Jesse Ventura: What a match styles they went toe to toe for 20 minutes and couldn't be seperated and three of those men will be in the ring at Fall Brawl for the Global Television Title!
Joey Styles: That could possibly be the sleeper match of the show Jesse but it doesn't look like the feud between The Great Muta and The Revolution is over and we now know Ricky Steamboat is on Muta's side!
'Royalty' strikes up to a huge ovation from the Philly and the camera swings round to see Jerry Lawler walking down the ramp. King is wearing a white suit with pale blue shirt. As he gets to the ring he takes the mic from the ring announcer!
Jerry Lawler: Wow so this is Pro Wrestling USA. Over the past few weeks Ric Flair has been running round this place laying people out. The Hollywood Blondes have been insulting the lead announcer and running their mouths non-stop. Well tonight it all stops.. Tonight I have been put in charge as the new commisioner. Ric Flair you wan't to screw with me just try it, same with the Hollywood Blondes or anyone else for that matter

'Space Odyssey 2001' hits the arena and we see Ric Flair accompanied by Mr Perfect walk down the aisle. Both men are wearing expensive suits and look as cocky as ever. Flair walks up the ringsteps as Mr Perfect walks around the otherside of the ring and grabs the mic. Perfect jumps up onto the apron and steps through the ropes before gracefully handing Flair the mic
Ric Flair: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania... tonight you're not going to get to see me wrestle. WHOOO... That's because I am the greatest wrestler alive today I have had Randy Savage laid out because when you have the money you have the power. Even before that I laid out your hero Terry Funk and he hasn't been back since. So now all you people saw him earlier, Jerry Lawler come out here and hand me that Global Heavyweight Title!
Flair and Perfect turn to the entrance way and await Jerry Lawler but instead of Lawler's music hitting 'Pomp and Circumstance' blares out over the PA and to a huge response and he sprints to the ring. Flair backs up and Mr Perfect goes in for the kill. Savage blasts away with rights and lefts staggering Perfect backwards. Flair sneaks up behind Savage though as he corners Perfect and Flair hits a nasty low blow!
Flair goes to work on the ribs of Savage tearing off his shirt. Underneath there are bandages wrapped round the midsection of Savage from being powerbombed on the concrete. Flair starts hammering away on the midsection of Savage. Perfect composes himself straightening his tie and grabs a chair from outside the ring and handing it to Flair...
Flair draws back the chair but from out of nowher Terry Funk hits the ring. Flair re-adjusts to hit Funk but Funk dodges and clobbers Perfect with a clothesline. Flair resets himself to hit Funk but Funk blocks the chair shot taking hold of the chair... Before he can hit Flair though, Flair hauls ass out the ring.

Jesse Ventura: Things are turning ugly in the Dangerous Alliance and I don't think Paul.E is going to be able to keep a lid on it much longer.
Joey Styles: Speaking of keeping a lid on things. PW USA has had to take the lid off the rules and throw them out the window for this next match. Cactus Jack and Jake Roberts battled to a Double DQ last week and now the match has been signed. NO DQ's and Falls Count Anywhere in the Civic Center!

Jake Roberts leaves the ring and heads off down the aisle at speed. Roberts has the victory, and isn't hanging around for Cactus Jack to look for revenge.
Joey Styles: Jake Roberts just stole this match with a handful of tights and he will face Terry Funk next week here on PWTV and the winner getting a spot in the Global Heavyweight Title Tournament at Fall Brawl!
Jesse Ventura: Two masters of psychology there Styles! Roberts won't be able to put one past Funk because he knows every trick in the book. Funk invented most of them himself... It should be a barn burner to say the least!
Joey Styles: Well from Jesse Ventura, I'm Joey Styles we'll see you next week!
