Lowrance, “With me is the General. Mr. Akbar, your men have been very successful. The Long Riders hold the American Tag Team Titles and your team of Khan, Link and Kamala hold the six man titles, but they both have tough matches at Texas Stadium.”
Akbar, “You know Lowrance, you gave us a little credit, but you had to talk about tough matches. Look at my men, look at all five of them. No one can beat us! These titles will be retired when we want to walk away and not until then!”
Lowrance, “The Long Riders are in our next match.”

Lowrance, "With me are Gary Hart, Sunshine and the Great Kabuki. Mr. Hart, Kabuki meets Kevin Von Erich tonight. Is this a chance for Kabuki to soften up Kevin for Gino Hernandez for the match at Texas Stadium?"
Hart, "Kabuki is one of the most dangerous assassins in pro wrestling. He doesn't do the bidding of anyone. Kabuki wrestles to destroy people, and tonight it's Kevin Von Erich."
Sunshine, "I want Kabuki to leave just enough of Kevin for Gino to take apart later! The Von Erichs have used people long enough! I'm going to make sure Kevin Von Erich wrestles for the last time on April 27!"

Lowrance, "Let's talk about April 27. You meet Gino Hernandez in a no disqualification, no count out match with the Texas Title at stake. It will be a war."
