Welcome Aboard!! First off, dig the format. Big win for The Moondogs against Patterson and Johnson, glad to see Spot getting better usage than I gave him! Great Jesse interview! I could hear it in his voice! Roop picks up a nice one against Robinson. Get the feeling we'll be seeing a Roop push, and that is good with me!! Nice wins for Two Eagles and the Superstar! Glad to see Rocky Johnson heading back to singles competition, hoping to see a good run from The Soul Man! If that was a veiled shot at Pat's preferences, well done, those seem to be prevalent in early 80's WWF!! Holy Shit! Magnum takes the belt off Backlund!! What a way to kick off the new era of the WWF! Is Magnumania about to Run Wild?? Dibiase makes short work of The Body, and brings an end to an awesome first show! Looking forward to seeing more!!

World Class trades Len Denton and Baron Von Raschke to Continental for The Great Kabuki and Kendo Nagasaki

Kendall gets the nice intro from his Daddy, but that may cost him an ass beating sooner than later. Johnny Rich getting over nicely, and Rocky Mountain desperately needs some babyfaces, so that is good! Chris Adams picks up another nice win, and Ron Bass looks to keep it rolling against Von Erich, but Rufus Jones makes the surprise appearance and saves the day!! Things starting to look a little brighter here!! Oh Man! Now Doc and The Bull have arrived!! Things are turning sour for Ladd real fast! Mulligan's Men versus Ladd's Army is gonna be a whole lot of fun!! Orndorff and Tito pick up some wins to open Stampede Moffit looks to make a big impact by going after Santana, but firing up Tito is a bad idea! Bassarab vs Armstrong should be a good one Slaughter's Marauders vs Neidhart, Tito, and The Bulldogs would be a heck of an 8 man! Yeesh.....The Movement against Hansen and Bad News...... poor Tiger and Shaska!! HOLY SHIT!! What did Orndorff just do!! Wow! Flair gets the shot, Bret gets screwed, Heenan gets laid out, Orndorff is the lone wolf.... What an Ending!!!

-Broadcasting live to our local affiliates in Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, and Missouri, as well as in Syndication across these great United States, the American Wrestling Association proudly presents World Class Wrestling, coming to you this week from the North Side Coliseum in Fort Worth!- Jim Ross: Hello Ladies and Gentleman, and welcome to AWA World Class Wrestling! I'm Jim Ross and joining me as always is "Cowboy" Bill Watts. Tonight we have two huge matches that will have major implications for World Class Wrestling. We'll also hear from David Schultz who has been at the center of much controversy and we have some breaking news on not one, but two out of the ring altercations! Tell them about it Bill. Bill Watts: That's absolutely right Jim. First we will see Kevin Von Erich and Baron Von Raschke battle inside the steel cage in a match where the only way to win is to defeat your opponent with The Iron Claw. One man will submit or be rendered unable to continue here tonight. Then in the main event Nick Bockwinkel will defend the World Class Heavyweight Championship against Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat inside the same steel cage. If Steamboat fails to defeat Bockwinkel, he will be forced to leave World Class for one year. But I don't think Bockwinkel was anticipating the cage being there to keep his accomplices out when he laid down the challenge. Jim Ross: High stakes to be certain Cowboy, but at Labor Day Star Wars, Steamboat was seemingly moments away from winning the title when the time limit expired. Bill Watts: It definitely looked that way to everyone but the champion himself! Jim Ross: Before we head to the ring, we are going to look at some video footage of two incidents that took place last week. The footage is graphic in nature folks, so be warned if you have young children in the room, or are feint of heart. Let's roll that footage... We are taken to footage that is labeled 9-3-84 Springfield, Missouri. We see Kendall Windham dressed in street clothes walking across the parking lot of a building carrying a duffel bag. Just as he reaches what appears to be his car, he is hit from behind and crashes into the door of the car. Jimmy Garvin, Gary Young, and John Tatum all swarm into the picture and begin punching and kicking Windham, and repeatedly slamming his head off the roof and hood of the car. Once Kendall is an absolute bloody mess, they start to walk away, but Gary Young goes back and actually smashes Kendall's head into the drivers side window!! Jim Ross: A disturbing attack that took place after a World Class show in Springfield, Missouri the night after Labor Day Star Wars. Young Kendall Windham was taken the hospital and received multiple stitches and suffered a severe concussion. Whether we will see him in a World Class ring again is unknown. Bill Watts: Needless to say his older brother Barry Windham was not pleased with what transpired, so now we take you to the very next night in Joplin, Missouri. This time the footage is labeled 9-4-94 Joplin, Missouri. We see Gary Young who looks dressed for an evening on the town putting his suitcase in the trunk of his car. From seemingly out of nowhere, Barry Windham nailed him from behind knocking him about half way into the trunk. Barry then starts raining down punches into the face of Young and we can hear him grunting out "you wanna attack my family" as he assaults him. Barry finally backs off a bit, and Young starts to try and pull himself up, and that is when Barry slams the trunk lid down on top of Young. Young collapses to the pavement and Windham reaches into the trunk, producing a tire iron. Barry reaches down and grabs the arm of Young, and brings the tire iron crashing down on his hand and wrist. Young screams out in pain and curls into the fetal position clutching his arm to his chest. The footage ends there. Jim Ross: We understand that "Gorgeous" Gary suffered an injury to his arm, and he has not shown up to any of his scheduled matches since that night, and can only assume he has left World Class Wrestling. Bill Watts: Barry Windham will be here on the show next week and we hope to get some comments from him on this whole matter. Jim Ross: Folk's we are going to take a quick break, and we will be right back with the first of our two main events! -Commercial Break- 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -Baron Von Raschke vs Kevin Von Erich- -Steel Cage- -Iron Claw Submission Match- Von Raschke stalled getting into the cage, and had Kevin worked into a frenzy by the time he finally did. When the cage door closed, Von Erich launched himself across the ring and fists were flying. Surprisingly it was Baron who took the advantage after sinking his fingers into the eyes of Kevin, and then he went to work. He smashed Kevin repeatedly into the cage, then scraped his face back and forth across the mesh until the blood began to flow. Von Raschke stomped him on the mat relentlessly, and when he held up his hand to signal the Claw, the Fort Worth crowd booed him out of the building. Von Raschke reached down and grabbed a handful of Kevin's hair to pull him to his feet, but Kevin countered by stiff arming the Baron in the groin much to the delight of the fans! Von Raschke was clutching himself as Kevin got to his feet and grabbed him by the back of the head and ran him face first into the cage. Now it was Kevin's turn to bring the pain as he rubbed the face of Von Raschke against the cage and smashed him into it repeatedly until blood was streaming down the face of the Baron. Kevin shoved Von Raschke into the corner and climbed onto the second turnbuckle where he blasted him with punches as the crowd counted along. Von Raschke staggered out of the corner and collapsed to the canvas. Now it was Kevin's turn as he held his hand up signalling for the Iron Claw as the crowd roared. Kevin dropped down and straddled Von Raschke, sinking the Iron Claw in deep as he did so. Von Erich grabbed his wrist with his other hand for extra leverage, and Von Raschke thrashed and struggled, but there was no escape. First he stopped trying to pull Kevin's arms away, then he stopped moving completely. At that point Referee David Manning called for the bell. Winner: Kevin Von Erich Bill Watts: MY GOD, WHAT A FIGHT! Jim Ross: Bloodied and beaten, Kevin Von Erich has left Baron Von Raschke unconscious in the middle of the ring! I guess we know for sure who the true master of the Iron Claw is now Cowboy! Bill Watts: Baron Von Raschke is a tough man Jim Ross, but when he backed Kevin Von Erich in a corner, I'm not sure he ever stood a chance. Jim Ross: Folks, we are gonna take a break while both of these men are helped from the ring. When we return, we are going to hear from David Schultz! -Commercial Break- We return to find Marc Lowrance standing at ringside with one "Dr. D" David Schultz. Marc Lowrance: Ladies and Gentleman, please welcome back to World Class Wrestling, David Schultz. David Schultz: That's "Dr. D" David Schultz to you Marc Lowrance! But you know what, it's actually good to be back here in World Class Wrestling 'cause I have some unfinished business to take care of, ya understand that! Back on the Fourth of July, I was all set to whip The Junkyard Dog and win the World Class Title, when that gutless yellow turd, that seven foot mongoloid, Big John Studd jumped me from behind and wrapped a steel chair around my skull. When ya seven foot tall and weight over three hundred pounds, I'd expect you to step up and fight like a man, but Studd came up from behind me like a coward and I never saw it coming. I was still ready to go out there and beat the Dog half to death and bring home that title baby, but the damn doctors told the Doctor that I wasn't in no shape to wrestle. They told me that they'd fine me twenty five thousand dollars if I stepped foot out of that locker room. Marc Lowrance: Where have you been since that time? David Schultz: Don't you interrupt me Marc Lowrance, or I'll slap you so hard you'll think your my wife! I was getting to that! Now! John Studd did his job and took me out of that match as part of some master plan that Nicky Bockwinkel hatched so he could win the Heavyweight Title. Good for you Nick. That's real good. All you've done is save Junkyard Dog the whippin' that I was fixin' to give him, and now I'm gonna give it to you. Only it's gonna be a lot worse for you, cause at least the Dog never had to send his bosom buddies to take Dr. D out! Anyway! To answer your stupid question Marc Lowrance, after the Fourth of July, I took a little trip down to Alabama. Made a few friends, had a little fun, made twenty five thousand dollars so that if this crap ever happens again I can tell those doctors where to plant their lips, and most of all, I planned on how I was gonna come back here and get some damn revenge! Marc Lowrance: That was at the Battle of New Orleans when you cost Big John Studd the Central States/Television Title Unification Match? David Schultz: That was the damn start! If you, or Studd, or these people, or any damn buddy thinks that's all there is too it, you're mistaken! I'm going to continue smashing chairs into the head of John Studd until he's about as tall as Sky Low Low! You hear me! Then we can't forget that ole Tricky Nicky Bockwinkel was behind all this, so maybe I'll wrap a chair around his pretty blonde head and take that belt that I was all set to take in the damn first place! Marc Lowrance: What about Bruiser Brody? When you attacked Studd for the second time on Labor Day, you caused Brody to get disqualified, and seem to have made an enemy of him as well. David Schultz: I don't care about Bruiser Brody, Marc Lowrance. That big goof was in the wrong place at the wrong time, ya understand? If he wants to stomp out to the ring in his little boots with pieces of his old lady's fur coat glued to them, and his little chain and get in the Doctor's face, I'll be glad to smack him around too. Doctor D isn't in World Class Wrestling to make friends. I'm here for two reasons, to beat people up, and to win the Heavyweight Title. Brody, Studd, Bockwinkel, Jim Ross, you Lowrance, I don't care, I'll fight any damn body. Schultz walks away as Lowrance gives an "Oh My" look and the show heads to a commercial break. -Commercial Break- Jim Ross: Ladies and Gentleman, we are back and it is time for the World Class Heavyweight Championship to be defended inside the Steel Cage. Bill Watts: Ricky Steamboat has agreed to leave World Class for one year if he doesn't defeat Nick Bockwinkel here tonight. I believe Bockwinkel was attempting to set him up, but this cage has thrown a monkey wrench in his plans, and now he'll be forced to rely on only himself. Jim Ross: Anything goes inside that cage, but he won't have John Studd and he won't have Baron Von Raschke to help him. The Champ is going to have to do this one on his own. 1 Fall, 60 Minute Time Limit -Nick Bockwinkel vs Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat - AWA World Class Heavyweight Title- -Cage Match- A very different tempo than the first cage match, as Steamboat and Bockwinkel felt one another out in the opening minutes and tentatively locked up several times. A very technical back and forth wrestling match with both men showing control and superior ability that frequently ended in stalemates was the story of the opening fifteen minutes of this match. Bockwinkel seemed frustrated each time that Steamboat was able to counter him, while Steamboat just nodded his head and looked ready to try his next attack. The tempo of the match changed when Steamboat bridged out of a Bockwinkel pin attempt, and it left Bockwinkel behind The Dragon. Nick had apparently had enough and grabbed a handful of Steamboat's hair and attempted to drive him face first into the cage! Steamboat caught hold of the mesh with both hands and stopped the momentum. Bockwinkel continued to try and drive the face of The Dragon into the cage, but Steamboat proved more powerful and didn't allow it to happen. Steamboat drove an elbow backwards into the stomach of the Champion, and then grabbed him by the head and smashed him into the cage much to the delight of the crowd! Bockwinkel came off the mat with blood streaming down his face, and The Dragon laid into him with a series of chops to the chest, and then one to the head for good measure. Steamboat whipped Bockwinkel into the ropes and caught him with a huge double chop to the chest that sent Bockwinkel down. Steamboat covered Bockwinkel, but Referee Ron West only counted Two. Steamboat grabbed Bockwinkel by the hair to pull him up, and at the same time, Bockwinkel grabbed Ron West by the pant leg to try and stop Steamboat. Steamboat managed to get Bockwinkel to his feet, and Bockwinkel had West off balance, and when Steamboat nailed Bockwinkel with a punch, Bockwinkel nailed Ron West with a back elbow that seemed very convenient.... Bockwinkel began crawling to the corner to try and get away from Steamboat, slapping the mat quite loudly as he went, but Ricky followed him in and pulled him to his feet. Steamboat mounted the turnbuckle and began to punch away at Bockwinkel. Jim Ross: Bill, do you see.. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! A couple of feet behind where Ricky Steamboat was punching away at Bockwinkel in the corner, a hole appeared in the canvas. Small at first, just enough for some fingers to appear, then a hand, then a second hand. Then the whole got much bigger as two arms widened it, then a head appeared.... Jim Ross: THAT'S THE GREAT KABUKI!!! From out of the hole came The Great Kabuki. He crouched down and waited for Ricky Steamboat to finish punching away at Nick Bockwinkel. When Steamboat climbed down and turned around, Kabuki flipped back his hair and unleashed a mouth full of Green Mist directly into the face of The Dragon! Steamboat fell to the mat clutching his face, Bockwinkel who was slumped in the corner was smiling like the Cheshire Cat, and Kabuki just slid back into the hole like he'd never been there. Bockwinkel took a few moments to compose himself, then casually strolled over and stomped Steamboat in the head several times. He then yanked The Dragon to his feet by the hair, kicked him in the gut, and planted him with a Piledriver. Bockwinkel went over and shook Ron West several times until he stirred, then headed back to Steamboat and stomped on him a few more times, before picking him back up and giving him a second Piledriver. This time Bockwinkel covered, and a dazed Ron West counted One, Two, Three. Winner, and Still AWA World Class Heavyweight Champion: Nick Bockwinkel Jim Ross: Bockwinkel is still the champion! Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat has too..... this can't stand, can it Cowboy? Bill Watts: Anything goes inside that cage Jim. I don't like it anymore than you do, but Ricky Steamboat is out of World Class Wrestling for one year. Jim Ross: Where in the world did Kabuki come from? How is he associated with Bockwinkel? Bill Watts: I get the feeling there is a lot more to this story Jim Ross. Hopefully next week we'll get some answers. Jim Ross: Alright Ladies and Gentleman, we are out of time. Please join us here next week for more AWA World Class Wrestling. For Bill Watts, I'm Jim Ross. Good Night Everyone!

Someone is getting a new gimmick

World Class will drop Bill Ash in order to have Joel Deaton on the roster. Thanks Everyone!!

World Class will drop Ted and Jerry Oates and pick up The Batten Twins

I'd always assumed that KawadaSmile did a lot of drugs to enjoy modern WWE so much, but that post pretty much confirms it!

Suggesting people mostly of Italian descent involved in an already shady business in New York in the 60's and 70's could potentially be involved in the mob ..... .....and fuckin' Alex Jones aren't even in the same ballpark. Nice try though. It was an interesting theory, that he presented potential evidence for, then went on to further research and disprove himself. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. Why don't you stick with what you think you are good at Herodes, and go troll the Modern WWE folder.

If I had a copy of that "WWE Then, Then, Forever" meme, I would totally post it right here.

Awesome Show!! I love the gang wars feeling you have going on in Pacific. Love Larry Z getting a dose of his own medicine. Man, Billy Jack really needs to find a more durable friend! Thanks for making The Movement look good! Terry Taylor showing those true colors! Liking this story a lot. Hot Rod picks up the belt!! But Rose won't be down for long, and I'm sure he'll have bad intentions.

Terry Funk is my favorite wrestler of all time, and I always loved it when he would do his fake nice guy commentary (my favorite was when he would pronounce Z-Man like he was saying semen, only with a Z) You captured it perfectly. Loved It. Muraco and Fuji are going to be a force here. Kinda hope they play both sides of the fence. The Funk/Cash/Bruthahood interaction was fantastic, and I look forward to seeing how it plays out. Cash taking a shot at there names was a great touch. Looking forward to The Herders adding more chaos to your already crazy tag division! Bullet/Funk interaction was fantastic, and Buddy steals the show again without even being there! Adrian Street and Lars Anderson may be the greatest "one of these things is not like the other" match up ever. Glad to see Street pick up the belt. The 'Birds seem to be in a little funk around here, but maybe Gordy getting into a nice fight with Hercules is just what the doctor ordered!

Well, I didn't figure it would take too long for Dundee and Lawler's best buddy act to fall apart once one of them got some gold!! Oh, I do love a good wrestler teaming with manager tag team match! Yes! "Ace" is back and predicting his match times! I don't know a whole lot about Art Crews, but I love this gimmick! Also liking the Roughnecks. Brooks is a guilty pleasure of mine, and Sweetan just looks like a perfect fit as a partner for him! Fabulous Ones against The Movement! I think we may have found the next champions!! That'll be a great match! Glad to see George Wells pick up the win against Fergie. I am still glad that I traded Wells to you way back when. You have gotten so much more out of him than I ever would have. Damn, Night of Champions is already looking STACKED with half a card. Great Show!

Man, some big debut's on the house show loop!! Street and the Gang seems like a good pairing to me for some reason! Bullet and Olympia is a nice masked pairing! Looking forward to TV!

Man, there was no going home happy for the fans that night!! Ladd runs the show here in the Rocky Mountains! Loving The Movement ending up working with Ladd when Atlas and Sugar turn them down. Dibiase cheating to get past Mulligan keeps Blackjack strong and should set up a nice rematch down the line.

World Class trades Kendall Windham to Rocky Mountain for Hillbilly Jim World Class trades "Gorgeous" Gary Young to TNT for Bob Orton

-Broadcasting live to our local affiliates in Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, and Missouri, as well as in Syndication across these great United States, the American Wrestling Association proudly presents World Class Wrestling, coming to you this week from the World Class Studio!- We open to Bill Watts sitting at a desk with an AWA World Class Wrestling backdrop behind him. Bill Watts: Good Evening Folks, I'm Bill Watts, and this is AWA World Class Wrestling. I'm coming to you tonight from the World Class Studio, and we are going to have exclusive highlights from this past Monday's Labor Day Star Wars event, as well as an in studio interview with the World Class Heavyweight Champion. So instead of me running my jaws, let's get right to the action! 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -The Highwaymen (Phil Hickerson/Bobby Duncum) vs The Glamour Boys (Steve Doll/Steve Simpson)- Street Fight The Glamour Boys came for blood as they attacked The Highwaymen before the bell, and this one went all over the ringside area. Chairs, the guard rail, and even the time keepers table were involved. At one point Steve Simpson dove off the top rope onto the floor with a crossbody block onto both Highwaymen! The Glamour Boys came close to winning when they connected with Glitz and Glamour, the top tope dropkick/top tope splash combo they use, but it was broken up at the last possible second. The end finally came when The Highwaymen nailed Doll with a nasty spike piledriver and pinned him. Winners: The Highwaymen Bill Watts: The Highwaymen picked up the win, but The Glamour Boys proved they are a lot more than just pretty boys. I don't think we've seen the last of these two teams going at it. Let's take a quick break folks, and we'll be back with more action from Star Wars! -Commercial Break- Bill Watts: Welcome back folks, up next we are going to take a look at the match between Big John Studd and Bruiser Brody. Last weekend at the Superdome, John Studd got an unexpected surprise when David Schultz returned to World Class. Well, Dr. D apparently wasn't finished. Take a look... 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -Big John Studd vs Bruiser Brody- From the moment the bell rang these two monsters just hammered one another with fists and forearms. Brody finally tired of it and rocked Studd with a big kick, but John was game and kicked Brody in the gut and dropped him with a massive slam. These two continued back and forth just beating on each other, until David Schultz hit the ring with his steel chair, and clocked Big John Studd in the head again. Studd hit the mat like a ton of bricks, and Schultz had a big grin on his face. Brody however didn't as he realized that Schultz just got him disqualified, so Brody kicked the chair hard into the face of Schultz and sent him crashing to the canvas. An angry Brody then stormed to the back. Winner, by Disqualification: Big John Studd Bill Watts: I understand that Schultz will be here next week to comment, but now not only does he have Studd and Bockwinkel to contend with, but he has also made an enemy of Big John Studd. I hope this crazy man knows what he is doing. Let's take another break, and we'll be back with Kevin Von Erich and Baron Von Raschke! -Commercial Break- 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -Kevin Von Erich vs Baron Von Raschke- This was a back and forth contest from the opening bell, and it was obvious that both men had one goal in mind, The Iron Claw. Each man was executing moves that centered on one of two things, working over the head, or injuring the hand. At one point a good fifteen minutes into the match, Von Raschke managed to apply his version of The Claw on Kevin, but Von Erich was able to rotate his body in such a way that he could escape. A few minutes later, Kevin caught Von Raschke in The Iron Claw in a standing position. Von Raschke struggled his way to the ropes and pretty much threw himself out of the ring to escape the hold. Once he got to his feet, he walked out for the Count Out. Winner, by Count Out: Kevin Von Erich Bill Watts: There you see how it went down Ladies and Gentleman. Well next week, right here on this show, it is going to be a little different. Next week, inside of a Steel Cage, Kevin Von Erich will meet Baron Von Raschke again, and the only way that match can be won is with The Iron Claw. One man will either submit or be rendered unable to continue inside of the Steel Cage! Nick Bockwinkel walks onto the set, dressed impeccably in a three piece suit. He has the World Class Heavyweight Title folded up and places it on the desk in front of him. Bill Watts: Joining us now, is the AWA World Class Heavyweight Champion, Nick Bockwinkel. Welcome to the show Nick. Nick Bockwinkel: Thank You Bill. Bill Watts: Now Nick, last week the fans saw footage from the Superdome of your match with Kevin Von Erich. They saw the man defeat you and become World Class Champion, but due to a technicality, the decision was reversed and you remained champion. Your thoughts? Nick Bockwinkel: Technicality? My Thoughts? Kevin Von Erich purposefully threw me over the top rope, and the rules of the American Wrestling Association state that throwing your opponent over the top rope is an automatic disqualification. Thusly, I am still rightfully the AWA World Class Heavyweight Champion and was never defeated, because anything that occurred in the ring after the moment he committed that infraction was rendered null and void. Bill Watts: You mean when he put you in The Iron Claw and you were pinned. Nick Bockwinkel: Listen here "Cowboy!" Just because you and your ilk want to see one of your own defeat me and become the champion, just because you wish it be so, doesn't make it a reality. Kevin Von Erich cheated, and was therefore disqualified. What happened after that was a continued assault after the match was over, and I personally believe he should be fined and suspended for such a thing! But based on what I just heard before coming out here, it sounds as though my good friend Baron Von Raschke will be taking care of it next week inside of a steel cage. Bill Watts: Alright then, let's move on to Labor Day Star Wars, where you met Ricky Steamboat and were unable to defeat him. Nick Bockwinkel: Now you are just attempting to bait me Bill Watts. I may not have defeated Steamboat, but neither did he defeat me. For Sixty Minutes we went man to man, and in the end the time limit expired before either of us was able to secure victory. I take absolutely nothing away from Mr. Steamboat, he is a fine competitor and was more than worthy of stepping into the ring with me. Ricky Steamboat walks onto the set, and Bockwinkel does not look happy. Ricky Steamboat: Nick Bockwinkel, I will echo your sentiments. You are one of the best I've ever stepped into the ring against, and you pushed me to limits that I didn't know I had. But you and I both know that if there had been another minute in that match, I would be sitting there with that belt right now. So I am out here right now, asking you, man to man. Give me another shot. Nick Bockwinkel: Absolutely not. You had your chance and you failed to win the title. Ricky Steamboat: I came here seeking vengeance for my friend The Junkyard Dog, and while I still do, now I seek to show the world that as good as you are, I am the man to defeat you and claim that championship. Bockwinkel ponders the words of Steamboat for a moment, then a smile crosses his face. Nick Bockwinkel: You speak often of your friendship with Junkyard Dog, of your desire for revenge. So if you want another shot, I will give you the same terms I gave him. You can have your rematch, but if you don't beat me, you leave World Class for a year! Ricky Steamboat: Deal. Steamboat reaches his hand out to Bockwinkel, who smirks before shaking it. Bill Watts then reaches out and clamps his hands over the hands of both men. Bill Watts: Let's do it right here next week, and just to make sure it's all fair, and since we'll already have one set up, let's do it inside of a Steel Cage! Nick Bockwinkel: WHAT! No, I didn't..you can't....I.... Watts and Steamboat shake hands, as an irate Bockwinkel grabs the World Class Title and storms off the set. -Commercial Break- 1 Fall, 30 Minute Time Limit -Kerry Von Erich vs The Grappler- This one was a war from the opening bell! Kerry was busted open in less than two minutes after the action spilled to the floor, and The Grappler ran him into the post. Grappler stayed on the offensive for a while, just bombarding Kerry with high impact offense and trying multiple times to get a pin fall. Grappler tossed Kerry to the floor again, and this time Von Erich had enough and he sent Grappler crashing into this post! Von Erich pounced on top of him and clawed and ripped at the mask until he tore a hole in it. Kerry then punched away until blood was streaming down the partially exposed face of The Grappler. Von Erich tossed Grappler back into the ring, and the two bloody warriors went toe to toe in the center of the ring exchanging punches and chops. When both were staggered and teetering, Von Erich spun into a Discus Punch and sent The Grappler crashing to the canvas. Kerry shook his head to clear the cob webs, and held his hand up for the Iron Claw. He dropped down and sunk it deep onto the head of The Grappler who struggled briefly, but then seemed to fade away. Referee David Manning counted One, Two, Three. Winner: Kerry Von Erich Bill Watts: It looks as though the war between Kerry Von Erich and The Grappler may finally be over. Folks, I hope you've enjoyed this look at Labor Day Star Wars, and I hope you'll join us here next week when Nick Bockwinkel will defend the AWA World Class Title against Ricky Steamboat and Kevin Von Erich will take on Baron Von Raschke in an Iron Claw match, both of those will be inside a Steel Cage!! See you next week!!

It's really unfortunate that they are doing whatever this is supposed to be. His last few appearances in PWG before going to NXT, Trevor cut some of the best complete and total cocky douchebag, prick heel interviews of his career. I don't know what this top hat shit is, just let him be a dickhead scumbag.

Man, Terry Taylor is on a hot streak!

Ummm... Why is this in the Pacific thread?

-Monday September 2nd- -St. Louis Arena- -St. Louis, MO- -Labor Day Star Wars- Nearly 15,000 fans have packed the St. Louis Arena in St. Louis, Missouri as AWA World Class Wrestling is set to present Labor Day Star Wars! Television cameras are rolling, Jim Ross and Bill Watts are on commentary, Marc Lowrance is ready, let's head to the ring! 1) "Gorgeous" Jimmy Garvin/"Hollywood" John Tatum/"Gorgeous" Gary Young w/Precious vs Barry Windham/Kendall Windham/Sam Houston These six men have been fighting with each other in different combinations for a while, and tonight it came together as a wild six man brawl started the match off. Once the referee got it under control it maintained some semblance of a wrestling contest for a while, but it was obvious that tempers were ready to flare at any moment. When they did, all six men ended up fighting again, and in the chaos Jimmy Garvin was handed something from Precious. He used it to knock Kendall Windham out cold, and once the other four men were cleared out of the ring, Garvin covered Kendall for the One, Two, Three. Winners: Jimmy Garvin/John Tatum/Gary Young 2) "Dr. D" David Schultz vs Stan Stasiak Schultz hit the ring like a mad man and attacked Stasiak before the bell ever had a chance to ring. He was still carrying the dented chair that he had used on Big John Studd, and he smashed it repeatedly into the back of Stasiak who was trying desperately to get out of the ring. Finally he did, and he headed straight up the aisle nursing his wounds. Schultz stood in the ring holding the even more dented chair looking like a mad man. Winner: No Contest 3) Kevin Von Erich vs Baron Von Raschke This was a back and forth contest from the opening bell, and it was obvious that both men had one goal in mind, The Iron Claw. Each man was executing moves that centered on one of two things, working over the head, or injuring the hand. At one point a good fifteen minutes into the match, Von Raschke managed to apply his version of The Claw on Kevin, but Von Erich was able to rotate his body in such a way that he could escape. A few minutes later, Kevin caught Von Raschke in The Iron Claw in a standing position. Von Raschke struggled his way to the ropes and pretty much threw himself out of the ring to escape the hold. Once he got to his feet, he walked out for the Count Out. Winner, by Count Out: Kevin Von Erich 4) The Highwaymen (Phil Hickerson/Bobby Duncum) vs The Glamour Boys (Steve Doll/Steve Simpson) - Street Fight The Glamour Boys came for blood as they attacked The Highwaymen before the bell, and this one went all over the ringside area. Chairs, the guard rail, and even the time keepers table were involved. At one point Steve Simpson dove off the top rope onto the floor with a crossbody block onto both Highwaymen! The Glamour Boys came close to winning when they connected with Glitz and Glamour, the top tope dropkick/top tope splash combo they use, but it was broken up at the last possible second. The end finally came when The Highwaymen nailed Doll with a nasty spike piledriver and pinned him. Winners: The Highwaymen INTERMISSION 5) Bruiser Brody vs Big John Studd From the moment the bell rang these two monsters just hammered one another with fists and forearms. Brody finally tired of it and rocked Studd with a big kick, but John was game and kicked Brody in the gut and dropped him with a massive slam. These two continued back and forth just beating on each other, until David Schultz hit the ring with his steel chair, and clocked Big John Studd in the head again. Studd hit the mat like a ton of bricks, and Schultz had a big grin on his face. Brody however didn't as he realized that Schultz just got him disqualified, so Brody kicked the chair hard into the face of Schultz and sent him crashing to the canvas. An angry Brody then stormed to the back. Winner, by Disqualification: Big John Studd 6) Brian Adias/Jay Youngblood/Mark Youngblood vs Iceman King Parson/Shaska Whatley/Tiger Conway Jr This one stayed surprisingly for the most part a straight up wrestling match for the longest time. Both teams made frequent tags, and neither seemed to have a clear cut advantage until finally Conway resorted to cheating and caught Mark Youngblood with a low blow. After that The Movement worked Youngblood over viciously in their corner and kept the advantage for some time. Finally Mark made the hot tag to his brother and the tide turned. The end came when Adias and Parson were fighting on the floor, and Jay had just tumbled out of the ring with Conway. Whatley was the legal man, and hadn't seen Jay make the blind tag to his brother. Mark had quickly scaled the turnbuckles and executed a picture perfect Flying Crossbody Block onto Whatley for the One, Two, Three! Winners: Brian Adias & The Youngbloods 7) Kerry Von Erich vs The Grappler This one was a war from the opening bell! Kerry was busted open in less than two minutes after the action spilled to the floor, and The Grappler ran him into the post. Grappler stayed on the offensive for a while, just bombarding Kerry with high impact offense and trying multiple times to get a pin fall. Grappler tossed Kerry to the floor again, and this time Von Erich had enough and he sent Grappler crashing into this post! Von Erich pounced on top of him and clawed and ripped at the mask until he tore a hole in it. Kerry then punched away until blood was streaming down the partially exposed face of The Grappler. Von Erich tossed Grappler back into the ring, and the two bloody warriors went toe to toe in the center of the ring exchanging punches and chops. When both were staggered and teetering, Von Erich spun into a Discus Punch and sent The Grappler crashing to the canvas. Kerry shook his head to clear the cob webs, and held his hand up for the Iron Claw. He dropped down and sunk it deep onto the head of The Grappler who struggled briefly, but then seemed to fade away. Referee David Manning counted One, Two, Three. Winner: Kerry Von Erich 8) Nick Bockwinkel vs Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat - AWA World Class Heavyweight Title These two came out and put on an absolute masterpiece of professional wrestling. For every hold a counter hold, for every strike a counter strike. Steamboat used all of his martial arts repertoire to try and confound the technical wrestler, but Bockwinkel was able to overcome. Bockwinkel used every hold, every counter to try and get one over on Steamboat, but The Dragon proved to be a student of the game. On and on they went, back and forth, back and forth. One Counts, Two Counts, counts so close that the fans came out of their seats thinking that a new champion had just been crowned. Bockwinkel caught Steamboat with the Piledriver, but Ricky got his feet on the ropes. Steamboat executed a picture perfect Flying Crossbody, but Bockwinkel lifted the shoulder at the last possible second. Bockwinkel went for the Figure Four, but Steamboat cradled him! One, Two....and the bell rang, signalling the match had gone the full 60 minutes and the time limit had expired. Winner: DRAW

An action packed card from start to finish!! Jerry Grey and The Enforcers with some nice heel cheating to pick up a pair of victories in the beginning. Shaw survives a war and takes down "Animal" Steele, but the real story is Jumbo feeling disrespected and taking out both men, including what I am guessing is the end of Steele in TNT! My boy DJ Peterson picks up a huge win against Killer Brooks! Love It!! Fergie gets a bullshit victory over Wells, but Wells gets a little payback. Dibiase/Blanchard delivers with a beautiful fake out, and Tully snapping on Hennig. The fall out from this should be beautiful!! Glad to see Tito and The Fabs pick up the win! Idol with a big title defense against the Russian invader. Ayala gets the duke over Sweetan, but the aftermath with Brooks and Sweetan holds a potential new tag team combination that would be a lot of fun. The Jayhawks and Adonic/Murdoch fight to a Double DQ? As long as this is far from over, I am very good with that!! The reign of The Funker is over!!! BOOOO!!!!! Lawler gets the win, after some clever help from Dundee. Terry ain't gonna take this shit laying down. I foresee Dundee wanting a title shot for his service as well!! Awesome Card Dude!
