MSG 10/16/87 (GOOD QUALITY) 2HRS 15MIN
1. Outback Jack v. Jose Estrada
2. Killer Bees v. The Dream Team (GREAT MATCH! Late in the match, the Bees don their masks and The Dream team falls
3. victim to the ol' switcheroo. - Guest commentary by Nick Bockwinkle)
4. Ivan Putski v. Mike Sharpe (The "Polish Power" returns to MSG)
5. POSEDOWN CONTEST - "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff v. "Ravishing" Rick Rude. After firing Bobby Heenan for the
. umpteenth time, Orndorff is a face again. The crowd quite obviously is behind Orndorff and this leads to…
7. Orndorff v. Rude (The posedown was better)
8. Don "The Rock" Muraco v. Sika
9. Randy Savage v. Killer Kahn
10. Superstar Billy Graham v. Butch Reed (Cage Match)
11. Billy Jack Haynes v. Nikolai Volkoff
12. Strike Force v. The Islanders (GREAT 2/3 FALLS MATCH! This was when the WWF's tag team division was at its BEST!)
MSG 11/24/87 [24/7] 2 disks
1. Ultimate Warrior v. Frenchy Martin (With a match that's short and sloppy, The Warrior makes his MSG debut.)
2. Glamour Girls v. The Jumping Bomb Angels (VERY GOOD MATCH, but only due to the Angels who carried the match
from start to finish.)
4. Paul Orndorff v. Rick Rude
5. The Killer Bees v. The Bolsheviks (The Bolsheviks were just plain bad.)
6. Honkytonk Man v. Randy Savage (y'know, it's a shame Savage had to get old. During the mid 80's Savage outclassed, and
outworked virtually the entire WWF Roster. Whether as a face or a heel, he was great to watch.)
8. Jake Roberts v. Danny Davis (Yeah, Davis really had a chance here…NOT!)
9. Strike Force v. The Hart Foundation (Tag Team title defense by Strike Force - GREAT MATCH!)
10. Ted DiBiase v. Ivan Putski

6. Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat v. "Ravishing" Rick Rude (Very Good Match!)
7. Dino Bravo v. Koko B. Ware
8. The Islanders v. The Killer Bees (GREAT MATCH! Both of these teams were very much underrated and underused.)
9. Cowboy Lang & Chris Dube v. Lord Littlebrook & Little Tokyo (Midget match)
10. Honkytonk Man v. Randy Savage (HTM was the IC champ at this time, and had recently cemented Savage's face turn
by attacking Elizabeth and causing an alliance between Savage and Hulk Hogan. In this match, Jimmy Hart has to be
suspended above the ring in a cage.)

8. Don Muraco & The Ultimate Warrior v. King Kong Bundy & Butch Reed
(Coincidently enough, Muraco was known at the time as "The Rock", while The Warrior's name as part of the Blade
Runners Tag team (with Sting) was "Rock". Useless information huh? Well how about this, When Muraco was simply
"Magnificent", he feuded with Rocky Johnson, who at the time was called "The Rock". Rocky Johnson is the father of
Rocky Maivia, who is now known as, you guessed it.....THE ROCK!)
MSG 4/25/88 (VERY GOOD QUALITY) 2HRS 20MIN
1. Brady Boone v. Steve Lombardi (VERY GOOD MATCH! I'm not kidding here! Both guys did a fantastic job. The crowd was
really into it as the match neared its conclusion.)
2. Ken Patera v. Dino Bravo
3. Bret Hart v. Bad News Brown (Brown had double-crossed Hart to win the battle royale at Wrestlemania 4. This saw the
beginning of the Hart Foundation's baby face turn - Good Match)
4. Bam Bam Bigelow v. One Man Gang
5. Randy "Macho Man" Savage v. Ted DiBiase (Savage's first title defense since winning the WWF Title at Wrestlemania 4. GREAT MATCH!
Both Savage and DiBiase were two of the best workers in the WWF at the time.)
6. Barry Horowitz v. Jose Luis Rivera
7. Sensational Sheri v. Desiree Peterson
8. Ultimate Warrior v. Hercules (Sloppy match, but the crowd just LOVES this guy!)
9. Demolition v. Strike Force (Strike Force attempt to regain their recently lost Tag Team titles from Demolition. VERY GOOD MATCH!
Once again, during the years of 1987 and 1988, the WWF had the best tag team division in it's history. You were Guaranteed a great match,
no matter which 2 teams you put in the ring. The only shame was that Vince wouldn't put his faces and his heels against each other.)

2. George "The Animal" Steele v. Greg "The Hammer" Valentine
3. The Young Stallions v. The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers (The Rougeaus are now heels, while the Young Stallions were a good guy version of the
Conquistadors. Basically Jobbers with an actual name.)
4. Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake v. One Man Gang
5. The British Bulldogs & Koko B. Ware v. The Islanders & Bobby "The Brain" Heenan (Sivi "High Chief" Afi is subbing for Tama)
6. Iron Mike Sharpe v. Jerry Allen
7. Randy Savage v. Ted DiBiase (Return match from last month's MSG card - ANOTHER GREAT MATCH! In the opening
8. seconds of the match, Savage absolutely DRILLS Ted with a wicked double forearm and breaks his nose!)
9. "The Rock" Don Muraco v. Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart
10. Ken Patera v. Dino Bravo
11. JYD v. "The Outlaw" Ron Bass
12. Howard Finkel announces the matches for next month's MSG card. Nothing out of the ordinary here, as Finkel does this at every show.
However, when Finkel announces that Heenan will face the ULTIMATE WARRIOR in a weasel suit match, "The Brain" storms the ring and goes
NUTS! Very funny segment.
MSG 6/25/88 [Broadcast version] Very Good quality

2.
The Fabulous Rougeau
Brothers v. The Conquistadors
3.
George "The Animal" Steele
v. Greg Valentine
4.
"The Rock" Don Muraco v.
"Dangerous" Danny Davis (Pretty Funny, as the 210lb Davis is almost
completely ineffective
against the 280lb Muraco. Muraco was about to finish him with a
Tombstone Piledriver, when Greg Valentine runs in
and attacks Muraco.
He also gets in a cheap shot on Superstar Billy Graham for good measure.
5.
Jim Duggan v. One Man Gang
6.
Andre the Giant v. Bam Bam
Bigelow (Andre is choking Duggan relentlessly when Jim Duggan runs in to
make the save.)
7.
Ultimate Warrior v. Bobby
Heenan (Weasel Suit match. The winner is the one who can beat his
opponent and stuff his
opponent into a weasel suit. Do I even NEED to tell you who won
this one? Pretty funny to see Heenan stumble around,
chasing his tail and
falling downin the weasel suit.)
8.
Bad News Brown v. Jim "The
Anvil" Neidhart (Bad News cuts a good promo about how he just WALKED to
MSG from
Harlem, and how the Hart
Foundation "has no Heart")
9.
Randy Savage v. Ted DiBiase
(Steel Cage match. These guys couldn't have a bad match if they
tried. Near the close of the match, some idiot
fan jumps the guard rail
and actually CLIMBS THE CAGE to stop Virgil from interfering.)

3. Bad News Brown cuts another good promo about his upcoming title match with Randy "Macho Man" Savage.
4. Koko B. Ware v. "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig (Hennig was still in the first couple of months of his Mr. Perfect gimmick, and they
were still acknowledging his real name.)
5. Rick Rude comes out to give a "Rude Awakening" to some lucky lady. Unfortunately, HILLBILLY JIM comes in and steals
her away. You know, When Hillbilly Jim is stealing your women, something's wrong.
6. The Bushwackers v. The Bolsheviks (The concession stands must have done record business during this time. I couldn't

must have been running out of food by now.)

Red Rooster gimmick. What they should have done is put over the fact that the Rooster persona was a terrible plan on Bobby Heenan's
part, and had Taylor drop it as soon as he turned face. As a result of this not happening, Taylor will be the Rooster for the rest of his life.)
3. Akeem v. Big John Studd (Studd's first MSG appearance in 3 years. He didn't stay in the WWF long during this run. This was An absolutely
