How will Adams and Mantell fare against Garvin and Roberts? Will Sunshine get involved? Can Parsons figure out a way to beat Super Destroyer #1, or does Devastation, Inc. have a sinister plan? And who will join me to share this riveting episode with me?

To begin the show, we head to Fort Worth to join David Von Erich versus Kamala in progress. Instead of his charge getting pinned, Friday throws in the towel while David has Kamala firmly in an Iron claw. After the match, Akbar literally lashes out at Friday with a whip. When David turns his back, Akbar lashes him too. How dastardly! David grabs Akbar until Kamala rescues his manager. As Kamala beats David down, Kerry saves his brother by nailing Kamala. Meanwhile, Mike tries to help his brother, but fellow babyfaces restrain him. Akbar gets too close, so Mike pops him.

Next, we revisit the cage match between Kerry and “Nature Boy” Ric Flair from last Christmas. In front of a cage, Kerry cuts a promo on Michael Hayes. Afterward, Hayes rebuts while wearing an Atlanta Braves hat.
