I think you could handle those guys kind of like Freelancers in the 83 project maybe depending on their availability. It would kind of be messy but something to work with at least.

WWF NEWS -There was a lot of excitement and worried feelings coming out of the MSG Network special this past weekend. Word has it that Vince McMahon and his television production people had to meet with the MSG Network representatives and discuss the graphic nature of this past week's show. McMahon talked about the attitude of the WWF changing but the representatives were not too please. This on top of the fact that the WWF is trying to get a deal with the Prism network to air Philadelphia Spectrum Shows and possibly expand with the MSG Network to show Meadowlands shows, the WWF could be in serious issue with these companies. -Speaking of Philadelphia, there are some who feel that two events in a row with cage matches may end up killing the town as the WWF won't be able to draw without the gimmick while others know Philadelphia is more of a "rough and tough" wrestling town and they like the action. We will see how it shakes out after next week's show in Philadelphia, will the WWF be able to secure a deal with Prism or will they need to tone things down? - The biggest news coming out of the shows was the World Title win of Hulk Hogan. While most saw this coming a mile away, some were still concerned about the Hulkster's schedule as he has plans to go to Japan in November, December, and January. How will the WWF fair with its number one draw out of the country? -There is call for a big blow off match between Roddy Piper and Randy Savage to take place. No talk on the specific gimmick, but some are looking for it to be the monster launching point for both men to different heights of their respective careers. - Roddy Piper was said to be possibly going up to Portland to do shots but Don Owen turned down the deal at the final hour. Word is that Piper and the WWF wanted to make sure Owen's business was legit before giving up dates for a star like Piper. Piper is said to be open to going, but we will see how it works out in the long run. The same goes for Randy Savage who has spent time in Memphis. Both of these men have made huge names for themselves outside of the WWF and that potential "blow off" match could be the stepping stone for both of their superstardoms in the WWF. - Steve Williams is said to be shopping around for his services... he like Sgt. Slaughter aren't happy with their current positions and would like them to improve of for their contracts to be void. -The WWF will be bringing in Andre the Giant next week on the road to team with Hulk Hogan against John Studd and King Kong Bundy. These are expected to be monster shows. -Gino Hernandez has quietly been the workhorse of the "B" shows as of late. He has been a successful WWF Intercontinental Champion and some are wondering if and when we will see the big championship match with him and Hogan. -There are preliminary talks of the WWF and Lutte International coming together for a special joint show around Thanksgiving. Word from the officials is that they are going to book all the matches as six-man tags as they have been popular gimmicks in the joint shows as of late.

Contact fenton, he has them.

When are sign ups for the next episode?

With there being some apprehension about the 1985 fresh face draft, how would people feel about putting in the freelancers to the draft? I know it would kind of stink for individuals who wouldn't be able to book some of the big names, while it would pump the draft up. I am good on the topic either way as I see value in both. it would be a short term way to bolster rosters and hype with the draft, while also causing some long term issues with people not getting a chance to use those names down the line. Now on the flip side, some people could still book out talent if they got them. For instance, if Andre was in the WWF, I would still book him out to other promotions as a freelancer even though I retained the full rights to him. Almost taking full control of his freelance bookings.

More excited to see who is available on the other/japan lists. AJPW was rocking at this point so bringing in Americans isn't as important as locking down some of the key figures.

Maybe post in the other thread who is running what so everyone would know what is taken and what would be available?

That would be open for you since Stampede has closed. Only Eastern Canada is being run at this point.

Is it too early for me to start a dirt sheets thread??

Absolutely great little tour there. MACW has got a roster full of talent. I interested to see Harley and Flair on the same level and guys like Magnum, Windham, and Tully build.

If he's anything like me, he might have made his protections with a plan in mind rather than just going for the four best workers or top stars. I hear Bret has a passport and is looking for revenge against Tiger Mask 2.

Perfect. Keep doin work.

Giant Baba is proud to announce that he will be keeping the contracts of current AJPW Triple Crown Champion, Mitsuharu Misawa, along with AJPW Double Tag Team Champions, Toshiaki Kawada and Akira Taue. The final member of the roster that Baba has retained is Kenta Kobashi! Big surprise, I know. Grimmas, will this be getting its own sub-forum so we can keep track of things rather than having it on the main armchair page? Any news on how you are going to have the "American" vs "Others" in terms of draft-ability to Japan? Will it be anyone or anyone who ever worked in Japan? Do we have to stick to history with All Japan vs New Japan tour guys?

Okay, I re-read that and it made sense. I am going to do some diffing on how to put this roster together but I am definitely interested to see who will be available to bring in from the US if needed.

Kind of makes sense to me, I'm good with that if others are. I just think it follows your tiered system and with bigger companies, it is more likely to have four people stay around to keep foundations. My other question was... do I automatically save champions or do they have to count towards my 4?

I'd say tier 1 could go with 4 guys then tier 2-whatever gets to save 3. Would that work?

Looks good... been researching AJPW all weekend so I am looking to bring it in a big way.

Updated rosters today, let me know if there are any mistakes.

WWF on MSG Network 8/5 – New York, NY – Madison Square Garden Gorilla: Welcome everyone to Madison Square Garden and the WWF is coming to you on this very special event. I am Gorilla Monsoon alongside Jesse the Body Ventura. Jesse, tonight the World Heavyweight Championship will be crowned… it will either be your pick, Ted Dibiase or Hulk Hogan. Jesse: It is the match everyone has wanted to see Monsoon! Without a doubt, it is the biggest main event in the history of the WWF up to this point. Gorilla: Fans that’s not all we have tonight… how about the Intercontinental Championship, Gino Hernandez defending against Sgt. Slaughter? Jesse: Hernandez won the title for a second time a couple of weeks ago and if you ask me, I don’t think anyone is going to be able to beat him for that title. Gorilla: How about the World Tag Team Titles… The Russians looking to get a measure of revenge against the Briscoe Brothers. Jesse: We saw the titles change right here a month ago and I don’t think the Briscoes have it in them. Gorilla: Remember the winner of that match will go on to face Bob Orton Jr and Dick Slater along with the mouth of the south next weekend in Boston but then have to face the winner of the big tag team battle royal on Sunday in Hollywood, Florida. Jesse: Gorilla, you know it as well as I do… the tag team titles can be defended anywhere and any time someone can get the upperhand and come away with the gold. Gorilla: You’ve got that right… right now it is time to go to the ring for our opening contest… two fresh young teams in the WWF… let’s go to the ring for action! Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart vs Mando & Hector Guerrero -A great little opener for around 11-minutes of action. Gorilla and Jesse put over Bret Hart and Jim Neidhart who have been teaming together as of late. They talk about their connection and the connection of Mando and Hector, the Guerreros. We get some very solid tag team action and smooth maneuvering but it is the strength of the Anvil that ends up being the trump card and we see him hit a NASTY powerslam on Mando for the 1….2…3! Bret and Jim work the crowd and Gorilla and Jesse talk about their hopes as a tag team and potential. *COMMERCIAL* -We are back at MSG with Gorilla and Jesse talking about the Harts and continuing to pump up the big main event tonight for the world title. They talk about how important the championship is and how important titles are. They put over Gino Hernandez and his second reign as champion. We hear about the Sarge vs Hayes story and they wonder how that will play out here tonight! INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP Sgt. Slaughter vs Gino Hernandez © ­-A premiere match up anywhere in the country as Gorilla puts it. Hernandez is a HEAT MAGNET but he really gets a rise out of the crowd when he comes out with Lord Alfred Hayes! Jesse and Gorilla talk about how Hayes got involved in Sgt. Slaughter’s world title tournament match with Big John Studd and how he appears to be doing the same thing here. Much like the previous match, we get a solid 10-minute contest with Gino playing the heel role better than anyone and Sarge doing his best to come and fight back. Hayes continues to try and get involved and Sarge continues to try and fight a two-man battle here by himself! In the closing moments we see Sarge lock in the Cobra Clutch and Hernandez is reeling but then Hayes gets up on the apron… Sarge lets go and he grabs Hayes… he takes a huge swing and knocks him down but Hernandez comes with a big high knee to the back and then a roll up with a hand full of tights for the 1…2…..3!!! Gino retains the title and he flees the scene. Gorilla and Jesse put it through the roof as Hayes is being helped to the back. Slaughter is irate as he has got crazy eyes and he runs to the back looking for revenge! *COMMERCIAL* -Gorilla and Jesse continue to put over the events of the evening and talk about how special it is that Andre the Giant is here. They talk about this feud that Andre has with Big John Studd. Gorilla says he wants to see them meet one on one in the middle of that ring and he’d love to be the referee for it. Jesse says that the ring would implode due to Monsoon’s weight! They talk about the ring being heavily reinforced for this big six-man tag as we cut to the ring! SIX-MAN TAG Andre the Giant, Hacksaw Duggan, & Tony Atlas vs King Kong Bundy, Big John Studd, & Hercules w/ Bobby Heenan - They don’t get much bigger than this with six of the top stars in wrestling. This one goes about 15-minutes and we get a little bit of everything but the crowd explodes when it is Andre vs Studd. These two guys go tooth and nail in front of this sold out MSG crowd. Heenan is outside the ring pulling all the strings. We see the action cool and then heat back up near the end. It is a game of numbers and with Heenan, the Family has the numbers. It starts with Heenan trying to pull the foot of Atlas, leading to Andre coming out of the ring and then grabbing Heenan in the aisle way! The crowd is going completely wild right now. These events lead to Jim Duggan and Hercules fighting outside the ring but then Tony Atlas getting isolated by Studd and Bundy leading to a nasty slam by Studd and a huge splash by Bundy… and then another splash! Bundy covers for the 1…2…3!! The crowd is going nuts as Bundy and Studd roll out of the ring but Andre attacks them in the aisle way! This one is far from over and here comes Duggan with the 2x4 and he CRACKS Bundy and shatters the board! This is pure chaos outside the ring! *COMMERCIAL* -We are back in MSG and pandemonium has broken loose. We have officials and agents still trying to gain control of the action while Gorilla and Jesse put over next week’s big night in Boston in which the WWF will be hosting a big tag team battle royal. In two weeks, the WWF will be in Philadelphia for the big six-man cage match in which Sgt. Slaughter will put his career on the line against the manager license of Lord Alfred Hayes. They talk about the recent issues with the referees and we see a special guest ring enforcer come out. No telling whom this guy is as he comes out in jeans, a t-shirt and a mask. The crowd has no clue who it is as Gorilla and Jesse build this big contest up… here we go! TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP SPECIAL GUEST RING ENFORCER! The Briscoes © vs Russians -A big rematch for the World Tag Team Titles. Gorilla and Jesse talk about these two teams in a cage match a couple of weeks ago and the bloody brawl that we saw. We get a nice 18-minute contest with Ivan Koloff really getting in most of the work as Nikita comes in and hammers down on both men. Jack and Jerry have got some great experience to pull off of and they use it to their advantage. As we get near the end we see the Briscoes getting close on Ivan and here comes Krusher Kruschev! Krusher runs down but the Enforcer hammers him with a huge right hand in the aisle way! The crowd is going wild here as chaos breaks down in the ring and out of nowhere Nikita Koloff goes for a Russian Sickle on Jerry but he ducks and Nikita just KILLS the referee! Ivan and Nikita try to go for the pin but Jack breaks it up. The Enforcer is trying to get involved but out of the back comes Jimmy Hart with Dick Slater and Bob Orton Jr! They run down and attack the Briscoes! The referees come down and break things up as the MSG crowd is showering the heels with debris! Gorilla and Jesse put it over as we will be right back! *COMMERCIAL* -Gorilla and Jesse are back putting over all the chaos and Gorilla says it is just the beginning as we are about to see a NYC Street Fight! Jesse says that Savage is playing into Piper’s game and this could get out of hand quickly. They both put over the history with these two men and we go to the ring. Nick Patrick is down here and he is shaking his head saying that he won’t be involved in this one… Patrick walks off as Piper looks back and here comes Savage! There is no referee but there is a fight! NEW YORK STREET FIGHT Randy Savage w/ Elizabeth vs Roddy Piper -Gorilla and Jesse put this over in a big way as these two guys come out here for a fight! Both men with jeans and taped fists and the MSG crowd loves it. They take the fight outside the ring and both men are hammering away. The camera is trying to keep up with it as early on we see Piper toss Savage into the ring post and he is busted. Savage comes back with some big strikes of his own and he pulls Piper up on the announce table and PILEDRIVER! MY GOSH! We see some agents come out and try and break this up. Both men are in a bad way here as blood has been spilt but the war is far from over! *COMMERCIAL* -We are back in MSG and there must have been a 10-minute intermission as the crowd has calmed down and the ringside area has been cleaned up. Gorilla and Jesse put over both men’s paths to the title. Dibiase defeated Davey Boy, Hacksaw Duggan, and then Randy Savage. Hogan defeated Bob Orton, Killer Khan, and Big John Studd. They put over the importance of this main event as we see great entrances from both men and the crowd is 100% behind Hogan. We head to the ring… there must be a winner… THERE MUST BE A CHAMPION! WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP Hulk Hogan vs Ted Dibiase -Here we go… main event of the evening… most famous arena in the world… Hogan and Dibiase put together a great contest with Gorilla and Jesse giving it some serious justice from ringside. These guys go 22-minutes and we see Hogan start off hot as he sends Dibiase all around the ring and sells like a million bucks… pun intended. Dibiase comes back with a nasty shot to the ribs and we see him work over the ribs something awful. We see Hogan sell pretty well for Dibiase too and he looks legit with some nasty power moves and Hogan looks to be in serious pain. Dibiase then turns up the attention on the neck and he looks to finish off the Hulkster. He is hammering down on the neck with rights and lefts and then a nasty kick and Hogan goes down. Dibiase picks up Hogan and he hits him with a nasty PILEDRIVER! 1…..2……KICK OUT! HOGAN KICKED OUT! The Hulkster goes to a knee and Dibiase hits him and then Hogan gets up and he is going wild. A couple of big rights and then he tosses Dibiase to the ropes and AXE BOMBER! Dibiase flies through the ropes to the floor! Hogan goes out and throws him back in the ring. Dibiase is able to knee Hogan in the neck! Dibiase goes for a modified cobra clutch and Hogan is reeling but with the will of the Hulkamaniacs he runs backwards into the turnbuckle… Hogan hits the ropes and comes back at Dibiase with an AXE BOMBER! Hogan hits the ropes and LEG DROP for the 1….2…..3!! HULK HOGAN HAS WON THE WWF WORLD TITLE! The crowd is going absolutely nuts! Gorilla and Jesse can’t believe what has happened. Jesse says that Hogan got lucky and Gorilla says that he is the greatest athlete in the world and Hulkamania is here! We see Hogan leaving with the title as this MSG special closes out!

The referee has no choice but to call for the bell as this one has spilled into the entryway! Gorilla and Bobby put this through the roof and talk about the special tomorrow from MSG!

Awesome man, do work when you can.

If someone wants to do at least njpw I'd be down with AJPW and working with tours and such could be w great element. I'd even use the 1995 AJPW roster minus the gaijin and not raid njpw or FMW if need be.
