GLCW TV #1 @ Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada

Great Lakes Championship Wrestling started out GLCW TV #1 with Booker D., the GLCW President, coming out to the ring. Booker D. told the fans in attendance that he was pleased to bring professional wrestling back to the Great Lakes. He boldly proclaimed that GLCW would be about pure wrestling, not sport's entertainment. The fans obviously loved the last statement.

Texas Hangmen vs. Tolos Brothers
- John and Chris Tolos made short work of the Texas Hangmen, Killer and Psycho. Chris and Psycho started the match trading fists. Psycho hit Chris with a running power slam, but Chris was able to quickly make it back to his feet and work over the Texas Hangman. Psycho eventually tagged in Killer, but John Tolos finished him with a Flying Knee Drop!

The Missing Link vs. Brad Armstrong
- The Missing Link gave Brad Armstrong a nasty beating. Armstrong was able to wrestle circles around the Missing Link at first, but the odd brawler struck Armstrong with a chair when the referee was down. The Missing Link was then able to beat down the fan favorite and finish him off with the Back Flying Headbutt.

PG-13 bumped into Bob Armstrong backstage. Wolfie D. and J.C. Ice poke fun at "Bullet" Bob because his son just lost a match. Armstrong kept his cool and told them that the Armstrongs would gladly take them on next week. PG-13 laughed and accepted.

Jim Powers vs. Ox Baker
- Ox Baker put Jim Powers away with haste. Baker was thrown off by Powers' agility early on; however, Ox had more power than Powers had speed. Ox eventually dismantled Powers with each power move he hit. After realizing Powers wasn't getting up from a shoulder breaker, Baker didn't even care to use the Heart Punch.

The Sandman vs. Tracy Smothers
- Tracy Smothers picked up a win over the Sandman via disqualification. The Sandman got a quick two count after the White Russian Leg Sweep and went for his Singapore Cane. After the Sandman struck Smothers over the head, the referee had no other choice but to call for the bell. After the match, Smothers took the Singapore Cane from the Sandman and beat him all the way to the back.

GLCW TV #2 @ Grand Marais, Minnesota

Billy "Red" Lyons vs. Afa, Jr.
- Lyons did his best to keep the Samoan on the mat. Afa, Jr. used his power to keep Lyons off his feet. Lyons at one point applied the Sleeper Hold and Figure Four Leglock, but Afa broke the holds. The match eventually spilled to the outside where Afa was disqualified for refusing to bring the fight back into the ring.

The Armstrongs vs. PG-13
- Bob Armstrong schooled J.C. Ice on the mat, but the PG-13 member struck "Bullet" Bob with a hubcap and tagged in Wolfie D. Armstrong came back and applied the Sleeper; however, Wolfie got to the ropes. Brad was eventually tagged in and hit Wolfie with the Russian Leg Sweep. Ice made the save. In the end, Brad folded Wolfie with a knee lift and got the pinfall.

Warlord came out to the ring and challenged anyone to a hardcore, no disqualification match. The crowd exploded when Tracy Smothers came down to the ring and stood toe-to-toe with the beast. The bell rang and the match started with flying fists.

Warlord vs. Tracy Smothers
- This turned out to be a rough, back and forth brawl in and out of the ring. Warlord applied the Full Nelson twice, but Smothers managed to get out and attack. When it looked like nothing Smothers threw at Warlord would work, Smothers used the Jawjacker twice to get the pinfall.

Tommy Rich vs. Eddie Gilbert
- What a battle this was, with "Wildfire" burning "Hot Stuff" in the end. Gilbert kept the match outside of the ring, but Rich brought it back in and kept the match clean. It took multiple finishers, but Rich finally put Gilbert to sleep in the center of the ring with the Sleeper.

Lou Thesz came out as Tommy Rich was celebrating. Thesz told Rich he had a nice match but didn't like him using the Thesz Press. Rich told Thesz he respected him but wouldn't take his talk. Thesz nodded and told Rich they'd meet in the ring next week. While this took place, Gilbert got up and nailed Rich with a Fireball to close the show. The medical staff quickly run down to the ring to help.

Another fed with Smothers on a roll. I like it! Rich may be biting off more than he can chew when it comes to Thesz. I look forward to more Booker!

Thanks for the comments. I've missed playing LOW since all the other new stuff came out. However, LOW is still my favorite part of FG. This fed is just a fun venture with little booking. I'm just going with the flow. Booker Bill and Crimson Cross inspired me to give posting a LOW fed another go.

In the words of Troy, "LOW B&W Forever."

Smothers going 5-0 for me was a surprise and it's good to see him doing well here in your Fed D. Plus, it's good to see your rolling-n-posting a LOW fed again...
