episode 1:
Freddie Blassie vs. Don Leon Jonathan - if Jonathan loses, he becomes Blassie's bodyguard:
Blassie tore into the Mormon Giant at the opening bell, quickly taking him to the mat. Blassie scored a near fall after multiple knee drops and proceeded to open a ghastly wound in the Giant's forehead with his razor sharp teeth. The bloodied and blinded Giant tried to fight back but Blassie put DLJ away with the Southern Neckbreaker.
A video package aired showing the long history between Danielson and Muraco in Road of Champions, including Danielson being robbed of the RoC Universal title by Muraco and Fuji months ago.
Bryan Danielson vs. Don Muraco - Loser Leaves Town:
Danielson and Muraco brawled all over the ring area before the bell. The referee herded them into the ring and the match officially started. Danielson took advantage of a missed turnbuckle charge and locked on the LeBell Lock but Muraco was able to get his foot on the ropes. Danielson argued with the referee, thinking Muraco had tapped, and Muraco hit the Asiatic Spike for a near fall. Muraco took control and whipped Danielson to the ropes but Danielson put on the brakes and rolled Muraco up in a small package for a near fall. Muraco went for the spike the second time but Danielson countered it with a LeBell Lock in the center of the ring and Muraco had no choice but to tap out!
Super Crazy vs. Konnan - Special Attraction:
Konnan and Crazy jockeyed for position early on. Konnan took control and hit the sit out facebuster for a near fall. Crazy mounted a comeback and hit the leaping DDT for a near fall. Crazy went to the top rope but Konnan threw him to the mat and hit the 187 but Crazy kicked out. Crazy rebounded and hit a moonsault for a near fall. Crazy dragged Konnan into the corner and hit three moonsaults for another near fall. Konnan made a comeback and hit the somersault clothesline for a near fall. Konnan hit a second 187, nearly knocking Crazy unconscious. Finally, Konnan it a brutal powerbomb, covering Crazy and getting the three count.
Rikidozan vs. Lou Thesz - Lou Thesz's last chance at the RoC Universal title:
Thesz whipped Rikidozan to the buckles and charged in. Rikidozan got his knees up, knocking Thesz to the mat. Rikidozan waited for Thesz to get to his feet and bombarded him with Thunderous Chops. Thesz went down and Rikidozan covered him for the easy three count to retain the gold.

Masked Superstar II started strong but missed a turnbuckle charge and Rikidozan took over. Rikidozan knocked Superstar senseless with a forearm hammer and hit the hiplock for an easy title defense.
Freddie Blassie (with Don Leo Jonathan) vs. Bryan Danielson for the #1 contender spot:
Danielson took control early and locked on the LeBell lock but Blassie made it to the ropes. Danielson dragged Blassie into the middle of the ring and locked on the Guillotine Choke but Blassie managed to escape the hold. Danielson had Blassie reeling and hit the back superplex for a near fall. Blassie rolled out of the ring to recover and Danielson followed him out. Blassie made a comeback and slammed Danielson into the ring steps and rolled him back into the ring. Blassie hit a pair of southern neckbreakers but couldn't put Danielson away. Danielson battled back and locked on the Guillotine choke but Don Leo Jonathan pulled the referee out of the ring. Danielson and DLJ battled on the outside and Blassie recovered enough to hit a low blow, almost resulting in a count out victory. Blassie opened up a cut on Danielson's forehead with a bite and hit a second low blow for a near fall. Danielson got to his feet but Blassie hit another Southern Neckbreaker for the win.
