SirEdger Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 Obviously a smart move to book Dino in the main event in Montreal with Hogan. Considering that IRL, Vince never booked a title match for Dino in Montreal because he was way more over than Hogan, I can definitely imagine the crowd coming unglued for this main event at the Forum!

GeneJackson95 Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 These Savage and Gino had to be off the charts fun stuff. Rumble in the Bronx is a great card, Fabs vs. Demolition in a cage will be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spaldoni Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 Great things coming in 86! I'm liking the build of Curt Hennig. I noticed he got a pretty good win over Hercules. Will he join up with Heenan??? Hernandez vs. Windham should be a lot of fun. Can't wait to see what's in store for Stan Hansen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 Bravo in Montreal is such a smart move. I wonder if Heenan and Hennig would be a good fit. Seems like a reach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mercenaries w/ Mr. Fuji defeated Jean & John Blackfield Gino Hernandez defeated Tom Shaw Barry Windham: I got a very important message at my home last week that told me in order to get an IC title shot… it comes down to me and Gino Hernandez.

They also put over the big MSG show on January 20th throughout the show highlighting the big Special Battle Royal with 30-men and the tag team cage match! Sting defeated Jose Louis Rivera -The new kid on the block. He was known as the Blade Runner and continues to be known as that and Sting. No clear name but his intensity is real. He handles Rivera well enough here and finishes with a big splash in the corner and then goes up top and leaps for a big splash off the top for a roll up and 3-count! The crowd pops for the face painted phenom! Hercules w/ Slick defeated Bob Bradley -Hercules comes out with a new manager… (is that the 3rd in a couple of months?)

Jesse puts over how Hennig is in the King of the Ring Tournament in February… but more importantly he is in the eye of Bobby Heenan! Jesse says that Hennig would be smart to take Bobby’s offer and become the newest member of the Family! Hennig with the bridging suplex one more time here and he looks sharp and ready to strike! The British Bulldogs defeated Los Conquistadors -Davey Boy and Dynamite are back to a big ovation from the crowd.

Jesse, this is indeed a happening… a new show… a special one hour edition here tonight… Jesse: All too often we see some of our top stars against up and comers… but tonight, we have got three matches that could main event any arena anywhere in the world Gorilla!

Gorilla: And our big main event… the Intercontinental Championship is on the line… Dino Bravo challenges Randy Savage! Jesse: Savage has got a lot on his mind… he may be overlooking Dino but I doubt it… the champion is the best and there’s a reason! Gorilla: Plus, we will see the WWF Champion… Hulk Hogan! Right now let’s head to the ring! Bret Hart vs Greg Valentine w/ Jimmy Hart -Howard Finkel with the announcing here of both men. Jimmy Hart has got this crowd riled up in a big way! Valentine and Bret give the viewing audience on the USA Network a better glimpse at what the future of the WWF is going to look like. These guys pick up the pace for 12-minutes and they work their asses off. Gorilla and Jesse put it over in a huge way and talk about the possibilities of the Hart Foundation without Jimmy. We see both men get some offense but it is the heat that Valentine gets after working over Bret’s knee. He is looking to finish but Bret is able to break free. Bret is able to get some offense in and then an inverted atomic drop that pops the crowd as Valentine sells. Jimmy Hart gets up on the apron and distracts Bret but here comes Valentine and Bret ducks and tosses him into Jimmy and then grabs Valentine for a 1….2….3 roll up and victory! The crowd pops and Bret Hart rolls out of the ring. He walks over to Jesse and Gorilla up the aisle. -Gorilla and Jesse then interview Bret who puts over the match. He doesn’t have the skills to pay the bills yet but he gets it done and the shot of Valentine being escorted back by security is well worth it! *COMMERCIAL* -Gorilla and Jesse are back and they put over the big issue between Barry Windham and the Heenan Family. They put over the NO DQ Match from MSG. They talk about how the team of Hernandez and Rude have been together before… but they didn’t have much luck then when they faced Windham and Santana for the tag titles. Barry Windham & Manny Fernandez vs Gino Hernandez & Rick Rude w/ Bobby Heenan -One of the real highlights here as this contest has got a lot of history. Windham has been at odds with the Heenan Family for quite sometime and tonight he gets his buddy Manny to help him out. This one is a fun 8-minute contest but it is Bobby Heenan who shines. He is outside the ring stirring up the shit and causes Windham to miss a tag to Manny when Fernandez is watching Heenan instead of the action. Windham ends up getting the big tag to Fernandez who comes in and hits the ropes as Windham is slow to his feet and then Fernandez NAILS WINDHAM WITH THE FLYING FOREARM! OMG! Windham is knocked out as Rude, Hernandez, and Fernandez lay the boots to him. They are stomping and kicking away as Gino picks him up for a SLINGSHOT SUPLEX! The crowd is going nuts here. Fernandez then picks up Windham with Rude and they deliver a SPIKE PILEDRIVER! OH MY! Windham is laid out as we see Bull Ganter and Superstar Graham along with Tito Santana run out as the heels walk off. They join Jesse and Gorilla... -Jesse and Gorilla put over the action. Jesse is all about it and he is shaking everyone’s hands. Heenan is going wild putting over the Family. He says that Gino Hernandez is OFFICIALLY joining the King of the Ring tournament next month and he will win! He puts over King Kong Bundy and says that with the Ragin Bull, the Family is all but complete. There is one more spot and it belongs to Curt Hennig. He says that Hennig is the prime choice and he should be where he belongs. We see Windham being helped to the back and Prime Time has been explosive so far… when we come back… we will hear from Hulk Hogan! *COMMERCIAL* -We are back and at the announce booth Gorilla and Jesse welcome in Mean Gene Okerlund and the WWF Champion… Hulk Hogan!! Mean Gene: Hulk, welcome in here to WWF Prime Time Wrestling! Everyone wants to know just how you are feeling after the recent attacks from King Kong Bundy and just recently Stan the Lariat Hansen! Hulk Hogan: Well lemme tell you something Mean Gene. The last couple of months have been tough brother. I have had my ribs broken. I had my throat crushed by Hansen. Well brother… I am here… I am saying… come and get some more brother! Mean Gene: A lot of rumors are circulating… saying that Ted Dibiase purchased a bounty on you and Stan Hansen cashed it in. That along with the money he gave Bobby Heenan for the services of King Kong Bundy. Hulk… is the target on your back bigger than ever? Hulk Hogan: Mean Gene when you’ve got this title right here… this is the biggest target in the WWF brother. I am standing here saying come and test me! Stan Hansen, I know you from Japan brother. You and I have traveled the road brother…. And I am here saying you came to the WWF and brother the rules have changed. I am throwing it down right now… I don’t want to wait… I want to see you in that ring! Mean Gene: Hulk Hogan and Stan Hansen… surely that can be something special for the… wait just a moment… what in the… -HANSEN IS HERE! He comes out throwing that cowbell around and Hogan rips off his shirt! Gorilla and Jesse are putting this over as officials and agents run out. Pat Patterson gets rocked with a nice right hand from Hansen but other than that… nothing happens. Hogan and Hansen are jawing at one another and being held back! *COMMERCIAL* -We are back and Jesse and Gorilla are putting the night over in a big way. They announce that on February the 8th, at Saturday Night’s Main Event… it will be Hulk Hogan and Stan Hansen one on one! We will hear from both men more next week! We are going to finish things off with a big Intercontinental Championship contest… let's head to the ring. INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP Dino Bravo vs Randy Savage w/ Elizabeth -A good finale on what has been an awesome night of action, matches, and angles. This one goes 11-minutes and it is a great showcase of both men. Savage is still heel and acting like it. Jesse is putting him over in a big way and says he should be next in line to face Hulk Hogan for the title. Gorilla agrees but also says that Savage has to hold on to the title and Bravo is putting forth a great effort tonight. The big moment sees Dino Bravo hoist up Savage over his head and toss him on the other side of the ring! Bravo comes with some big clotheslines and Savage goes out of the ring to the floor. Bravo comes to follow but Savage is able to counter and get the upperhand. He lures him back into the ring and sets him up for a big double axe-handle smash but goes for another and Bravo catches him! He puts him up in the airplane spin and Savage is out of it! Dino is looking to finish with the sidewalk slam but Savage goes behind and rolls him up with a handfull of tights for the 3-count! Savage steals it! He grabs the title and shows the world that he is willing to do whatever it takes to keep the title. -Jesse and Gorilla put the night over one more time. They talk about Savage and Bravo and Savage’s ability to keep the title. They put over the issue with Fernandez and Windham. They talk about how next week we will see the British Bulldogs right here on Prime time along with Tito Santana taking on Nikolai Volkoff and Billy Jack Haynes vs King Kong Bundy in the main event!

gordi Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Is it true that, in Albany, they call Stan Hansen "Steamed Ham-sen?" Your layout, your use of photos, and the quotes from the announcers perfectly cover what I imagine a Prime Time Wrestling episode would feel like in this world.

LowBlowPodcast Posted January 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 I appreciate all the feedback fellas. That's good to know you guys are reading and like the direction I'm going. I'm going to get around this weekend to getting more in-depth with everybody stuff and providing more feedback it's just been crazy with school starting back up. I think that we are on the verge of something really exciting and 1986 with everything and hopefully Primetime can be one of those fun events that will be a weekly staple. I do think that while the WWF did go with Monday Night Raw, in this era they missed out on the big time TV shows and studio tapings like world class or wcw.

spaldoni Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Great debut of Primetime! I'm loving Hansen as the current foe for Hogan. Hansen always brings something big to the table and is a legitimate threat to Hogan. What a heel turn by Fernandez! The Awesome Twosome are together. Bret Hart is getting his moments to shine. That sneaky Savage steals another one LOL. 1986 is going to be a great year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Before I go on to details I want to say that your presentation of the WWF is really great. It takes all of the fun things about the WWF of the time and uses them. But it also fixes a lot of the shit aspects of it. No 20 minute draws between guys nobody wanted to see anyway to fill time. You find ways to put guys out there who have things going on, which is huge. Prime Time is a huge success. And given the way Lutte and MACW have been performing the WWF would have had to step up their game to keep their status. Hansen vs. Hogan is easily one of Hogan's best matchups ever, looking forward to it. Fernandez turning would have made the Heenan family into probably my favorite stable that doesn't involve the number 4 ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted January 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 WWF Presents: Wrestling Challenge Hosted By: Gorilla Monsoon & Bobby the Brain HeenanMatches from: Allentown, PA – Agricultural Hall -Gorilla and Bobby put over the premiere episode of Prime Time. They talk about all the big matches and continue to put this week’s episode with the British Bulldogs in action along with Billy Jack Haynes taking on King Kong Bundy. Heenan says that he has got Gino Hernandez primed for the King of the Ring. They put over how this year’s King of the Ring will be an eight-man tournament but the highlight will be that Randy Savage will have to defend his crown against the winner. So an individual could wrestle four-matches in one night. Shawn Michaels & Marty Jannetty (The Rockers) defeated Ryan Schmidt & Jim Jones -The Midnight Rockers drop the Midnight are back here in the WWF. The influx of talent over the past couple of weeks has really expanded the WWF. These two looks awesome in the ring and finish things off with a double dropkick on Jones for a 3-count. Sika w/ Mr. Fuji defeated Mike Jones -Sika is back with Mr. Fuji and he looks more dangerous than ever. Hercules & Nikolai Volkoff w/ Slick defeated Brady Boone & Bob Bradley -Hercules & Nikolai make a pretty scary team and they are here with Slick in their corner. He is a pretty jive soul bro and makes moves outside the ring. They beat the piss out of these guys and look good doing it tonight! Brutus Beefcake defeated Marty Casaus -Ol Bruti hasn’t had a ton of love here over the last couple of weeks but he makes some shine here tonight. He finishes off with the sleeper and has all the right things but just maybe not the right time! Demolition defeated John Hawk & Ken Stills -Big time hype from Demolition on the Cage Match on Monday Night in MSG. They are going to rip and shred the Fabulous Ones piece by piece and walk out with the titles!

Bobby Heenan actually walks out and joins Curt Hennig and tries to manage him at ringside. Hennig is shaking things off and when he gets the victory Heenan tries to shake his hand and walks him to the back but Hennig doesn’t seem interested. Jesse says that we have seen the building of the true Heenan Family when Manny Fernandez joined Rude and now Hennig needs to do the same thing! Tito Santana defeated Ken Graves The Hart Foundation defeated Marty Jannis & Kent Stone -We get an inset from Jimmy Hart putting over the issue with the Harts.

LowBlowPodcast Posted January 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 WWF Presents: Prime Time Wrestling Hosted by Gorilla Monsoon & Jesse the Body Ventura Matches from: Allentown, PA – Agricultural Hall -Gorilla and Jesse welcome everyone and put over a big night of action. They talk about the King of the Ring and the big SNME coming up on February 8th. They will reveal the card tonight and we will have special promos from Hulk Hogan and Stan Hansen! They build up the big return of the British Bulldogs as we cut to the ring and they are in action against the team of Kareem and Akeem… the Mercenaries! The British Bulldogs vs The Mercenaries w/ Mr. Fuji -Davey Boy and Dynamite are looking primetime, pun intended for this one. Mr. Fuji has got his men looking big and strong. This is a fun one with all four men getting involved but the Mercenaries strength is second to none. Their combined weight calls for the Bulldogs to pull out all the stops. The finish is a hot one with Fuji getting involved but this causes some misdirection from Akeem and Kareem as they pop heads and then the Bulldogs come with a double clothesline on Kareem sending him over the top to the floor. Akeem charges with a clothesline but they duck and the do a double dropkick but he staggers and then a double suplex and they both cover for the 3-count! The Bulldogs work the crowd as Fuji and the Mercenaries are looking for more! *COMMERCIAL* -Prime Time returns with vignette for Sting. They put over the many faces of the Man Called Sting! -We come back from the vignette with Nikolai Volkoff walking down to the ring and he is joined by a brand new manager. Tito Santana vs Nikolai Volkoff w/ Slick -Slick is out here with Nikolai, they start by trying to sing the Russian National Anthem but the crowd isn’t having it but they do pop when Tito Santana runs out and he gets in his way. We get a fun little 8-minute contest. Jesse and Gorilla are putting over Slick by talking about his involvement with Hercules and Nikolai. Slick is said to be building an army and he is going to take down everyone in his path but Tito Santana has some slick moves that stop all that from occuring. The finish sees Slick up on the apron as Tito hits the ropes and then nails a flying forearm into Nikolai who goes flying into the ropes and Slick goes down. Tito then runs up from behind and grabs Nikolai for a rollup and three count. Tito gets out of the ring while Tito works the crowd. Slick tries to get in his face but this is just a set up for Nikolai to come back out and hammer him from behind! Nikolai holds nothing back in stomping away at Tito until officials come out. Nikolai and Slick get some heat back but this one could be far from over. *COMMERCIAL* Saturday Night’s Main Event VI February 8th Oakland, California MAIN EVENT Hulk Hogan © vs Stan Hansen w/ Ted Dibiase Barry Windham & Tito Santana vs Rick Rude & Manny Fernandez w/ Bobby Heenan The Hart Foundation vs Greg Valentine & Honky Tonk Man w/ Brutus Beefcake vs Don Muraco w/ Mr. Fuji Stan Hansen: I am sick and tired of traveling all over the world and hearing the name Hulk Hogan! Hulk Hogan! Hulk Hogan! Let me tell you something boy. You may be big but I know you are not tough. I am going to beat every single ounce of you within an inch of your life and I am going to take that title from you. I know that is all you are worth and I am going to see that big yellow streak up your back. I am going to ruin you Hogan… I am going to ruin you! Hulk Hogan: Everyone is talking about Saturday Night’s Main Event and just what that means for Hulkamania. Well Stan Hansen you played your hand last week on Prime Time Brother and I am not going to sit here and wait. I am coming on the attack. I am bringing every ounce of Hulkamania with me. I am bringing every single Hulkamaniac into battle with me and Stan Hansen WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN WE RUN WILD ON YOU!!! *COMMERCIAL* -We return to Prime Time with Jesse and Gorilla putting over the night’s action. They talk about SNME and Hogan vs Hasnen along with the other great matches. Jesse really pumps up the Heenan Family right now and says next week that Hercules with Slick will be in action and he will be taking on Brutus Beefcake! Plus we will see the Tonga Kid taking on Don Muraco and in the main event it will be Barry Windham, Bull Ganter, & Curt Hennig w/ Superstar Graham taking on Gino Hernandez, Manny Fernandez, & Rick Rude with Bobby Heenan! MAIN EVENT Billy Jack Haynes vs King Kong Bundy w/ Bobby Heenan -A big time main event with these two men who show off their power and strength early on but it is the cunning of Billy Jack that gets the crowd going wild! Bundy is able to get his hands on Billy Jack and that does tell the story of the contest with Bundy wearing him down but it is Billy Jack who gets the crowd behind him! He comes back with a big fire but it all goes for not as right in the middle of his big flurry Bobby Heenan grabs his leg and then Haynes loses his focus for a moment when Bundy gets a hold of him and AVALANCHE in the corner! Haynes is lumped over and Bundy again with an AVALANCHE and Haynes goes down! We get the 3 count and Bundy looks very strong here. Heenan says this is the next WWF CHAMPION! He says he is going to wipe out Hulkamania forever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted January 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 WWF Live 1/20 New York City, NY – Madison Square GardenRumble in the Bronx! Hosted by Gene Okerlund & Lord Alfred Hayes RUMBLE IN THE BRONX The Fink: Welcome ladies and gentlemen. This next contest is a very special attraction. This is the special RUMBLE IN THE BRONX MATCH! In this contest, there will be 30 participants. Those participants drew at random a number between 1 and 30. In the ring currently are the men who drew number 1 and number 2. Every minute, a new participant will enter the ring, in the order by which the number they drew. Elimination can occur by being thrown over the top rope with both feet touching the floor. The referees also have discretion on the elimination of a participant. It is now time for the RUMBLE IN THE BRONX! Here we go with the Rumble in the Bronx as it is Bull Ganter & Conquistador 2 starting things out. With only 1 minute intervals, this is going to be hot and heavy and we get it started here with some nice action. Ganter is able to manhandle Conquistador 2, but as the buzzer rings, here comes # 3 Conquistador 1! They try to double up on Ganter but nothing doing as the big guy shows off his muscles and then with a double clothesline, he sends both men over the top rope to the floor! Gorilla thinks he won it already but Jesse has to correct him as the buzzer goes off and here comes #4 Sika! Sika makes his way down and he’s a very dangerous man. They do some battle with big time strikes and Sika even gets the upper hand before running for a high knee but Ganter ducks and then tosses him over the ropes and right now the Bull is ruling the ring! Here comes #5 Kareem w/ Mr. Fuji! Managers are allowed to stay ringside and we get the first really big test here for Ganter as the 450 pound Kareem comes down and really barrels down on him. Ganter is in a very bad way as Kareem looks to finish him off with a big splash but Ganter moves out of the way! Bull gets up and hammers as Kareem is backing up and then Ganter with a huge dropkick right to the mush as Kareem falls and then another dropkick to the back and Kareem goes over the ropes to the floor! Bull Ganter is gassed and it is time for number 6! #6 Rick Rude runs down to the ring and he is like a pit bull on Ganter. He is throwing some big time bombs and really wearing him out. He even picks him up for a piledriver and NAILS IT! Rude gets up and he is posing as Heenan is yelling at him to eliminate Ganter. Rude picks him back up and goes for another PILEDRIVER but Ganter counters and tosses Rude who goes over the top but not to the floor! The time is running down and here comes #7 Gino Hernandez! Another member of the Heenan Family and here comes Gino! It is a 2 on 1 and they are wearing down the Bull. Some big time rights and lefts and stomps as they are wearing him down. They toss him to the ropes and go for a double clothesline but Bull ducks and then he comes back with a follow through clothesline and he drives both men over the ropes but they don’t go to the floor! Gino sneaks under the ropes and waits in the wings while Rude and Ganter struggle before Gino runs and throws Ganter over, along with Rude! Gino is in the ring alone as time is running down for #8 Marty Jannetty! The Rocker Marty Jannetty comes down to join the contest and we get some really good action with he and Hernandez who are almost perfect fits for a fast paced minute of action. Gorilla and Jesse put over the luck of the draw and how this one is almost un-winnable without a high pick. The buzzer goes off and here comes #9 The Honky Tonk Man! Jimmy Hart comes out with his man and you know he still has a sting from the Hart Foundation leaving him. He has also got a big time tag title match tonight inside a steel cage! Honky and Gino double up on Jannetty for a bit before #10 Dino Bravo! The Canadian Strongman comes down to even the odds for all intensive purposes and he does just that with some big time strikes and even a punch that sends Gino over the ropes but not to the floor. The action begins to pick up as the ring begins to fill with #11 Don Muraco comes down to the ring and this are not looking good here for Bravo. Time continues to move quickly and here comes #12 Nikolai Volkoff coming down to the ring. If anything, the managers may end up getting into it out here. Nikolai can match power with Dino and they throw some big time bombs that get the crowd going. #13 Greg Valentine makes his way down and things start to get really bad for Bravo and Jannetty. Gino and Nikolai are doubling on Marty while Valentine and Honky are working over Dino. Gorilla and Jesse put over how there may not be teams but you know people will work together! Here comes number #14 Bret Hart! Hart runs down and he is like a ball of fire! He is hammering away at Honky and then at Valentine! The crowd is getting hot here for Bret and then they really let loose with number #15 Curt Hennig! Hennig runs down and goes right to work. The crowd explodes when Bret nails the Honky Tonk Man with a dropkick and he goes flying out of the ring to the floor! On the other side of the ring Gino Hernandez clotheslines Marty Jannetty and he is out. The timer runs down and here comes #16 Barry Windham! Windham runs down and immediately gets his hands on Gino Hernandez. They are throwing some big time rights and lefts and the crowd is going wild. The time continues to wind down… here comes #17 Akeem from the Mercenaries! This big guy comes in and he is cleaning house. No matter who is in his way he is shutting everyone down! Everyone seems to be bouncing off of this big man as the time runs down for number #18 Sting! Sting is here and the crowd isn’t 100% on who he is but the face paint and the energy really makes a difference! He is making his MSG debut right here tonight and he jumps over the ropes and nails some big rights and lefts and then hits the ropes and a huge dropkick to Akeem and he backs up into the ropes and then he comes with another big clothesline and Akeem goes over the top to the floor! We get a headcount of Gino, Dino, Muraco, Nikolai, Valentine, Bret, Hennig, Windham, and now Sting. These guys do battle for a couple of moments before number #19 Paul Roma. Roma runs down and joins the action. Sting is bouncing around but Gino Hernandez comes from behind and he goes over the top to the floor! The big guy comes in and makes a huge splash but doesn’t last long… much like the timer as here comes number #20 Davey Boy Smith! The Bulldog comes out here and joins the fray with some strikes and he helps out Bret as he and Valentine are battling in the corner. Don Muraco on the other side of the ring is battling it out with Hennig and this one is really action packed. Out comes #21 Jim Powers! Powers comes in and joins his partner Paul Roma. They are doing battle with Volkoff but Nikolai with a very stiff forearm on Powers… but then out of nowhere Roma eliminates him! Powers is looking at him but Roma shrugs it off before Nikolai comes from behind and tosses him! Roma and Powers are arguing outside the ring! Out comes #22 Manny Fernandez! The Ragin Bull comes down and jumps right in. He is helping out Gino Hernandez. The crowd pops when we see Jimmy Hart involved with Bret but then Greg Valentine comes from behind and tosses him out! Bret looks up at Valentine and now he’s distracting him for Davey Boy who comes from behind with a dropkick and Valentine goes over the top to the floor! Bret and Valentine continue to fight on the floor as we see number #23 The Tonga Kid! The returning Tonga Kid runs down and nails some big shots before a big headbutt and out goes Nikolai Volkoff! The crowd is going wild because on the other side of the ring it is Windham and Hennig who almost have Hernandez out as the buzzer goes off for number #24 The One Man Gang! The Gang comes down and he is not messing around. He comes over and grabs Bravo and tosses him out and Manny Fernandez at the same time! Tonga Kid runs at him and Gang with a back drop over the top to the floor and just like that it got very sticky in here! It is Gino, Muraco, Gang, Hennig, Windham, and Davey Boy! The crowd likes the six-man tag aspect of what is going on here as the buzzer goes off for number #25 Tito Santana! Tito runs down and he is really hammering away at Gino Hernandez and then Don Muraco. He and Muraco have had some issues as of late and this is a good reinforcer for their hatred. Their battle ends up costing both men though as just before the buzzer Tito and Muraco tackle each other and go over the top to the floor! #26 The Dynamite Kid runs down and he and Davey Boy are doubling up on the One Man Gang! Gang is fending them off but Gino Hernandez on the other side of the ring isn’t holding on as well. He ends up getting tossed over but pulls Curt Hennig over with him but Gino rolls back inside! Hennig is out as number #27 Hercules makes his way down! Hercules jumps right in and helps his buddy the One Man Gang out with the Bulldogs! Windham and Hernandez continue to fight as the buzzer goes off for number #28 Shawn Michaels! Michaels tries to get involved here but ends up being nothing more than another wrestler at this point. Just like that we get #29 SD Jones! He runs right in and we get some more brawling. We see the strength of Hercules when he hammers SD Jones over the top to the floor! The final timer goes down… here is #30 Jim Neidhart. All 30 men have come in and now we get into the final moments. We see another spectacular elimination when Shawn Michaels gets tossed over the top rope to the floor. On the other side of the ring Gino Hernandez helps Hercules eliminate Jim Neidhart and we are down to our final six. The big moments happen when the Bulldogs double clothesline Hercules over the top to the floor but The One Man Gang comes from behind them and now they are out. It is Windham, Gang, and Hernandez! Gang and Hernandez double up on Windham who comes back with the passion of 1,000 fires. He is giving everything he’s got and even nails a couple of big dropkicks! Windham looks to be in control as he gets up. Gang makes a big charge but Windham ducks and pulls the ropes and he goes flying over the top! Windham gets up but Gino Hernandez dropkicks him in the back and Windham goes over. Gino Hernandez has won it!

He finishes off Billy Jack very similar to the way he beat Dino last week after and nasty throat shot on the ropes and then a roll up with a handful of tights. Andre the Giant vs King Kong Bundy w/ Bobby Heenan -A showdown of the colossal here with Andre and Bundy. This one is a simple 8-minute affair with both men showing strength but Andre being Superior. The finish sees Andre body slam Bundy outside the ring before rolling in for a count out victory as Heenan is irate. WWF CHAMPIONSHIP Hulk Hogan © vs Stan Hansen -A big time contest on a huge stage. This one actually takes place before the Battle Royal in traditional MSG fashion. This one is a wild 14-minute contest with Hogan and Hansen brawling all around ringside. Nothing crazy of note here but the finish is a DQ when Ted Dibiase gets involved. He and Hansen try to double up on Hogan bringing Andre back out to team up with the Hulkster to stop the issue. Hogan and Andre break up the brawl in just enough time to save face. MAIN EVENT CAGE MATCH TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP Demolition vs The Fabulous Ones © w/ Jimmy Hart -Pure pain and destruction. That what occurs in this 17-minute bloodbath. Jimmy Hart is screaming outside the ring for his men who are just getting brutalized and the crowd is going nuts! We see both Kiern and Lane, down and out as Demolition look to go out of the cage but the Fabs find a way to fight back up. Kiern and Lane do put up a fight but it is Kiern who gets up the cage with Smash but then goes out over the top! Kiern is out but Smash looks down as Ax yells at him… Smash comes back in the ring and it is Lane who is at their mercy! Jimmy Hart is almost crying outside the ring! They beat the living hell out of Lane and he is gushing from ear to ear. Demolition hit the Decapitation Device and then make a break for the door. They work the crowd on the way as Ax gets out first but here comes Valentine and Honky! They double up on Ax outside the ring and beat him down. Smash looks to go out of the door but Kiern runs and SLAMS THE DOOR ON HIS FACE! Smash goes back and falls in the ring while Lane is crawling to the door and here comes Kiern to get back in the cage and pull him out! The Fabulous Ones have done it! They have defeated Demolition and retained the Tag Team Championship! They are gushing blood! They are being carried to the back. This is pure chaos!

gordi Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 What a treat to read two Runmble-style matches within a single week. It seems like a real challenge but also a lot of fun to write one of those up... I might run the idea by Giant Baba, see what he thinks. That cage tag match was pure Texas-style mayhem. Much better than the usual WWF escape rules cage match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King of the Mountain and Rumble in the Bronx in the same week! Excellent job with the details and description for the Rumble. I love the way you let the new guys have their moment to shine. Great way to get them over in New York. Roma and Powers arguing was a fun spot. Huge win for Gino! Hogan and Hansen was a great set up with more to come. The cage match was epic! The Fabs manage to pull it out. I wonder who's next for them??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tonga Kid vs Don Muraco w/ Mr. Fuji -Both of these guys are hoping their names are called for the King of the Ring as we see a fun 11-minute contest. Tonga Kid has got a lot of speed and agility which keeps up the pace but Muraco is really got into a grove. We see him catch Tonga who goes for a flying body press and turn it into a modified Tombstone Piledriver that shakes the ring! The crowd audibly AWES with the move and the 3-count. Muraco is looking tough right now! *COMMERCIAL* -Prime Time returns with Jesse and Gorilla joined by Jimmy Hart and the Fabs. The Fabs are still sporting some wraps on their heads. They cut a good promo on the Bulldogs and put over how they have defeated every challenger since they have come to the WWF. They have beat everyone and now the Bulldogs will be next in line. Gorilla asks about the Hart Foundation and Jimmy says they will have to beat Honky and Valentine before ever earning that title shot! They build to the next contest with Brutus Beefcake and Hercules! Brutus Beefcake vs Hercules w/ Slick -Another fun contest but not much for workrate. Brutus is far away from where he could be as a worker and Hercules is on a pretty good run but can’t carry a match. Slick is a fun addition outside the ring but the contest drags a little before a fun finish. We see Hercules go for a full-nelson but Brutus runs him into the turnbuckle and then comes from behind with a rollup and the 1...2...3!!! Brutus sneaks out of the ring with a big victory! Gorilla and Jesse put him over as they talk about the King of the Ring Pairings when we come back! *COMMERCIAL* -We are back with Gorilla and Jesse putting over the pairings of the King of the Ring.

He talks about how much is on the line. He puts over how he is the king of the jungle here in the WWF… he is the head lion… and every once in a while there is another lion who wants to challenge the head one and that’s Stan Hansen. He says it is going to be a brawl to end it all but then… there is also that lion waiting in the background to see what happens. He says that is Ted Dibiase and when the time is right and that lion tries to strike… the pride of Hulkamaniacs will let the Hulkster know and then he will show everyone why he is the true WWF Champion and no one is going to be able to stop him!

MAIN EVENT Barry Windham, Bull Ganter, & Curt Hennig w/ Superstar Graham vs Gino Hernandez, Manny Fernandez, Rick Rude, & Bobby Heenan -A huge main event with a lot on the line. Outside the ring, Superstar just looks like a shadow of himself. Inside the ring, his man, Bull Ganter is a double tough dude with a million dollar body. Speaking of bodies… Rick Rude looks slim and trim. He looks like he is in the best shape of his life and to boot, the Heenan family has got some major heat and Gino Hernandez looks to be in the prime of his career. He and Barry Windham do some great work… but it is Gino and Hennig who blow the roof off the arena tonight. This one gets a full 18-minutes and ends with some chaos. We see Bull and Manny (Ragin Bull)... just explode in the middle of the ring as they fly outside. We see Bobby Heenan try to get involved but Superstar pulls him down and gives him a big right hand! Hernandez runs at Windham with a clothesline but Windham ducks and then Windham runs and clotheslines him over the top to the floor. Rick Rude with a very low knee on Hennig and goes for the Rude Awakening but Hennig counters and backslide for the 1….2...3!! Hennig with the big win and the crowd pops! Hennig and Company celebrate outside the ring while Jesse and Gorilla put this through the roof! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
