Angle Developments/Notes:
1. Big Bossman cut a pre-tape promo saying that he loves to hurt people and loves his job. He doesn’t see any reason to stop now.
2. A Mr. Perfect vignette airs once again. This week, he was playing some chess, which he won of course.
3. Bobby Heenan reveals that Terry Taylor is no longer going by his name. Instead, Taylor will be known as the Red Rooster! Taylor appears to be perfectly fine with that. Heenan cut a pre-tape promo saying that he is going to groom Taylor into a machine. He will past this test.
4. Brother Love’s guest this week is Jim Duggan. Love questions why Duggan doesn’t show love for his country. Here comes Dino Bravo and Frenchy Martin to get involved with the promo time. Duggan says he will fight back unlike the weights that Bravo lifts. Bravo says that Duggan and the USA both stink! Duggan tells Bravo to “love it or leave it!” Duggan threatens Bravo and says he will show him the border. Bravo is held back by Martin and Duggan gets a USA chant going.
Final Thoughts:
A weak show this week as there wasn’t a big name involved on anything. This was the last show of the taping anyway, and those are usually really weak. Bossman is looking more and more like a bad ass heel and I’m enjoying his stuff. The Brother Love Show advanced a feud that I don’t find interesting at all.
Thanks for reading.
