Hey
Pariah ! - When it came to The Mountie & Andre vs The Midnights I really thought it was going to be a war, but I still figured Andre would be the deciding factor, but Eaton & Lane seemed to outthink & outmaneuver them. I remember that Andre missed his finisher during the bout, whenever that happens it's always been a sign that Andre isn't indestructible & in trouble at the moment, for as long as I've been playing this game. A huge and often tragic momentum shift for him and his peeps. But The Midnight's title reign has just begun & I'm sure that Mountie & Andre are just gettin started. Many thanks brother!
Hey
cruefan68 ! - I gotta tell ya Crue, I was pretty stunned when Lane was able to take out Andre in that fashion. I figured it would take one of their tag finishers to do it. But Jim Cornette has steered his team all the way to the top. With Cornette now in the mix via an enhanced pressence, who knows, it may be Midnight for quite some time. Was able to finish up this next card, featuring the inaugural The United States Heavyweight Championship title bout as our main event for the evening. Hope it's a fun read. Always appreciated brother!

The Rumor Mill:
* In the majority of cases, managers haven't been permitted at ringside in the LPW...but there are now discussions going on now that if managers want to get in...then the only way that they are going to be able to...will be to "lace up the boots...get in the ring...and earn their keep...just like everybody else"...
* Bob Roop attempted to congradtulate Harley Race for winning The United States Heavyweight Title, but was deliberately ignored by Race...prompting Roop to know exactly which title he will start shooting for when his contract begins at the start of Program 13...
* "Captain" Lou Albano and Ray "Crippler" Stevens both alternated lifting each others arm up in the crowd and proclaimed that...They...will be the new World Tag Team Champions...
