Trivia
The finish to the Justice-Hogan match actually did not occur as planned. The original plan was for Hulk Hogan to hit the leg drop on Justice and for Papa Shango to do a run in and break up the pin causing a disqualification. However, Papa Shango missed his cue and was late in getting down to the ring. Justice improvised by kicking out of the leg drop. From there, referee Earl Hebner would disqualify Justice when his manager, Harvey Wippleman, interfered.

Goofs
There was clearly a large amount of space between the stadium floor and the top of Jake "The Snake" Roberts' head after Undertaker tombstoned him.

Quotes
Sid Justice: See we got a saying and it goes like this, "Do unto the man as he would do unto you. But do it first."

Alternate versions
The DVD version edited out any reference to "WWF". The DVD version also replaced the entrance themes, which was likely done because of song rights. They are:
Ric Flair's music changed to the WWE's rendition of "Also Sprach Zarusthra", which eventually became Flair's entrance music in 2005.
The video package documenting Sid Justice's path of destruction replaced Sid's entrance at that time to a generic hard rock song with vocals.
