[1990-10-06-WWF-Superstars] Brother Love: Rick Martel and Jake Roberts
Brother Love wants The Model to stick around to keep things smelling fresh as the guest will be Jake Roberts. Yes! Jake takes offense to Brother Love while the Model sprays arrogance once and then another time at Damian. Jake goes after Model but ends up getting Arrogance in his eyes. Everyone’s selling it from Jake rolling around on the ground to Love/Model being like what did we just do was great. Awesome segment.

[1990-09-30-AJPW-Summer Action Series II] Mitsuharu Misawa & Toshiaki Kawada vs Jumbo Tsuruta & Akira Taue
This was a great match. Hatred is starting to really brew between the guys. Misawa’s chest is beat red and Taue gets bloodied up against the ring post. Everyone is just whacking the hell out of each other for most of the match. They aren’t even trying to pin each other. The last few minutes it turns more into a wrestling match with the close counts. Part of me wished they just continued to beat on each other as I thought some of hate went away as match progressed. Still it’s a real quality match that ends in a 45 minute draw and didn’t feel like it went that long at all.

[1990-09-29-USWA-Memphis TV] Bill Dundee vs Dirty White Boy
Dundee with some nice arm work. Decent little match before the DQ finish. Brickhouse Brown ends up being completely passed out sitting in chair while DWG puts make up on his face. I want to know why Brown was out cold like that. They put a wig on his head too. Danny Davis got busted up too while this was going on.

[1990-09-29-WWF-Superstars] Rick Rude squash
Rude wins his match with a couple punches and the Rude Awakening. Bobby has found the special lady for Rude. Heenan refers to Bossman’s mother as a ugly dog. Seems lazy reason to come up with a feud.

[1990-09-29-AJPW-Summer Action Series II] Mitsuharu Misawa & Toshiaki Kawada vs Kenta Kobashi & Johnny Ace
Kawada is finally wearing his black/yellow tights. Ace and Kobashi working well together with the tag moves. Kobashi takes the beating including suplex off the apron to the floor, brianbuster and German suplex that he kicks out. Ace and Kobashi are doing a better job as a team compared to Misawa/Kawada. I thought Kobashi broke up the pinfall at the end so finish seemed off. Good match from what was shown.

[1990-09-28-NWA-Power Hour] Bobby Eaton vs Tracy Smothers
Ross and Heymen do more sparring on commentary. Paul E is claiming to be the first to get an interview with Black Scorpion and is the Mike Wallace of wrestling. Ross said he maybe the John Stossel instead. Oh no, the ring rope breaks. That doesn’t stop Smothers from trying to climb to the top. Not smart. Cornette knocks him and Eaton gets the easy victory.

[1990-09-23-WWF-Wrestling Challenge] Big Boss Man vs Paul Perez
Nice sneakers Vince. Goes well with your suit. Boss Man assaults Heenan and yanks him to ringside. Heenan and Rude have been making comments about Boss Man’s mother. Quick squash. Referees and officials come to Heenan’s aid. Boss Man throws the key into the crowd. Heenan is stuck ringside for the next match. Power & Glory try to help Heenan but almost get counted out for their match. Later, Rude and Heenan demand Boss Man show up with key. Bobby was very good physically through out this.

[1990-09-22-Maritimes] Rip Rogers vs Big Stephen Pettipas
Rip Rogers dropping his title on the floor is hilarious. He expects someone to grab it from him so the look on his face when he turns around is priceless. Color guy seems to piss some fan off. We don’t see what happens though. Bulldog Brown interferes on Oliver’s behalf. Is that Kurrgan?! Some big guy comes down after.

[1990-09-22-NWA-World Championship Wrestling] Fabulous Freebirds & Little Richard Marley / Ric Flair vs Scott Steiner / Interview: Sting
Hayes looks like he got punched in both eyes. Little Richard takes care of anything the Freebirds needs. Hayes feels he needs to repeat this point. We got you Michael. Scott stalls a bit when doing his tilt-a-whir slam. Steiner continues to dominate. Flair visibly calls a clothesline spot. Arn nails Scott but Flair can’t get the three count. Frankensteiner attempt but Arn grabs Flair at the ropes. Arn totally outsmarting Rick and hits Scott with the DDT. I figure that is it but Rick ends up nailing Flair with the Steiner Line and Scott wins!! Upset. Flair looked weak at losing like that.

[1990-09-22-USWA-Memphis TV] Blindfold Battle Royal / Interview: Jerry Lawler
Blindfold battle royal. Part of me would have loved to seen that one in full. Gilbert cheats by lifting his hold up so he can find his foreign object in his tights. Could just feel around that. Gilbert wins a car but he doesn’t get the car he wants and throws a tantrum. Lawler wants fans to join him at the Airport Toyota to spray paint Gilbert’s car. Lawler tells us about a tournament to determine the World Champion. Guys like Funk, Mean Mark Callous, Dick Slater have entered. Lawler buries Snowman big time.

Sapphire at the laundry mat ironing money. DiBiase does all the talking including an ironing quip. Should let Sapphire say something.
