I'm predicting a win & a long title reign for Gotch. But I could be wrong, I still don't have the new cards so I have no idea how strong his--or anyone's--stats are. I can only guess. Still no new cards? Gotch's card is a little better than his old one.

No new cards, no new TV Guide & no new checks from the bank. I get all the bills & junk mail, but I haven't get anything I've ordered.

I'm predicting a win & a long title reign for Gotch. But I could be wrong, I still don't have the new cards so I have no idea how strong his--or anyone's--stats are. I can only guess. You could see Hacks Card a bit stronger than his old one. But im not that sure about the Finisher

It was one of my best matches in recent memory. I'm glad Rikidozan held on to the belt.

Superb main event... Both men looked really strong... Great to see Rikidozan building a solid run as champ.
Hoping that Lightning Rod Fenton can find his groove before too long... Fun stuff, as always!

Fun stuff, as always! I didn't know how that main event was going to turn out. Rikidozan has never had more than 5 successful title defenses with me with any belt so I'm hoping he changes that during this reign.
