Steve: “Fans it is our pleasure to announce a MAJOR event JUNE 3 at the Sam Houston Coliseum right here in Houston where not only will a NEW WORLD CHAMPION will be crowned, but also new WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! Bill, can you fill us in?
Bill: “I sure can Steve. June 3 will see the top 8 wrestlers in the world compete in a single elimination tournament to decide something that, despite what Federal Government claims, this sport has NEVER HAD. . . ONE UNDISPUTED WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION. I said it last week, a negative will be turned into a positive.
“We have sent invites all around the world to all the top champions of past several years . . .and have invited them to Houston June 3 to lay it all on the line and lets decide once and for all, who is the Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World? And Steve, with a clean slate thanks to Uncle Sam, what a better time than NOW to finally crown an UNDISPUTED World Heavyweight Champion, right here in Houston?
“But also that night: we will crown new WWU World Tag Team Champions. The finals of a tournament were started right here on TV last week and in just a few minutes, as a matter of fact, the second quarterfinal match will be held, with the finals to be held that night. AND, Steve ALL of the tag team tournament matches leading up that June 3 final will be held RIGHT HERE ON CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING FROM HOUSTON, right here at Gilley’s!
Steve: “WOW! Houston: THE NEW CAPITAL OF THE WRESTLING WORLD! And that’s right fans later in this hour, the first quarterfinal match of that World Tag team Tournament will be held later this hour, as mentioned before it will be Les Thornton and Houston’s own TIGER CONWAY JUNIOR versus Angelo Mosca and Rick McGraw.
“Now fans, last week we saw Killer Brooks and Mark Lewin, managed by Don Carson advance into the semifinals. Here are the final four tag teams who will wrestle each other for the World Tag team titles in this tournament: next week Ivan Putski and SD Jones will wrestle NIKOLAI VOLKOFF AND BARON VON RASHCKE . . . and in two weeks it will be CYCLONE NEGRO AND KENDO NAGASAKI versus an exciting newcomer, SAM HOUSTON and get this his tag team partner:

Bill: “That’s right Steve and I can tell you we are expecting the first RSVPs to come through the mail for that Undisputed World Heavyweight title tournament by next week, so we hope we can announce a few names by then.

Steve and Bill are joined by Larry Sharpe and his tag team of NIKOLAI VOLKOFF AND BARON VON RASCHKE! Larry smokes a big cigar. Volkoff is as you would expect him wearing his bug furry hat an offensive Soviet flag; the Baron in his cape wearing an eye monocle.
Steve: “With an awesome tag team, here he is from New Jersey, the creator of the world famous MONSTER FACTORY, Pretty Boy Larry Sharpe:
Larry: “Houston, the MONSTER FACTORY IS HERE IN TEXAS, and behold all you roughnecks, rednecks, and cowpokes: adjust the rabbit ears on your black and white television sets and uncross your eyes as you are looking at the most devastating combination to ever set foot in this wretched place, your NEXT World Tag team champions and future idols, Nikolai Volkoff and Baron Von Rashke!
Nikolai: “Comrade Larry Sharpe . . . America is weak and corrupt! I drive through Texas and all I see are slums, ghettos and people living in travel trailer, in Russia everyone live in 2 story home with Cadillac in every drive way! I drive through Texas and see skinny, sickly cattle. Let me tell you Comrades in Russia our cows TWICE size of this so called Texas steer.
“It prove Russia way of life superior in every way, and next week Nikolai Volkoff and Honorable Baron Von Raschke under guidance of Comrade Larry Monster Factory from New Jersey Soviet Socialist Republic we will defeat imperialists and become World Tag Team Champions!
Baron Von Raschke: “Nikolai Volkoff, Der People Vant to Know, who will be World Tag Team Champions? Der is no doubt, der people are LOOKING AT DEM!!! Whatever superior Russian giant Nikolai Volkoff leave in ring for Mighty Baron, I vill SQUEEZE THEIR BRAINS OUT WITH MIGHTY IRON CLAW!! ARRRRRRRRR!
Steve: “Well, there they go, Larry Sharpe and his called Monster Factory, Nikolai Volkoff and Baron Von Rashke, and Bill Watts while none of us agree with their message I’d reckon they ARE odds on favorites for the title belts.
Bill: “I don’t like what they just said either Steve but it’s up to one of the 6 other great tag teams remaining in this tournament to shut them up and keep them from winning those belts!
Steve: “Lets go to the ring!
