Warning: flashing effects/colourful effects/fire/medical

Commentary Award goes to: Bobby " The Brain" Heenan/"Weasel" for putting his opinion across about the trust between Hogan & Sting as they team up the night vs. "The Four Horsemen's" "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair & "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson [yes Heenan did also bring up briefly the trust between Flair and Anderson; but that isn't the main focus point here] and goes to check on the condition of "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff/provides as things are right now, later on he speculates of the welfare of Orndorff and I know he makes a blooper getting mixed up between two wrestlers names but he corrects himself; "Is going to beat Hogan, I mean Savage."

Wrestling Award goes to: "The Four Horsemen's" "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair &"The Enforcer" Arn Anderson vs. Sting & Hulk Hogan: Tag Team Match. [Here is something for you to look out for; seemingly some guy with a cap facing forward has switched sides from a Hogan fan to a Horsemen;  as he stands up turned around to face us the viewers; rips up a Hogan shirt and begins the Horsemen gesture, I would suggest that he had this premeditated as he has different clothing on so it wasn't spontaneous as he throws it into the ring and Savage deals with it and on a closer inspection of the replay he had Hogan's shirt in his hand so this was indeed premeditated]

Promo Award goes to: [just away from the entrance ramp] "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews "Dungeon of Doom's" "The Total Package" Lex Lugar  [with "The Mouth of the South" Jimmy Hart] as they basically talk about things that Lugar should already be the WCW World Heavyweight Champion, leading up to Starrcade '95: World Cup of Wrestling  the WCW World Heavyweight Savage and basically Lugar having his number [we get to see footage of what he means.] in the Triple Threat Match at this event including "The Four Horsemen" Ric Flair vs. Sting.

Later on 

[just away from the entrance ramp] "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews "The Four Horsemen's" "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson & Flyin Brian; basically Brian runs his mouth about this and that including Orndorff,  Flair begins to talk about the main event with Hogan and Sting. From down the ramp Orndorff interrupts which he apologises but essentially he isn't going to take that from Brian; unfortunately things escalate to where Orndorff gets majorly laid out by The Horsemen.

Later on

[just away from the entrance ramp] "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews Sting, Hogan and the WCW World Heavyweight Champion  "Macho Man" as they talk about his upcoming itinerary for an example defending his championship "The Dungeon of Doom's The Giant" live on TNT/Nitro, including the kayfabe reference between father and son of  André the Giant and The Giant.

Later on/finally [in the middle of the ring] Okerlund interviews; Hogan, Sting and the WCW World Heavyweight Champion Savage in a nutshell; resolve things so that they are all on the same page; so in one way or another they can go up against; the heels that are facing them at the moment; be it the Dungeon of Doom and/or The Four Horsemen

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent: as you can see every promo section of this episode is let's be glowingly positive to begin with; they are very noteworthy, now let's be slightly less glowing [not negative, but realistic] they do a lot of the heavy lifting of this episode, generally speaking gets the okay TV matches minus the main event obviously. But even I can't ignore the glaringly obvious as I have already referenced the promo segments do a lot of the heavy lifting of this episode and on top of that we even get a Slim Jim's advertisement/commercial
