Man, the USWA Title gets recognized as a World Championship, and all of a sudden they go upgrading the Central States belt they inherited from World Class into a Mid America Championship? I see how it is..... Anyway, you couldn't have a better first champion than Dick Slater. Looking forward to seeing who steps up to fight him for it. Lance Von Erich takes the step into the big time and comes away with the win! Savoldi didn't look happy, but he's had a rough few months. I'm sure he'll be fine.... Karachi Vice gloating about their "big win" over The Gunslingers. Now they have The Nightmares to worry about. They have people coming at them from all directions, but it doesn't seem to be shaking their confidence. Jesse Barr making quite the impact on his first night. He could make quite the impact here, if he doesn't crazy his way out the door! and I wrote that before he attacked Mike George! George is getting himself a TV Title Shot on Christmas Eve, which will be a big match, but that's if he makes it! Kevin Kelly gets a nice win, and then tells it like it is! I hope this is the beginning of a nice singles run for "Mr. Magnificent." I was having fun with him in the WWF, and I think he can do well here in USWA. As if the tag team scene here in the USWA isn't already ri-god damn-diculous, now the Fabulous Ones are coming!! Wow!! Speaking of the tag division, the new Central States Tag Team Champions, and my boys, The Bruise Brothers pick up a nice win as that train keeps rolling! and then we get a Champagne promo! This quarter hour is doing huge numbers!! Billy Jack Strong tosses Flowers around like he's nothing! That's how you make an entrance! Welcome to the USWA indeed!! Thanks to Mr. Funk for putting over Texas All Star's Seasons Beatings on USWA TV. Live from the Tarrant County Convention Center in Fort Worth, Texas on Friday Night 12/18. Tickets available at all major outlets! Myers picks up the cheap win in the main event of Afi, after Flowers gets involved, then Strong chases him off! I think this feud is going to get ugly! Lawler closes the show and announces that he is going to wrestle Ron Fuller on Christmas Eve. Hmmm.. somehow I have a bad feeling about this. USWA has been on a roll, and coming out of WrestleStorm things are changing for sure, but the company is still hot! Loving it Spaldoni!

PN News and Cannonball Grizzly are the same guy. Nailz is already in the game as Kevin Kelly

(Taped on Monday December 7th, 1985 and airing Friday Night December 11th) From the beautiful Will Rogers Complex in Fort Worth. This is.... featuring the worlds greatest professional wrestlers from... We cut to ringside where Marc Lowrance is standing by with a microphone. Marc Lowrance: Hello Everyone! Welcome to the Will Rogers Coliseum and to Championship Sports. We are here on KTVT for another exciting edition of Texas All Star Wrestling! I am your host Marc Lowrance, and we are just one week away from our huge Seasons Beatings event at the Tarrant County Convention Center! That event will air live as it happens, right here next week on KTVT before Texas All Star takes a few weeks off so our wrestlers and crew can enjoy the holiday season with their families. But there is still plenty to be decided heading into Seasons Beatings and it will happen right here tonight. First we will find out who will meet Brian Adias in the finals of the Texas Television Title Tournament as "Outlaw" Joel Deaton will take on The Texas Ranger. We will also see The Tribal Nation of Mark and Chris Youngblood defend the Texas Tag Team Titles against the team they defeated for them just a few weeks ago The Highwaymen. The winners of that match will go on to defend against The Glamour Boys who will also be in action here tonight. Then the man who will challenge the New USWA Heavyweight Champion Terry Funk, Johnny Mantell will be in singles action tonight. I am told that Terry Funk has sent in comments directed toward Mr. Mantell that we will see later. Ladies and Gentleman, let's head to the ring for our opening contest and determine who will go to the final of the Texas Television Title Tournament. 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -"Outlaw" Joel Deaton vs The Texas Ranger- This one was hot from the opening bell as Deaton charged the Ranger, but Ranger saw him coming, ducked behind him and rolled him up for a near three count. After that it was back and forth action with both men exchanging control several times, and both scoring several near falls. The end came when The Texas Ranger whipped Deaton into the buckles and followed him in with a clothesline. Ranger lifted Deaton onto the buckles for a top rope maneuver of some kind, but Deaton managed to kick the Ranger away. One of the Ranger's arms caught a glancing blow on the referee, which allowed Deaton to slide off the buckle, grab his bull rope which was hung across it, and blast The Texas Ranger in the head with the cow bell. The masked man crashed to the canvas, Deaton put the bullrope back on the buckle, then dropped down and covered him. The referee still half dazed turned around and counted the fall. Winner: "Outlaw" Joel Deaton Marc Lowrance: Come on now! A complete miscarriage of justice there as Deaton blasted The Texas Ranger in the head with that cow bell. But the referee didn't see it, and unfortunately the referee's decision is final. "Outlaw" Joel Deaton advances to the final of the Texas Television Title Tournament and will face Brian Adias to crown the first Texas Television Champion. "General" Skandor Akbar comes from the back and makes his way to where Marc Lowrance is standing. Marc Lowrance: To what do we owe this pleasure, General? Skandor Akbar: I hear that tone in your voice Lowrance, and I am in no mood! Last week The Spoiler came out here without me and got himself placed into a match against Tom Jones where his mask will be on the line against the career of Jones. The stipulations state that there will be no count outs, no disqualifications, and that I am not allowed at ringside! Marc Lowrance: That's correct. Skandor Akbar: Quiet Lowrance! I didn't ask you. So I told The Spoiler. I told him that he was a fool for allowing himself to be goaded into a situation such as this. What did he do? He Fired Me!! Can you believe this!! No One Fires Skandor Akbar!! No One!! So Spoiler, I hope you and Jones kill each other. I hope you get embarrassed in front of everyone. Because you needed me, a whole lot more than I needed you! Skandor Akbar will be out rebuilding Devastation Incorporated into something bigger and better, while you risk it all against Tom Jones. Hope it was worth it you masked moron! Akbar storms off toward the dressing room as Marc Lowrance stands with an amused look on his face. -Commercial Break- Marc Lowrance: Welcome back to Texas All Star Wrestling on KTVT. Up next we have the man who next week competes in a Loser Leaves Town, Texas Death Match against his bitter rival "El Jefe." Let's head down to the ring where Cocoa Samoa is set for action. 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -Cocoa Samoa vs The Bounty Hunter- Samoa is a savage tonight as he goes right after the masked man with chops and headbutts that have The Bounty Hunter reeling. A whip into the ropes and a kick to the midsection doubles over the big masked man, and a leaping headbutt appears to knock him out cold. Cocoa rolls him face up and ascends to the top rope, where a big Samoan Splash ends the night for sure. Winner: Cocoa Samoa Marc Lowrance: I am standing by with your winner, Cocoa Samoa. Cocoa, next week you compete against Jose Estrada in the big Loser Leaves Town, Texas Death Match. Anything you want to say before that match. Cocoa Samoa: Estrada. You got no respect for anybody bruddah. You nearly put out Joe Lightfoot's eye, and then you tried to do the same to me. Next week, Texas Death Match means I can do whatever I have too. That's bad news for you. Cocoa Samoa isn't going nowhere. I hope you are ready for war bruddah. Marc Lowrance: Ladies and Gentleman, Cocoa Samoa! We'll be right back!! -Commercial Break- 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -The Glamour Boys (Steve Doll/Steve Simpson) vs Snake Brown/Jack Spade- Just before the bell could ring on this encounter, Dark Journey came from the back and plucked the microphone from the hands of Marc Lowrance. She then headed into the ring. She looks both Doll and Simpson up and down with a smile on her face, and then speaks. Dark Journey: So you two are The Glamour Boys that I hear so much about. I can see why the girls around here like you so much. The long hair, the lean muscular physiques, and the boyish good looks. Yes indeed, it makes total sense why a bunch of dumb girls from Texas would think you two are something special. Major heat from the audience on that one. Dark Journey: Me on the other hand, I like real men. Rugged men. Men who look like they've seen a thing or two. Not like you two boys.... Steve Doll comes over and pulls the microphone away from Dark Journey to loud cheers. Steve Doll: You got a point to make here lady? Dark Journey doesn't look impressed and holds her hand out for the microphone. The crowd is screaming "NO" but Doll gives it back to her after faking it once or twice. Dark Journey: As I was saying before you so rudely interrupted me, little boy. I like my men tough, rugged, handsome. So since these people think you two Glamour Boys are such a big deal, and apparently so do you... How about we send these two losers to the back, and you two accept a real challenge and face my men in tag team action, right here tonight! Steve Simpson motions for the microphone, which Dark Journey hands him with a smile. Steve Simpson: Yeah. Sure. Whatever Lady. As long as it shuts you up! A look of anger crosses the face of Dark Journey as the fans in the Will Rogers Coliseum go crazy, but the smile quickly returns as she's gotten what she wanted. Soon after "You Shook Me All Night Long" hits as the curtains part, and Dark Journey's team make their way toward the ring..... Marc Lowrance: Well, I guess this is official! 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -The Glamour Boys (Steve Doll/Steve Simpson) vs "Hollywood" John Tatum/"New Jersey Heartthrob" Jack Victory w/Dark Journey- This is fast paced action from the opening bell as both teams are trying to get the upper hand, and the momentum keeps shifting between them. Victory and Tatum manage to gain control with some double teaming in the early minutes and work over Simpson pretty good, but he makes a hot tag to Doll who comes in and really takes it to Victory. Victory manages a tag to Tatum, but he doesn't fair a whole lot better against Doll and The Glamour Boys seem to be rolling when the announcer calls two minutes remaining. Victory tags back in, and soon after is met with a double dropkick from the Glamour Boys that rocks his world. Doll and Simpson begin making frequent tags and really work over Victory. With about forty five seconds left, Simpson whips Victory into the ropes a little too close to Tatum who tags himself in, but Simpson doesn't see it. Simpson goes on to hit Victory with a backdrop, and tags in Doll. Both men scale turnbuckles looking to hit Glam, Slam, Thank You Ma'am... which is when Tatum runs across the apron and shoves Simpson off the buckle where he crashes fifteen feet to the concrete floor. Doll drops down off the buckle, as Tatum is entering the ring, but a groggy Victory manages to snatch the foot of Doll halting his momentum, allowing Tatum to lash out with his California Kick, catching Doll square on the jaw. Tatum quickly covered Doll, as Victory rolled out of the ring, and the referee counted the three with seconds left to spare! Winners: "Hollywood" John Tatum/"New Jersey Heartthrob" Jack Victory w/Dark Journey Marc Lowrance: I don't believe it! Just one week before they compete for the Texas Tag Team Titles, the number one contenders have been defeated! The Glamour Boys are stunned, the audience is stunned, and Tatum, Victory, and Dark Journey look like they just let the world in on a secret they already knew. Unbelievable! Folks, we'll be right back. -Commercial Break- 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -Johnny Mantell vs Dr. Kilemoff- The white masked Dr. Kilemoff was no match for Mantell this evening as Johnny made short work of the newcomer. Mantell looked crisp and on point, and his neck injury certainly appeared to be behind him. He ended the match with his patented Russian Leg Sweep, floated over into a pinfall. Winner: Johnny Mantell Marc Lowrance: I am here with your winner, and the man who challenges Terry Funk for the USWA World Heavyweight Championship next week, Johnny Mantell. Now Johnny, before we hear from you, we have a video tape that arrived earlier today. Let's roll that footage. Marc Lowrance: We just heard from the USWA World Heavyweight Champion. Let's now hear from the man who will challenge him, your thoughts Johnny Mantell? Johnny Mantell: Marc Lowrance, since the moment I came back from my injury I have been ready to take on any challenge that's been put in front of me. Terry Funk is without a doubt the biggest challenge I could possibly face, but if he thinks for a minute that he is going to scare me off, he has another thing coming. Johnny Mantell is going to be ready, and god willing I am going to bring home that World Heavyweight Title! Mantell heads for the dressing room to huge cheers from the crowd. Marc Lowrance nods to the camera as the show heads for commercial. -Commercial Break- Marc Lowrance: Welcome back to Texas All Star Wrestling on KTVT. It is now time for our Main Event, a rematch from several weeks ago when the debuting Mark and Chris Youngblood shocked everyone by upsetting The Highwaymen and winning the Texas Tag Team Titles. Hickerson and Duncum have been uncharacteristically quiet since that night, and you know they are looking to regain the titles. Meanwhile The Tribal Nation will be looking to ride the momentum they have going their way. It should be quite a contest. Let's head to the ring. 1 Fall, TV Time Remaining -The Tribal Nation (Mark Youngblood/Chris Youngblood) vs The Highwaymen (Bobby Duncum/Phil Hickerson)- Texas Tag Team Titles The Highwaymen looked shockingly calm as they headed to the ring and waited for the match to start. The Tribal Nation got a big reaction from the crowd, already favorites after only one appearance with the company. Once the bell rang this was a surprisingly well contested match in the opening minutes, as both teams exchanged holds and maneuvers. The Highwaymen got the early advantage working over the younger Chris with some high impact offense, including Duncum scoring a long two count off of a particularly brutal clothesline. Eventually Chris leapfrogged over Duncum on a backdrop attempt and tagged in his brother. Mark went to work with chops, hip tosses, and dropkicks on both members of The Highwaymen and then started trying to wear down Hickerson with a surfboard. Eventually this led Duncum in to interfere, which brought Chris into the ring and things devolved into a four way brawl. The referee was able to break it up, and get things back in order. Again Mark was able to take control, and again he got the best of Hickerson. This time when Duncum came in the ring, Mark blistered him with a huge tomahawk chop that sent him out to the floor. Chris met him out there, and the two of them began brawling on the floor. In the ring, Mark went back after Hickerson, blasting him with several chops that sent him out of the ring. Mark followed him out, and soon the pier six brawl with all four men was happening at ringside. The referee started counting, and Hickerson managed to smash Mark into guard rail and slide back into the ring at eighteen. Mark didn't make it, and The Youngbloods were counted out. Winners, by Count Out: Phil Hickerson and Bobby Duncum, The Highwaymen Marc Lowrance: The Highwaymen have won the match, but the Texas Tag Team Titles do not change hands on a count out, so the Youngbloods will retain the titles. A fact that The Highwaymen are not happy about. Phil Hickerson is in the face of the referee, and here comes Frank Dusek! Frank Dusek comes marching to ringside and grabs the microphone from Marc Lowrance. Frank Dusek: ALL RIGHT! KNOCK IT OFF! RIGHT NOW!! Mark Youngblood pulls Chris Youngblood away from Bobby Duncum, and Duncum quickly rolls into the ring where Hickerson is now staring at Dusek. Frank Dusek:Hickerson, Duncum... you both know that the belts don't change hands on a count out. However, you did win the match, so I'll tell you what we are going to do. Next Friday night at Seasons Beatings, The Tribal Nation will defend the Texas Tag Team Titles against both The Glamour Boys and The Highwaymen in a triangle match. "Now hold on a darn minute....." Everyone in attendance turns to see John Tatum with a microphone come walking out of the dressing room with Jack Victory right beside him. John Tatum: If you're just out here handing out title shots Frank Dusek, what about us? Frank Dusek: What about you? John Tatum: The Highwaymen get beat fair and square a couple weeks ago, and the best they can do tonight is a count out, and they get another shot? But earlier tonight we beat your number one contenders fair and square in our first match as a team, and we get nothing? Fair's fair Dusek, we want our shot! Frank Dusek: As much as I hate to admit that you two are right, you are. Fine. At Seasons Beatings we are going to have ourselves a Four Corners match for the Texas Tag Team Titles. For now though, you two boys better look out behind you. Tatum and Victory turn around only to be met with right hands from Simpson and Doll! It only takes a few moments for The Highwaymen and The Youngbloods to enter the fray and then all four teams are brawling around ringside!! Marc Lowrance: It's chaos at ringside Ladies and Gentleman! That is all for Texas All Star Wrestling this week. We thank you so much for joining us, be sure to tune in next time, right here on KTVT for our Seasons Beatings Super Spectacular! Until then, I'm Marc Lowrance and....wait...what's happening in the parking lot!! We cut outside of the Will Rogers Coliseum where we see a motorcycle that has been run over by a pick up truck! Another motorcycle lays on its side, and a third is parked several feet away. Near the bed of the pick up truck, "Wild" Bill Irwin is exchanging haymakers with Adrian Adonis. On the ground near the fallen motorcycle, Black Bart and Mike Miller are having a knock down, drag out brawl. From around the side of the pick up truck, we Tim Brooks get thrown onto the concrete and roll a bit. From behind the truck comes the man who threw him, and presumably the partner for the six man bunkhouse match, "Outlaw" Ron Bass. The wild brawl between all six men continues as the show fades to black. Friday December 18th, 1985 Tarrant County Convention Center Fort Worth, Texas Terry Funk vs Johnny Mantell w/Sunshine - USWA World Heavyweight Title "Cowboy" Scott Casey w/Sunshine vs Dory Funk Jr. - Texas Heavyweight Title The Tribal Nation (Mark/Chris Youngblood) vs The Glamour Boys (Steve Doll/Steve Simpson) vs The Highwaymen (Phil Hickerson/Bobby Duncum) vs "Hollywood" John Tatum/"New Jersey Heartthrob" Jack Victory w/Dark Journey - Texas Tag Team Titles - Four Corners Match Brian Adias vs "Outlaw" Joel Deaton - Texas Television Title Cocoa Samoa vs "El Jefe" Jose Estrada - Loser Leaves Town, Texas Death Match "Killer" Tim Brooks/"Mean" Mike Miller/Adrian Adonis vs Black Bart/"Wild" Bill Irwin/"Outlaw" Ron Bass - 6 Man Bunkhouse Brawl "Mr. Ebony" Tom Jones vs The Spoiler - No Count Out, No DQ, Managers Barred from Ringside. Tom Jones Career vs The Spoilers Mask "Iron" Mike Sharpe vs Jeff Gaylord

I don't particularly care to watch Marko wrestle. Not so much for the usual biases that get thrown at him, I just legit fear he is going to break something badly every time he steps in the ring. But, while it wasn't my particular genre of music, he was really good. I hope that Tony Khan, or Jericho, or someone is looking out for him and acts on that, because that shit would probably sell.

Wow. I really hope that Marko Stunt was just trying to make it far enough in wrestling to launch a musical career. Because, that was actually really good.

Just an update from my last update...... (assuming what is currently posted on the front page is all correct) MACW currently has 62 people on their roster, 1 of them will be retiring at the end of the year, so they need to cut 6 people before 1/1. NWA currently has 61 people on their roster, 1 of them will be retiring at the end of the year, so they need to cut 5 people before 1/1. Pacific currently has 65 people on their roster, 0 of them will be retiring at the end of the year, so they need to cut 10 people before 1/1. WWF currently has 60 people on their roster, 0 of them will be retiring at the end of the year, so they need to cut 5 people before 1/1. Everyone else is currently under the 55 person limit.

War Games 94 was awesome! 93 was pretty terrible, and everything after 94 sucked....but 94 was awesome.

I am very much looking forward to this as Puroresu has always been something of a blind spot for me. I know the names, but apart from watching comps of folks like Brody, the Funks, and Cactus Jack in Japan and a shit ton of Hayabusa, my knowledge is not where it should be!. So while it will be your take on it, I look forward to getting a better feel for the players involved. The Cobra returns from his sojourn to the States and sets his sights on Tiger Mask and the Junior Title. I do know these two, and that should lead to some exciting encounters. Had to look up what the manjigatame was, so I am already learning! Keeping Tenryu and Inoki apart while letting the rookies work is classic, smart booking! Inoki/Fujinami on New Years is a huge match! Speaking of Fujinami, he picks up a big win in the semi-final with Kimura. I don't know Hamiguchi, but I know a win over Choshu is a big deal. Glad to see Mark Fleming here. He seems like a guy who could flourish in Japan, despite never making it in the States. Maeda/Kido again aren't guys I am super familiar with, but a win over the IWGP Champion even in singles competition shows me that they are a huge deal, and will be formidable challengers for the Tag Team Titles. Will definitely be looking forward to seeing Fujiwara in action! Awesome start man! Looking forward to the 1/4 show!

I guess when War Games can't be a bloody, feud ending brawl between people who hate one another, you have to make it a plunder filled spot fest. That being said, if anyone came out of that making me want to see more of them, it was Dakota Kai. Girl took a fucking beating, and kept coming back. Her bodyguard may have gotten the pin, but I would much rather see Kai get the belt from Io and have a nice chicken shit run with Gonzalez helping her keep the belt at every turn.

I really enjoyed the U-Cosmos fed that you had going in the Millenium Project @superkix, so I am excited to see what you do here! Welcome aboard! Edger, welcome back to the party!

Texas All Star sends: Ricky Vaughan, Joe Lightfoot, Joe Savoldi, and a wrestler to be named after my Seasons Beatings show on 12/18 to USWA for: Corporal Kirchner, Sweet Brown Sugar, Rip Oliver, George Wells, and DJ Peterson

WrestleStorm has finally arrived!! Right off the bat, we get the announcement of the USWA Heavyweight Title becoming the USWA World Heavyweight Title! That's how you start a show!! Bassarab and Doring kick things off with a hard hitting draw. Good call, as these two both have big things ahead of them. 8 Man Tag gets a surprise entrant in Billy Jack Strong. Will be interesting to see him in a babyface role. Chaotic match ends with the babyfaces standing tall as the fans go nuts. Always a good ending, and a great way to bring a bunch of lower card feuds together, and potentially to a close. Champagne Morrow is such a great creation. I really hope he gets a run with one of the mid card titles sooner or later. It seems like Kelly and Peterson just plain don't like each other no matter where they are! Sad to see DJ go, but I'll make a bet that he does well in his new home! Yeah!! Ripper Morgan puts down Ayala! Nasty match, and Morgan looks like a monster. Not precisely sure what Kai making him "totally unleashed" means, but I assume it's bad news for everyone else in the USWA! NICE!! Bruiser Brothers make short work of The Elite, and bring home the Central States Tag Team Titles! Really enjoy this team, and I am happy that they took the gold! Wow. St.Clair/SBS sounds like it had MOTY potential. From the opening handshake, to St. Clair scolding his manager for interfering, this definitely sounds like my kind of wrestling. The reign of St. Clair continues, and the prestige of the TV Title just continues to rise. Going to be hard to top this one tonight. There is the war I have been expecting between the Rich's and Borne/Oliver! A total brawl and bloodbath from the very beginning. Chairs, trash cans, and then the handcuffs come out! Rich's finish it with a Spike Piledriver on the floor!! Oliver goes out on the gurney, and that's how you end a blood feud!! Mike George finally has back up and it's the original Technicians! They come in handy taking Skaaland out of the equation, and Mike George puts Greg away to end this rivalry! Armstrong and Cooley dethrone the Violent Gentleman!! Wow, didn't see that happening!! Then they get jumped by Tommy and Johnny Rich? Well, this USWA cross over just got real interesting! Not sure where this battle is taking place, but I am excited for it!! Uggh. I hope Colon and Singh kill each other. Well written fight, I just really hate both guys, so it's hard to get excited! Gunslingers/Karachi Vice is a fight from the moment it starts and then we fill the fans with false hope as we get the 2nd referee title victory!! I can almost hear the boos when that decision is announced! Great way to keep both teams strong, and I appreciate you taking good care of my two top babyfaces! I had the feeling that Dream Machine would pay for his actions leading into WrestleStorm, and he certainly did. Slater whipped that ass and took his title. Bring on the Dick Slater/Champagne Morrow feud!! Ha Ha! The Vin Man interrupts The Grapplers and gets destroyed for it. YES!! THE FUNKER BRINGS HOME THE GOLD!! Uncle Terry Did It!!! What a war!! Lawler will be back for his belt sooner than later I am sure, but right now, The Funker is the Heavyweight Champion of the World!! I Love It!! Holy Shit Spaldoni, What a Show! From top to bottom, WrestleStorm certainly brought it! Lots of feuds came to a close, some new ones started, and the USWA is looking awesome heading into 1986. Let the era of The Funker begin!!

You Sir, are the king of the opening segment. From the dandruff explanation, to the t-shirts on the Fabulous Blondes, to the shots at Solie and Lance Russell, to RPG explaining the Otis reference, I was loving it from top to bottom. Fantastic shit. Dynamite Duo/Fabulous Blondes is a feud I can get behind for sure! Two of my favorite teams in the game. Lord Boyd with a nice win and an interview that will certainly endear him to the Twin States fans! Man, Bob Armstrong is on a roll! He is dispatching everyone en route to taking his shot at Mr. Money. Be very interested to see what, or who Fergie throws at him between now and Santa Slam! Yeesh. Whoever put the bounty of Mulligan had better pay Humperdink. Not sure I'd want Khan pointed in my direction! Slick and Fergie! Love It! Also thoroughly enjoyed that terribly uncomfortable interview! Looking forward to who Slick has in mind to be a bodyguard for Fergie. Also looking forward to seeing if Slick and the bodyguard might just be conning Fergie out of his dough! As I said after the house show, Ronnie Garvin is a great fit here. Excited to see him get more involved. Great main event! Love the tease of Buddy winning the big one, only for Olympia to cost him. Then to have Lawler get Buddy the same way, great call! This should set the Landel/Olympia war right back into high gear, and that is always good stuff! Great Show Dude! Twin States is rolling for sure!!

The Raven character doesn't work in trunks or a singlet though. You dress him like a traditional wrestler, and the character dies. Nothing in the Kevin Owens character requires him to dress like that, so it just ends up making it look like either A. He's a slob or B. They are trying to cover up him being fat.

(Taped on Monday November 30th, 1985 and airing Friday Night December 4th) From the beautiful Will Rogers Complex in Fort Worth. This is.... featuring the worlds greatest professional wrestlers from... We cut to ringside where Marc Lowrance is standing by with a microphone. Marc Lowrance: Hello Everyone! Welcome to the Will Rogers Coliseum and to Championship Sports. We are here on KTVT for another exciting edition of Texas All Star Wrestling! I am your host Marc Lowrance, and tonight we begin the second round of the tournament for the Texas Television Title as Brian Adias and Jack Victory go one on one in our opening contest! We will also see the two men who will compete at Seasons Beatings for the Texas Heavyweight Championship here tonight. As both champion Scott Casey, and challenger Dory Funk will be in singles competition. Two weeks before he competes in a Loser Leaves Town, Texas Death Match, "El Jefe" Jose Estrada will be in action. Then in our main event, big Jeff Gaylord and "Iron" Mike Sharpe will finally go one on one. So let's head down to the ring for tournament action! 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -"New Jersey Heartthrob" Jack Victory vs Brian Adias- Victory came to the ring wearing a shirt that read "Gold Dust Uno" and had a sour look on his face. Before the bell rang he attacked Adias from behind and just laid into him with stomps until the referee physically pushed him away. Victory shoved the referee away and charged at Adias who was about half way to his feet, and began stomping away at him again. Again the referee had to physically pull Victory away and this time shoved him most of the way across the ring. The referee was still scolding Victory as Adias got back to his feet, and again Victory shoved the ref out of the way and charged Adias. This time Adias side stepped Victory, shoved him into the ropes, and rolled him up! The ref counted One, Two, Three!! Winner: Brian Adias Marc Lowrance: Oh My! Jack Victory went to the well one too many times and got caught!! Brian Adias advances to the finals of the Texas Television Title Tournament, and Victory is beside himself!! As Adias is outside the ring celebrating with the crowd, Victory goes after the referee who quickly jumps out of the ring. Victory starts kicking and punching the turnbuckles, then kicks the ropes, before falling to the canvas and repeatedly pounding his fist on it. Marc Lowrance: This is quite a tantrum that Victory is having, meanwhile the fans in the Will Rogers Coliseum are loving it! Don't go anywhere Ladies and Gentleman, we'll be back with the Texas Heavyweight Champion Scott Casey and the lovely Sunshine! As the show is heading to commercial we see that John Tatum is now in the ring dressed in street clothes. He is kneeling next to a slightly calmer Victory and is speaking to him. The camera pans in just as we fade to commercial and we pick up Tatum saying "I have an idea." -Commercial Break- Marc Lowrance: Welcome back to Texas All Star Wrestling here on KTVT. During the break Jack Victory left the ring with John Tatum, and I don't know what was said, but Victory went from having a meltdown to having a smile on his face, so I can only guess those two have something up their sleeve! Let's head back down to the ring where the Texas Heavyweight Champion Scott Casey is set for action! 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -"Cowboy" Scott Casey w/Sunshine vs Snake Brown- Non Title Casey was pumped up tonight, working over the man who hails from outta town with lefts and rights, before catching him with a big dropkick! A trip into the ropes for Brown ended with a bone rattling powerslam. Then when he got up, a Bulldog spelled the end of his night. Winner: Scott Casey Marc Lowrance: I am standing by with your winner, the Texas Heavyweight Champion Scott Casey and the beautiful Sunshine! Scott Casey: Dory Funk, I know you think that you are some kind of royalty here in Texas, but you'd better think again. I got a lot of respect for your father, and even though he is crazy as a fox, I got a lot of respect for your brother. I used to have a lot of respect for you, but then you tried to piledrive Sunshine in the middle of that ring, and now I have nothing but anger. So when you and I meet at Seasons Beatings, if you think your last name is going to guarantee you something here in Texas All Star, you are absolutely right. It's going to guarantee my boot in your ass! Sunshine: You better not worry about piledriving me Dory Funk. You better worry about Scott Casey running you right out of the Lone Star State! Casey and Sunshine head out of the arena to loud cheers as the show heads to commercial break. -Commercial Break- As the show returns from commercial we are taken to footage labeled "Earlier Today" that shows Johnny Mantell dressed in blue jeans, a button up shirt, and a cowboy hat sitting in front of a Texas All Star backdrop, across from an unknown interviewer. Interviewer: Tomorrow night is the WrestleStorm match between Jerry "The King" Lawler and Terry Funk for the USWA World Heavyweight Title. You have been chosen by the Texas All Star Board of Directors and the USWA to challenge the winner of that match at Seasons Beatings on December the Eighteenth. Please tell us how you feel about this opportunity. Johnny Mantell: It's unbelievable to tell you the truth. This has been an incredibly up and down year for me professionally. Scott and I formed The Gunslingers out in the North East and we both thought things were going really well out there, the people liked us, we were winning matches, and then a change in management occurred, and the next thing we knew we were out the door. Then I ended up working for our partners over in Twin States and I messed up my neck pretty bad. But when Texas All Star got started, I knew I had to be here so I came in and wrestled hurt. The neck got worse, and I ended up missing a lot of time. While I was out, Scott won the Heavyweight Title, and while I absolutely couldn't be happier for him, I couldn't help but wonder where that left Johnny Mantell. So to get this chance, man... I can't tell you what it means. Interviewer: Given the choice, would you rather compete against Funk or Lawler? Johnny Mantell: That's a tough call. Jerry Lawler has been in this business a long time and they call him the King for a reason. That man has probably held more championships than I've had wrestling matches! So to get in there and compete with a man of his caliber would be fantastic. But on the other hand, as a kid growing up in Texas, you heard two names. Von Erich and Funk. So to get a chance to go in there and mix it up with Terry Funk, a former NWA Champion, man that's an opportunity that I'd also love to have. So who would I rather compete against. I'm not sure I can honestly tell you. Both guys would probably give me the toughest match I ever had, and win or lose I would come out of it a better wrestler. Interviewer: Do you have a prediction? Johnny Mantell: I predict that whoever wins that match better be ready for Johnny Mantell on December the Eighteenth, because I will darn sure be ready for them. 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -"El Jefe" Jose Estrada vs Shane Tylor- Despite the gigantic match up looming in his future, Estrada still came out with all of his usual swagger. He opened the match by slapping the taste out of Tylor's mouth, and then leveled him with a clothesline. After that it was just plain nastiness as he rubbed the young mans face into the mat, battered him with rights and lefts, and stomped him repeatedly. Finally he went to the top and came off with a Flying Clothesline that nearly took Tylor's head off and covered him. Winner: "El Jefe" Jose Estrada Marc Lowrance: Ladies and Gentleman, the winner "El Jefe" Jose Estrada. Jose Estrada: Cocoa Samoa, you think you got what you wanted by getting me in this Texas Death Match. Well let me tell you something cabron, El Jefe doesn't end up anywhere by chance. I put your amigo Lightfoot out of here for good, and now I'm going to send you right out after him. You think No Rules is good for you. No, No Amigo. No rules is good for El Jefe. Estrada shoves the microphone into the chest of Marc Lowrance and leaves to a chorus of booing. -Commercial Break- Marc Lowrance: Welcome back to Texas All Star Wrestling. Up next we have the man who will be challenging Scott Casey for the Texas Heavyweight Title, Dory Funk Junior in action. Let's head down to the ring. 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -Dory Funk Jr. vs Mike Reed- Dory was apparently feeling like a work out this evening as he took up eight of the scheduled ten minutes in the time limit, though he probably could have ended it in half that time. Lots of European uppercuts in the early part of the match, then he went to work on the legs. By the time Funk locked on the Cloverleaf submission hold, Reed could barely stand and he immediately submitted. An impressive showing from the former NWA Champion. Winner: Dory Funk Jr. Marc Lowrance: I am standing by with your winner, and the man who will challenge Scott Casey in two weeks for the Texas Heavyweight Title, Dory Funk Junior. Dory Funk Jr: Marc Lowrance, for nearly as long as there has been professional wrestling in the state of Texas, the name Funk has been associated with it. My Father was a sucessful wrestler and then ran one of the top promotions in the state. I was the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion. My Brother was the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion. Tomorrow night my brother is going to become the USWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion. So if Scott Casey thinks for even a moment that I will accept anything short of becoming the Texas Heavyweight Champion in two weeks time, then I have very bad news for that young man. Marc Lowrance: When you arrived in Texas All Star during the match between Scott Casey and The Spoiler, you didn't seem impressed with what you saw. Now you talk as though your victory is inevitable. Do you think you are potentially overlooking Scott Casey? Dory Funk Jr: I take every opponent I step into that ring with seriously. From that fellow I just beat tonight to the man holding my Texas Heavyweight Title. The goal is the same, out wrestle them, break them down, and defeat them. That's how I know I will walk away with that belt. Marc Lowrance: Ladies and Gentleman, Dory Funk Junior. We'll be right back after this break. -Commercial Break- As we return from commercial we see that Marc Lowrance has been joined by Frank Dusek. Marc Lowrance: Ladies and Gentleman, please welcome the Commissioner of Texas All Star Wrestling, Frank Dusek. Frank Dusek: Thank You Marc. I came out here tonight because earlier today when the wrestlers were arriving here at the building there was an incident in the parking lot. This incident has led to another match being signed for Seasons Beatings. None of our camera crews were around, but the security cameras here at the Will Rogers Coliseum did get some footage, so we are going to play that for you right now. We are taken to some black and white security footage dated earlier in the day. After a few seconds we see a pick-up truck pull into the parking lot, and after a few more seconds we see Black Bart and Bill Irwin get out of the truck. They both grab a few bags and begin walking toward the arena. The footage switches to a second feed and we see Bart and Irwin walking and talking, when three motorcycles come into the parking lot at a high rate of speed and bare down on The Wild Bunch. Bart and Irwin hear them coming and are able to get out of the way of the oncoming bikes. The three bikes come to a stop, and Bart and Irwin apparently know they are in for a fight as they rush the bikers. The three helmeted riders get off their bikes and start brawling with Bart and Irwin. For a few moments the fight is even, Bart even manages to rip the helmet off one of them revealing "Killer" Tim Brooks, but then the numbers advantage begins to take a toll. Things get even worse when another of the bikers removes his helmet revealing "Mean" Mike Miller. He takes the helmet and cracks "Wild" Bill Irwin in the head with it, sending him unconscious to the concrete. Then all three men begin to beat on Black Bart until he is down on the ground. The third biker removes his helmet to reveal Adrian Adonis who laughs for a moment, and then spits on the fallen Bart. Satisfied with their handiwork, Brooks, Miller, and Adonis grab their helmets, get back on their bikes and ride away from the arena, leaving Bart and Irwin laid out in the parking lot. Marc Lowrance: Oh my goodness! Frank Dusek: Yeah, it wasn't pretty. But Bart and Irwin were checked out at the local hospital, and apart from being a little beat up, and a lot mad, they are okay. But they laid down a challenge, and I am going to make it happen. At Seasons Beatings they want "Killer" Tim Brooks, "Mean" Mike Miller, and their new friend Adrian Adonis inside that ring in a no rules Bunkhouse Brawl. Marc Lowrance: Who will be there partner? Frank Dusek: I don't know, but they assured me they would have one. Marc Lowrance: Where did Adrian Adonis come from? Frank Dusek: I don't know that either, but he is the last thing this Bart, Brooks, Miller situation needed! Marc Lowrance: Well, Ladies and Gentleman, in what is sure to be a wild one, we are going to have a Bunkhous..... Before Marc Lowrance can finish, he has the microphone torn out of his hands and is shoved out of the way by The Spoiler who now stands face to face with Dusek. The Spoiler: Dusek, I want another fight with Tom Jones, and I want it now. Frank Dusek: Sorry big man, the main event is schedule out here next and I.... The Spoiler: I don't care about your main event. I don't care about your excuses. You get me Jones in that ring so I can end his career. Tom Jones comes from the back, followed by several members of the security team. He has also gotten a second microphone from somewhere. Tom Jones: End my career? Shoot! You couldn't even beat me last week, and I'm the one that snatched that mask off your ugly face! The Spoiler: Just give me another chance boy, and I'll make sure you never wrestle again! Tom Jones: Boy? You best watch who you're calling boy! If we step in that ring again, I'm going take that mask again and show the whole world what an ugly S.O.B. you are!! Dusek snatches the microphone from Spoiler and speaks. Frank Dusek: HOLD IT! HOLD IT!! You two want each other so bad! You want to end his career? You want to take his mask? Then let's do it! Two weeks from now. Seasons Beatings. No Count Out, No Disqualification, No Akbar!! Spoilers Mask vs Tom Jones Career! NOW GET THEM OUT OF HERE!!! -Commercial Break- Marc Lowrance: Ladies and Gentleman, welcome back to Texas All Star Wrestling on KTVT. To recap what just happened, first we saw footage of Killer Brooks and Mike Miller, along with Adrian Adonis assaulting Black Bart and "Wild" Bill Irwin in the parking lot earlier today. A six man Bunkhouse Brawl has been signed for Seasons Beating, and we have no idea who Bart and Irwin will be bringing as a partner. Then Tom Jones and The Spoiler both showed up and nearly came to blows, but in the process things were said, and now on December the Eighteenth, they will meet in a match that will see Tom Jones put his career on the line against the mask of The Spoiler. I have to tell you Ladies and Gentleman, this Seasons Beatings show over at the Tarrant County Convention Center just keeps getting bigger and better. Right now, it is time to head down to the ring for our main event. 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -"Iron" Mike Sharpe vs Jeff Gaylord- This began with a lot of stalling from Mike Sharpe, and that led to Gaylord getting more and more frustrated. Sharpe took advantage when the youngster finally got hot and went after him, thumbing him in the eye as the referee pushed him away. Sharpe then began an assault on the lower back of Gaylord that lasted for quite some time and saw the veteran "Iron" Mike use a mixture of submissions, strikes, and just plain dirty tactics to keep the muscular Gaylord down. Sharpe finally lost control when he locked Gaylord in a bear hug, but the Missouri Tiger was able to muster up the strength to power out of it and he began to rock Sharpe with left and rights before dropping him with a clothesline. Gaylord then went to work on Sharpe with a power attack that was definitely hampered by the damage to his back, but still enough to have Sharpe begging for mercy. The end came when Gaylord whipped Sharpe hard into the corner. He followed him in with a clothesline, then mounted the buckles and began punching away at the head of Sharpe as the fans counted along. When Gaylord got down off the buckles, the referee was giving him hell for not adhering to the count, and this allowed Sharpe to sweep the legs of Gaylord out from under him. Sharpe cradled him, and got both of his feet up on the second rope, as the referee counted One, Two, Three! Winner: "Iron" Mike Sharpe Sharpe was out of the ring in a flash and jogging to the dressing room with his arms in the air, as Gaylord was giving the referee the "what the hell was that" face. Marc Lowrance: A complete miscarriage of justice there Ladies and Gentleman. Mike Sharpe's feet were clearly on the ropes, and Jeff Gaylord is not happy. Ladies and Gentleman, that is all for Texas All Star Wrestling this week. We thank you so much for joining us, be sure to tune in next time, right here on KTVT. Until then, I'm Marc Lowrance, Good Night Everyone. Friday December 18th, 1985 Tarrant County Convention Center Forth Worth, Texas Winner of Jerry Lawler/Terry Funk at WrestleStorm vs Johnny Mantell w/Sunshine - USWA World Heavyweight Title "Cowboy" Scott Casey w/Sunshine vs Dory Funk Jr. - Texas Heavyweight Title The Tribal Nation (Mark/Chris Youngblood) vs The Glamour Boys (Steve Doll/Steve Simpson) - Texas Tag Team Titles Brian Adias vs Winner of The Texas Ranger/Joel Deaton - Texas Television Title Cocoa Samoa vs "El Jefe" Jose Estrada - Loser Leaves Town, Texas Death Match "Killer" Tim Brooks/"Mean" Mike Miller/Adrian Adonis vs Black Bart/"Wild" Bill Irwin/Mystery Partner - 6 Man Bunkhouse Brawl "Mr. Ebony" Tom Jones vs The Spoiler - No Count Out, No DQ, Managers Barred from Ringside. Tom Jones Career vs The Spoilers Mask plus more to be announced

It's always a wild night in Tupelo! Ronnie Garvin shows up in Twin States, and that feels right! He'll make a fine top babyface here! Fuller and Golden leaving? That doesn't feel right!! The Platinum Club is such a wonderful group of dastardly pricks! Things just aren't going Kamala's way these days. With the new talent coming in, and some new characters being built, I really like where Twin States is going!

It's an interesting thought. Maybe Anthem wants out, and the Khans can get it on the cheap? Get the video library, the name Impact for a potential second show, some decent talent, and you keep it out of Vince's hands.

If he came in as the last person for War Games, threw some punches and slapped on a Scorpion Deathlock, I'm sure he'd be fine. Hell, they have Arn in there messing around, and his injury was worse than Stings.

If this means a chance for Su Yung, Deonna Purrazzo, and Tenille Dashwood as part of the AEW Women's division, then color me interested!

Texas All Star releases Kim Duk and Paul Roma to regular Free Agency and Akio Sato, Spike, and Basher to 1986 Rookie Free Agents

Budrow is back!! and we get a Sy Sperling and the Hairclub for Men reference right off the bat. That's about as 80's as we can get in this motherfucker. Great opening segment! Set up a main event for tonight, next week, and potentially set up a 2nd masked man!! I like the pairing of Khan and Humperdink. Be interesting to see if Dink gets anybody else in his stable. Also be interesting to see if whoever put the bounty out shows up. Nightmares pick up another win, and man they are on a roll! Karachi Vice better be on the look out! Embry using "You're the Best Around" is awesome! Bullet Bob has dispatched The Ugandan Giant and now he wants his belt back. Fergie better buy himself some back up!! Well, I don't like The Violent Gentleman showing dissension. They are one of my favorite teams in the game. Interesting to see where this goes. Fergie apparently sees things my way. Puts his bodyguard in front of Armstrong before giving him a title shot. I still don't figure things will be that easy!! Nice win for Olympia, and then he gets tossed out of the building! That won't sit well! Just make him want a shot at Buddy even more. Landel picks up the win over Brisco after Embry and Johnny V get involved! Add in The Fabulous Blondes, and The Platinum Club is complete!! What a Stable!! Business is definitely picking up here in Twin States. Liking the direction things are heading.

The Rich Clan and Oliver/Borne is building to a fever pitch. These two teams are going to kill each other at WrestleStorm! Lawler tries to give a Rah Rah USWA promo, but Uncle Terry ain't having that shit! Two brawls, zero matches! Lance is having a bad night!! DJ seems pretty confident heading into the big show. 20k is a lot of money, but Champagne isn't going to let it go easy! Speaking of confident, loving the Bruise Brothers coming off the big win in the tag tournament showing no fear of Skaaland and the boys. Telling them to bring the towel was awesome. An interesting end? to the CEO's angle as they present a new belt to Champagne Morrow and then leave the company? Oh well, Morrow with a shiny fake championship belt should be a lot of fun! Timothy Flowers and Sunny War Cloud's feud looks like it might be over, but then Flowers decides he isn't quite done yet. Flowers definitely just took it up another level. Dream Machine is talking a big game, but after that tar and feather job on Dicky Slater, I certainly wouldn't want to be in his mask! Ripper Morgan destroys the Samoans!! I love Kai as the ruthless leader of men. I am very excited for the Sweet Brown Sugar/Tony St. Clair match at WrestleStorm. On a show full of grudge matches and feud enders, this may steal the show from a straight up wrestling standpoint. Lawler is pissed off to close the night, and that match with Funk may well decide the immediate future of all the USWA! WrestleStorm is so insanely stacked from top to bottom. I can't wait to see what happens!!

Texas All Star would like to pick up Woman

I have no issues with those women being added. I also noticed Kat Leroux is missing from your roster. Texas All Star sends Koko Ware to MACW for Adrian Adonis Texas All Star also receives Scott Irwin from MACW in exchange for my 2nd Round Pick in the recent Rookie Draft

(Taped on Monday November 23rd, 1985 and airing Friday Night November 27th) From the beautiful Will Rogers Complex in Fort Worth. This is.... featuring the worlds greatest professional wrestlers from... We cut to ringside where Marc Lowrance is standing by with a microphone. Marc Lowrance: Hello Everyone and Happy Thanksgiving! Welcome to the Will Rogers Coliseum and to Championship Sports. We are here on KTVT for another exciting edition of Texas All Star Wrestling! I am your host Marc Lowrance, and just one night removed from good food, family time, and Cowboys football, we have quite a night of action lined up for you! In our main event "General" Skandor Akbar will lead The Spoiler into action against "Mr. Ebony" Tom Jones! The number one contenders to the Texas Tag Team Titles, The Glamour boys will be in action, and after the shocking events of last week, you know they will have something to say. "Hollywood" John Tatum will be back in action this week, and speaking of people with something to say, Black Bart and "Wild" Bill Irwin will be in action! But first, we have the final first round match of the Texas Television Title Tournament which will see Lance Von Erich take on a newcomer here to Texas All Star Wrestling, "The Outlaw" Joel Deaton! 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -"Outlaw" Joel Deaton vs Lance Von Erich- Deaton came to the ring in black trunks, black vest, and black cowboy hat carrying a bull rope with a cowbell attached to it. So needless to say while he wasn't going to be getting any cheers against Von Erich anyway, the fans certainly didn't like the looks of him either! Lance was quick out of the gate dazzling Deaton with his speed and aerial attacks. Von Erich caught him with a big dropkick that got a long two count, and went for his big reverse crossbody off the ropes early, but Deaton ducked it and Lance crashed hard to the mat. After that "The Outlaw" was vicious, working over the head and neck of Von Erich hard forearms, twisting chinlocks, and just plain clubs to the side of the head. Deaton maintained control for a while, his attack always focused on the head and neck, but finally when Deaton locked in a sleeper, Lance started firing elbows into his midsection and broke free. Von Erich fired several punches at The Outlaw, and then attempted to whip him into the ropes, but Deaton reversed it and blasted Lance with a huge lariat that crumbled him to the mat. Von Erich was very slow to his feet, and Deaton was waiting, and plowed him with a huge Bulldog, before covering for the three count and the fall. Winner: "Outlaw" Joel Deaton Marc Lowrance: "Outlaw" Joel Deaton picks up a huge win in his Texas All Star debut over Lance Von Erich and advances in the Texas Television Title Tournament where he will meet The Texas Ranger in the second round. Lance seems to be favoring his neck and is being helped from the ring by medical personnel, so let's go ahead and take our first break. -Commercial Break- Marc Lowrance: Welcome back to Texas All Star Wrestling, right here on KTVT. Before the break we saw Lance Von Erich being attended too by medical personnel. I am told that he is favoring his neck after that last contest, but there doesn't appear to be any significant injury. Up next we have a man who made his debut here two weeks ago, "Hollywood" John Tatum, along with his valet Dark Journey. It was quite an entrance, and I am told that tonight Mr. Tatum has agreed to an interview once he has finished competing. So let's head to the ring. 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -"Hollywood" John Tatum w/Dark Journey vs Trent McAllister- Once the elaborate entrance was over, and the robe came off, and Dark Journey fluffed his hair and kissed his cheek, and he strutted around the ring, Tatum was ready for action! "Hollywood" John showed off against McAllister, whipping the much smaller man into the ropes, dropping him with a shoulderblock, then strutting a little more. Grabbing a headlock, and making kissy faces at Dark Journey. Hitting McAllister with a big hip toss, and then mocking him as he held his back in pain. Finally after several minutes of toying with the youngster, Tatum blaster him in the face with the California Kick, and casually laid on him for on the one, two, three. Winner: "Hollywood" John Tatum Marc Lowrance: I am here with your winner "Hollywood" John Tatum and the lovely Dark Journey. Dark Journey: Well Thank You Marc. Of all the horrible people here in Texas, you have certainly been the most polite. Marc Lowrance: I... John Tatum: Now Marc Lowrance, I'm gonna go ahead and stop you right there cause nobody wants to hear from you. These people came here to the Roy Rogers Coliseum to see "Hollywood" John Tatum. Marc Lowrance: That's actually the Will Rogers Coliseum. John Tatum: Didn't you hear me man? Nobody wants to hear you! Nobody cares what this stupid building in this stupid town is called! It's like when you try and correct my friend Jack Victory when he gets your name wrong. It's not that he doesn't know your name Marc, it's that he doesn't care. Speaking of Jack Victory, it's ridiculous what the big wigs here at Texas All Star did to our friends the Fabulous Blondes. I don't blame Jack one bit for his boycott. I want him to know that I support him, and next week when he returns to take on Brian Adias in the Television Title Tournament, both myself and Dark Journey will be pulling for him one thousand percent. That's it, interview over. You disgust me Lowrance. Tatum shakes his head and pushes past Marc Lowrance. Marc looks to Dark Journey with a bit of a confused look on his face, but she just rolls her eyes and walks away. Marc Lowrance: Well, there you have it. Tatum and Dark Journey are pulling for Jack Victory in the Texas Television Title Tournament. Birds of a feather I guess. We'll be right back. -Commercial Break- Marc Lowrance: That was the final minutes of the shocking ending to our program last week where we saw the debuting Tribal Nation of Mark and Chris Youngblood upset The Highwaymen to become the New Texas Tag Team Champions. Right now the team who was set to challenge The Highwaymen for those belts at our upcoming Seasons Beatings event, The Glamour Boys are in action. Let's head to the ring. 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -The Glamour Boys (Steve Doll/Steve Simpson) vs The Bounty Hunter/Jack Spade- Doll and Simpson were having a good time in the Will Rogers Coliseum tonight taking it to Spade and his masked partner as soon as the bell rang with a pair of dropkicks. Spade got singled out, and ate several armdrags from Doll, then a double hiptoss from both Glamour boys, before Simpson took over on him. On the next tag out, Spade got nailed with a double back body drop and a double dropkick which knocked him back into his own corner, allowing The Bounty Hunter to tag himself in. He also got a double dropkick! Doll then gave him a big bodyslam and a legdrop, before tagging Simpson back in, and then both scaled the ropes for the newly named Glam, Slam, Thank You Ma'am (missile dropkick/flying splash combo) that put the masked man down for the count. Winners: The Glamour Boys of Steve Doll and Steve Simpson Marc Lowrance: Ladies and Gentleman, I am here with your winners, The Glamour Boys! Gentleman, last week your long time rivals The Highwaymen lost their Texas Tag Team Titles to Mark and Chris Youngblood, who you will now be facing at Seasons Beatings. Your thoughts? Doll and Simpson look at one another and then bust out laughing. Steve Simpson: You know Marc, first we'd like to congratulate the Youngbloods. They seem like two nice guys, and we are legitimately happy for them, and we look forward to competing against them. As for The Highwaymen, what a couple of buffoons. This is exactly what happens when you write checks your butt can't cash. It's just too bad that we weren't the ones to do it. Steve Doll: Hickerson, Duncum. You two loud mouths got what was coming to you, and it couldn't have happened to two more deserving guys. I'm sure that whoever wins that match between us and the Youngbloods will be happy to give you guys a shot at those belts. Once you've worked your way back into title contention! Doll and Simpson both have a bit of a chuckle at that one, and then they head out slapping hands and hugging ladies. Marc Lowrance: Folks, we'll be right back with more Texas All Star Wrestling. Don't go anywhere! -Commercial Break- As we return from break Marc Lowrance has been joined by Frank Dusek. Marc Lowrance: Welcome back to Texas All Star Wrestling on KTVT. Right now I am joined by the Commissioner of Texas All Star, Frank Dusek. Frank Dusek: Thank You Marc. After the events of last week, I have three announcements to make here tonight. First is that next week right here in on Texas All Star, "Iron" Mike Sharpe and Jeff Gaylord are going to go one on one in this ring. Second, is that in two weeks the Board of Directors has seen fit to grant The Highwaymen a rematch with The Tribal Nation for the Texas Tag Team Titles. Whichever team wins that match will then go on to defend against The Glamour Boys the following week at Seasons Beatings. Finally, after everything that has happened between them, we have come to a decision on the futures of Cocoa Samoa and "El Jefe" Jose Estrada. A match has been signed for Seasons Beatings. The first thing to note is that if either man so much as lays a finger on the other before the bell rings for that match, both men will be terminated from Texas All Star Wrestling. We won't have this blood feud causing injury to our officials, our security, our medical personnel, or god forbid one of our fans. Now as I said, Cocoa and El Jefe will meet at Seasons Beatings, and since Texas All Star obviously isn't big enough for the both of them, it is going to be a Loser Leaves Town match. But as violent as these two have gotten, those stakes didn't quite seem high enough, so against our better judgement, it will also be.... a Texas Death Match. Marc Lowrance: Oh My. Frank Dusek: Yeah. Neither of those men will ever be the same, but one of them will be gone from Texas All Star for good. Marc Lowrance: Seasons Beatings will certainly live up to it's name. We'll be right back. -Commercial Break- 1 Fall, 10 Minute Time Limit -The Wild Bunch (Black Bart/"Wild" Bill Irwin) vs Snake Brown/Dave Kent- Brown and Kent never stood a chance, as The Wild Bunch hit the ring like a hurricane and started pounding away on both men. Irwin caught Snake Brown in the chest with his Pump Kick and Brown sailed through the ropes and wasn't seen again. Meanwhile Bart paraded Kent around the ring in position for a bodyslam, then drilled him into the mat. Bart then climbed up and hit him with the Texas Trash Compactor for quick victory. Winners: The Wild Bunch of Black Bart and "Wild" Bill Irwin Marc Lowrance doesn't even bother trying to talk, he just simply hands the microphone to Black Bart. Bart looks at him sideways, then shrugs and hands the microphone to Irwin. Bill Irwin: You know, it's been quite a while since I've been down here to Texas, and I know the last time I was in these parts I wasn't a well liked man. That's my fault for the things I done, and for choosing to run with scum like Akbar. This man here now, this is a different "Wild" Bill Irwin. You see I was back East kicking butt and taking names, when I got a phone call from my friend Bart here, and he said Bill, I need someone I can trust to help me take care of a couple of no good, backstabbing, pieces of trash named Tim Brooks and Mike Miller. Now, I know I done a lot of bad things to a lot of people during my time in the wrestling business, but even I ain't never sunk so low as to stab the people I call my friends in the back. Hell, if I consider you my friend, a true friend, I'd do anything, fight anybody for you. So Mike Miller, Tim Brooks... you two might think you pulled something off back in that Devil Cage, but all you done was bought yourself a world of hurt. The Wild Bunch is here now, and that's bad news for you. Irwin hands the microphone back to Bart who has a huge grin on his face. Black Bart: MIKE MILLER! KILLER BROOKS! YOU DONE IT NOW BOYS! IF YOU THOUGHT I WAS DADGUM MAD BEFORE! SHOOT, YOU TWO EGG SUCKING PIECES OF GUTTER TRASH AIN'T SEEN NUTHIN' YET!! WE'RE COMING FOR WAR!! Bart spikes the microphone onto the arena floor where it emits a loud burst of static causing Marc Lowrance to jump as The Wild Bunch storms out of the arena to massive cheers. -Commercial Break- As we return from break Marc Lowrance is standing looking at his broken microphone. He shrugs his shoulders and points to the ring. 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -"Mr. Ebony" Tom Jones vs The Spoiler w/Skandor Akbar- This one started off as something of a stalemate as neither man could gain the advantage out of the collar and elbow. Then The Spoiler threw the first right hand. Jones wasn't having that, so he fired back. Then both stood in the center of the ring throwing punches until they were both about to fall over. We briefly had some semblance of a wrestling match when Jones grabbed a headlock, Spoiler shot him in the ropes, and Jones put him down with a shoulderblock. Spoiler didn't like that, so he grabbed a headlock, Jones shot him in the ropes, and when he tried a shoulderblock, Jones didn't move. So Spoiler raked his eyes, and tossed him out to the floor. That is where all hell broke loose as both men started brawling and eventually both grabbed steel chairs, Spoiler from the timekeeper, and Jones from a fan! When they swung at each other, the chairs collided with a loud clack, and the referee knew he had lost control. This Match Has Been Ruled a Double Disqualification! They both swung the chairs again, and again the chairs collided with a loud metallic bang. Only this time, the fingers of Jones must have been hit as he dropped his chair. Spoiler saw his opening and swung a third time, smashing Jones on top of the head with the steel chair. Jones collapsed to the floor in a heap, and Spoiler tossed the chair aside as Akbar arrived to usher him away. Marc Lowrance: The referee has thrown this one out, but The Spoiler has just crushed "Mr. Ebony" with a massive shot to the skull with that steel chair. Thankfully Akbar is leading The Spoiler away from the ring, but we are going to need some help out here for Tom Jones. Ladies and Gentleman, it has been another wild night here on Texas All Star Wrest.... WAIT A MOMENT!!! Tom Jones rises up from the floor, his face a crimson mask, and runs for The Spoiler who hasn't quite made it to the dressing room. Jones tackles The Spoiler from behind and starts raining down lefts and rights into the face of the masked man, who is scrambling to get behind the curtain that leads to the dressing room and out of harms way. Akbar is pulling at Jones, but "Mr. Ebony" stands up and blasts Akbar with a huge right hand which sends him flying past the curtain and out of sight. The Spoiler manages to crawl on all fours into the dressing room, but Jones follows him in and then emerges a few seconds later... Marc Lowrance: Is that? Oh My! Oh my, things have just gone to another level between these two. Ladies and Gentleman, that is all for Texas All Star Wrestling this week. We thank you so much for joining us, be sure to tune in next time, right here on KTVT. Until then, I'm Marc Lowrance, Good Night Everyone. The show closes on a shot of "Mr. Ebony" Tom Jones, blood dripping down his face onto his chest, standing with his fist raised into the air, the mask of The Spoiler clutched in it for the world to see. Friday December 18th, 1985 Winner of Jerry Lawler/Terry Funk at WrestleStorm vs Johnny Mantell w/Sunshine - USWA World Heavyweight Title "Cowboy" Scott Casey w/Sunshine vs Dory Funk Jr. - Texas Heavyweight Title The Tribal Nation (Mark/Chris Youngblood) vs The Glamour Boys (Steve Doll/Steve Simpson) - Texas Tag Team Titles Winner of Brian Adias/Jack Victory vs Winner of The Texas Ranger/Joel Deaton - Texas Television Title Cocoa Samoa vs "El Jefe" Jose Estrada - Loser Leaves Town, Texas Death Match plus more to be announced
