Match 1: “Wild Thing” versus Muhammed the Butcher (w/ Abudadein)

Highlights:

Wild Thing nailed Muhammed with a series of big boots and chased Abudadein around the ring.
When Muhammed took advantage of the distraction, he clobbered Wild Thing with a double axe handle.
Since Muhammed had already exhausted his vast arsenal of moves, he consulted with Abudadein on the apron.

Nonetheless, he tossed Wild Thing down to the concrete floor and consulted with Abudadein again.

With the anonymous referee distracted, Wild Thing employed a fire extinguisher and doused Muhammed with it.

Wild Thing clotheslined and pinned Muhammed at 4:05.

Rating: -*

Summary: C’mon Abrams! Wild Thing’s not a ring general so the belief that his carrying this tub of goo to anything decent was foolhardy if not asinine. We’re off to a great start!

After the match, Wild Thing brings Abudadein into the ring the hard way and vaults him atop the blinded Muhammed. However, I will give credit where it’s due. Both Albano and Sammartino went into full Mystery Science Theater 3000 mode on commentary.

Match 2: B. Brian Blair versus Sonny West

Highlights:

For those curious, I have NO CLUE who Sonny West is.

Blair slammed West and followed with a knee drop.
As Blair suplexed him, West rebounded with a slam.
West then mounted the top turnbuckle, but Blair caught and slammed him down to the mat.
When Blair clotheslined him, he hooked a sleeper.
West went OUT COLD; thus, Blair won at 3:10.

Rating: DUD

TO THE POINT: Herb Abrams and Albano interview Mr. Red along with Super Ninja. As the discussion gets heated, Abrams threatens to toss him off the segment, Mr. Red crows about taking the Captain’s Corner. Abrams calls him “pure trash,” but Mr. Red claims prejudice. While Albano laughs at him, Mr. Red claims to be “in control” of the UWF. This is nothing but a shouting match.

Conclusion: SKIP. THIS. EPISODE. I mean it. The wrestling was horrible. The incessant plug for the house show are annoying. And the talk show segment makes Jerry Springer Emmy-worthy.

Next week, Lenny promises the “long-awaited return of ‘Dangerous’ Dan Spivey and the possible arrival of the Ultimate Warrior.”

TV Rating: NONE
