59:12Casper, Wyoming, name a town after a ghost.

00:59:15Mysterio, up in the air, over the top rope.

00:59:18Look at that.

00:59:19He's going to be six or seven feet over that top rope.

00:59:21Lands on the Ultimate Dragon.

00:59:23Dragon thinks he's got him here.

00:59:24But he wasted a little too much time.

00:59:26Picks up Mysterio.

00:59:28Look at this.

00:59:29The man just climbs over him, climbs on his back, goes around him,

00:59:32gets him in the one, two, three, and then jackknifes him

00:59:35to make sure he is going no place.

00:59:37He is cold pizza.

00:59:39The Macho Man, Randy Savage, The Nature Boy, Ric Flair,

00:59:42the US title on the line.

00:59:44See you in a few seconds.

00:59:46Who will the fourth man be?

00:59:52Welcome back, and we are live right here on TNT.

00:59:55WCW Nitro coming your way on tour.

00:59:59And coming up, The Macho Man, Randy Savage,

01:00:01as he takes on Ric Flair for the US title.

01:00:03But let's take you back to Hog Wild

01:00:07as The Nature Boy, Ric Flair, defended against Eddie Guerrero.

01:00:10Ric Flair looking very confident.

01:00:12Eddie Guerrero looking, of course, very, very determined.

01:00:16Eddie Guerrero, a tremendous match,

01:00:19but the dirtiest player in the game prevailed.

01:00:22The Nature Boy, Ric Flair,

01:00:25prevailed over one of the highest rated cruiserweight athletes here in WCW.

01:00:30Eddie Guerrero is not done yet.

01:00:31You'll see Eddie Guerrero in action at the Clash of the Champions.

01:00:34But now, The Nature Boy, Ric Flair,

01:00:37puts that title on the line

01:00:39against The Macho Man, Randy Savage.

01:00:41If you've been following it here in WCW

01:00:43over the last six months or so,

01:00:45you know one thing.

01:00:46This is the moment

01:00:48that The Macho Man

01:00:50has been waiting for.

01:00:52This is the moment

01:00:54that The Macho Man

01:00:56gets his shot

01:00:57at everything

01:00:59taken away from him

01:01:02by not only The Nature Boy, Ric Flair,

01:01:04but by Miss Elizabeth,

01:01:06the Four Horsemen,

01:01:08the money,

01:01:10the embarrassment,

01:01:12the title shots.

01:01:14I'll guarantee you one thing.

01:01:16Casper Wyoming has never seen a couple of ladies like this,

01:01:20and they've never seen The Nature Boy

01:01:22style and profile

01:01:24like he's doing right now.

01:01:27And The Nature Boy

01:01:31He's got to be thinking

01:01:33that Savage is in a cage

01:01:35because if he would have seen

01:01:37what I saw in the locker room area,

01:01:40What'd you see?

01:01:41I saw Savage looking like he was gonna come out of here

01:01:44shot out of a cannon.

01:01:46Yeah, I'm a little concerned too.

01:01:47Ric shouldn't be this nonchalant and carefree.

01:01:49Savage can come from the back, under the ring.

01:01:51He can drop from the ceiling.

01:01:53Who knows what that man's gonna do?

01:01:55He's ready.

01:01:56He knows

01:01:57this is the moment.

01:02:00This is his time.

01:02:02And tonight,

01:02:03as far as the Macho Man Randy Savage is concerned,

01:02:06it is his U.S. title.

01:02:09And he wants to beat The Nature Boy

01:02:11in front of a woman

01:02:12and his ex-old lady.

01:02:14Good luck, Savage.

01:02:16Listen to this crowd respond.

01:02:21Look at the reaction.

01:02:22Everyone here on their feet.

01:02:25No one sitting down.

01:02:28A standing ovation.

01:02:29A capacity crowd standing ovation

01:02:33for the Macho Man Randy Savage.

01:02:37A man who represents WCW so well.

01:02:42And out of a cannon comes

01:02:45the Macho Man.

01:02:46The Nature Boy, Ric Flair, with a reverse knife hand shot.

01:02:49Stylin', profilin'.

01:02:51And the Macho Man

01:02:55counters with a one of his own.

01:02:57Shot, no effect.

01:02:58Right, left.

01:02:59The Macho Man coming off the ropes.

01:03:01Double sledge in the forehead.

01:03:03Front face flip.

01:03:04The Nature Boy, Ric Flair, up in the corner.

01:03:06And now it is the Macho Man

01:03:08taking batting practice

01:03:10in the corner.

01:03:11The Macho Man not letting up.

01:03:12Irish whip out of the corner.

01:03:14The Nature Boy, Ric Flair, into the top corner.

01:03:16Body drop.

01:03:17And the crowd responds.

01:03:18We are off.

01:03:19We are cookin'.

01:03:20Second hour of the hottest show

01:03:22each and every Monday night.

01:03:24And look at Savage right here.

01:03:25He's not going for a hole.

01:03:27He's going for his eye.

01:03:28He's going for an ear.

01:03:29He's going for his Adam's apple.

01:03:31He's standing on the man's face.

01:03:32Savage really doesn't care

01:03:34about winning or losing this match.

01:03:36He wants to just spit in the man's face.

01:03:38To spit in that man's face.

01:03:40And then get one in the eye, Savage.

01:03:42What comes around, goes around, pal.

01:03:43Thumb to the eye by the Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

01:03:46And the Macho Man, Randy Savage,

01:03:47he bounces up off the canvas.

01:03:49He is ready to go.

01:03:52Left jab.

01:03:53And make no mistake about it.

01:03:54It was a jab.

01:03:55Reverse left hand

01:03:56chopped to the top of the chest.

01:03:57And think of it.

01:03:58Still to come.

01:04:00Still to come

01:04:01on the second hour of Nitro,

01:04:03the Outsiders,

01:04:04Paul and Nash,

01:04:05as cavalier as they may be,

01:04:07will be facing one fired up team

01:04:09of Sting and Lex Luger.

01:04:11Forget about the controversies from home wide.

01:04:13It is going to be a brawl

01:04:15here at Casper

01:04:16live tonight on Nitro.

01:04:18And look at this.

01:04:19Savage green right through Elizabeth.

01:04:20He didn't care if Ric Flair hit behind her or not.

01:04:23He was going to go get his hands on the Nature Boy.

01:04:26Out here on the floor, as usual.

01:04:28I'm not so sure the Macho Man, Randy Savage,

01:04:30wouldn't mind running right over the top

01:04:33of Miss Elizabeth.

01:04:35Not at all.

01:04:36I mean, she's spending all his money.

01:04:38All right.

01:04:39We got to take a real quick time out here.

01:04:41Don't leave us now.

01:04:42We've got more action than you can ever imagine.

01:04:45Still to come here on Nitro,

01:04:47The Giant, Arne Anderson,

01:04:49The Outsiders, Lex Sting.

01:04:51You've got it all.

01:04:52Hulk Hogan's going to be here.

01:04:53I want to hear what that guy has got to say.

01:04:55We're going to show it all to you.

01:04:56Stay with us, man.

01:05:02All right.

01:05:03Welcome back.

01:05:04We are live.

01:05:05U.S. title on the line.

01:05:06The Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

01:05:07The Macho Man, Randy Savage.

01:05:08This match going back and forth

01:05:10during the commercial break.

01:05:12The Macho Man, Randy Savage,

01:05:13really getting the best of it.

01:05:15Did you see this?

01:05:16Did you see Miss Elizabeth?

01:05:17Boy, she slapped him right across the face,

01:05:19and he lunged at her.

01:05:20He'd have got his hands on her.

01:05:21He'd have hurt that woman.

01:05:23Elizabeth, not woman.

01:05:24I don't know what I mean.

01:05:25Tap to the top of the chest.

01:05:28The Nature Boy, Ric Flair,

01:05:29wanting to go toe-to-toe with The Macho Man.

01:05:32Have to question his judgment here.

01:05:34Have to question his judgment.

01:05:36Those left jabs are taking their toll

01:05:39on The Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

01:05:42Right hand attack.

01:05:43Flair is fighting him.

01:05:44Flair is fighting him.

01:05:45Flair is not backing up from.

01:05:46He's scooting a little bit there,

01:05:47but, I mean, this match is in toe-to-toe.

01:05:52Paul Kogan, we understand, is going to be here.

01:05:55I want to hear him justify what he did.

01:05:58I want to hear him brag about his so-called win.

01:06:02I want to hear how he sees the world

01:06:04through the New World Order's eyes,

01:06:06and we're going to get that opportunity

01:06:07in just a little bit, but don't forget,

01:06:09it's Singh and Rex Luger.

01:06:11They get their shot at the Outsiders.

01:06:13That match made right here on Nitro in the first hour.

01:06:17A shot to the midsection

01:06:18as The Macho Man Randy Savage coming off the ropes.

01:06:20As you know, Hogan is not wearing any yellow,

01:06:22no red anymore.

01:06:23It's all black.

01:06:24He's even letting his beard grow all black.

01:06:27All he cares about is himself.

01:06:29He's always been like that,

01:06:31and now with the Outsiders working for him

01:06:33is what I think is happening.

01:06:35It's dangerous.

01:06:36The Nature Boy, Ric Flair, in control of the action,

01:06:39takes The Macho Man outside of the ring.

01:06:41Nature Boy Ric Flair, evidently,

01:06:43looking for a little help from his fiends.

01:06:45I mean friends.

01:06:46No, I mean fiends.

01:06:47I had it right the first time.

01:06:49Well, that was woman.

01:06:50She came and put the leather to The Macho Man pretty good,

01:06:53but he probably had it coming.

01:06:56The Macho Man Randy Savage now making his way into the ring.

01:07:01Trying to fight his way back into the thick of things

01:07:04in this contest.

01:07:05And a boot, not to the midsection.

01:07:08Not to the head.

01:07:09To the knee.

01:07:10To the most vulnerable point on any athlete's body.

01:07:15You know, Savage is really favoring that leg

01:07:18more than he has in the past,

01:07:19more than he has for a lot of beatings I've seen him taking.

01:07:22I've got to hunch that leg's in very, very bad shape.

01:07:25A lot of fights have been taken out of Savage here.

01:07:28And The Nature Boy Ric Flair

01:07:29continuing to work over that left knee.

01:07:31He is softening him up for what we are about to see,

01:07:34the figure four attempt.

01:07:35Will he get it on?

01:07:36He has got it.

01:07:37He has got the figure four of The Macho Man Randy Savage.

01:07:41It took help from the outside.

01:07:43It took every desperate move, including that one.

01:07:47Using the rope.

01:07:48One, two.

01:07:50Did not get the three counts.

01:07:52The Macho Man Randy Savage has got it all done.

01:07:55He's got to fight the pain,

01:07:56but he's got to keep his shoulders off the mat.

01:07:58Well, Savage won't quit.

01:07:59You'll break both those legs before that man quits.

01:08:02You'll tear a hip off before he quits.

01:08:04He's got to reverse that hold.

01:08:05He's got to turn it over,

01:08:06or he's got to make it to the ropes.

01:08:08Savage is in agonizing pain right now.

01:08:10And I'll tell you something, he don't feel a bit.

01:08:12He don't feel that pain.

01:08:13What he feels is he wants out of that thing,

01:08:15and he wants to get a hold of Flair.

01:08:16Watch this.

01:08:17As soon as Flair goes to the ropes,

01:08:19Savage cannot stand the pain.

01:08:22His back goes down.

01:08:23That gives Flair enough time to put the pressure on

01:08:26to go for the submission.

01:08:27And this time, the referee caught it.

01:08:29This time, he saw it.

01:08:31And the Macho Man, Brandon Savage,

01:08:33turns the tide, turns the figure four,

01:08:36and we have got a different match now.

01:08:39Flair had to release the hold

01:08:40to save his own leg from being snapped,

01:08:42but Savage is hurt.

01:08:43He is really hurt here.

01:08:45And Flair will take advantage of it.

01:08:49Tied suplex by the Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

01:08:51He is bent.

01:08:52He is out of gas.

01:08:54Well, they've been going at it toe to toe

01:08:56since the bell rang, even before the bell rang.

01:08:59He put everything he had into that submission,

01:09:02into that figure four,

01:09:04and it didn't get it done.

01:09:05The Macho Man, Randy Savage,

01:09:06too much motivation, but he's in trouble here.

01:09:08And you can hear the crowd,

01:09:09Macho, Macho, Macho.

01:09:11They've seen it all.

01:09:12They've seen what has been done

01:09:13to the Macho Man, Randy Savage,

01:09:15over the past couple of months,

01:09:16and they want it almost as bad,

01:09:18almost as bad as the Macho Man himself wants it.

01:09:22Well, look at Savage on that mat.

01:09:24He is withering in pain.

01:09:26He's coming alive.

01:09:27There's a lot of fight left

01:09:28in Randy Macho Man Savage.

01:09:30Believe me, I know this man.

01:09:31I've watched him.

01:09:32I've watched his whole career.

01:09:34And look at him.

01:09:35He's getting up to his feet.

01:09:38Flair going up on top.

01:09:40Flair goes up on top.

01:09:41The Macho Man, Randy Savage.

01:09:43He's got him.

01:09:45Oh.

01:09:48The Macho Man takes the U.S. Heavyweight Champion

01:09:51into the corner.

01:09:52Right hands to the head.

01:09:53He measures him.

01:09:54Irish whip all the way across the ring,

01:09:56up and over.

01:09:57But this could be offense for Flair.

01:09:58It's not.

01:09:59It's a clothesline.

01:10:00It's a running clothesline,

01:10:01and he gets nailed.

01:10:03Now, who knows what's going through

01:10:05Savage's mind right now.

01:10:06He's just glad he's got Flair in his

01:10:08so he can pound on him.

01:10:09But you watch.

01:10:10Flair's not through yet.

01:10:11That mind is working.

01:10:12Oh.

01:10:14Oh, no.

01:10:19The referee down a running clothesline,

01:10:22a running clothesline.

01:10:24And now the Macho Man, Randy Savage,

01:10:27takes advantage of it.

01:10:29Savage.

01:10:31And I don't know if the referee is still down or what.

01:10:34He was level.

01:10:37Look at this.

01:10:38Oh, he's down.

01:10:40But so is Flair on the concrete.

01:10:42I don't like this.

01:10:43I don't like the look of this.

01:10:44No, no, no, no, no, no.

01:10:45But look at this.

01:10:46Look at this.

01:10:48He's going to squash him like a grape.

01:10:51Hogan.

01:10:52Hogan.

01:10:54Get him out of there.

01:10:55Hogan with a chair.

01:10:56Oh, my goodness.

01:10:59Oh.

01:11:00Did you hear that, Bischoff?

01:11:03Hulk Hogan.

01:11:05Used to be the best friend of Randy Macho Man.

01:11:08The referee is down.

01:11:10Nick Patrick is in the ring.

01:11:12Nick Patrick in the ring calling for assistance.

01:11:16The Macho Man leveled with a metal chair.

01:11:21He gets tossed into the ring.

01:11:23And now is when we need security.

01:11:26And look at Hogan.

01:11:28And Hogan did not touch Flair.

01:11:31Flair hasn't seen him.

01:11:32But Hogan did not lay a hand on Ric Flair.

01:11:35And they've been leveling everybody with ball bats.

01:11:37Wait a minute.

01:11:38This stinks.

01:11:40Hogan did not touch.

01:11:42Did not touch.

01:11:43Ric Flair.

01:11:44Ric Flair comes out and pummels the Macho Man, Randy Savage.

01:11:49Kneels him in the forehead with a chair.

01:11:51And just nonchalantly walks out of the ring.

01:11:55What?

01:11:57Flair is the dirtiest player in the game.

01:12:00Well, you know, a couple weeks ago.

01:12:02Fourth guy, fifth guy.

01:12:03What's up with that?

01:12:04I don't know.

01:12:06Maybe.

01:12:07Let's see.

01:12:08A couple weeks ago, the Outsiders, they leveled everybody.

01:12:11They went from an Arne Anderson to a Ben Lawton to a Marcus Alexander Bagwell.

01:12:16But he never laid a hand or made a move towards Ric Flair.

01:12:21This does not.

01:12:22Look at this.

01:12:25Flair levels Randy Anderson with that clothesline.

01:12:28Anderson does not like the light.

01:12:30Here comes Hulk Hogan up from behind.

01:12:32It's batter up right into the lung area.

01:12:35Savage's back right over the top of his head.

01:12:38Puts a dent into the chair.

01:12:40Ric Flair laying flat there on the floor.

01:12:43Was never touched by Hogan.

01:12:45Flair gets into the ring.

01:12:46Covers the macho man.

01:12:48McTaggert goes to the cap.

01:12:50Feet on the rope.

01:12:51Woman holding on.

01:12:52One, two, three.

01:12:53What is going on here?

01:12:55It's been said time and time again.

01:12:58And, you know, there was controversy.

01:13:00Tony Schiavone questioned the Nature Boy, Ric Flair.

01:13:04And we all thought, obviously, wrong.

01:13:06But that time, I mean, you got to admit, I mean, I saw it.

01:13:10You saw it.

01:13:11Flair may not have made eye contact with Hulk Hogan.

01:13:14But to me, from where I sit, it looks pretty obvious.

01:13:18If you were Hogan, wouldn't you have taken away Hogan's acting?

01:13:20Now, wouldn't you have taken a cheap shot at Flair?

01:13:22Wouldn't you have nailed him with the chair, too?

01:13:24They beat up everybody else.

01:13:25Why didn't he touch Flair?

01:13:27I mean, do I have to call Johnny Cochran on this one?

01:13:29I mean, come on.

01:13:30An idiot can figure this out.

01:13:32I don't like it.

01:13:33I'll tell you what.

01:13:34I don't like it either.

01:13:35But let's go back to Hog Wild.

01:13:39Let's go back and take a look at something that I think speaks volumes

01:13:43about the man that we've all looked up to for so long.

01:13:48Hulk Hogan making his way for a shot at the WCW World Heavyweight title.

01:13:54He approached the ring.

01:13:55He ripped off his shirt.

01:13:57Something told me when he walked into the ring, he had way too much confidence.

01:14:02He had way too much confidence.

01:14:04But the Giant determined more than ever to hold on to that World Heavyweight title

01:14:09and all of us here at WCW.

01:14:11And I'll tell you what.

01:14:12The Giant was in control.

01:14:14He was in control.

01:14:15You could see the look on Hulk Hogan's eyes.

01:14:17You see the big boot.

01:14:18The Giant had this match.

01:14:21And Giant was not afraid of Hogan.

01:14:23And there he gets his hands around the neck of Hall, one of the outsiders.

01:14:28Hogan with the belt in his hand levels the Giant.

01:14:31Didn't hit him with a punch.

01:14:32Didn't hit him with a left or a right.

01:14:33Hit him with that 25 pounds of gold right across the chops.

01:14:37And there is the heavyweight champion of the world.

01:14:40And they say it's the NWO.

01:14:42I say it stinks.

01:14:43Well, I'll tell you what.

01:14:44The replay is still to come.

01:14:45If you didn't see Hogwild, order the replay because it was amazing.

01:14:49Even more amazing is what Hulk Hogan had to say following his defeat,

01:14:55if he wants to call it that, of the Giant.

01:14:57Listen to this.

01:14:58It's unbelievable.

01:15:00There's the booty man.

01:15:03Show us the booty man right there.

01:15:05And he has the New World Order t-shirt on.

01:15:08And this is when I was convinced that the booty man was the fourth man.

01:15:14He had the shirt on.

01:15:15Listen to this.

01:15:16Listen to this.

01:15:18Look at this two-faced.

01:15:20We got a surprise for you.

01:15:22You know what, brother?

01:15:23We got a surprise.

01:15:24Hold on.

01:15:25What in the world is going on?

01:15:27Get him, boys.

01:15:28Let's get him.

01:15:29This is unbelievable.

01:15:32It's just unbelievable.

01:15:35Yeah.

01:15:37He had spent a couple of minutes talking about what a great friend

01:15:43the booty man was.

01:15:4422 years together, whatever it was.

01:15:49And look at this.

01:15:50They're going to spray paint.

01:15:51I cannot believe this.

01:15:52This is unbelievable.

01:15:53Somebody needs to go in there and tell them.

01:15:56They are spraying.

01:15:57There you go.

01:15:59They have spray painted.

01:16:00Tony, the NWO logo.

01:16:03The NWO is the only way to go.

01:16:08And what you're going to do.

01:16:10They stole it.

01:16:11It's pure.

01:16:12It's simple.

01:16:13Right now, let's go.

01:16:14Timmy and Gene Oakley.

01:16:17You know, I must tell you, Eric hit his grand larceny.

01:16:19There is a dark cloud that hangs over world championship wrestling tonight.

01:16:23And especially here in Casper, Wyoming.

01:16:25We have one man who is laid out of the ring.

01:16:27That's the macho man, Randy Savage.

01:16:29We'll keep you posted on his condition.

01:16:32Now you talk about referees getting their falls greets.

01:16:36You talk about wrestlers being on the take.

01:16:38Hulk Hogan, what you have done to a man that I know that you have known for

01:16:43many, many years, the booty man.

01:16:46And now this tonight, where in the devil is the New World Order going?

01:16:50Well, all of a sudden, brother,

01:16:53the New World Order is real important around here.

01:16:56First, we take the WCW title.

01:17:01Easily, I might add.

01:17:03We transform it into the New World Order belt.

01:17:09And then all of a sudden, red turns to green, brother.

01:17:13As you see the macho man, one of my former friends,

01:17:17laying out in the middle of the square and circle, brother.

01:17:20You know, the way I feel right now,

01:17:22there's just no stopping the New World Order main gene.

01:17:28What about Ric Flair?

01:17:29Ric Flair's gonna try to stop you this Thursday night,

01:17:318.05 Eastern Time on TBS with the Clash of the Champions.

01:17:34You're gonna have your hands full.

01:17:36Well, what this whole thing boils down to is business, brother.

01:17:40I already told you why we attacked the WCW.

01:17:44We attacked the WCW for a reason.

01:17:48Not because of who was there.

01:17:50I didn't care if General Custard himself or President Clint was there.

01:17:55We were there for a reason, and we accomplished that mission.

01:17:58Just like when condominiums were burned in Waco,

01:18:02they burned them for a reason, not because of who was in there.

01:18:05That's why, Ric Flair, brother, that's why I did what I did tonight.

01:18:10I wanted to make sure that since all the fans out here,

01:18:14everybody in the WCW has such a high regard for your past accolades, dude.

01:18:20I wanted to make sure there wasn't a hair missing, a mark,

01:18:24or a scar on your body because of the Clash of Champions.

01:18:28When I step in the ring with the new NWO belt, the new NWO champion,

01:18:34I don't want any excuses, brother,

01:18:37when I wipe you out right in Denver, Colorado, 72 hours from now.

01:18:42All right, a couple of other things that I want to talk about.

01:18:45We are right now awaiting the arrival of the Outsiders,

01:18:49and they're going to lock it up, as I understand here,

01:18:51tonight with Lex Luger and Sting.

01:18:53Well, you know, without a doubt,

01:18:56the Outsiders are here to clean up a little bit of business

01:19:00for the Hulkster and the NWO, dude.

01:19:03But I want to tell everybody when my Outsiders get done

01:19:07with the Stinker, brother, and Flexy Lexy,

01:19:11we're going to change all their names

01:19:13because everybody has nicknames around here,

01:19:17just like the Nature Boy.

01:19:19They don't apply anymore.

01:19:21We're strictly business in the NWO,

01:19:23and we're going to categorize everybody with certain names, brother.

01:19:29So from now on, people like the Nature Boy

01:19:32are going to be right in the proper category.

01:19:36And as far as I'm concerned,

01:19:38starting in Denver, Colorado,

01:19:40Ric Flair will be known as the stupid little man, brother,

01:19:45because stupid little man,

01:19:48if I would do that to my best friend,

01:19:50if I would do that to the Macho Man,

01:19:53what do you think I'm going to do to you, brother?

01:19:58See you later, chump.

01:20:01I have a very, very sick feeling right now in the pit of my stomach.

01:20:05Stay tuned.

01:20:07We're going to have more night golf here, but after a while,

01:20:09you can totally buy it.

01:20:19All right, welcome back.

01:20:20We are live, and I have to tell you,

01:20:22the Macho Man, Randy Savage, was just stretchered out of here,

01:20:26and it was a very frightening sight indeed as we get ready.

01:20:32And I tell you what, it's total chaos here.

01:20:36I've got to tell you, after what Hogan did to the Macho Man.

01:20:40They were working on his neck.

01:20:41His neck was compressed.

01:20:43It was a mess in the ring.

01:20:45And I tell you what, the NWO right now,

01:20:48what it represents to me in my mind,

01:20:50in addition to chaos, is sabotage,

01:20:53and Arne Anderson can attest to that.

01:20:55Take a look at this footage.

01:20:57You've seen it before.

01:20:59This happened just a couple weeks ago at Disney.

01:21:04The attack backstage, baseball bats,

01:21:06just an example of the vicious sabotage

01:21:10that has become all of a sudden a trademark of the NWO.

01:21:14And what you saw just a little while ago with Hogan and Savage

01:21:18certainly represented that.

01:21:20But now I understand.

01:21:22Wait a minute.

01:21:24There's a lot of chaos.

01:21:26There's a lot of chaos here.

01:21:28They're talking to me from the truck.

01:21:31I wish I knew what was going on here.

01:21:33No, I don't either.

01:21:34And I guess the match is on.

01:21:37This is it.

01:21:38I guess it is NWO time.

01:21:40But we don't know where they are.

01:21:42We can't find them.

01:21:43Somebody tell me what is going on here.

01:21:45I want to know where they are right now or I'm leaving.

01:21:47Listen, we've seen this happen before.

01:21:49Please stay with us.

01:21:51They said that they would accept the match.

01:21:53Sting and Luger want the match.

01:21:55It is going to happen.

01:21:56They're telling me from the production truck it's going down.

01:22:00But nobody can find them.

01:22:02Nobody can find them.

01:22:04I don't see them anywhere.

01:22:06They're playing games with us.

01:22:07Every week they play games with us and we let them play games with us.

01:22:10Somebody's got to put a stop to this.

01:22:12If it's Luger, if it's Sting, I don't care who it is.

01:22:14I can't work under these conditions.

01:22:16Nobody can.

01:22:17Look.

01:22:19WCW may appear.

01:22:21There they are.

01:22:22There they are, the outsiders coming through the crowd.

01:22:26I guess they just walk and talk and do exactly what they want to do.

01:22:29Rules mean nothing to them.

01:22:31Which is okay.

01:22:32I don't mind that.

01:22:33But something's got to be done.

01:22:35They've got to be controlled.

01:22:36The outsiders in the ring.

01:22:38They said they would do it according to their schedule.

01:22:41Well, the time has come.

01:22:43The time is now.

01:22:45Sting.

01:22:46Sting.

01:22:48I see Luger.

01:22:49I don't see Sting.

01:22:51This is driving me nuts.

01:22:54Where is he?

01:22:56Did they get him?

01:22:57Did they get him about 10, 15 minutes ago?

01:22:59I don't see Hogan either.

01:23:00Is Hogan doing a number on Sting?

01:23:03Where is Sting?

01:23:05And why is Luger getting in there with Vulcan by himself?

01:23:08Luger.

01:23:09Luger going after Holland Esch.

01:23:13It's a solo act.

01:23:15Where is Sting?

01:23:16Irish whip.

01:23:18And Lex Luger, living.

01:23:22Hammers away.

01:23:24Whoa.

01:23:25And there's Sting.

01:23:27There he is.

01:23:28Stinger.

01:23:29Pops up that top.

01:23:31Oh, did you see that?

01:23:33The Stinger.

01:23:35That was a little plan of their own.

01:23:37Sting held back a little bit to let Luger set the thing up.

01:23:40So they can clean house on the NWO.

01:23:42And that's exactly what Sting and Luger are doing right now here on Nitro.

01:23:47Stinger has got his game face on.

01:23:51And it is.

01:23:52Sting and Lex Luger.

01:23:54It is on now, folks.

01:23:56It is on.

01:23:57But remember this.

01:23:58We still don't know where Hogan is.

01:24:00He is in the ringside with them.

01:24:02We saw him a little earlier.

01:24:03We know he's in the building.

01:24:04We know he's in the city and the state.

01:24:06He's here.

01:24:07But where is Hulk Hogan?

01:24:08All right.

01:24:09Stay with us.

01:24:10There's nothing but confusion going on here.

01:24:12We're counting down here.

01:24:14We're going to try to bring you Arne Anderson, the giant that match schedule.

01:24:18They're here in the building.

01:24:19But evidently-

01:24:21Look what they're doing here now.

01:24:22They're changing the momentum.

01:24:23They're slowing down the match.

01:24:25They're throwing Sting and Luger off kilter.

01:24:27They're going to dictate the speed of this match.

01:24:30It doesn't make a difference.

01:24:31Sting and Luger are going to go after him.

01:24:33Luger goes after Hull while the Stinger takes care of this.

01:24:37And I'll tell you what.

01:24:38Stinger goes outside of the ring, and he takes him down.

01:24:42He takes him down.

01:24:43Stinger.

01:24:47Stinger in control of the action here.

01:24:50And everyone here is standing.

01:24:52They are just looking in awe at what is taking place.

01:24:55They didn't expect to see this.

01:24:57All right.

01:24:58We understand.

01:24:59I'm also getting confirmation now that the Macho Man Randy Savage is getting

01:25:03his head stitched up backstage.

01:25:06And it's out of control.

01:25:08The entire situation here in WCW is out of control.

01:25:14This NWO thing is beginning to take us apart.

01:25:17But Sting and Luger, it looks to me like they have regained ground here.

01:25:22And it is WCW against NWO.

01:25:26And we are back into the thick of it.

01:25:28And it's happening to you right here on Nitro.

01:25:31And if you think it's out of control right now,

01:25:33just wait till Thursday night, Clash of the Champions.

01:25:36It's starting right now.

01:25:37You can smell the smoke.

01:25:38But you know there's fire.

01:25:39Hogan and Flair at the Clash of Champions

01:25:42this Thursday night, 8 o'clock Eastern, 5 o'clock Boat Time.

01:25:46Stay with us as we're counting down.

01:25:48We're going to stay with you here.

01:25:52Wait a minute.

01:25:53Why was there no DQ?

01:25:54What is Nick Patrick doing here?

01:25:56I can't keep track of this stuff.

01:25:58That was over the top rope.

01:26:00Nick Patrick clearly saw it, didn't call it.

01:26:03And he's looking at this.

01:26:05He's watching this carnage here.

01:26:07Eric, remember, a couple hours ago, the Outsider said,

01:26:10what a great referee Nick Patrick is.

01:26:12With everyone turning on everyone.

01:26:15Double clothesline.

01:26:16Stinger in control.

01:26:17Stinger takes it both down.

01:26:19And look, Patrick's not making anybody get in the ring

01:26:21or out of the ring.

01:26:22He's not making anybody tag legally.

01:26:24They're just letting it go.

01:26:28Well, this is a little bit confusing.

01:26:31Right hand.

01:26:32Scott Hall gets backed up into the corner.

01:26:35With a splash from all the way across the ring.

01:26:39Oh, man, he moved out of the way.

01:26:42And there's no Luger to help him.

01:26:44There's no Luger to help him right now.

01:26:47It doesn't look good.

01:26:48Luger's on the other side of the ring on his knees.

01:26:50He's starting to get up now.

01:26:52Stinger kicked to the floor like a pile of trash.

01:26:55And here's Arne Anderson.

01:26:56Arne Anderson coming up.

01:26:58Clearly, they saw Nick Patrick evidently throwing his hands up

01:27:01and letting anything happen in the ring.

01:27:03The Horseman come out.

01:27:05And what is going on?

01:27:06I can't get a good look at it here.

01:27:09The Horseman come out.

01:27:12Well, they've taken off.

01:27:14They have taken off into the crowd.

01:27:17I can see the tops of their heads going through the sea of people.

01:27:21Nick Patrick literally walked out.

01:27:25He's gone, too.

01:27:26There's no official in that ring.

01:27:28Nick Patrick, ladies and gentlemen, has left the building.

01:27:33Think what you're seeing.

01:27:34The Horseman have come to the aid of Luger and Sting.

01:27:39Now they're still jawing with one another.

01:27:41Patrick's gone.

01:27:43Outsiders are gone.

01:27:45Still, no Hulk Hogan.

01:27:50We saw it a couple weeks ago.

01:27:51They all got into an ambulance together after the attack.

01:27:55You have got the nature boy, Ric Flair, Arne Anderson, in the ring.

01:27:59Let's take a look at this footage.

01:28:01Look at Sting up in the air.

01:28:03He drives Nash right into that corner.

01:28:05Sting thinks he's pretty much in control right now.

01:28:07Look at that.

01:28:08You saw it right there.

01:28:09Nick Patrick pulled him out of the way.

01:28:10He did.

01:28:11He pulled.

01:28:12Nick Patrick, I didn't see it live on the replay.

01:28:14It is more than obvious.

01:28:16No, there's no controversy.

01:28:18The man was paid off.

01:28:22Now, wait a minute.

01:28:23Maybe Hall had his hand on it, and he shoved him, and Patrick pulled him.

01:28:26I don't know.

01:28:27This bites.

01:28:28Trust me.

01:28:29Let's go to Mean Gene.

01:28:31All right.

01:28:32This is Eric Bischoff.

01:28:33I am walking back to the entrance area.

01:28:36Things are totally upside down here tonight.

01:28:38I have no idea what happened to Nick Patrick.

01:28:41I think that happens to be the big question right now.

01:28:43Is this guy on the take?

01:28:45All of a sudden, the New World Order getting the worst of it at the hands of Lex Luger and Sting,

01:28:50and Pow, the referee, walks away, and the clash of champions is coming up this Thursday night.

01:28:55Ric Flair, you and the Horsemen are going to be very prominent on that card.

01:28:59Let's draw the guidelines of history right now.

01:29:06Luger and Sting, I don't like them, but I'm going to play ball with them.

01:29:12You know why?

01:29:14Because they're WCW.

01:29:16Now, get a wide angle.

01:29:18Hogan, since you took it upon yourself to walk out here and proclaim yourself the Immortal One,

01:29:27let me explain something about being a bad guy.

01:29:31The first rule of fighting is you never overmatch yourself.

01:29:36So Nash, you're 6'10", maybe too big for me, but I'm up trying the old pro McMichael on for size.

01:29:47Hall, double A's, got his name written all over you.

01:29:53I don't know who the fourth guy is, but the buzzsaw, the human crippler, can eat him up one side, down the other.

01:30:02Denver, Hogan, you and I are going to style and profile, horseman style.

01:30:12That's it, ladies and gentlemen.

01:30:14That's Thursday night, 8 o'clock Eastern time on our Cessna station, PBS, for the Clash of Champions.

01:30:20From all of us here at Nitro, Eric Bischoff, Bobby Draheen, and Tony Schiavone, and Larry Zavisco, Gene Aukerman, good night, everybody.

01:30:28Good night.

01:30:29Good night, everybody.

01:30:30Good night, everybody.

01:30:31Good night.

01:30:32Good night.

01:30:33Good night.

01:30:34Good night.

01:30:35Good night.

01:30:36Good night.

01:30:37Good night.

01:30:38Good night.

01:30:39Good night.

01:30:40Good night.
