Tom's DMP Legends fed!

[TOM]

Bruno has joined our fed! How long before he goes to the top?

Predictions for our next card are always weldome.

[TOM]

We had a great card today and crowned a new World Champion. The results will be posted sometime soon.

On another note, and I feel embarrassed to ask because I probably should know---Are there Rahl Ratings (or something like that) for all the Legends cards listed in one place? We're trying to make some decisions that involve classifying wrestler skill levels.

If someone can let me know, thanks.

Want to get everybody caught up with the changes in the stables and will then update belt holders, contenders and upcoming card. First, let's get caught up as there has been changes... all for the better!
Filsinger Stable, just signed monster HOF superstar Bob Backlund, who will have his initial match in a couple cards from now. Also being added to the Filsinger Stable is Haku and Ron Hutchinson. A very interesting twist came about as Filsinger signed disgruntled Apisdorf wrestler Brian Blair who had a falling out (hope it's reversable, but right now it's not) with fellow Killer Bee tag teamer, Jim Brunzell. Reason for leaving has not yet been determined, but Blair snuck away and it's understood recently signed with Filsinger. Initially Blair with tag with The Flying Redheads forming a 3 person tag team that will wrestle Apisdorf "hit" squad of The Sheik, Sabu and RVD. This could become a real feud!

Rubinstein's Stable just signed the other monster HOF superstar, which has been identified in an earlier post, Brunno Sammartino. Brunno has already won his first 3 matches but his issue is Rubinstein's Stable hold "all" the belts. So Brunno has to wait until something opens. He's waiting in the wings.

Apisdorf stable just signed Kevin Steen, who falls in line with the Apisdorf style of aggressive offense with some suspect defense. Apisdorf is hoping Steen has a run for a belt. Steen is already 1-0. The re-signing is "Dr. Death" Steve Williams. He will do some single matches, of which he is currently 1-0, but the stable is very excited at his ability to tag with Mike Rotunda, Barry Windham and Big Van Vader... all of which could be contenders to the tag team title, currently held by the Road Warriors.

The whole Fed is very excited for the new wrestlers, or returning ones and the upcoming card(s).
We'll be updating last card, current belt holders, contenders and the next card soon.

I don't know if the Rahl ratings are in one place, but I can gather and send them this weekend if you would like.

While I used Doc with Rotunda as the Varisty Club and their feuds, you need to team Doc and Vader as the Death Stars!

A number of the above wrestlers (singles and tag) are in the Rubinstein Stable, thus locked out of any opportunity
to wrestle for a belt at this time.

Cage George "Animal" Steele Pompero Firpo split 2 previous matches - Steele won by DQ...who wins the deciding match?
Regular Kevin Steen One Man Gang 1st mtg, Steen trying to move up but draws a tough match against huge One Man Gang.
Regular Kangaroos Dynamite Kid/Dr Death 1st match for Kid/Dr Death... as Apisdorf stable looking to see how super strong/super agile does.
Regular Ted Dibiasi Wahoo McDaniel 1st match, as Wahoo coming off nice win in (Cowboys vs Indians) Cowboy Bob Orton w/Tomahawk Chop
Regular Sabu/RVD/Sheik Flying Redheads/Blair Blair's first match in Filsinger stable, as the "hit squad" is after him. Will be very interesting!

Belt Matches
US Belt #28 Johnny Valentine Antonio Anoki 1st meeting between these 2 wrestlers, as Valentine is going for 4th successful defense. Anoki who has
had a remarkable turnaround after a long layout where he went back to Japan to train. Since back has
won 6 or 7 matches. Unfortunately the one loss was for the World Belt against Killer Kowalski.

World Belt #23 Killer Kowalski Big Van Vader Vader defended World Belt vs Kowalski when Vader had the belt. Will Killer keep the belt?

Here we go... a FANTASTIC card happened yesterday. Lots of upsets and other's were favored.
Last week's pick went 5-5-1... the 1 was the Triple Threat match... check out below which wrestlers you picked, actually won.

Last Card:
Match Winner Loser Comments
Regular Bob Backlund Kurt Beyer Kurt started quickly, covering Backlund very early... Backlund kicked out dominated & pinned Beyer for the win. 2.5
Chain SD Jones Cuban Assassin Last match was timed out... this match lasted 4 moves and SDJ pinned the Cuban Assassin. 2.0
Cage Pompero Firpo George/Animal Steele
In a match that Steele dominated, until Firpo used a foreign object... turning the match around and pinning Steele. 3.0
Regular Kevin Steen One Man Gang In a match that went back and forth, OMG did quite well, until Steen went on the offensive taking over the match, and
eventually getting OMG on his back where he was able to pin him. 3.5
Regular Kangaroos Dynamite Kid/Dr Death Steve Williams
Good match that went back and forth, but the more back and forth the more it was evident the cohesiveness of the
Kangaroos tag partnership proved huge vs a couple wrestlers that had never teams up before. Costello eventually applied
his Boomerang finisher pinning Dr. Death. 3.5
Regular Ted DiBiasi Wahoo McDaniel In a match where both wrestlers were looking for some consistency in their "game", DiBiase was more successful in a match
where both wrestlers applied good moves and got out of jams. Finally though, DiBiasi applied his Cobra Clutch pinning
Wahoo in a very exciting back and forth match. 3.5
Regular Blair & Redheads Sabu-RVD-Sheik In a match where the Apisdorf Stable sent the Detroit Contingent after "runaway" Brian Blair, who then teamed with
the Flying Redheads in a 3 man tag match. The match went back and forth and when either Red Head had an advantage they
tagged out to Blair who tried to finish the match, but never seemed able to close it out. Blair proved his "stock" when
he took an awful beating from all "3" men only to someone tag out and live to wrestle again later that match. In the end
Sabu was DQ'd when he put Blair on a table outside the ring, jumped on the ropes and onto Blair on the table leaving him
unable to continue the match. That spurred an all out battled between the 5 wrestlers left standing and a promise that
things have just gotten started. 4.0
Triple Threat: Iron Sheik/Macho Man/B Windham This match went back and forth as all wrestlers were bleeding, but in the end Iron Sheik applied his Camel Clutch to
Barry Windham pinning him. 3.0
Dog Collar Road Warriors vs Slaughter/Duggan
In a nontitle match and one where Slaughter & Duggan (recently tagging together) did a fantastic job in and back an forth
match against the Road Warriors. As all 4 wrestlers were bloodied, in what the Warriors say was a very quick count,
Slaughter pinned Animal for the win. After the match Slaughter and Duggan said they look forward to wrestling them for
the title in next weeks card only to get turned down by the Animals. They told them they're not wrestling them next week
for the title, but rather only if they beat another tag team and then, and only then, will they meet the Animals for the
Tag Team Belt. 4.0

Belt Matches:
US Belt #28 Johnny Valentine Antonio Anoki Anoki, after a long absence training back in Japan had done a very nice job getting back into belt contention. So much
so he wrestled Killer Kowalski for the tile... twice...but lost both times. Anoki continued to win and Valentine's
stable decided to give Anoki a shot at the US Belt. While Anoki tried, he never seemed to be able to gain any momentum
and was worn down by J. Valentine, who pinned Anoki retaining the belt. 3.5

World Belt #23 Big Van Vader Killer Kowalski These 2 big men went right to the middle of the ring and went at it. Both men giving and taking punishment as the match
went back and forth, until finally BV Vader applied him Power Bomb finisher, finishing and pinning Killer and taking back
the belt he previously held. 4.5

There you have this past card... it was a doozy and had a great deal of excitement. We are looking forward to next Tuesday nights card. It should be a good one as well.
