Personally, even if we're only 6 at this point, it's not like we haven't had this situation before. And we're a solid core six so I don't really see an issue at the moment. Ever since I joined last year, some people came and went so I'm not worried about that. I'm sure we're gonna fill some other slots eventually. As for the DJ Peterson situation, it would be highly hypocritical of me to even be against him being used on Gene's roster, given the similar situation happened to me merely weeks ago with Jos LeDuc & Floyd Creatchman. So, I'm absolutely 100% for this.

Not sure how much truth there is to this but apparently, Anthem wants to move Impact Wrestling to Canada in a permanent basis - probably based in Toronto, it figures. And given the stigma attached to the company because of the TNA days in Orlando, I'm assuming that they'd want to do this ASAP.

Yeah, Samu has been that one obstacle that Rick Martel hasn't been able to really solve yet. He definitely has his number and he needs to overcome this once and for all if he wants to beat Ric Flair for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship!

Soon, there will be no more jobbers left for Nikita to send off on stretchers!

Really excited about the rebirth of World Class!

You're all set!

Could've been worse. You could've lost Eddy Guerrero or Tully.

NWA Lutte Internationale TV Taped at CHLT-TV Studios, Sherbrooke, QC Broadcasted September 21st, 1985 -Guy Hauray and Édouard Carpentier welcome the viewers to this week's show and they officially announce that a new NWA World Women's Champion will be soon crowned and Lutte Internationale will be the hosts of the Women's Division, as they'll feature the best women wrestlers in the world. So, outside of this week's main event pitting Billy Robinson vs Super Strong Machine for the NWA Canadian International TV Championship, all of this week's show will feature women's matches that took place just last week. -The first match is from Sudbury, ON as Debbie Combs squared off against Luna Vachon. The broadcast team put over both of the ladies' family heritage as both ladies come from a wrestling background. But Combs' experience proved to be the determining factor in the outcome of the match as Luna Vachon, going for a back body drop, got countered with a neckbreaker from Combs, allowing her to secure the victory. -The second match is from the next night in Midland, ON as this time Luna Vachon teams with Penny Mitchell to take on the team of Velvet McIntyre & Donna Day. Luna gets some offense early and doesn't seem to be to distraught from her loss the night before against Debbie Combs. However, Velvet & Donna double team Luna whenever they can, forcing Luna to work most of the match. Eventually, Luna makes the tag with Penny Mitchell and hell breaks loose. However, it's a miscue between Luna & Penny that will cause their downfall as Luna accidentally nails Penny with a forearm, allowing Velvet to roll up Luna with her McIntyre Roll for the win with a hold of the tights! -The third and final women's match this week happens the following night in Bragg Creek, AB as Luna gets her chance to avenge her loss to Velvet McIntyre the night before. Velvet definitely had control throughout most of the match, and coming up with an answer every time that Luna mounted a comeback. Velvet tried to do a repeat of her win last night with her McIntyre Roll but Luna blocked her with a swinging neckbreaker. Luna then climbed on the top rope and hit her Diving Splash that was referred to as the Luna Eclipse by the broadcast win to score the upset win. Guy & Édouard mention that with this victory, Luna is now a name to be reckoned with throughout the whole women's division. -Before the main event, the broadcast booth plugs the next batch of women's action this weekend and those matches will be featured in upcoming episodes of NWA Lutte TV. In the meantime, next week's main event will feature The Great Samu & Prince Alofa Fatu, with their new manager "Pretty Boy" Floyd Creatchman against the team of now former Quebec Heavyweight Champion Armand Rougeau & Rick Martel. -Main event time as Billy Robinson challenges Super Strong Machine for the NWA Canadian International TV Championship. As expected, Sherri Martel is at ringside and before the match starts, she claims to be the best women's wrestler in the world and people are not worthy to see her compete. But when she does compete, she'll prove that she'll be the only choice as first NWA World's Women Champion. Super Strong Machine and Billy Robinson exchange momentum back and forth in a clash of styles between Robinson's catch-as-catch-can skills and Super Strong Machine's brute force. Robinson almost took the title away from the champ with his hammerlock DDT but the Machine kicked out. In the end, Robinson tried his finisher one time too many and Super Strong Machine rammed Billy shoulder first into the corner, allowing him to hit his Machine DDT to retain his title. The show ends with Super Strong Machine waving sarcastically bye bye to the audience, as the broadcast booth reminds us that his commitment with Lutte is almost finished and unless he loses the title prior to October 1st, he will return to Japan with it. À LA SEMAINE PROCHAINE SI DIEU LE VEUT!

Oh wow, thanks! Had no idea that Yoko was originally supposed to be a Headshrinker.

Am I the only one thinking that they were actually chanting "That's too far" to Jinder not because they were offended but just to mock him because the segment was flat out embarrassing to watch?

September 20th, 1985 Brantford, ON Super Strong Machine was supposed to defend his NWA Canadian International TV Championship on the show but he sent a message to the ring announcer via a letter saying that Brantford wasn't worthy of seeing him defend the title so he wouldn't be here tonight -The Creatchman Family (Prince Alofa Fatu & The Great Samu, w/ "Pretty Boy" Floyd Creatchman) beat The Andersons in 16:34 -Larry Zbyszko beat Shawn Michaels in 11:10 -NWA World Tag Team Champion Botswana Beast (w/ Eddy "The Brain" Creatchman) beat Raymond Rougeau in 17:15 -"Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal & Gino Brito beat The Bolshevik Revolution (Smirnoff & Zhukov) in 14:32 -Mad Dog Lefebvre (w/Frenchy Martin) beat The Iron Sheik in 17:38 Cage Match: The Guerreros (w/Mando Guerrero) beat Gilles "The Fish" Poisson & Ray Stevens in 38:48 -NWA Canadian International Heavyweight Champion Jacques Rougeau beat D'Artagnan the Clown in 34:12 in a non-title match. D'Artagnan tried to shock Jacques with a taser gun but Jacques was able to roll him up before he could! Postmatch, Jacques tried to reveal the identity of D'Artagnan by taking off his clown wig but D'Artagnan was able to escape before Jacques could get it off!

Your promotion is loaded, man. I wish this would've been a real promotion in those days back then.

The Great American Bash is a resounding success. Congrats to Magnum TA for winning the Best-of-Seven series and regaining the United States Heavyweight Championship! Although having known this would've gone that way, I would've switched the 2 victories that Mr. Electricity holds over Magnum TA. Oh well!

I kinda doubt that they planned 3 years ahead to have The Barbarian become Seone and join the Headshrinkers....Unless Rosey was planned to be a Headshrinker prior to his first run?

The aftermath of Music City Mayhem is pretty interesting. Battle lines have been drawn in the UWF!

Do I think it sucks that it's a house show? Sure. But at the same time, it's gonna be feel special for a lot of old school fans in Greensboro that night. And I also wouldn't be surprised if this turns out to be a WWE Network special after all. Who knows, we might be getting SuperBrawl back in February instead of Fastlane. Which would be so much better.

Like everyone, I'm devastated. It was so unfair for cancer to take away Bobby Heenan's greatest gift with his gift of gab. Now, he's just gone. There'll never be another manager like Bobby Heenan. The absolute greatest manager of all-time.

If you look up, I've already booked Hansen & Brody on October 4. I was also planning to book Brody on October 26 but I can always live with that since I hadn't reserved that date yet. Otherwise, you're all good for the other dates with both.

September 15th, 1985 Bragg Creek, AB WRESTLING UNDER THE TENT!!! -Steve Strong upsets Alexis Smirnoff in 11:48 -"Hangman" Bobby Jaggers (w/Sherri Martel) beat Baron Von Raschke in 12:48 -Luna Vachon beat Velvet McIntyre in 17:22 -Richard "Le Magnifique" Charland (w/Frenchy Martin) beat Thunderbolt Patterson in 11:25 -Mando Guerrero beat NWA World Tag Team Champion Botswana Beast (w/Eddy & Floyd Creatchman) in 10:35 -Armand Rougeau beat Marty Jannetty in 8:01 -The Strong Machines beat Rick Martel & D'Artagnan the Clown in 14:19. Matt Borne was scheduled to be Rick Martel's tag team partner but the ring announcer was told that The Great Samu & Prince Alofa Fatu had jumped Borne in the back and he was unable to compete in the match. Martel started the match by himself but midway through the match, D'Artagnan the Clown showed up and slowly made his way on the apron. Martel tried to tag D'Artagnan but instead of tagging him, D'Artagnan squirt the flower on his jacket.....AND BLINDED MARTEL WITH BLOOD! Martel was then easy pickings for the Strong Machines, picking up an important win!

I see what you did there!

September 14th, 1985 Midland, ON -For the 2nd time in a short span, "Mr. Electricity" Steve Regal upsets Magnum TA in 13:59. Postmatch, Magnum shakes hands with Regal. -Strong Machine #3 beat Alexis Smirnoff in 9:31 after an illegal switch with Strong Machine #2 -Velvet McIntyre & Donna Day beat Luna Vachon & Penny Mitchell in 12:50 -Steve Strong & SMW's Tony Falk score an upset win over The Sensationals ("Hangman" Bobby Jaggers & "Ace" Bob Orton, w/Sherri Martel) in 24:13 Guest Referee - Bruno Sammartino: Marty Jannetty beat Thunderbolt Patterson in 11:52 -The Guerreros (Chavo & Hector) beat Dino Bravo & Billy Robinson in 27:55. Robinson was constantly refusing to tag in with Bravo so Bravo "tagged" Robinson with a stiff right hand and left Robinson to fend for himself! NWA World Tag Team Championship: The Creatchman Family (Botswana Beast & Lord Humongous, w/Eddy "The Brain" Creatchman) beat The Rougeau Brothers in 54:37 to retain after Eddy Creatchman used his cane on Raymond Rougeau, allowing Botswana Beast to pin him.

NWA Lutte Internationale TV Taped at CHLT-TV Studios, Sherbrooke, QC Broadcasted September 14th, 1985 -This week's show opens with an interview from Rick Martel at the broadcast booth in regards to everything that happened since Heatwave. Rick Martel says that in the past few weeks, all he's been thinking about is getting his hands on Ric Flair and taking the NWA World Heavyweight Championship from him. But first, he needs to get revenge on those who betrayed him and that's where he's starting. He won't rest until Frenchy Martin and his goons pay for what they did do him. Martel is interrupted by "Pretty Boy" Floyd Creatchman and his Creatchman Family tag team, the Samoan SWAT Team of The Great Samu & Prince Alofa Fatu. Floyd tells Martel that even if he wanted to, so many people hate him that he'll never get his hands on Ric Flair and the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. Hell, Floyd doesn't think that Rick could even find himself someone right now to team with him to face his Samoan SWAT Team in a tag match. Martel says that there's a few people that he trusts and he will find that tag team partner to shut Floyd up. Floyd says he feels generous so he'll give him 2 weeks to find himself a partner and they'll meet in the ring. Until then, Floyd suggests Martel better watch his back becaue you'll never know who's next to stab him in the back! -This week's opening match features Alexis Smirnoff and newcomer to the territory, Matt Borne. A very physical match between both men and Matt Borne gives Smirnoff everything he can handle, pushing him to the very limit. But in the end, Smirnoff picks up the victory with a backbreaker. -Postmatch, a rather distraught Matt Borne is intercepted by Édouard Carpentier to get comments. When asked how he feels right now, Matt Borne asks Carpentier if he's ever felt nothing but pain. Pain inside all of his body. Pain in his mind. The only thing he thinks about is pain. When he's not feeling pain, he wants to dish it. Borne says he feels like a poet who had his tongue caught off and all he can do is suffer silently and put his emotions on paper. The difference is that compared to that poet, he still has his tongue. He still can express his anger. And now, what he wants to do is to unleash that anger to everyone who feels different than him. Matt Borne wants to make Lutte the most miserable territory in pro wrestling. Soon, everyone will understand how he feels and the only way he can ever feel happy is if everyone feels like him....miserable and manic. -The patriarch of the Creatchman Family, Eddy "The Brain" Creatchman" is coming at the booth next. Eddy says he's very proud of how his son Floyd has already taken charge and put Rick Martel in his place earlier in the show. Eddy also confesses that he received an interesting phone call from Mid-Atlantic suggesting that Eddy be trusted into getting rid of Rick Martel as a threat for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. The Brain says that it's because he's the smartest manager in pro wrestling and he has already found that problem solver. Eddy announces that starting in October, The Creatchman Family will welcome a new member. The most sadistic man in professional wrestling today. In October....ABDULLAH THE BUTCHER is coming for Rick Martel!!! -In a lenghty main event, Billy Robinson, accompanied by Sherri Martel, takes on Baron Von Raschke. Early in the match, "Ace" Bob Orton and "Hangman" Bobby Jaggers are joining Guy Hauray & Édouard Carpentier at commentary. Bob Orton explains that Sherri offered him the old Terry Taylor Sensational jacket because he was better fitting to be a Sensational than Terry Taylor ever was. As for "Hangman" Bobby Jaggers, he says that after Rip Oliver constantly disappointed Sherri Martel, she placed a call to him to replace Oliver in the stable and now, they're gunning for the new NWA Canadian International Tag Team Champions, the Vachons. As for the match itself, Robinson and Von Raschke contrasting styles make for an interesting bout. In the end, Billy Robinson scores the victory with a butterfly suplex. The Sensationals celebrate together post-match and Robinson announces that he's challenging Super Strong Machine to a match next week for the NWA Canadian International TV Championship. Will Super Strong Machine accept? Tune in next week! À LA SEMAINE PROCHAINE SI DIEU LE VEUT!

Just Hennig vs Rotundo would've sold me right there.
