Magnum TA vs Nikita Koloff match 6

 

This is another high end nomination . Very similar to #7 but different enough. The crowd was scary when it 1st looked like Magnum lost. When TA wins with the belly to belly it was throwing babies in the air.

Rock n Roll Express/Murdoch vs Anderson's/Tully

8/23/86

MX vs Rock n Roll Express.

The commercial placement killed the match. Felt like a Raw match in that regard.

Finish of Dusty and Flair EXTRA

Dusty promo-EXTRA

Magnum TA vs Nikita Koloff Match 7

This is a high end nomination . It told a compelling story inside the ring , and hooked the crowd on the outside. Nikita channels Ivan and shines up Magnum and even takes a big bump to the outside . Magnum really cranks on the arm. Nikita starts the heat and start destroying TA's neck and back. This was good stuff. We build to a finish that sees TA piledrive Ivan on the floor. Now Krusher is out and distracts. Nikita nails TA with the chain for the win. I loved that finish.

World Wide Wrestling 8/16/86

Next we get the clips from St. Louis where Flair won the title back from the injured Dusty. Flair then comes out and gives shit to David Crockett who is pissed that Flair beat Dusty to win the title and Flair is awesome here talking about how Dusty lost and why he and the Horsemen rule the world. Extra material.

Then we get a promo with Paul Jones and his Army for the 8/28 show in Los Angeles.

Best of 7 Series - Match 6 for the US Heavyweight Title: Magnum TA vs. Nikita Koloff (8/10/86)

Magnum is down 3-2 so he must win here to stay alive. I loved Magnum working over Nikita's left arm early and it was just so odd watching Magnum work an actual match on TV not a squash match. We go to a break with Nikita starting to get some traction and we get a Dick Murdoch promo about Dusty losing the title to Flair which was good. We come back to the match where Nikita had Magnum in a rest hold but Magnum would send him to the corner shoulder first on the bad arm. Nikita though would come back with the Cobra Clutch and from there he starts working over Magnum's neck then we go to another break. We come back and Magnum hits Nikita with a desperation shot but Nikita would get Magnum back down with a rest hold. Magnum comes fighting back though throwing some bombs and he had Nikita pinned but Krusher put Nikita's foot on the rope. Nikita then rammed Magnum into Tommy Young sending him to the floor then he hit Magnum with the Russian Sickle but Young was on the floor. Roughhouse Fargo would run out to make the count but Magnum's foot was under the bottom rope right in front of Tommy's face. Tommy then told Fargo what happened and they reversed the decision with Magnum getting a Belly-To-Belly on Nikita to win the match as the fans went apeshit. This had two commercial breaks but it's a damn good match and it is a fairly easy nomination.

Next we get a promo from Flair with Cornette about the 8/28 show in Los Angeles where Flair namedrops his LA friends.

Cornette then calls out Baby Doll where he calls her a fat cow then demands an apology from Dusty. Cornette is amazing just ripping up Baby Doll then Bubba attacked Baby Doll which brought out Dusty where he gets jumped by the MX until the babyfaces pulled him off. Definite extra.

"Capt. Redneck" Dick Murdoch & The Rock n Roll Express (Robert Gibson & Ricky Morton) vs. Tully Blanchard & The Minnesota Wrecking Crew (Ole & Arn Anderson) (8/10/86)

What a fucking match this is and we get just a little of it but it was fun as shit.

World Wide Wrestling 8/23/86

NWA World Tag Titles: The Rock n Roll Express (Robert Gibson & Ricky Morton) © vs. The Midnight Express ("Loverboy" Dennis Condrey & "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton) (8/17/86)

It was announced before the match that the RnR got the betls back the night before in Philadelphia and HOLY SHIT the fans were fucking insane for the RnR here....this was an amazing visual. This was worked at a very fast pace as both teams were tearing it up here. Morton plays FIP and is awesome of course taking a lot of punishment even from Cornette's racquet. Morton would lock on a desperation sleeper which brought Gibson in and it was a wild scene now with Cornette coming in to use the racquet on Morton which Tommy Young saw calling a DQ. Damn I wanted so much more here.

Then we get a promo from Tully & JJ talking up the 8/28 show in Los Angeles where Tully eventually lost his National Title to Wahoo.

Next we get clips of Dusty vs. Flair from NWA Pro and Bob Caudle then interviews Flair & Baby Doll next and Flair said that it was only natural that she would be walking with him not Dusty. Baby Doll said that if you aren't a champion you are nothing and that she will finally ride Space Mountain. Slam dunk extra.

Caudle then interviews Dusty who doesn't know what the hell happened but he is glad that he knows where the lines are drawn. Dusty calls Baby Doll a jezebel and he just starts going off on everyone. Slam dunk extra.

Best of 7 Series - Match 7 for the US Heavyweight Title: "Russian Nightmare" Nikita Koloff vs. Magnum TA (8/17/86)

Magnum works over Nikita's left arm furiously like he did in their last match but a missed cross body block to the floor turned the tide in Nikita's favor. Nikita would ram Magnum's back against the apron and began focusing heavily on the back trying to weaken Magnum from using the Belly-To-Belly. Magnum makes a fiery comeback until he goes to the floor after Ivan where he gives him a piledriver which brought out Krusher. Magnum had the Belly-To-Belly on Nikita as Krusher had Tommy Young occupied. Magnum brought Krusher into the ring as Nikita got back up where he got the chain wrapped it around his arm and hit a Russian Sickle to win the title. This was a helluva damn match and a solid nomination.

Jimmy Garvin & Precious then cut a promo about the 8/28 show in Los Angeles.

Tony & David close the show distraught over what happened before sending it to Bob Caudle in the locker room with the Russians who are celebrating their victory. Extra material.
