Oh, I meant to say I hope it isn't done now that he faced the real Harts.

 

I'm only doing those 2 dates until at least December so you're golden.

Can't wait for Street-Garvin in the cage and I will add my praise for the imposter Brett Hart gimmick.

ICW ALL STAR WRESTLING - AUG. 6TH (TAPED AUG. 4TH IN LEXINGTON, KY)

 

Liz Hulette: Hello and welcome to International All Star Championship Wrestling. I'm your hostess Liz Hulette, and today's show is a doozy. We'll see the fallout from this past Saturday's show in Charleston, WV, several returns and debuts, and a fantastic tv title main event. Let's head down to Tim Tyler and Jim Cornette for all the action.

 

Tim Tyler: Thanks Liz! Well, Jim, it looks like after the tag title match last Saturday you had to spend some of your Mama's money on new boots for the New Generation.

 

Cornette has two new pairs of boots on the announce table.

 

Jim Cornette: At least The New Generation can appreciate a new pair of boots. I still haven't been able to get those Samoans to wear the ones Mama bought for them. I tell you, Tyler, I'm at my wits end.

 

Tim Tyler: We'll have the presentation of those boots later in the show. Right now, we're going to see a newcomer to ICW. His name is JR Hogg, and he's in action against Hans Schroeder right now.

 

Lanny Poffo and the Fortunate Sons make their way out to the announce table.

 

Lanny Poffo: Hold on one minute, Tim Tyler. This is my show, and we'll follow my schedule. We have something to say first.

 

The Fortunate Sons climb into the ring.

 

Tim Tyler: Ron Garvin revealed the truth about Brett Hart this past Saturday in Charleston, let's take a look.

 

Video plays of Garvin's expose of Brett Hart being a fake Hart brother thanks to the visiting Bruce and Keith Hart from Canada.

 

Back to the ring, Lanny Poffo has a microphone and is addressing the crowd.

 

Lanny Poffo: We have done some investigating of our own, and those men are not, in fact, brothers of this man, Brett Hart. Isn't that correct, Brett?

 

Brett Hart: That is correct.

 

Lanny Poffo: At first we thought what many of you thought, that those men were the real Harts and that our Brett Hart had been lying to us and to all of you. We were shocked, shocked at the thought of this. But we are even more shocked at the truth. Please reveal the truth to everyone here and everyone watching at home, Brett.

 

Brett Hart: Those men were impostors! They were good fakes, they even fooled me at first. But this is my real brother Keith:

 

A picture is shown on the studio monitors and to the fans at home. It is of a firefighter in full gear, including helmet with face shield and mask so that the firefighter's face is obscured.

 

Brett Hart: Keith is a firefighter. He loves being a firefighter so much he never takes his uniform off. He sleeps in it. He showers in it. He wrestles in it. That should have been my first clue that the man who came to Charleston, WV was not Keith, because he wasn't wearing his uniform.

 

Lanny Poffo: Indeed. And what about your brother Bruce?

 

Brett Hart: There's no way Bruce Hart could have made time out of his busy schedule to be in Charleston, WV last Saturday night! Not only does he wrestle in one part of Canada for All Star Wrestling in Vancouver, but he also helps out my dad in Calgary behind the scenes for Stampede Wrestling. Plus he's a school teacher! The man just has no time to come to a backwoods, ignorant, poor, pitiful place like West Virginia.

 

Lanny Poffo: There you have it. The truth from the one man here that really knows the Hart family, because he is part of the Hart family! Thank you, Brett. Now, Ron Garvin, you're not here today, but if you were I would say that you must not be able to stand yourself if you can't stand a liar! You've got some skeletons in your closet, Garvin, and it's only a matter of time before they are dug up! You saw what I did to my own brother, so what do you think we will do to you if you keep sticking your nose where it doesn't belong? Randy Savage is gone, and soon you will be too!

 

The studio lights flicker at the mention of Lanny Poffo's brother Randy Savage, and what sounds like a ghost can be heard through the studio.

 

Sound: OOOOOOOOOOOO.......

 

Leroy Redbone: It's the ghost of Randy Savage come to get us!

 

Mike Graham: Shut up, you idiot. He's not dead.

 

Lanny Poffo: You don't scare me, Randy! You ran, just like your namesake! Your cheap parlor tricks won't work on us.

 

Randy Savage face appears on the studio monitors.

 

Randy Savage: OOOOOOOOOOOO......OOOOOOHHHHHH YEEEEAHHHHHHH! The Macho Man Randy Savage, comin' to you from the afterlife, dig it! I'm like a Poltergeist, Lanny, haunting you from beyond the grave. What was it that little girl said, 'They're here'? I'm always gonna be there Lanny, oh yeah. And when you least expect it, I'm going to FREAK OUT and getcha. And your little dogs too. You always liked poetry Lanny, so I'm gonna leave you with this one. Roses are red, violets are blue, you're gonna be dead, when the Macho Man catches up with you!

 

The Fortunate Sons are yelling for Randy Savage to come out and face them in the ring as we go to commerical.

Tim Tyler: Hello folks, we finally got the ring cleared out after all that excitement, and we're ready to bring you our first match this week.

 

JR Hogg vs Hans Schroeder w/ JR Foley - JR Hogg wins by pinfall in 4:18

 

JR Hogg comes out to the ring in a floppy brown hat, overalls, a long brown coat, and boots to the sounds of 'Thank God I'm a Country Boy' by John Denver. He is the definition of a mountain man with his long beard and moonshine jug that he takes a drink from before the match. Letting out a loud 'Yee Haw!' he tears into Schroeder with rights and lefts. Schroeder cheats a bit and with the help of JR Foley on the outside has the advantage for a short while, but eventually JR Hogg whips Schroeder into the turnbuckle and follows it up with an Avalanche followed by the pin. After the match he dances a jig to his music in the ring.

 

Tim Tyler: That was a heck of a debut by JR Hogg!

 

Jim Cornette: He sure smells like a hog. Do I really have to go into the ring after that? It's going to be like a pigsty in there.

 

Tim Tyler: Not yet, Jim. We'll have the boot presentation a little later in the show. Right now, it looks like your man Adrian Street has sent in a response by video to Ron Garvin's cage match challenge for this Saturday night at Rupp Arena here in Lexington, KY! Let's hear it:

 

The video plays with Adrian Street sitting in front of a giant mirror on a dresser. He is fixing his makeup and hair.

 

Adrian Street: Oh, hey Ronnie! I heard you wanted to ask me out again this Saturday night. I thought this was just a fling, but it sounds like we're getting serious. If you want to go steady, you're going to have to step it up. I admit, I underestimated you, but you've underestimated me too. I'll see you Saturday, and you're going to see what a serious Adrian Street can do to you. Toodle loo, Ronnie poo!

 

Street blows a kiss at the screen before we head to commercial.

Tim Tyler is in the interview area when we return.

 

Tim Tyler: It's my pleasure to introduce one of the newest tag teams in ICW, Mike Doggendorf and Mike Davis. They'll be in action this Saturday night in Rupp Arena against Athol Foley and Hans Schroeder. Now, you guys have a unique request for our fans.

 

Mike Doggendorf: That's right, Tim. We've decided to make this partnership permanent, and we're setting our sights on the ICW Tag Team Titles.

 

Mike Davis: The problem is, we're having trouble coming up with a team name that really pops, that lets everybody know we mean business. So we're asking the fans for help.

 

Tim Tyler: Fans, send your ideas for a team name for Mike Doggendorf and Mike Davis to the channel 27 studios. We'll pick the very best next week and announce it right here on ICW All Star Wrestling. Thanks guys.

 

Doggendorf and Davis leave the interview area.

 

Tim Tyler: This next gentleman is making his triumphant return to ICW, everyone welcome Eddie Hogan back to the studio. Eddie, it's good to have you back.

 

Eddie Hogan: Thanks, Tim. And no, I haven't heard from Hulk Hogan recently. But I did hear from Angelo Poffo after I put out a challenge to face the biggest man in wrestling, and somehow, someway, Angelo made it happen. So on Wednesday, August 10th, live from Memphis, TN, I am going to do what Hulk Hogan, what no man has been able to do, and that is beat Andre The Giant!

 

Tim Tyler: You're kidding! Here, in ICW? Andre The Giant? That's amazing!

 

Eddie Hogan: It's Incredible, Tim. And so am I! And I will prove it this Wednesday. I will go down in history as the man that beat the Giant, or I'll die trying.

 

Tim Tyler: Good luck this Wednesday night, Eddie! And in your match now too.

 

Eddie Hogan vs Athol Foley w/ JR Foley - Hogan wins in 4:56 with a leg drop.

 

After the match, JR Foley gets in the ring and confronts Hogan, saying maybe he would like to face the Real Giant of wrestling, Giant Haystacks, this Saturday night. Hogan accepts the challenge, saying he'll slay giants anytime, anywhere.

Tim Tyler: Ladies and Gentlemen, as per the stipulation of their match this past Saturday, Jim Cornette must present the New Generation with new boots after they beat the Samoans in a barefoot match. Jim and the Samoans are already in the ring, so let's bring out the New Generation.

 

Johnny Wilhoit and Mark Batten make their way to the ring. Cornette waits with the Samoans, each Samoan holding a pair of boots for the New Generation.

 

Jim Cornette: I hate to admit it, but The New Generation beat The Samoans fair and square. You showed me that it's not the clothes that make the man. You are winners, with or without boots, and these Samoans are losers, no matter what I do.

 

The Samoans look a little angry.

 

Jim Cornette: I've done everything I can to get these savages to realize that no one wants to see or smell their big, ugly feet. I thought that if I could get them to stop being hard headed idiots and appreciate a good pair of boots, they would see the benefits. But they have always been losers, they have never been tag team champions like the New Generation, and they will never be champions. So Samoans, if you can do this right, give the New Generation their boots and get as far away from me as possible, because I am done with the two of you and your smelly feet.

 

The Samoans look a lot angry. The Samoans look at Cornette, back at the boots, then back at Cornette.

 

Jim Cornette: I know you dummies can understand English. Give. Them. The. Boots. Oh hell, I'll do it myself. Give them here.

 

Cornette goes to grab the boots and the Samoans hang on.

 

Jim Cornette: Let me have them!

 

The Samoans let him have them all right, and start wailing on Cornette with the boots. The New Generation come to Cornette's aid (or maybe just their boots aid) and get wailed on as well. All three bail out of the ring as the Samoans tear the boots up, ripping and chewing on them. The crowd cheers wildly for the Samoans.

 

Tim Tyler: Oh my! (chuckling) We'll be right back after the break.

 

Commercial

 

Tim Tyler: Welcome back. It appears my broadcast partner Jim Cornette has left the announce table, but I am joined again by the Fortunate Sons. Leroy Redbone is in action next against Rick Connors.

 

Lanny Poffo, Mike Graham, and Brett Hart make their way out and have a seat around the table.

 

Leroy Redbone vs Rick Connors - Redbone wins in 9:58 by pinfall after a diving knee drop. The following took place during the match:

 

Mike Graham: That's right, Tyler. Leroy Redbone, son of Dick the Bruiser, owner of the WWA. Next in line when old Dick bites the dust just like me in Florida, Lanny here in ICW, and Brett in Calgary.

 

Tim Tyler: So you say, Graham. Not every son of a wrestler or promoter has been on your side though. Greg Gagne didn't think much of you. Neither did the Harts, or Randy Savage.

 

Lanny Poffo: You saw what happened to my brother Randy Savage when he crossed us, and we didn't think much of Greg Gagne. We are the future of wrestling, Greg Gagne will be merely a footnote. And we already told you, those were not the real Hart brothers, so they don't count!

 

Tyler: Fine, if you say so. Speaking of sons of wrestlers, what was all that about last Saturday with David Sammartino. He didn't ask for your help, did he?

 

Mike Graham: That's between us and David Sammartino! David's young, but we think he has what it takes to be a Fortunate Son. He's got to prove himself first, though.

 

Tyler: And how does he do that?

 

Mike Graham: First off, he has to beat old has beens like Stan Stasiak! Then he has to prove he can hang with the rest of us. I asked to face him personally this Saturday so I can see what he's made of.

 

Tyler: Well all right, this Saturday is shaping up to be a heck of a card!

 

The match ends and we go to commercial

Updated card for Saturday, August 6th at Rupp Arena in Lexington, KY

 

Ron Garvin vs Adrian Street - Cage Match
ICW Tag Team Titles: The New Generation vs The Samoans
Mike Doggendorf and Mike Davis vs Athol Foley and Hans Schroeder
The Minnesota Wrecking Crew vs Don Anderson and Mighty Igor
Eddie Hogan vs Giant Haystacks
Mike Graham vs David Sammartino

 

Tyler: Our main event for the show is Jimmy Valiant taking on Ratamyus for the ICW Television Title. The Man in Black and the rest of the Pentagram were warned after their actions last week that nothing like that would ever be tolerated again on ICW All Star Wrestling, and they would be banned from the show if anything similar were ever repeated. We are unable to replay that graphic video for you, but the Pentagram working with the Grapplers beat The Boogie Woogie Man bloody, then painted a pentagram on his chest in his own blood. Just thinking about it makes me sick to my stomach. Our main event is for tv time remaining, let's go to the ring.

 

Jimmy Valiant vs Ratamyus w/ The Man in Black and The Invader - ICW Television Title - Jimmy Valiant wins by DQ in 10:23

 

Valiant and Ratamyus have a titanic battle, each man giving as good as he got. The Man in Black got involved during the match, but Valiant was able to wrest the Key away from him after he tried to hit Valiant with it. It looked like Valiant had control of Ratamyus for a split second, but it appeared the Key burned his hand and he dropped it, allowing the Man in Black to retrieve it. Valiant was then attacked by all three men, until his brother Johnny Valiant runs to the ring to make the save. The two brothers stand tall in the ring after the Pentagram retreat.

 

Post Show

 

A man comes out on stage for a pre taped message:

 

Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Carl Fergie. I am Jerry Lawler's cousin. This Wednesday night August 10th in Memphis, at the Cook Convention Center at 7PM, I have asked my cousin The King Jerry Lawler to meet me in the ring, to end this silly feud between the Continental Wrestling Association and International Championship Wrestling. I am the self appointed representative of ICW, and it is my position that we should all work together to bring you, the wrestling fans, the best wrestling possible. I hope I can convince my cousin, Jerry 'The King' Lawler, to call a truce. I hope you'll all join me there, and lend your support to this effort. Thank you.

[goc]

Another great episode. At the risk of upsetting other people, this is my favorite promotion to read right now. It's not all about what "stars" are on the roster but how you use the pieces you have. You actually have me wanting to see Mike Graham vs. David Sammartino!

 

I hope Eddie Hogan isn't being literal with his promise to beat Andre or die trying though.

 

You already know my feelings on Tio & Tapu so the fact that you've made me interested in them is very high praise. Loved the boot angle.

 

I love the Fortunate Sons stuff but you already knew that too.

[Flyin' Brian]

Wow. Thank you. That means a lot.

 

With Eddie Hogan, you never know.

 

You were the inspiration for the boot angle, with your outrage over them wearing them against a barefooted team. lol

[goc]

You were the inspiration for the boot angle, with your outrage over them wearing them against a barefooted team. lol

Fucking Maoris wearing boots against bootless Vinnie Valentino...one of the worst wrestling sins I've ever seen.

[dawho5]

The ghost of Savage is incredible. Street, the Hart angle, the Samoans are all great too. Awesome TV.

[Jesse Ewiak]

The explanation for why the Hart's weren't really the Hart's will be a classic on Youtube in this TL, the Samoan angle is great 80's style TV, and of course, the Macho Ghost. Also I've got to give it to you for writing out all of the promos.

[Beast]

I'll join in with the fake Bret Hart angle praise. Hopefully somewhere down the line (maybe way down the line) Stampede will send the real Bret down to clear things up.

 

Ghost of Randy Savage works just based on how awesome that phrase sounds.

 

You've done a great job using a lot of lesser known wrestlers and making everyone mean something. Great stuff.

 

And Eddie Hogan vs Andre is so obvious it's genius.

[KrisZ]

The Fortunate Sons gimmick and angles have been one of the highlights of this whole project....kudos.

[Super Stan]

Following ICW's dark days, I am planning on some changes in taking it over and in doing so, the following are up for trade. I have a list of wants from just about everyone involved, so I am sure we can work out some kind of deal for anyone involved.
