In the Commissioner's Office:
Norman Smiley is just beginning to meet with Ricky Steamboat.
Steamboat: Christopher Daniels has acted upon his rematch clause from back at Night of the Rogues and thus you will have to defend the International Title against him tonight on Glory in the Main Event.
Norman: That's fine Commissioner. He has won singles match and I beat him once. I need to find out who the better man really is. I also want to act upon my favor that I got from being on your team at War Games.
Steamboat: Oh and what would this be?
Norman: An NAWA World Tag Team Title Match at Truth or Consequences.
Steamboat: Normally that wouldn't be possible but since it was through your favor that you earned, I am going to reluctantly make the match, despite the fact their is a strong possibility that Christopher Daniels may have to go alone in the tag team title defense, because Raven is not good to go. It surprises me that you asked for this, as you normally wouldn't take advantage of a situation like this. That's all I going to say because as Commissioner I am supposed to be unbiased.
Norman turns around and leaves the office.
Steamboat: Very odd that he asked for that match when he knew Raven was injured. Someone must have put it up to it but I am not going to press the issue. Daniels is just going to have to fight it out.

In the Interview Area:
Chris Cruise is standing backstage with Lenny Lane.
Cruise: I am backstage with Lenny Lane. Lenny, why did you attack the Gambler last week on Glory.
Lenny: Why? I'll tell you why Cruise. The Gambler seems to be declared the savior of the NAWA. He hasn't earned anything. It has been a series of lucky circumstances that has landed him in the popularity that he is in today. Sure he won War Games, but he just beat Disco Inferno. All of his so called big victories have been against guys like Disco Inferno, Shawn Stasiak, and Mike Sanders. Not exactly the most impressive stars in wrestling, is it Gambler. He is a sham and I am going to expose him as such when I wrestle him at Truth or Consequences.
Cruise: If I remember rightly, he did beat you last week...
Lenny: That was a lucky, one in a million fluke. See when you put in the Gambler in the ring with a real wrestler such as Jerry Lynn or Ron Waterman or Shane Douglas, he gets squashed like the inferior jobber that he is. I am going to prove that at Truth or Consequences.
Lenny leaves in a huff but we see Miles Stylish running across the interview area and Waterman follow about a moment later. We have got to step out for a
