00:00First time, first from Russia, weighing 313 pounds, Nikolai Volkov.
00:09And his partner from Tehran, Iran, at 258 pounds, the Iron Sheep.
00:19Their opponents, from Sweetwater, Texas, weighing 240 pounds,
00:28Barry Wyndham.
00:33And from Syracuse, New York, 238 pounds, Mike Rotondo.
00:44Ladies and gentlemen, Nikolai Volkov insists that you all rise
00:51and respect his singing of his country's anthem.
00:58The Lord of the Rings
01:07Oh
01:16Oh
01:17Oh
01:18Oh
01:22Oh
01:32Not too much respect, Joe, to Nikolai Volkoff, but look out from behind.
01:38Here we go.
01:43Volkoff.
01:45And the Iron Sheik hammering away.
01:47Watch out.
01:48Win to Menrotundo now.
01:50What?
01:51No.
01:51Nice reversal.
01:56Up goes the Sheik.
02:11One final reminder.

02:17the December 28th Madison Square Garden event and the giant closed circuit color strain.
02:22Tickets go on sale this Monday morning at the Felt Forum box office and all tickets on locations
02:27What a great card.
02:28And as we all know, it's Hulkamania running wild when Hulk Hogan meets the Iron Sheik for
02:33the title on the 28th in the Garden.
02:36Went from behind as Bruno brought out.
02:39Volkoff and the Iron Sheik began the attack.
02:41But now, facing head to head now, it's going to be the Iron Sheik to start off things with
02:47Mike Rotondo.
02:56Keep circling him out.
02:57Locking up now.
02:58Going behind.
02:58Nice maneuver.
02:59Nice reversal.
03:01Over.
03:02Look at the kickdown for the Iron Sheik.
03:04Sheik down.
03:05Also go.
03:05Tapiova.
03:06And this.
03:10Rotondo scoops up the Iron Sheik.
03:12What a potty shot.
03:18Back is made.
03:20From Sweetwater, Texas.
03:21Barry Wyndham with a forearm.
03:25Wyndham now in the rope.
03:27And a shove to the rope.
03:28Off he goes.
03:29Oh, the Iron Sheik.
03:32Spins him around.
03:34Wyndham gets behind him.
03:35Has him up.
03:36Ho, ho, ho.
03:39And the big rush in now.
03:40That's a monster at 317 pounds.
03:45Nikolai Volkoff.
03:47And of the self-slugging.
03:49Look at this.
03:53Volkoff trying to power his way through the match.
03:56Oh, missing.
03:57Right now, flat.
03:58Back now.
03:59Look at that.
04:00Drip.
04:00Pick that kickback.
04:03Another one.
04:05Oh, my God.
04:06Barry Wyndham and Mark Rotondo.
04:10Holding their own.
04:12Maybe doing more than holding their own.
04:15The big, powerful rush.
04:16It pulls him over.
04:17Another fill.
04:18On track kick down there.
04:24Passes Volkoff.
04:25Backing Barry Wyndham to the corner.
04:26Not the place to be.
04:28With a big man, Mark Volkoff.
04:29Missing to the right.
04:30Orange target.
04:31Barry Wyndham.
04:32Another one.
04:35Wyndham now.
04:35Parker set him up.
04:37Coming off the road.
04:42Wyndham.
04:43With more damage to the back now.
04:45Back to Volkoff.
04:48Oh, no.
04:52Nikolai.
04:52Reaching over.
04:53Tagging the Iron Sheep.
04:56The Sheep now on Barry Wyndham.
04:58Let's go, Barry.
05:00Let's go, Barry.
05:03Let's go.
05:03Let's go.
05:04Back to the half.
05:05Wyndham try to make the tag.
05:07And done.
05:09Whip.
05:10And what a tough kick that line.
05:13Rotundo.
05:13Rotundo.
05:14Chips him up.
05:17The Iron Sheep now.
05:19To the ropes.
05:20Like Rotundo.
05:21Hugs him up.
05:22Airplane's here.
05:26Rotundo.
05:27Rotundo covers.
05:28He got one.
05:29Oh, no.
05:32Wyndham.
05:34Ring ushered back.
05:35Trying to make a tag.
05:36Yes, legally he does now.
05:38And they keep the Iron Sheep in there.
05:42What a match.
05:43Oh, look out.
05:44Here comes the Bulldog.
05:45Yeah.
05:47Cover.
05:48One.
05:50Oh, Volkoff.
05:51Wait a minute.
05:52Volkoff.
05:53It looked like Volkoff intentionally struck the referee.
05:58I think they may have done that on purpose because it looked like the Sheep was going to be counted
06:02on offense and he didn't want to get beat on a pen and this way it's an automatic disqualification.
06:07There it is.
06:10What an upset.
06:13What a fabulous match.
06:16What an upset.
06:18Unbelievable.
06:20The winners of this vote as a result of a disqualification, the team of Barry Windham and Mike Rotundo.
06:33Unbelievable victory for these two who have really electrified this capacity crowd.
06:39Let's take you now to an interview.
06:41Here we go.
