LOW International was being run over by the nWo at this point and it was shaping up to be a huge war in my fed.)

LOW World Heavyweight title: Buddy Rogers© defeated Larry Zbyszko (submission - Figure Four Leglock) to retain the title

(Note: Stan Lane here? I made a quick booking decision to remove him from the Midnight Express in LOW South and move him to my LOW Midwest/West Coast fed. That left Eaton and Condrey together as the team and without me having to try and explain a breakup in storyline. A weak booking decision I know but I felt it was best and I also didn't want to have the Express as a Freebird-like team at this point. Anyway, Lane would cross paths again with his old buddies down the line in LOW ;D)

(Note: A big boast by Hogan in Apter's corner was followed by those darn dice failing the nWo as they lost the three marquee bouts that followed ;D The Samoan Island Tribe debuted with a loss for LOW International on this show, and ironically they remained winless in this fed until being sent to the castoff pile.)
