We fade to the announcers desks with the NWA announcing trio of Joey Styles, David McLane & Jesse "The Body' Ventura welcome the fans to today's show tape live before a capacity crowd at the Coliseum in Greensboro, NC . Doing our ring announcing is Mike McGuirk. Our interviewer is Eden Stiles. NWA referees tonight are James Beard, Brian Hildebrand & Charles Robinson.
Before the beginning of the first match, manager James J. Dillon & the Four Horsemen (NWA World's Heavyweight Champion The Original Nature Boy' Buddy Rogers, World Tag Team Champs Ted Dibiase & Curt Hennig w/Stacy Keiber & the monster Batista) to comment on the upcoming appearance of the MUW World's Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesner today with his mouthpiece Paul Heyman & assistant Sable. JJ says he & Buddy are very interested in what they have to say as Mr Rogers is the No. 1 contender in the NWA to face the MUW champ when he defends the belt which is coming up in a couple of weeks. It is going to be a very important hour.
Match 1. Ladies Single Match. Tessa Blanchard beat Rachael Ellering with the sling shot suplex. (9:02).
Stiles interviews 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin who says he is very interested in what Lesnar & his crew have to say on today's show. But down the road after the Rattlesnake takes the NWA title off of Rogers, he will win the MUW World's title from Lesnar if he still has it. Because Stone Cold says so.

At the desk, we get a long-winded interview with manager Paul E. Heyman before he brings out the MUW World's Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar & his assistant Sable (who is smoking hot). Paul E. says the NWA is loaded with challengers but can any one of them really beat Brock Lesnar. No. Buddy Rogers is not man enough. Steve Austin will learn tough talk don't win you matches. Batista. A freak of a man I admit but prove to Brock Lesnar you are man enough to get in the ring with him. (Sable looks like she is about to pop out of her little outfit). JJ, we will talk & if the money is right, your NWA champ might get a title shot at Brock Lesnar. And reserve a room in the hospital for him while you are at it. Now we have better places to be.
Ventura says 'those are strong words from the manager of the MUW World's Champ. I think he got everyone's attention'. The trio wraps up today's show & remind the fans to tune in next week for more NWA action.
