Comments: the generally only negative I have is this; why did Hogan come out with Sullivan’s face paint markings? Now this is where I am going to make myself look stupid, because I am now going to contradict myself; on one hand taking two seconds to think about it; I think it was meant to imply maybe hoping is embracing his dark side more. But on the other hand putting their potential reason to one side, I don’t get it; it had no bearing in the match/match slot whatsoever, so just maybe it was that point I have already made reference to and nothing more. The commentary team really put across how serious this entire situation is including for one example having to watch tomorrow's WCW Nitro to find out more and then talking more about this ongoing situation which is unravelling right in front of our eyes and yes they made reference to André the Giant, the crowd played their part also as well, what with them buying into it what they were seeing.

Basic Result: The Dungeon of Doom's The Giant [with "The Taskmaster" Kevin Sullivan] picks up the W.

Basic walk-through of this event:

* Tony Schiavone & Bobby "The Brain" Heenan/"Wiesel": Commentary talk about what they had just seen over video replays and then we go back to live footage in the ring, then Schiavon and Heenan appear on-screen to carry on discussing what has just happened, Heenan standing up talking about bits and pieces and clapping to what just happened including promoting watching Nitro tomorrow and there are other television programming; with hopefully answers to the question what just happened? We return to live footage around the ring with Schiavone signing off from this event.

* Ending credits: I like the backdrop to the ending credits of this pay-per-view, imaginative yet highly creative art.

This Pay-Per-View receives: 7/10, this pay-per-view is good; the whole matches/match slot and the event outlay in a nutshell is good. But in this version I can be a bit more expansive on what I say here; it wasn't lost on me that this event was either deliberately or purely coincidental, but probably more deliberately, this is just my opinion and speculation on my part, that this event was designed to put over 4 wrestlers the WCW World Heavyweight Champion Hogan, The Giant, Savage and Lugar. My opinion is based on fact and observation meaning we get to see these wrestlers more than once throughout this event and either number the side the number I had chosen to rate this event by was either just too low or high, I went with the number I could easily justify.

The highest ranking match on this card based on attributes that we get to see would be: The Dungeon of Doom's The Giant [with "The Taskmaster" Kevin Sullivan] vs. the WCW World Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan [with "The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart;] Singles Match for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship with 51/60.

The lowest ranking match on this card based on attributes that we see would be: Sabu [with The Sheik] vs. Mr. JL; Singles Match with 29/60.
