AWA All-Star Wrestling on ESPN / TSN for October 11th Dan Spivey vs. Ryan Aiken Oh joy. Dan Spivey’s ego continues its unchecked rampage as he paraded to the ring, waving a flag that said VARSITY CLUB and pointing up to the ceiling as the crowd ferociously. He puffed out his cheeks and swelled up his chest as he towered over the young rookie Aiken and dared him to take a shot. Aiken essayed a few chops to Spivey’s chest that had no effect other than to get Spivey’s finger waved in his face before unleashing a mighty lariat that knocked Aiken to the ground. Spivey then ran through his usual gamut of power moves before the Big Boot and Big Leg Drop spelled the end of the match. Cue the traditional Spivey ritual of self congratulation and posing. Will anyone shut this guy up? Al Perez & Brad Armstrong vs. The Moondogs Perez and Armstrong were at the wrong side of a four on two beatdown last week, but came out ready to go against the Moondogs. Rex and Spot were as crazy as ever , throwing wild swinging lefts and rights at Sunshine’s men, but Perez and Armstrong were not intimidated and swiftly took control of the match, easily dominating the Moondogs before polishing off Spot with a double Russian Legsweep. It looks like you just can’t keep Sunshine’s stable down for long. The Great Kabuki vs. Roger Sexton Case in point, Sunshine (who had changed between matches into a silver white kimono) came out with her latest charge, the Great Kabuki, who clearly prefers her company to Kendo Nagasaki and the rest of the Sinister Syndicate. Kabuki swiftly dismantled the rookie Sexton with martial artis moves and submission holds, ultimately hitting a mighty thrust kick that sent Sexton flying and ended the match. Sunshine has gone from a force to be reckoned with to unstoppable with this latest addition to her roster. Submission Match : Leo Burke vs. Steven Regal This is the third match in the best of 5 series between Burke and Regal, and with Burke up 2 wins, the “Young Gentleman” certainly found himself behind the 8 ball. Burke was determined to put a stop to Regal’s challenge with a pummeling attack that drew him into the Sleeper hold, but Regal kept finding a way to slip out of it. Every time Regal looked like he would get the advantage in the match, Burke would work in some sort of cheap shot to take it back. He finally got the Sleeper on Regal in the middle of the ring, and it looked to be all over for Regal. He was able to gut it out, however, and eventually make it to the ropes. Burke decided to switch tactics and went for a figure four, but Regal countered with an inside cradle. Since this was a Submission Match, the pin would not count, and the ref informed them to let it go. Burke cackled triumphantly, but the whole thing was a feint by Regal, who caught the unsuspecting Burke in an ankle sweep and lock him in the Regal Stretch. Try though he might, Burke could not fight his way out and gave up the match. This put Regal on the board with his first win in the series, but he still has an uphill struggle if he is going to be ultimately triumphant. Ricky Steamboat vs. Koko Ware Ware came out, as usual, with Brickhouse Brown and Tony Atlas, but they were all shocked and enraged to be greeted with an order by the AWA officials, declaring that, owing to their past shenanigans, they were barred from having their partners at ringside unless they were directly signed for the match. Atlas and Brickhouse were sent back to the locker room, but Koko still gave Steamboat an incredible fight, and even looked about to hit the brainbuster on Steamboat, but the Dragon was able to block it and reverse it into a schoolboy rollup that just barely got the one two three. Both sides looked still ready to keep going after each other post match, but then it was announced that Ware and Brickhouse would face Steamboat and Paul Orndorff in a tag match next week with Tony Atlas banned from ringside. Hopefully that will settle this issue once and for all.

AWA All-Star Wrestling on ESPN / TSN for October 4th Cpl. Scott Hall & Pvt. Mick Foley vs. Rick Steiner & Kevin Sullivan It seems that Sullivan and the Varsity Club still bear a grudge from Foley trying to join their ranks several months ago, as they seemed to take pleasure in bullying the rookie throughout the match. Steiner and Sullivan mocked Foley as they attacked him, out and out laughing as he struggled in vain to tag out. Steiner hit a brutal series of suplexes on Foley that clearly left him in bad shape, but refused to cover the young recruit. This would end up costing him, as a ducked clothesline gave Foley the opening to stagger into his corner and tag in the huge Scott Hall, who tossed Steiner around the ring before swiftly executing the Corporal Punishment to finish the match. The Cobra Corps got the win, but Foley had clearly taken a lot of damage and had to be carried from the ring by his concerned partner. Al Perez & Brad Armstrong vs. Buzz Sawyer & Dave Schultz Sunshine’s men came out and immediately brought the fight to the Army, showing themselves just as willing to throw down and slug it out as Sawyer and Schultz. This led to a tight, intense brawl, where it seemed like Sunshine’s men were getting the better of the Colonel’s , at which point Buck Robley himself interfered by attacking Brad Armstrong. While the ref called for the DQ, both sides continued to do battle until Jesse Barr rushed out and attacked Al Perez. While his cohorts piled on Armstrong, Barr gave a brutal Bulldog headlock to Perez which left him laid out in the ring. Sunshine was able to summon Badd Company to run off the Army but the damage had been done to Perez and Armstrong. Dan Spivey vs. Jeff Wilson The Dan Spivey Around-The-World Ego Trip Tour continues as he takes on muscular newcomer Jeff Wilson. Spivey went into his usual shirt ripping, flex posing theatrics before he started pointing at Wilson, waving his finger in Wilson’s face and challenging him to pose down. When Wilson did his own flexing, Spivey blind sided him with a lariat from behind. Several power slams, a Big Boot and a Big Leg Drop later and once more, Spivey was victorious. Spivey then went into his usual post-match routine of cupping his hand to his ear and parading about the ring like he owned the place. Big man, Spivey. AWA Southern Tag Team Title match : Badd Company © vs. Kendo Nagasaki & The Great Kabuki Kendo and Kabuki have had several shots at the Southern Tag belts, but have kept being foiled by Badd Company and, especially, their manager Sunshine. This time out , they were especially determined to make the titles theirs, unleashing a furious assault on Tanaka and Diamonds. The champs, however, were able to tough it out through a combination of resilience and deft tagging in and out. Diamond looked like he was going to dispatch this new challenge once and for all when he was about to set Kendo up for a superkick. Kendo went for desperation tactics by blasting Diamond full in the face with the green mist. The ref again called for the DQ, and as Sunshine frantically tried to check on Diamond, Kendo and Tojo Yamamoto went to town on Pat Tanaka, savagely beating him with the kendo stick. Sunshine then dashed over to interpose herself between Tanaka and the Syndicate. Tojo, sinking to a new low, ordered Kendo to grab the distraught Sunshine and hold her while he got ready to hit her with the kendo stick. He then had the stick grabbed out of his hands … by the Great Kabuki! Kabuki, for all of his past actions, was not about to let Tojo assault a lady. When Tojo started screaming in Kabuki’s face, Kabuki retaliated with a huge swat with the Kendo stick, giving one to Nagasaki for good measure to send them both scattering from the ring. He then helped up Sunshine and assisted her in getting Badd Company from the ring. No DQ Street Fight : Leo Burke vs. Steven Regal This is the second match of their Best of Five challenge. With Burke being up one win in the series, he seemed pretty cocky going in to this match, but the “Young Gentleman” was still determined not to be taken lightly. The Marquess of Queensberry Rules went out the window early as the two men furiously brawled. Nothing Burke did would keep Regal down for long. He finally went to dirty tactics, taking advantage of the No DQ stipulation by grabbing the ring bell and clobbering Regal with it. He then covered the unconscious Englishman to get the one two three. A cheap victory, but one that puts him within one more victory of taking the series. Things certainly don’t look good for Regal. AWA World Title match : Paul Orndorff © vs. Brickhouse Brown In a show rife with outside interference, it wasn’t a good omen when Brown came to the ring with his partners, Koko Ware and Tony Atlas. Orndorff, however, was clearly not intimidated. The Brandon Bull was seeing red as he tore into Brickhouse with a devastating series of power moves, all the while verbally daring the rest of Onyx Express to get involved. They were reluctant to directly engage him, and when he polished off Brickhouse with an especially vicious piledriver, the looked right at them and told them to come on if they were going to. They decided not to risk it, and simply pulled Brickhouse from the ring.

AWA All-Star Wrestling on ESPN/TSN for September 27th Dan Spivey vs. James Miller Spivey’s ego seems to be growing by leaps and bounds every week. He was extremely cocky as he came out to the ring , acting like he was slapping palms with the fans, in spite of their reluctance to do so with him. He then proceeded to rip off his Georgia Bulldogs t-shirt and make flexing poses in the ring, which seems to be a new ritual for him, and encouraged the much slimmer Miller to pose as well. Spivey could barely suppress laughter as Miller flexed and condescendingly applauded his efforts before shaking his hand. Once again, this turned out to be a ruse as he immediately followed up with a huge clothesline that dropped his opponent to the ground. He then bounced Miller all over the ring with a series of power moves before polishing him off with the Big Boot / Big Leg Drop combo. An easy victory but you would have thought he had just won the world title, the way he celebrated in the ring. Though the crowd loudly voiced their disapproval, Spivey acted like he was the homecoming king as he cupped his hand to his ear to soak up the imaginary cheers. Sgt. Slaughter vs. Don Muraco Sarge has been determined to take on all of the biggest guns in the Sinister Syndicate, and this time out was facing possibly their most ferocious competitor , the recent top contender for the World Title Don Muraco. As you could imagine, these two titans waged a tremendous struggle that swung back and forth, as Muraco kept trying to execute the belly to belly piledriver and Sarge in turn attempted to lock in the Cobra Clutch. Ultimately, Muraco whipped Sgt. Slaughter into the corner , only for Sarge to come roaring back with a mighty Slaughter Cannon that sent Muraco down to the mat. Slaughter got the pinfall in one of his most impressive victories yet. Leo Burke vs. Steven Regal Hot on the heels of their time limit draw last week, it was announced that Buke and Regal would face off in a best of five series of matches. While Burke seemed to be dismissive of Regal in the previous match, but this time out was clearly not taking him so lightly, working very aggressively with the “Young Gentleman”. He seemed to be switching to psychological warfare with Regal, sneaking in little cheap shots to goad him into a rash response. This got Regal’s blood up, who kept after Burke with lefts and rights to work him into the corner before the ref interceded. On the third time that Regal was punching away on Burke in the corner, the ref ducked in to try to put a stop for it, only for Burke to reach over him and drop his fist hard on the back of the ref’s head. Once he recovered, the ref, thinking that it had been Regal who had hit him, immediately called for the DQ win in favor of Burke. Regal protested, but the decision stood. Burke was smirking at having got one over on the “Young Gentleman”, but he would need to get two more wins to score the ultimate victory. AWA Southern Tag Team Title match : Badd Company © vs. Kendo Nagasaki & The Great Kabuki This was an incredibly intense match, with Badd Company’s speed and double team moves clashing with the martial arts expertise and underhanded tactics. Tojo Yamamoto’s men seemed to grow progressively more frustrated as every time they seemed to cheat their way into dominance, Tanaka and Diamond would find some way to rally and work it to their advantage. Tojo clearly decided to take matters into his own hands while the ref was disctracted and jumped up on the ring apron with the kendo stick and ordered Nagasaki to hold Diamond so he could clobber him. He never got the chance as Sunshine dove in, grabbed him by the ankle and pulled him to the floor. This caught Kendo off caught, and Tanaka schoolboy tripped him into a running crossbody by Diamond for the pinfall. An infuriated Tojo then went after Sunshine with the kendo stick, but Al Perez rushed out to ringside and he and Badd Company interjected themselves between their manager and the Syndicate’s men. AWA Canadian Title match : Rick Martel © vs. Brickhouse Brown To the surprise of no one , Tony Atlas and Koko Ware joined Brickhouse at ringside, and provided a consistent source of distraction to Martel. Martel did his best to keep his game face on, as he had his hands full with Brickhouse’s offense. He was able to prevail through Brickhouse’s attacks and had him set up for the slingshot splash. Koko took this opportunity to distract the ref while Atlas yanked down the top rope , causing Martel to fall to ringside. As Atlas and Martel slugged it out, the ref kept counting until he had counted Martel out of the ring, giving the win to Brickhouse. While this did not bring him the Canadian title, he did not seem to care as he and the rest of Onyx Express attacked Martel until Ricky Steamboat rushed out and helped run them off.

AWA All-Star Wrestling on ESPN / TSN for September 20th Steven Regal vs. Leo Burke It looks like the British contingent have drawn the ire of Playboy After Dark, with their technical specialist Leo Burke going after the “Young Gentleman” Steven Regal. Burke clearly didn’t think much of Regal, mocking him and stalling the initial lockup. He tried to take Regal to the mat early, but found the Young Gentleman was an expert at matwork and was able to get out of any trap Burke tried to ensnare him in. They eventually returned to standup, with Burke trying to work over Regal’s arm, but once again Regal kept one step ahead of Burke, working his way out of the armlock and catching Burke in one of his own. After a lengthy technical exchange, Burke was clearly getting frustrated with his inability to dominate Regal and snuck in a cheapshot punch, but was shocked when Regal fired back with a swift right cross. Burke recovered and started to exchange lefts and rights with Regal, but was clearly annoyed at having to take his much younger opponent seriously. The two resumed grappling and tried to work each other into submission holds, but as the match wound down, it seemed that the most they could manage was a stalemate. Both men had returned to standup and were just slugging it out when the bell rang, signaling the 15 minute time limit draw, but when the ref tried to separate the two, Burke and Regal kept going at it. Every time it looked like things had calmed down, one would go back after the other one , and the fireworks would start again. It finally took several AWA officials to finally get some distance between the two, but we clearly haven’t seen the last of this matchup. Dan Spivey vs. John Reynolds After his very strong showing against the world champ last week, Spivey has clearly been feeling his oats of late, strutting to the ring wearing a headscarf and University of Georgia Bulldogs t-shirt before tearing the shirt off and striking a series of flexing poses. Under the shirt he was wearing a gold chain with an large, ostentatious gold cross hanging from his neck. Reynolds, wearing a much smaller cross of his own , offered his hand to Spivey as a show of sportsmanship, and Spivey seemingly obliged with a handshake. However Spivey swiftly followed that with a huge clothesline that levelled poor Reynolds, and as the crowd exploded in boos, Spivey mockingly cupped his hand to his ears as he soaked up their jeers. He then proceeded to throw Reynolds around the ring before whipping him into the ropes and dropping him with a huge boot. Spivey finally dispatched Reynolds with a Big Leg Drop, continuing to mock the crowd while drinking in their anger like fine wine. Cpl. Scott Hall vs. Moondog Spot Perhaps as a result of Spivey’s earlier cocky display, Hall came out to the ring and, after taking some time to slap palms with some of the fans, was pretty much all business as he took on one half of the Moondogs. Spot tried to catch Hall in some of his trademark crazy brawling, but Hall was having none of that, easily dominating Spot with his incredible power before finishing him off with the Corporal Punishment. Hall has clearly built up quite a bit of momentum in the AWA. Greg Gagne vs. Jesse Barr This was mostly a technical matchup, with both men exchanging holds and keeping everything above board … until Gagne came off the ropes and Barr, taking advantage of being in the ref’s blind spot, felled Gagne with a nasty low blow kick. Barr swiftly followed up with a scoop power slam that got the extremely tainted pinfall. “Crusher” Jerry Blackwell vs. Pvt. Mick Foley Give full credit to the amiable rookie, Pvt. Foley did his best to put up a fight for Blackwell. The game Cobra Corps recruit peppered Blackwell with shots then dipping and dodging out of the way out of “Crusher’s” counter-attacks, ducking below some big clotheslines before firing back at him. It went well for a while before his luck finally ran out and Blackwell caught up with him, body slamming Foley and following up with some brutal elbow drops. He finally put an end to Foley’s challenge with a mighty power slam. He looked like he was not done with Foley and wanted to give him a running splash for good measure, but Cpl. Scott Hall rushed to the ring and pulled his comrade out of harm’s way. Hall and Blackwell exchanged words before parting ways. AWA World Title match : Paul Orndorff © vs. Tony Atlas As could easily be predicted, Atlas was accompanied by his Onyx Express stable mates Koko Ware and Brickhouse Brown, and both men provided a constant source of distraction to Orndorff has he tried to contain his aggressive challenger. The powerful Atlas was more than a handful for the world champ, but every time Orndorff seemed like he would get the match under his control, Koko and Brickhouse would make their presence felt. After he managed to catch Atlas off guard with a powerslam, Orndorff tried to take him out quickly with the Piledriver. But as Orndorff struggled to get him up, Brickhouse came off the top rope with a missile dropkick that signaled the end of the match by DQ. The three men would continue to attack Orndorff and it looked like they might do some serious damage, but then the crowd erupted in cheers as Ricky Steamboat, who hadn’t been seen since the Onyx Express had attacked him two weeks ago, charged out to the ring swinging a chair and ran them off. Orndorff seemed a bit wary of Steamboat but the two left the ring together.
