USWA Championship Wrestling #2: 1/12/1985
taped from Dallas, TX
Bob Armstrong is in the middle of the ring as the show opens. He mentions that one of Gary Hart's men injured his son Brad on Monday Night. Well he's pretty pissed off about this and he wants his pound of flesh right now. He tells USWA President Eddie Marlin that he isn't leaving this ring until he gets a match with one of Gary Hart's wrestlers. The show goes to commercials as they try to sort things out.
The show comes back and they show that during the break that several wrestlers tried to talk Armstrong out of the ring. Armstrong tossed Mike Jackson, Paul Garner, Jim Jeffers and Mike Simone out of the ring. Finally Eddie Marlin comes down to the ring. He tells Armstrong that he can have a match with Checkmate on next week's show. Armstrong finds this agreeable and leaves the ring.
Bob Roop pins Mac Jeffers at 1:42 with the Shoulderbreaker
Michael Hayes, Buddy Roberts and Terry Gordy are backstage with Bob Caudle. Michael Hayes wants the Rock N Roll Express to enjoy those World Tag Team Title belts because the Freebirds aren't going to lose to them again. The Rock N Rolls might be a hit with the teenie bopper crowd but the Freebirds get all of the real ladies. The Freebirds are the sole dominate force in tag team wrestling and they're going to finally show everyone by beating Robert Gibson and Ricky Morton.
Manny Fernandez pins the Golden Terror at 2:11 with the Flying Burrito
Manny Fernandez stops at the announce table. He hasn't heard a peep out of Terry Funk since their little encounter last week. He wants to know if Funk is afraid of him. Funk steps onto the stage and says he isn't afraid of any man. He just doesn't think Fernandez is a top contender for his belt. He doesn't see the point of wrestling a wrestler that he can't put the belt on the line against. Funk goes to leave when Fernandez grabs his arm. Fernandez has a proposition for Funk. Give him 10 minutes. If he can last 10 minutes with Funk, then he thinks he should get a title shot. Funk thinks about it for a moment and agrees. Next week, if Fernandez can go 10 minutes with him then he can have a title shot.
The Great Kabuki pinned George South at 4:55 with a side kick
Gary Hart is backstage with Bob Caudle. He doesn't know why Bob Armstrong is so bent out of shape over what happened on Monday. That's just part of business. Maybe he shouldn't let his boys in the ring with his hired killers. No matter, Bob Armstrong is taking on Checkmate next week. He hopes that Armstrong has his insurance premiums paid up because Checkmate is going to put a beating on him like he's never seen before.
USWA World Tag Team Champions Rock N Roll Express d. Stoney Burke and Joe Lightfoot at 3:07 when Morton pinned Burke after the Double Dropkick
Bill Watts has a sit down interview with Ted Dibiase. Dibiase says he was very disappointed to come so close to winning the World Title and coming up short. He wants a rematch down the line but he thinks jumping right in will be a mistake. He wants to work on his game and improve. When the time is right, he will stand up and demand his rematch with Terry Funk.
Main Event:
Junkyard Dog and Jeff Jarrett d. The Stud Stable at 18:27 by DQ when Brian Lee attacked the referee
Robert Fuller nails the Junkyard Dog with the loaded boot and then manages to get Jeff Jarrett with the boot. Robert Fuller, Jimmy Golden and Brian Lee put the boots to Junkyard Dog and Jeff Jarrett until Koko B. Ware, George South, Pistol Pez Whatley and the Fantastics hit the ring. JYD and Jarrett struggle to their feet as the show fades to black.
Next week:
Terry Funk vs. Manny Fernandez. If Fernandez manages to survive 10 minutes of beats Funk, he gets a shot at the World Title.
Bob Armstrong vs. Checkmate.
