Mercer, “Fans, welcome to ‘World Class Championship Wrestling’! The wrestling in Texas is better than ever and tonight’s show is no exception. We will see Kevin Von Erich in action, as well as Chris Adams. Killer Khan, will be in action and in our main event, The Long Riders defend the American Tag Team Titles against Gary Hart’s team of the Great Kabuki and Black Bart. Let’s go to Marc Lowrance and out first match.”
Match #1
Handicap Match
Killer Khan w/Skandor Akbar vs. Mike Reed and Terry Daniels
Reed and Daniels are two lambs being led to slaughter. They try to take the fight to Khan. The big Mongolian lets out several of his signature screams. He chops and kicks and finishes off both men with kneedrops.
Winner-Killer Khan
Match #2
The Davidson Brothers vs. Al Madril and Chavo Guerrero
The big California bikers take on the Mexican-American stars. Rick and Madril open the match. Davidson works over Al, early, and Madril is in trouble. He is able to rally and turn the tide. John tags in and has some success, but Chavo enters and wins with a flying bodypress.
Winners-Al Madril and Chavo Guerrero
Bill Mercer is seated in the studio.
Mercer, “Last spring we celebrated the all too brief life of David Von Erich and the ‘David Von Erich Parade of Champions’. Kerry Von Erich, wrestling for David, won the World Title from Ric Flair. This year, on Sunday afternoon, April 27, World Class Championship Wrestling presents the second ‘David Von Erich Parade of Champions’ and Ric Flair will be there. Let’s hear from Mr. Flair.”
Flair is standing, in a suit and holding the NWA World Title.
Flair, “Dallas, TX! The Nature Boy knows Dallas, TX! Lots of pretty ‘Yellow Roses’ there and lots of frisky cowgirls! There are a lot of great wrestlers too. Kerry Von Erich, you took my title! I tip my hat to you, but I won it back and I still have it. The NWA hasn’t told me who I’m wrestling that day, I don’t care. If it’s a Von Erich, I’ll win, if it’s Gino Hernandez, the Nature Boy will win, if it’s Killer Khan, he’s going to lose! Ric Flair was born to hold the title and I’m not giving it up!”
Mercer, “Strong words from the Nature Boy. Stay tuned for more information on this huge card.”
Match #3
Killer Brooks vs. Kevin Von Erich
Brooks and Rick Hazzard wait in the ring and we hear,
Kevin Von Erich fights through the crowd and enters the ring. The rugged man from Waxahachie takes the fight to Kevin. Brooks dishes it out, but Kevin takes it and gives it back in spades. He pounds away at Brooks and Tim is stunned. Kevin whips Brooks into the ropes and slaps on the Von Erich claw. Brooks is out.
Winner-Kevin Von Erich
Marc Lowrance is with Gary Hart, Sunshine, and their men.
Lowrance, "Mr. Hart, Sunshine, your men are very busy tonight. Chris Adams takes Skip Young, and then, the Great Kabuki, and Black Bart challenge the Long Riders for the American Tag Team Championship."
Hart, "I'll let Chris and Sunshine talk first."
Sunshine, "I'll start this! Chris Adams is going to destroy Skip Yoing tonight, and then he's coming after Kerry Von Erich! Right Chris?"
Adams, "Skip Young, you can't beat me. You shouldn't even step in the ring with me, and Von Erich, you stole that title from Gino, and I'm going to take it from you!"
Lowrance, "Mr. Hart, what about the tag title match!"
Hart, "I've got one thing to say to Skandor Ak-a-bar, you and I have worked together before, and we might do it again, but tonight is business. My men are taking the titles. It's just business."
Lowrance, "Chris Adams vs. Skip Young is next."
Match #4
Chris Adams w/"Playboy" Gary Hart and Sunshine vs. Skip Young
The minister's son from Dallas is ready for the English Gentleman. Skip starts quickly. He whips Adams into the ropes and clamps on a sleephold. Adams grabs the ropes and referee Bronko Lubich breaks the hold. Sunshine and Hart shout instructions from ringside. Don't forget that Adams can wrestle and he proves it. He controls the action and wins with a superkick.
Winner-Chris Adams
Marc Lowrance is with General Skandor Akbar and Devastation Incorporated.
Lowrance, “With me is the General. Mr. Akbar, your tag team champions meet Gary hart’s team of Kabuki and Black Bart. Gary Hart says it’s business. His men are going to take the titles tonight.”
Akbar, “Gary Hart and I are competitors. I respect him, but I’m not going to give him, or his team an inch. My men like being the Champions, and I like the money they make me. That’s not ending tonight, Gary Hart, ot not.”
Lowrance, “The main event is next.”
Match #5
American Tag Team Championship
The Long Riders (Champions) w/General Skandor Akbar vs. The Great Kabuki and Black Bart w/”Playboy” Gary Hart and Sunshine
This will be a knock down, drag out affair. The bell rings and it’s Bill Irwin and Kabuki in the ring. Irwin uses his size advantage to control the opening moments. He backs Kabuki into the corner and works him over. Kabuki goes to the martial arts to fight his way out of the corner. Kabuki takes control. He tags in Bart and the big man from South Dakota tags in. Irwin tgs in his brother and Scott and Bart slug it out. Neither big man takes a backward step. The brawl continues and all four men end up in the ring. Scott and Bart are battling in one corner. Referee David Manning takes Bill Irwin to the corner. Bart holds Scott and Kabuki spits the mysterious green mist. Irwin ducks and the mist hits Bart. He falls to the match clutching his face. Irwin goes for the cover and Manning turns to count the fall. Hart and Sunshine check on Bart as Kabuki goes into one of his spins. Akbar and his men take the titles and leave the area.
Winners-The Long Riders
Bill Mercer closes the show.
Mercer, “A big mix up for Gary Hart’s men. This won’t sit well with Black Bart. Another exciting night of wrestling and next week will be just as exciting, or more so. Our main event will be an American Heavyweight Title match. Kerry Von Erich will defend the title against Killer Khan, what a matchup! Don’t miss our show!”
