UWF Fury Hour: Episode 21

UWF Fury Hour Episode 21, 18th March 1991

Craig and Bruno ensure us tonight will be exciting - I'll be the judge of that!



Chris Michaels vs Captain Badd
Michaels is called a "newcomer". Maybe this non-jobber version. Apparently, he was formerly in the military or something - hence he's now wearing camp pants and waving the American flag in the midst of a big 'Support the Troops' exploitation push.


Winner = Chris Michaels via top-rope dropkick and weird count from the referee

Herb asks the kid what kind of success he hopes to have in the UWF, so he just cuts some stupid patriotic USA promo that has absolutely nothing to do with what Herb asked.


Ask The Wrestlers

He started out in Kansas and was trained by some guy that is now blackballed - well, that's actually quite interesting. And of course he's not married! But then again, he strikes me as the type of dude to lie about that...


The Power Twins (w/Rick Golden) vs Brian Donahue & Carmine Albano
Some young people scale the fence - well, walk over the hotel rope - to yell at The Power Twins.


Winners = The Power Twins via Power Ending

Captain Lou's Corner
Today's guests are The Power Twins and they want you to know they are the only identical twins in pro-wrestling today. I know this because it is all they keep saying. Albano can't get their names right because he is stupid.


Herb is still shilling the 'Dangerous' Dan Spivey t-shirt. He was defeated by Lex Luger at the most recent WCW PPV, while Nikita Koloff watched from the front row.

Don Muraco vs Dusty Wolfe
Not sure how little I care about this. Apparently it's very little.

Winner = Don Muraco via inverted piledriver

'Dr. Death' Steve Williams comes out and stomps Muraco for no reason, so Orndorff comes out brandishing a plank of wood like he's my Uncle Alan 'Hacksaw' Jim Duggan.


Herb catches up with 'Dr. Death', who wants to talk about men eating raw meat or something...


Wet N' Wild vs 'Cowboy' Bob Orton & Cactus Jack
The most interesting part of this match is Sunny Beach and Cactus Jack fighting over a surfboard, while Jack does the most blatant and silly blade job.

Don't get blood on the nice concrete carpet!

Draw via double disqualification or something

Just as they are announcing the result, the video is cut off... and then I get highlights of the lumberjack match again!

Thoughts:

  • More people in wrestling should fight over surfboards. And Skateboards.
  • In fact, Herb should bring in a skateboarder to feud with Sunny Beach - Skateboard vs Surfboard!
