And here is Tommy Rich vs. Terry Lawler from a show I went to in 2010.

Check out the last show in my hometown.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pIYDjR-Lls

Main event of SD tapings tonight was Bryan/Rhodes Family vs. Shield so another great looking match.

And I forgot to put Phoenix in my AWA response but yeah 5 months isn't a long run

When I was a kid in the late 80's we would have shows in my hometown at the high school gym and the guy that promoted the show was a local guy named Wild Bill Smith who graduated from said high school. He would book guys from Deep South and Blackwell's Southern Championship Wrestling so we would get Tommy Rich, Chick Donovan, The Assassin, Mr. Wrestling II, Dick Slater, etc mixed in with a couple of other local guys. Wild Bill was a character though as he was always in the main event trying to make himself look like he was on the level of the bigger stars but he was as good as your standard TBS jobber. Wild Bill though would get his rocks off though by going to the Omni and making grandstand challenges from the seats to the wrestlers as they walked down the aisle. He actually slapped Nikita on the head one time and Nikita stomped him out. Wild Bill also ran in the ring one time the WWF was running the Omni and pulled down Nikolai Volkoff's trunks from behind. I guess he had something against Russians.

I got AWA running monthly shows from November 1983-March 1984 and that's it.

That was a fantastic main event segment right there

AWESOME

I wouldn't like to rank them but I could make a Top 50 list easily.

GENIUS

This definitely has potential

There is a pantheon of people that have reinvented themselves to stay relevant and successful Madonna U2 Sting David Bowie Those artists also are among the most talented ever in their craft. Miley was a creation to begin with and like other creations she will fade out.

HBK has now made his way into the angle as he will be the ref for Bryan/Orton HIAC

Yeah that is a travesty....imagine Bock teaming up with the Midnight Rockers

The thing about Madonna was she kept reinventing herself every couple of years and stayed relevant. Miley doesn't have Madonna's talent or business sense.

I wouldn't say that but Mania time......

No poll numbers get on TV without them wanting it to be the way they wanted. They learned from past mistakes. Plus Hogan's name has been uttered quite a bit on WWE TV lately.

Went with Bock here as he was on a high level for a long period of time having great high profile matches as well as his whole character in general being top notch. Buddy is fantastic but just not at Bock's level as an overall performer.

No they got what they wanted there because they put those guys there for a reason especially Sting

Not watching the show for various reasons but the finish seems to me that Show is being added to the feud and HIAC will be a 3-way

Let's also not forget back in the 80's promotions would claim 3,000 or more for Korakuen shows.

Back when I was talking to Stuart regularly he would always acknowledge the attendance claims were juiced but he was going to run with the NJPW numbers anyway. NOAH was the worst at making claims on shows though in that era, they would juice up houses sometimes 4,000 stronger

Boy that line about JCP being minor league before he got there is going to get some run.... Really good interview
