ULWL Card 04 – “The Pursuit of Excellence” – Legends Arena, The City of Creativity
Sheepherders (Butch Miller & Luke Williams) v. The Taylors (Chaz Taylor & Tugboat Taylor) Williams and Miller in and out against Tugboat . . . no success. Kick in corner from Miller, double thrust to throat . . . Chaz Taylor tags. Suplex countered, knee drives to body countered, whip to corner, Chaz Taylor charges in . . .
The Taylors win with a running corner splash to Miller
Complaints to Dollar that shoulder was up, decision stands!
Shocking ending to the opener just as the action was getting going.
Sinn Bodhi v. Blue Meanie Heat for Bodhi, dancing headlocks, back rake . . . Meanie to one knee, Bodhi hooks him . . .
Sinn Bodhi wins with TALLULAH BELLE
Meanie does not show up for this one and Bodhi gets an easy victory.
Bruiser Brody v. Curt Hennig Hennig is confident, Brody is barking! . . . cocky slap to the face . . .OMG! again! DEATHWISH?? Hennig controls, dropkicks, forearm hammers, Brody with punches, another slap to the face! A fourth one! Brody with twisting vertical suplex, Hennig to the floor . . . Brody outside, grabs his chain . . .
Curt Hennig wins via disqualification when Brody chokes him out with a chain
Hennig just escapes to gets on his bike, Brody in pursuit . . . Roaring!
Hennig gets into the head of Brody and it results in a painful victory. Brody need to find a way to reign it in if he wants to start collecting victories rather than stitches.
Ted DiBiase v. Rob Van Dam DiBiase gets into the face of Morgan Dollar, cash offer? Dollar not impressed . . .Van Dam with punches, standing moonsault for two, brawl on the floor . . . captured by Dr. Mike Lano . . . Back inside . . .

Harley Race wins with a PILEDRIVER.
Rogers stumbles back to his feet claiming he kicked out at three and many at ringside agree but the decision stands and Race is your winner. Expected this one to go longer but Race gets the controversial decision after some intense back and forth action. Perhaps next time, Rogers will learn not to get under the official’s skin. . . but I highly doubt it.
Original Midnight Express (Dennis Condrey & Randy Rose) w/Rock Riddle & King Kong Bundy v. Road Warriors (Hawk & Animal) w/Paul Ellering Strict instructions from Morgan Dollar despite the extra bodies at ringside . . . Condrey and Animal countering several moves, assisted abdominal stretch from Express slows it down . . . Animal bails but trips over Dr. Mike Lano . . . Rose is all over Animal with stomps, Hawk arrives to break it up! Dollar prevents a complete breakdown . . . back in side, ROSE BOMB for two. Condrey in . . . elbow slingshot.

Hawk with vertical suplex, rebound into back elbow, another back elbow smash, vertical suplex, dropkick, another vertical suplex, double clothesline from Warriors, gut wrench suplex from Hawk. Hawk hooks the leg, Condrey distracts Dollar. DOOMSDAY DEVICE! Condrey jumps into the action starting a wild brawl. Ellering, Bundy and Riddle are involved. Clotheslines for everyone from the Warriors! DOOMSDAY DEVICE . . . Riddle distracts Dollar!!! OMG ROSE MUST BE DEAD! Hawk traps Rose in an over-the-shoulder backbreaker . . .Bundy is in the ring. Hawk and Animal toss him to the floor! Animal lifts Rose onto his shoulders for the third time . . .
Road Warriors win with a DOOMSDAY DEVICE to Randy Rose
What an outing for the Road Warriors who overcame several moments of outside interference and destruction to soundly thrash the Original Midnight Express. The Express had their opportunity early in the match and just could not capitalize.
ULWL Title Match – Jimmy Snuka [ch] v. Lou Thesz Handshakes . . . cheers! Thesz works Snuka into head scissors, Snuka out, chop misses, knee kick blocked, Snuka with piledriver! Vicious chop connects this time, Snuka grabs a headlock, backbreaker follows , another and another . . . Thesz takes a breather . . . Snuka dives over the top onto Thesz! Thesz catches him . . . OMG THROUGHT THE TABLE!!! Back in the ring . . . Thesz sends Snuka into the ropes . . .
Lou Thesz wins the title with a THESZ PRESS.
The count from Morgan Dollar seems a bit fast. Clearly the official wanted this one to end in the ring. OVERALL Things started out slow but the intensity really picked up in the second half of the show including a wild ending to the main event featuring a crazy table spot. Standouts tonight are Warriors/Express, Brazil/George and Thesz/Snuka. Storyline wise, the main event for the next card has been set as the Road Warriors have earned themselves the first opportunity at ULWL Tag Team Champions The Fantastics and that encounter will headline card 5. The real story unfortunately tonight was some controversial officiating in several bouts including the main event where a seemingly fast count put the title around the waist of Lou Thesz. Thesz for his part recognized the controversial nature of his win and immediately offered a rematch to Snuka on card 6. Similarly, Buddy Rogers has challenged Harley Race to a return match after falling victim to what he considers an improper three count. The Sheepherders have the same complaint as well so we may see them in action against the Taylor family soon.

Great to see Lou Thesz capture the gold, but even cooler to see him offer a rematch to Jimmy Snuka. What a tag bout between The Express & The Warriors, sounded like a demilitarized zone there for a bit. Also enjoyed when Brody finally got Hennig outside the ring and "choked the slap" out of him lol. Next card and the horizon look stellar!

Road Warriors win the ULWL Tag Team Titles with a small package to Bobby Fulton by Road Warrior Animal
Great tag team action to close out the night in a match that featured just about everything including a shocking finish.
Overall The bell to bell action tonight was heavy on mayhem, blood and chaos. The highlight for me was the main event which could have gone either way right until the finish which came out of nowhere. Another big moment was the stunned reaction of the fans after Albano’s incredible victory. The was quite the debut for competitor from Sicily.
Storyline wise, tonight was not heavy on plot movement but it appears that the conflict between Sinn Bodhi and Blue Meanie is essentially over. While the issue between the teams of the Sheepherders and the Taylors might be just getting started with each team have on victory over the other and looking forward to the rubber match in the near future. Another big story is the continual fall of Bruiser Brody who at one point was booked to be part of a main event tag team feud with the Road Warriors along side Jimmy Snuka. That program never finalized largely in part to Snuka winning the ULWL title and Brody has struggled since. Will we see Brody seek bloody revenge on his recent opponents or will he pack up and head back to Japan?

Wow. I was suprised that Bobby Heenan gave Randy Savage such problems and considered that a huge upset. I'm speechless with Albano beating Brody. That was a brain melting moment. I'm predicting that Brody comes way back from this and starts tearing through the competition. For some reason I can even see him teaming with Van Dam, although I have never paired them up before myself. But In your fed bookerbill for some reason I see that. Amywho, however it all plays out - you have quite a rockin fed my friend!

Lou Thesz wins the second fall with a stepover toehold facelockWhat an epic battle. Had it been only one fall, Jimmy Snuka would be a two time champion but instead Thesz makes up for a slow start and dominates the final fall to retain the title. OverallIn the ring, certainly the argument can be made that this was a two-match show with the main event and the tag team encounter between Midnight Express and the team of Bobo Brazil & Hacksaw Jim Duggan being the must see encounters. That is not to say that Savage v. George and Race v. Hennig are not worth a second look but they were not at the same level as the main event and the tag team war. Storyline wise, we saw Randy Savage get his win back from Bobby Heneen in devastating fashion. Plus the Sheepherders took the rubber match against the Taylors in a very short encounter. The Taylors were anything but pleased and demanded a rematch. Trouble is brewing between the Midnight Express and the combination of Bobo Brazil & Hacksaw Jim Duggan. Lots of action tonight that impacts the rankings as everyone struggles to claim the number one contenders spot. Speaking of contenders, does the Superfly deserve another shot at the gold? Thoughts anyone?

Overall
In ring, the Original Midnight Express and the team of Bobo Brazil & Hacksaw Jim Duggan continue to impress on a nightly basis and their match is one to go out of your way to see. The contest between Buddy Rogers & Jimmy Snuka is also worth checking out along with the opening contest between Nikolai Volokff and Harley Race which was fun as well.
Storyline wise, the battle between the Taylors and the Sheepherders continues to simmer during the undercard. Fans are waiting for the intensity to boil over at some point with the apparent injury to Butch Miller, things may go to the next level shortly. As well, the battles between the Original Midnight Express and the team of Hacksaw Jim Duggan & Bobo Brazil have gained a lot of attention largely due to the in ring qualify and intensity. Both sides have to be considered top contenders for the ULWL Tag Team Titles especially considering the disappointing outing tonight for the Fantastics. On the singles side, there was certainly some frustration shown by Ted DiBiase tonight in his controversial loss to Randy Savage and a rematch should be forth coming. As well, Diamond Dallas Page will be looking to get back into the ring with Gorgeous George. The real story is taking place behind closed doors at this point as the ULWL Championship Committee is looking long and hard at the list of contenders in an effort to determine who will challenge Champion Lou Thesz next. Jimmy Snuka is a former champion and proven he remains a contender with his win tonight. Rob Van Dam looked impressive tonight and would make an interesting challenge for the Thesz in a clash of styles. Randy Savage may have gotten away with one tonight but his record is still solid and he is certainly deserving of a title shot. Finally, Harley Race is a tough as they come and also has an impressive record.

Hey bookerbill! Outstanding stuff on all levels. When it comes to top contenders for Lou Thesz's title, I would say (IMO), The Superfly should get the first crack at it. And Harley Race right behind him. But however it shakes out, its going to be a real event. Really enjoy the backstory section giving us a recap of what's brewing. Great stuff!
