Race vs Tully is a definite Take My Money match.

The King vs. The Universal Heartthrob is a super hot feud and can't wait to see the National title match.

Hacksaw and Herc have all the makings of an epic, bloody feud. Well done on the strong tag division as well.

Pacific Coast Wrestling Show from the UCSB Event Center, Santa Barbara, October 24th Robbie Brookside vs. Hector Guerrero A very fast paced match where Brookside gave Hector a real run for his money until he was ultimately pinned with the Guerrero Clutch Vic Steamboat vs. Randy Rose Steamboat was able to prevail over the veteran rose with a flying cross body press Jeff Jarrett & Dan Severn vs. Chavo & Mando Guerrero A thrilling tag match where Jarrett and Severn held their own against the Guerrero Brothers until Chavo was able to catch Jeff in a German Suplex for the win Owen Hart, Brian Pillman, Keiichi Yamada & Hiroshi Hase vs. Tracy Smothers, Jack Victory, Chris Candido & Al Snow Tonight, Owen Hart led his fellow Snowbirds into war with the Hollywood Knights. And what a war it was, with the ref struggling to maintain control and both teams looking at different points like they would take the match. It looked like things would go to the Knights when Smothers had Victory hold Owen in place for a savate kick. But Owen was able to dodge out of the way and Smothers kicked Victory instead. While Smothers tried to apologize to Victory, Yamada took advantage of the distraction by rolling up Smothers while Owen and Pillman held off Victory, giving the win to the Snowbirds. Smothers and Victory were clearly arguing all the way back to the locker room, while Candido and Snow could be seen whispering to each other behind their backs. Barry Windham, Mike Rotunda & Tom Magee vs. The Hart Foundation & TNT At San Diego Battleground, Tom Magee will team with Scott Hall to face the Hart Foundation for the Golden State Tag Titles, but tonight he would be working with his Brigade colleagues Windham and Rotunda to face the Harts along with TNT. The result was an epic match, including a duel of kicks between Magee and TNT, as well as Magee hitting a spectacular Thrust Kick on Neidhart that sent the Anvil flying out of the ring. The MVP for Gary Hart's men was once again Bret Hart, who had showdowns in the ring with both Windham and Rotunda that had the fans reeling. The match ended in a 20 minute time limit draw leaving the crowd craving more of this matchup. Pacific Television Title Match : Big Bubba Rogers © vs. Brian Adams While Big Bubba has been pretty much steamrolling over all challengers since winning the TV title, the big Hawaiian proved to be quite a considerable challenge for him. He came the closest of all challengers so far to knocking the Louisville Slugger off his feet as he rocked him with big punches and clothesline. Unfortunately, while the ref was ordering Jim Cornette not to interfere, Chris Adams sneaked into the ring and knocked down Brian Adams with a superkick to the back of the head. Big Bubba followed up with a big splash to put an end to the American Ninja's challenge. While Cornette and Bubba left the ring, cackling all the way, Chris Adams and TNT proceeded to continue the attack on Brian Adams until Vic Steamboat rushed out and ran them off. Steamboat then helped Brian up and back to the locker room.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the LA Sports Arena, Los Angeles, on ESPN / TSN Pacific Super Cards, October 23rd Owen Hart vs. Mr. Hito The Japanese veteran really took it to Owen, but the young Snowbird prevailed with a reverse flying body press Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Joel Deaton The Beast From The East pinned the tough Texan with a slingshot splash The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) vs. The Bomb Squad (Chris Candido & Al Snow) Once again, the Thundercats tried to match their opponents in dirty tactics, but the Bomb Squad won when Snow pinned Scorpio with a Snow-Plex (wheelbarrow suplex) Black Tiger & Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) vs. Fit Finlay & The Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) An intense six man match that ended with Black Tiger hitting a tombstone piledriver on Steiner for the victory Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Midnight Express © vs. Badd Company Once again, Badd Company came out without Missy Hyatt and had trouble gaining any traction against the champs, who successfully defended their titles with a Double Goozle on Diamond Barry Windham vs. Ed Wiskowski Clearly the Polish Prince was under orders from his boss Buddy Rose to make sure Windham was in no shape for his title shot at San Diego Battleground, as Easy Ed seemed far more interested in trying to injure Barry than pin him. But Windham toughed it out and showed he could dish it as well as take it, finally putting Wiskowski down with a running Bulldog Headlock. Pacific Heavyweight Title Cage Match : Buddy Rose © vs. Tony St. Clair The Playboy had nowhere to run to in this match, and couldn't call on the help of the Playboy Club to bail him out. St. Clair bounced him around the cage, and it looked like the title would finally be his. St. Clair wound up for the spinning forearm smash, but Rose ducked, evidently hoping that St. Clair would end up hitting the referee like before. However, it was all a feint from St. Clair, who waited until Rose looked up and then clobbered him with the spinning forearm. Unfortunately, Rose went flying into the ref, so that when he went for the pin, there was no one to make the count. When he went over to help up the ref, a recovered Rose ambushed him with a low blow from behind. Rose followed up with the Inside Out Backbreaker and the ref made the three count, failing to notice that Rose had his feet propped up on the ropes. Will anyone be able to pry the title loose from the Playboy?

With the main event set, we can now announce the full card for San Diego Battleground. Once again, Pacific Coast Wrestling will be hosting a two night spectacular, this one coming from the San Diego Sports Arena. Night One Dan Severn & Jeff Jarrett vs. The Vice Squad (Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose) TNT vs. Leo Burke Brian Adams vs. Chris Adams Badd Company vs. The Bomb Squad (Chris Candido & Al Snow) Brian Pillman vs. Hector Guerrero Vic Steamboat vs. Joel Deaton Loser Of The Fall Leaves Town Match : Iron & Steel (Tony Atlas & Larry Cameron) vs. The Wild Bulls (Ed & Rick Gantner) California Title Match : Tracy Smothers (c) vs. Owen Hart Golden State Tag Team Title Match : The Hart Foundation (c) vs. Scott Hall & Tom Magee Pacific Television Title Match : Big Bubba Rogers (c) vs. Nick Busick Night Two Mike Rotunda vs. One Man Gang Tony St. Clair vs. The Great Muta Brickhouse Brown vs. Jack Victory Elimination Style Three Way Tag Team Match : Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) vs. The Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) vs. The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) Black Tiger vs. Fit Finlay Loser Leaves Town Match : Bam Bam Bigelow vs. The Masked Avenger Eddie Gilbert vs. Bob Orton Keiichi Yamada & Hiroshi Hase vs. Chavo & Mando Guerrero Ron Simmons vs. Stan Hansen Pacific Tag Team Title Match with the loser of the fall leaving town (Big Bubba Rogers banned from ringside) : The Midnight Express (c) vs. British Steel (Steven Regal & Robbie Brookside) Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Buddy Rose (c) vs. Barry Windham

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Olympic Auditorium , Los Angeles , on ESPN / TSN, Steven Regal vs. Dennis Condrey British Steel and the Midnight Express are headed for an epic showdown at San Diego Battleground. The loser of the fall of that match will be forced to leave Pacific Coast Wrestling, which means that one of those two teams will be no more , not just in PCW but anywhere. This had to be at the top of both competitors minds as Steven Regal and Dennis Condrey squared off in a singles match. Young Regal brought his considerable technical skills to the fray, catching Condrey in several rollups and submission holds. But Condrey was able to bring his own deep well of cunning experience, always finding a way out of any trap, by hook or by crook. This proved to be the deciding factor as Condrey was able to block an attempted Regal-Plex and hook Regal in an inside cradle for the one two three. Not a good omen for San Diego Battleground and British Steel may well be worried for their high stakes match. Eddie Gilbert vs. Randy Rose Gilbert has been doing battle with the Crazy Gang, most notably with "Cowboy" Bob Orton. Tonight, he would face one half of the Vice Squad in "Ravishing" Randy Rose. While Rose was quite a handful for "Hot Stuff" to deal with, the former Pacific Heavyweight Champ was ultimately able to take the win when he caught Rose coming off the ropes and hit the Hot Shot. But as he was going for the pinfall, Bob Orton came out and started jawing with Gilbert's manager Missy Hyatt. Hyatt wasn't going to take any of his guff and actually slapped his face when he went to far. An enraged Bob Orton grabbed her by the wrist , and Missy had a few moments of pure terror before her man Eddie came storming out of the ring to her rescue, chasing Orton back to the locker room. Sooner or later, these two will have to have their ultimate showdown. Badd Company & Vic Steamboat vs. The Bomb Squad (Chris Candido & Al Snow) & Jack Victory Unsurprisingly, Missy Hyatt did not join her younger charges for this match, and the effect of that showed. Badd Company seemed unfocused and off kilter in this match, only tagging with each other and failing to bring Steamboat into the match. The members of the Hollywood Knights hungrily took advantage of that during the match, and Tanaka failed to notice Snow doing a sneak tag in to Victory. Victory blindsided Tanaka with a clothesline to the back of the head , then hammered on him with lefts and rights before executing the Victory Plex for the pinfall. A disappointing result for Badd Company and Steamboat, and Tanaka and Diamond seemed particularly dejected. Steamboat tried to give them a pep talk and be supportive , but Tanaka and Diamond didn't want to hear any of it. Larry Cameron vs. Ed Gantner Two other teams locked in an epic feud are the Wild Bulls and Iron & Steel, having been locked in a war with each other for much of the year. This singles match between two members of each team was a hard hitting power battle, with the two muscular grapplers throwing everything they had at each other. Gantner was incredibly close to taking the win when he went for the Bull Hammer (running forearm smash to the face), but Cameron blocked it with a boot to the chest, then followed up with the Harlem Hammer (running double axehandle to the back of the head and neck). A hard fought win, but one gets the feeling that the final battle between these two teams is coming up fast. Battle Royal for a Pacific Heavyweight Title shot at San Diego Battleground : One Man Gang, Stan Hansen, Ron Simmons, Barry Windham, Tony St. Clair, Ed Wiskowski , Shane Douglas, Steve Blackman, Brian Knobbs , Rick Steiner, Brian Adams, Chris Adams, Vic Steamboat, Joel Deaton, Mr. Hito, Nick Busick, The Great Muta, Brickhouse Brown, Brian Pillman, Hector Guerrero The main event had incredibly high stakes, with the winner getting a shot at the Pacific Heavyweight Title at San Diego Battleground, currently held by "Playboy" Buddy Rose. Brian Adams and Chris Adams immediately went after each other, which ended up costing them as Nick Busick and Ed Wiskowski took advantage and used their focus on each other to toss them from the ring. Several wrestlers tried to gang up on the One Man Gang, trying to get him out early, but the big 747 would not go out so easy, fighting off his attackers and throwing out Steamboat and Brickhouse. Tony St. Clair had a good night, eliminating Ed Wiskowski, Rick Steiner and Brian Knobbs, but Muta caught him with a blast of the green mist to the face before spin kicking him out of the ring. An impressive elimination but he took to much time gloating over it, leading to Douglas and Blackman hitting a double dropkick to send him flying out of the ring. The two members of Black Gold worked well together, also eliminating Joel Deaton and Mr. Hito, but Stan Hansen put an end to their run with a double lariat. It eventually came down to a final four of One Man Gang, Stan Hansen , Ron Simmons and Barry Windham. Two of the biggest men in the Crazy Gang versus two of the biggest men in the Brigade. After several minutes of vicious brawling, Hansen had Simmons set up for elimination when he went for a big shoulder tackle. But Simmons was able to grab him when he was hit, and both men went tumbling out of the ring together. It was now down to Gang and Windham. Windham did his best, but the huge Gang had such an overwhelming size advantage that it was hard to make a dent in him. Gang battered the Sweetwater native and got ready for the killing blow when he whipped Windham hard into the corner and came in for an Avalanche. But Barry dodged out of the way at the last second, and Gang crashed chest first into the corner. Barry took advantage of the momentum and hurled Gang out of the ring. Barry Windham was the winner! The tall Texan was triumphant and would go on to challenge for the Pacific Heavyweight Title at San Diego Battleground. The other members of the Brigade rushed out to the ring and congratulated him as the fans cheered him on.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from McArthur Court, Eugene, October 10th Nick Busick vs. Chavo Guerrero After a tough battle, The Man From Powerhouse Hill was able to catch Chavo in a Spinebuster Slam for the win Jeff Jarrett vs. One Man Gang Jarrett had the fans solidly on his side and put up a brave fight but was overwhelmed by the big 747 who pinned him after a front layout suplex Black Tiger vs. Al Snow A fast paced and exciting bout which Tiger won with a gutwrench suplex followed by a Tombstone Piledriver Dan Severn vs. Fit Finlay Two of the toughest men in PCW threw down in a hard hitting bout that ended up in a double countout with both men slugging it out in the aisle Pacific Light Heavyweight Title Match : Chris Candido © vs. Pat Tanaka An extremely competitive bout that ended when Candido ducked a Tanaka spin kick and countered with a leg sweep, followed by a legdrop and running senton to successfully defend his title Scott Hall, Tom Magee & Brickhouse Brown vs. The Hart Foundation & TNT A very heated battle that went to the Brigade when Magee caught Neidhart with a thrust kick to the jaw California Title Match : Tracy Smothers © vs. Steven Regal Young Regal really got the crowd going and looked like he might just pull off an upset win for the title when he had Smothers set up for a Cradle Suplex. But Smothers was playing possum and lured Regal into a DDT to remain the champ

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Portland Memorial Coliseum , Portland , on ESPN / TSN Pacific Super Cards, October 9th Brian Adams vs. Mr. Hito Adams beat Hito with a spinning backbreaker Leo Burke vs. The Masked Avenger Burke was out for vengeance but the masked man proved to be too much power to overcome and the Avenger pinned him after an Avalanche in the corner Vic Steamboat vs. Chris Adams Adams won by DQ when Brian Adams came out and attacked him. While Steamboat was clearly not pleased with the result, after the match he gave a long talk to Brian Adams and then patted him on the back before leaving the ring. Keiichi Yamada vs. Hector Guerrero Yamada was going for a brainbuster, but Hector blocked it and was able to trap him in the Guerrero Clutch to score the pinfall Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) vs. The Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) Blackman clotheslined Steiner into a belly to back suplex by Douglas for the win Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Midnight Express © vs. The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) The Midnight Express freely used underhanded tactics throughout the match, which was no surprise. What was a surprise was that the popular Thundercats seemed just as willing to cheat back. Scorpio had Condrey's shoulders to the mat after a Sunset Flip out of the corner, but while the ref was escorting Smiley out of the ring, Bobby Eaton broke up the pin with a diving clothesline on Scorpio, then put Condrey on top to get his team the one two three. Barry Windham vs. "Mean" Mike Miller These two have had some intense battles, and this one was no exception. But Windham seemed to especially have a fire in his belly, and wound up flattening Miller with a Western lariat to pull out an impressive victory. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Buddy Rose © vs. Tony St. Clair Rose won by DQ when he ducked an attempted spinning forearm smash and St. Clair accidentally hit the ref. Rose was laughing when they announced the result, but stopped laughing when a furious St. Clair chased him out of the ring and back to the locker room.

Hot PCW New Bulletin : The main event of the next Pacific Wrestling Showcase will be a 20 man battle royal. The prize for the winner? A Pacific Heavyweight Title match at San Diego Battleground!

"I'm Steve 'Do It, To It' Cox .... and I just don't give a damn!"

Wikipedia has Steve Cox retiring in 2006, and he is working in places like WCW, GWF and UWF-i into the 1990s.

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Portland Sports Arena, Portland , on ESPN / TSN , October 8th TNT vs. Matt Dyson Last week, Brian Adams found himself kicked out of Gary Hart International and subsequently attacked by a mysterious facepainted man. This week , Gary Hart came out and introduced that man as his newest protégé, the Puerto Rican firebrand known as TNT. Young Matt Dyson was probably wishing that he was making his debut on a different week, as TNT brutally and effectively dismantled him with a series of chops and kicks before putting him down for good with a whalloping spin kick. An impressive debut, but he had best be on his guard, because you know that big Brian Adams is going to be out for vengeance. Brian Pillman vs. Mando Guerrero The former Cincinnati Bengal has had several exciting matches with Hector Guerrero, but tonight he would be facing another Guerrero, Mando. Mando did everything he could to ground Flyin' Brian with some takedowns and submission holds. But Pillman has learned a lot in his short time and was able to roll through or break out of these holds, and it didn't take long for him to take to the sky. He peppered Mando with his trademark aerial moves before pinning him following the Air Pillman. A satisfying win for Pillman, however you know he is looking for just one more match with Hector Guerrero. Pacific Television Title Match : Big Bubba Rogers © vs. Brickhouse Brown Ever since his controversial win over Bam Bam Bigelow for the Pacific TV Title, Big Bubba Rogers has been an unstoppable juggernaut. No one has come close to taking the belt from him. The popular Brickhouse did his best, but Rogers would not be denied, catching him with a Big Bubba Slam for another dominating victory. After the match , he and Jim Cornette , along with the Midnight Express, gathered in the ring. Frank Bonnema joined them. Bonnema : Well, Jim Cornette, you certainly seem to be full of yourself today. Cornette : Well, Freewheelin' Frank, I have every right to be. The Midnight Express are the Pacific Tag Team Champs, my man Big Bubba is the TV champ, and no one is even close to taking the gold from us. Camp Cornette is on top of the world and no one can stop us n- … Cornette is cut off by the sound of "Living After Midnight" by Judas Priest. playing over the arena PA. Cornette and his men are initially furious, but then start laughing when they see Robbie Brookside and Steven Regal, the members of British Steel, come to the ring, looking mad as hell and not about to take it anymore. Cornette : Well, well , well … if it isn't George and Andrew, fresh from guesting with Elton John at Live Aid! How can we help you, boys? If there is something bugging you, Big Bubba will gladly wake you up before you go go! Brookside : Jim Cornette, every time we get close to winning the Pacific Tag Titles, you send this big clot *pointing at Big Bubba* into the ring to pull your fat out of the fire. Well, at San Diego Battleground, that comes to an end! We have request in with the PCW board of directors to get us a title match, and Big Bubba will be banned from ringside. The Midnight Express immediately seem anxious, with Big Bubba remaining his usual impassive self, but Cornette calms them down and turns to British Steel. Cornette : Now, now, boys, we both know that will go nowhere. My mother's lawyers will have that injunction tied up until hell freezes over. I need Big Bubba for my own personal protection from these yahoos in the audience. But I am feeling generous, so I will make a little deal with you. I am sick of looking at you , week in and week out, and I never want to see you again. And I don't want you going to some other territory and crying about how the big , mean Midnight Express cheated you out of the titles. I want your team done for good. So I will agree to your conditions. We will defend the titles and Big Bubba will stay back at the locker room … on one condition. If you lose the match, whichever one of you loses the fall … will be gone from Pacific Coast Wrestling! British Steel will be no more! One of you will have to go somewhere else, while the other one will be forced to stay behind and live with the shame of their failure! What do you say, boys? There follows some intense discussion between Brookside and Regal before they make their reply. Regal : Well, Jim Cornette, we will accept your conditions, but only with one condition of our own. Your stipulation will also apply to your own team. If the Midnight Express lose, the loser of the fall will be forced to leave Pacific Coast Wrestling! Some more frantic chatter among the Midnight Express before Cornette responds. Cornette : You drive a hard bargain. But it is worth it to me just so I don't have to see your stupid faces again. I have full confidence in my men that there is no chance of you winning. You're on! Eddie Gilbert & Vic Steamboat vs. Bob Orton & Joel Deaton Gilbert and Steamboat have fought hard against the men from the Crazy Gang and have just gotten the word that they would be facing Orton and Deaton, respectively, in singles matches at San Diego Battleground. Neither team wanted to look weak before their high profile battles, so they both went all out in this match, and it seemed at different points like either team could take the match. It came down to skullduggery on the part of the Crazy Gang, as they took advantage of a distraction of the referee to blindside Steamboat with a double lariat to take the win. A tough loss for Missy Hyatt International, but they are focused on getting the win back at San Diego Battleground. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Buddy Rose © vs. Shane Douglas Shane Douglas has learned a lot in his time in the Pacific Coast, both from his mentor Leo Burke and his partner Steve Blackman. Tonight, all that education would be put to the test as he got his shot at the Playboy's Pacific Heavyweight Title, and he was determined to make the most of that opportunity. He was very aggressive with the champ, and Rose seemed somewhat caught off guard by the fighting spirit of the young Pennsylvania native. Rose certainly knew how to cut off some of Douglas' offense by digging into his considerable bag of tricks, but Douglas just kept battling back. Shane's youthful high spirits got the better of hi when he went for a running cross body on Rose, only for the Playboy to counter with a rollover and, with his feet on the ropes, get the tainted pinfall. While Douglas may not have won the title, he certainly had won a new level of respect from the fans.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Kelowna Memorial Arena, Kelowna, October 3rd Dan Severn & Jeff Jarrett vs. The Vice Squad (Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose) Severn beat Rose with a takeover suplex Ron Simmons vs. "Mean" Mike Miller Simmons won with a running spear Barry Windham, Tom Magee & Scott Hall vs. The Hart Foundation & The Great Muta The highlight of this match was a long exchange between Windham and Bret Hart. Hart ultimately won the match for his team when he countered an attempted neckbreaker by Magee with a lightning quick Russian Legsweep. Eddie Gilbert vs. Bob Orton Gilbert caught Orton coming off the ropes with a Hot Shot for the victory Pacific Television Title Match : Big Bubba Rogers © vs. Mike Rotunda Rotunda was still showing the effects of the earlier attack by One Man Gang, but put in a valiant effort before being pinned by the champ after an Avalanche in the corner Iron & Steel (Tony Atlas & Larry Cameron) vs. The Wild Bulls (Ed & Rick Gantner) Another hard hitting bout between these two heated rivals that ended when Cameron went for the Harlem Hammer (running double axehandle to the back of the head and neck) on Ed Gantner, only for the Wild Bull to duck and come back with the Bull Hammer (running forearm smash to the face) to get the win California Title Match : Tracy Smothers © vs. Owen Hart Owen hit a flying cross body off the top rope to the outside on Smothers, then was able to make it back into the ring to beat the count and get the win by countout. Smothers remained California champ.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver on Pacific Super Cards on ESPN / TSN , October 2nd Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) vs. The Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) Douglas caught Steiner with a belly to belly suplex for the win Ron Simmons & Brickhouse Brown vs. Stan Hansen & Joel Deaton Hansen pinned Brickhouse after hitting the lariat The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) vs. Brian Adams & Chris Adams Once again, Brian Adams wrestled the bulk of this match for his team, but this time it was because Chris Adams refused to tag in. Chris Adams and Gary Hart were berating Brian Adams the whole time, but the American Ninja put in a game effort against the former Golden State Tag champs, up until Chris Adams finally came into the ring, only to hit his own partner with a Superkick, right into a rollup by Smiley for a Thundercats win. Chris Adams and Gary Hart continued to verbally abuse Brian Adams even after the end of the match, until Brian had enough and grabbed them both by the throat. Unfortunately for him, at this point a mysterious man in face paint charged the ring and nailed Brian with a crescent kick. He, Chris Adams and Gary Hart proceeded to put the boots to Adams. When this happened, the Thundercats bailed out of the ring, leaving Brian to his fate, but soon Vic Steamboat, Shane Douglas and Steve Blackman ran out to rescue the big Hawaiian, sending Chris Adams, Gary Hart and the mystery man running out of the ring. Who is this strange new cohort to Gary Hart International. Nick Busick vs. The Masked Avenger The Man From Powerhouse Hill did his best to try to avenge his mentor Leo Burke, but the huge Masked Avenger was able to take him down with an over the knee backbreaker to get the win. Brian Pillman vs. Hector Guerrero Another fast paced classic from these two that Pillman won when he trapped Hector with a crucifix counter to an attempted clothesline Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Midnight Express © vs. British Steel (Steven Regal & Robbie Brookside) While Cornette distracted the referee , Big Bubba Rogers entered the ring and hit a Bubba Slam on Brookside, leaving him to be pinned by Bobby Eaton Tony St. Clair, Black Tiger & Vic Steamboat vs. Budy Rose, Ed Wiskowski & Fit Finlay Finlay had Tiger set up for a Tombstone Piledriver, only for Tiger to reverse it into his own Tombstone and score the victory

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Victoria Memorial Arena, Victoria, on ESPN / TSN, October 1st Black Tiger vs. Ben Morgan After making his first appearance in a tag match with Tony St. Clair, the mysterious Black Tiger makes his singles debut tonight. The masked man was all over the rookie Morgan, tying him in knots with a serious of weardown holds and flummoxing him with super fast flying moves. He finally drove him to the mat with a Tombstone Piledriver and got the pinfall. The British Invasion has gone through a lot of changes, but the addition of Black Tiger might well help them break into the upper ranks of PCW. Mike Rotunda vs. One Man Gang Another relative newcomer to Pacific Coast Wrestling is the One Man Gang, and he has been pretty much mowing through anyone he has faced. Mike Rotunda was a game challenger and did everything he could, but nothing he attempted was able to put a dent in the big 747. In a desperation move, he tried to get him up in a Samoan Drop, but the Gang's towering mass was too much for the Syracuse letterman , and the two crashed to the match. Gang was able to get up and hit two elbowdrops, followed by a running splash for the one two three. That was not enough for the Crazy Gang member, as Percy Pringle tossed him his chain. One Man Gang looked like he was going to do some serious damage on Rotunda, but then a cheer went up from the crowd as Barry Windham, making his return, charged out and sent Gang out of the ring with a dropkick to the back. Windham hovered protectively over Rotunda, and Gang looked like he was going to get back in the ring, but Pringle ushered him back to the locker room. It looks like Windham is drawing a line in the sand and is determined that the One Man Gang's rampage goes no further. The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) vs. Chris Adams & Brian Adams While Gary Hart's men have had some wins over the Thundercats, the American Ninja's headstrong attitude is clearly grating on both Hart and Chris Adams. Once again, he tried to shoulder the bulk of the action in the match, and while he landed some big moves on his smaller opponents, you could see him getting some dirty looks from his manager and teammate. His newfound confidence got the better of him when he was beating down Smiley in the corner, but had failed to notice that he had tagged in Scorpio. Scorpio came in with a top rope Sunset Flip, and with an assist of leverage from Smiley, he held Adams' shoulders to the mat for the count of three. Brian Adams was downcast after the match, and Hart and Chris Adams kept berating him all the way back to the locker room. Badd Company vs. The Bomb Squad (Chris Candido & Al Snow) In a very short time, The Bomb Squad has become one of the most exciting teams in the crowded PCW tag ranks. In spite of Candido's bratty attitude, their high speed, high risk style has captured the attention of he fans who love their dynamic in ring ability as much as they hate their insufferable disposition. Tonight, they would be facing another exciting team, Badd Company (who were surprisingly out without their manager, Missy Hyatt). The two teams engaged in an incredibly quick paced match, which led to the fans nearly gasping for breath as they tried to keep up with the action. It looked like it would go to Badd Company when they had Snow set up for their Thrust Kick/German Suplex combo. But Candido intercepted Diamond before he was able to hit the Thrust Kick, and Snow took Tanaka down with a legsweep. He then followed up with a Wheelbarrow Suplex that scored the pinfall. After that impressive win, the Bomb Squad are clearly exploding to the top. Interview : Frank Bonnema stands in the ring Bonnema : Ladies and gentlemen, my next guests have suffered some setbacks lately in Pacific Coast Wrestling … the Five Man Army. The crowd cheers as the Five Man Army head to the ring, but the Army are clearly not in a jovial mood. Leo Burke looked miserable, while Bam Bam Bigelow, Nick Busick, Shane Douglas and Steve Blackman looked equally grim. Once they got to the ring, Burke asked Bonnema for the microphone. Burke : Thank you, Frank, I can take this from here. There's something I need to say to the men in front of everyone. * The Army give him their full attention * Army, face it. I blew it. I didn't listen to you and I trusted the Masked Avenger, and it cost us. I was betrayed by him and he left my lying in the middle of the ring. And now, Bam Bam is no longer the television champ because of him. I screwed up, and if you guys want to say "I told you so" … well, now is your chance. I sure deserve it. Bam Bam looks to the others, who nod their heads, agreeing that he will speak for all of them. Bigelow : Leo, no way we are going to do that. The Army is not an "I told you" kind of team. You made a mistake … well, so have the rest of us. No sense beating yourself up over things you can't change now. You trusted someone and it turned out badly. Well, you trusted us too. Hell, you took a chance on me, a yahoo from Asbury Park, and I will always be thankful for it. Burke : Well, thank you, Bam Bam. That is very generous of you. Bigelow : None of that, boss. We're a team. We're going to move forward as a team and take care of business. The Masked Avenger stabbed us all in the back, and we are going to make him pay. If it is the last thing we do … we are going to run the Masked Avenger out of Pacific Coast Wrestling! Steven Regal vs. Dennis Condrey British Steel have been hot on the heels of the Pacific Tag Champs the Midnight Express, but Jim Cornette's men have been thus far able to keep the titles out of their grasp. While Regal's partner Robbie Brookside was by his side for this singles match, Condrey was backed up by Bobby Eaton, Jim Cornette, and Cornette's huge bodyguard Big Bubba Rogers. With all of these distractions at ringside, it was difficult for Regal to get much traction in the match, but he certainly did his best. Unfortunately, when the action spilled out to ringside, Cornette was able to draw the attention of the referee while Big Bubba hit the Bubba Slam on Regal. Regal was not able to make it back in the ring, leading to a countout win for Condrey. Brookside helped his partner up and the two were livid at the result, but Cornette's men didn't seem to care, cackling all the way back to the locker room. Tony St. Clair vs. Ed Wiskowski Someone else gunning for PCW gold is Regal and Brookside's British Invasion stablemate, "Tough" Tony St. Clair. He is hot on the trail of the Pacific Heavyweight champ Buddy Rose, but tonight, he would have to face the Playboy's closest ally, the big "Polish Prince" Ed Wiskowski. Easy Ed was in no mood to trifle and threw plenty of big bombs as he was clearly out to hurt St. Clair. But they didn't call St. Clair "Tough" Tony for nothing, and the Englishman weathered out the storm and started throwing bombs of his own. He was ultimately able to hit the spinning forearm smash to knock out Wiskowski for the victory. No one is going to get in St. Clair's way on his path to the Playboy

An excellent start for the new Florida promotion. Nice to see that, years after I first paired them, the Glamour Boys are still making an impact Kazaharu certainly seems like he will be a major player for Akbar's crew. You definitely have the start of a first rate tag division, I certainly wouldn't want to meet the Highwaymen in a dark alley.

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Portland Sports Arena, Portland , on ESPN / TSN , September 17th One Man Gang vs. Ben Morgan Last week, One Man Gang made a big splash with his first appearance in Pacific Coast Wrestling by attacking Barry Windham. This sent shockwaves throughout PCW, and young Ben Morgan was clearly terrified to be facing the big 747. His fears were proved well founded as Gang mauled him like a bear before putting him out with a front layout suplex. But Gang and Percy Pringle were looking to make an example of Morgan, and Pringle ordered Gang to give a literal big splash on the prone Morgan's back, to which Gang eagerly obliged. Morgan was taken out of the ring on a stretcher, and the other wrestlers in PCW have to be more than a literal concern. Ron Simmons vs. Joel Deaton The Crazy Gang may be on a high with the addition of the One Man Gang to their ranks, but Ron Simmons is clearly looking to bring them back down to earth. Still smarting from a tough loss at Phoenix Firestorm to Stan Hansen, Simmons is looking for redemption and Joel Deaton is the first one in his sights on the road to that goal. Deaton was certainly not going to lie down for the intense Brigade member, and the match was back and forth for much of its duration. Then it seemed like Simmons simply had enough and he opened fire on the lanky Texan with a series of mighty power moves, before he hit the running Spear to get the win. A big victory for Simmons, but you know he won't be satisfied until he finally is able to defeat Stan Hansen. The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) vs. Brian Adams & Chris Adams A feud has quickly blown up between these two duos, with Adams in particular seeming to want to prove himself. The American Ninja was quite impressive with how he was able to dominate his smaller opponents, taking up most of the time in the ring for his team. This started to annoy both Chris Adams and Gary Hart, who tried to get his attention to tag out, but either Brian didn't hear them or didn't care. This would come to haunt him as the Thundercats managed to catch him off balance with a series of double team moves, but he was still able to catch Scorpio coming off the ropes and drop him throat first onto the top rope. He then hoisted him up an impressive press slam before dropping him to the match and following up with the spinning backbreaker to put him away. Brian seemed quite enthused by his victory, but Chris Adams and Gary Hart could be seen exchanging unhappy looks as they left the ring. Tony St. Clair & ?? ?? vs. Buddy Rose & Fit Finlay With the news that Dave Taylor had to return to England to attend to family business, the fans were buzzing as to just who would be Tony St. Clair's partner in the match. Some of the questions were answered when St. Clair introduced the latest member of the British Invasion, Black Tiger. The masked wrestler had made a big name for himself in Japan, but was still pretty much a mystery to the Pacific Coast fans. Regardless, he was able to tie up Fit Finlay any time they locked up, leaving St. Clair to focus on Buddy Rose. The Pacific Heavyweight Champion was running scared from St. Clair for most of the match, and having his big equalizer neutralized by Black Tiger had clearly rattled him. This might explain why he was caught so flat footed by a surprise spinning forearm smash by St. Clair, which scored the Englishman the one two three. An important victory for St. Clair, but he still needs to get the pinfall in a title match. Pacific Television Title Match : Bam Bam Bigelow © vs. Big Bubba Rogers The Beast From The East has been a fighting champion ever since winning the TV title, seeing off a host of worthy contenders. But few have been as big and scary as the Louisville Slugger, Big Bubba Rogers. The personal bodyguard for Jim Cornette has destroyed nearly everyone who has crossed his path, and has come in hell bent looking to add more gold to Cornette's roster. Bigelow backs down from no challenge, and went all out against Big Bubba. Both of these men went at each other with an intensity that seemed like it could very well demolish the Portland Sports Arena. The ref did his best to maintain control, but wound up being crushed when he got between Rogers executing an avalanche on Bigelow in the corner. Bigelow was able to recover and take Rogers down with a clothesline, then followed up with a slingshot splash. Normally, this would be the end of the match, but the ref was completely out of it and unable to make the count. Bigelow went over and tried to help the ref regain consciousness. But then, out of nowhere, the Masked Avenger entered the ring and ambushed Bigelow from behind. He brutalized Bam Bam with nasty elbow smashes and slams. Cornette seemed caught by surprise , but got his man out of the ring while the Avenger did his damage, cackling all the while. When the Avenger had finished and left Bigelow a crumpled heap in the ring, only then did Cornette have his man go back in the ring and make the cover. By then , the ref had recovered enough to make the three count, and just like that, Big Bubba Rogers was the new Television champion. The crowd was shocked and disappointed, both that their favorite had lost his title and that he had lost it in such an ignoble manner. Can anything stop the rampage of the Masked Avenger?

Never turn your back on those dirty Rich Boys. Glad to see Jerry Stubbs in the main event, always thought he was an underrated worker.

Excellent work as always. Can't wait to see who Poffo's mystery opponent is!
