*Press Release*
May 20, 1985
Longtime promoter of Southwest Championship Wrestling, Joe Blanchard has sold controlling interest in the company to a relative unknown and not as expected to Texas All-Star Wrestling. This is quite unexpected. "I know that the state of Texas loves pro wrestling," said new owner M.W. Jergs, "I mean it's like a religion down here and that's what attracted me. I plan to make this group the best in Texas, the best in the world." Part of that plan will be spending a lot of money to keep things flowing. A new roster is expected to be signed, a new contract with USA network had been inked trumping Vince McMahon's offer, and a host of more surprises are expected. "We will still have our working relationship with the American Wrestling Association and it's current champion, Stan Hansen is expected to defend his belt here very soon, so please join us every Saturday on USA from the Junction in San Antonio with Steve Saks. Don't you dare miss it!" More details to follow this blockbuster announcment.

*Steve Saks welcomes everyone to a new dawn for Southwest wrestling. Just recently a new heavyweight champion was crowned and that man is MASKED SUPERSTAR. Superstar joins the desk with the belt draped over his shoulder. Saks offers congratulations but mentions that the win was controversial. Superstar isn't sure what he's insinuating. Saks rolls VTR of the tournament and his finals match with JUNKYARD DOG. It shows Superstar placing some object in his mask and then landing a headbutt for the title win. Superstar claims that video can be doctored. JYD then joins the desk and challenges the champion on television today. Superstar quickly accepts and is ready to muzzle that mutt.
1) "BULLET" BOB ARMSTRONG defeated SNAKE BROWN with the SLEEPER @ 2:09.
*Armstrong speaks with Saks after the match and mentions that he and his partner TOMMY "WILDFIRE" RICH are fired up to be in the upcoming tag team tournment. All you other boys need to look out.

*The Freebirds joined Saks with Hayes doing the talking. He said that it was true that the greatest tag team ever had made it way just a quick jump from World Class wrestling and that they would take those gold belts because they could.
3) IVAN KOLOFF defeated BUDDY MORENO with the RUSSIAN BEARHUG @ 3:08.
*Saks interviews TED DIBIASE who has two things to say. One, Skandor Ackbar and the IRON SHEIK need to watch what they do and say about this great country of mine and if try anything that they did last week to try and put him out he has a old friend here on his right fist. Second, he and HACKSAW DUGGAN are ready to dominate the competition to become the Southwest tag team champions in Dallas.
-TV MAIN EVENT- -SOUTHWEST HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH- 4) JUNKYARD DOG beat MASKED SUPERSTAR (c) by DISQUALIFICATION when GINO HERNANDEZ attacked JYD with a high knee smash @ 11:37.
JYD had momentum going his way and had the masked man up for the BIG THUMP. Hernandez burst into the ring and hit a running knee and the ref called for the bell. The double team began until S.D. JONES and ICEMAN PARSONS hit the scene to run the heels off.
*STEVE SAKS mentioned that the Southwest Tag Team tournament will be in Dallas next week. Tickets on sale!
