World Champion Michael Rotunda enters the ring, Missy Hyatt by his side. He demanded a wrestler who had wrestled in the world’s biggest arenas and I think the man who enters next fits the bill…

UNISPUTED WORLD TITLE MATCH: “MEGABUCKS” MICHAEL ROTUNDA (W/MISSY HYATT) © VS. SD “SPECIAL DELIVERY” JONES: A huge opportunity for Jones and he starts strong, arm dragging and headbutting the champ all over the ring! SD scores some near falls, but misses a charge into the corner and runs shoulder first into the ring post! Rotunda follows up with a pair of double underhook suplexes and then locks in the STF! SD has no alternative-he must submit! Missy raises her man’s hand, then Rotunda grabs the ring mic!
ROTUNDA: Nice try, Watts! I ask for a guy who has wrestled in the big time and you send a ringer! Yeah, SD has been in MSG and the Omni and all of the other big buildings...as an opening match wrestler! Now, we have SHOWDOWN IN SEATTLE coming up! And I have agreed to defend my championship! This time, I demand a main event guy! I mean a guy who has held major championships! I want an international superstar! Somebody worthy to climb into the ring with your Undisputed World Champion! You understand that?
Cowboy Bill Watts is at ringside, he has a mic, too!
WATTS: I hear yo, Mike! If you’ll just look over your shoulder, you’ll see the man deemed number one contender by the UWA, the man you’ll defend that belt against at the Showdown!

PERSONALITY PROFILE:
Les Thatcher stands in the dressing room.
LES: I am waiting for the subject of tonight’s Personality Profile. Cowboy Bob Orton, Jr. is the son of one our all time greats, Bob Orton, Sr. The Cowboy was trained by his father and the great Hiro Matsuda. He stands 6’1 and weighs in at 242 pounds. He created the superplex and very innovative and devastating manuver. I’m joined by Cowboy Bob Orton! Welcome to the UWA, Bob! My first question is the obvious one: What are your goals in the UWA?
Michael Rotunda and Missy Hyatt enter the picture!
ROTUNDA: Bob, great to see you! As Les said, welcome to the United Wrestling Alliance and welcome to the Organization!
LES: WHAT???
ORTON: Les, I’m moving fast these days, daddy! Just got here and I’m side by side with the Undisputed World Champion and the prettiest lady in the territory! Ain’t that what it’s all about? You asked what was next, so I’ll tell ya! You know my old man was the shrewdest negotiator in all of pro wrestling! Well, the apple didn’t fall far from the tree! I’m pretty slick myself! As a clause in my contract, I automatically receive a title match at the Showdown in Seattle! The only title match available was for the prestigious TV Title against Kevin Von Erich! That ignorant Texan goes barefoot because he cant’s even tie his shoes! HA! HA! HA!
ROTUNDA: That was hilarious, Bob! Les Thatcher, can you imagine? Me as World Champion, Bob Orton as your TV Champion! Eventually, Dr. Death, Muraco, and Martel will gold around their waists, too!We will be dominating very, very soon! The Organization is the future!
Rotunda and Orton high five and embrace as Missy applauds!

KERRY, KEVIN, & LANCE VON ERICH VS. KIM DUK, CHICKY STARR, & KEN TIMBS: The Von Erichs use their speed and athleticism to gain an early advantage. The heels turn the tables as Kim Duk lands a karate thrust to Lance’s throat and the big Korean gets heat on the Von Erich cousin for a few minutes. After Lance takes a beating for a few minutes, he makes a diving tag to Kerry! The “Modern Day Warrior” kicks some serious tail and pins Starr with the Iron Claw to win the bout for his team!

Boni Blackstone stands by…
BONI: I’m here with a man who has made a big impression in a short amount of time...SCOTT HALL! Scott, we have SHOWDOWN IN SEATTLE coming up on TNT on April 5th! Will you be a part of that great card!
SCOTT: Boni, that would be great! A huge TV audience watching all around the world! I’ve asked Cowboy Bill about it and he says he’ll try to find the right opponent for me to take on!
BONI: Hold on, what are you two doing here?
It’s Sir Oliver Humperdink and Big John Studd!
SOH: Scott Hall, good to see you, young man! I’m sir Oliver and this is the one true giant of professional wrestling: Big John Studd! A few weeks back, I announced that I am expanding my House of Humperdink! I believe that their was a language barrier and Mr. Tsuruta couldn’t understand the benefits that a member of the House enjoys! Fortunately, you speak the King’s English! I’m very impressed and I’m offering you membership in the House of Humperdink! John here can tell you about how great it is! You know what? The two of you would make an awesome tag team!
HALL: I think we’d make even better opponents!
STUDD: WHAT?
HALL: I’d rather fight against you than with you! Is that easier to understand, big boy?
SOH: I’d advise you not to start something you can’t finish!
HALL: Oh, I can finish it! How about your big guy against me at the Showdown?
SOH: You’re saying “no” to the House of Humperdink?
HALL: I didn’t stutter!
STUDD: Let me have him, boss! I’ll run him outta here just like I did Nord!
SOH: You asked for it, punk! You’re lucky that three of my men are in the next match or I’d stay here and thrash you myself!
Hall mockingly “hides” behind Boni!
STUDD: Wait until I get you in Seattle, punk!
The heels leave in a huff!
BLACKJACK MULLIGAN & TEXAS BRONCOS VS. THE MOONDOGS & THE GREAT KOKINA(W/SIR OLIVER HUMPERDINK): Windham and Rhodes seem to be out of sync here this week while Mulligan is his usual tail kicking self! The bad guys get heat on Rhodes for several minutes, giving the beating of his young life! Eventually, the match turns into a pier six brawl with the Broncos slugging it out with Humperdink’s men. It looks like the heels have the advanatge! Blackjack rolls out of the ring! Is the legendary Texan running from a fight? NO! MULLIGAN GRABS A STEEL CHAIR! Blackjack re-enters the ring! Blackjack clobbers Spot! He nails Rex! He swings at Kokina! SOH grabs the big Samoan’s leg and trips him! Kokina is oput of the way, but BJM swings wildly! MULLIGAN BASHES DUSTIN RHODES WITH A CHAIR!!! Dustin is lying on the mat! This looks bad. Kendall Windham walks over to his partner. He looks down at him...shakes his head… there’s a look of utter disgust on Kendall’s face! Blackjack is pointing to Dustin and talking to Kendall. Kendall is nodding. Blackjack and his son leave, arm in arm. They don’t even offer to help Dustin Rhodes! What in the world is going on here? Cowboy Bill Watts an every referee in the building climb in the ring to tend to young Rhodes. Eventually, they get him on his feet and he leaves the ring!
LES: Boni, when Dudtin comes by there, see if you can get a word with him! We need to get to the bottom of this!
We got to the interview area where Boni stands by. Rhodes staggers into the picture, holding his head and looking woozy.
BONI: Dustin! I’m sorry to bother you, but can I get a comment on what just occurred?
DUSTIN: Boni, I don’t know if I’m in any shape to talk! I can barely stand up!
BONI: (to somebody off screen) Can you get a chair for him?
A stagehand brings out a chair and Dustin sits.
DUSTIN: Thanks! OK, Boni, here’s all I know, honey! Bobby Jack…
BONI: Blackjack you’re talking about…
DUSTIN: Yeah, my dad always calls him “Bobby Jack”, well, he’s been outta control lately. I tell KW, “Kendall, we gotta calm your daddy down!” He keeps saying, “Nobody’s gonna turn me against my father!” I don’t wanna do that! I’m the last guy in the world who’d turn a man against his father! Boni, I’m sorry, I need to get checked out by a doctor or something!
Bill Watts and Scott LeDoux come out, help Dustin up, and assist him to the locker room.
BONI: I don’t like the sounds of this!
MAGNUM: Sounds like a misunderstanding has exploded into a really bad situation here in the UWA!

BABY DOLL: Ain’t he the sexiest man ever?
BONI: (uncomfortable) Uhm, well, he’s certainly attractive, Baby Doll! Let me ask you something, Baby Doll-Tito Santana seems to be disappointed in your decision to associate yourself with this man…
BABY DOLL: Oh, that, Tito! He thinks women should be barefoot and pregnant, cooking enchaladas on a kitchen somewhere! He still treats me like I’m a little girl in pigtails! Tito, I’m all grown up now, maybe you should grow up, too!
TITO IS HERE!!!!
TITO: Nickla, your family is worried! You don’t answer you phone! They haven’t heard from you since you started hanging out with this...this...I can’t even say the words on television! Don’t you know about this man’s repuatation, Baby Doll?
PEREZ: You better just cool it, Ese!
TITO: Perez, I’ve heard about how you treat women! So help me, if anything happens to this girl, I’ll…
PEREZ: I think I see the problem, Baby Doll! I think Tito here wants you for himself!
TITO: You lowlife! I’m a happily married man and this girl is like a little sister to me!
PEREZ: Oh, mamacita, this is a sick, sick man!
TITO AIN’T HAVING THIS! SANTANA SLUGS AWAY ON PEREZ! PEREZ FIGHTS BACK! WE HAVE A SLOBBERKNOCKER ON OUR HANDS!

SEMIFINAL MATCH: JUNIOR HEAVYWEIGHT #1 CONTENDER TOURNAMENT: DEAN MALENKO VS. RANGER ROSS: The winner of this one will take on Scotty the Body in the finals next week! Ross is skilled in the martial arts and he uses those tactics to keep Malenko off balance for most of the bout. The tide turns when Ross goes for anaerial move and the crafty Malenko avoids it! Ros comes up limping and Malenko targets the leg ! Malenko eventually locks in the Texas Cloverleaf and Ross has no choice! Malenko advances to the finals with a submission win! Sgt. Slaughter runs in to tend to his Cobra Corps comrade as Malenko shakes hands with referee TommY Gilbert and leaves in businesslike way.
MAGNUM: Scotty the Body is really good and very cocky! Malenko is the kind of guy who can beat the cockiness out of somebody!
