Live on PPV!
Originating from the Sundome in Tampa, FL
VTR: We see a limo pull up outside the Sundome. A chauffeur exits and opens the back door. We see Ole Anderson...LEX LUGAR! SID VICIOUS! ARN ANDERSON! “NATURE BOY RIC FLAIR!!! All are wearing suits and looking supremely confident!
FLAIR: Tonight’s the night! The Horsemen will show the world why we rule WCW! Sting, the WCW Title is coming home and you’re gonna be mine….ALL NIGHT LONG! WOOOOOOOOO!
OLE: Learn to live with it!
END VTR
The arena has the typical WCW setup of the time. A stage on one end of the arena and a ramp leading to the ring. The announce team is set up at ringside.
Bruise Brothers vs. Harlem Heat: These two rising teams had to be separated last night on the Super Station. Tonight, as could be expected, is a wild brawl. After 9:47 of hard hitting brawling, Booker T hits an ax kick on Don Harris and scores the pin! After the match, the Harris boys are sore losers and decide to continue the fight! It takes several officials and security guys to separate these two teams!
WINNERS: HARLEM HEAT
VTR:
OLE ANDERSON : (v/o with Black Scorpion vocal effects) The thing about a snake is this: Ya never know when or where or even how that it will strike! You only know that when it strikes that it will be deadly!
END VTR
JESSE: Ok, what is that all about, Schiavone?
TONY: I guess that we’ll have to wait and see, won’t we?
JESSE: I hate snakes!
LARRY: Then, you’d better watch out, Jess!
Sid Vicious & Lex Lugar (w/Ole Anderson) vs. The Eliminators: Two of the Horsemen face an up and coming team trying to prove themselves. Kronus and Saturn give a good accounting of themselves, but at 7:45, Sid nails Kronus with the powerbomb for the 1-2-3!
WINNERS: SID VICIOUS & LEX LUGAR
Ahmed Johnson enters the arena to a very positive reaction. This young man is really making a name for himself in WCW!
Colonel Robert Parker leads his latest Stud Stable signee to the ring! He says that this is the man who will take out Johnson!
Ahmed Johnson vs. Kamala (w/Colonel Robert Parker): With Parker cheering him on, Kamala attacks Ahmed at the bell and, for a few minutes, batters him from pillar to post with chops! After a ring rattling bodyslam, Kamala goes for the splash. This turns out to be premature and Johnson rolls out of the way! Ahmed pops the crowd when he hits the Pearl River Plunge and pins Kamala in 5:02!
WINNER: AHMED JOHNSON
After the match, Parker throws a hissy fit! He even throws his hat on the floor and stomps it!
Lord Steven Regal strolls to the ring, accompanied by Squire David Taylor. They enter the ring and appear quite smug and bored by it all. Then, we hear…
Tazmaniac has arrived!!!
Tazmaniac vs. Lord Steven Regal (w/Squire David Taylor): His Lordship was humiliated last time he was in the ring with Taz and he’s looking for payback! Regal takes his opponent to the mat and does really well down there. Eventually, Taz gets back on his vertical base and puts on an epic display of suplexes! Taylor attempts to interfere, but gets caught by referee Mickey Jay, who issues a stern warning. Taz catches Regal in the Tazmission and his Lordship is fading fast! Taylor jumps in and nails Taz from behind! The Brits deliver a vicious beating to Tazmanaiac until Bam Bam Bigelow and Ahmed Johnson run in for the save! Tazmaniac does get the victory and that’s what matters!
WINNER: TAZMANIAC (DQ)
Bigelow is in our next match, so he stays in the ring and paces furiously as his opponent’s music plays…
Vader (w/Harley Race) vs. Bam Bam Bigelow: These two were a former team in Japan, but Vader split the team to search for greener pastures in WCW. They start slugging it out as soon as the bells sounds and it looks more like a scene from a Toho monster flick than a wrestling match! Referee Randy Anderson is in way over his head and eventually, he has no choice but to throw the match out at the 8:22 mark!
RESULT: DOUBLE DISQUALIFICATION
After the match, Vader and Bigelow continue their brawl! They fight up the ramp, and into backstage.
TONY: Mean Gene is standing by with a special interview…
GENE: I am joined by Ole and Arn Anderson. In our next match, Arn, you’ll defend your World TV Title against a very formidable challenge, no less than Ricky “the Dragon” Steamboat!
ARN: Mean Gene, Steamboat has been a thorn in Ric Flair’s flesh for as far back as anybody can remember! I know that if he wins this title tonight, he’ll try to leverage that into a shot at Ric Flair’s World Title! I say, “Not so fast, Dragon!” What in the….
?
Bigelow and Vader are slugging it out back stage! Okerlund and the Andersons have to scramble to get out of the way!
OLE: Come on, Harley, get your guy under control!
GENE: There’s no controlling those two monsters!
They continue brawling until they are out of camera range with Harley Race following behind them!
ARN: As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, Steamboat will not use me as a stepping stone tonight!The World TV Title and the WCW World Title are leaving Tampa with the Four Horsemen!
GENE: There’s no guarantee that you’ll still have the World Title, Ole! The belt is held up and Flair has to go through Sting to win it!
OLE: Don’t worry about Flair, Okerlund! I’ve never seen Ric more determined than he is tonight! You little stingers watching on pay per view had better be worried for your hero!
GENE: I’ll let you gentlemen get down to business!
The music brings the challenger, one of the all time greats, Ricky “the Dragon” Steamboat, to the ring!
The Dragon enters the ring, removes his gi, and awaits the World TV Champion!
Ole Anderson leads his nephew to the ring. When Arn arrives at ringside, he glares at Steamboat and drags his thumb across his throat in an ominous gesture!
World TV Title Match: Arn Anderson © (w/Ole Anderson) vs. Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat:
As you would expect with two ring generals, a slow building, well worked, back and forth classic. Several times, Arn tosses Steamboat out of the ring and, each time, Arn distracts referee Nick Patrick so Ole can slug Ricky or put the boots to him. On one occasion, Ole whips the Dragon facefirst into the ring post, opening a cut on his forehead! Steamboat makes an amazing comeback after that, armdragging Double A from pillar to post and landing a series of chops! In desperation, the Enforcer grabs Steamboat by the front of his tights and propels him through the ropes and down to the floor! Ole attempts another attack on the Dragon, but gets a chop to the throat for his trouble! Ole goes down and Steamboat climbs back onto the ring and the top turnbuckle! High cross body by the Dragon!

VTR:
Ravishing Rick Rude stands in front of the Slamboree logo with Sensational Sherri Martel in his arms.
RUDE: Rob Van Dam, I’ll admit that you are an amazing athlete. Only a fool would say otherwise! You can do things in a wrestling ring that most men won’t even attempt! But you’re not even in my league when it comes to professional wrestling! The last time you saw me, you got lucky, son, plain and simple luck! Tell him, Sherri!
SHERRI: tonight, you gotta wrestle my man, Robbie, a real man! Your luck just ran out!

US Title Match: Ravishing Rick Rude © (w/Sherri Martel) vs. Rob Van Dam: RVD starts off hot, using his martial arts and aerial skills to dominate the early going. However, RVD‘s youthful exuberance costs him as he goes for the split legged moonsault too early and the champ gets out of the way. Rude takes control and punishes the challenger for several minutes. Rude goes for the finish with his neckbreaker, but amazingly, Rob reverses it! Rob goes to the top rope! Frog splash! Sherri grabs Rude’s leg and pulls him out of the ring! RVD lands flat on his face! I guess the ref missed it, but he’s suspicious- he’s pointing and yelling at Sherri! Rude re-enters the rin just as Van Dam struggles to his feet. DDT by Rude! Cover...1….2….3!!!
WINNER: RAVISHING RICK RUDE

TONY: And that’s why he’s the greatest of all time, folks!!!!
RIC FLAIR WINS THE HELD UP WORLD TITLE! THE HORSEMEN HIT THE RING AND LIFT FLAIR ONTO THEIR SHOULDERS! NICK PATRICK HAS THE BELT! WAIT A SECOND!!! STING RIPS IT OUT OF THE REFEREE’S HANDS!!!
Sting hands the belt to Flair! What a class guy the Stinger is! He offers the Nature Boy a handshake...Flair holds out his hand, but jerks it away when Sting attempts to shake!
TONY: Flair is a great wrestler, but his sportsmanship leaves a lot to be desired!
JESSE: Why shake hands with a loser?
We have a new World Champion and the Horsemen are the undisputed rulers of WCW!!! Who can knock them off the top of the mountain?
Stick around, it could be a bumpy ride!
Working on it now.
