Bill announces a big card of wrestling will indeed take place in San Antonio St Patrick’s Day March 17 and with all the tension building between principles in all three championship races, it should be a barnburner!

NON TITLE MATCH

Mark Van Halen and Sam Houston join Steve and Bill and insist that the Russians new aggressive attitude is because they humiliated them after their match in New Orleans Christmas night, made them look foolish, and are now in their heads, and now perhaps Mar 17 in San Antonio would be a great opportunity to settle their differences once and for all!

The Masked Texan makes another taped appearance. He responds to Greg Valentines accusations that he does not deserve a shot at the world title by making it clear that he will make his presence known shortly, and that once all is said and done, Greg Valentine will be forced to defend the title against him! Who IS this guy??

Like the team of Conway and Bad News. Volkoff and The Baron are looking tough. Valentine must be fuming at this masked challenger.
