## Details

* Scott Hall decides to pick Goldberg's next challenger as randomly picked, it's gotta be someone strong that's able to defeat all of them to be able to defeat Goldberg, he makes a battle royal between every member of NWO Wolfpac to settle it tonight
* Malenko is gonna pin Parka when Jericho punts Malenko's head in so David Flair takes advantage and wins
* Brian Adams reveals the count is now, NWO Hollywood: 13; NWO Wolfpac: 14; NWO Chaos: 11
* Eddie says he's disappointed that Scott Steiner joined Kevin Nash, Scott says "I didn't want this at first, I promised myself I wasn't gonna join any NWO but then I heard something VERY important, if Nash becomes co-owner he will end one of the most corrupt men on WCW, Sting, and hey listen there's NO ONE I hate more here than Sting, it was the obvious choice, also give more talent title shots? This is made for me, I don't know what the hell you're doing on NWO Wolfpac because I know you hold a grudge against Sting too."
* Stevie Ray tells his brother that he never wanted any of this, he refused to kick out Booker but he would've been kicked out too if he protested, but he needed to make a career out of himself, he still needs money flowing into his home, he has a family. Booker says he'll never forgive him, Stevie says he can make a deal and get him a tag title match, Booker says he'll believe it when he sees it
* NWO Wolfpac meet with Heyman backstage saying that RVD could find his footing on Wolfpac and unleash the extreme era to new heights, Heyman says he'll think about it
* Final 2 in the battle royal are Eddie and Hall when Jericho shows up and eliminates them both, Hall shakes hands with Jericho and announces that he will indeed be the man facing Goldberg, Goldberg spears Hall as he goes face to face with Jericho
* The main event is uncomfortable as The Mob's members just brutalize them, Konnan is gonna knock Miss Elizabeth out with a bat when Savage enters the ring saying that's his wife and they start brawling, The Mob locks Savage on the corner, Hogan and the rest of NWO Hollywood members enter the ring and tell them to relax, Hogan says he doesn't want unloyal members on Hollywood so they will wrestle each other and the loser leaves the group
