Guess what? Another Ted DiBiase recap.
$10,000 Challenge Match
Nikolai Volkoff vs. Tatanka
I can't believe Volkoff is still a thing. Volkoff hits approximately 100 kicks in the early going. Tatanka tries to make a comeback, but he gets hit with a reverse elbow. He ducks a clothesline though and hits one of his own and then a dropkick to send Volkoff over the top rope. Back in the ring and Volkoff is kicking again. Tatanka comes back again with some chops and gets a 2 count after a top rope chop. Tatanka gets a small package and gets the victory to put us out of our misery here. Randy Savage quickly comes into the ring to rub it in DiBiase's face that he's losing $10,000. DiBiase says that Tatanka could never beat his Lex Luger, but Tatanka says he could on his worst day. Out comes Luger and they challenge each other to a match. If you like chops and kicks, this one was for you.
Match Rating: 1/2*
Headshrinkers vs. Joey Stallings & Barry Hardy
Samu hits a second rope DDT and then hit a double clothesline. They hit the double Skull Crushing Finale and then the top rope splash for the easy victory. They seemed a little unmotivated here.
Match Rating: 1/4*
Next week it's Shawn Michaels vs. Razor Ramon in a big time match.
Jim Neidhart vs. Jim Powers
Powers is still a jobber despite looking light years better than all of the other ones we usually see. Neidhart sends him flying over the top rope. Powers gets no offense in here for whatever reason and Neidhart puts on the Camel Clutch for the victory.
Match Rating: 1/4*
Jim Ross brings out Alundra Blayze. Remember her? She talks about Luna and Bull Nakano, the latter of which she will be wrestling last week. Out comes Luna and she claims that she's the one who brought Bull to the US and then leaves. Just in case you didn't know, Alundra is a member of the New Generation.
Yokozuna vs. Adam Bomb
Bomb tries a series of clotheslines and then a shoulder tackle to knock Yokozuna out of the ring and we go to a commercial break. Yoko quickly recovers and slows things down. Bomb is able to avoid a splash in the corner. He follows that up with some clotheslines and a DDT. Bomb hits a second rope clothesline and out comes Harvey Wippelman and Kwang. Kwang trips up Bomb's feet behind the ref's back. Bomb goes out of the ring and starts dominating Kwang. Bomb is counted out and Yoko just watches as Bomb throws Wippleman onto Kwang. This was better than most would probably anticipate.
Match Rating: *
Duke Droese vs. Duane Gill
Droese dominates, as he should. Lawler calls in and rambles on while Droese hits his finisher and I actually dozed off during this match. This was nothing.
Match Rating: 1/4*
Well, next week's show is stacked, but what about this week? This week was filled with mostly things that don't matter, unless you were for some reason hooked on the Million Dollar Corporation. We are starting to trend into one of the WWE's worst stretches and it's starting to show the signs.
Overall Rating: 43%
