This week we find out that referee Larry Sampson who has been the victim of Col. Debeers hateful racism for weeks merely needs to sign a piece of paper to suspend the Colonel for 180 days, so that should be the end of that...or is it??

Of course we hear from the promo master himself John Tolos and last week's tag team main event that spawned from a singles match now leads to.....another singles match.

Get ready for the FURY CAST!!

Gene Jackson and Bob Anderson are back again to take a light hearted, fun look at UWF Fury Hour Episode #8! The Main Event is what Herb Abrams described as being "An Olympian against a Russian just like Rocky 5!" There's so much wrong with that statement...we'll just move past it. Most importantly this is the episode with the INFAMOUS incident where the referee tried to no sell three chair shots from Dr. Death! The debut of "Wild Thing" Steve Ray! The non debut of Larry Zbyzsko, and much more! Guaranteed to feature 100% less Billy Jack Haynes than previous episodes!
