4.)Brutus Beefcake defeated Mike Williams
5.)Dusty Rhodes fought Bob Salza to a no contest
6.)The Barbarian defeated Mark Thomas

Angle Developments/Notes:
1.It looks like DiBiase will finally be working with the Big Bossman since Bossman turned on DiBiase prior to Mania and the attack at the event. I can get interested in that feud.

2.Since the Ultimate Warrior won the WWF World Championship at WrestleMania VI, he decided to vacate the WWF Intercontinental Championship. Jack Tunney announces that the Warrior has given up the championship and a tournament will be held to determine a new champion. The men involved in the tournament will be announced next week.

3.We see footage from Mania where Earthquake attacked Jim Duggan after his match with Dino Bravo. Duggan is out of action with bruised ribs, at least that is what McMahon tells us.

4.File this under one of the oddest things I’ve seen. WWF World Champion Ultimate Warrior runs out to the ring and into the crowd to showoff his new championship and that’s it for him.

5.The Rockers have their sights set on the Orient Express due to what happened at Mania.

6.It’s tome for the Brother Love Show. This week Brother Love is joined by the Honkytonk Man and Greg Valentine. Honky talks about the thrill it was to record in front of the crowd in Toronto. He isn’t happy about Butch and Luke spoiling their moment. Greg Valentine says they are going to destroy Butch and Luke just like they destroyed their guitars.

7.Rick Rude and Bobby Heenan are back in the gym talking about how Rude is going to beat Warrior again the championship. Rude is benching 325lbs and says Warrior will fall and he will beat Warrior once again.

8.Randy Savage attacks Dusty Rhodes before his squash match. Savage hits Rhodes with his purse and Sapphire is checking on Rhodes when Sherri Martel hits her with a shoe! Savage comes off the top and hits an elbow drop a couple of times! Sherri has a hold of Sherri when Savage gets a microphone and says she is going to kiss his feet. Sherri tries to get her to do it but Dusty Rhodes returns to the ring and sends Savage and Sherri out of the ring. Rhodes is crying that Sapphire has been attacked.

9.Hulk Hogan cut a promo on Earthquake as they will be working the house shows. Hogan considered Quake’s attack nothing but a tremor.

Final Thoughts:
An enjoyable show this go around for Superstars. The attack by Savage and Sherri was nicely done and the emotion shown by Dusty was a good touch. The squashes weren’t all that noteworthy but the angle advancements were good and that’s all that usually matters on this show.

Thanks for reading.
