WCW Presents: Future Shock- Greensboro, NC – Coliseum Sunday December 24 Brian Pillman, The Z-Man, & Davey Boy Smith vs Los Boricuas What a way to kick things off… we’ve got the three young guns of WCW out here to show the world what they’re all about. Then we’ve got Savio Vega and the Boricuas… needless to say we know the outcome before things get going but the Boricuas make it interesting and we get to see all the shine of Pillman, Z-Man, and especially Davey Boy. The finish is pretty nice when Davey Boy hits Castillo with a powerslam that shakes the entire ring! Pillman with the flying splash for the 3-count and that’s all she wrote. WCW opens up with some hot young stars that are putting it all on the line. WCW United States Tag Team Championship The Nasty Boys vs Power & Glory w/ Brother Love A very interesting/understated match. The Nasty Boys have this style… grunge… hardcore if you will… and the fans here in Greensboro… they like it! The fans are really behind them… or they just really hate Brother Love… which could also be the case. Either way, Power and Glory look good and we get a fun 9-minute match up. In the end, it is Roma who rolls up Knobbs with a handful of tights and we’ve got NEW US Tag Team Champions! The Power and Glory celebrate with Brother Love! Owen Hart vs Jushin Thunder Liger What a debut for Liger who comes in with a lot of hype. Owen Hart is no slouch… he does two things here… number one… he makes Liger look like a million dollars. He sells and works his style so well. The second thing that Owen does is brings some intensity in the ring. He chops the living hell out of Liger and breaks him down. Tony and Jesse do their best to try and keep up but there’s just a lot of maneuvers and even Ventura says he doesn’t quite know what to call the moves but he has never seen action like this before. Around the 13-minute mark, these two have gone absolutely all out. We see a couple of huge spots. Liger does a moonsault off the apron on Owen outside the ring. We also see a suicide dive from Owen on Liger that ignites the crowd. The finish sees Owen leap with a cross body but Liger with a dropkick right in the chest. Owen is hurt… Liger picks him up for a BRAINBUSTER and the 3-count! What a match! We get a promo from Ric Flair as he stands with Gordon Solie. They talk about tonight being about not only the past but the present and more importantly, the future. Flair says he has held the title and defeated everyone in his path and he’s beat Luger as well… tonight… it is the record player playing the same tune… Ric Flair walks in with the world title and walks out with the world title. Flair says he’s going to introduce a new tune in 1990 called undefeated… and tonight he is going to show Luger why you have to beat the man in order to be the man and pal… Ric Flair is THEE MAN! WOOO! WCW Television Championship Ron Garvin © vs Rick Martel w/ Brother Love In a hard-fought contest - these two went to a 15-minute time limit draw. Both men got in some offense and it was Garvin who really upped his game where Martel moved and counter-moved every chance he got. The finish saw Garvin knock Brother Love out with a huge right hand but it led to Martel locking in the Boston Crab… time ran out but Garvin didn’t give up. He was wiped as the bell rang… Martel thought he won but it was a draw. Martel tries to grab the title but Rugged Ron has got one more right hand in him and just knocks Martel out cold! NWA & WCW Tag Team Championship The Road Warriors vs Arn & Tully © w/ Ole Damn, there is some serious hatred out here. Hawk and Animal don’t seem to give two shits about the Horsemen here and they beat the hell out of them. This one goes about 12-minutes… back and forth… Arn and Tully are pros and leave it in the ring. They isolate Animal and wear him down to lead up to the big hot tag to Hawk who comes in like a house of fire. Chaos ensues and now Ole gets involved. The ring is mayhem… in the midst of it all… we see a situation where the referee gets bumped. He goes down. As he starts to get up… he sees Hawk toss Arn Anderson over his shoulder and over the top rope to the floor… but the referee goes back down. Animal sets up Tully and then Hawk with a huge DOOMSDAY DEVICE… here comes another referee… and the 1….2…..3! The Road Warriors have won it! They are the new tag team champions! The crowd is going wild. We get a nice promo from Lex Luger who puts over the huge bout with Ric Flair coming up in a few short hours. He says he’s bee training his entire life for this moment… he feels like this is the last opportunity to show he will be the athlete of the 90s and be the man to usher WCW into the future. He feels at his physical peak. He feels that mentally… he is stronger than he’s ever been. His endurance is second to none. Tonight is the night that the total package puts it all together and rightfully becomes the UNDISPUTED WCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! Sting vs Dan Spivey w/ Sherri A great showcase for both men… prime time contest. Sting has to go up against the bigger man and Spivey is able to show off his strength while Sting is ever cunning and flights back no matter what the odds. Spivey works the neck and the back of Sting and even Sherri is able to get some eye rakes in a couple of times. Sting starts to mount a comeback… the crowd is getting behind him… when he goes for the Stinger Splash in the corner… Spivey gets his boot up and just rocks his shit something awful! Spivey works the fans and he makes the end is now sign… he picks up Sting and taunts the crowd once again… he sets him for the powerbomb… hoists him up but Sting goes over his shoulders… backslide… 1…2….3! STING WON IT! Sting rolls out of the ring and the crowd explodes… Sherri is in there arguing with the referee! Sting is escorted to the back and the crowd is cheering him on… Spivey is pissed. We get a special segment in the back… Jim Herd is with JJ Dillon… Arn, Tully, and Ole… the Road Warriors come in… Jim Herd makes the announcement that the title match was under review and it has come to light that Hawk threw Arn over the top rope, which by the rules of the NWA is a disqualification. In WCW, it is legal. Therefore… Jim Herd is returning the NWA world tag team titles to Arn and Tully! The Road Warriors are the recognized WCW World Tag Team Champions. It is then announced that on December the 31st… Arn and Tully will defend the NWA World Tag Team Titles against the Rockers live from the Omni in Atlanta! International Triple Crown Tommy Rich vs The Great Muta w/ Paul E Not quite a popcorn match… but let’s just say that Muta is almost in a league of his own right now. Paul E is just ruining the experience of the fans at ringside. Jesse Ventura is putting Muta over as the next WCW world champion. He says he’s the rightful number one contender. Tommy Rich gets a lil wildfire under his ass and makes a nice run at it but then Muta hits a spinning heel kick. We get the flipping back elbow in the corner. The running shining wizard! Muta then finishes him off with the Moonsault and the 3-count! He holds up the International Triple Crown title… could he be in line for the world title? One last big pump up… Scott Hall is by Jesse Ventura… Ventura introduces him as the Diamond Sudd… Scott Hall. Ventura says that Hall is sharp as a razor and mean as a rattlesnake. He’s 6’5” and 275 pounds of twisted steel and sex appeal. He is going to take the WCW by storm… or by force… whichever he wants… he will make his debut in the Omni next week! It is time for the World Title matchup… let’s head to the ring. We get grand entrances from both men… Luger walks out and he has got Sting next to him… the crowd is going wild. Flair comes out with JJ Dillon and the Horsemen behind him. Right away… the referee is quick to dismiss Arn, Ole, and Tully… they are putting up a fight but here come the Road Warriors and then the Rockers behind them… they escort the Horsemen out of the arena… we then go to Mike McGuirk… Mike: Ladies and gentlemen, it is time for our main event of the evening and it is for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, the challenger, he stands 6’5” and weighs in tonight at 285 pounds… from Chicago, Illinois… the reigning United States Champion… the Total Package… Lex Luger! His opponent… the champion… he stands 6’1” and weights in tonight at 245 pounds… he hails from Charlotte, North Carolina… he is the reigning and defending WCW World Heavyweight Champion… The Nature Boy… Ric Flair! WCW World Championship Lex Luger vs Ric Flair © w/ JJ Dillon This is the moment fans have been waiting for… perhaps… we do have some loud Sting chants… Luger doesn’t seem phased… here we go. These guys know each other quite well and they work their match and the fans into a slow build. Luger gets the advantage early… chases Flair around… Flair comes face to face with Sting and the crowd explodes! Sting backs him off and Luger grabs Flair and they get back in the ring to keep up the work. Flair then turns the tide with a clip the knee and then he takes control. This one goes around 21-minutes… we get a nice hope spot from Luger but Flair gets back in charge… we then get into the finishing minutes… Flair is looking to finish off Luger but the Total Package fights back… but then we see Dan Spivey come down and he attacks Sting. Sting has to brawl with him… they go into the crowd… here come the Horsemen again but this time they come through the fans… they try to get involved but the Road Warriors and Rockers come down again and they are brawling outside the ring! Flair locks in the figure four inside the ring…. The chaos outside the ring clears up… Luger is able to get out of the figure four and he seems impervious to pain! Flair with some kicks and chops but Luger isn’t giving an inch. He flexes and yells and Flair backs down. We see two big back drops and then the powerslam! Luger picks him up and makes the sign for the rack but once he’s up the knee buckles… Flair goes for broke and continues to work the knee and then he signals for the Figure Four and he goes to lock it in but Luger with the roll through and the 1…2…..3!!!!! We’ve got a NEW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! Flair can’t believe it! He goes right up to the referee who is shaking his head…. The ring fills as we see Pillman, Zenk, Davey Boy, the Rockers, Owen Hart, Ron Garvin, the JYD, Big Josh… they all enter the ring and cheer on Luger… then the cheers stop as the men part… Sting is shown… he has the world title… he walks over and turns Luger around and gives him a huge hug! Sting turns him around and puts the title around his waist and raises his arm! The crowd is going wild. Ric Flair is escorted to the back by the Horsemen…Luger is shown one more time with the world title… fans more next week! Thank you for joining us for FUTURE SHOCK!

Sting can’t believe it. Sherri is hugging him and crying? Dangerously covers his mouth out of shock…. Flair smiles… what have we just seen? Owen Hart comes in and does a great job in a singles match… we hear that he will be taking on Jushin Thunder Liger on December the 24th at Future Shock! We see Davey Boy cheering him on. We find out that Pillman, Z-Man, and Davey Boy will take on Savio and the Boricuas at Future Shock in a six-man tag. Our Main Event tonight is a WCW Tag Team Championship Showcase with Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard defending against The Junkyard Dog & Big Josh. It is a decent match - JYD may be past his prime but he’s got some star power. Big Josh looks good as he and Anderson have an interesting interaction. Tully is able to finish the touches and get the win with a nasty roll up with a hand full of tights. The Horsemen hold both sets of the titles, NWA and WCW, high but then out of the back come the Road Warriors and my oh my does the crowd pop! Anderson and Tully back off a little bit and the Road Warriors jump into the ring… the Horsemen think they have outsmarted the Warriors… but wait just a damn minute… who is that behind Arn and Tully? OMG! FORMER WCW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS… SHAWN MICHAELS AND MARTY JANNETTY! THEY ARE HERE! WE GOTTA GO! WCW The Main Event - December 10 Eric Bischoff & Bob Caudle bring us in and we see the announcement from last night… Jim Herd announces that Sting is going to face Flair at Future Shock… but then Luger hands in the US title to secure his shot and he takes the match versus Flair at Future Shock. We’ll hear from Luger tonight! Plus, tonight, we’ll see the Nasty Boys, Sting is here, and we’ll see the Horsemen in six-man action. Let’s head to the ring. We get a couple of fun bouts… the Nasty Boys win a squash and actually play face a little bit… not overtly but rather just looking to the crowd for approval. We see the Boricuas (Castillo & Estrada) in tag action with Perez outside the ring roughing up the opponents when he gets the chance. A former WCW guy who is back… but under a different incarnation… Crush returns to WCW with some bleached hair and an orange outfit. He handles his competition without problem and finishes him off with a double hand chokeslam! Now, the moment we’ve been waiting for, Luger comes out… Bischoff says he doesn’t want to beat around the bush… he wants to ask the question plain and simple… WHY? Luger smiles… he says that he didn’t want it to happen like this. He didn’t want to do this. He says he HAD to do this! Luger was the one who was supposed to face Flair but it was Sting who took his spot and Sting didn’t win. Now people are trying to spin this where I (Luger) TOOK Sting’s shot… but you need to remember that the US title secures him as the number one contender… look at the top 10! I (Luger) was number 1! Sting… this was never meant to be a me vs you thing… in fact… Sting I don’t think I can win the title without you! Sting… I am asking you… as my friend… stand with me and help me win the World Title at Future Shock. Be in my corner. I know Flair will have the Andersons and Tully and JJ… we know their tricks… we know what they’ll do… I need the backup and Sting… friend… you’re all that I have left! We go back to another couple of bouts… we see Gary Hart bring out his men… but he’s got a new one with him… he calls him the Berzerker! This big oaf is a nasty competitor and we see him destroy his opponent. The crazy part is… he throws him on top of the turnbuckle and then hoists him over the top rope and gets a 10-count out victory! Our next match up sees The Z-man in singles action and he looks great. Following up from earlier… Sting is here and he’s with Bob Caudle… Sting says he doesn’t hold Luger responsible for what happened… in the sense that Luger was taking the shot that he rightfully deserves… but so do I. Lex… I am telling you right now… I will be there…. I will be there for you and brother… I will stop the Horsemen with everything I’ve got but inside the ring… it is all about you and Flair… may the best man win! Sherri is then out there causing a fuss and wondering why Sting would help!?! Main Event time… Harley Race and Bob Orton are in tag team action against the team of Wahoo & Tatanaka. This is a decent match… nothing crazy. Harley and Orton use their experience to get control and end up trapping Tatanaka while Wahoo tries to get involved but it’s too late and we see Race drop that nasty knee right to his skull and get the 3-count.

Lots of good stuff from the Bluegrass state. The Coal Miners Glove may be the gimmick match made for Bluegrass... hell even the Coal Miner title like the brass knuckles title... either way. Good to see you back on the block!

SuperClash may be the best card ever assembled in our game... better than WrestleMania this year for sure... my hope is for Nikita but my heart knows it is Hogan. "When a fall occurs, the match stops. The Winner of the fall stays in the AWA, the loser of the fall leaves the AWA. Both men leave, the match continues." This is one I am going to pay close attention to. the AWA has got it all and is now beginning to rewrite the history books.

No doubt... PCW has been built for the 90s... the explosion is going to be big and last a long time with guys like RVD and Waltman... but also the elite talent you've already got... all the fixings of a great foundation.

Sorry I haven't been able to pop in yet - It didn't take you long to get this promotion off the ground. Son of a Beach Grizzly just gets me in the giggles. Great start up and now we see the end of the year turn and PWF will build throughout 1990 with no doubt.

Additionally - I need to remove Pez Whatley to make room for Tommy Rich on the list.

Jose Estrada Jr. signs with WCW - I already used him but messed that up... I need to drop Iron Mike and Steve Lombardi - that makes room for Estrada Jr and also puts JJ Dillon on my list. I should be at 65 with that.

WCW Power Hour - December 1 Gordon Solie & Kevin Sullivan bring us in to WCW Power Hour. We’re in the Georgia Mountain Center with a unique look. Solie and Sullivan are a fun crew of old school - classic heel v face playoff. We get a couple of big announcements including the moment in which Lex Luger retained the WCW United States Championship. We also see the new television champion, Ron Garvin with a big victory. We see the WCW Top 10…. WCW Champion - Ric Flair United States Champion - Lex Luger Sting Television Champion - Ron Garvin Harley Race The Junkyard Dog Tully Blanchard Hercules Arn Anderson Kevin Sullivan The Berzerker Yeah - not too exciting of a crew right now but here on the Power Hour - we’ve got a couple of debuts… first… from Cincinnati, Ohio, the former Bengal… Flyin Brian Pillman makes his debut in WCW and looks amazing in singles action. Former Television Champion The Z-Man makes his return and has a nice showing. We also see the former NWA World Tag Team Champions, the Road Warriors show up with Paul Ellering… they make it clear that the Horsemen have the titles and their coming for them! We get a big plug for WCW Future Shock which has been moved to December the 24th, live on Pay Per View from Greensboro… we will see WCW Champion Ric Flair defend his title… we’ll find out his challenger tomorrow night on World Championship Wrestling. We also see that Jesse the Body Ventura will be making his debut at Future Shock! Our main event sees Gary Hart Present his army with Abdullah the Butcher and the returning Samoans winning in six-man action. The final segment sees Kevin Sullivan get a big, huge, box delivered… he tells Gordon that it is his Christmas Present and he’s going to open it… but Gordon tells him he needs to wait… we’ll see you tomorrow night. World Championship Wrestling - December 2 - The Return of Sting! Tony Schiavone brings us into World Championship Wrestling… but he says we have to go to the back… Eric Bichoff is there and he is welcoming the Horsemen… but it is Flair, Tully, Arn, and Ole… wait a second… and JJ Dillon! What in the world is going on here? The Original Horsemen are back! We’re back and the string of big time debuts continue… Tonight we see the debut of Rick the Model Martel. Martel plays off an uber rich fashion aficionado. He handles his action in the ring with ease. The Junkyard Dog is back in WCW and he looks huge but handles himself in the ring with ease. We get a big promo and we see the RETURN OF STING! Sting comes out to an amazing ovation… he works the crowd… says he’s returning from an attack from the Horsemen but he knows at Future Shock… he is going to be the one standing across the ring from Ric Flair and he is going to end 1989… as the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION…. Wait just a moment… here comes the US Champion, Lex Luger! Luger comes out and he is pleading with Sting to give up his chance at Flair… Luger tells him that they’ve been friends for a long time… they’ve gone up and down the road… but Luger says this is his chance… his destiny is to become World Champion and Future Shock is the place for it to happen. Sting says he can’t do it… Luger says he has a trump card to play but he doesn’t want any hurt feelings with Sting… that is until… Paul E Dangerously shows up and he isn’t alone… he has got the International Triple Crown Champion (European, Mexico, & Japan)... the Great Muta! Muta doesn’t have anything to say as Paul E lays it all out on the line… he says it is simple… Muta is the International Champion… that puts him right in line to face Flair and at Future Shock - that’s exactly what is going to happen! We go to commercial with a lot in the air. We’re back with a tag team encounter… Harley Race and Bob Orton are teaming up and beating the hell out of some jobbers. Television Champion Ron Garvin looks good tonight… The Nasty Boys are also returning to WCW and they are as nasty as they come. Their not pulling their punches and without question they’ve got some ill-intentions! We’re back… Tony Schaivone is standing by with the Horsemen… in all their Glory… Flair showing off the WCW title… Arn and Tully the WCW and NWA tag titles… Ole and JJ are full of themselves… we hear about Future Shock… Flair says the list of challengers may be a mile long but it’s an inch thick when it comes to the guts and glory. He is going to show up with the title and he is going to walk away with the title as he has done before and will continue to do! Arn and Tully put over the tag titles and say that the Road Warriors may be jaw jacking but they will be the ones getting their jaws jacked if they keep it up. Ole says it is a new day in WCW - the titles are where they belong - the Horsemen are where they belong - but then we see… Jim Herd? What the hell is this guy doing? Herd isn’t much on the microphone but he does announce that next week - he’s going to announce the number one contender for the WCW title and who will face Flair at Future Shock… he also announces that Arn and Tully may have beat the Road Warriors for the tag titles last month… but they will have to do it again at Future Shock because the MATCH IS BOOKED! Main Event - Flyin Brian & The Z-Man look great in a tag team encounter against Savio Vega and Perez… but we see Estrada and Castillo come out to help Vega… this brings out Owen Hart and Davey Boy Smith who pop the crowd huge to even the odds. Pillman with the flying cross body for the victory and we’ve got a lot of new faces and big news coming next week! WCW The Main Event - December 3 Eric Bichoff & Bob Caudle Main Event from the Georgia Mountain Center with Bichoff and Caudle is a fun little mix. Eric has a lot of excitement and Bob is well Bob… just an all timer. They put over the HUGE weekend of WCW action. They run through all the debuts from the week and then we see a recount of them in action tonight… Flyin Brian and the Z-Man in tag action - The SST in tag action with Abdullah and Gary Hart - Rick Martel as the millionaire model - The Nasty Boys - with a main event of Owen Hart defeating Castillo in a singles match. This was just a wrap up from the weekend and a way to bring out all the new faces for the fans to see one more time… but there was one big angle… we had Lex Luger interviewed by Bob Caudle and Luger is pleading for Sting to give up his shot at Future Shock. He is telling him that he doesn’t want to take it away from him but he has what he needs to do it if he has to. We find out that next week on Power Hour - Sting will be in the arena… we find out the card for Future Shock next Saturday on WCW… fans WCW is heating up!

With the new rules - WCW will bring in Paul Ellering, The Brooklyn Brawler Steve Lombardi, & Mike Sharpe Also - made another move with WWF - sending Sean Mooney to WWF for Bruce Prichard aka Brother Love as an active member of the roster. Abdullah the Butcher Davey Boy Smith Harley Race Jushin Thunder Liger Kevin Sullivan Matt Borne Ole Anderson Sting Rick Martel Ron Garvin Scott Hall The Berzerker The Great Muta The Z-Man Bill Irwin Black Bart El Gigante Nailz Kona Crush Pez Whatley Vampire Warrior Marc Mero Flyin Brian Jake Roberts Junkyard Dog One Man Gang Buff Bagwell Savio Vega Scott Norton Owen Hart Sgt.

Nope just forgot the NOT damn phones

Awesome Starrcade - I was surprised by the Road Warriors getting the W, but that was what needed to happen IRL. NWA goes out on a high point with a lot of opportunity for the future with the WWF and WCW both benefiting from the transition.

I am excited to see your take on the WWF - I've written it time and time again and I know that it can be tedious and rewarding at the same time. The IP with Rumble, Mania, King of the Ring, SummerSlam, and Survivor Series are all worth it and fun to plan. Looks like SNME is going to be a staple as well... can't wait to see you get back in action in January.

Nov 28 Survivor Series IT’S THE SURVIVOR SERIES where Teams of 4 compete in strategic team competition to see who will SURVIVE!

The Big Bossman, Davey Boy Smith, Owen Hart, & Jim Neidhart Vs Rick Martel, the One Man Gang, Michael Rotundo, & Zeus w/ Slick One of the hardest hitting brawls to kick things off and it goes off when Zeus has to be held back by his teammates. Owen Hart and Jim Neidhart set up the OMG who gets rocked and then the Bulldog with a huge powerslam! Michael Rotundo is eliminated by the Bossman via the Bossman Slam This brings Zeus into the ring and he destroys everyone. He tosses Owen Hart over the top rope to the floor into the guardrail! Zeus throws the Anvil into the ringpost. Zeus with a bodyslam on Davey Boy out of the ring to the floor Zeus and Bossman then throws hands and Bossman does his best but it doesn’t matter - Zeus breaks him down and we see him crush his neck and Bossman oversells. Zeus is DQ’d For all intents and purposes Martel is in there 4 on 1… but that quickly changes… Martel goes and makes a quick pin on Bossman and he’s gone! Martel then gets the Anvil who is soaking the shoulder injury and pins him. By this point - Owen - is still shook but he gets up and gives Martel a nice run for his money. These two go about 7 minutes and Martel makes Owen looks like a star. The finish sees Owen go for a flying dropkick but Martel moves and counters it into the Boston Crab for the tap out! Martel is bouncing around like he won the world title… he’s drenched… but then the referee tells him to turn around… the British Bulldog is still there! 5-more minutes of Bulldog and Martel…. The Million Dollar Model comes so close to a pin but it is Davey Boy who locks up the crucifix out of nowhere to get the 3-count and the crowd goes wild! The British Bulldog is the sole survivor! Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Koko Ware, Rick Steiner, & Scott Steiner Vs Dino Bravo, Earthquake, Jacques Rougeau, & Ray Rougeau Pretty quickly we see Jim Duggan set up Ray Rougeau for a big Frankensteiner and he is eliminated! Jacuqes Rougeau is eliminated when Koko hits him with a nasty dropkick off the top rope! The Earthquake gets in and he eliminated Koko with a powerslam Earthquake then eliminated Rick Steiner with a Earthquake smash Dino Bravo set up Scott Steiner for another Earthquake Smash Duggan had to fight off Quake and Bravo - 2 on 1 - and he did his best but the numbers were too much. Duggan says F’ it and gets the 2x4 for the DQ. Bravo and Quake are the survivors! Randy Savage, Tito Santana, Ax, & Smash Vs Terry Funk, Great Muta, Dan Spivey, & Mean Mark w/ Paul E Dangerously Perhaps the main event or co-main event depending on how you feel. This one sees all eight men get involved before things start going crazy. The first elimination happens when Mean Mark is nailed with the Tito Flying forearm! We then see Funk and Muta take turns and we see Ax eliminated from the Piledriver. Smash is then eliminated from the moonsault from Muta. Then… as if time stops… Muta and Savage go toe to toe for 5 minutes! Tito on one side - Funk and Spivey on the other - they just watch these two go move for move. The brawl sees Savage with a huge double ax handle smash outside the ring but Muta comes up with a MYST and Savage’s face is covered! We see Funk get involved and then Funk and Savage go into a tirade that spills into the fans. Officials and agents come down and stop these two but the fight spills to the back! It is a double countout for both men. Tito is the last man standing on his end and we see him take everything Muta and Spivey have but the fire of Tito is strong. Dan Spivey tries pick up Tito for a powerbomb but Tito pops over… hits the ropes… FLYING FOREARM! 1….2….3! Muta and Tito are left - they do some fun stuff - Muta looks to get close to finishing but then Tito fights back. Tito then goes for broke with the flying forearm but Muta ducks… hits the ropes and once Tito gets up it is Muta with a SPINNING HEEL KICK and the 3-count! The Great Muta is the sole survivor! Dusty Rhodes, Jimmy Snuka, Butch, & Luke Vs Jake Roberts, King Kong Bundy, Samu, & Fatu w/ Gary Hart A hot start with the Bushwhackers getting the double teaming in and we see Samu go down to a double battering ram! Fatu goes down next when Rhodes nails him with the elbow - but he no sells - then turns around for Jimmy Snuka who hits him with a high cross body! Jake Roberts nails Butch with a nasty DDT and it is all over for him. King Kong Bundy with an avalanche on Luke and we’re tied up 2 - 2 King Kong Bundy gets caught with a couple of huge elbows and then Snuka with a huge dropkick and he goes out of the ring to the floor and even Gary Hart can’t get him up for the 10-count! Jake Roberts sets up a DDT on Snuka and then he does it again - Jesse says it is because his extra hard head! The showdown of Jake and Dusty is a fun one - these two continue their issue with one another. Jake gets Dusty in a bad way and gets him out of the ring and hits a DDT on the floor… Dusty looks to be out cold…. Jake rolls him back in the ring… and then he ties up his foot in the rope. Jake looks over and he goes to get his bag… Earl Hebner is telling him he’s going to DQ him… Jake grabs Hebner and throws him out of the ring to the floor! Jake gets Damian out and watches it slither over the Dusty Rhodes… Jake wraps the snake around Dusty and we see Rhodes coughing up white foam! Officials and agents run out… they get Roberts to pull the snake off… Jake looks out to the crowd and he carries the snake to the back! It’s announced that Dusty won via DQ. Dusty Rhodes is the sole survivor The Ultimate Warrior, Andre the Giant, Shawn Michaels, & Marty Jannetty Vs Rick Rude, King Haku, The Barbarian, & The Warlord A big time spot for Warrior and Rude Andre gets a big moment when he sits on Warlord for the 3-count. Marty Jannetty gets his face kicked off by Haku and goes own for the 3-count. In a big moment…. Shawn and Rick Rude do some awesome work for a couple of minutes that gets the fans going but the superkick is ducked and Rude with a RUDE AWAKENING for the 3-count! We get a taste of Warrior and Rude which ignites the crowd. Then we get a series… well… it is something… first we see Andre get control and he hands out a couple of ass thumps and huge headbutts. Haku then comes out of nowhere with that jumping superkick and Andre goes out of the ring to the floor. Is that Heenan under the ring? He’s holding Andre’s leg which leads to a 10-count! Andre has been eliminated! Warrior is left on his own! Andre is then able to kick Heenan off and then he grabs the ropes when Rude hits them and Rude falls out of the ring to the floor! Andre holds Rude outside the ring and now he’s been counted out! Warrior then has to vanquish the Barbarian with some shoulderblocks and gets the 3-count! Warrior - with whatever he’s got left… fins a way to pick up Haku for the shoulder press slam! Warrior hits the ropes and BIG SPLASH for the 3-count! Warrior then clotheslines and tosses Heenan out of the ring for good measure. The Ultimate Warrior is the Sole Survivor! November 29th - WWF Live in Boston Garden Dusty Rhodes defeated Jake Roberts in a TEXAS Bullrope Match! Andre the Giant defeated Rick Rude via DQ in a WWF title match In what many would consider an upset - the Powers Pain defeated the Rockers when Bobby Heenan got involved and became the NEW WWF Tag Team Champions! The Ultimate Warrior defeated King Haku The Big Bossman defeated Zeus in a no holds barred match - it wasn’t pretty but has something to bite into Rick Martel defeated Koko Ware The British Bulldog defeated The One Man Gang Owen Hart & Jim Neidhart defeated Michael Rotundo & Curtis Hughes November 30th - WWF Live in Meadowlands Randy Savage defeated Terry Funk in a TEXAS DEATHMATCH Tito Santana defeated the Great Muta to WIN the Intercontinental Championship!

The Samoans defeated The Bushwhackers King Kong Bundy defeated Jimmy Snuka The crowd goes home happy - I take my bow with the WWF - I hope you all enjoyed it!

I believe NWA had Sean Mooney and Gordon Solie along with Bob Caudle that I’d like to add to my crew. Ted Turner and Jim Herd will be the promoters instead of the crocketts id also like to add mike mcguirk if she’s out there as a ring announcer.

Quick hits.... gonna get this up and then Survivor Series then transition to WCW. Nov 25 WWF Raw Just a couple of days left… Survivor Series here we come… let’s see what happens. Davey Boy Smith vs Michael Rotundo Davey Boy looks magnificent tonight… Rotundo is doing well as a good hand. Slick is walking down with Zeus. Davey Boy can get the big powerslam with the 3-count… . Here comes Zeus and he is ready for a fight but the Bossman comes out of nowhere and he’s face to face with Zeus as we’ve got officials and agents down here. Bossman pulls out the night stick and points it at his face… oh my! Koko B Ware vs Dino Bravo Much like before… Dino is in great shape… Koko flies around for him and makes him look awesome… but Bravo utilizes his strength to take control of the contest. The finish sees Koko leap with a crossbody but Bravo counters it into a catch and powerslam for the 3-count! Demolition vs The Great Muta & Terry Funk These guys go about 18-minutes… Funk and Muta are a formidable team… but Demolition are on a different level. Funk and Muta get some offense in…. They isolate Ax…. Demo is able to make the big tag to Smash for the hot tag but nothing doing as Muta hits a spinning heel kick out of nowhere. Paul E is getting involved outside the ring… wait a second… GREEN MYST on Smash! His white face paint is covered in green and here comes Funk with a piledriver! 1….2…3! Funk and Muta walk out with the win and Demolition look good but not good enough tonight. Snuka vs King Kong Bundy Bundy is a bad ass dude…. Snuka gives him the fight of his life and even busts Bundy’s nose. We get some juice but Bundy seems to be enraged! Bundy gets control and ends up nailing an Avalanche in the corner and Snuka is hurt… here comes Bundy again but Snuka sneaks through the ropes… Bundy nails the turnbuckle… Snuka then leaps for a crossbody but Bundy moves… Snuka hits the ground and then here comes a big splash for the 3-count! Andre vs Rick Rude w/ Heenan Much like their matches before… Rude sells like a million dollars for Andre. The Giant can’t really do too much right now… but he stands around for Rude to work aorund him and it is somewhat entertaining. In our final match of the night - we see the Heenan Family come down… the Rockers start to stop them…. Then we get the Warrior our of nowhere and the crowd is going nuts…. Warrior with a huge shoulderblock on Rude and then Andre comes out of the side with a big elbow and the 1…2…..3!!!! Andre beats RUDE! The crowd is going nuts. The Family is in shambles. Heenan better regroup before Thursday!

not happy about that one.

I remember the Gauntlet they had - it was the premise for the 3 shows in a row. I'd rather do small write ups for the 3 rather than 1 big. I think there will be fun pieces on each show to highlight plus it will tie everything together.

Nov 18 WWF Raw Raw opens this week with Gorilla and Jesse pumping up the Survivor Series something big. They talk about week two of the Survivor Series Showdown matches…We’re also told about a special event on November the 29th called, No Holds Barred. It will be a special event with title matches and some other special events. Right now it is time to head to the ring… We’ve got the Powers of Pain vs The Rockers…. Owen Hart vs Rick Martel… Scott Steiner vs Jacques Rougeau… Dusty Rhodes vs Fatu… and the Skyscrapers take on Demolition! The Rockers vs The Powers of Pain The Rockers really bring it all out tonight and they are flying all around the ring. The Powers of Pain are solidly becoming one of the better teams in the WWF under the tutelage of Heenan. The POP come about as close as you can when they hit Jannetty with a powerslam/diving headbutt combo! Miuchaels has to break up the pin at 2.99. Jannetty then goes for broke as he gets up and goes for a cross body on Barb and they go out of the ring to the floor. Warlord then turns around and BOOM out of nowhere… Shawn Michaels with a superkick and the 3-count! Scott Steiner vs Jacques Rougeau This one slows things down a bit. Jacques is a consignment pro. Scott Steiner is Raw but damn he’s got some intensity in that ring. We see a couple of big moves with Jacques hitting a high knee and it reels Scott. Jacques is looking to finish but Scotty is able to get control and hits a twilt-a-whirl slam out of nowhere! Scott then sets him up for the FRANKENSTEINER! 1…2….3! Owen Hart vs Rick Martel Another in a huge lineup of matches. Martel and Hart go move for move for 15-minutes and the crowd is going wild. Owen even comes close 2 or 3 times. We see Owen hit a huge moonsault off the top rope and is JUST that close to a victory! Martel, sweating bullets, is reeling. Owen then sets up Rick for a spinning heel kick but Martel counters with both forearms and then locks in the Boston Crab out of nowhere! Owen has no choice… he has to give it up and Martel walks away with the win… Dusty Rhodes vs Fatu The American Dream has got the crowd rocking and rolling here tonight. He is pulling out all the tricks of the trade and jumping and jiving around and Fatu is selling everything in a big way. The bionic elbows can’t seem to stop Fatu but a nice poke to the eyes does… Dusty then hits a cross-body and the 3-count! Demolition vs Skyscrapers Perhaps a dream match for some…me… but the Skyscrapers (Spivey and Mean Mark) take on Ax and Smash in a hard-hitting 13-minute brawl. This one goes in and out of the ring. Paul E is outside the ring and he’s trying to get his guys pumped up as much as he can. By the end of it, these four men have beaten the hell out of one another. We see Smash get destroyed with the double powerbomb but Ax stops the pinfall attempt. The Skyscrapers double clothesline Smash out of the ring but Ax comes back and double clotheslines them out! Now, all four men are outside the ring. Ax tosses Mean Mark into the guardrail and it comes off the rails no pun intended. Security comes out here as the fight is spilling into the crowd. Officials and agents get down here and break things up… it is a double count out… no clear winner but damn did they leave some bumps and bruises.

Nov 11 WWF Raw The start of the Survivor Series showdowns as we have got 5 big matches tonight… all consisting of survivor series team members taking on one another. Gorilla and Jesse put over how teamwork is the key on Thanksgiving night… but they need to survive to get there! Hacksaw Duggan vs Ray Rougeau Fun contest for the USA vs Canada stuff. The Rougeaus and company definitely lost something when Jimmy Hart left. Here, Ray just doesn’t have the strength to handle Hacksaw who comes at him with some huge shots and Ray flies around for him. The finish sees the big clothesline and Ray is put down as the crowd is solidly behind Hacksaw! The Bushwhackers vs Jake & Bundy King Kong Bundy is back and with Gary Hart, he looks like a pure monster. Jake Roberts just sits back and watches the show. Bundy takes on both of the Bushwhackers without worry and let’s Jake come in to finish it off with a couple of DDTs! Jake is very vocal into the camera that this is the beginning of the end for Dusty Rhodes! Big Bossman vs One Man Gang w/ Slick Bossman gets his final measure of revenge on the former partner and manager. Bossman is able to get the upperhand on Gang early on and keep it going… but then we’ve got Slick getting involved… he ends up getting his hands on Bossman which leads to the big splash in the corner. Then we see Zeus come out and it all goes downhill from there. Zeus comes in and beats the hell out of Bossman. We see the neck wrencher and Zeus looks unstoppable. Davey, Owen, and Neidhart come running down and then get chairs to back Zeus off. Marty Jannetty vs King Haku w/ Bobby Heenan A good fast paced contest with two all pros here. King Haku is definitely in his element with Heenan by his side and the crowd on his head. Jannetty sells everything so well. The finish sees Jannetty come off the top rope for a crossbody but Haku superkicks him right in the jaw and the crowd even gasps! 1…2….3 and all hail the King! Randy Savage vs Mean Mark w/ Paul E What a main event… Mean Mark is made to look like a million dollars here as Savage is on top of his game. We get all the big spots with Savage and Mark taking the fight outside the ring… into the guardrail… into the fans even. Jesse and Gorilla put this through the roof before we get the action back in the ring. Mark shows some offense and gets the upperhand before Savage fights his way back… get control and then we see him get to work. The big double ax handle smash once…. Twice… and then a third time and Mean Mark goes flying out of the ring. Savage holds as Mark hit the ringsteps on his way out and Earl Hebner gets to 10 and the Macho Man with the countout victory! The crowd pops and then Savage goes up top again and ANOTHER DOUBLE AX HANDLE SMASH and Mean Mark is down outside the ring. Here comes the rest of the Dangerous Alliance… wait a second… Funk… Funk from around the corner of the ring with the BRANDING IRON right to the skull of the Macho Man! Tito an Demolition make haste to the ring but Savage is busted wide open and he’s in a bad way. The Dangerous Alliance got the upperhand here tonight… but this war is far, far from over!
