🎙️ Announcers - Rod Trongard, Frank Reed and Mr. T 🏟️ Attendance - 4,918 📺 Rating - 0.63 *OVERALL RATING RECORD* ✍️ Show Grade - C+ (70)
🎖️ CHAMPIONS 🎖️
AWA World Heavyweight Title: Sid
AWA International Television Title: Owen Hart
AWA World Tag Team Titles: Black Panthers Rising (Butch Reed and James Sandoval)
Eddie Guerrero (w/Salazar Luuv) defeated Brian Christopher in 5:08 Eddie submitted Christopher with Gory Special. Cage of Hellhole Participation Match | Red Hook Machine (w/Jesse Ventura) defeated Dean Malenko in 5:32 Red Hook pinned Malenko by illegally using the ropes for leverage. Red Hook thus entered the Cage of Hellhole slot that was freed from Mawashi's injury. Mr. Sandman defeated Diamond Dallas Page in 8:12 Sandman pinned DDP after a distraction from Dave Taylor. Taylor brought a huge British flag during the match and put it in the corner of the DDP. DDP was distracted and therefore lost the match. Cage of Hellhole Participation Match | Jerry Lawler (w/Chris Youngblood) defeated Ken Patera (w/Ed Ewers and Tom Lindman) in 12:10 Lawler pinned Patera with Piledriver. The match was one of the best matches of 1992 so far. Ewers and Lindman, who were outside the ring, frequently intervened in the match. With the support of Youngblood and the referee firing Ewers and Lindman from the ringside in the end, Lawler managed to win the match. The financial power behind Rental Killers to get Patera into the Cage of Hellhole match drew attention. The participants that have qualified for the Cage of Hellhole match so far are: Zbyszko, Steamboat, Eddie, Pillman, Enos, Painkiller, Sandman, Red Hook and Lawler. The final participant will be determined with the Luuv vs. Pitbull #1 match to be held next week.
NOTES 📌 Jesse Ventura was spotted at the show's opening for the first time after Rude lost the AWA World title last week. He also has King Kong Bundy, whom he brought to the company in the past weeks. Ventura said that Rude would no longer wrestle with this company whose "prestige had turned into garbage": "Actually, he didn't care one bit about losing the championship. I just learned too. We had a disagreement here with Rick. Because I still care about this championship! I put my entire network in front of Rick to both win and protect that title. Frankly, I don't know where Rick is right now. He may be chasing women, as he always does. Here, I will regain my lost reputation with this monster you see next to me: KING KONG BUNDY! Yes Sid! A competitor just for you! In this Rage in a Cage show, the title will return to the alliance it belongs to!”
📌 It was announced that Terry Mawashi, one of the Cage of Hellhole participants, was injured once again. It has been learned that an extra Cage of Hellhole Participation match will be held today.
📌 As reported last week, Frank Reed announced two news. First: that there will be a Golden Ticket to Hell match at the upcoming Championship Wrestling show. The match is briefly as follows, with a quick poll to be made among the audiance who came to the building that night, these audiance will be asked to choose two wrestlers among the Cage of Hellhole participants. The two poll winners will face off right next week on the CW show. The winner will gain the advantage of entering the Cage of Hellhole (as it will be Timed Battle Royal) match in last place. The losing side will start the game by coming first.
📌 Reed's second announcement is about the Rental Killers investigation. He brought a private detective to the company: Dt. Daxton Hartweck! Now he will be dealing with this research. Hartweck briefly talked about his background and introduced himself and said he would reveal the power behind the formation of Rental Killers. He would benefit greatly from his "private detective skills".
📌 Chris Youngblood was scolded by his mentor Jerry Lawler, who was taking pictures with his fans at the entrance of the building. Lawler warned him to devote himself entirely to wrestling and not to such things.
📌 A new match has been announced for the Rage in a Cage: Sid vs. King Kong Bundy – AWA World Title

🎖️ CHAMPIONS 🎖️
AWA World Heavyweight Title: Sid
AWA International Television Title: Owen Hart
AWA World Tag Team Titles: Black Panthers Rising (Butch Reed and James Sandoval)
King Kong Bundy (w/Jesse Ventura) defeated Fatu in 4:08 Bundy pinned Fatu with Big Splash. Bundy thus made his first single in-ring debut. Chris Youngblood (w/Jerry Lawler) defeated Jimmy Del Ray (w/Paul Ellering) in 6:11 Youngblood pinned Del Ray with Diving Tomahawk. Youngblood won the match after a long time. Youngblood pales in comparison to Lawler's ringside success. Butch Reed (w/James Sandoval) defeated Mike Barton in 3:55 Butch pinned Barton with Gorilla Press Slam. Butch and Barton's in-ring chemistry didn't quite match. Larry Zbyszko defeated Dave Taylor (w/Jeannie Clark) in 12:24 Zbyszko pinned Taylor. DDP was among the announcers during the match. After the match, DDP entered the ring and tried to force Taylor to wear the "I Hate UK Athlethes" t-shirt. Taylor couldn't resist much as he lay sluggish on the floor. After a while, Owen Hart came running and saved Taylor.
NOTES 📌 Undertaking the Rental Killer investigation, Dt. Daxton Hartweck had his first meeting with Brian Pillman. As Pillman said in his previous interviews, he said that once he reaches the person behind Rental Killers, he will make it worse than destroying him. In private, Hartweck said he realized that this force was attacking the company's young talent.
📌 AWA World Tag Team champions Black Panthers Rising drew attention to the tension that has been rising in Los Angeles for a year: “LA is now the new center of racism. If it goes on like this, we may have to take over the situation ourselves! Just like we got things done in AWA, we will do it there!”
📌 The NB Show with Nick Bockwinkel – This week's guests were Owen Hart and Jackie Fargo. Fargo talked about Owen's unstoppable rise and sent a message to Mike Enos and Saniko, their rivals on Sunday's Rage in a Cage, next week. Saying that UNOT is like a virus, he pointed out that although Saniko wanted to leave but he could not get rid of it.
📌 A segment that made fun of Nikita Koloff, who went to WWF, came to the screens. We saw a person very similar to Nikita being hilariously whipped. After a while, he heard the words "please stop, no more Frank" and it was seen that it was Frank Reed who had whipped Nikita.

Thus, the participants of the Cage of Hellhole match were completed: Zbyszko, Steamboat, Eddie, Pillman, Enos, Painkiller, Sandman, Red Hook, Lawler and Luuv. 🎖️ AWA World Tag Team Championship | Dean Malenko and Chris Benoit defeated Black Panthers Rising (Butch Reed and James Sandoval) (c) via DQ in 13:28 The surprise of the night was the AWA World Tag Team Championship match. At least as much as the match itself, the outcome of the match was astonishing. At the end of the match, Sandoval pinned Malenko, while Butch pulled the strings from outside the ring. Thus, Malenko, who wanted to break the pin by putting his foot on the ropes but couldn't reach his goal. The referee did not see this situation at first and gave the pinfall. However, after the objections of other officials, the referee reversed the decision and disqualified Black Panthers Rising. Although the belts did not change hands, the victory of the Malenko / Benoit duo shocked everyone. 🎟️ Golden Ticket to Hell | Ricky Steamboat defeated Jerry Lawler (w/Chris Youngblood) in 16:56 Steamboat pinned Lawler with Dragon Suplex. The match of the two former teammates started with simple wrestling moves at first. However, over time, the duo got tougher and they started throwing punches at each other. Steamboat won the match, which was tough and tough, and earned the right to enter the Cage of Hellhole match in the last place this Sunday. After the match, the two looked at each other for a while and then shook hands. Youngblood at the ringside also congratulated Steamboat.
NOTES 📌 At the opening of the show, we watched the images from the survey organized for the selection of the participants of the Golden Ticket to Hell match to be held today. Later, Frank Reed announced the winners of the poll in the ring: Jerry Lawler and Ricky Steamboat!
📌 In the Rental Killers research, Hartweck met with Eric Bischoff this week. Hartweck posed more questions about the moment Bischoff was attacked. Bischoff said he received anonymous threatening letters at his home prior to the attack, but did not take them seriously.
📌 Star Review with Tully Blanchard – This episode featured King Kong Bundy, who made his first single in-ring debut on the last Taboo Hour. Blanchard noted Bundy's "shocking" and "remarkable" debut. He said that no titan could stand against his in-ring skills and dangerous appearance: “Jesse Ventura shouldn't be dishonored here. They need to know the value of the opportunities it provides. Rick Rude didn't appreciate it. He took off. The only person who will respect Jesse's connections will be King Kong Bundy! I feel it. This is exactly why the AWA World championship will fall back into Jesse's hands. Sid, I'd be very careful this Sunday if I were you. Because on Sunday you will find a real monster in front of you.” This segment has been AWA's most successful segment to date. Blanchard's performance left everyone in awe.

AWA World Tag Team Titles: Black Panthers Rising (Butch Reed and James Sandoval)
Jerry Lawler (w/Chris Youngblood) defeated Sean Morley in 6:02 Lawler pinned Morley with Diving Fist Drop. Owen Hart and Dave Taylor (w/Jeannie Clark) defeated The Rock 'n' Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson) in 11:36 Owen submitted Morton with Sharpshooter. It was an eye-catching technical team match. Brian Pillman and Mr. Sandman defeated Diamond Dallas Page and Dr. Painkiller (w/Tim Runnel) in 14:22 Pillman pinned Painkiller with Air Pillman. Contrary to expectations, this was the lowest rated match of the night. Apart from DDP, members of both teams will be participating in the Cage of Hellhole match this Sunday, so we watched a match like the preview of this match.
NOTES 📌 Malenko/Benoit duo, who surprisingly defeated the AWA World Tag champions by disqualification this Monday, will be re-elected this Sunday at Black Panthers Rising's request.
📌 United Nations of Terror leader Adnan Al-Kaissie made an announcement. He said that under normal circumstances Mike Enos would be Saniko's partner this Sunday, but that was canceled with Enos's involvement in the Cage of Hellhole match last week. Since Enos will be channeling this match, Adnan wanted not to tire him. However, the match was not cancelled. Instead, Jimmy Del Ray would be Saniko's teammate. Adnan reminded that he "had" to come back to Saniko.
📌 At the backstage, Lawler counseled his protege, Youngblood, to watch carefully this Sunday's Cage of Hellhole game. He also challenged all his opponents.

🎖️ AWA World Tag Team Championship | Black Panthers Rising (Butch Reed and James Sandoval) (c) defeated Dean Malenko and Chris Benoit in 11:59 Sandoval pinned Benoit with Missile Dropkick. After their surprise disqualification win at the last Championship Wrestling show, the Malenko/Benoit duo started the match very assertively. However, the champions held on to the match very ambitious and defended their titles for the second time.
Kiss the Flag Match | Diamond Dallas Page defeated Dave Taylor (w/Jeannie Clark) in 10:54 A huge UK flag was brought to the ringside by Taylor before the match. DDP won the match by cheating. After the match, he forced his opponent to wear the "I hate UK athlethes" t-shirt, who was lying motionless on the ground. When DDP left the ring, Jeannie plowed into the ring and brought her lover back. When Taylor regained consciousness, he ripped the shirt off and was furious.
Dynamite Kid and Owen Hart defeated Saniko and Fatu (w/Adnan Al-Kaissie) in 13:41 Owen submitted Fatu with Sharpshooter. Normally, Del Ray was expected to be Saniko's partner. However, Fatu, who appeared at the entrance, surprisingly convinced his brother and became his partner. Saniko came out after a long break and put up a good fight. After the match, Mike Enos and Adnan beat Saniko and Fatu in the ring. No one came to rescue.
🎖️ AWA World Heavyweight Championship | Sid (c) defeated King Kong Bundy (w/Jesse Ventura) in 14:42 via count out Sid struggled a lot in the match. However, during the match, a strange man who looked a lot like Rick Rude came to ringside. Ventura and Bundy are distracted. After a while, Bundy went out of the ring and started chasing this man. He was defeated by count out when he could not return to the ring in time due to his slow movement due to his size. Bundy finally caught the Rude-like man and beat him up badly. Thus, Sid retained his belt for the first time.
Ricky Steamboat survives the Cage of Hellhole match (44:12) Steamboat, Lawler, Eddie and Sandman were the final four. As Lawler reached the last two, his out-of-ring student Youngblood was brutally beaten by members of the Racket Club. Although Lawler did not want to quit the match at first, he could not stand his protege's condition and saved him by climbing the cage and leaving the ring. Steamboat thus won the 1992 Cage of Hellhole match and qualified for the AWA World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleRock.

Diamond Dallas Page and Jeff Jarrett defeated Brian Christopher and Jim Brunzell in 5:42 Jarrett submitted Christopher with Figure Four Leglock.

Dynamite Kid (w/Dave Taylor) defeated Dr. Painkiller (w/Tim Runnel) in 8:32 Dynamite Kid pinned Painkiller with Cradle Piledriver. Losing the Kiss the Flag match last night, Taylor was seen incredibly upset. At the ringside, when Runnel made fun of him about it, Taylor got even more angry and tried to attack him. When he did not stop his attacks, the referee banned him from the ringside. "The Hollywood Hammer" Greg Valentine (w/Diamond Dallas Page) defeated Chris Benoit (w/Brian Pillman and Dean Malenko) in 10:15 Valentine pinned Benoit with Piledriver. The match went head-to-head and Benoit gave a good performance. Larry Zbyszko won contendarship draw In the ring at the close of the show, Frank Reed said that Steamboat would be replaced by a draw at WrestleRock '92 who would have a chance to title shot for the AWA World Heavyweight Championship. He then invited the CoH participants to the ring. All the participants objected to him because of this method. The most objections came from Lawler, who was in the last two with Steamboat and automatically expected to be a contendar instead. A mechanism was brought to the ring for the drawing of lots and after an excited wait, the winner was revealed: Larry Zbyszko! Zbyszko thus secured the AWA championship match next month! The show ended as everyone in the ring was arguing with each other and with Reed.
NOTES 📌 The show opened with shocking news. Ricky Steamboat, who won the Cage of Hellhole match on the show Rage in a Cage last night, was attacked on his way to the hotel after the show. He was not expected to wrestle for a while. The case is being investigated. He will make the final decision tonight for the WrestleRock '92 main event.
📌 In the Rental Killers investigation, Hartweck questioned Nick Bockwinkel this time. Hartweck reminded him of his positive words about this formation and directly asked about the financial power behind it. No matter how hard he tried, Bockwinkel made it clear that he didn't know anything.
📌 Hartweck was attacked backstage by members of the Rental Killers. However, the attack failed. Hartweck generally beat Patera, and the Rental Killers quickly fled.

The referee normally did not give the pinfall to end the match because Enos' feet were on the ropes. However, after Enos and then Adnan, who attacked Fargo from behind and knocked him down, intervened and threatened the referee by pulling him by the collar and forcing him to give the pin, the referee gave the match to Enos. With an incredibly controversial decision, Enos becomes the new champion.
NOTES 📌 Sid sent a message to Zbyszko. He said that the will of the gods, not even the gods themselves, could stand before the titans.
📌 News came that Mick Foley, one of the young wrestlers, had burned down his house during the week. We've learned before that he won't be appearing on AWA for a while due to some strange behavior. Frank Reed did not want to put the employees at risk, as he was suspected of setting the fire on purpose and he might have mental health problems.
