THE FREEBIRDS ARE COMING TO GREENSBORO---THIS SUNDAY NIGHT!!!!.
.
.
.
 
MASKED SUPERSTAR + BOB ORTON, JR w/JJ Dillon v ED GEORGE + GREAT SCOTT
 
JJ comes over to the interview area as his men make mincemeat out of their foes.
 
“Just hours away, Bob Caudle and David Crockett, just hours away from those two great men in the ring from becoming new United States Tag Team Champions in Greensboro. As a matter of fact, I am so confident of their success, I have already placed a call to Minnesota inviting the Andersons to come back to the Mid-Atlantic, and defend their world tag team title belts against US!
 
David: “JJ . . that’s counting your chickens before they are hatched! The Sheepherders are one of the top tag teams in the WORLD!
 
JJ: “That’s MISTER DILLON to you son, FOR THE LAST TIME!  
 
"You are right, HOWEVER, and I will give credit where credit is due, the Sheepherders ARE ONE OF THE greatest tag teams in the world. The difference is The Masked Superstar and Bob Orton Jr. are THE GREATEST tag team in the world, and that distinction will be made PERFECTLY clear this Sunday night!
 
With that Orton with an assist from Superstar delivers the superplex to a helps Ed George as Dillon’s team racks up another huge win!
.
 
.
.
Bob: “Fans, speaking of championships, everyone is talking about the World Heavyweight title match Sunday night in Greensboro, and everyone wants to hear from the participants. Let’s go right now to these prerecorded comments from NWA World Heavyweight Champion HARLEY RACE!
.
.
.
.
 
Race: “All I have been hearing for the past month is . . . NO DISQUALIFACTATION . . . NO COUNT OUT . . . NO TIME LIMIT . . . NO CONTROVERSY! . NO DISQUALIFACTATION . . . NO COUNT OUT . . . NO TIME LIMIT . . . NO CONTROVERSY! Well, that seems funny to me, because Ricky Steamboat, buddy, you GOT a 90 minute time limit, and you could get the job done. I was never counted out because I was told the match was OVER . . . and there is NO CONTROVERSY because I beat you TWICE for this belt!
 
“What else do I have to prove! I am so sick, and I am so tired of hearing . NO DISQUALIFACTATION . . . NO COUNT OUT . . . NO TIME LIMIT . . . NO CONTROVERSY this  . .and . NO DISQUALIFACTATION . . . NO COUNT OUT . . . NO TIME LIMIT . . . NO CONTROVERSY . . THAT! . . they are even flying in that Pat O’Connor to referee the match . . . . IT ALL GIVES ME A headache! Ricky Steamboat believe you me, Buddy, when I get done  with you Sunday night in Greensboro, THERE WILL NO LONGER BE ANY CONTROVERSY---EVERYONE including you will see why I am the GREATEST HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPEEN OF ALLL TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME!!!!!

.RICKY STEAMBOAT joins us!
 
Bob: “Boy oh boy, Ricky, ol’ Harley sure seems riled up about this match Sunday night, doesn’t he?
 
Ricky: “Well, let’s be frank Harley Race is a caged animal, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide and he can’t even push around the referee, because Pat O’Conner is about as tough a customer as they come, but remember one thing. A caged animal is very dangerous, and I won’t take that away from Harley Race. But I’ve wrestled you TWICE, Harley Race, and lasted over 2 total hours in the ring with you. There’s wrestlers that haven’t even been able to last 2 MINUTES in the ring with you, but I have studied, analyzed and learned every move you make, every reaction you make, for 2 hours, I know you better than you know yourself, and with these rules set up the way they are, Mr. Caudle, I really, really like my chances.
 
Bob: “Fans, you may just be looking at the next NWA World heavyweight Champion, imagine that! Let’s go to the ring!

BUDDY LANDELL + THE STOMPER w/Gorgeous George Jr V RONNIE GARVIN + DON KERNDOLE
 
Cowardly Landell makes Stomper go out first and keeps short arming the guy as Kernodle and Garvin pummel him, but to his credit Stomper hangs on and goes toe to toe, nose to nose with both men and manages to land an impressive clothesline on Garvin! Down goes Garvin, but what is this? LANDELL NOW EXTENDS HIS ARM, HE WANTS IN! Can you believe this?  
 
Landell steps into the ring and puts Garvin in one wrestling move after another, showboating for the crowd! But at one point he turns his back on Garvin, who manages to tag to Kermode, Landell turns around, THERES KERNODLE! LANDELL WASN’T EXPECTING IT, AND KERNDODLE SCOOPSLAMS HIM! LANDELL LANDS ON HIS BACK, AND FAVORING IT, REACHES OUT FOR THE STOMPER, BUT CANT REACH HIM, AND KERNODLE GRABS LANDELL BY THE HAIR, HIP TOSSES HIM, THEN TAGS IN GARVIN!
 
LANDELL IS ON HIS KNEES BEGGING FOR MERCY BUT THERE WILL BE NONE AS THE FANS CHEER AS GARVIN POUNDS ON LANDELL, BUT THE LANDELL MANAGES TO SLITHER TO TAG TO STOMPER, HERE COMES STOMPER:
.
.
.
.
 
 
POW! HANDS OF STONE TO THE KISSER, AND DOWN GOES STOMPER! Garvin tags out to Kernodle who gets in his long awaited shots, and then Stomper tags to LANDELL! Landell wasn’t paying attention, he was jawjacking with the crowd and wasn’t expecting THE TAG, and turns around, POW! Kernodle nails Landell, then tags to Garvin who suplexes Landell, and as Kernoodle stops Stomper from making the save, GARVIN PINS LANDELL:
 
1
.
.
2
.
.
THREE!!!!
 
GARVIN AND KERNODLE WIN AS RONNIE GARVIN PINS BUDDY LANDELL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING!
 
WAIT! AN ANGERED LANDELL AND STOMPER ATTACK THEM FROM BEHIND! BUT GARVIN AND KERNDOLE FIGHT BACK, AND THROW BOTH MEN OUT OF THE RING, AS STOMPER AND LANDELL THROW A FIT OUTSIDE THE RING, GARVIN AND LANDELL BASK IN THE FANS CHEERS!!!!

UNITED STATES HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION RUFUS R. JONES is here!
 
David: “Rufus R. Jones? You said, ‘Stan Hansen? If you want a match with me, no lariat.’ Big Stan won a match last week without it do you still feel you have an advantage Sunday night?
 
Rufus: “David, it was never about havin’ no advantage. It is about making it FAIR. Ah never thought it was fair that a 300 pound man can go around breakin’ the necks of rasslers all across the NWA with some gimmicked up armpad. Now that aint gonna happen Sunday night, and you know what? That’s the way this dog likes it- FAIR fight, win or lose, no one goes home cryin’, and Stan Hansen, I beats you WITH the armpad, and I beats you WITH the lariat, and Sunday night in Greensboro, ahm gonna beat you EWITHOUT IT!

.
.
.
.
 . . . . and now here comes Jay and JAY TEARS RIGHT INTO EDDIE MANSFIELD! To Eddie’s credit, he fights back, but Jay has the momentum and the fans on his side, and while its great back and forth action, 5 minutes in, Jay goes for the flying body press:
.
.
.
 
.
.
.
.
EDDIE SIDESTEPS IT, AND JAY FLIES THROUGH THE ROPES ON THE THE FLOOR! As Winona checks on an sub-conscious Jay, Eddie goes to the crowd, and grabs a chair:
.
.
.
.
.
" . . .  .and smashes Jay over the head with it!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?????????????
 
The ref orders the bell rung, that will be a DQ and a helpless Jay Youngblood is laid out in front of the announcers area!
 
As Winona screams for help, Eddie then goes under the ring to get the paper bag, and pulls out . . .

David: "EDDIE WHAT ARE YOU DOING! STOP IT!
 
Eddie looks into the camera, a man possessed!: "Jay Youngblood is an Indian! If I said it once I said it before, that means he is a DRUNK! I'm going to prove it right now!
 
EDDIE TAKES THE BOTTLE, walks over to Jay AND SHOOES POOR LITTLE WINONA AWAY . .

" . . . .  .AND STICKS IT IN JAYS MOUTH AND FORCE FEEDS HIM THE WHISKEY AS JAYS LITTLE SISTER WINONA BEGS HIM TO STOP!!!! THIS IS DISGUSTING! DAVID CROCKETT DROPS HIS MIKE AND TRIES TO STOP IT, BUT EDDIE SHOVES HIM AWAY!

Buddy: “Just an update. Ricky Steamboat is getting stitched up by a medic as we speak, and he insists on the world title match going on in Greensboro as scheduled. As for Jay Youngblood, he is being rushed to the hospital to have his stomach pumped, and because of this unfortunate set of circumstances, I am cancelling his match against Eddie Mansfield for that night, and for that reason I have asked Jim Crockett Promotions to not only schedule a substitute match, but a second BONUS match for the great fans in Greensboro, and I have just gotten off the phone with the NWA, and have been promised MIL MASCARAS will make a special, last minute appearance in Greensboro this Sunday nigt!
 
Buddy leaves!

An action packed show. Landel got what he deserved for all his mess. Mansfield crossed the line here, both with Youngblood and Steamboat. I can't wait to see The Sheepherders vs. Orton and The Superstar. Nice promo from Race. Good lead-in to Greensboro.
