Ooooh...I was so close to perfection!!! Sadly the main event had to end that way but there always a possibility of a rematch.
Here are crazy guesses for the next event:
Harley Race & Larry Hennig
for the LCW Universal Tag Team Championship
Non-title match: Killer Kowalski
Nick Bockwinkel & Ray Stevens
No Holds Barred:Abdullah the Butcher
Adrian Street
Butcher & Mad Dog Vachon
Gorgeous George

And who could've seen Valentine vs. Bockwinkel ending like it did? I just made a minor correction to the card lineup... Poffo vs. Abdullah is actually a Hardcore Street Fight... I'm sure that won't change your prediction since that kinda match is right up the Butcher's alley... HA! |

I really enjoyed the latest shows and I'm psyched to see who will be the first LCW tag champs. Both Bastien & Crusher and Hennig & Race are fine teams so it's hard to pick but I'll go with Hennig & Race.
Nick Bockwinkel walking off was crazy! I think Bock needs "The Brain" in his corner. Though it was a disappointing finish I do like that Johnny Valentine extended his title reign.

Very cool to see Johnny Valentine win the gold, although I would have like to see Bobo Brazil with a longer title reign. JV retaining in the rematch was good and it will be interesting to see who he faces next. I loved that six man tag on card #8 and the slick way we got to a Larry Hennig & Harley Race pairing. I love seeing old school teams revived so I'm hoping to see good things from Hennig & Race. Butcher Vachon with a huge win over The Crusher. I also liked that Adrian Street-J.J. Dillon pairing in the opener. When I first started watching wrestling regularly in the early 80's I remember Dillon briefly managing Street in Florida. I was fortunate enough to see Florida wrestling on TV even here in the northeast where it was carried on Tuesday nights on a local Spanish language station. JV makes an excellent champion - He was your first LOW World Heavyweight champ, I believe... Even though I agree that a longer reign for Brazil would have been pretty sweet... His time will come around again, have no doubt. What I like about that Race / Hennig pairing was that it came about so naturally... I'm a little over halfway through this first tour and I plan on crowning my inaugural tag champs in the near future... Expecting this duo will be a part of the scene. Always a great pleasure to read your input, my friend... Appreciate you taking the time to check in, as always... Truth! I forgot to answer this one. JV was actually my second champ. The inaugural champion was Frank Gotch but you were close! |

Though it was a disappointing finish I do like that Johnny Valentine extended his title reign. Bockwinkel would definitely benefit from a 'Brain' in his corner... Unfortunately, Bobby Heenan (just like Lou Albano and J.J. Dillon) will have to punch his time as an in-ring performer before he takes the managerial helm... A minor side effect of playing this fed the way I am. Totally stoked that you're enjoying the action, my friend... Big things on the horizon, including the crowning of my inaugural tag champs... Fun times! |

With a Vintage themed set scheduled for next year, I'm really hoping Gotch finally gets released in color. |

And yeah, I think Saint vs. Street should make for a fun program... Two guys that I think will do really well in the cruiserweight division that I plan to start at some point. Look like some solid picks too... Race & Hennig appear to be heavy favorites heading into the tag title match... Should have some results posted soon! |

LEGENDARY CHRONICLES WRESTLING
For Every Action Tour (card #11)
01.Mar.21 - Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, PA
GORGEOUS GEORGE (w/ Cherie Dupre) def. Mike DiBiase via submission at 6:24.
- George finished DiBiase with a SPINNING TOEHOLD. A perfectly timed distraction by Cherie saved George from near certain defeat after DiBiase landed a TOP ROPE KNEE TO BACK. After picking up a controversial victory, George accused management of holding him back and promised to claim his rightful place in the main event. -- Tokens: George 3 - DiBiase 2
JOE BLANCHARD & LOU ALBANO def. Butcher & Mad Dog Vachon via submission at 14:35.
- Blanchard finished Butcher <snake eyes> with an ABDOMINAL STRETCH. The Vachons were in a foul mood after dropping an important decision to Red Bastien and The Crusher on the last show that knocked them out of the running to become the inaugural LCW Universal Tag Team Champions. Butcher became obsessed with punishing Albano, ignoring several shouts from Mad Dog to tag him into the match. Albano made a hot tag to Blanchard, who tore into both opponents like a man on fire. Blaming his brother for the loss, Mad Dog criticized Butcher for failing to remain focused. A heated dispute rapidly turned into a wild brawl. Mad Dog grabbed a steel chair and repeatedly struck Butcher until he was unable to stand. When it became obvious that Butcher needed medical attention, Mad Dog spit on the floor and said he was on his own. <Butcher injured for 1 card.> -- Tokens: Blanchard 2, Albano 2 - Butcher 3, Mad Dog 1
ADRIAN STREET (w/ Pampero Firpo) def. Johnny Saint via pinfall at 12:03.
- Street finished Saint with a neckbreaker. Saint's recent slump continued as Firpo provided a valuable assist by grabbing onto his legs to prevent him from kicking out of a tight pinning combination. Street labelled his newly formed bond with Firpo as a tribute to Beauty and the Beast. The two men laughed at Saint, saying he appeared to be a little short on friends. -- Tokens: Street 2 - Saint 3
- Upon reaching the backstage area, Saint was met by Billy Red Lyons. The two men agreed to work together to teach Street and Firpo some manners.
Hardcore Street Fight
ANGELO POFFO def. Abdullah the Butcher via pinfall at 1:11.
- Poffo finished Abdullah <snake eyes> with a timekeeper's bell smash. Without hesitation, Poffo revealed that he could overcome Abdullah's vile nature with some savage tactics of his own. Bull Curry rushed the ring and attacked Poffo after the bell. Moments later, Bob Armstrong joined the fight and security was needed to pull the men apart. In order to resolve this intense rivalry, a final No Holds Barred encounter was scheduled for the last show of the tour with the added stipulation that the losing team would be exiled from the company. -- Tokens: Abdullah 1
NICK BOCKWINKEL & RAY STEVENS def. Ivan Koloff & The Destroyer via pinfall at 5:41.
- Bockwinkel & Stevens finished Destroyer with an illegal double team assault while the referee was busy escorting Koloff back to the apron after he broke up a near fall. Koloff managed to find a talented partner to help him continue his war with Bockwinkel and Stevens, but their inexperience as a team proved to be a major problem. Working like a cohesive unit, Bockwinkel and Stevens exploited this weakness with relative ease. -- Tokens: Koloff 2, Destroyer 4
KILLER KOWALSKI def. Johnny Valentine via submission at 10:28.
- Kowalski finished Valentine with a KOWALSKI CLAW. Declaring that no one had accomplished more during the first half of the tour, Kowalski tried to convince management that he deserved a title shot. As a compromise, he was granted this non-title match against the LCW Universal Heavyweight Champion. Both men pulled out all the stops in this aggressive seesaw battle. Kowalski countered a back suplex by with a jab to the eyes and Valentine was unable to recover in time to avoid being trapped in the middle of the ring. -- Tokens: Kowalski 3 - Valentine 4
LCW Universal Tag Team Championship Match
HARLEY RACE & LARRY HENNIG def. Red Bastien & The Crusher via pinfall at 14:50.
- Race finished Crusher with a VERTICAL SUPLEX. This contest nearly reached a premature conclusion when the referee disqualified both teams for accidentally bumping him into a corner. Management advised there must be a winner and the match was restarted. Bastien was virtually removed from the equation after a wicked shoulder breaker by Race left him crumpled on the apron. Despite some fierce determination, Crusher eventually folded under the relentless onslaught. In a display of mutual respect, the two teams shook hands after the bell. -- Tokens: Race 2, Hennig 3 - Bastien 1, Crusher 6
HARLEY RACE & LARRY HENNIG won the LCW Universal Tag Team Championship.
