We are in Wheeling, West Virginia. Vince says it's the birthplace of Bayer aspirin.
Vince McMahon, Macho Man Randy Savage and Roddy Piper are on commentary. Vince offers him aspirin. Macho says he was hoping for relief from Jake and says it doesn't look like it will happen. Piper says this is a hard pill to swallow. He says he's not sugar coated and says he doesn't go down so easy.
Sid Justice vs Col. Mustafa
Adnan is with Mustafa. I have no idea what purpose Mustafa and Adnan serve now that Sarge is trying to go face and won't be with them anymore. Sid says it's a personal thing between him and Jake now.
Adnan spits at Sid. Mustafa hits weak shots from behind. Sid tells him to hit him again. Sid boots Mustafa and hits a powerbomb for the win.
Thoughts: Sid won with 2 moves here in a total burial of Mustafa.
Adnan hits Sid from behind. Sid cranks on Mustafa's head then powerbombs him.

Hulk says he's seen the casket and says Paul would have to dig a hole the size of the football field and the grave would need to be so big to fit the Hulkamaniacs.

Bret Hart vs The Mountie
This is a non-title match. Bret gives a fan his sunglasses. The Mountie gets on the mic. He calls Bret a greaseball and says he knows why it's not a title match. He says he wants Bret to tell all the hillbillies why. Mountie asks if Bret is yellow or a gutless coward. Bret goes out and asks for the mic. Bret says he could never give a title match to a jailbird. Jimmy Hart nails Bret with a water bucket and Mountie uses his shock stick on Bret. He sticks it on Bret several times then poses.
Thoughts: This never got started but it did get the Mountie/Hart feud going. It's 1991. I'm not surprised we never got the advertised match.
WWF Event Center
Sean Mooney says Mountie's behavior was despicable. Skinner, Col Mustafa, The Berzeker and Big Bully Busick ddo a promo. Mustafa says he will show he's the real survivor.

Vince runs down next week's show. He says Bret is standing under his own power in the back. Ric Flair faces Jim Neidhart next week. Jim says Flair is a self-proclaimed champ. Jim says Flair hasn't seen anything yet. He says he will run over his blonde head. Bobby Heenan and Ric Flair talk. Heenan says Anvil is nuts and had shock treatment. Flair says he's the real champ and he likes crazy.
Overall thoughts: This was all Survivor Series hype here as it should be. The big show is 25 days away and I think the card is pretty much set. We didn't get Bret vs Mountie which isn't a shock but at least there was an angle. Sid vs Mustafa wasn't much. We did get some fun Survivor Series team promo's though and I'm interested to see if we actually get Neidhart vs Flair next week. I liked it but most people probably wouldn't, so I wouldn't recommend it. There was little quality wrestling on this one.
