during the match. Hak kept popping up each time he was knocked down. A
table was brought in, which Hak was put through. Hak caned Bam Bam Bigelow.

to Raven, which he used to wrap around the hands of Hak. Raven clocked Hak
with four chair shots. Bigelow entered the ring and gave Raven Greetings
from Asbury Park, but Bigelow chose not to pin him and instead grab another

WCW permanently. Before the match, Ric Flair had a statement. Flair loudly
told the referee not to stop the match if there were any little scratches,
but rather real blood. Flair told the a fan in the crowd to shut up, which
received a small course of boos. Early in the match, Hollywood Hogan called
out to the fans with his ear, which was unusal. Hogan dragged down the
