18:38world heavyweight championship that next on tbs thanks for staying with us everyone jim ross and
18:56paulie dangerously back with you here on tbs in this segment we're going to focus on the escalating
19:01involvement between the undisputed wcw world's heavyweight champion the total package lex luger
19:07and two of his more prominent challengers we're talking about barry windham and of course
19:13ron simmons and paul this whole situation got started when we were taping our broadcast
19:18in saint joseph missouri yeah and you see ron simmons started it all because simmons had already
19:22signed the contract to face the total package lex luger he had his title shot set and ready but
19:27that wasn't good enough for the all-american oh no he had to have the total package lex luger right then
19:32and there well luger obliged he doesn't duck any challengers but he didn't come out to the ring
19:36alone he had his whole entourage with him what we're going to show you are the closing moments of
19:42both these altercations first we'll show you what happened when luger and his entourage attacked ron
19:47simmons and then we'll show you exactly what they did later in that broadcast against barry windham
19:54and i think you're going to get your opportunity right now
19:58the bodyguard from behind and the the advisor harley ray stomping away
20:14the arrogant world's heavyweight champion certainly enjoys triple teaming oh yeah they're
20:21going to do them in they're going to finish off the challenges now what are you talking about
20:28i know what's going on oh you want to talk about it and lightning strikes twice again the bodyguard
20:37hughes the advisor race under the guidance of the world champion lex luger and again luger relishing in
20:46the opportunity to have people help him beat up his challengers here comes simmons with a chair
20:56and he does mean business
21:06now that's how it all got started between the undisputed wcw world's heavyweight champion lex luger
21:12ron simmons and barry windham but last saturday one week ago on wcw luger and his entourage
21:20struck again this time against barry windham you're going to see the genius of harley race we
21:25already know about that you're going to see the awesome power of mr used and we know about that
21:30what i think everybody out there really needs to pay attention to right here is the thirst for blood
21:35in lex luger's eyes i've never seen lex luger so determined to eliminate somebody before just look
21:43at how hungry lex luger is to eliminate barry windham and the last piece of videotape we showed
21:49you the bond that has been created between barry windham and ron simmons and this is going to cost
21:56barry windham we'll go now back one week to last saturday's wcw broadcast here's what happened when
22:03luger and the entourage attacked barry windham the following contest on world championship wrestling
22:10it is set for one fall introducing first from sweetwater texas weighing 278 pounds
22:20the tough veteran snake watson to challenge the man that's currently ranked number three in the
22:36entire world barry windham and these fans want barry windham to have his opportunity
22:42against the undisputed wcw world's heavyweight champion the total package lex luger we know that
22:49barry windham that's the crowd they're so solidly behind this young man now paul they're solidly
22:56behind barry windham because they know he's a marked man because he stuck his nose in the business of
23:01the total package lex luger and let me tell you something ron simmons marked man barry windham
23:07marked man and if you keep making those comments on the wrestling hotline that you do about the total
23:13package lex luger you might be a marked man yourself
23:24there's a suplex by barry windham a second generation athlete six feet six 270 pounds
23:33watson coming back breaks the eyes and a knee left by snake watson we said he was a tough veteran
23:40windham with the right hand of his own barry windham and ron simmons have formed a bond
23:48they have shaken hands they have given each other their word that they can they can trust the other
23:53and this would be a phenomenal tag team combination to see barry windham and ron simmons together
24:00perhaps against mr luger and mr hughes well their psychology is apparent their strength in numbers
24:07stay together stay together but lex luger knows divide and conquer luger not only wants simmons out
24:14of the way but he has sworn to eliminate barry windham because windham here we go
24:20here's in trouble here comes luger race and hughes hearty race
24:26luger from behind on window oh my god he kicked him right in the face
24:34luger the awesome champion attacking windham from behind
24:36And now he's paying the price for that friendship, wait a minute, they're moving these men, exposing the concrete floor, right here, they're going to do them in, they're going to do them in right here.
24:59Wendham, oh my god, face first into the concrete floor, Wendham's face being ravaged on the concrete floor by Les Blumer, that's nothing but concrete, and they're rubbing his face, doesn't get away from him.
25:17Oh man, I got Simmons too!
25:19Ron Simmons running right through Mr. Hughes, but Hughes and Simmons sprawling, Grace and Hughes trying to restrain Simmons, Wendham is hurt, it is chaotic here at ringside, they're beating up Simmons now.
25:37Luger and his henchmen, dominating, Ron Simmons, they've hurt Barry Wendham, men are coming out of locker room, bodies are flying everywhere, Wendham is hurt, Simmons over his partner, what a situation, look at the bodies, it looks like a wreck on I-85, Luger, Grace and Hughes have struck with violence.
26:01All right, Paul, let's put this into perspective for all of our fans, we know that in just a little more than one month, exclusively on pay-per-view at Halloween Havoc, it will be two out of three falls when Ron Simmons challenges Lex Luger for the WCW World's Heavyweight Championship.
26:17We know that Barry Wendham has a rematch signed with Lex Luger as well, and we also know that now Luger and Simmons will be forming a tag team.
26:29I think this whole situation points toward an explosion. I wonder if Ron Simmons will even make it to October 27th.
26:36Not only Ron Simmons, but how about Barry Wendham? You see, gentlemen, your psychology's apparent strength in numbers, but Luger knows divide and conquer.
26:46And not only Lex Luger, but his entire entourage knows that the way to defeat the both of you is to divide and conquer.
26:54Van's another top star. The most popular athlete in WCW is the Stinger. He's got a lot of problems.
26:59Missy Hyatt will examine that when we come back.
27:01I'm Missy Hyatt, and this is Missy Does the Mail.
27:17This week, I would like to focus on Sting's problems.
27:20As you have seen, he has had three surprise boxes.
27:24First, there was Abdullah the Butcher, then there was Cactus Jack, and then there was a woman.
27:29Now, let's take a look at the surprises and the situation.
27:35Sting here at ringside.
27:36Hey, wait a minute. It's Abdullah the Butcher.
27:39Abdullah the Butcher, the 460-pounder, the bad man from the Sudan, running Sting face-first into the steel.
27:47There you see that box, and Sting sees it.
27:57You've got to wonder what's going through his mind, and now the match is virtually stopped because most men are preoccupied by this gift box.
28:04And the match resumes by an elbow.
28:09Sting takes him down. He's got him wrapped up, and he's going to pit him.
28:13Ladies and gentlemen, here's your winner, Sting!
28:16Oh, it is! Cactus Jack!
28:18Cactus Jack just ran through Theodore Long!
28:22He's attacking Sting!
28:23First, it was Abdullah, then it was Cactus Jack.
28:26What could be in this box?
28:29He's checking it out.
28:31What is it? What is it?
28:34It's a monster!
28:40Oh, my. It's not a monster.
28:42Oh, she looks like a real killer to me, man!
28:45Yeah!
28:45A little bit bizarre here.
28:53Hey, wait a minute!
28:57It is obvious that Cactus Jack is one of the men being paid a lot of money to run Sting out of World Championship Wrestling.
29:05On a recent broadcast, Cactus Jack had a few interesting comments to make about the situation.
29:11Let's hear those comments now.
29:13Sting, why don't you put down your crayons, take your eyes off the mirror, and make a good look at the picture of your miserable life.
29:24Is it getting any clearer?
29:26Can't you see, Sting? Can't you see?
29:29You can't fight what you don't understand.
29:32And when it comes to Cactus Jack, you haven't got a clue.
29:36You haven't got a clue!
29:38But I got some clues on you, buddy.
29:40First, it was Abdullah butchering you.
29:44Second, it was Cactus Jack making life as you once knew it a memory.
29:50And now we got surprise after surprise for your miserable little life.
29:55But you want to go on national TV?
29:57You want to go on national TV and lie to your little stingers?
30:00Tell them you're not afraid.
30:02Tell them you're a big man and that you're not hard to find.
30:06Sting, my address is even easier.
30:08I'll be in your head.
30:11Cactus Jack is just one of the people hired to eliminate Sting.
30:16But the big question is, who is behind it all?
30:19Being wrestling's premier number one journalist, I'm working on the situation.
30:24And maybe tomorrow night on the hotline, I'll have an answer for you.
30:28But now, let's hear some interesting updates on the Bruce Cruise.
30:31Spend your dream vacation with Lex Luger, Sting, and many other great WCW wrestlers on the Bruce Cruise.
30:40Sail away on your passage to exotic beaches on luxurious MS New Amsterdam for a trip you'll never forget.
30:46Visit the exotic ports of Key West, Florida, Ocho Rios, Jamaica, Grand Cayman, and the beautiful beaches of Cozumel, Mexico.
30:52There will be special autograph sessions and beach parties with your favorite WCW wrestlers.
30:58Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime dream vacation on the Bruce Cruise.
31:02Welcome back, everyone, to TBS and the Power Hour.
31:16Don't forget a very special broadcast tonight.
31:18We'll tell you more about it a little bit later in this hour on World Championship Wrestling Tonight.
31:23An outstanding broadcast beginning at 6.05 Eastern Time.
31:26Now, in just a few moments, we'll be returning to the ring to see a special challenge match between the Enforcers,
31:32the current World Tag Team Champions, and the new United States Tag Team Champions, the Patriots.
31:37But, Paul, last week on WCW, the Patriots scored a major upset.
31:41They won the U.S. Tag Titles against the Freebirds.
31:44This has to be the luckiest tag team in the history of World Championship Wrestling.
31:48They were beaten down by Terrence Taylor and Richard Morton, and they snuck away with a victory.
31:52Then they get in the ring with the fabulous Freebirds, the United States Tag Team Champions,
31:56and they had the Freebirds, had the Patriots going, and out of nowhere, boom!
32:01One, two, three, and the Patriots become the U.S. Tag Team Champions.
32:04It certainly was an upset when the Patriots defeated the Freebirds.
32:07We're going to go back in time one week to World Championship Wrestling
32:10and show you how they became the new U.S. Tag Champs.
32:12Garvin now controlling the offense, thus controlling the tempo in this one with that reverse chin lock.
32:33Chip back up to his feet, comes with the elbows, frees himself, and Garvin missed that clothesline.
32:45But Chip caught with a knee to the abdomen and another tag.
32:49Here comes the veteran Michael Hayes, and Hayes maintains control with a reverse chin lock.
32:54And it's painfully obvious to the fabulous Freebirds that Chip has a tremendous, tremendous cardiovascular conditioning,
33:03and they're wearing him down.
33:05They're sapping him of his strength.
33:06And they like to taunt their opponents, especially the youngsters that grew up idolizing the fabulous Freebirds,
33:19that grew up idolizing the legacy, the legend of Michael P.S. Hayes and the Freebirds.
33:25And now you see they're wearing Chip down mentally and physically.
33:30Kick right to the face by Jimmy Jim Garvin.
33:33He has done it again.
33:34Garvin three times that foot right to the face.
33:38And Firebreaker Chip now has got to decide just how badly he wants to be one half of the United States Tag Team Champions.
33:45There's a lateral press.
33:46He got two out of it.
33:51Looks to me like things are getting a little too hot for the Firebreaker right now.
33:57Garvin climbing on top.
33:58I got him now.
33:59Garvin turning and telling the fans.
34:01I got him now.
34:02He's got him, but look who's there.
34:04It's Firebreaker Chip back up to his feet.
34:06Garvin was talking.
34:08And now he slammed right off the top rope.
34:14Todd Champion desperately encouraging his partner to make the tag.
34:19And there is the tag.
34:22Chip in there, but the referee is not going to allow it this time.
34:25It was a legal tie, but the ref didn't see it.
34:29He's not going to allow it.
34:31The Freebirds now, the double team.
34:34Double spine buster.
34:38Chip kicking Garvin in the back of the head.
34:40Nails Michael Hayes.
34:41Or, excuse me, that is Todd Champion, I should say.
34:45Champion of Hayes now in a brawl.
34:47We got a DDT coming up.
34:50Garvin with a DDT.
34:52Champion with the out-ball.
34:54Chip on top.
34:55He's got him wrapped up.
34:56Hey, ref.
34:57There he is.
34:58One, two, three.
34:59They've got a new champion.
35:01And then he goes to their name, the winner.
35:03And new United States Tag Team Champion, the Patriots.
35:10What an upset.
35:11Here on WCW, those two young kids are the new United States Tag Team Champions.
35:17Ladies and gentlemen, the following tag team event, it is set for one call.
35:24Introducing first, from the WCW Special Forces Firebreaker Shift, Todd Champion, the Patriots.
35:38Hope you fans have called the wrestling hotline today.
35:40I've got some real interesting news and some things going on in the world of professional wrestling
35:44that we cannot talk about on TV.
35:47I'll tell you that.
35:48That's on the wrestling hotline until noon today.
35:52Here come the New World, or it's on midnight tonight, I should say.
35:56Total combined weight, 492 pounds.
36:00Here come the New World Tag Team Champions.
36:03And as we mentioned, tomorrow on the main event, Arn Anderson will go one-on-one with Ron Simmons.
36:10That's tomorrow, 6-0-5 here on TVS.
36:18Speaking of TVS, we hope you'll stay tuned today.
36:21Outstanding Southeast Conference football game today.
36:25Tennessee hosts UCLA Bruins.
36:29That'll be this afternoon here on TVS.
36:31You know, Paul, one of the great things about Southeast Conference football on TVS is that
36:35we don't have to listen to Skip Carey and Don Sutton.
36:39We've got, you know, Bob Neal does a great job doing football, and I really enjoy the Southeast
36:44Conference football broadcast here on TVS.
36:48Don't have to listen to who?
36:50The fat guy.
36:51Skip Carey and the curly-haired fella.
36:53Harry Carey's done in the Hall of Famer wannabe.
36:58Skip Carey and Don Sutton.
37:00I don't talk about cheap labor.
37:03I only comment on high price talent like the Patriots and the enforcers.
37:11Dollar-n-elbow tie-up.
37:14The self-proclaimed living legend from Pittsburgh.
37:19Tremendous athlete.
37:20This is a non-title event.
37:21The Freebirds certainly are not very pleased in how their career has turned the last three
37:36or four weeks, and they will be, with battery, taking on the York Foundation later today in
37:42a big six-man tag team event.
37:44Arm drag takeover by Chip, and Zbysko up very quickly, but he will not intimidate this young
37:54man.
37:56Nobody can psych him out.
37:59The psychology of the enforcers, and that's what got him by the Patriots in the tag team
38:04tournament.
38:05Mind over matter.
38:06Watch that Dodgers-Braves game last night, Paul, on TBS.
38:16With the sound off, yeah.
38:18Well, we are so happy and proud of the effort and the desire exhibited game in and game out
38:25by the Atlanta Braves.
38:27We're happy to be a part of the TBS family with the Braves.
38:30And they are really in the hunt in the National League Western Division.
38:38A lot of teams are going to be in the hunt for the World Tag Title, including the Patriots,
38:42including the Freebirds, including Bill Kazmaier and Rick Steiner.
38:46So Anderson and Zbysko must be prepared, and I'm sure they will be, for some tremendous challenges
38:52in the weeks and months to come.
38:54Good shoulder block.
38:56And a knee to the abdomen, and it might behoove young Chip there to tag in his partner.
39:06Larry taking an aerial attack.
39:09Chip landed on his feet just about there, Paul.
39:12And Chip now slams Zbysko in company, a pointer on Anderson, but Chip's song coming.
39:25And good teamwork by Zbysko and Anderson.
39:28We also want to remind you fans that tonight, we're going to show you a tremendous matchup
39:33between the Z-Man and the unpredictable Cactus Jack.
39:40Z-Man and Cactus also tonight as a part of our two-hour broadcast here on TBS.
39:52Allow the foot right to the face.
39:58Anderson, I've made the gun on record.
40:03I think he's the finest tag team wrestler I've ever seen, in my career anyway.
40:10And notice how he hooks the ankle, Chip can't get away.
40:13In comes the legend Larry Zbysko, he stomps Chip down.
40:17He can't get over, makes the tag, the top champion.
40:20They're working on the weakened opponent.
40:23It's like a shark that smells blood.
40:30Zbysko scoops up by Chip, who's been this match virtually the entire time.
40:34Tag made.
40:36Hope your fans will plan on being with us on AM 750 WSB tomorrow night, 9 o'clock.
40:43I'll take your calls for an hour.
40:52Notice they keep them right by their own corner.
40:54They get the tag.
40:59A very smart tag from Anderson to Zbysko.
41:06One thing this team has going for it is its great strategy.
41:10They're like ring generals in there.
41:14Lateral press.
41:15They don't make a lot of mistakes.
41:17They're mentally and physically prepared for any situation that might arise.
41:21We saw that last Sunday on the main event when they took on the hard, the hard line.
41:32Chip needs to make the tag.
41:34He's awful close.
41:37There he does.
41:37He makes the tag.
41:39Here comes Todd Champion.
41:40Champion.
41:42Six feet, five inches tall, hammering away with those right hands.
41:47Sends Anderson for the ride.
41:50Big elbow.
41:51One, two, and Zbysko stops the count.
41:55And now we have all four men inside the ring.
41:59Referee putting Chip out.
42:01Anderson and Zbysko now double teaming.
42:04They throw him over the top.
42:06The referee saw it.
42:07The enforcers will be disqualified.
42:11And now they double team firebreaker Chip.
42:15This was a non-tidal event anyway.
42:18They're just trying to make a point here.
42:21And it looks to me like they're making it.
42:24Ladies and gentlemen, the enforcers have been disqualified.
42:30The winners of the match, the Patriots.
42:33As I said, I'm sure we'll be seeing more battles between those two outstanding teams.
42:40And when we talk about outstanding, tonight's broadcast here on TBS World Championship Wrestling,
42:455.05 Central Time, 6.05 Eastern Time, we will see for the first time the new team of Ron Simmons and Barry Wyndham.
42:54They'll be together tonight as they prepare for a future tag team event with the undisputed world champion Lex Luger and Mr. Hughes.
43:01And Lex Luger and Mr. Hughes, along with Harley Race, will come out tonight right on national TV, right here on TBS.
43:09And they will speak to Paul E. dangerously and for a reason.
43:12See, I set this up with Harley Race.
