LastStopTour Posted November 28, 2024 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2024 TONIGHT! TONIGHT! TONIGHT! From the Marshall County High School * Benton, Kentucky Home of the Marshals 1. Jason Sterling pinned The Shadow. 2. The Hillbillies defeated The Convicts. 3 Gary U.S. Royal won over The Cuban Assassin II. ** 4. Gypsy Joe and The Cuban Assassin battled to a Double DQ. *** * Decent house show the day before Thanksgiving for the new promotion. The gymnasium packed in some 300 paying customers. ** The red, white and blue wearing Royal kicked it up a notch when his opponent got his hands on Royal's patriotic leather jacket and threatened to destroy it. *** Bloody affair that featured very little wrestling as the two fought all over the gym. The referee finally threw the match out when neither man would get back into the ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LastStopTour Posted November 29, 2024 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2024 Voiceover: You are watching Bluegrass Championship Wrestling on WPSD-TV, Channel 6. Wrestling action to snappy music plays interspersed with images of Kentucky to kick off the program. Bluegrass Championship Wrestling November 30th, 1998 TV Taping - WPSD-TV, Channel 6 Studios Paducah, Kentucky Announcers: Bert Prentice & Ronnie Gossett Referee: Bruno Laurer Host Bert welcomes everyone to Bluegrass Championship Wrestling's Power Half Hour and introduces his co-host Ronnie Gossett. Bert is excited to be here, ready for all the action while Ronnie doesn't seem to want to be there and isn't surprised that Bert is excited. The two back and forth as to why Bert is seated on the left side which is Ronnie's better side and him trying to steal Ronnie's thunder. Bert with a snide comment about Ronnie's size and weight, being hard to hide him from the camera, not matter where he sits. Anyway, back to today's program ... we have Todd Morton in action. Ronnie comments about not being able to swing a cat without hitting a Morton. Bert mentions Todd being related to RIcky Morton and being a pretty good wrestler in his own right. Ronnie will believe that when he sees it. We also have the Cuban Assassins taking on the Hillbillies! Dennis and Don are in for a tough time against the Cubans. Ronnie wonders if the Cuban Assassin can be his lifeline to getting some Cuban cigars. Bert tells Ronnie to stop that. Moving on, Bert says that Tim Renesto will be joining them today. Ronnie excitedly talks about Renesto's father, Tom Renesto, also known as one half of The Assassins. They were a sight to behold in their heyday. Ronnie wonders if Tom is embarrassed how his sons, Tim and Tom Jr. turned out in the business. He knows he would be, that's for sure. Bert tells him to cut that out. Bert dares him to ask Tim Renesto that question but a scoffing Ronnie says he doesn't have to because he already knows the answer. Rolling his eyes, Bert goes to a commercial break. ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- We return to Bert telling Ronnie to behave before throwing it to the ring! Todd Morton versus The Convict #1 Convict heels it up, attacking before the bell and getting the better of Morton in the early going. Morton kicks out of a pin attempt that leads to The Convict threatening the referee for a slow count, also giving Morton time to clear the cobwebs. Morton makes a comeback, taking over the match with the fans solidly behind him. A series of dropkicks softens up the criminal before a flying body press ends the match. The fans cheer for the victorious Morton. Tim Renesto joins our hosts and is welcomed by Bert to the program. Ronnie gushes about Renesto's father Tom who was a hero of his growing up which Bert refutes, saying both men are the same age. Ronnie goes on and on before hoping that Renesto is allowed to continues his father's legacy with the mask as The Assassin, something that his older brother wasn't allowed. Bert tells Renesto to ignore Gossett before adding that Renesto will be in action right here, nest week but right now, we need take a station break! ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- Back from commercial, we are back with the hosts when a barefoot woman in a black robe slinks out from the back. The woman screams as she approaches. Ronnie Gossett jumps out of his chair like he is ready to get into the buffett line and gets behind the seated Bert Prentice. The woman nears, speaking gibberish which gets a weird reaction from Gossett who makes several hand gestures and hisses at her like a cat. She hisses back at him before leaving. Bert tells Gossett to get out from behind him. Ronnie goes on a tirade about the hoodoo from the witchy woman. Bert wants to know how he knows about this? Gossett says there is a lot about him that Prentice doesn't know, like his nationally recognized Wrestling Museum. Bert says he doesn't have a museum. Comedy bit with the two going back forth - yes, he does, no, he doesn't before it is time for our match. The Hillbillies (Dennis & Don Allen) versus The Cuban Assassins The fired up Assassins bring the brawl with the bell, attacking both Hillbillies until the referee can restore order. Back and forth match with the Cubans bringing a little more to the table and when things start to go against them, they resort to cheating. Hillbilly Dennis gets a near fall on Cuban #2 before it is broken up by the Cuban veteran. Don gets in and is immediately isolated and double teamed. Ring shaking double suplex and a big elbow drop from the middle rope. Cuban Assassin #2 chases off Hillbilly Dennis as Cuban Assassin hooks a leg for the pinfall. The Cubans are booed as they celebrate in the ring while Dennis checks on his brother. That's all the time today as Bert Prentice signs off but reminds everyone to come back next week for more Bluegrass Championship Wrestling!

Autistic Dragon Posted November 29, 2024 Report Share Posted November 29, 2024 Good to see Bert and RPG together again. Todd Morton may have finally found a good home. Wouldn't be a Bert Prentice territory without at least one Renesto . What the hell was up with that lady? The Cubans prove why they're another Prentice mainstay.

spaldoni Posted November 29, 2024 Report Share Posted November 29, 2024 Welcome back! It's so fun seeing Bert and Ronnie's bantering back in our game. This is a place Todd Morton can make an impression. I hope Renesto goes full on Assassin. WHOA! Who was that lady and what was she saying? The Cubans will bring the heat here. I'm glad you and your great take on a true territory is back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LastStopTour Posted December 7, 2024 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2024 Voiceover: You are watching Bluegrass Championship Wrestling on WPSD-TV, Channel 6. Wrestling action to snappy music plays interspersed with images of Kentucky to kick off the program. Bluegrass Championship Wrestling December 7th, 1989 TV Taping - WPSD-TV, Channel 6 Studios Paducah, Kentucky Announcers: Bert Prentice & Ronnie Gossett Referee: Bruno Laurer We are back! Host Bert welcomes everyone to Bluegrass Championship Wrestling's Power Half Hour and introduces his co-host Ronnie Gossett. Gossett was surprised they had enough money to be here two weeks in a row. Bert wants to know if it is going to be "one of those days"? Ronnie says he's paid to tell it like it is and he can't help it if Bert can't handle the truth. Anyway, back to today's program ... we have Tim Renesto in action today, taking on Lou Winston which should be a good one. Allen Martin takes on Tony Williams and in our opener, we've got a couple of youngsters with Bobby Starr and Johnny Hotbody. Ronnie is not impressed with this lineup. It was better last week when the Cuban Assassins were in the studio. Today's episode should be a real snoozer and thinks someone should be ashamed of themselves. Bert tells him to cut that out. Okay, now that they cut through all the red tape, Ronnie Gossett tells Bert to go ahead and ask his questions. Bert wants to know what Gossett is blabbering about now? You know you want to ask. Go ahead. Bert wants to know what he is supposed to be asking about? Go ahead ask whatever you want ... Bert wants to know if we can just get on with the rest of the program? Gossett says that when God was handing out brains, Bert must have been playing hooky that day. You want to know what's in my wrestling museum ... the nationally recognized wrestling museum, he adds. Oh brother. Okay, Bert bites and asks what's in the museum? Gossett won't answer that because he has to pay the entry fee first! Gossett charges people to go to his museum? Bet that makes a lot of money. Gossett says it does ... much more than he gets paid for his expertise on this program. He does say that his prized possession is the Assassin mask worn by Tom Renesto Sr. and was given to Ronnie Gossett after they won the World titles. Rolling his eyes, Bert goes to a commercial break. ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- We return to Bert telling Ronnie to behave before throwing it to the ring! Bobby Starr versus Johnny Hotbody. We get the bell and the two men tie up ... The woman from last week makes her way to the ring followed by someone in a black hooded robe. She says something and pulls the hood back. The wild looking man jumps into the ring and attacks both men. He softens them up with forearms before ragdolling them with suplexes. Referee Bruno Laurer calls for the bell then tries to jump in but quickly backs away when the man with the crazed look in his eye comes for him. We keep getting the bell and Bert Prentice calling for Security to come out here. The woman gets into the ring and says something to her man and pulls the hood back over his head which seems to immediately immobilize him. She leads him to the back to a chorus of boos. Right now, we need to restore order and take a station break! ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- Back from commercial, we are back with the hosts talking about what happened before the break. Gossett wants to know why his safety isn't more of a concern with that woman being allowed to run around here and do as she pleases? This needs to be nipped in the bud before the hoodoo only gets worse. Not that again? Gossett calls Bert an unbeliever but mark his words, he knows better. Bert wants him to stop that but Ronnie says he won't and as a son of gypsies and a long line of Romney witches, he knows ... Bert gives him a look and says that if Ronnie Gossett is a gypsy, well then he's the King of England, now can we get back to the wrestling? Tony Williams versus Allen Martin. Quick little match with the technician Martin slowing the pace against Williams who comes out all fired up. Slow and steady wins the race today as Martin rolls Williams all over the mat and finally pinning him. Martin joins Bert and Ronnie. Talks about wrestling here in Kentucky and Southern style rasslin that he is used to which should get him far. Mentions looking forward wrestling for a belt and representing the great folks here in the Studio and watching from home. Bert sends it to a break. ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- Local ad with Tony Falk ... Tony Falk: Do you want to become a wrestler, a manager or a valet? Call the number below and we can get you on the path to stardom! Call today! Back to Bert and Ronnie with Bert repeating the phone number to call if anyone is looking for a career in the business. He says that Ronnie should call, maybe they could train him to simply be a better person. Oh har de har har! Ronnie says he's been there, done that. Wrestler ... check. Manager ... check. He adds championship wrestler as well as a manager of champions. Maybe Bert should call and get some training on how to be a REAL announcer. Bert says that Ronnie should be one to talk. Gossett says he could do a MUCH better job all by himself, without Bert holding them back. Moving on ... we have Tim Renesto taking on Lou Winston ... Tim Renesto versus Lou Winston. Handshake to start things off. Some basic wrestling to start as they try to feel out their opponents. Winston works the arm, not letting Renesto get free no matter what he counters with. Bert calls the former tag team specialist a wily ring veteran who knows all the tricks of the trade. Ronnie says that Renesto would have the veteran savvy IF he had followed in his father's footsteps. Bert tells him to knock that off. Throughout the match, Gossett reminisces about the good old days when the likes of the Assassins ruled the territories. They don't make wrestlers like Tom Renesto anymore. Eye roll from Bert as he continues to call the match. Winston catches Renesto with a flying cross body block but Tim is able to roll through and come out on top ... 1! 2! Winston kicks out. Gossett says that wouldn't have happened if he was Renesto's manager. Bert asks if he would have held Winston's legs down? Of course not, that would be cheating. Irish whip on Renesto who slides through Winston's legs on the return. Standing drop kick sends Lou through the ropes to the outside. Bouncing back against the ropes, Renesto takes off ... baseball slide to the outside and wipes out Winston. He slaps a few hands before rolling Winston into the ring. On the ring apron, Renesto pumps his fist in the air before using the ropes to propel himself up and into the ring ... LEGDROP! HE HOOKS A LEG! 1! 2! 3! TIM RENESTO PICKS UP THE WIN! Imagine that, Tim Renesto did his daddy proud as Renesto celebrates with the fans. That's all the time today as Bert Prentice signs off but reminds everyone to come back next week for more Bluegrass Championship Wrestling!

LastStopTour Posted December 18, 2024 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2024 This week ... Around the Territory! Though new to the game and considerably smaller in scope than some of their bigger cousins, Bluegrass Championship Wrestling has certainly started with a bang with a mixture of hardcore ring veterans and some of the smaller athletic guys along with a few seasoned hands who have been not only durable but are known commodities in the area. Wrestlers Gypsy Joe and the Cuban Assassin, though largely kept off of television, have been tearing up the house show circuit with a bloody feud that fills the seats. Night in and night out, these two have been shedding each other's blood like nobody's business and continue to entertain and pack the houses. How long these two can continue on this break neck pace is anyone's guess. Another veteran with close ties to Memphis, Tony Falk, has been hawking his training school on television as well as working with new recruits and anyone interested in the business. Wrestlers, managers and valets are all fair game. With interest in the promotion from outside of the Kentucky/Tennessee area, Texas has provided the likes of Jason Sterling, the high flying barefoot Canadian that now calls the Dallas/Ft. Worth area home and joins the youngest son of the famed Von Erich family, Chris Von Erich. What Von Erich brings to the table is unknown but like his older brothers looks to take the family act outside of Texas. It should be noted that Kentucky has also become the new stomping grounds of several women wrestlers looking to ply their trade. Of note, Misty Blue Simmes has come to the territory with hopes of showing just what she can do in the squared circle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LastStopTour Posted December 21, 2024 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2024 Voiceover: You are watching Bluegrass Championship Wrestling on WPSD-TV, Channel 6. Wrestling action to snappy music plays interspersed with images of Kentucky to kick off the program. Bluegrass Championship Wrestling December 14th, 1989 TV Taping - WPSD-TV, Channel 6 Studios Paducah, Kentucky Announcers: Bert Prentice & Ronnie Gossett Referee: Bruno Laurer We are back! Host Bert welcomes everyone to Bluegrass Championship Wrestling's Power Half Hour and introduces his co-host Ronnie Gossett is pretty sure everyone knows who he is by now. Bert says that if he didn't introduce him, Ronnie would complain about it. Gossett nods his head and says probably. Anyway, back to today's program ... what do we have in store for today? Jason Sterling takes on the Zebra Kid. Gossett doesn't know much about Sterling other than he comes to us from Texas, he wrestles barefoot and his father is quite a wrestler in his own right, making Jason and his brother second generation wrestlers. Bert shoots him a look and wonders what kind of synopsis we would get if Ronnie actually knew something about the wrestler. Gossett says Bert is just jealous and he shouldn't use such big words in these parts ... the people here are not too bright. Bert tells him to cut that out and apologizes. Oh by the way, Gossett is happy to report he was able to dig down deep into the identity of the witchy woman who has been out here the last two weeks. Her name is Lock and she has ties to the Prince of Evil, Kevin Sullivan. Looks like Sullivan wants to spread his darkness all across the state of Kentucky with it's own history of witches and gypsies over the last 300 years. Bert finds her downright scary and Gossett says that isn't all as she brings in a tag team for our main event. The two unfortunate souls having to deal with that are the Hillbillies who are still reeling from their defeat at the hands of the Cuban Assassins ... Gary U.S. Royal comes out followed by youngster Bobby Starr in a red, white and blue singlet. Royal says he's going take this young man under his wing and promises to take care of the likes of the Cuban Assassins and the Tazmaniac! Starr is proud to stand with Royal and promises he will do everything in his power to make sure Royal and all these good people believe in him! There you have it, Bert goes to a commercial break. ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- We return to Bert telling Ronnie to behave before throwing it to the ring! The Zebra Kid versus Jason Sterling The masked man heels it up with the fans before we get to the match and after the bell refuses to get in the ring, slowing Sterling who looks ready to go. Finally underway, fairly athletic match with a speedy Sterling putting Zebra through his paces as he tries to slow the match down. Several armdrags, a high drop kick and a flying head scissor takedown gets the fans on their feet. A discombobulated Zebra is nearly pinned but is able to kick out of it. Throughout, Ronnie is trying to notify the referee that Sterling is cheating. The match is slowed when Sterling takes a thumb to the eye. Bert supposes Jason Sterling cheated there, too? Rake across the back has him in pain as the Zebra Kid follows him around the ring dishing it out. Clothesline leads to a cover and a two count that leaves the Kid arguing with ref Bruno over a slow count. Zebra follows with elbow drops and a fist drop from the middle rope to soften up Sterling before making another cover ... 1! 2! KICK OUT! Zebra jumps to his feet and celebrates a victory before Bruno pulls his arms down, saying it was only a two count. We get a shoving match between the two as the referee protects himself and Jason Sterling intervenes with an inside cradle ... 1! 2! 3! JASON STERLING HAS PINNED THE ZEBRA KID! Jason rolls out of the ring followed by the ref while the Zebra Kid kicks at the ropes and complains about the finish. Right now, we need to take a station break! ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- Local ad with Tony Falk ... Tony Falk: Do you want to become a wrestler, a manager or a valet? Call the number below and we can get you on the path to stardom! Call today! Back to Bert and Ronnie with Bert repeating the phone number to call if anyone is looking for a career in the business. Gossett thinks it is a waste of time and money. Bert tells him to knock that off. Tony Falk is a well respected and seasoned wrestler in these parts. The Hillbillies come to the ring to a cheer and have the unenviable task of facing Lock's tag team, whoever they may be. Last week, we saw her Tazmaniac put on a one man demolition show, what does this week hold? We don't have to wait long to find out as the Tazmaniac follows her out to the ring. Bert says maybe we are getting a handicap match? NO! A second Tazmaniac makes his way out to the ring, grunting and growling at the fans as they move out of the way. They both charge the ring and get right to it! The Hillibillies versus The Tazmaniacs w/Lock. It is a brawl with the two wildmen on the attack. They toss Dennis to the outside and double team Donnie. Double hip toss into a stomp fest which looks like it is going to be an early night with Bruno counting towards a disqualification. They break off the attack just in time and Taz #2 hammers Donnie all over the ring. Taz #1 gets in and throws Donnie around. Big suplexes. Taz #2 nails Dennis getting on the ring apron to keep him away from the action. Double suplex and Taz #2 with a double stomp off the middle rope which draws a warning. The manhandled Donnie is thrown into his corner and we get a Hillbilly tag. Dennis in with right hands for Taz #1 who laughs it off and tags out. Taz #2 in and he invites right hands from Dennis and takes them, laughing as well. Gossett makes a comment about these two feeling no pain. Double clothesline puts Dennis down and he takes a stomping. Bert says these two are like sharks, circling for the kill. Outside the ring, Lock threatens fans, making wild gestures and hissing at them. Ronnie Gossett is glad she is staying over there. Both Hillbillies are dragged into the ring and beaten. No pin attempts in the match as the Tazmaniacs appear to be content just beating on their opponents. Lock with directions to her men and Taz #2 leaves the ring. He collects a folding chair and slides it into the ring. Taz #1 with a belly-to-belly suplex onto the chair and referee Bruno calls for the bell and the immediate disqualification. They don't stop there and continue the assault on the Hillbillies that has the fans in the studio pelting them in the ring. Lock climbs into the ring and directs her animals. Taz #1 grabs the chair and nails Donnie over the head. Dennis gets one before the Taz uses the chair to Dennis' throat. Ref Bruno calls for the bell again and Bert is calling for help from the back all the while Lock dances around the ring. Leaving the ring, Taz #1 with the chair eyes the camera and moves towards it. Getting right up to it, he swings the chair ... No video feed but we can hear the bell being rung over and over as well as the sounds of chaos and pandemonium around the ring ...

LastStopTour Posted December 28, 2024 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2024 Voiceover: You are watching Bluegrass Championship Wrestling on WPSD-TV, Channel 6. Wrestling action to snappy music plays interspersed with images of Kentucky to kick off the program. Bluegrass Championship Wrestling December 21st, 1989 TV Taping - WPSD-TV, Channel 6 Studios Paducah, Kentucky Announcers: Bert Prentice & Ronnie Gossett Referee: Bruno Laurer We are back! Host Bert wearing a Santa hat, welcomes everyone to Bluegrass Championship Wrestling's Power Half Hour and introduces his co-host Ronnie Gossett. After wishing Ronnie and everyone a Merry Christmas, Bert wonders why there was no snide comment or bah, humbug? Bert took him for a Scrooge but maybe Gossett has a heart afterall? Ronnie tells him not to push his luck! Bert says this is the last television program of the year, heading into Christmas and the New Year but there are plenty of shows in the area until we come back on the air! A graphic runs the house shows into the New Year. Before getting to today's program, Bert wants to discuss last week's program. He runs down the ending from last week and all the chaos and pandemonium caused by Lock's Tazmaniacs who really lived up to their names. Bert then introduces the WPSD Program Director who wants to get right to it, so they can get to the wrestling today. He talks about all the calls and letters the station received about what went on, then the damage done in studio. The Tazmaniacs have been banned from the building today and should they cause any further trouble, they will be permanently banned. We can't have that kind of behavior in the studio that causes damage and is potential dangerous to all the fans here watching the wrestling. Both Bert and Ronnie believe that was a wise decision, if for nothing else, Gossett believes his life was endangered. After the Program Director leaves, Bert adds that the proper authorities have been notified of the actions of Lock's Tazmaniacs and action is sure to be taken which brings him to the next bit of important news. Bluegrass Championship Wrestling has joined with Memphis' CWA and the UWF under the governing auspices of the United States Wrestling Association. We'll have more information in the upcoming weeks ... Ronnie was wondering when Bert was going to let the "cat out of the bag"? Bert wants to know what Ronnie is talking about now? Gossett says he's known about this little tidbit for weeks now. Bert says that he didn't know a thing about it but Ronnie cuts him off and reminds Bert that he is on the pulse of professional wrestling and knows well before anyone else ... just like he know the identity of Lock before anyone else! Anyway, back to today's program ... We have Gary U.S. Royal and Bobby Starr, The All-Americans, in action today taking on Alan Martin and Tony Williams. Tim Renesto is here today and he will be facing off against Convict #1. Ronnie asks Bert if he notices anything about today's matches but Bert doesn't know what Ronnie's getting at. Gossett says none of the wrestlers involved have him as a manager! Bert thinks that is probably for the best for all involved. Bert throws it to a commercial break. ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- We return to Bert telling Ronnie to behave after being told that he's just jealous of the most amazing manager in all of professional wrestling. Bert says there are quite a few managers out there that would dispute that claim! Ronnie wants him to name one! Bert lists off several before sending us to the ring ... Tim Renesto versus Convict #1 The Convict attacks before the bell and uses the early advantage to put Renesto on the defensive. Near pinfall in the opening minute of the match before the second generation wrestler kicks out. Renesto leaves the ring to shake out the cobwebs but Gossett calls him a coward for running away. Tom Renesto Sr. would be very disappointed in his son right now! Telling him to knock that off, Bert defends Renesto for leaving the ring to catch a breather AND Tim Renesto Sr. is very proud of his son who followed in his footsteps! Ronnie says he isn't because Senior was a Champion, unlike either of his sons! Renesto gets to work with several armdrags and keeping on his opponent. SIde headlock is broken but as the Convict pats himself on the back, Renesto reapplys it and cranks even more. Shoved off into the ropes, Renesto comes back as the Convict dips his head just a tad too early ... DIVING OVER THE TOP ... Tim Renesto with a sunset flip ... THE COVER ...1! ... 2! ... KICKOUT! Renesto with a forearm, follows with a drop kick that sends The Convict to the outside. Throwing himself back against the ropes, Renesto charges forward ... BASEBALL SLIDE TAKES OUT THE CONVICT! Renesto bounces his opponent's head off the ring apron before rolling him back in ... SCOOP SLAM! RENESTO TO THE TOP ... FROG SPLASH! 1! 2! 3! TIM RENESTO PICKS UP THE WIN! Tim Renesto joins our hosts and is congratulated by Bert for the victory. Tim says he's looking forward to facing the top competition here in Kentucky and is excited by the news of BCW joining the United States Wrestling Association. We'll be getting World Champions passing through area and that means title opportunities. After he leaves, Ronnie syas that will be the day, Tim Renesto beats a World Champion! He was lucky to get by The Convict today, forget about anyone else! Bert says he noticed that Ronnie waited until Tim left before saying anything, maybe he shold have said something while Tim was here? Right now, we need to take a station break! ----- COMMERCIAL BREAK ----- Local ad with Tony Falk ... Tony Falk: Do you want to become a wrestler, a manager or a valet? Call the number below and we can get you on the path to stardom! Call today! Back to Bert and Ronnie with Bert repeating the phone number to call if anyone is looking for a career in the business. Gossett wants to now how long we are going to continue to hear this worthless commercials? Bert tells him to knock that off. Tony Falk is a well respected and seasoned wrestler in these parts. We have tag team action next with the All-Americans, Gary U.S. Royal and Bobby Starr taking on Alan Martin and Tony Williams. The All-Americans versus Alan Martin & Tony Williams Good tag team action with the veterans of the two teams keeping their team in the match while the two youngsters are the weak spots. They trade near pinfalls Royal and Martin really bringing it. Back and forth without one getting much of an advantage over the other as they execute move after move. The fans are split over who to cheer for and wind up cheering both teams ... WAIT A SECOND! IT'S LOCK AND THE TAZMANIACS! Despite being banned from the studio, Lock has led her troops here to foil the main event and continue to spread the chaos of Kevin Sullivan! Charging the ring, they attack anybody and everybody in front of them! The referee is tossed to the outside before Starr and Williams are jumped on. Both men are demolished and tossed to the outside, making way for Royal and Martin to stand up to them. The ring vets brawl with the wildmen and work together and take down Tazmaniac #2 but #1 gets the upperhand as he takes down both with a flying double clothesline. Royal is up first and is grabbed ... SUPLEX! #1 pulls him up again and dumps him on the mat with another suplex. Referee Bruno calling for the bell and Bert Prentice calling for security from the back! The second week in a row and the studio is total mayhem with fans and Ronnie Gossett fleeing for their lives as the battle leaves the ring ... With wrestlers pouring out from the back, Bert Prentice wishes everyone a Merry Christmas as he signs off and reminds everyone that Bluegrass Championship Wrestling returns in January! SEE YOU THEN!
