World Championship Wrestling is in turmoil. Hollywood Hogan joining the nWo in July spelled major trouble, as they have taken over! Beat downs, spray paint and utter humiliation. WCW wrestlers such as the Macho Man, Sting & Ric Flair have not been able to stall the tidal wave that is the New World Order.

Having defeated WCW's greatest warriors at WarGames, the nWo are riding high, also having completely taken over WCW. The Macho Man is standing strong against Hollywood Hogan and the nWo but has continuously gotten his ass beat over and over again. And to rub salt in the wounds even further, the previous week, the nWo got at his ex-wife, Miss Elizabeth, and are trying to bring her into the stable. The Macho Man was livid! Is she already in the nWo. Is it a set up? We're looking for answers here today.

Also, love him or hate. We got the debut of Double J Jeff Jarrett in WCW. The pattern has been that guys coming over from the WWF to WCW have joined the nWo. Is Jeff Jarrett the latest addition to the nWo?

Really cool ending to a match between Chris Benoit & Rick Steiner.

And Arn Anderson of the Four Horsemen is set to take on Lex Luger. A feud stemming from when they were teammates at WarGames against the nWo. Arn blames Lex for being the one to tap out and cost the team. They will face off at Halloween Havoc.

The Wrestling Expert & The Frozen Asian join the show to review this classic footage...
