UWF sends Austin Idol to World Class for Wahoo McDaniel

WOW, WOW, WOW! I thought Rick Martel might take the NWA title but now this! Truly love it. Texas and Montreal seems like a strange pairing but it is working nicely. Garvin and Embry are perfect heels and the fans must have went nuts as Bad News connected with the Ghetto Blaster. What is Fritz thinking? The VonErichs without a title? He must have a mega plan in the works.

Love the Lutte/World Class interaction going on in the game.

WOW, the AWA always has such great cards from the top to the bottom. Keep up the great work!

I am a big fan of tournaments and really enjoyed the tag team event in Salt Lake City. Good work!

UWF has Robert & Ron Fuller on the trade block along with Jimmy Golden

The MSG show was great with a lot of turmoil between managers and wrestlers. This gets the new set of angles going for the new year! Also like the introduction of Survivor. Wrestling is a creative sport and you have done such a great job with it. Wrestling is also a copy cat game. Might just see one of those reverse battle royals and survivor cards you used in the South land in 86!

You are making stars out of people we couldn't figure out how to use like Al Madril and Carlos Colon. Keep up the great work!

MID-SOUTH COLISEUM NOVEMBER 28,1985 (AIRED AS PART OF WEEKLY SHOW ON 11/30/85) POSTED EARLY AS I HAVE A BUSY WEEK Welcome to Thanksgiving Thunder in the Mid-South Coliseum. I am Jim Ross and my partner for this UWF special is the one and only Lance Russell. What a night we have for you as we have 10 amazing matches that could very well change the landscape of UWF Wrestling as we know it. Six title matches, a strap match, a UWF career vs career match and let’s not forget, the Anthem match where the American Dream will battle the Russian Nightmare for the right to play their countries national anthem. Lance Russell: This is going to be one of the biggest shows ever here in the Mid-South Coliseum and I am most interested to see how Jerry “The King” Lawler is able to deal with the Nation of Domination and Hacksaw Reed. I mean this could be really great or really bad. We might just leave here tonight with the Nation of Domination in charge of the UWF Title and being serenaded by the Russian National Anthem as well walk to our vehicles. Let’s get to our first match. MATCH BATTLE OF BUCKSNORT THE DIRTY WHITE BOY WITH RON FULLER VS JIMMY GOLDEN This had little to do with wrestling and seemed like a family brawl. When Ron Fuller tried to get involved, his brother Robert came to ringside to take care of him. In the end it was the Bucksnort Driver beating the Bucksnort Blaster as Golden hit the piledriver on the DWB for the win. MATCH TERRY TAYLOR VS SHANE DOUGLAS Terry Taylor basically takes the youngster to school here. Without Mr. Wrestling II by his side, Douglas seemed a little lost and Taylor was always one step ahead. Douglas had a few minutes on top here but Taylor came right back and just outwrestled Douglas. The end came in about 7 minutes with the Cross Face Chickenwing. MATCH STRAP MATCH COWBOY BILL WATTS VS SKANDAR AKBAR Crippler Rip Oliver, the newest member of Devastation Inc. came to the ring with Akbar in this wild brawl between the two old timers. As this was a no DQ match, Oliver decided to hit the ring to cause some chaos. Akbar had taken a beating to this point as Watts had whipped him like a dog with that strap. Oliver trips up Watts and the strap falls to the ground. Oliver picks it up as Akbar holds Watts. WHAM! Watts back kicks a low blow to Akbar and then charges Oliver but is caught with a knee to the head. As Watts goes down, Oliver picks up the strap and whips Watts over and over again. Watts looks is in bad shape and Oliver scoops him up and with the help of Akbar, delivers a Spike Piledriver for the win. Akbar and Oliver are laughing it up all the way back to the locker room as Watts is left lying in the center of the ring. 6 MAN WORLD TITLE MATCH TOMMY RICH, AUSTIN IDOL & BUDDY LANDELL WITH RON FULLER VS THE ROAD WARRIOS & THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR WITH PAUL ELLERING A match that is used to begin the push of the Warrior and to continue to keep the Road Warriors as one of the top teams in the UWF. Warrior is still raw but the potential is there so 6 man matches with the Road Warriors will allow him time to keep growing. Ron Fuller tried his best to get involved here but the power of the Warriors was just too much and in the end, we see Idol hit with the Doomsday Device and we have new 6-man champions. CAREER VS CAREER MATCH JYD VS MR. WRESTLING II The crowd is on the edge of their seats for this one as they prayed that this would not be the last of the Dog. JYD was off to a fast start but Wrestling II is just too much of a veteran and uses some questionable tactics to take the momentum. It looked all over as JYD was nailed with a Loaded Million Dollar Knee Lift but to his luck, he fell out onto the arena floor. JYD made it back in on the count of 9 and hit a should block as he re-entered. From there, the Dog went wild and connected with a few headbutts followed by a Big Thump for the win. The crowd went wild as JYD gets to stay but after a few moments, something strange started to happen. They started to chant II, II, II over and over again. While he has been such a heel of late, the fans can’t totally forget what a loyal soldier her has been over the years. JYD actually goes over and gives Mr. Wrestling II a big hug and they walk out together. UNITED STATES TAG TEAM TITLE BOB ARMSTRONG & RON GARVIN VS THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS WITH JIM CORNETTE A match where both teams are looking for revenge. Amrstrong and Garvin for the fireballs thrown at Armstrong’s son and Garvin himself by the Midnight Express and Cornette’s team for Garvin hitting Eaton with the Cornette’s tennis racket to “steal” the titles. A nice 15 minute match here where the fan favorites dominate the beginning. Next, Cornette with the trip, allows the Express to get on top, and finally a nice hope spot by Armstrong only to be takin down by a low blow by Condrey. Armstrong now plays the face in peril and eventually tags in Garvin who comes in like a house afire. The action tumbles out to the arena floor where we get a double count out. Armstrong and Garvin hold on to their belts but both teams are not satisfied with this finish and we will see more of these two teams down the road. UWF WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH THE ROCK n ROLL EXPRESS VS IVAN & VLAD KOLOFF The perfect good vs evil match up here where the Express get another chance to play David vs Goliath. It could easily be argued that there has never been a team as over in the UWF as the RnR Express are and that there has never been a group as hated as the Koloffs here. The Express try a little running of the ropes in the beginning to offset the power of the Koloffs. Eventaully Vlad catches Morton and we get to the face in peril segment. The end sees Ivan clamp the Bear Hug on Gibson but Morton comes off the top rope to break up the hold. It gets wild for a few minutes as both men tag in their partners and Morton goes toe to with Vlad but Vlad is too strong. After a big right hand, Vlad whips Morton into the ropes and goes for the Big Back Body Drop but Morton leaps over and tries a Sunset Flip. Vlad is too strong and Morton can’t pull him down. Gibson hits the ring and dropkicks Vlad right in the jaw and over he goes. Gibson hits Ivan to ensure that he can’t make the save and the ref makes the three count. As Lance Russell and Jim Ross are hyping up this title defense Nikita comes down to the ring. Jim Ross: Here comes Nikita and business is about to pick up. The Rock n Roll Express better watch out. WHAM… Nikita levels Vlad with a Russian Sickle and Vlad is left flat on his back, Ivan and Nikita walk off and the Rock n Roll Express just seem to stare in confusion as does everyone in the arena. The only thing Lance Russell can think of is that this is the second time Vlad has been beaten and maybe Nikita doesn’t accept loses. NORTH AMERICAN TITLE MATCH DR. DEATH STEVE WILLIAMS VS HAKU WITH SKANDAR AKBAR It doesn’t take long here for Akbar to get involved. He seems a little slow after the beating he took earlier tonight in the strap match with Watts but a wounded animal is dangerous. Watts can only stand so much and comes out after Akbar and Akbar takes off up the aisle. The problem is that it might be too late as Haku took advantage of Akbar’s help and has the Tongan Death Grip locked on Dr. Death. It looks like he is going out from the pain as the ref raises his arm up and drops it 2 times. The third, Williams stops the arm mid-way and shows signs of life. Here he goes. Williams is shaking all over as the adrenaline starts pumping. Williams and Haku trade blows and Dr. Death comes out on top of this exchange. WHAM…. Football Tackle by Dr. Death WHAM…. Oklahoma Stampede! 1… 2… 3. Jim Ross: Bah Gawd! Dr. Death has survived but I am sure Akbar and Devastation Inc. will be back for more. ANTHEM MATCH DUSTY RHODES VS NIKITA KOLOFF Just what you would expect, Nikita controls the beginning and then Rhodes comes back. Many near falls by both men and Nikita is on the edge of defeat here. Bionic Elbow by Rhodes … 2 ¾ count. Bionic Elbow … 1 ½ Count Bionic Elbow … No sell by Nikita Lance Russell: Oh my, Dusty better watch out! Nikita with the Irish Whip …. Russian Sickle and Dusty flips on his head and seems to be unconscious. Nikita with the cover. 1… 2… 3. Jim Ross: It can’t be! Dusty has lost and these people are going to be asked to stand and pay respect to the Russian National Anthem! This is the worst thing I have ever seen. This is the worst moment in Dusty’s long and illustrious career. He may never forgive himself. Nikita Koloff takes the microphone as the people are booing and throwing things all over the ring. Nikita Koloff: Hold da music. We wait to Dusty to get up and pay respect to Modder Russia. Dusty eventually recovers and sees what is happening. He takes the microphone. Dusty Rhodes: Nikita Koloff, you can’t do this to these people. I admit that today you are the better man. Since you have gotten to the UWF, you have been the better man. Do not make these proud Americans suffer for my failures. There must be something else we can do. Nikita Koloff: You leave. You leave UWF for good, we no play the Anthem. You American Dream walk out now and no come back. Dusty Rhodes is so emotional and weeps a goodbye to the fans and makes the deal with the Devil in order to save the fans from hearing the nation. The fans are begging him not to do so but he can’t help himself and does the slowest of all good bye walks up the aisle in the Mid-South Coliseum. UWF TITLE VS UNITED STATES TITLE MATCH JERRY “THE KING LAWLER VS HACKSAW BUTCH REED WITH ERNIE LADD Even though it is the King, it takes the crowd in Memphis some time to get over the last match. This match was awesome with every big move possible. Press Slam by Reed, Royal Backbreaker by Lawler, Double Underhook Suplex by Reed, Middle Rope Fist Drop by Lawler, were all executed to perfection but only ended in 2 counts. Finally, Lawler throws punches so fast it looked like Sugar Ray Leonard. Lawler is able to follow this up with a Piledriver and it looks like he has the match won and he is going to hold two titles. WHAM… Big Boot by Ladd. DING DING DING! Lawler wins by DQ and like lightening. Bill Dundee has hit the ring and is going wild in aid of the King. The night ends with Lawler and Dundee in charge of the ring and with an embrace as the fans go wild! Lance Russell: What a night of wrestling it has been and the UWF will never be the same. We have seen the last of Mr. Wrestling II and Dusty Rhodes. JYD is here to stay and Jerry Lawler is still the champ. So long from Memphis.

Last week I said that Bad News and Iceman would be a great team. Now I think that they would be even better enemies.

Final level of the clown thing? Can't wait for Starrcade now!

I like the team of Volkolff and Sheik as thy bring automatic heat beyond belief! Nice get with that one.

11/23/1985 MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA Hello again everybody. Welcome to UWF Wrestling, coming to you from the Civic Center in Knoxville, Tennessee. I am Lance Russell and my partner today is Dave Brown and let’s get right to the video tape from this week in Atlanta. We see a video tape of Jerry Lawler defeating Nature Boy Buddy Landell in his World Title Match with Superstar Bill Dundee as the special referee. When the video is over the Lawler is at the interview desk where Russell asks Lawler about his current relationship with Dundee. Lance explains that last week in their tag match the King accidently hit Dundee and then as we all just saw, Dundee slow counted the pin of Landell. Jerry Lawler: I can’t speak for Bill, but I think our relationship is fine. I mean he might have been a little upset that he wasn’t strong enough last week to hold Landell causing me to accidently hit him and he might be a little upset with himself that he was out of position to make the three count as the special referee. I mean, I understand, he is getting up there in age and isn’t quite what he used to be. Lance Russell: Now, now Jerry. That will be enough of that. All of a sudden Dundee comes storming out and confronts Kingfish as he claims that he is always there for Lawler and would just like to be respected and just one time and when the topic of who Lawler will defend that UWF title against, Dundee thinks of himself as a possible opponent. Jerry Lawler: I don’t decide who I wrestle. I must compete against whoever the UWF deems the top contender. If they don’t think it is you, then you need to do something about that! We Are…. The Nation…. Of Domination starts to play from the speakers as Ernie Ladd leads the U.S. Champion to the interview area where he asks the little guy (Dundee) to step aside for the Man who is the #1 contender for the UWF World Title, Hacksaw Butch Reed! Lance takes a moment to hype up Lawler vs Reed, title vs title match at Thanksgiving Thunder. Lawler seems very confident as does Reed and neither gives an inch. All of a sudden, Dundee challenges Hacksaw Reed to a match today. Reed laughs but accepts as he thinks it would be a good tune up for his title shot. All of a sudden Jerry Jarrett comes out and informs the Nation of Domination that if Reed loses to Dundee today, he will no longer be the #1 contender for the UWF title but Superstar Dundee will be and he will get the title shot at Thanksgiving Thunder. Ladd and Reed are upset! Dundee is shaking his head up and down and Lawler has a very quizzical look on his face! MATCH THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR WITH PAUL ELLERING DEFEATS MIKE GRAHAM WITH A WARRIOR SMASH! COMMERCIAL MATCH THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS/ JIM CORNETTE BEAT DIXIE DYNAMITE & TOMMY GILBERT AS EATON HIT AN ALABAMA JAMMER ON GILBERT Cornette and the Midnight Express head to the interview desk. Lance Russell: You guys seem to be in a good mood! Jim Cornette: Oh yeah we are in a good mood. We are getting to ready to celebrate our championship win this week in Memphis. I mean we are the greatest tag team in the World today and it is going to be great to have the gold back around our waist and the girls on our arms. I mean Beautiful Bobby and Loverboy Denis already have their pick of women but the party down on Beale Street is going to be something to be seen! MATCH JIMMY GOLDEN BEATS DUKE MYERS WITH THE BUCKSNORT DRIVER As the match comes to an end, the Dirty White Boy comes to ringside with Ron Fuller but only words are exchanged as Lance Russell hypes up the Battle of Bucksnort which is going to take place at Thanksgiving Thunder. The only thing that saved Golden from a 2-1 attack was that his tag partner Robert Fuller rushed out to the ring to even the sides which made the DWB an Fuller rethink their plan and head to the locker room. COMMERCIAL MATCH TRACY SMOTHERS DEFEATED KERRY BROWN WITH A SUPERKICK At the interview desk, Smothers was saying that he hoped his tag partner, Steve Armstrong would be back soon as he is healing well from the fireball attack by the Midnight Express. The Rock n Roll Express and Ricky Gibson come out and join the interview where Lance can’t belief the week the Rock n Roll Express are having. First, they had to fight the Fuller Fab Ones in Atlanta where they escaped with their UWF World Titles and then this week they have to defend those belts against Ivan and Vlad Koloff at Thanksgiving Thunder. Lance goes on to hype up our next match in which the Rock n Roll Express and Ricky Gibson are to defend their UWF World 6 Man Titles against Tommy Rich, Austin Idol and Buddy Landell. Ricky Morton: That’s right Lance this is one tough week but we need to stay focused on today’s match and with the help of you fans out there, we will do our best to come out on top. MATCH WORLD 6 MAN TITLE MATCH THE ROCK n ROLL EXPRESS & RICKY GIBSON VS TOMMY RICH, AUSTIN IDOL & BUDDY LANDELL WITH RON FULLER Morton and Rich start off we a little chain wrestling and all 6 men get a little shine in the first 5 minutes until Rich goes for the eye poke giving the heels the advantage which they carry for about 4 minutes. The end came when Morton escaped danger and tagged in Robert Gibson who took control of the ring. As Gibson and Morton were getting set to use the double dropkick, Gibson backed to his own corner where Ricky encouraged him with a little slap on the back. WHAM…. Double drop kick on Idol and he falls through the ropes to the floor. WHAM… double drop kick on Landell and he follows Idol out of the ring. The Rock n Roll Express follow them out. The ref is watching the action on the floor as Wildfire comes in and drags Ricky Gibson into the ring as he has some sort of chain around Gibson’s neck. Wildfire disguises this choke as a sleeper and Gibson goes out and the ref calls for the bell. Lance is really unsure of what has happened but sees the ref raises Wildfires hand and gives Fuller’s gang the titles. Lance is so confused he calls the ref over and asks him how Fuller’s gang can be granted the win the legal men were Robert Gibson and Tommy Rich and Robert was out of the ring at the time. The ref cleared it up as he said that Ricky had tagged himself in when he slapped his brother on the back. Lance Russell: Well fair enough I guess. I still think we had an illegal choke going on there! Fans, you and I might not like it but we have new UWF World 6 Man Champions! COMMERCIAL MAIN EVENT HACKSAW BUTCH REED WITH PEERNIRE LADD VS SUPERSTAR DUNDEE WINNER TO GET UWF TITLE SHOT AT THANKSGIVING THUNDER Dundee was holding his own here against the muscle-bound Hacksaw but Reed shoved Dundee into the ref and the ref went down. We now saw Ladd hit the ring and catch Dundee with a Big Boot. Lawler rushed down and went toe to toe with Ladd as the two took their fight to the floor. Reed takes full advantage of the Big Boot and follows up a football tackle with a Gorilla Press Slam and covered Dundee just as the ref stumbled over for the three count. Lance Russell: Wow, what a night of wrestling we had. It looks like Lawler and Dundee are back on the same page but it will still be title vs title this week as Lawler faces Reed at Thanksgiving Thunder at the Mid-South Coliseum. So long from Knoxville.

Lutte has quickly become a Must Read with the clown angle and BR angle coming to a head. Love the build up here! Great work

Rain, I am sorry if I came across wrong. You do a much better job then I do at developing talent and angles and so much more knowledge of wrestling then I do. I had just been watching so some Mid-South stuff from this period and Steiner was Richsteiner or something like that and he seemed so raw and I was surprised as the times I saw him were much later and he was a stud. The Rick Steiner I saw was not ready for a title shot but you are so right that he is big and athletic and is on the come.

Wow, so much going in the AWA and so well written as usual. Verne has been allowing his son to take some beatings of late but this was a nice set up for the Killer Bees to come in and put down the Onyx Express . Love the push of Curt Henig here as he could be huge for you. I love your knowledge of venues like how you said you needed a clean finish in Detroit. The one thing I would watch is pushing the youngsters too quickly. Rick Steiner is still a year and half away from his first belt and Regal is almost 8 years away. You have done a nice job of developing them but your roster is so stacked that they might have to bide their time. I am very guilty of this also with the likes of Ultimate Warrior and Shane Douglas

Even though we are a few months away, we can start to see the makings of Wrestlemania. Big stars are starting to set their eyes on the major prizes of the WWF.

Very fun card. Bad News and Iceman is a perfect pairing. I agree with Dawho in that Adonis and Murdoch over the Monarchy was the highlight.

I only saw WWC a few times as a kid but this is exactly as I remembered it. Crazy fans, wild brawls and complete over the top violence and total chaos. I am getting more and more familiar with the names and enjoying this a lot. Your Americans work great as Bam Bam is powerful and wild enough and Dutch is Dirty enough. I am happy that we now have a place where Carlos Colon can rise to the top as he should in 1983. A few of us had him but had no idea what to do with him but now he is a star. The same could be said for Al Madril who seems to be rising to the top.

As always, the TV show has done a great job setting up the big weekly show. I must say that I had a smile as I saw Adonis with Murdoch. Both of these guys deserve a lot more love than we have given them in this game and maybe now they are set to be the stars they were in real life. Eddie Gilbert was great at whatever he did in real life and I could see him as one of your two biggest heels with Jimmy Garvin.

MAJOR UWF SHOWS FOR THE WEEK OF 11/16 ATLANTA, GEORGIA- THE OMNI (REASON FOR 4 TITLES MATCHES: FIRST TIME UWF HAS EVER CROSSED INTO GEORGIA AND WANTS A BIG HIT) Dixie Dynamite defeats Tommy Gilbert with a top rope dropkick. The Midnight Express with Jim Cornette defeats Mike Graham & Tracy Smothers as Cornette clocked Graham with the Tennis Racket shot to the back and Beautiful Bobby followed it up with an Alabama Jammer! Robert Fuller beat The Dirty White Boy by DQ as Ron Fuller attacked his brother. The DWB left Robert lying in the middle of the ring with the Bucksnort Blaster. UNITED STATES TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH: The champs, Ron Garvin and Bob Armstrong won an all-out brawl with Bruiser Brody and Stan Hansen as Garvin followed up his big right hand with a Garvin Stomp on Brody. The Bullet and Hansen were fighting it out all over the arena at the time. UNITED STATES TITLE MATCH: The challenger, Hacksaw Duggan defeats Hacksaw Reed by DQ as Ernie Ladd came in and connected with a Big Boot to Duggan. UWF WORLD TITLE MATCH: The Rock n Roll Express defeated Tommy Rich & Austin Idol with Ron Fuller as Idol was caught with a double dropkick after Morton played the face in peril and made as amazing tag to Gibson who came in like a house afire and knocked Wildfire out onto the arena floor. UWF WORLD TITLE MATCH: Jerry “The King” Lawler defeated Buddy Landell with Superstar Dundee as the Special Referee. Dundee actually seemed to call this down the middle but many say he slow counted the ending giving Landell every chance to kick out after a Lawler piledriver. BATON ROUGE- RIVERFRONT CENTROPLEX The Ultimate Warrior with Paul Ellering defeats Mad Dog Boyd with a Warrior Smash Crippler Rip Oliver with Skandar Akbar defeats Porkchop Cash with a piledriver JYD & Terry Taylor beat Mr. Wrestling II & Shane Douglas as JYD hit a Big Thump on Douglas. It looked like Wrestling II didn’t even try to make the save. 6 Man Tag Match: Haku, Kamala, and Konga with Skandar Akbar defeated Cowboy Bill Watts, Dr. Death Steve Williams & Wendell Cooley as the match went a little bonzo gonzo and the ref didn’t see Akbar pull out a leather strap and hit Cooley which allowed for Kamala to crush him with a Ugandan Splash. The Road Warriors defeated Ivan & Nikta Koloff as they connected with a Doomsday Device on Ivan as the ref was forcing Nikita out of the ring. Nikita didn’t react well and then hit the ref with a Russian Sickle forcing him to be carried out on a stretcher. STEEL CAGE MATCH: Dusty Rhodes defeated Vlad Koloff in a bloody battle of wills. This was Vlad’s first ever loss in the UWF as the fans hope they have finally seen a chink in the armor of the Koloffs!

And the BR angle just got huge!

MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA 11/16/1985 Hello again everybody. Welcome to UWF Wrestling, coming to you from the Alabama State Fairgrounds in Montgomery, Alabama. I am Lance Russell and my partner today is Dave Brown and let’s get right to the video tape from this week in Nashville. We see a video tape of the Bob Armstrong and his mystery partner who turned out to be none other than Ron Garvin defeat the Midnight Express with Jim Cornette for the United States tag team titles as Cornette’s tennis racket scheme backfired. When the video is over the new champs are at the interview desk. Bob Armstrong: Lance, you know what they say about payback. It’s a Lance Russell: Now, now Bob. I know you are excited but this is a family show. Ron Garvin: That’s right, it’s a family show Lance and don’t forget what Cornette did to Bob’s own son. Burnt his face so bad with a fireball he has been out of action for over a month. Same thing he did to me and when my brother went after the little weasel, he used his mommies lawyers to get my brother fired from the UWF. So you betcha Lance, winning these titles feels great and in less than two weeks in the Mid-South Coliseum and Thanksgiving Thunder we are going to prove this was no fluke! Lance Russell: Well let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves. This week the UWF is returning to the great state of Georgia where we will be in Atlanta and you will be taking on two of the best in the business in Bruiser Brody and Stan Hansen. Bob Armstrong: Lance, you are right. We are going to be in for the fight of our lives but fighting is just what the Bullet and Rugged Ron like to do! MATCH JIMMY GOLDEN DEEFEATS LARRY CHEATEM WITH THE BUCKSNORT DRIVER (PILEDRIVER) As soon as the match is over Ron Fuller and the Dirty White Boy came out and get right in the face of Golden. It seems that these two have had a beef for a long time in Bucksnort, Tennessee and the Dirty White Boy has challenged Golden to a Bucksnort Street Fight at Thanksgiving Thunder. Golden accepts and the DWB and Fuller look at each and start grinning. WHAM! Golden low blows Fuller and then hits DWB with his Bucksnort Driver. Fuller and DWB are left in the center of the ring as the crowd cheers Golden. Golden might be a fan favorite right now but Fuller and the DWB were just reminded that he is nastier than an ornery rattlesnake. COMMERCIAL When we come out of break we find Jerry “the King” Lawler in full royal garb along with Superstar Dundee at the interview desk. We first find out that Lawler almost became the first person to pin Vlad Koloff last week but Uncle Ivan came in and caused a DQ with his Russian chain. Jerry Lawler: That’s right Lance. As I heard Dusty Rhodes say on Power Pro that he is getting sick and tired of these Koloffs always using the numbers game to their advantage. Well so am I. Uncle Ivan is going to go on bragging about how Nikita and Vlad have never been pinned or submitted! Well that is because when they are about to go down , they get DQ on purpose. All of a sudden, a recovered Ron Fuller comes out with and Buddy Landell. Buddy Landell: Whoooo! Enough about the Koloffs. You have less than a week before I take you to school and lock in the Figure 4 and you start crying in agony. I am going jet setting to Atlanta and coming back to Memphis with the title. Whoooooo! The party we are going to have down on Beale Street. Jerry Lawler: Listen up punk! I am getting real sick of this Ric Flair gimmick you got going on. I know Ric and you are no Ric Flair. Another thing that you are not….. championship material. I am going to Atlanta as a champ and coming back to Memphis a King! Buddy Landell: The only way you come back as the champion is if you own the refs in Atlanta like you do in here in Memphis. Jerry Lawler: Okay, I am getting sick of this. Bockwinkle started it and now I am listening to this bottled blonde think I need the refs help to beat him. How about this! You two vs us two tonight and the winner gets their partner as the special guest referee in Atlanta for the World Title . Landell and Fuller accept but Dundee seems surprised. He is heard mumbling about how come Lawler didn’t come help him when he was attacked by Rich and Idol in Nashville but he has to be ready to help the Kingfish whenever he says jump! MATCH TRACY SMOTHERS & MIKE GRAHAM BEAT THE MARTINEZ BROTHERS WITH A SUPERKICK BY SMOTHERS ON HECTOR. COMMERCIAL WE ARE…. THE NATION…. OF DOMINATION is playing as Ernie Ladd leads the United States champion, Hacksaw Butch Reed, to the interview desk where they are both sick and tired of the UWF making him fight these unqualified challengers that he crushes in just a couple of minutes. Reed starts challenging the entire locker room and says he doesn’t think anyone can survive 10 minutes in the ring with him! Reed goes to the ring to wait and see if anyone accepts his challenge. As Hacksaw Reed and Ladd wait in the ring the crowd explodes MATCH HACKSAW BUTCH REED WITH ERNIE LADD VS HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN The match goes the full 10 minutes and Duggan was able to stand toe to toe with Reed. He even outsmarted Ladd who tried to give him a Big Boot but Duggan ducked under it and then caught him with a football tackle. As time expired, Duggan was in control and begged for 5 more minutes but Reed refused. This brought out Jerry Jarrett who said there will not be five more minutes tonight but there will be 30 more in Atlanta as Duggan showed he not only can last 10 minutes with the United States Champion but he just might leave Atlanta as the champion. COMMERCIAL MATCH TOMMY “WILDFIRE” RICH & AUSTIN IDOL WITH RON FULLER VS DIXIE DYNAMITE & TOMMY GILBERT We find out that this is just a tune up for Fuller’s Fab Ones as they have been granted a World Title shot this week in Atlanta against the Rock n Roll Express. The Fab Ones use plenty of questionable tactics here but come out on top after a Lou Thesz Press by Rich along with a hand full of tights on Gilbert. The problem was that they then made an example of their opponents as they continue the attack long after the bell. This brought out the Rock n Roll Express where two double dropkick follow a wild brawl and leave the completely over the top Express in charge of the ring! Lance can’t wait to see Morton and Gibson due that to the Fuller Fab Ones in a real match in Atlanta. COMMERCIAL MAIN EVENT JERRY “THE KING” LAWLER & SUPERSTAR DUNDEE VS RON FULLER & BUDDY LANDELL (WINNIING TEAM’S PARTNER WILL BE THE REF IN THE UWF WORLD TITLE SHOT BETWEEN LAWLER & LANDELL IN ATLANTA) Lawler and Dundee got the win after Lawler hit a middle rope fist drop on Fuller but it was not smooth sailing for Lawler and Dundee. At one point, Dundee was holding Landell and Lawler went to clock him but Landell moved and Lawler clocked Dundee. Dundee actually went back at Lawler but cooler heads prevailed. For the win, Lawler is “rewarded” with Dundee as the Special Referee for his World Title Match against Landell in Atlanta. Lance Russell and Dave Brown wonder if this is the best thing for Lawler as he in Dundee seem to be on the outs again. Lance Russell: So long from Montgomery.

UWF would like Stan Hansen and Bruiser Brody for November for November 18th

I love the triangle match for the title. Also Lawler and Flair together could be Heaven or it could be Hell! Great upcoming cards
