WCW's Final Year

Nitro Recap package for last week. Live from the London Arena in London, England for this edition of Nitro. Welcomed by Schiavone, joined by Stevie Ray and Tenay which is a nice change, no Madden tonight. The WCW roster makes their way out to the ring, followed by the CEO Ric Flair with mic in hand. He calls this the greatest collection of athletes under one roof in the world, the greatest company in the business today and he's proud to be there. Onto business. He starts with Sanders saying he has a lot of stroke and rank as commissioner, decisions to make and he respects it, but Ric has the ability to override him at any time, and warns him to stay on track, play by the rules, give the fans what they want.
