Bill & Boyd are joined by matchmaker 'Grizzly' Smith who announces that Gary Hart, the Spoiler (Don Jardine) & 'Maniac' Mark Lewin will not be appearing today live due to previous problems over the past few weeks with Rock Hunter and the Masked Assassins. 'Grizzly' tells the fans that the two teams will meet the week of NOv. 11-16 in a series of Steele Cage matches with the losing tag team leaving Mid-South for 6 months. This does not affect managers Hart or Hunter.
 
They follow with a taped interview with Hart then follow ringside with Mike McGuirk interviewing Hunter. Hunter says his Assassins will prove they are superior to the Spoiler & Lewin.

Fourth Match. Single Match. 1-fall 10 minute time limit. Akira Maeda wrestled to a time limit draw with Mr. Wrestling (Tim Woods) and got a standing ovation

Great to see Mr. Wrestling with a good win at this point. I like the way you are portraying the Rougeaus. Not good for The Assassins to lose going into those cage matches. Nice way for the JYD promo to continue the Wahoo rivalry. Like the cage showdown between Team Hart and Team Hunter.
 
Good action here.
