World Championship Wrestlingw/Gordon and Good 'ol JR Jim Ross opened the show and talked about the big main event involving Savage and Piper versus Orndorff and another member of the Bobby Heenan Family later tonight with a world title match at stake. Gordon turned attention to the other big match NWA champ Paul Orndorff was involved in last week when he traveled to Memphis to face southern heavyweight champion Austin Idol, also mentioning the heinous post match attack the champion perpetrated on Randy Savage's brother, Lanny Poffo on that same show. Randy Savage and Roddy Piper came out to comment. Savage said Orndorff was a marked man before, but it's personal now. He said trying to humiliate him by attacking his brother in Memphis is going to backfire like Orndorff can't even imagine. Piper said he noticed "Boobsy The Weasal" is playing coy not telling anyone which member of the Heenan Family is teaming up with Paul tonight, but it doesn't matter because he's beaten both Race and Rude before and he'll do it again tonight and earn a world title shot. That got Savage hot and Randy said he will be the one who pins Orndorff, Rude, or Race and get HIS world title back. NWA Junior Heavyweight champion Dynamite Kid (w/Cornette) beat Mike Jackson.Kid really beat up Jackson here, with Mike getting in just token offense. Kid finally decided to pin his opponent after a hooking clothesline. After the match Gordon spoke with Kid and Cornette. Jim started in with his manic routine, but Kid cut him off. Dynamite said he's the junior heavyweight champion and should be in high profile matches elevating the title even standing with the heavyweight belt, but instead he's opening the show against a nobody or doing Cornette's bidding at ringside for the Midnight Express. Cornette tried to talk, but Kid cut him off again. He said things had better change soon or he will take drastic measures to make them change. The Samoan Savages (w/Humperdink) won by disqualification over Sgt Slaughter and Don Kernodle.A nice back and forth match, hard fought on both sides. After about ten minutes it went to the floor. Afa Jr tried to hit Sarge with a chair, but Slaughter kicked him and took control of the weapon. He hit Afa Jr instead and the referee chose to disqualify the fan favorite duo. Jim Ross welcomed manager Precious Paul Ellering to the interview area. Paul said people seem to have forgotten a little tournament that was held some time back, pitting the greatest tag team in the NWA against each other to determine the best. The finals had the Road Warriors against Steve Williams and Terry Gordy. He asked Jim how that ended and Ross admitted that the Road Warriors were victorious. Paul said exactly and now Gordy and Williams have the audacity to walk around with the world tag team titles the Warriors never rightfully lost. He said that all changes soon because Hawk and Animal are on their way back from Japan and they are bringing hell with them. Hugh Morrus (w/Kevin Sullivan) pinned Ox Baker after interference.Ox's win streak has come to an end thanks to the evil Gamemaster. In the end Sullivan got on the apron as Hugh had the referee distracted. He hit Ox with the dreaded golden spike and Ox went down hard. Morrus used NO LAUGHING MATTER to secure the pin. Bobby Heenan and Paul Orndorff talked with JR and Gordon. Heenan said Savage and Piper are falling right into their trap, just as he knew they would. He said they are both overly emotional and that causes them to make stupid mistakes. Mistakes just like Jerry Brisco made when he got in Harley Race's business last week. Heenan said Race is about to take care of Brisco next just like Paul and his partner are going to take care of Piper and Savage. Ross assumed that means Rick Rude is teaming up with Paul tonight. Mr Wonderful said Ross shouldn't make assumptions, because you know what they say: when you makes assumptions you make an ass out of you and umption. Ross asked what that even means, to which Paul replied "exactly" and told JR it doesn't matter if it's that big fish in the little pond Austin Idol, punk Piper, or the beaten ex-champ Savage, nobody can stop the world title reign of Mr Wonderful. Paul told Heenan they were leaving and the two exited the area. Jerry Brisco won by countout over Harley Race.Fantastic match, with Brisco working the leg and Harley just beating him down every chance he could. Race could not get the pin no matter what he did. Finally Brisco moved out of the way as Harley charged the corner and Race went up and over the top rope to the arena floor. The frustrated Race picked himself up off the floor, waved it off, and walked to the back, much to the dismay of the waiting Brisco. Main event time, as Roddy Piper and Randy Savage were introduced first. Bobby Heenan came out and took the mic to introduce the world champion Mr Wonderful Paul Orndorff and the newest member of the Bobby Heenan Family, King Kong Bundy.World champ Paul Orndorff and King Kong Bundy won by disqualification over Randy Savage and Roddy Piper.The story here was mostly Randy squaring off with Orndorff and Piper going toe to toe with Bundy. Nobody really got the upper hand as they went on for twelve or so minutes. Finally Piper got frustrated that he could not down Bundy no matter what and hit him with the ring bell on the arena floor, causing the disqualification. Heenan hastily gathered his men and rushed to the back as Savage was beyond mad and yelled at Piper. Piper was frustrated with himself at first and attempted to apologize until Savage shoved him in the chest. Then Piper fired up and went off on Savage in a verbal assault. The two went nose to nose until the referee and members of security stepped in to separate them as the show went off the air.

NWA Pro Wrestlingthe Omni, Atlanta, GA Mike Rotunda beat Cuban Assassin with the AIRPLANE SPIN. The Cuban wasn't on top of his game here. Mike picked him apart and got the win inside of four minutes.
King Kong Bundy pinned Cowboy Scott Casey. Casey gave it his all, but Bundy could not be denied and got the pin with the AVALANCHE in about seven minutes.
Hugh Morrus hates me and beat Ox Baker again. This card is intent on ruining my Ox Baker push, as he used NO LAUGHING MATTER to pin Ox again. It took about eight minutes and was a good match, but Hugh please stop ruining my plans.
Sgt Slaughter beat Sefa Fatu. A tremendous match. Fatu looked strong as he used a urinage on the apron and had Sarge in serious trouble. Slaughter came back and got the win with the dreaded COBRA CLUTCH.
Wahoo McDaniel won by disqualification over One Man Gang. What a war. Gang and Wahoo did battle for over ten minutes. It went to the floor, as it's want to do, and Gang lost when he used brought down a steel folding chair on the head of the chief. Gang was going in for the kill when Ox Baker came out and chased him away.
Midnight Express (w/goofy Jimmy C) won by countout over The Fantastics. The Fantastics, or Bobby in particular, were not too fantastics on this night. The Express attacked at the bell and did not let up. The Fantastics had a few brief moments but it was over in about five minutes when Eaton took out Fulton on the floor with a swinging neckbreaker and Fulton could not return to the ring.
Macho Man Randy Savage beat Ravishing Rick Rude. This one got personal when Rude beat Randy's brother in Memphis. The early minutes were all Rude, who nearly got the pin at the four minute mark. Randy fought back and got the pin in about twelve minutes with the FLYING ELBOW.

World Championship Wrestlingw/Jim Ross and Gordon Solie JR and Gordon opened the show and announced the main event of Thunderbolt Patterson and Jerry Brisco versus Harley Race and Rick Rude. Then they were joined by Jim Cornette and the Midnight Express. Gordon asked about Dynamite Kid expressing his frustrations last week. JC said it was a momentary hiccup and everything is fine in camp Cornette. He said big matches are coming for Kid and The Express are destined for the tag team titles. JR asked about his thoughts on the impending return of the Road Warriors. Corny said they can come and if they do the Midnight Express will kick them all the way back to Japan. Paul Ellering appeared and said that sounds like a challenge. Cornette told him that if The Road Warriors were here tonight it would be an appearance they'd regret for the rest of their careers. Ellering laughed like a maniac and Hawk and Animal hit the ring. Corny tried to backpedal, but Bill Watts entered the scene and said as far as he's concerned they just made and oral contract and his men had better get in the ring. The Road Warriors (w/Paul Ellering) beat the Midnight Express (w/Jim C) in a tag team classic.Bobby and Dennis tried their best to back up their manager's big mouth. They went back and forth with the Warriors for about twelve minutes but in the end Animal hit a POWER SLAM on Dennis for the pin. After the match Ellering and THe Road Warriors spoke with JR. Ellering said the Road Warriors are officially here to handle business and win back the tag team titles they never lost. Hawk warned that Bobby and Dennis were first but not last on their path to Williams and Gordy. Animal finished up by adding that they are all going to pay The Road Warriors way. Missing Link (w/Kevin Sullivan) defeated Sam Houston.Sam fought the good fight, but Link head butted him into oblivion and got the pin as Sullivan barked orders from ringside. After the match Gordon talked with Sullivan and his Dungeon Of Doom: Missing Link, One Man Gang, and Hugh Morrus. Sullivan had warnings for Ox Baker, Wahoo McDaniel, and everyone else who may try to stop the Dungeon. Gordon asked about the soon to return Big Van Vader. Sullivan said he has a special surprise waiting for Vader. Ranger Ross pinned Rip Rogers after the COMBAT KICK.Pretty good match. Rip nearly got the pin, but in the end Ross pulled it out. Bobby Heenan and King Kong Bundy joined JR and Gordon. Bobby was cackling with delight about how his plan worked to perfection last week and Savage and Piper are a couple of morons. After talking about his own brilliance, the unstoppable title reign of Paul Orndorff, and the "condominium with legs" that is King Kong Bundy, he led his man to the ring. King Kong Bundy beat Rocky Kernodle after the ATLANTIC CITY AVALANCHE. Rocky hung in there for a few minutes, but in the end Bundy got the five count pin and the victory.After the bell Rowdy Roddy Piper ran out and blasted Bundy over the head with the US title belt. Bobby led his man away from the ring while Piper grabbed the mic. Piper said "Shamu" and him have business to finish later but right now it's time for Piper's Pit and to clear the air with Macho Man Randy Savage. Savage appeared and Piper told him he knows he is still upset, but Piper WAS sorry last week. Was. Until Randy put his hands on him, then he wasn't sorry any more. Randy said he doesn't care how Roddy feels, he cost Randy Savage a rematch for the world title. Randy said Roddy doesn't care because he has a title, but maybe he won't have it much longer. Roddy dropped the US belt between them and told Randy he could come for it any time he wants, but he better be man enough to take it. The two went nose to nose as the show went to commercial.Harley Race and Rick Rude (w/Bobby Heenan) beat Thunderbolt Patterson and Jerry Brisco.Tremendous main event. In the end Race pinned Brisco after a hard back suplex, but it easily could have gone either way. After the bell T-bolt sent the fans home happy with head butts to Race and Rude to clear the ring.

NWA Pro WrestlingTulsa, OK Mike Rotunda pinned The Spoiler.This was like a main event worthy opener. After about ten minutes Spoiler locked in his BIONIC CLAW. Mike fought out and ended up turning the tables and getting the pin after the AIRPLANE SPIN. After the match Spoiler attacked Rotunda, but Sgt Slaughter and Don Kernodle came out to make the save. Sarge and Don stayed in the ring for the next match. The Samoan Savages (w/Oliver Humperdink) won by disqualification over Don Kernodle and Sgt Slaughter....again.Really great tag team match. The Samoans worked over Don early, wearing him down with nerve holds and hard slams. Don fought back and tagged Sarge, who came in fired up. The action raged on for several minutes until it ended up on the floor again. This time Don got his team disqualified by hitting Samu with the ring bell hammer. Sefa Fatu ran out to attack Sarge and Don, then Rotunda came out to even the sides. The two factions brawled to the back. Hugh Morrus pinned Ox Baker and pretty much ruined the Ox Baker experiment. Yeah, Hugh just has his number. It looks like Sullivan will be able to brag about running his former charge out of the NWA soon. They had a good match, but The Laughing Man just has Ox's number and got the pin with his version of the moonsault.
The Road Warriors (w/Paul Ellering) beat Big Bully Busick and Frank Dalton. Bully started strong, but after a couple of minutes it was all over as Hawk and Animal took control and got the win after the DOOMSDAY DEVICE.
Rowdy Roddy Piper won by disqualification over King Kong Bundy (w/Bobby Heenan). Bundy had Piper in real trouble after about five minutes, but Piper fought back. After some more fighting Roddy locked in the SLEEPER. Heenan ran in and attacked Roddy from behind to break the hold, and got a beating for his efforts.

World Championship Wrestlingw/Gordon and JR Gordon and JR were joined straight away by Austin Idol. Idol said he heard Heenan bragging about Ordorff's title reign last week, but fans recall a few weeks ago when Paul went down to Memphis and couldn't stop Idolmania and got himself disqualified. JR concurred and they showed footage of that. GOrdon said Paul has nowhere to run this week because Austin Idol is getting a world title match TONIGHT! The crowd went wild as they went to the ring for the opening match. Wahoo McDaniel beat Maha Singh.Not a hold to be seen here, as they chopped and clubbed away at each other in a brawl until Wahoo got the pin after a TOMAHAWK CHOP. Sgt Slaughter, Don Kernodle, and Mike Rotunda came out for an interview with Gordon. Sarge talked about how Rotunda helped them out against the Samoans in Tulsa and now they've taken the All AMerican out of Syracuse under their wing. Tonight they face the Samoans in a six man tag. Mike began to speak, but Oliver Humperdink came out to run his mouth and make threats against the trio. THis was a setup for his Samoans to attack from behind, but Kernodle saw them coming and gave his partners the heads up. A brawl ensued, with Sarge's team coming out on top. As Sarge fought Sefa Fatu on the outside, Kernodle brawled with Samu in the interview area, and ROtunda threw Afa Jr into the ring to start the match. Slaughter, Kernodle, and Rotuna beat The Samoans in a ONE MOVE MATCH!Mike tossed Afa Jr into the ring and immediately used the AIRPLANE SPIN for the shocking pin. NWA world tag team champions Steve Williams and Terry Gordy were interviewed by JR. Williams said the Road Warriors think they can come in and steamroll everyone, but they forgot that Williams and Gordy don't lay down for anyone. Gordy said the Rock N Roll Express found out that nobody beats them twice, and the Warriors will learn the same thing. JR thanked them for their time and announced the upcoming match with junior heavyweight title match implications. Brad Armstrong pinned Pirata Morgan.Brad came in hot and Morgan could not answer. He survived a RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP, but Brad pinned him after a thunderous knee lift. World champ Paul Orndorff and Bobby Heenan came out to talk. Heenan said Idol is a fool and he's about to find out that nobody messes with the Heenan Family and gets out in one piece. Heenan warned Piper to pay attention, because he's next. Paul said Idol survived on a fluke in Memphis because Paul lost his temper, but with the title on the line he's more focused than ever and everyone will see the most dominant wrestler in the game today. The Fantastics won by disqualification over Midnight Express (w/Jim C) Great match. In the end, Bobby Fulton went for the pin on Dennis but Corny came in with the tennis racquet to bust up the pin as Eaton was coming in to break up the pin hmself. After the match the Express were visibly upset with Cornette and were arguing with him to the back.
Paul Orndorff beat Austin Idol to defend the NWA world title. Idol started strong and was working the leg to try to slap on the Las Vegas Leglock, but Paul would not let him get the hold. They went back and forth for a good ten minutes in a very solid match, but Orndorff kicked it into high gear planted Idol with the PILEDRIVER for the pin.
