World Title Match

Bill Goldberg vs Sting vs Lex Luger vs Bret Hart

Winner: Bret, now as a Hart mark I hope he wins but I think with Mayhem being in Canada Bret will walk out champion and setup Hart-Goldberg at Starrcade.

No Disqualification

Jeff Jarrett vs Sid Vicious

Winner: Jarrett, knowing how wily he is Jarrett will have an ace up his sleeve.

United States Title

Scott Hall vs Diamond Dallas Page

Winner: Hall, as unrealiable as he is I think Nash will get involved, however I think Hall will be a short term champ and lose the strap to someone like Chris Benoit down the road.

Elimination Match

Konnan, Eddie Guerrero & Rey Mysterio Jr. vs Shane Douglas, Dean Malenko & Perry Saturn vs Ric Flair & Chris Benoit & David Flair

Winners: Ric, Benoit, and David, it looks like Benoit is getting a push and for that to continue he needs to look good in this match and come out on the winning side.

Curt Hennig vs Buff Bagwell

Winner: Buff, I'm a big Hennig fan but at this point what does a win for him accomplish.

I liked that show as I feel you did a good job in making it seem like a 1999 WCW show. It's good to see you researched the angles they had going on and are sticking to them. That bit with Nash acting like Cornette probably would have made for funny TV. Kutgw and I hope Bret wins the title.
