Episode 31 - Superstars - July 25th

 


 
 
On this week's 'Superstars':

"Mean" Gene Okerlund detailed the fallout from "Rowdy" Roddy Piper's attack on "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka on last night's 'Wrestling Challenge'. The WWF board considered fines and suspensions, but Snuka wants Piper in the ring. The WWF board has acquiesced to these demands, but only in an unsanctioned, no holds barred match. The match will take place this coming Saturday night in the Boston Garden.
 
 "Mean" Gene Okerlund interviewed "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, who reviewed footage of his attack on Snuka and gloated about it.

"Superfly" Jimmy Snuka spoke about Piper's attack on him, and vowed to get revenge in Boston.

"The Rock" Don Muraco pinned The Brooklyn Brawler.
