Severn looking a little more Beastly than usual.

Vegas Vengeance is looking great but a couple of points. The Sons of the Beach don't seem to have first round opponents and Eddie is listed in two different matches.

Thanks for the help. Now corrected.

Wow... what a two night event we are going o get in Vegas!  That card has something for everyone and much, much more!

[spaldoni]

If Severn's in beast mode, watch out! 

Modest looks to stand out in single's competition 

Good to see the FOJ back on the winning track 

I have to hand it to Richards; he's become quite focused. Maybe Candido should take notes 

SOB get a good showcase and I'm sure Cornette and the FBI were watching 

Lee gets a prime time win over a former champ 

Busick has done extremely well in our world 

Portland 

Smooth heel move by Richards 

Eddie's determined on staying in title contention 

Big win for Gordy as he takes down the man of means. However, if Dibiase is talking revenge, Gordy better stay on high alert 

Martel's a nice guy but is never afraid to play the heels game when needed. I'm really liking this program with Condrey 

Credit to the FBI for giving Iron and Steel a fight 

Both Kawada and Adams shine against the champ. Adams gets the fall and the next shot but I'm sure Kawada will get another chance as well. 

Eugene 

The Serial Thrillaz seem to be getting the upper hand on the Money Train 

Malenko looked good but that onslaught by Williams sealed the deal 

If Sabu's on the card, the fans now know they're going to see something insane 

Regal's getting into his groove as the submission champ 

Severn's not only in beast mode but he's ready to snap 

Liger once again caps off the weekend with an always exciting LHW title match. 

Vegas Vengeance is loaded. Is it crazy that I'm rooting for Scotty and Richards to win this year's tournament?

Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Oakland Alameda County Arena, Oakland, on ESPN / TSN, April 17^th , 1991

 

Mike Awesome vs. Mikey Bortone

 

While much of the attention that the League Of Gentlemen has been lately directed at Chris Adams and Toshiaki Kawada, Mike Awesome remains a figure of menace to PCW as a whole. Bortone was certainly quaking in his boots , but didn't have long to dwell on it, as Awesome knocked him to the mat with a clothesline and proceeded to mangle the rookie. One Awesome Bomb later and it was all over. The Awesome One remains a big part of why the League have rocketed to the top of the PCW rankings.

 

Pierre Carl Ouellet vs. Stevie Richards

 

Richards was accompanied by Scotty The Body and Tina Ferrari for this match, while PCO was joined at ringside by the Money Train. Early in the match, it seemed like Richards was in danger of losing focus as he took time to mock the Money Train, but Scotty clapped twice and Dancin' Stevie got back to business. PCO was, of course, all business, and landed some heavy blows and big slams , but Stevie showed considerable resilience as he bounced back. Richards gave a good accounting of himself as he came close to landing the Stevie Kick , but it was the last attempt that cost him, as Ouellet took him down with a legsweep. He followed up with a Package Piledriver and got the one two three. Tina was frosty as usual to Stevie after the match, but Scotty was supportive , clapping Richards on the back and telling him it was a good effort. Little by little, Dancin' Stevie seems to be learning.

 

Robert Thompson vs. Alex Wright

 

Speaking of learning, word has it that Alex Wright has gotten orders from both the Sinister Minister and Dean Malenko to "act like a God damned professional", so, apart from a wink as he got to the ring, he did his best to ignore the lovely Trisa Hayes at ringside. His concentration paid off, despite the best efforts from the always tough Thompson. Wright hit a Hangman's Neckbreaker and pulled out the win. He may be full of himself, but Das Wunderkind seems to have the skills to back it up.

 

Chris Hamrick vs. The Lightning Kid

 

This match would be a duel between two of the standouts of the 1990 PCW Rookie Class. Hamrick was a finalist in the Tournament Of Lions, while the Kid has emerged as high end contender to the Light Heavyweight Title. The two engaged in the proverbial game of human chess, matching move and counter move, each of them coming close but not quite getting that decisive three count. They kept at it until the bell rang, signaling a 10 minute time limit draw. A tight battle between two up and comers, and you can sure they are going to be wanting a rematch.

 

The Force Of July (The Patriot & The Eagle) vs. Joel Anderson & Chet Welch

 

The FOJ were clearly disappointed to have lost the Golden State Tag Team Titles to Coast 2 Coast at Aloha Spectacular. The still have the love of the fans, though, and are dead set on getting the titles back. They easily rolled over the opposition, with the Patriot levelling Welch with the Patriot Missile. They will get their rematch at Vegas Vengeance, and Tatum and Victory had best be ready for them.

 

Toshiaki Kawada vs. Steve Blackman

 

Ever since losing the Submission Title to Steven Regal, Kawada has been on a reign of terror up and down the West Coast. The Living Weapon steps in the ring determined to not be the next victim. Blackman gave as good as he got for most of the match, fighting the Japanese Nightmare kick for kick and hold for hold. Then, out of nowhere, Kawada stunned Blackman with a lightning quick roundhouse kick to the head, then finished him off with a brainbuster. Another brutal victory for Kawada. The question now is not when he's going to stop … but who is going to stop him?

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Cow Palace , San Francisco,  on Pacific Super Cards on ESPN / TSN, April 18^th , 1991

 

Shane Douglas vs. Dean Malenko

 

A close match that went to Malenko when he pinned Douglas with the Natural Bridge.

 

Bobby Horne vs. Chris Candido

 

Candido worked hard to shut out the "Crybaby" chants and was able to get the win over Horne with the New Jersey Jam.

 

The Miracle Violence Connection vs. The Oregon Wrecking Crew (Gary Albright & David Young)

 

Another brutal battle with Williams pinning Young following the Oklahoma Stampede.

 

The Thrillseekers vs. The FBI

 

Cornette sent his junior team against Jericho and Storm, and while the FBI gave the Canadians quite a battering, Storm was able to force Little Guido to tap out to the Maple Leaf Leglock.

 

Iron & Steel (Tony Atlas & Larry Cameron) & Big Bully Busick vs. The Midnight Express

 

The match was crazy from bell to bell, and ended in chaos, when Cornette tossed his tennis racquet to Bobby Eaton, who used it to clobber Cameron. Condrey then followed up with the Full Nelson Facebuster and get the win for the Midnights.

 

Pacific Heavyweight Cage Match : Bret Hart © vs. Ted Dibiase

 

An absolute war where both men were bloody for much of the match.  The match ended in spectacular fashion with Bret coming off the top of the cage to hit a Flying Bulldog and take down Dibiase for good.

Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Selland Arena, Fresno, April 19^th , 1991

 

The Sons Of The Beach (The Sandman & Cannonball Grizz) vs. The Serial Thrillaz (Shane Helms & Mike Maverick)

 

An intense match with the Surfing Superstars getting the win over the fast rising rookies by putting down Helms with the Beach Break (stuff Power Bomb).

 

Tommy Dreamer vs. Chris Adams

 

In his last match before his title shot at Vegas Vengeance, Adams defeated Dreamer with the Superkick.

 

Sgt. Slaughter & Roddy Piper vs. Sabu & Rob Van Dam

 

As can be imagined with these 4, this was pure chaos that ended in a No Contest with everyone brawling outside the ring.

 

Dan Severn vs. Al Snow

 

Severn got the tap out with a Guillotine Choke and nearly refused to let it go, but got a grip on himself and released it before the ref reversed it into a DQ.

 

Golden State Tag Team Title Match : Coast 2 Coast (John Tatum & Jack Victory) © vs. Jason Jett & David Cash

 

The Money Train gave quite a challenge to the champs, but the experience of C2C proved to be the difference as Victory pinned Cash with the Victory Plex.

 

Pacific Light Heavyweight Title Match : Jushin Liger © vs. Too Cold Scorpio

 

A fast paced and exciting title match with Liger coming out on top with a top rope Frankensteiner.
