Show #33: 1/4/11 - First HOW card of 2011!

Bout #1:
Dan Severn vs. Masked Superstar
- Dan made sure that he grabbed a hold of MS early and never let him go. By constantly keeping a hold of his opponent, Dan was able to dictate the pace and position of the match. Dan used his Wakigatme to win at 7:25.

Bout #2:
Paul London vs. Jushin Liger
- Great fast paced action, especially as London tried to keep Liger off-balance. Liger was able to catch London and planted him with a Liger Driver for the win at 6:39.

Bout #3:
Tiger Mask vs. Les Thatcher
- Another junior heavyweight dream match, as there were loads of near falls. Les scored several 2 and a half counts, but Tiger was able to sneak out the back. Tiger himself scored several near falls, as the fans were electric the entire bout. Les used his Stump Puller at 25:58 to take the win.

Main Event
Bout #4:
Bill Dundee & Val Venis vs. William Muldoon & Ray Stevens
- This strange mix of teams face off again after meeting last week, Bill and Val looked like a solid team early, but things started to fall apart again. Val did not make the save as Dundee was suplexed by Muldoon for the win at 16:50.

1/10/11: CCW Library sold off

Cove Championship Wrestling's video library (which includes all the Shark Valley Championship Wrestling video rights) have been sold off to a group calling themselves The Alliance. While not much is known about The Alliance, they were able to purchase the entire video library for an even $1 Million. The rights were previously held by the NIWA and the sale was not even a a blip on Jim Ross' screen.

"Who cares! A bunch of old videos that no one would ever want to see? Please, I think the money will help us even more than any old videos."

Other talks concerning CCW properties have been going on throughout the last few weeks and will continue, as the NIWA is looking to make money off of CCW.

I'm surprised Inoki didn't beat Gordy.

[jasonjaconetti]

Ran it with PBP Sim and it was not pretty for Inoki.

I'm just glad that someone is reading

[marktaggart]

I commented on Baba's win over Thesz in Dustin's 5-star Wrestling thread, and I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Rick Rude's win over Baba here. As tough as Baba is, I'm glad Rick Rude has managed two wins in a row over him. That's a nice equation between the two threads:
Rick Rude > Baba > Thesz. You could just simplify it though: Rick Rude > everyone.

[Crimson Cross]

HOW is a very excellent fed JJ, I really like the vibe you've presented and on the topic of Rick Rude... he is 3-1 in my Wrestling Edge Australia and it's Cool seeing him do well in your fed and holding onto the Gold over Giant Baba is very top notch defending...
