Mid South Wrestling is coming to you on its Fox Affiliates throughout Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. Action is coming to you tonight from the Civic Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.



BWand_JR.png



Jim Ross: Welcome everyone to Mid South Wrestling! I am Jim Ross alongside Cowboy Bill Watts. Bill… tonight is perhaps one of the most important nights in Mid South. Tonight we will see a huge ten-man battle royal with the winner getting the chance of a lifetime against Ric Flair in the Superdome on February the 4th!



Bill Watts: That’s right Jim. Tonight, you’ve got 10 double tough men who are going to leave it all in the ring. One man is going to be left standing.



Ross: We know who the ten men are. We will see them in our main event tonight and without a doubt Bill… it is anyone’s ball game.



Watts: I have got to agree with you there. These guys all have a chance and anyone could walk away with that shot and there’s a couple of these guys who could walk out with the chance to get that title from Ric Flair.



Ross: Any man on any night has a chance to make something like that happen. We will see who walks away with the chance. Right now, we have action in the ring, the North American champion Ted Dibiase is in action!



Rick McGraw vs Ted Dibiase


-A nice little contest for Dibiase. He handles McGraw with little to no issue here. We see him work the neck and the knee. He nails the piledriver and then locks in the figure four and McGraw isn’t moving as PeeWee Anderson stops the contest! Dibiase works the crowd and says that the JYD is going to pay… the hard way!



*COMMERCIAL*



-MSW returns with Ross and Watts hyping the big battle royal coming up. All of a sudden, Scotty Casey walks out and he is hooting and hollering up a storm. He walks over and he’s screaming at Watts and Ross. He is talking about how his hair isn’t growing back, how he is blaming Wrestling II, and he is saying that he deserves a chance at the Television Championship. Wrestling II walks out to an eruption from the crowd. Wrestling II says he has no problem defending the title against Casey and says he will do it on the biggest stage in the Superdome and he will do more than just shave his head when this is all said and done… whatever that means…. Ross and Watts put it over and then cut to the ring for another contest…



El Bracero & Jose Lothario vs Rick Rude & Superstar Graham


-An interesting contest here. Bracero and Jose are really blending well as a team. We see Rude and Graham doing alright, but they are not on the same page in the middle of the contest and it leads to a huge miss-communication. Rude is holding Jose who breaks free before Superstar nails him with a big right hand, sending him out of the ring to the floor. Here comes El Bracero with a top rope cross body on Graham for the 1…2….3!! Bracero and Jose work the crowd. Rude however goes up to Graham and he is ripping into him something awful. He walks away as Graham is trying to figure out what’s going on. Ross and Watts are confused and wonder what this means…



*COMMERCIAL*



-MSW returns as Fulton and Rogers, the Mid South tag team champions are here. They work the crowd a little before talking about their next big match against Adonis and Murdoch in the Superdome. All four men put over just how dangerous Murdoch and Adonis are. They talk about the recent 30-minute time limit draw that they had. They asked Watts to give them 60-minutes in the Superdome and that may just not be long enough with these four men. They put over the battle royal and the big once in a lifetime chance to face Ric Flair for the title as we cut to the ring for our next matchup!



ThunderBolt Patterson & S.D. Jones vs Adrian Adonis & Dick Murdoch


- A pretty good contest with these four tonight. SD and Patterson compliment one another quite well and it works in their favor against one of the best tag teams in the world right now with Murdoch and Adonis, who are just a step ahead. Fulton and Rogers put this over in a big way and then we see Murdoch grab something out of his tights and it is a very tight shot to the through on SD Jones… Adonis grabs him for a DDT and the 1…2….3! Murdoch and Adonis have got the shot against the Fantastics… it is set in stone for the Superdome… now we get to find out who faces Flair?



*COMMERCIAL*



-MSW returns with Watts and Ross putting over the battle royal in the biggest way. They talk about the matches already signed… JYD vs Dibiase, Wrestling II vs Scott Casey, and The Fantastics vs Adonis & Murdoch. They talk about more matches being announced next week and then they talk about favorites for the battle royal. Ross says that Brody or Wahoo has the best chance… perhaps the Executioner. Watts wonders how Magnum TA will do and says that Blanchard could be the man to beat. They cut to the ring and it is time for this huge match!



MAIN EVENT


WINNER GOES ON TO FACE FLAIR FOR THE NWA TITLE


Hacksaw Duggan, Bruiser Brody, Krusher Kruschev, King Kong Bundy, Wahoo McDaniel, Masked Superstar, Tully Blanchard, Magnum TA, Executioner, Don Muraco


-This one has been built up so much. The top ten guys in Mid South have the chance of a lifetime here tonight. Ross and Watts put this over for the fans and we see some great action. Early on, it is the Executioner and Brody just throwing some huge bombs with one another. Magnum TA and Tully Blanchard have really got some hatred for one another. Wahoo and Bundy finally lock up and it brings the crowd to their feet. Kruschev is almost like a mercenary, going around, helping and hitting when he needs. Hacksaw Duggan is trying to fight off Superstar and Muraco.



*COMMERCIAL*



-The match returns and we see Wahoo and Bundy outside the ring fighting around a crowd of officials. On the other side of the ring… Magnum TA throws Tully Blanchard out but the referees are locked up with Wahoo and Bundy. Blanchard sneaks back in the ring and comes from behind Magnum and tosses him over the top by the officials and gloats. Brody comes from behind him and tosses him out! On the other side of the ring, Duggan with a huge double clothesline and out go Superstar and Muraco! It is dwindling down here with only four men remaining. Duggan and Brody taking on Kruschev and Executioner! We get a nice brawl with these four but Tully Blanchard isn’t done… Brody is close to the ropes and Blanchard pulls them down as the Executioner nails him with a huge boot and Brody goes over the top to the floor! It is down to three and Executioner and Krusher are doubling up on Duggan who ducks and comes with a big shoulder block on Krusher and he goes to the corner. Executioner is close and Duggan comes with a huge clothesline and Executioner is out. Here comes Krusher but Duggan ducks and tosses him over his back, over the ropes, and to the floor! DUGGAN HAS WON IT! DUGGAN HAS WON IT! The crowd erupts as JYD comes out to celebrate with him! Bill Watts joins them in the ring!



-Watts puts over the big match and Duggan says he is going to bring that NWA title right here to Mid South. He says he is going to do whatever it takes to bring it to Flair. We then see Krusher and Boris come out. Krusher is saying Duggan cheated. Duggan says if he wants a fight he can come and get it! JYD puts over Duggan and says he is going to take that title from Flair and JYD is going to take it from that old dirty dog Ted Dibiase and send him packing for a year! Watts puts it over and says he is going to sign Duggan vs Krusher for next week right here on Mid South!

It's January so it would only feel right we have a Royal to determine the number one contender, glad it was Duggan, booking Mid South it would be easy to just have JYD at the top of your card always.

 

Fantastics vs Adonis/Murdoch is something I could watch all day long, even if no team is on the Fabs level.

 

Blanchard is not only a premium player but a snake too, so was glad to see him not only cheat but then get his comeuppance moments later.

 

I'd like to see match times if I was to give any format feedback for your TV, even if just a round number.

Duggan vs Flair...wow. VERY interesting idea. I want to see that.

 

Some tag team matches are fun, building that division is certainly worth the time. The problems with Rude/Graham are building, wondering what will happen if that explodes.

 

Good to see Dibiase in action, looking forward to his Superdome contest!

We will have words from the Junkyard Dog and Ted Dibiase, plus the announcement of two big matches to the card for the Superdome Extravaganza on February the 4th! Right now we have action from the double tough Russian… Boris Zhukov!



Boris Zhukov defeated Victor Rivera


-Vince and Ross put over Boris as a tough guy. It appears as though he is regaining some favor. Tonight he looks tough against Victor Rivera. Boris with some big offense and then a nasty bearhug into a slam for the 1…2….3! Boris works the crowd as Ross and McMahon put over how he will be in Krusher Kruschev’s corner this week on MSW when he takes on Hacksaw Duggan!



*COMMERCIAL*



-Power Pro returns with Vince putting over the big battle royal from MSW this week. He then turns his attention to a new tag team on the block. He puts over Rex and Spot… the Moondogs. They are two of the most unpredictable wrestlers in the world. He talks about the two of them being former tag team champions. He cuts to a video of them and then we cut to the ring….



moondogs.jpg



The Moondogs defeated Dennis Stamp & Steve Lombardi


-Rex and Spot aren’t in the best shape in the world, but neither are those bones they come to the ring with. They are mean and ruthless but they work the fans and there appear to be getting a little love. Vince and Ross put them over in a big way and we see an atomic drop by Rex as Spot runs with a big headbutt for the 1….2…3!! The Moondogs work the crowd and they may be on the something here….

Vince then puts over the Fantastics and their big contest with Murdoch and Adonis in the Superdome as we see them in action…



The Fantastics defeated The Shadows


-A nice showcase for The Fantastics as they go move for move with the Shadows. It is a fun little contest with Fulton and Rogers showing some tag team excellence as Ross and McMahon say they will be tough to beat when push comes to shove. The Shadows do alright but the Fantastics are able to finish it off with a Rocket Launcher for the 1…2…3!! Fulton and Rogers show the titles to the fans. They have got a showdown in the Superdome with Adonis and Murdoch… will they be able to keep the gold?

1/23/1984 - Mid South Wrestling Live - Tupelo, Mississippi - Civic Center

Tom Zenk defeated Israel Matia - Zenk is pretty green but a very good looking youngster.

Tracey Smothers defeated Dominic DeNucci - Smothers is a pretty slimy heel right off the bat. He cut a promo right before the match and said Zenk was a goody too shoe pretty boy who couldn't fight to save his life. Zenk shrugged it off but the crowd had some heat.

Steve Williams defeated Raul Castro - Dr. Death really looks good here. He has shrugged off any ring rust.

Adrian Street w/ Miss Linda defeated Brady Boone - The fans were pretty turned off by Street's gimmick and he garnered some very good heat.

The Maniac Matt Borne defeated Johnny Rodz - Borne is back in Mid South and he has got some goofy hair and was very "crazy" during the contest.

Krusher Kruschev, Boris Zhukov, & The Russian Nightmare defeated SD Jones, ThunderBolt Patterson, & El Bracero - The Russian Nightmare looks humungous but he's very green. He was only in the contest for 2-3 minutes but did get the pinfall on Bracero with a clothesline that looked to take his head off!

Jose Lothario defeated Rick Rude when Superstar Graham accidentally hit Rude when aiming for Lothario

Mid South Wrestling is coming to you on its Fox Affiliates throughout Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. Action is coming to you tonight from the Irish McNeil Boy’s Club in Shreveport, Louisiana.



BWand_JR.png


Jim Ross: Welcome everyone to Mid South Wrestling! I am Jim Ross alongside Cowboy Bill Watts. Bill… there is no doubt that tonight, history is going to be made with the lineup we’ve got. Tonight we will see Hacksaw Duggan taking on Krusher Kruschev, Bobby Fulton taking on Dick Murdoch, and Ric Flair and Andre the Giant are here!



Bill Watts: This is going to be one of those nights that no one will ever forget!



Ross: Fans tonight we will share another big match signed for that Superdome card on February the 4th… wait just a moment… it is Tully Blanchard… what are you doing out here?



Tully Blanchard: Let me make it perfectly clear to you and the rest of the world…. Magnum TA. You snot nosed punk! You don’t know what it means to be a champion. You took my chance at the NWA title away last week… and lemme tell you something son… you will regret what you’ve done! I am putting it on the line right now… at the Superdome… I want to see you in that ring…



Ross: Wait a minute… wait a minute…



Magnum TA: You ain’t gotta wait too long there Blanchard. If you want a fight, I will bring it right here… RIGHT NOW!



Tully Blanchard: Look at me… dressed head to toe to the 10s jack. You couldn’t afford this outfit if you saved your money for a year boy!



Magnum TA: It takes more than a nice suit to step in that ring Blanchard… anytime… anywhere!



Tully Blanchard: How about this? At the Superdome… I am going to bring me a partner… I doubt there’d be anyone dumb enough to step into that ring with you… Wrestling II already has a match and I know you don’t have too many friends outside of that…



Magnum TA: Funny you say that… I’ve got a buddy who just joined me tonight… he said he’d loved to step into that ring…



-BRUISER BRODY WALKS OUT AND THE CROWD POPS! He and Magnum shake hands and then look at Tully who retreats! Blanchard better have something special up his sleeve… who is going to be his partner?!?! Ross and Watts put it over in a big way as we cut to the ring for King Kong Bundy in action!



ThunderBolt Patterson vs King Kong Bundy w/ Jimmy Hart


-An interesting opening matchup here. We see Patterson come out but then Bundy walks out with Jimmy Hart and he’s joined by Muraco, Masked Superstar, and Paul Jones. Ross and Watts talk about this not being a good thing. SD Jones comes out and joins his partner. Ross and Watts talk about a recent match with Bundy and Wahoo in Houston in which Rick Rude got involved and they wonder if he will tonight. In the match, we see Superstar and Muraco get involved slightly but it is Bundy with a huge Avalanche and then the 1…2….3 in around 7 minutes. He screams at the referee for the 4….5… but then we see SD Jones run into the ring and he attacks Bundy. We have a brawl here as Superstar and Muraco join the fight as all hell breaks loose. It looks to be a beat-down until Wahoo runs out with a strap. He fights off the group as Bundy is being held back! Wahoo and Bundy are heading for a showdown at the Superdome… but what about the others?



*COMMERCIAL*



-MSW returns with Watts and Ross putting over the big opening segments we saw. They talk about a match that is being signed as we speak between S.D. Jones & ThunderBolt Patterson taking on Masked Superstar & Don Muraco! They talk about that match being added along with Tully Blanchard and his mystery partner taking on Bruiser Brody & Magnum TA! They said there will be a complete card revealed later on this evening. They put over the recent issues with Rick Rude and talk about his motives. We then cut to the ring for the next big contest!



El Bracero & Jose Lothario vs Rick Rude & Superstar Graham


-A nice little contest. These guys go about 8-minutes but the underlying factor is that Rude and Graham are not on the same page. We see the classic spot in which Superstar goes for the tag and Rude drops down gives him some sign language! Superstar can’t believe it as he gets up and turns around for Jose Lothario is there for a big superkick and the 1….2…3! Bracero and Lothario look good here. Rude then steps in the ring and he starts to jaw jack with Graham but then we see the whole story unfold as Jimmy Hart comes out with Bundy and they attack Graham! Rude then goes to work on him. Rude picks him up and then hits the Rude Awakening we all know (not the DDT)! Rude has his arm raised with Jimmy Hart… this is a union that has got trouble written all over it! Watts and Ross can’t believe it!



*COMMERCIAL*



-MSW returns with Watts and Ross putting over Rude’s turn on Graham and his joining with Bundy and Jimmy Hart! They turn their attention to the tag team titles and the big showdown in the Superdome between Adonis/Murdoch and the Fantastics. They talk about a preview of the action right here tonight as we cut to the ring…



Bobby Fulton vs Dick Murdoch


-A fun match up with these two men working the crowd and giving the fans a taste of what they will bring to the Superdome. Ross and Watts really put over Murdoch’s ability to wrestle as a singles guy but Fulton may struggle and it appears to be that way. Murdoch controls the contest from the get go, but Fulton is able to get some offense and get the crowd going, but Murdoch is so damn good and he slows the pace down to where he wants it. We see Fulton get one more burst before Adonis comes down but that brings out Tommy Rogers. They is some jaw jacking outside the ring, but it is Murdoch who goes for the Brainbuster but Fulton with a knee to the head and he comes down with a roll up but Murdoch pushes through for the 1…2…3 at the 11 minute mark! The crowd isn’t happy as Murdoch and Adonis have struck. Will they strike again when the titles are on the line?



-Watts and Ross put over the contest and then we see the JYD come down with Andre the Giant. The crowd erupts as Andre and the JYD put over the Superdome. They talk about the big contest between JYD and Dibiase and then the big one with Andre and the Executioner. We then see Ted Dibiase walk out with the Executioner. The crowd isn’t happy to see them as they approach JYD and Andre. They jaw jack and gripe for a moment before Andre tells them to meet him in the ring next week! The crowd pops as Dibiase can’t believe it… he says he will think about it… Ross and Watts put over Ric Flair being in the building when we come back!



*COMMERCIAL*



-MSW returns with Watts and Ross going over the show so far. They talk about next week and the contest with Andre and JYD possibly taking on the Executioner and Ted Dibiase if they accept. They tell the fans to tune in to Power Pro Wrestling this Sunday for an official announcement. They talk about the NWA World Title contest with Duggan taking on Ric Flair and how important it would be for Duggan to bring the NWA title to Mid South. They talk about him versus Krusher Kruschev tonight and how he says Duggan cheated. Let’s see what happens here tonight!



MAIN EVENT


Hacksaw Jim Duggan vs Krusher Kruschev w/ Boris Zhukov


-A hard hitting main event here with two huge bruisers. Boris is outside the ring and he is causing a shit storm. Duggan gets the USA chants going whenever he can but Krusher is all over him. He tosses him outside the ring and distracts the referee for Boris to get in his shots. The crowd is going wild right now but Duggan is trying to fight back the best he can. We get a commercial break right in the middle but when we return Duggan looks to be winding down but we see him build up in a big way. He is nailing Krusher with some huge rights and lefts. He goes to the ropes but Boris grabs his foot and Duggan pulls him up… Krusher runs for a clothesline and he nails Boris. Duggan leaps for a huge flying clothesline and the 1…..2….3!! Duggan with the win but here comes Boris! He is hammering down! Krusher gets up and even Duggan doesn’t have it in him at this point to fight off both men. They tie him up in the ropes and wait just a moment…



Starrcade-1985-Flair.jpg



-IT IS RIC FLAIR! THE NWA CHAMPION IS HERE! The Russians have tied Duggan in the rope and now it is Flair who is hammering away at Duggan and then he is wiping the title in Duggan’s face and just SCREAMING AT HIM! Ross and Watts are going nuts on commentary and then someone jumps out of the crowd! IT IS DOCTOR DEATH STEVE WILLIAMS! He jumps in the ring and backs off Flair and the Russians. Flair is holding the title up and Williams unties Duggan. Ross and Watts are putting this over in a big way. Duggan is helped up by Williams as Flair and the Russians are gloating… more on this next week… check out Power Pro this Sunday with action from Bruiser Brody and Magnum TA, Andre the Giant, Bundy and the Executioner. See you then!

Power Pro Wrestling


Sunday January 29th



vince-mcmahon.jpg



Vince: Welcome everyone to Power Pro Wrestling! I am Vince McMahon and what a night of action we have for you fans. We have got action with Bruiser Brody and Magnum TA teaming up as we saw that they would be in the Superdome on February the 4th. Let’s take a look at footage from this past week’s MSW and see exactly what happened.



-We cut to footage from this past week’s MSW. We see Tully Blanchard calling out Magnum TA and then Bruiser Brody saying he would team with Magnum. We then cut to footage of Brody and Magnum teaming up…



Bruiser Brody & Magnum TA vs Raul Castro & Israel Matia


-McMahon and Ross put this over in a big way. They talk about Brody and Magnum teaming up and wonder who could be Tully Blanchard’s partner. Magnum hits Israel with a huge belly – to – belly suplex and then Brody runs with a huge flying knee drop! 1…2…3 and Brody and Magnum work the crowd. Who will join Tully in the Superdome?



*COMMERCIAL*



-Power Pro returns with Vince McMahon talking about the influx of talent. He puts over some of the stars who have wrestled in Mid South in the past and he says that one man has returned. He puts over Maniac Matt Borne and he talks about his ties with Ted Dibiase, Dino Bravo, and Adrian Adonis. He wonders just where he will fall in his recent return. He talks about how he is unpredictable and perhaps someone who could make some serious waves given the chance.



Matt Borne vs Omar Atlas


­-Borne comes back to Mid South and he looks to be in pretty good shape. McMahon and Ross really put him over as a challenger for the Television or North American championship. Borne is really working the back and before too long we see nice Northern Light’s Suplex for the 1….2…3! Borne looks to be talking to himself and putting his hands through his hair… what does the future hold for this Maniac?



*COMMERCIAL*



-Power Pro returns with Vince McMahon putting over Andre the Giant. He puts over the big contest with the Executioner in the Superdome. He talks about Andre contending for the North American Championship on February the 3rd in Houston. He wonders if he could walk away with the title and defend it in the Superdome. We then get to see him in action.



Andre the Giant vs Johnny Rodz & Dominic DeNucci


- A nice handicap contest here with Andre the Giant. Ross and McMahon say that Andre is without a doubt the favorite against Dibiase in Houston. They talk about how he could walk away with the title and then defend the title against The Executioner. Tonight he handles Rodz and DeNucci pretty good and finishes things when he bodyslams Rodz on top of DeNucci and then butt slams for the 1…2…3! Andre works the crowd as the fans love seeing him.



*COMMERCIAL*



- Power Pro returns with McMahon talking about the big NWA World Championship match. He talks about Duggan’s buddy Dr. Death Steve Williams returning. He says that Williams will be in action this week against Krusher Kruschev. He then turns his attention to the Mid South Television Championship. He puts over Wrestling II and says Scott Casey is looking for return from Starrcade and losing his hair. He says that Casey may want the title and the mask and do whatever it takes to walk about with both.



Brady Boone vs Scott Casey


-A good contest with Casey really looking strong over the recent weeks. Casey works over Boone pretty good and says that Wrestling II is going to lose his title. Casey works over the neck and skull and then he hits the Brainbuster on Boone for the 1…2…3! Ross and McMahon talk about Casey vs Wrestling II at the Superdome. Can Casey get his hands on the gold and put an end to Wrestling II’s reign?



*COMMERCIAL*



-Power Pro returns with Vince putting over the card for the Superdome on February the 4th.

Bruiser Brody & Magnum TA vs Tully Blanchard & Mystery Partner



ThunderBolt Patterson & S.D. Jones vs Masked Superstar & Don Muraco w/ Paul Jones



-Vince continues to put over all the big matches including King Kong Bundy taking on Wahoo McDaniel. He talks about this union between Bundy and the Executioner and puts it over as one of the most terrifying teams in all of wrestling. He says that this week on MSW we will see Bundy and the Executioner team up and they will take on The Junkyard Dog and Andre the Giant! Truly one of the biggest matches in the history of MSW television. We cut to the ring for Bundy and The Executioner in action…



The Executioner & King Kong Bundy w/ Jimmy Hart vs El Bracero & Tom Zenk


- A pretty good squash here as Zenk and Bracero have got some high flying skills but just nowhere near the power of Bundy and the Executioner. Jimmy Hart does a great job outside the ring putting Bundy over and Vince and Ross wonder if Hart will manage the Executioner down the line. In the end we see the Executioner pick up Zenk for a humungous body slam and then Bundy with a splash for the 1…2….3! The crowd is in awe of these two huge monsters and they will team up this week on MSW against the JYD and Andre the Giant in a match you can’t afford to miss! Plus Ric Flair will be in the building as we will be just days away from the Battle for New Orleans live from the Superdome!
