Rock vs Roman certainly doesn't happen at this year's Mania anymore. But nothing says it doesn't happen later this year or even at next year's Mania, after all, Rock did say he was in it for the long game. And if Seth's knee was holding up, Roman/Rock vs Cody/Seth in Perth would be a pretty awesome match to set the table for Mania.

I buy that for Vince, no doubt about it, but before Stephanie left for the 2nd time, the word going around was that she was universally loved by everyone. So, where's the truth here?

Honestly, TK would be a complete moron to have both Moné and Okada debut on the same show. The show is in BOSTON, Moné's hometown. If he has indeed landed Okada, you either debut him at Revolution or even the Dynamite right after. Don't overshadow Moné's debut.

This cannot be good for TNA going forward. I don't know what D'Amore could've done to justify getting fired weeks into a successful rebranding.

This is where bringing somebody like Kamille to be her muscle could help. As you said, you can then have her work as the Jimmy Hart type of heel (or "runt" as Gorilla Monsoon would've said) while Kamille could do the heavy lifting.

Maple Leaf Wrestling February 4th, 1989 (Brampton, ON) The episode opens with the announcer welcoming the audience to Maple Leaf Wrestling. The crowd is pumped up and ready for an action-packed evening of wrestling. Match 1: Matt Borne vs. Bob Bradley The first match of the night features a clash between Matt Borne and Bob Bradley. Both competitors show their skills in the ring, with high-flying maneuvers and powerful strikes. After a hard-fought battle, Matt Borne secures the victory with a devastating DDT. Backstage Interview: Lelani Kai Interviewer: Hello, wrestling fans. I'm here with the former WWF Women's Champion, Leilani Kai, who will face Misty Blue Simmes later tonight. Leilani, how are you feeling about this match? Leilani Kai: I'm feeling great, because I know I'm going to beat Misty Blue. Misty Blue is nothing but a flash in the pan, a lucky rookie who got a cheap shot at the title. She doesn't have the experience, the skill, or the heart to compete with me. Interviewer: But Misty Blue has been very impressive, defeating opponents like Linda Dallas, Kat LeRoux, and Black Venus. She also has the support of the fans, who love her patriotic spirit and her high-flying moves. Leilani Kai: The fans are fools, and so are you. Misty Blue's opponents were all second-rate wrestlers, and her moves are reckless and sloppy. She relies on gimmicks and stunts to hide her lack of talent. She's not a real wrestler, she's a circus act. And tonight, I'm going to expose her for the fraud that she is. Interviewer: Well, you certainly sound confident, Leilani. But what if Misty Blue surprises you and proves to be a tougher challenge than you expect? How will you handle that? Leilani Kai: There's no way that Misty Blue can surprise me, because I've seen it all. I've been in this business for over a decade, and I've faced the best of the best. I've wrestled in Japan, Puerto Rico, and all over the world. I've trained with the legendary Fabulous Moolah, and I've held the WWF Women's Title twice. I've been in the main event of WrestleMania, and I've been part of the Rock 'n' Wrestling Connection. I've done it all, and I've seen it all. Misty Blue is nothing new, nothing special, nothing I can't handle. She's just another obstacle in my path to glory, and I'm going to crush her like a bug. Interviewer: Well, there you have it, folks. Leilani Kai is ready for her match against Misty Blue Simmes, and she's not holding back. Will she be able to back up her words, or will Misty Blue prove her wrong? We'll find out tonight, in what promises to be a historic match for women's wrestling. Back to you at the broadcast booth. Match 2: Lelani Kai vs. Misty Blue Simmes The bell rings and the match begins. Lelani Kai, the veteran heel, charges at Misty Blue Simmes, the fan favorite babyface. Misty dodges and hits a dropkick, sending Kai to the ropes. Misty follows up with a clothesline, knocking Kai down. Misty goes for the cover, but Kai kicks out at two.

Kai releases the hold and goes for a suplex, but Misty counters with a small package. The referee counts, but Kai escapes at the last second.

Interviewer: You two have been on a winning streak lately, defeating some of the toughest opponents in the league. What is the secret of your success? Chris: Well, it's simple. We have the skills, the strength, and the synergy. We know each other inside and out, and we work together like a well-oiled machine. No one can match our chemistry and coordination. Sean: That's right, Chris. We also have the passion, the pride, and the perseverance. We love what we do, and we do it with excellence. We never give up, and we never back down. We always give our best, and we always aim for the top. Interviewer: Impressive words, gentlemen. But what about your opponents tonight? Damien 666 & Tom Zenk are also a very talented duo. How do you plan to deal with them? Chris: Damien & Zenk are nothing but a bunch of overrated, overhyped, and overconfident clowns. They may have some flashy moves and fancy outfits, but they don't have what it takes to beat us. They're all style and no substance. Sean: Exactly, Chris. Damien & Zenk are just a joke, and we're going to prove it tonight. We're going to expose their weaknesses, exploit their mistakes, and destroy their dreams. We're going to make them regret ever stepping into the ring with us. Interviewer: Strong words, indeed. Well, thank you for your time, Chris and Sean. Good luck in your match tonight. Chris: Thank you, but we don't need luck. We have each other. Sean: And that's all we need. Chris and Sean: Because we are The New Breed!

Winners : Chris Champion & Sean Royal (The New Breed) Backstage Segment: Raymond Rougeau and Mike Lozanski [The scene is a locker room, where Raymond Rougeau is sitting on a bench, wrapping his wrists with tape. Mike Lozanski enters the room, looking furious.] Lozanski: Hey, Rougeau! What the hell was that last week? You turned your back on Jim Neidhart, the man who took you under his wing and made you a star! Rougeau: Oh, look who's here. The loyal sidekick. The faithful follower. The pathetic lapdog. Lozanski: Don't you dare talk to me like that, you traitor! You stabbed Neidhart in the back, and for what? A cheap shot at the title? Rougeau: You don't get it, do you? Neidhart was holding me back. He was using me as his puppet, his pawn, his shield. He never cared about me, he only cared about himself. He was afraid of me, because he knew I was better than him. Lozanski: Better than him? You're nothing but a coward, Rougeau. You couldn't beat him fair and square, so you had to resort to what you did. You're a disgrace to this business, and to this locker room. Rougeau: You're the one who's a disgrace, Lozanski. You're a nobody, a loser, a nobody. You're nothing without Neidhart, and you know it. You're just jealous of me, because I have what it takes to be a champion. Lozanski: Jealous of you? Ha! Don't make me laugh, Rougeau. You're not a champion, you're a chump. And you'll find out soon enough, when you face me in the ring tonight. Rougeau: Oh, I'm shaking in my boots, Lozanski. You think you can beat me? You think you can avenge Neidhart? You're dreaming, pal. You're in way over your head. You don't have the guts, the skill, or the heart to take me on. Lozanski: Well, we'll see about that, Rougeau. We'll see who has the guts, the skill, and the heart. We'll see who walks out of that ring as the winner, and who crawls out as the loser. We'll see who's the real man, and who's the real coward. Rougeau: Bring it on, Lozanski. Bring it on. I'm ready for you. I'm ready to end your career, and to prove to the world that I'm the best. I'm ready to make you pay for your loyalty, your stupidity, and your betrayal. Lozanski: You're the one who's going to pay, Rougeau. You're the one who's going to suffer, to bleed, to beg for mercy. You're the one who's going to regret the day you crossed me, and the day you crossed Neidhart. You're the one who's going to wish you never stepped foot in this business, and never met me.

Winners: Jim Neidhart & Mr. Saito The episode ends with Neidhart and Saito celebrating their hard-fought victory, as Maple Leaf Wrestling bids farewell to its fans until next time.

The Montreal market was very different than nowadays, especially around that time, because you don't only need to cater to the English speaking people but most importantly the French-speaking people. You also have to understand the political and cultural ramifications in the sense that right up until what we call "La Révolution Tranquille" in the 1960s, anglophones were occupying the highest positions in society in Montreal while francophones were the run-of-the-mill typical journeymen. So yes, there were 2 sets of commentary teams and sometimes, the show would be a bit different, with some specific segments inserted and some match orders swapped out, stuff like that. As for the stuff in regards to Bravo, for instance, it always depends on the character. A Rick Martel as it stood around then, pre-Model days, would've been cheered regardless. However, Dino Bravo would've been cheered only in Montreal but would be a heel anywhere else. That was the particularity of the Montreal market when they ran Hogan vs Bravo at the Forum back then; Bravo always ended up being the babyface.
