00:00This morning on TBS, the team that will challenge the awesome Steiner brothers for the world tag team titles at Superbrawl, Lex Luger and Sting in tag team action, plus all the way from Japan, just because we like you. Yeah, that's the real reason. The greatest junior heavyweight match you've ever seen in your life. I promise, really, on the Power Out.
00:30From the great Northwoods, weighing in at 275 pounds, Big John!
01:00And here's the winner from Woodsdale, Ohio, 303 pounds, Jeff Soren!
01:19Big John!
01:21Big Josh from the Northwoods.
01:24Stick on Jeff Soren here on the Power Hour.
01:28Jim Ross along with Pauly Danesley. Ladies and gentlemen, thanks very much for being with us here this morning.
01:32You're welcome, not you. You're paid to be here.
01:36Big Josh tomorrow night on the main event here on TBS will be challenging the enforcer, Arn Anderson, for the World Television Championship.
01:48And Big Josh has just put together a sparkling one-loss record since he has been at WCW.
01:54Tomorrow night will be his first championship challenge, and we hope you fans will join us at 5.05 Central, 6.05 Eastern, tomorrow night on the main event.
02:03You know, I always knew that Big Jerk was stupid. I just didn't realize how stupid he truly is.
02:09So I guess I'm supposed to say, well, Paul, how stupid do you think he is?
02:13Oh no, you know how stupid I think he is. I want to tell you the reason why I think he's stupid.
02:18Well, go ahead.
02:20Why would he challenge Arn Anderson for the World TV title? I mean, like you said, the guy has a tremendous winning streak going.
02:26Why would he jeopardize that against the best wrestler on television today, the enforcer, AA Arn Anderson?
02:33I think he's a competitor. I think that he wants to see if he has progressed to the level to be able to defeat a man the caliber of Arn Anderson.
02:43Big Josh is certainly a good-natured individual. He'll have to be very cautious as he's trying to have Jeff Stewart back in the ring, and that will not be the case one would not assume tomorrow night.
02:54Oh yeah, but he will. If Arn Anderson goes outside the ring because of a Big Josh shoulder block or a clothesline, Josh is going to go out there and say, oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Anderson, are you okay?
03:04And Anderson is going to whack him with the left hand.
03:07Jeff Stewart, a stocking competitor, had the advantage of Big Josh for just a moment.
03:20Stewart now with a right hand.
03:23The guy is too trusted. If Jeff Stewart can take advantage of this, can you imagine what AA Arn Anderson is going to do to him tomorrow night on the main event?
03:32Big Josh now working on the arm of Jeff Stewart.
03:36I hope you fans will stay with us here this morning. We've got a great broadcast.
03:40We take a closer look at what's going to be occurring on Super Brawl Sunday, May the 19th.
03:47That's the big pay-per-view exclusive.
03:49We're talking a little bit about our event coming to the Omni in Atlanta.
03:53About about three weeks from tomorrow night.
03:57And Short is really taking it to Big Jerk here. Jerk needs to turn this situation around.
04:04And a little log rolling exhibition.
04:09I still don't know why he does that inside of a wrestling ring.
04:13I don't think Jeff Stewart's figured it out either.
04:19Big Josh, the strong man from the Northwoods, the former lumberjack.
04:25Sending Sword for the ride, double axe handle.
04:28And here it comes, the big foot drop.
04:36He's one happy man.
04:37He and Arn Anderson tomorrow night on TBS on the main event.
04:44Big Jerk being thrown into the ropes by Jeff Stewart.
04:48Ducks underneath the clothesline.
04:50Wham! Right into the face.
04:52Tomorrow night he gets a shot at the World Television Championship.
04:56Right here on TBS against Double A Arn Anderson.
04:59If he wins the title, he heads to Super Brawl 91 next Sunday exclusively on pay-per-view.
05:05Next Sunday? No, it's in 15 days.
05:10I gotta get my calendar straight.
05:12Against Larry Zabisco.
05:15Super Brawl Sunday is Sunday, May the 19th.
05:19As we mentioned, ladies and gentlemen, Big Josh will take on Larry Zabisco on Super Brawl Sunday.
05:30That is Sunday, May the 19th, exclusively on pay-per-view.
05:33And you can see it by calling your local cable company.
05:36We're going to talk more about it in the broadcast.
05:38Big Josh and Larry Zabisco.
05:39That's a great contrast in lifestyles and wrestling styles.
05:42No, I usually stand there and you usually stand here.
05:44You want to switch?
05:45Not really.
05:46We can later on.
05:47How about later on?
05:48Okay, what do you want to talk about?
05:49I thought I was talking about Larry Zabisco and Big Josh at Super Brawl.
05:52Oh, what's your question?
05:53I'll tell you no lies.
05:54I don't think we ought to get carried away.
05:56I won't lie to you.
05:57Have I ever lied to you?
05:58Yes.
05:59When?
06:00Okay, so she wasn't a redhead.
06:01Only when you open your mouth.
06:03And I promise you she wouldn't sue.
06:04Never lie unless your lips are moving.
06:06Oh, I've heard that one before.
06:07Years ago, we all have.
06:08Ladies and gentlemen, Big Josh and Larry Zabisco won about 12 great matches,
06:12four championships to be decided there.
06:14This is going to be a very informative program, isn't it?
06:16I got no time.
06:17I got no time.
06:18Oh, I'm sorry.
06:19I got no time.
06:20I got no time to talk.
06:21You sound like Missy.
06:22Whine a little bit, will you?
06:23Let's go to the break.
06:24Welcome back, everyone, to TBS and the Power Hour.
06:38Jim Ross and Pauly Daniels are back with you.
06:40We're going to be going back to the Tokyo Dome to see the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship of the World as cited.
06:47Jushin Thunder Liger and Akira Nogami, two of your favorites, aren't they?
06:51Oh, yeah.
06:52I'm president of their fan club, the Yokohama chapter.
06:55Yokohama.
06:56I like how you said that.
06:57The Tokyo Dome.
06:58It's like Lance Russell.
06:59It's like working with Lance Russell.
07:00Well, on this particular event, I'll be working with my good friend Tony Shibani.
07:04Let's go to the ring and join this one.
07:06We take a look at our capacity crowd on hand once again, and there's the challenger.
07:23Akira Nogami, about a year ago, challenged Jushin Liger for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship,
07:32which is basically the most recognized Junior Heavyweight Championship in Japan.
07:36And Nogami, in his traditional attire there, lost that contest.
07:42He left the country for one year, training in other styles of martial arts in England, believe it or not.
07:48And this is his first appearance in one year.
07:51We saw him at the press conference yesterday.
07:53Nice-looking guy.
07:54Sure couldn't tell by this attire.
07:56Not at all.
07:57And now we're getting ready to take a look at one of the truest sensations in this sport, Jushin Thunder Liger.
08:07He is the Junior Heavyweight Champion, the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion.
08:12And listen to the response.
08:14He is quite an athlete.
08:16He is certainly one of the most popular figures for the young Japanese wrestling fans.
08:22And he amazes the older fans as well with his high-flying tactics.
08:26I talked with him yesterday with our interpreter, Wally Yamaguchi, of Gong Magazine.
08:34And Wally interpreted the interview that I had with Jushin.
08:40He will take a lot of chances early.
08:42He is going to fly early for the American fans.
08:44He wrestles with that mask on as it is, which is rather unusual as well.
08:49And he got his favorite move at the top rope DDT by watching American videotapes of the Steiners.
08:55And these two men, Jushin Thunder Liger and Akira Nogami.
09:08Nogami with a flair for the dramatic right there.
09:11And like you said, yesterday during the press conference, Thunder Liger had the headdress on,
09:20but Nogami looked like your normal Japanese wrestler.
09:25Nice-looking young guy.
09:26And I think as the match wears on, you'll see that paint leave his face.
09:31He's certainly imposing as he is now.
09:34But this is the attire, which makes this young man even more unique.
09:40But you're going to see some flying moves here.
09:42And I think you're going to see them early because both these guys can hit a high-impact move.
09:46They're going to both take a lot of chances.
09:48And one, it's like one swing in the bat from a power hitter.
09:51He just needs that one pitch to put it out of here.
09:53And that's exactly the way these guys are.
09:56All right, set to go for the junior heavyweight title.
09:58You know, we were talking about, and you mentioned Wally Yamaguchi,
10:01who's been our interpreter over here.
10:03I was asking Wally as Thunder Liger quickly puts Nogami down on the mat.
10:08Well, that's a little bit of intimidation.
10:11He's a champion.
10:13It's my honor we're fighting for.
10:16It's my championship.
10:17Now watch this move here.
10:18Up on top, many fans standing.
10:21You see them.
10:22Oh, a somersault!
10:23Whoa!
10:24A complete 360 in midair.
10:26No one else in wrestling can duplicate that move.
10:29Certainly has the love of the fans here in Tokyo.
10:34Anyway, Jim, Wally was talking about Thunder Liger,
10:39and I asked him where he came up with that outfit.
10:41He was caught with a kick there.
10:45And both men go down, and I think both men may be hurt right here.
10:48Nogami caught Liger as Liger was coming over the top rope with a karate kick.
10:53And already this early in the contest, Tony,
10:57we've got both men now that are going to have to wrestle the rest of the match
11:00with some bumps and bruises here.
11:02They're both going to be hurt.
11:03Nogami, the first man back in.
11:06Thunder Liger is very upset with himself
11:10because he was in command of this match.
11:13Here's the referee counting 17.
11:15It's a 20 count here, unlike in WCW where it's a 10 count on the outside.
11:21Nogami, good counter move.
11:24Good block.
11:25We have a two count.
11:28And you take a look at the capacity crowd as we go back to the action.
11:33Thunder Liger now back up on his feet with Nogami.
11:37Picks him up.
11:38Into.
11:39He tried a tombstone power driver, but his ankle gave way on him.
11:42It's his right ankle that's giving him problems.
11:45The champion now, who's known for his mobility,
11:49has got a bad wheel.
11:51And Nogami's going to take advantage of it.
11:53Right on to the foot.
11:57Thunder Liger is also not only a great wrestler in this country,
12:01but he is also a major character in a comic book here at this time.
12:06Certainly is.
12:07Very popular as we said for the youngsters.
12:09Inside cradle there.
12:11He's got problems with that right ankle.
12:13Very unusual for him to go for a pin, a mat pin.
12:16He's more of an aerial artist.
12:20Both men to their feet.
12:21The drop kick.
12:22Nogami got it, but could not get.
12:24Liger off his feet.
12:25That one did though.
12:26That got him in the back of the head as well.
12:28They're really well versed with their feet.
12:30And now Nogami seeing that the championship lies before him.
12:33It's like a chance here.
12:35He's up on top.
12:37Thunder Liger gets up also.
12:39Nogami.
12:40That time Liger one step ahead of him.
12:42Sent him right down face first to the mat.
12:44Liger's so quick.
12:45He saw it coming and stepped out of the way.
12:47He seemed limping.
12:49See how this affects his mobility because as we said,
12:52he creates great offense off the top rope.
12:55Picks him up.
12:56A version of the power bomb that time.
12:58Certainly was a real authoritative power bomb by Jushin Liger.
13:03Liger not able to make the cover here.
13:05He continues his offense.
13:07Picks him up again.
13:08Another power bomb.
13:09He got it all over at that time.
13:11Oh, he kicked out.
13:13And the fans thought he had it.
13:15Remember, Nogami had to leave this country by his own discretion for one year
13:20after losing his last challenge to his rival here.
13:24There's more at stake in this match than just the Junior Heavyweight Championship.
13:30Pick up.
13:32Could be inverted pile driver here.
13:33No.
13:34Nogami got out of it.
13:35Liger comes across with a close line.
13:37That close line caught him right in his jaw.
13:40Nogami's eyes are real blurred from our vantage point.
13:43He's in a lot of trouble now.
13:45He may not recuperate from that close line.
13:48But Nogami up on top.
13:52It may be hooking in like a super flex here.
13:54I think it's going to be his DDT.
13:55It is.
13:56His DDT, Jim.
13:57You were right.
13:58And that's it.
13:59That's the move he got from the Steiners.
14:03So he regains, or retains it as the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship with the all-to-the-top DDT.
14:15Tremendous win.
14:16Front face lock.
14:17He's on the top rope.
14:18Look at the position of Jushin Thunder Liger.
14:21And snaps it down.
14:22Great DDT.
14:23Outstanding victory.
14:24He wants it, and that's what's gonna happen if he gets in my way.
14:33And if my team has this!
14:39If everyone needs to be here tonight, come on out, come on out and I'll show you where you're
14:44in here.
14:45Don't come off now!

17:50reed anywhere in this world the last thing ron simmons will do is find him and let him know that
17:56he's met his match and it's gonna be his last match when i get my hands on it you know what i'm still
18:02you're dwelling on the you know butch reed i'm talking about kevin sullivan one-man gang one-man
18:08gang is twice your size don't you think maybe it's kind of stupid to take him so light
18:12a tree is five million times the size of an act but it will fall on it and that's what's gonna
18:20happen if he gets in my way and if butch reed is in this village tonight come on out ron simmons we'll

18:46sullivan and one-man gang and if they want a part of ron simmons all they've got to do is track me
18:53down i am not hard to find well do it your way well burt reynolds favorite wrestler ron simmons is
18:59certainly having his problems not only with hacksaw butch reed whom he will meet in the
19:03thunder doom cage match on super brawl sunday but also with the one-man gang six foot ten four
19:10hundred some odd pounds and absolutely out of his mind now if simmons were to take on the gang i think
19:15he could beat him if simmons were to take on reed i think he could beat him but he's cornered he's like
19:19a trapped animal ron simmons is in big big trouble and he's up next let's go back to the room
19:25you know paul we talked about the jeopardy that uh ron simmons is in with the one-man gang
19:37and hacksaw butch reed tonight on uh wcw he'll be attending with big fan vader that would make
19:45quite an imposing tag team simmons and vader if they were to take on the one-man gang and hacksaw
19:51butch reed well i think ron simmons has made a very smart decision hiring big fan vader as his
19:57bodyguard i have not heard that that's another one of your uh fabrications he's not his bodyguard
20:05well what is he you think ron a tag team partner tonight ron simmons manhandling tony mella here
20:12well why would ron simmons want to get himself in another tag team situation when the team of doom
20:16fell apart i'm not so sure he's getting in a tag team situation but it's good to have allies when
20:22you when you're outnumbered when there's two or three people at one time coming after you one would
20:27think common sense would dictate that he find a partner he could trust it's a lot more than two
20:32or three it's the one-man gang it's kevin sullivan it's teddy long it's butch reed and they all want
20:38a piece of ron simmons well i don't think simmons is worried about teddy long i don't think he counts
20:44well of course not not with big fan vader backing you up teddy long can't beat up vader
20:50simmons with a leg drop on tony mella coach bobby bowden has done a superb job at florida state
20:59university and big ron simmons was a part of that great success many consider him the first
21:07bona fide blue chipper signed in the bobby bowden era at florida state
21:11i didn't know that he was scheduled for any interview time anymore he already got his chance
21:18to talk you have a problem with everybody else talking don't you have a problem with missy
21:23hyde as a matter of fact who's going to interview rick flair tonight i understand it's going to be you
21:28i understand it's going to be missy hyatt with rick flair tonight no i'm going to interview the
21:32heavyweight champion of the world nature boy rick flair tonight right here on superstation tbs at 605
21:40well i also understand that missy hyatt is preparing some questions uh for the champion tonight so that
21:52could be an interesting situation well i'm a journalist i'm a reporter i am wrestling
21:58premier investigative reporter who says says me oh that's a that's really uh a humble way of
22:05describing yourself and since i'm a color analyst therefore i can make that assessment now missy
22:10hyatt is nothing she's window dressing you can take any sleeves off the street put her in a nice
22:16outfit give her a second grade education and she can do the same job that missy hyatt can do what kind
22:22of probing questions to missy hyatt ask major boy rick flair tonight we'll probably find out tonight
22:28when she's interviewing flair as a matter of fact this whole thing started when she beat you in arm
22:33wrestling back in january on the class of champions our next class of champions will be june the 12th
22:39but on sunday may 26th in atlanta's omni i understand you guys have signed for a rematch in
22:44arm wrestling the only reason why i signed for the rematch in arm wrestling is to prove once and for
22:50all that that is a powerful clothesline that what happened at the class was a fluke i was staring
22:57at her plastic surgery scars and that's all oh please paul that's very distasteful
23:02simmons in the clothesline right off the second turnbuckle
23:05ron simmons and reed in the cage at super bronze
23:09till the count this morning gordon solely takes a look at the united states
23:17heavyweight championship situation on wnn news

23:30certainly not the one-man gang reed and simmons in thunder doom super sunday may 19th at super brawl

26:14there's your announcement again he's the champion but i can't believe he hit the referee like he did this
26:20this is absolutely wild all right what a confrontation luger and and wait a minute there's kolov
26:32back in the dressing room areas our camera's going all the way back and this fight is going on
26:36like in the dressing room there you see many of the wrestlers aren't anderson
26:42up the road some of the young pistols owen hart
26:46trying to break this thing up well some obvious errors here on the part of the u.s heavyweight
26:50champion concerning that chain and the referee and that of course will be under review now then the
26:56very following week on television jim ross was this time interviewing nikita kolov when lex luger
27:02determined it was payback time here's what happened here we go here he says you want it here it is
27:13and they're going at it and neither one is backing up from the other
27:18kolov and luger going at it out of toe in the middle of the ring man this is one war that needs
27:24to be settled last week it was kolov instigating the fight this week it was luger coming down it says
27:30you want the damn belt then you come and get it and what a fight we've got here now
27:35bodies dipping out of the locker room luger and kolov this is a war an international war
27:42bodies are flitting all over the place an editorial comment if i may first of all
27:49certainly no one can be very pleased over the manner in which nikita kolov issued his challenge
27:54secondly certainly his destruction of that twenty thousand dollar belt is reprehensible however he
28:00will pay the price for that he is being fined by world championship wrestling but then we have to step
28:07one step further and that is to the actions by lex luger u.s heavyweight champion a man with great
28:13responsibility when he struck an official with a chain now that action is also reprehensible and cannot be
28:20condoned and he may pay a very very stiff price for this and i don't mean it of mine he may pay a
28:26possible suspension justice will have to prevail no question about that now if you would like to

32:15minute kids 18 and under obtain your parents permission before calling
32:18one 900 909 9900 stylus you know paul i had a long talk with jim heard this week
32:26fans he is the executive vice president of world championship wrestling our boss and uh he had
32:32some very interesting and colorful comments about you and missy's conduct and that's going to be the
32:36subject of uh one of my topics on the ross reports and now on the hotline mr heard's thoughts on you and
32:42missy and i'll tell you this right now if i were you two guys i would act a little bit more professional
32:48he's running out of patience well then when's he gonna fire her you may fire both of you if you
32:53don't uh improve your attitude and bad attitudes is a way of life for the 6 10 420 pound one-man gang
33:03keith hart is a gallant little competitor oh one-man gang he just sent keith hart into orbit
33:09goofy kevin sullivan at ringside goofy but twisted and sadistic and he has control over the one-man gang
33:23one-man gang picking hard up and taking him down very viciously
33:27theodore r peanut headlong as a reservation in a small cage
33:39yeah look at this that's all that's that's sad they just let kevin out of his cage for this match
33:44you know something looks like a blonde danny devito that hasn't had a lot of sleep in the last few
33:50weeks except devito was a comedian and there's nothing funny about kevin sullivan
33:57sullivan is a sadistic person very very dangerous
34:03i love it kevin i like it and the gang was always twisted he doesn't need any egging on and
34:09sullivan is egging him on to even greater heights even greater depths of violence
34:15and i'm looking forward to sunday june the second that's when we'll begin our
34:19new radio program on wsv radio on the leading radio stations in america am 750 wsv
34:27every sunday night beginning june 2nd we'll have the opportunity to talk to top stars from wcw
34:34and you can call free follow like that free you can call free and talk to uh yours truly and uh
34:42my guest on sunday night should be a lot of fun and i'm very happy to be associated with a station
34:47like wsv am 750. you mean i don't need a coupon or anything sunday june 2nd nine o'clock eastern time
34:56and the station goes about 38 states at night so it's going to be a chance to talk to a lot of the
35:01great fans maybe i'll have kevin sullivan and theodore along on some night and the fans can call
35:06and talk to them oh that'd be a real interesting conversation mr sullivan what do you think of uh
35:12elegante sometimes sullivan is very articulate
35:20there's a method to his madness one-man gang continuing to dominate keith hart here so much
35:27conjecture as to just who is the real giant fans know my feeling elegante gets my vote there
35:35vote for what the real giant at wcw and wrong answer you're looking at him the one-man gang
35:43well he certainly has to be considered
35:44610 420 pounds and here it comes 747 a bumpy landing at hartsfield international
36:01and if he ever gets the opportunity why why this because he wants to do this to elegante and he
36:06wishes he got they would show up so he could do this face to face to him another 747 on a
36:14out man that already beaten keith hart absolutely no reason at all for this
36:21number three and here comes ellie got take the man that will i think sadly defeat sid vicious on may 19th
36:31if vicious has the guts to show up and it's sullivan getting the one-man gang under control
36:37elegante cannot stand to see someone being taken advantage of
36:44world championship wrestling rolling thunder

37:51the world tag team championship between the steiner brothers and lex luger and sting we'll see lex and
37:56sting in just a few moments but first paul i want the fans to hear some comments made by both teams
38:01see what i can't wait to see is these four guys get in the ring and beat the heck out of each other
38:06because i've never liked the steiner brothers i've never liked sting and luger and sooner or later
38:10they're gonna have to collide they do at super brawl for the world tag team title sting and lex why you
38:18want to wrestle us i don't know for one thing me and my brother show no emotion for no one when we get
38:23in the ring they pay us to fight and that's what we do i guess gonna be like two gun fighters you know
38:28someone's gonna die but you just gotta find out who's faster sting and lex we travel together we train
38:35together but there's nobody me and my brother won't wrestle except each other super brawl
38:40it's we're taking care of business we're always before taking your head off super brawl premier
38:46match-up steiners the stinger myself friendship aside it'll be wide open i know what it's like to
38:52wrestle against somebody you just can't stand well i kind of like the steiners but i'm looking forward
38:57to getting in the ring with those guys both teams seem to be very very focused on their upcoming
39:04championship challenge friend or foe the steiner brothers have been saying it for a month they'll
39:08defend the titles against friends or foes here's the thing sting and luger are their friends but the
39:14steiner brothers have fought their friends before and they mopped the floor with them like at the
39:18iron man competition i think at super brawl this match is going to really turn into one bad scene ladies
39:25and jill must go to the ring and see sting and lex luger together in a tag team event
39:37team competition between the two and three and it's back from the target of our east and back is
39:47vancenato world championship wrestling i certainly want you to be with us not only for all the great
39:53wrestling action but we've got a very special video feature that has been prepared
40:00regarding seeing a less rigorous challenge to the steiners and the world tag team championship
40:06I've had the privilege of previewing that video
40:09And it's one of the best wrestling video features
40:11I've ever seen
40:13And if you're a collector of that type of thing
40:15You certainly have your VCR ready tonight
40:175.05 Central
40:206.05 Eastern
40:21Tonight right here on TBS
40:23For World Championship Wrestling
40:25Well it's that time again
40:27Yeah
40:31Time for your prediction
40:32You do it every time before the pay-per-view
40:36Right before
40:37And here we are only 15 days before
40:39Don't do it on the Ross Report
40:41Do it right now
40:42Who's going to win the match
40:44Lex Luger and Sting or the Steiner Brothers
40:46That'll be on the hotline in two weeks
40:48You can't tell me
40:50I haven't made my mind up
40:51I'm still thinking about it
40:54Oh come on
40:55Magnum Forrest and the Stinger
40:57And Magnum Forrest
40:58Catching Sting somewhat relaxed there
41:01The thing about it fans
41:03Is that both these teams are very competitive
41:05They're both professional athletes
41:07All four I should say
41:09Hi my name is Magnum Forrest
41:12And the thing about it is that when the bells sound
41:14They're going to forget about traveling together
41:17They're going to forget about training together
41:19They're going to forget about the war games
41:21And other situations they have been in together
41:23They're going to think about
41:25For the Steiner's
41:26Showing the world without a shadow of a doubt
41:29That they are the best tag team in the world today
41:31And for Sting and Luger
41:32Is to win the richest tag team prize in the sport
41:35So I don't think friendships will have anything to do with it
41:38On Superbrawl Sunday
41:40And Luger looks tremendous
41:42He's put on at least 15 or 20 pounds of muscle
41:45In the past six weeks
41:46Whoa!
41:47Oh Sting up and over the top
41:49What a great move on both members of Magnum Forrest
41:53Explosive offensive move
41:56By the Stinger
41:58And a one and a two
42:03Who's this guy?
42:04Lawrence Welch?
42:05Maybe
42:06What a maestro
42:07He's orchestrating a lot of offense here
42:10Up and over
42:14Magnum Forrest being dominated here
42:18By Sting and Lex Luger
42:21And Luger's going to need that added weight
42:24Luger's going to need that added power
42:26When he steps into the ring
42:27With the master of the Steiner line
42:29Rick Steiner
42:30Or the inventor of the Frankensteiner
42:33Scott Steiner
42:34Steiner line
42:35Steiner
42:35You know
42:36Can't they name their maneuvers anything else
42:38Besides Steiner this
42:39Steiner that
42:39Something Steiner
42:41Other Steiner
42:41Stupid Steiner
42:43Come on
42:43They're not very creative
42:45Side headlock by
42:49The total package
42:50And United States heavyweight champion
42:52Lex Luger
42:52Fans don't forget
42:54Tomorrow in the main event
42:55Big Josh goes for his first major championship
42:57As he has signed a contract
43:00To wrestle
43:00Big Josh
43:01That's for the world television championship
43:03Tomorrow in the main event
43:04And I think
43:07Big Jerk's in big
43:08Big trouble against
43:09Double AR and Anderson
43:10Game to the corner
43:13Great agility by the Stinger
43:14Great right hand
43:17High impact match
43:20That's what we're looking for
43:21At Super Brawl
43:23Between the two
43:24And here it comes
43:25And he knocked the other one
43:26Off the apron
43:27At the same time
43:28Scorpion
43:29At Stinger's flash
43:31I thought he might go
43:32For the Scorpion
43:33But he's going to
43:34Leave it up to Luger
43:35To clean the bases here
43:37With a human torture rack
43:39And not even the Steiners
43:41Can withstand this move
43:42The winners of the match
43:43Of the world vacation
43:44Luger and Sting
