Aired: July 28, 1977 , KTVT Channel 11 Bill Mercer: 
"Welcome to Saturday Night Wrestling. My name is Bill Mercer and we have a great show for you this evening. Tonight, you will see the debut of a newcomer to World Class Championship Wrestling, Chicky Starr, Al Madril is in action against Manuel Soto, Benny Mendibles has a tough contest against Killer Tim Brooks, and in our main event, Professor Toru Tanaka meets George Wells.
One of the most anticipated matches in all of wrestling is the battle between Texas Heavyweight Champion Ernie Ladd and former WWWE Champion Bruiser Brody. These men are exchanging words all over the state, and I can announce that on August 5, 2007, Dallas, Texas, Ernie Ladd and Bruiser Brody will meet in a one on one contest for the first time. This match will kick off an amazing month of wrestling, as World Class Championship Wrestling will begin the first annual
Summer Wrestling Series. During the month of August, we will put on huge shows in both Texas and Oklahoma, and as a special treat to our fans: ALL TITLES WILL BE ON THE LINE AT EVERY ONE OF OUR SUMMER WRESTLING SERIES SHOWS. That means, if you come to see a World Class card in August, you are going to see the Texas Heavyweight Title, the Texas Tag-Team Titles, and the American Heavyweight Titles all on the line! It will be rough on our current champions but a treat to our great wrestling fans.
Our first guest has the unenviable task of defending his Texas Heavyweight Title next Sunday night against Bruiser Brody. Please welcome Ernie Ladd and his manager, Gary Hart.
--- Texas Heavyweight Champion Ernie Ladd and Gary Hart arrive at the interview center --- Ernie Ladd “You think I’m scared of that big dummy named Bruiser Brody? You must be crazy, jack. I ain’t scared of no one. I’ve beaten men like Bruiser Brody my whole life. These guys think they’re big and tough, they ain’t nothing compared to me. I’ll take out Bruiser Brody next Sunday night and take out any other dummy who wants to step into the ring with me. Summer Wrestling Series? That ain’t nothing but an excuse for me to beat up dummies each and every night.
Bill Mercer: “Ernie Ladd is ready for his big match with Bruiser Brody. Let’s go the ring as Chicky Starr, hailing from Puerto Rico, makes his World Class debut.
Match #1 Chicky Starr defeats
Reno Tuufili via pinfall following a top rope drop kick (5:04)
---Commercial Break--- Bill Mercer: "On last week’s program, Al Madril made some not so flattering comments about Haystacks Calhoun. Joining us now is the big man himself, Haystacks Calhoun.
--- Haystacks Calhoun arrives at the interview center --- Haystacks Calhoun: "Al Madril, I don’t know you, I’ve never met you before. You came out here last week and said some pretty mean things about me. Where I come from, we don’t talk like that about people. Where I come from, if you ain’t got nothing nice to say, you don’t say nothing at all. You came out here and insulted me, my family, my home. I ain’t ashamed to be a hillbilly. You see, where I come from we have a lot of good people. People not like you Madril. You have a problem with me, Madril. Let’s settle this man to man, inside a ring. You see, that’s how we do it where I come from.
Bill Mercer: “Haystacks Calhoun is not too happy about the comments made last week by Al Madril and challenges him to a match, anywhere, anytime. Al Madril is in action in our next contest.
Match #2 Al Madril defeats
Manuel Soto following a crucifix and pinfall. (5:38). After the match, Madril grabs the house mic and berates Haystacks Calhoun, calling him a freak telling him to go back to the farm.
---Commercial Break--- Bill Mercer: “Tonight, Killer Tim Brooks meets Benny Mendibles, the tough veteran who made an impressive debut on our program last week. Here to talk about his upcoming match is Killer Tim Brooks.
Killer Tim Brooks arrives at the interview center --- Killer Tim Broos “ Why do they have me wrestling this puny little midget??? I’ve beat men twice his size, I’ve beat men ten times tougher. I’ve left a pile of bodies all over the wrestling world. The matchmakers really think that this wanna be from Arizona can compete with me? They’ve set up the most lopsided match in World Class history.
Bill Mercer: "Killer Tim Brooks does not seem to be taking his match with Benny Mendibles very seriously. Brooks may be making a mistake as Mendibles is as tough as they come. Let’s go the ring.
Match #3 Benny Mendibles upsets
Killer Tim Brooks via pinfall in a tough match following a sunset flip. (11:43)
---Commercial Break--- Bill Mercer: “What an impressive win in our last segment by Benny Mendibles. Another wrestler who had an impressive win was Professor Toru Tanaka, who pinned Fritz Von Erich last weekend in Oklahoma City in a six man tag match. Joining us now is Skandar Akbar and his army of foreign mercenaries.
Skandar Akbar, Texas Tag Team Champions Mr. Fuji and Masa Saito, and Toru Tanaaka arrrive at the interview center--- Skandar Akbar “What Toru Tanaka did to the infidel Fritz Von Erich is just a preview of what will happen the next time these two men step into the ring. There is no one in wrestling who can stop my men. Not Fritz Von Erich, not Scott Casey, not Kevin Von Erich, no one! The Summer Wrestling Series will prove to be crowning moment in the war against the infidels. We are primed for world domination, and any infidel that steps in our way will pay the price.
Bill Mercer: “Skandar Akbar sounds as confident as ever about the chances of his men. Let’s go the ring as Toru Tanaka has a tough match against the big George Wells.
Match #4 Toru Tanaka defeats
George Wells via pinfall following a chop to the throat. (12:06) After the match, Skandar Akbar and Tanaka continue a brutal attack on Wells that leaves the former football player bloodied. Fritz Von Erich and the face locker room finally come out to make the save. Wells is taken to the back on a stretcher.
Bill Mercer: " What a horrendous display by Akbar and Tanaka. Till next time…
