At the WCW's 1996 "Fall Brawl" event, a WarGames match was competed between nWo wrestlers and the top stars from the roster of World Championship Wrestling. Sting was scheduled to compete as part of the WCW despite the claims that he had joined the nWo.

Because of an apparent shoulder injury, Curt Hennig was the last member of the Four Horsemen team to enter the WarGames match.
