This is probably one of the best top to bottom cards I've ever rolled. Long, back and forth matches with lots of exciting moments and interesting exchanges and finishes. The main event might as well have been ripped from and actual Kiel card with the way it went. I'm very happy with how the dice decided to treat this one even if there were a few people I was pulling for that didn't come out on top. Hope you enjoy reading as much as I did playing.

Hamilton Wrecking Crew vs. and Jerry Brisco, Jack Brisco
This match ended in a draw (TIME LIMIT EXPIRED) at 30:00
Match Rating: 4.50
Match Notes: The Tolos brothers bested the Briscos their last time out, but Jack Brisco handily defeated John Tolos in singles competition. This meeting could set up a rubber match or see the Hamilton Wrecking Crew in line for a tag shot.
Chris and Jerry started things off and put on a chain wrestling clinic. Eventually, Jerry got the advantage and took Chris Tolos to school. A tag to his brother Jack gave Chris just enough time to make his own tag out to John.
The action continued in a back and forth manner with multiple near falls on all four men. A fierce double-team pounding outside the ring saw Jerry Brisco wearing the crimson mask. But Jerry rallied back and dodged a charge into the corner that saw Chris Tolos hit the post and come up covered in blood, too.
Jack and John were fighting fiercely, and it looked like the Oklahoman might have Tolos, but the action spilled outside once again as their bloodied brothers recuperated on the ring apron.
The time-keeper's bell rang, and the ref consulted with him to call the match a time limit draw. The four men barely restrained themselves from fighting on, but the effects of a fast-paced, stiff 30 minutes marked these men. This isn't over.
Buddy Rogers vs. Johnny Valentine
Johnny Valentine defeated Buddy Rogers with an ATOMIC SKULLCRUSHER at 19:00
Match Rating: 4.00
Match Notes: These two have been on a collision since Thanksgiving Thunder. The past month has seen a lot of talk, a lot of posturing, and a couple of punches thrown.
Valentine started strong, but Rogers took it and returned it with a slap in the face. Valentine didn't take too kindly to that and beat Rogers down with a huge forearm hammer. Still, they battle back and forth, and even when Valentine scored a series of near falls, Rogers wouldn't stay down.
Rogers worked Valentine over and led up to a big Atomic Drop for a near fall. Valentine was resilient, though, and struck the Nature Boy with a huge chop to the chest. A pair of ATOMIC SKULLCRUSHERs opened up the forehead of Rogers, and as blood streamed down his face, Valentine hit a third finisher to score the win.
Johnny Valentine has got to be in line for a Central States title shot soon!

The Spoiler vs. Blackjack Mulligan
The Spoiler defeated Blackjack Mulligan with a BIONIC CLAW at 11:34
Match Rating: 3.25
Match Notes: This has been brewing for quite a while. Mulligan holds a victory over the Spoiler in singles action, but they've taken every opportunity to attack the other - verbally and otherwise - this past month. The Spoiler is convinced his claw hold is superior to Mulligan's. Will this match be the proof? Or will Mulligan emerge the superior and a legit title contender?
Blackjack was off to a roaring start, and the Spoiler was on the ropes early on. He tried to make a contest of it, but Mulligan cut him off and continued the beating.
Finally, the Spoiler took the advantage and pressed it as the two brawled in and out of the ring.
Mulligan kept coming back, but it was clear that the tables were beginning to turn. Still, Blackjack showed life and hit a pair of big lariats that rocked the Spoiler. Unable to capitalize, Mulligan whipped Spoiler into the corner and came charging in. Spoiler moved, and Mulligan hit the post head first!
BIONIC CLAW! Mulligan might be out! The ref calls the match! The Spoiler has won! He refuses to release the hold until the ref warns him of a DQ.
The Spoiler triumphantly mounts the corner and raises his clawed hand as the fans boo.
Mulligan comes to in the ring, and once he gets his bearings, he goes straight for the Spoiler!
Officials pour out as well as their respective partners, Masked Superstar and Dutch Savage.
The Spoiler wins the day, but this feud may be far from finished!

Bob Orton Jr and Roddy Piper vs. Dick Hutton and Bob Roop
Bob Orton Jr defeated Dick Hutton with a SUPERPLEX at 27:28
Match Rating: 4.75
Match Notes: Thrilling and intense action characterized this bout that saw Piper and Roop square off in the ring for the first time since this feud sparked off at Black Friday.
Bob Orton Jr. made his CSW debut and looked great in the ring, though Dick Hutton made him work for every inch of the mat he took.
When Roop and Piper finally took to the ring with one another, the crowd was at fever pitch. They furiously exchanged blows and moves, with neither man holding the advantage for long.
Piper, crafty as ever, utilized some quick tags and double team maneuvers to press the advantage, and it looked like the Rowdy one's tactics would work.
Roop and Hutton weren't out of the match that easily, though. The intensity of the match kept ramping up as the brawling continued in and out of the ring. Surprisingly no cheating came into play.
Piper and Orton had just leveled Roop with a double-team delayed suplex, and it looked like Piper was going to wrap this up, but he went up top, and Roop was able to toss him and then hit his finisher for a near fall!
Roop tagged out, and Hutton took to the mat to outwrestle Hot Rod. It may have been a misstep, though. Piper came back and made a crucial tag to Orton. The Ace came in and dismantled Hutton. He then hit the SUPERPLEX to score a 1, 2, 3 as Piper knocked Roop from the apron.
Piper then signaled to Orton, and Orton got Hutton up for a piledriver... Piper came off the second rope driving Hutton into the mat! The fans cheered this brutal act, seeing it as comeuppance for Hutton and Roop's attacks on Piper.
Mildred Burke vs. Lelani Kai
for the NWA Central States Women's Championship
Mildred Burke defeated Lelani Kai with an ALLIGATOR CLUTCH at 12:03
Match Rating: 3.50
Match Notes: Penny Banner hand-picked Mildred Burke to face Leilani Kai for her NWA Central States Women's Title.
Kai, naturally, was flanked by Martin and Shade, the Glamour and the Hammer. Burke was unphased by the seconds the champ brought to the ring and this thing kicked off with an intense pace.
Kai controlled the early going, but it didn't take long for Burke to take advantage of a misstep and begin to pick apart the champ.
Burke applied the ALLIGATOR CLUTCH for a near fall. Martin and Shade attempted to interfere, one distracting the referee and the other going after Burke. Burke was only too ready and sent Shade crashing into the guardrail.
It was enough, however, to get Kai back into the match. They see-sawed as Burke looked to grab the advantage again, but Kai kept cutting her off.
Finally, a huge lariat out of the corner scored another near fall for and then the ALLIGATOR CLUTCH for a decisive pinfall victory to claim the title!
The Glamour & the Hammer are none too happy about the outcome and are clearly looking to take the fight to the new champ... But Sue "Tex" Green and Joyce Grable make the save!
Mildred Burke won the NWA Central States Women's Championship
Bobby Shane vs. Danny Hodge
for the NWA Central States Middleweight Championship
Danny Hodge defeated Bobby Shane with an OKLAHOMA SIDE ROLL at 22:52
Match Rating: 3.75
Match Notes: Danny Hodge meant business from the get-go. Tired of Shane's antics in baiting him into this title match, he took out his frustrations for the better part of the match.
Shane had moments and definitely wasn't going to go down like a chump. He made Hodge work for it and had the champ on the ropes a few times - even scoring a near fall.
But, at the end of the day, it was Danny Hodge taking Shane to the woodshed. He survived a whip into the post on the outside, and a couple of loaded knee smashes. But after working over Shane's back with multiple Boston Crabs, stretching him with abdominal stretches, and rocking him knee lifts, he met Shane on the outside and whipped him from pillar to post, rolled him in, and scored the win with the OKLAHOMA SIDE ROLL.

Flying Redheads vs. The Kangaroos
for the NWA Central States Tag Team Championship
Roy Heffernan defeated Red Bastien with a BOOMERANG at 24:00
Match Rating: 4.00
Match Notes: This was a great tag team bout. Before it was all said and done, both Bastien and Heffernan wore the crimson mask.
Bastien and Heffernan started the match off, and it was clear the Kangaroos were going to do whatever it took to keep their belts. Even without Red Berry and ringside, they took advantage of the Texas Death Match stipulations to bend the rules at every turn.
The Redheads were able to give as good as they got, though. In fact, Lyons waffled Heffernan with a chair to bust him open and prevent a pinfall on his partner.
Bastien and Lyons looked great with some amazing double-teaming and were relentless in looking for the win. The Kangaroos came back, though, and Bastien was busted open after a vicious double-team pummeling using a chain!
Despite the mutual rule-bending and sheer brutality of parts of this match, there was a lot of excellent wrestling. There is no doubt that these are two of the very best teams in the Central States.
The finishing stretch of the match saw Lyons make a hot tag to Bastien. Bastien took the fight to Heffernan and wore him down by stretching him every which way. A well-timed reversal and tag by Heffernan changed the match's fortunes in a blink of the eye, and Costello worked over Bastien's cut and wore him down with the Greek Cross. A tag and a BOOMERANG later, Costello dropped Lyons, and Heffernan scored the 1, 2, 3 for the win.
Red Berry ran out to celebrate the title defense with his boys as Lyons tended to Bastien as they faced defeat...

Rikidozan defeated Lou Thesz with a DQ at 29:19
Match Rating: 4.25
Match Notes: Rikidozan captured the NWA Central States Heavyweight Championship from Harley Race to secure a shot at the richest prize in the game held by Lou Thesz. Thesz and Rikidozan are no strangers to one another, and it showed as both men were able to soak up massive amounts of punishment and still flip the tide of battle due to their scouting of the other.
Thesz commanded the early part of the match and even scored a near fall with a GRECO ROMAN BACKDROP in the early going! He pressed his advantage, but Rikidozan showed signs of life frequently. Still, Thesz was able to put him away with a series of big dropkicks after wearing him down with an STF.
Rikidozan came back in the second fall and pummeled the champ with a series of chops and slams. Thesz was reeling but still managed to survive one series of THUNDEROUS CHOPS. Not so for the second round.
Evened at one fall apiece, the next 15 minutes of action were marked by intensity and stiffness. Tensions were cranked up, and the action spilled outside. Both men brawled around the ringside area and took some liberties -risking DQ. Rikidozan was bleeding, and soon Thesz joined him!
Back inside, Rikidozan began stretching the champ and had him in agony with the use of his dreaded HIPLOCK. Lou Thesz, ever resilient, battled back and punished the challenger after a ref bump.
Things reached a fever pitch when Thesz charged Rikidozan in the corner, the challenger moved, and Thesz tumbled from the ring.
Rikidozan went out, and Thesz, covered in blood, was at Rikidozan's mercy. The ref went to check on Thesz, but he mistook him for Rikidozan and clocked him! Realizing his mistake, he went after the challenger, who met him blow for blow. When the ref came to, they were still going at it, but he called for the bell and DQ'd Thesz!!! The crowd cheered Rikidozan's victory but was hot at the lack of a title change due to the DQ.
What a great night of wrestling!
