So Lanny Poffo worked with Hogan and Beefcake from Fall 89 until a few weeks after Mania 6. He then dropped off a cliff on the depth chart and spent months doing jobs around the horn to Koko.
Around Summerslam he has a few random matches with Haku of all people.

After 6 months or so of being AWOL as a TV presence, he gets to do some SNME comedy for OktoberFest.

Looks like we even have video but it's earlier from 1988! Good preview for what could've been in 1989.

Who were the team members? Fatu was in WWF at that point as the Sultan, correct? Maybe there was a gap. And I don't remember an American Patriots team from that era.

Who did Heroes of Wrestling Samu and Tonga Kid? Actually I seem to recall SKeith making fun of how fat Fatu was at that PPV.
Samoan Gangsta Party?

I'm curious if the Patriots were actually Champion and Chip coming back after 6 years. Feels more like some Indy roid team or something

From Cawthon's site it looks like a dark match before a Nitro. So, unless there's a live review somewhere, we might never know.
