BONI: I am joined by the former World Tag Team Champions, Bobby Fulton and Tommy Rogers, the Fantastics! Guys, my first question is directed at Tommy: How is the neck feeling and what are your doctors telling you?
TOMMY: Thanks you for your concern and thanks to all of our great fans for their cards and letters and prayers! I had a doctor’s visit just a few days ago. Bobby went along with me. We got good news! The doctor has cleared me to wrestle! The Fantastics are back!
BOBBY: You know what they say paybacks are like, don’tcha, Boni? Blackjack Mulligan made the mistake of signing an open contract for the Destruction Crew to wrestle at the Firecracker Spectacular on July 4th! Guess who stopped by Bill Watts’ office on the way home from the doctor’s office to sign that contract?
BONI: You two?
TOMMY: That’s right, Boni! The Destruction Crew did a number on meand now, we’re gonna show them that we don’t back down to anybody!
They cut to a backstage camera. Mike Enos and Wayne Bloom are watching a monitor and they are irate! Mulligan, also watching, is trying to calm his team down, but it isn’t working! They are irate at this new development!

Jerry Morrow and Dr. X stand waiting in the ring. Then, the music plays….
Here come two of the most popular men in the UWA!
JUNKYARD DOG & “BOOGIE WOOGIE MAN” JIMMY VALIANT VS. DR. X & JERRY MORROW: JYD and Valiant will be involved as lumberjacks later tonight when Al Perez takes on Tito Santana and be in an 8 man tag team match at FIRECRACKER SPECTACULAR against Badness Unlimited. Tonight, they dominate the action and JYD pins the masked man after a Big Thump powerslam.
VTR:
Tito Santana is standing in front of the UWA Fury logo.
TITO: Tonight is the night, Perez! It’s a lumberjack match! Three of my friends and three of yours! Nobody leaves the ring and nobody interferes! It’s a shame that a match like this exists! If you would fight like a man, we wouldn’t need to have a lumberjack match! Baby Doll, your father was an honest man, a decent man, and a man’s man! What do you see in a jerk like Perez? It doesn’t matter! With the fans on my side and my friends backing me up, I’m ready! Perez, Bad News Brown, Soultaker, Larry Cameron! I’m ready for anything you have planned! I have the best friends a guy could have on my side-the Boogie Woogie Man, JYD, and Ronnie Garvin! They are ready! I am ready! Are you ready, Perez? ARRIBA!

RON GARVIN & STEVE KEIRN VS. AXL ROTTEN & MAX THRASHER: Les says that Rotten and Thrasher are up and coming wrestlers on the East Coast. Tonight, they have to deal with two veterans in Keirn and Garvin. The match degenerates into a brawl. Keirn attempts a sunset flip on Thrasher, but Thrasher won’t go down! As the ref escorts Rotten out of the ring, Garvin flattens Max with a right hand and he goes down for the count and Keirn gets the pin!
VTR:
We see a swimming pool. We zoom in to poolside where Al Perez and Bay Doll are dressed in bathing suits and stretched out on lounge chairs. The camera goes to a head and shoulders shot of Al and Baby Doll as Al takes a sip of champagne from a wine glass.
PEREZ: Look at this! First class all the way! This is how the other half lives! Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous! I wonder what your old pal Tito is doing right now, Baby Doll?
BABY DOLL: Probably sitting in his one bedroom apartment at some roach infested motel. Probably eating refried beans, drinking Lone Star beer, and listening to Freddy Fender 8 tracks!
PEREZ: Wasted days and wasted nights, no doubt! Story of his useless life! As my pal, Rod Stewart, would say: Tonight’s the night, Tito! It’s a lumberjack match! Badness Unlimited will be there to make sure that you don’t run away and that none of your hoodlum friends interfere! What a bunch of losers your friends are! Homeless hippie Jimmy Valiant! Ol’ Fred Sanford himself, Junkyard Dog, and Ronnie Garvin, the most ignorant redneck of them all!
BABY DOLL: Tell’em what you promised me, honey!
PEREZ: I’m gonna finish you off, once and for all, Tito! I’m sure I’ll get the job done this evening! If not tonight, then on July 4th, at the elimination match! Then, I’m gonna challenge the winner of the Undisputed Title match! I don’t care if it’s Von Erich or Williams! It won’t be long until sweet Baby Doll will be on the arm of the World Heavyweight Champion!
BABY DOLL: Arriba, Tito!

Before the match begins, referee Tommy Gilbert tells Rotunda to return to the dressing room. Rotunda commandeers the house mic from Mark Lowrance.

You defend your Undisputed World Championship against “Dr. Death” Steve Williams! The man who you beat for the belt, “Megabucks” Michael Rotunda is making a lot of noise, too!
KERRY: It sounds to me like maybe he never learned how to take a tail kickin’ like a man, Boni! Rotunda, you wave that weapon at Kev or myself, we might just stick it where the sun don’t shine! Steve Williams, I can’t take anything away from you! Your accomplishments speak for themselves! You might be the toughest man I’ve ever been in a ring with! But, I’m fighting for all of the Von Erich fans here in Texas and all around the world! “Ace” Orton, my brother Kevin wants that title back and I wouldn’t be in your boots for all the money in the world! July 4th is gonna be a big night for America and a big night for my brother and me! I don’t know if they’ve ever had fireworks inside the Cow Palace, but we might have them at the Firecracker Spectacular here on TNT!
