Hennig simply got... CRUSHED! π
I think Heenan becomes a factor and helps the Crippler snuff out Wilkes.

Del Wilkes (6) v. Ray Stevens (59) w/ Bobby βThe Brainβ Heenan (59) Wilkes uses forearm to get control early. Standing dropkick connects for a 2 count from Dick Woehrle (R6/P2). Wilkes to the top for a PATRIOT MISSLE. 1, kick out (R10/P3). Another PATRIOT MISSLE . . . 1, 2, 3 (R4/P4).
That was quick!
Round two is up next. As in past year, the second round will be double shots!
Up next....
Big Van Vader (1) v. Harley Race (33)
and
Antonio Inoki (16) v. Ken Shamrock (17)
I really like the idea of Inoki getting to test himself against Shamrock considering Inoki's brushes with shoot feds throughout his career.

Go Vader.....I've run Inoki/Shamrock it will be close, but I think the bookers might want Vader vs Inoki.

Personally, I would like to see Race vs. Inoki... BUT, I think we're going to get Vader vs. Shamrock.

Andre and Henry.
Fun matches with Vader and Inoki pulling it out. Nothing like the dreaded snake eyes roll.

Handsome Harley shows that he's always the toughest man in the room... Unfortunate that he couldn't convert that effort into a win over Vader.
Andre will continue marching towards the final... And the WSM will overpower the Bulldog... Let 'em roll!
