The New Breed (Chris Champion & Sean Royal) vs. Tommy Angel & Brodie Chase (4/21/87)

FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT TO PARTY!!!!!!!!!!! and it's amazing to me to think that Dusty wanted these guys as heels as they were screaming babyface with their work and their style. After the match, they cut a promo on going after the RnR Express, Valiant, & Lazer-Tron and the fans were giving them shit though for wanting to face the RnR.

Great intro with the New Breed talking shit about the Armstrongs before the real intro.

David & Tony open the show holding the US Tag Titles as the tournament starts today.

Lazer-Tron & "Boogie Woogie Man" Jimmy Valiant vs. Randy Barber & Alan Martin (5/2/87)

Lazer-Tron's music was always a trip to me and the faces win easily.

Nikita is out next for a promo about Luger wanting the US Title.

"Total Package" Lex Luger vs. Jeff Belk (5/2/87)

Another strong win for Luger and this Jeff Belk is a jacked up dude. Luger got Belk for the Torture Rack but couldn't hold on as he fell forward into the ropes and just pinned him in a total botched spot.

Next we get the debut of the Dusty Rhodes video to Can't Judge A Book By It's Cover.

Ronnie Garvin is out next for a promo talking about how he can't wait to get Cornette in a cage because he is going to put him away. Cornette then comes out and Garvin chokes him with his towel until the MX run out to attack him which brings out Barry Windham to make the save and they almost tear the set up. This was a red hot angle and a definite extra as this was like a Memphis angle.

US Tag Titles Tournament - Quarterfinals: Bob & Brad Armstrong vs. The New Breed (Chris Champion & Sean Royal) (5/2/87)

This is a fun looking match on paper for sure. Armstrongs dominate early using their experience as well as agility to keep the New Breed grounded with the Breed doing a good job of bumping and selling for them. Royal would catch Brad with a knee to the back from the apron and that started the New Breed offensive barrage and they worked Brad over good with the fans cheering him on to get the tag. Champion hits his awesome diving axehandle from the top to the floor on Brad that left David & Tony speechless. Brad is so good here with his hope spots and the blind tag was well done as everyone was going nuts. Bob would finally get the hot tag and he ran wild on the heels using his karate blows before Brad joined him until the time ran out for a draw. The Breed then destroyed Brad until Bob made the save. This was a damn good TV match and moves forward as a fairly easy nomination.

Then we get the Flair video that you would see for months and months.

"Russian Bear" Ivan Koloff & Vladimir Petrov vs. Cougar Jay & Jeff Sampson (5/2/87)

This Sampson guy is another jacked up dude but the Russians are way too dominant and they cut a promo afterwards about embarrassing Nikita.

The Midnight Express ("Beautiful" Bobby Eaton & "Sweet" Stan Lane) vs. Larry Clarke & Bill Tabb (5/2/87)

The MX is pissed and they kill these guys as Cornette rants and raves on commentary. After the match, Cornette talks about how the RnR will face the MX next week on TV in the US Tag Titles tournament. Cornette then reads a letter from Jim & Tammy Faye Bakker in support of him. Extra material.

Flair is out next for a promo where he talks about how great he is as well as the Horsemen talking about all the money that they make for themselves and the promotion. Flair then said all he needs now is Precious. Flair is stuntin hard here. Extra material.

The Road Warriors (Animal & Hawk) vs. Mike Force & David Isley (5/2/87)

Total destruction and Isley eats one of the biggest Doomsday Device's ever then we get a promo afterwards. Hawk rips Lex and how he poses which is hilarious.

Mr. Torture is here and he makes an example out of Stevens.
