1)The Breakdancers: Brickhouse Brown & 'Stylin' Mark Ragin defeated Scott McGhee & Billy Anderson at 12:18 when Brown did the splits to avoid an Anderson clothesline attempt and then quickly came up behind Billy with a rolling reverse to get the fall.

2)George Wells pinned Jerry Oske at 7:43 following a flying shoulder tackle off of the second rope. Oske is well put together and 'gave as good as he got' for the majority of the contest, but in the end he was simply no match for Wells' flying tackle move.

3)Magnum Force: Dave Peterson & Scott Hall defeated The Interns #1 & #2 (w/Tux Newman) at 15:15 when Hall pinned #1 following a double flying shoulder tackle from both Force members. Newman's team used 'every dirty trick in the book' in order to try and gain an underhanded victory, but the young duo of Hall and Peterson withstood the Interns underhanded tactics to continue their winning ways.

4) Davey Boy Smith pinned 'Cowboy' Scott Casey at 16:35 following the running power slam. Both competitors took the 'high road' in this contest and it turned into a fair, but hardly fought battle. Casey got a number of near falls on Smith about half way through the contest, but went for the bulldog headlock too soon and was shoved off into the corner by Davey, who followed up with a standing vertical suplex. Casey battled back and attempted a comeback a few minutes later but was felled by the running power slam to end the match.


5)Harley Race battled Jos LeDuc to a double count out at 8:55 when both men brawled at ringside and refused to heed the referee's instructions to return to the ring. Both men ended up using chairs and camera cables around the ringside area to do damage to one another and Race even through LeDuc up on the time keeper's table and began pounding him there. Eventually, both men brawled to the back where LeDuc retreated to his locker room.


6) Wild West Heavyweight Champion Jacques Rougeau pinned Bret Hart at 23:48 following a missile dropkick from the second rope to retain the title. Hart still appeared to be steaming from his loss to Rougeau in the tournament finals that happened last week in Las Vegas and he was determined to walk away with the title belt here tonight. Bret got several near falls during the contest, but Jacques was ultimately able to avoid Hart's piledriver again, just as he had in the championship finals. The end came when Jacques back dropped his way out of a Bret piledriver attempt and then went to the 2nd rope and connected with the missile dropkick on Hart as he regained his feet.

Hart and Rougeau with a fantastic match. Once again, I am in awe of the brutality that can be administered by LeDuc and Race. Pulling for a tag reign for Hall and Peterson.

Jacques Rougeau is one of the fastest rising stars in our world. I like the push. Looking down the road at Rougeau vs. Davey Boy in some manner. I really enjoy this promotion.

[Captain Charisma]

Tom nailed it. Really enjoying the direction things are headed in the Wild Wild West. Jacques vs. Bret, Harley vs. LeDuc, and Casey vs. Davey can interchange for months if you want it. I really like all the work you're putting into Bret's heel run. You really capture mid-80's heel Bret's non-verbal communication very well. There is so much still to look forward to in regards to top angles here. Heel Bret vs. tweener Harley or babyface Casey after a run with Jacques. Babyface Jacques vs. LeDuc redux. Babyface Jacques going to war with tweener Harley could produce some grappling classics, and the gem on the horizon, Jacques vs. Davey in some form or fashion.

Now if we could get a heel Dynamite Kid out to Las Vegas to team with Bret vs. Jacques and Davey I'd start mailing money to the offices of WWW for plane tickets

Strong stuff out west Sem!
Peace
