Miscellaneous Segments

Scott Norton runs out from the back and begins to accost the announce team. McMichael starts to defend them, but from the back comes Macho Man Randy Savage. He says he’s wiling to fight Norton right now. Instead, security comes and escorts Norton to the back. Their match will instead be next week.

A video package is played for “an incoming WCW superstar” which is Sabu! It’s just clips of Sabu doing high spots set to metal music, so it’s pretty fantastic.

Mean Gene Okerlund is out in the ring, but not to announce the main event. He’s out to announce the winner of a draw for a Harley Davidson. He also announces two matches for WCW Saturday Night : Johnny B. Badd vs Dirty Dick Slater, and Sting/Savage vs the Blue Bloods.

A promo for Mr. Wall Street (known in WWF as Irwin R. Schyster) is played. He even says “I’m sure the I.R.S. is going to be watching me real close.” I’d never even heard of this gimmick, but it was cool to see the promo.
