First Round Before the first match, a pre-recorded interview was shown with Bobby Heenan and Curt Hennig. Heenan said, "Sure, Harley Race may be the toughest guy walking the planet... and sure, he may be able to piledrive a ham 'n' egger through the mat... he'll suplex you here, suplex you there, he'll suplex you everywhere..." Hennig had a look of concern on his face that morphed into a semi-cocky smile as the Brain finished with, "... but don't worry, he's not... perfect". 1. Curt Hennig defeated Harley Race after a low blow led to the PERFECT PLEX at 8:46 in a terrific opener Heenan was ejected earlier in the match for causing confusion at ringside when it appeared Race had the match won. 2. Magnum TA. KO'd J.J. Dillon before pinning Tully Blanchard with a BELLY-TO-BELLY SUPLEX off the second rope at 14:21 3. Nick Bockwinkel planted Larry Zybszko with his own piledriver and then slapped on the Boston Crab for the win at 8:12 4. Randy Savage defeated Ted DiBiase by disqualification at 8:21 when Virgil interfered. After a brief beatdown, the Macho Man fought back and cleared the ring, noticeably favoring his right leg. 5. Buddy Rogers forced Lou Thesz to finally tap out to the FIGURE FOUR GRAPEVINE at 10:32 6. Gorgeous George (with Cherie Dupre) defeated The Destroyer with his figure four leglock at 12:47 in a great match 7. Stan Hansen brawled passed Big Van Vader, finishing the big man with a vicious LARIAT at 7:13 8. Bruiser Brody pinned a bloody Abdullah the Butcher after the JUMPING KNEE DROP at 5:39
Second Round 9. Curt Hennig (with Bobby Heenan) defeated Magnum TA. with the PERFECT PLEX at 11:57 10. Nick Bockwinkel focused on Randy Savage's knee and forced him to submit to the FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK at 9:50 11. Gorgeous George won by DQ over Buddy Rogers at 7:07 when 'The Nature Boy' took Cherie Dupre's 'Chanel No. 10' away and sprayed George with it 12. Bruiser Brody beat Stan Hansen in a wild match after 2 consecutive JUMPING KNEE DROPS at 9:25 Hansen was pissed at the referee for missing his foot on the bottom rope and began swinging his cowbell recklessly above his head.
Semifinals 13. Curt Hennig pinned Nick Bockwinkel with the PERFECT PLEX at 14:08 following a distraction from Bobby Heenan in a tremendous match The first several minutes of the next match saw Cherie Dupre disinfecting the ring area and George running around trying to avoid Brody 14. Bruiser Brody beat Gorgeous George after several JUMPING KNEE DROPS and then a one hand body slam at 14:59.
Final After Gary Michael Cappetta's ring intros for the Final, Teddy Long came out and announced that Bobby Heenan was "banned from ringside, playa!"... Heenan was beside himself as he was escorted from the ring area ... Senior Official Morgan Dollar is assigned the match to ensure a decisive winner. 15. Bruiser Brody defeated Curt Hennig with the JUMPING KNEE DROP at 10:58 to win the tournament!

I knew I was only probably going to get to play one of these tournaments this weekend, so I had to go with the big Legends tournament!
1) Harley Race (0) defeated Curt Hennig (4) by Count Out
2) Magnum T.A. (1) beat Tully Blanchard (0) by Disqualification after Tully hit him with a chair.
3) Nick Bockwinkel (0) over Larry Zybszko (1) with the Figure Four Leglock in precisely 5 moves
4) Randy Savage (0) beat Ted Dibiase (0) by Disqualification after Dibiase smashed Savage into the Time Keepers Table
5) Lou Thesz (0) defeated Buddy Rogers (3) with a Thesz Press
6) Gorgeous George (2) over The Destroyer (4) with the Spinning Toe Hold
7) Big Van Vader defeated Stan Hansen (4)with a Samoan Drop
8) Abdullah the Butcher (0) beat Bruiser Brody (0) with the Sudanese Meat Cleaver
So Round 1 was a mess with 2 DQ's, a Count Out, Bock squashing Larry, and the Abby/Brody match being a total snore fest.
9) Harley Race (4) over Magnum T.A. (2) with a Swinging Neckbreaker
10) Randy Savage (2) beat Nick Bockwinkel (1) with the Flying Elbow Drop
11) Gorgeous George (0) defeated Lou Thesz (3) with the Spinning Toe Hold
12) Big Van Vader (4) beat Abdullah the Butcher(3) with a MOONSAULT!!!
Round 2 certainly made up for Round 1 as Harley and Magnum put on a freaking war. Savage and Bock wasn't quite what I hoped for, but was still good. Gorgeous George absolutely dominated Thesz, taking control after like 2 moves and never relinquishing control. Then Holy Shit, Vader and Abby put on the match of the tournament, which I never expected.
13) Randy Savage (1) over Harley Race (1) with a Flying Elbow Drop
14) Big Van Vader (1) over Gorgeous George (0) with the Vader Bomb
Semi-Finals were just okay, I can only assume everyone was still tired from Round 2!!
15) Big Van Vader (1) over Randy Savage (1) with the Release Power Bomb
Vader scored a quick pin attempt early, then Savage took over and I thought he had it in the bag when he dropped the Flying Elbow, but Vader kicked out, reversed things 2 moves later and then the Power Bomb spelled the end.
Vader Time!!
