I have got nothing for Paul Jones... so he has left Windy City and in his place, Sherri Martel will return in a manger role.

Sorry about that.

WCPW Nightmare in Naperville! February 24th - Naperville, Illinois - Civic Center Joe Pedicino: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Windy City Pro Wrestling’s…. NIGHTMARE IN NAPERVILLE! We’ve got a great card tonight including the WCPW Tag Team titles on the line as the Nasty Boys take on the Battens… plus we’ll see a no disqualification match between the Dynamic Dudes and the Moondogs! Our main event tonight is going to be a special six-man tag with Austin Idol, Buddy Landel, & Jim Garvin taking on Harley Race, Terry Taylor, & Chris Adams! Plus so much more… let’s get going with our opening contest… White Lightning & Black Thunder vs The Samoan Savages w/ Skandar Akbar The Savages come out with the fire sticks and put everyone on edge Lightning and Thunder get some offense in but this is a great showcase for the Savages Tama and Tonga both lay in some serious lumber with potato after potato The finish is pretty slick with Tama hitting a powerslam and then Tonga coming off the top rope with a diving headbutt! 3-count… the Savages… they look like a force to be reckoned with Scott Steiner vs the Grappler Big time contest for Scott Steiner who is going up against his toughest test yet The Grappler hasn’t quite hit his stride here in Windy City but his favor looks to change tonight Grappler goes low every chance he gets Steiner has got the crowd behind him and he finds a way to stay in the match and work over the Grappler Things are looking bleak but then the Grappler goes outside the ring and then under the ring? Steiner goes out and he’s looking for Grappler… but the Grappler comes out the other side? What in the world is going on here? The Grappler… maybe… attacks Steiner from behind. He tosses him into the ringpost and Steiner hits it the wrong way… he’s busted above the eye Grappler climbs back in the ring… the referee continues to count…he gets to 10! The Grappler has won via count out… but the crowd isn’t happy and Steiner isn’t done! Steiner… wiping the blood from his eye then goes and grabs under the ring… OH MY… he’s got something! Steiner pulls out… The Grappler?! The other Grappler jumps down and now Steiner is being double teamed and left for dead They pick him up for a double suplex outside the ring on the concrete! {Pure chaos to get the night started and Steiner is a mess as he’s helped to the back. No clue on how this one will end up. We then see the Samoan Savages lead out Skandar Akbar and the Mighty Kamala! The Ugandan Giant is something to behold. Some of the kids in the crowd are terrified until the music hits for the Iceman who comes out to a great ovation!} Iceman Parsons vs Kamala w/ Skandar Akbar Iceman is still looking to find a way to get his rhythm here in WCPW Kamala is just a monster who attacks him right from the get go Iceman is fighting back with everything he’s got but can’t seem to get it together Kamala with a huge slam and then he begins to bite the head of Iceman The referee has lost control of this for all intents and purposes When the referee grabs Kamala then the Samoans come over and sneak in some shots Iceman is in a no win situation here as Kamala picks up Iceman on his shoulder… he runs to the ropes and tosses him to the floor! Iceman looks like he lands right on his head and there’s the referee counting Akbar is a nut outside the ring as the referee gets to 10 and then the Savages go to work on Iceman They toss him back in the ring. Kamala has won via count out Iceman is then hit with a double gutbuster followed up by a big splash from Kamala {The officials take Iceman out on a stretcher… he doesn’t look to be in a good way at all. We see Danny Spivey come out and he checks on Iceman… these guys are friends but Spivey has got someone in the ring waiting for him… Cuban Assassin… Fidel Sierra! Dan Spivey vs Cuban Assassin Spivey continues to build steam The fans are really behind him right now Assassin is another heel to help get Spivey over and he does it in convincing fashion Spivey is able to work him over… hit a big boot… then HELICOPTER TOSS! 1….2….3!!! Spivey wins this one and works the crowd. {Next up, Pedicino announces the big no disqualification tag team match. We see the Moondogs come out and needless to say they are looking rough. Then we see Zenk and Ace come out to a great ovation. Let’s see how this goes.} NO DISQUALIFICATION Dynamic Dudes vs The Moondogs Big time match for both of these teams. We find out the winners of this match will take on the Tag Champs in two weeks in Gurnee The bones are used early Zenk and Ace are definitely out of their element. The highlight of the match is when the Moondogs are double teaming Johnny Ace outside the ring and then Tom Zenk gets out on the apron and runs down the apron and leaps onto both Moondogs to pop the crowd! This is the turn of the tide… Zenk and Ace are putting it together… The final moments are pretty fun…Zenk and Ace toss Rex to the ropes and then hit a double back drop over the top rope to the floor! Ace and Zenk then run at Spot and duck a clothesline before hitting the ropes and nailing a big double dropkick! Zenk with the cover for the 3-count! {Ace and Zenk get the win and work the crowd. They’ll be taking on the WCPW Tag Team Champions when WCPW heads to Gurnee, Illinois for the Carnage at the Carnival! Now… time to find out… who will be the champions?} WCPW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP The Batten Twins vs The Nasty Boys © A nice little contest for both teams. The Nasties are definitely the better team The Battens do work well enough together and get in some offense to make the match look good… but this is another showcase for what the Nasty Boys bring to the table. The finish sees the Nasties hit a double shoulder breaker on Brad Sags then comes off the middle rope with an elbow right to Batten’s throat and then the 3-count. {The tag champs look good here. The Nasty Boys are set to take on the Dynamic Dudes in a couple of weeks but don’t forget about the Rockers and the New Breed… right now we get to see Bad News and Hase!} Hiro Hase vs Bad News Brown In a little bit of a weird contest, Bad News beats the hell out of Hase He makes pretty quick work of him and then hits the Ghetto Blaster Brown with the 3-count… but this isn’t over… He goes over and grabs the referee…. Wait a second… that’s the same referee who was in his heavyweight title match a week ago! Brown is slapping him around and then a bodyslam! Bad News doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon but then the crowd stirs… Danny Spivey comes running down to the ring and Bad News retreats This referee is in a bad way as Spivey checks on him. {Bad News works the crowd up pretty well here on his way to the back. Spivey and other officials check on the referee who is in a bad way. We then build up to our next contest… a tag team encounter with some serious stakes on the line… let’s go to the ring…} The Rockers vs The New Breed A really well put together tag team encounter with all four men really leaving it out in the ring The New Breed are just edgy enough to get some heat while the Rockers are without a doubt the favorites here in WCPW We get a fun 13-minute affair with double team moves and quick tags. The match could go either way at any moment but as time winds down the action picks up The New Breed has the edge and the finish is pretty special… Royal is set to come off the top rope on Jannetty for a cross body but out of nowhere… Shawn Michaels with a dropkick right into his chest! Royal gets up but then Jannetty runs and crossbodies him over the top rope to the floor! Michaels with the cover for the 3-count! {The Rockers win… they have got things going their way…but do they get a title shot in the future? We’ll find out soon enough. The stage is now set for this huge main event… the crowd is stirring. Here with go…} Joe Pedicino: Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for our main event. This is a one fall match with a sixty minute time limit. A special addition to this match is that if Harley Race’s team wins, then Harley Race will receive a championship match against Austin Idol for the Windy City Heavyweight Championship. Now… introducing first… Pedicino: From the United Kingdom… Gentlemen Chris Adams! From Greenville, South Carolina… Terry Taylor! From Kansas City, Missouri… the former NWA World Heavyweight Champion… Harley Race! Pedicino: Their opponents… first… from Tampa, Florida… he is accompanied by Precious… Jimmy Garvin! Next… from Knoxville, Tennessee… Buddy Landel! Their partner… the reigning Windy City Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Champion… from Tampa, Florida… Austin Idol! Harley Race, Chris Adams & Terry Taylor vs Austin Idol, Jimmy Garvin, & Buddy Landel A main event if there ever was one… these six-men go 28-minutes and it is something to behold Garvin and Adams have got some serious heat with one another and the crowd eats it up Landel and Taylor are well enough and keep the momentum of the match going Then we get Race and Idol and these fans come unglued After our big showdowns… things get mixed around… and without question… Chris Adams is the mvp here He is rocking all over the ring and he looks like a star in the making At the 20-minute mark we see Harley Race get double teamed by Garvin and Landel and then sent out to the floor… that is when Austin Idol leaps off the apron with a knee to the back of the head This gives the heels a 3 on 2 and they go to work on Terry Taylor… they wear his ass out before he makes a tag to Adams who comes in to get things heated up The heels are all bumping around for him but they also have the advantage and take control This leads to a huge tag to Harley Race who found his way up to the apron He comes in with some serious rights and lefts! Austin Idol is doing eveythting he can to stay away from him but Race grabs him with a headbutt and then tosses him over the top rope to the floor. Garvin then comes with a knee to the back and Race hits the turnbuckle Garvin turns around and SUPERKICK from Adams and he goes out of the ring to the floor Buddy Landel runs for a clothesline but Adams ducks and then hits another SUPERKICK on Landel… that sets up Race for a running high knee! Race covers for the 1….2…..3!!! {Harley Race and his team have won it! The crowd pops for Harley… he is going to be taking on Idol in two weeks in Gurnee! Taylor doesn’t appear to be in too good of shape. Idol isn’t happy about this… can he walk out with the title next time he and Race meet one on one?}

The big brawl... wow... great stuff. I am really enjoying the team of Larry Z and Al Perez. These two work in a way that makes me think the sky is the limit. Mulligan leads an eclectic group to victory. A bloody battle will set the crowd on fire. Colon over Snuka looks to be interesting. The Death Match is Colon's deal and no one else can match him. Jerry Jarrett now controls the AWA... which means... well we'll find out. Tommy Rich... the man... one of my faves and he is on top of the AWA. Who is next in line... who can beat him... who can challenge him... WrestleRock 87 is coming... can't wait!

I am still getting used to Big Daddy Ritter... but he is making some decent waves. He has something left in the tank... maybe not much but something. I am a big fan of Wild Bill. I met him once. Super dude. Duggan as a top tier guy in the NWA is an interesting thing. Like what would have happened had he gone after getting fired? Could he have made a splash or was that big Americana movement past its prime? Looking forward to Crockett Cup... I'd throw you some Windy City guys if you need them!

PCW is showing off some great talent and you continue to build some great stuff. I have to commend you on putting out a great promotion with some really great young talent. It is like this is the fresh wave of wrestling that people can get behind. Black Tiger winning the title is a big moment. I love the Pillman v Bubba pairing... it is something I really want to see. Can't wait for the continuation.

The Big Brawl looks to be a top tier show right now. So much on the line and you've got match after match with stakes all over. I think for me... it is Sawyer and Rich... how can the Wildfire reign supreme against the Mad Dog. I also have some investment in this 10-man and control of the AWA moving forward. Hook, line, and sinker... now I am ready to see what happens!

What a card... Savage v Borne for me was the one I'd love to see. I don't think Macho gets enough credit for his ability to go in these types of matches throughout history. The six-man was a little surprise but I really enjoy this team of Haystacks, Street, and Dundee. It is the right kind of weird that keeps me glued in. Lastly, a TV title change in the middle of everything... perhaps overshadowed... but hopefully it can rise out of the remains of what was a spectacular show.

The Champ Champ Champ reigns supreme...Could Medusa be the one? I kind of hope so but I also love the dominance.

I appreciate how well you're doing with the loops and keeping them fresh. At this point, I want to find a Brian Pillman Big Bubba match... that could be something. The Gantner's are tough competitors but the Harts are some of the best in the business. Windham with a "loss" to Hart's men... could be a chink in the armor but I think he has got plenty left in the tank.

Windy City Drops Cpl. Kirchner for the Cuban Assassin Fidel Sierra Drops the Baron for Tony Anthony

Windy City Pro Wrestling Live from the Rockford, Illinois - Boylan High School Friday Night February 11th - 8:00pm Bell Time Joe Pedicino: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Windy City Pro Wrestling! We are the premiere wrestling promotion in the Chicagoland area and we are so excited to be here tonight in Rockford. We have got 11 matches on the card tonight… two title matches… plus the return of KAMALA! Right now it is time for our opening contest… Scott Steiner vs Star Master II Star Master II (Ken Wayne) comes out in a basic masked gimmick Steiner comes out and looks like a specimen We see some big time power moves Steiner is bumping him all over the ring Scotty has got the crowd pumped up and then he hits the twilt-a-whirl slam! Scotty makes the call and grabs Star for a double underhook powerbomb! 1….2….3! Scott Steiner gets the victory and works the crowd {Scotty makes his way to the back but before he goes in he sees the Dynamic Dudes who come out to some fun Rock Music. Steiner high fives them as they come down to the ring for their contest…} Dynamic Dudes vs The Moondogs The Moondogs come out and needless to say they aren’t in a playing mood They start brawling with the Dudes who were looking at more of a wrestling match Rex and Spot are nasty here… biting… scratching… barking Zenk and Ace turn the tide and use some speed The Moondogs appear to go into business for themselves Zenk is able to hit a big dropkick off the top rope on Rex Ace rolls him up for a 3-count and the Dudes get out by the skin of their teeth {Zenk and Ace get out of the ring and are backing away. The Moondog appear to want some more as they go after the Dudes down the aisle. We then see the entrance of Gentlemen Chris Adams who is in our next contest…} Chris Adams vs Hiroshi Hase The Gentlemen looks stellar tonight Hase is more or less a JTTS here Hase works Adams’ style and makes him look good The finish is a superkick out of nowhere by Adams and then the 3-count! {Adams works the crowd as he heads to the back. We then see Buddy Landel come out but he isn’t alone… he has got Jimmy Garvin and Precious with him!?! What in the world is this? Garvin and Adams have words…} Iceman Parsons vs Buddy Landel w/ Garvin & Precious The Iceman is outmanned and womanned out here tonight but he’s got the fans going wild! Iceman is able to dance and move around to get the crowd going We see a pretty even contest with both men getting some offense The addition of Garvin and Precious is something the Iceman wasn’t ready for and they do get involved Iceman gets into a groove but we see Garvin grab his leg, Iceman turns around and here comes Landel with a knee to his back, sending him out of the ring to the floor! Landel grabs the referee while Garvin picks up Iceman and DDT! Garvin throws the lifeless Iceman back into the ring Landel gets the referee’s attention as he gets the cover for the 3-count {Landel and Garvin eat up the hatred from the crowd. The fans are really letting them have it. In the entryway… waiting for him… it’s Chris Adams! Adams comes with a couple of huge rights and lefts! It is a two on one brawl with officiels running down. Out comes Terry Taylor to join Adams and now the sides are evened up! This one is spilling into the fans. The crowd is cheering for Adams and Taylor while Garvin and Landel retreat.} Terry Taylor vs The Grappler Taylor then heads to the ring and awaiting him is the Grappler who pounces right away Grappler is really working him over while Taylor is trying to get to his feet The referee has lost control of this one already Things only get worse when we see the team of Gravin and Landel come out one more time and then pull Taylor out of the ring and go on the attack! This is complete chaos Taylor wins the match via DQ but that’s really a mute point {The Grappler joins in as once again Adams runs down to the ring to break it up. Garvin and Landel leave the ring, doing their damage… Taylor doesn’t look good. Next up is our tag team title matchup. Here comes the Nasty Boys… titles in toe… and then we see the NEW BREED!} WCPW Tag Team Championship The New Breed vs The Nasty Boys © Pretty good contest here for both teams These guys work for about 15-minutes and give and take for one another The New Breed is definitely a step above the Nasty Boys but Sags and Knobbs can break every rule in the book The other issue is that the Nasties are very sloppy and a nasty top rope neck drop on Champion just doesn’t go well Champion looks to be seriously injured and grasping his throat Here comes Royal but the 2 on 1 is too much This one looks like it is cut short and we get a big spike piledriver for the 3-count! {The Nasty Boys get the win… they work the fans… Champion seems to be in a bad way as he and Royal walk to the back… we then have some officials come out and talk to Pedicino who says “what the hell?”} Joe Pedicino: Fans I have just been notified that Harley Race was injured in the back… he will not be in action tonight. We apologize for this. We would like to… {Here comes Austin Idol and low and behold… he’s got Jim Garvin, Buddy Landel, & Precious with him! They come down to the ring…} Joe Pedicino: Austin Idol… what do we owe the pleasure? Austin Idol: It isn’t what you owe me… but it is what all these people owe me! You see… moments ago… I took that old dog Harley Race… I took him out back and put him out of his misery! Race… I told you before pally… this is the new era of wrestling jack. You are looking at the triangle of terror here man. The three men that run Windy City and now… we’ve got you out of the way… it is time to take out Adams and Taylor. Joe Pedicino: So you’re the one who attacked Harley Race? Landel: That’s right Pedicino… lemme set the record straight that Harley Race just didn’t belong here. He is no longer needed and we wish him the best on his future endeavors. Now… we have got our eyes set on other things and baby… the sky is the limit! Jimmy Garvin: You know something Pedicino… a couple of weeks ago… that good for nothing Chris Adams comes out here and he interrupts me. Well Adams… look at you now boy. Look at us. Standing tall… we’re on top baby and you and Taylor… and Race… haha… you're the rubble that we walk on… {OH MY! Taylor and Adams hit the ring and we’ve got a brawl! These five men are going at it. Officials come out… this is chaos… these guys are out of control!} Harley Race vs The Baron - Canceled due to an injury to Harley Race {Next out… we have got the turncoat… Cpl. Kirchner. He comes out with an American flag that has a huge X on it. The fans don’t like this one bit. Then we see Danny Spivey come out and the fans pop! He shakes the hands and jumps in the ring with some big time energy.} Dan Spivey vs Cpl. Kirchner Kirchner seems to be focused on getting some heat and he’s doing a pretty good job. On the other side… Spivey is becoming perhaps the most popular man in Windy City He has got some great moves and Kirchner sells for him Kirchner is able to get in a little offense and get control only for Spivey to fight his way back We see Spivey hit some rights and lefts before nailing a huge running double ax-handle smash! Kirchner is down and Spivey twirls his finger… what is going on… he picks up Kirchner and hoists him on his back… Spivey spins once and HELICOPTER THROW! OH MY! 1….2…..3! Dan Spivey is the winner and the crowd explodes! {Spivey works the fans on his way out of the arena. We then cut to the ring… the lights go down and we see two guys under masks in the ring… then General Skandar Akbar walks out and he is working the fans… behind him… Tonga…Tama…the Samoan Savages… And then… the Giant… KAMALA! We see them come to the ring and Savages… well they’re causing trouble already…} Black Thunder & White Lightning vs Kamala w/ Skandar Akbar & The Samoan Savages Thunder and Lightning aren’t even able to make a move here Kamala is all over them He beats both of them within an inch of their lives Some huge slams for both of them He sets them up in the corner and then goes to the middle rope for a splash on both men Kamala then picks up both men and dumps them out of the ring to the floor The referee just counts to 10 and Kamala is the winner {They aren’t done as the Savages pick up Thunder and Lightning to toss them back into the ring and they unload on them. A pair of huge powerslams and some more splashes by Kamala. They are escorted from ringside… needless to say they are going to be something to behold here in Windy City. Meanwhile… Joe Pedicino is joined by Skandar Akbar… Joe Pedicino: Akbar… what in the world is going on here? Akbar: Pedicino: I have been to the top of the mountain and seen the valleys and peaks… I have been to death valley and see the very edge of hell. From top to bottom… I have never seen anything that can rival my Ugandan Giant Kamala and my Samoan Savages Tama and Tonga! These three men will take me anywhere I want and trust me when I say that the world is ours for the taking! Pedicino: My gosh… fans… we’ve got another big match coming up… get Akbar out of here…. {Next up we see the Nightmares come out as they have got a big match against the Rockers who come out to a huge pop!} The Rockers vs The Nightmares A pretty good contest here with all four of these guys leaving it out there It is a quick contest with a lot of fun moves The Rockers are very over and control the entirety of the match The Nightmares get a little bit of offense in… just enough to build to a Rockers comeback A couple of huge double team moves and then some double dropkicks lead to the Rockers climbing the ropes The big double fist drops spell the end 1…2….3 and the Rockers get the victory. {The Rockers work the crowd and make the sign for the titles. They want the Nasty Boys… when and where will it happen? Next up… our main event… the title on the line… here we go!} Joe Pedicino: Our next contest is the main event of the evening. It is scheduled for one fall with a 60-minute time limit and it is for the Windy City Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Championship!!! Introducing first… he hails from Harlem, New York… ladies and gentlemen… the challenger… Bad News Allen! His opponent… he hails from Tampa, Florida…. He is the reigning… defending… Windy City Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Champion… Ladies and gentlemen… Austin Idol! WCPW Heavyweight Championship Bad News Brown vs Austin Idol © An interesting match with both of these guys not really being loved by the crowd Brown is the pseudo face due to Idol being hated by the crowd This one goes about 19-minutes with both men getting in some offense but neither of them really takes control Party of the issue is how these two just don’t match up Allen is a little more physical that Idol would like and Allen doesn’t appreciate the showmanship of Idol Towards the end of the match we see Idol going for the finish as he is trying to set up Allen for the piledriver… but Bad News isn’t having it. Bad News fights back in a huge way… he is pounding away with rights and lefts and then he goes for a huge GHETTO BLASTER and Idol goes flying through the ropes! Here comes Garvin and Landel to help get Idol up as Allen is looking on with disdain The crowd then explodes when Harley Race runs out… head heavily bandaged! Here comes Taylor and Adams! It is a six-man brawl outside the ring and the crowd is going wild. The referee calls for the bell… this one is over and Bad News is irate! The referee has no choice but Bad News chases him up the rampway Other officials come out to break up these six… Race, Taylor, and Adams are in the ring now… Harley: Listen to me you son of a bitch… I have been around the block a time or two and I have seen guys like you come and go. I am standing right here and I am telling you that I want that title but more importantly… I WANT YOU IN THIS RING! Idol: (Screaming) You can’t touch me Harley… I am the Chicago champion baby and you can’t stop me! Harley Race: I figured you’d try to find some way to get out of this… so I am putting it all on the line right now… the three of us versus the three of you… six-man tag… we win… I get my shot… you win… I don’t. {Adams and Taylor are patting Harley on the back… what a moment…Idol looks on with Landel and Garvin…. They say yes… fans… the Main Event for the Nightmare in Naperville has been set… take a look at this card and we’ll see you there!}

Savage and Borne... Dog Collar... how does the Macho Man come off the top rope when he's attached? I think Hacksaw and the Road Warriors are going to go all the way with the six-man although the team of Dundee, Haystacks, and Street is going to make it interesting!

Wendi Richter is probably the most decorated champion in our universe right now and for good reason. Great job with writing up her dominance. I am excited to see how Luna fares more here and I am a fan of Rhonda and just how good she was for her size. You continue to peak my interest in women's wrestling!

So much to catch up with... love it. I appreciate that little show in the Ellis... classic old school with a big time main event to bring in the fans. In regards to television... obviously Rich and Sawyer is a must and they have all the foundations of a big feud and you get to put your flavor on it.

Hennig vs Bob Orton is a fun little encounter. Curt on his way up while Orton is on the backend but could still go. Konnan vs OMG isn't nearly as spectacular as their wars in 1995 wcw Barry Windham as the top tier is going to be hard for anyone to reach. In 87 he was as smooth as silk and continues to be the man here. I like him as a centerpiece!

WCPW drops Kabuki for the Baron!

Windy City Pro Wrestling Live February 4th The Civic Center in Oakbrook, Illinois Joe Pedicino: Welcome Wrestling fans to WINDY CITY CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING! We have got a TREMENDOUS night of action for you. We will crown NEW Tag Team Champions. We’ll also see Austin Idol defend his title against Terry Taylor! Also tonight we’ll see the debuts of Scott Steiner and this new team… from Sun City… here they come…The Dynamic Dudes! {Here comes The Z-man and Johnny Ace! They have got the look and they seem to have some fans behind them. They are rocking the white tights and boots to go with some orange ring coats. Let’s see what they can do…} The Z-Man & Johnny Ace v The Nightmares The way an opening should be, fresh babyfaces who get the crowd going something special. The Nightmares know their role and get some nice heat on Ace and Z Ace and Z don’t have a ton of skill per say in the ring but their look and flash make up for it. We get a nice heat segment on Johnny Ace who is able to make the big tag to the Z-man He comes in with some big clotheslines and dropkicks The finish is pretty special… Johnny Ace picks up Danny Davis on his shoulders and The Z-man off the top rope with a dropkick What a maneuver and the 3-count spells the end The Dynamic Dudes are off to a hot start and they’ll be paying attention to ho walks away with the tag titles later on tonight! {After the contest, Joe Pedicino gets in the ring to announce the next match but before he does… here comes Austin Idol and Buddy Landel. They are promp and primped to just annoy the hell out of the fans.} Joe Pedicino: What do we owe this pleasure? Austin Idol: I came out here to tell all these morons that they need to go back to the ticket booth. They need to pay double in order to see the champ tonight baby! Joe Pedicino: Oh please… I don’t think these people paid to see you as much as they paid for Terry Taylor to BEAT YOU! Austin Idol: Watch your tongue there Pedicino… I want to make one thing clear as crystal daddy and that is that this title is mine and there is nothing anyone can do about it. Tonight Terry Taylor finds out the hard way but he is the first of many. I don’t care who it is… Terry Taylor… Danny Spivey… or even that broke down ol bag of bones… Harley Race… {Uh oh… here comes Race and he doesn’t look to be in a good mood. He has got his jeans and cowboy boots on and he is unbuttoning his shirt as he throws it to the ground and gets in the ring.} Buddy Landel: Hold it right there old man… you and I are gonna be facing off tonight and well… Harley Race: If you don’t shut your mouth, I will shut it for you! Listen to me… a lot of people have asked why I chose to come here to Windy City. They asked whether I could still go. They asked whether I could still be someone to be reckoned with in this sport and I am here to tell you that as God as my witness I am going to show everyone that I am still Harley Race damnit! Landel… tonight… you’re going to see why I am the only 7 time NWA World Champion and damnit you will respect me! {Race shoves the microphone into Buddy’s chest and he points at Idol and makes the sign for the title belt. Here we go! The ring clears as Pedicino announces our next contest…} Dan Spivey vs The Grappler Big Dan Spivey with a premiere matchup with the Grappler Grappler may not be at the height of his career but he definitely knows how to get some heat and he shows it here tonight. Spivey, even though he’s big, sells very well and makes Grappler look good. Just when you think hope is lot, Big Dan Spivey turns it around and comes back with some big offense. We then see a huge clothesline off the middle rope from Spivey onto Grappler and the 3-count! Big Dan with the win and he is looking like something special here in WCPW! {Dan Spivey shakes hands with the fans and works the crowd. He lingers a little while the intros are done for the next match. That brings out Bad News Allen who looks at Spivey and these two appear to have some kind of an issue. They’re eyeing one another up as they go separate ways.} Iceman Parsons vs Bad News Allen The Iceman has got a good following and perhaps the Oak Brook is hip to his game Bad News… well he is bad news and these two go toe to toe and throw some big time bombs Iceman is all about the show but Bad News isn’t really having it. This one only goes about 8-minutes and serves its purpose to show that Bad News is a force A nasty Judo kick sets up the Ghetto Blaster for the 3-count! {Bad News seems to like letting the fans know he is the man. He is really working the crowd and sometimes saying nothing at all is the most powerful thing. Next up, we’ve got our tag team title tournament…} The Rockers vs The Moondogs Two teams with a lot to prove here. The Rockers really come out firing. The Moondogs are pretty imobile and don’t add to much to the match outside of the brawling. Michaels and Jannetty can throw with the best of them and really bring everything they’ve got. The end sees a huge dropkick from Jannetty leading to a crucifix by Michaels on Rex for the 3-count! The Rockers move on but who will they face? {The fans are solidly behind the Rockers and they work the fans while we get our introductions for the next tag team match} The New Breed vs The Nasty Boys A little bit better match than the previous. The New Breed have a cult following… more of the males but females seem to like them as well. The Nasty Boys are bringing the brawling once again and the New Breed don’t seem to have an answer The Nasties also double team every chance they get which turns the tide to their advantage.

Here comes Race, the biggest name in WCPW but also a man with something to prove. He walks into the ring knowing that every chance he gets in the ring could be his last…} Harley Race vs Buddy Landel This one is a good 12-minute contest full of psychology Landel works the fans and makes them seeth to see him get what is coming to him. Race looks to be winded around the 10-minute mark but he continues to fight on. Landel is working the neck and back and setting up Race Harley then finds that something extra and hammers away with rights and lefts and now Race is in control Idol makes his way down to the ring and he is trying to get Harley’s attention Race, the consignment pro, doesn’t pay mind to Idol Race acts like he’s going for the piledriver but Landel with a backdrop!

We then get a very special interview…} Joe Pedicino: Fans, I want to welcome in a very special talent… with his valet Precious… Jimmy Garvin! {Garvin comes out to a lukewarm reception} Joe Pedicino: Mr. Garvin, thank you for joining us here tonight and officially signing with Windy City Pro Wrestling. Jimmy: Hold it there Pedichino… I was told I would get the pomp and circumstance… I was told there’d be champaign and a limo. Hell I had to rent my own car… and there were used beer cans in the back. Listen pally… I am big time brother… I am the highest priced talent that WCPW could ever want and when I step into that ring I get paid… but when you see this beautiful face… I get paid twice as much you know what I am saying. Joe Pedicino: I can only apologize about… Jimmy: Don’t say sorry about nothing… fix it man. You know I have been a champion everywhere I’ve went. I have held title after title. These people know that Jimmy Garvin means champion and for all the guys in the back… listen up and listen up good… I am what they call the gold standard… you ain’t a champion until you beat me and I ain’t been beat yet! {The crowd then pops and Garvin thinks it is for him… but it is actually Gentlemen Chris Adams!

Idol can’t believe it, he argues with the referee, Taylor is in a bad way Idol continues to gloat but when he picks up Taylor, he reverses to a small package for a 2 count.

Idol goes for a right hand but Race ducks and nails one of his own and Idol goes flying over the top to the floor! Race stands tall as he helps up Taylor… we’ll see you in two weeks in Rockford!}

I like the way you have this show put together. It is easy to read to right to the point. Pillman.. in 87... all the potential in the world. Eddie is in the same boat. These guys could be real foundations. I awesome love Big Bubba... I've said it before... he may be the guy who I am pulling for the most in this world of wrestling. I really like the format of the 2/3 Falls match. The draw is always an interesting finish... what is the next match that these two can have to have a winner? Lastly, no dq, six-man tag. Pure chaos. The big man Texas Red, he's got to fight against the odds in the future. You've got some really good stuff going here in PCW. I like the real mix of talent that you've got.

The Dream and the Nature Boy... watch out 1987... I am also a huge fan of Duggan here with the Road Warriors. I only wonder if he'll paint his face like them as well? Big Daddy Ritter... well... he and Wild Bill have a wild one. I may have to do some learning on Steve Wright... I am not too familiar with him. I will put over your loops. Realistic towns. Awesome cards. Tully Blanchard on top... I love it.

I am a pretty big fan of Dick Slater and I always want to see him get things going. I always think that he could be a top tier Greg Valentine type. I am looking forward to the Big Brawl event. Lots on the line and plenty of drama going into it. There are plenty of matches to build intrigue which helps look forward to all the different things that could happen on the show.

I am enjoying the Hot Stuff Inc pieces. I always loved them in UWF and what a way to kick off some young stars. I like Brad Armstrong here and he is getting a good win against Muta. Brad had the talent and here you're giving him the time to develop. Demo vs Mira Vio is a dream match in any era. Here... these guys would all be young and in shape and I would agree that there'd be some potatoes left and right. I am a bigger fan of Lawler now than I ever have been. I see him as a real top 5 all timer. He can change the scope of a promotion and his return spells trouble for anyone in his way.

Sounds good. I want to make room for him down the line. I agree on his value.
