Jesse: This is going to be one of the biggest matches on Superstars McMahon and I think there is a title change in the air. Vince: I think a lot of people feel the same way but the Briscoe Brothers are two of the toughest competitors in the world of wrestling and they may just pull it out. Jesse: Right McMahon, we will see… what I want to talk about is the World Title tournament. My pick won his match last night and he’s headed to East Rutherford New Jersey this Saturday night and I think he will be in MSG Sunday for the Title! Vince: I think you are referring to Ted Dibiase. He was successful last night and we will have those results coming up… right now it is time for tag team action with Bret Hart and Jim Neidhart!

They talk about 8 to 10 teams being contenders and tonight we will see it go down with the Briscoes and Orton and Slater.

They also put over the big contest with Hogan vs Killer Khan one more time but with so much on the line, anything can happen. Jesse puts over Hercules one more time as he is in the ring! Hercules w/ Bobby Heenan defeated Barry Horowitz -Heenan has got Hercules looking phenomenal tonight and he handles Horowitz with no concerns.

It is about a 12-mintue affair and it is solid and smooth tag team wrestling. Vince McMahon puts over the experience and history of these four men wrestling throughout the country. We see Slater and Orton get the upperhand and advantage but the Briscoess come back with a great fire. Out of nowhere we see someone coming down to the ring… THAT’S JIMMY HART! He throws the Megaphone in to Orton who NAILS Jack Briscoes right between the eyes and he is busted open! The referee calls for the bell as Jimmy Hart is in there calling the shots. Jesse puts over how he is the one who got the contract for these guys and Vince doesn’t like the looks of this alliance with Orton and Slater!

Gino Hernandez defeated SD Jones -Gino looks great with the IC title around his waist. He is 100% in that ring and looks to be in great shape. Gorilla puts over contenders like jimmy Snuka, Hacksaw Duggan, and Sgt. Slaughter as contenders for Hernandez not to mention Rick Martel getting a shot down the line. Gino doesn’t seem to mind about those challengers as SD Jones gives him a nice match but in the end it is the hot shot suplex followed by the middle rope elbow for the 1…2….3! Gino works the crowd and Gorilla says he has a long list of challengers for that title! Who will be the man to take the title from him?
  5. None of us have admin powers for that... one thing you could do is just go in and edit them to clear everything out.
  6. Much like the current day brand split, there is some definite competitor inside the USWA between World Class and Mid South. I am interested to see what happens with some sleeper but great guys like Adams and Butch Reed. I could see them both being top tops in the USWA to go against someone like Lawler and the JYD. I am still amazed to see how well you are balancing the two rosters and all the talent. Keep doin work!
  7. True dat I think he is probably the most versatile character in the history of wrestling. He was soooo good at so many things... managing, wrestling, color... he was simply the best and it is so awesome to be able to use him in every facet of the game.
  8. I just think that when the WWF would run these loops, a nice way to get a small pop is to throw Heenan in... especially against Hogan.

  10. WWF Would like Andre the Giant on August 5th for an MSG special.
  11. All set.
  12. I think this was just a how do I get involved in the project thread. No worries.
  13. I updated the roster database and the free agency list. Double check both for your rosters and then let me know if there is anything that needs to be fixed.
  14. I don't think we need to overthink this whole thing. Deaths are more important than retirement as most of the main guys will be around. If it is truly questionable, do your own check like most of us have and make the moves needed.
  15. Whatever the list you sent me is what I put on there. I won't have time this weekend to update if someone else wants to and then send me the list.
  16. Thanks to Kev for double checking on our Free Agents. The list is updated with individuals who are active and those who were not were taken off. Please make sure you take note of that on your own rosters using cagematch or wrestlingdata. Thanks!
  17. He is just asking about him. Albano is counting as your 20.
  18. Ricky Gibson is his 20th guy... Looking forward to what you put together Boon.
  19. Here is Boon's preliminary roster... Knoxville Preliminary Roster Bill Ash Dirty Rhodes Doug Vines Jeff Sword Phil Hickerson Tommy Lane Mike Davis The Flame Matt Borne Billy Travis Dan Spivey Ken Lucas Ron Starr (Mr Wrestling) Roy Lee Welch Larry Hamilton Josh Stroud Gene Ligon Tony Falk Billy Spears Ricky Gibson He has the choice to pick up one more person... free agency is back open for all those concerned.
  20. You can go ahead Boon and pick up 20 guys from Free Agency and get going if you'd like. I am sure we'd be more than willing to throw you some more if you want to stick around. Free Agency will be on hold until you pick your 20 on the FA thread.

They talk about the four world title tournament matches but also the IC Title Match with Gino vs Martel and the tag team championship cage match. They talk about some of the new faces in the WWF and Jesse puts over Masked Superstar as one of the toughest competitors in the entire world.

We see a couple of big things here as William Regal’s arm is completely destroyed by The Barbarian and the Viking outside the ring, which causes the DQ victory for the Brits. The other happening is seeing the Missing Link destroy Nick Patrick with a clothesline and he is out of control. The Bulldogs are able to fight the army to the back while Hayes, Barbarian, and the Viking walk back… Missing Link is getting escorted by security. William Regal is getting helped by medics. All hell has broken loose here. Vince and Jesse put it over in a big way as we will be live in Philly tonight for a HUGE card… don’t miss it!
  23. WWF News -A very interesting weekend for the WWF as the World Heavyweight Title tournament started along with another joint promotion with Lutte International. Vince McMahon is very excited about these joint shows and the WWF sees this as a smart business move for the foreseeable future. INs & OUTs -Gene Okerlund made his debut in the WWF over the week as he was in the event center. It looks like the WWF made some sort of a deal for him out of the AWA. -The Masked Superstar has returned to the WWF and looks to be receiving a major push. He is primed to be a number one contender for the World Championship. -Dynamite Kid is back in the WWF and has immediately been rejoined with Davey Boy Smith. The Bulldogs except to be a major team in the future. -Jimmy Hart has signed a deal with the company.... no word on who he will be managing as of yet. -Jimmy Snuka also returned to the WWF. He was already on tour teaming with Hogan and Atlas against the Heenan Family. -Hector and Mando Guerrero are going to be coming into the WWF as a team in the future. No word on if Chavo will join them down the line. -Rick Rude has been released from his contract. Management felt wanted to see if he could get some more seasoning before coming back in. -Even though they will be on television tomorrow, William Regal & The Missing Link will be off television. They shot a double angle in the main event for Superstars to take both men off television. WWF on the Road -The WWF has just signed a deal with the Kiel Auditorium to put out television tapings there once every five weeks. Word coming out of the WWF is that they would like to sign one more town for television tapings but it may not happen until 1985. They would like to have a 6 town loop to help with markets in the Mid-West. There is no talk of the WWF holding live shows in the area yet, but it could happen with the roster continuing to grow. WWF on the Networks -The WWF has signed a deal with the PRISM Network to show some of the Philadelphia house shows. This along with the Madison Square Garden shows on the MSG Network. Word coming through is that the shows from the Meadowlands may also be aired as specials. If the WWF is able to add in two more major towns, every show from MSG and Philly would be televised but the companies feel that once a month is a good start but they would like every 5 weeks to separate out due to other sports broadcasts.
  24. Yeah, in 1984 they were doing television tapings from St. Louis so I figured this would be an organic move.
