Jeff Jarrett with Southern Justice vs. X-Pac with Howard Finkel
Hair vs. Hair Match

Earlier on Heat, Jarrett and Southern Justice cut the Fink's hair. He came out bald and in a DX shirt with Finkel. The ref made Southern Justice leave the ringside. X-Pac managed to use Double J's guitar to hit him and pin him. Then Darren Drozdov and the Headbangers came out to celebrate the victory. X-Pac used electric shears and a pair of scissors to get the job done

 

 

Kaientai (Dick Togo, Sho Funaki, Taka Mitchinoku, and Mens Teioh) with Yamaguchi-San vs. The Parade of Human Oddities (Kurrgan, Giant Silva, and Golga) with Luna and the Insane Clown Posse

This match had many triple and quadruple teamings. All four Kaientai members got knocked over simultaneously. This was a fun match to watch. After a double Chokeslam, Golga pinned all four Kaientai members.

 

 

D'Lo Brown (WWF European Champion [from Helsinki, Finland today]) vs. Val Venis

The match went back and forth with both men getting nearly a three count on numerous occasions. During the match, Val ripped off D'Lo's chest protector and put it on himself to do a Money Shot. But after the ref accidentally knocked Val onto the turnbuckle, he pushed the ref and got disqualified.

 

 

NOTES:
The Insane Clown Posse sang the Parade of Human Oddities' theme song.
Chris Warren and his band sang D-Generation X's theme song
