Vince McMahon interviews Bam-Bam Bigelow about his WWF Intercontinental title shot next week against Marty Jannetty. Well, they don’t really promote the match, but rather the feud between Luna Vachon and Sherri Martel as apparently both women will be at ringside for the contest.

End of show

My Take:
Perfect/Doink match was good for what it was intended to be. Adam Bomb has the look and appears to be decent in the ring so that could possibly mean good things for him. Hogan didn’t really do the job in hyping up Yokozuna and just promoted himself. Ramon looks to be getting back into a feud with Bret Hart after their segment.
