FW's Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling

[fredwilliamson]

So I've been playing Legends, and COTG, off and on for years. I've been playing this particular incarnation since January of 2010 and I'm pretty satisfied with what I've got going. I'll be posting, hopefully quickly, my shows from the very beginning. I like the idea of having a written history of I've done.

So - here at the beginning, I'm running TV and a house show every weekend. For some reason, I guess to get some build in, I only ran TV the first four weeks. After that, it's TV and a show every Friday night. Hope you guys enjoy it as much as I have.

Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling
Studio A at WRAL
Raleigh, NC
January 2nd, 2010
Hosted by Bob Caudle

This week on Championship Wrestling: Ox Baker, The Destroyer, Frank Gotch in a wrestling exhibition, Jimmy Snuka, Johnny Valentine & more!

Ox Baker b George South with a clothesline
- After his match, Baker joins Bob Caudle and issues an open challenge to anyone in the Mid-Atlantic territory with, “the guts to face the man with professional wrestling’s most dangerous move.” Caudle tells Baker he should be careful promoting his Heart Punch, that MACW President Jim Crockett, Sr. has strongly considered outlawing the move. Baker informs Caudle that the Heart Punch has already killed two men, and if Jim Crockett wants to be the third on the list, that’s fine by Ox.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Giant Baba promotional video showing the big man dominating his competition in Japan.

- The Destroyer b Sweet Brown Sugar (Koko Ware) with the FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK

- The Destroyer joins Caudle and demands to know why the promotion is showing videotape of Giant Baba when they have “The intelligent and sensational” Destroyer under contract. “I’ve traveled the world, I’ve pinned Baba in his home territory, and I’ve received no red carpet.” Caudle explains that Baba will be appearing in the Mid-Atlantic territory for a few weeks starting with the January 29th show at the Charlotte Coliseum, but The Destroyer is not interested in any explanation. He tells the audience that he will buy time on next week’s television and show the world the “videotape evidence” of him pinning Giant Baba in Japan.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- When we return Frank Gotch is in the ring with a “local amateur wrestling champion” and Caudle explains that Gotch will demonstrate the “fundamentals of his wrestling ability.” Gotch records two falls over the young man and Bob asks him to explain his technique to the crowd. However, Nick Bockwinkel makes his way into the ring and tells Caudle that, “It isn’t hard to beat up on some kid, but it’s another matter entirely to pin a world’s heavyweight champion.” When Gotch offers to spar with Bockwinkel, Nick accepts his challenge. The crowd is red hot for a pure wrestling contest between these world-class athletes. When the bell rings, Gotch moves toward Bockwinkel in a crouch. Nick kicks him in the gut, slaps him in the face and quickly makes his way out of the ring. Gotch is hunched over holding his stomach as we go into commercial break.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Back from the break Caudle admonishes Nick Bockwinkel for his “careless” actions, informing us that medical personnel are caring for Frank Gotch and his possible “ruptured appendix.”

- Jimmy Snuka b Larry Sharpe with the SUPERFLY LEAP.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Johnny Valentine b S.D. Jones with a flying kneedrop.

- Caudle tells us to join Championship Wrestling next week as Bobo Brazil, Buddy Rogers, and Gorgeous George with tag partner Buddy Rose will be in action. When Valentine hears Rogers’ name he joins Caudle and tells him to make sure that Buddy Rogers understands that this is Johnny Valentine’s territory. Caudle responds that Valentine can tell him himself next week, Valentine begins shouting, “this little studio can’t contain the hatred Rogers and I have for one another!”

- “We’ll see you next week fans, and until then, so long for now!”

Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling
Studio A at WRAL
Raleigh, NC
January 9th, 2010
Hosted by Bob Caudle

- Bob Caudle welcomes the television audience to another edition of Championship Wrestling and quickly runs down this week’s lineup. Johnny Rodz and George South are already in the ring, preparing for their match against Gorgeous George and Buddy Rose. However, Paul Ellering makes his way out to Caudle and grabs his microphone. He tells Caudle that he has brought the world’s most dominating force to Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling. Caudle, very frustrated, explains that we have a television format for a reason and guys cannot just take over the show whenever they please. Ellering says he can do as he pleases, because he has this duo at his command! “Iron Man” by Black Sabbath blares through Studio A and the Road Warriors come through the curtain. Ellering announces there’s been a change of plans, and the Road Warriors will take George and Rose’s spot in the opening match.

- The Road Warriors b George South & Johnny Rodz with a double clothesline

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- We return with VTR of the Warriors’ gruesome power moves on South and Rodz. While we watch the replay, Caudle pleas to Jim Crockett to reconsider allowing such a dangerous team in his promotion. The Destroyer is standing with Bob Caudle as the video concludes and is ready to deliver on his promise from last week. He says Jim Crockett has no appreciation for “one of the finest athletes in the world” and, while Baba gets free publicity, he has to pay $500 to put the footage we’re about see on television. The footage rolls and there is no pin fall, only Destroyer working a headlock Baba. Bob Caudle points out that there is no conclusive fall in the footage and Destroyer becomes irate, shouting that Caudle is blind and needs to adjust his glasses.

- King Kong Bundy b Sweet Brown Sugar with the AVALANCHE

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Bobo Brazil b Larry Sharpe

- Bobo joins Caudle and expresses concern over the Road Warriors. He says everyone here is just trying to make a living and that the Road Warriors are out to end careers. He finishes by saying that, if Jim Crockett refuses to do anything about the team, it will be in his hands.

- Nikita Breznikov, The Iron Sheik, and Nikolai Volkoff join Bob Caudle. Breznikov does his usual evil foreigner shtick and says that every tag team in MACW trembles at the sight of Volkoff and Sheik. Caudle tells Breznikov that he’s making a big claim in a territory that features the Road Warriors and Valiant Brothers and Breznikov spits on the floor and laughs. He then asks The Iron Sheik to demonstrate his superhuman strength and Sheik does his Persian club routine. While doing it, and Sheik does it into the hundreds, Breznikov yells that no other man in the world is capable of such a feat.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Bob Caudle announces that a man crazy enough to accept Ox Baker’s challenge for January 29th at the Charlotte Coliseum has been found and is quite an unorthodox character. The Sandman enters Studio A carrying a kendo stick and a Budweiser. He tells Caudle that he’s whipped men bigger than Ox Baker at karaoke night and won’t have a problem embarrassing Ox in Charlotte. Caudle asks Sandman if he’s intimidated by the heart punch and Sandman laughs at the suggestion.

- Buddy Rogers b Mike Jones with the FIGURE FOUR GRAPEVINE

- After the match, Rogers joins Caudle to discuss Johnny Valentine’s comments last week. He says that he and Valentine have waged war across the United States and that the Mid-Atlantic territory is the newest ground. He continues by saying that, while hasn’t won every battle, the war is most definitely being won by the Nature Boy. Johnny Valentine makes his way into the Studio and the men immediately begin exchanging blows. The locker room begins to empty and the two men have to be held apart by nearly the entire Mid-Atlantic roster. Bob Caudle sends us to commercial break as they try to restore order in Studio A.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Caudle discusses what just transpired between Buddy Rogers and Johnny Valentine. He runs down next week’s lineup of Gorgeous George with tag partner Buddy Rose, The Valiant Brothers, Nick Bockwinkel, Killer Kowalski, and Ox Baker.

- “We’ll see you next week fans, and until then, so long for now!”

Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling
Studio A at WRAL
Raleigh, NC
January 16th, 2010
Hosted by Bob Caudle

- Jim Crockett joins Bob Caudle as we open Championship Wrestling. He announces a match between The Destroyer and Giant Baba is signed for the Charlotte Coliseum on January 29th. Caudle asks about his reaction to the Road Warriors’ vicious behavior last week. Crockett says that the Road Warriors, while a brutal team, did nothing illegal. They have a contract with Crockett Promotions and are authorized to participate in any event. Bobo Brazil comes out and tells Crockett he should reconsider. Crockett reiterates that, since the Road Warriors are under contract, there is nothing he can do. Bobo tells him that he is forcing him to take action.

- The Valiants b Soul Patrol (SD Jones/Sweet Brown Sugar) with the TOP ROPE ELBOW

- The Valiants join Bob after their match and Jimmy brings a 2X4 with them. He proceeds to have a little fun with The Iron Sheik, wildly swinging it over his head as Johnny counts well into the thousands, skipping a few numbers, of course. Bob says the Valiants seem to be challenging Sheik and Volkoff, and the brothers respond that they have no plans for the 29th!

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Ox Baker b Cousin Luke with a knee drop to the head.
* During the match Caudle plays up the fact that we have yet to see The Sandman in action, and he is taking a big risk by stepping into the ring with a dangerous competitor like Ox Baker.

- Gorgeous George & Buddy Rose b Danny Doring & Mike Jones with a SPINNING TOE HOLD.

- The Road Warriors come out after the match and absolutely decimate Doring and Jones. Bobo Brazil comes through the curtain and makes a beeline for the Warriors. After delivering a Coco Butt to Hawk, he turns into a massive clothesline from Animal. The Roadies begin stomping Bobo and, finally, deliver a Doomsday Device. They exit the ring to massive boos from the studio audience, being pelted with trash all the way to the curtain.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Killer Kowalski b Larry Sharpe with a CLAW HOLD

- After his match, Kowalski gives a fiery promo about the Road Warriors attack on Bobo Brazil. He says that it doesn’t take much for a gang to beat down one man, but he wants to see what the Road Warriors would do if they have to face Kowalski and Brazil. He’s giving Bobo an open invitation, any time or any place, and they’ll take out the Road Warriors together.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- Nick Bockwinkel b George South with the FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK

- Bockwinkel declares himself the best wrestler in the world and says with a single boot to the gut he put Frank Gotch out of wrestling. He asks Caudle if he’s heard from Gotch in the last two weeks and interrupts him before he has a chance to answer. Bockwinkel asks Caudle if Jim Crockett has any real talent in this promotion, or if he is going to face losers like George South and Frank Gotch every week.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

- NEXT WEEK: Giant Baba, Harley Race, Flying Redheads, Ted Dibiase, & Jimmy Snuka

- “We’ll see you next week fans, and until then, so long for now!”
