I like the idea of the relaunch of the NWA. There is young talent out there and available along with veterans. Of course my vote is for Terry Funk to reclaim the NWA title in the tourney at Genesis

I thought I was in this but maybe this is why I can’t post pics? Please add

Excellent work on the BSC and I’ve been thinking of title names so love the Vegas Strip belt? This will really help me get old Kate Avatar (my version) back into the ring in the very near future.
Well first thing I’ll have to do is learn how to put pics in this new forum format. Guess the old style doesn’t work- 1

WRESTLEROCK FAN POLL
Your opinion of WrestleRock? Always remember this is all in good fun 😉
Thumbs Up - I’m giving the show a lean to thumbs up. I’m glad the Jonnie Stewart match was not telecast. I always liked Stewart and while in the dying AWA the Milliman thing was a “fun” joke (I guess), the new AWA is beyond the joke. Shocked Cowboy would go with that decision.
While I wouldn’t have gone with Wahoo winning, it’s a nice story and the fans (most of them) went home happy.
The undercard was solid, not a real weakness of the cards main show. That said I would have liked to have seen a tag team title defense on a big show.
Best match on WrestleRock? If I didn’t know what the outcome was going to be for me it would have been DeBeers vs Sarge. Loser leave is the ultimate high stakes
Worst match on WrestleRock? It wasn’t a bad match and I get why it was done, but for me it would be the opening 10-man match. I would have loved to see Bor Orion get in the match if you’re going to have it.
Star of the show? Has to go to Wahoo for winning the one title he never had before.
Was Vixen the right choice for the rock act on the show? Considering the location, I’d say no. Might be my bias that I never was really interested in them back in the day, but that aside do they fit Sioux Falls?
I'm assuming the attendance was a slight disappointment to the AWA but let’s see how they did financially. The rumored signings should be a positive and you never know what the impact of Nikita vs DeBeers might be. I’m of course a heel fan and I liked the true Russian Nightmare better than the Super Powers Nikita, but DeBeers is a good feud to start with especially fresh of that shocking win over Sarge.

Sarge would still be the World Champion but then I called an audible and went with the Sarge to the WWF behind the scenes storyline. Jack was just a placeholder. Wahoo was the only one I saw on the roster as a viable WC on the face side at this point despite his advanced years in the biz.
Question is: is Wahoo just a transitional World Champ, too?
Yes he is! But the next champion needs to arrive and get established quickly. But I can see who his manager will be. And it could be a very interesting combo!
And boy do I feel for Jonnie Stewart lol.

Really well done angle and presented like a real match unlike the trampoline show and no-selling we get today.
Yes no comparison between the scripted folks that clearly cooperate together. Back in the day, the fights looked real. The issues looked legitimate. Don’t even get me started on 90% of today’s angles and matches..

The famous broken leg match. I had heard about it but never seen that match that I recall. Definitely before we had cable.

PREDICTION CARD
ALL-STAR WRESTLING
FEBRUARY WEEK 1
Butch Reed VS. Brad Rheingans
i just watched an old GCW show from 1981 and it had a TV main event of Bruce Reed vs The Masked Superstar. Early in Reed’s career before the name change and the Hacksaw. Always a good solid talent
Boris Breznikoff VS. Steve O
Same show as I mentioned above and who did the Superstar beat for the National title, Steve O? What I didnt recall that title run
Masa Saito VS. Rick Martel
Main Event
Curt Hennig VS. Bobby Duncum
Growing up tough for Curt here but I think he gets a win.
On a side note, good riddance Buck!
One thing on the main event. A very shrewd move by Hogan. Letting Wahoo win so he can “soften” up the champ so that he can have an easier time the following month. Is Hogan a babyface, or listen to advice from Cornette….hmmm

MAIN EVENT: Jerry Blackwell & announcer Lee Marshall def. Cactus Jack (WC) & Tommy Rich when Marshall pinned Rich with a diving splash after Blackwell had avalanched Rich (Match lasted between 8-10 minutes each night)
Poor Wildfire getting embarrassed by an announcer who is likely leaving. I hope Tommy gets a well deserved bonus! Very glad these matches will never see the light of TV. Good call Cowboy!

WRESTLEROCK PREDICTIONS!!!FOR THE AWA WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPCactus Jack (WC) vs. Wahoo McDanielThe story of Wahoo finally winning the belt would be a fun story but I’m not sure making him the champ helps the AWA long term. I think Cactus becomes fodder for Barry or maybe even Kerry getting another shot at the gold. I truly hope Tully comes in, creates a stable (see Orion comment) and gets in the mix. I’ve always loved Cactus but at this stage in his career he is not the “Man”. That said he retains here for now.LOSER LEAVES THE AWA/NO DQ!Sgt. Slaughter vs. Col. DeBeersIf we didn’t know what we know, this would be a different outcome with a different match stipPOWERBOMB VS. POWERBOMBMagnifient Mimi (WC) vs. Wendi Richter(Mimi's manager Valerie will be locked in a shark cage at ringside so she cannot interfere in the match.)For me toughest match to call (even though I’m likely wrong on others). From what I can tell this is a non-title match with the deck stacked against Mimi. Since I think there is a future title rematch (let’s run it one more time), I can’t see Richter losing. I also think that next (final) match will be a cage match. I see Val tossing something into the ring but Richter gaining control of it and that sends Mimi out running and we have a non finish count-out. Richter doesn’t lose and Mimi running sets up the cage for the belt battle.
OPEN CHALLENGE MATCHKokina Maximus vs. Don MuracoCowboy said it best, we all know how this ends.10-MAN TAGThe Trooper, Ken Patera, Brad Rheingans & The Top Gunsvs.Greg Valentine (PWHC), The Destruction Crew (WTTC) & Badd Co. (w/ Mgr. DDP)This is the 2nd toughest match to call and might be the toughest. The heels have the belts so it makes sense that one of Badd Company takes the loss, or even Valentine if Trooper pins him. The other side of this is that we have drama on the face team with several members. Does Valerie come down again and cause confusion? In my booking results this is a heel heavy card and I do feel Trooper needs to start getting elevated up the card. Faces win, but drama is all around.DARK MATCHESGreg Gagne vs. Bob OrtonGreg just did the honors to The Bull in less than 4 minutes. I’ll say it goes 7 but “Ace” picks up a win and prepares for his new alliance.Jonnie Stewart vs. Jake MillimanThe man of the 90’s picks up and easy win over the “joke” in wrestling, the Milkman. I’m wanting to see Randy or Bill Mulkey come in as heels to take on MilkaMania- 1

The Coven of Shadows emerge from the convergence of four mystical forces, drawn together by an ancient prophecy that foretells their union in the wrestling realm. Each member brings her unique talents in the arcane arts, forming a sisterhood that captivates audiences with their enchanting personas.
1. Morgana Shadowcaster
Morgana, the enigmatic leader of the Coven, possesses an aura of mystical elegance. With obsidian-black hair adorned by moon-shaped charms, she epitomizes the essence of a sorceress commanding dark magic. In the ring, Morgana's persona embodies calculated precision and a touch of mysterious allure. Her in-ring style blends elements of agility with sudden bursts of dark power, often mesmerizing opponents with her bewitching moves and cunning strategies.2. Raven Hex
Raven, a cunning enchantress, has an uncanny knack for casting ancient hexes. Her long flowing auburn hair and piercing emerald eyes add to her enigmatic allure. In the ring, Raven's persona exudes an aura of ominous foreboding. Her in-ring style leans heavily on manipulating opponents' thoughts and movements, often leaving them entranced and disoriented. Raven weaves spells through her wrestling, making each match a calculated dance of dark enchantment.3. Lilith Moonspell

In the ring, Lilith's persona exudes an ethereal and cosmic energy. Her in-ring style is fluid and graceful, as if she anticipates her opponents' every move through cosmic premonitions. She often incorporates dazzling, almost hypnotic maneuvers, captivating audiences with her celestial grace.4. Selene Starweaver

Selene's performances are celestial spectacles, leaving audiences in awe of her cosmic prowess.The Coven of Shadows, bound by their shared devotion to the mystical arts, captivates wrestling audiences with their collective aura of mystery, each member contributing a unique facet of witchcraft to their enchanting performances. As a quartet, they weave spells of fascination and wonderment, embodying a balance between darkness and cosmic illumination within the wrestling realm.
Really like this “Charmed” stable of wrestlers. While I am not a fan of the teleportation and super natural power things (save for Taker), it has a lot of possibilities in a good diary. They will definitely have a future in women’s Cverse wrestling

Not something that would've been seen on Vince's shows back in the day. On the Crockett TV shows, the excitement was genuine and the action and storylines were convincing (including the Cornette fire-throwing angle that led to Jim Garvin's face turn).
Something that is sadly missing today. Too much scripted dialogue written by Hollywood type writers and not enough real story that creates excitement. There are very few believable characters anymore, and for the most part the matches are as they would say are the drizzling @#&!$

Winning picks listed in brackets.
Theheel - 1/4 (Badd Co.)

Congrats Old School Fan! SPEECH! SPEECH! 😁
Here is your video reward! (You have also won a psychic trip to ALL the Tim Horton's in Canada! 🙃)
Classic angle. Oh boy in that clip you have something else very unique. David Crockett was maybe at best a 20 (TEW terms) as a color commentator, but he has met his match in Johnny Weaver. Weaver is classic! One of the few < 10 color guys ever. I had forgotten how bad he truly was

AWA 1989: A Financial Savior Is (Badly) Needed
in Total Extreme Wrestling 2020 Dynasties
Posted
While Wahoo might be older but it’s a nice story for him to reach the promise land finally. He won’t be a long term champion but you can get some matches out of him. At this point the problem in Kokina is your building a monster. Monsters don’t need belts especially while they are still learning. There is money in the chase, but you put the gold on him now you eventually have to beat him. Build and chase then when he finally gets a shot you have something. Wahoo with the belt is a perfect setup to Tully. Once Blanchard has the belt, you have ready made feuds with Windham, The Trooper and maybe even if he’s still a babyface, Nikita. Kokina can have a run with the Heritage title. Start slow, build slow and you have something special down the line.
Just some booking thoughts on the fly, but I can’t wait to see what you do.!
