It don't look good with Matt Borne needing a win to get him established, but I can't help it. I liked Tonga back in the day. Tony Atlas always a fan favorite. I don't see The Dynamite Express ending their winning streak yet. I'm basically hoping Dibiase wins this one, although I like Duggan. Pluss, I want to see him make his own stable. Orndormania... nuf said. Piper doesn't ever have to lose.... but I don't expect it to be clean. I don't see Ricky losing the strap against Muraco at this point, but you never know.

Ritchardo Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Tonga Kid vs Matt Bourne Tonga needs to pay the dues a little. Maniac Matt's new in town and has to be established as a threat. Tony Atlas vs Java Ruuk Java Ruuk is and was an interesting experiment but I just don't buy him taking the win over Mr USA "The Dynamite Express" Rick McGraw & Scotty McGhee vs "The West Coast Playboys" Brutus Beefcake & Buddy Rose Speaking of interesting experiments... I love what you're doing with The Dynamite Express but I also love the sound of the West Coast Playboys - that's got the makings of a real Dream Team to me... George "The Animal" Steele vs "Big" John Studd Don't care! I can buy Studd as an IC challenger wheras George going for the big one... it just doesn't feel right Ted Dibiase vs Jim Duggan Talk about potentially going all sorts of ways?!! I have to plump for Ted here WWWF World Title Match (Challenger) BlackJack Mulligan vs (Champion) Paul Orndorff If Mulligan wins, I'll eat his hat. Barry Windham, Mike Rotundo & Pedro Morales vs Roddy Piper, Bob Orton & Greg Valentine Another tough one to call but a loss to this team sets up a potential tag title match in the near future. WWWF Intercontinental Title Match (Champion) Ricky Steamboat vs (Challenger) The Magnificent Muraco Although I wouldn't put money on it... there's a lot of strong faces coming through in the upper midcard and an Ondorff/Steamboat feud could be money... But I can still see Dibiase going heel and turning on The Dragon at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olympia Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Tonga Kid vs Matt Bourne Brat Pack starts racking up some wins Tony Atlas vs Java Ruuk "The Dynamite Express" Rick McGraw & Scotty McGhee vs "The West Coast Playboys" Brutus Beefcake & Buddy Rose like the Dynamite Express and their wins set them up for this very moment - to put over up and coming teams. LOVE the West Coast Playboys and look forward to their match against Windham-rotundo George "The Animal" Steele vs "Big" John Studd Big John just lost by COR to Missing Link for crying out loud. Unless Studd is leaving, I think that losing streak ends here againt the Animal Ted Dibiase vs Jim Duggan wow - most intriguing match of the night. Very early in this feud/angle. I'm going to look for a time limit draw or other type of non-finish. Can you have these two square off in a BEST DRESSED MAN contest???? Twist on their feud in Mid-South as Ted is baby face this time. I'm thinking you can have a lot of fun with this as it develops. WWWF World Title Match (Challenger) BlackJack Mulligan vs (Champion) Paul Orndorff Good match for the champ. Mulligan is a good big man to push him, but a true viable threat Barry Windham, Mike Rotundo & Pedro Morales vs Roddy Piper, Bob Orton & Greg Valentine heels win, agree this helps set them up for tag title match WWWF Intercontinental Title Match (Champion) Ricky Steamboat vs (Challenger) The Magnificent Muraco changing of the guard? Steamboat has been champ for a while. Muraco is in danger of getting lost and another IC title run will do wonders for him. Lots of new good upper mid faces to provide good challenges and possibly pass the belt over to while Steamboat gears up for a world title chase.
