IN IS PER continued from page 6
to Hall, but Nash walked out of the arena
rather than pinning his longtime
friend. In a helpless heap, via countout,
Hall won the match, but Nash won
the war.
Sting and Bret Hart matched up for
the United States Title. Sting's recent
demise continued, as he too received
the beating ot his hie. Hart destroyed
Sting with a baseball bat, delivering
four solid shots to the head. Hart eventually
knocked out Sting for the victory,
and Sting was carted out of the ring,
immobilized on a stretcher.
Hulk Hogan versus The Warrior
was, thanks to Hogan, just as bad as
everyone thought it would be, plain and
simple. Hogan totally screwed up an
attemnt to hnrn The Warrior's face, in
stead igniting a spark at his own waist.
Hogan also misused a"blood capsule
during the match. We were treated to
many of the same moves the two did in
their first meeting at Wrestlemania VI,
just at a slower pace due to Hogan's significant
aging since then. The inexplicably
bloodied Hogan got the pinfall
victory after Horace nailed The Warrior
with a steel chair to the back.
In the night's main event, DDP took
Goldberg to the limit. However, despite
the bold predictions of the likes of Mike
Tenay and Josh Rosen, Goldberg outlasted
the People's Champion to retain
his world title. Goldberg mangled his
right shoulder early during the match
in a collision with the ringpost, which
prevented him from landing an early
jackhammer on DDP. DDP did land a
diamond-cutter, but the champ barely
kicked out of the pin. Goldberg's 155th
victory came as he countered a cutter
with the jackhammer for the three
count. This bout, about the best Goldberg
has done, capped off an overall soliH
effort hv wrw
Now, the bad news: another NITRO
run by Eric Bischoff. Rick Steiner
was forced to make the announcement
of who his tag-team champion partner
would be. Bischoff s choice for Rick:
Kenny Kaos from High Voltage.
PLEASE! No wonder so many stars
are upset-with Bischoff.
Bischoff promised us Ric Flair in
action. Instead he gave us footage from
Flair's title loss to Hulk Hogan at 1994's
Bash at the Beach, Hogan's inaugural
match with WCW. PLEASE! We don't
want to see on NITRO what we all have
in our dusty video collections! Finally,
we listened to Scott Steiner deliver one
of the worst interviews in the history
of wrestling. PLEASE, somebody cut
him off.
NITRO had two flickering stars.
The Warrior, re-signed, spoke for a few
minutes and fended off the nWo. It's
good to see that the old, rope-shaking,
obey-no-rules Warrior might be here
for the long haul. Finally, DDP captured
the U.S. title from Bret Hart.
However, Hart brutally attacked Page
with a chair to close the show. I don't
see how Page could be in any condition
