The main event was a steel cage match between Hulk Hogan and The Giant. Hogan defeated Giant to win the match. This event marked Brian Pillman's final match in WCW; in his "I Respect You" Strap Match against The Taskmaster, Pillman shouted "I respect you, bookerman!", breaking kayfabe, before leaving the ring.

[edit] Storylines
The event featured wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.
On the February 4 episode of Main Event, it was announced that One Man Gang would defend the United States Heavyweight Championship against Konn at SuperBrawl VI. Later that night, Konnan defeated OMG to win the title. The following night, on Monday Nitro, it was announced that the title match would remain at the SuperBrawl card with Konnan defending the title against OMG in a rematch.
