Fall Brawl 1996 was the fourth Fall Brawl event produced by World Championship Wrestling which took place on 29th September 1996

## Background

The main match heading into the show is Scott Hall defending the WCW Heaviweight Championship against Ricky Steamboat. Ricky Steamboat made his return to join Team WCW against NWO, at Hog Wild NWO proceeded to defeat Team WCW and become owners of the company. They made a match between the 5 men in Team WCW which Steamboat won to become NO1 contender to the title in what might be Steamboat's last world title match

Syxx defeated Chris Benoit, Jeff Jarrett and Frankie KBW to become NO1 contender to the US Championship, Eddie Guerrero hates NWO and has cheap attacked them everytime he has gotten the chance and he will fight its sixth member tonight

At Hog Wild, Dean Malenko introduced Rey Misterio Jr. to WCW in a match against him, Rey shocked the world and became CW champion against his old friend, Malenko was pissed as the crowd completely turned on him and supported Rey, he'll get his rematch tonight

At Hog Wild, Steiner Brothers were holders of both the tag titles and the CITL briefcase, Harlem Heat defeated them and won the CITL briefcase and immediatly cashed in afterwards as they became tag champions and Steiner Bros lost everything in 2 minutes. They are scheduled to have their rematch tonight but Nash and HHH added themselves to the match, American Males shockingly defeated Harlem Heat in an episode of Nitro to become the new tag champs so tonight it will be a 4 way match

Sting has been out of action since Uncensored where NWO led their big ambush. NWO have proclaimed that Sting hasn't showed up in all of these months because he's part of New World Order, he just doesn't wanna admit it yet. Ric Flair and Arn Anderson immediatly started believing in it but Luger refused to believe even getting agressive with Arn and Flair because of their opposing views, NWO staged a fake Sting to attack all 3 men and Luger believed it but the real Sting came out to shoot the rumor down, he is not NWO. Sting said he'd be flying solo because of all the lies surrounding him and the people who believed it, Luger was pissed that NWO did this but was even more pissed that Arn and Flair alienated him. Because Flair was on Team WCW he was prohibited from being in WCW PPV's, the only exception would be if he won the NWO TV Championship which he did after lowblowing Arn and winning the title, Flair and Luger will fight each other tonight

Chris Jericho was eliminated by Jushin Liger in an 8 men battle royal to determine the NO1 contender to the CW championship, Jericho started trashing on Liger and all masked wrestlers saying that ever since Muta joined Liger, Muta hasn't been seen on TV so Liger is using these masked wrestlers to take them down. He injured Liger's protege Psicosis and had a match against him at Hog Wild, he put a chair on Liger's leg but Muta returned to try and save him but he failed as Jericho injured Liger anyways. Muta challenged the rookie to a match
