GRAHAM is no slouch here but JAKE uses his usual snaeky but effective tactics to subdue GRAHAM and soon hits a short arm clothesline before ending it with a ddt!
ROVERTS slithers over to LES!
LES:" Well JAKE, tha was no easy task yet somehow you made it look pretty easy ! You have been on quite a roll lately!"
JAKE:" HA! HA! What you call quite a roll, i call the enevitable! First i took care of SECW'S golden boy TITO SANTANA and now i'm going to take care of the man that has been running from me ever since i got here! RICKY STEAMBOAT, time for you to make a decision ion your life young man! Look inside your soul, deep down, farther than you ever have, and ask yourself, do I, RICK STEAMBOAT, have what it takes, deep down inside, to best the man known as the snake? Ask yourself that question, look at yourself in the mirror and try to believe the lie that your reflection tells you as you actually believe you have what it takes to step in that ring and prove it! But while you stand there in your reflections of lies, JAKE ROBERTS will show you the truth and believe me when i say that the truth will not set you free as the truth is very painful and unforgiven but dont you worry my man, the truth will be revealed to you and very soon!"
THATCHE:" Well, some very ominous words for RICKY STEAMBOAT but i am sure he will definitely have someything to say about JAKE ROBERTS!"

The HERDERS are ruthless as ever and just destroy their opponents as LEWIS gets tossed to the outside and slammed into the guardrail and never returns , leaving poor HART to suffer the brunt of the punishment before LUKE WILLIAMS hits a brain bister on im and gets the pin!
Up next we get a VTR from DUSTY RHJODES in the locker room ,right after hios brutal bullrope match with BRUISER BRODY !

JERICHO has a litle bit of trouble with the size disadvantage at first but works thru it and eventually catches ZANE in the walls of jericho to get a submission win!
PERCY PRINGLE is out next with the NATURAL DISASTERS !
PRINGLE:" LES THATCHER , everyone saw what happened at the IDES OF MARCH and after all was said and done , my men and i left those two clowns laying in a heap on the mat, wishing they were never born! So we showed them their victory was a fluke and showed them just who the real champs are! I heard that the goof called SMASH was a little too smashed and is out of action for a few weeks! Well we are caring men so if AX wants to just come out here and hand those title belts to us, then we will allow him to walk away with some bit of dignity! So AX, you have one week to respond! Use what little brain you have and make the right decision!"
4th Match: BRUNO SAMMARTINO vs ED GANTNER
BRUNO is really tested here as GANTNER is one strong mofo and has his moments! But the living legend overcomes all this and surprisingly gets the bearhug on him and gets the submission win!
LES:" Fans, one of the biggest matches we had at Ides of March was between ONE MAN GANG and HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN and nothing was settled! I'd like to bring out HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN and get his thoughts!"
DUGGAN comes out to a big pop from the crowd
DUGGAN:" Now LES ol' buddy! That big ol' mean and nasty GANG thought he was gonna come in that ring and push HACKSAW around but I think i showed him and that fat little rooster HUMPERDINK that i know a thing or two about fighting ! So anytime, anyplace they wanna run this thing back then bring it on tough guys!! HOOOOOOOO1"
MAIN EVENT
SECW TV TITLE MATCH
DON MURACO(C) vs SID VICIOUS w/ PERCY PRINGLE
VICIOUS wins the several tests of strength early on but it definitely wasnt easy! MURACO avoids a big boot from VICIOUS and takes over as PERCY has a fit on the outside! He jumps on the ring apron and as the ref goes to admonish him, he tosses a chain to SID! As the ref does niot see this, SID clocks the champ and lays out MURACO!
As PERCY finally gets off the apron an dthe ref turns around, SID makes the cover but as the ref makes the count, SUPERSTAR BILLY GRAHAM runs down and knocks over PRINGLE as he enters the ring and stops the three count! SBG tries to inform the ref about the chain but the ref signals for the bell and dqing MURACO for outside interference! SID is pissed and attacks SBG but by this time MURACO has recovered enough to get some payback on VICIOUS and he and SBG toss SID outta the ring!
LES:" Well that was a crazy ending and i am not sure whats gonna become of this but im sure EDDIE GRAHAM will have a ruling next week! I just received word that next week we will have one half of the SECW tag champions-DEMOLITION AX and im sure he has something to say about the NATURAL DISASTERS , and rest assured..."
The crowd boos as SECW Heavyweight Champion- RIC FLAIR makes his way out!
FLAIR:" Now hold on one minute! I don't give a damn about next week, Let's talk about what happened this week ! The utter disrespect coming outta the mouth of that ghetto trash BUTCH REED! BOY, you better realize just why i am the best damn wrestler in this business and why they call me the dirtiest player in the game! Now one thing you said correctly, in fact probably the on ly thing you said coreectly, was i wasted good money on that bum Bad News but im the Natue boy and money is no object as i have plenty of it big boy and i aint afraid to throw it around! But on e thing i do not tolerate is some bum like you having the nerve to come out here and think you can say your name and mine in the same segment! So those big muscles may make you look good but that tiny muscle in that hard head of yours doesnt seem to be working quite so well! So why dont you bring your ass out here and do something about it!"
FLAIR hits the ring and throws off his suit jacket and puts his rolex in his pocket and tells for REED!
After almost a minute REED comes out in his street clothes and the fight is on as the crowd goes nuts!
After absorbing a few of FLAIR'S chops, REED takes over and starts ripping off FLAIR's dress shirt and pants but before he can do real damage he is jumped by JAKE ROBERTS!
JAKE pounds away giving FLAIR time to recover and join in on he beatdown!
But no real damage is done as RICKY STEAMBOAT rins in and goes right after JAKE!
REED press slams FLAIR who rolls outta the ring as STEAMBOAT chops the hell outta JAKE before tossing him to the outside!
The crowd is going nuts as REED and STEAMBOAT stand tall and FLAIR and JAKE lick their wounds and head back to the dressing room!
