Abdullah the Butcher turns face! Plus a promo from his new manager Mr. Deepak (1986)

 

Abdullah the Butcher shocked the fans when he turned face the night of April 28, 1986 in the Paul Sauve Arena. Here we pick up the ending of a tag team main event between Abdullah and Kamala (who was brought in by Eddie Creatchman for a few shots in International Wrestling) against Rick Martel and Austin Idol (who was a replacement for Dino Bravo, who had to undergo an operation for appendicitis around this time). Following this match is a crazy promo from Mr. Deepak (a.k.a. Deepak Massand/Singh, a former wrestler himself and manager to The Great Antonio), the man who managed Abdullah during his face run in International Wrestling Montreal. Eddie's son Floyd also gets involved in the post-match fracas. Milt Avruskin and Gino Brito provide commentary.
