Trivia:

Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and a "mystery partner" (ultimately revealed to be Hulk Hogan) fought Randy Savage, Sting and Lex Luger to a no contest.

The night that WCW's best died

One of the best PPV's that WCW has EVER done. Not because of the talent, but because a twenty year veteran babyface Hulk Hogan joined the "bad guys", and formed unarguably the biggest threat in professional wrestling today, the New World Order!!!
