A music video with generic 80’s type music shows clips of the events. When we return to the arena and the NWA-MACW set, NWA World’s Champion Ric Flair talks with Tony and David. He shows off the beautiful 10-pounds of gold. Flair is all smiles and bragging that he is STILL the man, and still the champ! David Crockett takes great pleasure as he informs Flair that a rematch for the World Title has been signed for The Omni in Atlanta on October 21, and the rematch will happen inside a steel cage! Flair flips out at the news as Bob Backlund comes to the ring for his match. Bob Backlund defeated Pete Sanchez in a quick 4 minute match. Ric Flair stays at the set, and is furious at the news of the steel cage match. He storms off the set as Backlund finishes the match. COMMERCIAL BREAK 1 Tony and David tell us that some new wrestling talent have come into Mid Atlantic, and the first of those names is Mr. Wrestling II. He is up next in action. Mr. Wrestling II defeated Ray Apollo in 6 minutes to earn the victory. As we return to the set, we see Tony is joined by the new NWA World Six-Man Tag Team Champions, The Hart Brothers.

kevinmcfl Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 Love the 60 minutes matches between Flair and Backlund. They would be classics. I think they did the same thing a couple of times in Florida Championship Wrestling. I am interested to see how far you go with aging Mr. Wrestling II and Rock Johnson. I think they are both popular enough to pull off almost anything even though their bodies might begin to break down. I am also very interested to see where you go next if Backlund doesn't capture the title. You have a lot of good babyfaces that would be Main Events anywhere in the country with Flair. From TA to Windham to one of the Harts. Should be fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEdger Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 Great slate of shows. Obviously, given that I wanted Tully vs Superstar to be featured on Lutte in closed circuit, you know that this is my favorite feud of the moment for you. Plus Flair vs Backlund. You're doing way more that I could do with Backlund on Lutte! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentofenton Posted October 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 Just as a note: I in error had a match originally listed on 10/7 with Tully Blanchard. But I had him with Lutte Wrestling that day. That was my mistake in trying to catch up, I remembered to keep Superstar Graham off the show, but I put Tully on it.. I have since changed it to with an replacement announced. Sorry for the screw up, and thanks for pointing it out to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEdger Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 No problem. I simply edited that part in my house show recap to fit what you had just written in yours. Wasn't like it was that big of a deal, we both stated that it was a bloody brawl so that all that really matters in the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Crockett is “on assignment” this week and Bob joins us on World Championship Wrestling. A big show ahead and they start it off with a run down of the top two matches announced for the big show in Atlanta at the Omni. Two big time steel cage matches, as Tully Blanchard will defend his title against “Superstar” Billy Graham. On World Wide Wrestling this week, you will see footage from an event presented by Lutte International, in which Graham and Blanchard had a bloody non-title brawl. The other steel cage match signed will be for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship, a rematch from Fall Brawl as well, with Bob Backlund challenging Ric Flair. These two almost went head to head last week, and both men will be on the show today! The Fantastic’s pick up the win over Steve Lombardi and Dusty Wolfe in 4 minutes. While this match was going on, The Grappler’s make their way to the set, and Tony interviews them as the match finishes.

They say they will start to get the respect they should have, and they will soon take those World Titles from the Fantastic’s. COMMERCIAL BREAK 1 Paul Jones is with Tony when we return from break.

He wants 2 under contract. He shows Mr. Wrestling II a folder with papers inside it. 2 looks at it, and shakes his head approvingly. They shake hands and it looks like we have a deal made. COMMERCIAL BREAK 3 Tony is with Rocky Johnson. Rocky is not a new to the NWA, but is relatively new to the Mid Atlantic region. He tells Tony that he watched when he could. He remembers watching a little of Sweet Ebony Diamond, he liked that guy (insert big wink here). Rocky wants competition and knows that he will find it here in Mid Atlantic. Rocky Johnson defeated Dennis Stamp COMMERCIAL BREAK 4 Magnum TA defeated Paul Roma in a non-title match. Magnum visits with Bob at the set. Bob asks what is next for the United States Champion.

Magnum is ready for any and all challengers. COMMERCIAL BREAK 5 Mr. Saito defeated Jim Powers Mr. Fuji is with Tony at the set. He once again tells the world that his charge, the evil Great Kokina challenges Andre The Giant to a match. Anywhere, and anytime. Kokina isn’t afraid of Andre, and IF Andre accepts, Kokina will end his career. COMMERCIAL BREAK 6 Tony and Bob welcome us back as the NWA World Heavyweight Champion joins us on set. He is calmer this week. He tells Tony that he was just a little in shock after hearing he has to wrestle that punk again. Especially when it will be inside a steel cage. But Flair isn’t upset. No, he’s the champ baby, he can handle anyone at anytime. He’s the greatest thing going today, WHOOO!! And Flair knows that he will prove it over and over again. Atlanta is his town, whooo!!! Backlund will be sent packing after losing this cage match. One more punk gone from the NWA. Whooo!!!! The Moondogs (w/ Sir Oliver Humperdink) defeated Gary Royal, Italian Stallion & Mike Sharpe. COMMERCIAL BREAK 7 Bob Backlund defeats Mr. Fuji in the main event of the TV show. Backlund wins with a high Atomic Drop to pin Fuji.

LowBlowPodcast Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 That October 21st taping could have been main evented by any of those matches. I personally liked the six-man and was very surprised by the outcome. I know you don't get a lot of time to do this but when you do, you definitely do some serious work.

Eight-Man Tag Team Main Event Match NWA World Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair, NWA Television Champion Tully Blanchard & NWA United States Tag Team Champions Ray Stevens & Pat Patterson (w/ JJ Dillon) defeated Kendall & Barry Windham, “Superstar” Billy Graham & Bob Backlund October 25, 1984 World Championship Wrestling TV Taping (Airing 10/27) Fisherville, VA Augusta Expo We open the show with Tony Schiavone & David Crockett on the NWA MACW set. They go right to clipped footage from The Omni. We see partial clips of the ending of the two steel cage matches. Not the actual endings, but where the video stops before a big spot, and the audio continues on for a moment. The last image we see is Flair, Blanchard, Stevens, Patterson & Dillon standing tall inside the steel cage over Backlund’s body showing off their championship belts. As we cut back to the stage with Tony and David, these four men with JJ Dillon arrive on the scene. All of them showing off their championship gold. So proud of themselves. Tony welcomes them to the show. JJ starts off first, proclaiming his predictions to be true. He has secured the greatest talent the WORLD has ever seen. Ric Flair takes over, announcing that not only does JJ have the United States Tag Team Champions under his tutelage, but he also has the contract of the greatest Television Champion of all-time in Tully Blanchard. Flair is happy to announce to the entire world that JJ also has secured the managerial contract of the NWA World’s Heavyweight Champion, Ric Flair. Whooo!! Tully steps up, and that means that we control ALL the gold in the NWA. They are not only the cream of the crop, they are 24-Karat baby. JJ steps back in and says that Tully Blanchard Enterprises has merged into the new conglomerate, simply known as 24-Karat. Simple right? You want in? Wear championship gold. They all strut back to the locker room. Tony and David discuss this new super group that has risen in the NWA as we go to the ring. Butcher & Mad Dog Vachon defeated Terry Gibbs & Rene Goulet. COMMERCIAL BREAK 1 Int. Bob Backlund comes out the set. He is not happy about the situation in Atlanta, and has already petitioned the Board of Directors for a rematch. He knows it is unlikely, as he already had a rematch, but he feels that the situation surrounding the steel cage match, will make it a fair enough argument to grant the rematch. Mr. Pogo (w/ Mr. Fuji) defeated Gary Royal COMMERCIAL BREAK 2 Pedro Morales defeated Jason Knight Int Mr Fuji once again challenges Andre the Giant to battle his monster Great Kokina. He offers up a number of options...pick the time, pick the place. COMMERCIAL BREAK 3 Mr. Fuji & Toru Tanaka defeated Pete Sanchez & Italian Stallion Tony and David discuss the Omni show once again. They show clips from the other matches. We go to commercial break. COMMERCIAL BREAK 4 Int The Hart Brothers come out to the set with David. They discuss their title defense on WCW next week against Larry Zbyszko & The Bolsheviks. Paul Jones’ boys are a tough challenge, but they will show the world that the Hart’s can handle any and all competition. Jay & Jules Strongbow defeated Paul Roma & Ray Apollo COMMERCIAL BREAK 5 Grappler #2 defeated Swede Hanson Int. Paul Jones is with Tony and he is happy as can be. He predicts that his boys will win the World Six-Man Tag Team Titles next week. He talks about getting Mr. Wrestling II a title match, and he has picked the United States Championship as that title. He challenges Magnum TA. He calls upon their past, he knows that Magnum still wants some of II, and II will give his protege his last lesson. Just accept the challenge. COMMERCIAL BREAK 6 Paul Jones is still with Tony, and Mr. Wrestling II has joined them. He wanted to come out and make the challenge himself. Wrestling II wants to end the reign of Magnum himself. However, Rocky Johnson walks out to the set to a decent pop. He says he has a challenge of his own, for this week on World Wide Wrestling, and he wants to challenge Wrestling II to a rematch from Atlanta. He knows II loaded up that mask of his and used it to cheat to win. II denies that, and says he’s already defeated Rocky. He has nothing to prove. Rocky says that he will get his revenge, but he’s a fair man. Name your price. Paul Jones steps in and says II will accept the challenge, if Rocky puts his wrestling career on the line. II defeats Rocky on World Wide, Rocky leaves the NWA. Rocky is shocked, and pauses, thinking it over. Magnum TA comes out for his match, but he stops by the set. Magnum offers that he’ll be in Rocky’s corner to keep Paul Jones at bay. Rocky accepts. Magnum says he’s looking forward to watching Rocky get some revenge. Magnum TA defeated Tiger Chung Lee in a non-title match. COMMERCIAL BREAK 7 Int Sir Oliver Humperdink He comes out pissed off. He is not a happy man. His boys didn’t win back the Six-Man titles. He brings out The Moondogs. Before they even get to the set, Spot & Rex turn on Moretti and destroy him in the aisle and entrance area. Humperdink tells Tony that he blames Moretti for their loss. He was always the weak link. He is firing Moretti right there on the spot. They leave their former partner laying right in front of the set. NWA TV Title Match Tully Blanchard defeated Kendall Windham with 30 seconds left in the match with the Slingshot Suplex.

They show a couple of photo stills from all the championship matches Grappler #1 defeated Gary Royal COMMERCIAL BREAK 2 “Superstar” Billy Graham defeated Mr. Pogo Graham has a moment with Johnny Weaver. He’s not through with Tully Blanchard, or that new group 24 Karat. Don’t you worry, the Superstar is going to take Tully down. Mr. Wrestling II (w/ Paul Jones) defeated Rocky Johnson (w/ Magnum TA) in a very controversial match. The Bolsheviks rushed out during the contest to battle with Magnum. He tries to fight them off, but they drag him off to the locker room. During the commotion, Rocky tries to leave the ring, but II gives him a low blow. The referee misses the cheap shot. II loads the mask again, this time dropping a headbutt from the second rope to gain the victory. Rocky Johnson must leave the NWA. This match began before the last commercial break, and finished in the last segment. Mr. Wrestling II and Paul Jones celebrate at ringside as we go off the air.

SirEdger Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 I think I'm gonna like 24-Karat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinmcfl Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 I agree. 24-Karat...aka the New Four Horsemen are going to be fun. Looking forward to see who steps up as the next major threat to Flair.... will it continue to be Backlund or is it TA's turn. Maybe Superstar or Windham. 24 Karat will have their work cut out for them if they are going to keep the World title and the TV title.

agentofenton Posted November 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 October 31, 1984 World Championship Wrestling TV Taping (Airing 11/3) Ashville, NC Civic Center Tony and David welcome the audience to the show. They immediately bring out Mr. Wrestling II with Paul Jones. You can see the cockiness just oozing from them. Tony sends up to a clip from the end of World Wide Wrestling. We see the highly controversial victory that sent Rocky Johnson out of the NWA and Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling. Paul Jones and MW2 just laugh at the footage as we cut back to them. They don’t even have words to say, they are enjoying this so much. But then, all of a sudden, their mood changes. They start to flip out on set. Tony says that we are going to our first match, with a debut. Sweet Ebony Diamond defeated Swede Hanson in 3:26. Mr Wrestling II is not pleased at all! Paul Jones and II are screaming and throwing a fit on set. They are demanding that the cops be brought to ringside and have this guy arrested and sent to jail. They claim he is Rocky Johnson, but Tony and David play it off as this is not him. He is the newest signed talent to Mid Atlantic. Paul Jones and Mr. Wrestling II leave the set as the match ends vowing to get a hold of their attorneys about this. COMMERCIAL BREAK 1 The Grappler’s defeated Dennis Stamp & Rene Goulet The Fantastic’s are out with David. They discuss their upcoming title defenses in North Carolina this weekend, as they have a Texas Tornado match against The Grappler’s and a 2 out of 3 falls match against Mr. Saito and Toru Tanaka as well. They plan on keeping the titles through any kind of title defense. COMMERCIAL BREAK 2 Killer Khan defeated Pete Sanchez in 45 seconds. After the match, Khan beats on him a little more before tossing him from the ring. Sir Oliver Humperdink comes to the set, pleased with his charges win. He’s very happy with the destruction that Killer Khan has been delivering. He tells Tony that Magnum TA is next. COMMERCIAL BREAK 3 NWA World Six-Man Tag Team Title Match The Hart Brothers defeated Larry Zbyszko & The Bolsheviks. This match went during one commercial break. The finish saw the Bolsheviks miss a double-clothesline on Owen, instead hitting Larry, sending him to the floor. During the Chaos, Keith dropkicked Nikolai out of the ring on the other side, and Bruce rolled up Boris with a school-boy for the win. COMMERCIAL BREAK 5 (4 was during the Six-Man Tag) Tony welcomes Bob Backlund to the set. Tony asks if the Board of Directors has said anything about his petition to a rematch against Ric Flair. Backlund explains that a response would be coming very soon. Backlund leaves MACW soon to head back to Lutte International, but he hopes that a compromise can be made so he can get a fair rematch for the NWA World Title. Bob Backlund defeated Tiger Chung Lee COMMERCIAL BREAK 6 The Great Kokina (w/ Mr. Fuji) defeated Salvatore Bellomo Mr. Fuji gloats about his monster easily defeating his opponent’s. They once again challenge Andre to a one-on-one contest. Andre has sent a pre-taped interview that says he will be at Starrcade ‘84, but it won’t be in a single’s match. However, he will be in Raleigh, NC on 12/27...and he has an open contract for Kokina to sign, for a one on one match. Fuji accepts and will sign that contract. COMMERCIAL BREAK 7 The Fantastic’s defeated Mike Sharpe & Steve Lombardi in a non-title match END OF TV TAPING NWA United States Champion Magnum TA, Barry Windham, Superstar Graham & Bob Backlund (replacing Kendall Windham) defeated NWA World Champion Ric Flair, NWA Television Champion Tully Blanchard & NWA US Tag Team Champions Ray Stevens & Pat Patterson (w/ JJ Dillon) in a Bunkhouse Brawl in 36:39.

kevinmcfl Posted November 11, 2016 Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 Sweet Ebony Diamond...... I Love it! This is one of my favorite angles from wrestling when I was a kid. Whether it was Tommy Rich as Mr. R or JYD as Stagger Lee or Rhodes as the Midnight Rider. PERFECT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
