The Sheik Tugboat Story - PART 7
Part 7
Two weeks later
SUPERSTARS of WRESTLING
Sgt. Slaughter
Faced with Nikolai Volkoff
The former Soviet
Now American citizen
True battle between
Good and evil
The US and Iraq
Patriot and Anti-American
A back-and-forth battle
Culminated in the ring
Sarge went for a charge
Nikolai side-stepped
He went down
Volkoff for the cover
The General pops up
The referee distracted
Coming down the ramp
The champ!
Slides under the rope
Like a giant ball
Running start
BIG ELBOW
Volkoff falls off
Tugger rolls out
Sarge turns over
Arm draped
Over the carcass
Referee turns around
3 slaps of the mat
The Sarge wins
But the torture
Has only just begun
The Colonel pulls out
His baton of justice
Hands it to the Sheik
Preparing for the
Bringer of pain
WHAP!
One lash
WHAP!
Two lashes
WHAP!
Three lashes
A creepy smirk
Crawls on the face
Of the Iraqi Warship
As Nikolai writhes in agony
On the canvas
HOOOO!!!
All of a sudden
Marching down the aisle
2x4 over the shoulder
American flag high above
HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN
Stomps up the steps
Enters the ring
The flag now leaned
Against the turnbuckles
2x4 still in hands
The Colonel runs in
WHAM!
Blow to his fuel tank gut
The General swings
Misses a haymaker
WHAM!
2x4 to the back
The Sarge runs in
Double sledge prepped
WHAM!
2x4 to the gut
Volkoff slowly rolls
Like a rolling pin
To the floor
Safe
The champ is all alone
The crowd is ELECTRIC
USA!
USA!
USA!
Hacksaw with a battle cry
HOOOO!!!
The Sheik runs in
WHAM!
2x4 to the ribs
NO
EFFECT
The crowd
Hacksaw
STUNNED
WHAM!
2x4 to the back
Like a true warship
NO DAMAGE DONE
The Sheik turns face-to-face
Hacksaw drops the board
One punch
Two punches
Three punches
Bounces off the ropes
WHAM!
The Tugger with a
Full Speed ahead
Torpedo like clothesline
Duggan down
Quick like a cat
The Tugger off the ropes
Jumps high
Legs extended
The Hogan Legdrop
Figuratively decapitated
Legitimately knocked out
The All-American Hacksaw
The Sheik looks over
The American flag
Lonely in the corner
He picks it up
Walks over to Hacksaw
His prone carcass
Drapes the symbol of freedom
Over his body
The fans hushed
An evil grin
Appears on his face
One bounce off the ropes
Jumping up high
BIG SPLASH
A piece of America
Destroyed by the face
That runs the place
The three others
Adnan
Slaughter
Mustafa
Stagger up to their feet
The General hand delivers
The WWF championship
The Sheik stands over
A devastated Duggan
Flag still over him
A message to the roster
A Strike to America
Most importantly
A threat to Hulkamania
The Iraqi Warship
Is
For
Real.
