12 – CIVIL WAR I
Live from the Selland Arena, Fresno, CA!
The Selland Arena was packed for the first true display of Tag Team Action from the LWF! Speculation was running fast & furious as to who would be crowned the first ever WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!
TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT ROUND ONE
Nikolai Volkoff & The Iron Sheik d. FLYIN’ HIGH via submission when Iron Sheik locked Koko B. Ware in the CAMEL CLUTCH.
MILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION d. MIDNIGHT EXPRESS via submission when Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase locked Bobby Eaton in the MILLION DOLLAR DREAM.
ROAD WARRIORS d. King Kong Bundy and King Harley Race via pinfall when Road Warrior Animal covered King Harley Race after the DOOMSDAY DEVICE.
KILLER BEES d. DREAM TEAM via submission when “Jumping” Jim Brunzell trapped Greg “The Hammer” Valentine in a sleeper hold.
TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT SEMI-FINALS
Nikolai Volkoff & The Iron Sheik d. MILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION via DQ when Ted Dibiase got frustrated and slammed the Iron Sheik to the concrete floor despite the referee’s warning. After the DQ, King Harley Race ran out and started brawling with DiBiase as payback for injuring him months ago and it took several minutes to seperate them.
ROAD WARRIORS d. KILLER BEES via pinfall when Road Warrior Hawk hit “Jumping” Jim Brunzell with a double clothesline.
WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
Nikolai Volkoff & The Iron Sheik d. ROAD WARRIORS via submission when Iron Sheik made Road Warrior Hawk submit with the CAMEL CLUTCH! This now mean that The Iron Sheik must pull Double Duty and defend both the HEAVYWEIGHT and TAG TEAM Championships! This is the first ever time we’ve had a dual champion and it’s quite sure it’ll be sometime before it happens again!
