Frank Gresham interviewed Bruiser Barton. Barton says his business with Kaelo wasn't finished at Fall Brawl. The two of them can't be contained by wrestling rings or rules. He wants a Street Fight at Starrcade so there will be no question who is the better, tougher man.
Jerry Livingston made Everette Knight submit to the Brass Ring in 0:04:10.
Rating: 1/2*
Livingston is one of several new wrestlers debuting at this TV taping. Don't read anything into his finisher name; it's just a reference to him hailing from Brasstown, NC.
Porkchop Jones pinned Frederic Clay with the Special Delivery in 0:03:50.
Rating: -*
Frank Gresham interviewed WCWF World Champion Randy "The Ram" Robinson. Robinson says he got into the ring with someone more animal than human at Fall Brawl. Anyone who isn't afraid to get in the ring with someone like that is a fool. But he faced that fear, looked the beast in the eyes, and established dominance. That's why he is still champion. He has been and will continue to be a fighting champion. He has three more title defenses this year: two MSG shows and Starrcade. He promises to finish the year as champion, no matter who he faces in those matches.

Isileli Kaelo pinned Ignacio Mercer with the Kick of Fear in 0:01:08.
Rating: -1/4*
"Million Dollar" Stan Trump was at ringside for this match, not that The Tongan Terror needed much direction. After the match, Frank Gresham asked about Bruiser Barton's challenge last week. Trump said Kaelo accepts the challenge and will leave Barton the same way Jake Blackheart left Barton at last year's Starrcade: defeated and laying in a pool of his own blood!
The Jolly Green Giant pinned Joachim Farkas with the Giant Bomb in 0:04:46.
Rating: -* 3/4
Having failed to bring down The Ram, The Hungarian Wolfman had a chance at even larger prey. His animalistic attacks only angered the Giant and resulted in Farkas getting a pretty good thrashing.
Rick Samson pinned Eddie Fargo with the Body Crush in 0:06:11.

Brett Hale cut a patriotic pre-match promo, praising the Team USA for dominating the Summer Olympics last month. Between that and victory at Fall Brawl against the Germans and South Africans, Hale wants win another victory for America against one of her greatest foes.
The Ayatollah made Brett Hale submit to the Camel Clutch in 0:05:47.
Rating: * 3/4
Hale talked a good talk and fought a good fight, but it's The Ayatollah. His Reign of Terror may be over, but that's the only loss he's suffered this year. After the match, The Ayatollah got the mic and said "Iran boycott Olympics so USA medals mean nothing. Iran still number one!"

General Winter pinned Aidan Taylor with the Nuclear Winter in 0:01:27.
Rating: -1/2*
After the quick squash, Winter tried to cut an anti-American promo only to be interrupted by "Theme From The A-Team." "The One Man Army" John Murdoch made his return from injury, charging the ring and sending the General into a hasty retreat. Murdoch was injured earlier this year by Winter.
Jimmy Blast pinned Ford Prefect with the Gourdbuster in 0:04:14.
Rating: * 3/4
Blast cut a promo after his match. He gave credit to Eddie Fargo for being the wiley veteran he is, but when the match ended it wasn't Fargo who had his hand raised in victory. Blast is a past and future champion.
Stan Trump made Andrew Davis submit to the Million Dollar Dream in 0:04:38.
Rating: * 1/4
Trump offered his inexperienced opponent $50 to lay down for a pinfall loss or $100 to walk away for a countout loss. "You're not worth a penny more." Davis refused and put up some basic offense before Trump hit a low blow and locked on his finisher. After the quick submission, Trump threw Davis to the mat and literally walked over him on the way out of the ring just to be a jerk.
The Supernauts (Dreadnaut and Huguenaut) defeated
The Executioners (Skull and Crossbones) when Dreadnaut pinned Skull with the Broadside in 0:04:33.
Rating: -3/4*
After the match, The Supernauts cut a promo. They're undefeated and will face any team who thinks they can change that. The tag titles will be around their waists as soon as they get their shot.
Jake Blackheart and Rick Samson battled to a draw in 0:10:00.
