  It seems now that Savage will lose to Warrior and retire soon after (yes,
Mastrangelo still has time to take back his Savage victory prediction, lest
we all remind him profusely after SummerSlam that he was wrong).  Since big
names like Savage rarely go out as heels (see George Steele, Andre, etc.), 
and because if he was going to do a heel turn it would have happened in the
Nasty Boys match, I would conjecture that Savage will remain a face and 
retire as one.  The catch: Savage will lose the belt due to a patented WWF
screw job involving Ric Flair and Hennig.  Savage will not turn heel however.
Similarly, is there any doubt that Papa Shango's curse will strike Bret Hart,
causing him to lose the IC belt to Davey Boy Smith?  And of course, the Bevs    
must defeat the Disasters to set up a Bevs/LOD series.  My final prediction:
this whole SummerSlam will still manage to be every bit as boring as any other
WWF PPV....

Here are the results from Summerslam:
 
Bushwhackers/Duggan defeated Nasty Boys/Mountie, with Duggan pinning the
Mountie.  Papa Shango pinned El Matador.  LOD over Million Dollar Man/IRS with
Animal pinning DiBiase.  Nailz beat Virgil by submission.  Shawn Micheals and
the Model went to a double countoout as they fought over Sheri when she
fainted.  Disasters defeated Beverly Bros.  Crush defeated Repo Man.
 
Ultimate Warrior defeated Randy Savage by countout after Ric Flair and Mr.
Perfect interfered.  Warrior and Savage left the ring together.
 
Undertaker over Kamala by DQ.  Tatanka pinned the Berserker.
 
British Bulldog defeated Bret Hart to win the Intercontinental title.
 

Assuming they are correct, I have no intention of spending a cent on it.
This is the second year in a row that a surprise run in was rumored
(last year it was Flair).

Summary: The Marks will go nuts.
Organization: Indiana University - Read Center
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 1992 18:10:52 GMT

1. Papa Shango v. Tito Santana  -  Tito Santana will win this one
   by disqualification. 

2. Whackers/Duggan v. Mountie/Nasty's - M/NBs will win this one, but
   Nobbs of the nasty boys will leave the ring midway through the match.
   His team-mates will think he is going to get some help as they are getting
   the shinola beaten out of them.  He does not return however setting up
   the breakup of the Nasty Boys.  

3. Nailz v. Virgil - DQ win for Nailz as BBM interferes.

4. Tatanka v. Berserker - Tatanka takes pinfall over Berserker.

5. Martel v. Michaels - Michaels screw-job pin over Martel.  

6. UnderTaker v. Kamala - Never gets underway.  Kamala will pummel him outside
   the ring before anything starts and take the urn.

7. Beverlys v. Disasters - Count-out win for Beverly Brothers.

8. LOD v. Money Inc. -  Money INC. pins Animal.  Assistance outside the ring
   from POd Beverly Brothers after not getting title.

9. Repo v. Crush - Crush defeats Repo by pinning him after a 'devastating' 
   double clothesline.

10. Davey Boy v. Bret Hart - Look for some  outside interference on this
    match.  Possibly by a tag team entity.. Hart and Davey Boy UNITE and
    take on the two out on the floor.  While the fighting ensues, both men
    are counted out.  Hart and Davey boy have a Kodak moment and hug each
    other after beating the piss out of the tag team the interfered.  Perhaps
    work a few house shows as a tag team against that team.  Either way,
    Davey Boy looks good and so does the Intercontinental Champ, Bret Hart.

11. Savage v. Warrior - Anyone that can't see some outside interference
    in this one is blind as a bat.  Look for Flair to showboat around the
    ring during the match.  His job: To hit whichever guy is building 
    momentum.  Razor Ramon will be under the ring.  Savage will have 
    Warrior up for a body slam too close to the ropes.  Ramon will pull
    Savage's feet from under him and the Warrior falls on top of Savage.
    (Ref didn't see a thing).  And new WWF heavyweight champion, The
    Ullllllllllllltimate Warrrrrrrrrrrrrrior.  This sets up a lit Savage
    to take on Ramon in house shows and gives Warrior someone new to beat
    up on.
 
                                -or-

    Savage was not in negotiations with Perfect, but with Ramon.  At 
    specified time when Warrior has Savage up for hsi stupid 'over the
    head press' Ramon pulls Warriors legs out and Savage wins.  Later
    discovered that Savage promised Ramon a title shot in exchange for
    helping him get by Warrior.

    I would go with the first scenario on this one as it keeps both 
    grapplers in FACE mode.  And Macho has a pretty good amount of 
    stuff in the new catalog......

The show dies because Jody Mac left the fan.  he does a show on weekdays
in Philly and the drive to NY on weekends got to be too much.  The FAN
only had the show because of respect for Jody.  When he left, the show
left with him.  From what I hear, Mancuso wanted to stay on.  I

Nope, Bruno was actually a pretty decent wrestler, although not the level
of Gagne or Backlund.  He did resort to kicking and punching when in the
heat of a big match, but his "scientific" skills were consdierably
better than Bulk.

I know we've got some readers in the uk, and at least one who's even gotten
tickets to the live event.  What are the chances we could get a quick 
review of the card, so those of us in the states can decide wether or
not to waste our $$ on the ppv?  Personally, I will only be getting the
ppv if something MAJOR happens, or there is a GLOWING review of the card.
And, considering this will be the first wrestling ppv I will be missing
in almost 5 years, it kinda gives you an idea of just how disgusted I am
with Vinnie's ppv shows.  (they've always been bad.. but even *I* have

I think you might be right about this, but I am wondering about
Pete Maravich.  He was certainly a superstar in his day, but did
LSU ever get past the second round of the NCAAs with him?  I
think not, but I'm not positive about this.

Well, but there are a LOT of players whose team didn't shine
while they were in college, but they themselves went on to
decent pro careers.  The pro game is just different from the 
college version.

I wasn't arguing the plusses or minuses of depth, I just opined that
Michigan didn't have it.  I think Purdue has better depth than
Michigan, but that's meaningless.  Michigan will walk away with the
Big-10 this year, based on the quality of their starting five.  Any
three of those guys on the floor, along with a couple of guys from
Michigan's *average* bench, will be good enough to mop up most other
