    • At around the 5-minute mark, Roberts came ringside with his snake Damien, and put the bag underneath the ring before being told to go backstage by the referee; once Heenan eventually found the bag, André instructed him to take it to the back, which is what Heenan was attempting to do until Roberts returned.
    • After the match, Savage tossed Heenan into André, causing him to fall backwards and have his arms entangled in the ropes; moments later, Savage threw Heenan to the floor, and Jake entered the ring with Damien; André was able to free himself from the ropes and run away before Roberts had a chance to assault him with Damien.
