January 13, 20169 yr comment_5720314 Russian's promo Buddy Landell vs Jeffers Tully interview Dusty Rhodes interview Magnum TA vs Doug Vines Ric Flair interview Extra Ivan Koloff vs Stroud Paul Jones interview Dusty Rhodes promo off with Ivan-EXTRA Abby vs Ligon Tully vs Trippe B&B interview Dusty Rhodes vs Krusher Khruschev I don't have high hopes for this. Ivan rams Dusty's back into the ring and Krusher starts working it. We see him go to the bear hug. We're getting a story, but the work is pretty uninteresting. Rhodes gets a flash pin. The Russians destroy Dusty post match. The finish might be an EXTRA B&B promo Andersons vs South/Finley Magnum TA interview Black Bart vs Rossie Manny/Thunderbolt vs Anderson's promo

Dusty works over Krusher's left arm with a cool headscissors armbar combo early here. Krusher would make a comeback though chunking Dusty to the floor where Ivan would attack him. Krusher would work over Dusty's back with bearhugs but Dusty would fight back even hitting a dropkick. Dusty would get a flash pinfall on a schoolboy after Krusher missed a running smash into the corner. The Russians would then triple team Dusty afterwards working over his back until Bolt, Bull, & Magnum would make the save. Bull & Bolt then cut a promo afterwards.
