Ken Resnick and Don Coss welcome the fans to another week of Rage TV. Last week we saw the trio of Rip Olver, Ed Wiskoski and the Pacific Coast heavyweight champion “Diamond” Tim Flowers show their strength in that main event. We saw the Russians have come with manager Don Callis. This week however, we are going to see some more huge action. Hercules Hernandez will take on Curtis Thompson. Don Callis will be here with his newest charge. Jesse Barr will be in action and in the main event, Callis’s Russian challenge from last week has been answered. Curt Hennig, “All American” Ron Simmons, and “Hacksaw” Sawyer will take on Callis’s Russian team, The Bolsheviks. All this and so much more this week on Rage TV.

**The Pacific Coast television champion, “The Dirty White Boy” Tony Anthony, is with Don Coss in the Crows Nest. He says that he still has his belt. He is still defending it against all comers and it don’t matter who it is. He will defend this belt all across the territory and in to any other. All anyone has to do is come step up and see what a beating really is. He is interrupted by the masked Top Gun. Gun asks if the DWB meant it when he said he would defend the title anywhere, any time. DWB asks if Top Gun’s mask is too tight and can’t hear right. That is what he said. Top Gun said great. He thought DWB said that. So next week he won’t have a problem getting in the ring and defending that belt. DWB, getting angry now asks again if Top Gun has hearing problems because DWB will defend the belt anytime, anywhere. Top Gun nods and says he will see DWB next week then. DWB tells Top Gun to be careful for what you wish for because you just might get it.

We are back and Resick and Coss discuss the Pacific Coast television title match set for next week. It will be a hard hitting match as Top Gun is a legend in the Pacific Northwest and Dirty White Boy is known for his toughness. It will be a great match for sure. Right now we are sent to the ring as John Kronus is waiting for his opponent. Don Callis leads this savage looking guy to the ring. The savage doesn’t even wait for the bell before he starts the brawl.

Callis has his Savage in the Crows Nest. He introduces his Savage as Samoan Savage to the crowd. He says that his Savage is here to join Callis’s international group of warriors. No one is safe, from his stable. From the tag team champions falling to Volkoff & Zhukov to the Pacific Coast heavyweight title. He tells Flowers Sorry but his “Russian Nightmare” is going to hold that belt, to his newest charge, the Samoan Savage taking the Pacific Coast TV title. Coss mentions how both Top Gun and DWB are going to have a match and neither man is easy to beat. Callis just says that none of those two can do what his Savage just did to John Kronus. Everyone get ready because Don Callis is about to take over the wrestling world.

We are back and it is time for Jesse Barr to come to the ring. Resnick and Coss discuss Barr’s loss last week and his heinous attack after the match with Curtis Thompson. This week he takes on capable wrestle, Barry Horowitz in what can be a technical master class of wrestling…as long as Barr can keep his temper in check.

We are in the Crows Nest with Don Coss when Jim Cornette shows up. He says that in his travels the name Cornette is synonymous with tag team gold and world champions. When he heard there was a territory his Midnight Express didn’t dominate in, he had to come and bring them to it just to do that. Next week marks the first week the Midnight Express takes over the Pacific Northwest. They don’t care who holds the tag belts. It can be the Rock N’ Roll RPMs. It can be Bad Company. It can be the Russians monsters. It can be the Malenkos. It can be any tag team in the history of this area and the Midnight Express will show why they are the best tag team in the world today. And on top of that, who knows…maybe Jim will bring another in to the fold and get some singles gold too. Coss thanks him as we go to the final commercial.

The final commercial is done and Resnick announces to the fans that it is time for the main event. Last week all three Bolsheviks under Don Callis issued an open challenge and some red blooded Americans stood up and said they will be here. Now is that time. We head to the ring as Callis brings his Russians down amid a huge chorus of boos from the crowd. Those boos change to loud cheers when Curt Hennig leads “Hacksaw” Sawyer and “All American” Ron Simmons to the ring for battle.

MAIN EVENT (6-Man Tag): The Bolsheviks w. Don Callis def. Curt Hennig/”Hacksaw” Bret Sawyer/Ron Simmons after Hennig was attacked outside of the ring by Rip Oliver & Wiskoski while the official is distracted by the Pacific Coast Heavyweight champion, Tim Flowers. Throwing Hennig back in the ring, he stands up only to be hit with the Russian Sickle clothesline from Koloff

Flowers, Oliver, and Wiskoski are in the Crows Nest after the main event. Flowers asks Coss if they understand what just happened here before explaining what happened was Hennig learned a valuable lesson. Last week he got involved in a matter that wasn’t his and now he has paid the price. The best part is, Flowers didn’t have to do any of it. The lesson is learned. Don’t mess with the Clan. Resnick tells the fans to stay tuned next week for more Rage TV.
