I have no problem with either.

I cannot guarantee the safety of Apollo but have no problem throwing him in the battle royal.

I have this tour already completed for both promotions and most of the 2nd tour. Ask me in October

NEW JAPAN ON ASAHI July 29, 1983 TV (Taped on 7/20, Asahikawa) Opening Montage The announcers discuss today’s card and begin with highlights of Kimura and Teranishi interacting in tag matches and six man. Today they will have a singles confrontation. Next, we see clips of the feud Abdullah has been having with Dick Murdoch. They cut to the breakup of Kimura and Hamaguchi as a tag team as Animal turns his back on his old tag team partner and joins Riki Choshu and company. Next we see highlights of the Choshu-Fujinami feud from the 7/18 and 7/15 TV shows. Kengo Kimura vs. Isamu Teranishi Kimura catches Teranishi off guard and nails a lightning lariat for a quick 2 count. Teranishi bails outside and regroups, trying to knock the cobwebs out. Back inside, Kimura attacks and nails Teranishi with his patented flurry of punches and Teranishi goes down. Kimura tries to lift Teranishi into a Cloverleaf submission but Teranishi keeps fending him off. However, Kimura is eventually able to hook in the move and turn Teranishi over. After screaming in pain, Teranishi eventually reaches the ropes and breaks the hold. The referee forces Kimura t back off and when he goes back to attack, Teranishi whips Kimura to the ropes and hits a back body drop. With Kimura down, Teranishi mounts him and fights to hook an armbar. The battle for the armbar continues and Teranishi eventually hooks it but Kimura gets to the ropes. Teranishi continues the punishment with sumo slaps and mounts a sleeper. It looks like Kimura is out but he fights back, shoots Teranishi into the ropes, leap frog, drop down, and another Lightning Leg Lariat. Kimura picks him up and is able to nail a piledriver. Kimura gathers energy from the crowd and as Teranishi stands and stumbles; Kimura catches him around the waist and rolls him up with the O’Connor Roll for the three. Teranishi tries to attack Kimura after the bell but Kimura bails out of the ring and celebrates his victory as he heads to the back. WINNER: Kengo Kimura in 9:32 with the O’Connor Roll +++ Abdullah the Butcher vs. Yoshiaki Fujiwara Fujiwara is accompanied by Captain Redneck Dick Murdoch. It looks like Abdullah and Murdoch are going to fight but the referee comes between them and escorts Murdoch out. This allows Abby to grab his fork and attack Fujiwara with the weapon. The bell rings and Fujiwara is already covered in blood. Abby viciously attacks the forehead. Fujiwara staggers and Abby is relentless. Whenever he gets a chance, he grabs the fork and keeps the blood flowing. On the outside, Murdoch grabs a chair and threatens to hit Abby with the chair. The referee is distracted with Murdoch and Fujiwara is able to pull a fork out of his trunks and he stabs Abby! The crowd expresses their approval and both men are now covered in blood. Abdullah tries to counter with a headbutt but that awakens Fujiwara and Fujiwara counters with 5 headbutts of his own. Abby stumbles and falls to the ropes. As the referee pushes Fujiwara back, Murdoch hits Abby with the chair and Abby falls to the mat. Fujiwara jumps on Abby for the pin but he kicks out. Both men are a bloody mess but as they get up, Fujiwara jumps on Abby’s back and hooks on a sleeper. It appears Abby is fading but in a move of desperation, he falls backward and crushes Fujiwara under his weight. As Fujiwara lies motionless on the mat, Abby stands up and drops the Big Elbow for the pin. Before Abby can get up, Murdoch jumps in and starts beating Abby with the chair. Abby somehow rolls out of the ring and starts throwing chairs into the ring. Murdoch checks on Fujiwara as Abby makes his way to the back WINNER: Abdullah the Butcher in 11:12 with the Big Elbow +++ Rusher Kimura vs. Animal Hamaguchi after a piledriver The last match between the two was a bloody brawl where Kimura’s hatred for Hamaguchi cost him the match since he didn’t stay focused. Isamu Teranishi is on the outside. This time, both men still remembering the taste of their own blood cautiously approach the other. A tie-up results in a forearm to the mouth from Animal. Kimura responds with a hard slap and both men abandon their game plan and they begin to brawl. After several minutes of wild brawling in and around the ring, Hamaguchi gets his bell rung by a chair. Inside the ring, Kimura hooks on a headlock. After some struggling, Animal responds with an atomic drop but Kimura doesn’t release the headlock. Hamaguchi tries to send Kimura to the ropes but Kimura maintains control. Hamaguchi, still desperate, rams Kimura into the referee. Teranishi gets on the apron but Kimura whips Animal into him sending Teranishi crashing to the floor. Hamaguchi turns around and is immediately hooked between the legs of Kimura. One piledriver later and Kimura gets the pin. WINNER: Rusher Kimura in 10:11 after a Piledriver +++ Riki Choshu © vs. Tatsumi Fujinami - WWF International Heavyweight Title Match Fujinami was disqualified in the first match on the tour and then Akira Maeda cost his team a victory in the tag match two weeks ago. Now, Fujinami and Choshu go at it again. The rest of Ishin-Gundan has been banned from ringside. Choshu rushes Fujinami in the corner as he takes off his jacket and pounds on him in the corner. Choshu attempts a Running Lariat but Fujinami throws his jacket at Choshu and hits him with a dropkick. Choshu to the outside to regroup. Back inside, Fujinami now attacks Choshu as he re-enters the ring and hooks on a Dragon Sleeper. Choshu panics and flails away trying to find a rope for his leg to reach. Fujinami is forced to break and he breaks at the four count. Fujinami continues to assault Choshu and executes a suplex, a backbreaker and a bodyslam in successive order to set up the Scorpion. Choshu blocks the Sharpshooter and even manages to slap Fujinami. Fujinami stomps repeatedly to the gut and goes for the Scorpion again. After a long struggle, he turns Choshu over and it looks like he has the match won. However, Choshu mounts a comeback and is able to break the hold by reaching the ropes. Fujinami thinks he has the match won but Choshu nails him behind with a high knee. Fujinami goes outside the ropes and turns around right as Choshu nails him with the Lariat. Fujinami flies off the apron and Choshu goes outside to follow. Choshu winds up for another Lariat but Fujinami ducks and dropkicks him into the guardrail. Fujinami charges and they both tumble over the rail. They fight near the rail and Choshu finally nails the lariat sending Fujinami over the top right as the referee calls for the bell. Fujinami is helpless and Choshu calls for his minions to come out and lay in the attack. Fujinami is bleeding from the mouth and helpless on the floor. Rusher Kimura and Kengo Kimura rush out and drive Ishin-Gundan away and eventually help Fujinami to the back.

I nominate Carlos Colon

LOVE IT!!!!

Big thumbs up to everyone who has helped out so far!!! Thanks to those who volunteered talent and who I begged for talent!!! Still waiting for a few more confirmations. I will also need some lower level midcarders / JTTS at some point for a 20 man battle royal to complete the show. Basically guys who you could see winning the battle royal but would not shock you at all if they were thrown over. Thanks!!!!

Jumbo Tsuruta Genichiro Tenryu - Will be available for television, house shows and major events. No jobs, televised or not. Must approve all tag team partners and opponents. Ashura Hara & Mighty Inoue - Current All Asia tag champions. Will be available for television, house shows and major events as a tag team. No televised jobs. Shiro Koshinaka Takashi Ishikawa Akio Sato Umanoseke Ueda Great Kojika Ultra Seven - The following are available for house shows, television and special events. Jobs approved at the discretion of guest promotion Masaji Goto Hiromichi Fuyuki - Young lions available for all events. Jobs approved but All Japan requests that they work with veteran talent who can help further their training

From your roster, Flair & Gordy were also firmly All Japan.

Rheingans is loyal to Baba. Inoki will happily welcome Tonga Kid to represent the Pacific Island of Tonga.

Saito will be involved with an Ishin Gundan multi man tag. I will have a solid match for Ron Starr.

I am thinking a WWF International heavyweight Title Match between Backlund and Fujinami. I wouldn't job Andre.

I love the response in 5 minutes to this! Remember, you don't have to just send wrestlers, you can send matchups!!!

Hah! David gets sent to the other company anyway.

On January 4th, 1984 New Japan will host its first Super Show.... NJPW Battle Invasion Global Attack Wrestling Dream!!! January 4, 1984 NJPWバトル 侵略グローバル攻撃レスリング ドリーム！ The current foreign wrestlers signed up are... The Cobra - Stampede Davey Boy Smith - Stampede Dynamite Kid - Stampede Bret Hart - Stampede Bad News Allen – World Class Dusty Rhodes - Florida Buddy Rose – Pacific Northwest / All Star Black Tiger - England Abdullah the Butcher Yoshiaki Yatsu These wrestlers will already be on tour for the big show. I am looking to make this a 6 hour extravaganza celebrating world peace and cooperation among nations. If you want to host a match on the show, you can send 2 to 4 wrestlers for the big show and tell me the finish and title you want on the line. If you want to send a wrestler or tag team to be featured against Japanese talent, that would also be appreciated. No need to rush but I want the final card finalized for promotion by the beginning of December.

NWA World Backyward Garbage Heavyweight TItle

I agree with that in principle but maybe we need to come up with a new rule in the Game Station where we build a rule honoring deals up to a certain point. If you have a 6 month agreement, I don't think a new guy should have to alter 6 months of planning. However, maybe up to a month or two.

Updated confirmed agreements so far!

Central States is being absorbed. My point is that before you threaten to quit, contact Jhawk and work something out. I have known him for over a decade. He's a really nice guy. If somebody is being a real dick to you and your booking, if it deals with an NWA affiliated title, that is an NWA issue and could be solved through people who A) happen to be mods here (Me, Grimmas, Kris) or B} through the fun NWA Board of Directors who would probably agree with you if you laid out a solid argument on why you need certain talent. In other words, try sweetness first instead of sour.

I would hit the piss break and concessions for that Darsow match. I would say cigarette break but I could probably just smoke on the arena floor back then.

I am going to delete the other Mid South thread and this will be the official and only Mid South thread.

I would keep both as faces for a long time with the current roster. Until Ricky Morton is ready to strike out on his own in a year or two.

I like your card recaps better than the Netcop stuff. I think the Netcop stuff tonally fits better in the Spectator than as a show review. Kudos for attempting something different though.
