6-Man Tag Match

The main event featured the first teaming of Johnny Barend, Ripper Collins, and Curtis Iaukea, who called themselves “RIOT SQUAD INC.”, against the team of Ken Hollis, Karl Gotch, and Rocky Hunter. Hunter took the place of Jerry London, who was unable to wrestle due to an injury.

What made this match interesting was the fact that Barend and Iaukea were bitter enemies against each other in the past years. According to Barend, he and Iaukea came to a business agreement and put their differences aside.

The rabid crowd goes wild.
