Luna grabs Lance’s tie and cuddles it to Lance’s discomfort!

Landell: “Well THANK YOU VERY MUCH, Bob Caudle. I am here to just say I want ALL the viewers in TVLand to watch NEXT WEEK, and you will all see why Buddy Landell is the victim, I’m the innocent one. First that no good Ronnie Garvin cost me the National title at Clash of the Champions, I SHOULD BE holding that belt, the tape will be clear next week, and all of you fans will be asking: why should I be forced to wrestle that thug, that pugilist, Ronne Garvin, who can’t wrestle like a gentleman, only brawl, in a taped fist match at WrestleWar?
“It’s not fair, it’s not right, I should be DEFENDING the National Heavyweight title at Wrestlewar instead of being brought down to your level sir, Ronnie Garvin it was a voluminous act of barbaric brutality, and when the fans watch next week, they’ll see why BUDDY LANDELL is the man they should be looking up to for leadership and as an example, and not that hoodlum RON GARVIN!

NON-TITLE MATCH
“THE ROOSTER” TERRY TAYLOR V OWEN HART
Owen is in the ring as Taylor comes out to his robe and sunglasses to “TV Dinners” by ZZ Topp (I’ve been using it it since Houston folks)
Landell takes his time with his sunglasses and robe and OWEN HART TAKES ADVANTAGE WITH A DROPKICK THAT TAKES LANDELL OUT OF THE RING! TOPE BY HART, AND DOWN GOES TAYLOR AS THE STUDIO GOES NUTS!
David: “BOB! OWEN! LOOK AT ‘IM TERRY TOOK HIS EYE OFF THE BALL AND OWEN GAVE HIM SOME OF THAT SWEET CHIN MUSIC!
Owen throws the US Champion back into the ring and fires up, and goes right after Taylor punching kicking and throwing him into the turnbuckle until Owen charges Taylor, but the Rooster quickly steps aside and Owen blasts himself into the turnbuckle, falls backwards and the Rooster quickly tries twice to cover him in a panic but Owen kicks out both times. Taylor knees him in the back, and picks him up slowly, and is clearly in control now.
Taylor puts heat on Owen, but every time he tries to pin or submit him, Hart kicks out or gets to the ropes. David reminds the fans that even in a non-title match, should Owen get an upset, he gets an automatic rematch as per WWW rules.
Owen recovers and bows up to Terry and has him on his back heel in the corner with kicks and punches. Fans we must take a break, if anything happens while we are gone, cameras are taping!

Lance: “Well, Jimmy, the floor is all yours. Last week Manny Fernandez challenged you to a match at WrestleWar. If he wins, he gets to take off that ridiculous thing on your head, in return you name the stip you want. Do you accept?
Jimmy: “For the second time, Lance this ‘ridiculous’ thing on my head is a special ‘hair system’ designed to treat the luxurious mane of hair under it to look greater than ever!
Lance: "Well, Jimmy, if your 'hair' looks so great why don't you take that silly thing off and show us?
Jimmy: "Nice try Banana Nose but it takes weeks, even MONTHS for this system to reach perfection!
Lance: "Well, after you got your head shaved by Manny Fernandez I have to say, that Hair System must also regrow hair really really fast, haha!
Jimmy: "Lance? I ask you. WHERE IS THE PROOF? Show all these millions of fans my head getting shaved at Clash of the Champions. The footage does not exist!
Lance: "Well we all know that is why that is . . .
Jimmy: "You have something to say, Lance Russell? An accusation to make? . . . . . .HA I didn't think so!
"As for your challenge, Manny Fernandez, I ACCEPT under this stipulation:
“Because of all my success, and brutal travel schedule I have not been home a lot. Weeds have been overgrown . . . bushes and shrubs need to be planted. . .. trees need to be trimmed . .. and MORE. And there is no one I can think of ANYONE that can do a better job of landscaping my home more than someone of YOUR background, Manny Fernandez!
