109 – WRESTLING CHALLENGE
Live from Golden State Studios, Burbank, CA!
The show opens with the crowd cheering Rockin’ Robin who will face newcomer Princess Victoria.
MATCH #1
Rockin’ Robin d. Princess Victoria via pinfall after Robin caught Victoria in a BULLDOG as she jumped from the top rope – * – Nice, and much needed, win for Rockin’ Robin.
ROCKIN’ ROBIN: Jimmy Hart! I’ve been hearing you say that your ladies, Judy Martin and Leilani Kai, are the future of Women’s Wrestling in Golden State Wrestling. I got news for you, I’ll step into the ring with either one of them at any time! Bring it on!
MATCH #2
Adrian Adonis d. Mister X via submission with GOODNIGHT IRENE – SQUASH – Adonis pics up a quick victory over Mister X.
ADRIAN ADONIS: I am the baddest man in GOLDEN STATE WRESTLING and if you think you’ve seen all I have to offer, you ain’t seen nothing yet!
MATCH #3
MIDNIGHT EXPRESS d. Kenny Jay & Jim Milliman via pinfall when Eaton covers Jay after VEG-O-MATIC – SQUASH – Lane and Eaton steamroll Jay and Milliman in less than a minute.
CORNETTE: Bulldogs, we’re ready to send you packing. And just to make sure it’s decisive, let’s do it two out of three falls!
“Hacksaw” Jim Duggan is out next and he carries with him the briefcase he got from Ted DiBiase. He sets it in the corner, eyeing it warily.
MATCH #4
“Hacksaw” Jim Duggan d. Nacho Barerra via pinfall after a FLYING SPEAR – SQUASH – Newcomer Nacho Barrera doesn’t put up much of a fight against “Hacksaw.”
As Duggan gets his hand raised in victory, Dibiase and Virgil make their way to ringside.
TED DIBIASE: Well, Duggan. You’ve had some time to think about it. You need a job. I need an enforcer.
“HACKSAW” JIM DUGGAN: Mr. DiBiase, this case has gone with me everywhere I’ve gone since you gave it to me. I’ve thought about it a lot and I tell you this is more money than I’ve ever seen in my live.
DiBiase laughs loudly.
“HACKSAW” JIM DUGAN: And, after thinking about it long and hard, I’ve come to the conclusion that good old “Hacksaw” could really use this money.
The crowd jeers loudly.
“HACKSAW” JIM DUGGAN: But I think I can use this briefcase even more.
Duggan rears back with the briefcase and smashed DiBiase on the head with it! The case bursts open and $100 bills fly everywhere! Virgil scrambles to help DiBiase and prevent the bills from floating toward the studio audience! Duggan swings his 2×4 wildly as the crowd is on their feet!
It takes several minutes for DiBiase to get to his feet. He and Virgil suffer the humiliation of collecting the spilled bills while the crowd lets them have it. DiBiase turns to the camera before leaving.
DIBIASE: Duggan! You just made the biggest mistake of your life!
MATCH #5
Mr. Perfect d. George South via submission with a sleeper – * – Mr. Perfect made short work of George South.
MR. PERFECT: Snuka! You’re so far in over your head with this Best of Seven series. Now you want a lumberjack match? You got it and you’d better prepare to be chopped down just like a tree.

GSW TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT – ROUND TWO
George “The Animal” Steele d. One Man Gang via DQ when Albano slipped George Steele a foreign object behind the ref’s back and Gang grabbed it and smashed Steele with it in view of the ref – ** – Oliver Humperdink and One Man Gang try to protest that it was Albano’s foreign object but the ref is having none of it.
ALBANO: When you’re like me with I.Q. of 901.73, you’re outthinking everyone at every step! I laid a trap and the One Man Gang took the bait! Now my man George here is on his way to the semi-finals! Then it’s just a leap to the finals and the title will be around his waist!
Albano continues his diatribe as One Man Gang argues with the ref! Out of nowhere, Adrian Adonis clobbers One Man Gang from behind, shoving him into Humperdink, knocking them both to the floor. Adonis wails away on Gang as the credits begin to roll!
Goodnight, fans!
Great card… Loved the Duggan-DiBiase segment!
