RESULTS!!!!! 1/22/2023 *********************************** GNW ON TOUR (101) Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Madison,WI Attendance: 7,007 ******************************************* GNW was on fire last night in Madison...
Nikolai Volkoff comes on strong to defeat Tommy Prichard last night. Prichard was the aggressor early on, and that totally surprised the big Russian. Eventually Volkoff, turns the tide and pins Prichard after a clothesline, with a RUNNING POWERSLAM! Time: 9:49.
Paul Orndorff defeated Mr. Saito, with an assist by MR. FUJI?...Orndorff was rocked early by Saito's various chops and kicks (and thrusts and chokes), and took a while to finally get going. But once he did he was awesome, he uses his brawn and pummels Saito from post to post, floor to ceiling. As he goes for his PILEDRIVER.....FUJI runs up the aisle and clips Paul from behind......the ref quickly calls for the bell. Orndorff manages to get back to his feet, and the two oriental gentlemen scatter. WINNER BY DQ, Paul Orndorff. Time: 12:33.
Ivan and Nikita flexed their imposing muscles and will to destroy, on the young stars Bobby Fulton and Tommy Rogers (aka) THE FANTASTICS. It was as physical as a match can get, the Russians were DOMINANT....Divide and conquer was the strategy and Fulton was isolated and beaten badly. Nikita pins him after nearly decapitating him with a RUSSIAN SICKLE, while Ivan stomps Rogers in the corner. Time: 8:00 (DUD)
******INTERMISSION******
Don Leo Jonathan and King Kong Mosca clashed in a battle of giants.....and this one was short but brutal.These two started the match when Mosca rushes out while Jonathan is making his entrance. Soon the punches were flying fast and furious...they fight but never quite make it to the ring....the referee calls for the bell, this one ends before it begins. NO CONTEST is declared. Time: 6:00 (DUD).
***GNW INTER-STATE CHAMPIONSHIP*** Jack Brisco was primed and ready......RODDY PIPER was not! Brisco was a on his game and tossed the Inter-State champ around the ring, and twisting him up like a pretzel on more than one occasion. Piper was on his heels and on the mat often.Re-entering the ring after a brief respite to gather himself, EVIL PIPER takes over. After a few cheap shots....(low blow, choke, etc.) , Roddy finally is able to dole out some punishment and take over. This quickly turns to an all-out melee on the floor! The ref disqualifies Piper (4 tokens) after he repeatedly uses a chair on Brisco (1token). The victory BUT NOT THE BELT, goes to the bloody challenger Jack Brisco. Time: 22:21.
****GNW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP**** Somehow GNW WORLD CHAMPION Johnny Valentine was able to overcome the unrelenting onslaught of STAN HANSEN. It was every bit as good as advertised, and it was a symphony of violence. Back and forth these two gave it their all. Valentine even kicked out of THE LARIAT!.....things changed after Hansen (2 tokens) fell through the ropes hitting the floor. The champion (5 tokens)....wastes no time taking advantage of Hansen's misfortune. After several slams on the floor and a suplex, only broken up by intermittent jumps onto the apron by Johnny to break the count, Valentine rolls Hansen into the ring.....and 2 ATOMIC SKULLCRUSHERS later....and the "Bad Man from Borger" is pinned. Time: 17:50.
Brian Sager: Another one in the books, GNW appears next on Jan.25th 7pm from The Mayo Civic Center Arena in Rochester, Minnesota. THINGS ARE HOT HERE IN THE GREAT NORTH, WE'LL SEE YOU AT THE MATCHES!!!!

RESULTS!!! 1/25/23 ******************************* GNW ON TOUR (102) The Mayo Civic Center Arena, Rochester, MN ATTENDANCE: 9,227 *********************************************** AUSTIN IDOL makes GNW history in Rochester!.....
Our opening tag-team event saw the brothers Anderson winning convincingly over The Von Brauners, in what was a close physical contest early on. The MN Wrecking Crew, eventually pick the Germans apart, finishing off Kurt Von Brauner with a well executed MINNESOTA ROLL. Time: 13:12.
The Crusher wows the large crowd defeating Stan Stasiak in exciting fashion. Stan had the fan favorite on the mat early, but The Crusher (2 tokens) battles his way back pinning Stasiak (2 tokens) following a CRUSHER BOLO. Time: 8:41.
Heated rivals Arn Anderson and Wahoo McDaniel faced off in another classic confrontation. Arn punished Wahoo early nearly pinning him after a vicious clothesline, but the tough Native American Superstar manages to kick out. It took McDaniel two big TOMAHAWK CHOPS and a WAISTLOCK SUPLEX to put down "DOUBLE A". Time: 11:46.
Freddie Blassie uses every dirty trick in his arsenal to roll his way over Antonino Rocca. Rocca was agile and in control until Blassie started bending the rules. He submits Antonino after a LOW BLOW (no DQ), with his STOMACH CLAW. Time: 7:00 (DUD).
******INTERMISSION******
*****GNW INTER-STATE TITLE SHOT**** Jackie Fargo winds up on the short end in his bid to defeat The Great Muta and secure the Inter-State Title Shot. After failing to pin Muta after a big right hand, Muta turns on the agility overwhelming Fargo with his martial arts skill. Fargo is pinned after a JUMPING SPIN KICK/POWER DRIVE ELBOW combo. Time: 10:10.
***GNW WORLD TAG-TEAM TITLE SHOT*** The Rock-n-Roll Express finally get the proverbial monkey off their backs tonight in Rochester. They turned back the stiff challenge of the Steiner Brothers to do it. In an exciting back and forth contest, Morton/Gibson come out on top. They pin Scott after a textbook DOUBLE DROPKICK...puts him to the mat, and Rick is met by Morton on his way in for the pin save. Time: 16:25.
*****GNW INTER-STATE CHAMPIONSHIP***** Austin Idol has done it! Tonight in front of a frenzied crowd of fans he wins his first GNW title!! Roddy Piper was unhinged (as usual) but Idol stayed the course, avoiding disqualification or being counted-out, due to the Rowdy one's antics. Piper (3 tokens), nearly puts Austin to sleep, but Austin (2 tokens) manages to dive backwards into the turnbuckle, breaking the hold. Austin then takes over the rest of the way, using a PILEDRIVER to win the gold!! Time: 17:12.
Brian Sager: The action keeps on getting better here in Great North Wrestling, we thank you fans for turning out! Next for GNW is ON TOUR (103) on Jan.28th, 7pm from The Sioux Falls Convention Center in Sioux Falls, SD. ....THINGS ARE HOT HERE IN THE GREAT NORTH, WE'LL SEE YOU AT THE MATCHES. ..GOOD NIGHT!!!!

RESULTS!!! 1/28/2023 ******************************* GNW ON TOUR (103) Sioux Falls Conv. Cen., Sioux Falls, SD ATTENDANCE: 6,892 ******************************************** HERE are the results from a wild night in SIOUX FALLS!!!
NYC and Oil Trough, TX go head to head in our opening match....and both Jimmy Valiant and Dutch Mantell do their hometowns proud. These two tough men go the distance in an entertaining 15 MINUTE TIME-LIMIT DRAW .
DDP gets his first loss in GNW at the hands of Dory Funk Jr. Some fine wrestling in this one, with both men having a decent run at each other. In the end Funk (2 tokens) manages to shove off a DIAMOND CUTTER attempt, and then uses a BUTTERFLY SUPLEX on a surprised Page for the pin! Time: 10:29.
The Blackjacks come up big in Sioux Falls!! In a brutal back and forth battle, the former GNW WORLD Tag-Team champs defeat the Brothers Anderson (aka MN Wrecking Crew) in a good one! Physical and grueling just the way these two teams (AND THE FANS) like it!. After weathering Ole/Gene's attempt to break his arm, Mulligan makes the hot-tag to Lanza, who comes in and clears the ring! After tossing OLE, to the floor, Lanza pins Gene with a TEXAS BRAINBUSTER! Time: 14:03.
******INTERMISSION******
THINGS didn't slow after the break as Minnesota and Texas go at it again, this time it was Dick Murdoch squaring off against DOUBLE A, Arn Anderson! This one was just as physical and violent as the match before it. Arn (3 tokens), and Murdoch (2 tokens) battled here, there.....EVERYWHERE in the Sioux Falls Convention Center!!... ARN charges an empty corner (vacated by Dick of course), and that turns the tide and tempo of this contest. Murdoch begins the ground and pound, and uses a FALLING FACE-SLAM for the eventual 1...2....3! Time: 13:11.
With "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes's impressive and QUICK win over Adrian Adonis, the great state of TEXAS goes 3-0-1 for the evening! Rhodes had little difficulty securing the win early after a series of BIONIC ELBOWS... Time: 6:00 (DUD).
***GNW INTER-STATE CHAMPIONSHIP*** Just 3 days after winning the gold from Roddy Piper, Austin Idol successfully defends his Inter-State Title against the stiff challenge of THE GREAT MUTA. Idol manages to win in spite of the lightning fast martial arts attack (and the GREEN MIST) to pull out the hard fought victory. Idol grounds the aerial assault of Muta, and takes the win after ducking a SPIN KICK, by Muta and locking in his SLEEPER! Time: 21:52.
Brian Sager: It just doesn't get any better than that!!! What a night of professional wrestling!! Next up Great North heads to Fairmont, MN for a fundraiser for the FAIRMONT H.S. MUSIC BOOSTERS.

RESULTS!!!! 1/31/2023 ********************************* GNW ON TOUR (104) Fairmont H.S. GYM, Fairmont, Minnesota ATTENDANCE: 3,187 ******************************************** A great time was had by everyone in attendance in Fairmont.......
Scott Casey notches a win against Killer Karl Krupp in somewhat of an upset. Casey took his lumps early from the big German, but battled back. He pins Krupp after not 1, but 2 BULLDOGS! Time: 10:09.
"Iceman" King Parsons makes his GNW debut in Fairmont with a hard fought victory over Col. Debeers. The funky Parsons proved to be too slippery for the brute from South Africa, who runs out of gas trying to catch the ICEMAN. Parsons pins Debeers after a series of dropkicks with a SNAP SUPLEX. Time: 9:18.
Our tag-team feature was also entertaining as the Brothers Guerrero showed their superior agility and aerial offense to the fans in Fairmont. Their opponents The Cuban Assassin/Mr. Fuji didn't have any answers for it tonight. LOS VAQUEROS win in thrilling fashion as Chavo Sr. pins the Cuban, with his MOONSAULT BODYPRESS. Time: 12:23.
*********INTERMISSION*********
Things only got better after the break as The Crusher brawled with "The King of Men" Freddie Blassie! This one wasn't a thing of beauty, but very, very exciting. These two fought on the floor, in the crowd, as well as inside the ring. The Crusher (2 tokens) hit Blassie (3 tokens) with a CRUSHER BOLO, but Blassie manages to kick out. With the time Limit fast approaching (30 min) Blassie gets the win after a series of KNEE DROPS. Time: 29:51.
**GNW INTER-STATE TITLE SHOT MATCH** Barry Windham will get the next shot at champion Austin Idol, by virtue of his win over another former I.S. champion Don Muraco tonight in Fairmont. The lanky Texan was tested by The Magnificent One, but stayed the course and secured the victory. He mounts a comeback and pins Don with a bone-jarring LARIAT. Time: 12:09.
***NO DISQUALIFICATION MAIN EVENT*** Two of the most notable veterans in professional wrestling clashed in a classic! Ox Baker and Thunderbolt Patterson hit the ring, and it was WAR! Patterson was as cagey as ever and managed to frustrate Ox early on. But Baker in his element, (NO DQ) would win the day. He cheated at every turn, and eventually it wore Patterson down. Baker gets the 1,2,3,....after a devastating HEART PUNCH takes the rest of the fight out of Patterson. Time: 19:44.
Brian Sager: THE FAIRMONT MUSIC BOOSTERS along with Great North Wrestling would like thank you great fans for coming out tonight.

Ray Stevens and Wrestling II put on a show in St. Paul tonight! Both men showcased their strengths and it was an entertaining match. The tide turns in this one as the fight spills outside (where STEVENS has the advantage). After taking several liberties while outside the ring (no DQ), he tosses II back in....and gets the duke pinning the masked man with a BOMBS AWAY!. Time: 13:56.
Dusty Rhodes takes the measure of the Super Destroyer in a solid victory. The American Dream was firing on all cylinders and SD couldn't get much going. Rhodes after wearing Super D down, gets the win via submission, with THE FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK. Time: 12:23.
******INTERMISSION******
**GNW INTER-STATE TITLE SHOT MATCH** Ed Lewis turns back Top 10 contender Tully Blanchard to get a shot at the Inter-State gold! In a grueling back and forth tussle, The Strangler (3 tokens) comes out on top in this one. Blanchard (4 tokens) is finally dispatched by Lewis after a textbook BEARHUG POWERBOMB. Time: 13:51.
**GNW WORLD TITLE SHOT MATCH** Superstar Graham literally hands the title shot to DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE! Billy was in no mood to wrestle and tried to goad PAGE into a brawl on the outside. PAGE doesn't take the bait, and waits patiently inside the ring. After Graham finally enters the ring......he bum rushes PAGE and is DISQUALIFIED for refusing to break it up so the match can legally start. Time: 8:00 (DUD).
*GNW WORLD TAG-TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP* Jim Cornette's boys keep their grip on the belts tonight with a hardfought victory over their hated rivals Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson, THE ROCK-N-ROLL EXPRESS! In true fashion Cornette was able to provide enough outside distraction, to give the advantage to Eaton and Condrey. After jumping up on the apron, Morton takes his eyes of Condrey and rushes towards Cornette... big mistake! As Jim drops back to the floor Condrey blindsided Morton with an elbow to the back of the head. Dennis plants Ricky into the mat for the 1,2,3 with a GUT-WRENCH SUPLEX....as Gibson is unable to make the pin save (second). Time: 20:16.
Brian Sager: Thanks to all the great fans here in St. Paul for coming out tonight! GNW ON TOUR (106) is next.....from the FARGODOME in Fargo, North Dakota on 2/5/2023....bell-time 7PM! THINGS ARE HOT HERE IN THE GREAT NORTH, WE'LL SEE YOU AT THE MATCHES. ....GOOD NIGHT!!
