It's now time for the first-ever edition of Saturday EAWA! And today's edition of Saturday EAWA is an extra 2 hours long and features a 16 man tournament to determine the first ever EAWA Champion!
Major League Wrestling (MLW) EAWA Saturday October 18, 2008 The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV (First Third of the show)
Match #1 (First Round): Sabu defeated Hardcore Hodge
- Hardcore Hodge proved no match for Sabu who controlled most of the action and won via a TRIPLE JUMP MOONSAULT to advance to the Quarter Finals.
Mr. Perfect Promo/Vignette: Mr. Perfect is shown playing blackjack at Mandalay Bay. Mr. Perfect is shown holding a 10 and a 9 for 19 and then surprisingly tells the dealer "hit me." The dealer gives Mr. Perfect another card and it's a 2 for a total of 21 which gives Mr. Perfect blackjack for the win as the dealer is then shown to have a hand of 20.
- As Mr. Perfect pulls across all the chips he won in that hand he stares into the camera and says: "That's what separates me from the common people like you. I know how to win and everything I do is absolutely perfect. And no matter who wins the EAWA Championship in today's tournament, I'll be setting my sights on that title once I'm healthy enough to return to the ring after Survivor Series."
Match #2 (First Round): Masked Superstar defeated Angelo Mosca
- In a very competitive match, the Masked Superstar advanced to the Quarter Finals when he made Mosca tap out to his COBRA HOLD.
Match #3 (First Round): The Crusher defeated Konnan
- Konnan came very close to scoring the upset as he managed 3 near pinfalls against The Crusher. But The Crusher won to advance to the Quarter Finals when he finally connected with his CRUSHER BOLO for the first time in the match.
Match #4 (First Round): Larry "The Axe" Hennig defeated King Kong Bundy
-In this back and forth battle, The Axe prevailed via THE AXE.
Match #5 (First Round): Bob Orton Sr. defeated the Sandman
- Sandman executed an impressive series of offense early. But Orton Sr. managed to regain the offensive and proceeded to wear down the Sandman before putting him away via his PILEDRIVER.
Match #6 (First Round): Ray Stevens defeated Dick Hutton
- Stevens overcame tough resistance from Hutton to finally win via his BOMBS AWAY finisher.
Match #7 (First Round): Giant Baba defeated Playboy Buddy Rose
- In a quick match, Baba won via his NECKBREAKER DROP.
Match #8 (First Round): The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase (accompanied by Virgil) defeated Chris Candido (accompanied by Tammy).
- To complete the First Round matchups, the Million Dollar Man (the EAWA's general manager) won without too much trouble to advance to the Quarter Finals by clamping on his MILLION DOLLAR SLEEPER until Candido passed out.
Match #9 (a non-tournament match): The Terrible Turk defeated Danny Doring.
- This non-tournament match took place as a break between the First Round and the Second Round/Quarter Finals.
- This was a good competitive match marked by near pinfalls by both competitors but the Terrible Turk won via his STRANGLEHOLD- a move he won't have to worry about being DQd for using here in the extreme rules environment of the EAWA.
End of First Third. Second Third will be posted next and includes the following Quarter Finals matchups:
Sabu vs The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase The Masked Superstar vs Bob Orton Sr. The Crusher vs Ray Stevens Giant Baba vs Larry "The Axe" Hennig

Major League Wrestling (MLW) EAWA Saturday October 18, 2008 The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV (Second Third of the show, First Third is posted above)
Match #10 (Quarter Finals): Sabu defeated the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase (accompanied by Virgil)
- The Million Dollar Man thought he had this match guaranteed against Sabu who DiBiase promoted from Minor League Wrestling. DiBiase gestured to Virgil to start pulling out wads of cash to give to Sabu to take a dive when suddenly Sabu pointed to the lights and then, after DiBiase looked up toward where Sabu was pointing, punched a surprised DiBiase to start this match. Sabu then hit DiBiase with Air Sabu, an Arabian facebuster, and then a spectacular (+5) TRIPLE JUMP MOONSAULT for the quick pinfall.
- As Sabu left for the back in victory advancing to the Semi-Finals, an angry and shocked DiBiase shouted after him as it looks like Sabu has now started a feud with the EAWA's general manager!
Match #11 (Quarter Finals): The Crusher defeated Ray Stevens
- The Crusher and Stevens, who fought each other on their former brand RAW where The Crusher had a major feud against Stevens and the rest of the Heenan Family, battled each once again here on their new brand the EAWA.
-Like he did in most of their matches against each other on RAW, The Crusher defeated Stevens once again by pinning him via his CRUSHER BOLO to advance to the Semi-Finals.
Match #12 (Quarter Finals): Masked Superstar defeated Bob Orton Sr.
- The Masked Superstar defeated Orton Sr. via his COBRA HOLD to advance to the Semi-Finals.

Match #13 (Quarter Finals): Giant Baba defeated Larry "the Axe" Hennig
- Hennig and Baba shook hands before this match started.
- Baba won this match via his NECKBREAKER DROP to advance to the Semi-Finals.
Match #14 (a non-tournament match): Tom Prichard (accompanied by Tammy) defeated Justin Credible
- This non-tournament match took place as a break between the Quarter Finals and Semi-Finals rounds.
- In this match, both Prichard and Credible took advantage of the EAWA's extreme rules as Prichard repeatedly hit Credible with a FOREIGN OBJECT and Credible repeatedly hit Prichard with his SINGAPORE CANE.
- After both opponents scored multiple pin attempts against each other by hitting each other with their weapons, Prichard finally put Credible away via his FOREIGN OBJECT.

Major League Wrestling (MLW) EAWA Saturday October 18, 2008 The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV (Final Third of the show, First Third and Second Third are both posted above)
Match #15 (Semi-Finals): Masked Superstar defeated Sabu.
- For the third time in all 3 of this tournament matches today, the Masked Superstar won again via his COBRA HOLD and he now advances to the tournament finals.
- During this match, EAWA General Manager the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase (still upset about what Sabu did to him in the previous round) showed up at ringside and yelled at Sabu. Once the match ended, DiBiase and Virgil then entered the ring and stomped on Sabu before leaving for the back as it looks like Sabu has now replaced Savage-T as the main enemy of the Million Dollar Man.
Match #16 (Semi-Finals): The Crusher defeated Giant Baba
- The Crusher and Baba shook hands before this match started.
- This turned into a highly competitive match and at one point, when the action spilled out onto the floor, The Crusher and Baba brawled against each other for so long that they probably would have both been counted out if it wasn't for the EAWA extreme rules of no DQ and no countout. The Crusher however finally got the win via his CRUSHER BOLO to advance to the Final Round where he will battle the Masked Superstar for the EAWA Championship!
Match #17 (non-tournament mathcup): The Valiants defeated the Samoan Island Tribe and the Vachons (managed by "Wild" Red Berry) in an elimination tag match.
- The Vachons came to the ring managed by "Wild" Red Berry who was also their old manager over on RAW before they were later managed there by Abdullah Farouk.
-The Valiants teamed together for the first time in over 15 months as Jimmy Valiant has been out of Major League Wrestling ever since MLW's original brand split into RAW and Smackdown.
- First Elimination: The Vachons when Alofa pinned Butcher Vachon via a double team headbutt.
- Second Elimination: Samoan Island Tribe when Jimmy Valiant pinned Alofa via a fistdrop.
- The newly reunited Valiants won tonight's match but will they also later become the first-ever EAWA Tag Team Championships?
Match #18: (Final Round): The Crusher defeated the Masked Superstar to become the first-ever EAWA Champion!
- The Crusher once again used his CRUSHER BOLO to win this match for the EAWA Championship!
- After repeated unsuccessful attempts at winning the World Championship from Nick Bockwinkel over on RAW, this is also The Crusher's first-ever championship in Major League Wrestling.
In the Ring: AS Larry "The Axe" Hennig comes out with alot of beer to help The Crusher celebrate his EAWA Championship, MLW Chairman Bruno Sammartino made a surprise appearance.
- Sammartino congratulated The Crusher and ended the show by announcing that The Crusher's first potential title defense would come at Cyber Sunday on November 2 as part of the biggest main event in Major League Wrestling History: a triple threat match of RAW's World Champion Nick Bockwinkel vs Smackdown's MLW Champion Buddy Rogers vs the EAWA's EAWA Champion The Crusher! And the MLW Universe will vote to decide which of these 3 titles will be on the line at Cyber Sunday!
End of Show. Please vote when MLW's Cyber Sunday polls open up (get posted) next week!

It's now time for this week's edition of RAW on its new night Tuesday. And this is the last RAW until next weekend's RAW presentation of Cyber Sunday!
Major League Wrestling RAW Tuesday 10/21/08 The Major League Wrestling Arena (First Half of the show)
- This week's edition of Tuesday Night RAW starts off with the music of "Pomp and Circumstance" as Cruiserweight Champion Gorgeous George comes out to serve as a guest color commentator for tonight's first match.
Match #1: Iron Mike DiBiase defeated Pepper Gomez and the Missing Link in a triple threat match.
- As this match was set to begin, George commented that he hopes the MLW Universe doesn't choose "that freak psycho" the Missing Link to wrestle him at Cyber Sunday for his Cruiserweight Championship
- In this matchup of the 3 possibilities the MLW Universe can choose from to challenge for George's Cruiserweight Championship at Cyber Sunday, DiBiase won by putting the Missing Link away via a sleeper.
- But will DiBiase's victory tonight actually help him in the Cyber Sunday voting to challenge George who stood up at the announcers table and applauded DiBiase's victory and who was DiBiase's tag team partner in the Second Annual Sammartino Invitational?
Match #2: Harley Race (managed by Bobby Heenan and accompanied by Heenan Family "problem solver" Ox Baker) defeated Larry Sharpe.
-As this match started, the TV announcers reminded their viewers that the polls are now open for the MLW Universe to choose either Mil Mascaras, Jimmy Snuka, or Diamond Dallas Page as Race's Cyber Sunday opponent in a #1 contenders' match as the next challenger on RAW to Nick Bockwinkel's World Championship first has to get past Race.
- Race easily dispatched Sharpe in this match and even looked like he could have won this match earlier at one point after delivering his PILEDRIVER but he lifted Sharpe's head up at the 2 count to inflict more punishment before finally putting Sharpe out of his misery via another PILEDRIVER.
- After the match, Race grabbed the microphone.
- Race: "Mascaras, Snuka, and DDP. Let me take a second to let you know just who the hell I am. Although I don't wear a stupid crown and robe, they call me The King of the Ring and you first have to get past me before one of you gets a title shot against Bockwinkel. And that's because I'm that, damn, good!"
Match #3: MLW Tag Team Champions the Fabulous Kangaroos (managed by Captain Kangaroo) defeated the Killer Bees in a non-title match
- In a preparation match for next weekend's title defense against an unknown opponent at Cyber Sunday, the Kangaroos dominated this match and easily won when Roy Heffernan forced B. Brian Blair to tap out as the Killer Bees recent struggles continue once again.
- The Fabulous Kangaroos looked good tonight but will their title defense next weekend at Cyber Sunday be against the New Age Outlaws, Greg Valentine and Brutus Beefcake, or Yukon Eric and Cousin Luke?
Match #4: Don Muraco (accompanied by Ladies Champion Sherri Martel) defeated Bruiser Brody.
- Muraco defeated his enemy Brody via an Asiatic Spike followed by the HAWAIIAN HAMMER while also getting away with putting both of his feet on the ropes for extra leverage as the referee made the 3 count.
- Afterward, an enraged Brody grabbed his chain and chased away Muraco and Martel as he stood in the center of the ring twirling his chain above his head and the announcers ask their viewers just how much damage Brody could do to Muraco at Cyber Sunday if the MLW Universe chooses a steel chain match as their match stipulation.
Match #5: New Age Outlaws defeated Greg Valentine and Brutus Beefcake and Yukon Eric and Cousin Luke in a tag team elimination match.
- Before the start of this match involving the 3 tag teams the MLW Universe can vote for to challenge the Fabulous Kangaroos for the MLW Tag Team Championship at Cyber Sunday, Beefcake grabbed the microphone and told the MLW Universe in attendance "Don't worry. There's still time to vote for me and Valentine for Cyber Sunday" which prompted a loud chorus of boos from the MLW fans.
- First Elimination: Yukon Eric and Cousin Luke as Beefcake pinned Yukon Eric via FLYING KNEE SMASH.
- Second Elimination: Valentine and Beefcake as Kip James pinned Valentine via STANDING LEG DROP to win the match.
- The New Age Outlaws won this elimination match tonight against their two tag team opponents in the Cyber Sunday voting to challenge the Fabulous Kangaroos for the MLW Championship. But will they also win at the ballot box next weekend to finally get their rematch against the Kangaroos who took the MLW Tag Team Championship from them at Unforgiven?
End of First Half. Second Half will be posted next and includes another match between Bobo Brazil and The Sheik, a triple threat match of Ed "Strangler" Lewis vs Cowboy Bob Orton Jr vs Rick Rude in a contest between the 3 men competing to be voted as Intercontinental Champion Jim Londos' Cyber Sunday challenger, World Champion Nick Bockwinkel in action, and a triple threat main event of Mil Mascaras vs Diamond Dallas Page vs Jimmy Snuka in a contest between the 3 men competing to be voted as Race's Cyber Sunday opponent in the #1 contenders' match at Cyber Sunday!

Major League Wrestling RAW Tuesday 10/21/08 The Major League Wrestling Arena (Second Half of the show, First Half is posted above)
Match #6: The Sheik (managed by Abdullah Farouk) defeated Bobo Brazil by DQ
- For the second consecutive week on RAW, this matchup ended in a DQ but this time it was Brazil getting disqualified because he repeatedly smashed the ring bell into the head of his enemy The Sheik once the action spilled outside of the ring during this match. Brazil vs The Sheik has definitely turned into a candidate for the MLW Feud of the Year Award.
- But at Cyber Sunday, no matter if it's a steel cage match, falls count anywhere match, or coffin match that the MLW Universe votes for, there will be a guaranteed unquestionable winner between Brazil and The Sheik!
Match #7: Ed "Strangler" Lewis defeated Rick Rude and Cowboy Bob Orton Jr in a triple threat match.
- This matchup featured the 3 candidates the MLW Universe can choose from to vote to challenge Intercontinental Champion Jim Londos- who tonight provided guest color commentary at ringside for this match- at Cyber Sunday.
- Lewis won when he wore down and made Orton Jr. tap out to his STRANGLER'S HEADLOCK. But will it be Lewis that the MLW Universe chooses to challenge Londos for the Intercontinental Championship at Cyber Sunday on November 2?

Match #8: World Champion Nick Bockwinkel (accompanied by Bobby Heenan and Ox Baker) defeated S.D. Jones in a non-title match.
- Bockwinkel won via his BOCKWINKEL SLEEPER as he used this match as a warmup for next weekend's Cyber Sunday mega main event of him vs MLW Champion Buddy Rogers vs EAWA Champion The Crusher in a triple threat match in which the MLW Universe will vote to determine which of these champions will have their title on the line.
- Afterward Bockwinkel got on the microphone and accused MLW Chairman Bruno Sammartino of creating the Cyber Sunday mega main event match stipulation not merely as a way to help promote MLW's newest brand the EAWA but rather as a plot to get the World Championship off of Bockwinkel because otherwise nobody will ever defeat Bockwinkel as nobody on RAW since Unforgiven has even met the new requirement for a title match of first defeating Harley Race.
Match #9, the main event: Mil Mascaras defeated Jimmy Snuka and Diamond Dallas Page in a triple threat match
- Mascaras won this match when he pinned DDP via FLYING BODYPRESS in a match featuring the 3 candidates the MLW Universe can vote from to wrestle Harley Race in a potential #1 contenders' match.
- But will Mascaras be the one of these 3 to be voted in to challenge Race at Cyber Sunday?
End of Show. Be sure to tune in on Friday for this week's presentation of Smackdown!

It's now time for this week's edition of Friday Night Smackdown!
Major League Wrestling (MLW) Smackdown Friday October 24, 2008 The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV (First Half of show)
Match #1: Fritz Von Goering defeated Antonino Rocca
- One week after defeating his enemy Ivan Koloff on Smackdown in a feud ending steel cage match, Rocca suffered an upset defeat this week as he succumbed to a reverse full nelson by Von Goering and as many fans in attendance could be seen tearing up their betting tickets.
- Afterward, it appeared Rocca injured himself in this match which may have been a factor in this loss as he he had to be helped to the back by the Boogie Woogie Man, Savage-T, George South, and the Armstrongs.
Match #2: United States Tag Team Champions the Midnight Express (Bobby Eaton and Stan Lane, managed by Jim Cornette) defeated the New Midnight Express (Dennis Condrey and Rapping Red Bastien) in a non-title match
- The Midnight Express won this match when Lane pinned Condrey following a ROCKET LAUNCHER.
- Cornette afterward got on the microphone and said, although he's willing to keep embarrassing former Midnight Express member Dennis Condrey week after week anyway, the New Midnight Express first have to defeat the Midnight Express in a non-title match if they want a shot at the United States Tag Team Championship.
Backstage: Killer Kowalski is seen giving a suitcase full of cash to Eddie Fyne in return for the contract of Don Leo Jonathan. Now Kowalski manages both Steve "Dr. Death" Williams and Don Leo Jonathan.
Match #3: Buff Bagwell, Tiger Mask, and Jushin Liger defeated Killer Kowalski, Steve "Dr. Death" Williams, and Don Leo Jonathan in a 6 man tag team match.
- Kowalski's team dominated most of the action in this match against the much smaller and lighter Tiger Mask and Liger. But for the second time in 3 matches tonight, a major upset occurred and more torn betting slips ended up on the floor of The Major League Wrestling Arena as Bagwell suddenly dodged a standing dropick from Williams and then hit Williams with a dropick of his own followed by his BUFF BLOCKBUSTER for the win. Even though neither one of them scored the pinfall, Tiger Mask and Jushin Liger finally have a victory over Kowalski and Williams.
- Afterward, DLJ entered the ring and threw Bagwell out through the ropes after giving him a MORMON SWING.
Match #4: Antonio Inoki and Hacksaw Jim Duggan defeated Mr. Canada (Billy "Red" Lyons) and The Mountie
- As part of his continuing feud against both Mr. Canada and The Mountie, Duggan got Inoki to be his tag team partner this week.
- Inoki and Duggan got the win when Duggan pinned The Mountie via his FLYING SPEAR.
End of First Half. Second Half will be posted next and includes The Mongols on the Hot Seat, MLW Champion Buddy Rogers in action, and the main event of Frank Gotch vs George Hackenschmidt as part of Gotch's quest to defeat each of the 3 other members of the Four Horsemen in order to get a shot at Rogers' MLW Championship.

Major League Wrestling (MLW) Smackdown Friday October 24, 2008 The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV (Second Half of show, First Half is posted above)
Hot Seat: Sir Oliver Humperdink and The Mongols are the guests. Humperdink brags about how the Mongols beat up the Road Warriors so badly backstage last week that Hawk and Animal aren't even here this week on Smackdown and vowed to take away the Road Warriors' World Tag Team Championship!
Match #5: MLW Champion Buddy Rogers (accompanied by The Horsemen: Johnny Valentine, George Hackenschmidt, and Larry Zbyszko) defeated Koko B. Ware in a non-title match.
- Rogers won this match without expending too much effort. The end came when Rogers threw Ware outside of the ring where The Horsemen grabbed Ware and threw him back into the ring toward Rogers who finished off The Birdman with a pole ram followed by his FIGURE FOUR GRAPEVINE to which Ware immediately tapped out.
- Afterward, Rogers got on the microphone and promised he won't lose his MLW Championship next weekend at Cyber Sunday even if the MLW Universe votes against him and forces him to be the one to get the pinfall or submission attempt to retain his MLW Championship in the main event match of World Champion Nick Bockwinkel vs EAWA Champion The Crusher vs himself (MLW Champion Buddy Rogers) with the MLW Universe voting to determine which one of these 3 champions have to put their title on the line!
- Rogers also vowed not to lose his MLW Championship anytime soon to Frank Gotch on Smackdown either by declaring that Hackenschmidt tonight will defeat Gotch and thus prevent Gotch from becoming one step closer to challenging Rogers to a match for Rogers' MLW Championship!
Backstage: United States Champion Dan "the Beast" Severn is seen walking down a hallway when he is suddenly attacked by Ivan Koloff, Nikolai Volkoff, and Nikita Breznikov. Koloff, who last week on Smackdown lost the steel cage feud-ending match to his enemy Rocca, chokes Severn with his Russian chain and says he's looking to take away Severn's United States Championship!
Match #6, the main event: Frank Gotch defeated George Hackenschmidt (accompanied by MLW Champion Buddy Rogers, Johnny Valentine, and Larry Zbyszko) by DQ.
- Gotch, who last week defeated Zbyszko on Smackdown, came into this match just needing to defeat the 2 other members (Hackenschmidt and Valentine) of the Four Horsemen to earn a shot at Rogers' MLW Championship.
- Gotch appeared to have this match won via his GOTCH TOEHOLD when Rogers suddenly distracted him. Gotch then went outside of the ring to confront Rogers only to get attacked from behind by Valentine and Zbyszko as the referee called for the bell disqualifying Hackenschmidt.
- Afterward, Rogers announced that although Gotch got the win tonight he still failed to win by pinfall or submission so Gotch is now ineligible for a match for Rogers' MLW Championship anytime in the near future!
End of show. See you Saturday for Saturday EAWA!

It's now time for this week's edition of Saturday EAWA (the Extreme AWA-where all matches are contested by extreme rules!
Major League Wrestling (MLW) EAWA Saturday October 25, 2008 The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV (First half of show)
In the Ring: EAWA General Manager the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase and Virgil.
- DiBiase announces that tonight's main event will be a rematch from last weekend's EAWA Championship Tournament Finals- EAWA Champion The Crusher vs The Masked Superstar!
- DiBiase said tonight's main event will be non-title since The Crusher is already scheduled to appear at Cyber Sunday as the EAWA Champion in the triple threat main event of RAW's World Champion Nick Bockwinkel vs Smackdown's MLW Champion Buddy Rogers vs the EAWA's EAWA Champion The Crusher with the MLW Universe voting to determine whose championship will be on the line. But if the Masked Superstar wins tonight and if The Crusher leaves Cyber Sunday retaining the EAWA Championship, then the Masked Superstar will receive a title shot on the following edition of Saturday EAWA!
- DiBiase then announced that Sabu will pay for betraying him in the second round of last weekend's EAWA Championship Tournament, when Sabu refused to take a dive and instead went on the offensive against and pinned a surprised DiBiase, as Virgil is set to teach Sabu a lesson right now!
- Sabu's entrance music then sounds and Sabu appears for the opening match this week on Saturday EAWA.
Match #1A: Sabu defeated Virgil (accompanied by the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase)
- Virgil put up a pretty tough fight and twice almost made Sabu tap out to his COBRA CLUTCH. Sabu also had problems in this match because he missed all 4 of his attempted TRIPLE JUMP MOONSAULTS- but two of those misses were because DiBiase was blatantly shaking the ring ropes at the time without fear of getting the DQ since the EAWA has extreme rules for all its matches. Sabu finally put Virgil away via his CAMEL CLUTCH.
- As a victorious but completely exhausted Sabu lies on his back in the ring after finally putting Virgil away, DiBiase then grabs the microphone to announce that Sabu's match will actually continue because this is now a gauntlet match for Sabu! Ray Stevens then comes down the ramp to be Sabu's next opponent.
Match #1B: Ray Stevens defeated Sabu.
- Sabu easily got the victory over a visibly tired Sabu by getting the win via his CRIPPLING PILEDRIVER after only a few moves. DiBiase then hands Stevens a handful of cash as Bob Orton Sr. then walks down the ramp as Sabu's gauntlet match continues!
Match #1C: Bob Orton Sr. defeated Sabu
- Now even more tired with his fatigue level obviously increased after having to already wrestle Virgil and then Stevens, Sabu got pulverized by Orton Sr. who easily won this match via his PILEDRIVER. DiBiase then hands Orton Sr. a handful of cash and announces that Sabu's final opponent in tonight's gauntlet match will be himself (DiBiase)!
Match #1D: The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase defeated Sabu.
- Sabu surprised DiBiase by briefly unleashing an impressive series of offense. But Sabu's high level of fatigue of having to first wrestle 3 other wrestlers soon worked against him and DiBiase won by putting Sabu away via his MILLION DOLLAR SLEEPER.
-Afterward, DiBiase pointed toward Sabu and said that is an example of what will happen to any wrestler who dares double cross him here in the EAWA where the Million Dollar Man is the general manager!
In the Ring: Tammy.
- Tammy introduces her new tag team of Chris Candido and Tom Prichard who she calls The Bodydonnas and who will be competing in the EAWA Tag Team Championship tournament which starts next week to determine the first-ever EAWA Tag Team Champions!
Match #2: Playboy Buddy Rose and Danny Doring defeated The Bodydonnas (managed by Tammy)
- The end of this match came when former Cruiserweight Champion Rose gave Candido a BOMBS AWAY. Tammy jumped on the apron to stop the 3 count but got knocked off to the floor when Rose then threw Candido into the ropes to collide with her. Rose then gave Candido another BOMBS AWAY but Candido manged to get his foot on the ropes. Rose then immediately gave Candido a 3rd BOMBS AWAY and this time Candido got pinned.
- The TV announcers mention that Rose and Doring are also registered for the EAWA Tag Team Championship Tournament that starts next week as are the tag team you're about to hear from next:
Promo: Hardcore Hodge and Dick Hutton
Hodge (while crushing an apple with one hand): "My name is Hardcore Hodge."
Hutton: "My name is Hardcore Hutton."
Hodge: "We're The Heroes of Hardcore and we're looking to win the EAWA Tag Team Championship in the tournament that starts next week!"
Match #3: King Kong Bundy defeated Precious Paul Ellering
Ellering, who has now returned to Major League Wrestling as a low card wrestler once again by signing as a free agent with the EAWA, actually gave Bundy some problems earlier in this match and nearly even won via his FULL NELSON. But Bundy avoided the huge upset and, once he took over on offense, completely dominated the match until he put Ellering way via his AVALANCHE. Bundy then requested and received a 5 count against Ellering from the referee before giving Ellering two more AVALANCHES.
- Backstage, DiBiase is seen grinning while watching this match with Virgil and telling Virgil that Bundy is the type of wrestler he wants to acquire for his new Million Dollar Corporation here in the EAWA!
Backstage: Larry "The Axe" Hennig runs into the Sandman and Justin Credible.
-Hennig tells Sandman and Credible he's an AWA Original and he intends to fight for the honor of the original AWA by taking out the extremist trash on the EAWA such as Sandman and Credible.
- Sandman and Credible say they've reformed their old tag team from Smackdown called the Barroom Heroes and challenge Hennig and any other AWA Original he can find to a match tonight on EAWA.
Match #4: Konnan defeated the Samoan Island Tribe in a handicap match.
- Konnan was originally only supposed to wrestle Alofa. But once Konnan got to the ring and saw Samu there too, he cussed and said he'd take them both on in a handicap match!
- Konnan impressively won this 1 on 2 matchup by putting Alofa away via TEQUILA SUNRISE.
- The announcers comment that if the Samoan Island Tribe can't even win a 2 on 1 matchup, how can they expect to do well in the EAWA Tag Team Championship Tournament that starts next week on EAWA.
End of First Half. Second Half will be posted next and includes: Giant Baba vs the Terrible Turk, Larry "The Axe" Hennig and another AWA Original vs the Barroom Heroes, a new Mr. Perfect promo/vignette (find out how Mr. Perfect did at the sports book), the Valiants vs the Vachons with the winner receiving the #1 seed in the upcoming EAWA Tag Team Championship Tournament, and EAWA Champion The Crusher vs the Masked Superstar!

- Mosca turned out to be the other AWA Original that The Axe found to be his tag team partner against the extremist (for wrestling style) Barroom Heroes.
- The TV announcers comment that they've just received word that Hennig and Mosca have now also registered to participate in the EAWA Tag Team Championship Tournament which starts next week!
This match ended with the Barroom Heroes scoring an upset as Credible gave Hennig THAT'S INCREDIBLE and as the Sandman used his Singapore Cane for extra leverage to hold down Hennig's legs as the referee made the 3 count in this extreme rules tag team match.
- Hennig afterward got up and yelled at the referee about the Sandman's blatant interference. But in the extreme rules of the EAWA the referee couldn't do anything.
Mr. Perfect Promo/Vignette
- Mr. Perfect, who is still out injured, is seen at the sports book at the Planet Hollywood casino on The Strip.
-Mr. Perfect: "We all know that Las Vegas wasn't built on the backs of the common losers like yourselves as you all lose much more money than you win whenever you gamble."
- Mr. Perfect: "For example, let's look at the sportsbook where a parlay bet of even just 3 teams is considered a house bet because over 90% of parlay betters lose."
- Mr. Perfect: "But this is what separates me from you as I, Mr. Perfect, have a parlay on which I went 9 for 9 which means I'm about to receive a payout of 375 to 1."
- Mr. Perfect then walks up to the ticket window and gives his ticket to the ticket writer who checks the ticket and then gives Mr. Perfect his payout. Since Mr. Perfect wagered $1,000, his payout at 375 to 1 on a 9 teamer means he turned $1,000 into $376,000 (the 375 to 1 payout plus his original bet back).
- Mr. Perfect: "And that's why they call me Mr. Perfect. And once I return to the EAWA after Survivor Series, I will be looking to win the EAWA Championship!"
- After the promo, the TV announcers mention that Mr. Perfect right now is actually tentatively scheduled to make his EAWA debut at the December to Dismember PPV on Sunday December 7!
Match #7: The Valiants defeated The Vachons (managed by "Wild" Red Berry) in a #1 seed match
- In the best match of the night, the Valiants won when Johnny Valiant pinned Butcher Vachon following a TOP ROPE ELBOW in a match to determine the #1 seed in the EAWA Tag Team Championship Tournament that starts next week!
- The Valiants also won last week's elimination tag match against the Vachons and the Samoan Island Tribe. And now as the #1 seed in the tournament that starts next week, will they be able to win the EAWA Tag Team Championship Tournament?
Hot Seat: Bill Apter interviews an EAWA official who lists in order of seeding the 8 tag teams competing in the EAWA Tag Team Championship Tournament:
1. Valiants 2. Vachons 3. The Heroes of Hardcore 4. The Barroom Heroes 5. Larry "The Axe" Hennig and Angelo Mosca 6. Samoan Island Tribe 7. Playboy Buddy Rose and Danny Doring 8. The Bodydonnas
- The EAWA official then tells Apter that this tournament's first round takes place next week, the second round then takes place the following week, and the tournament finals will take place at December to Dismember!
Match #8, the main event: EAWA Champion The Crusher defeated The Masked Superstar in a non-title match.
- In a rematch from last week's EAWA Championship Tournament Finals, The Crusher won via his CRUSHER BOLO. Afterward, it looked like the Masked Superstar might be hurt as he had trouble getting up after getting hit with The Crusher's finisher.
- As The Crusher gets his hand raised in victory, the show ends with the TV announcers asking if The Crusher will still be champion after Cyber Sunday when, depending on the vote by the MLW Universe, he may have to be the one putting his title on the line in the triple threat main event match of RAW's World Champion Nick Bockwinkel vs Smackdown's MLW Champion Buddy Rogers vs EAWA's EAWA Champion The Crusher!
End of show.
