Transcript

00:00...back at Sunday's Halloween Havoc event.

00:02The world was excited about that one, and we'll tell you about it in the next 60 minutes.

00:06Also, Missy does the mail.

00:08We'll also see Dustin Rhodes take on Mr. Hughes.

00:10And Fly and Brian meet Stunning Steve this morning on TBS.

00:30The following contest, it is at bar one ball.

00:49Introducing first, the godfather of world championship wrestling, Theodore Arlong proudly presents.

00:57From Mekin, Georgia.

01:00Weighing 200 and 51 pounds, Johnny B. Badd.

01:07It's a cold hit from Chino, India.

01:10He's a bad man.

01:10219 pounds, Scott Sandlin.

01:17Johnny B. Badd and Theodore Arlong strutting their stuff here.

01:24One-on-one competition to kick off the power hour.

01:27And at the top of the program, we want to congratulate Fly and Brian Tillman on winning the WCW Light Heavyweight Championship this past Sunday at Halloween Havoc.

01:40I thought Halloween Havoc, by and large, was an outstanding wrestling program.

01:50Certainly want to congratulate the promoter, Bob Polk, and all the wonderful fans that attended the event this past Sunday at the UTC Arena there in Chattanooga.

02:01Johnny B. Badd will be, as far as we know, will be taking on Fly and Brian at the Clash of Champions.

02:16And the reason I say surprisingly is the fact that Johnny B. Badd is a little bit over the 236-pound maximum that an athlete can weigh to participate in that division.

02:41Now, throughout the program, I'm going to be updating you on what happened at Halloween Havoc.

02:49We're talking about the upcoming Clash of Champions also, so you picked a great morning to be with us.

02:54We think it'll be entertaining and informative for you.

02:56As Johnny B. Badd with a waist-lock takedown.

03:00Nicely done on Scott Sandlin.

03:01Johnny B. Badd with his left hand was really extended Sunday in his match against Jimmy Jam Garvin.

03:19Munich slam there.

03:21Front-face lock into a slam.

03:24He did defeat Jimmy Jam Garvin, but it was a match that could, quite frankly, have gone either way.

03:31Elbow to the chest, and Johnny B. Badd, very dominant.

03:49Offensively in this one.

03:55Standing drop kick, nice move by the rookie.

03:58The, probably the leading contender for WCW Rookie of the Year honors.

04:05I know that the WCW Magazine will be having some year-end awards.

04:11Outstanding publication on sale wherever you buy magazines.

04:16Also by subscription.

04:18And Johnny B. Badd has Scott Sandlin at his mercy.

04:22Oh, that left hook puts Mr. Sandlin out of his misery, so to speak.

04:32Here's your winner, Johnny B. Badd.

04:37We're going to hear some comments about Johnny B. Badd's upcoming matchup.

04:41With Flyin' Bryan at the Clash of Champions for the WCW Light Heavyweight Championship.

04:48That kiss that don't miss.

04:52He's so pretty.

04:53Yeah!

04:54The kiss that don't miss.

04:57You can bet, though, he will be all business.

04:59On Tuesday, November 19th, live, right here on TBS,

05:06Johnny B. Badd to challenge Flyin' Bryan for the WCW Light Heavyweight Championship.

05:16November 19th, live, Clash of the Champions, TBS.

05:20It's where it's going to all happen.

05:21It's where all the homies in the house are going to get a chance to see

05:24Johnny B. Badd become the new light heavyweight champion

05:27because he's going to take Bryan Pillman out.

05:29Now, Johnny B. Badd, I want you to warm up a little bit for me now.

05:32I want the people to look at you.

05:34I'm getting his weight down.

05:35I'm training him.

05:36I'm going to drop him down to about 235 pounds.

05:38Now, that's the weight you need to be encountered in, Johnny.

05:41That's the weight you got to be at to knock Bryan Pillman out

05:43and become the new light heavyweight champion.

05:45Johnny, why don't you say a little something to him about that pretty belt

05:48you're going to put around your waist?

05:48Oh, Huster, let me tell you one thing about Flyin' Bryan.

05:51After November 19th at the Clash,

05:53they're going to call him Cryin' Bryan

05:55because he's going to be dying after I hit him with my two-day fruity.

05:57That belt is going to look so pretty around my waist

06:00because I am the bad man.

06:02And let me say something else to you right now, everybody.

06:05November 19th, write it down.

06:07Live, Clash of the Champions, TBS,

06:09lightweight, heavyweight title on the line.

06:11Johnny B. Badd will be the winner.

06:12Oh, hush.

06:13Wrestling fans, the following contest,

06:28it is set for one fall.

06:30Introducing first, from Auburn, Alabama,

06:33he weighs 334 pounds,

06:37and he is the world's strongest human being,

06:42Bill Kazmaier.

06:46His opponent from Cheyenne, Wyoming,

06:49277 pounds,

06:51Mike Thorpe.

06:53Bill Kazmaier, ranked number 10 in the WCW Top 10.

07:02And Kazmaier,

07:04here on the TBS and the Power Hour,

07:07in a match that,

07:09quite frankly,

07:12he should win quite easily.

07:14Even with Kazmaier's limited experience,

07:16Kazmaier, a very strong individual,

07:18and it has surprised me

07:20that Kazmaier has signed to

07:22meet the WCW World's Heavyweight Champion,

07:25the total package Lex Luger,

07:27for the championship.

07:31I will make some comments about that

07:33regarding the championship committee

07:36and some of their antics

07:39on the wrestling hotline today.

07:43Plus, we'll talk about

07:44the Clash of Champions lineup.

07:47I'll have the entire lineup for you

07:48on the wrestling hotline today.

07:51And we'll also talk about

07:52the passing of a former NWA great.

07:56That and much more

07:57on the wrestling hotline

07:58until midnight tonight.

08:03Kazmaier, originally from Wisconsin,

08:06now resides in Auburn, Alabama.

08:09And I hope he stays out of the controversy

08:12that they are experiencing there

08:14with Coach Pat Dye and his cohorts.

08:20Clotheslined by the

08:22awesomely strong individual.

08:26He's quite raw in his wrestling talents.

08:29But his strength is certainly an equalizer

08:32in many matches like this one.

08:34Here's your winner,

08:36the world's strongest human being,

08:38Bill Kazmaier!

08:41He is without a doubt

08:53the strongest human being in the world

08:55and Bill Kazmaier has his sights set

08:57on the heavyweight championship of the world.

09:00Kazmaier is not the most polished wrestler

09:02in WCW,

09:04but without a doubt,

09:05he is the strongest.

09:06Another man that is extremely strong

09:08is the bodyguard of Lex Luger,

09:10Mr. Hughes.

09:11In just a few moments,

09:12I'll be sending it back to the ring.

09:14We're going to see Mr. Hughes

09:16in a one-on-one confrontation

09:17with the natural,

09:19Dustin Rhodes.

09:54on WCW

09:56at 6.05 Eastern Time.

09:57Ladies and gentlemen,

09:58his opponent.

10:00He will be accompanied

10:01to the ring

10:03of the world heavyweight champion,

10:05total package,

10:11from Kansas City.

10:13He weighs 375 pounds,

10:17Mr. Hughes!

10:21375 pounds,

10:24and he is all man,

10:26and as Gordon Sully would say,

10:27and a yard wide,

10:28at least a yard wide.

10:32Dustin Rhodes and Mr. Hughes

10:34getting it started early here.

10:38You can expect a lot of intensity

10:40in this one,

10:41and we'll see if Dustin

10:43can match up physically

10:44with this huge individual.

10:48Good arm drag takeover.

10:50Good move by Dustin there.

10:54Well, as we mentioned,

10:56they banged up Barry Windham

10:57from Halloween Havoc.

11:00More on that in the hour.

11:02Michael Hayes and Dustin here

11:03will take on the Enforcers

11:04and Stunning Steve

11:06in what should be

11:06an outstanding six-man event tonight.

11:09Also, Arachna Man will debut,

11:11and then you'll see

11:11beautiful Bobby

11:12take on Mr. Hughes here.

11:14Hughes not involved

11:23this past Sunday

11:24as he was sent back

11:26to the locker room

11:27in what was predetermined

11:30that he would remain

11:32in the locker room

11:32during the

11:33Lex Luger-Ron Simmons matchup.

11:35Power move there by Hughes.

11:42It'll be the right hand

11:43of the Alabama jammer

11:44beautiful Bobby tonight,

11:46and what a television broadcast

11:48we'll be bringing you.

11:50Hope you'll tune in

11:51here on TBS tonight.

11:54And this Hughes

11:54is quite an athlete,

11:56and according to what I've

11:57conversations I've had

11:59with race in recent days,

12:02Mr. Hughes will be wrestling

12:05a more active schedule.

12:08It is thought that

12:09under many circumstances,

12:12Luger doesn't need

12:13a bodyguard at ringside.

12:16Dustin Rhodes now back up.

12:20He's hitting Hughes

12:21with everything he's got,

12:23but the big man still

12:24is in an upright position

12:27until now.

12:28A good wrestling move

12:30got him down.

12:33High elevation.

12:35That's 375

12:37sailing through the air.

12:43And a clothesline.

12:45That lariat really nailed him.

12:47And just like his dad,

12:49there's no love lost

12:50between Dustin Rhodes

12:51and Harley Race.

12:54And the referee doing here.

12:58He was trying to separate him,

13:00but from behind

13:01comes Hughes.

13:05And, oh, my gosh!

13:07He just ran this kid.

13:09I couldn't tell

13:10if it was face first

13:11or shoulder first

13:12into the ring post.

13:16There, this may be

13:18a count out here.

13:19There's Barry Windham out

13:20to check on the natural.

13:22Remember, they'll be

13:26partners tonight.

13:28But Dustin is out of it.

13:36What's the official word?

13:43Hughes wins it

13:43by a count out.

13:46Dustin Rhodes

13:47has been defeated

13:47by a count out

13:48and will be back.

13:50He's bleeding.

15:10to be around,

15:11an outstanding athlete,

15:13really agile

15:14for a 400-pounder,

15:16this wrapping goes,

15:17I wouldn't quit

15:18my day job.

15:20And I'm not an authority

15:21on wrapping,

15:22don't get me wrong,

15:23and I enjoy it,

15:24but enough said

15:27about the wrapping.

15:30Interesting move there

15:31by the 403-pounder,

15:33and we saw

15:36Big Van Vader

15:37in the Chamber of Horrors

15:39this past Sunday

15:41at the Halloween Havoc

15:42pay-per-view event,

15:44and I know that

15:46Big Van Vader

15:50in a one-on-one matchup.

15:52We'll keep you informed

15:53as to the whereabouts

15:56of that event.

15:56Should be an outstanding match.

15:58Van Vader weighed

15:59$3.99 Sunday.

16:01PN News

16:02is at least

16:03$4.03.

16:05And that should be

16:52and fans get ready

16:53for a special look

16:54at his future opponent,

16:56Big Van Vader.

16:57I find you

17:03what?

17:05Hey, baby!

17:05And we love you.

17:07I wonder,

17:07but what is it?

17:07Do you think the next

17:07I wanted you

17:09into the jeu?

17:09I know how

17:10that's going too

17:12why,

17:13that's my big

17:15money.

17:16How about that?

17:17All right!

17:22Oh, baby!

22:40Addition, female addition to his organization.

22:44He says that she is, without a doubt, the first lady of WCW.

22:50And in no way, Bandy's fighting right back.

22:54There's Dennis Quint, the editor of WCW Magazine.

22:58He's getting some up-close shots there.

23:03Bandy and Medusa developing quite a rivalry here at WCW.

23:10And as we mentioned, Medusa now has aligned herself with Paul E. dangerously.

23:16Well, Medusa's not going to just walk on Bandy, I can tell you.

23:19Good bulldog headlock there.

23:22And watch her hook the leg, very fundamentally sound.

23:26She gets the one, two, three.

23:28And then, unannounced, here comes Medusa.

23:32And Medusa got rid of Leilani Kive and turned her focus to Bandy.

23:37What a combination.

23:41Medusa and ravishing Rick Rude with Paul E. dangerously.

23:45Who will he add to that stable next?

23:48Only time will tell.

23:49There you see Bandy coming back.

23:58Dennis Brent almost sitting in the lap of Gary Michael Capetta.

24:01What a cute couple they make.

24:03Fans still to come in the broadcast.

24:07Heavy metal Van Hammer.

24:09Cactus jacket, Abdul the Butcher in tag team action.

24:12And the new light heavyweight champion, Flying Bryant,

24:16to take on the TV champion, Stunning Steve Austin.

24:18That, plus Missy does the mail when we come back this morning here on the Power Hour.

24:24The following contest, it is at 4-1 call.

24:48Introducing first, from New York City, weighing 290 pounds, heavy metal, Ben Hammer.

25:03His opponent from Chattanooga, Tennessee, 280 pounds, Paul E.

25:07Heavy metal, Ben Hammer, 6-5, 295, from New York City.

25:36A very raw rookie, but with great potential here in World Championship Wrestling.

25:50Brings a lot of sizzle to the ring.

25:59And don't forget, tomorrow night on AM 750 WSB,

26:02I'll be taking your calls at 9 o'clock Eastern Time.

26:05We'll talk about Halloween Havoc.

26:09Talk about Paul E. Dangerously ravishing Rick Root and Medusa being together.

26:14We'll focus on the Luger-Simmons championship match,

26:20or whatever else you care to talk about in WCW,

26:23tomorrow night on AM 750 WSB.

26:25Van Hammer has a great deal of power, and as we said, a phenomenal potential.

26:35But he has a tall order ahead of him on live national television here on TBS,

26:41Tuesday, November the 19th.

26:42At the clash from Savannah, he will meet Cactus Jack.

26:49And Cactus Jack seems to really rise to the occasion in these big match scenarios,

26:55much like he did at Halloween Havoc.

27:00Boy, what a gruesome match that was.

27:05Talked to a lot of fans.

27:07You either loved it or you hated it.

27:11Very bizarre indeed.

27:13And if you miss it, I'm sure it'll be available on home video

27:17from Turner Home Entertainment in the next few weeks.

27:23They're really into heavy metal Van Hammer here.

27:26Slingshot Suplex.

27:27Man, this was an easy one for him.

27:32The winner, heavy metal Van Hammer!

27:38We're going to see Abdul the Butcher and Cactus Jack at tag team competition.

27:46But before that, we want to hear some comments from Cactus Jack

27:50regarding the classic champions and the Hammerheads,

27:54the fans of heavy metal Van Hammer up in arms here.

28:00The charismatic king of the headbangers ball.

28:05Hammer hysteria is in WCW,

28:09but it could be dashed out at the classic champions

28:12by this man, Cactus Jack.

28:16November 19th, Van Hammer.

28:26It's me and you.

28:27Remember me?

28:29I'm Cactus Jack.

28:30And I was embarrassed!

28:33On national TV, on WCBS.

28:36Cactus Jack was embarrassed once when he was a child.

28:40Once!

28:41That's all it took.

28:42That's all it took.

28:43And now on live TV, Van Hammer, do you think

28:46I'll let the same thing happen again?

28:49You thought wrong, pal.

28:51Bring your guitar, have your explosives,

28:54and then get ready to face me in the ring.

28:56Because the fans have been waiting for this for a long time.

28:59The two ugliest men in wrestling.

29:02Head on!

29:03One to one!

29:04Now, I know all you little 12-year-old girls

29:07and all you little boys

29:08are sitting at home saying,

29:10but that's impossible, Jack.

29:11That's impossible.

29:13Van Hammer's not ugly.

29:14Well, following the classic champions,

29:17he will be.

29:18Bang, bang!

29:21The following tag team event,

29:23it is set for one fall.

29:25Introducing team number one,

29:27first from truth or consequences,

29:29New Mexico weighing 287 pounds,

29:34Cactus Jack.

29:36And from the Sudan,

29:38weighing 460 pounds,

29:41Abdullah Wowo.

29:43Abdullah Wowo,

29:45better known as Abdullah the Butcher.

29:47And Cactus Jack assaulting both men right now.

29:50For all you long-time members

29:56of the Abdullah the Butcher fan club,

29:58Abdullah is just fine

29:59since a Halloween Havoc shocking experience for him.

30:03Lost a little blood.

30:05Got a new scar or two on that forehead of his,

30:08but I don't think he cares.

30:09So you can rest at ease now

30:11as he runs right through his opponent here,

30:14the Butcher 460.

30:17And, you know, we still,

30:19it's almost been put on the back burner.

30:20I know Sting's still aware of it.

30:23We know that Abdullah and Cactus

30:25still have Sting in their sights.

30:29But we still do not know who's paying them.

30:36Cactus Jack,

30:38I'm sure we'll be watching WCW

30:40later today

30:42because Sting

30:43will take on Oz

30:46on WCW Saturday night.

30:50I don't know how many stitches Cactus needed

30:59after the Chamber of Horrors match.

31:02And, man, he lost,

31:03as Gordon would say,

31:05the clearance was flowing.

31:07Indeed.

31:12Abdullah and Cactus make up

31:14a team that,

31:17quite frankly,

31:18I think would even challenge

31:19the world champions.

31:21Could severely challenge a team

31:23like the Steiner brothers.

31:24Abdullah.

31:28Abdullah.

31:30Here he comes.

31:32He drops the elbow.

31:33There was a

31:34double-armed DDT

31:36stereo mayhem here.

31:37winners,

31:38the team of

31:39Pactus Jack

31:40and Abdullah

31:41the Butcher.

31:45And here comes the kendo stick,

31:47and this is

31:48something that Sting

31:50knows a lot about.

31:52And their war

31:53has not ended.

31:56Man!

31:58The

31:58brutality

32:00of these two

32:02is really beyond

32:02compared.

32:07These two

32:08very bizarre

32:09individuals.

32:13A little bit weird,

32:15to say the least.

32:17We'll take another look at it.

32:20Fans,

32:20don't forget now,

32:21tonight on WCW,

32:23Barry Windham,

32:24who's really banged up.

32:26Michael Hayes

32:27and Dustin Rose

32:27to meet the Enforcers

32:28and Stunning Steve.

32:32Arachnaman

32:32will debut tonight.

32:34And beautiful

32:35Bobby meets

32:36Mr. Hughes.

32:37More on that

32:37after this.

32:38Time out.

32:50Welcome back

32:51to the Power Hour.

32:52I'm Missy Hyatt,

32:53and this is

32:54Missy Does the Mail.

32:55This week,

32:56my focus is on

32:56an ugly duckling

32:57who seems to be

32:59very confused.

33:00I'm referring to

33:01Medusa.

33:02She is without a doubt

33:03one of the toughest

33:04female athletes

33:05in the world.

33:06But she doesn't seem

33:07to be very smart.

33:09Recently,

33:10on World Championship Wrestling,

33:11Medusa spoke to

33:12Jim Ross

33:13about her reason

33:14for being

33:15in WCW.

33:17After you hear

33:17the tomboy statement,

33:20I'll have some comments

33:21to make.

33:21I must say that

33:22your actions

33:23the last couple

33:23of weeks here

33:24on TBS

33:24have been

33:25very unpredictable,

33:26and I know

33:27that the fans

33:28are wondering

33:28what is your

33:29objectives here

33:30in World Championship

33:31Wrestling?

33:33Motivation?

33:34Mr. Ross,

33:34I have respect

33:36for you.

33:37Just shush up

33:37one minute.

33:38I am

33:39the first lady

33:40of WCW.

33:42In fact,

33:43I am

33:44professional wrestling.

33:46If that means

33:46I have to demolish

33:48every valet,

33:50Miss Blossom,

33:51if that means

33:52I have to demolish

33:53every valet

33:54and every manager,

33:57Miss York,

33:57and every wannabe,

33:59Miss Commentator,

34:00Miss Missy Hyatt,

34:02I will invent some.

34:03If that means

34:04I will kick some ass!

34:08Well,

34:08I think you

34:09got the drift.

34:10She wants to be

34:11the first lady

34:12of World Championship

34:13Wrestling.

34:15I'm not going

34:15to argue with her.

34:17She has a lot

34:18of nerve

34:19proclaiming herself

34:20to be the first lady

34:22of World Championship

34:23Wrestling.

34:24Everyone knows

34:25that I am

34:26WCW's only

34:27female star,

34:29and that's the way

34:30it will always be.

34:32After what I saw

34:33at Halloween Havoc,

34:34she seems to be

34:35now affiliated

34:36with Paul E.

34:38Dangerously.

34:39Well,

34:39Paul E.

34:40better warn her

34:41that I don't

34:42intend to be

34:43intimidated

34:43by that witch.

34:46I know how

34:46to handle

34:47people like her,

34:48so she better

34:49leave me alone.

34:51And I'm Missy Hyatt,

34:52WCW's

34:53real first lady,

34:55and this has been

34:56Missy Does the Mail.

34:57Welcome back,

35:10everyone,

35:10to TBS and the Power Hour.

35:11Thanks very much

35:12for being with us.

35:13In just a few moments,

35:14we'll see a match

35:14taped a few weeks ago

35:15involving Flyin' Brian

35:17and Stunning Steve Austin.

35:18But at Halloween Havoc,

35:19Stunning Steve,

35:20in a tremendous matchup,

35:22retained the World

35:23Television Championship

35:24against Dustin Rhodes.

35:25At the Clash of Champions

35:26here on TBS on Tuesday,

35:28November the 19th,

35:30Stunning Steve will be

35:31faced by the man

35:32from Huntsville, Alabama,

35:33beautiful Bobby Eaton.

35:35Let's hear now

35:35Stunning Steve's comments

35:37about that match.

35:38Lady Blossom here.

35:40Beautiful Bobby Eaton.

35:42Now let's just stop

35:44right there.

35:45Beautiful is what I am.

35:47But of course,

35:48you already knew that

35:50because,

35:51well,

35:51it's quite obvious.

35:52Now my man,

35:54Stunning Steve Austin,

35:55walks straight into WCW,

35:57takes the World

35:58Television Champion.

36:00What on earth

36:01gives you any idea,

36:02Bobby Eaton,

36:04that you have any chance

36:05to get that back?

36:07You know,

36:07beautiful Bobby,

36:09I went in front of the world

36:10in saying that I would

36:11take the World Television

36:12Championship from you

36:13as soon as I stepped

36:14into the ring with you.

36:15And you know,

36:16Bobby,

36:16that's just the way

36:17I turned out.

36:18I stepped into the ring

36:19with you

36:19and dominated you

36:20from start to finish.

36:22and then ended up

36:23beating you fair and square

36:24in the middle of the ring.

36:25So,

36:26at the Clash of Champions

36:27on November 19th,

36:29on TBS,

36:30what makes you think

36:31the result this time

36:32is going to be any different?

36:33It's going to be

36:34the same, baby.

36:35One,

36:35two,

36:36three.

36:38Ladies and gentlemen,

36:39the following contest,

36:41it is for the WCW

36:43World Television

36:45Championship.

36:46It is set for one fall

36:48with a 15-minute

36:50time limit.

36:51Introducing first

36:52the challenger

36:53from Cincinnati,

36:55Ohio,

36:56weighing 227 pounds,

37:00Flying Brian.

37:04Fans,

37:04as I mentioned,

37:04this match take

37:05before Halloween.

37:06If you're looking at

37:07the new WCW

37:08Light Heavyweight Champion,

37:09Flying Brian Pillman.

37:11Our congratulations

37:11to the Cincinnati kids.

37:14And wrestling fans,

37:15his opponent.

37:17He is accompanied

37:17to the ring by

37:18Lady Blossom

37:20from Hollywood,

37:21California.

37:23Weighing 253 pounds,

37:26he is the WCW

37:28World Television

37:30Champion,

37:32Stunning Steve Austin.

37:40Stunning Steve,

37:41as I mentioned earlier,

37:44and Dustin Rhodes

37:46battled to a time limit

37:48draw at Halloween Havoc

37:51in a very physical

37:52and a very bloody

37:53matchup.

37:56Lady Blossom

37:58had minimal involvement

38:00in that contest,

38:01actually.

38:02And it was

38:02really a terrific

38:03wrestling encounter.

38:06Austin ranked

38:13as high as he has

38:15ever been ranked

38:16right now

38:16in the top 10 rankings.

38:18We'll have the entire

38:19top 10 for you tonight,

38:20but I can give you

38:21a preview.

38:22Austin is ranked

38:23number two this week.

38:30As you watch this match,

38:32I've just been handed

38:33a note

38:33regarding from one

38:36of our producers,

38:37Austin coming off

38:38the top,

38:39there has been

38:39an altercation

38:40between Lex Luger

38:45and Rick Steiner

38:46with some very

38:49shocking results.

38:51And we don't have

38:53all the details

38:54on that,

38:55but I know

38:56our colleague

38:56Eric Bischoff

38:57is working on it.

39:00Eric will be

39:01the host

39:02of a new feature

39:03beginning today

39:04on WCW

39:05called WCW

39:07Magazine.

39:08So hopefully

39:09Eric will have

39:10something on

39:11the Rick Steiner

39:11Lex Luger

39:12incident

39:15for us tonight

39:17on WCW.

39:20These are two

39:21of the

39:21more highly skilled

39:23athletes in

39:24world championship

39:24wrestling.

39:25There's a lateral

39:25press.

39:27Both these men

39:27men are young.

39:31Their best years

39:32are ahead of them

39:33and I think

39:35that's what

39:35WCW is trying

39:36to build on

39:37right now

39:37is a very

39:38youthful foundation.

39:41Great move

39:42there by Pillman.

39:47Terrific move.

39:48We know that

39:49the great

39:49Japanese star

39:50Shushin Liger

39:51will be in the

39:53United States

39:53for WCW

39:55in December.

39:57And there's a

39:57stun gun

39:58to challenge

40:02for the light

40:03heavyweight

40:03championship.

40:05Austin unable

40:05to follow up

40:06after the

40:07stun gun.

40:07And now

40:17he's got him

40:19wrapped up

40:20in a crucifix

40:22and almost

40:23had him there.

40:28Cross body

40:29press.

40:30He draped

40:31behind the

40:31leg.

40:32Austin's

40:32rolled through

40:33it.

40:35And good

40:35call by the

40:36referee.

40:37Nick Patrick

40:42Halloween

40:42Havoc.

40:43Unique

40:45Made me

40:46kind of

40:46dizzy.

40:47Or more

40:47dizzier than

40:48normal I

40:48guess.

40:51Oh he's

40:53going right

40:53over the

40:54top.

40:54And that's

40:55a disqualification.

40:57And man that

40:57exact call had

40:58a lot to do

40:59with the outcome

41:00of the world's

41:01heavyweight

41:02championship

41:02match.
