00:00CBS and the Power Hour. In the next 60 minutes, you're going to see such one-on-one competition
00:04as Firebreaker Chip and Larry Zbysko. We'll also see the new United States Heavyweight Champion
00:09ravishing Rick Rude in action, and we'll show you how beautiful Bobby turned his back
00:13on Dustin Rhodes. That and more on the Power Hour.
00:30The following challenges, it is a 12-1 ball. Introducing first, from Detroit, Michigan,
00:56bringing 265 pounds, Rick Steiner. His opponent from Dell, Indiana, 244 pounds, John Faulkner.
01:16All right, everyone, it's going to be Rick Steiner and John Faulkner kicking it off there
01:20this morning on PBS. Referee Mike Atkins calls for the bell.
01:26Rick Steiner, what a war he had recently with the World's Heavyweight Champion, Lex Luger.
01:35And he came very, very close in winning the WCW Heavyweight Championship of the World.
01:46Faulkner with a very cautious yet clean break.
01:51Forcing Steiner back in the corner.
01:57Steiner with a right hand.
01:59Certainly is one of the most physically intimidating athletes I have ever been around.
02:06A young man who genuinely enjoys his occupation.
02:10And in a match like this, he can have a great deal more fun than wrestling someone the caliber
02:22of the total package, Lex Luger.
02:25Oh, there's a Steiner line.
02:27And what a wake-up call here this morning for John Faulkner.
02:30And this is just for practice.
02:43Left to right elbow makes no difference.
02:50He's getting closer.
02:51Mr. Peterson is a little anxious about that.
02:57He was an All-American at the University of Michigan, as we have documented many times.
03:03He and his brother Scott grew up in Bay City, Michigan.
03:05We'll be telling you about our broadcast later today here on TBS World Championship Wrestling.
03:18Hour and a half begins at 6.05.
03:21And we'll be on for until 7.30 tonight.
03:28And then we'll turn it over to the Atlanta Hawks.
03:30And they'll entertain the Celtics tonight in the Omni.
03:34And Steiner still having some fun here this morning.
03:37Who said wrestling couldn't be fun?
03:41Of course, the opponent is certainly not having a great deal of time.
03:48I think I called him John Peterson.
03:50It's John Faulkner.
03:52All I can say is what I think is coming up is Dear John.
03:59I think Steiner just waved goodbye to John by any other name.
04:03It's a belly-to-belly suplex for Mr. Faulkner.
04:06I will get it right here this morning.
04:12And that's it.
04:14Ladies and gentlemen, here's your opener.
04:16Rick Steiner.
04:20As I said, fans, we'll be telling you about our big broadcast later today on WCW.
04:26What a Steiner line.
04:28Rick Steiner had a lot of fun here this morning.
04:31But he desperately, seriously wants to be the heavyweight champion of the world.
04:36And now, fans, here's a look at this week's top ten rankings in singles competition for world championship wrestling.
04:46Of the weekend beginning Saturday, November 30th, as compiled by promoters and members of the WCW Board of Directors.
04:53In the number ten slot this week, Big Van Vader.
04:56Moving up one notch from last week into number nine.
04:59The Ratmaster from Motown, PN News.
05:01Cactus Jack holds steady at number eight this week.
05:04Mr. Hughes, the bodyguard, is in at number seven.
05:06Continuing to move up the top ten rankings this week at number six, Scott Steiner.
05:11And the top five men remain the same from last week.
05:14The number five man from Austin, Texas.
05:16The Natural Weston Rhodes.
05:17The number four man.
05:18The world television champion, stunning Steve Austin.
05:21In at number three, Sting.
05:23The number two ranked contender.
05:25The dog-faced gremlin, Rick Steiner.
05:26And the number one ranked contender, the U.S. heavyweight champion, ravishing Rick Bruce.
05:31And as always, the world heavyweight champion is still the total package, Flex Luger.
05:36And that's a look at the top ten rankings in world championship wrestling.
05:49Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to the Power Hour.
05:51Still to come, we are going to see Larry Zbysko and Firebreaker Chip.
05:55Also, Elie Gante is here.
05:57But right now, I'd like to take you back to the Clash of Champions.
06:00As you all know, ravishing Rick Rude, the new United States heavyweight champion.
06:05We're going to see him in action in just a few moments.
06:07But let's go back to November 19th.
06:09It occurred live right here on TBS.
06:11In a very controversial fashion, Rick Rude became the new United States heavyweight champion.
06:16Here's how.
06:17Dangerous, he thought he had it with that bow, but the stinger kicked out.
06:25And there's a DDT.
06:26A DDT.
06:27It may be over.
06:29And Dangerous, he's up on the apron.
06:35And Rude from behind.
06:37He clipped that knee from behind, just like Luger did earlier.
06:42He's got it trailing.
06:44He's got the tights.
06:45He's got the tights, but he's going to win it.
06:49The following time pass, it is set for one fall.
06:52Introducing first, accompanied by Paul E. Dangerously, from Robinsdale, Minnesota.
06:59Weighing 254 pounds.
07:03Ravishing Rick Rude.
07:11Cut the music.
07:12Cut the music.
07:15What I'd like to have right now is for all you fat, out of shape, deep south sweat hogs.
07:29Keep the noise down while I take my robe off and show the ladies what a real sexy man is
07:37supposed to look like.
07:39Hit the music.
07:40Well, Cy Sperling Jr., also known as Paul E. Dangerously, certainly enjoying the attitude of Mr. Rude, the United States heavyweight champion.
07:56I've never seen a wrestling feud escalate as rapidly as ravishing Rick Rude and Sting in this battle.
08:17Perhaps I should say a war for the United States heavyweight championship.
08:24And the fans that were in the Omni Thanksgiving night know exactly what I'm referring to.
08:31And we hope to have that footage available for us next Saturday on WCW from the Thanksgiving night Omni event.
08:41Pauly certainly enjoys that portion, it would seem, of Mr. Rude's wrestling matches.
08:55His arrogant display, his tights, very colorful, with Sting's likeness on them.
09:04Tonight on WCW, several members of the Dangerous Alliance will be in action, including stunning Steve Austin defending the TV title against Arachna Man.
09:15And Arne Anderson and beautiful Bobby Eaton, who came very close to winning the World Tag Titles in the Omni, take on the Patriots.
09:23This portion of the many great matches later on WCW, inverted atomic drop by the United States heavyweight champion.
09:34A man that has been a champion around the world in every major organization.
09:41He has been a very dominant athlete.
09:44But he has certainly, I don't think, ever faced a man with the focus that Sting now possesses.
09:54And I think tonight on WCW, 6.05 Eastern Time, you're going to hear an interview that I had earlier this week with Sting.
10:03That's going to show a completely different side of the Stinger.
10:08Hope you will watch our broadcast and hear those comments for the Stinger.
10:14He must avoid that move.
10:15It's the Rude Awakening.
10:17But this battle for the U.S. title is far from over.
10:19Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the match, Ravishing, Rick Rude.
10:38Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest, six-man tag team action.
10:43It is that for one fall, introducing first, led to the ring by the executive director of the York Foundation,
10:52Alexandra York, Thomas Rich, Richard Martin, and the computerized man of the 1990s,
11:01Terrence Keller, collectively known as the York Foundation.
11:06And ladies and gentlemen, their opponents, introducing first, from Knoxville, Tennessee,
11:15Larry Santo, Reno, Nevada, Lynn Fields, and Baltimore, Maryland, jumping, Joey Maggs.
11:24World six-man tag team champions here on the Power Hour this morning.
11:28And tomorrow on the main event with Tony Schiavone and Missy Hyatt,
11:32they'll be defending the six-man tag team championship against a very unusual trio.
11:38I do not understand why the Freebirds have chosen Beautiful Bobby to join them tomorrow
11:46in this quest for the six-man championship.
11:51That'll be on the main event at 6.05 Eastern Time.
11:54I mean, to be quite frank about it, Beautiful Bobby cannot be trusted,
11:57but perhaps neither can the Byrds when it comes right down to it.
12:06Should be an outstanding matchup.
12:08I don't know how long the contracts have been signed.
12:10That could have a factor in it as well.
12:14Richard Morton taking Jumpin' Joey Maggs.
12:18Tire a young competitor from Baltimore.
12:22One of the great wrestling cities.
12:23We regularly frequent, promoted by Gary Juster.
12:29Always great action in Baltimore at the arena.
12:34Terrence following young Mr. Maggs in.
12:37You know, there's been a lot of speculation
12:39that perhaps Terrence Taylor would like to buy his way out of
12:45the Dork Foundation.
12:48Thomas Rich showing a very brutal streak.
13:00You hear so many rumors in wrestling,
13:04and you certainly can't believe everything you read.
13:06That's for darn sure.
13:09So, I think, though, that Taylor has designs
13:14on leaving the York Foundation,
13:16but I don't know when.
13:19They're making a pretty good living right now
13:21as the six-man tag team champions.
13:24I understand Ms. York is pretty adept
13:27in investing the money of the York Foundation.
13:30That's good.
13:31Running knee lift.
13:32Reminiscent of the legendary Mr. Wrestling No. 2,
13:36who used to utilize that particular maneuver
13:38to his benefit.
13:40So, don't forget tomorrow,
13:45Missy and Tony have the main event,
13:476.05 Eastern Time.
13:49Heavy Metal Van Hammer on the broadcast.
13:51I'm going to be talking to Michael Hayes
13:53in the Ross Report.
13:56Heard some interesting rumors this week
14:01as some of the major events coming up,
14:07a lot of unique negotiations being ongoing right now,
14:12and I will have some of that information for you,
14:16what I can say without being sued,
14:17on the wrestling hotline all day today
14:21until midnight tonight.
14:22You know, we're going on the bruise cruise next week,
14:25and I'll be filing some reports from the bruise cruise.
14:318 o'clock Eastern Time.
14:33I believe those start on Sunday,
14:35but I'm not sure.
14:35Sunday, I'm...
14:36Kind of, sort of, sure, you know.
14:41Thomas Richie,
14:42and I'm sure that the York Foundation
14:43have dominated this matchup.
14:47And with their Hatfield and McCoy-like environment lately,
14:52with beautiful Bobby,
14:54a man that we know cannot be trusted,
14:56with the rather questionable character
14:58of Garvin and Hayes,
15:00it makes tomorrow's main event
15:02rather exciting and very unpredictable
15:05for the six-man championship.
15:07Lynn Field just got dropped on his head.
15:13Richard Martin,
15:14very arrogant in recent weeks.
15:19Suplex, he does it so effortlessly.
15:23Bag made.
15:28Right hand by Terrence.
15:35The sights and the sounds
15:45of world championship wrestling
15:47here on this beautiful Saturday morning.
15:51And Morton and Taylor,
15:53Rich, all getting in on the...
15:55this act of violence on Lynn Field,
16:00and now a very arrogant slap.
16:04Tonight on WCW,
16:06Taylor and Morton will challenge
16:08Ricky the Dragon Steamboat
16:09and Dustin Rhodes for the world tag title.
16:12So Miss York,
16:13very, very successful
16:14in negotiating big contracts.
16:17There's a clothesline by Thomas Rich.
16:22Quite frankly,
16:24Mags, Santo, and Fields
16:26gave great effort,
16:27but they are just outclassed
16:28in this one.
16:30So with that matchup tonight,
16:32Steamboat and Rhodes
16:33to defend the world tag title.
16:35First time since they won
16:36the championship.
16:37It'll be later today
16:38on WCW.
16:40And right there,
16:42Morton driving the knee
16:43in the back of Fields' head.
16:45That should be it.
16:47And it is.
16:48Ladies and gentlemen,

18:23from Minneapolis,
18:24Minnesota,
18:25251 pounds,
18:27pretty boy,

18:31Well,
18:31that's debatable.
18:34Starcade 91
18:35exclusively on
18:36Pay-Per-View.
18:38Certainly the most
18:40interesting concept
18:41for a Pay-Per-View
18:42wrestling event
18:43that I've ever
18:44been around.
18:46El Gigante
18:46and 39 other names
18:48will be put into a hat.
18:51They'll be drawn out
18:52at random.
18:55And,
18:55uh,
18:56it's going to be
18:58very unique
18:59to see who
18:59the partners are
19:00in the tag team
19:01competition.
19:03El Gigante's partner
19:04could be
19:04Lex Luger,
19:06it could be
19:06Abdul the Butcher,
19:08it could be
19:08any of the
19:1139 names

19:26which is a
19:27two-ring
19:28battle royal.
19:30But once you
19:30get to Battle Bowl
19:31the
19:31teams dissolve
19:34and every man
19:35is for himself.

21:18of the
21:18United States
21:19tag team
21:20champions,
21:22Firebreaker
21:23Chip!
21:23submit or
21:26surrender here
21:27on the
21:27Power Hour.
21:28This match
21:29originally aired
21:30on
21:31Worldwide Wrestling.
21:34Zabisco at that
21:35time was
21:35one half
21:36of the
21:36World Tag Team
21:37Championship,
21:38and that certainly
21:38is a sore spot,
21:40much like
21:40Firebreaker's
21:41Chip's ribs are
21:41going to be.
21:43Zabisco,
21:44a member now
21:45of the
21:45Dangerous Alliance,
21:46being a
21:48reassigned,
21:49so to speak,
21:50within the
21:50organization.
21:52Good move
21:52there by the
21:53Firebreaker,
21:54Bell in the
21:54Back Suplex.
21:55Remember,
21:56this match can
21:56only be won
21:57by submission
21:58or surrender.
21:59I wanted to
22:00bring it to you
22:01because it
22:02certainly shows
22:03a very
22:05aggressive
22:05streak in
22:07Zabisco,
22:08hence his
22:09new nickname,
22:10the
22:11Cruncher.
22:15He got that
22:17name from
22:17Pauly
22:18Dangerously
22:18after slamming
22:20Wyndham's own
22:20car door on
22:21Barry's hand,
22:23which required
22:24a reconstructive
22:24surgery.
22:26So Larry the
22:27Cruncher,
22:29Zabisco,
22:30no longer
22:31Sir Lawrence
22:32of Zabisco,
22:33no longer
22:34Larry the
22:34Lip or
22:35Larry the
22:36Legend,
22:36but the
22:37Cruncher.
22:38They'll draw
22:39you a
22:39nickname
22:40bust out
22:41there.
22:41Let's be
22:41sure we
22:42have that
22:42streak.
22:45Firebreaker
22:46Chip.
22:48Very
22:48powerful
22:49young man.
22:52And that
22:53power slam
22:54certainly
22:54indicative of
22:55that,
22:56but he
22:56went for
22:56a cover
22:58and a
22:58pin and
22:59just out
23:00of instinct.
23:01There's no
23:01pins in this
23:02match.
23:03It's
23:03submission
23:03or surrender,
23:05which includes
23:06failure to
23:08answer the
23:08bell or
23:09answer a
23:1010 count,
23:10I should
23:11say.
23:13But Zabisco
23:14been reassigned
23:15to a
23:16duties of
23:17special projects,
23:19I understand,
23:20meaning I
23:20guess he's
23:21going to do
23:21their dirty
23:22work.
23:25It seems
23:26that Pauly
23:27Dangerously
23:27has designated
23:29Arne Anderson
23:30and beautiful
23:30Bobby Eaton
23:31as his
23:32number one
23:34tag team
23:35of record.
23:36Of course,
23:37as we have
23:37talked about,
23:38they're deeply
23:38involved with
23:39Ricky the
23:40Dragon Steamboat
23:41and Dustin
23:41Rhodes over
23:43the world
23:43tag title.
23:47Nice
23:47sleeper there
23:48by the
23:48Firebreaker.
23:49That'd be
23:49one way to
23:50win the match.
23:51Zabisco
23:52negotiated the
23:53youngster to
23:54the ropes.
23:55Zabisco fell
23:56no farther
23:56than the
23:57apron,
23:58while the
23:58Firebreaker
23:59fell all the
23:59way out to
24:00the floor.
24:00and now
24:03Chip trying
24:04to bring
24:04the
24:05Cruncher
24:05outside.
24:11Still to
24:11come,
24:12I'm sure
24:12many of
24:13you men
24:13look forward
24:14to having
24:14breakfast on
24:15Saturday
24:15morning with
24:16Missy.
24:18So,
24:19Missy does
24:20the mail
24:20still to
24:20come,
24:21the broadcast.
24:22Her focus
24:22will be
24:23on the
24:25total package
24:26Lex Luger.
24:30Nice
24:32counter move
24:33into a
24:33suplex.
24:34Zabisco's
24:34not going
24:35to be
24:35able to
24:35match
24:35power
24:36for this
24:36youngster.
24:37He's got
24:37to use
24:38his savvy
24:38and take
24:40advantage of
24:41any mistake
24:41that Firebreaker
24:42Chip might
24:43make or
24:44that Zabisco
24:44can create.
24:50This is
24:50Bruise Cruise
24:51Weekend.
24:52I'm looking
24:52forward to
24:53seeing all
24:53the wrestling
24:54fans in the
24:54Bruise Cruise
24:55leaving later
24:58this weekend
24:59from Tampa.
25:00Fans are
25:03watching the
25:03Hawks and
25:04the Celtics
25:04tonight.
25:06You might
25:06see the
25:06American Dream
25:07Dusty Rhodes
25:08sitting in
25:09your
25:09season seats.
25:12Dream a
25:13big Celtic
25:13fan.
25:15Go tell
25:16Mr.
25:16Turner.
25:18That'll be
25:19our secret
25:20of the
25:20weekend.
25:22Firebreaker
25:22Chip now
25:23bringing
25:25Zabisco
25:26outside.
25:26May not
25:27be the
25:27smartest
25:27move that
25:28Firebreaker
25:28can make
25:29but I
25:30guess
25:30that fan
25:32kind of
25:32excited
25:33in those
25:33bibb
25:33overalls.
25:35Maybe
25:35they're a
25:35little
25:35tight.
25:39Chip
25:39tossing
25:40Zabisco
25:40back inside.
25:43Great
25:44right hand.
25:45Remember
25:45still to come
25:46it will be
25:49Dustin Rhodes
25:50right there
25:52over the
25:52top rope.
25:52Now that
25:53normally would
25:53be an
25:54automatic
25:54disqualification
25:55and unfortunately
25:57it looks like
25:58Chip has
25:58either fallen
25:59on his knee
26:00or twisted it
26:01in the security
26:02railing on the
26:03way down.
26:05He is holding
26:06his knee now
26:07and that is
26:08a bad
26:10bad
26:10break
26:12and no
26:13pun intended
26:13for that
26:14young man.
26:15It may be
26:16his shin.
26:16I can't tell
26:17if it's
26:18his shin
26:18or his
26:18knee.
26:23We'll show
26:24you later
26:25today why
26:25beautiful Bobby
26:26cannot be
26:27trusted
26:27when he and
26:29Dustin Rhodes
26:29team to take
26:30on
26:30Anderson
26:32and Austin
26:33of the
26:33dangerous
26:34alliance
26:34and right
26:36now
26:36Sabisco
26:37stomping
26:38on that
26:39knee
26:39and that
26:39knee
26:40is just
26:40fair game.
26:42Firebreaker
26:43Chip unable
26:44to basically
26:45to defend
26:46himself here
26:47and even
26:48though it's
26:48submission or
26:49surrender
26:50we have to
26:51exercise from
26:52an official's
26:53point of view
26:53a little
26:53common sense.
26:59Referee
27:00Randy Anderson
27:01must take
27:04into consideration

34:53in time
34:53was looking
34:54for a regular
34:54tag team
34:55partner
34:55many of us
34:56thought that
34:57beautiful Bobby
34:58would make a
34:59great
34:59compliment to
35:02Dustin Rose
35:04right hand
35:07win by stunning
35:07Steve
35:08world television
35:10champion
35:11amazing that
35:14Paul Lee can
35:15acquire
35:15a man of
35:18Austin skills
35:19with his title
35:20intact
35:21we pull the
35:30hair
35:30let's break
35:31it
35:31and Austin
35:36takes his own
35:38medicine there
35:38so to speak
35:39lariat by
35:41Dustin Rhodes
35:42and Dustin
35:44now makes a
35:44tag the
35:45beautiful Bobby
35:45remember we
35:49taped this
35:50match
35:50just a few
35:51weeks ago
35:52and again
35:53the significance
35:53for it
35:54quick tag
35:55and right there
35:57you can almost
35:57see that
35:58it had a
36:01potential to
36:02have a bad
36:03day at
36:03Black Rock
36:04as the old
36:07cliche goes
36:08because
36:09Eaton made
36:10the tag
36:11came in
36:12said only a
36:13very very
36:13brief time
36:14and tagged
36:15Dustin back
36:16in
36:16and quite
36:17frankly
36:18Dustin Rhodes
36:19has done
36:19most of the
36:19offensive work
36:21in this
36:22contest
36:22this kid
36:25gets a
36:25malign
36:27time to
36:27time by
36:28fans
36:29that think
36:29he wants
36:29to live
36:30on his
36:30father's
36:30coattails
36:31this kid's
36:33a great
36:33athlete
36:33this kid's
36:34an outstanding
36:35wrestler
36:35making it
36:36on his own
36:37let's see
36:39exactly what
36:39happened there
36:40Austin Meck
36:40caught him
36:41with a
36:41right hand
36:42short right
36:42I'm not
36:42sure
36:43beautiful
36:47Bobby
36:48right hand
36:49and Austin
36:50now in
36:51trouble
36:51being
36:52volleyed
36:52around
36:53now
36:54Eaton
36:55leaves a
36:56corner
36:56talking there
37:00to the
37:00referee
37:00I don't
37:01know
37:01and right
37:02there
37:02Rhodes
37:02was
37:02double
37:03team
37:03you wonder
37:04if Eaton
37:05was distracting
37:05the referee
37:06there on
37:07purpose or
37:07not
37:08he's not
37:10saying what
37:10happened
37:11and I'm
37:12sure that
37:12he could
37:12see over
37:13the referee's
37:14shoulder
37:14I think
37:18this whole
37:19thing has
37:19been a
37:19piece of
37:21a master
37:22plan that
37:23dangerously
37:24wants to
37:25eliminate any
37:25competition
37:27he wants
37:30to
37:31as he says
37:32to bankrupt
37:33this organization
37:34which is a
37:35very ludicrous
37:36goal in my
37:38estimation
37:38he's getting
37:43more and more
37:43influence every
37:44day because
37:45he manages
37:47two champions
37:48and six
37:50of the
37:51most highly
37:53regarded
37:53athletes in
37:54WCW
37:55now right
37:55there
37:56beautiful
37:56Bobby being
37:57a tag team
37:58specialist
37:58could have
37:58very easily
37:59have gone
38:00around the
38:00post and
38:01made the
38:02tag to
38:02Dustin
38:03Rhodes
38:03again we
38:04are watching
38:04this match
38:05in a
38:05retrospective
38:06trying to
38:09look for
38:09signs or
38:11something that
38:11might have
38:12tipped us
38:12off when
38:13we saw it
38:14when it
38:14originally aired
38:16as you know
38:17by watching our
38:18broadcast last
38:19week the
38:20dangerous alliance
38:21includes rude
38:23Anderson
38:24Zabisco
38:25Austin
38:26and Eaton
38:27along with
38:27Medusa
38:28and again
38:29why is he
38:30conversing with
38:30the referee
38:31allowing
38:33well we know
38:35why I guess
38:36that's a
38:36bad question
38:37I'll promise
38:43you fans
38:43at the time
38:44this match
38:44occurred
38:45I until
38:47the very
38:47end of
38:48the match
38:48just did
38:50not
38:51put it
38:52all together
38:53I thought
38:54that beautiful
38:55Bobby
38:55had had a
38:56long successful
38:57career with
38:58a manager
38:58I thought
38:59he was not
39:00interested in
39:00having a manager
39:01again
39:02and obviously
39:05I was wrong
39:06couple lefts
39:17there by
39:18Anderson
39:18and again
39:20Dustin finally
39:22makes the tag
39:23the beautiful
39:23Bobby
39:24Anderson
39:26needs Dustin
39:27outside
39:28now Eaton
39:29comes in
39:29right here
39:30with a lot
39:30of fire
39:30this is where
39:32I thought
39:32everything was
39:33going to be
39:33fine
39:33Dustin
39:35trying to
39:36regroup
39:36nailing
39:37double A
39:37Anderson
39:38rakes the
39:39eyes
39:39and now
39:41Anderson
39:41just
39:42violently
39:45ran
39:46Dustin
39:47into the
39:47ring post
39:48even though
39:51a couple
39:52of things
39:52you would
39:53raise your
39:53eyebrow
39:54about
39:54earning
