walkswithwolf we will all get to see how Eaton, Morton and Lane do as singles competitors shortly since they have all made the cut for my upcoming annual tournament.
Card 7 (ULC Main Event) Scottrade Centre, St. Louis Missouri
Larry & Curt Hennig downed Bruiser Costa & Lou Albano. Some good back and forth early on settles in to the Hennigs dominating the action. Hennig overpowers and then gives way to Curt Hennig who slows Costa with a sleeper, connects with The Axe and finishes Costa with a second sleeper hold. *
Jimmy Snuka downed Wild Bill White. White gave The Superfly some anxious moments before Snuka battled back with headbutts and chops. White took the fight outside but Snuka slammed White onto the floor and then dominated the balance of the match taking the three count with a piledriver. * ½
The Leg Breakers (The Destroyer & Greg Valentine) defeated Marty Jannetty & Scott Taylor. Taylor was cut off early in the match and took a significant beating until Jannetty was able to get the hot tag and get his side back into the match. The action went back and forth until Valentine nailed a vertical suplex and then connects with Valentine Chops to Taylor for the three count while Jannetty is blocked by Destroyer from making the save. ***
Harley Race over Brutus Beefcake. Race came to fight tonight but Beefcake proved a worthy opponent matching Race hold for hold early. Race began to overpower Beefcake with suplexes but Beefcake came back during a brawl on the floor slamming Race into a ringside table and then nearly putting Race away with a SLEEPER. Race battled back hitting a VERTICAL SUPLEX, PILEDRIVER and a second VERTICAL SUPLEX for a series of near falls. The fans were backing Beefcake but Race proved to be just too tough and put Beefcake away with another VERTRICAL SUPLEX. ***
King Kong Bundy pinned “Cowboy’ Scott Casey. Casey came out swinging and took the battle to his much larger foe including nailing a BULLDOG but can only get a two count much to the disappointment of the fans. Casey even batters Bundy on the floor and looks to be on verge of victory when a charge to the corner misses allowing Bundy to roll up Casey for a big near fall. Bundy then squashes Casey with a big splash and gets the three count. **
Hacksaw Jim Duggan & Diamond Dallas Page over Ted DiBiase & Frank Dalton by disqualification. Some really solid back and forth action with both sides making timely tags to keep the action even. Dalton and Page brawl in and out of the ring and DiBiase and Duggan thrill the fans with their exchange. Dalton and Page end up back on the floor and Dalton cracks Page with a chair shot earning a disqualification from Morgan Dollar. Both sides brawl their way to the back. * ½
Lou Thesz pinned Buddy Rogers. Rogers gets into it with Morgan Dollar before the bell and Dollar is clearly not impressed. Rogers manages to get out of a stepover toehold facelock and then takes the fight to the floor but Thesz is game and runs Rogers into the ring post when he reverses a whip. Back in the ring, Rogers never recovers and a THESZ PRESS ends it. * ½
Tag Team Champions Road Warriors (Hawk & Animal) battled Foreign Legion (Iron Sheik & Nikolai Volkoff) w/Shawn Daivari to a double disqualification. Sheik and Volkoff crank up the heat and Morgan Dollar appears intimidated by their actions. There was lots of back and forth brawling early on. Animal nailed Nikolai Volkoff with a POWER SLAM for a big near fall before Hawk & Iron Sheik beat each other to a bloody mess during a series of ringside brawls. Back in the ring, the action goes back and forth until Animal and Volkoff go to the floor and refuse to stop brawling leading Morgan Dollar to disqualify both teams. All four men continue to brawl but Daivari tips the scales in favour of the challengers and they leave Hawk and Animal dazed in the ring. **
