LowBlowPodcast Posted July 9, 2018 Report Posted July 9, 2018 Just now, SirEdger said: I haven't seen him anywhere and on anyone's roster so my guess would be that he is. If that's the case consider him my 50th spot at this point unless someone jumps in.
awesomemiz Posted July 10, 2018 Report Posted July 10, 2018 just a quick note I'm away with work saturday so my show which will be dated 14th July will either be posted friday or sunday. if thats ok
SirEdger Posted July 10, 2018 Report Posted July 10, 2018 No problem. Some people post their shows sometimes early, sometimes a little later. No big deal, as long as you post regularly
awesomemiz Posted July 10, 2018 Report Posted July 10, 2018 as of now i will be posting weekly with added monthly huge house show
dawho5 Posted July 12, 2018 Report Posted July 12, 2018 There had been a question regarding Abdullah Tamba lately and I hadn't had time to find my research matches again. The best one is here. He's the Abdullah lookin' guy who actually sells, bumps and hits a running dropkick and that sideways jumping lucha headbutt in the second caida. He's pretty agile for a 270 pounder and apparently did a tope, gaining him the nickname the Flying Elephant. He would have been 34 in 1984.
Grimmas Posted July 16, 2018 Report Posted July 16, 2018 First show finally up, sorry for the delay. My laptop broke. I should have the second show up either today or Wednesday, and then the third show to follow shortly. I will be up to date then. I'm trying something different, let me know what you folks think.
rainmakerrtv Posted July 17, 2018 Author Report Posted July 17, 2018 I am back from vacation and will try to get something posted soon.
awesomemiz Posted July 20, 2018 Report Posted July 20, 2018 sorry not been on much this last few days but had a bit of a crappy time. things are looking up now so going to post a modified version of 14/7 and 21/7 shows to allow me time to put full effort in to the 28/7 show. i will also be posting more after looking at other shows.
awesomemiz Posted July 20, 2018 Report Posted July 20, 2018 it just my luck though that everythings going great so i start on here then my life goes to the crapper in space of 2 weeks
SirEdger Posted July 20, 2018 Report Posted July 20, 2018 We all go sometimes through a rough patch but the beauty of this Project is that it can allow us to escape that rough patch by doing something we love. Glad to see you back and looking forward to see you progress in the game
rainmakerrtv Posted July 20, 2018 Author Report Posted July 20, 2018 Where is Chris Champion these days?
SirEdger Posted July 20, 2018 Report Posted July 20, 2018 No idea. I'm pretty sure he was in the 1986 Fresh Faces draft but I don't think that he was drafted at all, unless I missed a pick.
dawho5 Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 A thought hit me and I did some research. In 1980 there were 28 cable networks (or channels I suppose). Deregulation by the government in 1984 led to that being 79 by the end of 1989. There were 53 million homes wired for cable at that time. We all know the territories were affected greatly by cable and how different promoters handled it. Do we want to work that into how things go as we get closer to 89?

What kind of changes could you see happening?

Maybe things go smoother with the way the NWA is working now. Since there is such cooperation and sharing of talent, having these guys seen all across the country wouldn't be such a blow to the way the NWA works here as opposed to the way it affected the way the NWA actually worked. If you saw a late night WCCW show in Canada or a Lutte show in Texas there wouldn't be a huge disconnect. It would also mean you would have multiple promotions trying to air shows in different markets and the competition that would engender might hurt that cooperation (in a real life scenario). But it could be a deal where most everything was seen in a lot of areas of the country and everybody basically had the prime time slots/ratings in their home area too.
SirEdger Posted July 23, 2018 Report Posted July 23, 2018 In this game though, I think the scenario of multiple promotions trying to expand in various markets in the way you explain it will be diminished because of the NWA affiliations and such. Unless a territory decides to break off on his own at that time and decides to play hardball, then this could come into play. Right now, this would mostly apply to WWF and AWA but I think we still have a long way to go and figure this out as we progress
awesomemiz Posted July 29, 2018 Report Posted July 29, 2018 Am I ok to book local celebs for my big shows in no wrestling capacity?

Depends on who they were and how they would related to wrestling. I don't quite see Muhammad Ali and 1986 coming up to Portland but if you have other ones I'm sure that it'll be okay try to keep it as realistic as you can with the times the location and the product.
awesomemiz Posted July 30, 2018 Report Posted July 30, 2018 I was thinking a tug of war at the interval between 2 oregon university football teams
awesomemiz Posted July 30, 2018 Report Posted July 30, 2018 I should b all caught up in my shows tomorrow
spaldoni Posted July 30, 2018 Report Posted July 30, 2018 I'm not sure if this has been brought up before so I wanted to run this by you guys. Would there be any objections to running a special event in Hawaii?
kevinmcfl Posted July 30, 2018 Report Posted July 30, 2018 I have no problem with but I must add that Hawaii was a diffent animal with such loyalty to its own that mainlanders were often seen as the foreign heel. One of our traditional promotions might not work so well there.
spaldoni Posted July 30, 2018 Report Posted July 30, 2018 Yea Good point Kev. I was just watching and reading about the Hot Summer Night Aloha Stadium shows they held in August during the 80s. They brought in a ton of talent for the shows. It was pretty cool. Anyways, just got me thinking.
