They say Olympia will feel the sting of the superplex this week. Olympia tells Orton to shine the CCW belt because it will be his tonight in Birmingham. -New CCW tag team champs, Bob and Brad Armstrong, are congratulated by Thatcher. Bob talks about how proud he is of Brad. Brad says he still has a lot to learn, but teaming with his dad is the best learning experience. The Grapplers and Don Carson say the Armstrongs got lucky in the cage and they will get the belts back tonight. -New U.S. Jr. champ, Terry Taylor, says his feud with Thornton was a tough one and he expects Thornton to fight hard to regain the title. Tonight he faces Mike Jackson and expects a good, clean match. Jackson says that Taylor has the belt that once belonged to him and he is glad he gets a chance to win it back tonight. -The Freebirds talk about how funny the Stud Stable looks in the wigs and headgear. Hayes says he wants to see them without the wigs and headgear and say tonight he and Gordy will take them off. Fuller and Golden insist that the wigs are their natural hair and the headgear is needed because they both have concussions. Tonight the Freebirds will pay for their jokes and they still haven’t forgotten about Olympia. -Ricky Rood brags about beating Brian Adidas last week in Birmingham. He says that no one has as good a body as he does and that he will tear apart Adidas tonight in their rematch. Adidas says Rood has gotten too big for his britches since becoming the Stud Stable’s lackey.

He says Olympia will never come back and he will do the same to Terry Taylor tonight. Taylor says he is disgusted with what Orton did and he will get vengeance for his friend. -The Armstrongs, CCW tag champs, asked for a match against the Stud Stable for what they did to Olympia. Bob says Fuller and Golden must pay. The Stud Stable say the Armstrongs could end up like Olympia and they had better watch out for each other, because “accidents” happen. -The Grapplers and Don Carson say they are upset that they are forced to wrestle the Freebirds.

He says Brian Adidas will suffer for Taylor’s lucky win. Adidas says he needs to win this match to recharge his career. -Ron Fuller is confused as to why Stan Frazier turned on him last week. He says they will wrestle tonight, but he would like to make amends. Frazier says he is tired of always taking a back seat to every other wrestler in CCW. He says it’s time for the Plowboy to stop kissing babies and to start kicking butt. -Ricky Rood comes out dressed in a new sequined robe and is accompanied by too young ladies. He boasts about having the best body in the world and says that all the women love him. He says that the Stud Stable has taught him a lot and he has put it all to good use.
