TWA #1
McGonigle Hall
Philadelphia, PA
Jan. 17, 2123

The very first show in Tri-State Wrestling Alliance history comes to you from the McGonigle Hall on the campus of Temple University in Philadephia, Pennsylvania!

The TWA is coming out of the gates hard and fast! We open with a 25-man battle royal and the winner will be the first TWA heavyweight champion!

25-MAN BATTLE ROYAL
FOR THE TWA HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE

The eliminations came quickly until 10 or so men left in the ring. The contenders were whittled down. The final four were Big Bully Busick, Paul Orndorff, Bad News Allen, and the Trooper.

Orndorff and Bad News seemed to form a partnership, but so did Busick and the Trooper. Mr. Wonderful got rid of the Trooper, then Busick was double teamed. Orndorrf tossed him out, leaving only Bad News Allen.

Bad News got the advantage and sent Orndorff over the top rope to win the battle royal and the TWA heavyweight championship!

Show notes: Following the TWA title battle royal, the order of elimination determined the matches for the night. Some highlights were Ric McCord coming very close to beating Nikita Koloff. Thunderbolt Patterson and Eddie Graham had a fantastic match. The Trooper and Hiro Matsuda fought hard in a very even match before the D.Q. Mr. Wonderful was put to the test by Big Bully Busick but ended up winning by countout.

Hiro Matsuda & Big Bully Busick def. Paul Orndorff & The Trooper

Show notes: This show was rolled in Staunton, VA with my niece's husband Jacob.

A lot of really good matches. The early tag match was a dud with a quick ending.

The main event was a barn burner. Orndorff & the Trooper took heavy damage but never gave up. This was a long one that finally ended with Matsuda's sleeper on the Trooper.
