Nice additions made to the roster, especially Exotic Adrian Street and The French Angel joining forces. I was shocked to see Gotch & Hack lose on a DQ especially with Gotch losing his cool. I agree on that Snuka vs. RVD match but I enjoyed it immensely. Hey Cruefan, Thanks very much my friend. Glad you enjoyed the additions. Street and Angel was a team I used to run and thought this would be a good time to pair them up again. Candido and Savage I had never paired up before but something told me to try. Originally I was going to limit the roster but with all the fantastic possibilities of this game, I just can't. So I'm going to add slowly and carefully when it feels right. I was very shocked as well when Gotch snapped - for the life of me I can't remember the last time either Gotch or Hackenschmidt blew a fuse. I'm hoping with those two teams though the rematch and or rematches will be something else, lot of talent on those two teams. And Snuka vs RVD I hope goes to the third match and I hope its a complete world class war. Thanks very much for your kind words and for being a part of this! P.S. I am slowly catching up on your Legends fed - but I'm still in 2009. Love the territory approach - makes me think of looking through the top ten in each territory that used to be in Pro Wrestling Illustrated. But I will get there man. Thanks for checking out my fed as well. There is a lot to read so take your time I hope you enjoy it. My fed has evolved a lot over the years so expect some twists and turns as it will be a bumpy ride  |

Looking forward to it all my friend! |

Month 1 Card 7 - Match Results:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Johnny Valiant vs Road Warrior Hawk:
Road Warrior Hawk pins Johnny Valiant via his FLYING CLOTHESLINE finisher...
Road Warrior Hawk absolutely decimated Johnny Valiant and did so very quickly. Several Forearm Pummels turned into several Running Clotheslines and all of that set up Hawk's FLYING CLOTHESLINE finisher which was executed on a total highlight reel level. As Hawk's hand was raised in victory by the referee, from his ringside seat, Precious Paul Ellering lit a fresh cigar, took a triumphant puff and said to no-one in particular...World Championship...here we come...as the smoke crept out of his mouth...
Road Warrior Hawk - Rating = ( + 50 )
Johnny Valiant - Rating = ( - 50 )
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tommy Rich & Blackjack Mulligan vs Kevin Sullivan & One Man Gang:
Tommy Rich & Blackjack Mulligan defeated Kevin Sullivan & One Man Gang via submission, One Man Gang tapped out to Tommy Rich's secondary finisher - WILDFIRE SLEEPER...
Blackjack Mulligan and One Man Gang dominated the action for the first half of the match as they pounded and slammed each other both inside and outside the ring. The difference in this match was how Mulligan and Rich cut the ring in half, keeping the demonic and disturbed looking Sullivan out of the fray as well as wearing down The Gang. Mulligan and The Gang both beat each others faces open but when Mulligan tagged out to Tommy Rich, Rich took the remaining fight out of him by being just too agile and precise. The Gang took an impressive amount of punnishment, but he could never make the hot tag he needed to...
Rich & Mulligan - Rating = ( + 46 )
Sullivan & One Man Gang - Rating = ( - 46 )
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Giant Baba vs Yukon Eric:
Giant Baba pins Yukon Eric via his NECKBREAKER DROP finisher...
Giant Baba was just a little more agile than Yukon Eric and he used that often to counter Eric's power moves at every step, but he just couldn't pin him. Eric's sheer willpower was so impressive even the largely pro Baba crowd was starting to sway. Eric kicked out of two Russian Leg Sweep pinning combinations as well as Baba's NECKBREAKER DROP. Then Yukon Eric stormed back on the offensive with a Body Block Into The Turnbuckle pinning combination that no-one saw coming and then clamped on his finisher - KODIAK KRUNCH an Over The Shoulder Backbreaker. The backbreaker came within a hair of forcing Baba to submit but at the last minute, he was able to hook his foot around the top rope while Eric was trying to finish him off by shaking him up and down. These two...crippled in pain...now stared at each other in mutual respect and locked up collar and elbow once again...but now Baba took command with a Boot To The Face which set up his NECKBREAKER DROP for the pinfall. Giant Baba helped Yukon Eric to his feet and the two shook hands and could be seen saying - Good Match to each other...
Giant Baba - Rating = ( + 38 )
Yukon Eric - Rating = ( - 38 )

What a match between Giant Baba and Yukon Eric, that was awesome. I also enjoyed the tag match and that was quite a win for Rich and Mulligan over Sullivan and OMG. Cool to see Road Warrior Hawk with a squash win in the opener. Good stuff, looking forward to more action.

Going to echo the sentiments already presented by our friends, cruefan68 and TTX... Thoroughly enjoyed that closing bout with Baba and Eric really pushing each other... And Gotcha vs Sheik should be a memorable encounter... Hoping Sheik doesn't get carried away (and DQ'd) too soon... Awesome stuff, as always! |

It was an interesting card - especially that Baba / Eric match, there were times when it really could have gone either way, but those were the main momentum shifting moments for sure. I'm a huge Giant Baba fan, but Yukon Eric won me over as well and I found myself pulling for him towards the end. Thanks again man for being a part of this! I'm hoping to have the next show ready at some point tomorrow. Dying to see how Rodz and Andre are as a team. |

More fun here, looking forward to Gotch vs Sheik. Thanks TTX! When I rolled up that booking I thought you would be jazzed at that one. I am too - hoping for an entertaining win although a squash is worth more ratings points. Either way - hoping for a Gotch win! Thanks my friend! |

Baba/Eric was a great match, one of the best if not the best so far in the league. Totally agree with you, hope The Sheik can keep it down to a low roar, it's a big hope that's for sure. Thanks brother for those kind words - am hoping to have the next card played out and posted at some point today or tomorrow. Gracias Dude! |
