Report of the Worcester, MA TV taping, paraphrased from CompuServe, tallied by
Steve Singer (sorted by taping status, secondarily in order of appearance):
 
Dark matches: 
------------
Kato beat Phil Appollo.
 
Bossman beat Nailz by DQ for using the nightstick.

Now that I've whetted your appetite, spoilers begin after the ^L's



Superstars matches:
------------------
Jim Powers beat Bob Bradley.
 
Nailz in a squash, swung at all referees in sight.
 
Bret Hart squash, Papa Shango appears at ringside, chants, leaves.
 
Davey Boy beat Iron Mike Sharpe.
 
Papa Shango squash, Shango starts wailing on the jobber with his voodoo stick,
Bret Hart comes out to make the save.  Definite feud starting.
 
Razor Ramone debuts.  Lots o' gold chains.
 
Disasters w/belts in a squash.
 
Berzerker squash.
 
Some guy called "Relentico", who might or might not be Conan Chris Walker.
Terribly flashy outfit.  The reporter concluded that Relentico was pretty good,
but the jobber was awful--wait until he goes up against a Kato.
 
Bossman destroys Skinner.
 
Kimala squashes, then climbs into the crowd.  Kimchee got him out before he ate
anyone.  Along the aisle, Kimala and the Undertaker crossed paths, jawed a bit.
 
Money Inc squash, no belts.
 
Razor Ramone again.
 
Beverlys/Repo beat Bushwackers/Duggan when a Beverly scrolled Luke. Stupidity
was contagious in this one.  Butch is getting pounded.  Crowd chants "USA".
Butch, you'll recall, is from New Zealand.
 
Crush squash mash and other nice "sh" words.
 
Duggan squash.
 
Razor Ramone *again*.
 
Prime Time matches:
------------------
Martel beat Slaughter after hitting him with the spray can.  Guess the reports
of Martel's face turn are premature.
 
Tatanka beat Iron Mike Sharpe, essentially a squash.
 
Disasters beat Money Inc. for the Tag Team championships.  The reporter
thought Typhoon was terrible, and that DiBiase and IRS should get Oscars for
selling him.
 
Shawn Michaels beat Jim Powers.
 
After all that feuding, Bret Hart finally pins the Mountie.
 
Bulldog power slams Repo Man.
 
Samoans (led by Afa) debut.  Reporter impressed.
 
Savage/Hart beat Michaels/Flair when Savage pinned Michaels.  Good match, tease
at Flair/Perfect split.  Flair argues with Perfect, taking time out to shake
hands with Shawn and Sherri, Michaels ends up coming in on Flair's side of the
argument, Perfect takes off his jacket to go at it with Flair, gets a HUGE
babyface pop.  I fear the worst...
 
Undertaker/Warrior vs. Shango/Kimala.  Reporter was tired after five hours
of matches, left before the end, just as well.
 
Special interviews:
------------------
Gene interviews Warrior, suddenly Flair runs in to announce that Savage and
Perfect are negotiating the prospect of Savage taking on Perfect as his
manager!  Flair advised Warrior to get Perfect as his manager before it was
too late.  Warrior, as always, rambled incoherently in response.
 
Savage would neither confirm nor deny he is in negotiations with Perfect.
Perfect comes out, says Warrior made him "an offer he doesn't think he can
refuse," clearly playing the two of them off against each other.  Perfect
insists he will be in *someone's* corner at SummerSlam.
 
Jimmy Hart announces a match between Savage/Warrior and the Nasty Boys.
(Potential Megapower Meltdown II?)
 
Cheers...
