Great fall out show from the Omni. Bob Armstrong is back! The Andersons better be ready for a fight. Norvell looks impressive. I think big things are in store for him. Speaking of big things, Yoko is making waves in Georgia as Siva Afi plans on taking him all the way. The Devil's Duo have changed their ways. Who would of thought. Looking forward to Heaven's Angels. The Iceman is here but Duggan spoils his debut by sending a message to Reed. Cant wait for the battle of the Hacksaws! Long Riders with a dominating win and warn the Fantastics that next time they meet they wont be so lucky. Rich is back on the Superstation and everything is right in the world. Will Hart earn his trust? Things get intense and as Gordon said very disturbing as Angelo slaps his son and tells his henchmen to finish the job. Poffo has some strong back up with Rich and Dibiase. This is going to get bloody. Andersons end the show with some strong words for the Armstrongs. Man, these feuds are going to pack the houses!

Welcome back Edger! Good use of a house show to get talent established. Of course Sullivan would have Abdullah and Lewin as cohorts. What a monster stable! Bill White wins the battle royal and is crowned champ! Good seeing a vet like White get a solid push here. Thanks for the Putski showcase. He's been down on his luck in TNT and this win might have given him his confidence back. Outstanding main event as Valentine gets one over on Steamboat. Watch out Greg because now you have Orndorff coming after you.

Oh man things are at a boiling point as we get closer to the next ESPN supershow! The match between Hart and Savage is made! Who will walk out with the title? Or I should say, who will simply walk out??? Young Lions tournament gets a wildcard as Nikita is now involved! Lol like Uncle Nikolai. Lawler seems to be confident heading into his match with Hogan and makes some subtle warnings. Hogan gets attacked by Ox Baker! When I was a kid, Ox Baker scared me lol. After watching this I would of been terrified for Hogan. Can Hogan survive Baker to get to Lawler? Maybe Hogan can call Snake Plissken for back up LOL. Road Warriors and Sheiks get good squashes as they head towards their explosive collision. I'm looking forward to that heavy hitting power match! Dynamite and Davey Boy are getting really good buzz in the AWA. YES! Stomper and Brown in a loser leaves town cage match! It's the only solution for this feud. You're doing an awesome job building towards the ESPN supershow.

Another good show from SECW. My man Cooley keeps on winning. Like that Olympia/Hamilton impromptu pairing but somebody is going to have to watch out for Miss Brenda. Dynamite keeps his impressive title reign going by beating veteran light heavyweight Bill Ash. Rat Patrol might have earned themselves a title match with the Midnight Express. Whoa man what a title match but the after math was shocking as Brody goes crazy on Flair! Flair might be out for a long time putting his title in jeopardy. Crazy main event. Brody is on such a rampage that I don't think anyone can stop him.

TNT @ The Nashville State Fairgrounds 3-8-84 The cameras will be rolling for tonight's big card. 'Quick Draw' Rick McGraw vs. Scott Ferris McGraw announced he was gunning for the AWA Light Heavyweight title so tonight he tunes up against the rough and credible Ferris.

Winner of the match- Rick McGraw 'Blond Bomber' Kerry Brown w/Johnny Valiant vs. 'New Generation' Johnny Wilhoit A couple weeks back Brown body slammed Wilhoit on the concrete following Wilhoit's debut.

They fight to the outside and all around the ring for another couple minutes until security comes out to break the brawl up. Winners of the match- The Guerreros Billy Robinson vs. Jumbo Tsuruta w/Stan Stasiak Robinson and Tsuruta were clicking as a team but Stasiak somehow got in the ear of Tsuruta and here we are.

Tsuruta hops on the middle rope and crashes down with a big knee drop 1..2..3! Stasiak runs in the ring, gives Billy a stomp and raises Tsuruta's arm as the fans boo. This angers Tsuruta so he picks up Billy and executes a bridging Release Belly to Back suplex for good measure. Winner of the match- Jumbo Tsuruta Harley Race vs. Hercules Ayala Race jumps Ayala at the bell and proceeds to work him over.

Winner and still TV Champ- Tully Blanchard Intermission Soul Patrol/Cocoa Samoa vs. Decimation w/Stan Stasiak and Phil Hickerson w/Johnny Valiant Pretty crazy 6 man tag action as numerous feuds are involved here. Both managers cause quite the distraction until the Ref bans both of them from the match! Soul Patrol and Cocoa use their speed and high moveset to keep their opponents off track.

Winners of the match- Cocoa Samoa and the Soul Patrol 'Exotic' Adrian Street w/Miss Linda vs. 'Hangman' Bobby Jaggers This one has some heat as Street stole Jagger's bullrope a few weeks ago and used it to beat Jaggers up.

The Fabulous Ones vs. Bob Sweetan and Dave Shultz This one's been brewing for a long time and the fans have been waiting for the pay off. Sweetan and Shultz are in the cage taunting the fans.

Keirn grabs Sweetan by his hair and rams him into the cage, busting him open. Lane grabs Shultz by his hair and does the same. Shultz is now busted open. The Ref gets some order as the Fabs control.

Winners of the match- The Fabulous Ones

Fun spot shows. Bret Wayne and Jessie Barr should make some solid mid card faces. Larry Hamilton had some good title defenses. Mr. Olympia had a bittersweet week as he gets a solid win over Boyd to retain but takes a beating from Brody while subbing for JYD. Brody is on a rampage! Cooley is rising fast and I like it. Fuller and Golden get the best of Fire and Flame but Fire and Flame get their heat back with a win over Rat Patrol. Superstar Graham gets a huge win over Ron Fuller, keeping him in title contention. And of course the Midnight Express retain. Yes!

Really great storylines on the current Pacific Wrestling TV show. Texas Red seems to be a star on the horizon. Flowers continues to impress with a win over LaFleur but LeFleur is creating some good buzz. Excellent interview segment with Rose and all the families gaining up on Larry Z. Just how far will Larry go to get that ring off Piper and get back in the good graces of the families??? Looking forward to seeing if Strong Machine can match up with Nord. Man, Hansen goes wild and gets suspended!! That was crazy! I wonder if Anthony will be looking for some new back up. LOL, poor Larry couldn't get the job done as Piper escapes with the ring. Rose didn't look to pleased. Fun card at the LA Sports Arena. It's so awesome seeing the East West Connection in the tag ranks. Vachon bounces back from his Bundy loss with a solid win over Goldie. Strong Machine gets a good win over Gama as he prepares for his showdown with Nord. California Cowboys retain with help from the Zambuie Express. Looks like they aren't finished with RnR after all. That Dynamite/Cobra match might of been the show stealing match of the night! I'm sure they went all out for those 20 minutes. Great match! Once again Larry comes up short and takes the fall. That might of been the last straw for Rose LOL.

The following wrestlers are on TNT's trade block, Billy Robinson Phil Hickerson Cocoa Samoa Bob Sweetan Koko Ware Sweet Brown Sugar

Action at the Rosemont! I like the slow build of Jannetty as he gears up for the Young Lions tournament. Wrestling 2 and Mutoh come up short against Hot Stuff and Garvin, thanks to Precious. However, Mutoh looks good. Wahoo and Jules get a good win. I like that Wahoo finished the match strong. I'm sure the fans at the Rosemont loved the Crusher match. Fun 6 man tag as the Harts defeat Commonwealth. The Harts needed this win. Rude looks pretty good against Martel along with Heenan's constant interference. Hennig helps even up the odds and Martel takes it. If they decide to go their separate ways, I think Martel could become a serious world title contender. Hennig could also start being built as a mid card title contender. Wild main event! The crowd went home unhappy but this was the right call. Savage and Bad News need to keep their momentum right now and the loss doesn't hurt Bret.

Simpson and Doll defiantly fit the name Glamour Boys. We'll see if they can climb the ranks of a very stacked tag division. California Cowboys impress with a tough title defense. I really like the Orton/Brooks pairing here. Garvin goes off on Rogers and puts him down! Garvin could really do some damage here. I enjoy Nord's squash matches. Who is this new mask man coming after Wakamatsu?? Texas Red will defiantly get some seasoning hanging around Hansen and Anthony. They lose tonight but Red seemed to look good. Spoiler helps Adonis get the win but I'm sure Baron will be looking to put the claw on Spoiler. Oakland gets a fun card. Bundy is on a roll and defeats the legend Vachon. Big win for Bundy. Like that Dynamite/Starr match. Dynamite has really become a top champ in the AWA. Cowboys and RnR would of been a money match for me. With a draw I'm hoping for more. Billy gets a decisive win over rival Anthony. Of course there was going to be shenanigans in the main event. Larry Z better watch out because Piper will be gunning for him!

Cooley continues his streak with a win over Ronald Reagan's favorite wrestler. Good to see Hamilton bounce back from his loss to Dynamite. WOW! Rogers title reign was short lived as Mr. Olympia beats him. I was always a fan of Olympia so I'm looking forward to his run here. Dynamite continues his impressive reign with a solid win over White Lightning. With everything going on in SECW, the Midnight Express are having a pretty good run with the titles. Fuller/Golden-Fire and Flame go to a wild countout. This feud is far from over. Wild main event as Brody gets the fall on champ Flair. Great set up to their inevitable title match which will be money!

The Omni card was pretty damn great! Mean Mike retains by C.O. in brutal fashion over Pistol Pez. Pez put up some fights on the loop but Mike still hold the title. Mike has really been impressive. Looks like Jake might of put an end to his feud with Koloff as he gets the decisive win via DDT! Oh man! Bob Armstrong is here! Cant wait for some Armstrongs/Andersons wars. Fantastics take advantage of Orndorff and Santana no showing and pull off an upset over champs the Long Riders. I knew something good would happen in the Dibiase/Sammartino match as Tommy Rich comes home! Looks like Hart is going to have to earn Tommy's trust. That Reed/Sawyer match must of been a brutal 30 minutes. Lawler retains but catches a beating until Lanny saves the day. Lanny is getting some good exposure here. You really made the most of the AWA champ on the loop. Nice job.

The Olympians gets a solid win over Tio and Tapu as they look to get a tag title shot. Young Scott Hall continues to impress with a win over veteran heel Timbs. Like the twist with Siva as a manager. Man does he bring in some muscle as Yoko debuts and totally squashes Lightfoot! Great job with all the promos, you have really captured the Georgia feel. The tag division is stacked as the Fantastics are rising quick. Buzz Sawyer is a maniac but Reed seems more than ready for him. I've been very interested in the Dibiase storyline especially with his alliance with Gary Hart. His match with Sammartino will be intriguing. Ok, I'm really digging Mean Mike as the TV champ. I'm loving his matches and submission wins. I was a big fan IRL of Pistol Pez at this time so I'm looking forward to their showdown. Fun TV main event with all sorts of intrigue. AWA champ Lawler takes advantage of the distractions and puts down Poffo. Cant wait to see what happens in the Lawler/Superstar title match. Superstars on the Superstation continues to be a must watch (read)

Man oh Man! SECW is coming out blazing! Paul Jones makes the blockbuster announcement of acquiring the Superstar. Then he goes on to challenge Flair to a fight. After all that Flair accepts only to be beaten down by Bruiser Brody! What a great angle! Flair could be in serious trouble with both Graham and Brody chasing him. Your main event scene went to a whole new level. Good job in setting up the matches for the Expo Hall. Like the mid card feud going on between the Rat Patrol and Sonny King's stable. Mr. Olympia secures himself a Alabama title shot. Big upset as Miss Britton helps Rip Rogers win the Alabama title. Dynamite Kid gets an impressive title defense over US Jr champ Hamilton. Fire and Flame better be ready for Fuller and Golden because they're going to be wanting some serious payback. Flair retains with a DQ win but Jones sent a message and reminded Flair just how dangerous his men are. However, it looks like Flair has some big guns backing him up with JYD and Ron Fuller. Great action this week!

Oh Yea! Savage means business as he now has a very dangerous alliance with the returning Bad News Allen! This is bad news for the AWA. Marty gets a good showcase and is put over by Wrestling 2 heading into the Young Lions tournament. The ESPN Supershow is heating up as Lawler WILL defend against Hulk Hogan! Will Hulkamania run wild again? Also the Sheiks have a tough defense ahead as they face the Road Warriors! Now that Dynamite is with Commonwealth, it's going to be hard getting that title off him. Commonwealth/Harts is going to be a wild one. Looking forward to seeing what's in store for Ciclon Negro as he arrives in All-Star. With the great build, the next ESPN show will be a MUST SEE!!!!

Fun loop! Good to see Wendell Cooley getting a nice push and even winning a battle royal. The Rat Pack! Good memories. Like seeing them at the top of the card. Cant get enough of the Fullers/Midnight matches. Tim Horner takes champ Hamilton to the limit. These guys could put on some show stealing matches. Looks like the Jacques/Rogers feud will continue. And, Flair gets his first title defense over Tommy Gilbert.

TNT Wrestling TV @ The Junction, San Antonio TX, 3-1-84 Show starts off with footage from last week as Tully Blanchard defeated Tommy Rich for the TNT TV Title. Stack: Hello everybody and welcome to another edition of TNT wrestling right here on the USA Network. Earlier this week Jerry Jarrett announced the upcoming card at the Nashville State Fairgrounds on March 8th. The huge main event will be inside a steel cage as the Fabulous Ones will battle Bob Sweetan and Dave Shultz. Jerry Jarrett felt that for the safety of everyone here, neither team will be in the arena tonight. We will be talking about that big card throughout this show. As for tonight's show, the main event will be the Soul Patrol taking on Stan Stasiak's team, Decimation. Big night ahead, so let's go to the ring. 'Mr. USA' Tony Atlas vs. Todd Rooney Atlas tunes up for his upcoming TNT title match as he scoop slams Rooney and follows with an elbow drop. Atlas military presses Rooney over his head, slams him down and hits a big splash for the pin! The fans cheer as Atlas heads to the podium. Stack: Tony, on March 8th, you get a huge opportunity as you get a shot at the TNT title. I'm sure the fans would love to hear your thoughts. Atlas: Steve, I cant tell you how excited I am to.... The fans boo as Nick Bockwinkel comes out in a sweat suit and his TNT title draped over his shoulder. Bock: I'm sorry to interrupt but I just have some things to say. Mr. Atlas, no doubt you are a well proportioned individual and an above average athlete but you are about to be in the ring with the most premier wrestling champion in the world. Quite frankly I'm stunned that the suits in the TNT offices have deemed you the number one contender. You are nowhere near my level and it will be a shame to waste the money of the paying fans who are hoping for a solid and competitive wrestling match. With you in the ring, well, that just wont happen. Atlas: Mr. Bockwinkel, you have a pretty way with words. I'll tell you what, if you think this will be so easy why don't we give the fans here a preview and get in that ring right now! Atlas pushes Bockwinkel and storms in the ring, telling him to come on! Bock's face is red with anger, then he takes a moment. Bock: A man of my intelligence will not be lured into childish games by a non deserving contender like Atlas. This title stays with me, right where it belongs. The fans boo as Bock strolls out. Commercial Break Sheepherders vs. Gary Williams and Roy Sanders Sheepherders recently made their surprise debut when they defeated the Guerreros. Tonight they show the fans why they have such a brutal reputation. They just maul and beat down their opponents until they finally finish Williams off with a double rib breaker for the pin! Sheepherders cut a promo on the Guerreros and say the Guerreros are making excuses and that on March 8th they're going to send the Guerreros back to where they came from! Stack shows highlights from last week as Johnny Valiant led out Kerry Brown to attack the debuting Johnny Wilhoit. Brown ends up body slamming Wilhoit on the concrete. Stack: Ok, please welcome out New Generation Johnny Wilhoit. Johnny, how you feeling? Johnny: Still a little banged up but I'm here to say on March 8th, I'll be more than ready for Kerry Brown and if Johnny Valiant wants to interfere, well I would love to punch him right in the mouth! They spoiled my TNT debut but in the end, I'm going to show these fans why I represent the new generation by defeating that coward Kerry Brown! Commercial Break 'Exotic' Adrian Street w/Miss Linda vs. Vic Dutro Last week Street stole Bobby Jaggers bullrope and choked him with it. Street skips around with the bullrope around his neck. Linda is admiring this. During the match, Linda gets her slaps in and Street pretty much plays with his opponent the entire match before finishing him off with a Hot Shot on the top rope! Linda hands the bullrope to Street and he has his fun with it. The crowd explodes as Bobby Jaggers hits the ring and just pounds away on Street! Linda gets out of the ring quick. Jaggers grabs HIS bullrope and starts hitting Street with it as Linda screams. Officials run in as Jaggers just keeps hitting Street. Jaggers is finally backed up as Street rolls around and screams in pain. Commercial Break Stack: Things have certainly escalated between Adrian Street and Bobby Jaggers. Those two will meet on March 8th. Speaking of that card. The newly crowned TV champ, Tully Blanchard will be defending that title against Tommy Rich, in a street fight. Joining me now is the champ himself, Tully Blanchard. Tully: Take a good look Stack! (Holds up title) Who's holding this title? That's right! Me! I did exactly what I said I was going to do and here I am holding the TV title. Now, Tommy Rich is whining and crying about a rematch. Rich! In Nashville, not only will I retain this title but I get to end you in a street fight. Get ready for the whipp'n of your life boy! Hercules Ayala vs. Terry Gibbs This is Ayala's first appearance since his brutal taped fist match with Austin Idol. Ayala wanted a tough opponent to get him back on track because on March 8th, he faces Harley Race. Ayala body slams Gibbs then executes a back breaker. Ayala picks Gibbs up and clamps on a bearhug. He rams Gibbs into the turnbuckles, keeps the hold locked and really wrenches it on as Gibbs submits! Ayala cuts a promo and says he's back and moving on. He says a win over Harley Race would put him back in title contention. Commercial Break Billy Robinson vs. Dave Wiley This is Billy's return since the shocking turn of Jumbo Tsuruta. Billy looks crisp as he blasts Wiley with several European Uppercuts. Billy executes a double underhook suplex then follows with a swinging neckbreaker for the pin! The fans cheer as Billy heads to the podium. Stack: Billy, I think everybody was shocked when Jumbo turned on you and then joined up with Stan Stasiak. I cant imagine what you're going through. Billy: You know Steve, Jumbo and I had talked about and planned our goals here in TNT. We arrived and we were rolling. We both wanted tag team gold but somehow Stan Stasiak got in his ear and Jumbo threw it all away. Stasiak, you called me washed up and said I was holding Jumbo back. Well, on March 8th I'm going to remind you and Jumbo just who your dealing with. 'Quick Draw' Rick McGraw vs. Scott Ferris Fun match up here as both men look pretty good tonight. Ferris gets in some impressive spots before McGraw takes over with a series of hip tosses and drop kicks. McGraw back drops Ferris then swings off the ropes and hits a flying body press for the pin! McGraw heads to the podium. Stack asks him where his partner Ivan Putski is. McGraw: This is hard to talk about and I assure you, Ivan will address everybody in the near future. After our tornado match loss to Ratamyus and Cuban Assassin, Ivan fell into a depression. He's doing better but just needs some more time. In the meantime, he made me promise him I would continue to excel in the ring. I'm going to keep my promise and announce right now, I'm going after the AWA Light Heavyweight Championship! Commercial Break Tommy 'Wildfire' Rich vs. Kyle Harris Rich is aggressive tonight as he punches away on Harris, swings him to the ropes and hits the Thesz Press for the quick victory! Rich cuts a passionate promo and vows he's going to get his TV title back and also beat Tully Blanchard within an inch of his life in Nashville! 'Universal Heartthrob' Austin Idol vs. Ryan Ward Like Ayala, Idol is returning to the ring after that taped fist match. Idol puts Ward down with a back elbow smash, follows with a shin breaker then clamps on the Las Vegas Leglock to get the submission victory! The fans boo as Idol winks and flexes at them. He then heads to the podium. Stack says on March 8th, Idol will face Terry Funk and the winner will get a TNT title shot. Idol: Let me tell you something baby, after giving Hercules Ayala the beating of his life, the Universal Heartthrob finally gets some recognition. There's no doubt about it baby, I'm the one who's getting that title shot! Terry Funk might be wild and crazy but I've already proven, he cant handle what I got! Commercial Break AWA Southern Tag Champs The Nightmares w/Jimmy Hart vs. Neil Jones and Trent Knight Jimmy Hart has his champs in ruthless mode as they prepare to meet Ratamyus and Cuban Assassin on March 8th. The Nightmares hurl Jones over the top rope. Davis gets on the top rope. Wayne hits a shoulder breaker on Knight and Davis crashes down on the shoulder with a knee drop to get the pin! Hart hands his boys the titles and raises their arms as the crowd boos. All of a sudden Ratamyus and Cuban come out. They storm around the ring. Cuban picks up Jones (hurled out of the ring earlier by the Nightmares) and Ratamyus grabs a wooden chair and bashes it over his head! Cuban then hurls Jones into the ring as he lays unconscious in front of a shocked Jimmy Hart. But the Nightmares stare down at Ratamyus and Cuban. They pick up their other opponent (Knight) and knock him out with their title belts! They pick up Knight and hurl him out in front of Ratamyus and Cuban. Security run out to prevent an all out war. Commercial Break Harley Race vs. Barry Kincaid Harley body slams Barry and follows with a diving headbutt. Race picks up Barry and piledrives him down to get the pin! The fans boo as Race storms to the podium. Race: Ayala! You come out here and say getting a win over me puts you back in contention. Who in the hell do you think you are?! I'm Harley Race! I'm a multi time world champion! On March 8th, I'm the one getting my hand raised! I'm the one who's getting back in contention! I'm the one who's going to put you down! Stack: Wow, a very angry and determined Harley Race. Before we get to our main event, please welcome out Cocoa Samoa. Cocoa, it appeared that Miss Linda had paid off Johnny Valiant and Phil Hickerson to do some dirty work and cost you your match with Street. Cocoa: Not a good investment! Hickerson! On March 8th, once I get my hands around that fat neck of yours, you're going to realize there's no amount of money that will be worth the beating I give you! You might have some big bad partners teaming with you but so do I. The Soul Patrol have my back brother! Commercial Break Main Event The Soul Patrol vs. Decimation w/Stan Stasiak Good TV main event as Soul Patrol uses their quickness and high flying offense while Decimation shows off their power and ruthlessness. Shaw swings Ware to the turnbuckles and follows with a running clothesline then tags in Colley. Colley scoop slams Ware then hops on the middle ropes and crashes down with a knee drop 1..2..Sugar breaks it. Later, Soul Patrol get control as they swing Colley to the ropes and hit a double back drop, Colley staggers up and Soul Patrol put him down with a double drop kick. Shaw runs in and all four men are fighting! In all the chaos, Johnny Valiant and Phil Hickerson come to the ring but Cocoa Samoa sprints out and attacks Hickerson and hammers away on him! The Ref is distracted by this and is looking out. Stasiak gets on the apron with a foreign object. Shaw swings Sugar to the ropes, when Sugar is about to swing off, Stasiak hits him on the back of the head! Sugar staggers into a powerbomb by Shaw! Ware and Colley are fighting in the corner. The Ref runs over and counts 1..2..3!!! Cocoa and Hickerson are still fighting on the outside as Decimation steals this one. Steve Stack hypes up the March 8th Nashville Card. Stack talks about the main event cage match and talks about the bitter TNT history between the two teams. The show ends with a special music video that highlights the Fabulous Ones/Bob Sweetan-Dave Shultz violent feud. That feud culminates inside a steel cage on March 8th.

Another great loop. I love all these different match ups. Reed, Long Riders and Mean Mike continue to take on a variety of challengers. Looks like Jake finally got that satisfying win over Koloff. Like the teaming of Norvell and Pez. Adias is picking up some momentum. Liked that Dibiase/Orndorff-Superstar/Sammartino match.

Adias kicks off the show and establishes himself as a fan favorite. Dibiase and the fans are shocked at the actions of David Sammartino. I like seeing David as a heel. Original approach and this is what makes fantasy so much fun. Koloff has a good showing and strong words for Jake as they get ready to collide at the Omni. Love Reed as National champ. He's ready for all comers. His match with Sawyer will be a wild one. Poffo and Superstar talk for David which really puts him over more as a heel. His new aggression shows as he almost puts Michaels out permanently. Thank goodness for Dibiase. Very interested in the Dibiase, Hart alliance. LOL, Armstrong pulls one over on the Andersons as they slip on a banana peel and drop one to Thornton and Hall. Great TV moment! The Andersons will be looking for some payback. Cant wait for the Omni show.

All is right as Ric Flair walks away with the gold! Great storylines and intrigue involved as Paul Jones along with Fire and Flame caused all sorts of problems. Jones made a list of enemies tonight with JYD, the Fullers and Flair! Also interested in seeing the follow up between Flair and Fuller. Got to give a shout out to Jacques for his good performance. Love seeing the Midnight Express holding the tag titles. They will have some good bouts with the Fullers and Armstrongs. I'm also interested in watching Larry Hamilton defend the Jr. title. He got a solid win over Ash. Then you have some good young guns with Cooley, Johnny Rich and Tommy Gilbert. And we cant forget Sonny King and his dangerous stable. SECW is off and running!

TNT Announcement Jerry Jarrett has announced that at the upcoming card on March 8th at the Nashville State Fairgrounds, the Fabulous Ones will face Bob Sweetan and Dave Shultz inside a steel cage!!! Jarrett feels this is the only solution for this feud. On that note he also announces Tully Blanchard will defend the TV title against Tommy Rich in a street fight. Jarrett also announces other matches. TNT Title Bout Nick Bockwinkel (C) vs. 'Mr. USA' Tony Atlas STEEL CAGE MATCH! The Fabulous Ones vs. Dave Shultz and Bob Sweetan TV Title Bout- Street Fight! Tully Blanchard (C) vs. Tommy 'Wildfire' Rich AWA Southern Tag Team Title Bout Nightmares (C) w/Jimmy Hart vs. Ratamyus and Cuban Assassin Terry Funk vs. 'Universal Heartthrob' Austin Idol- Winner gets a TNT title shot Harley Race vs. Hercules Ayala Exotic Adrian Street w/Miss Linda vs. 'Hangman' Bobby Jaggers Cocoa Samoa/Soul Patrol vs. Phil Hickerson w/Johnny V and Decimation w/Stan Stasiak Guererros vs. Sheepherders Jumbo Tsuruta w/Stan Stasiak vs. Billy Robinson 'New Generation' Johnny Wilhoit vs. 'Blond Bomber' Kerry Brown w/Johnny Valiant Rolling Thunder will also be in action

Great to have SECW part of the AWA! Big announcement as a tournament will be held to crown a new SECW champion. Cooley starts the show off with a bang. He'll defiantly be a fan favorite here. It does seem strange seeing Flair without a title. I don't think that will last long. The big question is will he stay true to his word and be a changed man. Not if Paul Jones has any say. Very intriguing storyline We get a feud right off the bat with Jacques and Rogers as Rogers steals his title. Sonny King has himself a very dangerous stable but JYD and friends are up for the challenge. Black Bart gets a good squash. Fun main event as the Midnight Express get one over on the Armstrongs. Solid first show Gene. Cant wait for more!

TNT would like to pick up Larry Hennig to fill the void left by Bruiser Brody.

TNT Wrestling TV @ Roane Fieldhouse, Memphis TN 2-22-84 Show kicks off with a highlight package of the big card in Louisville last week. Tommy Rich retained the TV title over Tully Blanchard. Nightmares retained the AWA Southern tag titles with questionable means over the Soul Patrol. Jerry Lawler retained the AWA World title in a hard fought victory over TNT Champ Nick Bockwinkel. Lance Russell: Hello everybody and welcome to another edition of TNT Wrestling from Memphis. You all saw the fall out from Louisville and we have a lot to address tonight. Listen to these matches set for tonight. The Fabulous Ones will clash with Bob Sweetan and Dave Shultz! Lot's of bad blood there. Also, in a rematch, Tommy Rich will defend the TNT TV title against Tully Blanchard. If Tully loses, he must go to the back of the line. Let's get to the ring for a TNT wrestling debut. 'New Generation' Johnny Wilhoit vs. Vic Dutro Johnny Impresses the crowd with his high octane offense. He swings Dutro to the ropes and hits a high dropkick to get the pin! The fans cheer as Johnny pumps his fists to them and smiles. The fans boo as Johnny Valiant leads Kerry Brown to the ring. Brown nails Johnny from behind with a clothesline! Brown then picks up Johnny and hurls him out of the ring. Brown goes to the outside and body slams Johnny on the concrete! Commercial Break Lance: Ok we're back and I'm here with Johnny Valiant and Kerry Brown. Gentleman just what was the meaning of that attack on Johnny Wilhoit? Valiant: First things first Lance. Let me introduce you to my newest client, the Blond Bomber Kerry Brown. There was no way a punk like that Wilhoit kid was going to upstage my introduction of Kerry Brown. Kerry Brown is the newest sensation in TNT and everybody here better deal with it, especially you Wilhoit! Lance: He's something else, I'm sure Johnny Wilhoit will be gunning for the Blond Bomber. Back to the ring. 'Mr. USA' Tony Atlas vs. William Hillman Atlas looks like a million bucks tonight as he overpowers his opponent. Atlas headbutts Dutro, military presses him and slams him down! Atlas hits a big splash and gets the pin! Lance: Big win for Tony Atlas. I have a huge announcement. On March 9th at the Nashville State Fairgrounds, Nick Bockwinkel will defend his TNT title against Tony Atlas. Please welcome out the TNT champ Nick Bockwinkel. Nick has his arms folded and is looking down at the ground while Lance reminds him of his recent defeat to Jerry Lawler. Nick pause then looks up. Nick: Mr. Russell, I am a champion and I do not dwell on the past. A great champion like myself moves forward and that's exactly what I'm going to do when I defeat Tony Atlas in Nashville. You all can rest assured that Nick Bockwinkel will not skip a beat. Tony Atlas, you're in for a pure wrestling lesson my friend and you will know why I am the holder of this title. Simply put, Atlas is nowhere near my status. 'Hangman' Bobby Jaggers vs. Clint Cooper Jaggers puts Cooper down with a back elbow smash off the ropes. He picks Cooper up and drops him with the Hangman's Neckbreaker to get the pin! While he's celebrating with the crowd, Adrian Street and Miss Linda come out. Street grabs Jaggers bull rope and starts to play with it while Linda goes around and distracts Jaggers. Jaggers looks down at Linda and is a bit confused by her being out here. WHAM! Street nails Jaggers with the bullrope from behind! Street uses the bullrope to pound away on Jaggers. Street then chokes Jaggers with the rope then tosses him over the top rope and continues choking him while Linda slaps him! Officials come out as they go to a commercial break. Commercial Break Lance: Oh my I have no idea what that was about. Jaggers had to be helped out and taken to the back. Street and Linda come to the podium. Street is still playing with the bull rope. Street: EMMMMM, I like this new little toy. Bobby boy got himself a lucky win over the Exotic One a few weeks ago. What I did was settle my little score. Bye bye Bobby and don't worry (Holds up the rope) I'll take good care of this. Lance: That was just bizarre. Guerreros vs. Gary Williams and Todd Rooney The end comes when Mando swings Rooney to the ropes and back drops him then tags in Chavo. Chavo gets on the top rope and executes a sunset flip for the pin! The Guerreros cut a promo about their recent loss to the debuting Sheepherders. They admit they were thrown off by the surprise but vow that wont happen the next time they meet. Phil Hickerson w/Johnny Valiant vs. Mike Sampson Hickerson just destroys Sampson with stomps, kicks and face stretches. Hickerson body slams Sampson several times then drops a big elbow for the pin! At the podium, Lance is set to interview Valiant and Hickerson when Miss Linda walks out and hands Valiant a briefcase. Linda thanks them for a job well done in Louisville. Valiant shakes her hand and tells her Cocoa Samoa will never bother her or Street again. Commercial Break The Fabulous Ones vs. Bob Sweetan and Dave Shultz This all started when Shultz and Sweetan attacked the Fabs and executed piledrivers on the concrete, injuring them and forcing them to vacate the AWA Southern tag titles. Fabs came back weeks later and costed Sweetan and Shultz a championship opportunity by blasting them with chairs. The bell rings and all four men are brawling! They brawl through the ropes and around the ring. Of course the match ends in a double countout. The bell continues to ring but both teams continue to brawl. The viewers get a good show as the brawl lasts a few minutes before several wrestlers from the back come out to try and break it up. Lance: Man oh man that was quite a brawl. I hope that situation gets resolved soon. Well the tag team division here is red hot and a lot of teams are in contention for a shot at these guys. Please welcome out Jimmy Hart and his champions, the Nightmares. Jimmy and the Nightmares cut a promo and laugh about all the teams beating each other up while they remain at the top. Hart says the Nightmares are going to remain on top for a long time baby! Commercial Break Lance goes over the shock of Jumbo Tsuruta turning on his partner Billy Robinson in Louisville and joining up with Stan Stasiak. Stasiak, Jumbo and Decimation join Lance at the podium. Lance asks him why? Stasiak: I'll tell you why! Jumbo Tsuruta is wrestling royalty in Japan. He should be a world champion. That washed up Billy Robinson was doing nothing but holding him back. I'm here to make sure Jumbo Tsuruta gets the respect he deserves. Mark my words Russell, Jumbo Tsuruta will be a champion within a very short time. As for my team Decimation, it looks like nobody wants to face them and I cant blame them. Terry Funk vs. Terry Gibbs The battle of the Terrys tonight and Funk proves to be the better Terry tonight. Funk punches away on Gibbs then executes a Russian Legsweep. Funk works over the leg then applies the Spinning toe hold for the submission victory. Funk cuts a passionate promo and says he's ready to go after some gold. Commercial Break Lance shows footage of Austin Idol's taped fist victory over Hercules Ayala in Louisville. Lance says both men were in the hospital for a few days and are now resting at their homes. Lance says that was one of the most brutal and exhausting fights he had ever seen. Lance mentions next week the Sheepherders will be in action as well as Harley Race and the Soul Patrol. Lance also mentions Jerry Lawler will be away for awhile as he's set to defend the AWA World Title against a slew of contenders across the AWA. Ratamyus and Cuban Assassin vs. The Gladiators Ratamyus and Cuban Assassin are fresh off their big tornado match win over Rolling Thunder in Louisville. They beat down their masked opponents. Cuban hurls one of the Gladiators out of the ring. They double body slam the other Gladiator. Cuban hits a backbreaker and Ratamyus comes off the middle rope with a knee drop to get the pin! On their way out Cuban picks up the fallen Gladiator and holds him while Ratamyus shatters a wooden chair over his head!! The fans boo as Cuban and Ratamyus give them sinister smiles. These guys are out of control! Commercial Break TNT TV Title Bout Tommy 'Wildfire' Rich vs. Tully Blanchard Well this feud has been going on for awhile now. Tully claims he was cheated by the Ref in their Louisville match. Rich, being the fighting champion he is, said he would defend against Tully, here on TV. Jerry Jarrett says this will be Tully's last shot for a very long time if he doesn't win. Fast paced back and forth during the first few minutes. Rich gets some momentum, swings Tully to the ropes and puts him down with a bionic elbow smash. Rich hops on the middle ropes and crashes down with a forearm drop 1..2..Kick Out. Rich swings Tully to the ropes and back drops him. Tully staggers up and Rich grabs him and swings him into the turnbuckles and follows with a charging knee to the mid section. Rich hip tosses Tully over then flips over him while executing a neck snap. Rich drops an elbow 1..2..Tully gets his foot on the rope. Rich is in disbelief as the Ref is pointing to Tully's foot. Rich picks Tully up and starts to swing him to the ropes but the Ref gets caught between them and gets sandwiched and goes down. Rich is looking down at the Ref. Tully staggers to his knees then crawls over and low blows Rich! Tully regroups then hoists Rich up and executes the Sling Shot Suplex! The Ref crawls over and counts 1..2..3!!!! Tully Blanchard has won the TV title!!!! The show ends as Tully snatches the title out of the Ref's hands and holds it up high as the fans boo.

All-star wrestling continues to roll. Savage makes an impressive official TV debut and serves notice. Konga and Rude are rewarded with a shot at the title. Things get tense between Verne and Stu as the three way is announced. Mutoh makes a big splash with a solid win and he gets the best of a confrontation with Hot Stuff. Mutoh could really shine in the Young Lions tournament. Lawler stirs things up with Hogan and says he's at the back of the title shot line. Lawler has a tough schedule ahead and better stay focused. The tag team division is stacked! The Sheiks have a lot of contenders vying for a title shot. Stomper and Bad News are heading for an explosive encounter. The time is almost here! Great card in Calgary. I like this Wrestling 2/Mutoh alliance. They should give Hot Stuff Inc some trouble. Murdoch and Wahoo continue their hard hitting feud with neither man gaining the win. WOW! Dynamite goes heel and aligns with Commonwealth. The birth of the Bulldogs. Road Warriors solidify themselves as number one contenders with a win over Martel and Hennig. Where do Martel and Hennig go from here? Dynamite gets a solid defense over a Hart in Calgary. Bret lets the Calgary fans leave on a high note by winning a hard fought triple threat match.
