'Feel the Bang' Enterprises is a very cool development... I can't wait to see what kind of trouble that particular trio can stir up... As we all know, DDP can be a very motivational guy and I think he will lead his crew to some GOOD THINGS, without a doubt. I agaree with Pariah on Feel the Bang Enterprises being a very cool development, it'll be fun to see where it goes...

Thanks for the comments Pariah, Crimson and Troy. The heel side in ACW has been undermanned and I wanted a major turn and DDP fit in there perfectly. I'm hoping for big things from FTB Enterprises. Coming up next is a huge night of action as always from MSG. I hope you enjoy it...
LOW Capitol Wrestling Alliance - Madison Square Garden - New York, NY (Card #1335)
1) Dalton Castle defeated Manimal (Pinfall - Deadlift German Suplex)
* A hard fought opening bout saw Dalton Castle do battle with the 300-pound Manimal of All-Star Wrestling. Castle has been out injured courtesy of the “King of Wrestling” Bobby Shane and Donovan Dijak, both of whom are now managed by The Grand Wizard of Wrestling. Castle had a lot to deal with here as Manimal used his size to counter a number of times and also dominated outside the ring. A suplex counter by Castle late led to the flamboyant star going on a strong offensive run culminating in him executing the Deadlift German Suplex to score the pin.
2) Rockin Robin defeated Allysin Kay (Pinfall - Top Rope Flying Bulldog)
* Action in the Empress Ring division featured Rockin Robin squaring off with Allysin Kay. The larger Kay based out of Detroit, MI, dominated this bout most of the way including scoring a near fall with a fallaway slam (ch) that shook up Robin. The popular Robin staged a late rally and, after a missile dropkick deathjump style, she hit a Top Rope Flying Bulldog on Kay to score the pin.
3) George Steele (with Captain Lou Albano) defeated Koko B. Ware by Count Out
* The popular “Birdman” Koko B. Ware, accompanied by his parrot Frankie, had his hands full with George “The Animal” Steele. With manager Captain Lou Albano in his corner, Steele looked to be the favorite here but Ware dominated the action. He got Steele up for the Brainbuster early but a distraction by Albano prevented a pin. Steele battled back but Ware regained control and, after hitting a second Brainbuster, it was another distraction by Albano. Ware took exception and chased after the manager at ringside which unfortunately resulted in a count out win for Steele.
4) One Man Gang, Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas (with Sir Oliver Humperdink) defeated Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson (One Man Gang pinned Hacksaw Jim Duggan - 747 Splash)
* A big trios match saw Hacksaw Jim Duggan and the Rock n’ Roll Express, Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson, take on the House of Humperdink team of the One Man Gang, Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas. Manager Sir Oliver Humperdink looked on pleased from ringside as his men put a beating on Duggan for a good stretch. Duggan is double tough, though, and he battled back and made the tag. The Rock n’ Roll Express showed off their great teamwork including keeping the larger OMG on the defensive including Morton getting a two count on him with a dropkick. A wild finishing sequence saw a six-way brawl break out after which OMG flattened Duggan with the 747 Splash to score the pin.
5) Big Van Vader defeated Baron Von Raschke (Pinfall - Bone-Crunching Splash)
* Big Van Vader was scheduled to face the “Million $ Man” Ted Dibiase but Dibiase paid off the rugged German star Baron Von Raschke to take the match instead. Vader was not pleased as a laughing “Million $ Man”, accompanied by his bodyguard Virgil, strolled to the back. This was over pretty quick as Vader countered the early offensive by Von Raschke and delivered a Bone-Crunching Splash for the pin.
6) Blackjack Mulligan & Barry Windham defeated Rick Rude & J.J. Dillon (Barry Windham over Rick Rude by Submission - Snake Eyes - Blackjack Claw)*
* This special grudge tag team match pitting Blackjack Mulligan & Barry Windham against New Age Horsemen cornerstone “Ravishing” Rick Rude and manager J.J. Dillon featured plenty of chaotic action. That included a referee bump during which Rude took a hellacious beating and was busted open. As expected, Dillon only tagged in when Rude got the advantage but managed to be effective using a foreign object on both men. The wild battle ended when Mulligan had Rude trapped in the Blackjack Claw but Dillon interfered. A tag was made and, as Mulligan chased after Dillon, it was Windham trapping the bloody Rude in his own version of the Blackjack Claw scoring a snake eyes submission victory.
It didn’t end there, however, as Rude and Dillon jumped them from behind post-match sending Mulligan out of the ring. Dillon grabbed a chair and then assisted Rude in delivering a spike piledriver to Windham on it. Windham was in serious pain as Mulligan slid back in chasing off both Rude and Dillon. Mulligan cradled his son as paramedics ran in and fit Windham with a neck brace before carrying him out on a stretcher. Mulligan was beside himself with emotion as for the second time this year his son was injured by the Horsemen.
7) Randy Savage defeated Roddy Piper (with Cowboy Bob Orton Jr.) (Pinfall - Flying Elbow Smash)
* This huge grudge match between the “Macho Man” Randy Savage and “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, accompanied by his bodyguard “The Ace” Cowboy Bob Orton Jr., featured two special guests at ringside. Announcers Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby “The Brain” Heenan, who will be hosting the brand new third hour of LOW All-Star Wrestling, were there to provide exclusive commentary as highlights of the match will be aired on the next ASW broadcast. Monsoon said “make sure to join us when we come to a town near you” to which Heenan responded “did you have to say that? Now all of the unwashed morons will come and stink up the building”. Monsoon responded, “Will you stop!” putting Heenan in his place.
Piper jumped Savage before ring announcer Gary Michael Cappetta could finish his introductions. That got things off to a hot start that carried the match to a wild finish. Piper was busted open during the bout, coming after a wicked piledriver delivered by Savage. The “Macho Man” hit the Flying Elbow Smash but referee Joey Marella was unable to count the pin as Orton hit Savage from the outside with his cast. The bloody Piper took over using a Foreign Object on Savage for a near fall. Savage would gain revenge late, taking Orton out during a battle at ringside. That led to Savage exploding on offense and, after a near fall with a knee drop, he delivered a second Flying Elbow Smash on Piper to score the pin.
8) Powers of Pain (The Warlord & The Barbarian, with Captain Lou Albano) defeated Road Warriors (Hawk & Animal, with Paul Ellering) by DQ
* The Road Warriors won their match against the Powers of Pain on the most recent edition of LOW All-Star Wrestling, forcing The Warlord and The Barbarian into a corner for this all important return match. With respective managers “Precious” Paul Ellering and Captain Lou Albano at ringside, the two powerhouse teams threw plenty of bombs in this one. The Powers of Pain hit both the Power Head Butt and Elevated Clothesline but were unable to gain a fall. The Road Warriors struck back with key moves like the double clothesline and Animal’s flying shoulder ram. The wild battle ended out at ringside when Animal, attempting to get at The Barbarian, threw down referee Dick Woehrle. That resulted in the Road Warriors being disqualified and giving the Powers of Pain a victory. The four men continued battling it out post-match resulting in a host of LOW officials and wrestlers, including Hacksaw Jim Duggan and Baron Von Raschke, having to flood ringside to get them separated.
9) LOW Trios titles: Curt Hennig, Tully Blanchard & CW Anderson© (with J.J. Dillon) defeated Dream Team (Brutus Beefcake & Greg Valentine) & Bobby Shane (with The Grand Wizard) to retain the titles (Tully Blanchard pinned Bobby Shane - Slingshot Suplex) to retain the titles
* A chaotic battle over the LOW Trios titles saw The Grand Wizard of Wrestling lead the Dream Team, Brutus Beefcake & Greg Valentine, and the “King of Wrestling” Bobby Shane into battle against the defending champions Curt Hennig, Tully Blanchard & “The Enforcer” CW Anderson of the New Age Horsemen. Manager J.J. Dillon was in the corner of the Horsemen despite the beating he took earlier. This was one heck of a match that featured outside interference but ironically from neither of the managers. Blackjack Mulligan, enraged by the injury his son suffered earlier, ran out in the heat of battle preventing Hennig from pinning Valentine with the Hennig Plex. Mulligan was ejected by the referee but took Dillon with him, chasing the manager to the back. Later on, it was Dalton Castle getting involved looking for some revenge against Shane, the man who injured him. Castle provided a distraction allowing Blanchard to catch Shane with the Slingshot Suplex for the pin. The Horsemen were successful in their version one defense of the titles while a seething Shane stared down Castle who celebrated with the fans at ringside.
10) LOW World Heavyweight title: Johnny Valentine© defeated Tyler Black to retain the title
* LOW Commissioner Teddy Long joined senior referee Morgan Dollar in the ring for this all-important championship match pitting LOW International Heavyweight champion Tyler Black against LOW World Heavyweight champion Johnny Valentine. Only the world title was at stake in this special champion vs. champion match, one rarely seen in the history of LOW. Long shook hands with both men during the introductions and then handed the world title belt to Dollar who held it up signifying the start of the match. Valentine got the early jump on Black, punishing him at every turn. A defensive corner counter by Black led to him going on a strong offensive including scoring a two count with the buckle bomb and superkick combo. The battle continued at this torrid pace until Valentine nearly won it by count out after sending Black hard into the guard rail. As Black rolled back in, Valentine pounced on him hitting two consecutive Atomic Skullcrusher’s for near falls. Black was nearly knocked out and Valentine took advantage locking on a Sleeper Hold that led to him scoring a submission victory. It was a successful version one title defense for Valentine avenging his prior loss to Black in a match for the LOW International Heavyweight title.
Injury Report:
* Barry Windham was injured at the hands of the New Age Horsemen, this time courtesy of Rick Rude and manager J.J. Dillon. Windham suffered a neck injury taking a spike piledriver on a chair and is expected to be out of action for several weeks. When local reporters confronted him backstage, an emotional Blackjack Mulligan vowed bloody revenge on the Horsemen anytime he can get his hands on them.

I'm a long time big fan of the Road Warriors, but I really liked the Powers of Pain and so seeing them win is cool stuff. So cool that the House of Humperdink won, I am a Sir Oliver fan and your HoH is cool stuff...

Vader continues to rack up the wins, but I notice that DiBiase is directly behind him in the rankings... These two are on a collision course, without a doubt... That is probably gonna spell trouble for the Million Dollar Man. Thoroughly enjoyed that violent exchange between Savage and Piper... The Macho Man scored an impressive victory and it leaves me wondering what's next for this bitter rivalry... Will Piper try to move onto an easier target? Or will he seek revenge? Also going to agree with Crimson Cross that it was pretty cool seeing the Powers of Pain defeat the Road Warriors... Especially with that technical decision adding some additional fuel to this fire... Captain Lou better keep his team focused because I am certain that Ellering will have Animal & Hawk fired up for the inevitable rematch. Great jobs by the Horsemen and Valentine on successfully defending their respective titles... Simply superb action from start to finish, my friend... And I really enjoyed your incorporation of the Heenan/Monsoon commentary card... Very nice work!

Thanks very much for the comments Crimson, Troy and Pariah. The Road Warriors vs. Powers of Pain rivalry has been very fun to roll out. Big Van Vader most definitely wants Ted Dibiase, especially after Dibiase cost him that world title match with Buddy Rogers earlier in the year. As for Savage vs. Piper, stay tuned as there will be more to come in that one. Next up we head out to Los Angeles for some PCW action. I hope you enjoy it...
LOW Pacific Coast Wrestling - Olympic Auditorium - Los Angeles, CA (Card #1336)
1) Alexander Hammerstone (with Jimmy Hart) defeated Robbie Ellis (Pinfall - Stalling Superplex)
* Veteran journeyman Robbie Ellis of All-Star Wrestling took on First Family member Alexander Hammerstone in the opening contest. With his manager Jimmy Hart vocally urging him on from ringside, Hammerstone tore through Ellis like a wrecking machine. It was pretty impressive to see and finally after a Stalling Superplex he floated over on top of Ellis for the pin while Hart blared the siren on his megaphone.
2) Leilani Kai defeated Princess Victoria (Pinfall - Running Splash)
* The popular Princess Victoria out of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, hoped to pick up a big win as she took on former Empress Ring champion Leilani Kai. The veteran Kai was on her game in this one, though, managing to prevent any sustained offensive from Victoria. After delivering a bodyslam on the floor, Kai caught Victoria with a Running Splash back inside to score the pin.
3) Jonnie Stewart defeated Adrian Quest (Pinfall - Power Slam)
* A highly competitive bout saw “Young Fuego” Adrian Quest taking on PCW newcomer the “Illustrious” Jonnie Stewart. The arrogant Stewart found himself on the defensive for a good stretch with Quest picking up near falls with a corner roll-up and running shooting star press. Stewart kicked it into gear late and, after a flying elbow smash, he caught Quest with a quick Power Slam to score the pin.
4) Rob Van Dam defeated The Spoiler (Pinfall - Counter Roll-Up)
* The electrifying Rob Van Dam, the “Whole F’N Show”, had his hands full taking on The Spoiler, a master of the Bionic Claw. This was a tough and intense battle with both men having good turns on offense. The finish came flash style as The Spoiler missed with a corner charge and RVD caught him with a quick Counter Roll-Up for the pin. It was a frustrating loss for the masked man, his first in PCW, so he will no doubt look to avenge it down the line.
5) James Gang (B.G. James & Kip James) defeated Texas Hangmen (Killer & Psycho) by DQ
* The first tag team match of the night featured the James Gang, B.G. James & Kip James, taking on the Texas Hangmen, Killer & Psycho. This was a hard hitting affair with both teams having strong offensive runs. Things broke down at the end, though, as Killer used the hangman’s noose on Kip during a battle outside the ring. That action resulted in a snake eyes disqualification call by the referee. The James Gang won it but the battle continued post-match until the Hangmen retreated to the back.
6) Empress Ring title: Mercedes Martinez© defeated Mia Yim to retain the title (Pinfall - Snake Eyes - Fisherman Buster)
* The Empress Ring championship was on the line as newly crowned champion “Latina Sensation” Mercedes Martinez faced a capable challenger in Mia Yim representing PCW. Yim, a native of San Diego, CA, was bound and determined to take the gold and that determination showed as she twice kicked out of the Fisherman Buster. Yim put forth a serious and resilient battle but Martinez was equally as determined to retain. That came when Martinez hit a third Fisherman Buster and covered Yim to score a snake eyes pin. Referee James Beard raised the hand of Martinez who was successful in her version one defense of the title.
7) Angelo Mosca defeated Jeff Cobb (Submission - Snake Eyes - Sleeper)
* This challenge match from LOW All-Star Wrestling saw “Mr. Athletic” Jeff Cobb go one-on-one with Angelo “King Kong” Mosca. A war of attrition would be the best way to describe this one with heavy blows being traded back and forth. Cobb went on a terrific offensive late capturing Mosca with a variety of power moves. A counter by Mosca led to him hitting a running clothesline that looked to knock Cobb out. Some ringsiders called out Mosca using a loaded elbow but that didn’t matter as he locked on a Sleeper putting Cobb out for a snake eyes submission win. Tugboat Taylor entered the ring to dispute the decision with the referee as Cobb recovered. Cobb and Taylor both went after Mosca but Bob Roop showed up at ringside pulling “King Kong” out to safety. Later it was learned that the four will compete in a tag team match on the next ASW broadcast.
8) LOW Tex-Arkana Television title: Dutch Savage defeated Timber to win the title (Pinfall – Running Piledriver)
* This rematch for the LOW Tex-Arkana Television title between Dutch Savage and newly crowned champion Timber, “The Insane Lumberjack”, turned into a show stealer. It almost went the distance of the fifteen-minute time limit with both men picking up big near falls, including with their finishing moves. Timber hit the Log Splitter late but somehow Savage kicked out. Savage, hoping to regain the belt before his home PCW fans, stunned Timber with the thumb to the throat. Then, with less than a minute left, he planted Timber with his second Running Piledriver of the match scoring the pin and regaining the title. Savage was crowned a two-time champion much to the delight of the fans at the Olympic.
9) Adrian Adonis, Playboy Buddy Rose, Dr. Tom Prichard & Brian Pillman Jr. (with Jimmy Hart) defeated Manny Fernandez, Damien Martinez & The Quebecers (Jacques Rougeau & Pierre Carl Oullett) (Dr. Tom Prichard pinned Manny Fernandez - Snake Eyes - Elbow Drop)*
* A big eight-man tag team match saw the unlikely foursome of the “Raging Bull” Manny Fernandez, Damien Martinez and The Quebecers, Jacques Rougeau & Pierre Carl Oullett, team up against First Family members “Golden Boy” Adrian Adonis, Playboy Buddy Rose, Dr. Tom Prichard and Brian Pillman Jr. While The Quebecers have had their issues with Rose and Prichard, Fernandez has been after Adonis and Martinez has had has one past issues with the First Family after spurning a managerial offer by Jimmy Hart. Their mutual distaste for Hart and his men was a good reason for them to unite. This was a wild bout with both teams coming close to victory. It was a fourth snake eyes decision on the night that decided it when Adonis hit Fernandez with Hart’s megaphone out of view of the referee. Prichard, who was the legal man, then hit the Dr. Tom Bomb and an Elbow Drop on Fernandez to score the pin.
A wild melee broke out post-match with Fernandez and his teammates isolating Prichard in the ring after driving Adonis, Rose and Pillman to the floor. A frantic Hart scurried around screaming through his megaphone as Martinez retrieved a table and The Quebecers put Prichard through it with the Tower of Quebec. Prichard was laid out and had to be attended to by paramedics who fitted him with a neck brace.
10) Andre the Giant & Pepper Gomez defeated Fred Blassie & Pampero Firpo by DQ
* The “Eighth Wonder of the World” Andre the Giant returned to PCW teaming up with Pepper Gomez to take on the “King of Men” Fred Blassie and the “Wild Pull of the Pampas” Pampero Firpo in a main event tag team match. The imposing Andre had his way with Blassie and Firpo several times during the match. That forced them to focus on a strategy of neutralizing Gomez hoping to pick up a victory. Gomez, however, had different ideas and took the fight to his two rivals forcing them to get desperate. This one wound up outside the ring where Blassie was disqualified when he hit Andre over the back with a chair shot. Blassie and Firpo then double-teamed Gomez until Andre recovered and cleared the ring. The crowd erupted in cheers as Andre stood tall while also helping Gomez up to his feet.
Injury Report:
* First Family member Dr. Tom Prichard is expected to be out of action for several weeks due to a neck injury he suffered at the hands of The Quebecers, Jacques Rougeau & Pierre Carl Oullett. That came after they put him through a table following an eight-man tag team match. Manager Jimmy Hart was upset over the actions of The Quebecers and both he and Playboy Buddy Rose vowed to drive the Canadian team out of PCW.

Despite being on the losing side of that big eight-man battle, I'm very pleased that my Quebecers were able get some revenge against Hart's First Family members, Playboy & Dr Tom... This is a really fun feud and I look forward to the next chapter.
Speaking of the First Family, Hammerstone looked strong in the opening match and it's great to see him climbing the ranks... I predict he will become a marquee player in the not too distant future... Congrats to both Mercedes Martinez and Dutch Savage for holding onto their respective titles... And I'm always ramped up when the Whole F'n Show is in the house... RVD! RVD! RVD!
And I've gotta wonder if that main event might have planted the seeds for another epic LOW rivalry... After all, wouldn't Andre want the chance to pick up a clean win over the King of Men? Just a thought...
Very entertaining, my friend... As always!

I wanted Timber to have a good reign with that Tex-Arkana belt, but Dutch is one tough guy and overall the Pacific Coast has some fun action going on...
