Falk, while in his usual rugged ring attire, came out seeming very effete in his action. - “Professor” Bill Ash defeats Perro Aguayo with an Oklahoma roll. - Florida Tag Team Champions Bob Sweetan and Mike George defeated Mike Graham and Terry Orndorff in a match that sees the newcomer Orndorff substitute for a missing Brian Blair, making a very strong showing for himself. But in the end, Sweetan takes down Orndorff with the pile driver. - Southern Heavyweight Champion Greg Valentine defeats Omar Atlas with a figure four to retain the title. 1/29/83 from the Fort Homer Hesterly Armory in Tampa, Florida - “Commando” Mike Boyette defeats Pete Doherty with a version of the camel clutch. - The Assassins #1  defeat “Squire” Dave Taylor and “Gentleman” Jim Breaks after Assassin #1 locked Breaks into a lifting hammerlock submission. Long time fans booed heavily the men in the familiar gold and black masks, but that did little to influence the results. - The Missing Link w/ King Curtis Iaukea defeats “Macho Man” John Ringer in a blood soaked battle after the Link delivered a pair of guided head butts. - The Malenko Brothers defeat Terry Garvin and “his Boy, Tony” in tag team action after Dean Malenko locked the Boy Tony into a Texas Cloverleaf submission hold. - A very vocal “Professor” Bill Ash falls to the returning “Maniac” Mark Rocco thanks to a bridging belly to back suplex after Ash ran his mouth saying that the Assassins showed every fan that British wrestlers are crap. Rocco took it to Ash and after the fall, seemed ready to deliver even more punishment. - Jake “the Snake” Roberts w/ Mr. Pogo and King Curtis defeats Omar Atlas with a vicious DDT. Roberts, with a bandage still over the gash above his left eye, was clinical in his dispatch of Atlas, taking him apart piece by piece before the DDT ended the contest. - Southern Heavyweight Champion Greg Valentine falls to Kevin Sullivan via disqualification when Roberts and the Legion of Doom assault the bad man from Boston as Kevin looked set to pin the Southern Champion. Valentine bails out and leaves Sullivan to the beating as fans shower the ring with garbage.
