Fall Brawl 1998 was the sixth Fall Brawl event produced by World Championship Wrestling which took place on 19th September 1998

## Background

The main match heading into the show is Goldberg defending the WCW Heaviweight Championship against Meng. At Bash at the Beach Scott Hall and Meng defeated Perry Saturn and Konnan and Kevin Nash and Roddy Piper in an NWO Civil War triple threat where the winners could get a WCW Heaviweight title shot whenever they wanted. Meng challenged Goldberg after Road Wild as he reminded him of himself in 1991, an unstoppable beast with a streak who suddenly went to the top of the company in a short period of time, Meng says he knew the stress could amount and make him stumble and he says that's the main reason why he's finally gonna become WCW Heaviweight champion

Arn Anderson gave Goldberg the choice of who he wanted to face for the US Championship and Goldberg chose NWO Chaos member and former world champion Roddy Piper

NWO Chaos keep urging Steiner Brothers to join a side of New World Order but they refuse to do it as they were part of The Resistance to take down NWO in 1997, Kevin Nash and HHH became the NO1 contenders to the tag titles and will face them tonight

Madusa formed an alliance with ladies of WCW and some managers including Sensational Sherri, Bull Nakano, Sharmell, Luna Vachon, Ms.Elizabeth and Nitro Girl Molly as she was pissed that she was the OG member of NWO, faded away in late 96 and no one remembers her, she formed NWO Ladies to enter the NWO Civil Wars but Arn refused saying she wasn't part of this, Madusa wanted to show everyone as they kept beating up jobbers and lower midcarders, Madusa challenged anyone to a match and The Butcher came up

During a segment for the Hardcore Championship where a bunch of jobbers kept pinning each other, owner of ECW Paul Heyman made his shocking debut in front of a philadelphia crowd as he said Arn Anderson had signed him as the authority figure of the EXTREME division, he retired the hardcore title and the 24/7 rule and tonight will be a 10 men match to determine the inaugural extreme champion in a stipulation never seen before: no DQ's, no countouts, no pinfalls and no submissions, people are eliminated when they start bleeding

Chris Jericho has been trying to answer Goldberg's open challenges but he keeps being interrupted or he keeps forgetting it, he decided to be on the commentator's table throught the show to be able to answer his challenge in the end of the night but Wrath attacked him after losing a match and Jericho was forced to be stretchered out. Jericho said one day he would get Goldberg but now he wanted his revenge on Wrath

NWO Chaos wanted the dark angel Vampiro to join their group and beat up Hogan to make sure he wouldn't win the world title but Vampiro wanted to crush someone's dreams within Chaos to join their group which leader Kevin Nash accepted, Vampiro proceeded to make sure Hogan didn't win the title and a few weeks later Chaos member Stevie Ray shockingly turned on his longtime partner and brother Booker T as Booker's dream was crushed and he was kicked out of NWO Chaos. Booker started targeting Stevie saying he will never find a tag partner as good as him, Stevie took his challenge as he teamed up with Vampiro and will face Booker tonight in a handicap match
