Thunder
- Cat books himself and Booker in a tag match against Steiner and Nash for the World Title for later, as well as Sting vs Jarrett. It's later made a 2 out of 3 Falls Match.

- Jarrett was also offered a World Title shot by Nash, so he and Sting make their match a contender's match. Jarrett gets the first fall with the Stroke, Sting gets the 2nd fall with a roll up. There's a ref bump, Sting gets Jarrett in the Deathlock and somehow has the bell run even though he's not the ref and the ref is still down, so he sort of wins.
- Kronik beat Filthy Animals and Harris Brothers after High Time on one of the Harrises. Adams is then hit in the face with a chain wrapped bat.

WCW New Blood Rising

Our opening video package recaps hypes our World Title situation, plus the 3-way dance and the "shoot" issues behind the scenes. Then we see fans getting pumped about the 3-way before we go out to the arena. We're live from the Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver, British Columbia up in the Great White North. Schiavone welcomes us to the show and we get to our first match. Double Ladder Match for 3 Count's Gold Record & Recording Contract: 3 Count (w/ Tank Abbot) vs The Jung Dragons Pre-Match : So presumably, it seems the idea of a double ladder match is that each time will go for something different, and this isn't winner take all...? Tony tells us that 3 Count is more concerned with the gold record, and the Dragons want the contract so 3 Count can't make any more records. Jamie-San and Helms start this off  with some quick chain wrestling.  Then everyone rushes for the ladders set up by the ramp. Shannon and Evan into the guard rail. Yang has brought a ladder ...

WCW Spring Stampede 2000

We get an opening video package which starts with Russo's hatred for Flair, then a recap of Bischoff and Hogan's issues. Then we cut to Eric and Russo in the back, and apparently Hogan's checked himself out of the hospital, much to Eric's confusion. Kidman says they just need to fire up the hummer and finish what they started.  Another video package set to music, highlighting everything that went down in the last week or so, then to the arena for the opening pyro, live from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois. Tony Schiavone, Scott Hudson and Mark Madden are on commentary, so I guess Mark recovered from his attack by Tank. They run down the card for tonight, going over the tournaments and the Millionaires Club's chances. They also tell us that Russo and Eric have made it clear to the referees that they don't want them to jump the gun and throw matches out immediately, so the DQ rule will be a more relaxed. Well at least they explained it. Then we get to our...

Recap of what happened with Rock and the McMahons on Smackdown. We're live from the Cajundome in Lafayette, LA for the go-home episode of Summerslam. JR is here by himself unsure where King is for the time being. Rock is here to get the show started. He gets in his usual cheap pops. He uses the fact that Louisiana is shaped like a boot to transition into wanting to take his own boot, put some jambalaya on it, some gumbo on it, some Louisiana hot sauce on it, and shove it so far up Trips' ass it comes out of his mouth, then put some more hot sauce on it, turn it sideways and stick it up Angle's ass. He says it's the only way they'll ever be united, because they have different agendas, pointless goals, that being to take away his title and win the heart of Stephanie who he calls different variations of a slut. He's not thinking about Summerslam he's thinking of payback tonight. Cue Commissioner Foley. He knows how it feels to be so consumed with hatred that no...
