  1. Flash flood warning! It’s not Saddam Hussein getting the headlines it’s Austin Idol. Hussein the biggest heel of 1990. Idol has a Hitler reference too. Gilbert with the hard sell for the tag match. It’s his town. He's giving Lawler a good run for that title right now.
  2. Lawler says he is not behind the Gilbert bounty. He’s more than happy to go after Gilbert himself. There is friction between Gilbert and Idol due to Bigelow being involved in the previous tag match. Rematch with no disqualifications. Show is on wednesday nights now or maybe that has to do with the holidays.
  3. Some type of raffle prize where Lawler’s pulls a fans name out of a box to win $100. Gilbert and Idol attack looking to collect the bounty. Bigelow saves Lawler from further beating. Tag match. Those referees in Memphis sure do get beat up. Black Magic just seems to be standing around in the ring in the post match brawl.
  4. There are now wanted posters for Eddie Gilbert. He says he not responsible for the bounty after Lawler. Big bounty for Gilbert as $50K. Gilbert ain’t wrestling on TV. The people will need to pay to see him wrestle. Big money being offered up on all thse bounties.
  5. Heavy on the Iraq invasion of Kuwait. Saddam send Slaughter a gift. New boots. Slaughter will conquer the Ultimate Warrior at the Rumble. He will bring the title to Baghdad. Was the L.A. Coliseum still booked for WrestleMania at this point?
  6. DiBiase getting a message from Virgil. Cash is thicker than blood. Virgil will do whatever DiBiase tells him to do. Virgil is looking more disapproving of having to deal with the Million Dollar Man. This stuff was hinted more at early in year but now it will be a huge focus of 91.
  7. Piper drags Perfect around the ring by the hair. Piper looking good in this match. He kicks out of the Perfect Plex. That move became useless over the course of the year. Perfect ends up getting counted out. Good Piper performance withe the typical non finish for his matches. Overall, WWF didn't really deliver a whole lot of strong matches for the year.
  8. Bock is cranking in that side headlock. Not great match but Bock could still go for his age. He takes a big suplex at the end too.
  9. Lou Thesz! He just looks legit as a wrestler even at his age. 74 years old. That’s crazy. It’s not a great match but it’s a a 74 year old Thesz and he he still looks physically good. Chono gets the STF out of nowhere. Interesting to see this.
  10. Casas has a different outfit. Giant Gonzales ripped this one off. Some good spots and action but I’m still waiting for that big Casas match in Japan.
  11. Albano thinks Larry should be more concerned with David at this point since Bruno has retired. Hard hitting question and answer.
  12. Larry Z talks about retiring Bruno Sammartino ten years ago. Get over it dude. I am surprised that David was still around at this point.
  13. Louie Louie. Albano wants to know why he uses Cutie Pie as a nickname. Yeah, that name doesn’t fit. Lou cuts him off as he’s not a WWF wrestler from the early 80’s. Lou thinks Spicolli is the king of soft.
  14. Pear Harbor job. Will wrestlers be using 9/11 references in 40 years from now? Match has been set between Orndorff and Williams in NYC. Williams is going hurt Orndorff.
  15. Clips from Starrcade match. Solie thinks Sting is battered emotionally. Now we hear the voice of Ric Flair. He’s looking to win title for 7th time. They just need to completely move past the Black Scorpion sham.
  16. Zenk thinks he can beat Arn Anderson for the TV title. Arn thinks if Zenk wants to elevate himself he will have to bring it.
  17. Will Rip Rogers ever win a match? Then again it’s been just time limit draws for Taylor. The flying forearm is not a believable finish for Taylor. He gets the win. Too bad Rogers didn'get a bit more of a push.
  18. Eddie is the new Lawler and he knows Jerry feels the same way. Brief but good promo.
  19. Cornette. Where you been? Jim talks about the bounty against Lawler. The Fabulous Ones are back together to help back up Lawler and stop the bounty from being collected. No more Midnights. I'm curious to see what involvement Cornette had in wrestling in 91.
  20. Big entrance to start the clip coming through the floor. Lawler taking on some of wrestling’s biggest stars. Savage, Bockwinkel, Kamala, Hennig. Really good video.
  21. Lawler talks about the bounty against him. Idol is one of those ready to collect. Lawler reminds Idol of what happened between them in previous match. Jerry tells all the wrestlers looking to collect the bounty they know where to find him.
  22. DiBiase is keeping himself busy by feuding with both Von Erich and the Rhodes. Dustin is back. I wondered why he didn’t have a spot at Survivor Series. Dustin trying to talk like Dusty. Rhodes let us know you can’t buy this common family.
  23. Mountie pulling over people on horse. When I left concert a few years back I was walking on the wrong side of the street and got charged by a state police on horse. That horse wanted to run me down big time. Don’t screw around with a determined horse.
  24. Dick the Bruiser as referee. Special referees tend to suck. Multiple Black Scorpions make their way to the ring. Fans object with lights descends from the ceiling. Giant pod from outer space. The real Black Scorpion! Black Scorpion looks to have shrunk from his previous appearances. He begs off from Sting. He’s also wrestling a basic match. That snapmare looked familiar. Heyman tries to explain that this is the original Scorpion wrestling for first time. Pedestrian action at this point. Don’t even see the point of the cage right now. Scorpion uses it somewhat but it’s more of a background object. Black Scorpion randomly crotches himself on the ropes for a comedy spot. This match was crap. Hmm, why are the Horsemen in the ring attacking Sting? Jim Ross has great vision to be able to see that the Scorpion was Ric Flair as the camera angle at the time was real poor when he got unmasked. Just awful overall. Bad angle and a weak match to main event your big show.
  25. No real upsets as the top two seeds make it to the finals. Muta’s spinning back kick looked to really connect with Rick’s face. Steiners win and the crowd really liked it. Steiners both put over the U.S. forces in the Middle East.
