All-Japan Pro Wrestling - Tokyo, Japan
[Killer Kowalski comes out and has come simple, but disparaging remarks to make about Japanese wrestlers (Kowalski spok in Japanese.) Antonio Inoki, Giant Baba, and Rikidozan show up and shut him down! Harley Race come out and joins in the fun, but chooses to speak English and focus solely on Baba! Rikidozan says his pupils will show their superiority tonight for all of Japan to see!]
"Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers vs. Don Leo Jonathan
Not a poor showing by Jonathan, but the Nature Boy proved himself the better man this evening! The Japanese fans ate up the technical prowess of Rogers, who won with an atomic drop after a lengthy FIGURE FOUR GRAPEVINE!
[Ted DiBiase, King Kong Bundy, and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan come out and describe their winning the World's Tag Team Championship, embellishing to the point of disgust! The Valiants come out and challenge them to a title match. At first the challenge is refused, but after Jimmy got the crowd laughing at DiBiase & Co., The Million Dollar Man had no choice but to accept!]
WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
DiBiase/Bundy (c) vs. The Valiant Brothers
Team DiBiase controlled most of the match with Bundy doing most of the work and Johnny taking most of the punishment. Team DiBiase was scared when Jimmy came in and hit three SUPER ELBOWS on Bundy! Heenan interfered, saving Bundy and the titles! DiBiase finally got the tag and managed to secure a win with the MILLION DOLLAR SLEEPER. The Japanese crowd booed loudly as DiBiase got on the mic and bragged about their win. All fo the sudden the Road Warriors - Hawk and Animal - came out and chased Team DiBiase out of the ring! The crowd went insane as the Warriors posed on the turnbuckles and promised to take the titles away from DiBiase!
NO HOLDS BARRED
Hacksaw Jim Duggan vs. Bruiser Brody
Brody wins in under three minutes, reversing a Dugan charge and hitting the JUMPING KNEE DROP! Brody gets on the mic: "INOKI!!!!!"
Dan "The Beast" Severn vs. Ox Baker
Great match! Severn started off puzzling Baker with his technical mat wrestling, but soon baker used underhanded tactics and blatant cheating to fight back! Baker looked firmly in control until his showboating gave Severn the time he needed to lock in WAKIGATAME and get the submission victory! Severn bows to the crowd and is cheered loudly for his effort. Baker grabs a steel chair and wraps it around The Beast's head!!! Baker leaves in a huff after some unkind words to Severn!
Rikidozan vs. Mil Mascaras
Mascaras won a spirited match after a picture perfect FLYING BODYPRESS to become the new All Japan #1 contender!
STEEL CAGE MATCH
Harley Race vs. Giant Baba
Thrity minute epic! Both men gave it their best. Race was nearly pinned a couple of times, his face crimson from being slammed into the cage repeatedly. Race played possum near the end and hit a gorgeous suplex into a pin for the victory. Race flipped off the crowd, who responded with boos! Security escorted the Kansas City native out of the cage. Baba vowed that Race will pay for his dishonor!

Wrestlers signed for the next All-Japan supercard: Nick Bockwinkel, the Road Warriors, and Antonio Rocca!

ALL-JAPAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
