1. Dutch Mantel draws the name of The Nightstalker out of the hat as the challenger for the TV title.  They are joined by Tony Anthony who says that he told Tracey Smothers he won’t get that $5,000 bonus as there is no way that he can beat the Nightstalker.
2. Heavenly Bodies & Bobby Eaton (w/ Jim Cornette) vs Dixie Dy-No-Mite & Reno Riggins & Lynn Fields - Dutch Mantel says on commentary that since President Clinton has lifted the ban on gays in the military, he doesn’t want Cornette and the Bodies knocking themselves out to run down there and enlist!
3. INT: Rock & Roll Express - they’ve a number one contenders match against the Stud Stable later in today’s show
4. INT:  Bob Armstrong - says that since he’s been out of the country a lot of things have happened and he’s come back to total chaos.  Jim Cornette and the Heavenly Bodies have incorporated themselves, they’ve bought a new man in with Bobby Eaton and how can three men defend the tag team titles?  They’re looking at the rulebooks right now and are going to find a way to get out of this mess.  He notes that Paul Orndorff has been suspended indefinitely for his piledriver attack on referee Darryl Morris last week.  He has warned him plenty in the past and when he learns to obey the rules he can come back.  However the worst thing that happened whilst he was gone was that a regular insurance form came into their offices and the secretary signed it thinking it was just a medical request.  It turns out it was a bill from Kevin Sullivan’s psychiatrist, it wasn’t cheap and now they’re stuck with it and have got to pay it or his lawyers will take them to court.  He says that Sullivan has really been taking advantage and thinks that he has got the upper hand.  He then gets them to play a video from Sullivan where he says that Smoky Mountain have agreed to pay for his therapy and he’s gone out and got the greatest therapist of all time, Dr Michael Phillips.  Phillips says that they are going to take care of him and put him back together, but it’s going to take long sessions and his cranium will need massaging at least four or five times a day.  He then calls in Nurse Kratchett (who is Nancy Sullivan) and Sullivan warns Bob Armstrong, Brian Lee, Mongolian Stomper and Tracey Smothers that he’s never lost any game that he’s played and raises a drink to everyone in Smoky Mountain Wrestling.
5. Brian Lee vs Larry Santo
6. INT: Tim Horner, Ricky Morton
7. INT: Kevin Sullivan & The Nightstalker - Sullivan says that now Smoky Mountain Wrestling is paying for his therapy he is calm and serene, so Brian Lee and Tim Horner have nothing to worry about from him.  He says that he is worried about the Nightstalker though as he hears him moaning and screaming out the names of Horner and Lee at night and thinks that he is starting to have real serious problems.
8. The Nightstalker vs Tracey Smothers - Tony Anthony jumps Smothers from behind as he makes his way down the aisle to the ring, hitting him in the back with a chair, ramming him into the ring post and giving him a single arm DDT on the arena floor.  We return from a break to see Bob Armstrong with Smothers and Bob Caudle and he says that he is fining the Dirty White Boy $1,000 and that Smothers is in no condition to wrestle, but he is going to go to the Board of Directors and try and get that $5,000 for him.  Smothers tells him that he doesn’t want him to get anything for him, he’s going to earn $5,000 on his own, he didn’t come here to forfeit and then gets in the ring for the match.  When Smothers gains control, Anthony runs back out, gets his attention and in full view of him starts cutting up the confederate flag.  This distraction allows the Nightstalker to hit the powerbomb and become the new TV champion.  The Dirty White Boy rips up the flag and then gets in the ring to attack Smothers.  He handcuffs him to the ropes, the Nightstalker blocks the dressing room door so no-one can come to his aid and Anthony burns the confederate flag in full view of Smothers.  The Rock & Roll Express and Tim Horner eventually break through and carrying an extinguisher they put the fire out and see the Dirty White Boy off.
9. Tony Anthony (w/ Ron Wright) vs Ted Allen - Tracey Smothers comes out and has to be held back by Tim Horner, Dixie Dy-No-Mite and Reno Riggins.  The match appears to be a no contest as Allen just leaves whilst Smothers tries to get in the ring to get at the Dirty White Boy, but is again held back.
10. Number One Contender’s Match: Robert Fuller & Jimmy Golden (w/ Dutch Mantel) vs Rock & Roll Express - Jim Cornette provides commentary whilst the Heavenly Bodies and Bobby Eaton show up at ringside with chairs, drinks and popcorn to get a better view of the action.  Morton and Golden collide and Golden takes a fall outside of the ring right in front of where the Bodies are sat.  Eaton throws popcorn at him and he responds by snatching the bag off him and hitting him with it.  The popcorn goes everywhere and Eaton takes a pretty funny bump backwards off the chair.  Eaton picks up a drink, throws it at Golden and Morton schoolboys him for the pin.  Fun finish and the match itself was okay, nothing special or anything.  It was often hard to concentrate on the match with Cornette's commentary and the Bodies and their antics at ringside.
11. INT: Tony Anthony, Jim Cornette
12. INT: Robert Fuller & Jimmy Golden & Dutch Mantel - Fuller says that he’s tired of Jim Cornette.  The Heavenly Bodies are going to pay, the Rock & Roll Express are going to pay, Cornette is going to pay and he warns them all to be ready.

Bold matches are PWO recommended
