spaldoni Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 Good to see Perez get back on the winning track. I like the way he's developing here. Bam Bam is looking strong heading into his show down with Gordy. I'll say it again, Jake with the Freebirds is pretty damn cool. Say what you want about them but the Playboy Club is one cohesive unit. Steamboat and Muraco continue to tear it up. Yamada continues his successful LH Champ reign. Speaking of successful reigns, Gordy has taken on all comers. This time he gets the win over a game Adams. I like what you've done with Flamboyance. They keep moving up the ladder. That Billy Jack/Kabuki match would of been a wild one to watch. Thundercats win the rematch and prove their title win wasn't a fluke. Zenk retains in a draw with Orton. This might be Zenk's toughest challenge. It will be fun watching Orton chase him for the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted May 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Olympic Auditorium , Los Angeles , on ESPN / TSN, May 22nd Jimmy Golden vs. Mark Caruso Jimmy Golden first made his Pacific Coast debut a couple of weeks ago in a six man tag match, but this would be his first singles match. He had both of his Vice Squad partners, Randy Rose and Jimmy Del Ray, I his corner for this match , and the rookie Caruso was quire wary of locking up with him. A wise move that did him no good, as Golden immediately caught him flat footed with a right cross that sent him straight to the mat. Caruso was completely unconscious, so Golden simply put his foot on his chest and had the ref count to three. But this was not enough for the third generation wrestler, as he dragged Caruso up from the mat, only to drive him back down with a post-match piledriver, to the raucous laughter of his partners. Bad news for the Pacific Coast roster, as it looks like where the previous version of the Vice Squad was cocky, the new one is downright sadistic. Leo Burke vs. Jake Roberts Jake Roberts has long been one of the most dangerous wrestlers to grace the ring, but his joining with the Freebirds has proved to be a match made from people's nightmares. His new running buddy Michael Hayes was at ringside and provided a steady stream of trash talk as Roberts took on the tough as nails veteran Leo Burke. Burke, who would be facing the Freebirds at Seattle Showdown along with Chris Adams and Billy Jack Haynes, did his best to shut it all out and keep focused on the Snake, but Roberts kept digging into his bag of dirty tricks to keep the advantage in his corner. But the match would take a strange turn as Eddie Gilbert and Brutus Beefcake made their way to ringside. Gilbert lost a match last week to Buddy Jack Roberts after Roberts and Hayes made unwanted advances on his manager, Missy Hyatt, and was clearly looking to air his grievances. He and Beefcake started jawing with Hayes, and then started arguing with the Snake. Roberts found this all quite amusing, casually tossing out insults to Gilbert and Beefcake, but he should have paid closer attention to the match, as the wily Burke took advantage of the distraction by catching Roberts in a belly to back suplex that got a quick one two three. The furious Roberts and Hayes chased after the cackling Gilbert and Beefcake, who high tailed it back to the locker room. Badd Company vs. Ragin' & Ravishing While a lot of attention has been paid to Missy Hyatt's association with Eddie Gilbert and Brutus Beefcake of late, she is equally dedicated to her young tag team of Pat Tanaka and Paul Diamond. They had a very tightly contested match with the fast rising team or Manny Fernandez and Rick Rude. Ragin' & Ravishing were backed up by their Crazy Gang partner Bob Orton, who wisely chose to ignore Hyatt and just kept his focus on giving advice to his men. The result was a very fast paced bout with the speed and flash of Badd Company matched by the hard hitting ruthlessness of Ragin' & Ravishing. The end came when Tanaka didn't catch a blind tag by Fernandez and leapfrogged the Ragin' Bull, only to run right into a lariat by Rude. One Rude Awakening later, and the win went to the men of the Crazy Gang. A tough loss, but Badd Company still impressed. Bill Dundee & Larry Cameron vs. The Royal Family Dundee and Cameron are gearing up for a big 3 way match for the Pacific Tag Team Titles at Seattle Showdown in a week, but first would have to get past the intimidating Royal Family. Dundee looked to run his fellow Antipodeans ragged, ducking and dodging Boyd and Morgan throughout the match, before ultimately bringing in the big gun of "Lethal" Larry Cameron, who started levelling the exhausted Royals with mighty power moves, finally taking down Boyd with the Harlem Hammer. The Playboy Club may be focused on putting down the upstart Vice Squad, but they would be ignoring the Thundercats contingent at their peril. Pacific Television Title Match : Terry Taylor © vs. The White Angel Terry Taylor has been TV Champ for what seems like forever , but of lately , he has been holding onto it by the skin of his teeth, doing anything to keep from a title loss. He clearly wanted no part of the mysterious Japanese superstars, almost running out of the ring when he opened up with a series of windmill kicks. Taylor was in full retreat for the entirety of the match as White Angel came at him full bore. He finally went for the lowest tactic imaginable as he came off the ropes and, not even looking at Angel, nailed the ref with the Five Arm. This gave the match to White Angel by DQ, but not the title, and Taylor immediately grabbed the belt and held it close to him. But the bad news was not done with Taylor , as it was announced that the title match with White Angel at Seattle Showdown would be under both No DQ and No Countout stipulations. Taylor looked like he was about to throw a tantrum, but instead pouted and stalked back to the locker room. How will he get out of this predicament?

Wahoos Leg Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Seattle Showdown is looking awesome. I'd buy a ticket for the main event for sure. Yamada and Poffo is also a definite sleeper. The whole card is strong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaldoni Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Things are heating up for Seattle Showdown. Vice Squad take on a new demeanor. Watch out Pacific. Gilbert and Beefcake have gotten themselves in hot water with Jake and the Freebirds as Burke takes advantage and pulls out a quick win. Nice tag match as Manny and Rude get a good win over Badd Co. Dundee's experience combined with Cameron's power makes a solid unit. Playboy Club better not underestimate them. Taylor escapes with his title but things might be different at Showdown when he faces the White Angel in a NO DQ or C.O. match. Seattle Showdown is stacked!

rainmakerrtv Posted May 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Was looking for what to do with Jake after splitting him off from Terry Taylor, then it came to me in a blinding flash of light that putting him in the Freebirds was a natural fit.

Zenk did all he could to fight back, but the Superfly was relentless. It looked like it was all over when Snuka went up top for the Superfly Splash, but Zenk was able to roll out of the way at the last moment and Snuka crashed hard into the mat. Zenk was able to catch Snuka in a double leg rollup and barely get the one two three. Zenk was clearly in a lot of pain after this match. Pacific Tag Team Title Match : Buddy Rose & Doug Somers © vs. Bill Dundee & Larry Cameron The Playboy Club pulled out a dirty win when Somers jacked Dundee in the back of the head with a loaded elbow pad.

Ricky Steamboat vs. Grizzly Boone In his last match before facing Don Muraco at Seattle Showdown next week, Steamboat faced off with another of Sheikh Kaissie's men, the big and terrifying Grizzly. Boone gave Steamboat quite a pounding with big power moves and brawling, but Steamboat was able to rally and come back with the Flying Cross Body Press to just barely pull out the victory.

spaldoni Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 Always great to see what's going on at Pacific's house shows. Orton picks up a strong win to show he's still a top contender. Badd Co. gets a good win over Hito and Fuchi in what looked like a gem of a match. Blackwell/Nord and the Untouchables, yea a No Contest seems about right. That poor Ref. WOW! What a match between Zenk and Snuka! Zenk squeaks out the win but is feeling the affects. Are Zenk's days as champ numbered? My guys the Playboy Club know how to get the job done. Bam Bam gets the fall in the 6 man. He's sure got momentum going as he heads for his big time match against Gordy. Flamboyance continues to shine. Perez has been racking the wins up. The Guerreros are one cohesive unit but right now the Vice Squad is to much to handle. Billy Jack looked strong as he pulls out the full nelson win over the always dangerous Kendo. Rude and Fernandez might be in line for a title shot soon. Loved that 6 man fan favorites tag match. Nice to do something different now and again. The match defiantly delivered. I would say after that match with Boone, Steamboat is ready for Muraco. Seattle Showdown is almost here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted June 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 Pacific Championship Wrestling Seattle Showdown from the Kingdome, Seattle, shown on ESPN / TSN Pacific Super Cards, May 29th Eddie Gilbert & Brutus Beefcake vs. The Royal Family The pairing of the second generation Southern star and the wrestler formerly known as Eddie Hogan may have seemed like an unlikely duo at first, but under the watchful eye of their manager Missy Hyatt, they have forged into quite a formidable unit. While recently their focus has been on the unwelcome attention Michael Hayes and the Freebirds have paid to Missy Hyatt, which has not gone over at all well with either her or her men, tonight they had to face the rough and ready Royal Family. Jonathan Boyd and Rip Morgan had been coming off some tough losses and were clearly looking to work out their frustrations on the men of Hyatt International. The rowdy Antipodeans let it all out on Gilbert and Beefcake , blasting them with big lefts and rights as well as some high impact power moves and combinations. But Missy's men weathered the opening assault and were able to regroup, with the "Walking Riot" giving them the encourage and guidance to make a well coordinated comeback, tagging in and out as they chipped away at their aggressive opponents. The Royal Family tried to counter this by double teaming Gilbert, but failed to notice that he was able to tag in Beefcake, who came in and blasted Morgan with the Final Cut. Gilbert tied up Boyd while Beefcake scored the one two three. An impressive win, but time will show if they are ready for their inevitable showdown with the Freebirds. Billy Jack Haynes, Chris Adams & Leo Burke vs. Michael Hayes, Buddy Jack Roberts & Jake "The Snake" Roberts Speaking of the Freebirds, the men from Badstreet have been ruthless in protecting Terry Gordy's Pacific Heavyweight Title reign, swarming anyone who came near challenging him. With Gordy defending his belt against the fast rising newcomer Bam Bam Bigelow in the main event, the remaining members would be squaring off against a trio of Bigelows's friends, who wisely brought out Adams' good friend The White Angel to watch their backs. The Freebirds broke out their usual arsenal of short cuts mixed with double and triple teams, but were still facing an uphill battle against Haynes' power, Adams' jarring kicks and throws, and Burke's deep technical skills. But the match took an incredibly strange turn deep into it when White Angel was ambushed at ringside by four men, who turned out to be Gary Hart's stable. Hito and Fuchi held him while Nagasaki whalloped him with his Kendo stick, but he took the most damage from the Great Kabuki, who blasted him with vicious shots from his nunchaku, bloodying Angel's head and badly bruising his ribs. Burke, who was in the ring at the time with Jake Roberts, was the first to spot what was going on, which was an unfortunate distraction for him. Jake Roberts, seizing the opportunity, grabbed him and nailed the DDT for the win. While the Freebirds cackled at their ill gotten win, Billy Jack rushed in to protect the fallen Burke while Adams chased off the Japanese wrestlers before coming back to tend to his friend. The White Angel was in very bad shape and it wasn't looking good for his shot at Terry Taylor's TV Title later tonight. Falls Count Anywhere Match : Tracy Smothers vs. Ron Starr Coming out of the shadows of their partners' battles for the Light Heavyweight Title, Smothers and Starr have carved their own legacy with a series of spectacular brawls that have kept the fans attention riveted. The two men have exchanged wins in their feud but it all came down tonight in a match that would go all around the arena. The seasoned veteran "Rotten" Ron Starr showed why he is one of them most feared men in wrestling, busting open the proud southerner early on and throwing him hard into every piece of ringside furniture he could find. But Smothers refused to go down and fired back with everything he had. The crowd cheered with every punch he landed on Starr, and he landed a lot of punches. The two were battling it out at ringside when Starr tried to take Smothers out with a lariat, only for Smothers to duck and flip Starr over the ringside barricade, sending him hard onto the concrete. Then, heroically drawing on his last reserves of energy, Smothers climbed up to the top rope and went sailing into the audience area, hitting Starr with the Jawjacker in one of the most spectacular moves ever seen in PCW. It was a move that seemed to take almost as much out of Smothers as it did Starr, but Tracy was able to drag himself over and put his arm on Starr to get the three count. It quite a toll on him, but The Wild Eyed Southern Boy has truly arrived. Ultimate Showdown : Ricky Steamboat vs. Don Muraco The Magnificent one made his debut with a brutal attack on the Dragon, and these two have waged a brutal war ever since. The Hawaiian superstars have swapped wins throughout their feud, with neither man holding the advantage for long, but word has come that this would be their final battle, with the ultimate bragging rights on the line. Steamboat came out all fire and fury, lacing into Muraco with blistering chops and kicks. But Muraco bided his time and came back hard, with a massive clothesline followed up by some crushing slams. The two gladiators had an epic battle, with first one man holding the advantage then the other. Muraco was finally able to wear down Steamboat and was holding him up to level him with a big clothesline , but Steamboat ducked under it and countered with a go behind, pinning both Muraco's arms behind his back. Steamboat then gave a tremendous show of strength by lifting up the huge Muraco in a Tiger Suplex. One … two … THREE!!!! The Dragon was triumphant in this classic contest. California Title Match : Tom Zenk © vs. "Cowboy" Bob Orton In the first title match of the night, young Tom Zenk would be defending his California Title against the Ace of the Crazy Gang. Since winning the title in a tournament, Zenk has taken on all comers and has prevailed in a sterling title reign. But he was coming in after taking a lot of damage from a defence against "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka, and was clearly not at 100%. Regardless, he was determined to compete and gave it his best. He went at Orton with a lot of fast moves, and for a while, looked like he just might pull it off. But the Cowboy was patient and waited for his chance, which came when he caught Zenk going for a running cross body press and countered it with a big backbreaker. After that, Orton seemed to take sadistic glee in working over the champ, breaking down the already damaged wrestler with jarring moves. Zenk was able to catch his second win and started to come back, looking for a moment like he would prevail when he went up top for his Missile Dropkick. But Orton was only playing possum, and ducked out of the way with ease while Zenk landed hard on the mat. Orton hit Zenk hard in the head with an elbow drop before picking him up, hoisting him on the top turnbuckle and then mercilessly executing the Superples. The three count was academic and, sadly, the title reign of Zenk was now done as Orton put the California Title Belt around his own waist. No Countout, No DQ Pacific Television Title Match : Terry Taylor © vs. The White Angel Terry Taylor came out with his usual insufferable smugness evident, and in the case, one could hardly blame him. PCW Commissioner Dutch Savage came out and delivered the news that, due to the damage done by the early attack from Gary Hart's stable, The White Angel was in no condition to compete and would not be able to make his title match. Figuring his work was done, Taylor got set to leave, only to be stopped by Savage. The Commish then announce that they had found a wrestler who was not booked in a match tonight to take Angel's place and compete for the TV title. Taylor gave his trademark diffident shrug, clearly not afraid of anyone who couldn't get a booking on the card. His confidence turned to raw panic when "La Grange" by ZZ Top played over the arena PA, heralding the arrival of …. TEXAS RED! The popular Texan had not been seen since losing his challenge to Terry Gordy, and the crowd roared their approval as he made his way to the ring. Taylor clearly wanted no part of him, and attempted to ambush him with the Fivearm the moment he stepped into the ring, but Red cut him off with a big boot to the chest that knocked him to the mat. Red then grabbed him by the throat, hefted him high over head, and then drove him back down again with a crushing Chokeslam. The crowd shouted along with the three count then exploded in cheers as Texas Red became the new Television champion. The fans roared their approval as they now had a Television champ they could all get behind. Pacific Light Heavyweight Title Match : Keiichi Yamada © vs. "Leaping" Lanny Poffo Ever since his arrival in PCW as one half of Flamboyance, Lanny Poffo has been hotly tipped to challenge for Keiichi Yamada's Light Heavyweight title. In both tag team and singles matches, the son of the legendary Angelo Poffo has scored several standout wins and tonight he would get his big shot. His showboating somersaults and backflips might have confused his opponent, but it masked a clever and talented contender who provided a considerable challenge to the popular Japanese champion. The result was a breathtaking, fast paced match, with a lot of give and take between the two wrestlers, plentiful mat wrestling and lots of exciting high flying. Poffo tried to put an end to things with a waistlock for a German Suplex, only for Yamada to dig in and block it, then counter with his own waistlock. However, Poffo swiftly fired back with a backwards low kick that doubled over the champion. A month or so before, Poffo had observed his partner Ron Starr get caught in this very same counter, and Lanny had clearly worked out a follow up to it to use just in case he ended up in the same circumstances. Poffo took down Yamada with a dropkick, then went up top and hit the Skydrop. The ref gave the three count and just like that, Poffo was the new champion. The crowd were somewhat disappointed in the result but at the same time, impressed with what Poffo had pulled off, and the new champion was jubilant, backflipping across the ring before grabbing the title belt. Three Way Pacific Tag Team Title Match : Buddy Rose & Doug Somers © vs. Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose vs. Bill Dundee & Larry Cameron Even though they were waging a war on two fronts, facing challenges from both the Thundercats and their former proteges in the Vice Squad, The Playboy Club has kept an iron grip on their Pacific Tag Titles. Tonight they would face their stiffest challenge yet, going against both teams at the same time. This match would be under elimination rules, with the last team standing getting the titles. The result was predictably chaotic, with the Playboy Club and Vice Squad especially venomous in their exchanges. If the Thundercats were hoping to sneak past unnoticed, both sets of their opponents went after them nearly as hard as they did each other, but the wily veteran Dundee and the tough and powerful Cameron kept persevering and fighting for their chance to win the belts. The match started to break down with all three teams in the ring when the Playboy Club and the Vice Squad set their differences aside to gang up on the Thundercats. This turned out to be a ruse by Buddy Rose, as he caught the unsuspecting Del Ray in a roll up , assisted by a huge fistful of trunks, that got a three count. The Playboy Club found this double cross hilarious, with Buddy Rose mocking the eliminated team by blowing kisses and waving goodbye as they were escorted back to the locker room. A catastrophic choice on the part of the Playboy, as "Lethal" Larry Cameron has recovered enough to blast him with a massive Harlem Hammer (running double axehandle to the back of the head and neck) that sent him flying out of the ring. Cameron then leveled Somers with a big clothesline and, in an impressive display of strength, hefted up Dundee in a military press and dropped him hard onto Somers. A count of three later and the Thundercats had pulled it off, winning the Pacific Tag Title to the clear approval of the cheering fans. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Terry Gordy © vs. Bam Bam Bigelow This would be the main event that everyone was waiting for, with the dominant Freebird champion defending against one of the most impressive rookies in all of wrestling. Bigelow came to the ring alone, as his mentor Leo Burke was still feeling the effects of the earlier Jake Roberts DDT, while Gordy came out with all of his Freebird brethren . This didn't do the champ much good, as Dutch Savage immediately made an announcement that the rest of the Freebirds were barred from ringside under penalty of suspension. While the other Freebirds protested before being escorted away, Gordy didn't seem overly fazed, confident that he could handle this challenge on his own. He was soon caught off guard when Bigelow charged right after him and took him down with some big suplexes. The New Jersey fireball briefly celebrated with a quick cartwheel that got a pop from the fans, but was soon back to business and tore into Gordy. He may have been missing the presence of Leo Burke, but Bigelow had clearly learned well from his lessons, at times looking like he was going for the Slingshot Splash or the Nuclear Splash, only to stop himself when he realized that Gordy was luring him into a trap. Regardless, the champion was not kept down for long, and soon began laying into the Beast From The East with his own big moves. At one point, it looked like Gordy would be able to put him out with the Asiatic Spike, but Bigelow fought like a wildcat and was able to prevent the hold being administered. The two behemoths battled back and forth, looking at some points like they might just break the ring. Then Bigelow whipped Gordy hard into the corner and charged in for an avalanche, only for Gordy to duck out of the way at the last second and send Bigelow crashing chest first into the turnbuckle. Gordy then took him down hard with a mighty lariat, then went up to the second turnbuckle and dropped a crushing kneedrop onto Bigelow's sternum. The ref made the count and it was all over. Gordy had faced the biggest challenge to his title yet and prevailed in this Battle Of The Bam(m) Bam(m)s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaldoni Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 I couldn't wait for Seattle Showdown and man did it deliver! First I want to tell you how impressive your match write ups are. I like how you throw in the history along with the match description. Very well done. Gilbert and Beefcake have become a pretty solid team and it's proven tonight with a good win over the Royal Family. Wow! Thanks to Gary Hart's stable beating up Angel on the outside, the Freebirds get a huge win. I'm sure Angel's buddies Adams, Billy Jack and Burke will avenge him. As for the Freebirds, I think Hyatt's boys want a shot at them. Smothers and Starr has been one of my favorite feuds and their blow off was insane. Good Grief that finish by Smothers was literally jaw dropping. Smothers is going places. The epic final showdown between Steamboat and Muraco was a classic. Steamboat finally finishes his business with Muraco. Muraco still comes out strong from this feud. Looking forward to seeing what's next for these two. Zenk had a tremendous run as CA. Champ but all good things must end. Orton prevails and takes home the title. I like Orton in this role. Poor Angel is taken out of his TV title shot. The fans get a great moment as Texas Red subs and puts Taylor down quick! Texas Red's stock just sky rocketed. Leaping Lanny wins the LHW Title! Even as a heel he still impresses the fans with his high flying offense. You have done a great job elevating Poffo into something special. Oh man didnt see that coming as Cameron and Dundee end up with the tag titles! I'm sure Rose and Sommers will want a rematch asap. The Vice Squad are also still in the mix. The tag division is very competitive right now. The main event between the 2 Bam Bams was a hard hitting one. Bigelow really took it to Gordy but the champ's experience comes into play and he gets the decisive win. I'm still wondering who can take Gordy down??? Awesome card! Lot's of title changes as Pacific starts a new chapter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted June 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver, on ESPN / TSN , June 5th Mike Rotunda & Dan Spivey vs. The Royal Family For all that they started strong, the young men of the Brigade have fallen on hard times of late. While Al Perez has managed to pull out some impressive wins, Tom Zenk's loss of the California Title and Rotunda and Spivey coming out at the short end of several tag matches has been representative of their fortunes reaching an all time low. Rotunda and Spivey were hoping to turn things around in the match against the Royal Family, themselves coming off a loss at Seattle Showdown. But the rough and rowdy men from the Pacific Commonwealth were clearly determined not to be anyone's stepping stone, and went at it hard against the Brigadiers. They focused much of their attention on Dan Spivey, battering the former Georgia Bulldog hard and keeping him trapped in their corner in their corner. Every time it looked like he might be able to tag in his partner, the Royal Family found some way to distract the ref and cause the tag to be disallowed. Rotunda finally had enough, and charged in to rescue his partner. When the ref tried to intercede, he found himself shoved aside by both teams. The match ultimately broke down into complete chaos, and the referee had no choice but to throw out the match as a No Contest. What followed was a swift announcement by Commissioner Dutch Savage that he was putting together a match for the next night's show in Victoria, which would not only be a No Countout, No DQ match, but also under Losing Team Leaves Town stipulations. Eddie Gilbert & Brutus Beefcake vs. Michael Hayes & Jake Roberts Of late, Missy Hyatt has found herself the target of some extremely unwanted advances from the Freebirds, in particular Michael PS Hayes. As one could imagine, this hasn't worn at all well with either her or her charges in Hyatt International. As a result, Gilbert and Beefcake took to the ring tonight to defend their beautiful manager's honour from Hayes and his running buddy, Jake "The Snake" Roberts. From the very beginning, Hayes and Roberts let loose with a never ending stream of salty comments and vulgar hip thrusts in Missy's direction, enraging both her and her men. Tempers were running hot throughout this match, but Hayes decided to pour gasoline onto this fire by going over to the ringside area and try to kiss her. The result was both a slap in the face from Missy and Eddie Gilbert jumping off the ring apron and slugging it out with Hayes. This, however, was enough of a distraction for Roberts to sneak in a nasty low blow on Beefcake, followed swiftly by a DDT that got the pinfall. Hayes and Roberts ran off, laughing like hyenas, clearly satisfied with what they had pulled off, but Hyatt International will not likely either forgive or forget what transpired. Tom Zenk vs. Doug Somers Both men were coming off tough title losses at Seattle Showdown, Zenk for the California Title and Somers for the Pacific Tag Team Titles. Somers came out with his Playboy Club cohorts, Buddy Rose and Ed Wiskowski, and clearly had a chip on his shoulder and was looking to take out his frustrations on the handsome young man from Minnesota. Zenk , on the other hand, was decidedly downcast. The loss of the California Title to "Cowboy" Bob Orton has hit him quite hard, and it looked like a fair amount of the wind had gone out of his sails. He seemed about half a step off for the early stages of the match, which led to some loud mockery from the various members of the Playboy Club. Little by little, though, the fire started to come back to Zenk, who slowly regained his determination to not be kept down by the self-proclaimed "Pretty Boy" or his cohorts. Somers started pulling out more dirty tricks, but this only seemed to bring more spark to Zenk, who began firing back with the rapid fire moves that had gained him so many fans. Ultimately, Somers tried to put him away with the Brainbuster, only for Zenk to block it and reverse it into a single arm roll up that managed to get the one-two-three. The Playboy Club were livid and looked to go after Zenk, but the ref interceded and the fans celebrated along with Zenk. It looks like the Z Man is back and on track. Pacific Television Title Match : Texas Red © vs. Konga The Barbarian Texas Red made the mother of all shocking returns at Seattle Showdown, filling in at the last moment for the injured White Angel to beat Terry Taylor for the Television Title. Since then, the big Texan has wasted no time in defending his belt, determined to prove himself as a fighting champion. First up would be the always dangerous Barbarian, one half of the Untouchables. A tough draw for Texas Red to have as his first challenger, but Red was clearly dead set on proving himself and showing that his championship win was no fluke. The Barbarian blasted him with big shots and clotheslines, and rocked the ring with his trademark power moves, but Texas was not kept down for long, and battled back with his own bone jarring moves. Barbarian tried to take him out by whipping him into the ropes for the Front Kick Of Fear, but Texas caught himself on the ropes and then came roaring back with a mighty Western Lariat that levelled Konga. The ref counted the pinfall and Texas Red prevailed in what looks like could be many title defenses for the man from the Lone Star State. The Thundercats vs. The Great Kabuki , Kendo Nagasaki, Mr. Hito & Masanobu Fuchi All four members of the Thundercats would be involved in this match , and all four men were proudly sporting gold belts, Bill Dundee and Larry Cameron with the Pacific Tag Team Titles, and Too Cold Scorpio and Norman Smiley with the Golden Stag Tag Team Titles. The fans warmly embraced the champions, who gladly shook hands and posed for pictures before the match. Gary Hart's contingent of Japanese veterans looked distinctly less enthused, and immediately went right at it with the Thundercats. The result was an exciting and fast paced match, with the rapid fire combination moves of Scorpio and Smiley mixed with the cunning of Dundee and the power of Cameron clashing with the Strong Style intensity of Hart's stable. But things took a turn for the strange when the Japanese wrestlers started to gang up on Cameron, prompting Scorpio and Smiley to enter the fray. Out of nowhere, three men charged in and yanked Dundee off the ring apron, swarming him. It was the Vice Squad , who gave a vicious beating before administering a brutal double spike Piledriver on the concrete floor. Cameron and Smiley ran out of the ring to chase them off and tend to their fallen comrade, but this left Scorpio open to a thrust kick from Kabuki, giving the win to Gary Hart's stable. The Thundercats had other things on their mind though, as Dundee was very badly hurt. This puts future title defenses for the new champions very much in jeopardy.

rainmakerrtv Posted June 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Victoria Memorial Arena, Victoria, on Pacific Super Cards, June 6th No DQ, No Countout, Losing Team Leaves Town Match : Mike Rotunda & Dan Spivey vs. The Royal Family The Royal Family continued their tactics from the previous night, attacking and working over Spivey while keeping Rotunda out of the ring. No matter how hard the young men of the Brigade tried, they could not make the tag. Eventually, something in Spivey snapped, and he made a fiery comeback, knocking both of the Royal Family around the ring. He sent Morgan out of the ring with a clothesline, then started destroying Boyd with huge power moves. As Mike Rotunda and Rip Morgan battled at ringside, Spivey locked Jonathan Boyd in a nasty Sleeper hold until Boyd passed out. Even then, Spivey refused to release the hold until Rotunda talked him down. The Brigade won the match and the Royal Family are now out of Pacific Coast Wrestling. Norman Smiley vs. Jimmy Golden Golden won with a piledriver. Flamboyance vs. Hector & Mando Guerrero An exciting and tightly contested bout that went to a 20 minute time limit draw. Chris Adams vs. Kendo Nagasaki Adams got the victory with a Superkick Pacific Tag Team Title Match : Bill Dundee & Larry Cameron © vs. Ragin' & Ravishing Dundee came in wearing a neck collar and was clearly still injured from the previous night's attack by the Vice Squad. Fernandez and Rude ruthlessly went after him, focusing much of their attacks on his damaged neck. Dundee put in a valiant effort, but when Rude executed the Rude Awakening on him, it was all over. Ragin' & Ravishing are the new Pacific Tag Team Champions. Pacific Television Title Rematch : Texas Red © vs. Terry Taylor Texas Red hit the chokeslam to successfully defend his title. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Terry Gordy © vs. "Crusher" Jerry Blackwell A battle of super heavyweights that looked like it just might break the ring. Blackwell went after Gordy hard, with the Freebird champ resorting to cheap tactics when Michael Hayes pulled down the top rope, causing Blackwell to fall to ringside. Gordy won by countout.

Blehschmidt Posted June 6, 2020 Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Gilbert and Beefcake is definitely an unlikely pairing, but with Hyatt guiding them they seem to be working well together. A nice win over to open the big Seattle Showdown. Chaos ensues during the six man tag, and like the snake he is, Jake Roberts take advantage and plows Burke with the DDT to get the win. Hart has put together an impressive stable of Japanese talent. Smothers with the HUGE high spot to bring it home in the FCA match. Seems like Tracey might be poised to be the top babyface here one day in the future. Steamboat/Muraco is just a fantastic pairing, and this one doesn't disappoint. The visual of the Dragon using all of his strength to suplex Muraco for the finish is awesome. Zenk's impressive reign with the title comes to an end at the hands of "Ace." Orton used experience and patience to put the younger man away. Good stuff. White Angel is out, and Texas Red is in! You have done an awesome job with Mr. Calloway, turning him into quite the force without veering into what he could become. On this night he takes Terry Taylor to task, and another new champion is crowned. Speaking of potential top babyfaces, here is another definite possibility. Lanny picks up the huge win against Yamada after learning from his partners previous mistakes. Great continuity. A three way for the tag straps, and Buddy Rose loses even more power in the Pacific. Larry Cameron and Bill Dundee is an interesting combination, but that combination of power and technique could prove hard to overcome. Bigelow vs Gordy.....Wow....what a main event. Two monsters, and two of the best big men in the history of the business. Gordy picks up the win, and rightfully so in '85, but you've got a great champion and yet another future superstar. Rotunda and Spivey is an awesome combination! The chaotic ending leading to the Loser Leaves Town match is a great set-up. The Freebirds creeping on Missy Hyatt is A+ stuff that I could totally see happening. This will be a fun feud to follow, cause if they push Eddie Gilbert the wrong way, we all know that man get real nasty! Texas Red/Barbarian.....Damn, that's a freaking hoss fight! Gary Hart's stable is a very cool combination of talent. They can certainly be a force here, and will definitely be a pain in the side of the other stables. Spivey and Rotunda pick up the win in the LLT match, and you have to think that puts them closer to a shot at the tag titles. Adams/Kendo is a match I would definitely like to see. Oh Damn!! Rude and Manny take advantage of the injuries to Dundee and come away with the tag titles!! Raging and Ravishing is gonna be a lot of fun on top! Gordy and Blackwell..... Man, Gordy is running through the big men around here! Love Gordy on top. Always felt like he could have gone a whole lot further in the business than he did, so enjoy seeing him on top here a ton! Lots of good stuff going on in PCW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wahoos Leg Posted June 6, 2020 Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 SEATTLE SHOWDOWN Smothers and Starr seems like one of those sneaky good matches that would end up beloved on a modern day goodhelmet best of for this territory Texas Red flattening Taylor was reminsicent of Warrior and Honkytonk Man from the first Summerslam I think the overall booking of this show was so smart, specifically how each of the secondary titles changed hands, helping build the drama for the main event also adding a surprise element to Gordy being able to beat Bam Bam and retain Big fan of the Thundercats, in general. Can see a group like that really getting over in this time period, and in this region. I've got a feeling Missy is going to turn on Hot Stuff, eventiually. Good stuff overall!

spaldoni Posted June 6, 2020 Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Beefcake has been built up so well here and him aligning with Gilbert and Hyatt has proven to be a big success. They're heading into new territory with the Freebirds and Jake. Hayes and Jake are masters of the mind games and this could be the downfall of Hyatt Int if they're not careful. Zenk rebounds from his title loss with a nice win over Sommers. I think Texas Red is going to have a long run as TV champ. The fighting champion suits him well. Gary Hart's men get a huge win thanks to the Vice Squad. Dundee is in serious trouble. Royal Family had a solid run in Pacific but Rotunda and Spivey send them packing. Spivey showed a lot more aggression in this match. I'm going to keep an eye in that. Golden sneaks in a big win over a Golden State tag champ. Flamboyance and the Guerreros have a show stealing match. These teams could put on some nice workhorse matches across the loop. Rude and Manny were one of my favorite teams so I'm happy to see them get some gold. I do feel sorry for Dundee and Cameron. I'm sure they're not going to forget that the Vice Squad are responsible for this. Once again, Red puts Taylor down, proving his title win wasn't a fluke. I knew it was only a matter of time before Gordy and Blackwell collided. Due to that controversially ending I think we'll get a rematch. Like the direction Pacific is heading.

rainmakerrtv Posted June 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2020 Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Kelowna Memorial Arena, Kelowna, June 7th Al Perez vs. Buddy Jack Roberts A hard fought match where Perez prevailed by pulling out the German Suplex Badd Company vs. The Untouchables Badd Company looked on a number of occasions like they might just get the win over their much bigger opponents , but in the end it was a lightning quick Front Kick Of Fear by the Barbarian the got the victory for the Untouchables Billy Jack Haynes vs. Jimmy Snuka An incredibly violent match between the two, where Snuka really tore into Haynes, and Billy Jack fought back for all he was worth. Snuka caught Haynes in a sunset flip out of the corner, only for Billy Jack to block it and just barely keep the Superfly's shoulders down for the one two three. Even after the match, Snuka still wanted to go after Haynes. Chavo Guerrero vs. The Great Kabuki Kabuki won with the thrust kick to the jaw Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Don Muraco A battle of the big men that ended in a double countout with both wrestlers brawling outside the ring Golden State Tag Team Title Match : Norman Smiley & Too Cold Scorpio © vs. Mr. Hito & Masanobu Fuchi A very tensely contested rematch with Scorpio getting the win over Fuchi with the Scorpio Splash California Title Match : Bob Orton © vs. Tracey Smothers "The Wild Eyed Southern Boy" went all out against the Cowboy, catching Orton off guard with his relentless attack. The result was an epic battle where the Ace ultimately prevailed by pinning Smothers after a lariat. Orton grudgingly shook Smothers' hand after the match in a show of respect.

spaldoni Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Fun house show in Kelowna. I think Perez moves up a level with that win over Buddy Jack. If Barbarian hits you with that boot it's over! I'm all for a Haynes/Snuka feud! This could bring in a lot of money for Pacific. Thumbs up if Muraco and Bam Bam are heading into a program. I like that Smothers got a shot at the CA. Title. I think he deserved it after that feud with Starr. Surprisingly, Orton even puts him over with a handshake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted June 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Portland Sports Arena, Portland , on ESPN / TSN, June 12th Brian Knobbs & Jeff Gaylord vs. Matt Quinlan & Bill Posley When we last saw Brian Knobbs, he and his partner Jack Victory were sent out of PCW due to a brutal beatdown at the hands of the Playboy Club. Since then, he has spent his time wandering around the Indy circuits while his place in the Vice Squad was taken by Jimmy Golden and Randy Rose. He returns to PCW with no spot waiting for him but with a new partner, big Jeff Gaylord. Gaylord, a muscular former Missouri Tiger, impressed many as he tossed Quinlan and Posley around the ring, and he and Knobbs worked smoothly together in the ring like a natural fit. But Knobbs was clearly looking to work out a lot of frustration as he pummeled his rookie opponents, ultimately taking Posley down hard with a running powerslam followed by a running splash by Gaylord to finish him off. A dominant win, but only time will tell if he and his new partner can carve out a space on their own in Pacific Coast Wrestling. Eddie Gilbert vs. Michael Hayes The hot blooded Gilbert and the passionate Missy are clearly a volatile combination, and the Freebirds have gleefully provided the lit match. While Hyatt International have had the fans solidly behind them, Michael Hayes has managed to goad the tempestuous duo into making some critical errors in their newly sparked feud. Gilbert brought along Brutus Beefcake for additional backup, while Michaels was joined by his running buddy Jake "The Snake" Roberts. Gilbert came out guns a-blazing, opening up with lefts and rights on the rapidly backpedaling Hayes, so much so that the ref repeatedly threatened him with disqualification. Hayes took advantage of this, goading Gilbert into making several mistakes in the match. He eventually went for his go to move by having Roberts go over to start harassing Missy, causing Beefcake to interpose himself between the two. Gilbert started to jaw with Roberts, and that was when Hayes struck, catching him from behind with a rollup. But Gilbert was waiting with a trap of his own, reversing the rollup assisted by a fistful of tights and getting the one two three. Hayes and Roberts were outraged, but Missy and her boys were jubilant , having put one over on the Freebirds. Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Don Muraco Both of these men were coming out looking like they had something to prove, with Bigelow coming off challenging Terry Gordy for the Pacific Heavyweight Title and Muraco was just done with his feud with Ricky Steamboat. These two big men rock and rolled all over the ring, with one then the other briefly holding the advantage in the match. Eventually the action spilled out of the ring with both of them slugging it out until the ref counted them both out. Even that wasn't the end, as the two kept going at it until separated by the PCW officials. Clearly, these two aren't done with each other by a long way. California Title Match : Bob Orton © vs. Keiichi Yamada Both of these men had title matches at Seattle Showdown, with Orton winning the California Title from Tom Zenk while Yamada lost his Light Heavyweight Title to Lanny Poffo. While the big Cowboy towered over the young Japanese star, Yamada was clearly determined not to be intimidated, and had his good friend Tracy Smothers in his corner cheering him on. Yamada used cat and mouse tactics to keep out of Ortons clutches, and got several near falls that got the crowd up and cheering. But the Kansas City veteran bided his time, and eventually caught Yamada coming off the ropes with a cross body press and countered it with a crushing backbreaker to put an end to his challenge. He looked like he was going to try to get a few more shots on Yamada after the match, but Smothers intervened and bumped chests with Orton until the situation was calmed down. It looks like the Wild Eyed Southern Boy might be making his own run at the champ. Mike Rotunda, Dan Spivey & Tom Zenk vs. The Playboy Club Speaking of Tom Zenk, last week, the former California champ started his comeback by beating Doug Somers. This time out, Somers brought along his cronies in the Playboy Club to try to get some revenge. That said, the Club were somewhat reluctant to face off with Zenk, instead tagging in and out until Dan Spivey entered the match. Strange that they would instead go for the big Georgia Bulldog, but a few nasty cheap shots and blindsides led to the Playboy Club working over Spivey. They kept him trapped in their own corner of the ring, deftly foiling every attempt he made to tag out. Being caught in the corner and pummeled by Rose and held down by Somers and Wiskowski eventually pushed Spivey over the edge, and the popular Brigadier snapped. He whipped Rose hard into the other corner and started brutally stomping him down, backhanding Wiskowski and Somers when they tried to intervene. The ref tried to break it up, but Spivey knocked him to the mat, leading to a disqualification. It fell to his shocked partners to try to calm him down, while Rose was heard to scream, "That guy is a Psycho!" , as he and the rest of the Playboy Club fled the ring in terror.

rainmakerrtv Posted June 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Portland Memorial Coliseum , Portland , on Pacific Super Cards, June 13th Badd Company vs. Mr. Hito & Masanobu Fuchi A very tensely fought matchup that Badd Company won when Tanaka knocked Fuchi out with a cartwheel kick Brutus Beefcake vs. Jake Roberts Roberts thought he had Beefcake set up for the DDT, but Brutus was playing possum and countered with a backdrop and a bridge that got the one two three. After the match, Roberts and Michael Hayes attacked Beefcake, but Eddie Gilbert charged in and ran them off. Mike Rotunda & Dan Spivey vs. Buddy Rose & Doug Somers Once again, the Playboy Club tormented Dan Spivey until he snapped, savagely pummeling Somers and then pinning him after a crushing side suplex. After the match, Spivey kept stomping down Somers until his partner pulled him off. It was all Rotunda could do to get Spivey calmed down. Leaving the ring, Rotunda was very concerned for his partner. Chris Adams vs. The Great Kabuki Adams ducked under an attempt at a thrust kick and caught Kabuki in a single arm rollup to get the pinfall. Post match, Kendo Nagasaki and Kabuki double teamed Adams until someone leapt into the ring and dropkicked them out. It was the White Angel, returning to save his friend! The crowd cheered as the two embraced in the ring. Eddie Gilbert vs. Michael Hayes Hayes won by DQ when Gilbert threw a huge fireball that hit him straight in the chest, sending Hayes fleeing from the ring. Billy Jack Haynes vs. Jimmy Snuka The match was a no contest when Snuka ambushed Haynes before the match even started and clobbered him in the head with the ring bell. Snuka then battered Haynes and dragged him to the outside before crushing him with a Superfly Splash to the floor. Haynes was taken out on a stretcher while Snuka hooted in the ring. Golden State Tag Title Match : The Thundercats © vs. Brian Knobbs & Jeff Gaylord The newly returned Knobbs and his partner Gaylord put up a surprisingly tough challenge for the champs, but Scorpio pulled out the win by hitting a top rope sunset flip on Knobbs. Even that didn't stop things, as the two teams kept battling after the bell until the PCW officials intervened. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Terry Gordy © vs. Leo Burke First it was Bam Bam Bigelow challenged Gordy for the title, now it is his mentor , Leo Burke's turn to go after the belt. Gordy initially seemed to be taking Burke lightly, but the Canadian legend is a double tough competitor and went after Gordy hard. The momentum of the match swung back and forth, and it looked like Burke just might pull it off when he caught Gordy in the Sleeper hold, but that's when Gordy's allies , Michael Hayes (sporting a large bandage across his hairy chest from the earlier fireball) and Jake Roberts, struck, attacking Burke and leading to a DQ win for Burke. The resulting beatdown was stopped by the arrival of Chris Adams and the White Angel, leading to the Freebirds beating a hasty retreat. Gordy retained the title.

spaldoni Posted June 13, 2020 Report Share Posted June 13, 2020 Knobbs is back with a new found focus and partner in Gaylord. Looking forward to watching their build. Gilbert gets one over on Hayes! Looks like Muraco and Bam Bam are heading into a full on feud. This is going to be good! Orton retains but looks like Smothers is next in line. Spivey is going nuts. A crazy Spivey could be very dangerous. On to the coliseum, Badd Co. open the show with a nice win. I hope they get into the title picture. Spivey is really on the brink. Tick, tick, tick Watch out Kabuki and Kendo because Adams and the White Angel are back together! Hayes was lucky to get out of there alive. Gilbert is the master of the fireball. I'm really liking heel Snuka. He sends Billy Jack out on a stretcher. That will get him massive heat in Portland! Thundercats retain but Knobbs and Gaylord prove they're for real. Burke almost takes the title from Gordy. Great match! I'm sure a rematch is coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
