Live from the Civic Center in Charleston,
West Virginia
August 5, 1997
Fireworks and pyrotechnics blast all around the arena. The WWF logo spins on the brand new TNT wrestling ring... black aprons and turnbuckles with white ropes and canvas. The TNT letters are printed in white on the sides of the ring. Black protective mats surround the ring.
The explosions slow down until they stop as the spotlights move toward Jim Ross and Brian Pillman at the announcer's table.
JR: WELCOME EVERYBODY....to TUESDAY NIGHT TITANS!!! I'm Jim Ross along with Brian F'N Pillman!
Pillman: You SAID it! Brian F'N Pillman!
JR: Well, it IS your wrestling name. But that's as far as it goes!
Pillman: It stands for FLYIN'... that's all.
JR: (rolls his eyes) Two out of three falls tonight. The top two challengers for the World Tag Team Titles...currently held by the Hart Foundation. It's Owen and the Bulldog against the Pearl River Powers.
Pillman: I'm suprised Owen and the Bulldog aren't up complaining to President Piper about this. Two out of three falls! Is Piper TRYING to keep them from wrestling in title matches?
JR: You don't believe that any more then I do. Bret and Neidhart should keep a close eye on this bout. Also tonight...speak of the devil... THE HITMAN! He'll be in action against Raven.
Pillman: They had an altercation during the Vader/Hitman match. It was all just a big mis-understanding. And tonight, I bet Raven will simply... apologize... for what happened. I wonder if the Hitman will.
JR: Aplogize for WHAT?! Raven interfered. He messed that whole match up. If Vader doesn't get him... the Hitman WILL!
Pillman: Raven is simply asserting himself against the top names in the sport. And he's done well. Look... he's #3 ranked!
JR: I take NOTHING away from his ability.
Pillman: Look! The DWA may finally get a win! Fatu and Savio!
JR: Don't sell Vega and Fatu out. They hold victories over two seperate Horsemen teams. They could put up a fight tonight.
Pillman: That match is a JOKE! It's simply Titan Tower trying to get Michaels and Diesel a win so they don't turn on the fans like everyone THINKS they're going to do.
JR: I have heard the rumors. And also tonight... Jade is back in action. She'll be taking on a brand new preliminary wrestler... Yuri Yoshida! Brian, what do you know about her?
Pillman: She has single-handedly raised the value of McDonald's stock... simply by EATING most of it!
JR: What?!
Pillman: Take a look....
JR: Alright... let's get up to the ring...
