[Kronos Krueger interfered against Carl Stryker.]

The Freedom Fighters showed up at ringside. At an opportune moment, Kronos nailed Carl Stryker in the head with one of the tag titles. The referee saw it and threw out the match. The Germans and South Africans proceeded to deliver a 4-on-2 beating to the Midnights only to have Soul Train charge the ring for the save.

Commissioner Gonzalez came out and said tonight has confirmed his decision for Fall Brawl. There will be a 4v4 match, but not a regular match. This much bad blood calls for a cage match. And since you can't fit eight men in a normal cage, it will be a double ring with a giant cage enclosing both rings. Participants will enter one at a time and, once everyone has entered, they will fight until someone quits! Gonzalez dubs this WAR GAMES.

[TV Title Tournament Quarterfinals]:
Joachim Farkas made Stroker Ace submit to the Hungarian Claw in 0:04:51.
Rating: -*

Farkas ran wild in this brawl. After getting his hand raised in victory, The Hungarian Wolfman went after Stroker for more punishment, but Randy "The Ram" Robinson hit the ring to send Farkas running his tail between his legs.

Robinson joined Frank Gresham at the interview set and said he wants to face The Hungarian Wolfman at Fall Brawl. He's willing to put the World Heavyweight Title on the line, if a maniac like Farkas cares about championships.

"Million Dollar" Stan Trump, flanked by "The Tongan Terror" Isaeli Kaelo, joined Gresham and Robinson. Robinson asked if Trump is behind Farkas' behavior. Trump replied a wild animal is a potent weapon that you merely need to steer in the right direction. Robinson promises Million Dollar Stan their business isn't finished yet.

Robinson passes Bruiser Barton who wants to know why Kaelo saved Scott Free. Trump replies that every man has a price, but sometimes that price involves goods or services rather than a cash transaction. Free wanted protection and Trump had a "prime asset" who could provide such a service. Barton lays out a challenge to Kaelo to face him one on one at Fall Brawl, then adds the warning that if Trump gets involved in the match no bodyguard can save him.

Jimmy Blast pinned Buck Hamato with the Gourdbuster in 0:07:31.

Rating: DUD

Frank Gresham interviews "Strongman" Rick Samson. Samson has a bye in the TV Title Tournament Semifinals due to the Massimo-Richter quarterfinals ending in a double countout. Samson says he didn't earn that bye so taking the week off would be unfair to whoever his opponent is in the finals. He wants a match tonight. Gresham asks for a prediction about who his opponent will be: Salmanca or Farkas? Samson says he respects Salmanca and thinks the two of them would have a very good match, no matter who won. But Farkas is a lunatic, and that makes him dangerous.

Jake Blackheart made Chad Too Badd submit to the Blackout in 0:11:08.
Rating: * 1/2

After the match, Frank Gresham waved Blackheart over to the interview set and informed him there were some guys who wanted a word. Out came Angus Clarke and Duncan Clarke aka AC-DC. Angus says not only are they the best two-man AC/DC cover band in Australian, they've also done a bit of tag team wrestling in the land down under. They challenge Blackheart to find a partner and face them at Fall Brawl. Blackheart calls them a couple of kangaroo-lovers, says their music is garbage, and that he's sure he can find someone else who agrees.

Rick Samson made J.C. Magnum submit to the Body Vice in 0:05:15.
