This project is so fun and unpredictable. The Canadian Heavyweight title being defended in Puerto Rico is awesome
-
This tournament has a lot of big names with so many possibilities. Looking forward to the next round

Great match. This seemed like a major event as the fans were dressed like they were going to a wedding. Was this normal in Japan at the time? Also the crowd seemed to be on the edge of their seats the entire time. Did the fans at that time belief that wrestling was real like some in the U.S., especially in the Southern territories. Each team also came out with an entourage. Was that common? As for the match... very intense with great selling and bumping. These four meant business as we saw in the beginning with the spike piledriver from the top rope with no pin attempt after it. The only negative for me is that I don't speak Japanese. Would love a translation of what Yatsu said on the mic at the end

Even though I am not very knowledgeable on Japanese wrestling your mix of talent from all over makes this fun for me. I really need to research some of your regulars so I could have more of a rooting interest in your matches. I have said it before, your graphics are awesome
-
Another great series of shows here. Such a blend of youngsters and vets makes this very interesting to follow as you never know what is coming next. I am surprised that Verne makes Greg take so many falls but he is such a good sport I think he would do what is right for the company.

got it

UWF would like Mil Mascaras for April 11,14,18,20, 25 and 27 Hansen & Brody for April 14th
-
If I made a mistake, I am sorry. Just let me know
-
I find myself in the same boat as Gene but even worse. I have never seen a match from Japan but enjoy your insights. Your knowledge about how the sport really works is what makes it a fun read for me.

World Class Championship Wrestling: March 1986
kevinmcfl replied to GeneJackson95's topic in Promotions
Summary form or not, I love WCCW! I think King vs Studd would be an awesome brawl! So many dreams in this show but Embry is always the best and his came through for him and Garvin. -
Sounds good. I was using them as traditional jobbers but that is perfect
-
Great shows all over North Carolina. The fans would leave happy here with a lot of their favorites getting nice wins. I really believe that if Polynesian Power spent time in the US as had the Samoan Connection (Farmer Boy Ipo and Samoan LeRoy Brown) that they both could have been as big as the Wild Samoans. A lot of patriotic matches going on here which is exactly what Southern Wrestling should be about. We test the waters of racism and prejudice and see how far the fans will allow us to push. Nothing sells like Duggan vs The Iron Sheik! As I stated last time, Cooley getting a push here is really cool. I wish we had one or two new writers who loved a small promotion as guys like Cooley could gain a few titles.
-
Just an idea guys I got from reading Lowblow's free agent post Along with jobber pacts that we have where the guy is required to get beat each week, how about allowing us each one JTTS pack where the guys here can beat the guys in a regular jobber pack and also to pull the rare upset. This would give them more credibility and make our tv shows better. I know the argument is that our rosters are too big now but we have all been very good at helping any new writers with talent that it would still work. Thoughts? Maybe we have already been doing this and I was just unaware of it?

UWF adds Superstar Graham and releases Bob Roop. Anyone who wishes to pick up Bob Roop please note that he has about 6 weeks until retirement.
-
With moves that we all know are coming, that might just have been the biggest show in this game to date! Flair gets some love with this match after recent struggles while the rest of the 4 Horsemen have some serious question marks swirling around them. Excited for the Road Warriors to be the next NWA Champions and for all you NWA members, please, please use them often. I also agree with Lowblow about Orndorff.... he is and will continue to be a star for MACW.

As for the pictures, I had the same problem and was told to sign up for imgur.com and it has worked well since. Wrestlemania was a great show with my favorite being the Savage/Windham match. I think the reason was that it was very unpredictable. One negative of this entire project is that we all know the moving pieces so many of our big matches lose some of their luster. Hogan vs Dibiase and the Fab Ones vs The Harts are all-time classics and you did a great job of painting the picture of an amazing match but with the outcome already known they did not have me on the edge of my seat like Savage and Windham but for all the wrestling fans out there, these matches would be some of the greatest memories of their entire sports lives. People is Chicago would be talking about Hansen vs Andre for a long time and was another of my favorites in Wrestlemania II. Again, I think it was because I was wondering the whole time if Hansen might actually get the win. Great job building Bull Ganter up to more then he ever was in real life. That is one of the fun aspects of this project. We all seem to be very name recognition based and it is fun for someone like Bull Ganter to get some star attention.

Nice show here as I think Jimmy Snuka was a great way ti get Polynesian Power introduced to the fan. I saw some of the shows from Hawaii when I was a kid and it is very similar to Southern Style wrestling with a bit of Polynesians vs the World. These two were huge stars and great on the mic. I hope we all give them a chance here. Really looking forward to the show in Greensboro as it might be one of the biggest this project has seen to date.

Matt Borne is on the rise here as the fans in Montreal get a great show. Thanks for the help with the Warrior. I hope he continues on a bit of a rise this year.

WRESTLING: 3/29/1986 BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA RIVER CENTER ARENA MAGNUM TA DEFEATS ALBERT MIKE GEORGE WITH THE BELLY TO BELLY IN 31 SECONDS At the interview desk, we see a quick video of TA & Rick Martel defeating the Koloffs last week in Jacksonville as TA hit the belly to belly on Ivan. Magnum TA: Nikita Koloff! All of the people of the UWF know what you have been doing around here. From what you have done to the American Dream Dusty Rhodes to what you have done to the King of Memphis, Jerry Lawler. Well it is time you pay for what you have done. Everyone knows the UWF title is a very prestigious title and I coming to take it from you. Make no mistake about it, Nikita Koloff. The party is over! You won’t be sitting around drinking anymore vodka living on easy street. You better have eyes in the back of your head cause that UWF title is coming home to America. ROAD WARRIORS DEFEAT THE MEMPHIS BRUISE BROTHERS WITH THE DOOMSDAY DEVICE ON CASH. Hawk: Weeeelllllll the time has come. It is time for the Anderson’s to run. Run or else stay and get the worst beating of your lives! Tell um Animal! Animal: That’s right Hawk. Ole and Arn Anderson be ready for the fight of your life. Tonight, in Greensboro, North Carolina we are going to beat you from pillar to post and take that those NWA Tag Team titles and put them right where they belong…. Around the waists of the most dominating team this sport has ever seen! Paul Ellering: That’s right Jim Ross, next week when you see the Road Warriors they will be wearing gold and another thing… you won’t be seeing the Anderson’s next week! THE FANTASTICS DEFEATED LARRY CHEATUM & BILL HOWEND AS BOBBY FULTON HOT THE FANTASTIC FLIP While the Fantastics have not been in the area for a while, they are world famous and the crowd popped as soon as they came out with Sharpe Dressed Man blaring from the speakers. Their energy and charisma were not lost on the fans. We find out that they are in town for the NWA National Tag Team Title Match on Monday night in Nashville. The interview gets interrupted by Jim Cornett, the Midnight Express and Dirty Dick Slater! Jim Cornette: Well, well, well, if it is not the Fantastics. Bobby Fulton and Tommy Rogers back in town thinking they are going to take the National Tag Titles with them. Well listen up you two bozos. While you might be fantastic, the Midnight Express are the greatest tag team in wrestling today and we are going to beat you within an inch of your lives! As the Fantastics inch toward the Express, Dirty Dick Slater steps up as Lance Russell begs for peace. Jim Cornette: Oh before you two pretty boys get any ideas, notice the newest member of Camp Cornette, the Continental Champion, Dick Slater. Tell these morons why! Dick Slater: I told you I came here as the #1 free agent in the game today and I would go to whoever paid me the most money and helped me get the gold. Well I got the gold on my own and Cornette decided to give me ½ of his winnings from the Crockett Cup. How could I turn down that cash to be in the greatest alliance in wrestling today! Jim Cornette: That’s right, what does money really mean to me. Momma has so much we don’t know what to do with it so I just added the best fighter in the game! Show them all what I mean Dick! WHAM! Slater steps right up and clocks Fulton and the 3-2 brawl is on. LEX LUGER WITH BABY DOLL DEFEATS IVAN KOLOFF BY DQ AS NIKITA RUSHED THE RING AS IVAN WAS UP IN THE BACKBREAKER RACK. As Luger and Koloff had a nice little brawl in the ring, Magnum TA hits the ring and the duo of Lex and Magnum was too much for the Koloffs who headed for the hills. Baby Doll takes the lead at the interview desk where she really plays up the fact that when she comes back next week, she will have the two hottest guys on her arms. She also hypes up the fact that Lex is going to take the UWF title from Nikita this week in the Omni. “DR. D” DAVID SCHULTZ DESTROYS KEN RAPER WHEN HE FOLLOWED UP A FOREARM SMASH WITH A PILEDRIVER Schultz is really nasty in his first interview in the UWF. He puts down everything from the fans to all the talentless wrestlers around. The one thing he did seem to like was that tall blonde who was just out with the loser Luger. He invited Baby Doll to come and be with a real man! ROCK n ROLL EXPRESS + JEFF JARRETT DEFEAT VERLON BIGGS, TOM FOX AND HOMER DELL WITH THE DOUBLE DROPKICK At the interview desk, the Rock n Roll Express praise Jeff Jarrett and saw even though he is young, he has something that you need to have in this sport and that’s guts. The also go on to mock Buddy Landell who has already lost twice to Jarrett in his first two matches. As the the Rock n Roll Express head off stage and leave their new tag partner to do his other job which is announcing, Lance informs us that it will be the RnR Express with Jeff against the Hollywood Blondes in Nashville this Thursday. When we come back from break, we see the medics at the interview desk with a stretcher which they are placing Jeff Jarrett onto. His father and the Rock N Roll Expree are with him as Lance explains that Rip Oliver and the other Hollywood Blondes (Rip Rogers and Buddy Landell) came out and roughed up Jarrett as the Crippler Rip Oliver actually hit Jarret with a piledriver on the concrete floor. After we see Jarrett carted off and his father going with him, we hear from an enraged Rock n Roll Express and how they are going to get even with the Hollywood Blondes this week in Nashville. STEVE “DR. DEATH” BEAT KENDELL WINDHAM WHEN HE CONNECTED WITH A FOOTBALL TACKLE AFTER SKANDAR AKBAR DISTRACTED WINDHAM. For no good reason at all, Akbar signals to the back and the Barbarian hits the ring and really lay the boots to Windham. After a minute or two, Sam Houston comes out but he is met with the same rough tactics. Eventually we get order restored but after the break we see Devastation Inc at the interview desk where they are sick and tired of all the praise that has been given to the Texas Tornados. They believe that they are the #1 team in the UWF and claim that they deserve a shot at the Road Warriors and that they are going to prove that this week in Atlanta when the crush Sam Houston and Kendell Windham. DICK MURDOCH BEATS SHASKA WHATLEY WITH ERNIE LADD WITH THE BRAINBUSTER. While the fans loved seeing the Nation of Domination go down in defeat, they were surprised when Captain Redneck hit a second Brainbuster on Shaska. Ladd was furious and rushed the ring and went after Murdoch. What happens next confused everyone as another huge black man standing nearly 6’6 and 350 pounds hits the ring and goes after Ladd and then he turns back and has words with Dick Murdoch. Lance Russell is confused by all this but gets nowhere with his interview as every just walks off stage. BIG BUBBA OTTMAN WITH RON WRIGHT DESTROYS SCOTT ARMSTRONG AS HE HIT A GIANT SPLASH IN LESS THEN A MINUTE. For no good reason, Ron Wright brings out his “knucklebuster” and is about to whack Armstrong but they get chased off by a rather strange pair as Bullet Bob Armstrong hits the ring with the Tennessee Stud, Ron Fuller. Lance Russell: Well I can’t believe my eyes. Is Ron Fuller and Bob Armstrong on the same side. Ron Fuller: Well Lance, sometimes what brings people together is a common enemy. I have been watching what Wright has been doing around here. Bringing in these goons like Baron Von Raschke, the Dirty White Boy and Big Bubba Ottman just to rid the UWF of all the “unchristian” wrestlers. Now that is a great big pile of hogwash! The Fullers and the Armstongs aint always been on the same side but we have never sided with the Nazis. I mean that is as Unchristian” as you can get. So for now, Bob and I are the same side and have the same goal which is to rid the UWF of Ron Wright! EXOTIC ADRIAN STREET & TOMMY RICH WITH MISS LINDA DEFEAT THE LONG RIDERS (BASS & BART) Even in a wild brawl like this, Exotic Adrian Street keeps everyone guessing and what is coming next. After he hit Bass with a lowblow, the ref went to admonish him and he kissed the ref! In the end, Street catches Bart in a roll up after Miss. Linda sprayed the perfume bottle. Wildfire is all smiles and is enjoying this one. Again, Rich has helped to put Street over with the fans.

Love tournaments!

I hope that Wendell Cooley continues his roll here. Many of us have had him on our rosters but never found a way to do him justice! So many ways to go after that big 6 man match that I am anxious for the next show to see where it goes.
-
I am glad the people of West Virginia get a show here. I always remember promos for Wheeling on Georgia Championship Wrestling. As always, your show as a fun read. Nice to see Ole get softened up a bit here for the UWF Road Warriors. Nice main event. I was thinking the title was heading back to Texas.

World Class Championship Wrestling: March 1986
kevinmcfl replied to GeneJackson95's topic in Promotions
I agree with Gordi. The pictures were great here. JYD brought the house down and then Terry Funk leaves them in shock. Will there be any punishment for the Funks for being in the building or will there just be big time revenge for the VonErichs. Can't wait to find out. -
Great show here as some angles are continuing and others are just getting going. Trouble in paradise for Soul Patrol? An angry Blackjack better be watched carefully or someone will get hurt. Valiant coming for Johnny Rich should be fun. And the arrogance of the Four Horsemen never ceases to amaze.

Great show, great format! WCCW continues to be a great read. Glad the King is doing well in Texas and looking forward to him teaming up with Martel. Excited to see who joins Mr. Olympia also.
