The Super Destroyers def. Antonio Inoki & Rikidozan
[/center]
A great opening contest but the fans weren't happy with the result. Inoki and Rikidozan controlled most of the action. Destroyer and Masked Superstar fought on the defensive but slowly got things turned around. The Masked Superstar strung together some offense and the Destroyer locked on the figure four and Inoki resisted as long as he could before tapping out.
Masked Superstar II def. Don Leo Jonathan by C.O.
[/center]
This one showcased two of the biggest men in the sport and they did nothing but slug it out. A great, high-impcat battle that went back and forth over and over. Jonathan was resilient and lived through the excruciating backbreaker of MSII but then was left out on the floor for the countout.
NWA World Jr. Heavyweight Championship
Delirious (ch) def. Brad Armstrong

For a brief moment at the start of the match it looked like the challenger would regain the Jr. heavyweight title. Delirious whethered a fast attack and then took over. Armstrong couldn't hold up against the onslaught and the Panic Attack ended the match.
Fatal-Fourway
Steve Williams def. Frank Gotch, Johnny Valentine and John Pesek
[/center]
Four of the best in JWA went to work in an elimination, tornado style match. The first fall saw each man finding the chance to go at it with the other three. Johnny Valentine dominated John Pesek and three straight Atomic Skullcrushers took care of the Tiger Man.
After that Gotch and Valentine battled it out, with Valentine taking a lot of damage. Then Dr. Death made his move against Valentine. It backfired but Williams kicked out after the Atomic Skullcrusher. Gotch came back to put Valentine down on the mat again. Doc and Gotch squared off while Valentine was on the floor, but it was Valentine coming in to level Gotch and get a nearfall. Gotch capitalized with both men down on the mat to force Valentine to submit to the Toehold.
The power of Dr. Death was too much for Gotch and a series of shoulder tackles ended the match.
NWA World Television Championship
Terry Gordy def. Ed Lewis (ch)
[/center]
Terry Gordy just overpowered the World TV champion. Lewis was able to counter moves and briefly had Gordy on the match but it was Bam Bam who was too much for the champ. The Oriental Spike ended this one and Terry Gordy is the new World TV title holder!
10-man Tag Team Elimination Match
Giant Baba, Ray Stevens, Gorgeous George, Antonino Rocca & Yukon Eric
def.
The Foreign Force
[/center]
The match started with Ivan Koloff getting killed by nearly the entire team on the other side of the ring. Gorgeous George, Yukon Eric and Giant Baba all hit the Russian Bear with their finishers but he kicked out! After Baba and Koloff both went down, Antonino Rocca came off the top rope for another two-count. Rocca eliminated Koloff with the Argentinian Backbreaker as none of the Foreign Force tried to make a save.
It was a long second fall with the Foreign Force on the receiving end of very long stretches of offense. Mr. Saito kicked out after the Neckbreaker Drop by Baba. Ray Stevens crushed the Iron Sheik with the Bombs Away but this time the save was made. The Iron Sheik then got the shoulder up after the Kodiak Krunch by Yukon Eric. Finally Fuji's men was able to get something going and Fritz Von Goering had Baba in the bearhug. The Iron Sheik got a near fall on Rocca. Mr. Saito had the Scorpion Leglock on Stevens. Von Goering put the Backbreaker on the Crippler. Stevens came back on the floor and Gorgeous George got the tag. Von Goering kept the match going after the Neckbreaker Drop and the Argentinian Backbreaker. The Foreign Force finally got an elimination to even the match when the Iron Sheik beat Rocca with the Camel Clutch.
Fatigue is setting in on the Foreign Force. Von Goering came in and worked over Yukon Eric but it was Mr. Fuji's man that was eliminated after a running tackle.
Mr. Saito exploded in fury and Yukon Eric wasn't ready for it. The Oriental leg sweep laid the lumberjack out for the pin.
The teams continued to hammer away as we're down to a six-man elimnination. Mr. Fuji was caught in the ring a very long time. He stayed alive until Gorgeous George beat him with the Grip.
Even more hard-fought action until Mr. Saito wore down Baba with the sleeper and got the submission, leaving Saito & Iron Sheik against Gorgeous George & Ray Stevens.
Now down to a tag match, Mr. Saito missed off the top rope and Stevens made the cover, leaving Iron Sheik by himself.
The Iron Sheik went down after the spinning toe hold and a rolling hiplock by Gorgeous George.
Ray Stevens and Gorgeous George are your sole survivors!

All-Asia Tag Team Titles
The Enforcers def. The Road Warriors, 2-0
[/center]
Hawk and Animal were all business and worked over both Greg Valentine & Larry Zbyszko during the first fall. Animal was in the ring a long time and the fight went to the outside where he was disqualified.
Zbyszko exploded in the second fall against the Animal. The sleeper, abdominal stretch and then the Piledriver put Animal down for a three count and the Enforcers are the new All-Asia tag team champions!!!
Best 2/3 Falls
All-Asia Heavyweight Title
Nick Bockwinkel (ch) def. Buddy Rogers, 2-1
[/center]
A brutal first fall as the Nature Boy out of nowhere hurled Bockwinkel to the outside where a count out nearly occurred. That was the opening that allowed him to lock on the Figure Four. Bockwinkel resisted but finally gave it up.
These continued to go toe to toe and round and round. Bockwinkel got fired up and went to the floor, then he slapped on the figure four and Rogers had to tap out.
The third fall was a long fight on the outside. Back in the ring Bockwinkel put the sleeper on Rogers and that was it.
