This week's Prime Time Wrestling is one of the last shows before the upcoming Saturday Night's Main Event, and it was chalk-full of happenings that could affect the evening. George Steele, the Funk Brothers, Harley Race, the Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff - all will be in action, plus more! Also, be sure to check out the first promo video we have aired for an upcoming wrestler that's about to debut. Tune in for a great night of wrestling.
We started off backstage, with King Kong Bundy and Big John Studd, irate. Bobby Heenan is trying to calm them down. They heard that Hulk Hogan went directly to management and demanded a match with them at Saturday Night's Main Event, and it was immediately booked as a six-man tag match! They were a man down, and they were less than pleased. Luckily, with a brilliant look in his eye, Bobby the Brain said he had a guy who could fill the spot, and would be happy for a shot at Hogan. In fact, Heenan had to go -- that man had a match right now, and he needed to get out there with him. After all, it's never good to keep The King waiting...

FULL RESULTS:
Seconds after this show aired, a match was being spread around on the Hotline, it will be Adorable Adrian Adonis taking on Hillbilly Jim in a grudge match at Saturday Night's Main Event. Now, that is one you won't want to miss. Family comes first, and we will see it for ourselves at Saturday Night's Main Event! Next up will be Superstars of Wrestling, our last show before the big weekend! See you there!

FULL RESULTS:
- Brad Armstrong vs. King Harley Race (w/ Bobby "The Brain" Heenan):
The King took advantage of an error in judgement early on by Armstrong, and had his way with the high flyer. Armstrong landed some impressive spring-board moves, including a beautiful moonsault, but Race's strength was too much for him in the end. Race won with a falling headbutt from the top rope, followed by his Fisherman's suplex. The announcers pretty much set the stage for Race's next match - he will fill the third spot on Bundy and Studd's six-man tag team at Saturday Night's Main Event, taking on none other than Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, and Billy Jack Haynes in the show's main event. What a match that will be!
- The Funk Brothers (Terry Funk and Dory Funk, Jr.) vs. The Young Stallions (Jim Powers and Paul Roma):
