01:09Good morning again everyone and welcome to TBS and the Power Hour.
01:12Jim Ross here to call the action.
01:14P.N. News getting ready to do a little rap for us here this morning.
01:18This will go good with your scrambled eggs.
01:20The posses yelling hope because they know I'll steal this show.
01:24And burn this house to the ground.
01:27Rock the beat and hit the south.
01:29Yo, baby, yo, baby, yo.
01:31Yo, baby, yo, baby, yo.
01:33I said, yo, baby, yo, baby, yo.
01:36Yo, baby, yo, baby, yo.
01:38What's up, Albany?
01:41And they're continuing his opponent for Palm Beach, Florida.
01:45262 pounds.
01:47Mike Fever.
01:49All right, one-on-one competition.
01:55Referee Randy Anderson calls for the bell.
01:58P.N. News will be at the Omni tonight, I understand.
02:01Of course, the big event tonight is at the Omni, 8 o'clock.
02:05And the first 2,000 kids get their pitchers taken free with a WCW star.
02:11That starts at 6 o'clock tonight.
02:14From 6 to 7, that's when the free pitchers will be taken.
02:18So, kids, if you're planning on being with us tonight at the Omni,
02:21be sure that Mom and Dad get you down there at least by 7 o'clock.
02:25And the first 2,000 kids will get their pitchers taken with a WCW star
02:31and take that pitcher home with them as a free souvenir.
02:37P.N. News, the Radmaster.
02:40Certainly challenging the seams on that spandex, I would say.
02:44The big guy.
02:46He is living large, as could be a term.
02:51Real large.
02:52About 425, I'm guessing.
02:55And a guy by the name of Axel Rotten has come to WCW.
02:59Good move there by the big guy.
03:01To challenge P.N. News.
03:05He says his British bomb is better than the Radmaster Splash.
03:10Or the broken record, as it's referred to in some circles.
03:18Hope you fans will call me on the wrestling hotline today.
03:25I've got some news I think you'll be most interested in hearing.
03:30Ron Simmons may be securing a manager.
03:34Ron Simmons may be securing a manager.
03:37And I'll be talking about that today on the wrestling hotline.
03:40And then at 8 o'clock Eastern, I'll take your calls live on the hotline.
03:46Starting at 8 o'clock tonight.
03:48And P.N. News off the call.
03:56Man, that was an impressive splash, to say the least.
04:00Now let's go to this week's WCW Top Ten, and we'll be back.
04:06And now, fans, here's a look at the World Championship Wrestling Top Ten and Singles competition
04:09as compiled by members of the WCW Board of Directors and its promoters
04:14for the weekend of Saturday, October 12th.
04:17Breaking in the Top Ten once again this week in the number 10 spot,
04:21former World Television Champion, beautiful Bobby.
04:23The number 9 man up one spot from last week, the Diamond Stud.
04:27Johnny B. Bad holds steady at number 8 this week, as does the number 7 man,
04:32Cactus Jack from Truth or Consequences, New Mexico.
04:35The number 6 man, the natural Dustin Rhodes.
04:38Remaining at number 5 this week, the World Television Champion, stunning Steve Austin.
04:437'7", Eligante is at number 4.
04:46The number 3 man for the second week in a row, Barry Windham.
04:51At number 2, the All-American Ron Simmons.
04:53And the number 1 ranked contender once again this week, the U.S. Heavyweight Champion, Stang.
04:57And, of course, the WCW World Heavyweight Champion, the total package, Lex Luger.
05:02And that's a look at the Top Ten.
05:06Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest, it is set for one fall.
05:10Introducing first, from the Northwoods, weighing 275 pounds, Big Josh!
05:23His opponent from Europe, weighing 232 pounds, Sam Panzer!
05:32Well, fans, tonight on WCW, we have a two-hour broadcast for you.
05:36And Big Josh and Fly and Brian will take on Taylor and Morton.
05:41Or, excuse me, Taylor and Rich of the York Foundation.
05:44And Richard Morton is going to be barred from ringside tonight on WCW.
05:48It's going to be interesting to see how that man competes against his former best friend and fishing buddy, Thomas Rich.
05:57Also, tonight on WCW, the TV Championship matchup, Big Todd Champion and Stunning Steve Austin,
06:06plus Bill Kazmaier and Abdullah the Butcher, and the Screaming Eagles will take on the enforcers for the World Tag Title.
06:15That's tonight, WCW, big two-hour broadcast.
06:19We certainly hope you'll be with us.
06:23Big Josh, a prominent member of the World Six-Man Tag Team Champions.
06:29His teammates are Z-Man and Dustin Rhodes.
06:32As Zan Panzer, the Masked Man.
06:35Zan Panzer allegedly is from Europe.
06:37And according to the advanced publicity, there's some somewhat, I don't know,
06:45there's facts I have about the Screaming Eagles looks a little suspicious.
06:49But in any event, they are allegedly the number one team from Europe.
06:55They hail from Liverpool, England.
06:57And they'll make their American television debut on WCW tonight
07:02against the enforcers for the World Tag Title.
07:04Back him up, back him up, back him up, back him up, back him up.
07:07Zan Panzer with a cheap shot on Big Josh.
07:11Big Josh is the kind of guy that you don't want to upset.
07:15And he just got his new T-shirt ripped right there.
07:20That's not going to make him too happy.
07:23Zan Panzer hammering away.
07:26Zan Panzer, impressive athlete, knocked down to one knee there.
07:30The Masked Man showing a relentless offensive thrust here.
07:36Knee to the back, forearm, good move there.
07:44Zan Panzer with that clinched fist.
07:48And Big Josh with the left hand.
07:50And now he's going to use that Big Josh souvenir T-shirt.
08:01Quite uniquely tosses that shirt out to the fans.
08:05Come on!
08:08Big Josh rather upset, obviously.
08:12He's certainly been a friend to Fly-In Bryan
08:14because Pillman's certainly a target of the York Foundation.
08:17Man, that was a great belly-to-belly suplex.
08:20There's a log roll.
08:22And Big Josh and Fly-In Bryan tonight
08:24will take on Rich and Taylor of the York Foundation.
08:28As we mentioned, I think it's a very intelligent move
08:31by the WCW Championship Committee.
08:34Every now and then they surprise me
08:36by doing something rather studious.
08:38They barred Richard Morton from ringside tonight.
08:45Double axe handle.
08:49And he'll get momentum
08:50and a little northern exposure right here.
08:55That's about as simple a finishing maneuver as there is.
08:59Ladies and gentlemen, here's your winner, Big Josh!
09:03Another quick look here on the Power Hour,
09:09belly-to-belly suplex.
09:10Great move by Big Josh.
09:13Remember tonight on World Championship Wrestling,
09:17Big Josh and Fly-In Bryan
09:19will take on Terrence Taylor and Thomas Rich
09:23of the York Foundation
09:24and Richard Morton will be barred from ringside.
09:29More than exposure there by Big Josh.

15:00You see,
15:01I heard about this

15:04Sting,
15:05I have your autograph.
15:06And of course

15:08bill.
15:08Let me ask you this,
15:09Jimbo.
15:10What happens if we get
15:11some little rotten kid
15:12from like a...
15:14From Scarsdale?
15:14From Scarsdale, New York
15:16and he comes up
15:16with a pony...
15:17Hey, that's me
15:18you're talking about.
15:19Ladies and gentlemen...
15:20And now let's say
15:20we get a kid
15:21from a juvenile home
15:22and he wants
15:22Cactus Jack and Abdullah's
15:23autograph.
15:23What do we do then?
15:25Take their picture,
15:25I guess,
15:26and let the kid
15:26sign a waiver
15:27with his own wrist.
15:28Ladies and gentlemen,
15:28the Omni starts
15:29at 8 o'clock tonight.
15:30More on that
15:30in the hour,
15:31but now let's go
15:32to the ring.
15:35Ladies and gentlemen,
15:36the following contest,
15:38it is at Ball One Fall.
15:40Introducing first
15:41from the Diamond Mine,
15:43weighing 298 pounds,
15:47the Diamond Stars.
15:50You know, fans,
15:51one of the big questions
15:52regarding Halloween Havoc
15:53is not only what
15:54the Chamber of Horrors
15:55steel cage match
15:56will be,
15:57but why Barry Wynnum
15:59has joined forces
15:59for this match
16:00with the Diamond Stud,
16:02Oz, and Abdul the Butcher.
16:04A little strange to me.
16:08Everybody listen to me.
16:13All you little kids out there,
16:17take a good look at the stuff
16:19because I'm what you want to be
16:23when you grow up.
16:25I'm your role model.
16:30Hey, competitor,
16:31you know what time it is?
16:33You know what time it is?
16:36It's star time!
16:38Well, I think you kids
16:46that are watching the broadcast
16:47should think about being a
16:49following in the footsteps
16:51of an obnoxious bully
16:54like the Diamond Stud.
16:57He is indeed an impressive
17:00looking athlete.
17:016'7", 298.
17:04Again,
17:05why has Barry Wynnum
17:07chosen to be in the
17:08Chamber of Horrors
17:09steel cage match
17:11with his three teammates?
17:13Or has Barry chosen
17:15to be on that team?
17:16I know in the next few weeks
17:19on WCW,
17:20I'm going to be talking
17:21to him
17:21about that very situation.
17:26Thunderous chop
17:27and down goes T.C. Carter.
17:31Still to come,
17:32our Halloween Havoc Control Center
17:33with the Dean of Wrestling Broadcasters,
17:37Gordon Soley.
17:40We're also going to see
17:41our main event,
17:43Kazmier and Pillman
17:44versus Cactus Jack
17:45and the Butcher.
17:48Belly to back,
17:49two clacks off the second row.
17:52And T.C. Carter,
17:54quite frankly,
17:55ladies and gentlemen,
17:57has been grossly outmanned
17:59here in this matchup.
18:01The Diamond Stud,
18:02one of eight,
18:03that will be in the Chamber
18:04of Horrors at Halloween Havoc,
18:06preparing for his
18:07Triple D,
18:08the Diamond Death Drop.
18:14Lateral press,
18:15he's hooked the leg,
18:17and that will be all.
18:18Ladies and gentlemen,
18:19here's your winner,
18:20the Diamond Stud.
18:29Diamond Stud
18:30with a high-impact victory
18:32here on the Power Hour.
18:34Fans, they tell me that
18:35many of you are coming
18:38from all over the southeast
18:40to the Omni tonight.
18:41It's the place to be.
18:43Atlanta's Omni tonight,
18:448 o'clock starting time.
18:46We'll talk more
18:47about that phenomenal event
18:49a little bit later
18:51here this morning
18:51on TVN.
18:53Welcome to Halloween Havoc Control Center.
19:15I'm Gordon Soley,

19:27The big question right now
19:28is who will become
19:29the new world heavyweight champion?
19:32Will Lex Luger continue
19:34to dominate and keep
19:35his world title,
19:36or will Ron Simmons
19:37achieve his lifelong goal
19:39and become the new
19:41WCW world heavyweight champion?
19:43And the other situation,
19:46what fate awaits?
19:47The eight men going into
19:48that Chamber of Horrors
19:49steel cage match.
19:51Who are the creatures?
19:52And who is the phantom

19:57that will be answered
19:58on October 27th

20:05that we take a moment
20:06to take a look at the entire lineup

21:33that gives Ron Simmons
21:34some added incentive
21:35for this title.
21:37Let's go back to the signing
21:39and take a look at what happened.
21:40I want you to start a great team here
21:42and because of the kind of man you are
21:44you'll always have a position with me
21:47a lot of fringe benefits
21:49a lot of perks
21:51I've got my mentor
21:53I've got my bodyguard
21:55One thing for sure
22:11you don't insult the dignity
22:13of one Ron Simmons
22:14you'll be there
22:14with both guns strapped on
22:16for Halloween Havoc.
22:17And then the Chamber of Horrors
22:18the steel cage match
22:20with eight men.
22:21We still don't know
22:22an awful lot about that
22:23and last week
22:24as you remember of course
22:26Pauly Dangerously
22:26and Missy Hyatt
22:27went out on their big adventure
22:28to find out more about
22:30the Chamber of Horrors
22:31steel cage match.
22:32Well, they met with some
22:33misfortunes
22:35but perhaps we'll fare better this week.
22:37We sent our club reporters out
22:39once again to find out.
22:41Hey, we're in my town now
22:43Los Angeles
22:44well, I mean it's like East LA
22:45it's not Beverly Hills or anything.
22:47Are you sure it's safe to be here?
22:48Of course it is
22:49and why are you wearing
22:50this stupid leather jacket?
22:52My Indiana Jones look!
22:54Oh gosh!
22:56Howard Bernstein
22:57and Jimmy Hurley
22:58told me this is the place
22:59the Chamber of Horrors
23:00is being built right in here
23:02I've got this scooter
23:03In Los Angeles?
23:04That's right
23:04and when we get down
23:05after we find it and see it
23:07I'm going to treat you
23:08to Spago, okay?
23:09Come on!
23:09You're buying?
23:10Of course!
23:11Because I'm going to find it.
23:12Okay, well let's go.
23:13Come on!
23:15No!
23:16I get to get it first!
23:18I'm there!
23:19It's Mike!
23:21Stop it!
23:21Don't hit me!
23:23Such a nudge!
23:26Well?
23:27Now look, Howard Bernstein
23:28he told me
23:29he's never done me wrong
23:30on stocks, bonds,
23:31real estate, anything
23:31I know it's in here.
23:33Well, I don't see
23:34any Chamber of Horrors, Missy.
23:38What's that?
23:40What?
23:40There's a light up there!
23:41Hey, move!
23:42This is my place!
23:43I'm going to find it!
23:51Polly?
23:52It's a little dark up here!
23:55I love Los Angeles!
23:56Polly!
23:57Who's the buying?
23:58Hey, camera guy!
24:00I need a little help!
24:01No!
24:02No!

24:18Polly Dangerously back with you here on TBS in the Power Hour, everyone.
24:21Don't forget, tonight, the action in the Omni starts at 8 o'clock.
24:24Good seats are still available.
24:26And, kids, if you're one of the first 2,000 attending that event, you will receive absolutely
24:30free your photograph taken with a WCW star.
24:33Now, tomorrow night, on the main event, I want to encourage you to join us.
24:37It will be Rick Steiner, Larry Zabisco, one-on-one.
24:42See, this isn't very prudent of a dog-faced gremlin, because last week, he fought on Anderson, and
24:46he earned that victory!
24:48I'm not going to take that away from him.
24:50But you showed your game plan, sir, and when you go in against the enforcer, Larry Zabisco,
24:54master of the game of human chess, and he takes you down to the mat, he'll put you in
24:58checkmate.
24:58That's tomorrow on the main event, 6.05 Eastern Time.
25:01Now, still to come, Bill Kazmaier and Flyin' Brian to take on Abdul the Butcher and Cactus
25:06Jack.
25:07But right now, we want to go to the ring, and something we haven't seen in quite some time,
25:11one of the Young Pistols.
25:13Tracy of the Young Pistols will be in one-on-one competition.
25:16Bob Cook and Young Pistols Tracy Smothers here, one-on-one.
25:25Referee has called for the belt.
25:27Fans, don't forget now that today on the Wrestling Hotline, I'll talk about Ron Simmons and his
25:34quest to hire a manager before Halloween having.
25:38Tonight, we'll also talk about a new female sensation that will be appearing soon in WCW.
25:46And then tonight at 8 o'clock Eastern Time, I will take your calls live on the Wrestling Hotline.
25:54We'll talk about anything you choose in the world of wrestling, especially as it relates to WCW.
26:01Any of your questions can be asked tonight at 8 o'clock.
26:07So, I hope you'll call us at 8 o'clock Eastern Time, right after the conclusion of WCW tonight.
26:18Good football block there by Tracy.
26:24Bob Cook's an outstanding competitor, I've got to say that.
26:27I've mentioned that many times.
26:28Tracy, the high hip-block takeover, follows it with a dropkick.
26:31Good move there.
26:32A lot of offense, whether you see the Young Pistols together or singularly, you're going to see a very fast-paced matchup.
26:42Still to come, Missy does the mail, and she will focus on the pending world championship matchup between Lex Luger and Ron Simmons.
26:52Both arms hooked there, and Cook able to roll off the pending predicament.
26:56Really think they've got one of the most outstanding WCW broadcasts in quite some time.
27:09And we really want to thank you folks for being with us, because in the last several weeks,
27:14WCW has been the most watched wrestling program on cable television in America.
27:20And we thank you for that accomplishment.
27:27Nice move by Tracy, avoiding Cook.
27:31Martial arts blows.
27:33And a karate kick to the side of the head.
27:37Cook outside, but so is Tracy.
27:43Both feet right to the chest.
27:45Tonight, in addition to that match we talked about, Richard Morton will be barred when Taylor and Rich take on Pillman and Big Josh.
27:57Plus, Stunning Steve defends the TV title against the Big Todd champion of the Patriots.
28:03One-on-one, Bill Kazmaier and Abdullah.
28:07Any predicament here?
28:09Leg is hooked.
28:10And the Screaming Eagles.
28:11That certainly has my curiosity aroused.
28:15We'll challenge in their American debut, the enforcers for the WCW World Tag Team title,
28:22and the world premiere video of heavy metal Van Hammer.
28:26That and much more tonight on WCW.
28:33Nice move.
28:34Another karate kick.
28:36This time caught Cook right in the face.
28:38And that one did more damage than the previous one.
28:41But the veteran Bob Cook pulled the knees up.
28:44Good move.
28:45And now hammers Tracy Smothers with a devastating pair of rights.
28:51A kick to the chest.
28:57Nice quick movement there.
29:00And Tracy with the elbow.
29:04Cook turned around just in time to get nailed.
29:07Ladies and gentlemen, here's your winner, Young Pistol, Tracy Smothers.
29:23Welcome back to the Power Hour.
29:25I'm Missy Hyatt, and this is Missy Desna Male.
29:27With Halloween Havoc only two weeks away, Lex Luger and Ron Simmons are both preparing
29:33for their two out of three falls world title bout.
29:38I think Ron Simmons will be lucky if he makes it to Halloween Havoc in one piece.
29:44But he is determined to be the next world's heavyweight champion.
29:48Huh, what a dreamer.
29:50Anyway, he has returned to the school that I made famous to get ready for the total package.
29:57Let's see how his training is going.
29:59I thought what a better place for me to come and prepare myself than right here where it
30:04all began for me, right here on the campus of FSU.
30:07You know, when I came down here, I was consensus all-american.
30:11When I come down here with the desire and determination that I wanted to be the best I could, and I was.
30:15So I wanted to come here and capture some of that.
30:18And here I am.
30:19And I'm going to give it everything that I've got to be the world's heavyweight champion.
30:23I know you, you know exactly what it's going to take you wondering.
30:52If I know you, you've done everything you possibly, possibly can do to prepare for it.
30:58So just remember the things I used to tell you when you're here.
31:02Don't worry about winning it.
31:04You just go out and work and fight and stamp the hardest you can do and do the very best you can do.
31:11And you don't know any other way.
31:13And then we just let the ship fall where they are.
31:16But I want you to know this, when y'all get locked up and it's pretty tight,
31:21and you think he might be about to turn you,
31:24just don't forget, the old folks are sitting out there looking and resting on the press.
31:27Ladies and gentlemen, the challenger for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship,
31:48weighing 278 pounds, the All-American, Ron Simmons.
31:57Poor Ron.
31:58He wants so desperately to be the world's heavyweight champion.
32:02But it will never happen.
32:04First of all, he hasn't even asked me for any advice.
32:09Not too smart, Ron.
32:10Secondly, he must beat Lex Luger two falls, and I don't think he can.
32:17Lex is too smart, too strong, and too sexy to ever lose to a wannabe like Ron Simmons.
32:26I've prepared a special video on Lex Luger in training, and it is hot.
32:32This is especially for you ladies.
32:35Now this is the total package.
32:40Now that's a real man.
33:02Six feet five, 290 pounds.
33:07Beautiful blue eyes.
33:09I just wish more men were like Lex.
33:12He is the perfect world's heavyweight champion.
33:16Now that he's stopped signing autographs and paying attention to all the fans,
33:21he has become unbeatable.
33:23I personally cannot relate to being second best,
33:26but Ron, I suggest you get used to it.
33:30Let's face it.
33:31Can you ever remember me being wrong?
33:33I'm Missy Hyatt, and this has been Missy Does the Mail.
33:36The following is our feature confrontation.
33:51Tag team action set for one ball, introducing team number one, first from Auburn, Alabama,
33:57weighing 334 pounds, the world's strongest human being, Bill Kazmaier.
34:08His tag team partner from Cincinnati, Ohio, weighing 227 pounds, Lion Ryan.
34:18Gary Capetta about to introduce the two men that will step inside a steel cage tonight in the Omni in Atlanta.
34:29Introducing first, from Truth or Consequences, New Mexico,
34:32weighing 287 pounds, Cactus Jack.
34:37And from the Sudan, weighing 465 pounds, Abdulla the Butcher.
34:48Cactus Jack and Abdulla, upon occasion, have dominated Sting individually and Rick Steiner individually.
34:56But they'll padlock that door shut in the Omni tonight.
35:02And it's going to be a real bloodbath, in my estimation, inside that cage.
35:09Those two guys don't mind spilling the blood.
35:13They don't mind hurting somebody because that's what they're paid to do.
35:17Whomever is their benefactor has made it clear that he wants Sting eliminated from WCW.
35:25And tonight, in the cage, in the Omni, will be a perfect opportunity for that to transpire.
35:35I'm not so sure that Sting and Steiner know full well what awaits them at 8 o'clock tonight in the Omni.
35:44But, great seats are still available for that one.
35:48Hope you'll join us for it.
35:51Cactus Jack and the Flyin' Brian starting out here in this contest.
35:55Cactus Jack, the deranged man from Truth or Consequences, New Mexico.
36:00Flyin' Brian avoided.
36:01Cactus Jack leads him to the other corner.
36:03Head and shoulder fake.
36:04Good move.
36:05Cactus in a dame.
36:07Even more so than normal.
36:08And there's a tag to the world's strongest human being, Bill Kazmaier.
36:22Kazmaier will face Abdul the Butcher tonight on WCW, part of a two-hour broadcast one-on-one.
36:28I have had the privilege of seeing the video of heavy metal Van Hammer that will be premiered to the world tonight.
36:38It was produced by Mike Volancic, and it is a beautiful piece of work.
36:43One of the best, if not the best, wrestling videos I've seen in my career.
36:50Kazmaier still has those injured ribs, as you can see.
36:53They're still heavily taped.
36:54And Cactus Jack taking advantage of it.
36:58Kazmaier powers out.
37:02His strength records are almost hard to believe.
37:05If they weren't documented, I'm not so sure I would believe them.
37:11And there's the bear hug.
37:13And a dropkick by Flyin' Brian.
37:16They did make the tag.
37:17And Kazmaier obviously is in a great deal of pain here this morning on TBS due to his ribs being so, I guess, they just can't heal if he keeps competing.
37:31Nice move by Flyin' Brian.
37:33And Abdul the Butcher with a karate thrust to the throat.
37:37And here comes the 460-pounder with another karate thrust to the throat of Flyin' Brian.
37:44Shoulder block, and that drives the kid all the way outside his head, ramming the steel security railing.
37:58He's having about as much success here against Abdul the Butcher as the Cincinnati Bengals have had against the rest of the NFL this season.
38:07Oh, shit!
38:11Get up, don't you break it up!
38:12Get in the ring!
38:13Break it up!
38:14One, two, three!
38:16Billman almost choked out.
38:18And they need to do something about these guys.
38:20They should disqualify them.
38:23But of course, in that cage in the Omni, anything goes tonight.
38:29Referee Nick Patrick checking the physical health.
38:34A Flyin' Brian here.
38:43Well, this kid can barely stand.
38:46And the Butcher's like a...
38:48some type of carnivorous creature just waiting young Pillman to re-enter the ring here.
39:00Pillman almost out of his feet.
39:02Crashed right into the security railing after the 460-pounder, Abdul the Butcher ran into it.
39:10Cactus Jack with a kick to the head.
39:12Come on, run!
39:13Come on, run!
39:13Come on, run!
39:14Come on, run!
39:16And don't forget now, all day on the wrestling hotline, I'll talk about Ron Simmons' search for a new manager.
39:25We'll talk about a new female sensation on her way to WCW.
39:29And then I'll take your calls live tonight on the hotline at 8 Eastern or immediately following WCW.
39:38Spitty karate kick by Flyin' Brian.
39:43And the Cincinnati kid, who wants to be the first WCW light heavyweight champion, trying to make the tag to an injured Bill Kazmaier.
39:55And he makes the tag.
39:57Kazmaier with a shoulder block.
39:59And now here comes Abdul the Butcher.
40:02These two, one-on-one tonight on TVS.
40:06And Kazmaier got him up!
40:10He got 460 up in a bear hug!
40:15Cactus Jack from behind.
40:18And here comes Pillman.
40:23Quite a kickoff to an outstanding wrestling weekend here on TVS.
40:32Again, Abdullah with a karate on Flyin' Brian.
40:39Kazmaier's got Cactus up on his shoulders.
40:41A very unique version of a power slam.
40:50And the ribs just got cracked again by that kendo stick of Abdullah the Butcher.
40:59The Butcher trying to demolish Kazmaier before the TV program tonight.
41:08Listen to the impact.
41:14Right into the injured ribs.
41:17I don't know how much more Kazmaier can sustain of this.
41:21As a result of a disqualification.
41:25Well, this decision doesn't affect these guys at all.
41:31Well, after that tag team encounter, tonight's one-on-one matchup on World Championship Wrestling
41:35between the world's strongest man, Bill Kazmaier, and Abdul the Butcher takes on additional significance.
41:41And also tonight, don't forget, they're from Liverpool, England.
41:44They're the Screaming Eagles.
41:46They're going to challenge in their American debut the enforcers for the World Tag Team.
41:50And the videotape is on the plane.
41:52I just confirmed it.
41:53It will land right here in Atlanta.
41:55We'll bring it to the control room at TBS.
41:57And it will air by 6.05 tonight.
41:59Have you been able to do any scouting or secure any additional information on the Screaming Eagles?
42:03I got it. I got the three-quarter-inch videotape, which, of course, is broadcast quality tape.
42:07We will put it into the control room.
42:08We will air it tonight.
42:09And the Screaming Eagles, I will tell you this from what I understand,
42:12they're 6'7", 6'8", apiece.
42:14These guys are giants.
42:15And tonight, I predict the Screaming Eagles will defeat the enforcers of the World Tag Team titles.
42:20Fans, that's just one of the many main events that you'll see tonight on our big two-hour broadcast.
42:24For Missy Hyatt and Paul E. Dangerously, I'm Jim Ross.
42:28We'll see you tonight on WCW.
