Nitro Highlights
We see a recap of Nitro.
Nitro Highlights’ featuring the match between WCW United States champion Sting and WCW World Heavyweight champion Hulk Hogan that ended when Vader hits the ring to attack both men for the double DQ! Vader throws a mullet wearing referee out of the way and then he attacks Hogan and Sting.
Vader destroys Sting and Hogan with those clobbering blows.
“It’s Time! It’s Time! It’s Vader Time!”
Vader delivers his gorilla-grunting routine mocking Hogan!
“‘Who’s the Man?’
“I fear no man and I feel no pain!”
Vader attacks! Chokeslam to Hogan! Chokeslam to Sting!
Hogan starts firing away on Vader. No effect! Vader hammers Hogan down, but he Hulks Up and starts punching him again.
Eric Bischoff says “We need to get some policement out here! The situation is out of control!”
Suddenly, alot of sirens are heard, and a ton of policemen, enter the building to get the situation under control…
Hogan absolutely snaps, and starts beating the shit out of Vader with the steel chair. The referee tries to stop him, and Hogan hits that referee with a chair shot. A new ref comes out, and he hits that referee with a chair, too!
Vader gets back up, and Hulk Hogan hits him more with the steel chair and he goes after him on the floor!
Head of Security Doug Dellinger brings a billy club with him to stop this madness!
Vader is being held back by security officers. They are trying to drag Vader away from the ring as the locker room empties.
Steve “Mongo” McMichaels and William “The Fridge” Perry come running down to talk some sense into Hogan while Doug Dillinger is trying to take the chair, and Hogan hits Doug Dellinger with the chair too! And he chases “Mongo” and “The Fridge” off with the steel chair! He gets back in the ring and looks absolutely insane.
And we have a short commercial break!
Back from break, “Mean Gene” is with Hulk Hogan and Commissioner Bockwinkel. Gene says Hogan may have bitten off more than he can chew as far as his probation goes. Hogan says its bullcrap, because he is “The Immortal Hulk Hogan”! He is larger than life! He says that his name is still on the World Title.
Hogan would get physical with Commissioner Bockwinkel, claiming to be fed up with what is going on. This led to Hogan attacking him from behind before other babyfaces stepped in.
In the aisleway, Vader is trying to come back out, but security are trying to hold him back by his arms. Hogan bolts from the ring with the chair and destroys all with more chair shots, and Vader starts bleeding as we cut away.
Also clips of “Macho Man” Randy Savage defeating Bam Bam Bigelow.

“Hey, it’s Nitro! Remember that anything can happen!”
“WCW United States champion Sting will be taking on “Lord” Steven Regal up next.”
Lord Steven William Regal is a stereotypical British gentleman with a mean streak, and could often come across like an Upper-Class Twit. Despite the fact that he usually played a snobby heel, Regal is one of the toughest men in wrestling history. Deceptively strong and in tremendous condition, he is a master of every wrestling hold and known maneuver. He is the finest scientific wrestler in the world today.
Huge pop for Sting. The Stinger is clearly the most popular wrestler in World Championship Wrestling.
Explosive and athletic bodybuilder; “The Franchise of WCW” Sting is ridiculously fast and agile for a guy his size and he is strong enough to slam super heavyweights such as Vader, Bam Bam Bigelow and “Big” John Tenta.
