This match was very important in my development as a pro wrestling fan so I've blogged about it several times. You can see the start of my original series here.
Because this match is over 35 years old now and it 's almost July 4th, I figured it could benefit from some AI Enhancement.

Prior to match, Sensational "Queen" Sherri has an interview segment and calls out the Warrior. She accuses him of being a coward and ducking "Macho King" Randy Savage. Sherri wants Warrior to come out and grant Savage a title shot. (In reality, they had numerous untelevised matches in late 1990 - early 1991.)

Warrior comes out but he doesn't respond to Sherri. She decides to change tactics and tries to flatter the Warrior. Sherri claims to have admired Warrior from afar.
 |
| Sherri admires Warrior's back, chest and his "beautiful hazel eyes". |
 |
| At first, Warrior seems suspicious but Sherri seems to be winning him over. |
Warrior leaves Sherri humiliated and Randy Savage, who was watching from backstage, promises revenge.
Later, Warrior has a backstage interview and promises to be "the ultimate victor!"
When the match begins, Sgt. Slaughter and his manager General Adnan try to attack Warrior with a flagpole but Warrior just busts through it.
General Adnan heads back to the locker room as the Warrior dominates Sarge in the opening minutes.
At first, it seems like Warrior is heading towards an easy victory but then Sherri comes down to ringside and snitches the Warrior's leg. Warrior chases Sherri down the aisle but Randy Savage is waiting in the shadows and decks the Warrior with a sneak attack.
The Warrior's back is injured in the attack and he's left dazed.

| Warrior struggles to stand up but quickly collapses. |

| Of course, AI isn't perfect. For some reason, Warrior's given a light goatee. |
Can the Warrior make it back to the ring or even defend himself? See part 2 soon.
