Jake Roberts interferes in the match to give Simmons the DQ win, and
leaves Simmons laying (or is that lying) flat in the ring.

Super Invader and Koloff will be eliminated early. Rude and the Steiners
will be eliminated along the way leaving Sting to fend off Roberts and
Vader. Roberts with the DDT.

Cool. I wanted to see the Chono/Rude match.

>     - Ricky Steamboat vs. Steve Austin for the TV Title

Steamboat takes the title from the Stunning One.

>     - Brad Armstrong vs. Brian Pillman for the Lightheavyweight Title

A long hard-fought battle, but a successful title defense for Armstrong.

>     - Van Hammer vs. Diamond Dallas Page

Give me a break! Why do they insist on pushing DDP as a wrestler?
Especially pairing himself with Hammer, whose shown himself to work
hard in the past to improve his wrestling (ie. match vs. Cactus Jack)
Hammer with the easy win.

>     - Barry Windham & Dustin Rhodes vs. Barbarian & Dan Spivey

Windham and Nepotist Kid with the win.

Arn and Bobby have to be shown to be the "super team" capable of
putting the Steiners out of wrestling, so look for the Dangerous
Alliance to triumph here.

Scotty the Jobber to get his first victory in a while.

Yes = 51%   No = 49%    Call in now!!

I know Ferris is the Honky Tonk Man, but whose the Dream Machine?

>   06/16/84 - Sgt. Slaughter vs. Iron Sheik

The famed Boot Camp match?

>   07/04/83 - Freebirds vs. von Erichs
>   07/04/84 - Freebirds vs. von Erichs

Are these 3-on-3 (ie with Buddy Roberts wrestling) or is Roberts the
"corner man" for the 'Birds?

>   03/12/83 - Ricky Steamboat & Jay Youngblood
>               vs. Don Kernodle & Sgt. Slaughter
>   08/31/86 - Midnight Rockers vs. Buddy Rose & Doug Somers
>   11/21/86 - Nick Bockwinkel vs. Curt Hennig

Are these all matches where the title changed hands? (especially 
interested in the Steamboat/Youngblood title match in the cage)

>   06/01/87 - Terry Taylor & Eddie Gilbert vs. Sting & Shane Douglas

This the match on your tape where Chris Adams helps Sting brawl with
Taylor and Gilbert back to the dressing room? Great brawl! Was the 
match anything special?

>   Top 20:

>   03/22/85 - Ted DiBiase vs. Jim Duggan

Give me a break. A Duggan match ranked in the top 20? 
I'll believe it when I see it.
