Georgia Heavyweight Title
Dick Slater vs. Bobby Duncum © w/Sir Oliver Humperdink
Slater comes to the ring in a hockey mask to protect the face that was burned by Duncum. The champ and his manager protest but it falls on deaf ears. A series of head butts to the ribs midway through the match really put a hurting on the champ.  
 
Later, Slater gets caught in the ropes and Duncum gets the mask off. He busts up Slater and looks ready to put him away. Slater catches Duncum with a desperation leg whip, driving the face hard into a turnbuckle. Slater gets the mask back on and starts brutally head butting Duncum’s nose. Humperdink pulls his man to the floor and they walk to the back. Despite Slater’s ranting, the champion takes a COUNTOUT LOSS @ 18:33. (P)

Great house show. I would have bought a ticket just for the DiBiase match alone. I will say though... Slater had to cheat in order to beat such a great man as Duncum. Poor guy had his nose busted up due to the shenanigans of Slater. I hope Slater gets fined and suspended for such dastardly actions.
