Paul talks about how this is a place where dreams come true. He spent over twenty years watching Kane watch his brother and about how Kane wanted to be like Taker. Bearer told him that Kane could be better than him. For the first time, Taker is in Kane's shadow. Here's the belt presentation. Patterson isn't here due to a family emergency which is legit if I remember correctly.

Vince goes to put the title on Kane but here's Austin. He says Kane never busted him open which is true. Austin wants a rematch right here tonight. He keeps telling Vince to make it but Vince is hesitant. If the people want it, why not do it? Bearer says it's all right with him if it's all right with Kane. Now Austin yells at Kane, talking about how it was Taker who won the title last night and in a great bit of manipulation, Austin says Kane will always want to know if he could do it himself. Kane nods yes to Austin and the title match is on for later.

Darren Drozdov vs. Steven Regal Sable introduces Regal, who sadly enough is just Steven Regal, British guy. I hadn't realized it yet but Lawler is now on commentary both hours. Sable sits in on commentary. Droz hammers away on Regal who does his usual shouting. We're on a split screen of the match and Sable, so at least there's something to look at. JR keeps asking Sable about her relationship with Vince and all that and she can't comment. Regal hooks a chinlock and pounds away on Droz. Droz makes a comeback and goes up. Regal suplexes him off the top and the Regal Stretch ends this boring match.

Rating: D-. I can see why Regal was sent down to Dory Funk's training center for some more work. He hurt his ankle there though and later broke his leg so he didn't have another match on WWF TV until around Halloween. That's good too because this was really pretty boring stuff.

Here's the new King, Ken Shamrock. He talks about how it was hard to win last night but he managed to win. As far as Rocky goes, the guy he beat last night, last night Rocky showed him something. Here comes Owen who says he was a better king than Ken is. Owen challenges him for later and Ken says it was Owen that broke his ankle so it's on. Now here's HHH who wants in on this too. Shamrock is a really weak talker. Granted that isn't his strong suit and never was supposed to be.

We had to get here. I didn't want to do it but we had to eventually. It's time for the Brawl For All. The UFC was gaining popularity so WWF tried to get in on some of it. This is the result. There are three one minute rounds and a point system. You get 5 points for the most punches per round, 5 points for a takedown and 10 points for a knockdown.
