rainmakerrtv Posted March 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the LA Sports Arena, Los Angeles, on ESPN / TSN Pacific Super Cards, March 27th The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) vs. Iron & Steel (Tony Atlas & Larry Cameron) Atlas caught Scorpio coming off the ropes with a powerslam for the win Owen Hart vs. Mr. Hito Owen rolled up Hito with a Victory Roll out of the corner to score the three count Shane Douglas vs. Dan Severn Douglas won by DQ when he was attacked by the Suicide Blondes. Severn was clearly furious with the Blondes as they left the ring together. Vic Steamboat & Badd Company vs. Brian Adams & the Hart Foundation Once again, Steamboat was so focused on going after Adams that he was blindsided by a running tackle by Neidhart. Hart and Neidhart then hit the Hart Attack for the victory. The Brigade (Mike Rotunda, Barry Windham, Ron Simmons, Scott Hall, Tom Magee & Brickhouse Brown) vs. ?? ?? The Brigade were the first ones out, looking eager but cautious for what would lay in store. Then came Percy Pringle, "Mean" Mike Miller and Joel Deaton, looking well pleased with themselves for their grand scheme. Pringle then got on the mic and announced their first partner, from Kansas City , Missouri … "Cowboy" Bob Orton! Perhaps not a huge surprise, given his recent interaction with Mike Miller. But wasn't expected was a tenacious and determined look in his eye. Lately, Orton had lost of lot of focus, with several dispirited efforts in his matches. Tonight, that was all gone, and the Ace was ready to go. Then Percy announced the next two members of their team, former Pacific Tag Team Champions … Jimmy Del Ray and Randy Rose, the Vice Squad! This was more of a surprise, as Randy Rose had not been seen in PCW since New Years. If they were back together, this meant that the already intense competition in the PCW tag division was about to get even more frantic. Then Percy Pringle's maniacal grin somehow got even wider. With a sense of unveiling the piece de resistance, he announced the 6th and final member of their team … Stan "The Lariat" Hansen! A gasp went up from the crowd and the Brigade went from looking wary to deeply concerned. The Mad Man from Borger had been getting more violent and unhinged in his past few matches, coming very close to being suspended. If he was now aligning himself with Pringle and Miller's crew, their situation just went from precarious to downright dangerous. Pringle then cackled gleefully that they were the new Crazy Gang and Pacific Coast Wrestling would never be the same again. With that, the match got underway, and it soon became clear that the new Crazy Gang were a force to be reckoned with. Miller and Deaton showed that they had learned every dirty trick in the book, and had written several new pages to boot. Orton was looking like a new man, expertly taking command of the ring with confidence. The Vice Squad showed the tag team fluidity and cunning that had brought them to the top of the PCW tag ranks. And Hansen … well, he was just a monster, brutalizing anyone who got in his path. But the Brigade had worked to hard and come to far to be swept away just like that. Windham and Rotunda Took charge and rallied their team, making the Crazy Gang pay some dues for their earlier brutality. Brickhouse and Magee started to gel as a partnership, hitting some impressive double team moves. Simmons was tough as nails, refusing to back down from the Crazy Gang and administering a considerable amount of punishment on them. And Hall unleashed some devastating power moves, tossing around Rose and Del Ray like they weighed nothing. But when it came to Stan Hansen, it seemed like the Gator had bitten off more than he could chew. Nothing he did put so much of a dent in the ornery Texan, and soon Hansen had staggered him with powerful shoulder tackles, followed by him unloading on him with a whalloping lariat that put the big Floridian down for good. After that, the three count was academic and the new Crazy Gang had scored an impressive win. The Brigade had been flying high before, but now they have acquired some serious rivals. Pacific Television Title Match : Bam Bam Bigelow © vs. Chris Adams The English challenger used his skill and mobility to bedevil the champ, peppering him with kicks and shots that wore Bam Bam down. But he was unable to land the decisive hit with the Superkick and the champ weathered out the storm, catching Adams in the corner with an avalanche then following up with a running splash to score the pinfall in a hard fought defense. Pacific Heavyweight Title Match : Eddie Gilbert © vs. The Great Muta Gilbert won by DQ when Muta sprayed the ref in the face with the Green Mist. He then went crazy on Gilbert, viciously attacking and stomping him until he had to be pulled off by Chris Adams and Brian Adams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet-Left Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 What a reveal! Stan Hansen is such an impressive get for Percy Pringle. The Brigade is going to seriously need to get its act together if they have any hope of avenging this loss or competing with the Crazy Gang.

spaldoni Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 Finlay is defiantly here to fight! Douglas tells his side of the story. I wonder what Morton's problem was? Guess he had to blame someone. Young Jarrett wants to make it on his own and respectfully turns down the Army's offer. One thing about Pacific, you need friends. Pillman and Hart put on a good one. The Hart Foundation are closing in on the Snowbirds titles. Brigade scored big time with Brickhouse but better be worried about Pringle. Can the Guerrero's dethrone the Wild Bulls? Badd Co. takes advantage of all the chaos and scores the win. The tag division is on fire! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaldoni Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 To LA, Oh yea, Atlas and Cameron get a nice win. I wonder how long until Severn completely snaps on the Blondes. Vic's obsession with Adams is costing his team some matches. I think it's time for a one on one. WHOA! Pringle has put together a devastating force! Hansen is defiantly the big catch. Will the Brigade be able to stop these guys? Will anybody? Bigelow retains over Adams. This win gives Bigelow tremendous credibility as champ. Gilbert and Muta is becoming one hot feud. After what just happened, the heat is on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainmakerrtv Posted March 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 It was actually pure chance that I brought Brickhouse in. I had originally picked up Todd Champion, who I remember as being decent if not outstanding. Didn't have big plans for him, just thought he fit the look of a Brigade member and he would balance out Randy Rose being brought in for the Crazy Gang (which was also good news for Jimmy Del Ray, whom I love but went from being lowest guy in the Crazy Gang to a valuable part of a tag team). Also, he was from LA, which would fit in with the LA debut. Coincidentally, soon after that on my YouTube feed I spot a clip of Arn Anderson giving his thoughts on Todd Champion. Besides watching everything I can of Arn, I like to view videos of the lesser known people I bring in to get a better view of their skills and personalities. It turns out, Arn hated him. Thought he was reckless and hurt people as well as thinking he knew it all. Well, Arn's word is good enough for me. Looked at the Free Agents and behold, Brickhouse Brown. So I swapped Champion for Brown and instead of having another muscled up blonde, I had a great athlete with his own personality who would be a full on asset instead of a guy filling a space.

kevinmcfl Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 Love the back story. It would be interesting to see why we picked up certain people on our rosters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted March 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 Pacific Coast Wrestling Show from the UCSB Event Center, Santa Barbara, March 28th Jeff Jarrett vs. Dan Severn Jarrett gave Severn quite the challenge but "The Beast" was able to trap him in the Body Scissors Sleeper and force him to give up. After the match, the clearly impressed Severn helped Jarrett and raised his hand in respect. Dave Taylor vs. Mr. Hito A tight showdown where Taylor was just barely able to hold Hito's shoulders to the mat after a Butterfly Suplex Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) & Leo Burke vs. The Midnight Express & Big Bubba Rogers Much of the match was an exciting tag team duel between Black Gold and the Midnight Express, but it was Big Bubba who spelled the difference, nailing Douglas with the Bubba Slam to give his team the victory. After the match, he looked set to administer more punishment, only to be met with a right cross from Leo Burke. The two men threw down lefts and rights before their teammates pulled them apart. Nick Busick vs. Buddy Rose Ed Wiskowski tried to throw in a set of brass knuckles to Rose, but wound up being met with a clothesline from Jim Duggan. The knucks still fell in the ring, and Rose staggered to get them, but by the time he had retrieved them and turned around, he was met with a crushing Spinebuster Slam that gave the win to the man from Powerhouse Hill. Pacific Light Heavyweight Title Match : Too Cold Scorpio © vs. Brian Pillman Since winning the Light Heavyweight Title, Too Cold Scorpio has had a credible run as champion. But the past few months have seen a fair number of new contenders arrive in PCW, and the competition has gotten even more fierce. Scorpio and the former Cincinnati Bengal had a breathtaking battle that had the fans at the edge of their seats, with plentiful technical wrestling and high flying. It wound up going all the way to a 20 minute time limit draw, but Pillman had certainly established his credibility as a front runner for another title shot. Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Wild Bulls (Ed & Rick Gantner) © vs. The Suicide Blondes (Chris Candido & Todd Morton) It was the Wild Bulls who had initially put Morton on the shelf, and the Blondes were clearly looking for some payback. Give credit where it is due, they did a very good job of bedeviling the champs, using hit and run tactics and keeping them frustrated. In the end , they got reckless, and Candido wound up running straight into a chokeslam from Rick that gave the win to the Bulls. Rick looked like he was going to go after Morton, but Ed had a word in his ear and instead left them to leave the ring. Regardless, the Bullpen were clearly pleased that their favorite team score another victory. California Title Match : Tracy Smothers © vs. Keiichi Yamada Smothers was accompanied for this match by Dan Severn, while Yamada was accompanied by Hiroshi Hase. Late in the match, the ref was knocked down, and Smothers took Yamada down with a savate kick. "Mr. Hollywood" then told Severn to come in the ring to help administer further damage to Yamada, but Severn looked at him like he was out of his mind. Severn started telling Smothers that he already had the advantage and needed to deal with Yamada himself. Smothers started to argue with Severn, but this gave Yamada the chance to recover, and the Japanese superstar dropkicked him from behind out of the ring. Smothers and Severn became so entangled that Smothers was not able to make it back into the ring, and Yamada got the win by countout. Smothers was still the champion, but had suffered an embarrassing loss, and he looked like he was going to start further arguing with Severn, but a steely glare from the Beast cut that off. Nevertheless, it doesn't look like all is well in the Hollywood Knights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinmcfl Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 Very exciting from top to bottom. Only is pro wrestling could a young JJ hold his own against Severn and that's why I love it. Nice match up! Looks like the Midnight Express is on the rise. Also looks like we have to keep an eye on Bubba and Leo Burke. Interesting. Bully Busick over the Playboy.... maybe a changing on the guard? Never count Buddy out. Too Cold vs Pillman would be a fun match to watch as was Smothers and Yamada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted March 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 Pacific Coast Wrestling Show from the Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, March 29th The Snowbirds (Owen Hart, Brian Pillman, Hiroshi Hase & Keiichi Yamada) vs. The Hollywood Knights (Tracy Smothers, Dan Severn , Chris Candido & Todd Morton) Yamada is now clearly in the camp of the Snowbirds, wearing ring gear that thematically matched those of his partners. (In his case, white tights with a red rising Sun of Japan pattern on the seat). After a long , back and forth match, Severn and Owen were having an extended technical showdown, only for Smothers to interfere by hitting the Jawjacker on Owen. Severn took the pinfall that gave the win to the Knights, but was clearly not happy with Smothers for interfering in his match. Scott Hall, Tom Magee & Brickhouse Brown vs. Bob Orton & The Vice Squad (Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose) After their loss a couple of nights ago, the newest members of the Brigade were eager to prove themselves against the new Crazy Gang. But Percy Pringle's men weren't going to make it easy for them. Orton in particular had a new fire in his belly, landing some jarring moves on the Brigade. Del Ray and Rose more than held up their end, with some nasty blindsides and double teams. But the young men of the Brigade rallied and really started to come together as a team. Rose whipped Magee into the corner followed him in for a running forearm smash, only for Hall to pull Magee out of the way at the last second. Megaman and the Gator then whipped Rose into the opposite corner, right into the path of a Missile Dropkick from Brickhouse Brown. Hall and Magee managed to hold off Orton and Del Ray long enough for Brickhouse to get the three count. The Brigade had pulled off the victory, but the Crazy Gang had made them work hard for it. The Thundercats (Too Cold Scorpio & Norman Smiley) vs. Iron & Steel (Tony Atlas & Larry Cameron) The Thundercats were still bearing a grudge against Cameron for abandoning them, and went after him every chance they got. This might have cost him, as Smiley was trying to get at Cameron when Atlas caught him with a Samoan Drop to give the win to Iron & Steel. Dave Taylor vs. David Finlay A down and dirty brawl where the rules went out the window early on and wound up going to a no contest, with both men just tearing into each other. Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Wild Bulls (Ed & Rick Gantner) © vs. Chavo & Hector Guerrero The Guerreros had come close on a number of occasions to taking the titles from the Gantner Brothers, and went all out tonight to bring home the belts. But the Bulls had learned from their previous collisions with Chavo and Hector, and managed to keep ahead of the challengers. No matter what trap Chavo and Hector set for the Gantners, Ed and Rick would tap into their considerable stores of power and raw violence to bust out of them. Chavo tried to get Rick in a German Suplex, but Rick broke out of it and moved out of the way for Ed to nail Chavo with the Bull Hammer (running forearm smash to the face) to get the three count. The Bullpen went crazy as the Wild Bulls had finally shut down the challenge of the Guerreros, proving beyond the shadow of a doubt that they are the real deal. Mike Rotunda, Barry Windham & Ron Simmons vs. "Mean" Mike Miller, Joel Deaton & Stan Hansen Much like their younger colleagues, Rotunda, Windham and Simmons were looking to make the Crazy Gang pay some dues. They gave a very good accounting of themselves against Miller and Deaton, but Hansen was a whole other deal. Once again, the huge Texan came charging in with a lariat, this time on Rotunda, that wound up giving the win to the Crazy Gang. Stan Hansen looks to be a major game changer for this new feud, and one wonders how the Brigade will ever be able to counter him. Eddie Gilbert, Vic Steamboat & Badd Company vs. The Great Muta, Brian Adams & The Hart Foundation In this bloody battle between Missy Hyatt International and Gary Young International, Muta was completely fixated Gilbert, buzzsawing through anyone just to get at the champ. Steamboat and Adams were equally locked in on each other. Late in the match, Adams finally knocked Steamboat out of the ring with a clothesline, but Steamboat caught himself on the top rope and landed on the apron. Adams and Steamboat then started to exchange blows between the ropes, but this allowed Gilbert to sneak in and roll up Adams for the three count. Gilbert didn't have long to celebrate his victory, as Muta blindsided him with a spin kick to the back of the head that dropped the champ to the mat. Gilbert's partners chased after Muta, but Hart's men swiftly scuttled away into the night to escape retaliation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet-Left Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 Keiichi Yamada has shown Tracy Smothers up, hopefully he'll soon manage to capture the belt. No appears to have any answer for Stan Hansen and it's hard to imagine they'll think of one any time soon. His impact on the promotion is cool and believable.

kevinmcfl Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 What a card here! Great use of your roster to hype op multiply angles at one time. For me, the match of the night was Rotuno, Windham & Simmons vs Miller, Deaton and Hansen. You have done a great job making Hansen the star that he should be. Also thought the Taylor-Finlay battle was interesting. This international brawl would have been great to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaldoni Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 Severn is becoming a very intriguing character. He's with a heel faction but respects the rules. Good story going here. An all out fight is looming between Bubba and Burke. Busick scores a big time win over Buddy. Busick has really become a star here. Scorpio and Pillman put on a classic. Maybe we'll get an extended time limit match in the future. The Bullpen had reason to celebrate on this loop as the Wild Bulls get in 2 title defenses. Bull have become a very cohesive unit and that could mean a long reign on top. Yamada gets the co win and no doubt will get a rematch. Smothers better quit riling up Severn. Mega Man and Gator benefited from Brickhouse as they get a satisfying win. You know I'm happy when Iron & Steel get a win. Taylor and Finlay go at it in what looks to be the early stages of a brutal feud. Man, you called it. Hansen is defiantly a game changer! Gilbert takes advantage of Steamboat and Adams hate and gets the quick rollup on Adams. However, Muta once again gets the last blow on Gilbert. Exciting loop as a lot of feuds are really heating up. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainmakerrtv Posted April 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2021 Pacific Wrestling Showcase from the Victoria Memorial Arena, Victoria, on ESPN / TSN, April 2nd Norman Smiley vs. Bobby Eaton Both of these men are more familiar with tag team competition but would be squaring off in singles action tonight. Eaton and his manager, Jim Cornette, kept a fairly dismissive air in the match with young Smiley. But Smiley has steadily built a reputation as a canny technical wrestler in the Thundercats time in PCW, and managed to flummox Eaton on several exchanges. Eaton, a top flight grappler himself, battled back and looked about to put him away with a swinging neckbreaker, but Smiley blocked it and countered with a backslide. One … two … THREE!!! Smiley had pulled off a major upset in defeating one half of the Midnight Express! Cornette and Eaton were livid, but Smiley didn't care as he leapt out of the ring and celebrated with the fans. Dave Taylor vs. David Finlay It didn't take long for the flames of hatred that Finlay has for the British wrestlers in PCW to fan into a bonfire. Last week, he put a serious hurting on Robbie Brookside, and his mentor, Dave Taylor was out for revenge. Brookside's partner, Steven Regal, was also at ringside, and it was all he could do to keep from going after Finlay himself. As Taylor and Finlay blistered each other with vicious shots throughout the match, Regal was clearly getting madder and madder. When Finlay kept choking Taylor in the corner, Regal could stand no more are charged into the ring to pull Finlay off Taylor. This led the ref to give the match to Finlay by DQ. Regal exchanged blows with Finlay until Taylor dragged him away. Regal wanted to keep going at it, but Taylor does not want his young charge mixing it up with the Belfast Bruiser. Brickhouse Brown & Tom Magee vs. Mike Miller & Bob Orton After last week's series of intense matches between the Brigade and the Crazy Gang, the rest of the Brigade (Mike Rotunda, Barry Windham, Ron Simmons & Scott Hall) came out to show support for their newest members, as well as ensure that no funny business took place. Seeing this, Percy Pringle, the manager of the Crazy Gang, smugly got on the ringside mic and declared that, as a manager, he had a license to be at ringside, but the Brigade members had no such thing, and since there were no other members of the Crazy Gang present for this match, the Brigade could just head to the back and watch the match on the monitors. The Brigade protested, but as everything Pringle was saying was true, the ref ordered them back to the locker room. Even though they were out on their own, Brickhouse and Magee gave a game effort, but despite their considerable athletic skills, Miller and Orton had too much of an edge both with experience and viciousness. It was a nasty low blow from "Mean" Mike Miller that left Magee open to an over the shoulder neckbreaker that spelled victory for Miller and Orton. The Brigade had been on a roll before, but now will have to up their game to cope with this newer, more dangerous assemblage of the Crazy Gang. Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Wild Bulls (Ed & Rick Gantner) © vs. The Dog Pound(Brian Knobbs & Rick Steiner) Hoo boy. It's hard to tell which was more chaotic, the action in the ring or what was going in in the audience. The Bullpen and the Wild Dogs, the rowdy fans of the Wild Bulls and the Dog Pound, respectively, were out in full force and in constant arguments with each other, with full on fist fights being narrowly averted by security. Their favored teams seemed to be taking a fair amount of inspiration from their fans and the result was a knock down , drag out fight, with nary a headlock or takedown to be seen. Eventually, the ref gave up on any semblance of control and declared a no contest, which only got the fans even more riled up, and it took a double sized complement of security to get everything back in order. PCW will need to be ready for a riot if these two teams lock up again. Interview : Frank Bonnema stands in the ring Bonnema : Ladies and gentlemen, my next guest is the commissioner of Pacific Coast Wrestling … Dutch Savage! The fans, having calmed down somewhat, warmly cheer the Pacific North West legend as he makes his way to the ring. Bonnema : Dutch, always a pleasure to speak with you. I understand that you have a special announcement for us. Savage : That I do, Frank. The big, special shows that we have every few months have been a high point of Pacific Coast Wrestling, with plenty of amazing matches that have gotten the fans buzzing. Aloha Spectacular, Seattle Showdown, Phoenix Firestorm and San Diego Battleground, all of those shows have been classic wrestling events. Well, I am proud to announce another special show coming up … from Las Vegas, Nevada … Vegas Vengeance! *the crowd cheers* We already have 2 special events planned for Vegas Vengeance. The first, a Pacific Heavyweight Title Match where champion Eddie Gilbert will defend against the Great Muta! This is a match that has been brewing for some time now, and will be the Main Event of this very exciting show. But we have something very special in addition to that. The tag team competition in PCW has never been any hotter than it has now, with many world class teams competing for a shot at the Pacific or Golden State Tag Team Titles. Well, to add something extra to the mix, we will be having a one night, 8 team tournament at Vegas Vengeance. The prize? The winning team will be declared top contenders, and to sweeten the deal, will win a $200, 000 prize! *the crowd gasps* That should lead to some incredibly intense matches. The competing teams are as follows : British Steel … The Midnight Express … the Thundercats … the Hart Foundation … Black Gold … the Vice Squad … Badd Company … and the Dog Pound! (Each team generates cheers or boos, depending on the crowd's feeling on them, although the announcement of the Dog Pound generates such a loud response that security come out to make sure the Wild Dogs don't cause any more trouble) Pacific Coast Wrestling is very proud to put on this – Dutch Savage is cut off as "You Dropped A Bomb On Me" by the Gap Band plays over the arena. Iron & Steel (Tony Atlas & Larry Cameron) make their to the ring and they are clearly furious. Atlas : Now what is all this nonsense? We're back there, and we hear about this big tag team tournament, and I hear the names of a bunch of losers … what I don't hear is the name Iron & Steel. How can you talk about the best teams in PCW and leave out the roughest, toughest, strongest, meanest team there is? Savage : *clearly not about to take any crap from anyone* Listen, most of the teams in the tournament are either former champions or have managers who campaigned hard for their place. You didn't speak up for yourselves so you missed out. *Atlas looks about to explode but Savage shuts him down* Now hold your horses! You might not get a spot in the tournament, but you have a place on the show. In fact, at Vegas Vengeance , Iron & Steel will get a shot at the Pacific Heavyweight Titles, held by the Wild Bulls! (Again, security comes out to keep the Bullpen from getting out of line). Now that opportunity can disappear just as easily as it was given, so you better watch your step between now and then! Cameron : Well, you just barely saved your bacon with that last statement, Dutchboy, but the Wild Bulls better start saying their prayers that they can walk out of the match after we take their titles. Iron & Steel are coming for you! Vic Steamboat vs. Brian Adams These two up and coming Hawaiian stars had an intense bout at Aloha Spectacular, with Steamboat coming out of that the victor. Since then, Adams has been hungry for vengeance, with their single minded focus on each other disrupting a number of tag team matches between Missy Hyatt and Gary Hart's forces. Tonight, the would finally get a singles rematch and they certainly did not hold back. Adams was looking to hurt Steamboat in this match, while Steamboat was equally determined to get payback for a number of attacks by the American Ninja. This one could have gone either way, and from the looks of things, gone all night, with both being fueled by a seemingly bottomless well of hatred for each other. Adams had Steamboat trapped in the corner and was raining down punches, but Steamboat managed to escape and catch Adams in a rollup that just barely kept his shoulders down for the three count. Both men continued to go after each other after the match until their managers got them to leave. Clearly, this feud has a long way to go before it resolves.

spaldoni Posted April 7, 2021 Report Share Posted April 7, 2021 Show kicks of with a bang as Smiley scores a huge upset on Beautiful Bobby. Finlay has gone to war with the British wrestlers. I wonder if Tony St. Clair is watching what's going down in Pacific. I was thinking the same thing. Orton and Miller just have that experience factor going for them. Maybe Windham and Rotunda should take them on. I knew it was only a matter of time before the Bullpen and Wild Dogs started going at it LOL. Next time they meet, I'm sure there will be extra security everywhere. Dutch makes a huge announcement as Vegas Vengeance is coming! The main event alone would guarantee a huge crowd. Adding the tag tournament will defiantly sell the arena out. With the stacked tag division, this tournament is going to rock. YES!!! Iron & Steel get a shot at the Wild Bulls! I cant wait for that match. Vic and Adams get their long awaited one on one and they go at it. Vic gets the quick 3 but as we saw this feud is far from over.

rainmakerrtv Posted April 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver on Pacific Super Cards on ESPN / TSN , April 3rd Steve Blackman vs. Dan Severn As you could imagine, this was an incredibly hard hitting match, with both men laying in mighty punches and kicks and some titanic takedowns that shook the mat. Part way through the match, the Suicide Blondes showed up at ringside, looking to be an equalizer for Severn, but the Beast was quite upset at their appearance and demanded that they return to the locker and let him handle things on his own. After a while, the Blondes reluctantly did so, leaving Severn on his own. While he was shouting at them, Severn turned his back to Blackman, giving Steve the chance to blindside him, but Blackman declined to do so and instead waited for Severn to face him before locking up again. Severn seemed to appreciate this show of sportsmanship, and while he still ended up taking Blackman down with a violent legsweep and trapping him in an excruciating looking leglock, the moment Blackman tapped the mat signaling his surrender, Severn immediately released the hold and even helped him back to his feet. Mike Rotunda & Ron Simmons vs. "Mean" Mike Miller & Joel Deaton In this match between the Brigade and the Crazy Gang, Simmons managed to pull out the victory by hitting the running Spear on Deaton, but Miller and Deaton still managed to get a lot of shots in and do a lot of damage before the match was over. Scott Hall vs. Stan Hansen Hall did everything he could with his incredible power to shut down the big Texan, but Hansen just had too much rage in him and nailed the Lariat to bring the win. Jeff Jarrett vs. Mr. Hito Jarrett has shown steady improvement in his ring skills and increased confidence, and while he was unable to put Hito away, he was still able to take the Japanese veteran to a 20 minute time limit draw Pacific Television Title Match : Bam Bam Bigelow © vs. Chavo Guerrero Guerrero put up a considerable challenge for Bigelow's title, using his speed and cunning to keep the Beast From The East off balance. Bam Bam managed to rally, however, and caught Chavo in the corner with an Avalanche before hitting the Slingshot Splash to successfully defend his title. Pacific Tag Team Title Match : The Wild Bulls (Ed & Rick Gantner) © vs. The Midnight Express Before the match, the ref gave a stern warning to Jim Cornette that if he caught a hint that either Cornette or Big Bubba Rogers interfered in the match, that the ref would respond with massive fines for both of them. Cornette gave a look of "Who, me?", but he and his bodyguard kept their hands to themselves. The Midnights still managed to hold their own, but when the balance started to tip in favor of the champions, Cornette pulled out a whistle and started to shrilly blow it. The reason for this obnoxious behaviour soon became clear, as the Dog Pound charged out to the ring and attacked the Wild Bulls. While both the Bullpen and the Wild Dogs went nuts, the Dog Pound and the Midnights ganged up on the Bulls until Rick grabbed a chair and started swinging it wildly, clearing the ring. While the Midnights lost by DQ, the ref was unable to follow through with the threatened fines as technically neither Cornette nor Big Bubba had directly interfered. Eddie Gilbert, Vic Steamboat & Dave Taylor vs. The Great Muta, Chris Adams & Brian Adams Muta knocked Taylor out of the ring, at which point Taylor was attacked by David Finlay, rendering him unable to get back in the ring, leading to Gary Hart's team winning by countout. The moment the decision was declared, Chris Adams fled the ring, wanting to have nothing to do with the Fighting Irishman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Midnight Express must get focused if they are going to get to the top on the West Coast. Being Irish, I am enjoing the man from Belfast going after those bloody Brits... lol. Regal better be careful. Interesting to see the fans of both teams going after each other with the Wild Bulls and Dog Pound. I like these kind of wrestlers who were down the middle instead of pure babyface or heel. Enjoyed the interview with Dutch. I like how he wasn't going to take any crap from Atlas and Cameron.

rainmakerrtv Posted April 9, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 Pacific Coast Wrestling show from the Kelowna Memorial Arena, Kelowna, April 4th Tom Magee & Brickhouse Brown vs. Mando & Hector Guerrero The Guerreros really put the young Brigade members through their paces, but Magee and Brickhouse managed to rally and took down Mando after hitting him with a double thrust kick. Hiroshi Hase vs. Chris Adams Hase put in a game effort, and managed to catch Adams with a running cross body press, but Adams countered with a rollover and got the pinfall with his feet on the ropes Barry Windham vs. Bob Orton Orton has clearly rediscovered his fire and the result was a very intense fight where he managed to get Windham up for the Superplex, only for Windham to punch his way out then come off the top with a flying lariat for a hard fought win Jim Duggan & Nick Busick vs. Buddy Rose & Ed Wiskowksi A heated brawl where Rose snuck in the ring and clobbered Duggan with a blackjack, allowing Easy Ed to pin Duggan following a running kneedrop Black Gold (Steve Blackman & Shane Douglas) vs. The Vice Squad (Jimmy Del Ray & Randy Rose) In a close match that pitted the enthusiasm of Black Gold against the cunning of the Vice Squad, it came down to Del Ray and Rose showing why they had been so tough to beat when they were Pacific Tag Team champs, as they caught Douglas in a Double Flapjack to get the one two three. Golden State Tag Team Title Match : The Snowbirds (Owen Hart & Brian Pillman) © vs. The Hart Foundation A classic tag match where the Harts came very close on a number of occasions to taking the titles. Neidhart had Owen pinned while holding onto the ropes while the ref escorted Bret out of the ring, but Pillman came in with a slingshot sunset flip and held the Anvil's shoulders to the mat for the three count. California Title Match : Tracy Smothers © vs. Keiichi Yamada "Mr. Hollywood" was clearly desperate to keep away from his former friend, but Yamada was relentless in going after the champion, and Smothers wound up going to desperation tactics by calling in the Suicide Blondes to attack Yamada, leading to a loss by DQ but the title not changing hands. The rest of the Snowbirds came in to run off the Hollywood Knights and rescue their colleague. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet-Left Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 I love the coward routine from Tracy Smothers. Hopefully, Keiichi Yamada will eventually get to face in a fair fight. The Snowbirds versus the Hart Foundation could be a staple, I can't imagine I'd ever get bored of seeing something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinmcfl Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 What I have figured out is that between your alliances and booking such evenly matched opponents, I can never predict what is going to happen in PCW. I think I only gueesed 2 matches right in Kelowna. This makes each match truly exciting as anything could happen. Nice job balancing a roster that has a little bit of everything!

spaldoni Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 I look forward to the Pacific loop every week. Everybody always has something to do and every match means something. I can tell big things are brewing for Dan Severn. Stan Hansen is tearing it up! He might be the next Pacific title contender. Love this feud going between the Wild Bulls and Dog Pound. Not only is it a hard hitting feud but their fans bring so much to this story. Very entertaining. Look at that. The young Brigade members score a huge upset on the Guerreros. Another feud I'm really getting into is Playboy Club-Busick/Duggan. Both sides have traded wins and I know we're going to get an epic blow off. The Flapjack is one of my favorite tag team finishers. Good work Vice Squad. Snowbirds have become a tight unit and defiantly have each others backs. Smothers is really embracing his gimmick and is having a fun CA title run.
