I am in agreement about the roster. Love the shows, Honky Tonk Man and the TV title reign is fun for me. I love Lawler, so watching him defend the USWA World Title here has been really fun read. Keep it up!

(A few minutes early, hope it's ok gentlemen! ) Mid Atlantic is dropping Sweet Daddy Siki, and welcoming Johnny Weaver onto the roster.

Mid Atlantic would like to release Chris Champion, and welcome to the roster Owen Hart.

Mid Atlantic would like add Steve Lombardi to the current jobber pack to complete that pack.

My neck of the woods here, and I love it. These house shows are awesome, really has that WWF 80s feel.

Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling Mayhem got a pretty good review from around the territory. Some were disappointed in the time limit draw for the main event, but with a talent like Bruiser Brody, its hard to get a real finish that everyone can agree on. Junkyard Dog is officially gone from MACW, as he finished up his last date on June 30th. Speaking of, The Rock 'n Roll Express are also gone from MACW as they finished up their 90-day run at Mayhem as well. Sources close to the office are saying that some roster shakeups are coming. We recently saw that Mr. Money unveiled himself to be Tully Blanchard when he became the NWA Television Champion. More guys will be leaving the territory and a few rather big names are on their way in soon. A real surprising name will be coming in around August, and this has the office excited and nervous on how to use him correctly with the time they have. Recently a conversation was had between the Crockett's and officials with the USWA, and it was agreed to let MACW start running shows in the Georgia area, specifically Atlanta and using The Omni. Crockett's are already promoting a big debut there on Monday, July 30th. The few days before that will be the debut in other areas of Georgia, starting with a TV taping on July 26th in Augusta. This is a huge gain for Mid Atlantic. This has had the office re-work the weekly touring schedule now. Each week the company will tour a state. With 4 states, and plenty of good towns to work, they have a 5-day touring schedule for each state. North Carolina has such a hot schedule, they may use 6 towns in the rotation. But the office is really happy with this development. The Omni goes perfectly with the Charlotte Coliseum, the Greensboro Coliseum, and the Scope as major venues. Word has it that MACW officials have signed a deal with a local video distributor to release limited edition VHS video cassettes for purchase through PWI Magazine of the Closed Circuit events. This is based on a lot of requests at local events to relive the experience live. MACW wasn't sold on the idea at first, but they are willing to spend a little money to see what comes of it. Speaking of Closed Circuit events, heels off the latest one presented by MACW, the announcement that the next one will be September 29th at the Richmond Coliseum. The company was excited to make this announcement as it means the closed circuit events are doing well. One each quarter is the goal going forward, which has worked well thus far. MACW is already looking ahead to Starrcade on Christmas Day from the Greensboro Coliseum. That will also be shown on Closed Circuit television, but as it is an NWA presentation, this will be shown all across the country. NWA officials have already sent out feelers and booking venues all over to show the huge Christmas day event. Magnum TA is set to be pushed heavily into the main event picture, as seen recently with his main event tag team matches last weekend. Tully and Barry aren't finished yet, as they will at least be programmed until the debut Atlanta show. Tully's push has been well received by the office. The fans hate him, which means they will pay money at the house shows to see him get his ass kicked. Barry Windham has been the rock of the MACW, wrestling every weekend, main event matches and having the fans behind him. They want to push him as a single's star, which had lead to questions of what will happen with Kendall going forward? Thus far, on TV he's disappeared, but on the house shows they have been teaming. The office likes the multiman main events, as it keeps angles going forward, but keeps everyone going in the right direction as well. That's all for this time, folks.

During the draft yesterday, I had made a mistake and said I was using my +1 for July during the draft, but that wasn't the case, as I had an open slot for a manager, and drafted JJ Dillon in that spot. So I should have my +1 available, which I would like to activate now. A jobber pack, starting with Jim Powers.

Tito Santana AND Ricky Steamboat as champions, then Patera as the World Champion. I love it. No more Hogan, but the roster looks fine without him. So many fun talents all around the card. Looking forward to the future.

Fun TV shows. I really enjoy the mix on the house shows as well. Really fun territory to follow. I love the use of such great names like Valentine, Steele, Rougeau's, Bravo. So many fun matches.

Memphis, you are all set for those July dates.

My roster is still a little off. So if you want to use this for the roster page, it'll be up to date as of end of draft Summer 1984. 38 wrestlers 3 managers 3 jobber packs Bam Bam Bigelow Barry Windham Bobby Fulton Butcher Vachon Chris Champion Kendall Windham Lanny Poffo Mad Dog Vachon Magnum TA Moondog Moretti Moondog Rex Moondog Spot Pedro Morales Pez Whatley Salvatore Bellomo Sam Houston Sivi Afi Sweet Daddy Siki Tommy Rogers Adrian Adonis Harley Race Hiro Saito Jay Strongbow Jules Strongbow Kamala Larry Zbyszko Len Dalton (Grappler #2) Mr. Fuji Pat Patterson Ray Stevens Ric Flair Rip Rogers Scott Casey Terry Taylor Tiger Chung Lee Tony Anthony (Grappler #1) Toru Tanaka Tully Blanchard James J Dillon Paul Jones Skandor Akbar Dennis Stamp, Dusty Wolfe, Frank Williams Italian Stallion, Jason Knight, Scrap Iron Scranton Scrap Iron Sheppard, Terry Gibbs, Tony DeVito

June 30, 1984 Charlotte, NC Charlotte Coliseum Mid Atlantic Mayhem Closed Circuit Event *The first three matches were not broadcast on the live Closed Circuit event. Those matches were taped for this week’s World Wide Wrestling...but I will post that info here as it will be easier to follow.* Bob Caudle: Welcome to World Wide Wrestling, I’m Bob Caudle, and joining me at ringside tonight is Tony Schiavone. We are here at Mid Atlantic Mayhem, taping this week’s episode of World Wide Wrestling! Tony Schiavone: That’s right Bob, and what a night we have in store. On today’s show, we will have the first three matches of this historic event. On this week’s episode, we will have Magnum TA against Rip Rogers. Bob: That’s not all, we will also have Bam Bam Bigelow against Adrian Adonis. Don’t forget about that big battle royal for $10,000! I see the contestant’s for the first contest are making their way ringside, so let’s take it up to the ring. Single’s Match One-Fall with a 15-Minute Time Limit Magnum TA vs Rip Rogers Magnum TA is an early crowd favorite. The match turns to Rogers way early after a poke to the eyes. Rip Rogers works over Magnum for a couple of minutes, but he can’t keep TA down. Magnum catches Rip with a knee lift to turn the tide. Moments later he executes that Belly-to-Belly Suplex to get the victory. Time: 7:14 Decision: Magnum TA COMMERCIAL BREAK Tony: Welcome back to World Wide Wrestling, upcoming we will have another single’s match, with the young rookie, Bam Bam Bigelow as he battles Adrian Adonis. These two had words recently on TV, and tonight they will battle inside the ring to settle their verbal war. Bob: And that begins very shortly, as Bam Bam Bigelow is in the ring. Adrian is walking to the ring now. Single’s Match One-Fall, 15-Minute Time Limit Bam Bam Bigelow vs Adrian Adonis The young star Bigelow starts off with a quick flurry to get the veteran off balance. Adonis bails to the floor. Bigelow follows him out but Adrian catches him and gets Bam Bam in trouble with a clothesline to the floor. Then he lifts him up and Bam Bam crashes against the guardrail. Adonis rolls Bigelow inside the ring, and now it is all Adonis. Adonis pounds away against Bigelow, using some nice strikes to the body. Adonis climbs up the to second rope and leaps with a crushing knee to the body for the three count. Time: 11:01 Decision: Adrian Adonis COMMERCIAL BREAK Bob: Fans, welcome back to World Wide Wrestling, live to tape from Mid Atlantic Mayhem! Bob Caudle and Tony Schiavone are here at ringside for our main event on this week’s episode. It is an Invitation-Only 20-Man Over-The-Top-Rope Battle Royal with the winner earning $10,000! Tony: The wrestler’s are currently making their way to the ring right now. Bob, who do you see being the favorite in this style of match? Bob: That’s a tough choice, Tony. The winner could be someone we would never expect. Tony: That could be true, Bob. How about someone like the devious Mr. Fuji, or a newcomer like Chris Champion? Bob: Maybe someone like Kendall Windham as well? Anything is possible in this kind of match Tony. And we are about to get underway here. 20-Man Over the Top Rope Battle Royal No-Time Limit Chris Champion, Mr. Fuji, Pez Whatley, Grappler #1, Grappler #2, Salvatore Bellomo, Kendall Windham, Pedro Morales, Sweet Daddy Siki, Scott Casey, Lanny Poffo, Dennis Stamp, Dusty Wolfe, Frank Williams, Italian Stallion, Jason Knight, Scrap Iron Scranton, Scrap Iron Sheppard, Terry Gibbs & Tony DeVito The wrestlers begin immediately, just a brawl, as you would expect from a battle royal. Not much in the terms of anything special. Just a lot of punching, kicking, trying to get guys over the top rope. The jobber guys are the first ones gone, but this match goes for a while before the first elimination. But once the first guy is gone, all of sudden the ring clears out quickly. After about 15 minutes, we have left both Grappler’s, Mr. Fuji, Pedro Morales and Kendall Windham. Kendall takes down Fuji with a Bulldog, but before he could try to toss Fuji, the Grappler’s attacked him. Pedro comes over to make it a two on two affair. All four men just tossing fists in the middle of the ring. The Grappler’s stop and rake the eyes of their opponent’s. They try to throw Windham and Morales together, but they reverse it, the Grappler’s collide into each other. Windham and Morales toss them from the ring. It’s down to three. Mr. Fuji realizes this and begs off. Kendall and Pedro look at each other and then down to Fuji. Before they could capitalize, Fuji’s clan arrive at ringside and distract the two. Fuji pulls something from his tights. Windham and Morales keep the Clan at bay, as they turn around, Fuji blasts both of them with salt to the eyes. He quickly uses Kendall’s height against him and tosses him from the ring. Fuji’s clan then hit the ring and beat down Morales. They lift up Pedro and Fuji gets an assist in dumping him over the top rope to the floor to gain the victory. The fans are livid at the outcome, and the announcer’s are showing their displeasure as well as shock that Mr. Fuji outlasted the other 19 wrestlers, even with help from his clan. Time: 24:53 Decision: Mr. Fuji wins the battle royal. Bob: What a shocker! Mr. Fuji takes the battle royal this evening! Tony: We’ll have more on this situation next week! Bob: And we’ll have a full recap of tonight’s Mayhem event as well. Until then, see you folks next week right here on World Wide Wrestling! ******************************************************************************************************** The crew waits a few minutes before going live for the Mayhem show. The in-ring announcer runs down the rest of the card for tonight. The broadcast team stays at ringside ready to call the action. As we go live, the crowd starts to get loud. The Charlotte crowd is excited for the show. The announcer does the countdown to go live. Tony Schiavone: Welcome everyone to Mid Atlantic MAYHEM! We are LIVE on closed circuit all across the East Coast and Mid-Atlantic region. We have a huge show coming up for you fans this evening! Bob Caudle: What a show! It’s already been fun here in Charlotte, and you can see that action on World Wide Wrestling THIS week! But coming up in the next few hours, we have FIVE Championships on the line this evening! Tony: That’s right, and don’t forget about that Loser-Leaves-Town Steel Cage Match. That should settle a score, as well as that big time grudge tag team match that is scheduled for tonight’s card. Bob: Let’s not waste another minute, Tony. We will head backstage to David Crockett as he speaks with the competitors in our next match here at Mayhem! David Crockett: Welcome ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for joining us on this Saturday evening here in Charlotte, North Carolina. Up first, we have a big-time championship grudge match. As you might tell from behind me, we have a lot of security backstage tonight. We don’t want any of the action to happen back here, we want to see it all out in the ring. With that said, let me bring in Mr. Money. He doesn’t speak very often, but maybe I can get a few words. Mr. Money, any thoughts on your upcoming championships match against Television Champion, Barry Windham?! Mr. Money just looks into the camera, with a nice red and black rope, matching his newest mask. He motions for the championship around the waist and walks off the set. David: Well, I guess that’s an easy message to understand. His opponent, and champion is Barry Windham. Can we get a few words from you? Barry: David Crockett, you know this, and all of the fans of Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling knows this. This championship means everything to me. To me, it’s just as important as any other championship in wrestling. Maybe even MORE important, being it’s defended so often on television. I don’t know who this Mr. Money guy is, but he wants this belt. He’s sneaked attacked me a number of times. I know he is a vicious guy, but I have the title belt for a reason, and it means I’m pretty damn tough! I’m pretty damn talented as well, and tonight, he will learn that lesson the hard way. You can count on that! David: And let’s take it to the ring, Bob Caudle. Tony Schiavone. These two are headed your way. Bob: A very intense champion, Tony. Will that be what he needs to overcome this mysterious opponent? Or will Mr. Money be the man to take that championship away from Barry? Tony: Barry Windham looks extremely focused, Bob. Only time will tell, and as you can see by the entrance of the challenger, we are moments away from finding out those answers. Bob: What a cocky individual this Mr. Money is. When do you think he’ll ever reveal himself? Tony: If he has his choice? I don’t know that he will, Bob. NWA Television Championship Match One-Fall, Special 30-Minute Time Limit Challenger, Mr. Money vs Champion, Barry Windham They actually wait for the bell to ring before they attack, but as soon as the bell rings, they attack each other with fists, back and forth. Barry gets the early advantage, and Mr. Money bails to the floor. Barry quickly follows him and gets him on the ground and just starts to lay in some heavy right hands. Barry picks up the challenger and tosses him back into the ring, but Mr. Money uses that opportunity to kick Barry right in the head and take over the advantage. The crowd is hot for this match, as this has been hot on TV leading into this showdown. Mr. Money shows off his wrestling technique, to which the announcers speak highly of on commentary. They discuss who could be under the mask, how well he is doing inside the ring. Mr. Money keeps up the offense, laying in some stiff shots to the upper body / neck area of the champion. Barry tries to battle back, but Mr. Money is ready. A few more minutes of Mr Money working over the champion. The crowd is behind the champion, clearly chanting and clapping for him to get back into this one. Mr. Money does make a mistake, trying a second rope elbow smash, and missing to turn the tide. Barry gets back into the fight, a couple of hard right hands, a very beautiful looking leaping lariat only gets a two count for the champion. Barry looks out to the crowd for a moment and he drops Mr. Money with a big body slam. Barry is gaining more momentum with each passing second, and Mr. Money is back on the run. He gets caught with a big back body drop that sends Mr. Money to the mat hard, but he uses the momentum to roll out of the ring. Barry chases once more. Mr. Money rushes back into the ring, but Barry catches him by one leg and pulls him to the floor. Mr Money crashes to the concrete very hard. Barry grabs him and pulls him up, and you can tell through the mask they Mr. Money is bleeding. He grabs Barry’s trunks and in a move of desperation, pulls Barry over him and into the ring post. Earl Hebner, the official, warns them both of a countout and disqualification. Barry is hurt and bleeding now as well. Both men are back into the ring, and bloody. They stand up, facing off in the middle of the ring. Bloodied and exhausted. They punch it out, back and forth. After a number of solid shots, Mr. Money misses a shot, Barry dropkick’s Mr. Money into the turnbuckle. Barry finds a second or third wind. Mr. Money is begging off. Barry rushes into the corner and nails him with a solid back elbow shot. He wraps his arm around the head, and runs out of the corner for a bulldog. As he leaps, Mr. Money shoots him off in mid-air. Barry reaches out to try to keep his grip and grabs as the mask, pulling it almost off, but Mr. Money somehow keeps the mask on his head. Barry crashes hard to the mat. Mr. Money leaps down on top and just starts to choke him. Barry is able to push him off, so much so that Mr. Money falls out of the ring. Barry once again follows him out. Mr. Money has grabbed something from ringside, a wrench from under the ring and nails Barry with it out of the referee’s site. He pushes Barry into the ring. Barry is really hurt at this point. Mr. Money digs into his tights, and crawls back into the ring. He dives onto Barry, and the referee gets hit, not hard, but enough to get him to roll with away with his back to the action. Long enough for Mr. Money to use the foreign object, a taped pair of brass knuckles it appears, right between the eyes. Barry is out. Mr. Money hides the evidence and pins Barry to steal the championship away. Time: 19:35 Decision: Mr. Money wins the TV Title Barry is out cold. Earl Hebner awards Mr. Money with the title belt. He slowly climbs to his feet, as Kendall Windham arrives on the scene to argue with Earl about the knuckles, then helps an injured Barry from the ring. As Mr. Money looks on, holding his championship gold. He steps into the center of the ring, holding his belt high above him with one hand. He takes the other hand and slowly tugs on the mask, slowly pulling it off his bloody head…. Bob: What’s this, Tony? Is Mr. Money about to reveal himself here? Tony: Well, that’s what it looks like Bob…. Bob: What in the...That’s TULLY BLANCHARD! Are you kidding me!? Tony: I can’t believe it, Bob! What a turn of events here in our opening match. Tully Blanchard debuts under a mask….AND wins the NWA Television Championship! Bob: He is celebrating inside the ring, mask in hand, TV title in the other. His face that crimson mask. I don’t believe it. Tony: What a shocking evening we have had this far, Bob, and it’s only the first match. Wow. Bob: I don’t know what to say, as the new champion is returning to the locker room. We will take it back to David for words from the next match. David: Did I really just see that guys? Tully Blanchard is here in Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling? Up next is a tag team grudge match. I was supposed to be able to chat with all 4 in this match, but we understand that both teams went right to the ring. Let’s get back to Bob and Tony. Tony: That is correct David, both teams have entered the ring. Referee Tommy Young is calling for the opening bell already! Tag Team Grudge Match One-Fall with a 20-Minute Time Limit Mad Dog & Butcher Vachon vs Jules & “Chief” Jay Strongbow (w/ Skandor Akbar) A brawl to begin, all four men in the ring. Tommy Young is having a hard time getting the match under control. Skandor grabs Butcher’s leg in the chaos, and pulls him to the floor, allowing a double team by the Strongbow’s on Mad Dog. Butcher punches Akbar to the ground, and leans over him and lays in some stiff punches. Jules steps out to the apron. Butcher gets up onto the apron and goes into his corner. The Strongbow’s have complete control of the match. Akbar is helped to the back to the locker room. They are beating down Mad Dog viciously. Butcher rushes into the ring to break up the beat down. Kamala is coming to the ring with Akbar shouting instructions at him while holding his face. Kamala climbs into the ring and attacks both men causing the DQ. The Strongbow’s join in the 3 on 3 beatdown. Kamala gives both men the big splash before JYD appears. Kamala tries to attack him, but the Strongbow’s hold him back. Akbar demands they pull him to the locker room. JYD checks on the Vachon’s as he stares down Kamala. Time: 11:09 Decision: Mad Dog & Butcher Vachon via DQ for outside interference. The announcers take it back to David Crockett, but the camera focuses on what is going on in the ring. Both Vachon’s are being helped out of the ring. They are hurt, but they don’t seem to be injured badly. David moves the conversation to our next match, the NWA World Six-Man Tag Team Championships are on the line. Fuji’s Clan will challenge the Moondogs for those titles. David discusses both teams heading into this match. He sends it back to ringside for the title match. Bob: As David has just recapped for you, up next is the NWA World Six-Man Tag Team Title Match. Mr. Fuji and his clan of thugs have just made their way into the ring. The Moondogs, as you can hear from the chant of the crowd, are on their way now. Tony: The Moondogs rebounded pretty quickly with the addition of Moondog Moretti to their team and captured these titles in a shocking turn of events last month! They have been on a roll and look to retain the titles here this evening. Bob: Earl Hebner is ready to call for the bell, so we are underway here in Charlotte! NWA World Six-Man Tag Team Title Match One-Fall, 60-Minute Time Limit Challengers, Fuji’s Clan (Tiger Chung Lee, Hiro Saito & Toru Tanaka) w/ Mr. Fuji vs Champions, The Moondogs (Rex, Spot & Moretti) Fuji’s guys attack early. They get the more inexperienced Moretti in their side of the ring and begin to work him over. Each guy tagging in and out. They seem to have found an injured arm/shoulder, as that is the area they have controlled. Mr. Fuji is at ringside and is VERY impatient with his guys. He is screaming and yelling at them about pain and torture. This seems to get them distracted as Moretti leaps into his corner for a big tag to Spot. Spot rushes in and begins to take down each of the Clan. Spot knocks each guy down, big forearm shots and straight punches. Rex comes in as the numbers game picks up. Moretti joins the brawl as he recovers and all six men are battling inside the ring. Hebner is trying to maintain control, but isn’t having much luck. Fuji digs into his tights and pulls something out….climbs up on the apron. The referee paired off on the other side of the ring, and he tosses salt into the air, missing Spot and getting Tiger Chung Lee, Fuji gets a big shot to the head to drop him to the floor. Spot lands a knee to the chest and gets the victory to retain the titles. Moondogs leave the ring. Fuji and his men get into the ring and all four argue. Fuji just spits at them all and leaves them in the middle of ring. Time: 13:56 Decision: The Moondogs retain the titles. Bob: Some troubling issues with Mr. Fuji and his clan of warriors. Tony: Absolutely, Bob. Fuji just spat at his boys. What could that mean, exactly? Bob: With the devious mind that he has, I’m afraid to ask. Let’s take it back to David Crockett. David: Thank you, Bob. From one championship match to another, we have the United States Tag Team Titles on the line in our next match. The challengers are the very popular, young Rock ‘n Roll Express. Ricky and Robert. They challenge the veteran champions, Pat Patterson & Ray Stevens. The challenger’s are on their way to the ring right now, you can hear the crowd reaction. Paul Jones is here for one last statement before his team defends their gold. Paul Jones: Listen up, my boys are the champions. After the match, they will still be the champions. It’s that simple, do you understand, David Crockett? David: They will get that chance up next. Paul: Shut up. David: Back to ringside. NWA United States Tag Team Title Match One-Fall, 45-Minute Time Limit Challengers, The Rock ‘n Roll Express (Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson) vs Champions, Ray Stevens & Pat Patterson (w/ Paul Jones) This is a very fun tag team match. The young team of the Express use their quickness to keep the champions off balance during the early moments of the match. Patterson and Stevens both have trouble trying to keep the challengers at bay. A few minutes into the championship match, we see the veteran team finally get their opening and they use it to secure an advantage. Ricky misses a flying back elbow and Stevens keeps Ricky down. Patterson and Stevens begin to work over the young Ricky Morton. They tag in and out like a well oiled machine. Robert is pleading with the crowd to get behind Ricky, and they certainly do. The chants get louder and louder. The champions are good at blocking out the crowd. But the cheering gets loud. It finally gets to the champions as Patterson loses it for a moment yelling at the hot crowd. That moment gives Ricky the chance to roll across the ring quickly and make the tag to Robert, which sends the Charlotte crowd into a frenzy. They just explode. Robert takes down Patterson with a flying punch. Kicks Stevens off the apron. A flying head scissors to take down Patterson. Robert is on a roll. Paul Jones is over to help Stevens up. Robert knocks down Patterson again, but only gets a two count. Ricky is back on his feet, but it still hurting from the long beating he took just moments ago. Patterson is able to sneak over and make a tag to Stevens. Stevens enters the ring and Robert takes him down with a leaping head scissors. Paul Jones gets up on the apron for a moment, Ricky gets into the ring to get Jones down. Robert tries the head scissors again, but Patterson catches him and drops him throat-first over the top rope. Robert crashes hard to the mat. The referee gets Ricky out of the ring, turns around to see Stevens on to of Gibson for the three count. Time: 23:33 Decision: Ray Stevens & Pat Patterson retain their titles. Tony: What an incredible match for the US Tag Team Titles! Bob: An unfortunate ending, but you have to give it up to both teams. They battled for over 20 minutes, never stopping to claim those titles. Patterson & Stevens were the better team this evening. Tony: David Crockett, what do we have up next? David: Well Tony, Paul Jones’ other charge, Terry Taylor will challenge a championship he previously head earlier this year. Here comes Paul Jones back. Paul: I told you David Crockett, my boys don’t need to prove anything to you, but they do it anyways! Now, Terry Taylor, will regain HIS championship belt that was STOLEN from him months ago! He will also destroy that trader of a so-called friend Sam Houston. You will NOT walk out of Charlotte with Terry’s US Championship. David: That’s it from back here, Bob, Tony, back to you at ringside. Bob: Thank you, David. Paul Jones is quite confident his newest charge will be the two-time United States Champion after tonight’s event. Tony: Overconfident is more like it, Bob. Sam Houston has been on top of his game here in MACW this past 6-7 months, and winning the title from Randy Savage is quite the statement. This will be a grudge match, and I think that also is in Sam Houston’s favor. He has the technical style, but he can go toe-to-toe with the best as well. Bob: This is our next title match of the evening, the first of two more left on tonight’s Mayhem show. NWA United States Heavyweight Championship Match One-Fall, 45-Minute Time Limit Challenger, Terry Taylor (w/ Paul Jones) vs Champion, Sam Houston They stand nose-to-nose as the bell rings. Jaw-jacking leads to fists back and forth. Both men going back and forth. Just two former friends throwing fists. Eventually they tackle each other and roll around on the mat. Houston on top, Taylor turns him over and lays in a few good shots. They end up on the floor battling it out. Tommy Young ordering them back into the ring. He starts the count, as they battle back and forth. Tommy gets to an 8-count and both men stop and roll-back into the ring. Just so they can fight it out longer. Sam Houston gets control as he catches Taylor with a quick body slam. Houston starts to gain control of the match, but Paul Jones interferes enough to get Houston to chase him and Taylor gets a low blow behind the referee’s back to gain momentum in his favor. This is where Terry Taylor takes over. He just beats up Sam Houston. Terry begins to work him over with wrestling moves, showing that he is the BEST wrestler in the United States, as he keeps saying around the ring as he controls the current champion. Terry knocks him so hard in the head, Sam gets a cut above the eyebrow. Terry sees this and goes to work on it right away. Sam gets bloodier and bloodier. We are having somewhat of a replay of the earlier TV title match. The champion is a bloody mess as the challenger keeps pounding away on the cut. It’s getting vicious, straight right hands, elbows and a leaping knee to the head. Taylor only gets a two. He’s getting frustrated that he can’t get the win. Taylor controls the match a little more, and locks in a sleeper hold. The site looks awesome, Taylor locking in this sleeper, Sam bleeding badly. Terry is talking trash still, while trying to put him asleep. The announcers talk about how the blood loss and the sleeper, this could be a lot of trouble here. Sam looks to be out, and Tommy Young starts to look deep, checking it out. He raises the hand once, and it drops. Tommy raises the arm again and it drops. He lifts the arm once more and before anything could happen, Taylor lets the hold go and stands up, celebrating. Tommy Young questions him, as the match isn’t over. Taylor claims he’s the winner, and Tommy argues with that. Paul Jones hops on the apron complaining that the match should be over. Terry and Paul raise each others arms in victory. Sam Houston is slowly getting to his feet. Taylor sees this and rushes over to take him down, but Sam ducks, waist locks him, pushes him into Paul Jones, rolls him up and Young gets the three count! Time: 24:11 Decision: Still NWA US Champion, Sam Houston Tony: What a dumb move by the challenger! Terry Taylor let his ego get the better of him and he lost this match! Bob: I don’t understand why he didn’t just hold that sleep a second longer! Or even if he broke too early, he could have pinned the champion and win the title! Such a big mistake, that cost him the title tonight! Tony: Wow! I don’t even know what to say about that ending, maybe David Crockett can find the words. David…. David: Tony, I saw what you saw. I don’t have the words. Terry Taylor lost a golden opportunity there. While we take a moment to think about that. We will take a 10 minute intermission so we can construct the steel cage for our Loser-Leaves-Town Steel Cage match between Kamala, the Ugandan Headhunter against the very popular Junkyard Dog! INTERMISSION WHILE THEY CONSTRUCT THE STEEL CAGE Bob: Welcome back to Mayhem, live from Charlotte, North Carolina! I’m Bob Caudle, and my broadcast partner, Tony Schiavone. We are here for the last two matches of the evening. As you can tell, we have a steel cage match upcoming. They are putting the finishing touches on the cage. Tony: A Loser-Leaves-Town match here. The loser will leave Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling. Kamala has been battling Junkyard Dog for quite a long time now. Skandor Akbar wants JYD out of wrestling completely, but he’ll take him gone from MACW. Akbar has injured JYD in the past, and burned Sivi Afi many months ago. We haven’t seen Afi since! Bob: This scene before us is a very scary one. This steel cage is 10-feet tall, and just made for violence. We’ve seen blood and violence already tonight, but it’s going to push the envelope here. As Skandor Akbar brings his giant warrior to the cage. A caged Kamala is scary. Tony: He’s a caged animal for sure. Here comes Junkyard Dog. Loser-Leaves-Town Steel Cage Match One-Fall, No Time Limit Kamala (w/ Skandor Akbar) vs Junkyard Dog As soon as JYD steps into the cage we are underway. A brawl from the beginning. Kamala has some kind of bamboo stick he’s using as well as JYD’s dog chain. Kamala gets the early advantage because of JYD entering the cage second. Akbar is on the outside laughing at JYDs misfortune thus hard. Kamala has busted JYD open early. No wrestling here, just a lot of pounding. Chops, punches, kicks and weapons shots. Kamala likes this stick he has beating JYD with it. A rush into the corner that misses changes the momentum of the match. JYD starts beating Kamala with the chain, busting him open. JYD gets the control back and rams Kamala’s head into the cage. Both men are bloody. Akbar is livid at ringside as Kamala is on the edge of losing here. JYD tries for THUMP, but he doesn’t have the energy and Kamala falls on him. Akbar is digging into his pockets as Kamala is recovering. Kamala gets to his feet and lands a leaping splash. Akbar shouts instructions to Kamala. Kamala pushes Earl Hebner down to the mat. Akbar knocks out the referee outside the cage and climbs into the ring. Kamala splashes JYD again. Akbar has the materials for FIRE! He’s gonna burn JYD! Kamala is pulling JYD up, but the crowd reacts to someone coming down the aisle. It’s Sivi Afi! He’s got a patch over his face, under his eyes. He’s got a pipe of some kind as he climbs into the cage and chases Akbar around. Kamala pushes JYD down and chops Afi. JYD gets up and battles Kamala, Afi gets up and bashes JYD in the head with the pipe. The crowd just gasps! Afi looks down at JYD, Kamala puts himself on the second rope and leaps crashing with the big splash onto JYD. He gets the 1-2-3. Kamala has won the steel cage match with Sivi Afi’s help! They all kick at JYD, but are run off quickly by a number of the wrestlers showing up to help out. Afi hugs Akbar and Kamala walks off with him. They walk to an interview podium set up as David Crockett shows up and is brought over to them. Time: 14:42 Decision: Kamala David: Skandor Akbar, what the hell is this? Sivi Afi, what have you done?!? Sivi: What have I done?! I’ve gotten rid of the trash! That’s what I’ve done. JYD is trash! It is because of him that I was burned! Mr. Akbar only did what he had to do three months ago! I can see that now. Junkyard Dog said he would battle side by side with me, but where was he when I was attacked? Gone! He wasn’t around! He cost me three months of my career! Akbar: But don’t worry Sivi, you now have a new home, and a new brotherhood that will battle with you side by side. We will be your family and we will take care of our own. You past your test tonight. We didn’t get to burn that ugly dog, but he is gone from here FOREVER! And that is a promise I made, and you’ve made it come true. HAHAHA!!! David: This is sick! How could you?! David drops the mic and leaves the set. The three men are joined by The Strongbow’s and they all celebrate. We scan back to the ring, as the cage is being taken down, and JYD is being helped out of the ring. Tony: What a turn of events here, Bob. I can’t believe what I’ve seen. I feel like I’ve been saying that after every match tonight. Bob: We have, and for good reason Tony. This has been a night of grudge’s and we’re not done. We have one more match left, the main event. This will be for the top prize in the sport. The next match will be for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. While the ring crew finishes taking the cage down and JYD gets some medical advice, let’s watch the events that have led the challenger and champion to this championship collision course. A video recap of the events of the last couple of weeks of TV and a special one camera shot of the dark match from the last TV taping where Brody left Flair laying is shown. The steel cage is taken down and when we return to the live shot, we see Bruiser Brody in the ring pacing. THe World Champion has just entered the ringside area. He has the beautiful $15,000 robe on. He steps up to the apron and removes the robe. Flair enters the ring with the NWA title around his waist. They complete the introductions and Flair hands Tommy Young the title belt. We are ready for the main event of the evening. NWA World Heavyweight Championship Match One-Fall, 60-Minute Time Limit Challenger, Bruiser Brody vs NWA World Champion, Ric Flair The main event of Mayhem lives up to it’s name. Brody is as crazy as ever. Flair begs off at first, but once the action gets going, they don’t stop. The momentum goes back and forth. Both men at different points in the match almost get pinfalls on the other. Flair even gets a two count from a cross body block off the top rope. Brody eventually gets an extended control of the action. He takes it to Flair, even battling around ringside for a few moments. Brody gets Flair back into the ring, but can’t seem to put the Champion away. Flair finally gets to turn the momentum back his way. He starts in on the left leg of the challenger. Flair goes to town and works over the leg. Brody tries to get back to his feet, but Flair finds a way to get Brody back on the ground and working on the leg. Brody won’t give it up. Even when Flair locks in the Figure-Four Leglock, Brody won’t give it up. He eventually starts to get his second or third wind here and battles back. He’s limping badly, but he still gets some of those big power moves in. He tries for a piledriver, but Flair is able to escape. Flair walks into a boot to the face and sends him over the ropes. Flair gets back in and Brody leaps from the top rope with a leaping knee smash, he nails Flair. Brody is hurt with that move too. He tries to pin Flair, but the champion gets a shoulder up right before the final count. The ring bells goes off. Tommy Young checks in at ringside and it is decided they went to a 60-minute time limit draw. Time: 60:00 Decision: Time Limit Draw, Ric Flair retains the championship. All three announcers stand up at ringside and sign off from Charlotte. We see Flair holding up the championship as he leaves the ringside area as we fade to black.

Sorry, forgot to post this house show between my TV and Supercard. June 29, 1984 Ashville, NC Civic Center Bam Bam Bigelow, Pedro Morales & Pez Whatley defeated The Grappler’s & Rip Rogers in 9:20. Adrian Adonis defeated Lanny Poffo in 7:26. Mr. Fuji defeated Chris Champion in 5:12. The Moondogs defeated The Scrap Irons & Dennis Stamp in 4:52. Toru Tanaka, Hiro Saito & Tiger Chung Lee defeated Sweet Daddy Siki, Sivi Afi & Salvatore Bellomo

Yeah...They were my legit next pick, I'm not picking on Kevin. haha I promise.

OK, so not to make Kevin mad, but I was going to pick the NWA World Tag Team Champions, the Fantastics as my 4th round and 5th round picks.

Aren't I next, did I miss something?

Worked out for me also, as I hadn't used my +1.

Mid Atlantic would like to draft James J. Dillon for their second round choice. MACW would like to choose Larry Zbyszko for the opening of the third round.
