Live from Chattanooga, TNAttendance: 8,900Your hosts are Jim Ross & Tony SchiavoneChamber of Horrors MatchThe Steiner Brothers, El Gigante & Sting Vs Vader, The Diamond Studd, Cactus Jack & Abdullah The Butcher Rick Steiner places Abdullah The Butcher in the torture chair and shocks him to win the match for his team. This was a violent, entertaining mess. It's not a good match by any means, but it's watchable and entertaining for what it is. I fully admit that I enjoyed this.**1/2P.N News & Big Josh Vs The CreaturesBig Josh is the original Doink the Clown. P.N & Big Josh win. Well, this was OK for a glorified squash match. It was pretty watchable when Big Josh was in there.*Bobby Eaton Vs Terry Taylor (W/Alexandra York)Alexandra York is Marlena (AKA Terri Runnels) . Eaton wins with a legdrop from the top. This was a really good match between these two. They busted their asses here and the effort was appreciated. My only complaint is that it's a little long.***1/2Johnny B. Badd (W/Teddy Long) Vs Jimmy Garvin (W/Michael Hayes)Johnny B. Badd wins with a punch. Meh. This was a mediocre match to say the least. The only time it got really exciting is when Johnny B. Badd started using some high-flying moves. When he did, a couple of them were sloppy.*1/2Television Championship"Stunning" Steve Austin (C) (W/Lady Blossom) Vs Dustin RhodesAustin retains the title due to a time limit. This was an above average match that really started to get good after a while. The last 5 minutes are especially exciting. Good stuff overall.**3/4Oz Vs Bill KazmaierOz is Kevin Nash. Kazmaier gets the win with a torture rack. I didn't expect Kazmaier to win, but, man this match was crappy. It was quite embarrassing to watch, actually.½*Van Hammer Vs Doug SommersVan Hammer wins easily with a sloppy slingshot suplex. I don't have much to say about this one.DUDLight Heavyweight ChampionshipFlyin' Brian Pillman Vs Ricky Morton (W/Alexandra York)Pillman wins with a flying cross body off the top. This was a disappointingly average match. It moved a bit too slowly at times and they never got into a proper rhythm. Morton's offense is more suited to being a face.**The Halloween Phantom Vs The Z-Man (Tom Zenk)The Phantom wins easily with the Rude Awakening. The Phantom will be revealed later tonight,1/4*Tag Team ChampionshipArn Anderson & Larry Zbyszko (C) Vs The PatriotsAnderson and Zbyszko win, This was a really dull match that killed the energy in the building. I don't know much about The Patriots, nor do I want to after this match. *Paul E. Dangerously unveils The Halloween Phantom. It's "Ravishing" Rick Rude. Rude declared war on Sting.World Heavyweight Championship (2 out of 3 falls)Lex Luger (C) (W/Harley Race) Vs Ron Simmons (W/Dusty Rhodes)Luger wins 2 falls to 1 to retain the title. This was a decent main event. I felt Luger was a little lazy at times, but other than that, I don't have much to complain about. The last 10 minutes are the best part of it. **1/2Overall, this is an average PPV. The main event is decent, but that's about it. The best match on the show is Terry Taylor Vs Bobby Eaton. If you guessed that, you're lying. The only compliment I can give it is that I expected worse.5/10

1. El Gigante/The Steiner Brothers/Us Champ-Sting Vs. Big Van Vader/Diamond Studd/Cactus Jack/Abullah The Butcher - Well, what's that? Come on, that match sucks hard. Electric chair, really?
