Nice job with all the match details. This is something I really struggle with. I really think you have a done a great job building a roster that works for you and gives you a lot of choices. You have big names who might be on the second half of their careers and up and coming youngsters. Whatever way you go, you can make $$$! Neidhart and Go seems like an awesome matchup!

Windham vs Brett Hart!!! Could watch this everyday especially if Barry was into it.

Always enjoy these title nights. I played a little game with myself to see if I could predict who was coming out with the titles... I called the Olympians title change but love the controversial ending where you can continue the angle if you wish. I thought Adias would still be the tv champ but did not expect him knocked out by the sleeper as the time limit expired. Love these matches. I did have the El Canek-Larr Z match wrong. I know that you enjoy writing for both of these guys and just picked the wrong one. Another great match. I did hove Lethal Larry over Keirn. I just thought Akbar would add too much to the match. I did have Orndorff keeping his title but I thought it might be a DDQ as I know you want to keep them both strong. Love the Missing Link addition. Sawyer and Link would be a wild feud. Nice use of your roster here. I did have a feeling the Fantastics were taking the titles from the Guerreroes but knew it would be a wild ending where anything could happen. Really enjoyed this match. I wish the Guerreroes were on more when I was a kid. What I saw of them was great. Jumbo over Iceman was the one I was surest about. I love Iceman but he is better as a major title chaser then the champ. His charisma allows him to get over without the title. It is one of the reasons I think Jake Roberts didn't have many title runs. Also, I am sure you are building to something bigger for Jumbo. Oh, by the way, loved the Hogan interview. I could just hear each of those words coming from his mouth. Didn't mean to by my booking hat in the AWA, just thought it would be fun to try and pick the winners.

Fall Out From Clash of Champions: St. Valentine’s Day massacre "The Million Dollar Man" Ted Dibiase- While his time as WCW World Tag Team Champion with his partner “Dr. Death” Steve Williams might have come to an end, “The Million Dollar Man” Ted Dibiase might just be the next WCW World Champion. His recent pin of world champion “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair in a tag team match at Clash of Champions has propelled him to a world title shot at Miami Mayhem. Ric Flair was in the middle of an interview on TV where he was talking about how Dibiase had cheated at Clash of Champions and that there was no way Dibiase could ever beat him in a real match when Jerry Jarrett came out and announced that Dibiase would face Flair at the next pay-per-view. Flair threw a big hissy fit claiming that Dibiase didn’t deserve the shot as he has not been involved in any singles matches in over a year. Jarrett didn’t even seem to hear Flair and hyped up the big upcoming match. Later in the show, a real calm, confident and direct Ted Dibiase let everyone know that his first pin of Ric Flair was not a fluke and that in less than a month, he would be the new WCW World Champion. Colonel Debeers- As a result of his racist and Anti-American verbal assaults since arriving in WCW, he has become enemy #1 to the WCW wrestling fans. The anger toward Debeers only got worse after Clash of Champions after Debeers refused to wrestle until WCW replaced Teddy Long as the scheduled referee due to his skin color. On this week’s show, Jerry Jarrett actually apologized to the fans for sending in Pee Wee Anderson as a replacement referee for Teddy Long. He said that he did not want to make the fans at the arena and those at home miss out of the action of Debeers vs Sam Houston so he made the decision to switch referees. Jarrett admitted that this was the wrong choice and that Debeers does not control WCW and that includes who he wrestles and who the official is. When Debeers came out and conftonted Jarrett and said that he will not wrestle any black man, a man on steroids or someone he considers beneath him and that goes for the referee as well. Jarrett simply replied that he was in charge and that Debeers will wrestle who he says, when he says and with whatever referee he says or he can look for another job. When Debeers began to complain, Jarrett walked away! Who came to the aid of Jeff Jarrett? Fans at home were smitten by a fit and attractive black lady during the opening pictures of the crowd at Clash of Champions. Low and behold, this lady came out of the stands to aid Jeff Jarrett who was being double teamed by Rip Rogers and Terri Powers. She came in like a house a fire with a kick to The Hustler and then a huge right hand to Terri. While the crowd loved what they saw, they had no idea who this person was. This week on TV, we find out that she is Miss. Tennessee and that her and Jeff have known each other for some time. Jeff had contacted her when Rip Rogers put him in a No-Win situation when he sent in Terri to fight him. Jeff knew that if he fought back, it would look bad and if he got beat up by a girl when he didn’t fight back, it would look bad. So, he called the only women he knew that could give Terri a fight while he dealt with Rip Rogers. This two seem ready for anything as this one has captured the attention of all of WCW. Is there a relationship between Don Muraco and Jake “The Snake” Roberts? After watching Jake “The Snake” Roberts sit there while Don Muraco attacked Roddy Piper on Piper’s Pit at Clash of Champions, all the WCW fans Jake was talking about Roddy Piper making a mistake that he couldn’t handle when he said that if you play with snakes all the time, eventually you will get bite. This situation became no clearer this week on TV as Snake simply explained his actions at Clash of Champions by saying that every decision that a snake makes has been well thought out and planned. With both Snake, Piper and Muraco spending a lot of time together up north, there could be some underlying issue that we at WCW do not know about. The only thing that we know for sure is that Muraco felt comfortable enough to come on to Piper’s Pit and attack Hot Rod. When Muraco was questioned about his reason for the attack, he reminded everyone that it was Roddy Piper who had hit him with a low blow back at Wrestlecade. What is Jerry Lawler doing in WCW? Jerry Lawler’s well-timed arrival in WCW saved Brad Armstrong from a 3-1 attack from Eddie Gilbert, John Tatum and Missy Hyatt. While it was a good thing for Lawler to be in Nashville, why exactly was he there. Most believe that Jerry Jarrett knows the importance of Jerry Lawler to WCW’s plan to expand into Tennessee and offered him a rather large contract. Besides wanting to bring Tennessee fans to WCW now that Memphis Wrestling has gone out of business, Lawler might also be in WCW to help put Eddie Gilbert’s foot in his own mouth. Hot Stuff recently told Jarrett that there was nobody from Memphis who belonged in WCW and that he should stop wasting everyone’s time by putting former Memphis wrestlers in the ring against him for the WCW World Television Title. Whatever the reason, Lawler is a welcomed addition with WCW returning to the Mid-South Coliseum in April. WCW World Tag Team Title Situation! Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard are the new WCW World Tag Team Champions but the big question is who will there first title defense be against. We already know that the title will be on the line on February 27th at Miami Mayhem. This was an unplanned title change and was forced when Dr. Death recently injured his leg at Wrestlecade. With so little time to get this set up, Jerry Jarrett added a 4 Corner Match on TV with the winner getting the title shot next week. The four teams involved were the Grapplers, The Rock n Roll Express, Ron Simmons & Hacksaw Butch Reed and Dick Murdoch and Terry Funk. This was not an elimination match and anyone could pin anyone. After everyone had a little time to shine, we see Terry Funk come off the top rope with an elbow drop to Grappler #1 who had just nailed Robert Gibson with a loaded mask headbutt. As Gibson staggered into the ropes Funk made the tag which the Grappler did not see. The Grappler was covering Gibson when he was nailed by Funk. Funk simple rolled the Grappler over and got the win. Arn and Tully better be ready for anything as Murdoch and Funk are unpredictable and unquestionably two of the toughest every to step foot in the ring. So What is Going on at the Power Plant: Last thing we heard was that Mr. Wrestling II and Scott Norton were working on perfecting his gimmick as the Flash. While that continues to progress, Wrestling II has also been spending a lot of time with Booker T Huffman and Lash Huffman. These two brothers are large black men with a lot of size and charisma. Mr. Wrestling II is trying to teach these two the ins-and-outs of the business from both the babyface perspective and heel perspective as you never know what the Bog Company wants. With that being said, they are spending time as a babyface team known as the Ebony Express as well as a heel team known as Jive Bros. Mr. Wrestling II has also suggested to Lash that he change his name which he has did to Stevie Ray; a combination of Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles. Mr. Wrestling II believes that WCW might break these brothers up into singles wrestlers and might only need one of them so he has also given them singles angles to work on. Booker T is GI Bro and Stevie Ray is the Masked Heel. Only time will tell if these two make it and what side of the wrestling tracks will they be on.

The AWA Presents - World Class Championship Wrestling
kevinmcfl replied to Lee Casebolt's topic in Armchair Booking
Really looking forward to this. Cool idea. -
Great event with a lot of matches that I would have loved to see. It seems like the Studd Stable might be moving past the Horsemen as the top alliance in the NWA. Great night for Ron Fuller!
-
Looking forward to seeing what Bad News and Backlund can do in your realm!
-
Great idea. Love it
-
Looking forward to the next Title Night! "Big Jim" and the Bruisers is a fun pairing. I guess it is because of when I was most into wrestling but Idol vs Armstrong really has my interest. You had some great matches on TV this week which I guess became much more normal by the late 80's. Great booking. Sgt. vs Nikita is really a really cool matchup especially with Sgt as the heel and Nikita as the babyface.
-
Sorry for falling so far behind. Enjoyed catching up with PCW. I love the Ricky Steamboat-Windham feud. While your roster is stacked, at this point in their careers, these two plus Hennig and Hart might be just be at the top of the list. Speaking of Hart, love what you are doing with Austin. What better mentor than Bret Hart! Finding all the chaos with the Jackal really interesting.
-
Love the build to Wrestlemania. You have such an awesome roster but somehow you know just where to put everyone and how to set up all your matches. Great booking!
-
Very interesting. Any idea who it was for?
-
Nice job hyping up SuperBrawl 2. The match with Garvin, the Road Warriors and The Horsemen would be a main event anywhere in the country. I just watched Harley Race vs Tommy Rich from the Omni. Man, he was great.
-
Sorry for falling a bit behind here but that was some event. You put in so much work and it really paid off. You keep teaching me more and more about UWF Newborn and I love what I see. I have seen a few of those British Catch Rules matches and found them very interesting. They just seemed to legitimize the sport. I thought the Lou Thesz promo was awesome!! The way you brought history into your tournament makes it soo interesting. WOW! That tag match between the Americans and Russians was awesome. I have always seen it from the American point of view were the Americans had the fix but the way you ended it was great!!

NASHVILLE AUDITORIUM FEBRUARY 15, 1989 The night starts with the camera flying over the excited crowd and it lingers over many of the children in the crowd, some of the couples who have come to celebrate St. Valentine’s Day Massacre, some of the typical Nashville type men who are ready to see some huge haymakers thrown and some rather hot country females including one rather fit , attractive black women in a cowboy hat. Both Tony Schiavone and Jim Ross hype up all the great action we are about to see and really focus on the fact that WCW has this great event, live for everyone at home here on the Superstation WTBS. Colonel Debeers vs Sam Houston The Backstory: Ever sense his arrival in WCW, Debeers brand of racism and anti-American views has rubbed everyone the wrong way. Time and time again, he has refused to get in the ring with black wrestlers who he believes are beneath him. His views have brought the ire of Tony Atlas, Hacksaw Butch Reed and Ron Simmons. When Jerry Jarrett recently tried to force him into a match with Atlas, Debeers refused for two reasons. First, he went into a racist tirade which Jarrett threatened to fire Debeers. Next, Debeers started ranting about the rampant use of steroids that are obviously running through the veins of Atlas, Reed and Simmons. He pointed out that the success of people like that can only be explained through cheating and he would NEVER get into the ring where he knew the deck was stacked against him. In the end, it seems that Debeers somehow managed to handpick his opponent tonight… a white, gangly young buck …. Sam Houston. The Match: The problems started before the bell even sounded as Colonel Debeers refused to wrestle Sam Houston because the assigned referee was Teddy Long, a black man. Debeers grabbed the house microphone while pointing at Teddy Long Col Debeers: That is a black man. I will not have a black man referee my matches. These people take orders from men like me. I do not take orders from men like that. Debeers gets right in the face of Long and is pointing at him to leave the ring. Give Teddy Long some credit as he just stands there. He doesn’t let Debeers get to him and he also doesn’t leave. The crowd is screaming at Debeers and the announcers seem to think that we are at an impasse at that the match will not take place. Suddenly, ref Pee Wee Anderson comes to the ring and gets his fair share of boos as the crowd senses that Debeers will get his way. Anderson goes to Teddy Long and whispers something to him. You can tell Long is not happy as he throws his hands up in the air and then exits the ring. Before Pee Wee can even call for the bell, Debeers has attacked Sam Houston with his military cane. We get a few minutes of complete rule-breaking before Debeers connects with the reverse piledriver for the win. Debris follows Debeers on his walk back to the locker room. If heat is what WCW wants for Debeers, he has succeeded 10-fold! Lord Humongous with Oliver Humperdink vs Jim Powers The backstory: Week after week we have seen young Jim Powers come out on TV and get a gritty win over some jobber who used questionable tactics. We have also seen Lord Humongous break in half anyone put in front of him and then hear from Oliver Humperdink how Humongous can’t be stopped at Miami Mayhem where he will win the timed-entry battle royal to earn a WCW World Title shot and become the next champion. The Match: So, one of these two streaks will come to an end tonight at Clash of Champions and I bet you can guess which one. Lord Humongous destroys Jim Powers in under 2 minutes and leaves him a crumpled mess after a devastating powerbomb. Rip Rogers with Terri Powers vs Jeff Jarrett The Backstory: Rip Rogers has been all over Jeff Jarrett since his arrival in WCW; claiming that the only reason he is here is because of his Daddy. Jarrett has been Sucker Punched by Rogers and even had to deal with Rogers using his valet, Terri Powers to do his work as he sent her in to fight Jarrett. Being the gentlemen that he is, Jarrett refused to hit a women but he did have to endure a few shots from this rather muscular lady. Many believe that Jeff will be in for a tough one tonight as somehow this match will turn into a 2-1 attack. The Match: As you would expect, Rip tried to get the best of Jarrett by attacking before the bell, but Jarrett grew up in a wrestling family and knew what to expect from the likes of Rip Rogers. Jarrett blocked the attack and went on to throw a few punches of his own before taking the match to the technical side with a few arm bars and head scissors. The next segment saw the dirty tactics of both “The Hustler” and his valet as Rogers gained the momentum. It looked like it was over as Rogers was going for the “Ripperplex” but somehow Jarrett fought his way off the top rope. We get a few minutes of back and forth before Jarrett is back on top. Terri Powers is beside herself and hits the ring. WHAM… Terri clobbers Jarrett with a right hand… and this is not some little old lady throwing blows. The ref calls for the bell and the DQ but Rip and Terri keep on the attack! There is a murmur from the crowd! WHAM… that fit looking black lady from the opening is in the ring and lets just say she is every bit as strong as Terri Powers. Her first blow is to Rogers. Terri looks confused but then winds up with her own sledgehammer. It is blocked! A kick to the gut by the newcomer and Terri doubles over. WHAM… a snap suplex that was like a rocket! Jarrett is up and all over Rogers. The black women is all over Terri! Eventually, Rip and Terri are able to escape to safety, but you can tell they are both confused and concerned. Who was that lady and why did she help Jeff Jarrett? The Rock n Roll Express vs The Long Riders (Bass & Bart) The Backstory: Robert Gibson had been inactive since Thanksgiving due to an eye injury suffered at the hands of the Latin Connection. He recently returned to help his long term partner who was being attacked by Hot Stuff Inc. (Eddie Gilbert, John Tatum and Missy Hyatt) While the Rock n Roll Express still has unsettled business with Hot Stuff Inc., The Long Riders, Black Bart and Ron Bass recently returned to WCW and interrupted an interview with The Rock n Roll Express where Jim Ross was hyping up the Express being back together and he was sure they would be in the title picture very soon. Bass and Bart seemed to think that they were the team that should be getting a title shot and not these Daggummitt sissy boys and their bandanas. So here we are… The Match: As you would expect! A few momentum changes… some dirty tactics by the heels, a great job of playing the Face in Peril by Morton, A missed Double Leg Drop off the top rope by Black Bart, a hot tag to Gibson, we go Bonzo Gonza for a few minutes with all four in the ring, a Double Drop kick by the Express. 1…2…3! The Rock n Roll Express are back in a Big Way! SPECIAL SEGMENT: PIPER’S PIT WITH JAKE “THE SNAKE” ROBERTS The Scene: The camera pans in on the typical Piper’s Pit set where we see Roddy Piper in his traditional kilt, black belt and white Superman T-Shirt. His guest, Jake “The Snake” Roberts is seated in a chair wearing jeans and a orange T-shirt and he has brought a special guest of his own… Damien! Roddy Piper: Hello everybody… Joining me tonight is my very special guest…. Jake “The Snake” Roberts.” Jake… let me be the first to welcome you and your friend here to WCW. For those of you who don’t know, Jake and I spent some time together up North and let me be the first to tell you, Jake means business! Hey Jake, as you know, I’m from Scottland and don’t know much about snakes. What kind of tricks does this guy do for you? Jake Roberts: Damien doesn’t do tricks. That’s why I like him. Ya see, Damien and I are a lot alike. What you see is what you get. I don’t do things that others want me to do. I got my own mind. But Roddy, sooner or later you got to expect one thing. When you play with snakes and keep playing with them day after day, at some time you’re going to get bit. Roddy Piper: I think I’m starting to like this Damien guy myself. I mean Old Hot Rod has always beaten to his own drum if you know what I mean. So what does Damien eat? Jake Roberts: Anything I give him… small animals… rabbits, frogs, mice. Roddy Piper: Well I must admit that Hot Rod has never been afraid of anything in his life but seating here, I can’t help but wonder what would happen if you got on the wrong side of the Snake. Jake Roberts: Well ya know, people can make mistakes in their lifetime but you always have to be able to afford to make that mistake. But let me give this warning to anyone who thinks of crossing the Snake. I am the one mistake you can’t afford to make. WHAM… It is a pineapple that has exploded on the head of Roddy Piper as he is attacked by Don Muraco. Piper is a bloody mess as Jake and Damien just sit there. Muraco is like a man possessed. Eventually Tony Schiavone and Jim Ross take us to break in order to restore order. WCW WORLD TELEVISION TITLE MATCH “Hot Stuff” Eddie Gilbert © with Missy Hyatt vs Brad Armstrong The Backstory: Eddie Gilbert has been surviving as TV champion sense he told Jerry Jarrett that he wasn’t ready for the WCW and Big Time Wrestling and that he better not think any of his lowly Memphis Wrestlers could handle the spotlight of WCW and the TV title. This led to a few matches with former Memphis star Ricky Morton and now we have another Memphis wrestler, Brad Armstrong attempting to take the television title. While Gilbert may have put his foot in his mouth, “Hollywood” John Tatum has returned to Hot Stuff Inc., and along with interference from Missy Hyatt, Eddie has been able to walk out each night as the TV champion. The Match: The pattern continuous! Brad looks to be on the verge of winning until Missy signals to the back for John Tatum. Tatum could care less about the DQ as he goes right in to save Eddie’s title. Some may say this is just to stay on the good side of Missy and that he could care less about Eddie Gilbert but that is a story for another day. As Tatum, Gilbert and Hyatt are putting the boots to Brad Armstrong, there is an explosion from the crowd like no other! Jim Ross: Could it be!!!! Yes!!! Here in Tennessee… It’s Jerry “The King” Lawler and he is all over both Eddie Gilbert and John Tatum! He hurls Tatum to the floor. Drops the strap on his singlet while backing Gilbert to the corner. He starts throwing big right hand after big right hand. The crowd is getting each blow and Lawler finally stops at 12. Missy Hyatt has exited the ring and is looking on in horror! Lawler turns to the crowd and gives the piledriver signal and they go wild. Lucky for Gilbert, Missy gathered herself and dragged her man to safety before Lawler could catch him. Hot Stuff Inc leaves while the crowd celebrated the return of The King!! WCW UNITED STATES TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH The Freebirds (Michael Hayes & Jimmy Garvin) © vs The Grapplers The Backstory: Not much here. The WCW Tag Team Division is stacked right now. The Grapplers have been on a roll and have been calling out the Freebirds after each win saying they deserve the titles. Hayes and Garvin are not people who back down from a challenge, so here we are. The Match: Not too much to say here. The fan favorites are as dirty as the heels in the match so those guys caught on camera at the opening who looked like your typical Nashville man just wanting to see some haymakers thrown, got exactly what they wanted in this match. In the end, we get a Double Count-Out as the match spilled out into the floor and never returned to the ring. MAIN EVENT The Horsemen (Flair, Arn, & Tully) with Women vs Lex Luger, Sting, and Ted Dibiase The Backstory: First of all, the big new here is that Tully Blanchard and Arn Anderson are the new WCW World Tag Team Champions. This occurred two weeks ago right on the regular Saturday WTBS show. The champs, Ted Dibiase and Dr. Death had not wrestled since Wrestlecade on December 26th due to an injury suffered by Dr. Death. With about 15 minutes left in the two-hour show, the Horsemen (Arn, Tully, Flair and Women) interrupted an interview with the champs and they demanded that Jerry Jarrett come out. When he did, they pointed out that Dibiase and Dr. Death had not wrestled in 30 days and by contract, if they did not wrestle that night, they would have to have their titles vacated. Jarrett, visible disappointed, had no choice but to agree. Tully and Arn seemed to have a lightbulb go off and said that if Dibiase and Dr. Death wrestled them right now, they could have a snowball’s chance in Hell of saving their titles. Dr. Death admitted that he was in no shape to wrestle but Dibiase agreed to the match. This basically became a 2-1 as Dr. Death was a non-factor. With about 30 seconds to go in the show, Arn and Tully connected with a double team of an Arn spinebuster and a Tully slingshot suplex to win the titles! The following week, Ric Flair was having a grand time during his promo about how Dibiase was a fool to accept the match. Dibiase came out and admitted that Arn and Tully got the best of him last week but he knew that if he ever stepped foot in the ring with Ric Flair, he knew he would leave as the champion. We all know the beef between Sting and Luger with the Horsemen. Throw in the situation with Dibiase and Flair and here we are. The Match: Let’s keep this simple. We all know that everyone is going to get some shine during the match and that the ending would be crazy. So let’s just say this… Dibiase was right. He could beat Ric Flair and he did. With Sting and Luger battling Arn and Tully on the outside, it was Dibiase with a clean win over the WCW World Champion with a superplex!

WCW adds Black Bart and Ron Bass

This is so helpful. Thanks a lot!!!
-
Thanks for all the info on the Montreal wrestling scene. So interesting. Great card on Feb 4th. Really love Neidhart and Saito as a team.
-
Awesome main event with Road Warrior and Ole. This seemed like Hawk should come out on top but never count out James J Dillion and his men. Super Brawl is shaping up nicely. I can't wait for Garvin and Ace. This one could go either way and this would really push Orton up the historic rankings of Dawn of War! JYD vs Fuller... such a classic Southern Wrestling bout. One of my favorite all-time match ups here. Manny vs Slater.... BRAWL!!
-
Really liking all the new stars and angles in the AWA. To me, Gerry Morrow and that accent add so much to the show. He seems to be an awesome leader as sometimes the babyfaces get what they want (Iceman) and others it is the heels that get what they want (Larry Z) AWA with Hogan... can't wait. I never liked Hogan in the WWF in real life as it just seemed so predictable. Can't wait for this wild ride. Also, really looking forward to title night!
-
Sorry for getting so far behind. First: Prime Time on 1/15 Great segment with Brutus throwing hair at Taylor during his match. Looking forward to the Dream coming in. I wonder how the Wildfire promo would have went over in the North. I loved it in Georgia!! Hacksaw with a clean win over Valentine on TV... Hacksaw is ready for HUGE things!! The Royal Rumble was AWESOME! Warrior could be a huge money maker for you. Also thought the prelim matches and segments were just as good as the main event. WWF is rolling.

Great events in both Montreal and Toronto. I think you did a great job of really setting up the hierarchy of your roster with both your match order and the outcomes. Glad to see you giving the women some major run. The promos for the Triple Threat Match and and the actually match were great. You really showcased what they could do in the ring and how exciting women's wrestling can be. I think your use of Bravo is awesome. He has all the talent in the world to be Big Time in Canada. Nice to see Mike Graham in a main event. I know he get a little extra push in Florida due to his father but I always thought he was a pretty good worker. Very curious who Goldie Rogers will bring in as his new partner. Just a question for you as you are much more familiar with this area then I am. I was in Montreal a few times around this time period, maybe a little later like 1991 and get a real negative feel toward English speaking people. Would Maple Leaf need to have two different broadcasts to get the same people over in the different provinces. I could really see Montreal fans clashing on who they cheered for based on language. So Bravo is an easy babyface in Montreal but would Toronto always be on the same page? Just a question. Loved the shows. Sorry for falling so far behind.
-
Sorry for getting so far behind. Really enjoyed the Dirt Sheet format for the build up to Roanoke. I thought Harley Race's comments about the Road Warriors stealing their gimmick from a "B" movie was hilarious. Great show in Roanoke. I love when house shows have such huge implications going forward. From this event we get a Slater vs Manny feud and tow great title matches down the road. Great job! You've done a great job getting 1989 off and flying!
-
Really hope you are doing better. Missed you around here! I love what you did and hope to hear from you again. Thanks for all your time and energy.
-
I have always enjoyed you next few shows after one of your big shows. So many twists and turns and new wrestlers being introduced! Sweet Dreams was a bit of a surprise but I love it. I always saw SBS on Georgia Championship Wrestling or Florida and I remember him as a mid-card babyface. This is going to be fun. Loved the contract sale of Gary Young... very cool booking! I also enjoy when babyfaces use heel tactics. Nice job by Armstrong on Idol! I think this simple move makes this feud white hot. Great creativity. Sivi Afi and Lightfoot....
