00:00center. Missy Hyatt does the mail and her focus will be the fabulous free birds confrontations
00:06with the enforcers. Flyin' Brian takes on Thomas Rich of the York Foundation
00:10and much more this morning on the Power Hour.
00:30Ladies and gentlemen, the following tag team events, it is set for one fall. Introducing first,
00:50double A Arn Anderson, living legend Larry Zbysko, the Enforcers.
00:57The World Tag Team Champions making their way to the ring and they've got a busy weekend
01:03here on TBS tonight. Zbysko takes on Michael Hayes one-on-one and then tomorrow on the main
01:09event, both Enforcers will take on Rick Steiner in a handicap match. An Enforcer kind of weekend
01:18here on TBS as Gary and Michael Capetta both make another introduction.
01:23Ladies and gentlemen, their opponents, from Wyoming, Steve Tracy, the Young Pistols.
01:32Fans, this is a non-title event here on the Power Hour this morning.
01:36Had an interesting conversation yesterday with the Young Pistols and they are negotiating
01:46with WCW for a matchup with the Patriots for the United States Tag Team Championship.
01:53So we may expect to see a Patriots Young Pistols matchup for the next few weeks.
02:03Anderson on your left, Zbysko on your right, the WCW World Tag Team Champions.
02:10And as we mentioned tonight on WCW, Zbysko and Michael Hayes will go one-on-one.
02:22Caller Novo tie-up, Tracy Smothers and Arne Anderson starting it out for their respective teams.
02:29Good counter move by Tracy back into the wrist lock. Single leg pickup by Anderson. Oh, slapped him.
02:37And Tracy with a nice karate kick. Shades of Antonio Inoki, the great Japanese star with that move. Karate kick to the back of the head.
03:07Young Pistols hammering away at double-A Arne Anderson.
03:11And Anderson somewhat a little out of balance there. His equilibrium has been altered thanks to the Young Pistols.
03:27These two guys are really looking forward to this Sunday's main event.
03:31They'll have the opportunity for two men to take on one, that meaning Rick Steiner.
03:41Not a very judicious move by Rick Steiner in my estimation.
03:44Waist lock by Anderson. Zbysko, the legal man in the ring now.
03:53Right, headlock.
03:54Good shoulder block there.
04:01And a counter. Young Pistols have a decided advantage in the quickness department here.
04:09Steve Armstrong in there.
04:13Chops.
04:13Big crowd watching this event here this morning on TBS.
04:21And Anderson nailed Armstrong in the lower back with a knee.
04:33Powerful elbow by one half of the world tag team champions.
04:38My opinion, the finest tag team wrestler in the game.
04:58Referee Nick Patrick has his hands full on this one.
05:00Anderson's head, you heard the smack on that top turnbuckle.
05:10Oh, what a clothesline by Steve Armstrong.
05:14He nails Zbysko for good measure.
05:16And now he has the sleeper on double A.
05:20What an upset this would be
05:22if the Young Pistols could pull off a victory here.
05:26Well, that was a superb counter move by Anderson.
05:32Executing a modified belly-to-back suplex
05:35and dropping Armstrong on his head.
05:38Zbysko now, the legal man, back in.
05:42Scoop slam.
05:44Larry the lip.
05:46A former Pittsburgher.
05:50Snap marrying Armstrong over.
05:56Nice neck breaker and a lateral press.
06:03Got two out of it.
06:05Got him to the referee.
06:11Almost a punt there by Armstrong.
06:16Tag made.
06:16Anderson backhand.
06:20Snap mirrors him over.
06:22The enforcer's now in control.
06:23But don't count out the Young Pistols.
06:26They are sudden.
06:27They are quick.
06:28And he makes the tag.
06:30And Tracy Smothers over the top rope.
06:34Young man with a great martial arts background.
06:38Scoop slams.
06:40And drop kicks.
06:42The enforcers now are reeling
06:43from this offensive onslaught by Tracy.
06:47Tracy up and over.
06:48Goes outside after Anderson.
06:51Armstrong's in there with Zbysko.
06:52Oh, Tracy ran into the steel.
06:57Smothers ran right into the steel ring post.
07:01And now the enforcers.
07:03Well, Tracy's pulled Anderson down.
07:08A little chaotic here at ringside.
07:10Zbysko has Armstrong up on a pile driver.
07:13Tracy now on the top rope.
07:14Elbow off the top.
07:19He may have him right here.
07:21He's got him pinned.
07:24Referee's putting Armstrong out.
07:25And Anderson came off the second turnbuckle.
07:30Zbysko now just falls on Smothers.
07:33And he'll get the pin.
07:34Well, ladies and gentlemen, here are your winners.
07:37Double A, Arn Anderson.
07:38Living legend Larry Zbysko.
07:41The enforcer.
07:43Well, the enforcers start off the weekend with a victory here on TBS.
07:47Don't forget tonight.
07:49WCW follows SEC football.
07:52Zbysko and Hayes.
07:53And tomorrow, both enforcers take on Rick Steiner in a handicap match.
08:00Great offensive move there by Tracy.
08:02Thought he had him.
08:04But Anderson, double axe handle.
08:08Got the victory for the enforcers.
08:13Here's the latest WCW top ten rankings for single competition

09:36Stunning Steve has signed to defend
09:39the World Television Championship
09:40against the 403-pound rap master, PN News.
09:45And speaking of PN News,
09:46at 9 o'clock tonight on the Wrestling Hotline,
09:49Lance Russell will conduct a PN News special.
09:52He'll have some interviews with PN News.
09:53I understand the big man from OTAN
09:55will have some new raps.
09:57Should be an interesting broadcast tonight.
09:58An in-depth look at PN News
10:00on the Wrestling Hotline at 9 o'clock tonight.
10:03Now, don't forget, Stunning Steve Austin
10:05has signed to defend the World Television Championship
10:07at Halloween Havoc against Dustin Rhodes.
10:10We must say that Austin has been
10:12one of the most competitive champions
10:13that we've seen in many, many years here at WCW.
10:16We'll talk more about this outstanding competitor
10:19from Hollywood, California.
10:20But right now, let's go to the ring
10:22on Stunning Steve Austin.
10:26Wrestling fans, the following contest.
10:28It is set for one call.
10:30Introducing first, accompanied by Lady Blossom
10:34from Hollywood, California.
10:37Weighing 253 pounds,
10:40he is the WCW World Television Champion,
10:46Stunning Steve Austin.
10:51His opponent from Chattanooga, Tennessee,
10:54233 pounds, Greg Stryer.
11:00Greg Sawyer from Chattanooga.
11:02And ladies and gentlemen,
11:03the special guest referee for this match,
11:07the Z-Man!
11:11The Z-Man fulfilling some of his last commitments
11:14officiating in WCW.
11:16But I was about to say that Greg Sawyer
11:18is from Chattanooga.
11:20Of course, that is the site of Halloween Havoc,
11:23which is only eight days away
11:24for our friends in the Chattanooga area.
11:29Or if you plan on attending the event,
11:31we understand that good seats are still available.
11:33And there will be good seats held for you fans
11:36coming from out of town
11:37at the UTC Arena box office
11:39right up until near match time
11:42one week from tomorrow night.
11:44For those of you that can't join us in Chattanooga,
11:49we certainly encourage you to call your local cable company.
11:53Be with us on this event
11:55that starts at 7 p.m. Eastern time
11:57next Sunday, October 27th.
12:01Stunning Steve Austin,
12:02258 from Hollywood with an Irish whip.
12:05Great athletic ability.
12:07Austin had an outstanding football background
12:09that we're learning more and more about.
12:12The outstanding high-skill athlete
12:14and competed in his scholastic years
12:18in the state of Texas.
12:19And a powerful elbow.
12:23As we had mentioned moments ago,
12:25that Stunning Steve signed to take on
12:28Dustin Rhodes at Halloween Havoc for the TV title.
12:31And of course, that depends,
12:34or is contingent upon,
12:35Austin remaining the champion
12:38for eight more days.
12:41Break it one, two, three.
12:44And really, that goes for any championship match
12:46that's signed.
12:47And there is Lady Blossom
12:51interjecting herself in this contest.
12:58Clothesline there.
13:01Z-Man really been
13:02doing a great job officiating.
13:09But I know that this is only
13:10a temporary position for him.
13:16Nice suplex there by Austin.
13:18Z-Man is very, very impartial.
13:21And Austin...
13:22Really stretching the patience
13:27of the referee here.
13:29He had Sawyer pinned there
13:31a couple of times
13:32and wouldn't follow through
13:33and execute the count.
13:35It's going to backfire on him someday.
13:36Austin up top.
13:40Wow, what a move.
13:41New move by Austin.
13:42Off the top.
13:43And again,
13:44he refuses to pin the guy.
13:47Okay, here you go.
13:48One, two, go.
13:50Well, as a former wrestling referee,
13:55I can tell you
13:56it gets very frustrating sometimes
13:57when you have an athlete like Austin
13:59that has completely outmanned
14:01his opponent to this point
14:03and doesn't really want to pin him,
14:05which is the object to win.
14:07He wants to punish him.
14:08Z-Man chastising Austin,
14:23but it seems like Austin
14:25has a mind of his own.
14:26Snip knee right to the midsection
14:35and again a lateral press.
14:37One, two, go.
14:40Well, I am just not so sure
14:42that Z-Man is going to tolerate this
14:44a great deal longer.
14:46We want to thank our friends
14:48at Lionel Play World
14:50for their promotional help
14:51in the Halloween Havoc this year.
14:53And also,
14:57one of the sponsors
14:59of my radio program,
15:01Impel Marketing,
15:02the manufacturers
15:03of the Stomp Collection,
15:04the official trading card
15:05of WCW.
15:08Both those great sponsors
15:09from Impel Marketing
15:11and Lionel Play World
15:12involved with us
15:13at the Halloween Havoc
15:15promotionally,
15:17and we certainly appreciate
15:18their efforts.
15:19Well, I know Z-Man pretty well,
15:25and I know that his patients
15:26are wearing thin.
15:33There's the stun gun,
15:34and now maybe he'll put Sawyer
15:36out of his misery.
15:37And ladies and gentlemen,
15:41the winner of the match,
15:43the WCW World Television Champion,
15:45stunning Steve Austin.
15:48Austin and PN News tonight
15:50on WCW for the Television Championship.
15:54And while the match is over,
15:58he just tossed this kid outside.
15:59What's the reason for that?
16:02And Z-Man's not going to tolerate it.
16:04Ladies and gentlemen,
16:05special guest referee Z-Man
16:07has reversed the decision.
16:09The winner of the match,
16:11Greg Sawyer!
16:14Well, Greg Sawyer
16:16will get the winner's share
16:17of the purse.
16:19And Austin,
16:20because of his arrogance,
16:21will go home on the,
16:23with the short side
16:24of the money here this morning.
16:30And Austin knows
16:31he strikes the referee.
16:33He could theoretically be stripped
16:34to the TV title.
16:38Fans coming up
16:39in just a few moments.
16:41The Dean, Gordon Soley,
16:42will be in the WCW Control Center.
16:46The Power Hour continues
16:47right after this.
16:48Hello, everyone.
17:05I'm Gordon Soley,
17:10and this is the Halloween Havoc Control Center.
17:13Next weekend,
17:14World Championship Wrestling
17:16presents Halloween Havoc,
17:17a pay-per-view exclusive.
17:19I want to encourage you
17:20to contact your local cable company
17:22and order this spectacular event.
17:25We'll also offer live coverage
17:27of Halloween Havoc
17:28on the Wrestling Hotline.
17:30You know,
17:31speculation is running rampant
17:32regarding several features
17:33of Halloween Havoc.
17:35First,
17:35who is the team
17:36known only as the Creatures?
17:38Do we know them
17:39by another name,
17:40or are they an entirely new duo
17:41in WCW?
17:43Secondly,
17:44who is the WCW Halloween Phantom?
17:47We know he will face the Z-Man,
17:49but that is all we know.
17:51Could he be a major star
17:53set to debut on October 27th,
17:55or could it be an old rival
17:56of the Z-Man
17:57who hopes to surprise
17:58the popular young Minnesotan?
18:00But perhaps,
18:01the biggest mystery of all
18:03surrounds the Chamber of Horrors
18:04steel cage match.
18:05Pauly Dangerously
18:07and Missy Hyatt
18:08began their search
18:09for the Chamber of Horrors
18:10two weeks ago.
18:12Their travels have taken them
18:13from Secaucus, New Jersey
18:14to East Los Angeles, California.
18:17Well, this week,
18:18they filed their report
18:19from Dallas, Texas.
18:21What's that noise?
18:23See, I'm telling you,
18:23it's being built
18:24in this warehouse.
18:25The Chamber of Horrors,
18:26the biggest,
18:27the baddest,
18:28the meanest,
18:29the bloodiest type
18:31of cage match
18:32ever designed
18:33in World Championship Wrestling,
18:34and they're designing it here, Missy.
18:36Jim Ross is right.
18:37It's here,
18:38and I can...
18:38All right, nobody move!
18:39Nobody move!
18:40This is a robbery!
18:40Come on, all right!
18:41She has a lot of money!
18:42Hey, shut up!
18:42I got a knife!
18:43I got a knife here!
18:45Oh, please!
18:46You gonna try to rob us with that?
18:48Hey, hey,
18:49it's not the size that counts,
18:50it's how you use it.
18:51Here's the point there.
18:52Well, get if you're ready!
18:52All right, all right, all right.
18:53And you, come on, you...
18:55You...
18:55I know you...
18:56You're, um...
18:57You're, uh...
18:58On television, that girl, that girl...
19:00Missy Hyatt.
19:00Missy Hyatt?
19:01Yeah, yeah!
19:01Yeah, you're Jason Harvey!
19:03No, no, no!
19:03No, you're not!
19:04You're Paul Dean!
19:04Holy shit!
19:05We're World Championship Wrestling Dean!
19:07What are you guys doing down here?
19:09We're filming right now.
19:10We're looking for the Chamber of Horrors.
19:12We're on TV right now.
19:13TV?
19:13Yeah.
19:14Hey, you know,
19:15I do some impressions.
19:16Here, hold it.
19:16You got a microphone on you?
19:17Yeah, here you go.
19:18All right, where's it?
19:18Never mind, I do impressions.
19:19Watch this, watch this, watch this.
19:20Hmm?
19:21Why do dirty rats...
19:22You're the rat to kill my brother.
19:25That's good!
19:25That's good!
19:26That's real good!
19:26Yeah, that's...
19:27Here's looking at you, kid.
19:30This is my best one.
19:30This is my...
19:31Jack Nicholson.
19:33Play a game.
19:34Yeah!
19:36Now...
19:37Hey!
19:39That's what I call a Chamber of Horrors.
19:42You know what?
19:42Now World Championship Wrestling
19:44is not gonna let us go on any more trips.
19:46Unfortunately, our two cup reporters
19:48have not been extremely successful
19:50on their search.
19:52My concern regarding the Chamber of Horrors
19:54is why has it been kept a secret
19:56from us here at WCW and you fans?
20:00Now, could it be that if the eight men
20:02who will compete knew conclusively
20:04what they were entering,
20:06that they might want to withdraw
20:07from the competition?
20:09Injuries play a prominent part
20:11in any steel cage match.
20:12However, the Chamber of Horrors
20:15may set an all-time record
20:16for casualties.
20:19Now, let's take a look
20:20at the entire lineup.
20:21It's Halloween Havoc

23:42And I'm pretty, too.
23:57Well, I think
23:58that pretty well
23:59sums it up.
24:04Johnny B. Badd
24:05dressed in flaming pink.
24:06And I guess now
24:12that they have decided
24:13what up
24:13that Peanuthead

24:19rightful place

24:26who patiently
24:26waited to get
24:27this one started.
24:29Shoulder blocked
24:30by Johnny B. Badd.
24:31Johnny B. Badd,
24:32the son of a
24:33New York City
24:33police officer,
24:34making a good
24:35counter move there.
24:38Drop kick.
24:40He's really
24:40expanding his
24:41repertoire here
24:42in WCW.
24:44Not as solely
24:45dependent on
24:46his left hand
24:47as he was
24:48when he first
24:49started the
24:49in here
24:50in WCW.
24:54Becoming more
24:55proficient in

24:57He'll even
24:57go to the top
24:58rope from time
24:59to time
24:59and take a chance.
25:00Come on,
25:02let him know
25:03you're a bad

25:15hush and let
25:15everybody know
25:16he's a bad
25:16man, I don't
25:17think.
25:17High knee there
25:18really cracked
25:20him in the face
25:21and now he's
25:23loosened up.
25:26Watch his hands.
25:28Oh, man,

25:57baby.
25:58Yeah.
25:59Johnny B.

26:01the Irish
26:02whip.
26:04A knee

27:56I've been accused

27:57about football,
27:59so that's the
28:00extent of it for

29:12Certainly appreciate
29:12you fans calling the
29:14wrestling hotline.
29:15We've got some real
29:16interesting information
29:17for you today.
29:20Somebody liked it so
29:21well last week that
29:22they taped it and
29:23called my home and
29:25played it for me
29:26several times over the
29:27weekend.
29:28Just don't know what

29:46Front face lock

29:53And an elbow drop
29:54there.
29:55Hook the leg.
29:56And Mella able to
29:58kick out of it.
30:00Don't forget now
30:01still to come,
30:02Missy does the male.
30:03Her focus,
30:03the free birds
30:04enforcers view.
30:07We'll also see
30:08Tommy Rich of the
30:09York Foundation.
30:10I should say Thomas.
30:11I apologize.
30:13They take on
30:13flying Bryant.
30:18Irish whip.
30:20And the bulldog.
30:21Dustin Rhodes for the
30:26bulldog.
30:26Hook of the leg.
30:27And this one's in the
30:28book.
30:28The winner of the
30:29match, the natural
30:31Dustin Rhodes.
30:47Welcome back to the
30:48Power Hour.
30:49I'm Missy Hyatt and
30:50this is Missy Does the
30:51Mail.
30:52Today my focus concerns
30:54the WCW World Tag Team
30:56Championship.
30:57As you know, the
30:58champions are Larry
30:59Zbysko and Iron
31:01Anderson, together known
31:03as the enforcers.
31:04Two men that want to be
31:06the champions are the
31:07ill-groomed free birds,
31:09Michael Hayes and Jimmy
31:10Garvin.
31:11Recently on World
31:13Championship Wrestling,
31:14the free birds assaulted
31:16two preliminary wrestlers
31:17and then began an
31:19unofficial match with the
31:21enforcers.
31:22Here are the disgusting
31:23closing moments of that
31:25brawl.
31:26And Garvin is caught
31:27with a vicious elbow to
31:29the back of the head.
31:31Anderson's getting ready to
31:32finish him off.
31:34All right.
31:34That left hand by Hayes.
31:36He's got it cradled.
31:37And Anderson is going to be
31:38can't.
31:39In my opinion, the free
31:43birds should be punished
31:44for those actions.
31:45They were not scheduled to
31:46wrestle on WCW and
31:48disrupted the entire
31:50television program.
31:52Who do Hayes and Garvin
31:53think they are anyway?
31:55Mick Jagger and Keith
31:57Richards?
31:58Well, the following week
31:59on WCW, the enforcers
32:01agreed to defend the
32:03World Tag Team titles
32:04against a team from
32:06Liverpool, England, the
32:07Screaming Eagles.
32:09Let me assure you that
32:10the Screaming Eagles were
32:12not from England, but
32:14from Bad Street, USA.
32:17Yes, the free birds posed
32:19as the Screaming Eagles
32:20to trick the enforcers into
32:22signing a title match.
32:24However, this time,
32:26Michael's purely stupid
32:28Hayes and Jimmy, I look
32:30like Jerry Garcia Garvin,
32:33received exactly what they
32:35deserved.
32:35He caught him with a DDT.
32:39And Anderson just hit
32:40Garvin in the face with a
32:42championship belt.
32:43Oh, but it's not Garvin
32:44and it's not a face.
32:45It's an eagle and a mask.
32:48And it's, they got the
32:49pin.
32:50World Championship Wrestling
32:52has now officially signed a
32:54tag title bout between
32:55the enforcers and the
32:57free birds.
32:57I must admit, this should be
32:59a tremendous bout.
33:00But the enforcers are clearly
33:02the better team.
33:03As a matter of fact,
33:05comparing the enforcers to
33:06the free birds is like
33:08comparing a cheap beverage
33:09to a fine-aged wine.
33:12Or comparing me to, say,
33:14Madonna or Julia Roberts,
33:16who are obviously Missy
33:18Hyatt wannabes.
33:19The enforcers are the
33:21greatest team in the world,
33:23not muscleheads with weird
33:25haircuts or two guys like the
33:27birds who want to regain what
33:29was once theirs.
33:31Free birds, get over it.
33:33You will never be the world
33:34tag team champions again.
33:36And by the way, get a haircut.
33:40I'm Missy Hyatt, and this has
33:42been Missy Does the Mail.
33:43The Power Hour continues
33:45right after this.
33:46Welcome back, everyone.
34:00Hope you're enjoying the
34:00program this morning.
34:01Jim Ross back with you here
34:02on the Power Hour on TBS.
34:04Don't forget tonight now,
34:05World Championship Wrestling
34:06starts immediately following
34:08Southeast Conference football
34:10here on TBS.
34:12We probably will not start at
34:136.05, our normal time,
34:15but we'll be on right after
34:16Southeast Conference football
34:18here tonight on TBS.
34:20Now, in recent weeks, if
34:21you've been following our
34:22broadcast on WCW, you have
34:24seen several confrontations
34:26that Flyin' Brian Pillman
34:27has had with the York
34:29Foundation.
34:30Virtually every member of the
34:32York Foundation has attempted
34:33to injure Flyin' Brian prior
34:35to October 27th's Halloween
34:37Havoc event.
34:38As we know at Halloween
34:40Havoc, it will be Flyin' Brian
34:42and Richard Morton of the
34:43York Foundation going one-on-one
34:45to determine the first WCW
34:48World's Light Heavyweight Champion.
34:51We're going to see Flyin' Brian
34:52and Thomas Rich one-on-one in a
34:54moment, but right now, let's go
34:55back in time and see what has
34:57happened with Flyin' Brian and
34:58the York Foundation in recent
35:00weeks.
35:00Goodrich, Powerball, Pillman being
35:05destroyed here by all three members
35:07of the York Foundation.
35:08And Richard Morton's going up to
35:10the top rope.
35:11They've got him spread out there.
35:14And all right across the five.
35:17On the knee, they're trying to put
35:20this kid in the hospital.
35:22Spinning karate kick, great move by
35:25Flyin' Brian.
35:26He is perpetual offense.
35:27Thomas Rich needs to get back to the
35:30computer, and Flyin' Brian hits this.
35:33It'll be all over for Thomas Rich.
35:35There's Terrence Taylor came back.
35:37He handed him, what is that, the computer?
35:39Oh, gosh!
35:40Correct!
35:42One, two, three, he wins it.
35:44Ladies and gentlemen, here are your
35:46winners, Big Josh and Flyin' Brian!
35:51Hillman over the top, he may be hurt.
35:54Big Josh back in, and they're to
35:56greet him, the York Foundation and his
35:58own axe handle.
36:00What?
36:00Oh, they caught him right in the throat
36:01with the axe handle.
36:03Ladies and gentlemen, the following
36:04contest, it is set for one fall.
36:07Introducing first, accompanied by the
36:09executive director of the York Foundation,
36:13Alexandra York, from Atlanta, Georgia.
36:16Georgia, 218 pounds, Thomas Rich!
36:28Well, some interesting footage there
36:30from the last few weeks here on TBS.
36:33Flyin' Brian making his way to the ring
36:35momentarily.
36:35He's got a real short, sore shoulder.
36:39Excuse me, it's kind of hard to say that.
36:41But he's got a sore shoulder, and he's
36:44going to have to really gut it out here today.
36:45And ladies and gentlemen, his opponent
36:48from Cincinnati, Ohio, weighing 226 pounds.
36:54Welcome back to World Championship Wrestling,
36:57Flyin' Brian!
37:01Flyin' Brian will be at our broadcast tonight.
37:04I don't know if he's going to be wrestling
37:05or not.
37:07He signed this match against his doctor's
37:10orders.
37:11He's got a real problem with his shoulder,
37:14and the doctor has advised him
37:17to rest it when he could
37:19between now and October 27th.
37:23So his arena appearances will be limited,
37:26and his appearances here on television
37:28will be rather limited as well.
37:32Thomas Rich, the last man added to the
37:42York Foundation, if I'm not mistaken.
37:45Ryan Bryant, tremendous competitor.
37:58Always one of the smaller dogs in the fight.
38:06Walked on at Miami of Ohio, meaning he did not
38:09have a scholarship.
38:10Just tried out for the team.
38:12When he left Miami of Ohio with a college degree,
38:16he also left as the MVP of the football team
38:20and the football captain, along with being an All-American.
38:24Great offensive flurry here by Pillman.
38:32And he drop kicks Rich right outside.
38:35Fans, don't forget tonight, or tomorrow night, rather,
38:38that we'll be back on the air on AM 750 WSB
38:42at 9 o'clock tomorrow night to take your calls.
38:46We hope to have a special guest or two,
38:48either in the studio or by phone.
38:50That's on AM 750 WSB this Sunday night
38:55at 9 o'clock Eastern Time.
39:05York Foundation have seemingly had their sights set
39:09on the World Six-Man Tag Team Championship,
39:12and they're going to be involved in a six-man tag team match
39:16tonight with Flyin' Brian's mentor, so to speak.
39:22Mike Graham, Big Josh, and I believe it's beautiful Bobby
39:26tonight to take on the York Foundation.
39:28We've really got an outstanding broadcast.
39:31And remember, it follows Southeast Conference football
39:34here on TBS.
39:42Ms. York feverishly either inputting information
39:48or recalling it or something.
39:55Rich forcing Flyin' Brian back into the corner.
39:58Irish whip, but he put on the brakes there.
40:06Hip-block takeover.
40:09Lion Brian taking a chance.
40:11He slipped off the top rope there,
40:14going for a cross body.
40:16He may have damaged his knee there.
40:19He hopped up on the top rope, but he slipped off.
40:22And now Thomas Rich taking advantage
40:27of the situation.
40:30And Flyin' Brian in jeopardy.
40:32Lateral press and a near fall.
40:40All of us at WCW would like to congratulate
40:43the outstanding season
40:45by the Atlanta Braves.
40:49Everybody here very proud of those guys.
40:51Nice elevation.
40:55Good shot there.
40:57Flyin' Brian certainly wants to have more success
41:00October 27th as he wrestles
41:03for the WCW Light Heavyweight Championship
41:05that his Bengals are having.
41:07And a drop kick right off the top.
41:11Flyin' Brian, that drop kick.
