All-Star Wrestling Association

[Carlzilla]

Recently, some e-friends and I started a Legends of Wrestling NWA style draft league. I'm running the All-Star Wrestling Association as a branch of the collective.

The overarching collective, the Legends Wrestling Alliance, has a traveling world champion, Mil Mascaras as we all start our first cards.

I drafted the following wrestlers in the draft:

Johnny Valentine
Danny Hodge
Don Leo Jonathan
George Tragos
Butcher Vachon
Mad Dog Vachon
Don Curtis
Mark Lewin*
Gorilla Monsoon
Ad Santel*
The Destroyer
John Pesek

Wrestlers marked with a * are fan creations.

Don Leo Jonathan & Gordon Solie Interview Segment
Gordon Solie stops Don Leo Jonathan on his way to ring for his match with George South to ask him a few questions. Solie asks Jonathan about his thoughts on last weekend's Endurance Night tournament. Don Leo Jonathan says that Johnny Valentine is a s tough as they come, and while he may not always see eye to eye with his tactics, he can't deny that he's a formidable champion. Solie then asks about the man who eliminated Don Leo from the tournament, The Destroyer. Don Leo Jonathan says he'd like another shot at The Destroyer because the tournament was a fluke. He's already gone nearly 20 minutes with Adrian Street when he was called on to face The Destroyer twice in a row, and that in a normal, one on one situation, The Destroyer wouldn't stand a chance. Just as he said that, The Destroyer comes barrelling into the ringside area, breaking free of a mob of ASWA officials and attacks Don Leo Jonathan. Solie is quick to get out of the way, but this blind side attack by The Destroyer is certainly going to put Don Leo Jonathan at a disadvantage tonight. The Destroyer rolls Don Leo Jonathan into the ring and the referee rings the bell.


Don Leo Jonathan vs. George South
The attack by The Destroyer wasn't enough to help George South here. Don Leo makes quick work of South submitting him with the MORMON SWING, and heads directly back to the locker room, presumably looking for The Destroyer.
Don Leo Jonathan beat George South in 00:05:33.


John Pesek vs. Ad Santel
Pesek and Santel both gave it everything they had, but neither man could get the job done. It was clear that Pesek had the ability advantage, but not enough of one to overcome the determination of Santel.
Ad Santel and John Pesek battled to a draw in 00:20:00.


Johnny Valentine, Bobby Heenan &, Gordon Solie Johnny Valentine introduces his manager Bobby Heenan
ASWA Continental Champion Johnny Valentine stops to talk with Gordon Solie before starting his non-title match with Angelo Poffo. Valentine says that ever since winning the title he's been getting an unreasonable, and unmanagable amount of requests for his services to do everything from ribbon cuttings to advertisements to TV appearances. Since he needs to focus on wrestling, he introduces his manager and executive consultant, Bobby Heenan to the ASWA fans. Heenan tells Valentine not to sweat it, that he'll make all the arrangements for the champ when the offer is good, and tell all the ham-and-eggers that they're not worth the champ's time. Heenan then tells Solie to get lost as they need to have one last strategy pow-wow before the match. Whatever advice Heenan gave to Johnny Valentine must have been good, because he's starting this match like house of fire.


Johnny Valentine w/ Bobby Heenan vs. Angelo Poffo
Johnny Valentine sends Angelo Poffo off with a quick match, ending Poffo's night with a sleeper. Poffo was outclassed by the champion from bell to bell. This was Poffo's final match in ASWA.
