A "Legends Ceremony" occurred at the event, and introduced Ole Anderson, The Assassin, Ox Baker, Red Bastien, Lord James Blears, The Crusher, The Fabulous Moolah, Greg Gagne, Verne Gagne, Bob Geigel, Stu Hart, Magnum T.A., Bugsy McGraw, Don Owen, Dusty Rhodes, Grizzly Smith, Lou Thesz, John Tolos, Mad Dog Vachon, Johnny Valentine, and Mr. Wrestling II.
The WCW Hall of Fame induction ceremony also occurred, and Lou Thesz, Mr. Wrestling II, Verne Gagne, and Eddie Graham were the inductees.
The event saw some changes in the card, as Brad Armstrong replaced his father Bob Armstrong in the Legends Tag Team Match, The Prisoner replaced Scott Norton in the Bounty Match with Sting, and Tom Zenk replaced Shane Douglas, who was fired by WCW, in the NWA and WCW World Tag Team Championship steel cage match.
