This week's match of the week: Crowbar vs Vampiro
- And we only see the end of this match from Nitro 10/23
- We see copious amounts of Vampiro's explanation interview, though.
- Tony: "We have not seen the last of this feud."
- Except Vampiro's injured and won't be seen for a while.
- We talk a bit more about Win the Brain's money, but I'll save that for later.

Goldberg has to break his mark of 176-0 to get a shot and keep his career.
- Back to Nitro 10/23
  - Sean Stasiak doesn't have any success vs Goldberg
- Tony says will find out what happened at Havoc next week, and moves right onto..

It's time for Ask WCW
- We're doing last week's question again, and asking Disqo this time.
- In case you forget, it was from Adam Leslie.
  I am the Disqo's biggest fan, but what the heck is up with that duck?
- Disqo responds:
  Well, Adam, you wanna' know what the deal is with the duck? Well, I've exceeded every expectation that I've had in professional wrestling. And since 90% of the guys on WCW stink to high heaven, I'm trying to prove that this duck will get over than more than half the roster, including Sting, and including Goldberg, because everywhere I go, there's ten thousand fans in the arena screaming at the top of their lungs (singing) "We want the duck, got to have the duck! Come on! We want the duck, got to have this duck!"

It's time for "WCW Archives" with Mike Tenay
- Bobby's disappeared for this segment.
- Mike's taking us back to Halloween Havoc '95.
- And... Arn Anderson and Brain Pillman vs Ric Flair and Sting

Arn Anderson/Brian Pillman vs Sting/Ric Flair.
- Ric Flair has been attacked by Arn and Brian in the locker room, and isn't at ringside.
- Arn with a double ax handle on Sting's back and picks him up.
- Piledriver attempt is blocked, and turned into a slingshot, which crotches Pillman on the top rope at the same time.
- As Arn staggers back, Sting chops him down to the mat.
- Sting quickly goes to the apron and beals him off the top rope and into the guardrail.
- Sting with measured punches on Arn.
- Arn gets an eye poke and then smashes Sting's head into Pillman's.
  - Brian didn't see it coming and got knocked down.
- Whip, low blow by Arn. Kick to the inner thigh.
- Flair runs into the ring and chases after Arn, pushing down the ref in the process.
- The ref, Randy Anderson, forces him to the apron.
- While this is going on, Arn throws Sting through the ropes and Pillman knocks him into the guardrail.
- Flair is in dress clothes, but takes off his shirt and goes to the corner.
- Sting rolls in, only to get choked by Arn.
- Tag to Pillman.
- Pillman pushes him over to a neutral corner, chop, Sting answers back with a punch, repeat.
- Sting fighting back with kicks and karate chops.
- Pillman with a drop toe hold and a tag to Arn.
- Arn with a knee drop and holds it to choke Sting.
- Chinlock by Arn.
- We skip ahead to Arn trying to hold down Sting during a test of strength.
- Sting escapes, and goes for the tag, but Arn pulls him down by his feet at the last second.
- Pillman pulls Flair away form the corner to make sure, and Ric chases Pillman around the ring.
- Meanwhile, Arn with an abdominal stretch
- Of course, Pillman gives him an extra hand.
- Skip ahead again, with Pillman in, and Sting taking out both Brian and Arn.
- It leaves Sting out, Pillman out, Arn out, and Flair dying for the tag.
- Sting slowly gets up, and he makes the tag, as Pillman tags in Arn.
- Flair is off the ropes and punches Sting.
- That was so awesome.
- It's a three man beatdown.
- Sting tries to fight back, but he's being triple teamed and it doesn't last long.
- Nick Patrick is in to help stop the violence, but Sting still gets mugged by the Horsemen.
- Cut to an interview with the Horsemen in the aisle a few moments later.
  - Flair: "First thing you learn is, you don't jump on Double A! Second thing you learn is, you don't play around with Flyin' Brian! The third thing you learn is, you never mess around with the Nature Boy! And the fourth thing is, you don't walk, talk, or breathe, unless the Horseman want you to! Right Brian?
  - Pillman: "Wooo! Hehahah."
  - Anderson: "Be careful what you wish for! All you blood thirsty fans out there that asked for this, well, you got it now deal with it!"
  - Flair: "Oh, we're reunited, and it feels so good! Horseman style, Wooo!"
- The bad thing about showing good stuff like that is that it illustrates how good WCW could be, and how much it really does now suck.
- Back in the studio, Tony and Mike talk about it back in the studio and how things changed after that.
- They talk about Sting's career and Brian's death.

Moving on, it's time for win Brain's money.
- Here come Kwee-Wee and Paisley
- "Don't make me angry in the Hardcore division. And we're very interested in taking Bobby's money."
- The game will start after this break.

It's time for "Win the Brain's money"
- The Brain stole Lanny Poffo's outfit.
- If the Kwee-Wee and Paisley win, they'll donate the money.
  - If they get a question right, they can keep the money or try to go for more.
- Question 1: For $250 - Name the Wrestler who defeated Sid Vicious At Mayhem '99
  - Heenan doesn't need the multiple choices, he knows it's Goldberg.
- Question 2: For $500 - What city did the first Mayhem originate in?
  1. Toronto
  2. Detroit
  3. Jacksonville
  4. Indianapolis

- He looks in the blank book, and can't find an answer.
- But he guesses Toronto, and is correct.
- Question 3: For $750 - What type of match did Vampiro and Alex Wright Have at Mayhem last year?
  1. Cage
  2. Texas Death Match
  3. Vampire On a Pole
  4. Chain
- Brain says it was Vampire on a Pole match...
- But it was a Chain match, so Brain's out $750.
- Kwee-Wee and Paisley can keep the money and walk, or go for $1000.
  - They want to leave, but Bobby tries to talk to them into staying.
  - Kwee-Wee decides to go for it.
- Question 4: How many new champs were crowned at mayhem
  1. 3
  2. 0
  3. 1
  4. 2
  Bobby tries to make a phone call or use the book, but he's done that before.
- He polls the audience. Well, just one person, Tenay!
- They negotiate terms. Tenay wants cash, not a check. And the money up front.
- Tenay gives him an answer that we don't hear.
- Kwee-Wee looks angry about the deal making.
