This allowed Santana recovery time and when Martel finally turned around he was met with a dropkick to the mouth. Over the next three or four minutes Santana was the one getting all the near falls. Santana hit the Flying Forearm on Martel, however Santana was still in a lot of pain and he couldn’t make the cover.

Backstage Mooney was with a very, very, confident Slick, Slick was with his newest client Yokozuna. Slick presented Yoko as a very dominant force and posed the question who could beat him?

Yoko had his second match in the WWF as he took on the Birdman Koko. B Ware, now Koko is a veteran and he isn't a pushover by any means but nothing he did seemed to phase Yoko who finally had enough and buried Koko with the Banzai Drop to get the win.

Texas Tornado was backstage with Mooney, Tornado said time seems to be in slow motion as it ticks down to win he will have Rick Martel one on one at the KOTR.

Tornado was in the main event and he took on Crush who was in singles action. Mr. Fuji wasn't with him and that was due to the fact he and Muta were watching tapes of Ricky Steamboat to prepare for the KOTR. Crush showed some flashes but they weren't enough as Tornado wore him down and finished him off with The Claw to get the win.

The match was an even affair until Mr. Perfect stuck his noise in Hart's business, Perfect distracted Hart long enough to allow Martel to sneak up on Bret and roll him up for the 1-2-3.

After the result Perfect stood in the ramp way and thought it was funny that he cost Bret a shot at the KOTR. However that changed as WWF President Rowdy Piper came out from the back. Piper said if Mr. Perfect does not advance to the semi-finals of the KOTR then he would have to defend the WWF Intercontinental Title against Bret Hart at the KOTR.

Now it will be Perfect defending the IC against Bret Hart at KOTR.

The main event for the night was Typhoon with Jimmy Hart taking on Hulk Hogan. Typhoon used his weight to dictate a good portion of the match, however as he usually does Hogan made his comeback and finished Typhoon off with the Legdrop to get the victory.

Great PPV, even though Bret lost but at least it was a credible loss and losing to HBK ain't bad.

Thanks for all the feedback, quick note the last show was Wrestling Challenge I don't know why I put Prime Time Wrestling

Haku and Jim Neidhart were up next and the two bigmen actually put on a decent match. Haku scored the win following a vicious Thrust Kick.

Jimmy Hart was with The Nasty Boys backstage to be interview by Sean Mooney. Hart said his overreacted when he heard the match for the King of The Ring, after thinking on it because The Nasty's are the baddest team around and it fits into their plans and at KOTR L.O.D will get nastysized.

L.O.D took on The Nasty's but it was singles action as Hawk took on Brian Knobbs. This turned out to be a good match as Knobbs got the victory following some help from Hart.

Fuji was back again, this team with Muta who faced The Big Bossman in the first round of the KOTR. Muta was firing away but the Bossman wasn't backing down as the two men went toe-to-toe the entire match. The end of the match came when The Mountie came down to ringside and picked up the nightstick of the Bossman, Bossman saw this and yelled at The Mountie, this allowed Muta to roll up the Bossman 1-2-3 to advance.

The last annoucement was the actual King of The Ring field and the first round matches, with three of those matches schuduled for tonight.

Davey Boy Smith vs Rick Martel

Texas Tornado vs Dino Bravo

Jake Roberts vs Jimmy Snuka

Mr. Perfect vs Greg Valentine

Tito Santana vs The Mountie

Muta vs Big Boosman

Ricky Steamboat vs Haku

Speaking of King of The Ring, the first round match took place as Haku took on Ricky Steamboat. Haku dominated most of the match due to his strength and the fact Steamboat was a little worn out after the long match with Muta. However Steamboat pulled through and picked up the victory following the Flying Crossbody off the top rope.

Jimmy Hart and The Mountie were backstage with Gene Okerlund. Hart was nerve wrecked because of Piper's annoucement about L.O.D and the Nasty Boys. Mountie finally calmed Hart down and they got to business. They talked about Tito Santana and how Mountie will defeat him just like he did at Wrestlemania VII. Before they were done they got in some negative comments about The Big Bossman

This was the second of three schuduled first round matches in the King of The Ring, as The Mountie with Jimmy Hart took on Tito Santana. Mountie was right this was a Wrestlemania VII rematch but he was wrong about the outcome of the match was Tito hit the Flying Forearm and pinned 1-2-3, to advance and get the win.

Bret Hart was backstage with Okerlund. He talked about how big of an oppurtunity that the King of The Ring was and about his opponent in the 1st round The Warlord. He said he was focused on the Warlord for the most part but he still had Mr. Perfect on his mind and intends to get revenge for SNME.

A confident Slick led The Warlord to the ring for the last first round match of the night, I would be confident too if I managed someone as big and powerful as The Warlord. Most of the match Hart was on the defensive as Warlord was hitting everything he had, but Hart showed get toughness by not gettting beat and as Warlord finally slipped up Hart capatilized Rolling up Warlord with a quick small package and getting the 3 count.

Okerlund was backstage with Ravishing Rick Rude who was preparing for his World Title Shot against Hulk Hogan. Rude said finally Hogan stopped ducking and finally he would win the World Title.

The main event was here, a confident Rude made his way to the ring first,revealing some trunks with Hogan layed out on the back. Hogan made his way out to a thunderous ovation. The match started with Rude on top as he jumped Hogan. Rude maintained this for most of the match getting near fall after near fall. Rude finally softened Hogan enough where he called for the end. Rude set Hogan up and hit The Rude Awakening, and covered Hogan for the 1-2-2.5 Hogan kicked out. Rude was in shock as Hogan hulked up. Hogan hit Rude with 3 punches and sent him off the ropes and hit a back body drop. Rude was smart enough to roll out of the ring. Hogan followed suit and the two men brawled on the outside. With the ref nearing a 10 count Rude ducked a clothesline and Hogan ran smack into the steel pole. Rude got into the ring at 9 and the ref reached 10 to give Rude a countout victory.

Due to the fact I've been real busy as of late SNME will be shorter then it would be, I didn't want to delay it so I decided to make the results shorter

Haku tagged Perfect and Perfect worked over Owen, Perfect baited Bret into the ring a few times which led to double and triple teamming on Owen. Perfect tagged in The Barbarian who used his power to throw Owen around the ring. After some near falls Haku was tagged back in and continued the assualt on Owen.

Millon Dollar Title Match

Ted DiBiase© w/Sensational Sherri vs Virgil

Both men started the match in the center of the ring talking trash back and forth to each other. DiBiase finally slapped Virgil and Virgil's response was a slap back followed up by rights and lefts. Virgil was a man on a mission and it showed as he dominated DiBiase in the beginning. Virgil looked particulary impressive in a sequence in which he hit a clothesline, dropkick, and a back body drop, DiBiase went to outside to break the momentum. Vitgil followed and slammed DiBiase's head into the ring. The tide of the match turned when DiBiase whipped Virgil into the steel steps. Virgil almost got counted out as he barely made his way back into the ring at 8. DiBiase went to work as he systematicaly took Virgil apart. The attack was well calculated and every move had a purpose as DiBiase didn't not waste a motion. Virgil was wearing down and it showed as he was barely kicking out of DiBiase's pin attempts. Despite this Virgil showed a lot of heart and fought his way back, however both men's chances of winning were put on hold when Virgil accidently ran into the ref. Virgil got up first and put a sleeper on DiBiase, DiBiase was out but so was the ref. Seeing her man in trouble Sherri came in the ring and hit Virgil with a loaded purse, it was loaded cause Virgil fell quickly. Sherre put DiBiase's arm over Virgil and got out of the ring. The ref came back in and counted 1-2-3 to give DiBiase the win.

The Model Challenge: Rick Martel vs The Texas Tornado

The ring was setup as a mini run-way as the two men made their way to ringside. Martel was wearing a tennis outfit (the one he would at the 1992 Summerslam) while Tornado was in his ring gear. Martel was up first and did his walking up and down the ring to boos from the fans. Tornado was next and every move he made was greeted by cheers from the fans. Just as The Tornado was going to be announced as the winner Martel picked up his can of arrogance and hit Tornado in the head with it, after a few boots Martel locked Tornado in the Boston Crab which he held on until various officals finally forced him to break it.

WWF Tag Team Title Match

The Nasty Boys© w/Jimmy Hart vs The Legion of Doom

The two teams brawled, brawled, and brawled some more. The teams brawled before the bell rung. Finally the bell rung but the two teams were still brawling. L.O.D was gonna do everything to get the belts and the Nasty's were gonna do everything to keep them. Eventually the Nasty's gained the upper hand as they went to work on Hawk. You name it, the Nasty's did every illegial move in the rule book. There wasn't too much thought to the Nasty's attack, it was strike and cheat, anything to keep the belts. The stragety proved to be effect as they were wearing Hawk down and it was a matter of time before the finished him off. Hawk had a say in that and he made a mini-comeback which allowed him to tag a fresh and rested Animal into the ring. Animal just overpowered the Nasty's with his strength. Once Hawk regained some strength he was tagged in as L.O.D set-up Sags for the Doomsday Device, Hawk came off and hit the clothesline, he covered Sags for the 1-2-and then a megaphone crashed down on Hawk. Jimmy Hart had made his way into the ring and hit Hawk before the ref could get to 3 which caused a DQ. The Nasty's hightailed but forgot about Jimmy Hart who received the Doomsday Device for his troubles.

The Ultimate Warrior vs The Undertaker w/Paul Bearer

The Warrior came out as he usually does 100 miles an hour while The Undertaker went more like 10 miles an hour. When he did came out Taker has a big body bag with him. The Warrior was hitting the Taker with everything but it didn't seem to phase him. Finally Taker had enough and started to choke the Warrior repeatedly always breaking the count at 4. Taker showed great quickness for a big man with his flying clothesline and walking the rope holding Warrior's arm as he drovehis fist into the arm. Throughout the match Taker's attack mainly consisted of punches and chokes. Taker lifted Warrior with one hand and chokeslamed him to the mat and got a near 3 count. Taker signaled for the end and lifted Warrior and hit The Tombstone, Taker covered but the Warrior kicked out and got to the ropes. Warrior started to shake his ropes and now he was impervious to pain. Warrior made a cmeback and was finally starting to phase the Undertaker. Now Warrior called for the end and hit the Gorilla Press and hit it. This led to Jake Roberts coming to the ring and jumping the The Warrior which led to a DQ. Taker and Roberts worked on the Warrior and put him in the body bag and left.

Ricky The Drago Steamboat vs Muta w/Mr. Fuji

This was the open challenge laid down by Mr. Fuji to anyone who would accept, Steamboat did and now we have a match. The match was an outstanding one and as men gave a great performance and a great display of wrestling and counter wrestling. The match went back and forth with Steamboat dominating the early parts of the match. Steamboat used his arm-drags, chops, and dropkicks among other moves to gain the advantage. Muta wasshowed that he was up to the challenge as he came back displaying his great martial arts and aerial ability. Both men got many near falls and the match had the fans into it from the start. The two men alos showed that they were well conditioned as the match went well over twenty minutes. In the end Steamboat reversed a Muta move and rolled him up to get the 1-2-3 and the victory which dealt Muta his first lost. Both men had nothing to be ashamed of and losing to Steamboat isn't a bad loss. Steamboat extended his hand out to Muta in a show of Respect. Muta's response was green mist to the face of Steamboat followed by a roundhouse kick. Muta and Fuji left to the boos of the crowd.

Hulk Hogan & Bob Backlund vs Ravishing Rick Rude, Sgt. Slaughter, & Col. Mustafa w/General Adnan.

Hogan and Backlund started off the match in control as the combination of Hogan's power and Backlunds wrestling ability keep the three men off balance. Rude, Slaughter and Mustafa had a plan coming in and that was to work on Backlund who was seen as the weak link which would leave Hogan 3 on 1. Well that strategy happened as Backlund got into the wrong corner and the three men went to work on win. The focus of the attack was the back and neck area. Rude worked on the neck first and tagged Slaughter who used his bulk to work on the back of Backlund. Mustafa came in and continued the work that Rude and Slaughter started. Backlund was wearing down and Slaughter seemed to have put the finishing touches on Backlund as he put him in a bearhug. Seeing enough of this 3 on 1 Hogan came in the ring and clotheslined Slaughter and even gave Rude and Mustafa some shots. What this allowed was Backlund to crawl over and tag Hogan while Slaughter tagged Mustafa. Of course as he usually did Hogan cleaned house and dominated. In the end it was Hogan and Rude, Rude went for the Rude Awakening but Hogan overpowered him, sent him to the ropes, hit the big boot and followed up with the Legdrop and covered Rude 1-2-3 for the win. After the match Slaughter, Mustafa, and Adnan came into the ring and jumped Hogan and Backlund. Rude got the WWF Title and hit Hogan in the head with it. After some initial celebrations Hogan hulked up and cleared everyone out of the ring but Hogan was mad.

Hogan was so mad that he picked up a mic and told Rude if you want this title so bad come and get because on Prime Time Wrestling it's gonna be Rude vs Hogan for the title if Rude would accepted. Rude noded his head yes and Monday they will go at it.
