Comments: I know Heenan is meant to be heel, so I get it, but when he asks The Dream about the fan base, even though he is just described what it is like [basically the answer to the question, before the question is asked.] I am going to put this down as a misstep, in the ring one of the camera people have accidentally gotten too close to the wrestlers [Irish with turnbuckle spot,] so you can see Sting saying something, let's try and keep kayfabe alive shall we. Schiavone has a little blooper on commentary when he says leg dreag takedown, when he should have said leg drag takedown, but then again you should have said corkscrew leg takedown. I think he got the idea that he had made a tiny mistake when I think both of his commentary on as repeat what he is just said and then he says something to the effect of we have fun here.

Basic Result: Sting picks up the victory to make it World Championship Wrestling 4 New Japan Pro Wrestling 3 - which means your winners of the inaugural World Cup of Wrestling is World Championship Wrestling

Basic walk-through of this event:

* Tony Schiavone & Bobby "The Brain" Heenan/"Wiesel: Commentary talk about what they have just seen with Sting's theme music "The Man Called Sting"

* "Mean" Gene Okerlund: Interviewer is in the ring with team WCW as they are celebrating this momentous occasion, he talks to Sting and then put over this competition.

* Bobby "The Brain" Heenan/"Wiesel," Tony Schiavone & "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes: Commentary appearing on-screen to talk about how things right now. Tony Schiavone puts over our next match and then sends us to a new package of them; Sting vs. “The Dungeon of Doom” "The Total Package" Lex Luger vs. "The Four Horsemen's "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair; Triple Threat Tag Match [flip the coin; to see which ones go head-to-head first whilst the third man waits on the outside on the ring apron to be tagged in;] winner to take on the WCW Heavyweight World Champion “Macho Man" Randy Savage tonight in our main event for the WCW Heavyweight World Championship; excellent video package put together and it mentions the stipulation I have already mentioned.

* Tony Schiavone: Commentary: whilst  Penzer is doing his thing Schiavone is explaining the rules of this match

* Dave Penzer: Ring Announcer saying stipulations and competitors.

* Coin toss: even though Schiavone makes reference to it, we don’t actually see it; Lex Lugar is on the ring apron to begin this match.

* Tony Schiavone: Commentary: makes reference to the fact that whomever wins this match/match slot will then turn around go head-to-head in the main event for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship against Savage
