Intercontinental Champion Tito Santana defeats Kendo Nagasaki (With J.J. Dillon) by DQ.

The action was fast and furious and it appeared that Santana was on the verge putting Nagasaki away with the flying forearm; however Dillon jumped on the ring apron and managed to distract Santana. Santana punches Dillon out, and when he turns around Nagasaki spits the green mist in the eyes of Santana. During that time, the Spoiler and Hercules Hernandez made their way out and got into the ring and it was a 3 on assault on Santana with Dillon calling the shots.

Finally out Dino Bravo, The Fantastics and Steve Casey came out to make the save and tend to Santana, whose face is totally covered in green mist.

“Mean” Gene Okerlund is in the dressing room trying to get an update on Tito Santana’s condition. Bravo and the Fantastics are there, and you can hear Santana screaming that his eyes are burning.

Okerlund is unable to get a straight answer as Bravo and the Fantastics look on from the outside of the dressing room.

good show and MSG should be interesting. I love BRAVO using the AIRPLANE SPIN and ABDOMINAL STRETCH. I remember as a kid marking out when Zbyszko would use it.

[Kimmel]

Good angle with Kendo and Tito, fans will buy mad tickets to see Tito get his revenge.

I remember Bravo using that hold a lot and I find it perfect for the time frame, when an Abdominal Stretch actually resulted in a submission.

MSG looks good, Spoiler is a good opponent for Hulk, course I bet Dibiase can't be happy with that after being cheated at the Spectrum. The Fantastics vs. Pogo/Saito should be fun as well. Chico vs. Kendo will be fun, good TV angle.

[jackknight]

Good show. Nice Title defense for Tito and promo by the Fantastics.

[Chitohausen]

Fun show. It's nice to see Canadians like Dino Bravo and Bobby Kay in the WWF.

Hercules is a nice fit with JJ Dillon.
