Good stuff. Tough loss for Studd. Might be doing a little sliding after that loss in the title match. I suppose you've got the makings for a tag team feud here with the Conways against Studd and a partner of his choosing. A wrestler like Studd needs someone around him, in my opinion. Tag partners, manager, part of a stable (er, family). He doesn't work well alone. I believe that's one of the reasons his WWF return on the babyface side didn't work out. You're right that he's missing a manager or ally at ringside. Maybe it's time to bring in Superstar or Bundy to tag with him. |

Both good choices. Right now I'm using the new Bundy with Studd for that purpose. The old Bundy is more used for territory stuff.

Go Gotch. Backlund looking good. Backlund is shaping up to be a competent champ. I was afraid during the hot potato period. |
