Well, I can admit when I'm wrong -- Zbyszko & Garea surprised me by taking the belts from the Bombers... How long can they hold onto the gold?
Really enjoyed that tag team Falls Count Anywhere main event... Big win for Blackjack & The Axe... And I'm really looking forward to the unavoidable showdown between Jack Brisco and Muraco.
Backlund gets past two dangerous challengers - Savage and Race... He still has a long road ahead to threaten Vader's record... An encounter between those two would rock the ring!

Backlund solidifies his legacy by defeating the Man of 1000 Masks... It was a spectacular main event and I'm impressed that Mil agreed to let Backlund go over. Professionalism at its finest!
Disappointed that Backlund vs Inoki ended with a DQ... Maybe Inoki was jet lagged and the referee needed a way to end things on the fly... Hope we get a rematch.
Also enjoy the additional touches that you put into your events... Things like the reactions of the commentary team to certain situations or Sarge missing his match with Gotch due to travel issues.
This fed has a truly solid backbone heading into its upcoming year, my friend. Very nice work!

During my last Legends show, Dan Spivey got eliminated from a Battle Royal, but I suddenly got busy and forgot to delete him from the participant list... So, I just said the referees were distracted and he managed to sneak back into the ring. |

The match where the Fabulous Ones showed up wearing the Texas Hangmen's gear is because I could only find one Hangman at the time. |
