Lance Russell and Dave Brown are calling the action, originating from the WMC-TV5 studio in Memphis, Tennessee.
Brown talks with Scott Bowden, who says PG-13 are not in the same league as the Rock N’ Roll Express. He shows footage of the feud earlier in the year between the two teams to make it seem like the Express dominated it.
Corey Maclin is going solo today for this episode, taped from the Nashville Fairgrounds in Nashville, Tennessee. The temporary switch out of the WMC-TV5 studio is nice because this venue is bigger and has more energy. You can also see cigarette smoke wafting from the crowd on numerous occasions too as this was a time before indoor smoking bans. And in a weird aesthetic, the promotion uses a white picket fence for a guardrail.
Lance Russell and Corey Maclin are in the booth for today’s show, which is a special “on the road” broadcast because of repairs being made to the WMC-TV5 studio. The matches on this show come from the November 13 card in Memphis.

–Gene Okerlund interviews WCW Champion Hulk Hogan in a dark room. Hogan says he misses Andre the Giant and how it was unfair the Pontiac Silverdome did not chant Andre’s name. He does his best to act dramatic, sniffing Andre’s old shirt, as he says he felt Andre’s presence when the Giant threw the shirt at him at Bash at the Beach and that rumors of Andre having a son were true. Hogan concludes by saying that the time has come to rise and face the challenge of the Giant again and to do so he will have to fight through the Dungeon of Doom. That journey will start on next week’s Main Event.
