Here's the info from the latest (very good) Center Stage taping.
Syndie match- Robbie V. beat the Executioner.
Taping for 1/30/93
Benoit over Zenk with German suplex.
Brad Armstrong and Too Cold Scorpio defeated the team of Buddy Lee
Parker and another lesser jobber when Brad hit lesser jobber with
Russian leg sweep.
Steve Regal is introduced.
MA Bagwell and Erik Watts (sic) beat Scotty Flamingo and Rip Rogers
when Nepo Man put the STF on Rogers.
Rock N Roll Express interview.
Wrecking Crew beat anonymous jobbers with wrecking ball.
Max Pain beat Johnny Gunn with the armbar submission.
Paul Orndorff pinned the Barbarian in a surprisingly entertaining match.
Sting/Dustin defeat Windham and Vader by DQ when Barry uses leather strap.
Vader pummelled Dustin throughout this entire match and got in a nasty
lick with the strap on a jobber trying to make the save when Vader is
wailing on Sting with the strap post-match.
Taping for 2/6/93
Brian Pillman and Steve Austin defeated Too Cold Scorpio and Johnny B Badd
when Pillman pinned Badd.
It is announced that Barry Windham will face Keijo Muto at SuperBrawl III.
(at some point, I think the first taping, Sting was being interviewed
about his upcoming White Castle Hamburgers of Death match and Sting referred
to the PPV as Starrcade III. Interesting to see if they edit that out.)
Steve Regal defeated Bob Cook.
Ron Simmons squashed Mike Thor.
Dustin Rhodes will face Ron Simmons at Super Brawl.
Coming back from the break, there's a disturbance as Jim Cornette, Stan Lane,
Dr. Tom Pritchard, and Bobby Eaton storm through the crowd and down to the  
interview area. Cornette demands that Watts came out. Says that he and Stan
left because the people who worked there before (and named Herd specifically)
tried to make the Midnight Express look like idiots. He and Lane then
formed the Heavenly Bodies with Pritchard and everything was fine until, like
a cancer, the Rock N Roll Express reappeared. Now, I think he said, Watts
was trying to make the Heavenly Bodies look like idiots. Watts hasn't returned
his calls and he wants him to come out. Watts finally appears and after
more haranguement from Cornette, grabs the mike from Jim and calls him a sissy
(nice tact, Cowpie) and verbally attacks Jim. The RNR Express come out and
Watts says that if they want it that badly, then they can go at it right now.
RNR Express vs Heavenly Bodies- After control by RNR, Heavenly Bodies finally
get upper hand. Teams trade off until HBs eventually DQed for outside
interference from Eaton. Cornette and HBs then beat the snot out of RNR Express
as well as various jobbers coming in for the save. Wow!
Max Pain suashed Brad Armstrong with Kunze armbar (I know Herb likes this move
and I couldn't remember the name, so I called it this :-) ).
Tex Slasinger and Shang Hai Pierce were DQed for tossing Z Man over the top
rope in their match with Zenk/Johnny Gunn.
Sting was DQed for using the leather strap on Barry Windham.
The Cornette affair was nothing short of genius. Let's hope Jim and company
will be brought in for a lengthy time.
People who I , while waiting in line, saw leaving that did not appear included
Cactus Michael Foley (with back window of his car busted out) and the 
real world's champion announcer, the legendary Gordon Solie.
Next TV taping, Monday, 2/8/93.
