Talk about it here.

James Beard has a few words for Billy Joe Travis when Dutch Mantell and a guy who appears to be a masked Kane (billed as Doomsday) interrupt. Dutch introduces El Satanico Diablo as the latest member of Team ICON, and that turns out to be Travis! Dutch points out how they worked through the contact loopholes to get him back in. Brian Christopher comes out to take this news about how you'd expect. The numbers quickly catch up and Travis throws some nasty punches at Christopher before Lawler makes the save.

Team ICON is similar to the top heel trio from 1994 in WWC. Just switch out Travis for Eddie Gilbert and keep Dutch and Doomsday (albeit unmasked). It was an awesome group.

“That’s got to be Kane!”

 

Travis joins Team ICON. Those punches were wicked. Christopher was getting choked out too while getting mashed in the face.

Who is Doomsday, that dude was huge? I liked this as a way to get BJT back in the fold officially and have another great brawl with Christopher. Really digging this feud.

Pretty sure the first brawl between the two was the week before, judging by James Beard acting like Travis is gone for good and Christopher wearing different tights. James doesn't look all that professional in his Vince McMahon workout pants. Dutch uses a loophole to bring Travis back into the USWA and that kickstarts a hell of a studio brawl involving Dutch, Doomsday, Travis, Christopher, and Lawler.
