He made his WCW television debut on the October 15 episode of "Saturday Night", defeating Paul Lee. Twelve days later, he made his pay-per-view debut at Halloween Havoc, defeating Doug Somers. On November 3, he gained a non-title victory over WCW TV Champion Arn Anderson at a house show in Charleston, West Virginia. Hammer would go on to amass a 42-0 record competing on both house shows and television before finally having his streak ended when he lost a match to Cactus Jack at "Clash of the Champions XVII". At Starrcade, Hammer teamed with Big Josh in a losing effort to Steve Austin and Rick Rude.
