World Wrestling Federation presents Wrestling Challenge
Date: 2/7/1993
From: Beaumont, TX
Matches:
1.) Owen Hart & Koko B. Ware defeated Dale Wolfe & Ken Johnson
2.) Damien Demento defeated Bobby Perez
3.) Virgil defeated Tommy Knight
4.) Headshrinkers defeated Jim Brunzell & Gary Jackson
5.) Razor Ramon defeated Rudy Gonzalez
Angle Developments/Notes:
1.) Special Report is hosted by Lord Alfred Hayes and he focuses on Giant Gonzalez. We see footage from the 1993 Royal Rumble where Gonzalez attacked Taker and knocked Taker out of the match. Gonzalez and Wippleman cut a promo with Wippleman saying that Taker ruined Kamala and now Taker must be ruined by Gonzalez. Gonzalez says “now it’s your funeral.”
2.) The complete match between Jim Duggan and Yokozuna from the previous day Superstars is shown in full.
3.) Lex Luger being introduced by Bobby Heenan at the 1993 Royal Rumble is shown.
4.) Backstage, Mr. Perfect cuts a promo about the reveal of Lex Luger. Perfect can’t believe Luger would challenge him to a match. Perfect unveils what Luger will look like when he steps in the ring with him and it’s a smaller guy behind a curtain. Perfect chops the guy to the floor and laughs about it.
Final Thoughts:
The enhancement stuff this week was fine, but nothing memorable. The angle advancement with Perfect and Luger was fine, but that promo was kind of weird with Perfect. A decent overall episode of Wrestling Challenge.
Thanks for reading.
