Fort Bragg Brotherhood is my favorite team name. Nice to see the Glamour Boys making waves, glad that a pairing of my creation is still kicking around in another promotion. Chicky over Terry Funk has to go down as one of the biggest upsets in the whole project.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Selland Arena, Fresno, August 15th Shane Douglas vs. Bret Hart A close singles match between two tag wrestlers, Hart was able to block an attempted German Suplex and counter with a Russian Legsweep to defeat Douglas. Brian Pillman vs. Randy Rose "Flyin'" Brian clearly had the fans clearly behind him as he beat the former Pacific Tag champ with a top rope flying clothesline Mike Rotunda & Scott Hall vs. Brian Adams & Mr. Hito While Rotunda and Adams went at it fist and fire for most of the match, it was Hall who pulled out the win with a Gator Breaker (fallaway slam) on Hito Owen Hart vs. Jack Victory It was announced before the match that Owen would challenge "Mr. Hollywood" Tracy Smothers for the California Title at Phoenix Firestorm. To that end, "Hollywood" Jack Victory was clearly out to try to cripple Owen before his title shot. Hart showed the fire and skill that has made him a major fan favorite and pinned Victory with a reverse flying cross body press. Nick Busick vs. Big Bubba Rogers The Man From Powerhouse Hill and the Louisville Slugger had an out and out slugfest that ended in a double countout with both men brawling in the aisle Pacific Light Heavyweight Title Match : Chris Candido © vs. Pat Tanaka The second generation star really gave Candido a run for his money, to the extent that the champ took the low road, ducking a crescent kick and hitting a low blow on Tanaka before pinning the challenger with a cradle assisted by a fistful of tights. Pacific Television Title Match : Bam Bam Bigelow © vs. Jim Neidhart The Anvil gave the Beast From The East a considerable challenge , hitting blows and tackles that shook the ring, but Bigelow ultimately prevailed with a slingshot splash.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Cow Palace , San Francisco, on Pacific Super Cards, August 14th Vic Steamboat vs. Jimmy Del Ray Del Ray proved a wily and devious opponent for the younger Steamboat, but Vic scored the win with a Top Rope Flying Cross Body Press Barry Windham & Ron Simmons vs. "Mean" Mike Miller & Stan Hansen A knock down, drag out fight that the Crazy Gang won by countout when Miller hit an over-the-shoulder neckbeaker on Windham on the concrete Jim Duggan vs. Ed Wiskowski "Hacksaw" is determined to fight his was to the Pacific Heavyweight Title, and will get his shot at Buddy Rose at Phoenix Firestorm. Despite the Polish Prince doing his best to do as much damage as possible, Duggan was not to be denied, and pulled out the win with a Three Point Clothesline Dave Taylor & British Steel (Steven Regal & Rob Brookside) vs. Fit Finlay & The Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) A hard hitting battle between rival teams where Steiner was able to score a hard fought win by catching Brookside in a takeover suplex Brickhouse Brown vs. Mando Guerrero The popular Brickhouse scored something of an upset victory by pinning Mando after a top rope missile dropkick Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Midnight Express © vs. The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) Continuing their comeback, the Thundercats provided a considerable challenge to Cornette's men before Scorpio finally went down to a Double Goozle from the champs. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Buddy Rose © vs. Tony St. Clair St. Clair went all out against the champ and had Rose running scared, with the Playboy backpedaling through much of the match and "Tough" Tony landed some brutal shots. In the end, Rose took the low road and called in Fit Finlay to attack St. Clair, leading to a DQ finish. A disappointing end but Rose is not likely to continuing dodging St. Clair for long.

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Oakland Alameda County Arena, Oakland, on ESPN / TSN, August 13th Brian Pillman & Vic Steamboat vs. Bob Orton & Joel Deaton Pillman and Steamboat have never teamed before but have found common enemies in the Crazy Gang. For a pair teaming for the first time, they gave a good accounting of themselves, keeping their more experienced opponents on their toes for much of the match. Ultimately, Percy Pringle, the Crazy Gang's manager, took matters into his own hands , using his cane to trip Steamboat as he was coming off the ropes. As Steamboat staggered out, Orton and Deaton swiftly capitalized, blasting him in the back of the head with a double elbow smash. As Deaton went for the cover, Orton intercepted Pillman and the Crazy Gang got the three count, despite the protests of Missy Hyatt. A disappointing result, but Pillman and Steamboat would get their shot at revenge at Phoenix Firestorm, where they would be facing Orton and Deaton, respectively, in singles matches. Tom Magee vs. Hector Guerrero The younger generation of the Brigade have been having some intense matches with the Guerreros, and while they have suffered some losses, it has inspired the young men to up their game against the veterans. Tom Magee, possibly the least experienced member of the group, has a considerable reputation for athleticism and innovation, but has had to work on his in ring instincts. To that end, in this match, Magee reigned in his more spectacular moves, saving them for the right spots and to greater impact. The always cocky Hector was initially taken aback, but swiftly regrouped and the result was an exciting battle. To his credit, Hector kept a high degree of good humour throughout this match, seeming overjoyed to getting a challenge from this young upstart, climaxing in a battle of rollups that Hector ultimately won with a double leg cradle. A disappointing loss, but one where Magee had gained the respect of both Hector and the fans. Eddie Gilbert vs. Mr. Hito Gilbert is gearing up for his Tennessee Death Match with the Great Muta, the man who cost him his Pacific Heavyweight Title. But to get to that match, he first had to face off with Muta's stable mate Mr. Hito. Hito was determined to do as much damage as possible to Gilbert, sending him into Phoenix Firestorm as badly hurt as possible. Hito laced into Gilbert with kicks and throws, but Hot Stuff was in no mood to be anyone's punching back. After a while, he had enough and started to tear apart Hito, laying in some jarring haymakers before putting away the Japanese star with a vicious piledriver. After the match , Gilbert looked to punish Hito more with another Piledriver , but Gart Hart's bodyguard Brian Adams interposed himself between the two, and Missy Hyatt was able to persuade her man to back off. If one thing is certain, the Phoenix Firestorm match between Gilbert and Muta is bound to be explosive. The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) vs. The Vice Squad (Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose) This would be the first match back in a while for the Thundercats after Scorpio was taken out by a piledriver from Iron & Steel. At least it would have been, but in what is becoming a common occurrence, The Wild Bulls charged out and attacked the Thundercats. The Vice Squad wisely bailed, and it looked like the Thundercats' return would be cut short at the hands of the Gantner Brothers. But just when it seemed like all was lost, Iron & Steel, of all people, charged out and threw down with the Gantners. Atlas and Cameron slugged it out with the Wild Bulls, clearly looking for revenge from the attack a few weeks ago, but the Gantners swiftly exited the fray, swearing that they would come back for their own revenge. Atlas and Cameron then tried to help up Scorpio and Smiley, but were given a sideways look and a cold brush off. The Thundercats clearly want nothing to do with Iron & Steel, and given their past history together, who can blame them? Dave Taylor & Tony St. Clair vs. Buddy Rose & Ed Wiskowski Another man due for a big match at Phoenix Firestorm is Buddy Rose, set to defend his Pacific Heavyweight title against Jim Duggan. He certainly wasn't keen to risk his well being against the two double tough British grapplers, instead letting his closet ally Wiskowski take on the bulk of the action and only tagging in when he had to. Wiskowski plunged himself into the thick of the fray with relish, but even the big Polish Prince was worn down by the English duo, with St. Clair putting down Easy Ed with a jarring running elbow smash to the head. Rose may be concerned with Jim Duggan, but if he doesn't watch out, St. Clair could easily become the next challenger to his title.

Brutal finish to that tag title match. Doc and Teddy are not to be messed with!

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from McArthur Court, Eugene, August 8th Brickhouse Brown vs. Mr. Hito Brickhouse beat Hito with a swinging neckbreaker Brian Pillman vs. Brian Orton Orton caught Pillman in an attempted running cross body and reversed it into a vicious backbreaker for the win Barry Windham & Ron Simmons vs. "Mean" Mike Miller & Stan Hansen A knock down, drag out match where Windham and Simmons were finally able to put down Miller with a huge double clothesline Dave Taylor, Tony St. Clair & Robbie Brookside vs. Fit Finlay & The Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) Another intense battle between these two sides there Taylor and St. Clair pulled out the win with a double vertical suplex on Knobbs from the ring apron to the inside Bam Bam Bigelow & Eddie Gilbert vs. Chris Adams & The Great Muta A bloody war where Muta was able to spray Gilbert in the face with the green mist and followed up with a spin kick to get the one two three. Both teams kept at it after the match and after the were separated by security, it was announced that Bigelow would defend his Television Title against Adams in a falls count anywhere match, while Gilbert and Muta would square off in a Tennessee Death Match. 2/3 Falls Pacific Light Heavyweight Title Match : Chris Candido © vs. Hiroshi Hase 1st Fall : Candido pinned Hase with the Blonde Bombshell (flying legdrop) 2nd Fall : Hase pinned Candido with a Northern Lights Suplex 3rd Fall : Both men went to a 45 minute Time Limit Draw Result : Draw

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Portland Memorial Coliseum , Portland , on ESPN / TSN Pacific Super Cards, August 7th Owen Hart vs. Todd Morton Owen beat Morton with a reverse flying body press Scott Hall, Tom Magee & Brickhouse Brown vs. Chavo, Mando & Hector Guerrero Hall had Mando up for the Gator Breaker (Fallaway Slam), but Hector dropkicked Mando's back causing Hall to tip over, and Mando got the pinfall Mike Rotunda vs. Brian Adams Rotunda won by DQ after Adams attacked him with a Kendo Stick Pat Tanaka vs. Jim Neidhart Neidhart went for a shoulder tackle in the corner, but Tanaka countered with a Sunset Flip out of the corner for the one two three California Title Match : Tracy Smothers © vs. Jeff Jarrett Jarrett came close to winning the title on a number of occasions, but when it looked like he would trap the champ in a figure four, "Mr. Hollywood" grabbed a fistful of Jarrett's tights to force a roll up for the pin Leo Burke, Nick Busick & The Masked Avenger vs. The Midnight Express & Big Bubba Rogers The Masked Avenger once again changed up his ring gear, this time switching to black mask and gear with red trim. He didn't seem to show much interest in tagging in with Nick Busick, but when Leo Burke found himself in trouble, the Avenger was quick to tag in and ended up pinning Condrey with a crushing front slam. After the match it was announced that, due to the recent injuries suffered by Black Gold, their planned Pacific Tag Team Title shot at Phoenix Firestorm would instead go to Burke and the Avenger. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Buddy Rose © vs. Steve Regal Young Regal provided a considerable challenge for the Playboy, but Rose was able to block the Regal Plex with a nasty elbow shot to the face. He then followed up with the Inside Out Backbreaker to successfully defend his title.

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Portland Sports Arena, Portland , on ESPN / TSN , August 6th Tony St. Clair vs. Brian Knobbs The arrival of "Tough" Tony St. Clair has poured more fuel on the fire between then English contingent with "Hacksaw" Duggan and the Playboy Club. St. Clair was once again all poise and confidence against Dog Pound member Knobbs. Knobbs came after him with both fists flying, but could not find any gaps in St. Clair's defense. After a series of jarring takedowns, St. Clair stretched Knobbs with some painful leglocks and then put the finishing touch with the Floating Butterfly Suplex. With St. Clair on their side, the English wrestlers are going to be especially tough to keep down. Paul Diamond vs. Bret Hart Badd Company has been waging a concerted campaign to take the Golden State Tag Titles from the Hart Foundation. They have had some intense contests but tonight they would face off in singles action. Diamond went all out against Hart, scoring a number of near falls. In the end, the superior experience of Hart paid off, as he was able to duck under an attempted Reverse Flying Cross Body by Diamond. Diamond crashed hard into the mat and Hart came in with a clubbing elbow smash to the back of the head. He followed up with a piledriver and scored the pinfall. Dan Severn vs. Rick Steiner While both men are involved in their own separate tag team feuds, this match presented a unique matchup between two native Michiganders. While Steiner is known more for his brawling style with the Dog Pound, he, like Severn, has a considerable amateur background and was quite an accomplished grappler at the University of Michigan. This was a mostly technical bout but when Steiner came out on the short end of some exchanges, he started to take advantage of his considerable strength and started nailing some mighty clotheslines. He then got a bit cocky and went for one too many, which Severn ducked and capitalized with a takeover suplex. He swiftly followed by locking him in the Body Scissors Sleeper, and no matter what he did, Steiner could not escape. Steiner gave up the match and Severn had scored an impressive victory. Vic Steamboat vs. Joel Deaton Lately, Vic Steamboat has started to emerge from the shadow of his older brother and gotten a lot of favour from the PCW fans as a beloved underdog. Joel Deaton seemed impressed by none of this, trying to intimidate his smaller opponent. Steamboat refused to knuckle under and fired back with all he had. After a blistering series of exchanges, Steamboat was able to knock Deaton out of the ring with a Karate kick. He then went up top and hit a flying cross body press to the outside. Both men went down hard, but Steamboat was able to make it back in the ring in time to score a countout victory. Deaton was furious but Percy Pringle was able to talk him down, promising him another shot at the young Hawaiian. Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Midnight Express © vs. Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) This match never got a chance to get underway. As Black Gold were heading to the ring, they were attacked by the Wild Bulls. Just as they had recently with Iron & Steel, the Gantner Brothers laid a vicious beatdown on Blackman and Douglas. The Midnight Express seemed surprised by the interference, but when Leo Burke and the rest of the Five Man Army rushed out to try to rescue their comrades, Eaton, Lane and Big Bubba blocked the way. Eventually, Burke, Bigelow and Busick were able to break through the line and run off the Wild Bulls, but the time it took cost a terrible toll. Blackman and Douglas were badly hurt, and had to be helped to the back by the rest of the Army. Scott Hall & Tom Magee vs. Chavo & Hector Guerrero Gator and the Megaman have had a lot of momentum going for them, with them racking up impressive win after win. The Guerrero Brothers were determined not to be another notch in their score. While the Brigade members had considerable power and athletic ability on their side, the veteran Guerreros had a wealth of experience and guile at their disposal. They crafted a risky strategy of doing everything they could to make Scott Hall mad, hoping that his hot temper would drive him into making a mistake. Eventually Hall's anger got the best of him when he stopped to argue with the ref when being escorted out of the ring. This was enough distraction for Hector to trip up Magee when he was attempting a slingshot legdrop on Chavo. Chavo got back up and hit a running senton, getting a three count while Hector intercepted Hall from breaking up the pin. A disappointing loss for Hall and Magee. Let's see if they can learn from it and come back.

Gah, was listening to Jim Cornette when I posted this, he must have mentioned Dusty. Now corrected. Edit : He was talking about the passing of Dusty Hill, it was late and my brain doesn't work.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from McArthur Court, Eugene, July 11th Pacific Light Heavyweight Title Match : Chris Candido © vs. Norman Smiley Candido won the match by hitting a flying legdrop on Smiley. Scott Hall & Tom Magee vs. "Mean" Mike Miller & Stan Hansen Gator and the Megaman did their best against the veterans from the Crazy Gang, but Miller and Hansen were out for blood, and Hansen put down Hall with a crushing lariat. Nick Busick vs. Jack Victory The Man from Powerhouse Hill was able to score the three count over "Hollywood" Jack after catching him in a Spinebuster Slam Barry Windham & Ron Simmons vs. The Vice Squad (Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose) After what had happened earlier in the show, Windham and Simmons were out to avenge their Brigade brothers. The cunning of the Vice Squad kept them out of their clutches for a while, but eventually Windham and Simmons caught up with them, and scored a convincing victory with a flying double tackle on Del Ray Golden State Tag Team Title Match : The Hart Foundation © vs. Keiichi Yamada & Hiroshi Hase The Hart Foundation won by DQ after Badd Company , seeking revenge for the night before, raced out to the ring to attack them. Brian Pillman & Owen Hart vs. Bob Orton & Joel Deaton Pillman brought his Snowbirds partner Owen Hart into his feud with Bob Orton. Pillman got the win by pinning Deaton with a slingshot sunset flip California Title Match : Tracy Smothers © vs. Vic Steamboat After several impressive recent outings, the younger Steamboat brother earned himself a shot at Smothers' California Title, and he certainly was looking to make the most of it. Smothers was on the defensive for much of this match, and after a long battle, went to underhanded tactics to defend his title. As Steamboat was working over his leg, Smothers grabbled a fistful of tights to get a roll up and hold him down for the one two three.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Portland Memorial Coliseum , Portland , on ESPN / TSN Pacific Super Cards, July 10th Brickhouse Brown, Scott Hall & Tom Magee vs. Chavo, Mando & Hector Guerrero The younger members of the Brigade had a long, intense struggle against the veteran Guerreros, and it looked like it would go to the full 20 minute time limit draw. But within the last 30 seconds of the time limit, Hall was able to catch Hector with the Gator Breaker (fallaway slam) and score a hard fought pinfall. The Masked Avenger vs. Big Bubba Rogers The Avenger had changed up his gear somewhat for this match, going from all red gear and mask to red gear with black trim. These two big mastodons dropped some heavy bombs on each other, with neither man looking like they were going to give in. But little by little, it looked like the masked man started to chip away at Big Bubba. Too much so for Jim Cornette, who took advantage of the ref being knocked down to enter the ring and slug the Avenger across the back with his tennis racquet. It seemed to have all the impact of a mosquito bit on the Avenger, who whirled around and grabbed Cornette by the throat. Cornette sputtered and panicked for a bit, but soon the Midnight Express charged in to his rescue, and all of his men ganged up on the Avenger. Luckily for the Avenger, Leo Burke and Black Gold charged into the ring and scattered the Express to the four winds. Dan Severn & Jeff Jarrett vs. The Vice Squad (Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose) PCW's oddest couple had a tough battle against the former Pacific Tag Champs, but Jarrett countered an attempted DDT by Rose with an inside cradle and held him down for the one two three. Severn rushed into the ring and he and Jarrett celebrated their biggest victory yet as the fans cheered. Pacific Television Title Match : Bam Bam Bigelow © vs. Chris Adams Another war between these two heated rivals which Adams won by countout after he was able to Superkick Bigelow off the ring apron. Eddie Gilbert & Vic Steamboat vs. The Great Muta & Mr. Hito A furious encounter where Gilbert and Muta beat each other bloody throughout the match. It wound up coming down to Steamboat hitting a flying cross body press to pin Hito. Gilbert and Muta kept going at it long after the end of the match, with their partners and managers having to pull them away from each other. Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Midnight Express © vs. Badd Company Badd Company gave the champs a run for their money, but when the Hart Foundation came down to ringside, they tripped Tanaka coming off the ropes, and the Express capitalized with a double clothesline for the ill gotten win. 10 Man Tag Team Match : Jim Duggan, Dave Taylor, Tony St. Clair & British Steel (Steven Regal & Robbie Brookside) vs. Buddy Rose, Ed Wiskowski, David Finlay & The Dog Pound (Rick Steiner & Brian Knobbs) As one might imagine, this was a crazy match, with Finlay and St. Clair going after each other any chance they got. It was Duggan who got the pinfall after hitting the Three Point Clothesline on Knobbs, but you just know he would have preferred to get it on Buddy Rose.

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Portland Sports Arena, Portland , on ESPN / TSN , July 9th Norman Smiley vs. Brian Adams With his Thundercats partner Too Cold Scorpio temporarily out of action, Norman Smiley has faced an uphill struggle in his past few matches. This was particularly evident when he faced the "American Ninja" Brian Adams. Adams towered over Smiley, and was on his own quest to justify his place in Gary Hart's organization. Adams consistently overpowered Smiley and, although he did his best, Smiley just could not put a dent in Gary Hart's bodyguard. Adams hit the spinning backbreaker and got the one two three. But that was not enough for the man from Hawaii, and Adams kept tormenting Smiley by trapping him in an agonizing over the shoulder hangman. It looked like he could do some serious damage to Smiley, but Mike Rotunda charged out from the locker room to the rescue. He got Smiley out of the hold and started to throw down with Adams, who returned fire until Gary Hart ordered him out of the ring. He still continued shouting at Rotunda, and one could tell that these two were not done with each other. Badd Company vs. Iron & Steel (Larry Cameron & Tony Atlas) This match never got off the ground, as Iron & Steel were attacked by two men on the way to the ring. Once the cameras were able to focus on what was going on, it was revealed to be the Wild Bulls, who had not been seen since they lost the Pacific Tag Team Titles to the Midnight Express. Initially , a cheer went up at their return as the Gantner Brothers tore into Cameron and Atlas with a vengeance. But as their attack went on, the fans started to pale at the savage pummeling. Ed and Rick Gantner battered Fire & Steel with chairs until Cameron and Atlas were a bloody mess, and it fell to Badd Company to grab some chairs of their own to bail them out. Cameron and Atlas had to be helped to the back, and while the Bullpen were overjoyed at the return of their heroes, the rest of the fans weren't sure what to make of their violent tactics. Dave Taylor & ?? ?? vs. Ed Wiskowski & David Finlay After Steve Wright was taken out on a stretcher at a recent show, all eyes were on Dave Taylor and what he would do to fill the hole in his ranks. The fans got their answer when "We Don't Need Another Hero" by Tina Turner played over the arena PA and "Tough" Tony St. Clair came out to the ring. The English veteran was coming off a very strong run in the AWA and fans were eager to see what he could do in PCW. He and Taylor went together like bacon and eggs, with St. Clair showing considerable technical expertise while refusing to back down a single inch to the Playboy Club. That said, Wiskowski and Finlay just kept firing at them, and St. Clair was just barely able to hit the Floating Butterfly Suplex on Finlay and keep his shoulders to the mat for the three count. The English contingent have certainly regrouped with a vengeance and the Playboy Club had best keep an eye out for them. Keiichi Yamada vs. "Mean" Mike Miller "Mean" Mike Miller has been especially ornery of late, with the leader of the Crazy Gang engaging in some knock down, drag out fights with Barry Windham. This time out, he was facing the young Japanese sensation Keiichi Yamada, and in spite of Yamada's considerable technical skills, Miller kept trying to drag the match down into the gutter. Miller would always go into his bag of dirty tricks, no matter what the circumstances. When Yamada looked to have Miller lined up for the Brainbuster, only for Miller to block it with a nasty low blow knee shot. Miller followed up with an over the shoulder neck breaker and got the pinfall. Not a victory to be proud of, but Miller probably doesn't care. Interview : Frank Bonnema stands in the ring Bonnema : Ladies and gentlemen, my next guests are a group of wrestlers who seem to be heading for big things … the Five Man Army! The fans cheer as Leo Burke, Bam Bam Bigelow, Nick Busick, Steve Blackman and Shane Douglas head out to the ring. Contrary to their normally friendly dispositions, their expressions are uncharacteristically sober. Bonnema : Leo Burke, you have been working a lot with the mysterious wrestler known only as the Masked Avenger. Could the Five Man Army soon be a Six Man Army? Burke : Now that is an interesting question , Frank Bonnema. Yes, the Masked Avenger has helped me out against Jim Cornette's crew, and his help has been greatly apprecated. But some of the rest of the Army haven't been as appreciative of him. Douglas : It's not that we haven't been appreciative, Leo. But I just don't know what to make of him. He's been your friend, but he has made no effort to be our friend. We've teamed up with him, but he hasn't wanted to have anything to do with us. Bigelow : I'm with Shane on this. He just shows up out of nowhere, and we are all supposed to just trust him? I mean, what do we really know about this guy, anyway? Burke : Now listen! He has done nothing but be a good friend to me and has saved me on a number of occasions. I don't care what you think of him, I am grateful for all he has done for me. So I will keep on working with him, and that is final! On that awkward note, the members of the Five Man Army keep staring at each other as the show cuts to commercial. Vic Steamboat vs. The Great Muta Not much has been seen from the Great Muta since his return to PCW, but his hatred of the members of Missy Hyatt International continues unabated. He was all over young Steamboat, who fought back valiantly but struggled against Muta's furious attack. But things got even wilder when Eddie Gilbert stormed to the ring and attacked Muta. As the ref called for the DQ, Gilbert and Muta went at it fist and fire, and anyone who tried to separate them just got a punch to the face or a kick to the stomach for their troubles. It took a full complement of PCW security to keep the two apart, but these two are headed for a major explosion sooner or later. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Buddy Rose © vs. Robbie Brookside After all the shenanigans that have gone on tonight, the ref started the match by ordering the rest of the Playboy Club as well as Brookside's allies back to the locker room. With the distractions being removed from the match, the fans were treated to a classic showdown of Brookside's youth and athleticism against Rose's experience and cunning. Brookside has pulled off some impressive upsets lately, and the fans rallied behind him, cheering on every time he got a near fall on the champ. In the end, Rose showed the benefit of his finely honed instincts as he caught Brookside in an attempted running cross body and hit an over the knee backbreaker. He followed up with a running splash for the win. Rose was still the champ, but Brookside impressed many with his efforts.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Kelowna Memorial Arena, Kelowna, July 4th Brickhouse Brown vs. Todd Morton After a few tough losses, Brickhouse came roaring back in a fast paced match where he pinned Todd Morton after a swinging neckbreaker. Norman Smiley vs. Jack Victory After his partner Too Cold Scorpio was taken out a few weeks ago with a brutal piledriver, Smiley struggled in singles action against the muscle of the Hollywood Knights. "Hollywood" Jack ended up scoring the, err, victory with the Victory-Plex. Dan Severn vs. Mr. Hito These two skilled warriors kept the crowd spellbound with a technical showdown where Severn was ultimately able to get Hito to give up to a Wakigatame armbreaker. Barry Windham & Ron Simmons vs. "Mean" Mike Miller & Stan Hansen A ferocious battle which eventually descended into chaos and the ref declaring a no contest before bolting from the ring as all four men just kept on brawling. Brian Pillman vs. Bob Orton It looked like the Cowboy would get another victory over the former Cincinnati Bengal when he got him up on the top turnbuckle for the Superplex. But Flyin' Brian was able to pivot in mid air and land on top of Orton, scoring the one two three. Golden State Tag Team Title Match : The Hart Foundation © vs. Keiichi Yamada & Hiroshi Hase The two Japanese members of the Snowbirds put up a hell of a challenge for the Hart Foundation, but the champs were able to prevail when Bret Hart dodged out of the way of Yamada's running palm thrust into the corner, and followed up with a sunset flip to successfully defend their titles. Pacific Television Title Match : Bam Bam Bigelow © vs. Chris Adams In perhaps the biggest grudge match of the night, Adams truly took it to the champion in his quest to win the title. But the Beast From The East found back with unrelenting fury, and won by countout when he hit Adams with a running headbutt when the Englishman was on the ring apron, sending Adams crashing to the outside.

PCW drops Steve Wright.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver on Pacific Super Cards on ESPN / TSN , July 3rd Badd Company vs. The Vice Squad (Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose) Pat Tanaka thrust kicked Del Ray into a German Suplex by Paul Diamond to get the win David Taylor & Steve Wright vs. Ed Wiskowski & David Finlay Wiskowski and Finlay brutalized Wright on the outside, with Easy Ed hitting a face first piledriver on the concrete, taking Wright out of the match. Taylor put up an heroic struggle but the numbers disadvantage was too much to overcome, and Finlay hit a belly to belly piledriver to win the match. Wright was taken out on a stretcher. Scott Hall & Tom Magee vs. Mando & Hector Guerrero The Guerreros really took the Gator and Megaman to their limits in a close match but the young members of the Brigade pulled out the win when Magee hit a slingshot legdrop on Hector. Pacific Light Heavyweight Title Match : Chris Candido © vs. Jeff Jarrett A fast paced match that ended when Jarrett hit a running cross body press on Candido, only for Candido to reverse it with a rollover and pin Jarrett with his feet on the ropes. Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) & The Masked Avenger vs. The Midnight Express & Big Bubba Rogers Strangely, the Masked Avenger didn't seem to want to have anything to do with Black Gold, coming off as disinterested in tagging in or helping in away way as they battled with the Midnight Express. Once Big Bubba entered the match, however, Masked Avenger became interested, forcing the tag and wading into the match to throw down with the Louisville Slugger. It wound up being Dennis Condrey who was pinned by the masked man with a front slam. After the match, the Masked Avenger quickly walked away from his partners, heading straight to the locker room while Blackman and Douglas celebrated in the ring. California Title Match : Tracy Smothers © vs. Owen Hart Early in the match, "Mr. Hollywood" could clearly tell that Owen meant business and got scared. He wound up summoning the rest of the Hollywood Knights, Jack Victory and the Suicide Blondes (Chris Candido and Todd Morton) to ringside for the rest of the match. Ultimately, when Owen had Smothers in the corner for a monkey flip, the Blondes distracted the ref while Victory interfered and drove Owen throat first onto the top rope. When the ref turned around, Smothers was covering Owen and got the one two three. A dirty victory, but how long can Smothers keep this up against young Owen? Jim Duggan & British Steel (Steven Regal & Robbie Brookside) vs. Buddy Rose & The Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) This was a wild struggle with Rose doing everything he could to avoid facing Jim Duggan. It wound up being Brian Knobbs who faced the brunt of Duggan's wrath, taking the three point clothesline to given Hacksaw's team the victory.

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Victoria Memorial Arena, Victoria, on ESPN / TSN, July 2nd The Masked Avenger vs. Randy Rose Recently in Portland, the masked man faced off with Jimmy Del Ray, and tonight he would face the other half of the Vice Squad. "Ravishing" Randy was clearly reluctant to lock up with the leviathan, stalling for as long as he could, but eventually the Avenger got his hands on him and tossed him across the ring like a bag of dirty laundry. Rose tried to stick and move with the Avenger, but nothing he did seemed to make a dent, and when the Avenger hit him, it landed like a falling anvil. It looked like the Avenger had the match when he crushed Rose with a front slam, but just as the ref went over to make the count, Big Bubba Rogers came charging into the ring, with the Midnight Express in tow, and Cornette's Men attacked the Avenger as the ref called for the DQ. While the Avenger was usually more than a match for any challenge he faced, but 3 on 1 was too much for even him, and it looked like Bubba and the Express would do some serious damage. Lucky for him, Leo Burke rushed out to the ring, swinging a chair and scattering Cornette's Men to the wind. Burke helped up the Avenger , who stared at him for a few seconds before offering his hand. The two men shook hands as the crowd cheered. Ron Simmons vs. Tony Atlas This match would be a battle between two of the strongest men in PCW. Ron Simmons is currently embroiled in a feud with Stan Hansen, while Atlas is focusing on tag team action with his Iron & Steel partner Larry Cameron. Regardless, both were clearly taking this match very seriously. Every shot they made meant business, and the ring shook with every power move that landed. The incredible power of Simmons was like a force of nature, and he impressed many when he blocked Atlas' attempt at a Full Nelson with brute strength alone. Atlas, on the other hand, had a fair sized advantage in experience, using it to lure Simmons into traps and capitalize when Simmons made mistakes. The match reached it's climax when Atlas whipped Simmons into the ropes for a clothesline, only for Simmons to duck and come back with a massive Spear. One two three and Simmons had pulled out an incredibly hard fought win. Shane Douglas vs. Dennis Condrey With Black Gold challenging for the Midnight Express' Pacific Tag Team Titles, two members of each team squared off in singles action. Douglas was all enthusiasm, in contrast to the surly, ruthless demeanour of Condrey. His speed and energy got the crowd going, landing many rapid fire shots and drop kicks on Condrey. That said, Condrey proved to be just more cut throat, following up a leapfrog by Douglas with a low blow kick and then nailed him with a DDT to score the pinfall. Even in a singles match, the Midnight Express are a tough act to beat. Owen Hart vs. Mr. Hito Owen Hart certainly impressed many with his run as Golden State Tag Champ along with his partner Brian Pillman. Now that he is focusing more on singles success, he has set his sights on the California Title held by Tracy Smothers. Before he gets there, though , he has to get past the Japanese veteran Mr. Hito and Hito wasn't about to make it easy on him. With vicious precision shots, jarring takedowns and grueling submission holds, Hito really took it to young Owen. But the second generation star was intensely trained in his father's Dungeon and withstood the onslaught to battle back hard. He unleashed the full arsenal of his high flying moves before catching Hito in a belly to belly suplex that got the three count. Owen is proving he can do it on his own and Tracy Smothers had best watch out. Steve Blackman vs. Bobby Eaton This would be the second singles match of the night between the Midnight Express and Black Gold, and if Blackman was discouraged by his partner's earlier loss, he certainly didn't show it. The tough man from Pennsylvania fixed Eaton with a steely glare, determined to even the score for his team. He made sure that Eaton felt every shot that he landed, with martial arts kicks and shots that wore down "Beautiful" Bobby. Never the less, Eaton had plenty of tricks of his own, and the momentum of the match kept switching back and forth. That came to a shockingly sudden end when Blackman caught Eaton flat footed with a running bicycle kick and dashed over for the cover. One … two … THREE! Shane Douglas raced out to the ring and embraced his partner as they jubilantly celebrated their victory. Let's see if they can keep this momentum going into their title matches with the Express. Brickhouse Brown vs. Chavo Guerrero This was Brickhouse's first appearance since being brutally ambushed pre-match by the Crazy Gang. He was looking to show he still had what it took in coming back from his injuries, but faced an uphill battle against the eldest of the Guerrero Brothers. Guerrero took it to the popular Brickhouse, but Brickhouse was game for a fight and fought back just as hard. It was a battle every step of the way, with neither man letting up for a second. Brickhouse tried to put Chavo away with a swinging neckbreaker, but Chavo blocked it, grabbed him and a waistlock and hit a German Suplex that held him down for the count of three. A tough loss for Brickhouse, but one at with he acquitted himself commendably. Barry Windham vs. "Mean" Mike Miller The Brigade and the Crazy Gang have been feuding for a while now. While the Crazy Gang had the upper hand early on in the feud, since scoring some big victories at Seattle Showdown, the Brigade have been on a roll and showing more confidence with every week. This has gotten under the skin of the leader of the Crazy Gang, "Mean" Mike Miller, and he is set on making sure that the Brigade's momentum goes no further. He didn't even wait for the bell to ring, just going after Windham right out of the gate with wild lefts and rights. The big Texan was no pushover and fired back with haymakers of his own. This was no technical match, just an out and out fight and eventually spilled over to the outside of the ring. The ref counted to ten but both men seemed oblivious and kept at it. Even when security managed to get the two separated, Miller was pointing at Windham. It looks like "Mean" Mike isn't done with Windham by a long shot.

I remember a shoot interview with Barry Windham where he told the tale of Big John Studd gently reading him the riot act for wearing his cowboy boots from the street in the ring.

Yes, both the California Title and the Golden State Tag Team Titles are considered on the line , no matter where they are defended. In fact, a quick peak shows me the last 3 California title changes have taken place in places other than California.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from McArthur Court, Eugene, June 13th Hiroshi Hase vs. Brian Adams Hase did his best to use his speed and skill to bring Adams down, but in the end the sheer size of the American Ninja was too much to overcome, and Adams pinned Hase after a spinning backbreaker Brian Pillman vs. Bob Orton These two continued their war from the Saturday show, without letting up on the intensity. Orton was able to catch Pillman coming off the ropes with a power slam, and followed up with a lariat that scored the three count. This round went to Orton, but you can bet Pillman will come back just as determined as ever. Dan Severn & Jeff Jarrett vs. The Suicide Blondes (Chris Candido & Todd Morton) Severn and Jarrett continued their winning ways when Jarrett pinned Candido after a sunset flip out of the corner The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) vs. Iron & Steel (Tony Atlas & Larry Cameron) Iron & Steel won by countout after Cameron gave Smiley a piledriver on the ringside mat Barry Windham vs. Joel Deaton These two big Texans had a pier 6 brawl that ended with Windham putting down Deaton with a running Bulldog Headlock Golden State Tag Title Match : The Hart Foundation © vs. Badd Company The Harts were looking to show their dominance as the new Golden State Tag Champs, but they certainly had their work cut out for them as Badd Company were determined to make the titles theirs. The result was a real barn burner that had the fans going the whole way and ended when Bret Hart dodged a crane kick from Pat Tanaka, then nailed him with the Russian Legsweep and scored the one two three. California Title Match : Tracy Smothers © vs. Owen Hart Smothers may have been able to survive the challenge of Keiichi Yamada, but Yamada's Snowbirds colleague Owen Hart seems equally set on making his own claim at a shot at the belt. This match went back and forth in a gripping duel between Owen's technical mastery and Smothers' wily Southern tricks. In the end, they were still going at it when the bell rang, signalling a 20 minute time limit draw. Owen may not have pulled out the win this time, but that will make him even more determined the next time.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Portland Memorial Coliseum , Portland , on ESPN / TSN Pacific Super Cards, June 12th The Masked Avenger vs. Jimmy Del Ray The masked man took down Del Ray with an over the knee backbreaker Scott Hall & Tom Magee vs. Chavo & Mando Guerrero The Guerreros presented a real challenge for the Gator and Megaman, brining a wealth of experience and cunning that frequently stymied the young contenders. After a long match, Magee managed to pin Mando after a slingshot somersault legdrop, but it was a very close thing. Steve Wright & British Steel (Steven Regal & Robbie Brookside) vs. Ed Wiskowski & The Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) As one could imagine, this was a wild and crazy brawl, with the new formation of the Playboy Club being already dropped into a heated feud with the British contingent. After a furious battle, Easy Ed stole the victory with an ambush clothesline to the back of the head on Wright, but both sides kept going after the bell and had to be ordered from the ring by security. Ron Simmons vs. Stan Hansen Another hard hitting slugfest that ended in a no contest when both wrestlers clotheslined the ref. Owen Hart vs. Todd Morton A fast moving, high flying match that ended after Owen hit a flying missile dropkick on Morton Nick Busick vs. Chris Adams After Adams' dastardly attack a few weeks ago on Bam Bam Bigelow, Busick was out to avenge his Five Man Army partner. Adams certainly managed to hold his own against the man from Powerhouse Hill, but was clearly finding Busick difficult to corral. He eventually had enough and called in Mr. Hito, and the two ganged up on Busick as the ref called for the DQ. They kept up the beatdown until someone charged into the ring and started laying them out. It was Bam Bam Bigelow, making his return after Seattle Showdown! He and Busick rallied and sent Adams and Hito beating a hasty retreat from the ring. Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Midnight Express © vs. Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) This would the first defense for the Midnights since winning the titles last week, and it would be against one of the most promising young teams in PCW. While Black Gold put in an impressive challenge, in the end the champs kept the titles after a double goozle on Douglas. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Buddy Rose © vs. Vic Steamboat This was a coming out party for young Steamboat, as he gave hit utmost to win the title that his older brother had carried with so much honour. While Rose was able to swing the momentum back in his favour on a number of occasions through sheer guile, Steamboat just kept coming back at him, and the crowd was on the edge of their seats after several near falls. It seemed like he just might pull it off when he went up top for the flying cross body press, but it was all a trap by Rose , who ducked at the last second and let Steamboat crash to the mat. Rose then swiftly followed up with the Inside Out Backbreaker to put an end to Steamboat's valiant challenge. The crowd still gave Steamboat a round of applause as he left the ring. Rose was quick to pat himself on the back, but he didn't have long to celebrate. A whoop went up from the crowd, and Rose looked to see that was causing it. It was "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, who was standing in the aisle, staring daggers at the champ. The two kept staring at each other as the show closed.

Can't wait to enjoy your work, Jeff5819.

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Portland Sports Arena, Portland , on ESPN / TSN , June 11th The Masked Avenger vs. BB Anderson After showing up for the past couple of weeks to rescue Leo Burke from the clutches of Big Bubba Rogers, we finally have the in ring debut of the mysterious masked man. Going by the name the Masked Avenger, he certainly didn't give away much, simply coming to the ring and easily overpowering the rookie Anderson. This huge stranger was certainly impressive, hitting some jarring slams before finishing off Anderson with an over the knee backbreaker, but said nothing and didn't interact with the crowd as he left the ring. Just who is this masked man? Tom Magee, Scott Hall & Brickhouse Brown vs. "Mean" Mike Miller & The Vice Squad (Randy Rose & Jimmy Del Ray) After some frustrating initial results against the Crazy Gang, the newest members of the Brigade have been on something of a roll of late. A big part of their comeback has been Brickhouse Brown, who has galvanized his teammates and led them to some impressive wins. It's likely because of this that the Crazy Gang went straight to the gutter before the match even started, ambushing the Brigade on the way to the ring, attacking Brickhouse with a chair and driving him head first into the ring steps. Brickhouse was dazed and busted open, and when the ref sent him to the back for stitches, it was clear he would not be able to participate in the match. It would be 3 on 2 and the Crazy Gang cackled at what they had pulled off. They seemed to be congratulating themselves too soon, as instead of falling apart, Megaman and the Gator tore into them with a cold fury. Determined to avenge his fallen comrade, Hall grabbed Rose and started dismantling him with crushing power moves. Any time one of Rose's partners tried to interfere, Magee was right on the spot to knock them out of the ring with a dropkick or a forearm smash. It seemed like Hall threw an extra pinch of anger into the Gator Breaker (fallaway slam) on "Ravishing" Randy, and when Miller and Del Ray tried to break up the pin, they were knocked to the ground by a double clothesline from Magee and the ref counted to three. The Crazy Gang thought they could cause the Brigade to fall apart by taking out Brickhouse, but these are not the rookies that they once bullied, and it looks like the Brigade are truly ready to take on the world. Dan Severn & Jeff Jarrett vs. Dirk Been & Joel Klug Last week, Severn agreed to ally himself with Jeff Jarrett. The result is perhaps the oddest tandem in all of PCW, and this was clear with their ring entrance. Jarrett was all smiles, gladly shaking hands and giving high fives with the fans, while Severn was his usual stoic self, scowling and staring straight ahead. As odd a combination they might seem, the moment the bell rang, they went together like bacon and eggs. Swiftly tagging in and out, they easily dominated the young rookies, with Severn readily setting up Jarrett's high flying moves and Jarrett in turn feeding their opponents into Severn's takedowns and submission holds. The apex came when Jarrett dropkicked Been into a belly to back suplex by Severn for the win. They might both be confirmed lone wolves, but walking alone together seems to be working well for them so far. Brian Pillman vs. Bob Orton Both of these men are coming off losses at Seattle Showdown. While Pillman is seeking to show he has what it takes to succeed outside of his tag team with Owen Hart, while Orton was fighting for relevance after losing the Television Title, as well as confirming his place in the new Crazy Gang. Both men went at it full bore, with Orton adding an extra hint of viciousness in his big shots but Pillman refusing to be kept down and coming back with precision dropkicks. It was one such dropkick that sent Orton flying out of the ring, and Pillman capitalized by going up top and landing on the Cowboy on the outside. When they were able to get to their feet, the two kept slugging it out until the ref counted them both out, and for a long while besides. Something tells me that we have not seen the last of these two facing each other. Mike Rotunda vs. Joel Deaton It's taken some time, but the tide of the war between the Crazy Gang and the Brigade seems to have turned to the Brigade since Seattle Showdown. After their two big victories in Seattle, the Brigade have been brimming with confidence and reinvigorated with new energy. As you can imagine, the Crazy Gang are not pleased with that and are looking for any chance to bring the Brigade down a peg or two. To that end, they have sent the Outlaw himself, Joel Deaton, to bring down the Brigade's leader, and he certainly gave Rotunda quite the fight. Ultimately, however, Rotunda kept his cool and maintained control of the match, taking out Deaton with a Samoan Drop. Pringle's men will have to come up with another scheme if they intend to stop the momentum of the Brigade. Interview : Frank Bonnema stands in the ring Bonnema : Ladies and gentlemen, my next guests are coming off two controversial victories at Seattle Showdown … *deep , exasperated sigh* Jim Cornette, Big Bubba Rogers and the Midnight Express! The crowd explodes in boos as Cornette and his men make their way to the ring. Cornette is particularly insufferable, with an exaggerated swagger to the way he was swinging his raquet. Bonnema : Jim Cornette, you seem especially full of yourself lately. Cornette : Well, Frank Bonnema, if anyone has a right to be, it is us! My main man, Big Bubba Rogers, proved he is the baddest man in the universe with his completely clean and legitimate victory over the Canadian Caveman, Leo Burke! The Midnight Express took the Pacific Tag Team Titles, just like I said they would, proving that they are the supreme tag team in wrestling. We are the supreme wrestling unit in Pacific Coast Wrestling, and nobody is even close to breaking our stride! Bonnema : Well hold on a minute now, Jim Cornette. What about this mysterious Masked Avenger who has gotten involved in your matches lately? Cornette : Don't talk to me about the Masked Avenger! Masked Avenger, pah! What a joke! He isn't fooling me for a second! I know who that guy is and I know that I don't like him! Bonnema : So, who is he? Conrnette : That's for me to know, Bonnema, and for you to find out. I'm not even going to dignify him with saying his name. He still wants to interfere in our business, then he will have to face the consequences. I have all the faith in the world in the Louisville Slugger, Big Bubba Rogers, and if Mister So Called Masked Avenger wants to stick his nose into our affairs, well then we will just have to break it off! British Steel (Steven Regal & vs. Buddy Rose & Fit Finlay Last week, the war between British Steel and Fit Finlay entered a whole new dimension as Finlay and the Dog Pound joined forces with the Playboy Club. Rose and Finlay came out backed up by Ed Wiskowski, Rick Steiner and Brian Knobbs, clearly looking to intimidate the young Englishmen through sheer numbers. For their part, Regal and Brookside brought out their mentors, Steve Wright and Dave Taylor, who was returning from being injured by Finlay, but they were still ceding a 4 to 5 advantage. British Steel put in a game effort , but the circus at ringside provided plentiful distraction. The inevitable breakdown came when the Playboy Club started fighting with Wright and Taylor at ringside. Rose immediately sought to take advantage as he reached into his trunks and pulled out a set of brass knucks. But out of nowhere, someone appeared in the ring behind him. It has "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan! Duggan flattened Rose with a clothesline from behind, then immediately exited the ring. Regal immediately trapped Rose with a cradle suplex and the ref turned around in time to make the three count while Brookside held off Finlay. The Playboy Club were furious, but the Brits formed a line in the ring, with Duggan in front with his 2 x 4 saying, "Come on!" Finlay still wanted to go at it, but Rose put his arm around him and said, "Next time!" as he led his men off. It looks like the British contingent may just have found their equalizer in their war with the Playboy Club.

Can't wait, it will be amazing.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Kelowna Memorial Arena, Kelowna, June 6th Steve Blackman vs. "Mean" Mike Miller Miller showed the viciousness that is his trademark and pinned Blackman after an over the shoulder neckbreaker Nick Busick vs. Hector Guerrero After an intense battle, Busick caught Hector in the spinebuster slam for the win Vic Steamboat vs. Stan Hansen Hansen clearly had some frustration stemming from Seattle Showdown, and took it out on young Steamboat, brutalizing him before finishing him off with a Lariat Steve Wright & British Steel (Steven Regal & Robbie Brookside) vs. Fit Finlay, Buddy Rose & Ed Wiskowski The Englishmen won by DQ when the Dog Pound (Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) charged into the ring and attacked them. The Playboy Club continued to gang up on them until Regal grabbed a chair and used it to run them out of the ring Keiichi Yamada & Hiroshi Hase vs. Tracy Smothers & Jack Victory Smothers hit the Jawjacker on Hase to pull out the victory Scott Hall vs. Joel Deaton Hall was able to defeat the Outlaw with a power slam Golden State Tag Team Title Match : The Hart Foundation © vs. The Snowbirds (Owen Hart & Brian Pillman) Another rematch from Seattle Showdown, this was an epic match that ended when Bret hit a top rope clothesline on his brother Owen to successfully defend their titles.
