  1. The Dirt Sheets The News from Around the World February AMERICAN NEWS Jim Duggan extended his contract with the WWF... Rumors from WCW indicate Sting is no longer looked at as "the guy" in WCW... Jake Roberts had his contract expire with the WWF and it led to a bidding war, with Roberts ultimately signing with WCW... Lex Luger also resigned with WCW, turning down an offer from Titan Sports, the WWF and World Bodybuilding Federation. This was apparent when Luger retained his WCW championship at SuperBrawl II against Vader... NWA World Champion Antonio Inoki is doing a stateside tour with WCW, whether this will see Inoki stop in some of the minor NWA companies or not remains to be seen, but he did retain his belt at SuperBrawl II against Dusty Rhodes... ESPN has moved GWF's timeslot, but not all is bad for the Dallas company as they signed a new deal with The Nashville Network to begin airing monthly supercards...The UWF had some title changes this month - Iceman King Parsons won the SportsChannel Television title, Cactus Jack won the Israeli belt and Len Denton won the Americas title, however Steve Williams has left the promotion to strictly focus on Japan and he may not be the last star to leave the UWF... JAPANESE NEWS As stated above, the NWA Champion Antonio Inoki is doing an American tour... In AJPW, Tsuyoshi Kikuchi became the new Junior Heavyweight champion... Terry Funk and Steve Williams were both announced as signing exclusive deals with AJPW, effectively ending Williams' commitment to the UWF in the US... New Japan also saw their juniors division title change hands as El Samurai is the newest IWGP Jr. Heavyweight champion... --- St. Patrick's Powerslam - March 17, 1992 Tickets on sale NOW at the Original Sports Bar in PHILADELPHIA DOUBLE MAIN EVENT ACTION "MAGNIFICENT" DON MURACO VS BAM BAM BIGELOW A PHILADELPHIA STREET FIGHT THE GILBERT BROTHERS VS JERRY LAWLER & "PRETTY" PAUL ROMA MR.

  2. Eastern Championship Wrestling presents Market Street Mayhem Live from the Original Sports Bar in Philadelphia, PA v. NWA Pennsylvania Tag Team Tournament - Opening Round Match The Confederacy v. The Samoan Swat Team w/ Kokina This is a wild brawl from the getgo with both teams going at each other from the bell to the bell. Kokina's appearance at ringside is intimidating, which is saying something as both Fatu and Samu are big guys too, but Kokina is just that much more massive. His ringside presence comes in handy too for the SST as whenever either member of the Confederacy think about bending the rules, Kokina is nearby. The Double Diving Headbutt on Jimmy Jannetty is enough to end the match, putting the Samoan Swat Team into the semi-finals. The Samoan Swat Team d. The Confederacy via Double Diving Headbutt, 6:09, 37 v. "Pretty" Paul Roma v. The Pegasus Kid Pegasus Kid is making his debut in ECW and is racking up air miles as he's a regular in New Japan, CWA in Germany and UWA in Mexico, so what's another date for the youngster? His opponent is Paul Roma, who has alligned himself against the Gilberts and with Jerry Lawler. This is a pretty technically solid matchup here, but the crowd is absolute not happy to see Roma as they seem to boo everything he does. Of course, he is the heel but this feels more like a complete disdain than anything. Perhaps the crowd will warm up to Roma's mat work. on the other end, Pegasus Kid absolutely got pops and showed what he's capable of in this fifteen minute match. It seemed like Pegasus Kid was going to get the victory after hitting a vicious German Suplex on Roma, but instead of going for the pin he went for a Diving Headbutt which missed, opening enough time for Roma to get to the top rope and nail Pegasus with the elbow drop. Paul Roma d. Pegasus Kid via Diving Elbow Drop, 15:04, 50 v. Taz v. Larry Winters The wildman Taz is taking on Larry Winters in Taz's Philly debut. Taz absolutely lives up to his gimmick of a savage, attacking and looking to almost torture Winters in this match up with his different suplexes, tosses and slams. The finish comes when Taz locks in the Kata Ha Jime on Winters, forcing Winters to begin yell out that he quits. Taz, however doesn't let go, even despite Dave Hebner's pleas for Taz to stop - Taz doesn't relent - forcing Hebner to overturn the decision and reward the win to Winters instead. This only furthers anger Taz who turns the Kata Ha Jime into a suplex! Larry Winters d. Taz via Overturned Referee Decision, 9:52, 32 v. NWA Pennsylvania Tag Team Tournament - Opening Round Match The Super Destroyers vs The Ebony Experience Another opening round match to determine the first tag champs sees the crowd favorites Ebony Experience. The brothers use the hot crowd to their advantage and much like last week, wrestle a smart tag match - outsmarting the Destroyers even when they attempted to cheat - with Stevie Ray and Booker T hitting the Towering Inferno on both Super Destroyers and Booker getting the pin. The Ebony Experience d. the Super Destroyer via Towering Inferno, 11:58, 27 v. Shane Douglas vs. Stevie Richards Douglas lets everyone know that class is in session and poor Stevie Richards is put on selling duty for Douglas who is both trying to work off some ring rust and work out some new moves not seen in his WWF/WCW runs. With that said, despite Richards being the obvious jobber - he manages to get a great hope spot in which the crowd pops for as Richards manages to pull together a string of moves that almost send Douglas not just to the mat, but down for the 3 count. But that was as close as he got as the near 3 count put Douglas into second gear, and the Superstar came in like a man possessed, ending the match with a Belly to Belly and a overly cocky pin. Shane Douglas d. Stevie Richards via Belly to Belly Suplex, 9:29, 44 v. Doomsday w/ Gary Hart v. Salvatore Bellomo Bellomo was one of the better known job guys in the WWF during the 80s but he's an imposing man. However, next to Doomsday all of that is gone because the nearly 7 foot tall monster in a mask is just a monster and he makes quick work of Bellomo here, taking the fight to Bellomo and after some stiff shots, an impressive chokeslam is enough for the monster to win. Doomsday d. Salvatore Bellomo via Chokeslam, 3:44, 24 v. Market Street Fight One Man Gang v. Kokina This match is an absolute wild one from the getgo with both men bringing weapons with them. One Man Gang has a trashcan full of different plunder while Kokina brought a baseball with him. The two are ready to go from the bell and weapons galore. Even some of the fans have gotten involved, attempting to hand things to Kokina or One Man Gang when nearby. This isn't the type of match Gang would normally work, but he absolutely thrives in the freedom to go anywhere and do anything, as does Kokina. We see some blood from One Man Gang when Kokina uses a beer bottle handed to him by a fan to bust open Gang and that's when all hell breaks loose as the sight and taste of his own blood motivates Gang to go into the attack. He and Kokina begin to brawl into the crowd as well when two fans attack Kokina with chairs! Gang high fives both men and yells at them to do it again and it's obvious those aren't fans but The Confederacy! It seems they are upset about Kokina being at ringside earlier and both men take turns hitting headshots to a downed Kokina! The Samoan Swat Team is rushing through the crowd to fight off the Confederacy who go to meet them, but it's long done for Kokina. One Man Gang hits the 747 Splash on the concrete to secure the victory. One Man Gang d. Kokina via 747 Splash, 15:43, 39 Overall Rating 38 Attendance 517people

For New Japan and World Championship Wrestling, this secondary belt gives a good chance for main eventers to hold a title while not occupying the main belt of the company. For smaller companies, this may give an opportunity for more touring championship defenses as WCW/JCP seemed to almost put the title in a deadlock...

The trainee isn't sure how to react and seems to apologize to Koloff, who takes the microphone off of Styles. He yells at the trainee to get out of the ring for his autograph time, and the trainee stutters as he points out he's just doing his jobs.

Styles, who is still mic'd up, shouts for security to get WWF's Shane Douglas out of here as the identified man continues the attack on Sammartino, irish whipping him hard into the stairs sending Sammartino head over heels!

In the tweet, from Luchadora Original, she declares that we will meet our queen. This was accompanied by a logo for "Reina de la Lucha Libre," which was trademarked in both Mexico and the United States at the end of 2018. However, since 2018 - nothing has happened with the trademark or the name, with this being the very first instance of it appearing since.</span></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Impact;"> </span></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Impact;"> Even more intriguing was one Wreddit user pointed out the time being 1:20 and a quick search of the date, January 20th, reveals that tickets are now on sale for a show titled "Reina de la Lucha Libre Volume 1 [El Torneo]. This of course has led on a rabbit trail for many, including this journalist. Sources at the arena confirmed a show was on sale, but only 300 tickets were available. Sources close to Luchadora Original have confirmed this is indeed a new promotion starting out of Mexico City which will be for luchadoras only - becoming the first female only promotion in Mexico.</span></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Impact;"> </span></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Impact;"> Who, and possibly, what all this means for Lucha Libre remains to be seen, but the successes and failures of female promotions both north of the border and across the pacific should get fans at least excited.

  12. This is the mod I am most excited for! Everything looks awesome, the detail so far is phenomenal! I also love the idea of giving to charity as well. Definitely gives the mod a good reason to exist.
  13. Removing Sky Sports 1/2/3 would be like removing ESPN 1/2. They’re different channels. Not sure that makes much sense?
  14. So running a puro fed with stables, I have seen it can be an organizational mess quickly. I think adding a filter by stable might clean that up a bit, if at all possible.
  15. News & Results from Week 4 of the Tour (February Week 1) Block A, Night 6 (Tuesday, Week 1 February) EXHIBITION: Miyazaki & Ishinori d. The Tokyo Mountains (Enomoto & Awatari) Jimmy Cox (15) d. Eikichi Itou (6) Taheiji Konoe (15) d. Dreadnought (3) James Diaz (9) d. Taiji Chajima (0) Kuniyoshi Kawamura (15) d. Washi Heat (3) Before his match, Jimmy Cox ran down Itou as another garbage wrestler but was interrupted by the American Psychos as Diaz commented Cox's one blemish came from the Young Lion! Edo Phoenix IV finally talked, as he declared he was preparing the ring for his debut during the final show of the tour, and placed an open challenge. Block B, Night 6 (Wednesday, Week 1 February) Yuta Isono (9) d. BIG BOSS EMPEROR (0) Omezo Shikitei (15) d. Kawanari Enomoto (9) Goro Hatamoto (6) d. Shuga Amano (3) Masashi Urogataya (18) d. Yunosuke Fujisaki (12) EXHIBITION: Miyazaki & Ishinori d. The Chaos Demons FROM RED CANVAS SOCIAL MEDIA With one night left for each block, here's where each block stands: In Block A Kuniyoshi Kawamura, Jimmy Cox & Taheiji Konoe have all clinched spots in the Elimination Tournament. Their seeds will be determined on the final night. If Cox wins versus Dreadnought, he will become the #1 seed as he holds wins over Kuniyoshi and Taheiji. However, if he were to lose the main event of Kuniyoshi Kawamura & Taheiji Konoe will determine the #1 seed. Regardless of what happens, the loser of the main event will become the #3 seed. As for the #4 seed, it currently is up for grabs. Washi Heat and James Diaz are both tied with 9 points. Washi faces the winless Taiji Chajima and a win clinches the 4th seed for him. However, if he were to lose his match, James Diaz would need to win or tie in his match with Eikichi Itou to claim the 4th spot. If both men end up tied in points, Washi Heat would gain the seed. In the B block, things are a little clearer. Masashi Urogataya claimed the #1 seed after his win on night 6. The #2 seed can be either claimed by Omezo Shikitei or Yunosuke Fujisaki, as both men face off. The winner will be the #2 seed and loser #3 seed. The #4 seed can be claimed by either Yuta Isono (after his win on night 6) or Kawanari Enomoto. Yuta Isono claims it if Enomoto loses in his match against Urogataya. Isono can also clinch it with a win against Shuga Amano. Enomoto only claims the #4 seed if he wins and Isono loses. Block A, Night 7 (Friday, Week 1 February) Dreadnought (6) d. Jimmy Cox (15) Eikichi Itou (7) and James Diaz (10) fought to a time-limit draw Washi Heat (12) d. Taiji Chajima (0) Taheiji Konoe (18) d. Kuniyoshi Kawamura Cox stated before his match that Dreadnought wasn't a garbage wrestler, he just wasn't good enough to share the ring. Cox got his comeuppance however, receiving his second league loss against another of Doug Peak's charges. After his draw, Diaz was obviously exhausted when the Goka Squad hit the ring. Before they could do anything, Diaz's fellow Psychos Doug Peak & Dreadnought evened the odds. Yuta Isono simply smirked, reminding Diaz that Yuta would be rookie of the year. Edo Phoenix IV came out and adorned the ring steps with flowers. Block B, Night 7 (Saturday, Week 1 February) EXHIBITION: The Chaos Demons d. Cloaked in Shadows Omezo Shikitei (18) d. Yunosuke Fujisaki (12) Goro Hatamoto (9) d. BIG BOSS EMPEROR (0) Yuta Isono (12) d. Shuga Amano (3) Masashi Urogotaya (21) d. Kawanari Enomoto (9) EXHIBITION: Jimmy Cox & Yasuhide Tayama d. Taheiji Konoe & Kuniyoshi Kawamura After the main event of Urogataya & Enomoto, Jimmy Cox came out and introduced his newest ally: Yasuhide Tayama. He then challenged any 2 "garbage wrestlers" to a match, which Block A opponents Konoe & Kawamura answered.

It is expected he will team with one of the GCG alumni, although probably not long term with Cox. Their match at Night 7 of Block B showed neither had chemistry with each other. There is also chance of Tayama getting a singles run as well. Nothing is finalized if there will be a GCG stable like there is a WEXXV stable.

James Diaz (0) Taheiji Konoe (6) d. Eikichi Itou (3) Jimmy Cox cut a promo before his match against the young lion, pointing out his undefeated record versus "garbage" wrestlers as he put it. Yuta Osono and the Goka Squad was out before James Diaz's match and mocked Diaz for making the "Return of the Monster" so underwhelming. The presence of the Goka Squad at ringside was too much for Diaz to deliver the W. Block B, Night 3 (Thursday, Week 3 January) Kawanari Enomoto (3) d. Shuga Amano (3) Omezo Shikitei (6) d. Goro Hatamoto (3) Yunosuke Fujisaki (6) d. BIG BOSS EMPEROR (0) Masashi Urogataya (9) d. Yuta Isono (6) EXHIBITION: Doug Peak & Tornado Nagai d. The Goka Squad (Miyazaki & Ishinomori) During the show, Edo Phoenix IV appeared and came to the ring. At the ring, he kissed the mat before heading back to the backstage. The Goka Squad came out before Yuta Isono's match, as the three hyped their two matches later in the night, which Yuta said would be a guaranteed win. Block A, Night 4 (Saturday, Week 3 January) Kuniyoshi Kawamura (12) d. Taiji Chajima (0) Eikichi Itou (6) d. Dreadnought (3) James Diaz (3) d. Jimmy Cox (9) Taheiji Konoe (9) d. Washi Heat (6) Before their match, as tend to be, Jimmy Cox came out and declared himself the presumed winner. This fired up Diaz who said he was tired of people overlooking him! Edo Phoenix IV came out again and bowed to referee Kazuko Hiroyuki before returning to the back. With two weeks left in League Play, who will come out on top? RED CANVAS on Twitter announced the top four wrestlers of each league would meet in a single elimination tournament, with the finals of each block being televised in back to back nights on Shogun TV and the final night of the tournament and other matches airing live on Shogun as well. While not featured on any tour shows yet, RED CANVAS is promoting a robust tag division on social media. It is said Dreadnought & James Diaz will be teaming as the New American Psychos and Shingen Miyazaki & Sozen Ishinori are the Goka Squad. Other tag teams include the Modern Ninja Killers (Battle Sakata & Eikichi Itou), The Tokyo Mountains (Kawanari Enomoto & the newly signed Shogo Awatari), the newly reunited Chaos Demons, and the young lions Cloaked in Shadows (Prowler Igarashi & Shadow Ichimori). Everyone is tight lipped over Edo Phoenix IV and his antics. It is believed this is to reinvent the Edo Phoenix gimmick. PGHW's SATO apparently walked out on the company.

Kajiwara has not left World Level Wrestling and RED CANVAS is said to have a strong relationship with WLW. RED CANVAS seems to be a different approach than WLW as well, where as WLW is of course Lucha inspired, RC seems to be inspired by hard hitting action. In a press conference, lead booker Jimmy Cox described it as the spiritual successors to both GCG and WEXXV.</span></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Century Gothic';"> </span></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:'Century Gothic';"> With that said, there was a post on Cox's and RC's twitter accounts of the image above. A press conference was held on January 2nd with the 16 workers in the image above alongside RED CANVAS CEO Taka Kajiwara. Kajiwara announced that the RC-1 looked to become as relevant as the PGHW Elite Series, or Burning Hammer's Best of the Super Juniors, becoming a premier event for the hardest hitters in the

  22. RED CANVAS - 赤い帆布 Following the downfall of Golden Canvas Grappling and Warrior Engine XXV, there was a gap in the country. At least, that's what Taka Kajiwara thought. The long time heel manager and announcer from World Level Wrestling began brainstorming with some financial backers and an idea was born: RED CANVAS. Combining the old school puroresu of GCG and the hard hitting action from WEXXV, RED CANVAS would be a modern take on what GCG was, moving even past what Black Canvas was doing. At least, that was the thought. And the man Kajiwara trusted to run it all? "The Immortal" Jimmy Cox. The former GCG World Champion and innovator of the Immortal Driver moved stateside in 2017 after the closure of GCG was tapped to lead, not just by Kajiwara but also by current WLW Owner Kaneie Komine. Kajiwara agreed to stay under contract with WLW and sought the advice of the former Burning Hammer & current WLW Owner who had plenty of advice, and with Cox being stateside, Komine felt the gap that Kajiwara was trying to fill would be best led by a Gaijin who had Gaijin contacts. So in January of 2020, the company was born.
  23. So I've been playing through an FCW save and got a tv deal. Now, I know there's financial reasons to go live vs. taped, but I was thinking: why isn't there more pros and cons? Taped broadcasts might have a lower rating vs. a live show, especially if the show itself bombs (IE: if you're pop is 50 but you have a 35 rated show) but if the show say has a highly rated main event or the show itself is highly rated or there's a lot of star power (IE how pre booking works, but for taped shows?), maybe the taped show would have a higher rating because people might want to see that (ala Mankind winning the World title on Raw). Not sure if this is already in consideration or not, but I've noticed viewership has been pretty close between taped and live broadcasts so thought I'd throw it on the board.
  24. I cannot find anyone in my quick look, but I didn't look at the tag divisions. Angry Gilmore would be able to do it, as would KC Glenn (Gilmore is a heavyweight now, Glenn can be bumped up). Why is Kid San Juan's mask self owned and not company owned?
