The match between Randy Savage and the Zodiac (Ed Leslie) was originally going to be Savage vs. Kamala (Jim Harris) with the Zodiac in Kamala's corner. The storyline explanation was that Kamala had supposedly told Dungeon of Doom manager "The Taskmaster" Kevin Sullivan that he was afraid of Savage so Sullivan beat him up and sent him back to Uganda. The real story is that Kamala wasn't really getting paid and left out of frustration. Savage won the match in a brisk 1:30, including taking out a fan who had run into the ring. It was also Ed Leslie's only singles PPV match as the Zodiac.
PPV debuts for Sabu (Terry Brunk), Jerry Lynn (Mr. JL) and Manabu Nakanishi (Kurasawa). It was also Sabu's only WCW PPV match and his second-to-last WCW appearance, ever. Sabu was managed by his uncle the Sheik (Edward Farhat), in his only WCW appearance.
During the Hulk Hogan-The Giant match, Hogan's manager Jimmy Hart turned on him. The Giant held Hogan in a bear hug while the Yeti (Ron Reis) walked down to the ring and they combined for the infamous double-bearhug spot. Lex Luger (Larry Pfohl) and Randy Savage ran down, with Luger turning on Savage by stomping him and putting Hogan and then Savage in the Torture Rack. Hart embraced Luger and they both embraced "The Taskmaster" Kevin Sullivan, thus joining the Dungeon of Doom. The Giant was announced as the new WCW World Heavyweight Champion. It would later be revealed that Hart had set up the contract to allow the title to change hands via disqualification. Ron Reis said years later that the double-bearhug spot was not meant to look like it did.
The Road Warrior Hawk (Mike Hegstrand)-Kurasawa match, which Kurasawa won, was Hawk's third and final singles match ever on PPV. He defeated NWA World Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair by disqualification at NWA Bunkhouse Stampede (1988), and he and Meng (Tonga Fifita) fought to a double-countout at WCW Slamboree: A Legends' Reunion (1995).
