Pan-American Wrestling Council Chairman Gori Guererro and Jose Alex Perez join Gene Goodison for a pre-filmed interview.
Gene: "I am joined by the legendary Gori Guererro and Jose Alex Perez, and Gori I understand you have a special announcement for all the fans attending the big wrestling card in Juarez this weekend.
Gori: "Thats right Gene, and that announcement is that this man Jose Alex Perez has asked for a TAPED FIST MATCH against Flama Roja for this weekend's Brass Knux title match, and in light of Roja's recent conduct I have granted him one.
Gene: "Well, that certainly sounds like a type of match that will work to your advantage, Jose!
Jose: "Mr. Goodison, first I want to thank Mr. Guererro for giving me this match, and this opportunity. As the people know, Flama Roja has been using every dirty trick in the book to keep his title belt. Well, this weekend, I will get my kind of match. I was a professional boxer before I was a wrestler, Mr. Goodison, and this weekend, when I pound my fists into Flama Rojas head, it won't hurt one bit because my fists will be protected by this adhesive tape I am wearing right now, so Flama Roja, I will be able to pound, and pound and pound on you all night long, and make you suffer for using those foreign objects, and you will suffer before I take that Brass Knuckles title away from you!
Gene: "All right, well folks, revenge is on this young man's mind, as well as winning the World Brass Knux title, a taped fist match this Sunday in Juarez, Jose Alex Perez versus Flama Roja! Gentlemen, thank you for your time, let's go to more live action!
DIRTY DON CARSON + DR. FERRIS + MASKED WRESTLING PRO V ALPHONSO DANTES + GRAN HAMADA + JAVIER LLANES During the match . .LOS VILLANOS come down to the front row to scout their competition for Sunday! Don Carson does not like it , one bit, and demands to see their tickets! The referee checks, they have tickets, Los Villanos can stay! Their prescence angers and upsets the Alabama Gang of Carson, Ferris and Pro, and Dantes, Lllanes and Hamada all score near falls on their competition, but at the 15 minute mark, Don Carson illegally comes in without a tag and pins Hamada!
WAIT!!! Los Villanos call over referee El Gran Davis, and point out the error, Davis refuses to change his decision, meanwhile, Carson, Ferris and Pro come over, and ARGUE WITH LOS VILLANOS!
WAIT! CARSON SLAPS ONE OF THE VILLANOS! THAT IS IT, THE VILLANOS TRY TO HOP THE RAIL, BUT HERE COMES GORI GUERERRO, WHO MOTIONS FOR SECURITY, they have the Villanos escorted out of the building! We will be right back after these words!

Gene Goodison is joined by the Alabama Gang!
Carson: "Gene Goodison, I want to personally come out here and thank Gori Guererro for removing those unruly Villanos from the building just a few minutes ago! How can we work under these conditions? I mean, they were spitting at us, throwing beer bottles at us, and the language they were using----I don't understand Mexican, but even I could tell they were using dirty words that cant be broadcast on televsion!
"It was absolutely ridiculous conduct on the part of the Villanos, and they were taking away from the other fans . . . the absolute PLEASURE, the JOY our fans were getting from seeing us wrestle!
WAIT! here come Gori!
Gori: "Don Carson, I appreciate your approval of my actions. There WILL be law and order in any arena Pan American Wrestling operates in, and for the safety of the fans, I had Los Villanos removed from the area.
Don applauds Gori: "Safety first, Gori Guererro!!! SAFETY FIRST!!
Gori: "Agreed. And also for the safety of the fans . . . . . actos of unprovoked physical violence by wrestlers towards fans is also unacceptable, therefore:

" . . . . . I am FINING YOU $1000 FOR SLAPPING AN AUDIENCE MEMBER!!!!
Don: "WHAT YOU CANT DO THAT!!! WHY YOU . . .
Gori: "Go ahead and lay a hand on me, Carson, and that $1000 will seem like a parking ticket compared to what will happen to you and your career!
Gene: "Ladies and gentlemen, Don Carson took things too far and it just hit him in the pocket book, but if the Alabama Gang can win the World Six Man title belts from Los Villanos it will make up for it, I am sure! More Championship Wrestling after this!

Gene: "This Sunday night in Juarez, its the big showdown when Jose Lothario and Ricky Romero will wrestle a grudge match against Jody Arnold and Crusher Cortez, and the big main event when Adrian Street challenges this man Blue Demon for the blue jacket!
Jose: "Well, let me tell you something, Gene, Ricky and I have been waiting for this match for a couple of weeks now. Two weeks ago Crusher Cortez used that chair on Ricky and I, and we have been looking forward to getting payback, and no doubt, Jody Arnold is a tricky as they come, and Crusher Cortez is big and mean and tough, but we feel very confident ABOUT OUR CHANCES FOR VINDICATION THIS WEEKEND!!!
Gene: "Ricky and Jose, last week as the fans saw, Adrian Street, the man that will face Blue Demon this Sunday, may have cost Jody Arnold in last weeks match WITH BLUE DEMON. I am really looking forward to getting Mr. Blue Demons reactions to last weeks events if you dont mind translating for me.

"¿Blue Demon, cuál es su reacción al incidente de la calle de Jody Arnold-Adrian Street a partir de la semana pasada?
Demon: "Por supuesto. La semana pasada, di una palmada al gusto fuera de la calle de Adrian, así que pienso que las acciones hablan más ruidosamente que palabras.
Ricky: "My reaction? After what Adrian Street did last week, I punched him in the face. Actions speak louder than words.
Demon: "Calle de Adrian, soy confidente yo puedo batir Jody Arnold en mis el propios, sin ayuda de usted. Espero tener esta oportunidad pronto.
Ricky: "I am confident that I can defeat Jody Arnold, on my own without any assistance from Adrian Street. I hope to have that opportunity soon.
Demon: "¡En el medio tiempo, este domingo en la esperanza de Juarez I de enseñarle una lección sobre qué happnes cuando usted se pega su nariz en otra sirven negocio!
Ricky: "While I wait for that match, I will use tommorow nights match against Adrian Street as a chance to teach the man a lesson: not to mess in the affairs of the Blue Demon!
Gene: "All right, wlell there you have it, revenge seems to be on a lot of peoples minds this weekend, gentlemen, good luck this Sunday night in Juarez, and we will have more live action after this!
