Thanks. Not too far from what He-Beast is supposed to be....He-Man, Conan and BeastMaster. Yea I forgot about BeastMaster. Loved that movie. Also enjoyed Thundaar as a kid and feel it does not get enough respect. Other than the name change I will keep the card as you have it and will just be adding a valet, Ariel. |

4/1/80 Reno, NV - card #9
The opening video then we are live. We see the fans then an Elvis impersonator in the ring strumming a guitar and shaking his hips for the crowd. Next the camera shows the announcer's desk.
Gorilla Typhoon: We have a great show for you all tonight. Later tonight we will learn the 8 men who will be in a tournament at Wrestle Bowl to crown the inaugural RCW World Champion. Remember, if you can't be in Pasadena with us live, look for a location near you to watch it on closed-circuit TV. You will not want to miss all the hot action. Now, let's go to the ring for our opening match.
We see Bug Buster enter the ring and walk in front of the impersonator who seems upset as he wasn't finished with his performance. As the impersonator is exiting the ring the camera goes to the stage where Mean Jeans is standing as Keith Blood and his manager The Gargoyle walk out.
Mean Jeans: Mr. Blood, may I have a moment of your time? The fans want to know what brings you to RCW.
Keith Blood: Recently I was talking to the head of our brood, Count Necros, and he said he wanted some of us to travel thru the world to spread our world. Due to my athletic prowess, I choose the hottest wrestling promotion, RCW. Now, let me show you some of my immense talent.
Keith Blood w/The Gargoyle vs Bug Buster.
Buster kicked Blood's ankle to start the match and Blood just stared at him. Then Blood went to work and dominated the match. A Crucifix finally put Buster away.
Winner: Keith Blood by pinfall. (*)
As Keith Blood exited the ring the Elvis impersonator entered it and went to help Bug Buster to his feet. Bug Buster was regaining his senses when the impersonator quickly swings his guitar and smashes it over Buster's head. Buster looks stunned before falling to the mat.
Gorilla Typhoon: Whoa, what did we just see?
KC: That man just performed a smash hit.
Gorilla Typhoon: Give me a break.
--- commercials including for a couple casinos in Reno ---
The camera shows a nice home with an elegant car sitting in front of it. Standing be the car we see Rad Racer and the small Japanese we saw last week who is identified as Mr. Bonsai.
Mr. Bonsai: You have raw talent. You just need training. Your legs are strong from riding your bike so much but need to work on your arms. That is where my car comes in.
Rad Racer: You want me to wash and wax it?
Mr. Bonsai: What? No. That is stupid. How is that training. You will use my jack to lift the car over and over. Build your arm muscles up.
He walks off mumbling, "Wax it? Johnny gonna wax him with that crazy thinking".
Mighty Leo vs Tennis Pro w/Valley Girl and Ball Boy.
Valley Girl tried to distract Leo as the match started by swing some string back and forth. In a way it worked as he looked at her like she was nuts allowing Pro to attack him. For most of the match Pro controlled the action against his much larger opponent. Pro tossing Leo to the floor allowing Valley Girl and Ball Boy to stomp on him helped.
When Leo finally started to get something going Valley Girl flirted with the ref for a distraction. He fell for it for a bit. When Leo complained the ref came to his senses and sent her to the back. Tennis Pro took advantage and went on the attack. After a couple minutes he seemed to signal something to Ball Ball. As Ball Boy got on the apron to complain to the ref, Tennis Pro pulled from his pocket what seemed to be a wire from a tennis racquet and began to choke Leo. Star Boy came running out as he had seen enough. He pulled Tennis Pro off Leo and slugged him. Unfortunately, the ref saw that and called for the bell.
Winner: Tennis Pro via disqualification. (*** 1/2)
First, Star Boy tried to plead his case, explaining that Pro was choking Leo. When it didn't help, he checked on Leo and told him what happened. Leo didn't seem upset. At least not at Star Boy.
Gorilla Typhoon: What a great show so far. Tune in next week when we will be in San Francisco. It will be the last The Show before our super card, Wrestle Bowl. Speaking of Wrestle Bowl. Here are the eight men that will be trying to become the first World Champion.
A video shows the men one at a time as they make intimidating or menacing poses.
- Jet Set Strutter
- Laser
- Dark Invader
- Skullgore
- Red Pirate Rogers
- Arizona Chance
- Colbalt Commander
- Bug Buster
Gorilla Typhoon: Along with that great action Hammerhead has agreed to face Pierre. Not a bright move on his part we think. Also signed for the card, Johnny Kobra will face off with Rad Racer.
--- commercials including for Space Invaders for the Atari 2600 ---
Rad Racer is sweaty as he is jacking up the car then lowering it. He is doing it again when Mr. Bonsai walks up with a glass of water.
Mr. Bonsai: Ok, take a break. That has been an hour. Have some water. After short rest we go to my back forty to work on my fence.
Rad Racer: Yea, ok. Do you want me to paint it?
A puzzled look from Mr. Bonsai.
Mr. Bonsai: Paint it? Paint it? What, are you Tom Sawyer? We are working on your strength. It's not a picket fence. It's a barbed wire fence to keep in livestock. You will pound in fence posts and string barbed wire on them.
He walks off mumbling, "Paint? This boy might need more help than I can give".
Gorilla Typhoon: I was just informed that the Elvis impersonator who hit Bug Buster is also a part time wrestler and he has asked for a chance to wrestle Bug Buster. His name is Pelvis Pressly. I think he asked for the match to avoid any legal problems.
KC: He asked for it because that pudgy bug boy tried to steal his spotlight as Pelvis was ending his performance.
Dark Invader vs Arizona Chance.
Arizona asked for this match and it was obvious he was prepared for it. He was never really in trouble and he finished Invader off with a top-rope fist drop.
Winner: Arizona Chance by pinfall. (** 1/2)

Nice to see managers in use. I never put them to use in this game though I use them often in the phone game.
