Complete story — includes the ending

Martial artists Felix Johnson and Aaron Scott ( Mark Dacascos and Stoney Jackson ) recount how their latest bout in the ring ended in a draw. While they are accepting of the draw and of each other, their domineering managers and trophy wives, former fighters Aubrey and Andrea ( Debbe Dunning and Marjean Holden ), absolutely despise one another, and take their anger out on their respective husbands. Fight promoter Wink Barnum ( Wayne Newton ) hears about the intense rivalry both women have, and settles an agreement to enlist their husbands in a televised, no-holds-barred fight to the death. Felix and Aaron, not fond of the idea, hatch a plan of their own.
