Boon

So it looks my spare time is getting less and less to spend on this project. I have two week long breaks coming up abroad before Xmas, aswell as working in retail my spare time is not what it was. I will have time come the new year and will be able to put my time back into this project.

Maybe I am missing something here but can you explain this result? Just a typo, I'll edit it...

Standard Florida action with Dusty and Sullivan and clan. You also have some great talent in the wings to step up, Mike Shaw id love for Sullivan to turn to the darkside as i really think Shaw is underrated, Hennig is well Hennig and I just dont know about Mike Von Erich, but hes a great name to have on the roster.

What a show, full of twists and turns, upsets, leg breaks and purses, its what Southwest is all about. Butch turning and running off to Memphis in the process, El Gran Apollo coming so close, but just didnt have enough, Adnan causing more issues for Duggan and now Robert Fuller coming in. And then to finish off the show we get that dick Tully causing more issues. I agree with Bill Ash and hopefully some one picks him up and uses him for what he's worth. Just week after week great action.

Good first few weeks here in Memphis, Im a massive Memphis mark and you have the feel of the territory down to a tee. Im interested in the little sister promotion, ive found that although it doesnt really add much to the game its always nice to have a low rent indy show to book and have some fun with. Now with Butch Reed along with Austin Idol (If he turns) you have a real back bone of heels for Lawler which im really looking forward too...

The O Zone has to be my favourite name for a tag team in this league. This promotion with the addition pick ups come across like a very traditional premium territory with the likes of Zbyzko, Bock and Dory.

Looking forward to this, first promotion to up sticks and move.

Really enjoying the rebirth of ICW. I have to say Im very interested in your use of characters to help your vision and good work on holding off in bringing Savage back, I think i did a good job holding of debuts, when this first started, so credit to you for building for his return, itll mean so much more when he does appear.. Keep up the good work.

Sunday 23th October Gordon starts off this week's Southwest Championship Wrestling highlights by congratulating The Fabulous Ones on their win over The Texas Dynasty in the Texas Tornado Street Fight which makes them now the AWA Southwest and National Tag Team Champions. He says this week they are defending those championships in a 'Last Dance' Steel Cage match with The Texas Dynasty that will mark the last time the two teams will face off in the year of 1983. Gordon says he'll let the fans know next week who was victorious in that Cage match but this week he's going to be talking about Killer Khan's reign of terror over Texas this past summer and the man who was able to stop it: 'Hacksaw' Jim Duggan. Gordon says before we take a look at Killer Khan however we'll hear the words of Tully Blanchard that preceded the arrival of the Monster from Mongolia Gordon says some of the actions of Killer Khan were too brutal to be shown here on television so he'll only be able to show a few choice highlights. Gordon says hope was almost lost for the fans of Southwest Championship Wrestling as they saw so many of their heroes carried out of the arenas, never to be seen again. However unbeknownst to them, help was on it's way in the form of the 6'3, 300 pound man known as 'Hacksaw' Jim Duggan Gordon explains the rules of a Coward's Way Out match which meant no pinfalls, no submissions, no DQs and no countouts, the only way to win the match was to have your opponent literally run back to the locker room and concede the match. Gordon says that was the last time that Killer Khan has been seen in Texas and since then Jim Duggan has made quite a mark on Southwest Championship Wrestling, including making quite an enemy in the form of Sheik Adnan al-Kaissie. Gordon says he'll talk more about that issue on a future edition of 'This Week in the AWA' but next week he'll be looking at the partnership turned bitter rivalry that developed between Jose Lothario and one of the hottest young stars on the rise in the world of professional wrestling, El Gran Apollo. === Run down of this weeks action in The AWA === We return with Gordon Solie who says we are now going to a special 3-on-2 Southeastern Tag Team Titles match from this past monday in Birmingham Alabama. And for those of you that saw Southeastern Championship Wrestling last night on WTBS, you will know the rematch has been signed for tomorrow evening in Birmingham, but this time in a steel cage match so there will be no outside interference from Cornette and the man we now know as Big Bubba Lynch. === Run down of this weeks action in The AWA === We now have a match that happened just two nights ago at the Mecca in Milwaukee on an AWA show, in a match that has been coming for months. === Show Ends ===

They have spoken with Stanley Blackburn and he has agreed with them to one last title match but this time to be held inside a 15 foot high steel cage to keep anyone and everyone out of the ring. They go on to say that Stanley Blackburn agreed the match it comes with a catch, if Gibson and Horner fail to defeat the Heavenly Bodies then they will be forced to part as a tag team but it’s a risk their willing to take to regain the titles.

Tonight though he has the match against Josh Stroud where he makes quick work of him, defeating him in 2 minutes with a Running Power Slam. After the bell rings the Studd Stable storm the ring and begin to beat down Buzz Sawyer. Sawyer puts a fight to give the fans some hope, but the 3-on-1 is too much for the champion as the Studd Stable take control. Much like a few weeks ago the fans are calling for “Wildfire” Tommy Rich to come and help him but there’s nothing. The locker room empties with Gene Ligon, Marty Jannetty, Ted and Jerry Oates, Tony Falk, Tommy Wright, Rick McCord and Ron Ritchie come to the ring to break up the Studd Stable from there brutal beat down of Buzz Sawyer. === Run down of this week’s action coming to Alabama and Georgia === Southeastern Tag Team Champions Bobby Eaton and Tom Pritchard, The Heavenly Bodies along with their manager Jim Cornette and the mystery man join Gordon Solie and Charlie Platt.

Thanks Goc will probably still drop them in a few weeks...

Although I dropped Ted and Jerry Oates I edited the post within an hour as I had a change a mind. I'll need them until the last moment I need to drop them, 1st November?

Always welcome new writers, and this sounds good. If there are talent on the roster you don't want we love a draft here...

Been a bit slow of the marks this week, I should have this weeks shows up by Tuesday. Would be Sunday but off to see the NFL at Wembley on Sunday afternoon...

Because there is no stopping one person picking up 7 people on the rookie draft, when everyone has drop out and then trading them here.. Time for there to be just an Free Agent List that people can pick up to fill up there rosters if they so wish...

Example, if I'm at 34, I can't go over so will need to drop one for another. The same rule shouldn't apply for goc let's say on 26?

Yeah, only if under the cap, if not you have to drop one.

I don't understand?

With the cap, I reckon we just drop the trade on here...

So Kevin if you pick up a scrub from the draft, just trade him for Anderson...

I'm sure it's been covered, but have you searched for results from him wrestling under a different alias? (Elvis Rock Monroe, Pretty Boy Roque, Rock Monroe). Might give a bit of a broader picture of him...

The Shadow Riders are a tricky one for me, I liked how Kris booked them, but I have nothing for them at the moment. So that's why their be on my B loop until I find something for them. And as I like my trios (Armstrongs, Studds, Heavenly Bodies, Fire Gang?) I might have to put them with Dutch when he returns. It probably isn't the person you think it may be...

The mystery man then picks up Cornette and places him on top of the motionless Gibson for the referee to count the 3 for the Heavenly Bodies to retain the titles.
