Live from ARCO Arena, Sacramento, CA!

George "The Animal" Steele d. S. D. Jones via submission after a FLYING HAMMERLOCK - * - Of note in this match is that STEELE was accompanied to the ring by CAPTAIN LOU ALBANO who seems to have taken the unpredictable ANIMAL under his wing. STEELE picks up a quick win against S.D. JONES.

Missing Link d. Koko B. Ware via countout when WARE begins chasing LOU ALBANO after he interferes - ** - WARE was on his way to a win when LOU ALBANO interfered on LINK'S behalf and WARE began chasing him around ringside, earning himself a countout loss in the process.

MILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION d. KILLER BEES via submission Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase locked B. Brian Blair in the MILLION DOLLAR DREAM - ** - Good back and forth match that saw all four men involved in decent action. MILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION pick up the win and continue their winning streak.

LOSER MUST BOW TO WINNER
STREET FIGHT MATCH
King Harley Race d. One Man Gang with a pinfall after an AMAZING suplex - ***** - ONE MAN GANG was so close to winning several times, but the true spirit of the former champion shone through and he proved tonight why he is the King! After the match, ONE MAN GANG did bow but when he stood after he attacked RACE from behind sending the King and HEENAN scurrying out of the ring.

HANDICAP MATCH
Andre The Giant d. Mr. Perfect via DQ when MR. PERFECT throws a chair at ANDRE - * - Seconds into this match ANDRE had the upper hand. He threw PERFECT out of the ring and when ANDRE went after him, PERFECT threw a chair right at ANDRE'S head! The ref called for the bell immediately and the fans booed loudly as HEENAN and PERFECT left ringside in a hurry.

GULAG ELIMINATION MATCH

3. Hillbilly Jim d. Nikolai Volkoff via pinfall after a quick rollup
4. Iron Sheik d. Hillbilly Jim via pinfall after a single leg lariat

FIRST BLOOD MATCH
Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka d. King Kong Bundy via stoppage when BUNDY is burst open after a SUPERFLY LEAP - **1/2 - JIMMY SNUKA finally get his payback against BUNDY for injuring him as he picks up a big win in this match! BUNDY had some offense, but not much. The match was almost all SNUKA! Fans cheered SNUKA loudly when he won and BUNDY hobbled, bloody, to the back with HEENAN after the match.

WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
THE ROAD WARRIORS d. MIDNIGHT EXPRESS via pinfall after Road Warrior Animal flattened Bobby Eaton with a POWER SLAM - ***1/2 - MIDNIGHT EXPRESS took an early offensive position but the tide quickly turned and the ROAD WARRIORS dominated for the rest of the match, effectively cutting the ring in have and refusing to allow EATON to tag. Soon it was just a matter of time before EATON was too weak to fight back and the ROAD WARRIORS continue their hold on the belts!

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
"Ravishing" Rick Rude d. "Cowboy" Bob Orton via pinfall after the RUDE AWAKENING - ***1/2 - ORTON was obviously still shaken by the attack on his father by THE MOUNTIE a few weeks ago. He was filled with rage at HEENAN for paying for the trip for THE MOUNTIE to 'visit' his father but that made him unfocused in this match and RICK RUDE was able to keep his belt! HEENAN and RUDE celebrated retaining the belt through the end of 1982 as we...

Live from WCCW Studios, Burbank, CA!

1972 MATCH OF THE YEAR
WCCW had just broken away from the the LWA. "Ravishing" Rick Rude, the LWA Champion had just been signed to an exclusive contract. The Missing Link was the current WCCW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION.  At HOMECOMING a surprise match was held to determine the Unified Champion!

050 - HOMECOMING - 05.08.2072
Missing Link vs. "Ravishing" Rick Rude
for the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Missing Link defeated "Ravishing" Rick Rude with a with a pinfall after an ATOMIC DROP
Match Rating: 5.00
Match Notes: Many predicted this would be LINK'S last match as champion. Here you had the defending LWA champion returning to the WCCW to face the man who had entered the LWA title tournament himself and lost. But those predictions turned out to be as unpredictable as the MISSING LINK himself. THis was a wild match that saw chairs, managers and just about everything but the kitchen sink involved. In the end, the LINK was able to put RUDE away.

1982 WRESTLER OF THE YEAR
"Cowboy" Bob Orton
He failed to capture the gold but had the best record of the year and some of the most exciting matches.

1982 TAG TEAM OF THE YEAR
THE ROAD WARRIORS
Though THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS had, on paper, a better record for the year, it's hard to deny the amazing force that is THE ROAD WARRIORS. They returned to the fed, captured the belts and have defended them against all comers. It'll be interesting to see what new challenges face THE ROAD WARRIORS in 1983

1982 MANAGER OF THE YEAR
Bobby "The Brian" Heenan
Scheming and unpopular, you can't argue with his successes. He's the manager of the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION and has led his man to retaining that title for months.

Promoter Note: As 1982, finishes a quick note. The whole thing of changing the name of the fed from Golden State Wrestling to West Coast Championship Wrestling was to integrate better into the Legends Wrestling Alliance experiment that a few promoters and I tried a few years ago. The LWA disbanded pretty shortly after but I kept the WCCW name. Now that we are at year’s end I will be switching back to GSW because I like the smaller feel for the fed. The reason I’m saying all this is because I’m not going to bother writing out some sort of storyline about it, it’ll just be the GSW going forward.

[cruefan68]

I absolutely love this fed, looking forward to what is coming next!

CARD 1983.066

Live from Golden State Wrestling Studios, Burbank, CA!

Koko B. Ware d. Mister X via pinfall after the GHOSTBUSTER. - SQUASH - Short and sweet here and a nice win for Ware who's been floundering as of late.

MILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION d. THE BUSHWHACKERS via submission when Ted DiBiase locked Luke in the MILLION DOLLAR DREAM - ** - Not quite the impressive debut the BUSHWHACKERS had hoped for as DiBiasie and Virgil make short work of the duo from down under.

Missing Link d. Hillbilly Jim via pinfall after a falling headbutt - ** - Decent match between these two but the former champ, Link was able to get the upper hand.

DREAM TEAM d. THE BOLSHEVIKS via DQ when Boris Zhukov whipped Greg Valentine into the guardrails despite the ref's warning. - ** - This was a good back and forth match with both teams coming close to winning several times. When the action spilled outside, however, all bets were off.

BILL APTER'S HOT SEAT
First out were GSW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS - THE ROAD WARRIORS with Paul Ellering. Pretty standard promo here. They did mention they were eager to see who Commissioner Patrick lined up for a title shot next. When asked about newcomers, THE BUSHWHACKERS all three men laughed and asked if they'd seen their match earlier in the evening.

Next out was GSW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION - "Ravishing" Rick Rude along with Bobby "The Brian" Heenan. Apter wanted to ask Heenan about tonight's main event, but Rude would have none of it. He said he was the champ and he is the end all be all story here in GSW. Like THE ROAD WARRIORS he said he was looking forward to finding out who his next opponent will be. Apter asked if he was worried it'd be Andre The Giant. Rude said no because Andre is a rookie and hasn't "proven himself yet." This drew a rousing chorus of boos from the crowd, but Rude shrugged them off and left.

Heenan turned to follow Rude and Apter reminded he needed to stay out here for tonight's main event. Heenan tried his best to leave, but he met Andre The Giant on his way out! Heenan ran back into the interview area and as Andre advanced, he dashed into the small cage set up at ringside. Once inside, he slammed the door shut and screamed for it to be raised. Andre laughed and just then he was attacked from behind by Mr. Perfect! The two battled towards the ring and Perfect dashed inside. As Andre climbed in, the bell rang and we were ready for our MAIN EVENT!

MAIN EVENT
HEENAN SUSPENDED IN A CAGE MATCH
Andre The Giant d. Mr. Perfect by pinfall after a brutal BIG SPLASH! - *1/2 - This one was short and sweet! Even though Perfect had the upper hand at the start, Andre soon regained the advantage and it was over in minutes! After the match, Andre signaled for the cage to be lowered and Heenan begged for them not to lower it. Heenan realized the keys were still in the lock and he got them loose and threw them down to Mr. Perfect who was just getting to his feet. Perfect ran off. Andre looked flummoxed as the cage hit the bottom and Heenan shouted there'd be no way he could get his hands on him. Andre looked down at the lock, smiled and RIPPED it right off. He flung wide the cage door and grabbed a petrified Heenan! He drug him to the ring and to the delight of the studio audience, gave him a huge BIG SPLASH!

The crowd went nuts and Andre waved to them all as we...

Goodnight fans!
