00:00The Hort Foundation!
00:07The Young Stallions!
00:12Sika!
00:17Dangerous Danny Davis!
00:23The Killer Bee!
00:29Bad News Brown!
00:32A lot of heavyweights in this one, Jess.
00:34Definitely.
00:35Sam Houston!
00:36You know what amazed me most of all is that everyone who's a participant in this battle royal is not
00:42involved in anything else in WrestleMania IV.
00:44That's right. Did you get a look at the size of that trophy, Gorilla?
00:48Six and a half, perhaps seven footer.
00:50That thing's taller than Euchre's ever been in high heels.
00:53You got one like that at home, Euchre?
00:55Yeah, I paid, as I said before, anybody with any kind of desire at all.
01:00And if you want to pay a price, Gorilla can have those kinds of trophies.
01:04Some of the bigger ones I have cost me well over a hundred bucks.
01:06I love it.
01:09One of the favorites here for the battle royal, Hillbilly Jim.
01:17I know, Euchre, that I had a great time last year with you, and I'm looking forward to having another
01:21great time here this year.
01:22Well, I couldn't believe it, Gorilla, when I got the call from Vince McMahon asking me if I'd love to
01:28participate in WrestleMania IV.
01:30There it is.
01:31The trophy you guys just talked about a minute ago.
01:32Look at the size of it.
01:34Oh, man.
01:34I tell you, I couldn't wait to get here.
01:36Unbelievable.
01:37Well, you're more than welcome, I'm sure.
01:39And we're off and running.
01:40Bell's gone.
01:41We're underway here.
01:43Whole lot at stake.
01:45What a dangerous type match, Jess.
01:47Well, I'll tell you what, Euchre, you'll never see nothing like this in baseball, will you?
01:51Ah, this looks like the final day of cut down day in spring training to me.
01:54I love it.
01:57Everybody pulling out all the stops here in this invitational battle royal.
02:01As the world is watching WrestleMania IV.
02:05Looking at this thing, Billy Martin's gotta be in there someplace.
02:08You think so?
02:08Yeah, I gotta believe it.
02:09I would imagine he's managing outside somewhere.
02:13I'm sure you're aware, Euchre, that the body is going to be behind the broadcast booth as well for baseball.
02:19Yes, I know that.
02:20I heard all about it.
02:21Somebody just got eliminated.
02:22Who was that?
02:23Over the top.
02:24Take a look here.
02:25See if we can pick it out.
02:27There's...
02:28Oh, there it is.
02:28Sam Houston.
02:29Sam Houston gone.
02:30Well, you know, Sam...
02:32Oh, there goes Sitka.
02:33Whoa!
02:33This wasn't the kind of match for Sam Houston because he's kind of light and possibly very easy to put
02:38over the top rope.
02:39Well, Sika certainly isn't high, Jess, and he's a goner.
02:43Well, this...
02:44300 pounds plus.
02:45These things are like street brawls.
02:47Oh!
02:47You can never predict a winner.
02:48Yeah!
02:49Oh, there...
02:50Oh, he's stuck underneath.
02:51He did not hit the floor.
02:54Jumping Jim Brunzel.
02:56Able to get back in there as he went over the top rope, but only hit the apron.
02:59You can go back in under the bottom rope.
03:01What did we start with in this?
03:0320?
03:0320.
03:04Well, we're down to 18.
03:05What's with Animal Steel outside the ring?
03:07He's outside...
03:08I don't...
03:08I'm not sure he ever got in there.
03:10You know, that guy might be smarter than everyone thinks.
03:13Maybe he's gonna wait for everyone to eliminate each other.
03:16Then he'll climb in there.
03:17Well, one of the bees again over the top rope, but not out.
03:22Boy, it's mayhem out there.
03:24Arms and legs flinging everywhere.
03:26Most dangerous match.
03:27I used to hate Battle Royals, Jess.
03:29Speaking of arms and legs, anybody seen Vanna White?
03:32I'm supposed to meet her here somewhere.
03:33Oh, she's definitely here, Hugh.
03:34Yeah, I'm supposed to meet her.
03:35That's my main reason for being here.
03:37That's your main reason for being here, Vanna White?
03:40Yeah, yeah.
03:41I'm supposed to meet her here someplace.
03:43Well, Hugh, do you have any idea that she's in love with me?
03:46Uh, I saw something about that in some tablet.
03:50I met...
03:50No, that's not her.
03:51It was, in fact, the National Examiner, Hugh.
03:54Is that where it was?
03:55Yes.
03:57She wouldn't come here unless she got a date from me.
04:00And I was very upset about that.
04:02Jack Tunney never asked me.
04:03Yeah, she's got a little better taste than that baby.
04:06Oh, look at that, George the Animal.
04:07Whoa!
04:08Pulled from the outside.
04:09The anvil right out of there.
04:11I think that the animal's already out of there as well.
04:15Well, you know, Hugh, if Vanna has good taste,
04:18you know she's less filling there.
04:20Yeah.
04:20I'm very familiar with that.
04:22Will you two stop?
04:24Woo!
04:24Let's get back to wrestling.
04:25The big Russian, Boris Zubkoff,
04:27is being worked over there by the king.
04:32Look at that Nikolai.
04:33He doesn't have a clue how powerful he is.
04:37Whoa!
04:38The strange thing about a battle royal like this,
04:40there's no way to predict a winner in this thing, you know?
04:43Absolutely not.
04:43Anything and everything can happen in there.
04:45A lot of friendships happen in there,
04:47and a lot of enemies, new enemies,
04:49are made in these type of things.
04:50Oh!
04:50There goes one of the Rougeos, Ramon,
04:53and he took somebody with him.
04:55I can't take it out yet.
04:55I think it was a killer bee.
04:56I think both the bees are gone.
04:57That's what it was.
04:57The bees are gone.
04:58You're right, Jess.
04:59Brian Blair, jumping Jim Brunzel, both out of there.
05:04And one of the Rougeos out of there.
05:06JYD still left in there, along with the big guy,
05:08the outlaw, Ron Bass, the king, Nikolai Volkov, Boris Zhukov,
05:13Hillbilly Jim still in there.
05:16And the hitman, yes.
05:18Uh-oh.
05:18Oh, what a backbreaker.
05:21Hey, George Steele.
05:22The outlaw's gone.
05:22I thought this thing is over.
05:23I thought it's over once you're out of the ring.
05:25Referees are having a hard time getting the animal out of there.
05:28Animal Steele ain't even been in there yet.
05:30Well, I think he has.
05:31I think he's been put out over the top already, Jess.
05:33He was never in, Gorilla.
05:35You think so?
05:36He was in for the introduction.
05:37Somebody else just went...
05:40Look at Dangerous Danny.
05:42I didn't expect him to be in there at this point.
05:45Boy, Dr. Frank Jobe would have a picnic at this thing.
05:48Hey, Euchre, you know something?
05:50Yeah, what?
05:51With your lifetime batting average at 200,
05:53that means with every swing you could only hit one guy out of five.
05:57The only thing, if I ever had a good year,
05:59it would have messed me all up now, you know?
06:02Oh, look at that.
06:04That was my favorite.
06:06Hey, that was my favorite.
06:14We got seven or eight.
06:15Bad News still in there.
06:17J.Y.D. still there.
06:19Young Stallions in there.
06:20Both the Young Stallions.
06:21Danny Davis to the fireman's carry.
06:23Davis is gone.
06:24Davis is gone.
06:27And look at the King.
06:29He's just about out there.
06:31I believe that was one of the Young Stallions, Jess.
06:33I think that was Jim Powers who was just eliminated.
06:35Now we're getting down to the nitty-gritty.
06:37We certainly are.
06:38Patera flailing away at the King.
06:42Nikolai comes over and stops him immediately.
06:45Whoa!
06:45From behind, Boris Zhukov did a number there.
06:49At least the guys who went out early got their per diem money.
06:52Wow.
06:52You know what I mean?
06:53Absolutely.
06:54It's the only way to go.
06:55Please.
06:57I'm gonna have trouble, I can tell, here at WrestleMania 4,
07:01sitting between the uke and the body.
07:04You know what's unique out there?
07:05Both Russians are still in there.
07:07Certainly are.
07:08This might be their style of match, you know.
07:14JYD doing a number right now.
07:16On the King.
07:18Go!
07:18And there goes Nikolai.
07:20The big 300-pounder over the top at the hands of Patera.
07:24Hey, USA is in!
07:25Yes, sir!
07:27And Sukov went looking at Nikolai from the outside.
07:30Yes!
07:30Yeah, there went USA, Euchre.
07:32Yeah, well.
07:33Patera with him.
07:35We're down to four.
07:36Oh, make it!
07:37Well, we're down to five now.
07:39We're down to five.
07:39We're down to five.
07:41We got the King Harley Race, Bad News Brown, the JYD.
07:45Paul Roma.
07:45Paul Roma.
07:46Oh, there goes a king!
07:48The king is out of there!
07:50Wow!
07:51You talk about a crown for a king!
07:53What a blast he took!
07:56We're indeed getting down to the fine-tuning of this now.
08:00As it's down to four!
08:01And there goes Paul Roma!
08:02And now it's JYD against Bad News and the Hitman!
08:07Oh, look at this!
08:08Double-team action!
08:09Look out!
08:09Whoa!
08:10Whoa!
08:14Sort of double-cross there, Jess.
08:16Well, I don't think it was really a double-cross.
08:18JYD was just quick enough to get out of the way.
08:21And Bad News hit the Hitman.
08:23And the JYD's on a roll.
08:26Literally.
08:28JYD has got him on their feet here in Atlantic City.
08:33I'm sure if these two guys collect themselves, they could really have a good time.
08:39And that's this guy's expense.
08:42JYD, look out!
08:44Now they're getting it to him.
08:46Double-team effort.
08:47Well, this is what happens when it gets down to two or three people.
08:50You'll see friendships develop and enemies begin.
08:54Obviously, Bad News and the Hitman have formed a bond here to get rid of JYD.
09:03JYD, a tough customer, but two against one, Jess, in a battle royal where anything goes, highly unlikely.
09:09Well, it looks like they're setting up some type of plan.
09:12What's happening here now?
09:13Well, they're working things out between the two of them, how they're going to get rid of the JYD.
09:17Setting up some strategy, Yuke.
09:20You know, that's kind of like talking to the third base coach before you lay down the bunt, Yuke.
09:24You familiar with that?
09:25But then again, in your case, Yuke, you've got to make contact with the ball.
09:28And most of my third base conversations came from the dugout.
09:32JYD trying to find a corner to back into here.
09:35He doesn't want one of them to get behind him, but it's hard to stop that.
09:39Oh, he nailed it with a big roundhouse right.
09:41Well, he's holding his own right now, but Bad News got him from behind.
09:45Bad News with a big roundhouse.
09:49Knocked him right into the middle of the next ring.
09:50Oh, my goodness.
09:52Hitman, and the dog is down.
09:57That's where Bad News does his dirtiest work, too, when he gets an opponent down.
10:01The guy's vicious.
10:02You know, this match might be made for him.
10:04He comes from Harlem.
10:05Absolutely.
10:05You know, this might be a typical Saturday night in Harlem.
10:08Look at the dog holding onto the top rope.
10:10They tried to fling him out of there, but he wouldn't let him.
10:14Try it again, and the dog holding onto that top rope.
10:17Oh, there he goes.
10:19I think maybe these guys have decided to split the purse money, guys.
10:22Yeah, but how are they gonna split the trophy?
10:24Well, you keep it at your place for a year, and I'll keep it at mine for you.
10:29Well, maybe that's what they got in mind.
10:32I'm sure that a bond has been made here.
10:34They're obviously gonna have to tell the referee, or one of them's gonna have to step up.
10:37Oh!
10:38A double cross by Bad News!
10:41That's the last time I'm listening to you guys.
10:43I thought these guys were really friends.
10:44Well, you know, when money's involved, there ain't no friends, you.
10:48You would know about that, wouldn't you, big boy?
10:50Definitely.
10:50Boy, did he do a Pearl Harbor job onto Hitman!
10:53Oh, my.
10:54Bad News!
10:55Double cross them, you.
10:56That just shows you you can't trust anybody in a battle royal.
11:02Oh, man.
11:03Hitman in deep trouble here as he got...
11:04Oh!
11:05Oh!
11:07That's like running into center field wall.
11:09Oh, I wanna tell you, concrete, concrete gorilla.
11:14This Bad News is he's brutal, Jess.
11:17Well, I'll tell you, he's got the Hitman on a roll right now.
11:19He needs to get rid...
11:20There he goes.
11:21Whoa!
11:21There's your winner.
11:22Locked him off.
11:27The winner of the Battle Royal, Bad News Roll!
11:33Bad News, Victoria's here at the expense of the Hitman,
11:37who it seemed that he had formed a pact with, Jess.
11:40Well, it seemed that way, but like I said, you know, all's fair in love and war.
11:45Look at the size of the trophy.
11:48And more important than the trophy, what this is gonna do for Bad News,
11:52it's gonna jump him in the World Wrestling Federation standings,
11:56put him right in line for possible title shot down the road.
11:59Absolutely.
11:59Hey, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
12:01What is it?
12:02Oh!
12:02The Hitman came out of nowhere!
12:07Don't ever double-cross the Hitman!
12:09Look at it!
12:10Is he bent out of shape?
12:11He's got the tro...
12:11Whoa!
12:12I don't believe it!
12:12Oh, he's smashing it!
12:15He's smashing the trophy!
12:17Hitman smashing that seven-foot trophy!
12:21Oh, look at that!
12:22He's destroying it!
12:26He'd like to destroy Bad News as well!
12:29Well, Bad News more or less double-crossed him,
12:32and there's Bad News' trophy out on the floor!
12:34Whoo!
12:38That's why I never wanted to be an MVP,
12:40just for reasons like that.
12:42That makes sense to me.
12:43Everybody gets jealous.
12:45Luke, I'll tell ya,
12:47I don't believe you were ever even in the running for an MVP.
12:50Everybody gets jealous.
12:51That's just why I never wanted to win it, right there.
12:54Good example.
12:55That's why you hit 200, huh?
12:57Yeah.
12:57Keep you out of that running.
12:59Just Bad News certainly wasn't too anxious to get back in there
13:01when the Hitman came back.
13:03Well, the Hitman got double-crossed.
13:05Well, guys, hey, look, it's really been nice.
13:08What are you doing?
13:08It's really been nice being here.
