Don Coss
Don Coss opens the program from the crow's nest!
Don Coss: Welcome everyone to Portland Wrestling ... I'm your host Don Coss for 60 minutes of action-packed wrestling from the Portland Sports Arena! It is great to be back on the air and before we go any further in tonight's program, let me turn things over to Don Owen ...
Don Owen
Don Owen: Thank you, Don Coss. Before we get underway tonight, I'd like to give thanks to all of those who have supported us through the years and helped get us back on television right here on KPTV-television. A special thanks to all our fans and sponsors, especially Tom Peterson. Back to you, Don.
Back to the crow's nest and Don Coss who is quickly joined by a sharply dressed Tina Ferrari, carrying not one, not two but three title belts.
Don Coss: And to what do we owe the pleasure of this ...
Tina Ferrari: Put a sock in it, Coss. I'm not here to dispense pleasantries with you or anyone else in this place. What I am here to do is to get justice ... to make sure that a wrong gets righted and I MEAN RIGHT NOW!
Don Coss: I'm not sure what you mean or exactly why you are carrying all of those belts.
Tina Ferrari: Why am I carrying these belts? Let me fill you in Don Coss. As the Executrix of the Buddy Rose Army, I am here to see that anything and everything belonging to the Buddy Rose Army gets back to it's rightful owner.
Don Coss: Wait one second, you mean to tell me that you represent Buddy Rose and his Army in his absence? You can't be serious?
Tina Ferrari: I am and I am. Now, get me someone out here who can fix this!
Don Coss: Fix what exactly?
Tina Ferrari: Don Coss, my patience is starting to wear very thin ...
Don Coss: I can see that. Maybe Don Owen can come out here and shed some light? Don, what's the meaning of all this?
Don Owen: What Miss Ferrari is referring to is that Buddy Rose and his associates in his Army were the title holders before we went off the air months ago. Miss Ferrari here has presented me with paperwork representing Buddy Rose's interests while he is away from the Portland territory. While the paperwork appears to be on the up and up, Miss Ferrari has been presented with both the Heavyweight Title as well as the Tag team Titles in the interim. IF I find things are not on the up and up, there will be trouble Miss Ferrari ... in the meantime, I hope you have a direct line to Buddy Rose and his associates because the Heavyweight Title WILL be defended right here next week at the Portland Sports Arena!
Tina Ferrari: Wait ... What? WHAT?!?!?!?!
Don Owen: You heard me Miss Ferrari. The Heavyweight Title will be defended right here next week and as for your other request ... as I told you earlier, the answer is still no. No, you will be handed the Television Title. Mike Miller is the rightful Television Champion and was ousted from the Clan. Any dealings between the Clan and the Buddy Rose Army do not include Mr. Miller.
Tina Ferrari: YOU CAN'T DO THAT!
Don Owen: Yes, Miss Ferrari ... I can and I did.
Don Coss: There you have it folks! We have to take a break but we'll be right back for our first match of the evening!

We return to Don Coss in the crow's nest.
Don Coss: Long time Portland Wrestling Legend Tony Borne welcoming us back to the airwaves. Let's head to the ring as Al Madril welcomes rookie Scotty the Body to the Portland Sports Arena!
1st Match: Scotty the Body versus Al Madril
10 Minute Time Limit - Referee Sandy Barr
Madril heels it up the ring while the handsome Scotty plays the babyface. Match goes the same way as Madril attacks before the bell and beats the rookie around the ring, all the while talking to the booing fans. Looks like an easy night for Madril until a little come ack by the kid, stopped only by a thumb to the eye. More of a beating with the cocky Madril even pulling Scotty's head up before a three count drawing more ire from the fans. Kharma bites Madril on the ass as he continues jawing with the fans allowing that small window of opportunity for Scotty the Body to pull off the inside cradle for the three count!
Don Coss: OH MY! SCOTTY THE BODY WITH THE UPSET VICTORY!
Madril is beside himself as he complains to referee Barr before shoving him back. Barr stands up to Madril while Scotty leaves the ring in a hurry, watching Madril and Barr. He never sees the blindside as a short man in a keffiyeh and Arabic robes leads three similarly dressed men out from the back. After one canes Scotty across the back, the other two jump in and beat him to a bloody pulp.
Don Coss: WHAT IS GOING ON HERE! CAN WE GET SECURITY OUT HERE! HERE COMES THE CAVALRY! COCOA SAMOA! BRADY BOONE! STEVE DOLL!
We have a free for all as the six men go at it tooth and nail!
Don Coss: We have to break away for a station identification!
x-x-x-x-x COMMERCIAL BREAK x-x-x-x-x
---------- TAPED MESSAGE ----------
It is Roddy Piper standing in front of the WWF banner.
Roddy Piper: Don, I'd like to congratulate you for all the years of Portland Wrestling and wish you many, many more.
---------- TAPED MESSAGE ----------
We return to find the Arabic four in the crow's nest we Don Coss.
Don Coss: What's the meaning of this?
Short Man: You do not speak! I speak! There is no more Buddy Rose Army! There is no more Clan! There is only ABU WIZAL! I BRING THE POWER TO PORTLAND WRESTLING NOW! I BRING ABUDA DEIN! I BRING ABUDA SINGH! I BRING SHEIK ALI FARAT! PORTLAND TREMBLE IN FEAR OF ABU WIZAL!
Wizal ushers his men quickly away as Cocoa Samoa, Brady Boone and Steve Doll chase them from the nest.
Don Coss: Cocoa Samoa, Brady Boone and Steve Doll come to the rescue of Scotty the Body from the clutches of this Abu Wizal and his men ...
Cocoa Samoa: Don Coss, brudda Cocoa Samoa's not gunna stand by and let dez guys beat this kid! Abu Wizal ... brudda, you da big man in town now? You taking over for Buddy Rose and his army? You stepping in for Da Clan? Cocoa Samoa gunna call you out! Me and dez two guys ... Brady Boone, Steve Doll ... we face your guys, Wizal! Tell'em Brady!
Brady Boone: Don Owen make this match! We'll show this Wizal you can't come in here and run over people without someone pushing you right back!
Steve Doll: WOOOOO ... you said it, Brady. Let's get this match going, right now! These good people here want to see us get some payback for Scotty! Make this match, Don Coss!
Don Coss: Order has been restored and we'll see if Don Coss can get a match signed but right, let's go to the ring!
2nd Match: TV Title Match: Mike Miller (C) versus Bill Cody
10 Minute Time Limit - Referee Bill Alfonso
Showcase for the TV champ that is never in doubt as he dominates. Cody with a small comeback that is quickly ended by a running boot to the face and the "Louisiana Legdrop" for the victory.
A split crowd reaction as "Mean" Mike helps his opponent to his feet afterwards.

---------- TAPED MESSAGE ----------
Stan Stasiak: Welcome back Portland Wrestling ... the best in professional wrestling!
---------- TAPED MESSAGE ----------
The TV Champ has joined Don Coss in the crow's nest.
Don Coss: Congratulations are in order, Mike.
Mike Miller: Thank you, Don Coss.
Don Coss: At the risk of a punch in the mouth, I gotta ask you about your ties to Rip Oliver and the Clan, apparently the argument for Miss Tina Ferrari to strip you of the TV Title and return it to her ...
Mike Miller: Don't worry, Don, I save my fighting for the ring. To answer your question, Rip Oliver ain't here in Portland. The Clan ain't here in Portland and Mike Miller ain't part of the Clan. I think that sums it up pretty good. Now, if this Tina Ferrari wants this here title belt ... I'll be more than happy to step into the ring to face anyone who belongs to her little Army.
Don Coss: Long term plans, Mike?
Mike Miller: It's simple ... I'm gonna defend the belt against anyone who signs on the dotted line and I'm gonna keep my nose clean from running into any of the new Clan's and Buddy Rose Armies that pop along the way. Ya see, Don Coss, it seems to cause me more problems than does me good.
Don Coss: Alright ... some words of wisdom from the Television Champion, "Mean" Mike Miller! Up next, however, we go to 6-man tag team action as Abu Wizal's men face the team of Cocoa Samoa, Brady Boone and Steve Doll. Let's go to the ring!
3rd Match: 6-Man Tag Match: Abuda Dein, Abuda Singh & Sheik Ali Farat versus Cocoa Samoa, Brady Boone & Steve Doll
2 out of 3 Falls - TV Time Remaining - Referee Sandy Barr
1st Fall
Things escalate very quickly into a brawl that has all 6 men in the ring at the same time, making a nightmare for referee Sandy Barr. The annoying Wizal constantly directing his men in and out of the ring also serves as a distraction for his team. Wizal plays a part in his team stealing the first fall, knocking Steve Doll's foot from the ropes, giving the Abuda Dein the fall.
x-x-x-x-x COMMERCIAL BREAK x-x-x-x-x
---------- TAPED MESSAGE ----------
Dutch Savage: Portland Wrestling ... I would never count you out!
---------- TAPED MESSAGE ----------
Right back to the match for the second fall!
2nd Fall
No rest for the weary as the fired up losers of the first fall are determined not to let it happen a second time. Fast tags and double teaming are the order of the day in this second frame as the "good guys" work over Wizal's men. Highlight round for Boone, Doll and Samoa who knocks off Farat with a diving head butt from the middle rope to pick up the pinfall, evening up things at 1 fall apiece.
3rd Fall
Mad scramble to pick up the deciding pinfall with time running out for both sides. A little bit of everything with the two sides kicking out of covers at 2 and 9/10ths that brings the fans very much into the match. Abu Wizal being knocked from the ring apron to the floor brings the biggest cheer of the evening while Abuda Singh laying out Brady Boone with a cane shot which led to a brawl involving everyone before Sandy Barr regains control of things b disqualfying both parties.
The camera returns to Don Coss.
Don Coss: "That's all for this episode of Portland Wrestling. Tune in next week for more wrestling from the House of Action ... because you just never know what you're going to see! Good night!"
