Thunder opens with clips from this past week’s Nitro of Terry Funk introducing his Old Age Outlaws. Terry Funk, Larry Zybsco, Arn Anderson, Paul Orndorff.
Following that, we’re shown clips from Earlier Today, of the nWo making their way into the arena, minus Bret Hart. Following that, Bret is shown walking in alone.
First match is announced as Vampiro comes out to a moderate pop, to face Crowbar, who makes his way out lead by David Flair.
Vampiro Vs. Crowbar
*Missed a bit of the beginning of the match, however
Crowbar was dominating the opening minutes*.
Crowbar, executes a guillontine leg drop into a pinning combination for two. Vampiro
escapes and gets to the top ropes, Daphne jumps up on the ropes to distract the ref, as
Flair nails Vampiro with the crowbar. Crowbar climbs the ropes with Vampiro, and attempts
a frankenstiener, but Vampiro counters with a seated powerbomb, into a pin, for the win.
Winner: Crowbar
After the match, Daphane and David pummeled Vampiro until Arn Anderson came down to try and make the save, but had no effect on the crazy Flair, who walked out with Daphne, leaving Crowbar in the ring unconscious. Tenay and Shiavone build up the rest of tonight’s card, which included a evening gown match with Oklahoma Vs. Madusa in an evening gown match. Among out matches. Let’s hope Oklahoma wins this match. While running down tonight’s card, multiple clips from Nitro were shown. Commercial.
Back from break, as the nWo music hits which changes to Hart’s. Hudson points out that Hart is wearing a Calgary Hitmen shirt, and not the usual nWo shirt. Bret states that the fans every right to boo him and throw stuff at him. He says he is making himself sick as his actions, and that he has let people down, the fans, his friends, etc. Says that he is disgusted with what has been happening, and that listening to Funk last week, got him thinking and Funk’s words finally sunk in. Bret Hart states that he is sorry for taking short cuts, and that the nWo is a bunch of bums that are only out for shortcuts. Bret says that he is going to change, he will not be apart of the nWo, and that the pink and black attack is back. Jarrett, Stiener, Nash and Hall can stick the nWo were the sun don’t shine, states Hart. Right on Que., the nWo music starts up as trio of the nWo make their way out. Nash states that Bret is too stupid for his own good, just like in "New York" (WWF). Nash says that the fans do not want heroes. He states that with the nWo, Bret could’ve been a "God". Nash says that the Canadian Hero bullsh*t is dead, and that short cuts and sticking with each other is the way to go. Nash says to come back to the nWo since they are the only ones to care about him. Hart replies by stating that Nash is a big old piece of ****. Bret states that as far as the rest of the nWo is concerned, they can do it the easy way, or the hard way. And that they can come on down to the ring right now. Nash says that the nWo will lay off Bret, and give him a chance to leave. Bret states he isn’t going anywhere and the nWo can come get him. Nash says that, that’s fine and that the nWo will be ending Bret’s career tonight. The nWo music starts back up, as the trio nWo leave the ramp, and leave Bret Hart in the ring alone. Commercial.
