The show opens with Gene Okerlund interviewing Kevin Sullivan and the Giant… and yes, there was a time where they tried to pass off Giant as the son of Andre The Giant – hence the similar looking singlet… except Paul Wight is obviously not French. Harlem Heat somehow lose the tag titles to the American Males (Bagwell fell on top of Booker for the win)… don’t worry, the Heat would get them back eventually. After another Ric Flair promo taunting Arn Anderson, Paul Orndorff, somehow looking 80 years old despite being half that age, defeated Johnny B. Badd in a nothing match.
Randy Savage refuses Flair’s help with Lex Luger, which draws out Lex Luger so they can go at it verbally. This is followed by a replay of some WCW show where Hulk Hogan’s motorcycle is run over by the Giant’s monster truck… see, because they’re gonna have a monster truck battle at Halloween Havoc. And finally, Ric Flair defeated Brian Pillman via submission in the main event that lasted a little over five minutes, but it was fun while it lasted, I guess.
Three shows in and the matches are starting to feel less big time than the did initially. For what it’s worth, it wasn’t a bad show… but it also wasn’t all that important unless you really want your American Male fix.
