In the back, Bill Mercer interviewed The Rock said he couldn’t deny that the Nature Boy Ric Flair was the man. Rock said he didn’t need to prove he was the man, but tonight he was going to beat the man because there was one thing that he needed more than proving that he was the man and that was the LCW Universal Championship. Rock said Flair could focus on being the man all he wanted to because that would be what would lead to Rock kicking his candy ass.

I’m going to stop skirting around the issue, I’m going to stop beating around the bush, I’m going to train harder than I have in years, I’m going to get back into the shape I used to be, the shape I was when I was a champion, the shape I was before I tied by ship to your anchor and you started bringing me down. I’m going to train to become the champion that I used to be, the champion you will never be, and in one month I’m taking my fight to you myself and taking care of business myself. In one month, LCW Redemption Day will be in my hometown of Kansas City, Missouri, where I won my first of seven NWA World Heavyweight Championships in 1973 and where I beat the Nature Boy Ric Flair for my seventh and final NWA World Heavyweight Championship in 1983. In one month, in the Kemper Arena, I’m going to become the LCW International Championship by kicking your ass.” Race threw down the microphone as a bleeding Vader slowly used the ropes to pull himself up to his feet.

In the back, Bill Mercer interviewed Ric Flair, with valets Baby Doll and Dawn Marie, about his upcoming match with The Rock.

But we’re going to restart this one under one condition: Cowboy Bill Watts has to leave ringside immediately.” Watts threw a fit and said it wasn’t going to happen and tried to get Williams to leave with him, but Williams looked at Watts and pointed toward the entrance ramp sending Watts away. The match continued. After the match, Nikita Koloff came out to congratulate his friend, Magnum TA, as Williams left the ring and grabbed the title from the timekeeper. Williams returned to the ring handed the title to Magnum TA in a show of respect. Williams then turned around and launched himself toward Koloff, laying him out with the spear. Williams exited the ring as Magnum checked on Koloff and yelled at Williams as he left up the entrance ramp. Watts came out and joined Williams on the entrance stage as Magnum helped Koloff to his feet. Koloff stared at Williams and Williams exchanged the stare as the show went off the air.
