From the Offices of Jim Crockett Promotions:
 
We are in the midst of a spectacular "Summer Sizzler Tour" and are extremely excited with the results from the June 17th show in Greensboro, NC and the July 14th show in Hampton, VA. We here at Jim Crockett Promotions are pleased to announce the card for the next stop on our tour, which will take place on August 18, 1977 at Victory Stadium in Roanoke, VA. When we began this "Summer Sizzler Tour" we promised you the fans only the best that the NWA has to offer and coming with that would be the biggest stars of the NWA! We promise you that this card will surely live up to those expectations. Remember our final stop of the tour will be on September 3, 1977, "Labor Day", at American Legion Memorial Stadium in Charlotte, NC.
