Let's put a hold on free agency until CPT picks his roster so as to not have any more confusion.

Here is the roster that Redneck picked from page one of free agency... I am sure there will be some conflicts... please see if we can free these guys up to help him out... Bart Sawyer Bugsy McGraw Bulldog Bob Brown Denny Brown Diamond" Timothy Flowers Gary Royal Hacksaw Higgins Jimmy Del Ray Joe Lightfoot Mark Lewin Mike Jackson Mike Shaw Mongolian Stomper Norvell Austin Pete Doherty Porkchop Cash ​Ray Stevens Salvatore Bellamo Scott Armstrong Tiger Conway Jr. Tiger Chung Lee Tim Horner Currently with WCCW as TV Champion - UWF Roster Atlantis Los Villanos (Villano III y Villano IV y Villano V)

I could do a Southwestern promotion. Pm me and we'll work out details

I know we don't have anything completely formal but I would say stick around for the next week or two give some feedback see if we can come up with a solid list to hook you up with the start. Do you have any idea what kind of a promotion you would like to run? I know we could jump you right in if you wanted to do Mexico or even the idea of doing the southwestern promotion and Us Talent. If you were looking at just a US promotion it would take a little mix and match with the individuals that we have right now but it could be done.

I also like this Chris Adams storyline. I know the Gino died I wasn't sure what I could do with him and you have taken him to a new level. That is awesome and the best part is that everyone wants to see what is going to happen next. When it happens it will be something but the story after the climax is going to be really special. I am really hoping that Spiveymania can find its way back to the top at some point but Piper isn't having that shit.

Just an all around spectacular show! I of course loved seeing Sting win and now I need to find a way to bring that back into the WWF fandom... perhaps someone had a handheld. All around through, your presentation is spectacular and the pictures from the games just make it that much better. Awesome stuff from Japan!

WWF Presents: Prime Time Wrestling 4/21 Hosted by Gorilla Monsoon & Jesse the Body Ventura Matches from: Worcester, MA - Centrum Prime Time opens this week with footage backstage at the Boston Garden. We see video of Ric Flair celebrating with Bobby Heenan… we don't see anything from the match just the celebration... We then cut to Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse Ventura who put over the amazing news that Hulk Hogan lost the WWF Championship last night in Boston. Gorilla doesn’t believe that the title change will stand due to the blatant interference from the Horsemen. Jesse says that the title is with Flair now and there is nothing that Hogan can do about it! Gorilla says that Flair will be here next week and we will hopefully have word from Hulk Hogan this weekend on Challenge or Superstars… they put over the return of Bad News Brown to the WWF and here we go! Jim Powers vs Bad News Brown -Bad News is back and does a decent job here against Job Powers… I mean Jim Powers. Decent enough contest with the Judo toss and then an Arm Bar for the finish. Jesse puts over how Bad News was a world class judo expert and he has shown it off here tonight. We cut to the booth where we see Sting with Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse Ventura. He puts over his world travels and talks about going to Europe and Japan to wrestle some of the best talent in the world. He says that you don’t have to look any further than the WWF for the best talent and the Stinger will prove it! *COMMERCIAL* We return to Prime Time and hear Gorilla and Jesse putting over the Hart Foundation and how they retained the tag titles in the cage at MSG. We then see Jimmy Hart come out with Valentine & Honky… he puts over how in two weeks Honky and Valentine will get a chance at the tag titles and he plans on making some big moves in the tag team division and getting the titles back where they belong! The Hart Foundation vs The Dark Patriots (Thompson & Champion under hoods) -The Harts look fantastic tonight against the Dark Patriots who are VERY VERY GREEN but know how to take an ass whooping. We see the Harts hit the Hart Attack and that’s all she wrote. They walk over to Gorilla and Jesse… -The Harts put over the cage match last week against the Fabs that sent them packing. They said they will take on all comers and will accept all challenges. Jesse brings up the team of the Demolition, he talks about Valentine & Honky, and also heard rumblings about Slick purchasing a new team. The Harts say they accept all comers and will put the titles on the line every night of the week and twice on Sunday! Randy Savage will be here when we get back! *COMMERCIAL* Randy Savage joins Gorilla and Jesse when we return as they put over a plethora of topics. Randy talks about losing the title at Mania and how he is vowing to get the gold back into his hands before too long. We then hear him put over some of the talent coming into the WWF but has choice words for the Horsemen… Randy Savage: Yeah you know there is a lot of top talent coming into the WWF right now and uhh yeahh…. You look up and down the line from top to bottom and the names that pop out are the Horsemen. Yeah. So let me get this straight… uhh… Bobby Heenan ditches his own family and bets everything on Windham. When he wins he kicks the Family to the curb and bets everything on Hulk Hogan and he wins… then Heenan signs three Horse’s asses… I mean Horsemen to contract and now we have got a strange smell around here. Huh? Yeah we have got a sense of something that isn’t quite right. I was in the Boston Garden last night. I saw it go down with Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan and brother… I smell not a horse… but a RAT! Perhaps it was a weasel RAT because that’s what I saw. Let’s put it this way… I don’t think that Bobby Heenan would be able to make it through a metal detector huh? Yeah. You see what I am talking about? Huh? Barry Windham… I will give you the due brother… you put me down twice this year… once was by crook and the second was by hook but brother don’t you think for a moment you will be able to do it again. You see… huh… yeah… you see I am going to do everything I can to get that contract signed and when I do… ohhh when I do there will be no count out… there will be no disqualification… there will be no time limit… and for you there will be no survivial. DIG IT! -Before break we cut back to a couple of weeks ago and the injury of Andre the Giant at the hand’s of Sika. “This draws out Andre the Giant who comes out to a huge pop. He is answering the call of Sika and Fuji and comes to settle the score. He fights off Demolition and Muraco before grabbing Sika who fights with him for a moment. Then we see Muraco and Demo jump back on and they Andre tied into the ropes and start working him over good. Fuji slides in a chair and they are wrecking it into Andre’s arm! He is writhing in pain! Gorilla and Jesse are going wild! Sika then runs and NAILS Andre’s arm again and he is hurt bad here but here comes the Bulldogs and Dino! They come to thwart off this attack but the damage is done. Andre is holding his arm and shoulder back up the rampway… this is trouble for the big man!” *COMMERCIAL* -Prime Time is back with Gorilla and Jesse putting over the big injury to Andre and what this could mean for his career. Jesse puts over how Andre has bigger bones and when they break they take longer to heal… this could perhaps be the straw that breaks the camel’s back… HAHA! Mr. Fuji comes out with his men and they all put over the next contest as we have a premiere six-man match coming up. MAIN EVENT Dino Bravo & The British Bulldogs vs Don Muraco & Demolition w/ Mr. Fuji -This one gets a little time as we have seen some issues amongst these men for the last couple of weeks. Almost a WrestleMania rematch if you will but a different story is being told. We see Bravo and Muraco face off in a fun little back and forth while the Bulldogs and Demolition showcase their abilities. The match ends up being a wash when Sika comes out from Fuji’s guise to jump into the ring and attack Bravo! He starts to choke him in the corner and the referee calls for the bell. We see Demolition subdue the Bulldogs and then try to back Sika off to no avail. The big guy is uncontrollable and dangerous. -Jesse and Gorilla put this through the roof as we close out the show with Sika being a mad man and Bravo seemingly coughing up blood from the internal injuries as we go off the air...

WWF NEWS -Last night many consider the biggest match in the history of professional wrestling occurred at the Boston Garden. It was Ric Flair challenging Hulk Hogan for the WWF Championship. The match was quite entertaining for what it was worth with these two bringing out the best in one another but showing that there were some odd moments to get the chemistry. For 28-minutes, the WWF fans of Boston got to see a different side of Hulk Hogan… one that many hope will stay. He worked a great match using his Japanese repertoire while Flair played the chicken and did a lot of cat and mouse. When it came time for Flair to work the knee he did… he did it in such a manner that Hogan looked as though he would never be able to walk again. This match really gave us a taste of what these two could, should, and hopefully will be able to do in the future… then the ending came. Just as Hulk Hogan was making the comeback of a lifetime, seemingly impervious to pain, the Horsemen struck. It was Anderson, Blanchard, and Windham all coming down and each of them getting their comeuppance by Hogan but it was the attack outside of view by Heenan that made the difference. Heenan seemingly handed something to Flair who got up and clocked Hogan right between the eyes… bloodying up the champion before Flair could make the cover and chance the scope of professional wrestling. Now the question is how in the hell did this happen and why did it happen so quickly? Early in February negotiations began with Ric Flair to come in… while on the other side of the coin Hulk Hogan heard about this and then began his own negotiations with Japan. Hogan got the okay from Vince to go over but the deal ended up being more lucrative than he could imagine with two dates a month on top of merchandising in Japan that differs from the WWF deal. Hogan’s major money comes from what people buy of his and his attraction in Japan is growing and growing the more he is there. When the Flair deal went through, Hogan went ahead and signed his Japan deal but it wasn’t the same as what Vince had though and it was Hogan who signed on for 3-dates a month with some heavy kickbacks. Vince decided he wanted to bring in Flair and have he and Hogan tease their confrontation only to build to a bigger event… then that changed. When Hogan signed the Japan deal, Vince knew that three Japan dates ended up meaning losing his prize champion for 9 days a month with travel to, the day of, and travel back. With the WWF running roughly 6 days a week, 5 weeks a month, that is a total of 30 days… and then losing their champion for 9 of those could hurt gates. Vince decided to pull the trigger and let it happen which has then shocked many of those involved in the WWF and the wrestling world. One change has also happened outside of the spectrum… television tapings. If you noticed, today’s television tapings started on Monday with Prime Time being the first show taped rather than the last as it was before. Prime Time opened with Gorilla and Jesse talking about Flair winning the title unbeknown to some fans in attendance. The WWF’s handling of this situation is paramount over the next couple of weeks, especially with Hogan being gone as much as he will be. With the title out of his hands is this a chance for Hogan to test the market and book himself however he wants outside his Japanese dates? Will he get back in the good graces with McMahon and the WWF? Will he hold the title again? With Flair as champion and new ACE of the company, these are some serious questions that will need to be answered and time will be the only thing that can tell us if and when they are.

WWF Presents: Wrestling Challenge Hosted By: Gorilla Monsoon & Bobby the Brain Heenan Matches from: Providence, RI – Civic Center Featuring: Demolition, The Rockers, Bull Ganter, Jim Powers, & The Honky Tonk Man -Heenan also went nuts putting over the big WWF Championship Match tomorrow night in Boston with Ric Flair challenging Hulk Hogan. -We also get news that Andre the Giant has suffered a broken arm at the hands of Sika! He will be out of action! Ric Flair: Hulk Hogan! I told you big man that I was coming and pal I am here. Tomorrow night in Boston Mass… brother I am coming for you and I am coming for that World Title! Never before and never again Hogan… tomorrow night that title comes to the REAL WORLD’S CHAMPION and there is nothing that you can do about it. I am going to push you to the limit and show you why I am without a doubt the MAN in this business. Hogan a lot of people talk about your size and strength but just like Muhammad Ali… I am going to rope a dope you for 59-minutes pal and in that final moment when you have lost it all… I am going to put you down and raise my hand high and put the belt right here around my waist where it belongs! WOOOO! WWF Live 4/19 Hartford, CT - Civic Center MAIN EVENT Hulk Hogan & Tito Santana defeated Greg Valentine & The Honky Tonk Man -After the match Ric Flair came out with the Horsemen and confronted Hogan. They put over the big showdown tomorrow night in Boston.

We also got to hear from Hogan and Flair who said this was a once in a lifetime match that will go down in history! -We also get news that Andre the Giant has suffered a broken arm at the hands of Sika! He will be out of action! Hulk Hogan: Ric Flair everyone is talking about the match that we’ve got tonight in the Boston Garden dude and it is going to be a once in a lifetime contest. I am going to come out there with all of my Hulkamaniacs by my side and they will keep those Horsemen at bay. But understand this Ric Flair… you call yourself the sixty-minute-man but I know your weaknesses. I know you can’t handle the power and strength of the 24-inch pythons and when they wrap around you and start to choke you down and out it is going to be over for you… over for Bobby Heenan… and over for the Horsemen brother! WWF Live 4/20/86 Boston, MA - Boston Garden Bad News Brown defeated Jim Powers The One Man Gang defeated bull Ganter w/ help from Slick The Rockers vs Power and Glory went to a double count out Tito Santana & Wahoo McDaniels defeated Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard via DQ TEXAS TORNADO Demolition defeated The British Bulldogs TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP The Hart Foundation © defeated Honky & Valentine w/ Jimmy Hart INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP Randy Savage vs Barry Windham © went to a 30-minute draw WWF CHAMPIONSHIP Hulk Hogan © vs Ric Flair w/ Bobby Heenan -The unbelievable happened on this night that many are calling the Boston Massacre. It was the Massacre of Hulk Hogan and his historic WWF Championship run. He and Ric Flair put on a 28-minute classic that gave us just a taste of what these two could do inside the ring. It looks like Hogan was going to make a historic comeback after Flair worked his knee over in the worst way… but then it all turned. It was first Windham, then Blanchard, and Anderson who all come in but they were beaten away by Hogan. It was all foil though as it was Bobby Heenan who gave the final blow by handing something to Ric Flair and when Hogan turned around it was lights out. Hogan went down, instantly bleeding from the head. Flair covered him and got the 3-count and the crowd was shocked. Heenan stood triumphant with the WWF Heavyweight Champion of the World… Ric Flair!

I love the ending of the Abby match and talking about the fans. I know in listening to Ric Flair's shoot interview he goes in depth about that. You are painting a very good picture of PR and I know for an individual like myself it is getting me more interested to see exactly what was going on down there.

Hacksaw is coming in in a HUGE way already. Great to see him getting the kind of a push. On the other side of the coin... how hard the mighty have fallen in regards to Backlund. Obviously your booking is sound but he just doesn't have the luck tonight... hopefully he does in the future.

Terry Gordy has been a monster in the NWA... but he falls here tonight. Something is fishy with that. He is honestly a guy who can be pegged to be next in line but not so much tonight.

I like seeing Ole down here doing some work. He has legs in the NWA and can still be a prime time player if used the right way. I also agree with the ideas of Nikita and Martel and also Butch Reed. You've got some stories to be told here for sure.

As someone who has wrestled in a bar... and done a spot on top of the bar... I have a great appreciation for that spot and the finish for the Nasties... great stuff.

I am going to go full on... Round of 32 Race Orndorff Funk Hashimoto Martel Dusty Piper Pillman Abby Jumbo Hansen Studd Terry Taylor Nikita Kerry Inoki Sweet 16 Race Funk Martel Piper Jumbo Hansen Nikita Kerry Elite 8 Funk Martel Jumbo Nikita Final Four Martel Nikita Finals Martel (Can't go against the champ and what a run he makes here...)

Is there a bracket challenge for this? I could see it going one of 32 different ways

WWF Live New York City, NY – Madison Square Garden Hosted by Gene Okerlund & Lord Alfred Hayes The Rockers vs Hercules & Paul Roma w/ Slick went to a double count out Curt Hennig defeated The Honky Tonk Man w/ Jimmy Hart Bad News Brown defeated Barry Horowitz Bull Ganter defeated the One Man Gang w/ Slick via DQ Nikolai Volkoff w/ Slick defeated SD Jones WWF CHAMPIONSHIP Hulk Hogan © defeated Greg Valentine w/ Jimmy Hart -After a great 18-minute contest that showed why Greg Valentine is really one of the unsung workers in the world of wrestling we got the moment that everyone has been waiting for. It was Ric Flair face to face with Hulk Hogan. Hogan had won the contest; he was drenched in sweat; and he was posing for his fans. Then Flair came out dressed in a custom suit and stood right up to Hogan. Flair had to look up at the champion but Hogan was staring down through Flair. They said a couple of things to one another in the ring but this was all just to set up the Horsemen, Tully, Arn, and Barry getting on the apron ready to pounce. Flair pointed his finger right in Hogan’s face and Hogan slapped it down as the crowd got excited. Hogan then laid the title on the ground and challenge Flair before the Nature Boy backed off and the Horsemen did the same. They backed off up the aisle into the darkness of MSG and the crowd got a glimpse of what was to come. MAIN EVENT CAGE MATCH JIMMY HART HANGING ABOVE THE RING TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP The Hart Foundation © vs The Fabulous Ones -The excitement of the previous angle built the anticipation of this big main event. The Harts and Fabs knew they had something to prove and they went out for a 15-minute bloodbath. With Hart above the ring the crowd was going wild for this one from start to finish and all four men got busted open one way or another. First it was Kiern and Lane from bouncing off the steel and then we saw Bret hit a gusher that was all over the ring. The Anvil got busted after Jimmy Hart dropped a chain down into the ring and the Fabs used it to open him up. The eliminations occurred when Neidhart was actually pushed out of the door by the Fabs to get the 2-1 advantage. They beat Bret within an inch of his life and worked the fans into a frenzy. Then we saw both Fabs try to go up the cage but Bret Hart found a way to get up there and stop Lane. Kiern made his way down and hit the floor but Bret grabs Lane and hit a PHENOMENAL SUPERPLEX OFF THE CAGE and the crowd was stunned! We then heard a silent but growing “Let’s Go Bret!” chant start to reign throughout the arena and both men slowly, covered in blood, climbed up the side of the steel and when they got to the top they threw some right hands but then Bret grabbed Lane and smashed his head on the top of the cage… Lane fell and crotched himself on the ropes and Bret started to go over the top. Kiern tried to run and stop him but the Anvil came out of nowhere and hit a shoulder block sending him flying. Bret fell to the floor and he and the Anvil held the titles high in the air. This was an amazing moment on a monumental night.

WWF Presents: Prime Time Wrestling Hosted by Gorilla Monsoon & Jesse the Body Ventura Matches from: Brantford, Ontario, Canada – Civic Centre Prime Time opens this week with Gorilla and Jesse putting over the show tonight along with a big broadcast coming from MSG tonight. They put over how Hulk Hogan will be defending the WWF Championship against Greg Valentine while the Harts will face the Fabs in a Cage Match for the Tag Titles! Jesse says that Hogan is too afraid to be anywhere near Ric Flair right now while Gorilla says that he heard Hogan has already signed a match to meet Flair next week in the Boston Garden! Jesse says he will be there to see the end of Hulkamania! Gorilla doesn’t think it will happen that way… right now though they head to the ring! The British Bulldogs vs Los Conquistadors -A good tag team contest with the Bulldogs showing why they are one of the top teams in the world. They handle the Conquistadors with ease and get a good victory as they continue to build up their resume to get a shot at the titles. *COMMERCIAL* -Prime Time is back and Andre the Giant comes in to talk with Jesse and Gorilla. Andre says that he is looking forward to traveling to Japan, Europe, and Canada to wrestle all the top contenders. He says that he knows Sika has called him out and he would love to challenge him anytime he is ready! Gorilla and Jesse set up the next contest... Dino Bravo vs Sika w/ Mr. Fuji -Fuji is out here in full force with all of his cronies. Sika and Bravo have a very hard fought contest with no punches being pulled. We even get some unintentional juice on Bravo when Muraco rams him into the ringpost outside of the ring! He is juicing hard way and we see is affect the match in such a way that Fuji throws his cane into Sika who just starts destroying Bravo with it before he fights them back but he numbers are just too much. -This draws out Andre the Giant who comes out to a huge pop. He is answering the call of Sika and Fuji and comes to settle the score. He fights off Demolition and Muraco before grabbing Sika who fights with him for a moment. Then we see Muraco and Demo jump back on and they Andre tied into the ropes and start working him over good. Fuji slides in a chair and they are wrecking it into Andre’s arm! He is writhing in pain! Gorilla and Jesse are going wild! Sika then runs and NAILS Andre’s arm again and he is hurt bad here but here comes the Bulldogs and Dino! They come to thwart off this attack but the damage is done. Andre is holding his arm and shoulder back up the rampway… this is trouble for the big man! *COMMERCIAL* Prime Time is back with Gorilla and Jesse unsure about what just happened with Andre the Giant. They wonder how badly he was injured and just what will happen to Sika. Jesse is sure there will be a fine and perhaps a suspension… but the more important deal is what he did to Andre and if the Giant’s arm will be able to recover! They put over the next contest as we head to the ring... Billy Jack Haynes vs Steve Lombardi -A decent enough showcase for Haynes who is fighting off that rib injury before WrestleMania. He does have a lot of his spunk back here and shows off some great skills. The press slam on Lombardi sets up the Full-Nelson which is a highlight. The submission victory looks great on paper as Billy Jack is back with another victory… but then… -We cut back over to the announce table and Bobby Heenan walks out with the Horsemen. They put over how they are just about to jump in a private jet and head down to Madison Square Garden. They put over how they are a unit and you won’t see them out here fighting on television against nobodies. They face the best in the world and they beat the best in the world without question. Then we see Billy Jack Haynes walk over and challenge them if they think they are so tough. Billy Jack says that this may not be a family but there is definitely something fishy in the gene pool! That brings Arn unglued as he starts to undo his shirt and they are making their way to the ring! The crowd is solidly behind Billy Jack as he is the first one to really stand up to these guys as we see him and Arn jostle for a moment but then Billy Jack does get the upper-hand and reverses him into the Full Nelson! That ends up being for not though as Tully and Barry run and jump into the ring and attack him from behind. We see Heenan orchestrating all of it while Flair comes in and they really put the boots to Billy Jack! They are stomping and kicking away at those ribs and then we see Arn and Tully set him up for a big SPIKE PILEDRIVER! Flair runs back over to the microphone… Ric Flair: HOGAN! You see this… you see what happens when you mess with the Horsemen. You wanna challenge one of us.. You challenge all of us! Hogan… we are going to get on a jet right now… we are coming to Madison Square Garden and we are coming for you! We are coming to take you down Hogan! I am not waiting for Boston next week… I am coming to take that title from you TONIGHT! WOOOO! -Gorilla and Jesse put this through the roof as they tell everyone to tune into the MSG network if it is available… if not they will try and get coverage next week on Challenge and Superstars!

I don't know how effective Superstar would be at this point in his career but sparingly and in the right spot he can definitely make an impact. I am also a fan of Schultz and what he could become in this renewed career due to some rule changes.

Triple H actually showed up to work... awesome. Love to see some Gaijin love and of course seeing Sting do work is always a pleasure.

Saw Gino on the Andre doc (which I highly recommend). Fun to see him playing out here. I will just go out there and say how much I love the randomness of your promotion in terms of not having any idea who will win. You really throw together some fun matches and always exciting to see who will come out on top.

I really liked the debut of King Kong Bundy from television. He has the opportunity to be a MAJOR star here. Also good use of talent in Kansas City... you can feel the Horsemen being gone... but you are covering your tracks with your top guys and great matches.

Fabs come right back in in a big way. I love the feud with the MXE. I also don't mind the Studd loss but I am hoping for him to come back in a big way and when the time comes for him to lose the title it makes it very meaningful. He is really the unsung hero of World Class IMO.
