Gordon : A good win for the Rock N Roll Express . Gentlemen I’m told you have a letter here from Jim Crockett .
Ricky : That’s right Gordon , it’s under your desk daddy . We made a request and we are gonna find out on live tv if it was accepted .
Gordon : Well ok , let’s take a look . It reads Dear Mr . Morton and Mr . Gibson your request was filed . Our offices met and after several hours of discussion we have decided that we will indeed grant your request of a steel cage match with the Midnight Express at Saturday Night’s Main Event : Sacrifice! However there are stipulations. One both teams must tag in and out . To insure this is fair two referees will be assigned . One in the inside and one on the outside . The inside referee is to make sure of legal tags and to count . The outside referee is to make there is no outside interference.
Suspended from ringside will be not only Big Bubba Rogers and Jim Cornette , but Wild Bill Irwin and El Gigantesco de Lucha . This will also be a 30 minute Iron team match the team with the most pinfalls or submissions will be the winner . Finally the losing team can never challenge for the AWA Tag Team Titles again . Thank you for your request . Sincerely, Jim Crockett Jr . President of the National Wrestling Alliance.
Robert : Hell yeah , we gotta make the most of it Ricky !!!
Morton : Bobby , you got that right . This is it for us . If we lose we can’t challenge for the belts here . We already got an offer on the table from Jess McMahon to go to New York , but Chicago over this last year has become our home . Bobby , let’s do this .
Gordon : Thank you gentlemen, we’ll be back .

Gordon : Welcome back and I have The Rock joining me out here , sir , I know Eddie Gilbert has been a thorn in your side for quite some time now . We had some pre recorded comments concerning you . I would like you to view these comments without saying anything then get your reaction afterward . Let’s take a look .
VTR : Eddie Gilbert is seen sitting in a hot tub surrounded by women . He’s pouring champagne for all of them . He stops and looks into the camera .
Gilbert : Rock , I wanted to show you , you aren’t the only guy that leads a charmed life . I mean take a look around me . This is what happens when your every woman’s dream though . So Rock , I know you want to hurt me . Because I’m smarter than you . I’m better looking than you and I’m a better wrestler than you .
You see Rock , you and I both know you can’t touch me , but I can get to you anytime , anywhere I want , because despite all your funny catch phrases and your wit , your acting skills . Oh wait , you have none . Hahaha . Anyway , you’re still a big dumb rejected football player who couldn’t start for Miami. I don’t like you Rock .
I’ve decided I will give you a chance though . Now I hear on June 16th at the United Center that there will be a big AWA show called Wrestlerock 2 ! I won’t be there , I promise . Chicago smells like an armpit . You know who will be . Superstar Billy Graham . Rock on June 16th at Wrestlerock 2 , all you have to do is beat him . Pin him 1…..2….3 . You beat him and I’ll grant your wish . You get me in a match , but I pick the match . If you lose and you will lose Rock , I’ll continue to torment you . I like tormenting you . Well , Rock , we have a deal ? If you’ll excuse me o gotta keep making these ladies happy .
End VTR
Gordon : Rocky , your thoughts ?
Rock : Gordon Solie , so I take Eddie Gilbert is afraid and will instead send Superstar Billy Graham’s ugly bald ass after the Rock ! The Rock says this , Superstar Billy Graham if you wanna go one on one with the great one , you got it . The Rock will beat jabroni ass all over Chicago and then the Rock will take on your bi life partner Eddie Gilbert ……
Someone clotheslines the Rock from behind !!
Gordon : Wait a minute , Superstar Billy Graham is here ??
Graham stomps on the Rock then powerbombs him through the podium . From there he hits a Full Nelson Facebuster on the floor . He drags the Rock’s face all over the studio . Graham is yelling .
Graham : Come on Rock . Do something . You can’t , can you ? You can’t beat the power of the Superstar Daddy !!! Come on Rock . Here how about this , baby !!!
Graham hits a Full Nelson Slam in the Rock through the time keepers table !!
Finally Greg Gagne, Jim Brunzell and Roman Reigns run out and give chase .
Gordon : Someone get an ambulance . The Rock is hurt . We’ll be back .

Gordon : Welcome back . Roman Reigns is here . Sir ….
Reigns : The Samoan traditions have been upheld for centuries. When blood is attacked , blood of the enemy is spilled . My cousin is on his way to the hospital . Eddie Gilbert , Superstar Billy Graham , Sheepherders . Very soon , you will find out what happens when blood is attacked .
Gordon : Very well , let’s go to the ring .
The High Flyers vs Mr . Fuji & Mr . Saito : Verne is a bit under the weather , so Jimmy agreed to step on and you can tell , Jimmy wants no part of tagging . He is just going though the motions . Greg gets caught in the corner of Fuji and Saito and they work him over . Jimmy just walks out of the match leaving Greg to try and fend off Saito’s painful Scorpion Leg Lock ! Greg taps out .
Gordon : What on earth ? We’ll be be back .
Break
Ole Anderson & Nick Bockwinkle vs Dan Spivey & Mike Rotunda: Good back and forth match , but Ole and Nick little by little have taken a piece of Rotunda’s leg . In the end after Nick has held him in a figure four which was reversed , Ole got the tag . Dropped an elbow on the back of Rotunda’s head and then submitted him in a ankle lock .
The two join Gordon at the podium .
Gordon : Mr . Bockwinkle, Mr . Anderson you two have seem to have gotten on the same page .
Ole : Gordon , first let me say , nobody slaps you around and Patterson and Stevens never forget that . Now Mike is hurt and will be out for awhile . This is wrestling and things like this happen . Nick and I we go back further than anyone thinks . You see Nick lives on Beverly Hills , but he’s Minnesota born and bred . We were rivals in high school . College we were both Golden Gophers and we didn’t like each other then .
Bockwinkle : No , Mr . Anderson and I were in the same weight class in college he was number 1 and I was 2 . I deserved to be number 1 and tried to take it from him . So I ended up moving down in weight , but it never set well with me . Post graduation , I went to Harvard and then got my degree in psychology, I’m actually a PHD . I don’t need a PHD though to know this man is a notorious bone breaker . This is the man I need to help me run the Bay Area Bad Boys out of the territory .
Ole : That’s right . Stevens , Patterson , at some point , we are going to get you and we will break an arm , a leg , a rib or something else . Stay up late worrying boys , because we are coming for you .
Gordon : Thank you gentlemen. We’ll be back .
Gordon : Welcome back and joining me now the NWA World Heavyweight Champion . The American Bad Ass The Undertaker . Recently on UWF television, your opponent At Saturday Night’s Main Event The Total Package Lex Luger had this to say ….
Lex Luger: "That's right Jim Ross..... and it starts at Saturday Nights Main Event where I finally get my chance to become the NWA World champion! Now Undertaker, make no mistake about it.... I have all the respect for you in the world. But unfortunately your the only thing standing in my way of winning that title! But I'm in the best shape of my life and I'm ready! Anything other than leaving as world champion that night is unacceptable!
Taker : Lex Luger , I appreciate your power , your toughness and your heart , son . All that will get you nowhere . I got a counter for your your final hold . I am also coming in with an arsenal of weapons the likes of which you have never seen . Son , you’re going to have to accept what you deem unacceptable, you are not walking out the NWA World Heavyweight Champion . Fitting name it’s called Sacrifice. You are going to be just that a sacrifice to the wall of men I have made famous . Then one Man Gang at Great American Bash , you’ll go right up next to Lex Luger on that wall .
Gordon : Thank you , sir . The NWA World Heavyweight Champion . The Undertaker . When we come back , it’s time for the main event . We’ll be back .
Break
Tommy “ Wildfire Rich & The Enterprise Tully Blanchard vs Evolution: This thing never makes it to the ring . The four men battle all over the studio . Chairs are used . Wood fragments from the steps are used and a screw driver which Orton stuck in Rich’s forehead was used . Security came out and separated them . The show fades out but not before we see Tully cradling Tommy yelling for a damn ambulance!
