Grimmas

I have the main events planned out for the Maple Leaf Gardens shows for the rest of the year, plus the main ideas planned out till July 1st. Booking shows comes easy to just hint what is coming and hype future stuff.

I didn't realize how long that main would take until I worked it out.

High on it for an Angle match

Exactly. 90 is alright, but 88 is a great ass match that everybody should watch. The announcers miss sooo much, as does the camera man, but there is a lot of depth if you watch closely. Thank you. It was weeks of re-watch to come up with that.

I just did a project where I watched most of the SummerSlam matches and ranked them myself. Boy is my list different. Sadly your number one didn't make my top forty. 1. Daniel Bryan vs John Cena (2013) 2. Brock Lesnar vs CM Punk (2013) 3. Razor Ramon vs Shawn Michaels (1995) 4. Bret Hart vs Davey Boy Smith (1992) 5. Kurt Angle vs Steve Austin (2001) 6. Brock Lesnar vs John Cena (2014) 7. Eddie Guerrero vs Rey Mysterio (2005) 8. Batista vs John Cena (2008) 9. Alberto del Rio vs Christian (2013) 10. Bret Hart vs Mr. Perfect (1991) 11. CM Punk vs John Cena (2011) 12. Dean Ambrose vs Seth Rollins (2014) 13. Bret Hart vs Owen Hart (1994) 14. Demolition vs Hart Foundation (1988) 15. Ultimate Warrior vs Rick Rude (1989) 16. Kurt Angle vs Rey Mysterio (2002) 17. Ric Flair vs Mick Foley (2006) 18. Bret Hart vs Doink, vs Jerry Lawler (1993) 19. Bret Hart vs Undertaker (1997) 20. John Cena vs Chris Jericho (2005) 21. Brock Lesnar vs The Rock (2002) 22. Rey Mysterio vs Dolph Ziggler (2009) 23. Ultimate Warrior vs Randy Savage (1992) 24. Brain Busters vs Hart Foundation (1989) 25. Triple H vs The Rock (1998) 26. Owen Hart vs Steve Austin (1997) 27. X-Pac vs Tajiri (2001) 28. Mark Henry vs Sheamus (2011) 29. Edge & Christian vs Dudley Boyz vs Hardy Boyz (2001) 30. Randy Orton vs Christian (2011) 31. Ken Shamrock vs Owen Hart (1998) 32. Mankind vs Undertaker (1996) 33. CM Punk vs Jeff Hardy (2009) 34. Rick Martel & Rougeau Brothers vs Tito Santana & Rockers (1989) 35. X-Pac vs Jeff Jarrett (1998) 36. Hulk Hogan vs Earthquake (1990) 37. Steiner Brothers vs Heavenly Bodies (1993) 38. Hakushi vs 1-2-3 Kid (1995) 39. CM Punk vs JBL (2008) 40.

Hockey is going to take a big chunk out of my time too. Luckily Leafs tickets are hard to get, so I can't go to every game, but watching TV is big commitment.

http://placetobenation.com/this-week-in-wrestling-for-august-15-2015/ Pete, Steven and Johnny are back to talk This Week in Wrestling for August 15, 2015! This weeks episode is dedicated to Azurae Schmidt, may she rest in peace. In the first fall (3:28) we talk Stevens NWA Classics match of the week as we look at Little Coco vs Little Tokyo! We run down this weeks NXT TV including an awesome Becky Lynch vs Bayley match and then preview NXT live in Brooklyn the day before SummerSlam. We end the fall with a look at ROH TV and a preview of this weekends EVOLVE shows (47 & 48). The second fall (1:18:43) goes international as we run down the disastrous AAA TripleMania 23 and NJPWs G-1 Climax tournament. We end the show with the third and final fall (1:49:15) looking at the WWE. First we take a look at two WWE Network specials in Table for 3 with Mean Gene, Paul Orndorff and Roddy Piper and then the Brock Lesnar vs Undertaker special. We finish the show breaking down Raw. Our apologies for the sound quality during fall 1 and 3, but we had to record some of the show on location. We will try to limit this going forward.

Final week of hype for SummerSlam. Let's have at it.

Winner - Invader 3 @ 6:27 3. Dave Kochen vs. Goldie Rogers Rogers got angry after several Kochen punches to the face and started cheating and viciously choking Kochen.

Winner - Dave Kochen @ 9:02 4.

Terry "Bam Bam" Gordy & "Nature Boy" Ric Flair vs "Big" Stephen Petipas & Rocky Johnson After a nice shine sequence by Rocky, we get Petipas in for a long face in peril. Gordy and Flair look great in control.

Gordy picks up the win with the powerslam. Winners - Terry Gordy & Ric Flair @ 14:04 Commercial #1 After the break we go to ringside with Billy Red Lyons and Jesse "The Body" Ventura. They look at the envelope which has Jack Tunney's name on it. It seems to have peso's sticking out of it and a Castro seal on the back. This must be the money to pay the find they incurred a few weeks back. They speculate that they might get another fine and wonder if Castro will be willing to pay their fines again. Ventura hypes asking Alexis Smirnoff difficult questions on The Body Shop tonight. He will find out where the relationship with The Russians and Don Carson is at. Finally the announcers hype the main event of New Japan superstar Riki Choshu taking on Jerry Brisco. We will be right back Dick Murdoch in action. Ventura scoffs at Murdoch. Commercial #2 2.

Winner - Tiger Jackson @ 5:54 Commercial #5 It's time for The Body Shop with Jesse Ventura. Ventura has his bodyguard the Masked Samurai watching his back. After a few moments where he hyped up Mr. Saito taking the NWA Canadian Title from Rick Martel at Maple Leaf Gardens on August 30th and Team Japan taking out Team Canada tomorrow night, Jesse brings out his guest Alexis Smirnoff. Smirnoff comes out to a mixed reaction. Ventura asks for Smirnoff's side of the story. Smirnoff talks about being the former NWA Georgia Tag Team Champions together and about how dominant they were. Together they were supposed to come into Toronto and take over Maple Leaf Gardens as the most dominant tag team upon returning from his tour with All Japan Pro-Wrestling. What happened though was when he returned Koloff had brought in Don Carson as his manager and was teaming and champions with the impostor Super Russian. Jesse questions whether he was kept in the dark about all of this. Smirnoff starts yelling about how he hates Carson and that the Super Russian is a fake Russian. He then talks about how he has no issues with Wahoo and invites him out. Jesse brings out Wahoo who looks reluctant. Smirnoff says he wants to destroy The Russians as much as Wahoo does. Smirnoff has heard about Wahoo needing a partner for Maple Leaf Gardens to take on the Super Russian and Koloff for the belts in a cage. He is offering his services. Wahoo says that he has found in a partner in Buzz Tyler, but if Smirnoff wants to be in their corner, he is welcome. Wahoo and Smirnoff shook hands as Jesse closed off the show.

Next week on TV we will see Andre the Giant wrestling, as well as Rick Martel on The Body Shop. Commercial #7 4.

I will take responsibility to starting the new thread every monday.

I've really missed this show and I am glad it was back. I think you are over hyping Russo, Matt. I am pretty sure any company with Austin and The Rock would had been huge. I tend to think that the WWE got huge despite Russo not because of him.

Lol. My results were original version..
