2 OUT OF 3 FALLS:
JESSE BARR VS. MIKE ROTUNDO
FALL ONE:
Tony says after Barr used the ropes last week to steal the victory, Mike Rotundo demanded a rematch and it was ruled that it would be contested in a 2 out of 3 falls match!! Rotundo goes to lock up with Barr, but at the last minute Barr backs off. Barr shakes his head, and then goes to lock up again, but for a second time he back off, this time walking to the corne.. Now it looks like Barr is ready, they go to tie up, and Barr ducks under!!!! He is looking out to the crowd and he flips his hair with his hands, with a giant smile on his face, he turns around and Mike Rotundo has had enough and begins to unload on Barr with punches!!!! He backs Barr against the ropes and whips him off but Barr grabs the top rope when he hits it and rolls out of the ring. Mike Rotundo holds the ropes open for Barr telling him to get back in the ring, finally Barr rolls back into the ring and the two men go to lock up but Barr reaches in and rakes Rotundo's eyes!!!!
Barr now takes over on Rotundo, nailing him with stiff forearms that back Rotundo into the ropes.

Rotundo is holding Barr foot and Barr is begging off, Rotundo pushes Barr foot away spinning Barr around, grabbing a waistlock and bringing Barr over with a belly to back suplex!!!! Rotundo bridges but only gets a two count. Barr scrambles away and gets to his feet, but Rotundo gives chase and catches him in the corner, but Barr is ready and kicks Rotundo in the stomach and then slams Rotundo's head into the top turnbuckle!!!! Barr lays some heavy chops in on Rotundo then goes to whip him into the opposite corner, but Rotundo reverses it, wait Barr reverses it again and Rotundo crashes into the turnbuckle!!!! Barr charges forward but Rotundo moves at the last possible second and Barr crashes chest first into the corner!!!! Barr staggers out of the corner and when he is in the center of the ring Rotundo catches him an airplane spin!!!!!!!! Rotundo drops Barr to the mat, makes the cover and gets the three count to claim the first fall!!!
FALL TWO:
We have a 10 second rest period in which Barr argues that he kicked out. Rotundo turns to go to his corner giving Barr enough time to try a sneak attack, but Rotundo hears him coming and knocks him down with a punch to the face!!!

WINNER: MIKE ROTUNDO
Barr kicks out right as the referee counts three and wants to keep fighting but he is waved off and the referee awards the match to Mike Rotundo!!!!! Barr tries to attack Rotundo but Rotundo is ready for it and tosses him out of the ring!!! Barr acts like he is going to get back in the ring but Jimmy Garvin climbs in and stands side by side with Mike Rotundo, Barr thinks better of the situation and takes a powder!!! Garvin and Rotundo celebrate in the ring as Jim Ross sends us backstage to Bob Caudle, who is with the World Television Champion!!!!
Bob: Thanks Jim, I am here with the World Television Champion Nikita Koloff, and tonight Nikita you face a man who has never been pinned nor has he ever submitted here in the NWA, Big Bubba Rogers!!!
Nikita: I too once was unbeaten Bob Caudle, but I learned just like you will learn Big Bubba that any man can be beaten!!! And tonight, Big Bubba, shto eta, I will beat you and show you who the baddest man is!!!!
Koloff poses and sticks out his tongue as the camera gets a close up of his face and Jim Ross says we’ll be right back!!!!

VS.
THE DYNAMIC DUDES & “ALL AMERICAN” DEL WILKES
Douglas and Anderson start off this one fall contest!!!! Anderson gets in Douglas’ face, pushes him back and then runs his thumb across his neck to let Douglas know what he thinks of him, and Douglas answers back by decking “The Enforcer”!!!!!!! Douglas continues to throw punches at Arn backing him into the ropes before whipping him off and dropping him with a big clothesline!!! Arn scrambles to his feet and the two men lock up!! They trade back and forth moves as Douglas shows that he is better than he gets credit for being!!! Douglas is able to get an upperhand and he and Johnny Ace use rapid tags in and out to keep Arn bouncing around the ring, Ross and Schiavone put over how the Dudes have been racking up victories in the last couple of weeks and that they may soon be in line for matches with both the World and US Tag Team Champions, both get a couple of near falls but can’t seem to keep the Enforcer down so Ace tags out to “The All American” Del Wilkes!
Jim Ross gushes over Wilkes college football career with the Gamecocks and how Wilkes is only the second Gamecock ever to earn All American honors!!!! Wilkes sends Anderson into the ropes, but Anderson stops his momentum by grabbing the top rope and then tagging out to Lex Luger! Luger comes in and flexes at Wilkes, Wilkes flexes right back at Luger to the delight of the crowd!!! Luger and Wilkes then start trading punches like two bulls in a china shop!!! Neither men back down as Wilkes gives the US Champion all he can handle before Luger catches him with a powerslam!!!! Luger pulls Wilkes off the mat and tags back out to Anderson!!! Arn beats on Wilkes some before whipping him into the corner, Arn charges in behind him but Wilkes moves at the last second and Arn crashes hard into the turnbuckles!!! Wilkes seizes his moment and climbs the turnbuckle raining ten punches down on Arn’s head!!! Wilkes then hip tosses Arn out of the corner before tagging back out to Douglas, Arn rolls to his corner and tags out to Flair!!!!
Flair comes center ring and offers Douglas a handshake, but then pulls it back and runs his hand through his hair and WOOOOOOOOOOOOs at Douglas!! The two men lock up and Douglas keeps some pace with the World Champion, but Flair gets the upper hand and bring Douglas up into a high vertical suplex, Flair holds Douglas up in the air for a good ten-twenty seconds before bringing Douglas crashing to the mat!!! Flair then drops a knee across Douglas’ head!!! Flair keeps working on Douglas and then tags out to Arn. Arn continues the punishment for several minutes more, but can’t seem to put the young man away. Douglas gets one last gasp of breath when he ducks a clothesline and then answers back with a flying burrito!!!! Douglas staggers to his feet and leaps to his corner where he makes the tag to Del Wilkes!!!!
Wilkes comes in like a house of fire!!! He unloads on Arn before sending him in the ropes and catching him with a powerslam!!!! Wilkes is pumped up and yells out to the crowd!! Wilkes pulls Arn up and hits a big vertical suplex but a cover only gets a two count!!! Wilkes then sents up in the corner in a three point stance!!!! Arn gets to his feet, Wilkes charges Arn, but Arn moves out of the way at the last second, Wilkes can’t put on the brakes fast enough and smacks his shoulder on the corner post!!! Arn pulls Wilkes out of the corner, tosses him into the ropes and hits a spinebuster!!! Arn then quickly tags out to the Nature Boy!!! Flair grabs one of Wilkes legs and yells “NOW WE GO TO SCHOOL!!!” Flair quickly locks Wilkes in the Figure Four and it doesn’t take long for Wilkes to cry uncle and give the win to the Horsemen!!!!
WINNERS:THE HORSEMEN
Flair walks over to the side of the ring where the commentators are sitting and points at Jim Ross before telling him to come into the ring. Ross grabs a microphone and climbs in to hear what the Champion has to say!!!!
Jim Ross: Well Champ, I guess you have something you want to say..
Flair: JIM!!! BY GOD!!! ROSS!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! YOU BET YOUR ASS I GOT SOMETHING TO SAY!!! Last week, a TRAVESTY happened right here in this ring on the Superstation, because you see the people watching this program were LIED TO Jim Ross!!!!
Ross: How do you figure that?
Flair: Because Tommy Young made the mistake of telling the world that the Nature Boy said “I QUIT!!! I GIVE UP!!! I CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!” AND THAT ISN’T THE TRUTH!!! Windham!!! I never gave up!!! You know it, I know it, THESE PEOPLE know it, and Tommy Young damn sure knows it!!! So Windham, you better be listening pal, this is your ONLY warning!!! Don’t come out here and try and tell the world you made me say I quit, because as I said we both know that’s not the case, and believe me, if you make the mistake of disregarding what I have to say, if you make the critical error of even WHISPERING that you made ME say I QUIT?? You are going to PAY THE PRICE!!!! Tell ‘em Arn.
Arn:Jim Ross, I think the Champ said all that there is to say about Barry Windham and the falsehoods that the NWA is trying to push, but let me just say this. Barry Windham an irrational man makes irrational choices, now I know you very well, the two of us have been involved in a war all of this country for much of the past year, so I don’t think you are an irrational man, I think you have a few brain cells in that head of yours so I think you are going to be smart enough to make the right decision here and keep your mouth shut and stay out of the Horsemen’s business,
No then, let’s talk about two men who didn’t keep their nose out of the Horsemen’s business last week, and seem to be picking fights this week with other people. Hawk, Animal, I will give it to you, the two of you have more guts than brains, and you got a couple of good looking bodies, but that amounts to squat in this business, maybe if they decide to make a sequel to Beach Blanket Bingo you’ll have a shot at that, but as far as a shot at the World Tag Team Titles? You must be dreaming!!!!! And in a few short moments my tag team partner Tully Blanchard is going to wake you up from that dream Hawk and introduce you to the nightmare that you have found yourself in!!! Make no mistake about it Road Warriors, you just don’t have what it takes to be the World Tag Team Champions. Right James?
JJ Dillon:I am not going to waste anymore valuable time talking about people like Barry Windham or The Road Warriors. If Windham is smart we won’t have to deal with any issues involving him anymore, and as far as the Road Warriors go….well, let’s just so Tully Blanchard is in the back getting ready to do a little Hawk hunting if you catch my meaning.
Lex: You know last week was a small setback, but I rebounded and won a Bunkhouse Stampede Qualifier and now I am in the Bunkhouse Stampede!!! You see I don’t stand out here and make threats and promises that I don’t keep. Jim Ross, I am a professional athlete and I have set certain goals for myself, goals that I intend to reach, now sometimes I get talked into doing things I might not want to do, things that do not help me in terms of reaching my goals, but those are just minor setbacks and as I have shown it doesn’t take long for me to get back on track. I am a six feet, four and two hundred and seventy pounds finely tuned, finely conditioned machine that is the future of this business, and I am ready, I am primed to take it all, and no one is going to hold me back, nothing is going to stand in the way of my QUEST. And I am not going to let anyone’s personal vendettas to sidetrack me again.
Lex leaves the ring while Flair and Arn look a little confused as to what Luger was talking about but JJ is quick to tell them it’s all right and get them to leave the ring. Jim Ross says when we return Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat will be in action!!!!
Jim Ross: As you can see in the ring, the veteran Bobby Jaggers is in the ring awaiting Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat, but before we get to that, let’s go backstage to Bob Caudle who is with Jim Cornette and Big Bubba Rogers!!!
Bob Caudle: Thank you Jim Ross, and I have to say Jim Cornette, Big Bubba Rogers has gone through just about everyone here in the NWA, but he is in for his biggest challenge tonight against the World Television Champion Nikita Koloff!!!!
Jim Cornette: Yeah, yeah, yeah. We have been hearing it all week Bob Caudle, all week long, everywhere we go everyone is telling us “Nikita Koloff is unstoppable” “Nikita Koloff is a monster” “Can Big Bubba Rogers really beat him” and the answer is YES, YES Big Bubba can beat Nikita Koloff and he is going to do that here tonight. Big Bubba is the ONLY undefeated wrestler here in the NWA, no one has ever pinned this man, no one has ever made this man submit, and Nikita Koloff isn’t about to do it tonight!!!! My momma is already putting together the biggest party the town of Louisville has ever seen for Big Bubba’s victory, and do you think I would let my mama do that if I didn’t know Big Bubba was gonna win here tonight? That would embarrass my mama and I never do ANYTHING to embarrass my mama!!! Nikita Koloff, I told my mama that tonight is the END of your reign as World Television Champion, and I never lie to my mama!!!!
We then fade back to ringside where Jaggers is arguing with fans at ringside. The music then hits!!
And out comes RICKY “THE DRAGON” STEAMBOAT!!!
RICKY STEAMBOAT VS. “HANGMAN” BOBBY JAGGER
Jaggers isn’t someone you can overlook at he takes the fight right to Steamboat at the opening bell!!! Jaggers pounds on Steamboat but when he throws him into the ropes Steamboat ducks a clothesline and comes back with a crossbody block for two!!!! Steamboat and Jaggers trade chops and punches after that with Steamboat backing Jaggers into the corner. Steamboat rains ten punches down on Jaggers head before hip tossing him out of the corner, Steamboat then goes to the top rope and comes off with an attempted big chop, but Jaggers catches him with a punch to the bread basket!!! Jaggers then spends several minutes trying to wear Steamboat down but beating him into the mat. Jaggers locks on a sleeper and it looks like it could be curtains for Steamboat, but the Dragon, spurred on by the cheers of the crowd, fights to his feet, breaks the hold and hits Jaggers with several deep arm drags!!! The Dragon then connects with a dropkick flush in the mush before locking in the double chicken wing!!! Jaggers has no choice but to surrender!!!!!!
WINNER: RICKY “THE DRAGON” STEAMBOAT
Ricky Steamboat rolls out of the ring and is met by David Crockett and a microphone!
David: A great win for you Ricky, but...we have to talk about what happened last week….and I have to know what you thought about what Ric Flair had to say about it earlier.
Ricky: David Crockett, I was on the apron and I could clearly hear Ric Flair say he gave up!!! Now he can come out here, he can make threats and he can try and make people believe that everyone else is lying about it, but the only man that is lying is YOU Ric Flair. Barry Windham made you say I QUIT!!!! Now David Crockett, Barry Windham is my friend and if he gets an opportunity to face Ric Flair for the World Heavyweight Title I think he can make Flair say I Quit, but I also know that in 2 years Ric Flair has not been able to beat me one on one in that ring and on February 26th live on Pay Per View from the Superdome in New Orleans, both Barry and I will be competing in the Bunkhouse Stampede. As you well know David Crockett, the winner of that match will be GUARANTEED a title match with the World Heavyweight Champion, and I am telling you, I am telling the fans, I am telling Barry Windham, Lex Luger and whoever else qualifies for the Stampede between now and then, when that bell rings, all friendships and all alliances GO RIGHT OUT THE WINDOW!!!!
David: ALRIGHT!!! The Dragon is fired up!!! Fans…..don’t you go away because next…...it’s gonna be a big one…...Tully Blanchard and Road Warrior Hawk are going to meet in that ring….we’ll be right back!!!

Tully wastes no time going right to work on the shoulder!!! Tully doesn’t let up as he tries to take away one of Hawk’s wings!!! Hawk is in obvious pain as Tully keeps it up.

Adrian Street’s music is play and “The Exotic One” is standing in the ring with a microphone…..
Street: Hello, hello, hello!!!! I was scheduled to face that whale of a man Dusty Rhodes at this time, but as we saw at the beginning of the program, I do not believe that Mr. Rhodes is going to be able to compete, so it is with great humility that I accept his forfeit and the victory in this match, so Mr. Referee, ring the bell make the count and then declare me------

Dusty: Stinga, I tol you dat the Dweam would have ya back baybee, and I did, but Kebbin Sulliban CHANGED THE GAME IF YOU WILL!!!! Da Debbil himself threw in a wild card in da Mad Dog and they put a hurtin on me an you.

LET’S GIVE ‘EM A FIGHT!!!! DA DWEAM AND THE STINGA ON SIDE THE MAD DOG AND DA DEBBIL ON THE OTHA’ RIGHT HERE ON DA SUPASTATION NEXT WEEK!!!!!!

YOU TWO WANNA THROW THE RULES OUT? SAWYER, YOU THINK YOU CAN TEAR THE STINGER APART?!?! WELL COME ON AND TRY IT!!! LET’S DO IT!!! OOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!
Sting and Dusty high five each other!!!
Jim: The challenge has been made by Sting and The American Dream, and I have a feeling that Sullivan and Sawyer will be more than willing to take them up on it!!!! Now let’s go to some pre recorded comments from a man on his way to the NWA, “Captain Redneck” Dick Murdoch!!!
Murdoch is sitting in a bar with the UWF Title on the table in front of him, Murdoch chugs a beer and then crushes the can in his hand.
Murdoch: “BUUUUURRRRP” You see this belt right here? This is the Universal Wrestling Federation Heavyweight Wrasslin Championship and I won it, then I beat the hell outta everyone and anyone who got in my way and in the end the dang promotion just folded up because everyone was too scared to get in the ring and face me. So I went back to the great state of Texas to drink beer and stay on my farm, and it takes a lot, A WHOLE LOT, to get me outta the state of Texas but something has come along that has done just that. You see, I done everything I ever wanted to do in the world of wrasslin, all but one thing, and that’s win the only World Title that means anything, the National Wrasslin Alliance’s World Heavyweight Title, and when I heard about the Bunkhouse Stampede and the chance to not only beat a bunch of people up and win a bunch of money, but to also get a shot at the World Title, well buddy that just about enough to get me outta Texas. So Ric Flair, Dusty Rhodes, Ricky Steamboat, Lex Luger, Nikita Koloff, Big Bubba Rogers, I don’t care who it is, I’m on my way to the NWA and when I get there I’m gonna beat up everyone in way until I got that World Title.
Murdoch grabs another beer can and chugs it as we fade away.

We fade back to the ring where Nikita Koloff is handing the World Television Title to referee Nick Patrick while Jim Cornette is in the opposite corner giving Big Bubba Rogers some last minute advice!
Jim: I don’t want to take anything away from this upcoming showdown, but my god, the Horsemen may have just broken Barry Windham’s hand!!!!!
Tony: If they didn't they did some major damage to it Jim!!!
