The Filthy Animals and The Revolution started the fight before the champions even came to
the ring. Once they came out, all six remained inside, each team trying to annihilate one
another. Daffney Unger screamed at the top of her lungs for no reason. Malenko attacked
Mysterio outside the ring as Perry Saturn headed into the crowd. Douglas and Malenko put
Mysterio onto a table by the stage. Saturn appeared from above on the first tier of the

retaining the tag team titles. Rey Mysterio was wheeled out on a stretcher.

Oklahoma, with no time to change his pants, took his beating from the Revolution bodyguard as Madusa made her way to the ring.

Power Plant Elite at ringside. The nWo music played and the band hit the stage with their
bevy of beauties. Nash berated Funk's attire. Funk told Jarrett he would be in three
matches - a wrestling match, a bunkhouse match, and a steel cage match. Funk told Jarrett
he would be facing three of Terry's very close friends and the referee would be Chris
Benoit. Bret said that wasn't fair, so Funk told him his match for the night. Bret would
be defending the WCW Title against fellow nWo member Kevin Nash. The Funker said if they
took it easy on each other, they would be suspended for a year without pay and Bret would
be stripped of the title. In closing, the commish told Scott Steiner that he would get his
mouth washed out with soap.

This was a five-minute face to face interview to try to get some of their problems out in
the air. They were told that if they lost their tempers and came to blows, they would be
fined $50,000. DDP tried to antagonize Buff, but Bagwell said he and Kimberly were just
friends. Page accused Buff of hitting on his wife at a bar in Little Rock, but Bagwell
once again said he and Kim were only friends. Backstage, Kimberly watched on a monitor.
Bagwell said he would take a lie detector test. DDP said the boys tell him that Buff brags
about Kim's birthmark. When Buff said all the boys have seen it, DDP punched him twice in
the face but, as he turned to leave, Bagwell attacked Page with a police baton and slapped
his face, all the while still proclaiming his innocence.

Tito on top and Benoit counted the fall, making Jarrett's record for the night 0-2 so far.

connected with a headbutt that slowed both men down. Hart went to work on the left knee of
Big Sexy, wearing him down for the patented Sharpshooter. Nash recovered and maneuvered
Bret into the corner, delivering a series of stinging elbows to the head. A low blow
brought The Hitman to the canvas. Hart returned the favor, catching Nash with a back kick

with a lead pipe. Anderson took over as the referee as Sid made his way to the ring. The
