ROMERO BOYZ V ITALLION STALLION + JOEY MAGGS
The crowd does not seem to appreciate the Romero Boyz as they egg on the crowd, and allow their arrogant prancing to give Stallion and Maggs a few comebacks, but in the end the Romeroz prevail with a Chris Romero double leg takedown on Maggs for the pin at 6:33!

Ripper: “I’ll tell you what Eric Bischoff, Ted Arcidi had best focus on his opponent Motor City Madman! Maybe he took the tug of war challenge from Ted Arcidi too soon!
But Arcidi turns the tables on the huge Madman, and look at this: MILITARY PRESSES THE BIG MAN NOT ONCE . . . .NOT TWICE . . . BUT THREE TIMES LIFTS HIM OVER HIS HEAD FOLLOWED BY A SLAM AND A PIN AND THE FANS GO NUTS!

The Khans mug for the camera and slap each other’s chests while Assassin talks.
Assassin: “Make no mistake Iron Mike Sharpe is owed a debt of gratitude by me and Teijho Khan, and I am 100% convinced he and Maya Singh will defeat Chavo Guerrero and Mil Mascaras next week, but when I was able to bring Teijhos uncle, Killer Khan back from Mongolia to the United States, I knew it was a chance to fine tune our organization and bring us one closer to the ultimate goal: the WWA WORLD TAG TEAM TITLES!
“Lazertron, Bugsy McGraw you got by the skin of your teeth in July, but September 9th, you have two Khans working together, mind meshing together and just like their ancestors Genghis and Kublai, a new horde of barbarian invaders will invade California, and spread across the United States to dominate an empire of professional wrestling for years to come!
Eric: “Fans once again, those two men Killer and Teijho Khan versus the popular LAZEERTRON AND BUGSY MCGRAW SEPTEMBER 9!
