Continental Championship Wrestling TV Saturday August 7, 1986 Hosted by Gordon Solie Ring Announcer: Freddie Miller Interviewer: Joe PedicinoFrom the Civic Center in Montgomery, Alabama (The show opens with highlights from last Monday night as Scott Armstrong pinned Steve Regal to win the U.S. Jr Championship after a miscue from Dark Journey, Tatsumi Fujinami pinning Brad Armstrong clean in the middle of the ring to become #1 Contender to the Continental title, and then highlights from the "High Stakes" Six Man Cage Match are shown ending with Cooley hitting the bulldog on Mr. Olympia only to have Buddy Landel lock on the figure four and get the win for the Continental title, it then cuts to Mr. Olympia unmasking to reveal Jerry Stubbs…..we then see the opening montage set to the instrumental of Eddie Murphy's 'Party all the time' and then to the desk with our host the one and only Gordon Solie) Solie: "Hello everyone and welcome once again to Continental Championship Wrestling sanctioned by the NWA, the oldest and largest governing body of professional wrestling the world over. What a night it was last Monday night as you just saw only a few of the highlights as we opened the show….and we have a great show for you here this evening as well as coming up this Monday night in Birmingham, Alabama. Tonight, we'll see the re-debut if you will of 'Luscious' Lanny Poffo along with Man and Woman. You'll also see the new Continental Heavyweight Champion Buddy Landel in action as he prepares to defend that title this Monday night against Tatsumi 'the Dragon' Fujinami. We'll also be hearing from 'Bullet' Bob Armstrong for the first time in a few weeks to get an update on his injury and speaking of injuries, we'll also hear from the "American Dream" Dusty Rhodes during this program as well. All that and so much more but right now, let's go to the ring for our opening bout." ======================== MATCH #1: "Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal w/Dark Journey pinned Ray Purchase after an back elbow drop from the 2nd rope (Joe Pedicino is joined in the interview area by Regal, Dark Journey, The Spoiler, and their newest associate "Crippler" Rip Oliver) Joe: "Steve Regal, last week you lost your United States Jr Championship to Scott Armstrong when your own manager hit you with her purse." DJ: "Hold up just a minute, Pedicino. First of all, I just want to point out the fact, I've been here for WEEKS…and Steve Regal was the champion for WEEKS but not one time did we get any interview time on this television show….NOT ONCE. However, something goes wrong and I accidently hit Steve with my purse and you can't wait to come out here and rub it in our faces. Meanwhile, the Spoiler has been undefeated….but NO, let's not talk about that." Joe: "My apologies, Ms. Journey….it was not intentional." Regal: "Well let me tell you what will be intentional! I'm going to intentionally injure Scott Armstrong this week on the way to regaining my championship! I got a rematch last week in some of those hick towns but the time limit was too short…..this time I'll have thirty whole minutes to take Armstrong apart and regain my title!" DJ: "That's exactly right! Also, this man right here…..'the Crippler' Rip Oliver is going to get a chance to make waves right out of the gate when he beats that 'daddy's boy' Brad Armstrong on Monday night!" Oliver: "That's right! Making waves is what I do, along with crippling people! Brad Armstrong, you're a good wrestler but when I get done with you boy, you're going to be worse off than your daddy was when the Richs got done with him!" Regal: "You mean the Interns…." DJ: "Yeah, exactly….he meant the Interns….that's all we have to say for now, Joey…..but next time don't wait so long to see what we have to say!" ======================= COMMERCIAL BREAK ======================= Solie: "Last week it was announced that Magnum T.A. would finally get his NWA World title rematch at Beach Brawl coming up on Monday August 30th and that the stipulations would be announced in the coming weeks, well the good news is we won't have to wait weeks as we have gotten word from NWA President 'Cowboy' Bill Watts and he had this to say about this huge upcoming rematch!" (VTR- 'Cowboy' Bill Watts is standing in front of the Mid South Wrestling banner) Watts: "Hello Continental fans, it's my pleasure to be coming to you again with some exciting news concerning the big long awaited rematch from the Great American Bash! As you all know, 'the Russian Nightmare' Nikita Koloff defeated Magnum T.A. to win the NWA World title under some questionable circumstances. Some things have gone on between these two men since that time that has caused even more bad blood between them if you can even believe that's possible. Therefore, it is my feeling and the feeling of everyone on the NWA Championship Committee that a normal championship match will not resolve this issue. When considering stipulations for this very highly anticipated rematch we took both sides into consideration. I reached out to both competitors and asked them what their preference would be, of course Nikita Koloff requested the match be….a Russian Chain Match. I spoke to Magnum and asked his preference and he said he would prefer what he now considers to be his specialty match….an 'I Quit' match. I took these requests into consideration and upon talking with the Championship committee as well as Continental's Les Thatcher and here's what we came up with. At Beach Brawl, the NWA World Championship rematch will be the champion Nikita Koloff versus Magnum T.A. in a first time ever in wrestling, Russian Chain/I Quit Match! The way this match will work, the two men will be attached at the wrist with the Russian Chain but rather than having to drag your opponent around to all four corners, you must make him say, "I Quit"! This will be a very dangerous match but I truly feel like we will be able to put an end to this feud once and for all and decide definitively who is the tougher man between the two. Also, during this championship match….Ivan Koloff will be barred from the building, if 'Uncle Ivan' shows his face in the building during this match, the match will be stopped and awarded to Magnum T.A. Thank you for your time and I look forward to seeing the Continental fans at Beach Brawl '86 in Biloxi!" (END VTR) Solie: "WOW! What a blockbuster announcement from Bill Watts…The first ever 'Russian Chain/I Quit' match! We'll hear from Magnum T.A. next week to get his thoughts on this stipulation for his big championship rematch! Let's go back to the ring!" ============================ MATCH #2: Brad Armstrong pinned Curley Jefferson with the 'Russian Leg Sweep' (After match-Brad joins Gordon Solie at the desk) Solie: "Brad, you had one of the greatest matches I ever witnessed last week against Tatsumi Fujinami but you came up a bit short, this week you'll be facing a newcomer to Continental but certainly not a newcomer to the ring. Rip Oliver." Brad: "Gordon, first of all let me just say, I'm not the least be ashamed to have lost to Mr. Fujinami, that man is one of the best in the game today, and I honestly don't understand why he associates himself with people like Humperdink, Sato, and Goto because he certainly doesn't need to. Now as for Rip Oliver, I know what he's all about and we've seen what Dark Journey is all about, and believe me I'll be more than ready come Monday for whatever they may have up their sleeve. Speaking of having things up their sleeve….I've got something up mine…..I know you thought it was going to be via videotape but I just happen to have someone back there that would like to come say a few words if these good people don't mind too much!" ('Bad to the Bone' by George Thorogood plays as Bob Armstrong makes his way out to the podium---the crowd goes nuts!) Solie: "Well what a welcome surprise this is….welcome back 'Bullet' Bob!" Bob: "Thank you very much Mr. Solie and thank you to all these great fans out here! Now what you might know that everyone else doesn’t is that I've signed a match for this Monday night in Birmingham……I'll be facing that no good egg suckin' dog Johnny Rich…one on one while my son Steve will be handcuffed to Davey Rich at ringside! Now as far as the so-called 'Intern' or shall I just say, Tommy Rich! You came down last week and cost Steve his match with your cousin Johnny, well come on down there Monday night if you want to and I'll snatch that sock off your head and show everybody just who you are and we'll be rid of you once and for all!!" Solie: "Well there you have it from the Armstrongs…..guys please excuse me but we seem to have something happening at ringside, let's go down to Joe Pedicino." ============================== (Joe Pedicino is down at ringside when he is approached by MAN and WOMAN) Woman: "It's time….it's happening…..get ready! The time is now….nothing can prepare you for what your about to experience Joe Pedicino, HE is about to redefine how everyone experiences pleasure……and PAIN!" The lights in the arena drop to near darkness and stay that way long enough to make the crowd start buzzing. Then a single spotlight shines into the aisle way for several moments, then that spotlight turns a shade of deep pink. "Welcome to The Pleasuredome" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood begins to pump in as lights begin to strobe near the aisle way. Then someone steps out wearing a large feathered robe done up in yellow, orange, and pink. Their face is obscured by an elaborate Mardi Gras style mask as they slink down to ringside. The music continues to play, and the pink light follows them as they slowly walk toward the ring. Once they reach the area where Joe Pedicino, Woman, and Man are standing, the lights go dark and the music stops. When they come back on, another stands next to Joe Pedicino..... Ring Announcer Freddie Miller proclaims: "Making his way into the ring accompanied by Woman and Man……weighing in at a weight that is none of your concern……from 'Beyond the Pleasuredome"…….prepare yourself to experience……."Luscious" Lanny Poffo!" ------------------------------------------- MATCH #3: "Luscious" Lanny Poffo w/Woman & Man vs. Parker Williams Poffo was in rare form here…..starting off prancing around the ring but then charging in hitting Williams with vicious strikes beating him down in the corner then caressing his face almost lovingly before nailing him with stiff vicious kicks. Poffo locks him in a head scissors, then turns him face down ramming his head into the mat repeatedly. Poffo releases the head scissors then prances around the ring some more allowing Williams to try to recover….as Williams attempts to get up off the mat, Poffo locks him into a 'Crossface Chickenwing', he leaves him in it a for a few moments while obviously applying very little pressure before saying something into Williams' ear and then clamping the hold on with excessive force, bringing on the submission, Solie informs us that Woman has told him this hold is known as the "Painacle" as it's the "Pinnacle of Pain". Moments later Poffo/Woman/Man join Solie at the podium Solie: "Quite the impressive win Mr. Poffo." Poffo: "No no….call me Luscious." Solie: "Um…..ok, Luscious. What are your intentions now that you have returned and Jimmy Gar.." (Poffo and Woman both place their index fingers over Solie's mouth)" Woman: "Now, now Gordy…..I told you about mentioning that name…..WE DON'T!" Poffo: "That's right Gordy, we don't speak that name, he and that witch of his are in the past and are no longer relevant…. I'm here to redefine pleasure and pain….I'm here to show you that what's beautiful (points to himself and Woman) can also be quite deadly. You can't judge a book by it's cover Gordy." Solie: "Fair enough, I just have one question……what did you say to Mr. Williams before you really clamped down on that hold, Mr. Pof…um, Luscious." Poffo: "Gordy, that's private…..if you really want to know what I say before I lock in the PAINacle, you'll need to step in the ring with me and experience for yourself." Solie: "No, no….I suppose that will have to remain a mystery in that case." Poffo: (gets uncomfortably close) "Well…that's a real shame, Gordy…..the line between pain and pleasure are much closer to one another than most realize….Until next time." (As Poffo prances away, Woman as always runs her hand down Gordon's cheek which as always causes him to blush as she walks away, Man puts his hand on Gordon's shoulder then winks at him) Solie: (stammering) "Uh, Let's go to a commercial break…" ===================== COMMERCIAL BREAK As we return, Gordon runs down this week's card for Birmingham Continental Championship Wrestling Boutwell Auditorium Birmingham, Alabama Monday August 9, 1986 Bell Time: 7pm MAIN EVENT NWA Continental Heavyweight Championship "Nature Boy" Buddy Landel vs. Tatsumi 'the Dragon' Fujinami w/Sir Oliver Humperdink SEMI-MAIN EVENT TAG TEAM FIRST BLOOD MATCH "Wildcat" Wendell Cooley/Magnum T.A. vs. Blackjack Mulligan/"Outlaw" Ron Bass w/Ronnie P.

Stubbs: "No one else is…..they are getting ready to take out Wendell Cooley and Magnum T.A. on Monday night, while I should be getting my rematch with Buddy Landel for MY Continental title, I find out some Japanese guy is getting my shot!" Solie: "Tatsumi Fujinami earned that title shot when he defeated Brad Armstrong last week and I'm sure you will be first in line to get your rematch in the near future. However, since you’re here….I would like to hear what you have to say about losing your title, your mask and your identity as Mr. Olympia." Stubbs: "Sure, I'll be glad to tell you what I have to say about it! It was a blessing in disguise! Sure, my title was stolen from me….but I'll get that back in due time. The great thing is, now I don't have to wear that stupid hot mask anymore and now all the women can see my handsome face which means ticket sales are gonna go through the roof…and as far as my 'identity' as 'Mr. Olympia'? Now I can be who I truly am and always was…."Mr. Continental" Jerry Stubbs! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm taking the week off until I return to take back MY title!" ===================== COMMERCIAL BREAK ===================== Solie: "Before we get ready to go to our main event as Continental Champion Buddy Landel will be facing Akio Sato with Sir Oliver Humperdink, let's go to Austin, Texas and hear from the one and only 'American Dream' Dusty Rhodes." (VTR: Dusty Rhodes is sitting in a studio) Dusty: "You know in this sport of professional rasslin…..there aren't a lot of people that I trust. There's even less people that I consider a friend. Blackjack Mulligan, you were one of those chosen few that I trusted…….you were one of those chosen few that I called a friend….Blackjack Mulligan, I offered up my innocence and you paid me back in scorn….and not only did you turn your back on me but you turned your back on my good friend Magnum T.A.! What the hell did Magnum T.A. do to you, huh? You came out here last week on this show with your new buddy Ronnie Gossett and Ron Bass and said the reason you turned on me is because I cost you the Mid South tag team titles. You came out here last week on this show and you said you turned your back on me because I somehow cost you a shot at the World title. Well, first of all Mr. Mulligan, if I did cost you that shot, I did you a favor cause that Russian would whoop your old fat butt like you owed him money….that's first of all, baybee! Second of all….it seems to me, if you was any kind of man at all….if you had a problem with me, you would have been a man and just told me you had a problem rather than show up to be my partner and pull that stunt that you did! Well, here's where we are with this thing now, baybee……I've talked to Mr. Les Thatcher, if ya weel…..I've talked to tha big Cowboy himself, Mr. Bill Watts….and you and I, Blackjack are gonna step in that ring at Beach Brawl in a Bunkhouse Match! Then we'll see….whose bad? Then we'll see how much of a problem you've got with Dusty Rhodes…..because I can promise you that NOW….Dusty Rhodes has a big A** problem with you!" (END VTR) (When we return Buddy Landel has joined Gordon Solie at the desk) Solie: "Some very strong words from Dusty Rhodes and as you can see I'm joined now by the new Continental Champion, Buddy Landel." Landel: "Wow, those were some strong words from Dusty Rhodes…..but you know who else had some strong words out here earlier…..Jerry Stubbs. Ol' Chrome Dome was here saying that the ratings would go up now that he's not wearing a mask…..are you kidding me? The glare coming off that head alone is going to be causing thousands of people at home to have to adjust the brightness level on their televisions Mr. Solie. Can you imagine? Mr. Continental? Jerry Stubbs has the nerve to call himself, Mr. Continental? If anybody is Mr. Continental, it's Buddy Landel. But, we'll deal with Stubbs in the future because this week, they've already got me defending my title against one of these Japanese guys managed by Sir Bolivar Plumperdink or whatever that ugly troll's name is…..honestly, Mr. Solie…have you ever seen anyone uglier than Plumperdink…..I mean besides Ronnie 'Porky' Gossett, that is. You know, my mother told me the other day, 'Buddy, you sure are mean to that Ronnie Gossett but he seems to take it right on the chin' I said, yeah of course he does, cause he's got four more chins to back it up. (Solie laughs) But, Mr. Solie….I'm not here to talk about what a fat lousy slob of a waste of skin that Ronnie Gossett is though I think everyone here agrees. (Fans cheer) The reason I'm out here is I would like to call Wendell Cooley out here to clear the air about what happened in the match last week." (Wendell Cooley makes his way out looking a bit apprehensive) Cooley: "Buddy, I saw you in dressing room earlier today, if you needed to talk to me why didn't you do it back there….why are we doing this out here?" Landel: "Total transparency, baby. I want everyone to know where we stand. Now, I've been told that you may be a bit upset because you gave Stubbs the bulldog, and some people think I took advantage of the situation where I shouldn't have…..but I promise you, I just turned around and saw him there and my instincts kicked in….I didn't realize that you had bulldogged him….I would never ever try to take advantage of a situation like that….on purpose" (Cooley makes a face) (Jerry Stubbs comes running out there) Stubbs: "Cooley, you aren't buying this crap are you? Of course he would take advantage of the situation…..this guy is the same lowlife he's always been….he just had to suck up to you and all the fans to try to weasel his way back into Continental….nothing has changed." Landel: "Listen here Stubbs, you mind your business….regardless of whether I put you in the figure four or Cooley pinned you….you were losing the title and taking off that mask so butt out!" Stubbs: "So there….you admit it! It all hinged on Cooley's bulldog…..you said it, either way I was beat after the bulldog….that's what did it…..YOU just took advantage of the situation!" (Cooley sorta nods in agreement) Cooley: "He seems to have a point there, Buddy. Had I not given him the bulldog, would you be champion right now?" Landel: "Of course I would baby, that's all coincidental. What have I got to do smooth this over?" Stubbs: "Give him a shot at the title." (Cooley nods in agreement) Landel: "Shut up Stubbs, Wendell doesn't want to wrestle me, we're great friends now. Plus, I have to defend against Bruce Lee or whoever, and then when I beat him, you're next in line…..you said it yourself." Stubbs: "I'll tell you what…..I feel so strongly about Cooley deserving a shot….I'll step aside and let him have his title shot first if you can even beat Fujinami that is." (Cooley looks at Stubbs like he's crazy) Cooley: "Wait…what? What are you up to Stubbs?" Landel: "He's just trying to cause a rift between you and I because he doesn't want me to have any allies….because he's a jerk." Stubbs: "Fine Cooley, if you're scared to face Landel, and you don't want your shot then I'll take my shot first." Cooley: "I ain't scared of anyone…..sure, if Buddy gets past Fujinami I'll be next in line." (Stubbs walks away laughing) Landel: "What the hell do you mean…IF I get back Fujinami?" (Cooley walks away with Landel following behind him questioning him) Solie: "Well, it certainly looks like Jerry Stubbs has stirred the pot in the possibly already strained Buddy Landel/Wendell Cooley relationship. Let's head down to the ring to see the new champ in non-title action." ========================= MATCH #5 MAIN EVENT NON-TITLE MATCH NWA Continental Heavyweight Champion "Nature Boy" Buddy Landel pinned Akio Sato w/Sir Oliver Humperdink with his feet on the ropes. Humperdink was beside himself after the match as Jerry Stubbs ran down to ringside to tell the referee that Landel cheated. © 1986 Continental Championship Wrestling/National Wrestling Alliance

The Bruise Brothers don't seem to be too concearned with the "new" version of Priceless.....that not serve them well....Wells and Morrow are a dangerous combination Ferris gets the win over Crews.....he's an awful big man for the Great Gagne to contend with....looking forward to this title match! I'm such a fan of "El Jefe" , I wish Estrada would have gotten this kind of opportunity IRL to do a character like this....such a great fit for him! Billy Jack did some serious damage to Steamboat with that Full Nelson then ramming him head first into the post....we may have a new Champion come Labor Day. WOW, what a mystery partner for Larry Z.....I did not see that coming which makes for the best outcome in these situations. Soviet Steel vs. The Olympians is what pro wrestling in 1986 is all about! Dundee vs. Lawler in Memphis on Labor Day! It could be a one match card and still sell out! Dream Machine and Jones make for quite the duo.....sorry Snuka! Great show as always!

The Supershow was super indeed! Glad to see Wendi/Peggy Lee win the World Tag titles! The Medusa angle has been so well done so far, looking forward to watching this play out.

Another great round of house shows, loving the Sullivan/Pride feud! Great win for the SPC! Mantell gets the W over Abby but at what cost! I would have been super excited to be there for Funk vs. Killer Brooks! Slater gets the win in the taped fist match! I love it!

The Rebel is coming along! Wins like this one will go a long way towards getting US Steel over with this crowd. Hayes vs. Dr. Death went exactly the way it needed to but I'm glad Hayes didn't back down....looking forward to seeing how things play out with Gordy. Hmm fun finish with Watts giving Ladd more ammo for future promos! Great main event that sent the fans home happy with Adnan getting his ass whipped by Reed! Great show!

Landel got busted open against the cage by Mulligan, before Mulligan paired off fighting with Magnum…..who ended up busting Blackjack open as well, Cooley laid out Ron Bass…and was jumped from behind by Mr. Olympia…….Cooley fights back and manages to hit Olympia with the RUNNING BULLDOG!! However, before Cooley could go for the pin…..Landel slaps the figure four on Olympia and he eventually gives up!! Cooley looks slightly annoyed but the fans go wild as Freddie Miller announced that Buddy Landel is the new Continental Heavyweight Champion and that Mr. Olympia must now unmask! At first, Olympia did the old pull off the mask and have another mask underneath……However, Les Thatcher came to ringside and said that if Mr. Olympia didn't completely unmask he would be suspended for life! So, Olympia finally removed the second mask to reveal to no one's surprise…..Jerry Stubbs.

Uh oh Sullivan has got the Golden spike back and Pride falls victim! Thank goodness Al Perez made the save....which didn't serve him well as he got spiked on his way to a loss to Jason!

If I was Michael Hayes, I might consider leaving town.....I wouldn't want a blind Terry Gordy after but I damn sure want Dr Death after me looking for justice in a Stetcher Match! The Alaskan Hunters have arrived and are quite the team from what I've seen of them. Bad News vs. Bruiser Brody is going to be a barn burner! Looking forward to the Six Man Tag, hoping Reed gets a chance to get his hands on Adnan for five minutes!

Great card! Nice win for Ronnie Garvin! Wahoo gets the hard fought win over Bock in his specialty match. The Golden Boys get the count out with over The Awesome Twosome....not sure they'll be able to pull off a pinfall or submission win over these guys. The Superstar is back and costs Lawler his match with Idol, I never get tired of Lawler against either of these guys! Steamboat retains the AWA World title over Billy Jack Haynes....but I don't the Dragon has heard the last of him!

Continental Championship Wrestling TV Saturday July 31, 1986 Hosted by Gordon Solie Ring Announcer: Freddie Miller Interviewer: Joe Pedicino From the Houston County Farm Center in Dothan, Alabama (The show begins with the shocking footage of Blackjack Mulligan turning on his partners Dusty Rhodes and Magnum T.A. last Monday night and then still shots of the bloody aftermath as Blackjack worked over Dusty as the Russians beatdown Magnum and assaulted a referee……we also see a clip of Terry Taylor and Tom Zenk defeating the Dirty White Boys in the tournament finals to win the vacant Continental Tag Team titles! We then go to the opening montage set to the instrumental version of Eddie Murphy's 'Party All the Time' and then to the set with your host world renown wrestling commentator Gordon Solie) Solie: "Hello and welcome once again to Continental Championship Wrestling, sanctioned by the National Wrestling Alliance and bru--ther do we have a show in store for you tonight, after all the crazy happenings of last Monday night in that wild six man steel cage match as well as the crowning of the new Continental tag team champions, we have plenty to discuss here tonight and much like in recent weeks, I'm going to ask Les Thatcher to join us and discuss what the aftermath of some this recent action will be." Les: "Thanks Gordon, as always it was another wild week here in Continental and I tried to be as proactive as possible at handling things as they arose but there are still some things I need to talk about here tonight but first let me just say, for those who weren't present for the tournament. The Stud Stable went into their first round match with the Gilberts over confident and arrogant and that arrogance cost them the match and their egos couldn't take it and they brutalized both Tommy and Doug Gilbert after the match and caused them to have to forfeit the rest of the tournament. I have suspended both Robert Fuller and Jimmy Golden for 90 days and they are currently trying to protest this ruling with the NWA but I can promise you it will stand and you won't be seeing those two around Continental for the next 90 days." Solie: "Well, I'm glad to hear that because that attack was uncalled for and I know how much it meant to Tommy Gilbert to compete in that tournament for the titles alongside his son and he was robbed of that opportunity." Les: "That's exactly right, now a couple of other guys who seem to think they can do whatever they want is Ivan and Nikita Koloff. I confronted them in the dressing room after they assaulted a referee and Ivan Koloff told me that I quote, "can't touch them" because Nikita is the World Champion, well Ivan you are sadly mistaken because starting right now you two are suspended until August 30th at Beach Brawl in Biloxi, Mississippi. NWA President 'Cowboy' Bill Watts has already signed for Magnum T.A.'s rematch for the NWA World Championship to take place that night at Beach Brawl. I'm told there will be a special stipulation added to that match in the coming weeks." Solie: "Ordinarily I'd say that Magnum will be upset to wait that long for his rematch but he seems to have some other affairs to attend to right now." Les: "Indeed he does, Gordon. Steel Cage matches are something we do regularly here in Continental but a couple of days ago…….Magnum and Wendell Cooley came to me and said they want another six man cage match, against Blackjack Mulligan, 'Outlaw' Ron Bass, and Mr. Olympia and they want it this Monday night. Now, obviously their first choice to be their partner would be Dusty Rhodes, but Dusty suffered an injury last week at the hands of Mulligan and we don't know just when he'll be back in action. However, T.A. and Cooley say they have the perfect partner in mind for this match. They also said they want to "raise the stakes" for this match…..so after talking to them, and then sitting down and talking to Mulligan, Bass, and Olympia….I've managed to come up with stipulations that will make this match most interesting…..stakes that effect each participant in this match differently if they are the one who gets pinned or submits." Solie: "Wow, Les….that's a lot to take in, how about we go to the ring for some action and we'll discuss this huge match up a bit more, a little later." ======================= MATCH #1: The Highwaymen (Bobby Duncum/Phil Hickerson) defeated Ronnie Jenkins/Fred Garvin when Duncum pinned Jenkins after a powerslam Post match: Joe Pedicino approached the Highwaymen and talked to them about the tag team tournament. They voiced their displeasure about coming up short and said they will take out their frustration this Monday night on Savannah Jack and Skip Young and show why they are the meanest, nastiest, and toughest tag team in the NWA! Suddenly another tag team approaches wearing cowboy hats and carrying nooses. Joe: "Guys, this is the Highwaymen's time, I'm not sure what you're doing here." Jaggers: "I'm Bobby Jaggers and this is my partner Dirty Rhodes, and we're the Hangmen and we go anywhere we want, whenever we want……and as far as these two washed up has beens thinking they are mean, nasty, or tough? You've gotta be joking! These two powder puffs couldn't….." Before Jaggers could finish that sentence, Duncum and Hickerson attacked and a wild brawl broke out and Gordon Solie called to the truck to go to a commercial break! ======================== COMMERCIAL BREAK ======================== (As we return from break Gordon Solie is once again joined by Woman….and Man) Solie: "Well, hello Woman….to what do we owe the pleasure?" Woman: "Oh, look at you Gordon…you sweet talker you. I think you know why we're here. Next week….the happening will take place….the biggest thing to ever happen in wrestling. This time, it will be done right. This time, nothing will get in our way. Next week will be the re-premier of….LUSCIOUS….Lanny Poffo. NOTHING can prepare you! See you next week, Gordon." (Once again she runs her hand down Gordon Solie's cheek then walks away….and again Man puts his hand on Gordon's shoulder and gives him a knowing wink) Solie: (stammering) "Um…let's go to the ring." ======================== MATCH #2: Scott Armstrong pinned Curly Jefferson following a super kick Post match- Scott joins Gordon Solie at the desk, Gordon puts over the fact that Scott is a multiple time NWA U.S. Jr. Heavyweight Champion and that he will be getting a shot at "Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal this Monday night, while his brother Steve will be taking on Johnny Rich. Scott talks about how much the US jr title means to him and how much he wants to win it back….he also talks about the fact that his family is convinced that Johnny and Tommy Rich were under those masks when his father got injured and that Steve will do his "dead level best" to return the favor and injure Johnny Rich this Monday night! ======================== (We cut to the dressing room where Blackjack Mulligan is hanging out with his new friends, Ronnie P. Gossett, Duke Myers, Ron Bass, and Mr. Olympia) Joe: "I'm going to get right to it Blackjack Mulligan, everyone wants to know….why did you turn your back on Dusty Rhodes and Magnum T.A.?" BJM: "First of all, tubby! You call me Mr. Mulligan! You haven't earned the right to call me Blackjack, only these men sitting in this room have! Why did I 'turn my back on Dusty and Magnum'? Was that your question? Well, Magnum was just there, I barely know that kid other than to say he's a young punk and not worthy of being my partner. So that brings us to Dusty Rhodes…..the so-called American Dream! I would say that's a joke but when you look around these arenas at all these fat, ugly, nothin' happenin' losers….I would say that Dusty Rhodes may very well be the 'American Dream'. Now, as for why I 'turned my back on him' as you called it…..just watch Mid South Wrestling! After I carried him as tag team champions….after I wrestled almost the entire match against the Masked Superstars…..what happened, that fat loser came in and got beat!! He rendered everything I did that night useless because he couldn't pull his weight….which I will admit…is A LOT! (the others all laugh). Then move on that VERY SAME NIGHT, I was in a battle royal to earn a shot at the NWA World Heavyweight title, I eliminated Jake the Snake, I had the Superstars right where I wanted them and what happens? That big fat goof comes barreling in there and being the clumsy fool that he is….he knocks ALL OF US out of the ring! IDIOT!! Then after all that….he has the nerve to call me up at my ranch and just TELL me 'we headed to Continental', be there on July 26th for a cage match. Well, don't nobody tell me what to do….so I called up an old friend here in Ron Bass and he put me in touch with this wonderful gentleman, Ronnie Gossett and….well, you know the rest, tubby." Bass: "How about you tell US something Joe Pinocchio! Why in the hell would we go right back into another cage match this week when we just won the one last week?? Les Thatcher has lost his mind!" Gossett: "More importantly, who is this partner they supposedly have? We know it ain't Dusty Rhodes, because Blackjack ran him out of the business last week! It ain't Bob Armstrong because the Interns broke his neck! So who's it going to be? Larry Hamilton? Could it be the Gilberts? Nope, the Stud Stable beat them half to death!" Joe: "I don't know, maybe they'll have to bring somebody back…." Olympia: "What? Bring who back? You shut your mouth, you goof! They aren't bringing in nobody back! Just get the hell outta here!" BJM: "I don't give a damn WHO they get for a partner! Just to show you how much I don't care! I'm issuing a challenge right now! I'll face any one of them right here tonight on this TV program. I'll face Magnum, Cooley, or whoever their so-called partner is and after I get done with them tonight, it will be a handicap match on Monday!" (Mulligan shoves Joe Pedicino out of the dressing room) ============================ COMMERCIAL BREAK ============================ (As we return from the break, Gordon Solie is joined by Brad Armstrong flanked by his brothers Scott and Steve) Solie: "Brad, you have a big match coming up this Monday night in Montgomery, Alabama as you'll be facing Tatsumi 'the Dragon' Fujinami in a match where the winner will be the #1 contender to the Continental Heavyweight Championship." Brad: "Gordon, I'm looking forward to this match, Fujinami is one of the best wrestlers in the world today, I don't understand why he runs with Humperdink and his cronies but I still have a lot of respect for him none the less." Solie: "I know you do and I invite you to stick around and watch him in action here in a moment but I wanted to take a moment to ask you how you father, Bob Armstrong is doing?" Brad: "He's getting better each day but his neck is in rough shape and he spends each and every day thinking about what he'll do to Tommy Rich when he gets his hands on him." Solie: "Well, he may not get that opportunity, at least not in a wrestling ring because the NWA has ruled if Rich doesn't pay this $100,000 fine, he will stay suspended until that fine is paid in full." Brad: "I can tell you this right now, if I had the money to spare, I'd pay it right now to get my hands on Tommy Rich and I know my father feels the same but we'll deal with him in due time, let's do some scouting of my opponent for this Monday night." Solie: "Indeed, let's go down to the ring to see the "Dragon" in action." ======================= MATCH #3: Tatsumi 'the Dragon' Fujinami w/Sir Oliver Humperdink pinned Ray Purchase with a 'Dragon Suplex' ======================= (Joe Pedicino is joined in the interview area by the new CCW Tag Team Champions Terry Taylor and Tom Zenk) Joe: "Guys, congrats on winning the tournament and becoming the brand new Continental tag team champions!" Taylor: "Thanks Joe! The competition was fierce and we are proud to represent Continental and these great fans as the tag team champions." Zenk: "That's exactly right, we haven't been teaming up very long but teaming with Terry has been an absolute pleasure and I'm excited to defend these titles and we look forward to earning a shot at those NWA World Tag Team titles!" (The Dirty White Boys make their way out) Anthony: "Ok ok….let's not get ahead of ourselves here boys! We should be wearing those belts right now and once we beat you for them, it will be US getting a shot at the World tag team titles!" (Sir Oliver Humperdink leads Akio Sato and Tarzan Goto out to the interview area) Hump: "You boys got your shoulders pinned by these two pretty boys, meanwhile they snuck past my guys on a technicality…..they didn't beat us." Denton: "Technicality? You threw salt in their eyes because you knew your boys were about to lose!" Hump: "Shut your stinkin' mouth, chump! You couldn't GRAPPLE your way out of a wet paper bag!" (Les Thatcher comes out) Les: "I kind of figured this might happen. The fact is you're both right. Terry Taylor and Tom Zenk beat BOTH of you last Monday night so one doesn't deserve a title shot anymore than the other….so here's how we'll settle this. Monday night, Sato and Goto will face the Dirty White Boys and the winners of that match will get a tag title shot against the champions later in the night." Anthony: "Fine with us!" Hump: "Finer with us!" (All the heels storm off) Taylor: "Fine with us too." Zenk: "Yep." ======================== COMMERCIAL BREAK ======================== MATCH #4: Savannah Jack/"Sweet Brown Sugar" Skip Young defeated Randy Watson/Eddie Wilson when Young pinned Wilson with a sunset flip off the top rope As Savannah Jack and Skip Young were celebrating their victory in the ring they suddenly were attacked from behind by The Hangmen, Bobby Jaggers and Dirty Rhodes! They beat on them for a few moments until The Highwaymen hit the ring and attacked The Hangmen and they brawled around ringside and back up the aisle and out of sight! ========================= (Gordon Solie brings out Magnum T.A. and Wendell Cooley) Solie: "It's nearly time for our main event, who will be facing Blackjack Mulligan here tonight." Cooley: "I'll be more than happy to face him, Gordon." Magnum: "Wendell, I'd really like to get my hands on him after what he did to me and my buddy Dusty last week." (Les Thatcher comes out) Les: "Guys, I think it's time we reveal the 'high stakes' for this week's match but before we do that…..do you want to let everyone know who your partner is going to be?" Cooley: (looks to the fans) "I don't know…..do you guys wanna know who our partner is gonna be?" (Crowd roars) (Cooley and Magnum point to the aisle---'Back in the Saddle' by Aerosmith plays as 'Nature Boy' Buddy Landel comes strutting out to a huge ovation) Solie: "I wouldn't believe if I wasn't seeing it with my own eyes." Landel: "Gordon, you better believe it baby, never fear cause Budro is here! I want to thank the fans for making the 'Bring Buddy Back' campaign a success and I want to thank Wendell Cooley for signing off on my return and I'm here to make Ronnie Gossett and Mr. Olympia's life a living hell!" Solie: "Now, I don't want to be the party pooper here but Magnum, have you and Wendell ever considered this whole thing could be a ruse by Buddy and Gossett to set you two up?" (Buddy chimes in before either could respond) Landel: "Ok, first of all Gordon Solie…..it hurts my soul that you think so poorly of me but I understand that is on me. I've made it that way and I accept that. However, I promise you that this is no way a ruse on my part with anybody……Ronnie Gossett stabbed me in the back and ruined my life at the Great American Bash and if I live to be a 112 years old I'll never forgive him for it. Mr. Olympia Jerry Stubbs is my sworn arch enemy in life and I'd soon sit in a sauna in Hell with the Devil himself than EVER side with Stubbs on anything so I promise you and swear on my Mother that I'm completely one hundred percent genuine in my desire to be these guy's partner, and to further prove that, I humbly request that you PLEASE let me be the one to take on Flapjack Mulligan here tonight." Cooley: "I'm game if Magnum is." Magnum: "Sure, if you feel that strongly about it, Buddy. Sure, I'll step aside." Landel: "Thanks guys, I promise you won't regret bringing me back as your partner and we're going to make these guys pay for everything they've done!" Les: "Ok, so with that being said….let's run down the stipulations for this match, starting with the ones against you guys. Wendell if you lose, you will NEVER get another shot at the Southeastern championship. Magnum if you lose, you will lose your World Championship match at Beach Brawl and the person who pins you or makes you submit will get the shot in your place……and Buddy if you lose, you must leave Continental FOREVER with no chance of returning! (All three look a little apprehensive but nod in agreement) Now to the other side of the coin. If Ron Bass loses, he will lose the Southeastern Championship to whoever pins him or makes him submit. If Blackjack Mulligan loses, he must retire from professional wrestling…….and if Mr. Olympia loses he must completely unmask AND he loses the Continental Championship to whoever pins him or makes him submit!" (Olympia comes charging out along with Mulligan, Bass, and Duke Myers rolling Gossett in his wheelchair) Olympia: "Wait a damn minute! Everyone else has ONE THING that happens if they lose…but I have to UNMASK and LOSE MY TITLE??" Mulligan: "Retire? I just got here! That ain't happenin!" Les: "Guys, if you don't like the stipulations, it's real, real simple. Just don't lose." (with that Commissioner Thatcher walks away) Solie: "Blackjack, I suggest you head to the ring as we'll be ready for our main event right after these messages and after we run down the full card for this Monday in Montgomery." ============================== COMMERCIAL BREAK Gordon runs down the card for Montgomery Continental Championship Wrestling Monday August 2nd 1986 Montgomery Civic Center Montgomery, Alabama Bell Time- 7:30pm MAIN EVENT "HIGH STAKES" SIX MAN TAG TEAM CAGE MATCH If Wendell Cooley gets pinned/submits, he never gets another S.E.

Gossett & Duke Myers Mulligan entered the ring first and caught Landel as he was entering the ring and took control early on…..Mulligan worked over Buddy for a couple of minutes before charging him in the corner and catching a boot to the face that staggered him……as Mulligan staggered backwards, Landel swept his legs and locked him into a figure four leglock! Moments after Landel locked it in, Mr. Olympia and Ron Bass hit the ring and started putting the boots to Landel……Cooley and Magnum quickly hit the ring as well and it was a six man brawl! The "bad guys" powder out leaving Cooley, Magnum, and Landel standing tall in the ring. Solie: "Wow, I have to say, it's going to take some getting used to seeing Buddy Landel alongside guys like Wendell Cooley and Magnum T.A., I really hope I'm wrong but something about it still just doesn't feel right to me but time will tell.

I've said this before but I never thought I could ever enjoy anything involving Greg Gagne but this heel Gagne paired with Johnny V is working for me! Fun stuff! The Living Legend has a mystery partner to help him take those guys to "LarryLand"! I've been a fan of Zbyzsko, looking forward to his antics here in the AWA! Kazmaier felt great in theory for me but I fizzled out on ideas right out of the gate, this team with Rheingans has legs, glad he was able to head your way, because in reality teaming with a vet is the perfect scenario for him to learn and develop at this stage in his career. The Fabs continue to make themselves more hated trash talking the Rock & Rolls! Looking forward to those matches! Morrow does it again! "Wealthy" Wells...I love it! Nice win for Idol/Bockwinkel to put even more heat on their upcoming singles matches with Lawler/Wahoo.

Two loops, both with very solid cards! Count me in as being thoroughly entertained at the thought of Slick in the head dress dancing as a distraction! Slick is a manager that I think doesn't always get enough credit for how entertaining he was and you're doing a great job with him here in WSW! Killer Brooks was a staple in Texas, glad to see him active here and picking up wins. Funk and Slater make a helluva team!

Great show! I love that the Fabs continue to double down on being heels......leaving the fans no choice but to "boo" their once beloved Fabs! Big win for Charland here!! Colon beats Ito to a bloody pulp WWC style and seems to be losing it! I'll be interested to see where this leads! WOW! What a Main Event!! Cabin Fever get the win in convincing fashion in the cage! I can't wait to hear what Ox Baker has to say about this!

Great show, excited to see Medusa win the TV title!

Rocky Johnson is coming along here...looking forward to his eventual Clash with Ladd/Bad News Speaking of Ladd and Bad News they bring the heat as always on the mic again this week! I agree with Dragon, Tommy Rich is at home cussing his TV as Michael Hayes shows he equals him in the scumbaggery department by attacking his blinded best friend in the hospital while dressed as a Doctor....kudos on this segment! Heel heat at it's best. It will be interesting to see how Watts/the NWA react to this treachery. Damn....I was really pulling for Fergie. Fun way to play up Sheik's money case angle and a fun win for Reed Solid main event with a nice win for the World Champion but keeps Brody strong on TV. Great set of dark matches to send the live crowd home happy.

Continental Championship Wrestling CCW Tag Team Title Tournament Houston County Farm Center Dothan, Alabama Monday July 26, 1986 Bell Time: 7pm The Spoiler w/Dark Journey pinned Steve Gatorwolf with the claw hold CCW Tag Team Title Tournament Round 1: The Highwaymen (Bobby Duncum/Phil Hickerson) defeated Savannah Jack/Sweet Brown Sugar when Duncum pinned Jack after a shoulder breaker Terry Taylor/Tom Zenk defeated Akio Sato/Tarzan Goto w/Sir Oliver Humperdink by DQ when Humperdink got caught throwing salt into the eyes of Taylor Doug/Tommy Gilbert defeated Stud Stable (Robert Fuller/Jimmy Golden) when Fuller thought he had Doug Gilbert beat he started getting cocky and Gilbert managed to catch him with a quick school boy roll up for the 1-2-3! Fuller and Golden completely lost it!! They attacked the Gilberts after the match…..Fuller loaded his boot and kicked Doug in the crotch…..Golden attacked Tommy with a chair busting his head open…..They went after Doug again, referee Larry Brock tried to stop them but Fuller threw him over the top rope out to the floor, then they dragged Doug over to the ring post….Robert grabbed one leg and Jimmy grabbed the other and they rammed him crotch first into the ring post! Les Thatcher came down to ringside and suspended the Stud Stable for 90 days for this senseless post match attack on the Gilberts.

Les Thatcher came back down to ringside and threatened to suspend all three teams if they didn't stop fighting immediately…..the teams stopped fighting and left the ring. MAIN EVENT STEEL CAGE SIX MAN TAG TEAM MATCH Ivan/Nikita Koloff & Mr. Olympia w/Ronnie P. Gossett/Duke Myers vs. Magnum T.A./Dusty Rhodes/Blackjack Mulligan Despite being in a steel cage, the match is worked as a normal six man tag team match with the wrestlers tagging in and out with the referee inside the cage struggling to keep order. The match goes for about 26 minutes with the heels finally managing to take the heat on Dusty who can't seem to make the tag until he manages to hit a DDT on Olympia and starts to slowly crawl over to the outstretched hand of his partner Blackjack Mulligan…..he finally makes it over and just as he's about to make the tag……Mulligan blasts Dusty with big right hand to his already bloody head!!! As Magnum asks him, "What the hell are you doing??" Magnum is jumped by Ivan and Nikita Koloff who double team him! Mulligan comes into the ring and straddles Dusty and just rains down punches on him……nearly knocking him out completely…..Mulligan gets off of Dusty as Olympia has recovered and comes over to make the cover…..the referee hesitates then makes the count 1---2---3!! Ivan and Nikita have left Magnum in a bloody heap….the referee goes over to try and stop them from further attacking and gets rammed face first into the steel cage for his troubles. Mulligan locks the claw on his now former partner Dusty Rhodes as Wendell Cooley, the Armstrongs, and other babyfaces try to climb into the cage to make the save but are being kicked back down by the Russians and Mr. Olympia as Mulligan continues to clamp the claw hold down on the bloody head of the "American Dream". Les Thatcher comes down to the ring and takes the microphone and says if they do not stop the assault and leave the cage immediately, Koloff will be stripped of the NWA World Title, Olympia will be stripped of the Continental title, and Ivan and Mulligan will be fired. After some pleading from Gossett as well they stopped and exited the cage.

Great TV leading into this week's show, I really enjoyed Embry's promo! The NWA is putting on a united front against all these heels getting out of hand....I love it! Fun promo from Tojo and a great way to end the show and make me go buy a ticket to the show tonight! Jason the Terrible continues to impress each week. Can't wait to see Tyree challenge Shaska for the TV title! Dick Slater manages a win over the Gang....even if it was a DQ, it was still impressive he didn't go down in defeat like everyone else has so far. Nice win for the Fort Bragg Brotherhood over the Karachi Vice who had been on quite a roll recently. Embry retains! I'm sure he'll have plenty to say about it soon. Jumbo retains....I've enjoyed him being a heel champion with some honor....thanks for the explanation.

Continental Championship Wrestling TV Saturday July 24, 1986 Hosted by Gordon Solie Ring Announcer: Freddie Miller Interviewer: Joe Pedicino From the Von Braun Center in Huntsville, Alabama (The show opens with footage of Magnum T.A. nearly pinning Mr. Olympia for the Continental Championship until Ivan Koloff pulled out the referee followed by Nikita Koloff hitting the ring and attacking Magnum and ultimately hanging him over the top rope with his chain, it then cuts to Les Thatcher announcing to the live crowd that Magnum will be bringing in two mystery partners this week to take on Olympia and the Russians in a Six Man Tag Team Steel Cage Match then the opening montage rolls and we then go to our host Gordon Solie) Solie: "Hello and welcome once again to Continental Championship Wrestling, sanctioned by the National Wrestling Alliance, the oldest and largest sanctioning body in professional wrestling the world over. We've got a HUGE main event signed for you here tonight as "Wildcat" Wendell Cooley will defend the NWA Southeastern Heavyweight Championship against the man who defeated him last week in the 'bullwhip on a pole' match, "Outlaw" Ron Bass!" What a week it's been here in Continental Championship Wrestling, you just saw what happened in the Continental Championship match last Monday night between the champion Mr. Olympia and the challenger Magnum T.A….We'll talk more about that situation later in the program but right now I'd like to bring out Les Thatcher to discuss the situation from last week with Tommy 'Wildfire' Rich and the Continental Tag Team titles." Les: "We've got a video from NWA President "Cowboy" Bill Watts who will discuss the Tommy Rich situation and where things stand there. As for the Continental Tag Team titles, this Monday night in Dothan, there will be an eight team tournament to crown new champions, now originally since Bob and Brad Armstrong had already earned a title shot, the winners of the tournament were going to face them to decide the new champions but since Bob Armstrong was attacked last Monday night at the end of their match with the Stud Stable, we don't know how long Bob will be out of action but we do know he spent three days in the hospital following that 'spike piledriver' on the concrete floor. I'm still investigating who the two men in the masks and scrubs were that attacked Bob, I have my suspicions on who it was under those masks but I'm not going to say just yet who I think they were. Anyway, we'll reveal the eight teams and the first round matches a little bit later in the show tonight but right now, let's hear from Bill Watts." (VTR- Bill Watts is standing in front of the Mid South Wrestling backdrop) Watts: "Hello, Continental Wrestling fans it's good to be here on Continental television but I wish it was under better circumstances. For the past several months or so, Johnny and Tommy Rich have been two of the most disgusting individuals in the sport of professional wrestling, why just the things they said about the great state of Texas and the Von Erich family leading into the David Von Erich Memorial Tag Team Tournament was enough to make a preacher cuss but the actions of Tommy Rich on that television show last week when he applied a piledriver, one of the most deadly and dangerous holds in professional wrestling…..when he applied that hold to his own mother because she cost him a wrestling match may very well have been the most low down vile thing I've ever seen take place on a professional wrestling television program and I'm ashamed that it took place on a show sanctioned by the NWA. I've spent a lot of time in meetings this week with the NWA Board of Directors as well as Continental's own Commissioner, Les Thatcher and I'm going to be honest, there was some very serious talk about banning Tommy Rich from the NWA for life and I'm still not sure that wouldn't have been the best decision to be quite honest. However, it is our ruling that Tommy Rich is hereby suspended until he is able to pay a $100,000 fine in full. Now, I was sent some footage from last Monday night in Huntsville where two men dressed in scrubs and masks seemingly trying to pass themselves off as the tag team, the Interns attacked Bob Armstrong and injured him coincidently with a piledriver. You could somewhat see in the video but it's been confirmed by ringside fans that the man giving the piledriver had blond hair sticking out of the back of his mask, and his accomplice that helped spike Bob, had dark curly hair sticking out of the back of his mask. It is my belief that those two were Johnny and Tommy Rich under those masks….unfortunately at this time I can't prove that but if I'm able to prove it….BOTH men will be banned from the NWA for life! However, as of right now….since Johnny Rich did not actively participate in piledriving Peggy Rich and at this time we cannot prove he was one of the 'Interns', he is still eligible to compete in Continental Wrestling but the investigation into the incident during the Armstrong vs. Stud Stable match will be ongoing. I just want you fans to know that I'm currently working with the Board of Directors and the promoters of the NWA to get things under control and to stop all this craziness that's going on across the National Wrestling Alliance and I take personal responsibility for finding a way to resolve this since it's happened on my watch, you have my word that I'll do everything in my power to get things under control. Thank you for your support of the NWA and please continue to come out and show that support whenever any of the NWA promotions come to your town." (END VTR) Solie: "Well there you have it from the President of the NWA and Les, I've spoken to several wrestlers and fans who were there Monday night and most of them are pretty convinced those two 'Interns' were the Rich Cousins. As for that $100,000 fine, I seriously doubt that Tommy Rich has that kind of money laying around, and I'm pretty sure he can't borrow it from his mother so beyond putting on a mask and scrubs, we may have seen the last of Tommy Rich in the NWA." Les: "Gordon, I'm pretty darn sure they are right but unfortunately no one was able to see them without those masks to confirm that to be the case, but I can say this….if they were to show up again at a Continental Wrestling event…..any wrestler who can unmask them or provide photographic proof of their identity will be eligible for a shot at any championship they see fit or perhaps a cash reward whichever they find more favorable. As for the fine, I'm pretty sure you're right about Tommy not being able to pay it, I'm sure he has that kinda money in the bank being a former World Champion, but I don't see him being willing to pay that out." Solie: "Wow….what a blockbuster announcement that is! That will certainly motivate EVERYONE in the locker room to rat the Richs out if in fact they are the ones that are donning masks and portraying the Interns….Now, one more thing I'd like to get your thoughts on while your out here. Where are you at on the 'Bring Buddy Back' campaign?" Les: (Smiles) "I was kinda hoping you wouldn't ask me about that. So, apparently he's bought some more time tonight so we'll see how that goes but I spoke to Bill Watts about this in the midst of the Tommy Rich discussions and officially the NWA's stance is that Buddy lost the match and the stipulation is binding…..however……Bill Watts said that the NWA is always willing to listen to the fans and if we get enough feedback and fan support we'll take it under consideration…..but he also said since the match was against Wendell Cooley, if Buddy Landel's reinstatement went before the Board for consideration, ultimately Cooley would have to sign off on it for it to happen." Solie: "That should be interesting…..I know you said he bought some time for today but take a look at this footage from last Monday before the event in Huntsville where Buddy had a "bus" out in the parking lot and was campaigning to 'Bring Buddy Back', take a look." (VTR- What appears to be a Frito Lay truck with banners duck taped to the sides that read "Bring Buddy Back" is parked out in front of the Von Braun Center in Huntsville while Buddy Landel is walking around carrying a sign that reads 'Bring Buddy Back' and has a megaphone, he has a team of people handing out fliers, buttons, and bumper stickers as well….as he talks to people over the megaphone…here are just a few highlights: "Maam, you look like a nice young lady…how would you like a 'Bring Buddy Back' button to wear? How about a 'Jerry Stubbs Sucks!' sign to hold up when Special Olympia comes out tonight?" "Hey sir, did you know that it's a known fact that you could feed a third world country for six weeks off of what Ronnie P. Gossett had for lunch today?" "How many of you already knew that the 'P' in Ronnie 'P' Gossett stands for Porky?" "Did any of you know that Duke Myers USED to be a man??" "Ronnie Gossett has ate 4 Quincy's Restaurants out of business in the past two weeks." "Mr. Olympia wears a mask because he looks like the guy from the Dunkin Donuts commercial." "Boss Hogg on the Dukes of Hazzard was based on Ronnie P. Gossett and Duke Myers is Roscoe."--END VTR) Solie: "That went on for hours." Les: (Laughing) "Umm, yeah it did…Buddy is something else….but how about we go to the ring Gordon." Solie: "Great idea Les, let's see the now former NWA U.S. Jr Champion Larry Hamilton in action." =========================== MATCH #1: Larry Hamilton pinned Rick Dagless with a sunset flip (Post match- Larry joined Joe Pedicino at ringside) Joe: "Larry, last week you made your return to Continental and things just didn't go your way as Steve Regal won the U.S. Jr. title last Monday night." Larry: "He didn't win the title, Joe….he STOLE the title thanks to that little jezebel, Dark Journey! That's alright, I'm getting my rematch this Monday night in Dothan and this time I know what I'm up against…..and I promise you this time….things are gonna go my way!" ============================ COMMERCIAL BREAK ============================ (As return from the commercial break, Gordon is flanked by a familiar face and a not so familiar face) Solie: "I'm joined here by a young lady we haven't seen in a couple of weeks, of course I'm referring to Woman…..but this isn't who we saw you with before….Woman, who is this man?" Woman: "You just answered your own question Gordon…..he is Man. I am Woman. Things did not go right before Gordon." Solie: "You mean when Jimmy.." (Woman cuts him off by putting her finger over his mouth) Woman: "Gordon Solie, we must never speak of it…..I promised we would never speak of it. Things went wrong……they just went all wrong…..it was never supposed to be that way…..so now, we press the reset button." Solie: "The reset button?" Woman: "That's right Gordon, things got all messed up. Man wasn't here…..it didn't go the way it was intended….but now we shall set it all right. It's nearly time for the rebirth….the re-premiere……the return of……..LUSCIOUS!" (Woman strokes Gordon's cheek and he blushes as she walks away, Man puts his hand on Gordon's shoulder….then winks at him as he walks away…Gordon stares blankly into the camera) Solie: "Um, let's go back down to the ring." =========================== MATCH #2: The Dirty White Boys (Tony Anthony/Len Denton) defeated Randy Watson/Leonard Washington when Anthony pinned Watson after a double DDT! Post match promo with Pedicino: The Dirty White Boys promise to walk out of Dothan the new Continental Tag Team Champions, no matter what! =========================== (VTR- A voiceover says 'the following is a paid advertisement) Black & White footage rolls of Ronnie P. Gossett and Mr. Olympia with the following voiceover. "Ronnie P. Gossett is a known liar and a thief! One day while having lunch with his alleged best friend, Buddy Landel….Gossett stole four of Buddy's ten piece chicken nuggets while he stepped away to make a phone call…and then blamed it on a child at another table!! Mr. Olympia besides being a liar and a cheater is also UGLY….very, very ugly!! Jerry Stubbs' parents started putting a mask on him at the age of four so that other children wouldn't be scared to come near him…..he's worn one ever since!! These men are a menace to professional wrestling and polite society!! There's only one man who could rid Continental Championship Wrestling of these two abominations……that man is BUDDY LANDEL! Please do your part to ……BRING BUDDY BACK!!!" This message was paid for by the Coalition of Concerned Wrestling Fans who love and support Buddy Landel!" (END VTR) ============================= COMMERCIAL BREAK ============================= (As we return from the break, Gordon Solie runs down the card for Monday night in Dothan) Continental Championship Wrestling CCW Tag Team Title Tournament Houston County Farm Center Dothan, Alabama Monday July 26, 1986 Bell Time: 7pm CCW Tag Team Title Tournament Round 1: The Highwaymen (Bobby Duncum/Phil Hickerson) vs. Savannah Jack/Sweet Brown Sugar Terry Taylor/Tom Zenk vs. Akio Sato/Tarzan Goto w/Oliver Humperdink Stud Stable (Robert Fuller/Jimmy Golden) vs. Doug/Tommy Gilbert Scott/Steve Armstrong vs. The Dirty White Boys (Tony Anthony/Len Denton) NWA U.S. Jr. Championship "Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal w/Dark Journey vs. Larry Hamilton SEMI-MAIN EVENT The Finals of the CCW Tag Team Title Tournament to crown new champions! MAIN EVENT STEEL CAGE SIX MAN TAG TEAM MATCH Ivan/Nikita Koloff & Mr. Olympia w/Ronnie P. Gossett/Duke Myers vs. Magnum T.A./Mystery Partners ----------------------------------------------------- (As Solie finishes running down the card, Johnny and Davey Rich storm the desk) Solie: "Gentlemen, I don't have you scheduled to be out here right now." Johnny: "Oh, I'm sure you don't Mr. Solie but my cousin and I want to know why we aren't in the tournament for the titles that I was just wrongly stripped of?!?!" Solie: "Johnny, I don't make those decisions but I can only assume that the reason is that Davey just returned this past week." Johnny: "Savannah Jack and Sweet Brown Sugar are in it, they just got here! Who have they even beat? I'm the former tag team champion!" Solie: "Actually, from what I've been told….Savannah Jack and Skip Young beat yourself and Davey Rich this past week." Davey: "How dare you mention that Gordon Solie? That wasn't even an official match…..that was just thrown together….that should be stricken from the record and never mentioned again!" (Savannah Jack and "Sweet Brown Sugar" Skip Young approach the desk) Solie: "Gentlemen, it's good to see you but I must admit I don’t have you two scheduled to be out here right now either." Jack: "I understand Mr. Solie, and we mean no disrespect to you or this show……but we just wanted to come out here and tell these two chumps that you are exactly right….we're in this tournament because we beat THEM…..and if they want to get in the ring right here on the show….we'll beat 'em again!" Johnny: "Hold up one minute there Savannah Jerk! Are you telling us that you'll wrestle us and if we beat you then WE get the spot in the tournament in Dothan?" Young: "That's exactly what we're saying……so don't talk about it, boys! Be about it!" Johnny: "You're on! We'll beat you two….then plow through that tournament and win those titles! Then we're going to help Tommy raise the money to pay that fine!" Solie: "Ok guys, we're going to run this by Les Thatcher and if he sanctions it, we'll add it to tonight's matches. Right now, let's go to the ring and see Magnum T.A. in action!" ======================= MATCH #3: Magnum T.A. pinned Curly Jefferson with a belly to belly suplex in just under one minute (After the match, Joe Pedicino enters the ring to speak with Magnum T.A.) Joe: "Magnum, I'm honestly surprised to see you in the ring tonight after that vicious attack by the Russians last week that perhaps cost you the Continental Heavyweight title against Mr. Olympia." Magnum: "Oh there's no perhaps to it, Joe! I had Olympia beat with the belly to belly and that Continental championship was mine until those no good Russians stuck their nose in my business once again but things will be different in Dothan when….." (Ivan and Nikita Koloff along with Mr. Olympia are at the desk with Gordon Solie and cut Magnum off) Ivan: "That's big talk from a man who is standing in the ring all alone right now. I say, we don't wait for Monday…..we take you out now when your so called mystery partners aren't here to save you." Olympia: "Let's go boys!" (They start to leave the desk and heard towards the ring) Magnum: "Well Joe, I say we solve the mystery RIGHT NOW! Come on down here fellas and get you some!" (The lights go out for a moment….when they come back on, The Russians and Olympia are at ringside….and standing in the ring with Magnum are DUSTY RHODES AND BLACKJACK MULLIGAN…..Rhodes takes the mic) Rhodes: "Now din….let's get past tha talkin' baybay and let's get in here and handle bidness if ya will!" BJM: "What's the matter? You Soviet Sissies suddenly lose your nerve? Jump on in this ring and show us what you're made of!" (Nikita lunges towards the ring but is held back by Uncle Ivan and Mr. Olympia) Olympia: "Ain't nobody scared of you two Texans…..but we ain't getting paid tonight….we'll do it Monday in the cage where you boys can't run away!" Dusty: "That's what I thought….Mista Olympia….keep on talkin' and we may just have to 'Bring Buddy Back' to whip yo' a**!" (Crowd cheers) ======================== COMMERCIAL BREAK ======================== MATCH #4: WINNERS ENTER THE TAG TITLE TOURNAMENT Savannah Jack/Sweet Brown Sugar defeated Johnny/Davey Rich when Sugar pinned Davey with a sunset flip off the top rope! The Richs storm back up the aisle furious while Savannah Jack and Sweet Brown Sugar celebrate in the ring while the fans mock the Rich Cousins as they leave. ======================== (Back at the desk, Robert Fuller and Jimmy Golden join Gordon Solie) Solie: "I'm joined now by the Stud Stable who will be facing Tommy and Doug Gilbert in the first round of the Continental Tag Team title tournament." Fuller: (laughing) "I just wanna thank Continental for basically giving us a bye in the first round putting those stupid Gilberts in the ring with us. We've beat them Gilberts like a drum for weeks and weeks and they just don't know when to leave well enough alone….well Monday night in Dothan, we're gonna beat the Gilberts just like we did the Armstrongs last week in that Southern Street Fight!" Solie: "You mean that two guys in masks are going to come out and interfere and help you win this match too?" Golden: "Gordon Solie, you sure do have a smart mouth on you….has anyone ever told you that? I have no idea what you are referring to…..nobody helped us! We beat those Armstrongs half to death in there and Robert whipped Bob Armstrong so bad that those two can't even be in the tournament this week!" Fuller: "I don't know who those guys were….and frankly I don't care! It was a street fight, which meant anything goes…..we can't help it if so many people hate the Armstrongs that they decide to come out and piledrive them on the floor…..but all that matters is I pinned Bob Armstrong….WE won that match, just like we're going to win this tournament on Monday night in Dothan and we will be the new Continental Tag Team Champions….and that's all there is to say!" Solie: "Well, thank goodness for that. Let's go down to the ring for our main event, the Southeastern title match." =========================== MATCH #5: MAIN EVENT NWA Southeastern Heavyweight Championship "Wildcat" Wendell Cooley vs. "Outlaw" Ron Bass w/Ronnie P. Gossett & Duke Myers As Cooley steps through the ropes, Bass attacks him and the match is on! The match is a wild back and forth match up with neither man keeping the advantage for very long! After several minutes Cooley manages to catch Bass with a boot to the gut and signals for the bulldog! Duke reaches in and grabs Cooley's leg as Gossett distracted the referee while still in his wheelchair at ringside…Gossett convinced the referee to get of the ring and assist him….meanwhile, Cooley jumps out of the ring and hits Myers with a flurry of punches!! Suddenly from out of nowhere….MR. OLYMPIA runs down and rams Cooley's head into the ring post and then rolls him into the ring, before running back up the aisle! Bass quickly covers Cooley….as Gossett screams for the referee to get back into the ring…..the ref slides in and counts ….1….2…3!! We have a new NWA Southeastern Champion!! "Outlaw" Ron Bass!! Bass celebrates with the title belt as Cooley rolls out of the ring with his head busted wide open from being rammed into the ring post by Mr. Olympia. Solie: "I can't believe what just took place here….Mr. Olympia just cost 'Wildcat' Wendell Cooley the Southeastern title! Gossett clearly had a plan in place here….this is terrible. Well, I'll tell you one thing….if it comes down to it, I think Wendell Cooley might be willing to sign off on 'bringing Buddy back' after what just took place here tonight….but maybe I'm wrong. Fans, join us again next week for Continental Championship Wrestling, for Joe Pedicino….I'm Gordon Solie saying, So long from the heart of dixie!"

Lawler vs. Idol is always gold, looking forward to this! The Beasts vs. Cabin Fever in the cage is going to be brutal! Can't wait to see who manages to come out on top Dream Machine is going to have his hands full with the Superfly but I have faith in him. Rock & Roll vs. The Fabs is the Ultimate 80's tag team feud! This will sell out anywhere you book it! Morrow is nothing but class taking care of his buddies medical bills. I'm impressed and amazed at how much mileage you've gotten out of this character.....love it! The Great Gagne did it! The TV Champ!! Loving him and Valiant together! I'm a big Johnny V fan from back in the day! These two working with Estrada is going to be fun!

Michael Hayes doing what he does best....cutting a money promo that turns up the heat....even blind I wouldn't want Gordy that pissed at me! Whenever you think Carl Fergie is down and out for good in this game, he pops up somewhere else and is back after that money! I'm not betting on him bit I wish him luck lol. I don't think Gary Young is ready to step up to Gorgeous Jimmy like this but we'll see. Brody gets a little revenge but I'm sure he's still looking for some redemption against Nikita! Stacked card for Baton Rouge!

Another fun house show loop, great win for Tyree Pride and Sullivan has to be pissed he can't get his golden spike back! Karachi Vice are building momentum! Awesome main event!!

Great job on the first two episodes! You've certainly captured the feel of SMW right out of the gate. Excited to see Downtown Bruno already being established as a top heel manager! Ron Wright managing the Stomper is as it should be....Stomper is well known in this territory and will be a top star! Looking forward to seeing Madril play a babyface here....though I hope someday down the road to persuade for a trade to bring him back to CCW and his evil ways! Off to a great start looking forward to Summer Blast!
