Last few minutes. The New Age Outlaws are out as soon as Animal gets the hot tag. They end up pouring an ether soaked rag on Hawk to knock him out and they shave Hawk's mohawk while DX looks on and laughs. They were really going all out to create new stars in Rock and the NAO, although the Road Warriors having to sell for Chyna is a little ridiculous. Great angle with yet MORE heat placed on DX. I wish they'd learn from their past success though.

When WWE released the Monday Night Wars DVD years ago this match was one of the few to make it to the set. Odd choice on paper as not a great match. But Outlaws join up at ringside to attack LOD. Michaels and Triple H look on approvingly as Gunn shaves Hawk's hair. Chyna was holding Animal for a while.

At least there's some attempt at genuine heat here rather than DX amusing themselves, though there's that, too. The South Park t-shirts are a pretty brilliant way of setting the Outlaws apart and really one of the hipper things the WWF has ever done. Michaels seems to be pondering the Outlaws' work as they leave and Raw goes off the air, a development that would sort of be put on hold for a few months.

Not much of a match, but the angle is great. The Outlaws come out & knock Hawk out with an ether soaked rag. They shave his mohawk as he's passed out. DX & the Outlaws continue to beat down LOD for several minutes. DX are impressed with Roadie & Gunn as they leave. This also served as a tease for when the Outlaws do join DX a few months later.
