## Details

* Arn says that what happened last week wasn't fair to anyone, he vacates the belt and makes tonight's main event a fourway for the vacant WCW Heaviweight title between US champion Sting, Bret Hart, Scott Hall and Kevin Nash(this is what leads Chris Jericho to set up a strike)
* Jericho does a promo on the CWs and says this is his last hurrah in the division as after Uncensored he will be joining the heaviweight division, he says for his last hurrah he wants to end it as CW champion
* Raven in a great backstage segment asks Konnan "have you found him yet....have you found your mole. You keep adding people to your Mob without even stopping to think if they are just planted there by me, you're getting desperate, I can see it, soon Raven's Flock will be the leading group of WCW. But I am issuing a challenge to anyone in The Mob, face me in the ring next week in a no DQ match, if I lose I'll JOIN The Mob. That's how much I'm sure i'll kick your guys' asses."
* The Mob is gonna destroy Vampiro but he runs away, Konnan gets a mic "Raven, I know the ones I can trust...and next week you WILL get a challenge."
* Scott Steiner says it's insulting that they try to put him in a tag team yet again, Malenko comes out and says him and Scott HAVE GREAT CHEMISTRY AS A TEAM AND THAT'S SOMETHING SCOTT CAN'T DENY, Scott punches him "NEVER put me in the same caliber as you." Scott makes an open challenge to anyone in the back, out comes Tank Abbott to boos
* Tank is about to win when Malenko punts Tank ending the match in a DQ, Tank knocks Malenko out
* Meng is leaving when The Great Muta attacks him on the stage with chairs, he doesn't pin him because it would be too easy but Kanyon takes the chance and pins Meng but he kicks out at 2, Kanyon runs away
* Rude says "THIS MAN IS NOW 15-0, HE'S GONNA BECOME CHAMP SOONER THAN LATER. AND BARBARIAN, WE WANT YOU O U T."
* David rolls Hennig up and uses the ropes to win, The Hacker shows up on the titantron with a leak, he knows one of the teams in the tournament as it'll be Curt Hennig and David Flair
* Knoble and RVD have a tremendous match out of nowhere where the whole crowd is in their feet but Kevin Nash ruins it all ending it in a DQ and beating up both men
* During the main event Arn shows up and turns heel on Sting right as Sting was about to win. The ending is Bret and Hall both pin Nash at the same time causing a nonfinish, Arn says they will settle this next week in a lumberjack match between Bret and Hall
