More of a snapshot to show how over Austin was at this point than anything else. Boss Man got in great shape for this run, but didn't really deliver anything in the ring. Boss Man hits Austin with the nightstick for the DQ, which means Austin advances. They do an injury angle as Boss Man continues the attack longer after the match. Vince laughs while watching on, which is part of the overall scheme to weaken him going into the next round. Vince seems unaffected by Austin advancing in the tournament, simply saying the night is young and there's far more where that came from.

Pretty routine match, with Vince watching approvingly from his dressing room. Boss Man whacks Austin with the nightstick to draw a DQ, but Vince is unfazed as he does a number on Stone Cold after the bout.

 

Interestingly, according to the Observer right before this show, Austin had vetoed two proposed angles: one where the Boss Man would lay him out to end Raw, and one where...Shane would turn on him as referee at Survivor Series. Vince clearly won that particular power struggle in the end.
