The program opens with highlights from last week. Hulk Hogan joins Lex Luger and Sting.
Tony Schiavone and Bobby Heenan open the show.
Schiavone, “Welcome to Winston Salem, and Monday Ntro! Brain, Hulk Hogan is here!”
Heenan, “Oh joy. I told you, last week, Luger and Sting are in trouble. Hogan cares about one person, and that’s Hulk Hogan. He’ll let them down when they need him.”
Schiavone, “Brain, no one listens to you. The team of Luger, Sting and Hogan may be the strongest team in wrestling. We can also report, the match at Superbrawl VII will be an ‘Elimination Match’. When a wrestler is beaten, he must go to the back. It could be, 3 on 2, 2 on 1, or even 3 on 1. Let’s talk about tonight. Hulk Hogan will be in action, and we have two main events. First, Stevie Ray takes on Rick Steiner, and then, Sting meets Sid Vicious. Let’s get thing underway.”
Match #1
The Faces of Fear vs. Nick Dinsmore and Scott D’Amore
Meng and the Barbarian will be in the “Four Corners Match” at Superbrawl VII. They are one of the most dangerous teams in the sport, and they prove it. Dinsmore is the first to take a beating. The two big men tag in and out and punish the young man. D’Amore tries his hand, but the Canadian fares no better. The Barbarian climbs to the top rope and uses the diving headbutt for the win.
Winners-The Faces of Fear
Match #2
Jeff Jarrett vs. Shane Douglas
Two young, rising, stars meet in this one. Jarrett stars fadt. He uses mat wrestling to control the “Franchise”. He gets a two count, but Douglas isn’t finished yet. He makes a comeback, and now Jarrett is in trouble. Douglas hits the Pittsburgh plunge for the win.
Winner-Shane Douglas
Tony Schiavone and Bobby Heenan are at the announce table.
Schiavone, “Brain, the fans are talking about the International Lucha Division. They are excited about the fast paced style.”
Heenan, “It’s the fastest action I’ve ever seen. You’ve got Mexican guys, Liger, Ultimo Dragon, and who knows who else. I’m hard to impress, but they’ve done it.”
Schiavone, “It’s time to make an announcement about International Lucha and Superbrawl VII. We will crown the first International Lucha Champion in Atlanta. Next week, there will be a battle royal. The final two men will come back, at the Omni, and wrestle for the title. Brain, what do you think?”
Heenan, “All those high flyers in a battle royal? It will be like a pile up on the Ventura Freeway.”
Schiavone, “Let’s see six of these men in action.”
Match #3
Six Man Tag Team Match
Jushin “Thunder” Liger, Ultimo Dragon and Rey Mysterio vs. Villano IV, Villano V and
Silver King
This will be a treat. Both teams are fast, and exciting. The Dragon and Villano IV open the contest. Villano tries a ground based attack. The Dragon uses his speed to combat it. Myseterio tags in and the high flying begins. Mysterio flies around the ring and Villano tags in his brother. V tries his hand. Rey the tags in Liger. He works over V. Silver King tags in, but Liger is on fire. He hits the Liger driver for the win.
Winners-Jushin Liger, Ultimo Dragon and Rey Mysterio
Match #4
Bam Bam Bigelow w/Madusa vs. Al Green
Madusa leads one member of the Devil’s Triangle to the ring. Bigelow may be the most agile big man in the sport. Green is an up and coming wrestler, but can he stand up to Bam Bam? Green starts fast. Bam Bam is taken aback. Madusa shouts instructions. Bam Bam rallies, and goes after Green. He overpowers him, and wins with the reverse piledriver.
Winner-Bam Bam Bigelow
Hulk Hogan is in the interview area.
Hogan. “Devil’s Triangle! The ‘Three Demandments”, the training, the prayers, the vitamins! Now Hulkamania, Lugermania, and Stingermania! We’re ready for anything, Madusa, you stick your nose into things, and you’ll be sorry too! Superbrawl VII, the Hulkster in the Omni, all my Georgia Hulkamaniacs will be there, and we can't lose!”
Match #5
Hulk Hogan vs. The Roadblock
The Roadblock and referee Randy Anderson wait in the ring. We hear,
The Hulkster comes to the ring, and the arena explodes. Hogan goes right after Roadblock. The big man is a punching bag for Hogan. The big man is in trouble. Hogan scoops him up, and slams him. Next comes the legdrop, and Anderson counts three.
Winner-Hulk Hogan
Match #6
Rick Steiner w/Scott Steiner vs.Stevie Ray w/Booker T
Jack Doane will referee this one, good luck. All four men are in the ring, and it looks like chaos. Doane orders Scott and Booker T to the back, both argue, but the go. Now it’s one on one. The match is fast paced, and physical. Stevie Ray is able to stand up to Steiner’s assault. Stevie fires back, and now Steiner is in retreat. Rick is in the corner, and Stevie pounds away. Rick draws on the cheers of the crowd and fires back. Rick scoops up Stevie and slams him to the mat. He goes for the cover, and Doane counts 1...2...3! Steiner wins! Suddenly, Booker T hits the ring, followed by Scott Steiner. All for men brawl until wrestlers from the back pull them apart.
Winner-Rick Steiner
We see Sting in the interview area.
Sting. “AWWWWWWW! Sid Vicious, big, powerful, dumb! I can’t take you lightly. That bunch Madusa has put together is scarey, but I got Lex, I got the Hulkster, and I got the little Stingers! Come and get us!”
We now see Sid Vicious and Madusa.
Madusa, “Sting, you talk about who you have, a muscle head and an AARP member! I’ve got Sid, Vader and Bam Bam. Do you really think I’m afraid of you? Look at my monsters, you can’t win, and you’re going to get hurt!”
Match #7
Sting vs. Sid Vicious w/Madusa
The other wrestlers have been ordered to the back, but Madusa is ringside. That does not bode well for Sting. The bell rings and Sting lets out his patented scream. They circle on another. Neither man wants to make an early mistake. They lock up and Sid tosses Sting to the mat. Sid flexes, as Sting gets to his feet. They lock up and this time Sting takes control. He works over Sid’s arm. Sting pounds away, and Sid is in pain. Madusa is worried, and shouts instructions, and encouragement. It looks like Sting may finish off the big man. Sid tosses Sting over the top rope. Referee Nick Patrick calls for the bell. He disqualifies Sid. Big Van Vader and Bam Bam Bigelow rush to ringside and attack Sting. Here comes Lex Luger and Hulk Hogan. We have a pier six brawl. Hogan and his crew seem to get the better of things. Madusa regroups her men. She takes the mic.
Madusa, “Hogan, Sting, Luger, not tonight! In Atlanta, we take care of you!
Winner-Sting (Disqualification)
Tony Schiavone and Bobby Heenan close the show.
Schiavone, “Brain, this situation is about to boil over.”
Heenan, “I keep telling Sting, and Luger, you big dummies, Hogan is out for Hogan, and no one else. If you think you can trust him, you’re crazy!”
Schiavone, “You are welcome to your opinion. Next week, we will be in the beautiful Greensboro Coliseum. We will see the International Lucha battle royal. We will also see a rematch between Shane Douglas and Jeff Jarrett. We will be one week away from Superbrawl VII, anything can happen!”
