Hello and welcome to another edition
of Seanomaniac Wrestling Reviews, the only wrestling review series on the
internet that is more painful than the Rusev & Lana divorce segment!
Saturday Night’s Main Event before The Survivor Series! We have Roddy Piper
against Heenan Family Member Haku, Macho King Randy Savage vs Jimmy Superfly
Snuka, The Bushwhackers vs The Rougeau Brothers and Hulk Hogan vs Ted Dibiase!
Let’s get it on!
Macho
King Randy Savage vs Jimmy Superfly Snuka
Savage defeated Duggan for the crown,
Savage jumps Snuka to begin the match but Snuka nails a chop, kick and a flying
headbutt. Atomic drop with Savage falling to the floor. Queen Sherri checks on
her man, Snuka chops Savage at ringside. Sherri grabs Snuka entering the ring,
axe handle from Savage. Scoop slam and knee drop by Macho King, two for Savage.
Savage hurls Snuka to the floor, top rope diving axe handle connects with Snuka
laying across the guard-rail, Sherri boots Snuka for good measure. Elbow across
the throat by Savage, Sherri chokes Snuka with her purse.
Foot choke by Savage, two for Savage.
Running knee to the kidneys, Snuka is shaking off the attacks of Savage though.
Chops and headbutts, Savage is down. Chops in the corner, Irish whip to the
opposite corner. Massive clothesline, headbutt by Snuka. Savage is caught in
the tree of woe, Sherri frees Savage and hands Savage the purse. Snuka has
Sherri, Savage cracks Snuka with the purse, roll-up with a handful of tights
for the win.
Solid performance from both, Savage
needed the win after his loss at Summerslam. The Macho King persona is a great
fit, only ramping up the delusion of Randy Savage. Snuka has been fine since
coming back to the WWF, I am happy to see Snuka take a loss after only getting
counted out against Dibiase. Still a superstar but it is time for Snuka to make
others stars. Anyways, it was solid start to the show!
Winner: Randy
Savage over Jimmy Snuka via Roll-Up!
(WWF Heavyweight
Championship Match) Hulk Hogan © vs Ted Dibiase W/ Zeus
Hogan takes on his old foe in Dibiase,
Dibiase tried to buy the championship in the past but now, Dibiase has bought
an insurance policy in Zeus to aid him in capturing the WWF Championship.
Lock-up, Hogan backs Dibiase into the corner. Dibiase reverses the hold, Zeus
grabs the leg of Hogan and in comes Dibiase but Hogan out-fights Dibiase and a
clothesline brings down Dibiase. Side headlock from Hogan, shoulder blocks by
Hogan but Zeus trips Hogan. Irish whip but Dibiase misses the clothesline,
right hands by Hogan. Irish whip and elbow in the corner, right hands from
Hogan.
Zeus distracts Hogan once more, eye
rake from Dibiase. Clothesline and down goes Hogan, Zeus chokes Hogan behind
his back. The fans are on their feet, Jake The Snake Roberts is here in Hogan’s
corner. Dibiase spots Roberts, Hogan rolls-up Dibiase for a close two. Dibiase
gets back in control with stomps, Dibiase misses an elbow. Right hands from
Hogan, ten punches in the corner from The Hulkster. Virgil steals Damian,
Roberts chases after Virgil. Hogan is distracted and Dibiase comes in with a

Clothesline in the ring for two,

for two. Reverse chin-lock from The Million Dollar Man, Hogan elbows his way
free. Shoulder blocks and a double knock-down in the middle of the ring, Hogan
looks to run off the ropes and Zeus cracks Hogan in the back. Fist drops from
Dibiase, top rope knee drop from Dibiase but Hogan powers out at two. Hogan is
Hulking Up, right hands and a big boot, Dibiase begs for mercy but Zeus is in
the ring holding Hogan. Dibiase nails Zeus by mistake, small package by Hogan
and Hogan beats Dibiase. Dibiase attacks Hogan from behind allowing Zeus to
stretch the neck of Hogan.
Solid match from Dibiase and Hogan,
two great workers in their own right and you have the added drama with Roberts
at ringside albeit briefly. This is massive for Dibiase, I feel The Million
Dollar Man is getting right back on track by choking out Hogan after Zeus’
attack. We have our main angle heading into Survivor Series ladies and
gentlemen. I love watching these two during this time and they continue to show
just how good they are inside of that ring.
Winner: Hulk
Hogan over Ted Dibiase via DQ!
Rowdy Roddy Piper
vs Haku W/ Bobby Heenan
Piper has had issues with The Heenan
Family, Ravishing Rick Rude in particular who believes Piper cost him the
Intercontinental Championship at Summerslam. Rude achieved a measure of revenge
laying out Piper on The Brother Love show with The Rude Awakening. Piper goes
against Haku and the reaction is monstrous. Haku jumps Piper to begin, they
begin slugging it out with Piper winning that war. Massive clothesline to the
floor, Piper jumps off the apron and pummels Haku.
Piper spots Heenan, Heenan is running
for his life. Piper catches Heenan but Haku manages to make the save with a
clothesline. Chops and right hands from Piper, Irish whip and elbow by Haku.
Shoulder-breaker by Haku for two, massive leg drop from Haku. Haku climbs to
the top rope, Diving Headbutt misses as Piper rolls out of the way. Piper slams
Haku’s head into the mat, right hands all around. Irish whip, flapjack from
Piper and a belly to belly suplex for the win.
Abrupt ending out of nowhere for me,
was expecting more of a fight between Piper and Haku. Piper’s intensity was
fantastic though, this felt like a big time beatdown from The Hot Rod, I am
sure they could have had the people off their feet screaming their lungs out
but regardless, I was happy to see Piper in the ring.
Winner: Rowdy
Roddy Piper over Haku via Belly To Belly Suplex!
Tito Santana W/ Dusty
Rhodes & The Red Rooster & Brutus The Barber Beefcake vs Rick Martel W/
Slick & The Twin Towers & Jimmy Hart & The Honky Tonk Man
Martel jumps Santana, Irish whip but
Martel misses the boot. Atomic drop by Santana and a clothesline, right hands
on the floor by Santana. Back in the ring, Martel is begging for mercy, Martel
lures in Santana for some right hands. Irish whip but Santana counters with a
sunset flip for two, arm-drag for two. Martel is choked by Santana, arm-wringer
by Santana. Martel grabs the hair, leapfrogs before a flying crossbody from
Santana for two. Martel pulls Santana into the buckle, stomps by Martel. Martel
places Santana in the tree of woe, big stomps from Martel.
Martel whips Santana but ducks his
head, big kick to the chest from Santana. They are trading blows in the middle
of the ring, big back body-drop from Santana. Flying Forearm with Slick
distracting Santana. Bossman and Rhodes are in the ring, everyone is in the
ring with another referee trying to stop the action. Martel jumps Santana as we
reset, Irish whip with Santana coutering. Hip-toss, Martel side-steps Santana
who falls to the floor, Martel poses for his fans.
Elbow drops on the spine from Martel,
knees into the spine. Snap-mare into a reverse chin-lock, Santana elbows his
way out and blocks the hip-toss. Backslide attempt by Santana, Santana scores
but it is a close two. Martel begins choking Santana, Boston Crab from Martel.
Santana reaches the ropes, Santana uses the ropes to counter into a cover, two
for Santana. Rib-breaker by Martel, Martel is on the top rope. Santana reaches
the ropes, Martel is crotched. Martel meets the buckle over and over, Irish
whip to the corner. Right hand by Santana, figure four but Slick gets involved
again. Bossman comes in and everyone is brawling inside of that ring.
This brawl made me want to see these
two settle it out one on one, Santana is one hell of a babyface when he does
his thing and Martel is growing on me as a heel already. His facials are
tremendous and would you look at all that stra-power on the outside, I cannot
wait for Survivor Series!
Double
Disqualification!
The Fabulous
Rougeau Brothers W/ Jimmy Hart vs The Bushwhackers
Well I do love The Bushwhackers
promos, they are as intense as The Sheephearders ones but the content is a
little different. Anyways The Rougeaus have been involved in some great matches
with The Hart Foundation so I am expecting some good work. The Bushwhackers
jump The Rougeaus, not expecting that. Jimmy Hart is cornered by The
Bushwhackers, The Rougeaus save Hart but Hart loses his pants. Jimmy Hart runs
out of the arena. The Rougeaus jump The Bushwhackers, Butch eats a double
clothesline. Knee drop and Boston Crab combination, tag to Jacque.
Flying reverse elbow, tag to Raymond.
Jacque cheap shots Luke, Jacque nails Raymond with a high knee by mistake.
Butch tags Luke, stomps and throat thrusts. Massive right, Irish whip and a
hangman’s neck-breaker. Noggin knocker, Battering Ram on Jacque and a Double
Gut-buster for the win! All Gimmick and no substance yet the crowd loved it!
DUD!

Not as important as the prior Saturday
Night’s Main Event but it does build up to The Survivor Series, you have Piper
getting his hands on Rude to look forward to, Roberts going after Dibiase and
Hogan going after Zeus. It’s all about Survivor Series ladies and gentlemen,
thanks for reading and remember: There’s always another night!
