Heat.

Heat.

This is Will Monsoon and your host Bobby

the Brave. Hello everyone and welcome

once again to Prime Time Wrestling. Get

ready for some real action as only the

superstars of the World Wrestling

Federation can deliver. And by we have

some most unusual individuals on this

week. We're dealing with adorable Adrien

Adonis, George the Animal Steel. Talk

about two more unorthodox people than

that.

Well, they're off the wall. I'll say

that.

Well, one's out of the closet and the

other one is definitely

should be underground.

Definitely doesn't have both ores in the

water for sure. And some of the super

heavyweights joining us, your protege,

one of your proteges, King Kong Bundy.

King Kong Bundy almost 480 pounds.

Our feature match again. He's going to

be tested to the limit with Mr. USA Tony

Atlas. No question in my mind about

that. Tony Atlas is used to working out

in the gym. He's not used to working out

with a man of this size.

Well, Tony Atlas, I'm sure, will try to

press slam anybody that he can get his

hands on, including King Kong Bundy. Let

me ask you something. A lot of fans are

asking me,

the $15,000 slam thing that John Stud

has going for him, does that apply to

Bundy as well?

Well, I uh

You're very ambiguous about your answer.

I didn't Let me finish being ambiguous.

Do you mind? Go ahead. Um, first of all,

Bundy doesn't care to slam studs, so you

can forget the 15 G's right there.

Anybody else wants to try? Fine. Bundy

doesn't care to do it. I'm saying, is

the 15 grand available if someone should

slam King Kong Bundy?

Oh, I thought you meant a Bundy slam

stud. Uh, no, it isn't. No, it isn't

No, definitely not. You just for John

stud.

You don't want to put any of that kind

of money up. Right now, we're going to

go down to ringside for our opening

attraction. George the Animal Steel

taking on the adorable Adrien Adonis.

Let's go.

[Applause]

Ladies and gentlemen, this will be a

onefall match.

Introducing first from New York City,

weighing 290 lbs, the adorable Adrien

Adonis.

His opponent now about to enter the ring

area from Detroit, Michigan, weighing

276 pounds, George the Animo Steel

Monsoon. I don't even like to be at

ringside when Steel wrestles.

Why is that

Well, you don't know if he's going to

pick up a chair, the table, uh, he bites

all the turnbuckles, he eats them. You

don't know what he's going to do. It's

dangerous being here

Very unorthodox, to say the least.

It's dangerous.

Uhoh, look at this. The animal right on

the case of the adorable one who bails

out immediately.

Tripped on something over there. Almost

took a header.

The mouth of the south, I guess, uh, did

not see fit to make it here as well.

Where is Jimmy Hart, I wonder?

I don't know. But he's usually out there

spraying some perfume around and

adorable hair.

Well, he might be in the back. He might

be sitting in the crowd. You don't know.

You don't know. You never know where he

was.

He's a smart man.

I didn't say that.

I did. That's where you heard it.

Oh, I heard it from somewhere. I knew

that.

Look at George. The wheels are turning,

but in which direction, no one really

knows.

Look at that fur on him.

It's like he should be vacuumed.

Adrian has still got those leg warmers

on as well as the rest of his lovely

attire. You like that, huh? doesn't have

doesn't have on $39 worth of stuff,

including his ring tights.

What are you saying? Any shops at garage

sales? Well,

chewing gum. Very dangerous thing to do

in a ring. He'll spit it out before the

match starts.

George, oh, look at that. Wrapped one of

those whatever it was around the neck of

the animal and choking him out with it.

A scarf, would you call it?

A big doily, maybe. Big doily.

Adoba one caught the animal

and unloading on him right now with a

heavy artillery. Look at that. Referee's

still letting him do that.

Well, you say what you want about the

way Adonis's lifestyle has changed, the

way he dresses, the way he

walks around that ring. That man is a

vicious man and he can wrestle. I never

questioned his wrestling ability.

[Applause]

Only the way in which he portrays

himself.

What's he trying to do? Get him in or

out?

Uh-oh. George just pulled something out

of the back of his tights.

[Applause]

The animal reaching back there looking

for something.

He's trying to rip off a fur coat.

He's got something in his hand right

now.

Adrien still got all that paraphernalia

on.

He just took off about 90 lbs of fur off

one shoulder.

Oh, some kind of a foreign object nails

Adrian. in the throat with it.

That's it right now. The winner, Adrien

Nadon, as far as I'm concerned.

Referee hasn't seen it. No, he didn't

see it.

You want to be commentator, referee,

judge, jury, everything.

When you're as talented as I am, you can

do it all.

The animal continues to go to work on

adorable upside down. Whoa. Adonis took

a terrible fall there.

And the animals coming right out after

him.

[Applause]

You make mention to words Jimmy Hart.

Where's Albano?

No one knows where the captain is. Oh,

look at this slam on the right.

And that'll take a couple of years off

your career.

I guarantee you wake up in the morning,

you're going to feel that.

See, the man should be controlled at all

times.

He's dangerous dangerous to society.

Did you not see the psychiatric help

that he got?

He got help.

Yes.

This man has had help.

Yes, absolutely.

You mean he was worse?

Oh, yes. Considerably.

My goodness.

Both men now outside the ring and Adrien

Adonis caught the animal stepping in

with a left hand and now he's unloading

with lefts and rights

and referee laying the count on both of

them.

This is doesn't resemble a wrestling

match in any way, shape, or form. Bobby,

well, you can't wrestle when you're in

there with George Steel. You have to

fight fire with fire. Steel pulled

something out of his trunks and used it

on Adonis. What's Adonis supposed to do?

Go for a top wrist. Well, what did

Adonis do right at the onset of the

match? He took one of those scarves and

wrapped it around the neck of the

animal.

Here, look. He's got something. He's got

something.

Provocation.

Caught Adrien again with it. Adrien

backwards over that top rope. Lucky for

him, the apron was there and the ramp.

And George got some kind of a shiny

object in his right hand.

[Music]

Oh no, that was the bow in Adrien's

hair. I'm sorry.

I'm taking a walk.

Uh, the brain is leaving immediately.

There they go. Right by the back of our

announce position

playing follow the leader.

Look at George Steel's eyes. There's no

There's nothing in there.

George got caught coming up the ramp.

He just has a blank stare. That man's a

Maybe he heard you.

I hope for your sake he did not.

He probably doesn't understand English.

You are a George. The animal

steel. I'll say it right to his face.

Shall I call him over?

George.

Uh-oh. There goes Bobby. There's the

animal now. Steel chair inside the ring.

And another one. The referee got rid of

the first one. Bobby the Brain is

halfway back to the dressing room.

Has this match continued? I thought you

were a goner.

Where did you go?

The guy's on his way over. What?

Oh, yeah. I got you a Coke. I thought

you wanted a Coke.

You alleviated the premises in a hurry.

I'm trying to do a nice little deed for

you. I ordered you a Coke.

Look at this. 300 lb plus. Oh, excuse

me.

Adrien's wish came true. He's now a

soprano.

And look at George unloading now.

[Applause]

Adrien ripe for the picking right now.

Listen to the noises that comes out of

steel. He's growling.

I'm surprised that Adrien is able to get

to his feet.

Oh, ram that left shoulder right into

the steel post. Oh, inadvertently backed

right into the referee. knocked him down

and out.

And the animal going to work now on the

left arm, upper arm. That's his

favorite, that hammer lock.

That flying hammerlock, his patented

finishing hold.

He's going to get him. Yes. Up in the

air. Adrien saying yes, but the referee

is down and cannot hear or see anything.

George now over to help up Carrie

Yorken.

Watch out. Pearl Harbor job scoops him

up from behind. Shoulders down. Three

count.

What a miscarriage of justice.

Justice. The man used everything. He

threw chairs in the ring. He used a

steel rail. He pulled something out of

his trunks and he was beaten by

wrestling.

Is that the only thing you saw or is

that the only thing you wanted to see?

Only thing I noticed. Uhoh.

Let's go forget the official word. The

winner of the match, the adorable Adrien

Adonis.

Adrien Adonis can consider himself very

fortunate here as he scoops underneath.

Nice double leg trip from behind. The

referee was down and out of it when

Adrien submitted. But you didn't see

that, Bobby, did you?

I saw Adrien yelling. He was in pain. I

heard the referee ask him, "Does it

hurt?" He said, "Yes." He said, "Yes, it

hurts." He didn't say he gave up.

He gave up. this carriage of justice

here in Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens.

But nevertheless, on to victory.

Oh, it's

that piece of work right there. Adrien

Adonis will be back.

Well, Bobby, I'm going to make a

suggestion suggestion to Toronto Maple

Leaf promoter Jack Tunny that he have at

least one additional referee sitting

down there at ringside at all times just

for reasons like that. reasons like what

the

obvious to everyone in the entire

Toronto Maple Leaf Gardens, including

yourself, that Adrien Adonis gave up.

And the uh flying hammerlock,

he didn't give up. You should have some

hearing aids put behind the glasses. You

got

I don't see too well, but my hearing is

accent.

He didn't. The referee said, "Does it

hurt?" He said, "Yes." That's what he

said.

Does it hurt? Give me a break.

I heard I'm sitting right there next to

you. I heard it.

When George slaps that flying hammerlock

on you, it doesn't take but a second for

you. What about when George Steel used

the uh

I saw that just to ref

your men I have noticed of late have uh

done some things that are not exactly

punishing out of their trunk.

[Music]

We're back wrestling fans and uh Bobby

we're about to take a look at a man who

has the most impressive record. a former

tag team partner of the living legend

Bruno San Martino. I'm talking about

Cannonball Paresi. Uh currently making

his home Niagara Falls, Canada.

Outstanding athlete.

And uh Steve Lombardi. Both from New

York City. Steve Lombardi.

I guess the winner of this match gets a

week in New York and Louisa gets two

weeks. Huh.

Or one week in Niagara Falls. Right now

we're going to go down to ringside in

Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens as we join

this match in progress. Let's go to it.

Absolutely.

in there with a real ring veteran.

Hand full of hair forces Tony back into

the ropes.

Oh, he knew he would. Oh, what a short

forearm smash by Parisi.

Talk about payback. He gave him a

receipt in a hurry.

Look out. And the ball in for the ride.

Nice shoulder block. Lombardi down but

up quickly. Hip locked out. Reversal.

Nice arm drive. Well, Parisi hasn't lost

any of that quickness.

I believe last time we uh did this

broadcast together, I mentioned to you

that Parisi was a world class handball

player.

Uh that and chef, I think you said too.

Be interesting.

You were not impressed with either,

Kevin.

No, a handball doesn't impress me.

Very rugged sport.

Yeah, but you don't get paid for it.

Oh, yes, they do.

But not like you do in wrestling. Well,

there's money involved today in the

handball competition for sure.

Got to straighten out Freey's hand there

in case it was bent up a little bit or

something.

And I guess you get your parking

validated. So, it works out, I guess,

when you play at those handball court.

Maybe you do.

You never play any handball, huh?

Uh, or raetball.

Oh, yes. I played a lot of it. But

they have a lot of that in Beverly

Hills.

A lot of it. A lot of it in I like

tennis. I like to be outdoors. I like

golf. I like yaching. I don't want to be

inside with a bunch of sweaty people

bouncing a ball off a wall.

Shoulder block again by the cannonball.

Lombardi quickly down in front. Oh,

scoop slam. Nicely done.

Kick out immediately by Paresi. Action

heavy here in the early going of this

matchup

and right back into that nice arm bar.

Very seldom do I see a smile on the

kisser of Steve Lombardi.

I don't know if you could tell.

Look at the mouth line. Looks like he's

Looks like he's got a coat hanger in his

mouth. Oh, Lombardi.

Yeah.

Handsome man, though. Kind of like a the

Italian like one of those Greek Italian

statues, you know. Uh-huh. Yeah.

Got to have a break here. He's into the

ropes.

Won't see a clean break.

No, didn't think so.

Nice reversal right at the last moment

and right back with that arm drag again

and cinches up on that arm bar once

more.

Both men been flying around and neither

one of them seems to be running out of

gas whatsoever. Both in excellent

physical condition as you better well be

you want to survive here in the World

Wrestling Federation. You know, it's

amazing the shape that the cannonball is

in when you consider he's probably doing

all the maids work and cooking there at

the uh what do they call it? The noel

motel. What's in there?

Oh, I'm not sure exactly the the name of

the hotel or restaurant.

It's like that one on TV where you check

out but you don't check in or something

like that.

Look out. Foot race now. Lombardi makes

it back inside and hot on his trail. Oh,

shoulder block.

Oh,

nice maneuver by Lombardi.

Lombardi came out good on that. Soon he

dove in that ring and Cannonball

followed him. That's when he should have

stopped, turned around, and caught him

coming through.

Well, he was,

but he it worked out okay.

At that point in time, he was running

for his life, and he wasn't thinking

about it too much, I'm sure.

You got to think, Monsoon, you got to

use your brains.

Of course, I know that you instilled

that into all your men and your family.

I almost said stable again, but Bundy

Stud, Harley Race, right?

You don't have to tell handsome Harley

as he likes to be known as.

Wow. Ram face first into the top

turnbuckle.

Lombardi's turned the tide here. Hooks

the leg. Got that left arm out of there

pretty much. No way you're going to hold

Gesi down that way.

Reverse chin lock now by Lombardi.

a real tribute to Jack Tunny. The uh

kind of crowds we've been getting here

in Toronto Maple Leaf Guards doing a

tremendous job

and he's the president of the World

Wrestling Federation, who I've also had

a audit negotiation with and who uh sat

in on the hearing we had that got Andre

the Giant suspended.

Well, I don't know. I think the juryy's

still out on that, Larry.

Well, you don't see him around, do you?

I put the pressure on, Tony. I put the I

put the I leaned on him a bit. remain on

it.

Uh-huh.

He could end up out here in Lake

Ontario, you know, with the fishes. Not

careful.

Reverse chin lock. Still holding on

here. Lombardi.

Paresi having to carry his weight as

well right now. Referee down there

checking to make sure this doesn't slip

under the chin and become a choco.

Warning Paris or warning Lombardi about

it now.

[Applause]

1 2 3.

Finally made him break it.

That'll give you an eedran headache

right there.

Oh, grabbed him right by the ears.

What's he trying to do now about bite

him?

Oh, Paresi right out onto the ramp.

His ETA was about 3 seconds.

[Applause]

are looking to a little bit the worst

for wear here.

Lombardi showing everybody that he's in

great shape. See, now Lombardi ought to

come off that top rope right on the ramp

on him. Well, maybe that's not in his

repertoire, Bobby. Well,

I'm just trying to help everybody.

That's what I'm here for.

I understand that good Samaritan that

you are. Well,

[Music]

Lombardi going to help Paresi back in

Irish whip coming up.

Caught him right on the shoulder with

that. I'd like I think he'd like to have

had it under the chin, but couldn't get

it. Hooks a one, two, count.

Very slow count. Very slow.

Maybe he'd like to help the referee out.

I'd be an excellent referee.

I'd like to have you referee in one of

my matches years ago.

I would have given you a negative

attitude forever

and you'd have been in the lost column.

Well, I've been there before.

Oh, nice reversal by the cannonball.

Lombardi shot right through. Might have

jammed that left shoulder right into the

steel post. He's holding on to it.

[Applause]

Cannonball with a little tripammer

action there as Lombardi goes. Didn't

quite make it in the corner. Big back

drop. Wow.

Bari making the youngster pay now. Look

out. Cannonball perhaps coming up. Oh,

goodbye.

Warm up the hot shower. This one's over.

It's amazing the way Paresi uses his

brains to beat him.

Cannonball Express right off the second

turnbuckle.

Wrong end. I get confused. I'm sorry.

You do get confused rather easily, don't

you?

Watching for easy. I do.

Let's go up and get the official word.

Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the

match, Tony Cannonball Paresi.

[Applause]

Another impressive victory here in

Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens by Tony

Cannonball Paresi. Let's go back and

take a look at the cannonball as it

comes off the second turnbuckle on the

inside. Imagine the impact coming down

there right on the sternum. Knocks the

wind out of Steve Lombardi. Referee

right down there. One, two, three.

Paresi still impressive in his career in

his quest for victories here in the

World Wrestling Federation. We'll be

back. Chocked up another one. Paresi

impresses me. He's

Well, that was a quick victory. probably

had to get back to the kitchen and do

the dishes.

Highly unlikely they have people that do

that for them in their hotel and motel.

You know, later on this hour, Bobby,

we're going to be seeing the Rouge

brothers, Jacques and Rammon, and they

in Toronto, they uh talked to me in a

dressing room and expressed a real

desire to get their names on a contract

with Stud and Bundy. I was very

surprised.

They speak English.

Of course they speak English.

They're French Canadian. I don't know if

they spoke English, if they had any

formal education or not. They could put

their name in a contract anytime. We

don't care.

You don't care?

No. two very impressive individuals and

uh the fans I'm sure are going to really

be excited when it when they come on the

air because they do some sensational

things and we're going to be looking for

great things that come out of them in

the weeks and months to come here in the

World Wrestling Federation. They are

going to be hot and heavy on whoever's

got their hands on a title. Right now

we're going to go to my friend Ken

Resnick with the most interesting

interview with a dynamic duo Morocco and

Fuji.

Thank you very much Guerilla Monsoon.

Now, as you wrestling fans know, many

many superstars right here in the World

Wrestling Federation. Many, many

different reasons that they emerge

victorious week in and week out in their

various matches. But certainly, there

continues to be a great deal of talk,

Mr. Fuji, if you will, of the mind-to-

mind communication between you and your

man, Magnificent Morocco.

This secret voice, ancient art secret,

mind-to- mind communication, great wave

vibes, good vibration boy song and also

sick vibration comes out too.

I can believe that now. Magnificent

Morocco. If we could before we talk

about one man in particular, that being

Paul Ordorf, Mr. Fuji, a lot of talk

still circulating about your escapades,

we shall say, in Fuji Vice. And I wonder

if I might query what might be coming

out next from the dramatic endeavors of

you and Magnificent Morocco.

I had Magnificent want to explain this.

This is his topic. He love it.

All right. Magnificent.

You got it right. It's topical, not

tropical.

It was It was tropical. You heard the

joke was Ferdinand Marcos, Ronald Reagan

and Mikuel Gordov were stranded on an

island and and who they only had no know

the plane was crashing and they only had

one pair one parachute you see and there

was Ronald Reagan said I should have it

because I'm the oldest Gorbachov said I

should have it because I'm the leader of

a powerful country

and wait a second that's not the punch

line Marco said we should put this to a

vote Marcos won 94 to2 get it that's

what we got coming after Fuji vice we

have humor, we have delight, we have

talent, we have pesos, we have emotion,

we have we have everything. And we have

Mr. Wonderful.

Isn't he wonderful?

The man who stands there with the

washboard abdominals and the washboard

brain.

Well, it seems magnificent Morocco and

Mr. Fuji have a poor belief used up

enough time so not to talk about Mr.

Wonderful. We'll be back right after

this.

[Music]

We're back, wrestling fans. And Bobby,

it's time for a special TNT piece with I

know a man that you sort of idolize,

Jake the Snake Roberts, and brings a lot

of his friends with him. And uh I've

never seen uh Mean Jean so upset, or

Alfred for that matter. Well, Alfred's a

big wimp, and Mean Gan probably hides

behind him. As far as snakes go, uh, if

you're scared of him, you scared him.

Well, I've seen Mean Gene with a lot of

barracudas, but never with a snake. But

we're going to take a look at it right

now as we go to this special TNT piece.

[Music]

Oh my. I can't say as I'm exactly

looking forward, Jake the Snake Roberts,

to this little uh little tour. What What

are the What is this?

It's a diamond back rattlesnake. Uh

you've probably seen a lot of them in

the movies. They like to make noises.

Come on, boy. Make some sounds.

Poison. Poisonous ice.

Very poisonous. Very poisonous.

Let me ask you a question. If somebody

were to be bit by by this diamond back

rattler, how long would it be before you

bought the farm?

Well, it depends on the

Hey, don't agitate them.

Oh, let's get him upset here. See if

you'll make a little noise for us. Maybe

we could actually get him out of the

cage here.

Oh, no. Wait a minute. No, not out of

the cage.

It depends on the individual as far as

how long you'd live.

Wait a minute. You've got him rattling

now.

Oh, let's get him going.

That's a little little sick as far as

the display is concerned with a skull

right in the cage.

Well, I'm sure that his ancestors have

put several people into this position. A

diamondback rattlesnake is a very quick

very quick.

What do you keep these things around the

house? Is that is that your thing?

That's the general idea.

You almost got it.

Let's Let's move along. What about uh

what about this one right here?

Come on, boy. Come on. Come on.

It's hot.

Very hot.

That's a slight warning system. So, most

people don't understand that. That's a

warning system for you if you hear this

noise to back up. And you know what's

funny? Most people do.

Most moving right along. Uh, what do we

have here?

This is a Mexican rattlesnake.

Differences in color. Uh, obviously

quite a bit larger. I I understand that

uh this snake actually bit somebody at

one time and

he didn't make it.

Well, you know, sometimes you just don't

get people to the hospital in time. You

know, that's one thing you got to

realize. If you're going to play with

snakes, sooner or later you're going to

get bit.

Here, I want to show you something,

though. Huh?

I want to show you.

Wait, wait a minute. Now, just a

Let's put him down here.

What do we have?

This one makes an unbelievable sound

here. Watch this.

Come on boy.

[Music]

This is a viper. Good lord. Get away

from me.

Very pretty snake though. These are

vipers. These are from Pakistan. Now

what's interesting about these fellas

here is that the mortality rate.

Other words, if you get bit 95% of the

time you won't live.

You can't get anything to help you.

My god, what a thought. Robert,

what a great system though, huh? That

way you're not a loser. For sure. Now,

here. Here we have prize right here.

Oh, you ever heard of uh a black mamba?

Can Can you move this away? It just

makes me nervous as uh a lady of illute

in the front pew of church. Go ahead.

This is a black mamba down here. Now,

they call them three-step mambas.

Three steps? Cuz that's just about how

long you're going to live, my man. Three

steps. Now, right here, I think

everybody can identify with these.

Yeah,

these are cobras.

Oh my word.

Beautiful cobras at that.

Don't get him hot.

Jeez, you agitate those.

Let's get him to stand up here and

spread out and show you what they look

like.

Well, you're poking them.

Sure, I'm poking him.

I'll poke Steamboat, too.

Good. But

Ste got away once. He will not get away

again. I promise you. There.

Wait, are there two of them in there?

Yeah. Two nice ones. And if you look at

the end of the uh bench here, that's the

little baby of the mother and father

here. You see, life goes on for some,

but not for everyone.

Let's get them to spread. That's what's

really pretty is when they spread out

and they look so pretty. And they're

very beautiful animals. Snakes are very

clean.

Cruel but fair, right?

Oh, that's the way I got to look at it.

Now, I want to show you something.

We We've only got time for

I want to show you something here

because, you know, I can associate

Go right ahead with people.

Now, this big fat one down here, the

real big one, reminds me a lot of Hulk

Hogan. And I say that because Hulk Hogan

is obviously the biggest man around the

WWF. After all, he is world champion.

But you look and see how lazy he's

gotten. You're very lazy, Hogan. And I

talk to this snake every night because

sooner or later, sooner or later, Hogan

will fall into the trap. Now, here's a

little one down here that reminds me of

Steamboat. Look at this fool. See how

stupid he is? He's got himself upside

down. That reminds me of Steamboat

because Steamboat is knocking on the

wrong door.

Well, what what about back in the bag?

Well, that son of Sam, that's what I

named him.

And that one reminds me a lot of me.

I'm going to go out on a limb. If we can

just very quickly sneak back up here,

Jake, I'm going to I'm going to ask you,

your lordship, come on up.

Are you sure?

Yes.

He's assured me that we will we will be

safe.

I changed my mind.

Oh, he's changed his mind.

Well, some people change their minds,

and Steamboat should ask for some solid

advice. And the best advice I got for

you, Steamboat, is that if you're going

to play with snakes, sooner or later

you're going to get bit. Everybody knows

that.

Wow. Alfred Hayes managed to stay in the

background quite a bit. His lordship was

uh out of frame most of the time.

He was two area codes away, I'll tell

you that.

He was a little bit nervous. I I'm glad

that uh Mr. Roberts doesn't enter the

ring with anything other than those

pythons.

I like the way he talks to him through

the glass.

You like that, huh? I like the way he

talks to Hogan through.

You manage a few snakes yourself now

that I think about it.

And I'm sitting here with a gorilla.

Wrestling fans, plenty of action still

to come here this week on Prime Time

Wrestling. We're going to take a look in

just a moment at Jacques and Raymon, the

fabulous Roujo Brothers. We'll be right

back.

[Music]

[Music]

We're back, wrestling fans, and we're

about to take a look at a very

sensational tag team match from Canada,

Bobby. Two of the I think the most

upcoming youngsters and brother team,

which is very unusual in the ranks of

professional wrestling. I'm talking

about the Roujo brothers.

Well, you know, over my travels over the

years, everybody's talked about the

Roujo throughout Canada, throughout

Europe, all over the world. They're

supposed to be the fastest team, one of

the only brothers team in professional

wrestling.

Just a question until they made it down

here. Right now, let's go down to the

match with Hercules Hernandez and Mr.

Gibbs.

Weighing 242 lbs, Terry Gibbs,

his partner from Florida, weighing 255

lbs, Hercules Hernandez.

Their

opponents now about to approach the ring

area from Montreal, Quebec. With a

combined weight of 484

lbs, Jacques and Raymond, the Roujo

Brothers.

Big round of applause for Jacques and

Ramon, the Rujo brothers.

[Music]

You're not going to see me put my hands

together for them.

No, I I don't think so.

Oh, Raymond got his name on his bathrobe

today.

Well, they both do.

Not a bathrobe either, Bobby. It's a

ring robe. Very impressive looking ring

robe at that.

Very expensive. I noticed that the uh

fashion plate, Mr. Freddy Blassie, very

conspicuous by his absence.

Usually he doesn't let the uh Herk

wander around on his own, does he?

Well, you never know. He might be with

Volkov and the chic.

He might be.

You never know what he's up to.

Most of the time he never knows what

he's up to.

Oh, I believe Fred has a good control of

his faculties.

This Hernandez, what a powerhouse this

man is.

Big test here for the Roujo.

[Music]

You know, you talk sometimes about Jimmy

Jack Funk being off the wall.

Look at this Hernandez.

Yeah. He doesn't have a full deck, does

he?

He's missing a few jacks and queens and

kings, I think.

I don't even think he knows what suit it

is or cares,

but he's a winner.

Looks like Jacques is going to start off

with Terry Gibbs.

Going to see a lot of fastm moving

action in this one for sure.

[Applause]

Action is always hot and heavy when we

come to Toronto Maple Leaf Gardens.

Promoter Jack Tunny doing a tremendous

job and bringing the greatest wrestling

talent in the world here. He pays top

dollar.

He certainly does.

Unlike uh the fashion plate cheapkate

Freddy

deep pockets, I like to call him.

Looks to me like he's doing quite well.

He's got diamonds. He dresses nice.

drives it.

Yeah. Do you ever see what his men wear?

What they drive?

I

think he's short changing them a little

bit.

Come on soon. When you come from Iran or

you come from Russia or you're you're

one of those people that just have lived

in poverty all your life, you don't

expect a whole lot. Iran is one of the

richest countries in the world. Obie,

what's the matter with

the country is the people aren't.

But he's rich with wrestling knowledge.

Yes.

Of course, you can't go and deposit that

in the bank.

Jock with a side headlock right off the

bat.

Terry gets rid of but a nice shoulder

block off the ropes. Terry had something

in mind there. He stepped right in and

but Jacqu was a little too quick for

him.

[Applause]

What's he complaining about, Von?

I'm not like you. You could probably

hear if you wanted to cuz you ease drop

on people. Well, I've heard that.

I I do.

You always seem to try to find out

what's going on.

Well, he's complaining about something.

I'm just wondering what he's complaining

about. Thought maybe with your eagle

eye, you might have seen something that

I overlooked. Another nice shoulder

block by Jacques.

Terry Gibbs uh not fairing too well

early on in this matchup. Think he got

his bell rung early,

making the tag to the hurt.

[Music]

One of the driving forces here in the

World Wrestling Federation, Hercules

Hernandez, he put together.

I wonder if he chose Gibbs for a partner

or Gibbs chose him or exactly how that

worked.

Probably.

Thanks. Thanks for clarifying that for

us.

I'm just here to help you out. Side

headlock once again.

Jacques, you'll have a little tougher

time holding the herk down with it.

There he goes. Shoulder

block didn't do much that time.

Take a look at that. Frenchie,

a real powerhouse upper bodywise

Hercules Hernandez and Terry Gibbs a

cheering section for him.

I guess the only other person cheering

for them is you, Bobby.

Well, all right. Let's say it's close to

my heart because Fred's a good friend of

mine.

Yes. And you don't have too many of

them. So you don't want to lose any,

right?

You mean friends? A friends named Fred?

No, just friends period. I have a lot of

friends.

See, when I'm not involved in wrestling,

which is I 24 hours a day, but I take

time off. I socialize with a lot of

people outside the sport of wrestling.

I'm sure you do. Would you like to

elaborate? bankers, lawyers, doctors,

movie stars, head of producers in

California, these big movie industries,

people with the networks, psychiatrists,

psych. No, I don't associate with

psychologist.

Not there's nothing wrong with

psychiatrist, but like

I lay on a couch all day and pour out my

problems to him.

Someone said that you resemble that

remark.

I have no mental trouble.

I think was big John stud. Oh, nicely

frog right over the top and runs right

into Raymon with a roundhouse. Now the

tag is made. They're both in there.

Whoa.

Unloading on Hercules. In comes Terry

Gibbs and gets drop kick for his

trouble. The Roujo brothers have cleared

the ring.

Sure. It took two of them to do it.

Well, it's a tag team matches, too.

But they're not both supposed to be in

that ring.

They were pushing Gibbs around

on the other side. They're not supposed

to both be out of the ring.

Well, this we might as well call it the

not supposed to match.

Well, you might say that.

Hercules carrying on some kind of an

intelligent conversation with our

ringiders. I doubt it if that's

possible.

Was no tag made there, ref.

[Applause]

[Music]

Raymond in there now with Hercules

Hernandez. Her says, "Let me challenge

you to a little arm wrestling."

[Music]

We're going to actually see something

here, Mom.

Maybe.

Come on, Roujo. Come on, Frenchie. See

if you got any guts. See, let's see how

strong you are. Check in with brother

Jacques. That's nice. Wise thing to do

or not? It's not a wise thing in my

opinion to do.

Uh Jock, should I uh arm wrestle the big

guy or just stand here? Huh?

Never play another man's game.

The 11th commandment.

Oh, we're going to see it.

Test of strength here. Arm wrestling

style.

[Applause]

I I don't believe Raymond can win this.

I don't believe the Rios can win this

match. I I don't believe that they're

doing this either.

You got it. You got it. You got it. You

got it. You got it. You got it. You got

it.

I've never seen this done before, Bobby.

You got it.

[Applause]

[Music]

Raymon trying to match upper arm

strength and forearm strength

with Hercules Hernandez.

I think Hercules has something else

devious in mind to do here. Almost down

on the canvas now

fighting back though. Raymon.

Oh, look at this.

I think he's going to put him down.

Raymon's hand just about down, but now

he's reaching back for a little

something extra. Raymond Rujo is digging

in with his toes.

Look at that.

Just when Raymon got things going his

way to Herk gave a nice eye rake and

that was all she wrote. Duck underneath

nicely high cross body. Wow. Her got out

of there in a hurry. Where's Gibbs

going? Down.

Roujo brothers have once again cleared

the ring.

They must be from a closely knit family.

They're always watching each other's

backs. They're always coming to help

each other.

That's what tag team action is all

about. You should know that.

Grown man. Let him fight his own

battles. Is that what you how you teach

King Kong Bundy and Big John stud? Is

that what you tell them?

No. They watch each other's back.

Well, that's what these guys are doing.

Yeah, but the people are against us. We

have to watch ourselves. If we don't

watch for ourselves, who's going to

watch us?

No one.

Absolutely no one. Exactly.

[Music]

I never like tag team action myself,

Benny.

I don't like to depend on anybody else

or have anybody else depend on me.

Wow. Roujo having to use all their speed

and agility, mustering all together to

try to get by the big guy, Hercules

Hernandez and partner Terry Gibbs. Never

play another man's game inside that

ring. That is the 11th commandment. Try

to stay with it. We'll be back with a

conclusion right after this.

[Music]

[Music]

Let me ask you, Bob, it's got to be a

big advantage for a tag team to be able

to speak at least three languages in the

ring that sort of confuse your opponents

a little bit.

Well, imagine if you want to use your

mouth and shoot your mouth off. First of

all, I'm the kind of a guy I never like

to have anything to do with a guy with a

big

Let's go back to the match, why don't

we?

[Music]

Well, it doesn't really matter to me. As

long as there's money there, obviously

tag team, six mans, eight mans, 12 mans,

one man.

Oh, nice maneuver by Jacques, but nobody

home. Terry Gibbs outsmarted.

That's not hard to do.

And now rammed into the outstretched

knee of Hercules Hernandez. Quick tag

made in. Gibbs making sure that Jacques

didn't go anywhere.

[Music]

Wow. He's not all there, Bobby. You know

what I mean when I say accelerating

force?

Yes. That's what Hernandez has.

He just doesn't kick in the corner. His

whole body goes into he accelerates.

[Music]

Unfortunately, he lacks guidance and

direction. I think

I don't know. He's standing up and Rios

are down.

He's got Classy Freddy as his manager.

It's good enough credentials for me.

Obviously,

Bassie went down and found this guy

somewhere down in Tampa, Florida, did he

not? Well, he was always looking for a a

Latin wrestler. Always went Yeah. of

some Spanish descent, you know. I mean,

I don't know what his heritage is, but

Hernandez and from Florida and I don't

know, Cuba. I don't know where he's

from, but he's always been looking for

that.

Wow. Nice shot by G. Go ahead, Bob.

Freddy likes he always has mostly

managed foreign athletes. Have you

noticed that?

Yes.

A lot of people have said that because

that's because they're not well verssed

on the American dollar and Freddy takes

advantage of it.

Well, you got

I don't believe that.

Oh, nice high sunset flip over the top.

Hooks the legs. Referee way out of

position.

And Hercules made sure he didn't get a

three count anyway.

Referee telling the herk to hold on to

the rope in the corner

as Gibbs are applying the front face

lock now and Ray Bone leading the cheers

from outside.

Next thing you'll know he'll have

pompoms. Oh, it would be a bad idea. Add

a little color.

[Applause]

I'd like to give him some color. One

black and one blue eye.

Yeah, I'm sure you would.

I don't see uh King Kong Bundy or Big

John signing a contract with the Roujo's

name on it.

Is that not in the making in the work

somewhere?

Well, a win over them fit competition.

Oh, a win over the Roules uh helps

anybody up the ladder. Any great team,

right? But uh I think it's the other way

around. I don't think they want anything

to do with the Giant stud and King Kong

Bundy.

[Music]

two count.

Jacques manages to kick out.

Looking to get over to his corner.

Making a few maneuvers here. Didn't make

it.

Her dropped a big elbow on him.

Uh-oh. Right between the ropes and down

onto the hard concrete floor here in

Toronto. I think he landed on that steel

bar out there.

Oh, look at this now. distracting a

referee while Gibbs does a number on

Jacques from outside

and Raymon quickly around now to the

assistance of his brother. Here comes

brother now. Everything's all right.

We'll go home now.

Boy, I bet when these two were kids,

they got whipped a lot in the

neighborhood.

Why'd he say that?

They just look they got that kind of a

face on them like the big pansies.

Well, they grew up in a wrestling family

and I'm sure that they could hold their

own with anybody.

Oh, look at that.

They amaze me with the stupidity of the

rouos. Your brother's hurt and he leaves

them.

Referee was about to count him out, I

believe.

Been out there a long time on the

concrete.

Jacques and Gibbs doing all the damage

in the meantime.

Well, he just threw him back in the

ring.

Am I right? His father was the great

Jacqu Rouer.

That's correct.

So, he's uh he's doing what his father

did best. He's laying on his back.

It's I hope his father doesn't hear you

say that, Bo, because you'll be running

for your life.

His dad's retired, right?

That doesn't mean anything.

I'm retired

and you know better to mess with me.

Power slam.

[Music]

Well, giving it back to Terry Gibbs.

[Applause]

Jock taking a whole lot of punishment

here. It's about time for Raymon to get

back into this match. Abdominal stretch.

Back to basics. Back to wrestling.

Not going to be able to beat him that

way by

you wear him down then he's beatable.

Well, he he doesn't have that left leg

wrapped around the left leg of Jacques

to make the hold effective.

Atomic drop perhaps. Yes.

Showing me a little continuity that I

didn't expect to see out of this team.

They're veterans. They're professionals.

[Applause]

Front face locked by the Herk. You know,

brothers always fight. Sisters always

fight. Don't you think they're growing

up? One probably had a better baseball

mitt than the other or one got a new

bike or something. They're always

fighting. They probably still jealous of

one another.

Well, it may be true. It could possibly

be true, but I doubt it. Well, that's

what'll cause him to be defeated.

Highly unlikely.

Tag about to be made here. Referee

distracted by the incoming of Terry

Gibbs. Did not see the tag.

There was no tag.

There was no tag. I didn't see.

I was watching from here. Oh,

sheer power of Hercules stopped that.

Just walked him back over.

Was there a tag there? I didn't see that

one either.

And another inverted atomic drop.

Gibbs giving himself a hand.

Two count. Referee very lethargic and

slow.

Jock trying to get back to his own

corner.

He may just make it now. No, he's going

the wrong direction.

Wrong way. Roujo. Maybe you've heard of

these brothers.

No. U kick.

Look at Gibbs making a block here.

He's ringing wise. He always knows where

he's at when he's in that ring.

Too bad he doesn't have a more

impressive win loss record.

Nice reversal into a backdrop. Oh, a

beauty.

Jacques in the wrong side of the ring

though. And Raymon is screaming for him

to come over and make the tag.

I think that hurt Hercules. Sure.

Stunned him. Maybe knocked the wind out

him.

Raymon now stretching that hand out.

There's the tag.

And a tag was made to Gibbs at the same

time. And look at Raymon explode.

Gibbs in for the ride. Big backdrop.

Whoa. A beauty. Here comes Herk. Catches

a mule kick and a right hand. Double

knock out there.

Come on referee. Get Hernandez out of

there. Oh, he's going to get another

slam.

Oh.

Oh, Hernandez catches him right in the

back with a beautiful high knee. Come

on, ref. Roujo showing a little too much

flash.

Well, look at this double team effort.

Double slam coming up. I don't know who

the legal guy is in there anymore,

Bobby.

I think it's Roujo. No, I mean between

Gibbs and Hernandez.

Doesn't matter.

Doesn't matter. All four of them are in

there right now.

Four-way going on inside the ring right

now. And the Roujo brothers on the

receiving end about to be slingshot

together. No reversal.

Gives down. Drop kick. And there goes

Herk. And another drop kick over for the

cover. It's all over.

Roujo outsmarting Hernandez and Gibbs.

Referee lost control again. You think

so? Couldn't keep the Rou out of the

ring. Let's get the official word.

The winners of the match, Chop and

Raymond, the Roujo Brothers.

Hardfought victory, but nonetheless a

victory. Look at Hercules. He doesn't

know what happened.

[Applause]

Checking out with Norman Kimber, our

ring announcer, trying to get a

clarification. Kirk, your partner, was

counted down. One, two, three. The

fantastic Roujo Brothers. On to victory.

Don't go away. More action to come.

Wow, what a sensational team. We're

going to be seeing a whole lot more of

them, Bobby. And you know, they come

from a wrestling family. Their dad was

one of the most outstanding Canadian

wrestlers of all time. and you can't

help but grow up in a wrestling family

and pick up all that valuable

information that you need, you know, to

be superstars in the world of

professional wrestling.

Well, I imagine his father did pick up a

lot of valuable information. It probably

weren't from him. He probably came home

a lot of nights with the seat of his

trunks worn out and probably spent a lot

of time soaking in the tub.

Just hope that he doesn't hear you

making these remarks.

He may be retired, but uh I'm I think

he's

he's a rou. How tough can he be? Now,

these two punks are fast. They are

quick. They're probably probably the

best team out of Canada in the history

of wrestling, but they don't really

impress me.

Well, they certainly impress me. Right

now, we're going to go to a very

interesting interview with my friend Ken

Resnik, along with newcomer to the World

Wrestling Federation, Billy Jack.

Gorilla Monsoon, as you are well aware,

nowhere is a competition tougher than

right here in the World Wrestling

Federation. Tremendous stars to say the

least. And one man that has suddenly

come here is new to the World Wrestling

Federation. And Billy Jack Haynes, if

you will, but certainly no stranger to

professional wrestling rings. Billy

Jack, a pleasure to welcome you, Billy

Jack Haynes here to the World Wrestling

Federation.

Thank you very much, Ken. Uh, first of

all, I want to thank my family back in

Oregon. If you're wondering why wearing

this green and gold, that's the state of

Oregon's colors and I represent the

state of Oregon all over the World

Wrestling Federation and I'm very glad

to be here.

Uh, Billy Jack, how many years have you

been wrestling professionally?

I've been professional wrestling for

four years. as I uh broke in

professional wrestling in Calgary,

Alberta. Uh thanks to my good friends,

the tag team champions Dynamite Kid and

Davy Boy Smith who helped me out a great

deal and I'm very happy to be here and

uh these guys here are great. The talent

here in the WWF is New Maruno and that's

why I'm here.

Billy Jack, for the fans that may not

have had the privilege of seeing you

wrestle before during your matches, is

there any one particular say submission

hole you like to make use of?

Yes, Ken. Uh in professional wrestling

is as tough as it is I work out

constantly all the time and uh you got

to run do your wind sprints do your

training do your stretching to prevent

injury uh I have mastered the full

Nelson that's uh as my finishing hold

submission hold behind the neck it puts

the opponent out once you feel him go

you can feel his weight drop you release

it because it's a very deadly hold also

you can put severe injury on your

opponent but uh I'm just uh glad to be

here in the WWF the World Wrestling

Federation uh it is the uh the best

there is and that's why I'm here.

Well, Billy Jack, talking about the best

there is, for example, if I could get

your opinion, we'll say the

Intercontinental Champion, the Macho

Man, Randy Savage.

Randy Savage is known all over the

world. Uh the guy just flies through the

air like a like a bird. He's he's

strong. You can tell he's in great shape

also. And uh just the list goes on and

on here.

I'm certainly one title Billy Jack Aes

would certainly like to see around his

waist, that of the Intercontinental

title. But wrestling fans again, Billy

Jack Aes and the World Wrestling

Federation. We'll be back right after

this.

[Music]

[Music]

We're back, wrestling fans. Bobby, it's

time for an extra special match

featuring the Moond Dogs. You know, over

the years there have been plenty of them

here in the World Wrestling Federation.

Rex and Spotty and Spike and Duke. Why

are you laughing?

Oh, Billy Jack Hayes or something.

Where's the state colors? Obviously, you

must be from Oregon. Maybe I am from

Morgan. What's wrong with that?

Be damp, too. And so,

let's go down to ringside right now as

the Moond Dogs take on Tony Parks and

Nelson Velour. A special added

attraction match here on Prime Time

Wrestling. So, let's go to ringside. You

want me to turn around? I'll turn

around.

The following tag team match is

scheduled for one fall. Introducing

first to my right from Montreal, Quebec,

Canada, weighing 226 pounds, Nelson

Beloo,

his partner from St. Louis, Missouri at

220 lb, Tony Parks.

Their opponents heling from Parks

Unknown at a total combined weight of

557

lbs. Rex spot the Moon Dogs.

Hello everyone and welcome Guerilla

Monsoon here at ringside for this World

Wrestling Federation Extravaganza.

Another capacity crowd on hand. The

Moond Dogs, Rex and Spotty. What a

formidable team they are and giving away

a lot of weight in this matchup. The

team of Nelson Veloo and Tony Parks.

Tony Parks starting off this match with

Spotty who seems to have a problem

there.

Something got caught in his hair, I

believe. Might have been in there for

quite some time.

Side headlock by Mr. Parks.

I don't think he'd be able to hold

Spotty very long in this. No, he didn't.

Didn't budge him an inch. Spotty down in

front immediately comes up and right

there for a scoop slam. Showing us a

little power from that 226-lb frame.

Tony Parks

spotted backing up there.

Makes a tag to Rex or No, Rex come in to

Yes, he did.

Definitely made the tag.

And so did Parks get out of there. And

now it's Nelson Valu along with Rex

who I'm sure is very very close to that

300 lb mark. Look out fast into the

corner. Nobody home

as Nelson moved out of there in a hurry.

He heard the freight train coming.

Well, they're going to have to use a lot

of speed and agility, these two

youngsters, if they're going to get by

this team.

Nice arm ringer, Mr. Parks,

St. Louis, Missouri. Another quick tag

showing me some continuity.

and wide open double ax handle to the

upper arm area. Wow, what a short

forearm shot that was by Rex

[Music]

and another one right in Kisser sends

Mr. Beloo down to the canvas and a quick

tag to spot.

Bondogs with the most impressive record

here in the World Wrestling Federation

tag team competition.

Oh, shoulder breaker. Well executed by

Spotty.

That could put you out of action for

quite some time. That particular move

right there

[Applause]

as Rex continues the onslaught here.

Nelson.

Just a line long and heavy for entrance

here to the World Wrestling Federation,

which is the mecca for all professional

wrestling.

And these youngsters like Valu and Parks

wanting to make a name. Oh, look at the

clothes line.

Nelson had the wind knocked right out of

him. Another quick tag made as body

steps in.

Irish whip in. Look out. Back drop now.

Sunset flip. Can he get him over? Yes.

Couldn't quite reach far enough with the

legs to hook the shoulders down, but it

certainly was a nice effort.

Going to pay for it right here. Back

breaking coming up.

Bund spot executes those moves with a

lot of finesse and a lot of power behind

him as well. Side headlock and another

quick tag made and wide open Nelson

Valure

plats one right in the short ribs. Nice

knee lift

right there in the corner but didn't

make the tag.

Tony Parks had the arm outstretch but

didn't look like he was too enthusiastic

about getting into this one. Once again,

front face lock now by the big big dog.

Shot right to the ramis of the mandible

alongside the jaw.

Reverse chin lock now. Referee will have

to keep a close eye on it.

take much to slip this down into a choke

hole.

Gilberto Roman with the referee.

Plants a knee right in the thoracic area

of the vertebrae

and reaches right back and another quick

tag made.

Once these Moon Dogs get the upper hand,

there's really no stopping them. They're

relentless in their pursuit. Side

headlock now by Spotty.

The offense completely gone out of the

team of Nelson Valu and Tony Parks.

Turns it over with a nice standing wrist

lock, but Spotty just in the right place

to reach over and make the tag.

Just when you think you've got them

where you want them, you find out you

don't.

There's that good forearm short forearm

uppercut again. In comes Tony. A house

of fire. Parks unloading with some right

hands and an elbow.

Got the big guy reeling a little bit.

Irish whip. No reversal.

Excuse me. Oh, power slam right down.

Doesn't bother to hook the leg. I

believe he knocked the window. He could

have had the three count there and chose

not to. Jerked him up by a handful of

hair. Said, "We're not done punishing

this youngster yet. He wants to be in

the World Wrestling Federation. We're

going to teach him what it's like." A

look at that. Double team Meford with

the elbow off the second turnbuckle.

This one is history.

Wow.

Just that quick. When the Moond Dogs

decide to put somebody away, they do it

in a hurry. Let's go up and get the

official word.

The Moon Dogs.

Moond Dogs. On to victory once again in

a World Wrestling Federation. Tony Parks

almost got decapitated there, Bonnie.

Big loss.

Well, you know, he really belongs in a

light heavyweight territory. uh so to

speak because you get in there with the

guys like the Moond Dogs and it can

terminate your career for you in a

hurry.

Probably won't be seeing much of him

anymore.

Highly unlikely, but we will be seeing a

whole great deal more of one Andre the

Giant who Bobby told me says that he is

suspended here. We're going to find out

more about that when we come back.

I want that match taken off.

[Music]

Well, wrestling fans, coming up, another

added feature here this week on Prime

Time Wrestling, where in fact, if you

were host of this program, Bobby, you

know what the program content was.

Obviously, you did not know about this

Andre match that we're going to take a

look at from Keel Auditorium in St.

Louis, Missouri. And I don't think that

the jury is completely in on the

suspension of one Andre the Giant. I

myself am not sure about this and I'm

sure the entire wrestling world isn't

either.

You can check with Jack Tunny. You can

check with whoever you want. The man has

been suspended. Now, at first when you

sprung this little surprise on me, I was

I was upset because when something is

done, it's done. He's supposed to be

suspended, but he is suspended. So, this

will be the last chance for you and all

the humanoids out there to enjoy seeing

the last of Andre the Giant. Sit back,

put your feet up, pop some popcorn in

your yap, and enjoy it.

Highly unlikely that that will be fact

right now. Let's go back to the Keel

Auditorium, St. Louis. Andre the Giant

taking on Alexia Smeirnoff. Let's take a

look at it.

I don't have to.

Andre smiling at this capacity crowd.

However, not smiling will be Andre's

opponent.

Andre with pats on the back.

Yes, look at him in comparison to the

fans about ringside.

7'4 in near the 500 lb mark. And again,

the smile on his face. There's only one

athlete like this in the world today.

The one and the only Andre stepping over

the top rope. This is going to be some

matchup. This capacity crowd in

anticipation of the matchup.

This contest is scheduled for one fall

with a 20minut time limit. Introducing

first to my left from Russia

weighing 263

lbs

Alexis.

his opponent from Grenobyl in the French

Alps, weighing 492

lbs, the eighth wonder of the world,

Andre the Giant.

Yes, indeed. They have turned out in

droves to see this extraordinary athlete

and you really just can't appreciate how

huge Andre is unless you meet him in

person. You stand next to him. Only then

can you get the true perspective

and Alexius Smeirnoff is getting a very

good perspective I would think right

about now. Gene Oakland,

we love Andre

as he puts forth a hand.

All right.

[Applause]

Well, Smeirnoff

not wanting to shake the hand of Andre.

Well, not getting off on a right foot

considering the foot that he's going to

be going against. Take a look.

Look at that.

Andre

size of those boots.

Andre must be size 70 through the chest.

Over. He's trying to see Smeirnoff

trying to hip toss Andre the Giant,

difficult

if not impossible.

Up he goes. Smeirnoff gets up there. How

about that?

Uh, however, Smeirnoff dropped down to

the canvas.

So, a flying head scissor fails

somewhat. Oh, look at this.

Andre yanks Smeirnoff right back up.

He's in a standing position whether he

wanted to be or not. You know, not only

is it tough to

to take the punishment that Andre the

Giant can hand out, but to inflict any

punishment

on that nearly 500 lb at 7'4 and a half

is virtually impossible.

Save very few that I've ever seen in the

World Wrestling Federation.

Smearnoff actually was quite boastful

coming into this matchup this week.

So my Andre puts on the brakes.

How do you move near 500 lb when it

doesn't want to go?

I wouldn't even adventure, I guess.

Well, yanker here by Smeirnoff. Brings

Andre over to the rope at least.

Perhaps that's one way.

And the hammer. Uhoh. Andre with a

headbutt.

Now decides to take a powder. He's

outside now trying to clear his head.

Little valor there on the part of Bexia

Spirnoff. 263 pounder.

Lengrad

in the Soviet Union

from Russia, but without a great deal of

love at this particular point in time.

Smearnoff contemplating what he can

possibly do against this extraordinary

bohemoth

Andre the Giant.

Andre now

trying to cut the ring off a bit and

locks up with Alexia Smirnoff. And look

at this. Oh, you've got to be kidding.

Smirnoff tried.

Look at Oh my goodness. Smirnoff's in

trouble.

Watch this. Uh-oh. And Kaboom.

[Applause]

But these fans here certainly

recognizing the talents

of Andre.

Oh my, look at that kick to the chest.

Another one out of the shoulder area and

Alexia now turning this matchup around.

The only way he could do it, Vince.

Andre was waiting for a back body drop,

thinking the momentum perhaps of

Smeirnoff would carry him out. Fair

enough on her ropes and really gave

Andre a boot

into perhaps the throat area.

Well, it certainly had to be

strategically placed because it

obviously has done some damage to the

natives of Gobal, France.

And Smeirnoff stepping over Andre now to

apply more pressure, but

under normal circumstances, he would

have to keep up the attack that he had

going for himself earlier on.

Perhaps from a strategy standpoint, from

where we sit, that would be the best

thing to do. Then again, perhaps damage

has been done to the left arm and

shoulder.

Listen to this crowd heat up. There's no

doubt about it. The multitudes going

with Andre the Giant. Tremendously

popular.

Andreov,

[Applause]

what a kick that was to the head. I

don't care how big you are, you have to

feel that.

But look at the big man. Oo, Vince. He's

back on his feet. That's step number one

of the comeback trail.

Smeirnoff.

Oh my.

A grazing right hand by Andre. And

another kick by Alex. Chop to the throat

area. That'll keep him at bay a bit.

Another chop. And another one. Andre

raking those chops across the head. Butt

by Andre.

Tough for that man to pick up a hat off

the rack. And uh Alex is again on the

outside of the ring collecting his

thoughts.

Uh Cobweber too having to be cleared as

a result of this man. Andre the Giants

devastating headbutt.

Mirino now back in and Andre right on

top of him. Headbutt by Andre.

Oh, he's not going to let go. Vince did

not

whip to the ropes coming up. Huge boot

by Andre. What's going to happen now? Oh

my.

One, two, and legs out for now. Round

him out.

Holy cow.

They do love him everywhere.

Andre,

one of the most extraordinary athletes

of all time,

remains undefeated,

will get the official decision. Here is

your winner, Andre the Giant.

Another awesome display by the eighth

wonder of the world. Andre, I don't care

what you say, Bobby. The brain hean,

what the World Wrestling Federation

Rules Committee decides. The outcry from

the wrestling fans and the outcry from

one Andre the Giant, I'm sure will take

care of whatever suspension there may

be.

If these people want to write letters

in, if they want to get a petition

going, if they want to bring back the

giant, hey, help yourself. You can buy a

letter, you can lick a stamp, send it

in.

You may have to pay for

not see him anymore, pal.

Wrestling fans, we'll be right back in a

moment. Right after this.

We're back, wrestling fans. Bobby, on a

recent tour down to down under down in

Australia, a tremendous tag team was

formed, that of Paul Roma and Special

Delivery Jones. And I think they have a

lot to offer as two youngsters climbing

the ladder here in the World Wrestling

Federation. What do you think?

Are you still upset?

Oh, I'm not upset he's gone.

They do have a lot to offer and I hope

they keep offering it to Australia.

Don't bother me with it.

Tag team action this week here on Prime

Time Wrestling. So, let's go down to

ringside right now.

[Applause]

The following is a tag team match

scheduled for one fall. Introducing

first to my left from Antigua in the

West Indies, weighing 239 lbs, SD

Special Delivery Joe,

his partner from Kensington, New York,

weighing 235 lbs, Paul Roma,

and their opponents from Parts Unknown,

weighing 268

lbs, a menace.

His partner from Minneapolis, Minnesota,

weighing 291 lbs, Jim Haley.

Two big tough ones, Gorilla Monsoon here

at ringside with my colleague and friend

mean Jean Oakland for this World

Wrestling Federation tag team matchup.

These guys are a little bit uh

overmatched. Not overmatched, but

oversized this week, Jean. Well, the

menace at 268 and Haley at 291.

Certainly, they've got the weight

advantage over Jones and Roma.

I think that uh young Roma impresses me

with each week that goes by here, Jean.

He shows me some excellent skills as

well as tremendous physical

conditioning, showing me that power

right there.

And as you probably know, Gorilla

Monsoon, I had the opportunity of going

down under on a World Wrestling

Federation tour. Paul Roma very popular

and very impressive in his wrestling

skills and knowledge from the great fans

in Australia.

Well, I understand that you had a point.

Oh, look at this beautiful takeover.

He's got the arm underneath the

shoulder. No way you can pin a man that

way. Understand you had a good time down

under, Jean, you know.

Beautiful country, beautiful people and

they love their wrestling.

Beautiful hip lock off the ropes by Roma

as the menace is in trouble right off

the bat here. Nice arm ringer by the

youngster.

You know, Gorilla Monsoon, you tell me,

but this this young man, Paul Roma, has

come so far in the past 12 or 18 months

after struggling for a couple of years

prior to that.

Well, you know, Jean, in the world of

professional wrestling, the only way you

become really good is to get in there

with a top-notch talent. And Roma's been

doing that of late, and it's showing.

That's when you really learn.

Talking about top-notch talent, how

about veteran SD special delivery shows?

Special delivery. I understand maybe

they'll send you on assignment down to

Antigua, Jane, to cover some of SD's

homeland. I know you would.

Love that.

Quick tag made now as big Jim Haley

steps in.

SD coming close to that 300 lb mark. I'm

sure he's really bulking up. Nice

reverse squat switch, but SD right back

counters nicely with a hammerlock and a

quick tag to Roma.

I think there's the key. Some very, very

nifty, if you will, teamwork on a part

of Roma and SD. They tagged up by the

way in Australia, a couple of benches

down there. And I think they're going to

be a very good combination perhaps uh

somewhere down the road getting a shot

at some real upper echelon tag team

activity here in the war west.

Well, it' be interesting, Jean, to see

them in with the likes of the Heart

Foundation or former world champions,

Craig Hammer, Valentine,

that list goes on and on.

I'll tell you what, the Chic and Volkoff

have been making some heavy waves.

Freddy Blassie contended that he's going

to lead them once again to the title.

That remains to be seen in my book. J,

good looking kid. Paul Roma quickly

banking that tag to Jones. Jones takes

over where Roma left off.

Right back in that hammerlock. Once

you've got a guy down and in a

compromising position,

proper teamwork is so important. Stay

with it. The other man doesn't come in

and go to a leg hold or something to

that effect or side headlock. Stays with

whatever is being worked out.

Oh, Jim Henry now coming out on the with

some big lefts and right. That was a

mistake to the wrong part of the

anatomy. point out.

Haley obviously not doing his homework.

Long place to go for Jones.

SD unloading now. Big left hand and down

goes Haley and he went down hard.

Going back to work on the arm. Another

quick tag. Showing me a lot of

continuity. Oh, look at that. Right off

the middle of the top rope. Takes quite

a bit of agility to be able to do stuff

like that. Never saw the gorilla do any

of those moves. Jean,

I don't recall. Not saying that you

couldn't.

Highly unlikely.

That's about 12 tags now been made by SD

and Roma and maybe one or two by Haley

in the Venice.

We got the short end of that one as

well.

Get SD riled up. He'll put the lights

out for you in a hurry.

Oh, how about that headbutt?

Oh, another beauty. And Big Jim is down

on the canvas again.

Tag was made, but Roma not ready to move

in yet. Now he's going to SD. Set him

up. Oh, beautiful power slam.

What a power slam.

Get the hot shower ready. This one's

over.

You talk about tremendous teamwork. That

tag is fade. And of course, Jones quits

hailing under the ropes. And that's

where Roma takes over with a beautiful

power slam.

Well, I'm wondering why there was a

little bit of hesitation there, G, but

it was obvious they knew what they were

doing. Let's get the official.

The winners of this bout, the team of

Paul Roma and SD Jones. I am impressed,

Bobby. Are you not?

You would be.

Obviously not.

Oh, they're a fast team. They make good

tags.

No substitution for Hammond and Edgars

for experience and youth. And

unfortunately, it's tough to get that

combination in the right perspective.

Cuz you know, with the experience, of

course, comes age

as you well know.

The longer you're in it, the older you

get.

Yeah. And the better you get.

Right.

Hopefully.

Hopefully.

Roman Jones going to be around too long.

I'm anxious to see in uh well the next

match coming up whether the walking

condominium can get by a guy that's got

the experience and the power that is

possessed by Mr. USA Tony Atlas.

Atlas does have power. He does have

experience.

Finally admitted something.

Oh, he does have power and he does have

experience.

Now when Bundy wipes the mat with him,

isn't Bundy going to look great?

Wiping the mat highly unlikely for King

Kong Bundy. We're going to find out in

just a moment. So don't go away.

Well, wrestling fans, it's time for our

prime time feature this week. And I

don't know, I I think that uh you guys

have been popping up an awful lot of

late here on the prime time feature,

yes, they have. Me being host, I pick

it.

Highly unlikely that that's a true

statement.

You still don't believe I'm host, do

you?

No, I don't. Well, I tell you what, King

Kong Bundy is certainly a force to

reckon with, but he's got extreme

difficulties in one Mr. USA Tony Atlas.

So, let's go to the match right now.

Let's go on.

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

Introducing first from Rowan Oak,

Virginia, weighing 270 lbs, Tony Mr. USA

Atlas.

His opponent from Atlantic City, New

Jersey, weighing 458

lbs, King Kong Bun.

[Applause]

my man.

Beauty and the Beast.

I don't know if that was like you

referring to him as a beast.

Well, I wasn't referring to him as a

beast. We're going to see some real

power in this matchup.

I think if anybody can match strength

with King Kong Bundy, it's probably Tony

Atlas. Final Fool Monsoon. Atlas is a

very, very powerful man,

but he's just not that bright.

Are you saying that King Kong Bundy is

some kind of a mental giant?

King Kong Bundy is very intelligent. He

understands what's happening in that

ring.

Chant going out.

Porky I believe it is very rude of the

people here. Tremendous crowd on hand

once again in Toronto's Maple Leaf

Gardens at ringside here. Gorilla

Monsoon along with Bobby the Brain

Heenan,

your host,

manager of King Kong Bundy and a whole

host of other folks. Side headlock right

now by Mr. USA. And Bundy quickly gets

rid of him. Shoulder block by Atlas and

he went down

like running into a brick wall.

Tony scratching his head.

Usually it's the other fella that goes

down when he does that.

Yeah, but Tony's used to scratching his

head.

Going to try it once more.

Same result.

Scratch it again, Tony. Ah, there you

go.

Well, if Bundy doesn't weigh 500 lb or I

don't weigh 100 lb, Bobby, why you have

him announced that 458 lb?

That's his weight.

Atlas getting those feet going. Coming

off again. Oh, high cross body. The big

guy went down. Referee right down there.

Leard Bundy. He's upset.

Well, really thinks he's smart, doesn't

use a gray matter that time.

King Conger a little bit bent out of

shape right now.

As Mr. USA says, there's more to one way

to skin a cat.

Oh, look at that double X handle to the

back of the neck.

Tony now in for the ride. Ducks

underneath the big right hand. Big

headbuck. Yes.

Bobby de Bray just about jumping out of

his seat. One foot drop kick and down

goes the King Conger.

Think Kong Bundy upset. Bobby the Brain.

He didn't upset.

I'm not upset. I'm not upset. I just

want to make sure he gets a fair shake

in there. He can control himself.

Trouble staying in his seat.

Oh, I have an investment in this man. I

don't want to get some short count from

some heck referee.

Complaining now. It was a nice drop

kick. their one foot caught him right

underneath the chin as Porky goes to

chat once more.

You know, I thought the people north of

the border were supposed to have some

class.

Well, they just calling it as they see

it, Marty. I'm surprised they haven't

start with Weasel.

Cena, don't start that now. They have a

whole the whole joint doing it because

usually there's all kinds of signs and

derogatory statements about you.

Everybody in the history of this world

that has ever been powerful, has ever

been prominent, has ever done

accomplished anything, everybody knocked

because they're jealous.

You think that's a fact, Dave?

That's what's happening to me.

Wow, look at that close.

Oh, look at Tony.

Atlas tried to turn away from it but

didn't make it.

Did you know he's an outpatient at the

home for the terminally bewildered?

Who's that?

Tony.

King Kong Bunny.

No, Tony.

Could be all over right here. One, two,

Oh, what was that? Two and a half. Atlas

managed to get that shoulder up.

What was that, Monsoon? That was a lousy

count.

Well, I couldn't tell from my vantage

point, Bobby, looking at the monitor.

Atlas in a whole heap of trouble right

here in Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens.

Ah,

another awesome elbow.

Atlas coming right our way.

King Kong stepping right on his

throatless

trying to find a way out of here

[Applause]

to catch a break. Bobby de Brain is slow

gone.

Got out of his seat immediately.

Tony Atlas trying to regroup out here by

our table.

You can come back and sit down now.

[Music]

You are you going to continue to bail

out on me that way or what are you going

to do?

Well, let's put it this way. When you

have custommade clothes on from head to

foot,

the last thing you want is some

customade clothes.

Yes. Everything I have is customade.

The last thing you want is somebody with

sweaty paws put them on you just to try

to get a reputation. He'd love to get

his hands on me.

Atlas tried to get back in, but Bunny

was right there to meet him. And now

look at this maneuver here. That's a

Well, that could be that was close to

becoming a disqualification there.

Close, but no cigars. Well, it only

counts in hand grenades and horseshoes.

Atlas got to start to mount some kind of

offense here. This one's going to be

Fenito.

[Applause]

Obviously, King Kong Bundy getting a

whole lot more trouble out of Tony Atlas

than he anticipated. Bobby the Brain

Hean not too happy with the way things

are going right now in this match. But

we'll be back with the conclusion in

just a moment.

We're back wrestling fans and we're

about to go back for the conclusion.

Bobby,

you know, for the size of Bundy and uh

he has to get into a match more. He has

to three, four, five, 10 minutes into a

match before he really feels it. Why

didn't you join this match and proud of

Chris?

Let's go back to the conclusion of this

match up right now.

Legitimate question.

Atlas, look at the day's look on his

face. But that doesn't mean anything. He

looks like that a lot.

No, he doesn't look like that a lot.

Come on, referee. He's using those ropes

for leverage. Get him off of there.

Well, the referee's not going to be able

to maintain control in this match as

long as he tries to push Bundy away. You

can't push Bundy away. You've got to lay

a count on him.

Oh, look at the back of the head on King

Kong Bundy. You know how many men are

jealous at home wish they looked like

Bundy? Oh, please.

Going for the cover once again. One and

two.

Worst worst counting I've ever seen.

Worst officiating.

Couldn't keep the shoulders down there

for the three count.

You know, he's uh quickly becoming a

matinea idol. The women are all over the

United States and every place we go.

Bet they're waiting in line.

Well, there is no line, but they're

falling in love with them. You should

see the letters I get in the mail.

Sure. Big elbow and a cover once again.

One count, two count. Atlas gets that

left arm out of there. And Bundy has to

revert to a reverse chin lock here.

Making Atlas pay for all carry all the

weight.

I can hardly see Atlas's face.

And that's that's when it looks the

best.

Referee checking the arm, but it's up in

the air. He's got a got a ring on.

Very dangerous to go on the side with a

ring. I'm surprised the referee let him

get away with that. Another

oversight on his part, probably doesn't

even have the brains to get undressed.

Bundy squeezing for all he's worth. Have

you ever gone in the ring with any

jewelry on? Never.

Did you ever wear a long robe?

Yes.

Did you ever forget your trunks?

No. Could happen though, couldn't it?

I've seen it happen. Yes.

On a number of occasions.

[Applause]

Bundy in control of this matchup.

As we stated earlier, Atlas must mount

some kind of offense here before he runs

out of gas.

Well, he's looking for the answer man

right now. Big guys wearing him down.

Look at the legs on Bundy. Must have at

least 35 36 in thighs.

Shot to the back of the neck. That won't

hurt Tony an awful lot.

That will. Nice elbow. Well placed. You

know, Bundy's just not a 480lb man. He

uses his money. He knows how to use his

Oh, big splash and Atlas right out of

the way.

Atlas pulling the blanket out from

underneath King Kong Bundy. And here

comes some offense. Couple of big right

hands and another one right in the

kisser.

Atlas really winding up here. Roundhouse

double shot there.

Big headundy.

The big guy's reeling and the brain is

getting nervous.

Watch out.

Avalanche perhaps coming up. Oh no, it's

a headbutt out of the corner by Atlas.

Tony Atlas should have went for the

cover right there.

Had the big guy reeling. The referee

should disqualify him right now for

using his fist for what? Reversal. Lam

is in. Oh, there's the avalanche. He

nailed it that time.

Ring down the curtain. This

not the 50.

I knew it. My man did it.

Tony Atlas missing a golden opportunity

pays the price as the King Conger laid

the avalanche on him. Let's get the

official word.

The winner of the match, King Kong

Bundy.

I'll say it again. The winner of the

match, King Kong Bundy.

When I get him in the ring,

a you had your chance at Hulk Hogan

during Wrestlemania 2 was not too

successful. Let's go back and take that

man.

How he was successful right here.

Atlas whipped into the corner. There's

the avalanche knocking all the air out

of poor Mr. USA who tumbles down like a

big oak tree.

Very hard to get out of the way of Bundy

cuz he's so massive. That's one of the

weapons we use.

Very impressive.

Drop that big elbow then lays that 500

lb plus on your chest. Very difficult

difficult to get up from that.

Mr. USA doesn't look too powerful now,

does he?

Impressive victory. I give credit where

credit is due. King Conger on the

victory here in Toronto. Don't go away.

Cardinal mistake made by Mr. USA. Tony

Atlas had an opportunity to put your guy

away. Bobby, didn't take advantage of

it.

Now, I'm going to ask you something.

And let me let me let me let me say this

before I lose train of thought of it.

You know, you're uh when you're sitting

down there at the commentator's table

with me, you're supposed to be

impartial. You were cheering during that

match. Did you realize that?

Yes.

He's my man.

He's your man.

Can't I just if if if 25,000 humanoids

can sit there with popcorn in their

mouth and yell, why can't I?

Well, as long as you don't get

physically involved, I guess. I told you

Bundy was going to win that match. I'm

not Your host doesn't lie to you.

Doesn't lie to you.

Well,

what happened to the tag team? Why have

they broke Why have you seen fit to

break them up?

They're not broken up.

They're still the team that can't be

slammed. And you're going to see a lot

more of Stu and Bundy.

I'm sure

see a lot less of you, though.

[Music]

Well, wrestling fans, that wraps up

another week here on Prime Time. You

made it through another week, Bobby.

I've made it through another week.

Eventually, you people are going to be

able to see Andre the Giant over at

Renereck hanging out in the backyard.

I'll tell you what, if the suspension is

in fact on, I will make sure that I go

to the archives and find some tapes of

Andre the Giant so that the wrestling

fans can not will not be deprived of

seeing this man. You know, week after

week, I've been out here and I've been

kind of low-key and sitting back and

relaxing. I've been trying to do my job

as host as good as I can do it. But you

think you're going to sit out here and

embarrass me and show tapes of Andre the

Giant and try to ridicule me out here in

Monsoon. You are badly mistaken. I am

Bobby the Brain Heing. Before I am done

here, you'll be out of work. You'll be

suspended. You and the Giant will be

some place doing something. Next week,

you're going to see a different Bobby

Heenan out here. I'm not going to take

any more of this garbage from anybody.

Maybe. Maybe next week, we won't see any

Bobby Heenan out here. Who knows? Yes,

you will. Next week, wrestling fans, our

matches will come all direct to you from

the famous or infamous Boston Gardens,

however you want to have it. Our special

feature, six-man tag team action,

putting on the wrestling tights,

manager, luscious Johnny Valiant,

teaming up with Brutus Beefcake and the

Hammer, Greg the Hammer Valentine. Their

opponents, Pedro Morales, Danny Spivey

the Golden Boy, and Davy Boy Smith.

Plenty of action personified as always

here on Prime Time Wrestling. And don't

forget wrestling fans, TNT every

Wednesday and All-American every Sunday.

All that wrestling action featuring the

superstars of the World Wrestling

Federation. And you can bet wrestling

fans that we will continue to bring you

Andre the Giant in the weeks and months

to come gerilla from the possibly dead

body of the so long.
