00:00Good morning, and welcome to TBS and the Power Hour.
00:04This morning, we'll focus on this Tuesday's Class of Champions event.
00:07We'll take a look at the Lex Luger-Rick Steiner situation,
00:10and we'll also hear comments from Sting and from Ravishing Rick Rude and Pauly Dangerously.
00:15Plus, beautiful Bobby takes on Johnny B. Badd this morning on the Power Hour.
00:30The following Submit or Surrender contest, it is at 4-1 ball.
00:55Introducing first, the Godfather of World Championship Wrestling,
01:00the NRR long, worldly pre-assents from Megan, Georgia,
01:05weighing 200 and 51 pounds, Johnny B. Badd.
01:13His opponent from Huntsville, Alabama, 233 pounds, beautiful Bobby.
01:24Now, ladies and gentlemen, the special stipulations for this match.
01:31The only way a man can win is if his opponent submits, surrenders,
01:38or if the opponent is unable to answer the 10 pounds.
01:4310 balls will not count.
01:45Gary Michael Cappetta giving us the special stipulations of this contest.
01:54We want to thank Worldwide Wrestling for this great one-on-one matchup.
02:02Very unique stipulations, as you heard, Submit or Surrender.
02:07Winning pinfalls will not be very important at all in this one.
02:19Johnny B. Badd and Peanuthead, along with Diamond Stud,
02:23tonight on WCW, will be taking on
02:26Lion, Brian, and Mike Graham in a five-man tag team event.
02:37Peanuthead has made quite a pest of himself the last couple of weeks with Mike Graham.
02:43And so tonight, the promoters have signed a five-man tag team event.
02:47And we'll see Peanuthead there in wrestling attire.
02:54Of course, Johnny B. Badd has a big matchup Tuesday night at the Clash of Champions,
02:59as he will take on Clyde and Brian for the WCW Light Heavyweight Championship.
03:09I'm a bad man!
03:10I'm a bad man!
03:12Johnny B. Badd's left hook
03:14pitted against the right hand of beautiful Bobby Eaton.
03:21And both these athletes are
03:22rather unique in that
03:25in some arenas, you will
03:27see them cheered,
03:29and in some arenas, you will see them
03:31booed.
03:32They are very popular in some parts of the country
03:36and unpopular in others.
03:38And this is a very competitive situation.
03:42I feel that because this match
03:45being taped in Alabama
03:49Everybody get ready for Johnny B. Badd
03:51because he's a bad man
03:53and the Tutti Frutti is waiting on beautiful Bobby.
03:56Thank you very much, Peanuthead.
04:00That's stirring orientation here this morning.
04:04But because of this match taped in Alabama,
04:06you've got to think that beautiful Bobby will be the fan favorite in this one.
04:12And beautiful Bobby nailed that body punch.
04:17Good arm drag takeover.
04:23Well, there's no doubt that Eaton has developed a much higher level of wrestling skill,
04:31in my opinion, than Johnny B. Badd.
04:34Now, we must take into consideration that Johnny B. Badd's only a rookie.
04:40And he has progressed quite nicely here in 1991.
04:45There's an arm bar applied to beautiful Bobby.
04:48Nice wide base by Johnny B. Badd.
04:50Look at that.
05:00Reversal.
05:04Quick movement here.
05:05And there's the right hand.
05:07And there it is again.
05:08And a closed line.
05:09Three high-impact moves by beautiful Bobby.
05:18Dennis Brandt here covering the event for WCW Magazine.
05:24It's on the newsstands around the country with Sting on the cover.
05:27And it is without a doubt the greatest wrestling publication available on the newsstands.
05:34It is just tremendous.
05:39Come on, you can beat him any time, all right?
05:42Any time, man.
05:42Come on, get back in there.
05:43Watch this out.
05:44Watch this out.
05:45It's going to take more than just saying you're a bad man for beautiful Bobby
05:50to respect an individual as an athlete.
05:57Side headlock.
06:02Side headlock.
06:03There you see Johnny B. Badd continuing to talk,
06:06trying to intimidate beautiful Bobby.
06:07Nice drop, toe hold.
06:10Into a hammerlock.
06:11And watch beautiful Bobby use that knee on the arm.
06:15And I think more importantly, it is the left arm of Johnny B. Badd.
06:21And as we have documented here,
06:24his left hook is perhaps his best offensive weapon.
06:28Referee Mike Atkins down in good position to see if Johnny B. Badd wants to submit to the hammerlock.
06:45Uh-oh, over the top.
06:53And what do we have there?
06:54It's a judgment call.
06:56And this is just exactly the same basic situation that occurred when Luger met Ron Simmons at Halloween Havoc during that controversial second fall.
07:09But in referee Mike Atkins' judgment, what we just saw was not a disqualification.
07:18And quite frankly, it looked more like a disqualification than what we saw at Halloween Havoc between Simmons and Luger.
07:27It's easy for all of us to sit out here and second-guess everything that goes on.
07:38Especially when it comes to the officiating.
07:40Wrestling fans are just as avid as any other sports fan.
07:49When it comes to Monday morning quarterbacking,
07:59wrestling fans are just as adamant as anyone else.
08:05And in my Monday morning quarterbacking on that call,
08:10I think I would have had a disqualification.
08:12There's a good left hand.
08:14Followed by some savage kicks there by Johnny B. Badd.
08:19And now he has
08:21drawn caution to the wind, shall we say.
08:27And is really opening it up here on beautiful Bobby.
08:35Working on the body.
08:42And beautiful Bobby came in, got kicked.
08:45And then nailed with a clothesline.
08:49Johnny B. Badd now will take a chance.
08:52This shades of beautiful Bobby now.
08:55Up on top.
08:57Sunset flip.
08:58Can he execute it?
08:59He got a nail.
09:00I mean nailed that right hand.
09:03High-risk move.
09:04He executed the sunset flip,
09:07but he got popped for his efforts.
09:09Inside cradle now.
09:11No pinfalls.
09:12No pinfalls.
09:13No pinfalls here.
09:18Remember, this is submit or surrender.
09:21But just out of instinct,
09:22beautiful Bobby went for that pin.
09:24You know, I guess I should really stand corrected.
09:35Uh-oh.
09:36Eaton hip-locked right out here on the floor.
09:38My goodness.
09:41I have been informed,
09:42and I will apologize,
09:44that this submit or surrender match
09:47has no disqualifications.
09:48So, my apologies to the referee.
10:01The only way this match can be won
10:03is by submission or surrender
10:07or failing to answer a 10-count.
10:09Clothesline right on the apron.
10:13And now Johnny B. Badd
10:14is showing the offensive spark
10:17that he has become known for.
10:22Elbow caught him in the face.
10:24Good veteran move by beautiful Bobby.
10:26What a right.
10:27Tremendous elevation with that backdrop.
10:40Another Irish whip to the center of the ropes.
10:44Beautiful Bobby brings him straight down
10:46in the backbreaker.
10:52Peanut head.
10:54Rather adamant at ringside,
10:56and I'm sure we'll see more of that
10:57later today on WCW.
11:01Two-hour broadcast begins at 6 here on TBS.
11:08Johnny B. Badd now.
11:10Climbing the ladder.
11:11Going up top.
11:12High-risk move.
11:14There's a yellow bone.
11:15He caught him.
11:20A regular match.
11:23May have brought him the three-count there,
11:25but it's submission or surrender.
11:27And now Johnny B. Badd working with a reverse chin lock
11:30and a modified camel clutch momentarily.
11:33Comes back with the right hand this time.
11:36And beautiful Bobby snaps off that neckbreaker.
11:39Man, this is the intense type of competition the fans in Atlanta will see.
11:47Thanksgiving night in the Omni.
11:49And beautiful Bobby with a high-risk move.
11:52That was halfway across the ring.
11:55Dropped the elbow.
11:55Referee started his 10-count.
12:05Both men tried the simultaneous offensive moves,
12:10and I think their heads popped together.
12:14Both are down.
12:17Referee now can utilize the 10-count.
12:20And ladies and gentlemen,
12:25the referee has just indicated
12:26that neither man fails to regain his feet by the 10-count.
12:31The first man to his feet will be the winner!
12:35Well, Peanuthead in there trying to give his man an advantage.
12:44Beautiful Bobby crawling toward the PN News.
12:48Or, excuse me,
12:48Johnny B. Badd was up!
12:51Long's going to cost his man the victory.
12:53Beautiful Bobby got it!
12:55And ladies and gentlemen,
12:57here's your winner,
12:59beautiful Bobby!
13:01Fans, as we said,
13:03Flyin' Brian takes on Johnny B. Badd at The Clash.

14:03one champion
14:03and that's Johnny B. Badd.
14:06One, two, go!
14:08Here we go!
14:09Here we go!
14:10Here we go!
14:10Here we go!
14:11Here we go!
14:11Here we go!
14:17It is set for one fall.
14:19Introducing first,
14:20accompanied by Lady Blossom
14:22from Hollywood, California,
14:24Weighing 253 pounds, the WCW World Television Champion, stunning, Steve Austin.
14:38His opponent from Seattle, Washington, 248 pounds, John Peterson.
14:46Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, this morning to the Power Hour.
14:49Jim Ross back with you. Thanks for being with us here this morning.
14:51Don't forget tonight on WCW, it will be PN News and the Z-Man checking on Big Van Bader and this man, Stunning Steve Austin.
15:04Great tag team event later today, 6 o'clock Eastern Time.
15:10Two-hour broadcast here on TBS of our flagship program, WCW Saturday Night.
15:17Front face lock by Stunning Steve Austin.
15:22A lot of rumors circulating regarding the mouth that roared Paul E. Dangerously and his negotiations with several wrestlers here in WCW
15:33and wrestlers out of WCW about adding to his dangerous alliance.
15:41And Austin's name has surfaced a couple of times in my investigation into that situation.
15:49Step over toehold applied by the reigning television champion of the world.
15:58Come on, Timber.
15:59Come on, Timber.
16:00Come on, Timber.
16:00Come on, Timber.
16:01Come on, Timber.
16:02Come on, Timber.
16:03Come on, Timber.
16:04Come on, Timber.
16:05Come on, Timber.
16:06Come on, Timber.
16:07With Medusa in Paul's dangerous alliance, I'm not so sure that Lady Blossom's future would look very bright
16:16if Stunning Steve became associated with Dangerously.
16:30Succession of nightmares, a clinic being demonstrated by the arrogant television champion
16:36who will beat PN News for the television title at the Clash of Champions live here on TBS this Tuesday night.
16:45And if you remember, about three weeks ago, maybe four weeks ago here on WCW,
16:54PN News was about to upset that man for the television championship
16:58when Austin secured an illegal object and knocked the big Ratmaster cold.
17:06So that rematch will be Tuesday, one-on-one, but they'll have a introductory situation
17:14this beautiful day on WCW in that tag team match we mentioned.
17:23I think Austin is a real franchise player, and if I were Paul Lee, he would be a very high
17:32recruiting priority.
17:37Come on.
17:39One, two, three, four.
17:41And he had him pinned there.
17:43That's a big pet peeve of mine.
17:45And I just don't think it's real smart.
17:49I've seen guys that fail to pin someone because of this arrogance and then end up losing the match.
18:00I'm certainly not alluding to that fact here with Mr. Peterson, Austin's opponent,
18:06but against a higher-skilled athlete, it certainly could happen.
18:20Power slam by Austin.
18:22Another lateral press.
18:23Let's see if it gets him this time.
18:24Well, Peterson's foot in the rope.
18:25Certainly had a great crowd this past Monday at our taping at Center Stage,
18:33and we'll be returning to Center Stage this Wednesday night, November 20th at 7.
18:41And again, Austin failed to fully execute the cover.
18:45Senior referee Nick Patrick, I'm sure, is as upset about this situation as I am.
18:53I just...
18:55Total display of arrogance and unsportsmanlike conduct.
19:03Austin Waistlock, hot shot.
19:06Like maneuver, he calls a stun gun.
19:09One, two, three.
19:11And it is very effective.
19:12The winner of the match, the world television champion, stunning Steve Austin.
19:18Welcome back, everyone, to TBS and the Power Hour.
19:25Jim Ross with you.
19:26Still to come, some tremendous action and some very unique comments
19:29from the United States heavyweight champion, Sting,
19:31and from ravishing Rick Rude and his new manager, Pauly Dangerously.
19:35But in this segment, our focus will be on the world's heavyweight championship.
19:39This Tuesday night, the Clash of Champions,
19:41it will be Lex Luger defending against Rick Steiner.
19:44Let's go back in time via videotape and take a look at that altercation
19:48that shocked the world, especially the world's champion.
19:56Into the corner.
19:58Reversal.
20:01Good money job.
20:05Steiner going in and Luger waiting on him.
20:09Tremendous move by the champion.
20:11Sending Steiner to the other side.
20:12Nobody hug.
20:14Oh, what power from Steiner.
20:23And this impromptu matchup you're watching here on Worldwide.
20:31Mr. Hughes.
20:35Harley Race.
20:40With the vertical suplex.
20:42With that belly-to-belly suplex,
20:54Rick Steiner proved to all of us
20:56that he can defeat Lex Luger.
20:58Whether he'll do that this Tuesday night or not
21:00remains to be seen because Luger
21:02seems to be a very desperate man.
21:05Rick Steiner had signed a contract
21:07to take on Mr. Hughes, Lex Luger's bodyguard.
21:09I want to show you the closing moments of that contest
21:12because the world's heavyweight champion made an appearance.
21:15But so did Scott Steiner.
21:17Let's go back in time, courtesy of World Championship Wrestling,
21:20and show you what happened.
21:21A problem for him after being kicked by a race.
21:25Of course, those bear hubs squeezing him.
21:28And he's going to go for it again.
21:30Steiner got him, and he got him up and over.
21:33Oh, what a belly-to-belly suplex.
21:34One, two, three, he pinned him.
21:37Just like he did Luger.
21:38And then a race is in.
21:39And Steiner is ready to fight.
21:41Right hands on race.
21:44He scoops him up and slams down the advisor.
21:47He scoops him up again, but here's Luger.
21:52And Luger with a clothesline from behind.
21:56Luger knows he must face this man one-on-one
21:59for the World's Heavyweight Championship.
22:01He wants to sniff out that challenge right now.
22:04And there's Scott Steiner.
22:06Scott Steiner back here.
22:09Scott Steiner coming to the aid of his brother.
22:11Oh, what a confrontation it will be
22:17for WCW's richest prize.
22:21I think by those two pieces of videotape
22:23that Lex Luger is certainly concerned
22:26about this Tuesday's live broadcast
22:28on primetime television
22:30here on TBS for the World's Heavyweight Championship.
22:33In just a few moments,
22:34we're going to show you the complete lineup
22:36of the Clash of Champions.
22:38But before we do,
22:39I'd like for you to hear some pre-recorded comments
22:42made just a day or two ago
22:44by the heavyweight champion of the world,
22:46the total package Lex Luger.
22:48Let's hear now from the champion.
22:50Rick Steiner, this coming Tuesday
22:52at the Clash,
22:54you're going to pay, buddy,
22:56and pay dearly
22:57for putting your hands on me
22:59and trying to intimidate
23:01and embarrass that total package.
23:04What it comes down to
23:05is retribution time
23:07for the world's heavyweight champion,
23:09the total package Lex Luger.
23:11But this time, Rick Steiner,
23:12it's not in shoes and a suit.
23:15This time it's boots and wrestling tights
23:17in front of millions of viewers.
23:19You see, we planned it this way,
23:21the largest viewing audience possible
23:22to see that Lex Luger
23:24always gets the final word.
23:26That's why I am who I am.
23:28That's why I dominate professional wrestling
23:30like no other athlete.
23:31That's why I can't be touched
23:33in world championship wrestling.
23:34That's why I'm the world heavyweight champion.
23:37Rick Steiner,
23:38with all the positive attributes you have,
23:40you've got to realize,
23:41and you're going to find out firsthand
23:42in front of everybody
23:43that I cannot be beaten.
23:47You can't touch this.

26:29six-man tag team champions,
26:31Thomas Rich.
26:33And a little bit later
26:34here this morning,
26:35when Miss Sunshine herself
26:38comes along,
26:39Missy does the mail.
26:41She will focus on that.
26:42She and Alexandra York
26:44are quite good friends.
26:45They have had many
26:49power lunches together.
26:54And they will,
26:56Missy will,
26:56as a matter of fact,
26:57address the York Foundation
26:59winning the six-man
27:00tag team championship.
27:03Good shoulder blocks
27:04by Thomas Rich.
27:05Great leaping ability
27:07by Arachna Man.
27:10Hip-block takeover.
27:11Nice move.
27:12And caught him
27:12with a drop kick.
27:15And another drop kick.
27:17And Thomas Rich,
27:19the veteran,
27:20having a little difficulty
27:22getting untracked here.
27:26Certainly hope you fans
27:27will call the wrestling
27:28hotline today.
27:29I'll be giving you
27:31my predictions
27:31and injury updates
27:33on this Tuesday's
27:34Clash of Champions event.
27:36We've got some guys
27:37really banged up,
27:38including Ron Simmons,
27:39Barry Windham,
27:40and Scott Steiner.
27:42I'll tell you about
27:44their situations.
27:46We'll also give you
27:48a little more information
27:48on Paul E.
27:52Dangerously's negotiations.
27:54That on the wrestling
27:55hotline today.
28:01And speaking of the hotline,
28:04I know that Lance Russell
28:05and Gordon Soley
28:06will be covering
28:06the wrestling hotline,
28:08on the wrestling hotline,
28:10and the Clash of Champions.
28:11Big preview show

28:13They hope to have
28:14the Steiner brothers
28:15on at 8.05 Eastern
28:17for 20 or 25 minutes
28:19on Tuesday.
28:21So a lot of things
28:22going on on the hotline
28:23beginning today
28:25with the Ross report.
28:26Hope to give us a call.
28:28Rich with the forearm
28:39on the ropes.
28:41Nails now
28:42racking the man
28:42with the elbow.
28:45Head and shoulder fake.
28:46Nice move.
28:47This guy takes
28:48a lot of chances.
28:49And quite frankly,
28:50they normally pay off.
28:51There's a lateral press.
28:53Didn't hook the leg.
28:55Got him back down
28:56to the arm drag.
28:57Nice move there.
29:03Big event,
29:04as you have heard,
29:06if you are
29:06in the Atlanta area,
29:09Battlestars 91
29:11in cooperation
29:12with the
29:12Starlight Foundation.
29:14That will be
29:15in the Omni
29:15in Atlanta
29:16on Thanksgiving night
29:17at 8 o'clock.
29:20Tickets for that big event
29:21on Settled All
29:21Ticketmaster outlets.
29:23As we are going to
29:25tend to assist
29:28the Starlight Foundation
29:29on many of their
29:31worthwhile projects
29:32that night.
29:35Both men back up
29:36to a vertical base here.
29:39And inside cradle.
29:41He's going for it,
29:42but only got one.
29:44Rich taking
29:44straight down again.
29:46Got to be real
29:47frustrating for Rich.
29:48and Rich again
29:52proclaiming
29:52that his hair
29:53was pulled.
29:54Maybe the referee
29:54ought to check
29:55the hands
29:56of a Ragnarman
29:57and see if there's
29:57any grease in him.
30:02The prim and proper
30:03Alexandra York
30:08looking on
30:10at this
30:10one-on-one competition.
30:12A couple of good
30:27offensive moves
30:28by Thomas Rich.
30:30Had an interesting
30:31call last Sunday
30:33on AM 750 WSB
30:35on our radio program.
30:38And as a matter of fact,
30:39we'll be on the air again
30:40as usual tomorrow night.
30:43We'll have Tony Schiavone
30:44as my guest
30:44and we'll be taking
30:45your calls
30:46about the Clash of Champions.
30:48One, two, three, four.
30:49But I had an interesting
30:50call regarding
30:51the identity
30:52of a Ragnarman.
30:55Look forward to
30:56taking your calls
30:56on the radio
30:57tomorrow night
30:58as Rich has
30:59removed a portion
31:01of the tape
31:01on his wrist.
31:04He's using it
31:04to choke a Ragnarman.
31:10Of course,
31:14Rich denying
31:15any wrongdoing.
31:22Missed that clothesline
31:24and a flying headbutt.
31:26Good move
31:26by Ragnarman.
31:29Very easily
31:30goes up to the top
31:31and another headbutt
31:33right off the top.
31:34Rich now
31:35two high-impact moves
31:37in a row.
31:38He's got him
31:40wrapped up
31:40in a web-like
31:42pinning predicament.
31:43Ladies and gentlemen,
31:44the winner
31:45of the match,
31:46a Ragnarman.
31:50Van Hammer,
31:51if you're listening,
31:52stop listening
31:53because I'm about
31:54to speak
31:55in a foreign language
31:56about a subject
31:57that you don't understand.
31:59Big dudes,
32:00Van Hammer.
32:01Big dudes.
32:02How many nights
32:03have you spent
32:04tucked away
32:04in the backseat
32:05of your BMW?
32:06See,
32:07that's the difference
32:08between you
32:09and me.
32:11Opportunity
32:11knocked real loud
32:12on your door
32:13and made you a star
32:13at the last
32:14Clash of the Champions.
32:15Well,
32:16Opportunity
32:16never went
32:17bang,
32:17bang
32:18on the Cactus Jack
32:19household.
32:20Well,
32:20this Tuesday,
32:21November 19th,
32:23at the Clash
32:23of the Champions,
32:24I get my
32:25opportunity
32:26to show the world
32:28exactly what you are.
32:30To all your little girls
32:31and hammerheads
32:32around the world,
32:32you may be a big deal,
32:34but the Cactus Jack
32:36and people
32:36just like him,
32:37you're just a pimple
32:39on that cheek
32:39of wrestling.
32:40You're looking
32:41at 287 pounds
32:43of oxy-five.
32:45November 19th,
32:45Clash of the Champions,
32:46I'm gonna pop you.
32:47Welcome back to TBS.
32:58I'm Missy Hyatt,
32:59and this is
32:59Missy Does the Mail.
33:01Last Sunday
33:01on the main event,
33:03just as I predicted,
33:05the York Foundation
33:06won the WCW
33:08six-man
33:08tag team championship.
33:10As a former manager
33:12of tag team champions,
33:13I know how my good friend
33:15Alexander York
33:16must feel.
33:17Now that her men
33:18are the best,
33:20her computer
33:20certainly came in handy,
33:22and it really made
33:23an impression
33:23on that stupid
33:25mountain man,
33:26Big Josh.
33:28Here's what happened
33:28last Sunday.
33:30And look at Big Josh.
33:33He's so concerned
33:34about Tommy Rich,
33:36his former buddy.
33:38Rich has been
33:39really deeply lacerated.
33:41And Josh from behind
33:43by Taylor.
33:44Josh was trying
33:45to help
33:46his former friend.
33:48Taylor got him
33:48with a computer,
33:50and they're gonna win it.
33:51We've got new champions.
33:52Ladies and gentlemen,
33:54the winners
33:54and new world
33:57six-man tag team champions,
34:00Richard Morton,
34:02Terrence Taylor,
34:04Thomas Rich,
34:05members of
34:06the York Foundation.
34:09The York Foundation
34:11have just won
34:11their first
34:12major championship.
34:14If I were
34:15Dustin Rhodes
34:16and the Z-Man,
34:17I would blame
34:18Big Josh
34:19for losing the title.
34:20He must have had
34:21a flashback
34:22or something
34:22when he tried
34:23to help his former
34:24good buddy,
34:26Thomas Rich.
34:27How stupid
34:28can he be?
34:29Thomas didn't want
34:30his help
34:31or his friendship.
34:32Anyway,
34:33WCW finally has
34:35six-man tag team champions
34:37we all can be proud of.
34:39Now,
34:39don't forget
34:39the Clash of Champions
34:41live here on TBS
34:43this Tuesday night
34:44because I have
34:46a special interview
34:47with the cutest
34:48new WCW wrestler ever.
34:51I'm Missy Hyatt,
34:52and this has been
34:52Missy Does the Mail.
34:54Welcome back
34:56to the Power Hour,
34:57everyone,
34:58and this Tuesday night
34:58live here on TBS
34:59at the Clash of Champions.
35:01What a tremendous
35:01battle it will be
35:02for the United States
35:03Heavyweight Championship.
35:05The Stinger
35:05will defend the title
35:06against ravishing
35:07Rick Rude,
35:08and Rude's manager
35:09Paul E. Dangerously
35:10and Medusa,
35:12as I understand,
35:13will both be at ringside.
35:14They really shocked
35:15the wrestling world
35:16when they made
35:17their appearance
35:18and their intentions
35:19known at Halloween Havoc.
35:21Let's go back
35:22to Halloween Havoc
35:22and hear these comments.
35:24Ladies and gentlemen,
35:26the next United States
35:27Heavyweight Champion,
35:29Ravishing Rick Rude!
35:36Wow!
35:38Is that incredible
35:39or what?
35:40What a two.
35:41That's right, people.
35:44It's Ravishing Rick Rude.
35:47And anybody who knows
35:49Ravishing Rick Rude
35:51knows that all I care
35:53about is myself,
35:57my women,
35:59and my money.
36:01It just so happens
36:07that my money man
36:09has a problem
36:10with the world championship
36:13and the way he sees fit
36:17to solve this problem
36:20is to dismantle
36:23the WCW brick by brick.
36:28what better way Mr. Dangerously
36:35to start off
36:36than with a low-life scumbag
36:39like Sting.
36:40You know, Mr. Dangerously,
36:48a couple questions
36:49come to my mind
36:50being that I've never
36:52had the opportunity
36:53to stand face-to-face
36:55to stand face-to-face
36:56with the Stinger.
36:58I'm kind of wondering
36:59if he's really as small
37:02as he looks on television.
37:05I'm kind of wondering
37:06if he is
37:08the low-life,
37:09garbage,
37:11collected,
37:12scumbag
37:13that he portrays
37:14on TV.
37:16Well, Sting,
37:17your days are numbered.
37:18I'm going to tear apart
37:20the WCW
37:21and I'm going to take
37:22your United States title.
37:25They certainly have made
37:26their intentions
37:26perfectly clear.
37:28Paul E. Dangerously
37:29wants to bankrupt WCW.
37:31He says he can do that
37:32by destroying WCW's heroes.
37:34They're starting right
37:35at the top
37:36of the most popular athlete
37:37in world championship
37:38wrestling,
37:39the Stinger.
37:40And Paul E.'s got
37:41a tremendous athlete.
37:42We cannot discount
37:43the abilities of
37:44Ravishing Rick Rude,
37:45the master of
37:46the Rude awakening.
37:48Let's take a look
37:48at a recent bout
37:49involving
37:50Ravishing Rick Rude,
37:51the man that wants
37:52to be the next
37:53U.S. champion.
37:55As we take a look
37:56at Ravishing Rick Rude
37:57in competition here,
37:59notice his phenomenal
38:00physical condition.
38:01He has not been
38:02in intense competition
38:04in the last year
38:05as Sting has.
38:06Rude's physical condition
38:08is at 100%.
38:10And as you can see
38:12at ringside,
38:13the psycho yuppie manager,
38:15Paul E. Dangerously,
38:17WCW's answer
38:18to Cy Sperling
38:19is a very frustrated man.
38:22We have heard his comments
38:24earlier here
38:24on the Power Hour.
38:25He wants to
38:26bankrupt WCW.
38:28He is a very bitter
38:30young man.
38:34Rude can beat you
38:35in so many different ways.
38:37And we will see
38:38Rude and Dangerously
38:39later today
38:41on WCW
38:43when I will have
38:45the occasion
38:45to speak live
38:47with Rude and Paul E.
38:49The Rude Awakening.
38:51Nothing else
38:51can compare
38:52to that move.
38:52Well, ladies and gentlemen,
38:54the winner of the match,
38:56Ravishing
38:57Rick
38:58Rude.
39:00The Rude Awakening
39:01is certainly
39:02a devastating maneuver.
39:04One that Sting
39:04must avoid
39:05this Tuesday night
39:06at the Clash of Champions.
39:08Paul E. Dangerously
39:09has made quite a coup
39:10in securing
39:11the services
39:12of Ravishing
39:13Rick Rude
39:13and Medusa
39:14for that matter.
39:15At this time,
39:16I'd like for you
39:17to hear some comments
39:18from both parties
39:20in this situation.
39:21First, we'll hear
39:22from Ravishing
39:23Rick Rude
39:23and Paul E. Dangerously.
39:25And then we'll hear
39:26some comments
39:26from the United States
39:27Heavyweight Champion.
39:29This Tuesday night
39:31at 8.05 Eastern Time
39:32live right here
39:33on TBS.
39:34Stinger,
39:35it's about time
39:36that you answered
39:37for all your crimes.
39:39For being such
39:40a goody-two-shoes.
39:41For going
39:42to the Children's Hospital
39:43for signing
39:44all the autographs
39:45for all the
39:45Little Stingers.
39:47This Tuesday night
39:48at 8.05 Stinger,
39:49we're going to be
39:50your judge
39:50and we're going
39:51to be your jury
39:52and we're going
39:53to hand out
39:53the verdict right now
39:54and we find you
39:57guilty
39:57and we sentence you
39:59to a fate
40:00that's worse than death.
40:02We sentence you
40:03to a fate
40:04of going to
40:05all the Little Stingers
40:06and saying,
40:06yes, I lost the title
40:08to Ravishing Rick Rude.
40:09No, I wasn't man enough
40:11to beat this man.
40:12The next
40:13United States
40:14heavyweight champion
40:15as of this Tuesday
40:17night at 8.05
40:18is Ravishing Rick Rude.
40:21Right now, Sting,
40:23I bet you're looking
40:24at the tube
40:24and you're wishing
40:25you could just walk over
40:26and hand me the belt.
40:28Take it, Mr. Rude.
40:29Leave me be.
40:30Don't ruin my life.
40:32But you know what, Sting?
40:33Sting, I wouldn't have
40:34it that way.
40:35I don't want you
40:36to give me nothing.
40:37I want to take
40:38what's yours.
40:38I want to take
40:39what's yours
40:40and what you think
40:41will always be yours.
40:43I know about you, Sting.
40:44I know where you've been
40:45and I know what you've done.
40:47You're a heck of an athlete.
40:48No one could take
40:49that from you.
40:50And you know about me,
40:51don't you, Sting?
40:52You know where I've been
40:53and you know
40:54what I've done.
40:55And all the Little Stingers
40:56know what I've done
40:58and all the Little Stingers
40:59know what I can do.
41:00Oh, sure.
41:01They're going to tune
41:02into the match
41:02and it's going to be
41:03a great one.
41:04They'll see all the arm drags.
41:05They'll see the drop toe holds.
41:07They'll see the drop kicks.
41:08And yeah,
41:09they're going to see
41:09the gouging
41:10and they're going to see
41:11the kicking
41:12and they're going to see
41:13the biting.
41:14But you know what, Sting?
41:15The last thing
41:16all the Little Stingers
41:17are going to see
41:18is Ravishing Rick Rude
41:20putting the Rude Awakening
41:21on his sting.
41:22And when that happens,
41:24it's time for the fat lady
41:25to sing.
41:26And your title
41:26belongs to me.
41:29This Tuesday night
41:30here on TBS,
41:31The Clash of Champions,
41:32there's a couple of guys
41:34who say they want to
41:35get rid of all
41:36the so-called heroes.
41:37I don't call myself a hero.
41:39They want to start at the top.
41:40I don't consider myself
41:41at the top.
41:42I consider myself
41:43the stinger.
41:44Just a plain old wrestler
41:45with a little bit
41:46of personality
41:47and also a U.S. title.
41:49Which, by the way,
41:50Mr. Rude,
41:51if you haven't gotten
41:51the message clear yet,
41:53I'm not goofing off
41:55when I hop in the ring.
41:58What a matchup
42:00it will be, fans.
42:01And you can see it live
42:02as it happens
42:02right here on TBS
42:04this Tuesday night
42:05at 8.05 Eastern Time.
42:07Two and one-half hours
42:08of live WCW action.
42:10Now, we've got
42:10an outstanding broadcast
42:11as you have heard me
42:13talk about
42:13throughout the hour
42:14tonight on WCW.
42:15as we have
42:17tomorrow night
42:17on the main event.
42:19Many of the stars
42:20that will be involved
42:21Tuesday night
42:21at the Clash of Champions
42:22I'm sure will have
