Hershey, Pennsylvania

Halloween edition! Terry Funk pinned The Junkyard Dog in a wacky brawl which was fun but just passable as a match. JYD 'branded' Jimmy Hart on his backside after the bout... Backstage the wrestlers were in fancy dress for the Halloween competition. Hulk Hogan was Hercules, Randy Savage and Elizabeth were Tarzan and Jane, King Kong Bundy was Abraham Lincoln, Bobby Heenan was Davy Crockett, but best of all were Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff as Batman and Robin. Lou Albano (Caesar) beat Bundy in a pie eating contest... On Piper's Pit were Uncle Elmer, Hillbilly Jim and Cousin Junior. Piper blamed Ventura for mocking the wedding but Ventura had no regrets. It got physical and the heels ran... In round two of the Halloween competition, Bobby Heenan beat Cousin Junior at Pumpkin Bobbin'... Hulk Hogan & Andre the Giant defeated Big John Studd & King Kong Bundy by disqualification. It may have only been basic stuff but the heat was immense... Intercontinental Champion Tito Santana fought Randy Savage to a lame double count out... A nutty segment at Roddy Piper's house (supposedly) followed showing him dealing with trick or treaters... Ricky Steamboat defeated Mr Fuji in a "Kung Fu Challenge" which was actually just a pro wrestling match. Don Muraco and Fuji attacked Steamboat afterwards... In the deciding round of the Hallowen competition the faces defeated the heels in a Pumpkin Pass contest when Elizabeth dropped the pumpkin. Savage was not pleased with her... To finish Jesse Ventura challenged the hillbillies to a match on the next SNME.
