The Australians w/Steve Rackman vs. Ric Drasin and Red Bastein
 
Ron Miller and Larry O'Dea have returned to Florida and they will be a force to be reckoned with. The veteran Bastein and the young Drasin will be a very good test. The early minutes of the match are very exciting. The Australians tag in and out, but Bastein and Drasin match them. The men from “Down Under” trap Drasin in the wrong side of town. They work him over until he is able to escape and tag in Red. Bastein cleans house. The match goes back and forth until Miller boomerangs Drasin into O'Dea clothesline and the Australians get the pin.
Winners-The Australians (18:28)

Kevin Sullivan vs. Nelson Royal w/Great Bolo
 
This has turned into a great rivalry. Both men are very good mat wrestlers, but Royal has the Great Bolo at ringside. Sullivan starts the match with a dizzying display of wrestling moves. Royal is frustrated and takes to the floor to confer with Bolo. He returns and tries to rough up Sullivan. Kevin is up to the task and the match intensifies. Royal whips Sullivan into the ropes and slaps on the abdominal stretch. Kevin gets to the ropes and the hold is broken. After a quick series of holds and counter holds, Royal rolls up Sullivan. Kevin reverses it and “Mr. Official I” counts the fall. Royal and Bolo are stunned, but the Tampa crowd goes crazy.

Austin Idol (Champion) vs. The Spoiler w/Sir Oliver Humperdink
 
Mr. Official I stands in the ring. This could be a controversial choice of referees. The Spoiler and Humperdink come to the ring. The argue with the masked man. The Champion enters the ring next, to the cheers of the crowd. The bell rings and both men circle one another. The Spoiler uses the hair to take a headlock. Mr. Official I calls for the break. He is on top of things. The early moments of the mask go at a methodical pace, which is in the Spoiler's favor. Idol picks up the pace. He goes to fisticuffs, but the masked referee stops him. He is going to call in down the middle. Again the match is very even. Neither man is able to take control. Idol backdrops the Spoiler and goes for the cover, but the masked man kicks out at two. Spoiler uses several forearm blows to stun Idol. He grabs a wristlock and walks the ropes. He takes Idol over and works on the arm. Things seem to be going the Challenger's way. Idol seems to be in trouble. Spoiler whips the Champion into the ropes and slaps on the claw. This could be it! Idol fights it, but he goes to the mat. Idol's shoulders are down. Mr. Official counts 1...2...3! We have a new Southern Champion! Spoiler and Humperdink celebrate in the ring. They taunt the masked official. You have to admit he called it down the middle.
