Funny thing is Condrey was already gone before the match. Lane hits a nearfall on 2. Eaton saves lane from a 2 submission. The assasins miss a double team and Lane tags in eaton. Splash by Eaton for the 123. Winners: Midnight express
comments: OK match but it's hard to follow. The assasins look very much alike.
Bob Caudle interviews Ricky Steamboat and Ricky gets booed.
2. Butch Reed vs Steven Casey
There is absolutley not reason for this match. This is Pre Doom Reed. This is the same casey from World class that fueded with Eric Embry. Casey starts off with a series of moves and goes after the arm. The match is so boring that we see a couple kissing. I really have no use for this match so i will just say reed wins with a shoulder tackle off the top rope. Winner: butch reed.
Comments: BORING. BORING. BORING
Ric Flair interview with his ladies and hiro Matsuda. WHOOOOOO!!!! Ricky steamboat comes in and gets booed out of the building while Ric flair is over like a mofo. Flair is stripped of his $10,000+ fur coat and $1500 suit. Before that, flair offers ricky and bob caudle one of his ladies.
3. Lex Luger vs The Blackmailer(jack victory)
This is basically a squash match as Luger just out powers Blackmailer. Luger hits a headlock on blackmailer. Luger hits a powerslam and puts on a headlock. Jim ross says Luger "has the agility of a junior Heavyweight". Blackmailer has some offense but luger is just too powerful. Luger "hulks up". Luger hits the Superplex for a 3 count.
Comments; Not bad. Basically a squash match to put over luger for his match with windham for the us title.
Bob Caudle interviews Rick Steiner.
4.US tag title match: Varisty Club vs The Fantastics
Rotunda and Rogers starts off. They start off with some amateur wrestling. After a lot of stalling, Rogers puts on a headlock and hits a clothesline for a near fall. Doc tags in and just nails rogers. Fulton tags in and the fantastics double team. Doc takes it to the mat. We see a inset interview with Rick Steiner. Rotunda tags in and nails fulton with a series of moves. The heels keep fulton in their corner as doc tag in. Rogers tags in and hits a dropkick. The heels dominate Fulton. Rogers tags in but gets tripped by Rotunda. Doc misses an elbow and rogers is thrown outside. The heels go for a double team but miss. Cheap shot to the back of the head by rotunda and williams pins him for 123.
Comments: Match of the night. Varsity club rules and the fantastics are pretty good.
5.Ricky Steamboat vs Bob Bradley
Both men trade moves and Bradley starts off good. A very loud "we want flair" chant. Steamboat hits a series of hip tosses and arm drags. Bradley goes outside and stalls. Nice slam on the outside by bradley. Bradley hits the flair flip bump in the corner and Steamboat goes after the arm. Bradley with a nice side slam and he goes to the top rope. He misses a splash. Judo chop by Steamboat who nails another judo chop from the tope. Bodypress by steamboat for the 3 count. Winner: Ricky Steamboat
Comments: pretty good competative match. Steamboat was just so awesome during this time.

We see an inset interview from Mike Rotunda. Clothesline by steiner. Morgan tries to take advantage but siner no sells. Steiner hits a powerslam. Morgan comes back with a nice spinning elbow and headlock. Morgan misses a splash. Belly to belly by steiner for the 3 count.
Comments: ok match. Steiner was still a little green and had a stupid gimmick.
Bob Caudle interviews JYD, Micheal Hayes and Sting. Kevin Sullivan shows up and locks the babyfaces in their lockeroom. I wonder how that will affect the main event?
7. World 6 man titles match: Road Warriors and Tenyru vs JYD, Sting and Hayes
The babyfaces don't show up. The varisty club comes in and takes their place. Sullivan and Animal start off. Tenyru and Rotunda tag in. Tenyru chops the hell out of rotunda who tags in Doc. The babyfaces finally get released and head out to the arena. The Varisty club goes after animal's arm. Sting, JYD and Hayes come in and a brawl ensues. Sting and Sullivan brawl on the outside.
Comments: Can't really rate this match as it never happened.
Overall: Not a really good event. The best part of the show was the Flair/Steamboat confrontation.
Ew... sounds like the most filler-iffic Clash of all time. Sorry you had to sit through this turd-fest.
The Main event had so much protential. But I guess they ran out of time.. I mean, We couldn't go without the 10 minute Bruce Reed match.
Correction. A Butch Reed SQUASH match.
