Right after Austin pins Davey Boy, the Hart Foundation is in to attack him. It looks like Owen is attacking Austin with the WWF title belt for some unknown reason. The LOD are out again to even the sides and then Furnas and LaFon come out. The announcers assume they are out to help the Harts, but then they start fighting each other. Finally, Shawn is out to brawl with everyone. Then, the ring goes dark and the Undertaker bong goes off. The lights are back on and he's in the ring fighting the Hart Foundation too. Austin picks up the belt and Undertaker takes exception. He lays it down between them and says let's get it on, and a big brawl breaks out. Pretty action packed segment. I liked this chaos quite a bit.

Austin didn't have the mid section kick before the Stunner so it still feels so out of nowhere the way he hits it on Bulldog. More brawling again but Lafon and Furnas also get involved in things. Michaels keeps going after Anvil. Big pop for Undertaker's music and entrance. Him and Austin square off again but I feel like the fans were more about the Hart Foundation getting theirs and not these guys fighting each other.

Less heat and energy in the initial portions of the post-match brawl here as compared to previous weeks. Furnas & LaFon had a mini-program thing going on with LOD, but they look woefully out of place here. This really picks up when the Undertaker's gong goes off and he appears in the ring after the lights go out. Really good face-off and tease and payoff of a brawl with Austin.

Fun chaos to end the show. Austin-Davey is pretty forgettable with Davey being content to sit in a headlock until the finish & the hot post-match. That's fine I suppose. HF must have been the ones to steal the WWF Title from Taker & Owen is wailing away on Austin with it. LOD, Shawn, Furnas/LaFon, & Taker join the party. The ring clears & Taker sees Austin holding the belt. He snatches it from him & draws a line with it. They brawl to a hot ending. Strong go-home for A Cold Day in Hell.
