The fallout of the match sends shockwaves through the promotion, as the National Wrestling Alliance declares it’s finally had enough.

* “Are you a boy or a man?” New Mid-Atlantic heavyweight champion Dory Funk Jr, his new manager Paul Jones and the Unpredictable Dick Slater conspire against young Mike Rotundo.

* Via the magic of videotape, Terry Funk is in action against Jerry Gray, as he demonstrates the dangers of a bunkhouse match for the Boogie Woogie Man Jimmy Valiant.
