On WWF Raw, Shawn Michaels says he has an insurance policy in place for his match against Mankind. Not only that, HBK gets assistance from another 2 unexpected superstars during the main event. This all leads to the creation of the D-Generation X stable. The Patriot gets featured heavily on this week's Raw too, and twice he gets beaten up by Bret Hart and the Hart Foundation.

On WCW Nitro Lex Luger explains how disappointed he is with what happened at Road Wild. Steve McMichael and Chris Benoit face The Steiners in a tag team match, and Ric Flair confirms the main event for Clash of the Champions 35 (the final traditional Clash show to air on TBS).
