MICHAEL COLE welcomes the audience to the show and reminds them of the CLASH OF THE CHAMPIONS!'
He also says he'll have more info,including the line up for the CLASH at the end of the show!
1ST MATCH: SUPERSTAR BILLY GRAHAM w/LORD ALFRED HAYES and JAKE ROBERTS vs DOMINIC DENUCCI
The veteran DENUCCI tries his best but between SBG'S power advantage and the distration of having HAYES and ROBERTS on the outside,was too much for DOM to overcome and he eventually ended up submitting to the bearhug!
After the match SBG gets on the house mic and calls out WWF Heavyweight champ MAGNIFICANT MURACO!
SBG says if he could run that big goof BRUISER BRODY outta the WWF then beating MURACO for the WWF title will be child's play!
JAKE then gets on the mic running down how he destroyed the so called legend of RODDY PIPER!
But before he can continue,the crowd pops as RODDY PIPER runs down to the ring !
PIPER knocks HAYES on his ass...eye gouges SBG and then starts reigning blows down on ROBERTS!
But the numbers game is too big to overcome as all three men are beating down PIPER!
Soon tho the crowd roars as WWF Champ,the MAGNIFICENT MURACO runs in to even things up!
MURACO and PIPER get the edge and eventually chase SBG,JAKE and LORD ALFRED HAYES from the ring!
As the bad guys retreat,PIPER and the champ shake hands!
2ND MATCH:"THE LIVING LEGEND" BRUNO SAMMARTINO vs JOHNNY ROZS
RODZ does his usual cowardly cheating mixed in with some actual good wrestling but BRUNO eventually overpowers him and ends it by submission with the over the shoulder back breaker!
COLE tells the viewing audience that with the IWA World tag team champs, BLACK WALL STREET, having to give up the WWF tag TITLES titles last week,that on next week's RAW new WWF tag team champs will be crowned as the DUDLEY will face the ZAMBUII EXPRESS!
3RD MATCH:"MR.WONDERFUL" PAUL ORNDORFF vs TONY GAREA
A really good back and forth match with plenty of great exchanges and reversals and reversals of reversals!
BuT GAREA misses a charge in the corner and ORNDORFF gets GAREA up and hits a devastating pile driver and gets a hard fought pin!
ORNDORFF cuts a promo telling that everyone is making a mistake not talking about him as a top tier guy here in the WWF so he guesses he'll have to take out that punk EDGE to bring his name into the discussion of top guys in the WWF!
4TH MATCH: ROCKY "SOUL MAN" JOHNSON vs JOSE ESTRADA
ROCKY looks great against the game ESTRADA and after hitting a picture perfect drop kick,he climbs to the top rope and hits a flying body press to get the pin and win!
What was surprising was that during this match, the World tag team champions BLACK WALL STREET and the ZAMBUII EXPRESS make their way down to ringside and watch this match!
5TH MATCH: BRET "THE HITMAN" HART vs BARRY HOROWITZ
BRET is looking good here in his beginning of his singles run here and locks on that sharp shooter to get the submission win!
MICHAEL COLE is in the ring and brings out the IWA World tag team champs-BLACK WALL STREET who are accompanied by the ZAMBUII EXPRESS!
BWS starts out by predicting the their brothers-the ZAMBUII EXPRESS will win the WWF tag team titles !
COLE asks how its been being the world champs and BWS goes off!
They talk about how ever since they've won the world titles that absolutely no one has stepped up to the plate and faced them!
They say they do have a title defense next week on NITRO against the team they defeated to win the titles from-The Freebirds- but that should be an easy defense!
They then say they'll start going overseas to defend their WORLD title because everyone in the IWA are a bunch of cowards and BWS says they wouldn't be surprised if they weren't being black balled with collusion between all the IWA territories because the IWA isnt ready for having all black tag team world champions that the owners can't manipulate!
They say they hear a lot of barking but that's just what it is...all bark-no bite!
MATCH #6-EDGE vs LOUIE SPICCOLI
EDGE is not playing around as he decimates SPICOLLI and ends it with a vicious spear !
Afterwards EDGE calls out ORNDORFF and challenges him for next week!
