Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/08/wwf-superstars-of-wrestling-6131992.html
Next week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/09/wwf-superstars-of-wrestling-6271992.html
We are in Lexington, KY. Mr. Perfect and Vince McMahon are our hosts.
Vince says it's National Pest Control Month. They make bug puns and run down the show.
The Legion of Doom vs Barry Hardy and Tom Bennett
The jobbers get nailed before it starts. Hawk hits a gutwrench suplex and fist drops Tom. Hawk standing dropkicks him. Animal powerslams Tom and elbow drops him. The Beverly Brothers and The Genius do an inset promo. They say they always celebrate Father's Day but the LOD celebrate it on Mother's Day. Beau says they are mama's boys.
Animal lariats Barry then corner lariats him. Barry takes a doomsday device and is pinned.
Thoughts: It was all squash like usual and not too much of note. The jobbers got nothing in.
The LOD bring a fan in the ring and celebrate with him.
WWF Update
Mean Gene shills WWF ice cream bars. We see Macho Man's interview with Gene from last week. Ric Flair and Mr. Perfect respond. Perfect says Macho can say whatever he wants but he can't be the expertise of Flair. Flair says Macho is living on borrowed time and wearing his title belt. He says it's his destiny to be WWF champ again.
Papa Shango vs Chris Hahn
We actually see Chris enter through the entrance area, which we never see. He looks cautious and scared to get in the ring. Chris finally enters with his hat and towel on. Chris' hand then catches on fire somehow due to Papa's curses. Chris then runs to the back.
Thoughts: There's no explaining this. If Papa actually used this against main eventers he could be the champ forever.
WWF Event Center
This is brought to us by ICOPRO. Crush does a promo. He says he loves to crush things and says things are bigger and tougher to crush. He says this is where you will find the biggest and toughest competition period. He says he's not the nicest or friendliest but he's a fair man. He says anyone he faces will find out why he's called Crush.
The Nasty Boys and Jimmy Hart do a promo. Hart says The Nasty's can walk the walk and talk the talk. Saggs says they are the most winningest tag team and says they are coming for LOD and High Energy. Knobbs says they are coming for them too and say they take no prisoners and show no mercy. Knobbs says to take a walk on the wildside in Nastyville and get nastysized.
Sgt. Slaughter vs Red Tyler
Sarge boots and clubs him. Sarge hits boots to the gut. Jimmy Hart and The Mountie do an inset promo. Hart says Sarge felt the power of The Mountie. Mountie says to forget Father's Day as it will be the mother of all battles when they meet.
Sarge hits short arm lariats on Red then lariats him. Sarge has the pin but lifts Red up for some reason. Sarge then wins with the cobra clutch.
Thoughts: It wasn't that good. Sarge just did basic strikes here and him pulling up Red from the pin for more punishment wasn't good face work.
They do an ad for WBF Magazine and bring up the effects of steroids.
The Repo Man vs Brian Costello
They lock up and Repo hits punches in the corner. Repo chokes him on the ropes. Repo eye pokes him then throws him back. The British Bulldog does an inset promo. He said Repo tried to end his career with the tow rope and failed. He says it's time to bite the hand of the man who tried to hang him.
Repo boots Brian in the leg in the corner then chokes him. Repo backbreakers him then submits him with a half crab.
Thoughts: It was all squash here. Repo has definitely gotten rid of his old leg lock finisher and is now sticking to the half-crab.
Repo ties up Brian's legs with his rope and pulls him around.
WWF Event Center
Bret Hart does a promo. He says he's been under a lot of pressure since becoming IC champ. He says everyone wants what he has. He says Shawn Michaels wants a title shot but he likes the heat and the pressure. He says he's the best and he can live up to it. He says he will take on anyone, anytime, anywhere.
Rick Martel does a promo. He says he's so hot and he's in-demand everywhere. He makes fun of Tatanka. He says not to mess with him as next time, he might be missing more than his feathers.
Crush vs The Brooklyn Brawler
BB side headlocks him then Crush shoulders him over. BB hits shots to the gut in the corner then chokes him. Crush does an iron claw and throws him back. Perfect says Happy Fathers' Day to his dad. Crush hits a big boot then backbreakers BB. Vince wonders what Perfect's dad thinks of his son.
Crush pulls BB's throat down over the top rope. Crush hits a top rope club on BB. Crush hits a torture rack backbreaker on BB. Crush then head squeezes him and BB is out.
Thoughts: Brawler got a little in at least before being put down but Crush won as expected here. Vince bringing up Perfect's dad was interesting.
Mean Gene interviews Shawn Michaels and Sensational Sherri on the stage. Sherri has a mirror and Gene says you gotta be kidding me. Shawn looks at himself in the mirror. Gene says it's vain. Shawn asks if it's vain to wanna look at what everyone in the WWF is talking about. Shawn says he's the sexiest and hottest man in the WWF. He says he also sees the next IC champ.
Gene says Shawn having a shot at the IC Title would be the opportunity of a lifetime. Shawn says he's not afraid of Bret Hart. Shawn says he won't need the mirror to see his reflection for too much longer as he can look at it in the IC belt. Shawn says it's time he leaves the building in his own personal safety. He then looks in the mirror at himself and says, "Here's looking at you, kid".
We go to Miami Florida. We see Razor Ramon in a Scarface convertible. He says say hello to Razor Ramon. He says they live like pigs 90 miles away and are eating garbage. He says people are telling them what to do but nobody tells him what to do. He says he's coming to the WWF and nobody is going to stop him. He says nobody will tell Razor Ramon what to do and calls himself El Jefe.
The Undertaker vs Duane Gill
Gill tries to attack Taker from the side but takes a big boot. Taker hits a big choke slam and chokes him. Taker walks the top rope and clubs Gill. Taker hits a flying lariat. Taker then wins with a tombstone.
Thoughts: It was the usual Taker squash with him winning with ease.
Gill is then put in a bodybag after.
We are told Shawn Michaels has left the building.
Money Inc. vs Butler Stevens and Rock Warner
IRS gets on the mic before the match. He says it's about time the tax cheats paid up and helped pull the country out of the recession.
Butler wristlocks Ted then is chopped down. Butler's head is banged off the buckles. Butler's head is banged off of IRS' boot. Butler takes a double clothesline. Money Inc do an inset promo. Ted throws around money and IRS says Ben Franklin only knew about death and taxes.
Rock takes a Ted powerslam and an IRS flying clothesline. Rock is then pinned.
IRS elbow drops him after.
Thoughts: It was a short one that didn't accomplish much. Money Inc were the tag champs here and weren't losing this.
WWF Event Center
High Energy do a promo. Owen calls The Nasty's "fatboys". He says they are called High Energy as they are always moving and groovin' to the top. Koko says The Nasty's and Money Inc are looking for them. Koko says High Energy is what the WWF is all about. Owen says not to sell them short as they are going straight to the top.
Tatanka does a promo. He said his ancestors lived in peace and harmony for hundreds of years. He says he's proud of his heritage and some didn't agree with their ways. He says he has crossed path with Rick Martel, who is the same. He says the chiefs of past and present tell him to seek revenge against Rick and make them proud.
Overall thoughts: There wasn't much note of here outside of Papa Shango lighting a jobber's hand on fire. This was all squashes and there wasn't a lot of news. I wouldn't recommend this one at all
