Less than one year before WCW was sold to WWE and closed the doors forever, a WCW Monday Nitro full of sex and craziness hit TNT.

Yes, this WCW Pay Per View had a little of everything: Hulk Hogan, the Ultimate Warrior, Silver King (WTF?), Raven, Saturn, Roddy Piper, Bret Hart, DDP. And it had a LOT of nothing: no sense, no good finishes, nothing-happening announcing, and no one wanting to work a match.
