Episode description

An angle that is weird even for wrestling highlights the December 26, 1987 edition of WWF Superstars! * How the Islanders managed to dognap Matilda and Bobby Heenan's role in making the segment work * Something gets into Bruno Sammartino as he spars multiple times with Jesse Ventura, and makes an out of character snide remark * The brilliant Ted DiBiase/Hulk Hogan storyline and how DiBiase losing to Hogan immediately makes it work better * The introduction of "Peggy Sue" from the Honky Tonk Man * More of the Notorious CDG (Craig DeGeorge) than you would ever want * Differences in the '87 Ultimate Warrior compared with what came later * Bam Bam Bigelow and the head tattoos * Rick Rude faces the man who gave him his first WWF defeat * A single set of commercials gets left in this video * The return of Vinnie Vegas Corner, but not without a blooper!
