This is hilarious!

High Flyers continue to get massive heat but now have to face Dynamite and Armstrong in the cage! LOL, I have to admit, I'm rooting for Landel. I love his character here. Anvil advances over Volkoff as Gilbert and Nikita have a wild brawl. Sarge gets the win over a distracted Rude. Gilbert gets some payback here but better watch out for Rude during his upcoming match with Nikita. Next week's semi finals will be very interesting. Landel vs. a red hot Leduc and Anvil takes on his partner Slaughter!

TNT Wrestling TV @ The Junction, San Antonio TX 6-21-84 Steve Stack: Welcome everybody to another edition of TNT wrestling here on the USA Network. All roads head to the Liberty Bowl on July 16th as TNT presents Summer Blast 84! Last week Tito Santana defeated Bob Roop to get a TNT title shot at Summer Blast. Tonight, the TNT champ Terry Funk will be in action. Also tonight, Jerry Lawler takes on Hart Family member George Wells. AWA Southern tag champs, the Fabulous Ones will be in the ring. As well as TV champ Tully Blanchard. Austin Idol returns and the 3rd and final match of the Denny Brown/Steve O series. One of those men will face AWA Light heavyweight Champ Brad Armstrong at Summer Blast. Let's get to the ring. The Guerreros vs. Todd Rooney and Dave Wilkins The fans cheer as the Guerreros are back in action as a team. They look sharp tonight as they dominate their opponents with high offensive moves. The end comes when the Guerreros hit a double dropkick for the win! The Guerreros cut a promo at the podium and say they're very happy to be back together and the goal is to win the titles! Commercial Break TV Champ Tully Blanchard vs. Gary Williams Tully looks arrogant as ever and just toys with Williams while taunting the fans. Tully turns it up with several elbow drops before hoisting Williams up and hitting the Sling Shot Suplex for the win! The fans boo as Tully holds the TV title high with a smirk. Stack: Another win for the TV champ. On that note, please welcome out commissioner Larry Hennig. Larry I understand you have an announcement regarding the TV title and Summer Blast. Larry: Thank you Steve and yes I do. At Summer Blast, Tully Blanchard will defend the TV title against this man. Austin Idol walks out as Joan Jett blares on the speakers and heads to the podium. Some boos as the last time we saw Idol, he was heeling it up. Stack: Ok, Austin Idol is back and gets a shot at the TV title. Must feel pretty good. Idol: Sure does Steve. You know, I've been gone awhile and I cant tell you how much I missed that ring baby. Boos as Tully Blanchard comes out. Tully: Once again, I'm totally disrespected! Not only was I not scheduled for an interview but I find out I have to defend my title against this joke. What the hell is going on here? Why does Idol deserve a shot? The last time we saw him, Hulk Hogan put him through the mat. Then he disappears. While all that is happening, yours truly was beating every opponent put in front of him. You're not in my league Idol and don't deserve this shot! Hennig: Tully, you've been an outstanding champ and have had a tremendous reign. I felt with Idol's history here, he deserves the shot. Tully: Then listen up Hennig. I want something out of this! When I beat Idol at Summer Blast, I want a shot at the TNT title! Why? Because I deserve it. Idol: Slow down brother. When you beat me? Let's get something straight, the Universal Heartthrob is back daddy and I plan on taking that title! Tully and Idol get closer but Hennig prevents an altercation. Commercial Break Winner gets AWA LH Title Shot at Summer Blast 'Downtown' Denny Brown vs. Steve O The series is tied 1-1 and this match determines who gets the shot. Steve O offers his hand. After what happened last week, Denny is reluctant but eventually shakes it. The first few minutes is fast paced and back and forth. Both men go all out but keep it clean. Steve gets control and almost gets a pin with a cross body block. Steve body slams Denny, swings off the ropes and hits a jumping elbow drop 1..2..Kick Out. Steve goes for a suplex but Denny blocks it and suplexes Steve! Denny regroups. Denny hits a gut wrench suplex 1..2..Kick Out. Denny swings Steve to the ropes and back drops him. Steve staggers up and Denny cradles him 1..2..Kick Out. The fans boo as Mr. Wrestling 2 walks around the ring. Denny is distracted by this. Denny swings Steve into the turnbuckles and charges in but Steve moves. Both men are trying to regroup. The Ref is looking down at Steve. Denny staggers up and swings off the ropes but Wrestling 2 trips him. Denny staggers forward and is nailed by a knee lift from Steve 1..2..3! Massive boos as Steve jumps up and down celebrating. Wrestling 2 enters the ring and raises his arm which elevates the boos. Steve O gets the title shot. Stack: Wrestling 2, Steve O just a minute, what's going on here? Wrestling 2: It's very simple Stack. This man Steve O is a winner. He just needed someone to guide him in the right direction. These idiot fans out here were holding this man back. I can get him on track and I can get him a championship. Ask Mr. Wrestling 3 Jessie Barr. We're going to win the tag titles at Summer Blast and now the One and Only Steve O is going to win the AWA LH title! Steve O: The One and Only! HA, I love it! I've gotten more attention in the last 5 minutes than I have in 2 years and it's because of Mr. Wrestling 2. Thank you. Wrestling 2 and Steve hug as the crowd boos. Stack: Unbelievable Commercial Break Denny Brown is at the podium and Stack says he must be disappointed. Denny: Damn right I am! I came here for a shot at the title and tonight it was taken away. Steve O! You proved you couldn't get the job done and needed help. Wrestling 2! Steve O! This isn't over by a long shot! Stack: An understandably upset Denny Brown. Let's go to the ring. AWA Southern Tag Team Champs The Fabulous Ones vs. The Travis Twins The champs get a huge pop tonight and lot's of love as they walk down the aisle. The champs are on fire tonight and finish off their opponents with a double suplex for the win! The Fabs cut a promo and say They cant wait to defend the gold against Mr. Wrestling 2/3 at Summer Blast. They say Wrestling 2 needs an attitude adjustment and they'll be happy to give it to him. Commercial Break Jumbo Tsuruta w/Stan Stasiak vs. Tim Oliver Stasiak has his man ready for his big AWA World title shot at Summer Blast. Jumbo chops away on Oliver then executes an overhead belly to belly suplex. Jumbo then finishes him off with the Powerbomb 1..2..3! Stasiak yells something at Jumbo. Jumbo nods, grabs Oliver by his hair and hurls him over the top rope! They head to the podium. Stack: Summer Blast 84, Jumbo Tsuruta gets the AWA World title shot against Hulk Hogan. Stasiak: Shut up Stack! The countdown is on. Summer Blast will be a historic night for my men. Decimation are going to destroy those paint face muscle headed freaks to become AWA world tag team champions. This man here, Jumbo Tsuruta is the most devastating wrestler in the world. Hogan has never been in the ring with someone like him. Tsuruta can over power him and out wrestle him. You people are looking at the next AWA world champ! Commercial Break Cocoa Samoa vs. Hank Richards Cocoa is back after that brutal victory over Ratamyus in a Lights Out Match. Cocoa looks good as he drop kicks Richards down. Cocoa body slams Richards, hops on the middle ropes and crashes down with a headbutt for the win! Cocoa is celebrating when WHAM! he's nailed from behind by the Cuban Assassins! The Assassins stomp away then hold him as Ratamyus (wearing face paint) enters the ring with a chain! Ratamyus hits Cocoa with the chain, busting him open. Ratamyus starts choking Cocoa with the chain as the fans boo heavily. The fans roar as the Guerreros hit the ring and clean house! The Guerreros check on Cocoa and signal for help. Commercial Break Stack: My goodness. Cocoa was in bad shape. I thought that feud was over but... Ratamyus and the Cuban Assassins (Fidel and Angel) hit the podium. Ratamyus has the chain. Ratamyus: Cocoa Samoa! Did you think this was over? It's over when I say it's over. It felt good to spill your blood once again. Guerreros! You just made a grave mistake! They storm off before Stack can ask any questions. Stack: Obviously this war is going to continue. I know Cocoa is being looked at in the back. We have another video sent in by Hercules Ayala. Video shows Ayala pulling a car uphill! He stops and looks at the camera. Ayala: Atlas! I don't want a wrestling match with you. I want a fight! I want to hurt and punish you! I want a taped fist fight! Do you have the guts? Ayala goes back to pulling the car as the video ends. 'Mr. USA' Tony Atlas vs. Clint Curtis Atlas works over Curtis with thrusts followed by a jumping headbutt. Atlas hits the Gorilla Pres Slam followed by a body splash for the pin! The fans cheer as Atlas heads to the podium. Stack asks him about the Ayala video. Atlas: Ayala wants a fight? Boy! You got one! Commercial Break TNT Champ Terry Funk vs. Stu Jersky Funk is aggressive tonight as he works over Jersky with some punches and open hand slaps. Funk hits a Russian Legsweep and follows with a reverse neckbreaker to get the easy pin! Funk holds up his title then heads to the podium. Stack mentions his issues with upcoming challenger Tito Santana. Funk: I told you people over and over again, Tito Santana is not who you think he is. Tito is a sneaky manipulator. And now Tito gets what he wants but be careful Tito because I'm the one you have to beat for this title and like I've said, I'm holding onto this title by any means necessary! Commercial Break Stack runs down next week's show. Austin Idol, Kansas Jayhawks, Decimation and Ivan Putski will be in action. Also, the debut of a new tag team Ricky Vaughn and Scott McGhee known as The Real Deal. The Blonde Bombers will face The Stampede Rush and the Dream Machine will take on King Carl Fergie.

Jerry 'The King' Lawler vs. 'Master G' George Wells w/Jimmy Hart Last week we heard the big announcement for Summer Blast as the Hart Family (Fergie, HTM and Wells) will take on Lawler, Dream Machine and a mystery partner in a steel cage match! The bell rings but of course Jimmy Hart stays in the ring yelling at Lawler through his megaphone. Lawler has enough and grabs Hart but Wells nails Lawler and punches away as Hart bails through the ropes. Wells stomps away then chokes Lawler with his boot and rakes it across his face. Wells picks up Lawler and slams him on the top rope. Wells chokes Lawler on the ropes then hoists him up and suplexes him. Wells and Hart are laughing and having a good time. Wells climbs to the top rope but spends to much time yelling at the fans. Lawler gets up and the crowd explodes as he slams Wells off the top rope! Hart gets on the apron. Lawler picks up Wells and swings him into Hart. Well's head hits the megaphone. Lawler rolls Wells up 1..2..3! An exhausted Lawler staggers up and raises his arm in victory. Massive boos as Fergie and the Honkytonk Man hit the ring and put the boots to Lawler. They stomp away. Wells staggers up and joins in. Cheers as Dream Machine hits the ring with fists flying!

HTM holds a limp Lawler up as Wells leaps off the top rope with a flying shoulder tackle! Fergie then hoists Lawler up and piledrives him down! Jimmy Hart crawls back in the ring and is helped up.

Good promos from the Sheiks, Manny and Williams for the upcoming triple threat tag title match. OH SNAP! The Mega Powers vs. Hart and Allen will be a mega draw in St. Paul. Robley is confident him and his boys will take out the tough legendary vets. HMMMM, Heenan defiantly has something up his sleeve. He seems way to confident. Rude is in Hot Stuff Inc. Gilbert doesn't like it but they seem to gel well until the end. Nikita-Russian Sickle-Game Over. Gilbert better stay focused on Nikita or he could get it even worse in the Saddledome.

House of Humperdink was causing some havoc until King Kong Bundy showed up! Bundy wins it all! Awesome angle here with the battle royals. Upset of the week has got to go to Lane over Brisco. In the middle of all this, Weaver beats Kernodle for the Atlantic Coast title! Jake the Snake comes to town and DDT's Cash on the outside! Always something happening in Florida!

Lot's of great action going down in the WWF! That Magnum/Steele Lights out match will be epic! Beefcake is out and Black Bart is in. Beefcake might turn into a top face after this. Ventura costs Johnson his match with Superstar. Cant wait for the next Johnson/Ventura match! I can just see Johnson unloading his lightning jabs on Ventura. It took 4 monsters to do it but they break Andre's ankle. They better watch out when the angry Giant comes back! Backlund wins the title!!! After a wild cage match, Backlund barely escapes and walks away the winner. Really loved this chase.

Islanders are on a roll. The Midnight's and Windham's put on some great matches. OH MAN! Talk about a blockbuster main event! Fans got their money's worth on that match.

SECW keeps the June Jam momentum going! Things are going to another level with Cooley and Madril. Madril pulls a big stunt to barely escape with his title. The mystery of the masked Thunderbolt is solved! Paterson taking off his mask was a great TV moment. LOL, Hamilton is revealed at the house show after Scott regains the Jr. Championship. All around great angle. Super Ninja is revealed as Ron Slinker. Slinker is fired up now. Nightmares get revenge on the Rat Pack in a tar and feather match but as we saw at Tag War, this feud is far from over. Mike Jackson had a pretty good week. Kendo and Kabuki are becoming more and more dangerous which really sets up their cage match with the Road Warriors as something huge. Jones Army seems to have gotten the best of the Freebirds this week but I know the Birds will be back with a vengeance. Bullet Bob finds a great replacement for Brad in Mr. Olympia as they put down Stomper and Humungous.

Oh man, I know Fuji wasn't happy with Super Ninja taking the fall and he shows it after the match. Classic Southern mixed person 6 man tag with the faces prevailing. I'm really liking the Cooley/Madril feud and looks like we're going to get more. LOL! I can just picture the Nightmares new look. That's a fun booking angle. Freebirds and Jones Army continue their heated feud. It's always strange seeing Flair without a title. WOW! Bullet Bob gets a BIG win over Humungous to retain.

Cant wait for the next Herc/Peterson match! Talk about hard hitting. Nice qualifying matches as Jay Youngblood looks good over the Nightmare and Jimmy Jam defeats Houston. Jimmy Jam and Precious are back home. JYD and Dr. D at Star Wars! YES! That will draw nothing but money. LOL, Cornette has a fit as it's announced the Blackjacks get another shot, this time in a tornado match. Those Blackjacks do pretty well in those types of matches. HUGE UPSET! Little brother Kendall comes in and defeats Murdoch on TV! Needless to say, Kendall just got over quick with the fans.

Solid opening round matches on TV. Love Landel! Rude advances but Heenan seems to be more focused on Bad News and his upcoming match with Hogan. Big Jim impresses with a win over Ox. Neidhart advances with a hard hitting win over Sweetan. High Flyers continue to get massive heat and gets involved in the big LH title rematch. Would love to see Brad and Dynamite take on the High Flyers.

Winners of the Match- Mr. Wrestling 2/3 Commercial Break Lance: Well it appears Mr. Wrestling 2 and 3 pulled out a shady win and will get the tag title shot at Summer Blast. Unbelievable. Our next match will be the TNT debut of two ring veterans. Should be a good match up. Gino Brito Jr. vs. 'The Tempest' Richard Charland Both men trade holds for the first few minutes. Brito swings Charland to the ropes but Charland comes back with a Thesz Press but Brito holds on and both men go over the top rope and hit the ground hard. The Ref counts and neither man can make it back in the ring by the 10 count. Both men stagger up. They stare at each other and Brito starts to walk away when WHAM! Charland nails him from behind. Charland grabs Brito by the hair and rams him into the steel post, busting him open! Officials run out to break it up. Official Ruling- A Double Countout Commercial Break Lance: Wow! Ok, Charland not happy with Brito. Brito was helped out of here. I hope he's ok. Fans, at the Gardens we saw an addition to the Hart Family as the self proclaimed King, Carl Fergie attacked Jerry Lawler. We'll see Fergie in action tonight but right now, please welcome out Jerry The King Lawler! Massive cheers Lawler: That little Wiesel Jimmy Hart did it again. Let me tell you something Big Mouth. There's only one King in Memphis brother and you're looking at him. It seems Hart's stooges like to interfere in mine and Dream Machine's matches. Well I think I have a solution. July 16, at Summer Blast, the 3 stooges against myself, Dream Machine and a mystery partner...Inside a Steel Cage! You misfits have the guts? Let's just see how tough that wannabe football player, cheap Elvis impersonator and court jester really are! Personally I think they're all Jack Asses and gutless! Lance: Oh my! The challenge has been made. Ok, when we come back the team of Stampede Rush.

I'm truly sorry if it seemed underhanded, wasn't my intentions. I look forward to meeting Denny for the final match next week. Lance: Well, he seems sincere. I guess we'll see how this ends next week. Commercial Break Lance: Fans, next week in San Antonio, TV Champ Tully Blanchard will be in action, the Guererros return as a team.

(Looks at Tito) I know what you've been doing. Don't you people see what's been going on? Tito Santana came in here and rubbed shoulders with me and manipulated his way into a TNT title shot. You might have been able to fool everybody here but you don't fool me. You could of just been man enough and challenged me to a match face to face. Tito: Hold on Terry, I don't know what you're talking about. All I did was watch your back a couple times. As far as my title match goes, I earned it. I don't play games. I compete in the ring and the goal is to become champion. I'm a competitor, simple as that. Terry: (Slow clap) You're real good. Bravo. You can spin it however you want but at Summer Blast, there's no way you're taking this title from me. You don't stand a chance! The show ends with an intense stare down.

Jerry 'The King' Lawler, Dream Machine, Mystery Partner vs. 'King' Carl Fergie, Honkytonk Man, 'Master G' George Wells w/Jimmy Hart

Love that RnR vs. Texas Red/Spoiler match! Billy Jack impresses in the 6 man tag. He looks to be the Playboy's next challenger. Adonis looked strong in that win against Zenk. Awesome main event! Hart's are coming in with some serious momentum.

Johnson vs. Ventura, Andre vs. Khan. Some big time matches on the loop.

Nice follow up show. Spivey avenges his loss and appears to be heading for big things. Like the French Revolution and they debut strong. LOL, Rose is gold on the mic. Man, with The Polish Prince and the Pretty Boy by his side, it's going to be a tough task getting the belt off Rose. Cobra gets the win tonight but I know Wakamatsu's men are plotting revenge. Another win for the brigade as Perez gets an impressive pin on Boyd. So far the Brigade is doing a great job of watching each others backs. Fun main event as the Harts debut! Harts take care of the Starrs while CanCon takes care of Flowers and Embry. Good idea adding a tag title because your tag division is stacked!

The old timers are back together and look as tough as ever. Gibson will benefit by hanging around these guys. I wonder who Graham was referring to??? The plot thickens between Rude and Baby Doll. Nikita takes advantage and sickles Gilbert! Lot's of intrigue surrounds the Young Lions final. A lot at stake in the three corners tag title match. One team walks away with the titles, the other's leave for a year. Will Hulkamania prevail over Bad News??? Heenan says No Way! Cant wait for Canada Day!

TNT releases Rick Link and picks up Gino Brito Jr.

I really like the push DJ Peterson is getting. Add a battle royal win to his resume. JYD is looking strong with some C.O. wins over Herc. Islanders are having good matches. I'm hoping they will get a shot at the Midnight Express. Grappler and Windham had some good draws. Keeps both guys strong.

Good grief what a show!!! June Jam 3 went above and beyond expectations as 41,000 fans witnessed a true supercard. Randy Rose gets the fans going with a big win over a red hot Super Ninja. Akbar brings in OMG and he delivers by taking down Golden. The Masked Thunderbolt mystery continues as another masked man helps Street and Scott Armstrong get one over on Rogers and Masked Thunderbolt. OH Man! Madril comes to town and immediately takes the Mississippi title from Cooley. Using the chain guarantees a rematch. LOL, feel good moment for the crowd as the Rat Pack shaves the heads of the Nightmares. Brad Armstrong defeats Dynamite Kid for the Light Heavy title!!! Fantastic match! Brad will make a great champ. Freebirds win round 1 over Paul Jones Army. The big story is Gordy getting the fall on Humungous. That's huge. Kendo and Kabuki do some damage to the Road Warriors but Precious Paul vows revenge. WOW!!!!! Bullet Bob defeats Flair for the title! Incredible! That match leaves 41,000 fans happy. Awesome main event. Alabama and Lee Greenwood is icing on the cake. Well done Gene!

Jessie Ventura is back! Great promo and follows it up with a win. You have made Fleming and Horowitz into one of the hottest tag teams in the game. Holding Robinson and Quinn to a draw is pretty damn impressive. Looks like we're heading into a wild Magnum/Animal feud! This is the kind of feud that will make Magnum a superstar here. Johnson has some serious momentum going as TV champ, this time defeating the Superstar. Rougeaus and Albano's monsters has been a crazy feud. The Rougeaus making them bleed shows how tough they are. The Snuka/Backlund war continues and in MSG, they will meet in the CAGE!!!!

I agree, Valentine is going to go all out to get revenge on Gino. So far a lot of people have felt the wrath of Valentine. Cool seeing Bret Hart come to town and defend his title. Cuban Assassin had a great run as champ but as mentioned above, he was one of Valentine's victims. The Russians are causing some serious havoc. Boomer and Rufus are involved in a fun feud. Cant wait for the inevitable Gino/Valentine match!

Well, I hate to do this but after a successful run, TNT puts Nick Bockwinkle on the trade block.

All good my friend, life happens. Good to see you back.

You're doing a tremendous job! You have the feel of the territory and era down to perfection. New title coming...YES! I like the push Conway is getting and now he's building up quite an army. Just ask Jose Lothario. WCCW better watch out! Grappler gets over in the ring and on the mic. What a segment as Cornette debuts and spoils the Blackjacks moment. Things get worse as the Midnight Express come in and win the titles! At least the Blackjacks had one last run. Nobody gets heat with words like Dr. D! Man that guy is going to cause riots. His feud with JYD will be MONEY! Kevin beats Bass to advance. I think Kevin can focus now that the Freebirds are gone. Cant wait for Independence Day Star Wars! Already a guaranteed sell out.

The action continues in Stampede! Ciclon looked like he was heading into a typical squash until Big Jim showed up. Big Jim debuts with an impact! Love what you're doing with Landell. He's coming off as a big star. Ware and Sugar get a solid TV win over McGhee and Gibson. Fun main event as things get crazy with Gagne's goons and Mutoh's mist. The AWA guys and Stampede boys are heading for an explosive showdown. Speaking of showdowns, Hogan signs the dotted line but gets some Bad News as HEENAN is now the manager of Allen! Shocker! Cant wait for the Spectacular.
