YEAR FOUR, CARD 19
Leon County Civic Center – Tallahassee
Commissioner Chad came to ringside and announced that at the next card, there would be a three-way dance for the tag titles between the champion Fabulous Kangaroos and former champs Rikidozan and Giant Baba and the Road Warriors. Then Bobby Heenan came out to say that Johnny Valiant had left BCW to be with his injured brother Jimmy, but the remainder of the Heenan family would still be targeting Timber. No sooner did Heenan leave than U.S. champ Don Leo Jonathan came out to say that Buff Bagwell had asked for a title shot, and since he was a fighting champ, he was willing to give him the shot on the card tonight. That somewhat cheered up the fans in Tallahassee, who were disappointed that the three-way dance and the world heavyweight title would be contested on the next card at the Bithloplex. Jonathan went on to say he’d represent the belt at every card, if need be.
Bobo Brazil d. S.D. Jones using his COCOA BUTT. Jones’ former tag-team partner, Virgil, came to ringside, then shook his head as Jones got pinned and left. Jones did not look happy when he saw Virgil leaving in disgust.
The Midnight Express (w/ Jim Cornette) made quick work of S+S, winning by countout when a distracted ref failed to see Bobby Eaton give a vicious clothesline to Larry Sharpe outside the ring, preventing his return to action.
Brad Armstrong came to ringside, took the mike and called out Buff Bagwell and Steve Corino, saying he believed that they were behind the attack that sidelined he and his father before Tag-o-Rama. Corino came to ringside and motioned for he and Armstrong to wrestle.
Steve Corino d. Brad Armstrong by countout when Armstrong was waylaid outside the ring by Buff Bagwell, who then waved in a dismissive manner toward Corino before leaving. Corino appeared confused as to the turn of events.
“Dr. Death” Steve Williams d. the Terrible Turk in a tough-guy, no-DQ chain match after taking out the Turk with his OKLAHOMA STAMPEDE. The Terrible Turk seemed to have no answer for the determined Williams.
The Hennigs and the Vachons (w/ Capt. Lou Albano) wrestled to a double DQ outside the ring when Butcher Vachon and Curt Hennig went at each other with whatever was available at ringside. After the ref called for the bell, Larry Hennig took out Mad Dog Vachon and Albano with his AXE, then helped Curt give Butcher Vachon a piledriver onto the concrete floor, seriously injuring him.
Don Leo Jonathan retained his U.S. title by d. Buff Bagwell using his MORMON SWING. After the match was over, a wrestler came to ringside and attacked Jonathan, giving him a piledriver with the assistance of Bagwell. Many in the crowd recognized him as “The Crippler” Ray Stevens, who left with Bagwell afterward. There was no sign of Steve Corino during the match.
In an Invasion qualifying match, Rick Rude d. Timber, pinning him following a piledriver. Timber did a great job of battling the man he once tag-teamed with to a standstill in the middle part of the match, even escaping a RUDE AWAKENING. Rude finally got the advantage and the win. Bobby Heenan and Don Muraco, with reasons to dislike both men, came to ringside, but didn’t interfere once Commissioner Chad sent extra security to ringside.
“Bullet” Bob Armstrong d. world heavyweight champion Jimmy Snuka in a nontitle match due to interference by Harley Race. Both Snuka and Armstrong ended up outside the ring at one point, and Race got in a cheap shot while the referee, who had been knocked down as the two went outside the ring, was recovering. Armstrong was then able to roll Snuka back into the ring and use his SLEEPER for the victory. Afterward, Race was seen laughing and making the sign of the title belt.

YEAR FOUR, CARD 20
Bithloplex
“The Crippler” Ray Stevens (w/ Buff Bagwell) made his official debut in BCW by d. Johnny Rodz, pinning him after a double underhook suplex. Afterward, Stevens and Bagwell were interviewed by Bill Apter for his “Hot Seat” segment. Stevens said he didn’t care about U.S. champ Don Leo Jonathan, whom he attacked at the last card. He said he came to BCW to team with Bagwell and win some tag belts. The two then laughed and left the ring together.
The Iron Sheik and the Terrible Turk came to ringside and called out “Dr. Death” Steve Williams. The Sheik said Williams might have gotten lucky and beat the Terrible Turk, but he was still “nothing.” Williams came out with tag-team partner Ted DiBiase and challenged them to a tag match – with no DQ!
“Dr. Death” Steve Williams and Ted DiBiase ended up in a double DQ with the Iron Sheik and the Terrible Turk as all four men were involved in the ring after DiBiase broke up the Iron Sheik’s CAMEL CLUTCH on Williams. DiBiase and Williams dominated most of the match, and only the Sheik’s interference kept them from pinning the Terrible Turk, who took a huge beating throughout.
Ivan Koloff came out, pointed at the departing Williams and claimed he would beat “Dr. Death” like a drum in the tough-guy finale. That brought out old rival Diamond Dallas Page, who challenged Koloff to a no-DQ match right then!
Ivan Koloff d. Diamond Dallas Page using his RUSSIAN BEAR HUG. Williams came to ringside to distract Koloff, but he was hit from behind by the Iron Sheik. That brawl distracted Page, and he fell victim to Koloff yet again.
U.S. heavyweight champion Don Leo Jonathan retained his title by d. George Hackenschmidt in a great, long match. Jonathan connected with his MORMON SWING a second time to get the pin. Earlier, he had to fight out of Hackenschmidt’s RUSSIAN BEAR HUG.
Curt Hennig d. Mad Dog Vachon (w/ Capt. Lou Albano) using a sleeper. When Albano tried to interfere in the match, Larry Hennig came down to ringside. Albano backed off, but taunted Hennig by saying, “You’ll be gone after Invasion. Who will protect your boy then?” To which Hennig replied, “Who said you’ll be here after Invasion?”
Commissioner Chad came out to explain about the triple-threat tag match. He said it would be like a regular triple-threat match, except that a person can tag out to a teammate at any time. Whoever makes the pin, that team will become the world tag-team champions.
The Road Warriors (w/ Paul Ellering) d. the Fabulous Kangaroos (w/ “Wild” Red Berry) and Giant Baba and Rikidozan to recapture the BCW world tag-team belts in an amazing three-way-dance match. The end came as the Warriors took out Rikidozan with the DOOMSDAY DEVICE. The Kangaroos’ Al Costello was too groggy to break up the pin, and Ellering distracted Giant Baba, Roy Heffernan and Berry by feigning that he was going to attack them with a chair, although he got pummeled for his efforts. The Kangaroos were furious afterward that they lost the title without being pinned. The victory means the Warriors will represent BCW as the tag champs at Invasion’s War Games.
The Armstrongs d. Playboy Buddy Rose and Koko B. Ware in an Invasion qualifying match when Bob Armstrong caught Ware with a cross body block. The Armstrongs pretty much controlled the match, and Rose was unable to make the save in time, meaning he and Ware will have their BCW careers on the line at the PPV.
Harley Race became the new BCW world heavyweight champion, d. Jimmy Snuka in a best-of-three-falls match, 2-1. In the first fall, the two were evenly matched until Race connected with his PILEDRIVER seemingly out of nowhere for a 1-0 lead. In the second fall, Snuka nailed Race with a SUPERFLY LEAP outside the ring. Race was unable to make the 10-count, while Snuka barely made it back into the ring. Both men appeared to be barely able to stand entering the third fall. Snuka eventually rallied, took control of the match and went for a SUPERFLY LEAP, but missed Race. Race then gave Snuka another PILEDRIVER to get the pin and capture the championship. An injured Snuka, who ended up tied with Ted DiBiase for the longest BCW world heavyweight title reign (21 cards), was helped from the ring as a weary Race celebrated.

YEAR FOUR, CARD 21
Eddie Graham Sports Stadium
Larry Zbyszko (w/ Bobby Heenan) returned from injury to d. Johnny Rodz with a knee smash. Zbyszko looked a little rusty and not fully recovered, but after the pin he yelled the names of “Snuka” and “Rude.”
The Armstrongs d. the Killer Bees in a very close match when Brad Armstrong connected on a cross-body block off the ropes against B. Brian Blair. The two sides were so evenly matched that a number of reversals occurred during the contest.
George Hackenschmidt came out and complained that he always seemed to get the short end of the stick in BCW. That statement brought out an angry Commissioner Chad, who pointed out that Hackenschmidt had a title shot at the last card and was not able to get the job done. Plus, he noted that Hackenschmidt had been a BCW tag champion in the past. What more could he want? Before Hackenschmidt could answer, the commissioner said he had something for him – a match with Ray “The Crippler” Stevens!
Ray Stevens (w/ Buff Bagwell) d. George Hackenschmidt following a dropkick when Bagwell held Hackenschmidt’s foot down during the pin. Afterward, Hackenschmidt pounded the mat in frustration.
U.S. champion Don Leo Jonathan d. Steve Corino via DQ in a nontitle match when Corino struck Jonathan with a chair. The long match saw Jonathan dominate, but have a hard time putting Corino away. For his part, Corino’s use of the chair was probably his most effective offensive weapon against Jonathan.
Bill Apter’s “Hot Seat” had new BCW world heavyweight champion Harley Race. Race said he told people Snuka would have to go – and he did. He said BCW couldn’t have a champion making the kind of mistake at Invasion that Snuka made in losing the title. Race also said that the last time he was in a group of wrestlers, things didn’t go so well, but now that he was champion, he might have to put together a “Four Horsemen” type faction to “protect the title.”
The Fabulous Kangaroos and “Wild” Red Berry d. the Tokyo Trio in a six-man tag match when Al Costello and Roy Heffernan executed a BOOMERANG on Rikidozan. The Tokyo Trio had control early and had Berry in the ring, but instead of Giant Baba finishing him with the NECKBREAKER DROP, he tagged in Jushin Liger, whose two pin attempts were broken up by the Kangaroos. Berry finally managed to tag out, and the Kangaroos went on to get the pin.
The BCW world tag-team champions the Road Warriors d. Playboy Buddy Rose and Koko B. Ware by DQ in a nontitle match when the Fabulous Kangaroos came out and threw Hawk into a steel post while he was outside the ring. Then they fled the scene before Animal could catch up to them. Rose and Ware appeared to be seeking a good workout of their skills ahead of their career-threatening match at Invasion, and the Warriors gave them that before the attack by the Kangaroos.
Bobo Brazil d. the Terrible Turk in an Invasion qualifying match when he pinned the Terrible Turk after a Bobo body slam. The Turk, who will have to wrestle for his BCW career at the PPV, did get his STRANGLEHOLD on Brazil during the match, but could not get the pin.
“Dr. Death” Steve Williams d. Ivan Koloff in a bloody barbed-wire cage match to be crowned the tough guy of BCW. Koloff got the advantage early by running Williams into the barbed wire, but eventually Williams gained the momentum, connected on two backdrop drivers and then finished off Koloff with his OKLAHOMA STAMPEDE. Officials had to help both men to the back afterward.

YEAR FOUR, CARD 22
Hollywood Sportatorium – Hollywood, Fla.
The Hennigs d. the Jersey Boys when Curt Hennig got the pin on Diamond Dallas Page following a dropkick. Page had been worn down by taking consecutive AXES from Larry Hennig, and Steve Corino was unable to prevent the pin because he was distracted by the appearance of former tag-team partner Buff Bagwell at ringside.
George Hackenschmidt d. Buff Bagwell (w/ Ray Stevens) via a BEARHUG. Hackenschmidt, who had been going through some challenging times, got Bagwell in the BEARHUG, only to have Stevens try to interfere. Hackenschmidt threw Stevens out of the ring, then put Bagwell back in the BEARHUG. Meanwhile, Steve Corino came to ringside and caned Stevens. Afterward, he tried to shake Hackenschmidt’s hand, but the Russian warrior ignored him and walked off.
Commissioner Chad came out to announce that an unusual request had been made. He said the Terrible Turk and the Iron Sheik had requested a match with the Fabulous Kangaroos, and he was going to give it to them "just to see what would happen."
The Fabulous Kangaroos (w/ “Wild” Red Berry) d. the Terrible Turk and the Iron Sheik by DQ when the Terrible Turk put his STRANGLEHOLD on Al Costello and would not break the hold. The self-proclaimed “Hitmen for Hire” appeared bent on injuring the Kangaroos, and Berry and company were quick to get going out of the ring after officials separated the Terrible Turk and Costello.
S.D. Jones came to ringside and called out Virgil. Jones claimed he was “not wrestling to his full ability” because his former partner was still in BCW, and therefore one of them had to go. He said he wanted a “winner take all” match, with the loser leaving BCW. Virgil came to ringside and accepted the challenge.
Virgil d. S.D. Jones by countout to keep his job in BCW. The two fought to the outside of the ring, then Virgil delivered a hard clothesline. As he crawled back into the ring, Jones slowly got up, looked at Virgil, then walked out on his BCW career!
Commissioner Chad came to ringside and called out Johnny Rodz. The commissioner said he felt like elevating someone, and therefore this was Rodz’s night, for he would get to wrestle the BCW heavyweight champ in a nontitle match. If Rodz won the match, he would get a shot at the title at a future card.
BCW world heavyweight champion Harley Race d. Johnny Rodz in a nontitle match, pinning him following a diving head butt. Rodz got in a shot or two on Race, then the champ dominated the match. Afterward, a fan ran to ringside to congratulate Race, and before security could get there, he gave Race a SUPERKICK. The fan ripped off his cap and BCW shirt, revealing BWF champ Shawn Michaels! He left the ringside area and escaped through the crowd as Race struggled to recover from the attack by his opponent at War Games.
Larry Zbyszko came to ringside and called out Commissioner Chad. He told the commissioner he wanted former Heenan family member Rick Rude brought to ringside so he could settle the score once and for all. Commissioner Chad agreed – then made the match a cage match at the end of the card!
The Midnight Express (w/ Jim Cornette) d. the Armstrongs, their tag partners at War Games, by DQ when Bob Armstrong, incensed at Cornette’s interference, took his racket and whacked Bobby Eaton with it. Officials quickly raced to ringside to separate the two teams before a bigger rumble occurred.
Don Muraco (w/ Bobby Heenan) d. Giant Baba (w/Rikidozan) by DQ in an Invasion qualifying match when Rikidozan belted Muraco while he was out of the ring. Up to that point, the match had been a long struggle between the two titans, with Muraco having a slight edge. Rikidozan’s interference was puzzling in that BCW’s first heavyweight champion, whose career will be on the line at Invasion, was not in trouble during that part of the match.
Larry Zbyszko d. Rick Rude in a cage match when he exited first after giving Rude his PILEDRIVER. Both men were bloody at the end. When Zbyszko left the cage and headed toward the back, he was attacked by Timber, who whacked him repeatedly with his barbed wire ax handle and then fled before Don Muraco could catch him. Zbyszko was seriously injured in the attack. The fans cheered their new rogue hero Timber as Bobby Heenan fumed.

YEAR FOUR, CARD 23
Vero Beach – Dodgertown
BCW world heavyweight champion Harley Race came to ringside and took up the microphone. He said BWF champ Shawn Michaels got in a cheap shot on him last time, but there would be nowhere to hide come the Invasion PPV and their cage match. He also announced that he had planned a workout with George Hackenschmidt at the end of the card because Hackenschmidt had asked Race to help him find out “what he’s really made of.”
Harker Dirge (w/ Sir Oliver Humperdink) made his BCW debut by d. George South using his DIRT NAP. Dirge and Humperdink made for a very odd-looking team, but it seemingly worked.
The Midnight Express (w/ Jim Cornette) d. Playboy Buddy Rose and Koko B. Ware when the connected on a VEG-O-MATIC against Rose. Ware and Rose put up a good fight throughout the match, perhaps signaling that they were ready to fight for their BCW careers at Invasion, but the Midnight Express proved to be too much.
Commissioner Chad came out and called Yukon Eric to the ring. He asked Eric where he’d been, and Eric replied, “Here and there, but I’m ready to compete for the BCW title now.” The commissioner said that despite Eric’s previous championship bouts, he’d have to earn a title shot, so he gave him Bob Armstrong, who beat Jimmy Snuka a few cards ago in a nontitle match when Snuka was the heavyweight champ.
Yukon Eric d. Bob Armstrong using a cross-body block off the turnbuckle. Armstrong gave a good match to Eric, who looked to be knocking off some ring rust. In the end, his talent won out over a game Armstrong. The two shook hands after the match.
“Dr. Death” Steve Williams and Ted DiBiase d. the Terrible Turk and the Iron Sheik by DQ when the Terrible Turk applied his STRANGLEHOLD to DiBiase outside the ring, injuring him before officials could separate the two, while Williams battled the Iron Sheik on the other side of the ring.
Mad Dog Vachon came out and said that Butcher Vachon was too injured to wrestle for his career at Invasion, so he had picked a new partner to tag with him – Captain Lou Albano, his manager! Albano looked a bit stunned at the proposal. Vachon also said that in case he was leaving BCW, he wanted to destroy Curt Hennig “one more time” Hennig came to ringside to answer the challenge.
Mad Dog Vachon (w/ Capt. Lou Albano) d. Curt Hennig by DQ when Larry Hennig slammed Vachon outside the ring to the concrete floor. Curt Hennig had the match nearly won earlier via his HENNIG PLEX, but Albano interfered with the ref’s count. Later, Larry Hennig snuck to ringside to return the interference favor.
In a nontitle match, Rikidozan and Giant Baba (w/ Jushin Liger) d. BCW world tag-team champions the Road Warriors (w/ Paul Ellering) when Rikidozan caught Animal with a quick sunset flip and a pin, aided by the fact that, unseen by the ref, Liger had hit Animal in the back of the head from the edge of the mat. Rikidozan did not tag in Baba during the match. Afterward, the Road Warriors were visibly unhappy about the turn of events in their warmup to their War Games match.
Bobby Heenan and Don Muraco came out. Heenan said his “family” had been nearly wiped out about Timber, the Insane Lumberjack. Heenan said he realized Timber would be wrestling for his BCW career at Invasion, but he and Muraco wanted to end it tonight! Timber came to the ring to answer the challenge.
Don Muraco (w/ Bobby Heenan) d. Timber, pinning him after an over-the-shoulder backbreaker. Muraco also unleashed a couple of Asiatic Spikes during the match, which he mostly controlled, although Timber had his moments as well. Afterward, Muraco and Heenan put the boots to Timber until security broke it up.
BCW world heavyweight champion Harley Race d. George Hackenschmidt in a nontitle match when he caught Hackenschmidt with his PILEDRIVER. Hackenschmidt gave as good as he got in wrestling perhaps his best match of the year, and he had Race in trouble numerous times in what was supposed to be a warm-up match for Invasion.
As Race celebrated after the finish, four fans came over the rails. They turned out to be the Steiners and the Briscos, the two teams for BWF in the four-man tag elimination match at Invasion. As they threatened to get into the ring, a recovered Hackenschmidt came up from behind and put Race in the RUSSIAN BEAR HUG! As the Steiners and the Briscos fought off security, another man wearing a hoodie came over the rail, jumped into the ring and drilled Hackenschmidt with a punch. He then threw back his hood to reveal five-time former BCW U.S. champ and former Race teammate “Nature Boy” Buddy Rogers! Hackenschmidt, the Briscos and the Steiners fled the scene as Rogers helped Race back to his feet while the crowd went wild at the apparent return to BCW of the “Nature Boy.”
