King Promotions Presents the AWA

With a first round like that, I can't wait for round 2!

I know in another thread you were a little concerned about the upsets, but that's part of the deal. I'm sure someone must have "interfered" in the Flair match, perhaps someone wanting Flair out of the title picture.

That's the kind of stuff you need to dance around so that the dice don't drive you mad.

Keep it going, you never know what will happen next!

This has been one unpredictable ride so far. I thought Dirge was going to beat John Studd, but Studd would just not go down. The last round I picked 3 of the 4 winners wrong. The only one that made it to the final 4 was The Destroyer. I thought Dick Hutton would make it, even though Rocca seems better. Stunned that Bob Orton Sr. beat DLJ. I thought DLJ was going to be my first Heavyweight champion after the way this all shook out, but I guess I should have known better by now.
