Featured matches on the undercard were Diamond Dallas Page versus Raven in a Raven's Rules match for the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship, Hollywood Hogan and Kevin Nash versus Roddy Piper and The Giant in a Baseball Bat on a Pole match and Lex Luger and Rick Steiner versus Scott Steiner and Buff Bagwell in a tag team match.

The event featured wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.^[3]

In 2016, Kevin Pantoja of 411Mania gave the event a rating of 4.5 [Poor], stating, "There was certainly some potential on this show. The Television Title, United States Title and Chavo/Ultimo Dragon matches were good stuff. Most of the event was filled with the classic WCW overbooking and referee bumps. There were a few matches that were absolutely dreadful, but there are some things worth a look. Check out the matches I mentioned and skip the rest."^[4]
