Badass... pulling the curtain back!

Two more issues to decide. First, who does he drop it to. Next, where and when does he drop it. My suggestion is once the successor is decided, any promotion in the NWA that wants to host the title change would then submit thier promotion and date with an explanation of why.

Haha!!!! OUTLAW

Doesn't Gordy with Hayes as a mouthpiece (of sorts) make more sense? No. I have never seen a touring champion use a manager. Hayes can talk and I think he is the best wrestler of the bunch.

Yeah, JHawk, you requested to be part of the NWA. Vote for President!!!

Jeff Jarrett vs. Matt Hardy vs. Drew Galloway vs. Eric Young vs. Bobby Roode (King of the Mountain) - Jarrett looks fucking OLD! - That ladder DDT was fucking stupid - The rules are so contrived I have no idea what the point of this match is. - OK, this was a clusterfuck … the triple powerbomb spot was dumb. - Galloway, Jarrett and Hardy completely botched the ladder spot where they were supposed to all fall down. - The piledriver on the ladder that didn’t break was stupid. - Man, I can’t get over the idea that Jeff Jarrett is a face. His fnisher still sucks. He still uses the stupid guitar. Not impressed.

Ethan Carter III & Tyrus vs. Bobby Lashley & Mr. Anderso - Anderson’s mic fucking up is hilarious. He has been horrible every time I have seen him live. I have about no faith this match will be entertaining. - Man… that double suplex by Tyrus… is Lashley still alive? - I am glad it didn’t last too long.

That makes no sense. You rallied for a credible, heavyweight champion. Bock is under the Central States roster which is an NWA member. I agree about his age though.

James Storm vs. Magnus - Both guys were trying really hard but for a brawl, Magnus had really weak brawling offense. Everything was light as a feather. - The big boot into the equipment to cause the monitors to go out in the arena was kind of dumb. - Christ, Magnus crashing into that table did not look good. I don’t mean aesthetically, I mean he could really be damaged after that. - OK… I thought the salt in the eyes was cute and even the first false finish … but then they did finisher overkill. - If Davey Richards is on a PPV and you told me one match went 5 minutes too long with ridiculous kickouts, I would put my money on the Richards match 93% of the time. - Storm wins

Austin Aries vs. Davey Richards - For a Davey Richards singles match, this wasn’t abd until they did the NJ exchanges. - Was that a frog splash double stomp? Fuck me. - Another lame as fuck finish with a rollup. - Match was fun and that is the highest compliment I Can give to a Davey Richards match.

Matt Morgan vs. Bram - OK, I liked the snake eyes reverse chokeslam by Morgan. - Eh… whatever. Bram wins.

Robbie E vs. Jesse Godders - OK, I liked the toss early on using the shirt. Good stuff from a pissed off baby face. - Nice fire, to use a shoe term, early on by Robbie E. - Man after the nasty flip into the stairs, digging Godderz offense… powerslam on the floor, pounding the chest, rubbing that forearm across the face and ear. - Shit, that dropkick had one foot nail him directly in the face, legit. - More work on the back after the showboating… bear hug, backbreaker - Man, Robbie E’s comeback sucked…. Laziest fucking comeback ever. Thank God it didn’t last long. - Dude…. Robbie’s “clotheslines” are Kane level bad. - Story of this match… Jesse on offense good, Robbie on offense, bad. - Shit finish with a reverse DDT gives E the match. That was lame.

In the immortal words of Thin Lizzy... The drinks will flow and the blood will spill And if the boys want to fight, you better let 'em

Agreed. If he asked 8 days ago, it seems like he would have dibs.

Ahhh ok. Let me think about the best way to do that. Right now, the 1983 project is serving as the info, trade, etc. board. Ince we start writing up shows and stuff, I think I can move those posts into an event only forum.

Before I give each promotion its own forum and spend all that time creating each forum, I want to see how dedicated people are to the project first.

Dude, anytime, you need to get rid of Pedro Morales for a few weeks, I want him for one of my tours.

That is an important question.... if Geigel or Jones & Ward do not become President, will they withhold TV time from other NWA members? If so, they are holding the Presidency hostage with vague promises of national exposure. If they will not withhold TV time, then it is not an advantage for the Presidency to have a national cable slot.

Add his tag work in Mid South, Tim. Not at the height of his best Memphis work but good enough to know he wassstill a good wrestler.

The world won't collapse if Harley race stays in Central states until the process plays out. Current President is Bob Geigel anyway.

Dude... let the voting processl play out. No rush.

Special thanks to Frank Valois and Joe Blanchard for helping Mr. Baba with his character development program.
