Mercer, “Welcome, again, to ‘World Class Championship Wrestling’. We have another exciting hour for you. You will see Bobby Jaggers, Chris Adams and the Long Riders, but the one they are talking about, Kevin Von Erich takes on Gino Hernandez with the American Heavyweight Title at stake.

Kevin, “Marc, I want that title. Hernandez is good, you can’t take that away from him, but he’s not someone Texas can be proud of. He and Gary Hart break all the rules, so I have to be ready for that, but I’m going to take that title. I owe it to the fans!”
Lowrance, “The next thing I’ll ask is about the Six Man Titles. It looks like the Champions, Mad Dog Lefebvre, Frenchy Martin and Sailor White, are going to be at the State Fair Coliseum on the 26th. They are signed to wrestle someone else, but I am sure you will get your chance at them.”
Kerry, “We wanted the match that night, but we didn't get it. They’ll have to wrestle us soon and we’ll get those titles back.”

He returns and slows the pace. Gino uses every dirty trick in the book and things turn his way. Kevin is in trouble. Gino uses a piledriver and goes for the pin. Kevin is close enough to the ropes to get his foot on them. That was probably all he could do. The Sportatorium crowd gets behind Kevin. He draws strength from them and rallies.
