Following the Royal Rumble, Bass would have a feud with the Junkyard Dog who eliminated Ron Bass during a 20-man Battle Royal at that year's Wrestlemania. Following his feud with the Junkyard Dog, Bass would feud with Brutus 'The Barber' Beefcake and in an episode of Saturday Night's Main Event leading up to the 1989 Royal Rumble, Bass lost a hair versus hair match to the Barber and appeared at the 1989 Royal Rumble without hair.
