Shocking footage is shown after Halloween Havoc went off air. It's the MGM parking lot where a camera crew try to get a word with Hulk Hogan, but Hogan says he has to get home till a mysterious black car drives over Hulk Hogan! Hogan is on the floor unconscious. Tony: I can't believe what happened, we have no idea who did this to Hulk Hogan... Larry: Let me tell you who did it it's the nWo it has to be... Tony: While I believe that is a possibility, we have yet to verify the identity of the person behind that car. We have been told that Hulk Hogan has been hospitalized and is in intensive care. Due to the incident Larry, WCW has decided to strip the WCW World Heavyweight Championship from Hulk Hogan. WCW Championships Update: WCW World Champion: VACANT WCW (nWo) U.S. Champion: Bret Hart WCW World Tag Team Champions: Harlem Heat WCW (nWo) World Television Champion: Lex Luger WCW (nWo) World Cruiserweight Champion: Syxx Larry: What better way to destroy WCW than to take out two of its biggest stars? First last night with Sting and now Hulk Hogan. Tony: Well you do make a point... Dibiase: (joins the commentary desk) Gentleman... Tony: What are you doing here... Dibiase: I can be here all I want. Now you listen to me, all this talk about Hulk Hogan, I can tell you one thing, the nWo are not responsible. Larry: I don't believe you one bit... Dibiase: There is nothing in this world that Bret Hart wants than a match against Hulk Hogan and I will tell ya, Bret Hart is furious and I am willing to use my vast resources to find out who did it, not to help the WCW, but to help Bret Hart finally get his match, that is if Hogan is able to recover at all.

WCW Monday Nitro November 4th, 1996 Hosts: Tony Schiavone, Larry Zbyszko, Ted Dibiase, Bobby Heenan, and Eric Bischoff
Tony, Larry and now Dibiase who joins them talk about who drove over Hulk Hogan. Dibiase says he's here just to find out himself and he is working on it. Larry says WCW doesn't need Dibiase's help, and Dibiase reminds him it's definitely not for WCW. Tony announces that WCW has decided that at World War 3, on November 24th, the winner of the 60-Man battle royal will become the new WCW World Heavyweight Champion. Marcus Bagwell def. Brad Armstrong
DDP def. Ice-Train
The nWo are in the back, Bret, Hall and Nash are talking to Syxx about his upcoming match. Luger enters the room and says that tonight he has the face the Giant. Hall and Nash say that if he needs help all he has to do is ask. Luger flexes and says he can handle the Giant all on his own, but the Outsiders could make sure no one gets in his way. Syxx (c) def. Scotty Riggs via pinfall to retain the WCW (nWo) Cruiserweight Championship
Bret, Elizabeth, Luger and the Outsiders are out in the ring congratulating Syxx. Hall: You know something Dubya-See-Dubya, as you can see three members of the New World Order man... have three of of your championship belts. The US, Cruiserweight and World TV Championship man... Nash: Which is all part of the plan, you see we're slowly taking over the WCW, and next week on Nitro, we challenge Harlem Heat for the World Tag Team titles...(Larry says this isn't right and that they need to earn a shot not demand it) Bret: As for whoever drove down Hulk Hogan ha, I'll tell you it wasn't the nWo, rather I have a theory, that it was orchestrated by that good for nothing two-faced lying piece of trash Hulk Hogan himself, he knew I was on his back, he knew that the nWo is the future and it was only a matter of time I would get my title shot. His days were numbered, his body is getting older and he can't stand that someone like Bret the Hitman Hart, the greatest technical wrestler in history, could ever be in the ring with him because he knows he'll lose. And as for you Roddy Piper, signing that multi-year, mult-million dollar contract with Ted Turner is the biggest mistake of your life because after I'm done with you you'll never act again and that TV series you're about to do, is going to go straight to hell. Lex: As much as I would like Hogan to be around for you Bret, it doesn't matter anymore because WCW just lost two of its biggest stars. And... Suddenly fans are on their feet looking above on the rafters, a person in all black and white face paint looking above. Tony and Larry wonder who in the world that could be. Dibiase says he looks familiar, Tony says could that be Sting? Larry says he's not sure. Lex: Who is that? The lights turn off in the arena and turns back on and the man disappears. The nWo are wondering what the heck is going on. Lex: If this is WCW's way of trying to frighten us oooo we aren't frightened at all. Chris Benoit def. Hector Guerrero
Madusa def. Reina Jabuki in a Women's Title Tournament
Chris Jericho def. M. WallstreetLex Luger (c) def. The Giant via DQ for the WCW (nWo) World TV title. During the match the lights flicker a few times and in the ring the man in all black with white facepaint appears. Heenan says it has to be Sting, Bischoff says it definitely is Sting and that he's back. Lex looks frightened. The Giant has no idea what to do as he is in a corner. Sting points at Luger and then at the Giant and attacks the Giant knocking him out of the ring! Heenan is shouting "he has joined the nWo! I can't believe this!" Bischoff refuses to believe it and asks "are you sure?" Sting points at Lex and Lex runs off unsure what is going on for Nitro to go off air.

He says that the nWo "was gay" (something he did say back then about the nWo) and were a whole bunch of wannabes and the reason why they could never get multi-year multi-million dollar deals with movies and TV promises is because they could never fill his shoes. Piper says that Bret Hart has always been jealous of Hulk Hogan because Bret could never be as big and popular as him.

He says Scott Hall always thought he could be like Ric Flair, but has never flown in a private jet, he says Syxx looks like a blown-up doll for the nWo.

Nash: We're out here because we got something to say... Bret: Not only will we take home all Dubya-see-Dubya Championships by the end of Starrcade this Sunday, the take over will be complete and there is nothing anyone can do about it. As for Hulk Hogan, I can tell you none of us in the ring here took him down, because we all know I want my match, my dream is to get Hogan in the ring and beat him, humiliate him and retire his a$$. Roddy Piper, it must bother you that you could never beat me in the ring doesn't it? Doesn't it Piper, it bothers you that after all these years look at how my career has taken off, I am a four-time World Champion, and how many World Championships have you won? Let me guess...(everyone in the nWo shouts) Zero! Piper you can take all the millions of dollars, you can be in movies and TV, but at the end of the day not only are you an old-timer who doesn't deserve to be in the ring anymore, I'm going to break you Piper, I'm going to break you.

Bret: I'm saving you for this Sunday Piper (laughs as the nWo leave) Piper is shouting badly about his hip and rolls around in the ring till a medical crew reach him and Nitro goes off air.

Hogan: Well you know something Mean Gene brother, I could never imagine what happened to me that night brother when a car had run me over brother. As I lay there in intensive care brother, as I had the best doctors from around the world work on me brother, I had realized that my career may be over brother. Even though I'm still recovering brother, I want to thank all the fans out here and around the world for their kinds letters brother. But what makes me sick is who did it and who would've thought that the car's owner was none other than Trillionaire Ted Dibiase brother. So I want to call Ted Dibiase out here right now brother... Dibiase: (Dibiase makes his way out) Now Hulk Hogan, you're right I did run you over. Hogan: Why? I thought that good for nothing Bret Hart wanted a match with me brother? Dibiase: Because it was the only way to take over the WCW Hulk, with you gone no one could stop us no hard feelings but I had to do what they couldn't do. The takeover is happening as we speak and we have new members...(Bret and the Outsiders walk out) and these new members make a great addition to the nWo, this is the New World Order and WCW will be buried as I planned too! Bret: (Hulk and Gene looks worried) You know something Hulk Hogan, ya I wanted a match, but it looks from the sound of it that it'll take you longer than expected so let me tell you what I'm going to do here...actually let me show you... Suddenly Bret attacks Dibiase! The Outsiders beat him down. Hulk watches with Gene. The Outsiders hold unto Dibiase who is a bloody mess. Hulk: What are you doing with him brother? Bret: Dibiase deserves this Hulk for screwing me from having am match, and since he's already given us a hefty advance, we don't need this has-been any longer (Vincent and Syxx who are out now drag Dibiase away), you see we're the new blood, and we're taking over professional wrestling the right way. I have good news for you Hulk, not only are we taking care of the man who did this to you, the nWo is going to leave you alone till you're fully recovered... Hulk: Brother I don't know when if I ever get better brother, and there is always a chance a doctor won't get me cleared for the ring brother... Bret: You need to understand, I want my match. I want it, so we're going to give you time, the nWo will not touch you, will not do anything to do we'll leave you alone and until that day you're ready to step back in the ring, I want my match, just you and me in the middle of the ring....I want it and I'll stop anyone who gets in my way to get it. Hulk: If I do plan to come back, if I do get better brother, I'll be ready for you! (the nWo leave) ______________________ Jushin Thunder Liger def. Rey Mysterio Jr

And to commemorate our takeover, I want to welcome two new members to the nWo, first is the new Women's Champion, Madusa. Madusa poses in a new nWo croptop handed over by Nash. Bret: Look at how that looks it looks gorgeous on you. As for you Diamond Dallas Page we wanted to welcome to with a big bonus that Trillionaire Ted who might I add wants to make amends with us, money deserve (Hall hands over a steel briefcase). So everyone welcome DDP! They all celebrate and try to get the crowd riled up as DDP suddenly rips his shirt up and the announcers are wondering what the heck is going on. Suddenly DDP whacks the steel briefcase on top of Bret's head! Diamond Cutter on Hall, throws out Nash, smashes Luger with the briefcase as DDP rolls out of the ring and runs off with the briefcase with the rest trying to help each other out! Sting turns away from the rafters and is gone. Heenan says that he knew it that DDP didn't betray WCW and that it as a double cross, but Tony asks how did he know and Heenan says he just knew.

I once called you friend, now you're not only my enemy, but you're my destiny because when I'm done with you... Sting with a vulture is in the rafters watching. Bret: You know something Sting, I know you want a match with me, and if you want it so badly, how about this, this Saturday on PPV (laughs) on PPV Sting, the only way I'm ever giving you a match is if you face eight men in a Gauntlet match. These men will be chosen by a raffle. If you can beat them all live on PPV, I'll concede and I'll give you the match you want because face it Sting, you stole the sharpshooter, and you won't last against me. So do you accept?
