Match 1: “Dr. Death” Steve Williams versus Robbie Allen

He then steamrolled Allen with a clothesline before hooking a vertical suplex for another 2.
As he tossed Allen to the floor, Williams rammed him back-first into the ring post twice.
He then slammed Allen on the concrete floor, yanked him back into the ring, and slammed him again.
After he bowled over Allen with a pair of three-point stance tackles, Williams hit an Oklahoma Stampede.

1-2-3.
Williams won at 5:09.

Rating: DUD

Match 2: “Cowboy” Bob Orton versus Stephan DeLeon

Highlights:

Orton provided DeLeon with a chiropractic adjustment along with a back elbow.
As DeLeon gave Orton a cross corner whip, he ate boot on his follow-through.
Orton then mounted the second rope and scored with a flying fist drop.
When the Reseda faithful chanted “su-per-plex,” Orton clotheslined DeLeon.
He then military-pressed DeLeon into a backbreaker and hoisted him onto the top turnbuckle.
After he destroyed DeLeon with a superplex, Orton pinned him at 5:48.

Rating: **

Summary: With the Reseda faithful behind him, Orton gave them their money’s worth with this destruction.

After the match, Orton reminds us about the Orndorff’s “cheap victory” against him, calls him out, and refuses to leave.

Match 3: B. Brian Blair (w/ Honey) versus Louie Spicolli

Highlights:

Spicolli was a mere teenager at this point at 19.

Seeking respite, Spicolli went to the concrete floor but almost met Honey’s cattle prod.
Blair reversed a cross corner whip and backdropped Spicolli.
As Blair backdropped him again, Spicolli again sought refuge outside the ring.
He then attempted to leap over the top rope back into the ring and botched it.

After Blair clotheslined him, he mounted the second turnbuckle and launched a flying elbow smash.
He then scored with a knee drop and followed with a vertical suplex.
While he landed an elbow drop, Blair powerslammed Spicolli.
He then locked Spicolli in a Sharpshooter, and Spicolli submitted at 4:09.

Highlights:

No, folks, this isn’t the Len Denton version of the Grappler, unfortunately.

When he returned Grappler to the ring, Orndorff clotheslined him.

Match 6: Billy Jack Haynes versus Colonel DeBeers

Highlights:

Much to DeBeers’ chagrin, Larry Sampson will be the referee for this match.
While DeBeers complained about Sampson’s presence, Haynes ambushed him before the bell.
He supplied DeBeers with a back elbow and followed with an unbelievable knee lift. Seriously, DeBeers went airborne from it.
As Haynes slammed him, DeBeers rebounded with a guillotine on the top rope.
He then chased after Haynes and guillotined him on the steel railing. How dastardly!
When he guillotined Haynes with the bottom rope, DeBeers landed an elbow smash.
He then scored with a running guillotine as I sense a pattern here.

Sorry, Chester.
Regardless, the Reseda faithful chanted “Bil-ly,” and DeBeers slammed their hero.
DeBeers then mounted the top turnbuckle, but Haynes caught and slammed him down to the mat.
After Haynes launched another spectacular knee lift, he knocked DeBeers down to the concrete floor.
Haynes then leaped from the apron and delivered a flying knee drop on the floor.
Back in the ring, Haynes gave DeBeers a cross corner whip followed by a corner clothesline.
He then hit a standing dropkick, mounted the second turnbuckle, and hammered DeBeers with a flying fist drop.
While he rammed DeBeers face-first into the mat, Haynes got 2.
Haynes then leapfrogged Sampson, but DeBeers shoved Sampson into a bulldozing Haynes. Evil!
As Sampson struggled to his feet, Haynes applied a full nelson.

Before Sampson could ask him if he wanted to submit, DeBeers booted him down to the mat. Nefarious!
Sampson rightfully called for the bell to disqualify DeBeers.
Consequently, Haynes won by DQ at 8:09.

Rating: ***

Summary: Despite another schmozz finish, this is the best match the UWF has had in its infancy.

After the match, DeBeers attacks Sampson from behind and OBLITERATES him with a DDT. Referee Jesse Hernandez enters the ring to send DeBeers packing. Before he leaves, DeBeers spits on Sampson.

Conclusion: With a solid main event that included an ongoing storyline, this show is coming around. The Orton-Blair confrontation should go somewhere while the Albano-Tolos one may not. Nevertheless, this was a very entertaining episode. Check it out!
