angeldelayette Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/angeldelayetteposter.jpg [The year is 1989 and we are more than halfway through the year when Vince McMahon gets a revelation. He goes to and speaks with the members who run the USA network. What if they ran a television show live on the USA network every Monday night instead of the taped one they have always run? WWF Prime Time Wrestling live each and every week where anything can and does happen. This means that nobody knows ahead of time the results of the matches. This means that there are no second takes, no second chances. The man who put it all on the line when he created WrestleMania would be putting it all on the line again. Could a live pro wrestling show survive in 1989? All other shows for the moment are suspended, including Wrestling Challenge and Superstars of Wrestling, as the complete focus is on this new Prime Time Wrestling. The landscape of professional wrestling is about to change. The change begins with the arrival of the new live Prime Time Wrestling and continues with pay-per-view events each and every month, including WWF's Backlash on the last Sunday of September. The mood is about to change. Will this be a success or will this bring the World Wrestling Federation to its knees?] OOC NOTE: This diary will have a prediction contest. However, it will be slightly different from my USPW American Wrestling diary. The difference is that there won't be any 24 hour warning or anything like that. I will be posting the shows as soon as I have them written up so the card prediction list is basically the 24 hour warning. I will wait at the very least 24 hours before posting the card. It could be longer. It could be a lot longer. But I just wanted to give everyone a head's up on this first post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick21985 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 WWF PRIME TIME WRESTLING Monday Week 1 September 1989 Andre the Giant vs. Barry Horowitz An easy win for the Giant I would hope, the only way Horowitz is going to win this one is by a DQ and that will only be if Andre just refuses to stop beating the living daylights out of him and I can't see Andre being that stupid. The Bolsheviks (Nikolai Volkoff and Boris Zhukov) vs. Demolition (Ax and Smash) Demolition are dominating around this time period so would expect them to pick up the win. The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers (Jacques Rougeau and Raymond Rougeau) vs. The Young Stallions (Jim Powers and Paul Roma) This is the toughest match to call out of this card as it really depends on which direction you are going to go with Paul Roma because Roma to me was at his best in Power and Glory with Hercules. I'm going to go with The Rougeaus as I prefer them as a team and were underated. The Twin Towers vs. The Bushwackers Any easy win for the Towers as not a fan of the bushwhackers and they should win this for the simple reason that Slick has one of the best theme tunes ever. Silly reason I know but just like the towers better in any case. Bad News Brown vs. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts A DDT will be the difference in this match Rick Martel vs. Ronnie Garvin Martel should pick up the win here as not a huge fan of Garvin WWF World Heavyweight Title Match: 'The Immortal' Hulk Hogan defends vs. 'Macho Man' Randy Savage Cant see Hogan losing in the first show but maybe a DQ finish here to set up the PPV but i'm going to go for a Hogan win with some interference possibly from Zeus. ...

borman_48 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Andre the Giant vs. Barry Horowitz Andre. The most one sided affair in WWF history. The Bolsheviks (Nikolai Volkoff and Boris Zhukov) vs. Demolition (Ax and Smash) The Bolsheviks are very much jobbers to the stars by now, and Demolition is white hot. The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers (Jacques Rougeau and Raymond Rougeau) vs. The Young Stallions (Jim Powers and Paul Roma) If you push the Stallions over the Rougeaus, I will revolt! The Twin Towers vs. The Bushwackers I'm going with Bushwackers via DQ. The Towers will obviously be better for you in the long term, but the 'Wackers will probably be useful for you as long as you let them be. Bad News Brown vs. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts Poor Bad News never quite made it to the main event, although he had some fueds with the top guys. You could probably get him up there, but keeping The Snake strong is safer. Rick Martel vs. Ronnie Garvin Rugged Ronnie is living on his short NWA World title riegn for years at this point, The Model was a great gimmick as well. WWF World Heavyweight Title Match: 'The Immortal' Hulk Hogan defends vs. 'Macho Man' Randy Savage I call shenanigans. Although would be one heck of a bang to start out a new live TV show with to have the World Title change hands on the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beejus Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Will make one note here, I don't think it was wise to kill off the other two shows. Maybe it's just how I play TEW, but I think everyone NEEDS to have a good B-show in order to build up the young guys without having them bomb out the main show. But, it's your game, that's just my two cents. Anyways, on with the predictions. WWF PRIME TIME WRESTLING Monday Week 1 September 1989 Andre the Giant vs. Barry Horowitz Barry doesn't even BEGIN to stand a chance in this one. The Bolsheviks (Nikolai Volkoff and Boris Zhukov) vs. Demolition (Ax and Smash) There really is just no mileage at all in the Russians. Expecting Arn and Tully to show during and/or after this one. The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers (Jacques Rougeau and Raymond Rougeau) vs. The Young Stallions (Jim Powers and Paul Roma) Much like above, there's really just nothing all that great to the Stallions, especially since you have the Rockers kicking around. The Twin Towers vs. The Bushwackers TOWERS SMASH~ Bad News Brown vs. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts Though I will admit, I wouldn't mind at all seeing Bad News as like a dark horse of this diary... someone completely out of the blue to get a nice little push. Rick Martel vs. Ronnie Garvin UNlike earlier, there is a lot of mileage in Rick Martel. He's a guy who, once the title drifts away from guys like Warrior, could be someone you can build the IC division around. Do so, and you definitely will have a reader here (PS: Not like you wouldn't anyways) WWF World Heavyweight Title Match: 'The Immortal' Hulk Hogan defends vs. 'Macho Man' Randy Savage The real question is how will live TV react to the really coked out sounding interviews that guys like Hogan and Savage used to deliver when there's no filter?

joehelmer Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Andre the Giant vs. Barry Horowitz I've got two words for you: One sided!

juggaloninjalee Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Andre the Giant vs. Barry Horowitz I'd love for one more title run out of the legend. The Bolsheviks (Nikolai Volkoff and Boris Zhukov) vs. Demolition (Ax and Smash) Demolition should be the dominant tag team until LOD show up. The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers (Jacques Rougeau and Raymond Rougeau) vs. The Young Stallions (Jim Powers and Paul Roma) Jim Powers and Paula Roma could have been really entertaining as singles wrestlers I think well into the 90s if booked well. The Twin Towers vs. The Bushwackers The Bushwackers were nothing more than jobbers for the most part. Bad News Brown vs. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts Jake the Snake Roberts would be in the HOF now if he wasn't a drug addict. Hope you can get him clean and keep him that way. Rick Martel vs. Ronnie Garvin Rick Martel was a great heel in this time period. WWF World Heavyweight Title Match: 'The Immortal' Hulk Hogan defends vs. 'Macho Man' Randy Savage Hulk Hogan is the immortal! I was a Hulkamaniac at this time. Hogan will run this diary for a bit and he should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go with The Rougeaus as I prefer them as a team and were underated. Power & Glory vs The Orient Express! Classic tag team wrestling. In fact my friend, if you haven't got Hercules, hire him at the same time as Akio Sato and Pat Tanaka (Kato was okay, I guess) and make this feud happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angeldelayette Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 Thanks for the predictions so far everyone. The show of support really does mean the world to me. As far as Power & Glory goes, I will be the first to admit that they had one of the best tag team finishers of all time in the PowerPlex. Will they become a part of this incarnation of the WWF? Only time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ritchardo Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Didn't actually notice this had started... hence the PM! D'oh! Anyway... Andre the Giant vs. Barry Horowitz Andre may be winding down but he's not going to go without a fight... the biggest star in the world (literally and figuratively) is not about to lose to Barry Horrowitz - I don't care if the entire roster jump him before, after and during the match. Andre. The Bolsheviks (Nikolai Volkoff and Boris Zhukov) vs. Demolition (Ax and Smash) Here comes the Ax. Here comes the Smasher! The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers (Jacques Rougeau and Raymond Rougeau) vs. The Young Stallions (Jim Powers and Paul Roma) Mountie > Power & Glory The Twin Towers vs. The Bushwackers Number Two heel team have to be kept strong against comedy JTTS Bad News Brown vs. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts Stiff Fest! It won't be easy for the Snake but he gets the win Rick Martel vs. Ronnie Garvin Both men were involved in looooooong feuds at this point... I hope they're dispensed with quicker here than they were in reality. WWF World Heavyweight Title Match: 'The Immortal' Hulk Hogan defends vs. 'Macho Man' Randy Savage No contest. Can't see Hogan dropping the belt at this first show (particularly as there's no one free for Savage to feud with at the top of the card) but at the same time you can't be jobbing out Randy again! Say it ain't so! Draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, it's your game, that's just my two cents. Anyways, on with the predictions. I can be honest and say that the real reason why I killed the other two shows was so that I only had one show to book per week. That's just easier on me in the long run and to make this a long-run diary. I based it, also, kind of on SWF and TCW in the Cornellverse in that they only have one show a week as well so I knew it couldn't be too bad, right? And I do have a different way to build the younger guys. I signed USWA as a developmental territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Rick hands the microphone back to Jesse and then walks off to the back taking in the boos from the crowd.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/WWF.jpg Match #4 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/akeem.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/bigbossman3.jpg w/ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/slick.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/VS.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/BushwackerButch.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/BushwackerLuke.jpg The Twin Towers vs. The Bushwackers [This was definitely a brawling match between these two teams. The fans were really behind the Bushwackers in this match. But it was even difficult for the two of them to move Akeem and this made Slick happy outside the ring. After a little over six minutes of action, the Big Bossman caught Bushwacker Butch with his Boss Man Slam and then made the cover: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winners: The Twin Towers (Via Pinfall @ 6:35) Match Rating: C http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/WWF.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/jacquesrougeau2.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/raymondrougeau.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/jimmyhart3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/jimneidhart2.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/BretHart19.jpg [Gorilla Monsoon let everyone know that we are scheduled to hear from former WWF World Tag Team Champions The Hart Foundation here tonight. We head backstage to hear from them but what we find are Bret Hart and Jim Neidhart lying on the ground in the interview area. Jacques and Raymond Rougeau are putting the boots to them while Jimmy Hart calls out instructions through his megaphone. Jacques takes the megaphone and hits Neidhart over the head with it! What a blow! Neither of these two teams have liked each other since the Rougeaus teamed up with Jimmy Hart and it shows here tonight folks! Remember, anything can happen on the new live WWF Prime Time Wrestling!] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/WWF.jpg Match #5 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/badnewsbrown.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/VS.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/jakeroberts5.jpg Bad News Brown vs. Jake 'The Snake' Roberts [Here is one match that the crowd really got into as Bad News Brown stepped into the ring to face the return of the man known as Jake 'The Snake' Roberts. The Snake was last seen attacked by The Million Dollar Man and Virgil. This will mark his first match in his return here to the World Wrestling Federation. Bad News tried to take advantage of the hurt back of Roberts early on with a double sledge and a backbreaker. Brown got in a few kicks to the back but the crowd got behind Roberts with chants and claps and stomps of their feet. Roberts fought his way out of a reverse chinlock and took down Brown with a belly to back suplex. The Snake got to his feet first and took down Brown with a short-arm clothesline. He caught Bad News with a knee lift as the fans began chanting 'DDT, DDT, DDT!' Roberts milked this for about a minute before hooking Brown -- DDT! Roberts made the cover: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winner: Jake 'The Snake' Roberts (Via Pinfall @ 7:04) Match Rating: B+ [As Roberts got the victory, he rose to his feet and walked over to his corner and the snake bag. He pulled it to the center of the ring and opened it up, revealing...Damian! He slides Damian on top of Bad News Brown and looks to the cheering crowd for a moment. A wonderful return for the man known as The Snake.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/WWF.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/teddibease3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/virigil.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/jacktunney.jpg [We head backstage once again where the camera moves down a hallway and then pauses in front of a closed door. That closed door has a sign on it that says: Jack Tunney 'WWF President.' It must be his office! The door slightly opens and we focus inside where the Million Dollar Man and Virgil are standing in front of the desk where Jack Tunney is sitting.] Million Dollar Man "So then we have a deal, Tunney?" Jack Tunney "This isn't right and you know it." Million Dollar Man "The price is right, isn't it? After all, do you want the entire world to know your little secret?" Jack Tunney "Of course not. So, yes, we have a deal." Million Dollar Man "That's the Million Dollar Man facing the WWF World Heavyweight Champion next week right here on Prime Time Wrestling no matter who wins, right?" Jack Tunney "That's right, Ted. Now, please, go before anyone sees you in here." [The Million Dollar Man turns and sees the camera. He tosses his head back and does his evil laughter for a moment as he motions to Virgil. Virgil steps ahead of him and as the Million Dollar Man passes the camera he looks right into it.] Million Dollar Man "Everybody's got a price for the Million Dollar Man." [DiBiase walks off and the camera focuses in on Jack Tunney. The WWF President shakes his head and looks down at his desk, obviously upset over what just happened.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/WWF.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/rickrude2.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/roddypiper89.jpg [Anything can happen in the World Wrestling Federation and especially right here on the first ever live edition of WWF Prime Time Wrestling. This is no truer than this moment as we are taken outside the Arena at Harbor Yard where Rick Rude and Roddy Piper are doing battle! The two are exchanging blows back and forth with punches being thrown on both ends. Rude sends Piper up against the side of the building face-first! Piper comes back with a few elbows and then body slams Rude on the hood of a car! The car alarm goes off, blaring in the background as Piper throws punches to Rude. Rude slides down the car and security and officials come running outside to seperate these two. What is going to happen at Backlash?] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/WWF.jpg Match #6 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/rickmartel5.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/VS.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/ronniegarvin.jpg Rick Martel vs. Ronnie Garvin [A definite contrast of styles here in the semi main event as the man known as The Model takes on the man with the hands of stone Rugged Ronnie Garvin. Martel definitely has the advantage in the technical department and he uses that to his advantage early on, keeping Garvin on his toes. He takes down Garvin with a dropkick and then an armdrag. But he focuses much of his attention on the back of Garvin, showing some good psychology there. Martel made a mistake of charging Garvin in the corner and he took a few good punches to that chiseled face of his. Garvin scored a two count after a sharp punch to the skull. The only thing that stopped it from being a three count was Martel's foot on the bottom rope. Greg Valentine came down to ringside and served as a major distraction to Ronnie Garvin. This distraction gave Martel the momentum shift that he needed in this match. He was able to make a comeback on Garvin and bring him down with a backbreaker and then locked on his patented Boston Crab. Garvin struggled but he was placed in the center of the ring. He had no choice but to give up as Greg Valentine smiled from ringside.] Winner: Rick Martel (Via Submission @ 9:46) Match Rating: B http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/WWF.jpg Match #7 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/hulkhogan5.jpg w/ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/misselizabeth3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/VS.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/randysavage5.jpg w/ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/sherrimartel.jpg WWF World Heavyweight Title Match 'The Immortal' Hulk Hogan defends vs. 'Macho Man' Randy Savage [Our main event for this evening and it should be a great one! The crowd rose in boos when the Macho Man's music began to play. Randy Savage walked out with Sensational Sherri behind him. He climbs inside the ring and moves to the turnbuckles, taking in the boos from the second turnbuckle. He talks with Sherri for the moment as the music of the WWF World Heavyweight Champion begins to play. Hulk Hogan steps through the curtain but he is not alone. He has Randy's ex-wife Miss Elizabeth in his corner! The crowd goes wild at seeing her even louder than before! Jesse Ventura complains at ringside about not even being able to hear himself think! Hulk Hogan, though, looks a little worse for wear as he walks out from the attack earlier on. But he makes it inside the ring and hands the belt to referee Earl Hebner.] [From the outset of this match, these two men prove why they are two of the best wrestlers in the world today. They have a great chemistry in the ring where the two of them bring out the best in each other. Savage started the match strong working over Hogan, specifically on his back due to the attack earlier tonight by Zeus. He tossed Hogan out of the ring and distracted the official while Sherri raked her nails across Hogan's back! The crowd booed the cheating but if the referee didn't see it then what can be said, right? Miss Elizabeth came around helping Hogan up but Savage came off the turnbuckles with a double axehandle outside the ring! Hogan fell back down outside and Savage stared down with Miss Elizabeth for a moment. Miss Elizabeth backed away from her ex and Savage tossed Hogan back inside the ring. The Macho Man got a couple of near falls as he continued to work over the man known as the Immortal. He nails Hogan with an atomic drop and then bounces off the ropes bringing Hogan down with a high knee to the face. Savage points toward the turnbuckles and begins to climb up. He sets up Hogan and leaps -- Flying Elbowdrop! Savage nails Hogan with the elbow! We could see a new WWF World Heavyweight Champion! Savage makes the cover: 1 -- 2 -- 3! He did it! Randy Savage is the NEW WWF World Heavyweight Champion! NO! WAIT! The referee signals that it was only 2! Hogan kicked out at the last possible second! Hogan sits up to his knees and Savage begins throwing punches which Hogan no-sells! Hogan gets to his feet, absorbing in the 'Hogan, Hogan, Hogan' chants from the crowd as he paces around the ring. Hogan stops and turns to Savage pointing a finger at him! He blocks a Savage punch! Punch! Punch! Punch! He sends Savage to the ropes -- Big Boot! Savage lands in the center of the ring. Hogan cups his ear, listening to the roar of the crowd! Hogan bounces off the ropes -- Atomic Legdrop! Hogan makes the cover, hooking the leg: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winner: Hulk Hogan (Via Pinfall @ 10:36; Hulk Hogan retains the WWF World Heavyweight title) Match Rating: A http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/WWF/zeus.jpg [Hogan stands up and gets his arm raised by referee Earl Hebner! What a huge win for the Hulkster! Hogan begins to go into his celebratory posedown when he spots Zeus walking down to the ring. Zeus steps in over the top rope and Hogan meets him with punches! Zeus no-sells the punches! He brings Hogan down with a headbutt! Zeus grabs Hogan in a chokehold! Hogan squirms and fights trying to break free of the choke but Zeus does NOT let go! Hogan's face begins to turn different colors as people come running in from the back to try and force Zeus to release the hold. The show comes to a close with a close-up of Zeus choking out Hulk Hogan on the mat.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
