1. Well Dunn vs Jason West & Bobby Blaze
2. Recap of Tony Anthony and the Dirty White Girl stripping the clothes off Brian Lee from last week
3. INT: Tony Anthony & Dirty White Girl - they’re still carrying Brian Lee’s clothes with them, while the Dirty White Boy is sporting Lee’s shades that he also picked up from his last week.  At Bluegrass Brawl it’s a ‘Back Alley Brawl’, pinfalls don’t count and the only way they can beat them is by stripping him and the Dirty White Girl down.  Last week was an example of what they’ve been preparing for and what’s going to happen to Brian Lee and Tammy Fytch.  The White Girl promises Tammy that when she’s ripping her clothes off she’s going to rip a little hide too and it’s one night in her life that she won’t forget.  It’s all coming to a head at the Bluegrass Brawl.
4. Mike Furnas vs Mike Sampson - short but terrible.  Dutch is funny on commentary.
5. INT:  Bob Armstrong - the Rock & Roll Express have given him their word that if they lose the ‘Loser Leaves Town’ cage match, not only will they leave Smoky Mountain Wrestling, but they’ll take their boots off, put them in the middle of the ring and retire from wrestling forever.  They’re good men and he’ll take their word for it, but as far as the Heavenly Bodies are concerned he made them sign papers.  No amount of money, no masks, no appeals, nothing will bring them back and if they lose, they leave.  As for his match against Jim Cornette and his mystery partner, it could be anyone, but he’s tired of wrestling Cornette and on on 4/1 he intends to close his mouth once and for all and how fitting that on April Fool’s Day he’ll be the biggest fool of all.  It’s about time he gets finished once and for all and finish him is what he’s going to do in Pikeville.
6. INT: Jim Cornette - says everyone can now see that everybody is against Jim Cornette and the Heavenly Bodies all the way to the upper echelons of Smoky Mountain Wrestling.  He knew as soon as Bob Armstrong got back in the Commissioner’s chair he would issue all kinds of bias rulings and set up all kinds of crooked politics just to get rid of Jim Cornette and the Heavenly Bodies.  Well his fair haired boys the Rock & Roll Express aren’t going to be around for long and the Heavenly Bodies are not even going to come out here today, as since everybody is against them, they know they’re likely to be attacked before the match and no-one will do anything about it.  He’s got some ideas about the Rock & Roll Express and as they know, when he has ideas they generally come to fruition.  As far as Bob Armstrong goes, he wouldn’t be talking to big and so bad if he knew who his mystery partner was.  He’s got a lot of contacts both in professional wrestling and around the world and he could have dug up the meanest, baddest, toughest man from somewhere that he wouldn’t even know about as his mistake in the past has always been to let Bob Armstrong know what he is in for.  He’s going to be counting his blessings if he gets out of this match with all his teeth intact and his head on his shoulders, as he knows who’s coming but nobody else does, and they won’t until it’s too late.
7. The Thrillseekers music video - Billy Squier ‘Fast Times’
8. INT: The Thrillseekers - they say there’s a chance they could be in the tag team picture already, as should the Rock & Roll Express lose the ‘Loser Leaves Town’ match they will be fulfilling their contractual obligations.  It’s not the way they think it will go down, and it’s not the way they want to do it, as they want to earn their shots in Smoky Mountain Wrestling on their own merits.  Jericho says that the Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson are big influences on them and they know they’re not going to lose at Bluegrass Brawl, but even if they do that’s not how they want to get their title shots, they want to earn them the old fashioned way, the Canadian way.
9. Down & Dirty w/ Rock & Roll Express - Dutch says that come the Bluegrass Brawl on 4/1 the world is watching, not only fans in Smoky Mountain Wrestling, but fans across the world.  Before he talks to today’s guest he wants everyone to hear comments from some big time promoters across the wrestling world and also Jim Cornette and the Heavenly Bodies.  First of all it’s Eddie Marlin, and in a taped interview he says whichever team loses the ‘Loser Leaves Town’ match is more than welcome to join them in the USWA.  Then it’s a Vince McMahon taped interview, who says the World Wrestling Federation officials are heading to the Bluegrass Brawl after Wrestlemania.  In the main event it’s the Heavenly Bodies against the Rock & Roll Express for the SMW tag team titles inside a cage and on top of that, the loser must leave the Smoky Mountain region.  Smoky Mountain’s loss is going to be the World Wrestling Federation’s gain as they would welcome either team into the WWF, they would even welcome Jim Cornette himself! Surreal seeing Vince McMahon on SMW TV, although not sure why anyone would take a gig in the USWA over the WWF!  Vince completely blows Marlin away when it comes to personality, charisma and aura here.  From there we hear from Jim Cornette & Heavenly Bodies.  Cornette informs everyone that the Bodies won’t be seen live on television today for the simple reason that with the Rock & Rolls being the noted back jumpers and back fighters  that they are, they’re afraid they might try to do something dastardly and evil before the Bluegrass Brawl to try and get an advantage.  Del Ray says that the Rock & Rolls aren’t family so they are not as tight as he and his cousin are, and they’ve got one heck of a game plan waiting for them.  Prichard says talking of family they had a nice conversation with Jim Cornette’s mother and they promised her that they won’t let him down, they won’t let her down and they have a special bonus heading their way when they defeat the Rock & Roll Express in Pikeville.  They’re the SMW tag team champions and the greatest tag team that ever came down the pipe.  The entire wrestling world is asking the question as to whether the Heavenly Bodies can finally put an end to the Rock & Roll Express, well the answer is “Yes,” and Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson will take off their boots like the say they would and we’ll walk out the champions that we are.  Cornette says that all the marbles are on the line in the ‘Loser Leaves Town’ match and while they can go anywhere, the Rock & Roll Express say they’ll never wrestle again if they can’t be in Smoky Mountain Wrestling.  April 1st will mark the end of ten years of his life, ten years of hatred, ten years of frustration, ten years that he’s chased them across the country trying to put an end to them and finally it’s going to happen, as they will be out of SMW and out of professional wrestling when they lose the match inside the cage at the Bluegrass Brawl.  Back on Down & Dirty and Dutch is joined by the Rock & Roll Express.  Ricky Morton says that he’s had so much on his mind these past few weeks that he’s hardly been able to sleep, so last night wrote a letter to explain how he feels and would like to read it to everyone.  When he first came to Smoky Mountain Wrestling and reunited it seemed like that was all he ever wanted.  He’s made mistakes in wrestling and in life itself and Robert could’ve said no and told him to get lost but he didn’t, and for that he’s grateful.  When he walked back through that curtain with Robert he knew his place, but now they’re faced with the toughest match they’ve ever had and never has more been at stake.  At the Bluegrass Brawl, inside a cage, the tag team titles are on the line, but most importantly, the losers have to leave Smoky Mountain Wrestling.  He doesn’t know whether they will win or not, but if they do lose he would like to thank the fans for all the great times and support that they’ve given them and for making his time in SMW happy.  He tells Gibson that he loves him like a brother and if they do lose his career is over, not only will he leave SMW, but he’ll never put on another pair of wrestling boots again.  This feud has taken a lot out of them for the past ten years, from Texas to New York and everywhere in between, but now it’s come to a point where one of them is going to leave in a blaze of glory.  He thinks that Robert and he have one good one left in them, but if he doesn’t get a chance to say goodbye, he’d like to say “Thank you and God bless.”  Gibson says that he knows they have one more good one left in them and the two of them hug.  Awesome segment and Morton was exceptional here, getting all emotional and fighting back the tears as he was reading his letter.  Gibson had the one line and nearly butchered that!
10. Recap of the Chris Candido vs Tracey Smothers Ladder match from last week
11. INT:  Tracey Smothers - he thinks he can speak for himself, all the fans in Dungannon and the millions of people at home when he says he hopes the Rock & Roll Express run the Heavenly Bodies out of here.  Chris Candido and himself have had these Ladder matches all over the area, they’ve been some of the most brutal matches he’s had in his life, but one night he wins, the next Candido does, it’s back and forth but it’s all coming to a head at the Buegrass Brawl. He hasn’t forgotten what he did to him at Christmas Chaos and this is his chance for revenge.
12. INT: Daryl Van Horn - he told everyone that Prince Kharis had finally gotten signed to a SMW Heavyweight title match and he’s sure it will tickle Bob Caudle’s prostate to know the man he will be facing will be the Dirty White Boy.  Not only will this put the gold around Prince Kharis’ waist, but it will give him the opportunity to get a measure of revenge against him for what he did at Thanksgiving Thunder when he stepped in the ring to protect Tim Horner.  They’ve added an opium den to the Prince’s chamber and have been watching snuff films all week to get him mentally prepared for this title match in April against the White Boy.
13. Tony Anthony (w/ Dirty White Girl) vs Killer Kyle - Kyle with an elbow to the Dirty White Boy and he falls backwards into Mark Curtis KO’ing him.  Brian Lee and Tammy Fytch come out and Lee gets up on the apron and holds Anthony ready for Kyle to nail him but the White Boy moves and Kyle clobbers Lee instead.  He throws Kyle over the top rope to the floor, catapults Lee into the ring, hits him with the Bucksnort Blaster and Curtis comes round to see the White Boy covering someone and counts the three thinking its Kyle he’s covering.  Fytch goes to remonstrate at Curtis but the Dirty White Girl grabs her ankle and she falls down.  The White Girl gets in the ring and Dutch thinks we’re going to get a pre-cursor to the Bluegrass Brawl as Fytch crawls backwards to the corner, but before the White Girl can get her hands on her Chris Candido runs out and ushers her to the back.
14. Rock & Roll Express vs The Infernos - Jim Cornette joins them on commentary and thinks that something good is going to happen to the Rock & Roll Express today.  After the match the Rock & Rolls are jumped by Brian Lee and Chris Candido (with Tammy Fytch cheering them on), while Caudle says that this has Cornette’s mark all over it.  He denies that he would do anything like that.  No way would he like to see them hurt before Bluegrass Brawl, no way!  The Rock & Rolls get the advantage and put a double Figure Four on Lee and Candido, while Cornette is panicking saying this isn’t working out like he planned, he means like he thought!  Fytch ends up nailing Gibson in the head with the purse and Candido uses it on Morton to free Primetime.  The heels beat on them with the purse and the show goes off the air with the beat down still in progress and the Rock & Rolls down and out on the canvas.

Bold matches are PWO recommended
