Randy Savage (c) w/Miss Elizabeth vs Bad News Brown (WWF World Heavyweight Championship-10/10)
Hell yeah, love to see this finally make tape after weeks of fun promos. Randy rushes him for something new for News, and the big man is sent running for the first time in his WWF run. News uses Li to goad Randy to the floor and then chops him in the throat and beats the shit out of him, and we get some wonderful Savage selling right off the bat. News shows he can hang as a big scary brusier beating up the champ as he lays down a hell of a beating. Savage fights from underneath as News keeps shutting him down and hitting him worse and harder. NEWS HANGS HIM UPSIDE DOWN AND HEADBUTTS HIM IN THE GUTS TO DROP HIM ON HIS HEAD. GODDAMN. News stays on him and shuts down a few attempted comebacks, but he never actually goes for the pin as he's too wild. Randy ducks the Blaster and backdrops him to the floor and hits the axe handle and then another on the inside. They brawl on the outside where News uses Liz as a shield and throws her at Randy, and runs back in to win by countout.
**3/4

Post match, News steals the title and parades around with it until Savage runs in and attacks to him to get it back.

WWF Superstars of Wrestling
October 15th, 1988
Indianapolis, IN

Match#1 Rick Rude w/Bobby Heenan vs David Isley

Another good 60 second for Rude as he gets screwed for time again. He wins with the RA.
*

Post match, Rude kisses another woman.

WWF Update-
-Gene covers the latest WWF Magazine and all the happenings as of late.

Match#2 The Blue Blazer vs Joe Cruz
Sick 3 minutes from Owen as he breaks out his wild array of offence that still stuns Jess and Vince, and the crowd is white hot for all of it. Owen hits the tope to the floor to crush the kid against the steel rail, and then follows up with the Moonsault to win
**

Match#3 The Big Boss Man w/Slick vs Jim Evans
Jesse lays right into Vince as a born again republican that should adore law and order, and Vince is left scrambling to give him a proper response and can't find one. Anyway, this is far too short in a bullshit call for our Boss, and now i'm mad. He wins with his Slam.
1/2*

Post match, Boss cuffs and beats his ass.

WWF Events Center-
-Bravo for sure says words along with Frenchy.

Mr Perfect plays chess perfectly.

The Hart Foundation debut their proper theme.

Match#4 The Hart Foundation vs Rick Gantner & Tom Stone
HF now get 3 minutes in another tremendous squash. Anvil throws a kid into the corner and Bret murders him with a dropkick right to the face to knock his head off, and then Anvil batters him with elbows!!. They keep doing great stuff, and it's just another one that everyone needs to watch and enjoy. The boys with a gross looking Hart Attack.
**

WWF Events Center-
-They now replay Bobby's promo about how big Andre is.

Bobby and Taylor come out to the ring where Bobby formally changes his name to THE RED ROOSTER. LMAO HOLY SHIT.

Match#5 The Red Rooster w/Bobby Heenan vs Lanny Poffo
Bobby coaches and yells at him a lot to not fuck this up, and Rooster puts for a fine little angry squash. helps that Poffo is more than willing to eat tons of shit to make it work, but Rooster holds his end up to his credit. Rooster wins with his bad looking Deathlock.
*1/2

The Brother Love Show-
-Duggan runs out like a big jerk, so Love rightly points out that he doesn't love his country or flag like Mr Bravo does.
-Hack gets very grumpy and yells, but Bravo comes out and stares him down as Love sings his praises. Bravo says Hack and America both STINK, and Duggan tells him to leave it like a bully. Hack gets his board and chases them off the stage and leads a USA chant.

Match#6 Ron Bass vs Mike Richards
Short and not much as Bass is sort of bad and lazy now that he's stuck with Beefcake, and yeah fair enough. He wins with the pedigree.
1/2*

Post match, he uses Betsy to hang the kid.

Match#7 Hercules vs Barry Horowitz
Babyface Herc is dogshit as he was a heel, so this is really bad. Ted has a cut in swearing revenge on his slave not working for him. Herc wins with his rack attack.

1/8*

WWF Wrestling Challenge
October 16th, 1988
Louisville, KY

Match#1 Akeem w/Slick vs Bob Emery

Sweet 2 minutes for the now fat long haired dancing man. i miss OMG, but he's still fucking rad and makes it work through force of dance. Akeem wins with the 747 and a massive splash.
**

Mean Gene-
-Jake Roberts is the guest this week.
-Jake repeats the last 4 months of promos against Rude, and no new ground is broken there. He at least says he's going to bring his wife to ringside with him from now on so she can slap Rude after he DDT's him.
-PLEASE end this feud.

Match#2 Ted DiBiase w/Virgil vs David Isley
Ted also gets 2 minutes and is still a violent pissed off squash guy, and i assume it stays this way until he gets broken down and stops giving a shit. He batters the kid on the floor and in the ring, and it's wonderful. Heenan says Hercule needed to shut up and be happy, but he's an idiot. Ted wins with the MDD.
**

Post match, he shoves the cash in the kids mouth.

WWF Events Center-
-Ron Bass is going to choke and break Brutus' awful head of hair with the help of Betsy.
-Hercules is very sad at being let down by Heenan after helping him for so long. He's no man's slave and will get revenge on everyone.

Match#3 The Rockers vs Bubba Kirk & Tom Burton
Little under 2 minutes for the boys this go, but still a lot of killer work as they're hyped and on fire and go wild with all the big hits. Shawn gets it done with a splash off Marty's shoulders this week.
*3/4

Match#4 Greg Valentine w/Jimmy Hart vs David Stoudimiere

Holy shit what an episode. Hammer does amazing Hammer things for 90 seconds, and there's nothing better for the soul after a long day than that. Figure Four gets Hammer a win.
*1/2

WWF Events Center-
-Ken Patera works here and says words.
-Heenan again says he shows respect for the king of the WWF, and it's time for Warrior and Savage to start showing that respect as the king has his eyes on their titles. LONG LIVE THE KING.

Match#5 The Ultimate Warrior vs Brian Costello
Rough one for Warrior as his offence looks extra shitty and bad, and he's lost and terrible and can't cover for himself. He wins with the combo.
1/4*

WWF Update-
-Lord Hayes recaps the birth of Red Rooster.

Match#6 The Young Stallions vs Sandy Beach & Mike Sharpe
Perfectly ok outing for the young pretty boys doing their fine ass basics, and well not much else. Roma wins with a Dropkick.
*

Match#7 Dino Bravo w/Frenchy Martin vs Tommy Angel

Nah

TONIGHT; HULK HOGAN ON THE BROTHER LOVE SHOW,

Match#1 King Haku w/Bobby Heenan vs David Isley
Haku is given 2 minutes to unload a murder with kicks and elbows and awesome power stuff, and it's a fantastic time and then some. He wins with his Superkick.
**

The Brother Love Show!
-I LOOOOOOOVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU. When you lose love you lose everything, and his guest had love for four long years. But then he lose that love, and he lost control as a result. His guest has no love and therefore no control, Hulk Hogan. He comes out a big pop, but not quite the wild ones of even a few months ago. (Something in that)
-Love says he proved he had no love the last time he was on here and he's out of control as he put his hands on him. His benefactor wants him to spread that love so he's given him some protection against Hogan, AND THE BIG BOSS MAN AND SLICK WALK OUT. OH SHIT. Love says they have love in their hearts and can stop Hogan from losing control.
-Slick calls him an ex champion and says Boss is going to put him behind bars. Hogan shoves him and says all the fans know he's the judge and jury and he's going have him singing the Hulkamania prison blues. He's not a caged man as he's free, and there's no way you can control that.
-Slick laughs and says this fool is out of control and he's going into solitary confinement AND BOSS MAN HITS HIM IN THE FUCKING FACE WITH THE NIGHTSTICK. YES KILL HIM DEAD. SLICK SPRAYS HIM IN THE EYES WITH SOMETHING, AND BOSS ATTACKS THE RIBS AND BACKS WITH TONS OF WICKED SHOTS AND KNOCKS THE LIFE OUT OF THIS PIECE OF SHIT. HE CUFFS HIM TO THE BARRICADE AND KEEPS HITTING HIM. HE STARTS CHOKING HIM WITH THE STICK. Sadly, Hogan has the balls to no sell and kicks Boss in the dick and chases them off with his hands still cuffed in the rail as he runs after them.
-Amazing angle up to the point Hogan just has to be fucking Hogan. Done with this piece of shit as of right now.



Match#2 Tito Santana vs Porkchop Cash.
Holy hell, Porks in the WWF. Killer 2 minutes as Tito is Tito and works as hard as he can, and Cash bumps and sells his ass off to make it even better than normal. Tito gets it done with the Forearm.
**

WWF Events Center-
--The Ultimate Warrior says this package did not come naturally, for he was sent in a capsule from a place long from here and he came here for one reason. TO ATTACK AND KEEP COMING. NOT TO WANT, BUT JUST TO GIVE. NOT TO WANT, BUT JUST TO SEND. SEND THE POWER OF THE WARRIOR DOWN THE THROATS OF EVERYONE IN THE WWF UNTIL THEY BECOME SICK OF IT. BECAUSE THIS FREAK OF NATURE RIGHT HERE IS JUST BEGINNING TO SWELL AND WHEN HE GETS BIG ENOUGH BROTHER, THERE WON'T BE ROOM ENOUGH FOR ANYBODY ELSE BUT HE AND THE WARRIORS, FLOATING THROUGH THE VEINS IN THE POWER OF THE WARRIOR.
-News says when he wins the title he's going to have the biggest party you've ever seen. He dares everyone to come down and fight him as he's not hiding, and he's going to show what meaness and anger is all about as he's going to teach them all.

In the ring, Bobby is standing by as Fink introduces the jobbers. Bobby gets the mic and says he promised the family was going to get meaner and tougher, SO HERE IS TULLY BLANCHARD AND ARN ANDERSON. THE BRAIN BUSTERS. OH MY FUCKING GOD.

Match#3 The Brain Busters w/Bobby Heenan vs Tommy Angel & Bob Emery
BB have a cut in saying they're the smartest and they're going to complete the dynasty. This is amazing as Tully messes around on the mat and acts like a massive dick, and Arn is a viscous and grumpy old bastard that destroys an arm like no one else. Maybe the best 80's team of them all when it's said and done. They kick the holy shit out of them as Arn hits the Spinebuster, and Tully finishes the job with the Slingshot Suplex.
**

Survivor Series Update-
-Gene explains how the teams work along with eliminations.
-The Mega Powers will co-captain a team against Big Boss Man.
-Brutus & Warrior will co-captain a team against HTM & Bass.
-Jake & Hacksaw will co-Captain against Bravo & Andre
-POP will lead a team against Demo and their team.
-Buy it on PPV.

Match#4 Jake Roberts vs Barry Horowitz
The great squashes continue as Jake gets 2 minutes to give a shit again, and really shows that with some nice arm work along with his offence. Jakes wins with the DDT.
**

WWF Update-
-Gene covers the issues between Bravo and Hacksaw.

Match#5 Akeem w/Slick vs Scott Hudson
Vince is very mad and says Hogan could come out here and beat everyone up if he wasn't in the hospital. Fuck off. Akeem also gets 2 minutes and kicks and dances up a storm with a super fun squash on this amazing episode. Akeem fat man murders this fool and wins with his epic fat dude squash,
**

Mr Perfect plays golf perfectly.

Match#6 The Powers of Pain w/The Baron vs Larry Stevens & Bob Blackburn
Jesse makes fun of Baron for being the ugliest man he's ever seen in his life! Barb carries the load once more and does amazing Barb things, and Lord is fine enough. Barb wins with his Headbutt.
*1/2

WWF Wrestling Challenge
October 23rd, 1988
Toledo, OH

Match#1 Honky Tonk Man w/Jimmy Hart vs Jim Evans

Fine enough angry HTM work for 2 minutes. He's still not amazing or built for it, but he's ok enough to make it mostly watchable. HTM wins with the SSR.
*

WWF Special Report-
-They once again cover Hercules turning face.
-Ted says he's going to beat him into submission and get his slave back.
-Hercules belongs to no man, and Ted will pay.

Match#2 The Blue Blazer vs Gene Ligon
Owen has some new light blue tights on and they look really sick. This is another great 2 minutes as he's a house of fire breaking out all different types of takedowns and cool offence. Owen wins with the Moonsault.
**

WWF Events Center-
-Demo love to fight and beat people up, and they don't give a hoot whose going to fight them. it's picnic time whenever they get to hurt someone.
-Jake rambles a lot about Rude jumping in the wrong water and drowning for it.

Match#3 Bad News Brown vs Tom Wolfe
News is all amped up now that's feuding with Randy, so this is way better than normal as he beats the dog shit out of the poor bastard to send a message. News wins with the Blaster.
**

Match#4 Sam Houston vs George South
Awful 2 minutes for this goofball. His offence looks terrible and lame, and he's just a massive level below so many people. It actually makes me angry to see him. He wins with his shitty looking bulldog
1/3*

Match#5 Ron Bass vs Red Tyler

Also 2 minutes, but actually good as Bass hits hard and acts like a wild cowboy going after some loser in a saloon that looked at him wrong. He breaks out some gross knees and strikes and puts the boots to the kid. He wins with the pedigree.
**

Stage Interview-
-Demolition & Fuji are the guests.
-Fuji says his men train and fight hard, and they're ready for this. Smash says you've got to be rich, or beat someone's brains in. Fuji made them who they are today, and they can all bring it on and maybe not even make it to SVS, Ax says in the definition of demolition is to win at all costs. THEY'RE WINNERS.

Match#6 The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers w/Jimmy Hart vs Chris Zarna & Bill Bowman
Tremendous 2 minutes from the best team to never win the big one, Sick strikes and rad double teams along with stooging and stalling, just a great time by all. They're also throwing these nasty looking forearms to the back that have a wicked sound to them, and it's awesome. They win with the Seated Senton.
**
