Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the match Shawn comes down and gets set on fire. Straight afterwards and during the match there are no scorch marks, but at the end of the match, when King grabs the belt, there are.

Gordie Boggs: No, because you don't have one.
Trivia: The wrestling organisation that is in this film(WCW) thought it would get good publicity to put their major title (the WCW Heavyweight championship) on the star of this film, David Arquette. Sure enough he won the title in a tag team match, but quickly lost it a few weeks later, in a triple cage match (an idea from this film). Shortly after this happened, WCW went out of business.
