2. Bob Orton Jr. (w/ Gary Hart) vs Bob Emory - Hart joins Jim Ross on commentary again.  Ross tells him he has received a message from security and that there is an emergency in the back and he needs to go to the locker room.  Not long later Hart returns to ringside being attacked by a bullrope wielding Dick Murdoch.  Orton leaves the ring to come to his manager’s rescue before they both flee.

7. INT: Sting - is out to answer the Iron Sheik’s Persian Club challenge.  Rip Morgan is accompanying the Sheik who demonstrates the clubs and Sting is about to follow suit but says how he needs to see how it is done again.  Sheik demonstrates it again for a second time, then it happens again, so Sheik does it for a third time.  Sting then says that Sheik is the best at swinging the clubs but he is the better wrestler and just walks off.
