By Brian Bayless on 1st January The crowd chants boring then Horner takes Horowitz over with an armdrag then a dropkick in a fast-paced sequence to wake up the crowd. Horner works the arm for a bit as the crowd is into his quick offense.
Horowitz ends up tossing Horner to the floor as he takes control of the match. Horowitz gets two with a gutwrench suplex then covers two more times after that but cannot get the win.
Horner sneaks in a small package but Horowitz returns the favor then stomps away. Horowitz continues to beat on Horner, who manages to get a sunset flip, then he gets nearfalls with a slam and a Russian leg sweep. Horowitz hip tosses out of an abdominal stretch and gets two with a jackknife cover before applying an abdominal stretch on his own and even manages to pat himself on the back.
Horner breaks the hold then they end up clotheslining each other then Horner gets up first and fires away. Horner gets a decent applause after the win. Thoughts: Good opening match. Warlord flexes after shoving Neidhart against the ropes. Neidhart then comes back with a dropkick and sends him outside with a clothesline. Neidhart hammers away then works the arm until the Warlord catches him with a backbreaker then targets the back.
Neidhart manages to use the ropes and fall on top of Warlord for a two count. Thoughts: Crappy finish to a nothing match as they seem to be continuing the Neidhart vs. Powers of Pain feud through singles matches. DiBiase tells us that Jake Roberts is really not here tonight because he is scared, not due to injury. DiBiase then offers Dusty a few hundred dollars to take and have a good time because if not he will get embarrassed in the ring.
