It can be on top of Diamond Head, brother, it can be on top of Mauna Loa with lava spouting all over place, it can even be on the cliffs of Waimea Canyon, brother, anytime anywhere me and Afa are here to prove we are NUMBER ONE!

PURPLE HAZE MARK LEWIN is in a suit with sunglasses AND with KING CURTIS JOINS LORD JAMES!
Curtis: “LOOOOOORD JAMES BLEARS! Thanks to the magic of television we have seen MANY MANY IMPRESSIVE WRESTLERS WHO WOULD MAKE GREAT CONTENDERS FOR THIS PACIFIC HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE, BUT YET, WHO HAS MADE THE SACRIFICE? WHO HAS PROVEN THAT THEY HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO PUT IT AAAAAAAAALL ON THE LIIIIIINE TO CHALLENGE THE PURPLE HAZE, DADDY?
Mark: “King Curtis is right, Lord James! And you know what that tells the Haze? HAWAII IS RUNNING SCARED! EVERYONE is afraid to face the Purple Haze! Because as I said last week, not only do you have to sacrifice to get a shot the Pacific title . . . . even after you do . . . .
LEWIN TAKES OFF THE SUNGLASSES AND DOES THE EYEBALLS UP BEHIND THE EYELID THING, THIS IS GROSS!
“ . . . . YOU WILL SUFFER NOTHING BUT PAAAAAAAAIN!!!!
Lord: “All right well I think we have heard enough. Will someone do what is required to earn a title match against this man, as per Mark Lewin? We will be right back!

Lord James: “Fans, please join me in welcoming another pair of Hawaii favorites, SUPER SAKALIA and . . . . SIVA AFI!
Lord replays comments directed at them last week from King Curtis as it pertains to Sawdi Sudan and Jerry Blackwell!
Siva: “You know, I was somewhat surprised, Lord James. At first I thought, ‘What is Sawdi Sudan’s problem? What is Jerry Blackwell’s beef with us?’ I don’t remember me or Sakalia here having crossed their paths, EVER, RIGHT big man?
Both Afi and Sakalia shrug their shoulders.
Siva: “Then I quickly figured it out. Sudan and Blackwell are just paid mercenaries to carry out someone else’s agenda: that of KING CURTIS. You see Lord James the ugly truth is this: from San Francisco to Honolulu to Australia to Japan and all points between, I HAVE ALWAYS GOTTEN THE BETTER OF KING CURTIS, whether he was in the ring as a wrestler or as a manager paying someone to do his dirty work! OK King Curtis, bring in your thugs, your goons, I have this man who has my back, as a matter of fact, why don’t we make it Oct 15 at Blaze at Blaisdell?
“And then, when me and the Superman dispose of your flunkies, I have a suggestion for YOU King Curtis . . . . . .maybe you step up for YOURSELF, and we can settle this decades long beef: ONE ON ONE!

ROCKY + RICKY JOHNSON v JACK ARMSTRONG + JIMMY BACKLUND
The bell rings and while Rocky handles most of the workload, Ricky shines and frustrates Jack Armstrong and Jimmy Backlund, and gets the pin on Backlund with a Rocky Johnson Boston crab as he and his long-lost father celebrate!

SAMMY STEAMBOAT joins Lord James and Rocky and Ricky to start the closeout of the program. Sammy announces that on 10/15 DON MURACCO AND JIMMY SNUKA will return to Hawaii as part of Blaze at Blaisdell and that he will work on a SAWDI SUDAN + JERRY BLACKWELL V SIVA AFI + SUPER SAKALIA match that night as well!
Rocky: “You know Mr. Steamboat, for two weeks now Mark Lewin has come out here and said he will only defend that Pacific Heavyweight title, 2/3 falls, against whoever makes a worthy ‘sacrifice’. Mark Lewin, I see me challenging YOU for that title at Blaze at Blaisdell 10/15 so enough of the riddles, enough of the obfuscation, what will it take for ROCKY JOHNSON TO GET A SHOT AT THAT BELT! I’ll be waiting to hear from YOU, Purple Haze!
