A police brigade led the New Blood limousine into the garage of the Richmond Coliseum. Eric Bischoff, Vince Russo and Bill Goldberg got out and entered the building.

As the announcers intro'd the show, Scott Hudson sat at the table wearing a tie, but no shirt. He said it was his punishment for a comment he made last week regarding Vince Russo without a shirt on.

Interview: Eric Bischoff and Vince Russo
Bischoff said that all he ever heard from people like Hogan, Flair and DDP was that Bill Goldberg was not a team player and was only out for himself. The hired gun of the New Blood came to the ring, surrounded by a chorus of boos. Goldberg said not to ask him why, buy rather why the hell not? He said he held the fans responsible for his making a deal with the devil. Goldberg said it was win/win situation; Bischoff and Russo got what they wanted, and he could stand over the bodies of everyone that stabbed him in the back. Big Sexy came to the stage, telling the former Atlanta Falcon that people like Hogan, Flair, Hall, Nash and Sting made Goldberg what he was in WCW. Stating he would not leave without Bill's blood on his hands, Nash charged the ring, only to be stopped by the Richmond police department. Russo told the officers not to arrest him because he would be facing Goldberg later in the show.

Backstage, Jeff Jarrett asked The Cat to book him in a match against Hollywood Hogan.

In the parking garage, as Kevin Nash's nephew watched on, Big Sexy was put into a squad car to cool down. Scott Steiner charged after Russo, but the boss got away as the police held onto Big Poppa.

The brawl continued into one of the Nitro girl cages, before Funk fell through a stack of tables below. Big Vito went under the ring for a table, but The Funker delivered a low blow. As Funk staggered in the ring, Vito finally set up the table on the outside. Vito piledrove Funk off the apron, through the table on the floor for the win.

Adams press slammed The Franchise above his head, showing his tremendous strength. Buff came in and cleaned house on Kronic, delivering his patented Blockbuster from the second rope. Douglas reached in and tagged Buff, insisting on finishing their opponents off. This verbal exchange gave Kronic enough time to recoup and drop Buff hard to the canvas. They set up Douglas for the High Time and left with their hands raised in victory. After the bout, Douglas clocked Bagwell with a foreign object, telling Buff that he just got "franchised."

Backstage, The Cat asked Doug Dellinger where Hulk Hogan was. Doug said he didn't know, so Miller took a seat to wait for the number one contender.

Although already busted open from the guitar shot, Hogan pounded on the WCW Champion, looking to exact some revenge for the attack earlier. On the outside, it was more of the same, with The Hulkster using the guardrail and even his weightlifting belt as weapons in the war. The Chosen One took control, using a metal chair on the former champion. As Jarrett swung the chair again, Kidman grabbed it and threw it to Hogan.

Bro made the save, as Russo and Goldberg walked away laughing.

He looked Kanyon in the eye and told Chris he was the only man in the business Page ever took under his wing to pass on the knowledge he learned from legends like Jody Hamilton, Dusty Rhodes, and Jake Roberts. DDP ended by saying that if being in the business meant dealing with people like Eric Bischoff, he was done.
