Announcers: Scott Hudson & Dusty Rhodes
La Parka and Psychosis defeated Super Calo and Lizmark Jr. when Psychosis pinned Lizmark Jr. with the Guillotine Legdrop in 0:07:19.
Rating: ***
After matches between these luchadores in previous weeks ended in countout or DQ, this one finally had a clear winner.
Mortis pinned Norman Smiley after a Death Valley Driver in 0:05:07.
Rating: *** 1/4
[James Vandenberg interfered against Norman Smiley.]
Smiley put up a good fight and even got the Norman Conquest applied, but Mortis powered out and spiked him with a DVD. Smiley got the DOA after the match for good measure. Louie Spicolli wandered out after the match to laugh at Smiley. Dusty reminds us that Spicolli "got to da pay winda" last week by beating Smiley.
Disco Inferno pinned Lenny Lane after a DDT in 0:06:53.
Rating: ***
Rey Mysterio Jr. defeated Bobby Walker via pinfall in 0:06:31.
Rating: ** 1/2
Spot of the night was diving onto Walker standing on the floor with his Springboard Hurricanrana and being powerbombed as a counter. Walker tried to capitalize by sending Rey into the ring steps, but Rey reversed it and Walker was the one to hit the steel. After a gutwrench power bomb on the floor, Mysterio rolled Walker back in the ring and got the pinfall.
High Voltage (Kenny Kaos and Robbie Rage) defeated The Destruction Crew (Mike Enos and Wayne Bloom) when Kaos pinned Enos after a savate kick in 0:08:37.
Rating: *** 1/4
Chris Adams pinned Alex Wright with the Superkick in 0:09:07.
Rating: * 3/4
Wrath pinned Jim Duggan with the Meltdown in 0:05:14.
Rating: -** 1/2
[Brad Armstrong interfered against Wrath.]
Brad Armstrong thought he'd get some revenge from the beatings suffered by the Armstrongs in recent weeks. He snuck out to ringside and pulled down the top rope at the right moment, sending Wrath onto the floor. Then he went after James Vandenberg. Revenge didn't last long as Rancor and Mortis made their way to ringside and pummelled Brad, capped off with a Flatliner on the floor. Duggan tried to capitalize, but it didn't do much good. Duggan's brief comeback ended with a big boot and the Meltdown. Post-match, Vandenberg had his men put the boots to Duggan before leaving. The announcers talk about the path of destruction Vandenberg has been cutting across WCW and wonders who will stop him?
Curt Hennig pinned Scott Putski with the Hennig Plex in 0:05:06.
Rating: * 3/4
[Ric Rude interfered against Scott Putski.]
Before the match, Hennig cut a promo against Lex Luger. Then he made fun of his opponent: "I'm perfect and you're just a putz!"
