ROSTERS AND TRANSACTIONS

[kevinmcfl]

Usually we go by what wrestlingdata.com or cagematch.com say but they do not always have reports on some of the smaller promotions.  We have made exceptions in the past and I am okay with Bill Ash wrestling through 1990 if everyone else is.  

[rainmakerrtv]

Going to make a bit of a shift of plans, dropping Chaz Taylor for Biff Wellington.

[LastStopTour]

IPW releases Jimmie Lee and signs Pat Rose.

[LastStopTour]

While we are at it, we also release Bota the Witchdoctor.

[LastStopTour]

IPW would like to add Rip Tyler as our Commissioner.

[kevinmcfl]

Since we just make up jobbers names and I am never going to have these guys in any angles, Mid-South releases

JT Southern, Mike Jackson, Rocky King, Scott McGhee, Steve Cox, and Billy Two Eagles.

I am a little ahead in my writing, so you may these guys as jobbers a few more times.

[LastStopTour]

IPW adds:
Johnny Weiss
Prissie Purcell (Female)
Raul Guzman
Tony the Razor Divito (Not of ECW fame)

[kevinmcfl]

I have added Johnny Weiss and Prissie Purcell to your roster.  I cannot add Raul Guzman and Tony DeVito.  Both wrestlingdata.com and cagematch.com have Guzman not wrestling more than 10 matches in any year after 1979 so by our rules he would be retired.  Also, both websites have no evidence of Tony Divito .  They do list Tony DeVito starting in 1992. 

If you can find any evidence that Raul Guzman was still active for more than 10 matches a year in 88, I can add him to your roster.  Also, same goes for Divito or DeVito.  Any evidence that he was active in 88 will allow him to be added to your roster.

 

[LastStopTour]

I'll drop the claim on Raul Guzman because I only found a couple matches for him.

Tony Divito wrestled into 89 that I could find. He was a Chicago area guy - lots of video here https://www.youtube.com/@ArmstrongAlley/videos under Chicago Championship Wrestling. Real name Vito Brancato - he wrote and produced the Chicago Championship Wrestling stuff. Started in 1983 and career lasted at least 9 years.

[kevinmcfl]

I am fine with Tony Divito as long as everyone else is.

[Autistic Dragon]

Cool with me.

[LastStopTour]

Okay, I have a new one for you ... 

Ron Cadman otherwise known as Caveman Broda.

He was busy in 84, then nothing until showing up in 88 for 1 match. He was a little busier in 89 before going wild in 91 until 2002 before slowing down again for matches here and there.

[kevinmcfl]

Caveman Broda is a good find.  He is all yours.

[rainmakerrtv]

And I thought I was the one for the overlooked wrestlers

[Autistic Dragon]

NWA releases Brodie Chase and George South.

NWA signs Scott McGhee, Stoney Burke, Mongolian Mauler and Vladimir Krupoff

[LastStopTour]

I have another pair for you ...

Bob Cook from your '87 Draft isn't anywhere to be found and his cohort in crime that debuted in 1988, Penelope Paradise.

Adding to the ladies, Debbie T. Wild.

[Autistic Dragon]

It has been brought to my attention that between the talent Kev just sent me & my recent signings from Free Agency, I have exceeded the 60 talent cap.

As such, the NWA releases Tom McGee, Ray Candy, Scott McGhee and Vladimir Krupoff. This brings me back to the limit.

[kevinmcfl]

Mid-South adds Ray Candy

[LastStopTour]

IPW makes some changes, dropping: Bob Cook, Frank Morrell, Tony Divito and Tony Falk. 

[LowBlowPodcast]

3. With my manager spot - I am moving Brother Love into that position
4. I am then going to trade Lanny Poffo and Brother Love to AWA for DDP (manager) and Crush

[kevinmcfl]

Mid-South adds the Mongolian Stomper, Moondog Moretti, Shaun Simpson and Spike Huber
