All-Star adds Roger Kirby with its open spot

Allstar sends Konga and Tom Zenk to Worldclass for Manny Fernandez

It is an awesome card when Lawler vs JYD for the World Title is the Semi Main Event but Brody and Hansen in a cage can can cause that! I like the RAT Patrol as the tag champions in a Southeastern Promotion. It just feels right! Awesome show

Great continuity from your TV show to your event in the Farm Center. To me, this is a really fun roster that keeps bringing the new angles. Lord Humongous is here and is causing havoc. I love Flair as the #1 babyface and it is working wonderfully and tonight's show had me hooked from his interview! Great show. Baby Doll is a great person to stop Brenda Britton and it will give the guys in the audience something to watch before the match! JYD/HANSEN/BRODY/GRAHAM all in the same ring at the same time... I need tickets please

Fun card here. I agree with Edger in the Lafleur/Rougeau is a good paring. I also like the teaming of Doll and Simpson and it will be interesting to see if they can get over on the Champs!

Very realistic from top to bottom beginning with the Atl. Braves game. Really looking forward to Hacksaw vs Hacksaw. Andersons vs Armstrongs is an all time classic Wildfire was my favorite as a little kid and you did him justice... I just hope he doesn't end up on the wrong side of both Hart and Dibiase

Kabuki with a nice night here. That is the good thing about these House shows... you can really find ways to bring some heat on someone with multi jobs on the same show. I was unsure if the Mosca's were babyfaces as Sr. won by interference by Jr, I think Dellaserra might need more than a chair to beat Dusty in Florida... he is so over in that state! Enjoying these House shows!

Current List: Mr. Wrestling II Konga the Barbarian Tom Zenk AFTER JULY 5 Sheik Adnan Al Kassie Ken Patera Jerry Blackwell Marty Jannety Lamce VonErich

Wow... I would have loved seeing any of these house shows! It is going to be very interesting to see who comes out on top here as I just love your roster.

Nice job of bringing along your rookies in the openers... Hall and Yoko will quickly move up the ladder. I find your mixing in of heel vs heel matches fun with your TV title.... Mike Miller vs Sheik! Fantastics still trying to get over on the Long Riders is one of those feuds that you can get a couple of months out of!

Fun show here. I used to love when wrestling shows would show us a few highlights from their big shows like you did in the opening here. -I thought it was cool how officials rushed out to stop the brawl between Tully and Dream Machine. I have a bad habit of always going for the brawl. - Nice use of George Wells... he is really underrated. I saw him go toe to toe with Butch Reed in Mid-South and it looked like he deserved more of a push then he got. -Larry the Axe with Billy Robinson just seems so perfect! - I love the timing of you introducing your next big show. 3 weeks gives you a nice time to hype up all your feuds! -Ayala keeps pushing the top stars here in TNT... he might just get over one day! -Ratymus continues to be one of my favorite heels in the game!

And the empire that is the House of Humperdink continues to role!

AWA ALL-STAR WRESTLING: March 17, 1984: WGN TV: Salt Palace From coast to coast, continent to continent and border to border, we welcome you to AWA All-Star Wrestling coming to you from the Salt Palace in Salt Lake City, Utah. I am Rod Trongard and we are just 7 days away from the ESPN Supershow in the Saddledome in Calgary which could change All-Star Wrestling as we know it with three big title matches. Tonight, we will set the tone for one of the biggest card in AWA history. Let’s get to the ring. STORYLINE #1: AWA NORTH AMERICAN TITLE Non-Title Match: Bret Hart defeats Ciclon Negro with the Northern Lights Cloverleaf While Ciclon used a few questionable moves to take the momentum for a moment or two, Hart was in complete control. The interesting thing here was that Randy Savage and Bobby Heenan came out to opposite sides of the ring during the match. While it un-nerved Bret a bit, he was able to keep his focus and gain the victory. After the match, Savage and Heenan disappeared but there act here made Trongard again wonder if Savage had joined Heenan’s family as Bobby did say he had a new member who was going to turn Vern Gagne and Stu Hart’s world upside down. STORYLINE #2: THE YOUNG LIONS TOURNAMENT While we get a reminder that Eddie Gilbert and Keiji Mutoh will start the tournament on the ESPN show, we do see some action between other’s involved in the tournament. Match: Kendall Windham defeats Ricky Vaugh with the Bull Dog Match: Nicolai Volkoff & Nikita Koloff defeat Bart Batten & Marty Jannetty as Nikita hits Batten with the Russian Sickle. Trongard does his best to convince himself that Nikita is not the clear favorite to win this tournament, but he is not doing a great job. Match: Eddie Gilbert with Precious & Jimmy Garvin defeats Bubba Douglas with the Hot Shot. Precious seemed really excited after the match and gave Gilbert a big kiss. Jimmy Garvin seemed to look rather quizzically at this. STORYLINE #3: AWA WORLD TITLE We see a quick VTR of Hogan surviving against Ox Baker last week in the St. Paul Civic Center as Baker caught him with another vicious heart punch but somehow Hogan survived and rallied to hit the Ax Hammer followed by the leg drop! At the interview area with Okerlund, Hogan is fuming that Lawler sent Ox Baker after him and Okerlund is in agreement and warns Hulk to be careful as he reminds Hulkster that Lawler said that he has a lot of friends who can keep Hogan from even making it to the Saddledome! WHAM… It’s Ox Baker again but this time he has help and it is none other than Bob Sweetan! This beating is even worse than last week as Hogan is hit with another Heart Punch by Baker and that is followed up by a piledriver by Bob Sweetan. Baker and Sweetan leave smiling as Okerlund is screaming for someone to get a doctor. Hogan is stretchered out as we see the camera catching some of the fans with actual tears in their eyes at the horrific scene. Okerlund is heard screaming that enough is enough and Lawler needs to be a real man and meet Hogan in the ring and to stop sending his goons after Hogan. By the end of the show, we get word that Hogan has vowed to be in the Saddledome next week for his title match against Lawler but Rod Trongard isn’t sure if that is possible. STORYLINE #4: AWA WORLD TAG TEAMT TITLE Both the Road Warriors and Patera and Blackwell win squash matches and give big screaming interviews about what they are going to do to each other next Saturday in Calgary. All Trongard can predict about this one is that it is going to be a War! STORYLINE #5: The Harts vs The Commonwealth Connection This one seems to be getting real personal. In recent weeks, we have seen Leduc, Dynamite Kid and Davey Boy Smith call Stu Hart a sell out for giving up on Stampede Wrestling and join the AWA. They have also made no bones about their believe that the Hart boys and Jim Neidhart don’t stand a chance in their match on ESPN against the Commonwealth. It is obvious from tonight that the Hart’s have taken serious offense to those comments as we get a frantic Trongard rushing with some camera man to the parking lot where we see a brawl between the two teams. This goes on for some time and all 6 men take some damage before a nearly two dozen jobbers and AWA officials come out to come it down. STORYLINE #6: The Mongolian Stomper vs Bad News Allen Nothing but a few interviews to hype up the Loser Leave Town-Steel Cage Match set for the ESPN show between these two dangerous men. OTHER MATCHES MATCH: Sweet Brown Sugar defeats Larry Cheatem with a Missile Dropkick as he made a successful All-Star debut. MATCH: Rick Rude with Bobby Heenan defeats Jules Strongbow with the piledriver. After the match, Heenan says his man deserves a title shot and after Rude beats Rick Martel in Calgary, he better get one. When asked by Gene Oakerlund if Randy Savage had joined his family Heenan said that all of the Humanoids would just have to wait and find out. MATCH: Greg Gagne & Brad Rheingans defeated Verlon Biggs & Jim Jameson with Rheingans hit the belly to back suplex

Wow... I enjoyed every minute of that show. I am truly jealous as my love is World Class and Mid-South and you have them both now. Between the Russians, Dr.D, Magnum TA, the VOnErichs and all the rest, you are have the makings of a great promotion. I found your format very easy to read and fun to follow. Looking forward to the next show.

Nice set of house shows here. JYD is doing a nice job as the lead babyface!

Great show! Love your roster as we have some really big names in search of the Atlantic HW title! Humperdink with Sullivan vs Rhodes is classic. Steamboat.... Orndorff... Valentine.... So many options here. Great interview segments which really made the show for me.

Great card in Birmingham... You are getting so much out of your Alabama Title Angle which is perfect! I wonder what Mr. Olympia has in store for Rogers You have Southern Wrestling down pat with all your feuds and run-ins! So much fun to read

Now I got it... I hope. Sorry again

I love your roster as there are so many choices. I like Dusty and Wahoo teaming and they could be huge! Can Valentine stay on this role! If so, he is going to on top of the AWA!

Sorry... Got it

FLAIR.... BRODY... HANSEN! Now that is a triangle of talent! You are going to have a lot of fun with them. And the Alabama title keeps it revolving door going which is great for all the fans to follow.

Now that was Georgia Wrastlin at its best! -Armstrongs vs Andersons... two of the biggest wrestling names in the South. This is going to be fun! -Wildfire leaves one home in Memphis and returns to his other in Georgia. He is golden where ever he goes. Wildfire with Dibiase... so many possibilities. - 2 Hacksaws!!!!... something must give and I can't wait to find out what -Irwins vs Fantastics... opposites for sure but will be an awesome watch -Lanny getting a little time here which is cool. I always wonder what he would have been like on his own.

All-Star adds Bubba Douglas

I really enjoy how you are able to use the TV show to set up the upcoming cards. Very realistic. -Hansen and Brody both after Flair! Woooo, Natch better watch his back! -JYD is huge is Southeast and could be a star for as long as he wants to be.

Nice start to ACCW! Some great names to watch here and Orndorff vs Valentine is the perfect place to get started! Thanks for jumping in
