(Note: This was the first supercard for LOW, WrestleCade I, which is a combination of WrestleMania and Starrcade. I even patterned the show after the early major shows and had some preliminary bouts to open things up. The nWo made a huge statement on the show with Hogan pinning Sammartino to win the six-man tag. It was overall a real fun show but I was disappointed with the main event finish being a count out though it was a good match. This show also marked the debuts of Ivan Koloff, S.D. Jones, and the bootleg Roddy Piper.)
