Portland. Nice showcase for the Dragon. Sandman spikes the Sicillian. Finlay seems to see something in thThrillaz. In just one interview, you've given Scotty & Stevie a nicer interaction than I ever saw on TV. Awesome gets too show off. Corny and the Midnights get their payback. Sabu doesn't seem to care about winning the title. Night 2. Stormfront maintain their edge over their old friends. Wright brings victory home for the Hexagon. The Bulldozer is quite the get for the Collective. What a visual with the powerbomb on Bigelow. Busick overcomes the craziness with Sabu to retain against Candido. Condrey takes the Pacific champ the distance. Eugene. The Thrillaz show their new mentor what they can do. Scorpion stings Guido. Fastball crashes hard. The Gentleman is on a roll. The Dragons are flying high. Snow's shortcuts lead to a dead end.

I like the idea of the monthly TV specials. Gives you a nice clear goal to book towards without the hassle of ppv.

A mix-up in scheduling leads to the Southeast's first ever triple threat match. Team Texas an the Memphis Mafia nearly came to blows a couple times throughout the episode. I'd be curious to see how the live crowd reacted. I don't like the way RPG responded when Fuller mentioned selling the company. Such a shame Madril had to go to night court just before Armando & El Toro's match. Pistol Pez is fired up and rearing to get a hold of Kabuki.

WWF sends Masahiro Chono, Scott Norton & Kokina to AWA for King Kong Bundy, Col Debeers & Tom Brandi. WWF sends Paul Roma to WCW for Dan Spivey. Vader's loan is up so he returns to WCW.

The Bunkhouse Boys with an impressive debut. Tiger pounced on the Equalizer. Big night for Jammer as he's the last man standing and he ditches Vinnie. Colon proves once again nobody in the AWA does a no DQ match like him. Konnan lives up to Hart's hype. Oh joy...Greg's back...yay😒. Los Guerreros are vicious on the way to victory. Kerry survives Spivey but gets waylaid by a debuting Michaels. Gigolo Jimmy arrives as the real Heavenly Bodies claim the National tag titles. We just witnessed the Denver screwjob! You know things are dirty when Don f'n King is shaking his head.

Kudos to Sting for not waiting for Sid to get a title shot. Dillion's beef with Paul E leads to him losing his job. Speaking of whom, he pulls a major league dick move by messing with Muta's papers. At least we're getting a tournament out of it.

Love it!

Go for it.

A crazy six man opener ends with the Idol's living up to their name. Damn, Hangman takes out Jack. Jumbo and Saito go to a respectable draw. Payne serves Bruke up to Parsons on a silver platter. Gamma takes the TV title but David proves himself a real sportsman. The Bombers survive a bloody chain match. Muraco wins the match but Tully finds the dirtiest way possible to get out of giving him 5 minutes. Hansen takes down the monster Bundey. Garvin & Slater fight fire with fire in route to claiming the tag titles.

Love the idea of a full top 10 complete with honorary mentions. Savage cleans up being a part of ha;f the list as well as scoring wrestler of the year....and the most hated award but the Macho Man isn't gonna let that bother him.

UWF brings in the new year with Maeda finally taking his spot at the top of the company after beating the Soviet monster. Wonderful moment.

WWF sends Nailz to USWA for Greg Valentine. WWF releases Alofa and Curtis Highes to sign Biff Wellington & Keith Hart. Got a few more trades that i'll post in a couple of days as I don't want to spoil any upcoming matches.

New Year's Bash! January 1 1991 Madison Square Garden. Airing live on the MSG Network. On Commetary: Vince McMahon & Lord Alfred Hayes. "Chief" Wahoo McDaniel defeated "The Russia Bear" Ivan Koloff after turning an attempted "Russia Sickle" into a backslide. The Russian Pitbulls run down and jump Wahoo with Ivan joining in until Tatanka and the Navajo Warrior make the save. The Pitbulls seemed content to keep fighting but Ivan called for the retreat. "The Ace" Bob Orton defeated Scott "Flash" Morton with a lariat. High Energy (Koko B Ware & Tom Zenk) defeated The Samoan Headhunters (Alofa & Kokina) when Zenk pinned Alofa with a sunset flip off the top rope. Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake defeats Masahiro Chono with A little bit off the tope". WWF Tag Team Championship. The Ronin (Hiroshi Hase & Kensuke Sasaki)(c) defeat Power & Glory(Hercules & Paul Roma) w/"Sensational" Sherri Martel with "Senpukku" on Roma. Roma's neck was clearly bothering him and he needed help returning to the back. Loser Leaves Town New York Street Fight. Bad News Brown defeats Nailz with the "Ghetto Blaster" with a chain wrapped around his leg. WWF Intercontinental Championship. "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan(c) vs "TFhe Walking Natural Disaster" Earthquake w/"Le Commandant" Frenchy Martin ends in a double D.Q. Main Event. Eight man tag to determine whether Dusty Rhodes or Terry Funk gets to choose the stipulation for their WWF Championship Match at the Royal Rumble. "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes, "The Natural" Dustin Rhodes, The Ultimate Warrior & Tito Santana defeated The Texas Outlaws (WWF Champion Terry Funk, Manny Fernandez, Dick Murdoch & Black Bart) when Bart accidentally hit Fernandez with a clothesline leaving him vulnerable to a Warrior splash. As the Outlaws retreated to the back, Fernandez was reading Bart the riot act. Bart look apologetic, Murdoch looked sympathetic and Funk just looked pissed at the whole thing.

Mr Olympia ii gets his first big win but the Mercenaries try to make him pay for it but the day it saved by.....Mike Miller? I don't know where Armando found El Toro but he definitely earned his pay tonight. I imagine DJ is gonna start losing patience with Garvin some time soon. Credit to Rex King for trying to go it alone but Team Texas was just too much. Whatley and Kabuki weren't in the mood to listen to no zebra. Funk's trusty cowbell brings Team Texas the tag titles. The Memphis Mafia is here and they are taking on everyone! Huge pier-six brawl to close out the first Southeastern show if the new year.

Edmonton. R.I.P to the Bull. Trisha shows off her new team. The Money Train are still giving Finlay fits. Guido reminds everyone that big things come in small packages. Stormfront prove their point to the Citadel. Stevie's feeling the groove. Nice of Rose to check on Scotty even if it got interrupted by Piper's sales pitch to Candido. Alex earn his spot in the Hexagon. The TC's earlier attack costs Gordy the Submission title. Goodbye Robbie Z, hello RVD. The Thrillaz Cap off a night of successful debuts. LK us climbing the ranks. The OWC gets some karma courtesy from the tag champs. Martel puts down a game Condrey. Bigelow gets carried away and gets ko'd for his trouble. The Thrillseekers just made huge waves by beating the Midnights. Another Hart-Windham classic. Victoria. Guido continues to prove Vito was right to bring him in. What a finisher by the Thrillaz. Martel kills the party, at least for one night. Dragon is flying high. Sarge and Awesome have a wild one. RVD's roll continues. Vancouver. Malenko needs help to get an edge on Regal. The Foce still rules the Golden State tag scene. Severn shows Snow he still had some things to learn. The Midnights rebound to take the champs to the limit. Hart fends off another challenge by Dibiase. Kelowna. Regal aims to make Wright pay. Scorpio puts the chill on Guido. The Thrillaz get derailed my the Money Train.(ironic) Kawada shows he doesn't need a leg up to retain the title. Eddie just cut to the front of the line. Another rematch, another win for Douglas.

On this special New Year's Eve edition of WWF Prime Time "Mean" Gene Okerlund hosts the first annual Year End awards. Best PPV: WrestleMania VI Most Popular: The Ultimate Warrior Most Hated: Terry Funk Tag Team of the year: The Ronin Most Shocking Moment: Terry Funk Pildrives Dusty Rhodes on the concrete from SummerSlam. Best Champion(s): The Ronin Match of the year: The Ultimate Warrior vs Rick Rude, steel cage match at Summerslam Rivalry of the year: Rhodes family & allies vs The Texas Outlaws Wrestler of the year: Dusty Rhodes.

Shameful hos unprofessional some people ca be. Taylor still thinks he's the cock of the walk. DWB lives up to his name. Medusa shows there's no weak link in her team with Austin. The DC show they can hang with the champs. Seems Rich has found himself a new family. Savage closes out the year with his title reign intact.

Championship Wrestling clearly knows where the money is because PIP was all over the show, from verbally jousting with the commissioner to winning the main event an finally brawling with the top faces of the territory.

That opener was hilarious and another masterful showing by Alberto Madril -Attorney at Law. JYD is taking on all comers. Gotta hand it to RPG, between Kabuki, Killer Brooks, JJ Funk and now Embry he really has signed some of the bigger names from Texas. And if that wasn't enough we've got JC Ice threatening to bring in the Memphis Mafia. Southeastern fans got a treat watching the entire first round of the tag title tournament play out on TV. Taylor fends off Madril's interference and shows that he isn't done chasing Armando.

Another classic AWA recap. Can't wait for SuperClash.

Massive card heading to the Tokyo Dome to close 1990 with all the bangs.

Nice to see the Brigade having a good time. Dang, even being on a beach in Hawaii and seeing Tine in a bikini isn't enough to lift Scotty's mood. Piper's still finding ways to cause trouble though. I like a guy who dances for himself and nobody else. Keep on dancing Stevie.

Having JYD as the champ will go a long way to strengthening the USWA ties. Nice bookend having DJ successfully help her man in the first round only to accidentally cost him the finals. RPG found quite the killer in Kabuki. Alberto Madril - Attorney at Law is always on hand to assist his client.

(During a special Christmas Eve addition of WWF Prime Ttime, we get two more vignettes showing talent debuting in 1991) Nighttime on a grassy plain. We zoom in on a raging fire where Wahoo McDaniel stands a serious expression on his face. The shot widens and we see two more figures come into view. One is instantly recognizable as Tatanka, the other is a young native American man his face adorned with war paint. Wahoo gives a signal and the two rush each other. Tatanka clearly has the edge as the tussle about but the other man is tenacious and no matter how many times he's shoved away he gets up and comes right back. Finally he gets a hold of the right leg before lifting Tatanks off the ground and riving him down into the dirt. Wahoo gives another signal and the action stops. He approaches the two who stand despite their mutual fatigue. there's a brief silence before Tatanks breaks out laughing and slapping the younger man on the shoulder. Wahoo beckons the younger man over and presents him with a full feathered headdress. The three turn to face the camera, the very image of a united front. Blazing a trial in 1991...The Navajo Warrior! The camera slowly approaches a lone bull hauler. Suddenly the vehicle begins to shake about as muffled shouts can be heard. Shot of rodeos clowns running for their lives, Bull fighters whose reflexes were just a second too slow and even from the world famous running with the bulls, all showing what happens when a person is caught by a enraged Bull. As the clips play, the hauler shakes ever more violently, the bellowing getting louder and less human. Finally the the door of the hauler flies off and a large, bulky man wearing a bull helmet charges the camera, roaring in absolute fury. Charging into the WWF in 1991....The Minotaur! Tune in next week for the WWF year end awards!
