During the match, McMahon interviewed Bret asking about Bret&#8217;s condition. Bret said he would probably be out of action for a month. McMahon stressed that Bret would be returning after the first of the year and may once again be champion&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The Survivor Series Encore Presentation was plugged with a teaser summary of the live event&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>(2) I.R.S. pinned Adam Bomb.

During the match, McMahon talked with Bob Backlund, who &#8220;showed up uninvited.&#8221; There was no talk about the Bodies or even play-by-play of the match. McMahon asked Backlund if it was true that after Backlund&#8217;s title loss at the Garden, an interviewer asked him about the loss and Backlund acted as if he hadn&#8217;t lost the match yet. Backlund said he was in shock. Backlund promised he would exterminate Diesel as he talked right over a commercial break. After the commercial break, Backlund promised to procure the chicken wing on McMahon before he leaves the WWF&#8230;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Read the full PWTorch Newsletter from 30 years ago this week.
