AWA puts the Fantastics on the block

AWA sends Bob Armstrong to PWF AWA releases- Brian Adias, Dream Machine, Hillbilly Jim, Mike Shaw, The Moondogs, Pat Rose, Randy Rose, Rip Oliver, Spike Huber and Skandor Akbar

Great to have you back! I really enjoyed the year end review. Gets us all updated and ready for 1990. I like the roster you put together. I think you'll get a lot out of these guys. Kerry will be a great champion and is the right guy to build the UWF around. I'm excited to see who Hennig's next challenger will be, so I'll be tuning in next week for sure

1990 and PCW is ready to go! The New Year's special provided a lot of excitement and surprises to set the tone. As usual, PCW is the place to be for the young and upcoming. The managers made their moves to bolster their factions. Cornette's taking on quite the task with a pair of trios. Huge moment for me was Slaughter coming into PCW with the returning Patriots! I loved these guys. Roddy Piper is back in PCW!!! This is big! It was only fitting that he interrupted Rose. Hart comes up just short in his bid for the Pacific title. Victoria, Lee's already proving his worth to the Playboy Club Patriots are off and running. Watch out for this patriotic trio I'm all for a series of Steamboat/Hart matches Sinister's making heads spin by putting together an impressive group. I'm with AD, didn't see Malenko and Eddie joining up. Wow, that was something. Austin's in lone wolf mode I'm liking the Windham comeback story. Vancouver, Iron and Steel are racking up the wins Patriots vs. Midnights, bring it on! Hart's road to the PCW is going to be a rough one. especially going at it with guys like Gordy OWC might be looking at some tag gold soon You can't say Steamboat isnt a fighting champ. Kelowna, The Thrillseekers have been thrilling so far Scotty's gearing up for bigger things Cornette's new trio one ups the other new trio Severn should make another run at the Submission title Speaking of that, with Malenko's new edge, it will be hard getting the title off him Azul retains, but Eddie is going to want more Happy New year Rain! Looking forward to an exciting 1990 in PCW

I don't know about internationally, but in Canada Smackdown wasnt on its' old home Sportsnet since that deal ended at the end of 2024, but wasn't live on Netflix yet either. Instead it's available for us on their Youtube channel: I'm dismayed that they have made it 3 hours now. I was happy that they had reduced Raw to 2 hours. At 3 hours I usually end up waiting and watching it later and fast forward through most of it.

Final minutes of Italian Bon in red Vs Spanish Mechant in black, both balding badly. Michel Saulnier the Chiotte Arbitre himself in charge, good old Couderc on the commentary. Trujillo levers out of a headscissors nicely and does some rope assisted hip tosses that Kid McCoy would have approved of. He reverse front chanceries Asquini then drops and stomps him, just the one so within the rules. Asquini reverse snapmares his way onto the ring apron, ducks a Trujillo uppercut then strikes with his own. They take turns to dodge each others' diving moves. Trujillo takes his time taking a count. Asquini tries another reverse snapmares but Trujillo sinks a closed fist in his stomach, Saulnier lets it by, possibly because he is a heel ref. A TT kick to the grounded Asquini does get him a private warning however. Asquini wins a war of Manchettes, TT gets angry and stompy but Asquini goes through his legs and chest chops him from behind. TT again takes his time getting up.TT goes down a couple more times. Saulnier starts to kick in his heel routine when Asquini questions the slowness of he counts. Asquini reverses a rear waistlock, folds down to let TT jump over him then kips up to knee height to catch him with a snapmares then a dropkick out of the ring, again infuriating Saulnier. Each time TT tries to return, Asquini charges over but Saulnier stops him (so why doesn't he then get in while the going is good?). In the end, Bruno lifts Saulnier out the way and gets his Manchette in on Trujillo. This appears to earn the good guy un premier Avertisement. He protests but to no avail. TT benefits from another slow count. He uses various dirty tactics while Saulnier stands there., eventually putting Asquini's neck on the rope. Saulnier calmly asks TT to back off then, himself!!! - pulls the rope up against Asquini's throat and letting him drop. A bit later, Saulnier does his rope trick again, this time using both hands to shoot Asquini, cranium first. to the mat. TT posts Asquini, he attacks from behind but Asquini knocks him back then uses his legs to slingshot TT into the post then splash him as he falls. TT kicks out at two and Asquini land on Saulnier sending him flying. Saulnier is furious. TaT gets a posting and a sunset flip for a two count, as quini gets 2 for a German suplex into a roll up. TT finally gets the pin with a folding press. Saulnier makes a big show of parading around Trujillo as winner. Basically a vehicle for Michel Saulnier and his heel referee antics but there are some nice pinfall attempt too.

Cooper stays technical for a lot longer than you would expect in this bout but that doesn't make the crowd like him although Kent Walton takes a glass half full attitude, wishing that Cooper could stay technical for longer before the heeling kicks in. I'm like that about Kendo Nagasaki's 1970s bouts. Pete Ross does several toupees (Gilbert LeDuc style inverted cross scissor throw) on Cooper and it gets his goat. He eventually gets a DQ after first accidentally then deliberately attacking the referee. I feel sorry for Cooper here, he tries to be a good boy but the people won't have it and it all goes to pieces in the end. A lot of good solid technical wrestling but I fear certain folk on here will find the ending unforgivable.

Sunlounge Death Match or Cheap location? Jim Breaks, mid 80s, fell out of contention again for the British Welterweight Championship after losing to Danny Collins one too many times as we saw a few pages back but soon got himself a new title, the European Lightweight Championship from Jackie Robinson. He also took the World title from Johnny Saint for a while in 1985. Today he faces Max Hunter, no relation to Rick nor Rebel Ray, at the Stoke Garden Festival in what can only be described at a spare hothouse for plants. There is a visible audience on one side of the ring. perhaps 100 people. Good technical start, Hunter wedges out of side headlock, Breaks spins horizontally on his backside out of a wristlever. Breaks starts work on Hunters arm, putting it in a hammerlock and getting in a stomp. Hunter levers and bridges out of a chinlock. He snapmares Breaks but the champion rolls through. Figure four armscissor on Breaks. Breaks working on Hunter's nose a lot.Hunter makes pin attempts using leverage out Breaks pushes out.Breaks continues work on Hunter's arm. Max gets a double arm on Breaks. Hunter goes to work on a Breaks leg. Breaks attacks the eyes of Hunter and gets told off by zFrank Casey.. Hunter gets a full Nelson but Breaks back kicks to foul his way out. He gets on a chinlock but Hunter double ankles smashes him. Breaks throws Hunter around but he takes it well and finally bounces off the ropes to spring power a headbutt. Armdrags Breaks and gets a two. Hunter tries a reverse snapmares but Breaks drops Hunter, hammerlocked arm first. He then kicks the arm which finally gets him a public warning. A couple of postings where the arm takes the brunt, some stomps on the folded arm and finally a Breaks special and Breaks has the one submission required. Probably the eyepokes would not have been acceptable for ITV but otherwise if British wrestling had TV squash matches Vs enhancement talent, this is what Jim Breaks' ones would look like. Only in a better venue than a greenhouse.

Let's fucking gooooooo !!!! Here we are finally ! Maybe they should do it in some shitty NEOM site too. (the amount of delusion of WWE fans thinking they are not currently still living in Vince's dream... He made the Saudi deals, he made Saudi "their home", he recruited Cody personally and promised him the WWE title at Mania, the upswing of the company began while he was still at the helm. It's crazy that last year's Mania tried to whitewash the entire thing while having Nick Khan and Bruce Prichard show up in the ring at the end. They are running Cody vs Cena at Mania this year. This is STILL Vince's product and vision out there, 100%. Minor details in booking and in-ring style don't change the overall picture of what this company still is)

The only thing that remotely kept my attention was Takagi-Takeshita and even that was disappointing for those two

Reminds me : fuck Netflix forever for cancelling GLOW before I got a final season. Fuck Netflix in general, it's thrash, but for this, fuck them a whole lot.

Joe brings his 2005 form to 2006. Probably not their best match against each other but more entertaining than anything the WWE was putting out. The concussion angle wasn't in good taste, however there was no denying how ruthless Joe was. The only criticism I'd make is that Daniels came across as somewhat hopeless. He's nowhere near as limited a worker as he appeared in this bout, and really should have came with more of a game plan to counter Joe's physicality, but I guess they wanted to continue the storyline of Joe brutalizing him.

This was a good match. They didn't reinvent the wheel, but played to each other's strengths nicely. I really liked the finish. If you're going to dash the fans hopes then at least make it look good.

Been watching WrestleKingdom for two hours and twenty minutes and I don't remember a fucking thing. I think I saw a nice moonsault but none of it matters. The whole thing feels like I'm watching in fast-forward.

In theory, these matches should be getting more exciting as the series goes longer, but they're not. Orton and Benoit have decent chemistry together, however there's only so much they can do if the match isn't laid out in a dramatic fashion. Basically, it finished with another BS ending to set-up the decider as a no-DQ match. That might have been okay if either man was on the verge of winning, but the match never got to that point. I'm not sure what was going on with the booking in the WWE as this kind of stuff is usually their bread and butter.

It seems a bit excessive to have an Elimination Chamber match in January, but I guess they were capping off 2005. There was a serious lack of star power in this match, and I thought it was poorly laid out. The WWE usually does a better job of milking the drama from these main events, but the eliminations were weak and Michaels and Cena bled for no reason. I guess the booker thought having Masters and Carlito outlast the other wrestlers was some sort of clever twist, but I would have much preferred round 25 of Angle vs. Michaels vs. Cena. Kane's elimination was stupid considering the advantage he'd been given and losing Angle early also made no sense. Even Edge cashing in the the briefcase lacked any sort of suspense. Why they had to roll Vince out to announce the cash-in was beyond me. They should have gone with a surprise run-in instead. Cena's performance here was mediocre, but he didn't have much to work with. This was a waste of 50 minutes.

Netflix actually more often puts up 30 1 or 2 season shows that they don't give time to find an audience.

PWinsider & Fightful both report that Royal Rumble 2026 will be in Saudi Arabia next year

Biggest card in the history of your AWA and it delivered on all costs. I especially loved the mix of matches and all the types and titles. It was literally the mixing pot of what makes the AWA great and we've got a lot to look forward to now. The Hulkster is on top of the AWA... there's a couple of guys climbing the ladder to get him... but I have a feeling his biggest challenge hasn't shown up yet.

And we're back! Some smart booking on the elimination match (with a twist). Sugar gets revenge for the breakup of Sweet Dreams, Bullet lets his anger at Idol cost him dearly. Idol cheats Iceman out the door while Adias not only loses his job but he's stupid enough to take a swing a Mr T. Disalvo falls to the numbers game. His bad night continues as he gets waylaid by a debuting JW Storm. Jumbo makes quick work of Jim. The bad nech cost Orndorff against Hansen. Muraco doesn't get the title but perhaps he and Graham are more in sync? The World Tag title match doesn't end in the blow-up i was expecting. Thanks to a bit of help from Mr T, Hogan is able to overcome the Russian Nightmare to hold onto the World Title.

Really enjoyed the sow. The format was easy to follow and the way you used Jim Ross was so realistic! Great job. Looking forward to working with you in the USWA!

A nice recap establishes how things stand in Mid-South heading into the new year. With Kerry on top of the card, you've definitely got a great leading man.

Amazing first part of the show! Love my man Leo Burke getting such a big win. Anvil is now a singles champ, and in such a classy manner. Can't wait to see what terror Cactus Jack brings to the AWA. David comes out on top in a bloodbath with his family enemy. Bring on the rest of the show!
