GEORGIA HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE
RODDY PIPER © vs. MAD DOG BUZZ SAWYER
Sawyer makes an uncharacteristically high risk mistake here. With Piper looking like he is stalling on the floor, he decides to dive through the ropes. Piper moves. Sawyer hits hard on the ring railing. Piper rolls Mad Dog in and applies a sleeper. Mad Dog goes out @ 17:36. (M)
 
After the match, Piper wakes up Mad Dog. They both stare down the other and slide out from the ring on opposite sides.
 
MR. WRESTLING II vs. PAUL ORNDORFF
Orndorff works on the neck and shoulders throughout the match. He powerslams II and applies the full nelson at the 20-minute mark. The masked man manages to duck down and run Orndorff into the turnbuckles. When Orndorff pulls himself back up, II hits the million dollar knee lift and pins Orndorff to win the $5000 @ 22:03. (P)

Great OMNI card!  All is well when Wrestling II wins a big match...Dream Machine is good enough to beat Hanson without illegal tactics and it cost him this time...Piper/Sawyer would have had the crowd cheering to see them beat the stuffing out of each other...Big SBS fan, but Superstar was just that much better on this night...I always loved where battle royals determined the card and I'm glad you used it here...Great stuff Johnny!

Great card from the Omni.  I am a huge mark for Superstar hope he gets a World Title shot soon.  He would make a great champion.
 
Kudos on the booking and the results.
