Big win by Vader over Sting. Nice start, Vegas.

[Pariah]

Was hoping that Country Rock would pull off a first round upset... A tall order against the tough pairing of Handsome Harley and The Axe... And one that just didn't happen...

Fun stuff!

[markyhitch]

I'm looking forward to who Vader eats up next and the elimination tag team match.

[Pariah]

Ugh... The Perfect F'N Show get ousted fun the tourney thanks to a cheap stunt by DiBiase's bloated henchman... Really hope RVD and Hennig serve up some retribution...

Looking forward to Night 2 and since my favorite team is gone, guess I gotta throw my support behind Sting and Muta...

Match #6: Road Warriors defeated Dream Team in a Second Round match

- the Dream Team started this match with some early offense with quick tags and continuously prevented Road Warrior Animal from tagging out to Road Warrior Hawk. Road Warrior Animal finally managed to make the tag and from that point the Road Warriors controlled the majority of the offense. The Road Warriors proceeded to win when Road Warrior Animal pinned Brutus Beefcake via POWERSLAM to get yet another victory over their former enemies and become the first tag team not to receive a bye from the First Round to advance to the Quarter-Finals.

Match #7: Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff (both managed by Shawn Daivari) defeated VWF Champion and VWF Chairman of the Board "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and King Kong Bundy in a Second Round match

Iron Sheik then placed a staggering DiBiase into the CAMEL CLUTCH from which DiBiase was forced to tap out.

- as DiBiase sits in disbelief with shock on his face, Striker and Zbyszko comment that DiBiase's elimination tonight means he has to defend the VWF Championship on Night 4 per the stipulation he arrogantly made about champions who get eliminated within the first three nights of this tournament.

- afterward, RVD and Curt Hennig further irritated DiBiase by announcing they have agreed to join the team of Lou Thesz and Buddy Rogers in the War Games match against DiBiase and his Cabinet at the Great American Bash!

Match #9: Lou Thesz and Buddy Rogers defeated The Destroyer and Gorgeous George in a Second Round match

- Thesz and Rogers advanced when Rogers quickly forced George to tap out to his FIGURE FOUR GRAPEVINE

- afterward, DiBiase (desperate to make sure his enemies Thesz and Rogers do not win this tournament as the winners each get a match they want and both Thesz and Rogers seek another VWF Championship match against DiBiase) appeared and said for the tournament matches he is making for tomorrow he is pitting Thesz and Rogers against Brody and Snuka!

In the Ring: DiBiase says whichever wrestlers survive tonight's special attraction 10 man tag elimination main event wlll be brought back to wrestle at the Great American Bash!

- Rhodes agreed and DiBiase told Rhodes he will have a special attraction bullrope match against an opponent to be determined at Extreme Rules!

- DiBiase said he enjoyed seeing Rhode and Flair together in the ring against each other to end tonight's main event tag match and thus he is going to book Rhodes vs Flair as a singles special attraction match on Night 4 of the MLW Memorial Cup this weekend!

- DiBiase then said he will later assign special attraction matches for both Flair and Windham at the Great American Bash but he is putting "The Enforcer" Anderson on his (DiBiase's) team in the War Games match alongside his Cabinet against his enemies Thesz, Rogers, RVD, and Curt Hennig!
