RESULTS!!!! 6-5-2023 ********************************* GNW ON TOUR #143 The Resch Center, Green Bay, WI Attendance: 3,477 ********************************** Despite severe weather (thunderstorms) and one brief power-outage, it was a good night of wrestling action in our first GREEN BAY event!
The Mighty Igor wowed the crowd with his awesome strength, as he defeated the gritty New Yorker, Adrian Adonis. Igor muscles his way out of Adrian's GOODNIGHT IRENE, then forces Adonis to submit to his vice-like BEARHUG. Time: (10:27).
Jackie Fargo loses his cool and his match with Iceman King Parsons! Iceman was at his crafty best, making Fargo look old and slow. In the end Fargo gets disqualified for using a ringside object (the bell) to open up Parsons. Post-DQ Fargo continued to pummel the Iceman, injuring him (2 cards),before security is able to come out and restore order. Time: (6:00) (DUD).
Ox Baker continues his rise through the ranks with his second straight singles win. This time his victim was none other than Wahoo McDaniel. This was a tough fought, and very physical match, as expected between these 2 tough men. Baker avoids a pin attempt and a submission attempt (powerslam/Leg Grapevine), and pins the Native American star after a couple of ELBOW SMASHES followed up with a LEG DROP. Time: (11:09).
**********INTERMISSION********** THE AUSSIES came into Green Bay, and leave with a victory over The Rock-n-Roll Express! Red Berry was the cause of Morton and Gibson's demise, and The Fabulous Kangaroos were of course the benefactors. As Gibson was mounting a hot-tag comeback against Roy Heffernan, Berry reaches inside the ring and trips up Robert...who stumbles into Roy who catches him with a KANGAROO KICK/ TIGER SUPLEX combo! Time: (13:27).
**GNW WORLD TITLE SHOT MATCH** ONCE more the epic, life-long war between The American Dream Dusty Rhodes and his hated rival Tully Blanchard rocks the Resch Expo Center!!...with a shot at GNW WORLD CHAMPION, FREDDIE BLASSIE as the prize! Tully (3 tokens), was his cruel and devious self, and looked like the favorite early on. Big DUST, though as is his way, battles back with the backing of the fans in attendance energizing him! Dusty (4 tokens) rallies and works Blanchard's LEG, even wrapping it around the ringpost (no DQ). Finally having done enough damage, Rhodes makes Tully give up the ghost using his FIGURE FOUR! Time: (18:26).
**GNW WORLD TAG-TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP** The newly crowned GNW WORLD TAG-TEAM CHAMPIONS Ivan and Nikita Koloff were victorious over The Fantastics (Fulton/Roger) in their first defense of the titles since defeating the former Champions The Road Warriors at MEMORIAL MAYHEM 2. Fulton and Rogers came in confident after winning the 4Team Tournament at MEMORIAL MAYHEM 2, but just couldn't cash in on their momentum. Ivan and Nikita laid the smackdown on the Fantastics from bell to bell in this impressive victory. With Nikita staving off a charging Fulton (coming to his partner's aid) IVAN pins a bloodied Tommy Rogers after a DOUBLE STOMP and a RUSSIAN BACKBREAKER! Time: (13:48).
Brian Sager: Despite the stormy weather and the brief power loss, what an amazing night of professional wrestling action. Thank you GREEN BAY.....please travel safely home, we hope to see you all again very soon. Next GNW ON TOUR travels to The RiverCenter in Davenport, IA for ON TOUR #144 bell-time 7PM on June 8th...2023....THINGS ARE HOT HERE IN THE GREAT NORTH, WE'LL SEE YOU AT THE MATCHES. ....GOOD NIGHT!!!

RESULTS!!!! 6-8-2023 ********************************* GNW ON TOUR #144 The RiverCenter, Davenport, IA Attendance: 2,057 ********************************* Here are the results, following an exciting night of professional wrestling action, in Davenport!!
Al Perez manages to snatch DEFEAT from the jaws of victory tonight in The RiverCenter! Having dominated most of this match against Salvatore Bellomo, somehow the popular Italian manages to pull out an upset win! Perez gets caught in a SMALL PACKAGE by Bellomo, while jawing with the spectators! Time: (11:36).
Col. Debeers doesn't win over any of the fans in Davenport, as he destroyed Brian Adias in their contest. After vacating the corner (at the last possible second) when Adias tried an unsuccessful flying knee, the brutal Colonel takes over. After some clubbing forearms, Debeers (1fatigue) dispatches Adias (2 tokens) after a vicious FACE FIRST PILEDRIVER. Time: (9:25).
Gene and Ole Anderson (The MN Wrecking Crew), had no trouble crushing the Batten Twins (Brad/Bart). In fact they won decisively after Ole saves Gene from an early surprise pin attempt (SUNSET FLIP) by Bart Batten. The brothers Anderson then destroyed the Twins with Ole pinning Brad after a MINNESOTA ROLL. Time: (7:00) (DUD).
*******INTERMISSION*******
The action picks right back up after the break, with a gem of a match between Don Leo Jonathan and The Crusher!! In a physical back and forth melee, Jonathan shakes off a Crusher BOLO, and pins Milwaukee's favorite son via his MORMON SWING. Time: (11:58).
**GNW INTER-STATE TITLE SHOT MATCH** Austin Idol turns back Diamond Dallas Page, and earns a chance to regain the GNW INTER-STATE strap in the process. In arguably the match of the night, Idol finishes strong after weathering a lengthy offensive assault from DDP (3 tokens). Austin (3 tokens) battles back hard, and finally uses his SLEEPER, to put DDP down for good in this one. Time: (23:22).
*GNW INTER-STATE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH* Barry Windham gets the duke, but walks away from the ring empty-handed tonight in Davenport! Barry looked impressive against the champion, King Kong Mosca, in fact he was way ahead on "points" in this one! But after a slight miscue by Windham, Mosca takes the fight outside of the ring, to the floor! Big Angelo, gets DISQUALIFIED for shoving the ref, and retains his INTER-STATE TITLE! Time: (13:46).
Brian Sager: Thus ends another exciting night of Great North Wrestling!!! Davenport thanks for having us!!! Next up GNW travels to Lansing, Michigan for ON TOUR #145, bell-time 7pm Saturday June 10th, from the Iconic Lansing Center!!! GOOD NIGHT FANS, FROM GREAT NORTH WRESTLING, WHERE THE ACTION NEVER STOPS!!!!!

RESULTS!!!!! 6-10-23 ********************************* ON TOUR #145 The Lansing Center, Lansing, Michigan ATTENDANCE: 6,578 ***************************************** (Sorry for the delayed results, busy day, yesterday!) It was a night of classic Great North professional wrestling action, Saturday night in front of a rowdy Michigan crowd!!!
Big Nikolai Volkoff had his way with Matt Bourne in our opening match. After a brief bit of difficulty, the Big Russian breaks Bourne's spirit, getting the 1,2,3 after a THROAT DROP ON THE TOP ROPE! Time: (5:10) (DUD).
The Dirty White Boy, improves his win-loss record, with a gritty hard earned victory over Arn Anderson! Anthony (2 fatigue) after taking his fair share of punishment and abuse from Arn (2 fatigue), pulls out the win, fighting back with a fury of offense, eventually blasting Anderson with his BUCKSNORT BLASTER! Time: (10:24).
In a contest of young lions, Tracy Smothers gets the "W" over an over-confident Buff Bagwell. Bagwell seemingly having the match in hand, makes the mistake of complacency, toying with Smothers, instead of going in for the kill. His constant posing and preening and bragging catch up to him, as Tracy (4 tokens), catches Buff right in the mush with a JAWJACKER and the 1,2,3. Time: (11:39).
********INTERMISSION******** HARD TIME comes to Lansing and to the team of Brad Armstrong and Scott Casey! The Big Boss Man and The Trooper had their best outing as a tag-team with a solid all around preformance. They punished Armstrong/Casey with high-impact moves,quick tags and effective double-team tactics. Brad and Scott tried to fight their way back, but it just wasn't in the cards tonight in Lansing. AFTER a DOUBLE BACK BODY DROP, The Trooper pins ARMSTRONG after an ALABAMA SLAM. Time: (10:48).
**NO DISQUALIFICATION MATCH** Two of the biggest, baddest men in the GNW clashed in a possible MATCH OF THE YEAR candidate Saturday night in Lansing. STAN HANSEN and TERRY GORDY shook the pillars of The Lansing Center, in a knockdown drag-out slobber-knocker!! The two men unleashed a symphony of violence of the first magnitude!!! Both men were bloody, tired and most certainly won't be the same after this one. Hansen (3 tokens) used his LARIAT on three occasions but, Bamm Bamm was able to kick out every time. They fought in the ring, on the floor...even in the crowd! After charging Gordy (who sidesteps out of the way)...Hansen hits his head,neck and shoulder into the ringpost and the sickening sound of flesh on steel silenced the raucous crowd, but only for an instant. GORDY uses this turn of events to his advantage, capitalizing on it with some clubbing forearms and vicious kicks. With Hansen somewhat softened up BAMM BAMM pins The Bad Man from Borger after 2 POWERBOMBS!! Time: (18:44).
**GNW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH** Recently crowned World Champion Freddie Blassie successfully defends the title (his second defense) defeating DUSTY RHODES in front of the Lansing crowd. It wasn't a stellar showing by either man, but a win is a win. Neither man seemed to he able to get any prolonged offense started, but their defenses were solid. In the end during a back drop from Blassie, Dusty falls out over the top-rope and hits his head on the announcers table on his way to the concrete floor. Dusty (injured for 3 cards), is unable to beat the ref's count and loses by COUNT-OUT. Time: (13:14).
Brian Sager: GOOD STUFF here tonight in Lansing, we thank you great fans for coming out tonight. Great North Wrestling, now heads to the First Interstate Arena in Billings, Montana for GNW ON TOUR #146, bell-time 7pm on June 13th!!!...we hope to see another huge crowd there as well! Good Night, from GREAT NORTH WRESTLING, WHERE THE ACTION NEVER STOPS!!!!!
