Straight after Warrior vs. Hogan, Goldberg was set to defend the WCW World Title against Diamond Dallas Page. Incredibly, a lot of fans who ordered the Pay-Per-View didn't actually see the conclusion of the match. In fact, a lot of people - depending on which PPV provider they used - didn't see it at all. This was a huge gaff by WCW officials, who had failed to inform providers of timing. The next night on Monday Nitro, WCW aired the entire bout free of charge. Of course, this infuriated those who had paid for the Pay-Per-View, because now those who didn't got to see the main event for nothing. The match itself was worthwhile, which only made things worse. A lot of people were looking forward to DDP vs. Goldberg more than Warrior vs. Hogan. It was these kinds of mistakes that really hurt WCW in the long run. People started to lose faith in them as a company, recognising that they were failing to get even the most basic things right. Despite all the problems that would eventually plague the actual in-ring product itself, backstage was even more of a mess. Few who watched WCW around this time will ever forget Halloween Havoc '98 going off air earlier than planned.
