Our announcing team of Gordon Solie & Joey Styles in front of the huge NWA Logo for the new episode of NWA Championship Wrestling. Gordon & Joey welcome the fans NWA Championship Wrestling. Gordon & Joey open discussing the situation between 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper & 'the Living Legend' Larry Zbyszko as the ppv nears. Gordon comments that time is closing in on Mr. Zbyszko & his cage match with Roddy Piper on May 31. Mr. Zbyszko has increased the bounty to $15,000 today but this bounty hunter will not be announced until match time. They are joined by the President of the NWA Mr. Jim Barnett for the next announcement. Mr. Barnett calls out manager Rock Hunter to inform them if he has added, as he said he would lastd week, a fourth member to his stable.
The President of the Rock Hunter Organization Rock Hunter is out with the United States Tag Team Champions the Masked Assassins (Tom Renesto & Jody Hamilton) & the Missouri Mauler. Rock is smiling which is unusual for him as they approach the Commissioner. Barnett gets right to the point-- who will be their fourth man if they want to enter the battle royal against James J. Dillon's Dynasty & 'Playboy' Gary Hart's Army. Rock proudly introduces the newest member to the shock of the TV audience - Stan 'the Lariat' Hansen!!! Hunter tells Barnett it is official as Hansen simply says 'The money from Mr. Hunter was just right!'. Rock adds let the other stables cry & complain all they want - the Rock Hunter Organization is officially entered right Mr. Commissioner. Barnett says with the addition of the Rock Hunter Organization the purse is now $75,000. It will still be held under battle royal rules.
