Aired December 18, 1993

Ash Central High School, Jefferson, NC

1. INT: Rock & Roll Express - they’re facing the Moondogs on today’s show and they can take the wins with the losses, but this is one team of Jim Cornette’s that they’re going to eliminate.
2. Tony Anthony (w/ Dirty White Girl) vs Paul Lee - Brian Lee and Tammy Fytch join them on commentary for this match and Fytch thinks that the White Girl should’ve joined Margie when she was doing Tammy’s Tips as she wears far too much make-up and looks like a clown.  It looks like someone has poured a can of paint over her face, in fact she needs more help than Margie.  After the match is over they both go down to the ring and Lee sprays something in the Dirty White Boy’s face.  He grabs the White Girl and Tammy starts putting lipstick all over her face and with the White Boy out of it, Tracey Smothers comes to her aid.  Dutch Mantel goes over to investigate and Smothers says that he doesn’t like to see a woman treated like that in any shape, form or fashion at all, before telling the White Boy that they are even and he doesn’t owe him nothing any more.  Anthony says that what they just did to the Dirty White Girl will not go unanswered.

4. INT:  Jim Cornette - says that they may have two ex-Tennessee football players at Christmas Chaos, but it could be five of these rednecks from the audience or ten guys from the soup kitchen, it wouldn’t make any difference as they can’t take the Heavenly Bodies.  Mike Furnas has never had a professional wrestling match, he doesn’t know what he’s doing in the ring, he’s going to be a liability and a detriment to his brother and for all intents and purposes Doug’s going to be in there on his own.  He may be the world’s strongest man with 18 legitimate world strength records, he may be the big University of Tennessee football star who has played pro football and he may have been this big star in Japan for the last five years, but one man cannot take the Heavenly Bodies.  Mike will be an anchor round his brother’s neck, lost in there asking “What do I do next?” and by the time it’s over they will wish they were back playing football.  It’s not going to be a homecoming for the Furnas’ at Christmas Chaos, it’s going to be a swansong.
5. Heavenly Bodies (w/ Jim Cornette) vs Chris Canyon & Michael Collins - the Bodies continue to attack the jobbers after the match and Mike Furnas wielding the football helmet runs out.  He gets in a few awkward looking shots on the Bodies, but is quickly outnumbered.  They rip off his University of Tennessee jersey and proceed to beat on him until Bobby Blaze and the Rock & Roll Express make the save.
6. INT: Doug Furnas - video interview.  He’s still in Japan and has just had the opportunity to view what happened a few weeks back.  He didn’t know that it went down like that as Mike said it was a little misunderstanding, and he thought he could handle it himself.  If it was 1-on-1, even 2-on-1 he probably could, but at Christmas Chaos wrestling is out the window, they’re fighting for blood.  He would rather have his brother in his corner than any five guys that Jim Cornette has ever managed and guarantees that they’re going to get the Heavenly Bodies and kick his ass too.
7. Down & Dirty w/ Jim Cornette - Dutch has some comments from The Bullet which he wants to play before hearing from Jim Cornette.  The Bullet says that it’s just a few days away until he gets a chance to prove to everyone that he can beat Dick Murdoch, can take Jim Cornette’s money and most of all, can take his hair.  He’s going to honour his contract and if he loses he’s going to take off the mask, and if he is Bob Armstrong, he’s history.  If he wins though, he’s going to have every Armstrong in the country and every fan of his in Knoxville to make sure that Cornette honours his end of the deal, even if that means they have to surround the ring and make sure he doesn’t leave until he has been shaved bald.  Back on Down & Dirty and Cornette doesn’t want to hear these “baldy” chants, but wants to hear some comments from a real man, Dick Murdoch, who he’s had to have his mother buy a house for in order to stop this carnage on Christmas night in Knoxville.  Murdoch is in a restaurant bar with a woman drinking another Coors Light.  It’s going to cost Mama Cornette a lot of money over the holidays as he’s flying in at great expense to come and whip one of those inbred, nothing happening, melon farming, Tennessee heroes in Bob Armstrong.  He knows Armstrong and his snotty nosed kids well.  There’s Brad, who whimpers every time he gets whipped and that other one who was in the Marines and fought in Desert Storm, the one who got all his medals by shooting unarmed Iraqi’s.  He’s gutless just like his old man!  He’s going to drink his beer, have a good time, watch the snow fall and get ready for the holiday season when he’ll be coming to Tennessee to whip Bob Armstrong like a step child.  Smoky Mountain Wrestling is probably the only promotion not under federal indictment at the moment as they run a legitimate company, but after Christmas, Mama Cornette, J.C. and himself are going to buy it, run it and make a lot of money!  We again return to Down & Dirty and both Dutch and Cornette are still trying to get the crowd to calm down, “Don’t make me turn him loose” warns Dutch as he is holding Cornette back from them.  Cornette says he agreed to put up $5,000 of his mother’s money against The Bullet at Christmas Chaos if The Bullet would put his mask up.  He bought in Dick Murdoch to beat him so that he will have to take off that mask and Bob Armstrong will then be banished forever, but Smoky Mountain Wrestling slipped something in the contract that he signed, contract tampering if you will, and added a clause that in Knoxville on Christmas night it will be his hair at stake.  After all the things he’s done to Bob Armstrong he knows that the final revenge and humiliation he could heap on him would be to beat Dick Murdoch and then shave his head in the middle of the ring.  He guarantees Bob Armstrong that he will do anything, will take any measure and will pay any price to see that Dick Murdoch beats him, reveals his identity and gets him banished from SMW for life.  Dutch is very funny here sucking up to Cornette as he has a tendency to do.
8. Tracey Smothers vs Larry Santo - Chris Candido joins them on commentary and says that he’s not one to cry and knows that Dutch would never fix anything, but is there a reason why his name has never been picked out the hat for the ‘Beat the Champ’ match?  Dutch asks Bob Caudle and he says that it’s luck of the draw, but Candido isn’t buying that.  Ever since he has come to Smoky Mountain he’s been involved in these ridiculous matches and it’s a conspiracy against him.  Dutch is sure that if his name stays in the hat long enough it will come out eventually, but Candido isn’t sure his name is even in the hat and those Smoky Mountain officials take it out every week after Dutch puts it in.
9. INT: Daryl Van Horn - highlights of Prince Kharis’ match against Tim Horner airs while Van Horn explains how his association with Kharis came to be.
10. Heavenly Bodies (w/ Jim Cornette) vs Rock & Roll Express (highlights, from Survivor Series)
11. The Moondogs (w/ Jim Cornette) vs Rock & Roll Express - Rex climbs to the top rope ready to splash Ricky but the Bruise Brothers run out with a chair, nail him in the back and he falls to the canvas.  The Rock & Rolls hit the double dropkick and then get the win.  After the match Cornette gets on the mic and says that they’re not going to stand for that and if the Bruise Brothers want some of the Moondogs come face them now.  The brothers don’t need a second invitation and it’s not long before they’re back out and the fight is on.  Cornette powders one of the twins and the three of them go to work on them with numerous weapon shots.  Cornette is getting in as many shots as the Dogs, while Spot clobbers Mark Curtis with a ‘Stop’ sign.  This stuff is already coming off as tired and boring, the beat down seemed to go too long and there was way too much involvement from Cornette.

Bold matches are PWO recommended
