angeldelayette Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 The Reason And The Goal I am sure that many of you simply looked at the title of this thread and there was a collective groan. Just how many diaries is this guy gonna have? Isn't this just overkill? Just how many times is he going to create new diaries? Does he really expect us to read this? These are probably common questions moving through everyone's mind right now. They are fair questions. I can only hope that some of you will stick with me here as I have a goal in mind. Since the first TEW and my Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling diaries, I have been a fan of the promotion that became WCW. But the fact of the matter remains that I have not completed one full in-game year with any promotion, including NWA. So that has become my mission now. That has become my focus. That has become my drive, my need, my passion. That is The Goal. Why a second diary? Why NWA 1989? Quite simply because this promotion is the most fun I've had outside of USPW. It is the second promotion that I always fall back to. It's a promotion that I know almost like the back of my hand in a way. Out of all the promotions, it's the second promotion that I enjoy playing and the number one RW promotion. And I really enjoy running a RW promotion alongside a Cornellverse one. Now you have come to the beginning... P.S. Constructive criticism and praise are welcomed herein about almost anything. I will listen to all comments/thoughts/ideas/etc. However, comments such as 'you create too many diaries,' 'you restart too much,' and anything along those lines of thinking will be ignored as this is the current plan and I am looking forward to one year in-game in both diaries I am running. And any comments about any of my other diaries can please be sent to pm, rather than posted on here as well. I would appreciate that and thank you ahead of time.

angeldelayette Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/powerhour.jpg NWA POWER HOUR! Thursday Week 1 September 1989 Location: American Bank Center (Mid South) Attendance: 10,000 Overall Rating: B+ TV Rating: 1.55 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/luger.jpg [This edition of the NWA Power Hour begins with the crowd booing the arrival of the NWA United States Heavyweight Champion 'The Total Package' Lex Luger. Luger comes down to the ring ignoring the fans and entering inside with a microphone in hand. He tells the fans to shut their mouths and listen to the man with the greatest body in the National Wrestling Alliance. He talks about holding the United States Heavyweight title since May and he's beaten the best there is in this business, including men like Ricky Steamboat. Right now there's not another wrestler in the NWA that is good enough to have a match with him. But the music that plays, interrupting his speech shows that someone disagrees with him.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/JYD.jpg [The man known as 'JYD', Junkyard Dog, comes out to a roaring ovation from the crowd. JYD gets up in the face of Luger and talks about how he hasn't received a title shot lately. So why doesn't the Total Package step in the ring with the Dog? Because every dog has his day and Fall Brawl will be the day of the Junkyard Dog. Luger answers the challenge with a 'yes!' and then he strikes JYD with a clothesline! He puts the boots to his challenger again and again before picking him up and sending him to the ropes -- forearm shot -- ducked! JYD grabs Luger -- Headbutt! Headbutt! Headbutt! Luger goes down and rolls out of the ring, grabbing the U.S. title belt! The crowd cheers as JYD goes down on all fours in the ring, barking at Luger.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg Match #1 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/MichaelHayes7.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/jimmygarvin.jpg vs. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/brianpillman.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/tomzenk.jpg NWA World Tag Team Titles Match The Fabulous Freebirds defend vs. Flyin' Brian and Z-Man [Our opening contest here on NWA Power Hour is for the NWA World Tag Team titles. Flyin' Brian and Z-Man show some definite chemistry teaming together in this match as they take on the veteran Freebirds. The fans like the team as the cameras show one sign in particular for Flyin' Brian: 'Air Pillman!' The match, though, is mostly dominated by Michael Hayes and Jimmy Garvin. Hayes and Garvin play to the crowd as they have Brian down inside the ring. Hayes takes Z-Man off the apron with a punch and then the Freebirds set up Brian -- Spike Piledriver! Hayes makes the cover: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winners: The Fabulous Freebirds (Via Pinfall @ 4:37) Match Rating: C+ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/SteveWilliams2.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/bambambigelow.jpg [up next the announcers let us know that we are going to have a very special interview with 'Dr. Death' Steve Williams! Williams walks out to a very good ovation from the crowd but he doesn't make it very far. Instead about halfway down the ramp he is assaulted from behind by the man known as the 'Beast From The East' Bam Bam Bigelow! Bigelow rams Williams into the guardrail and then picks him up and body slams him on the padding on the floor! Williams grabs his back, though, he is concerned one of the toughest men in professional wrestling. Bigelow drops an elbow and then stands over 'Dr. Death' with a little glare right down at him. Bigelow absorbs the boos from the crowd, shaking his head and yelling at a few fans before he walks off.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/barrywindham2.jpg [The crowd gets really pumped up when a video begins to play of a returning wrestler to the NWA. That returning wrestler is none other than Barry Windham! Windham was last seen as a member of the Four Horsemen back in March of this year. The video announces his return this Saturday night on World Championship Wrestling! But what will he have to say upon his return?] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg Match #2 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/billirwin2.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/scotthall4.jpg vs. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/RickSteiner3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/ScottSteiner22.jpg w/ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/missyhyatt.jpg Bill Irwin and Scott Hall vs. The Steiners [Our second matchup of the night is more tag team action as The Steiners step into the ring to take on the unusual team of 'Wild' Bill Irwin and 'Magnum' Scott Hall. The Steiners take care of business early and often in this match with both Irwin and Hall falling to moves like the Steinerline, overhead belly to belly suplexes. Scott drops Hall with a tilt-a-whirl slam and then tags out to Rick, bringing Hall up on his shoulders. Rick climbs the turnbuckles -- Steiner Bulldog on Hall brings Hall crashing to the mat. Rick makes the quick cover: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winners: The Steiners (Via Pinfall @ 5:17) Match Rating: C http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/animal3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/hawk3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/paulellering.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/sidvicious3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/danspivey2.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/theadorerlong.jpg [We are taken to another video. This one was taken earlier tonight in the parking lot of this very building! The video shows The Road Warriors along with their manager Paul Ellering brawling outside with The Skyscrapers along with their manager Teddy Long! Ellering, of course, gets the upper hand on Long but neither the Road Warriors nor The Skyscrapers can gain a solid upper hand on each other. Officials come running, including police officers, to break up this battle between two of the toughest tag teams in professional wrestling. It is announced that these teams will do battle at Fall Brawl in a pinfalls count anywhere match!] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg Match #3 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/boborton.jpg vs. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/oleanderson.jpg 'Cowboy' Bob Orton vs. Ole Anderson [Our next match of the evening features two strong brawling heavy hitters that have been around for quite awhile. The match is our semi main event but could have been a main event anywhere in the country. The match was back and forth for only a little more than five minutes. Anderson set up Orton for the Gourdbuster but Orton used the ropes and then gave Anderson a thumb to the eyes. Anderson knocked into the referee, which gave a clear opening for some cheating tactics from Orton. Orton reached into his trunks and pulled something out, smashing Anderson with what is revealed to be a roll of quarters as the quarters sprinkle the mat! Orton grabs the referee and brings him down, making the cover: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winner: 'Cowboy' Bob Orton (Via Pinfall @ 5:04) Match Rating: C+ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/kevinsullivan.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/mikerotundo.jpg [We are taken to a video of a locker room setting where Kevin Sullivan and Mike Rotundo are warming up as Rotundo is in tonight's main event. Sullivan works on psyching up Rotundo, telling him to go out there and get this win for the Varsity Club and for the University of Syracuse! Rotundo looks at Sullivan and nods, dropping into an amateur wrestling stance. Sullivan smiles and pats Rotundo on the back. He tells him that tonight he is going to walk away from the ring having beaten the NWA World Heavyweight Champion on the hottest place in professional wrestling: the NWA. When Rotundo walks away, Sullivan asks himself why he doesn't have a match with the World Champ.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/sting4.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/jimross2.jpg [before we go to our main event of the evening, we are, instead, taken to an interview recorded earlier today between the man called Sting and announcer Jim Ross. Of course Jim Ross asks Sting about The Great Muta and the NWA World Television title that was held up following the controversial ending to a Sting/Muta match. Sting says that the J-Tex Corporation likes to cheat and they managed to make a bit of a fool out of the Stinger. Well, not anymore. At Fall Brawl, Sting is going to prove that he can beat Muta in a one on one environment. If the J-Tex Corporation wants to get involved? Then he is going to make sure that he has some friends to watch his back.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg Match #4 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/mikerotundo.jpg w/ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/kevinsullivan.jpg vs. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/ricflairc.jpg Non Title Mike Rotundo vs. Ric Flair [Our main event contest for the evening and this is a good one as two of the top technical wrestlers in the business go at it one on one. Flair starts off strong against Rotundo, bringing him back in the corner and lighting up his chest with knife edge chops! Rotundo takes three and then moves out of the corner, quickly bringing Flair down with a double leg takedown. The two men move down to the mat and exchange holds again and again with neither man maintaining an advantage for very long until some well-timed interference by Kevin Sullivan. This brought Rotundo in the driver's seat. He switched out to some submission moves like the armbar and a backbreaker but couldn't get Flair to submit. He whipped Flair into the turnbuckles and Flair flipped over them. Flair ran down the apron and climbed the turnbuckles, getting caught by Rotundo but he turned a body slam attempt into a small package for a two count!] [Flair started to take control here when both men got to their feet. He lit up Rotundo's chest with knife edge chops and brought him down with a snap mare and a kick to the back. Then he bounced off the ropes -- diving knee drop connects and Flair struts, releasing a 'Whooooo' that gets echoed by the crowd. Flair picks up Rotundo and drops him to the mat following a shinbreaker. Flair goes for the legs -- Figure 4 Leglock! Kevin Sullivan goes crazy outside the ring! Sullivan tries to reach in and pull Rotundo to the ropes. He tries everything to interfere from outside the ring but Rotundo is in such agony. Rotundo gives up! Rotundo gives up!] Winner: Ric Flair (Via Submission @ 6:40) Match Rating: B+ [A huge win for the NWA World Heavyweight Champion 'The Nature Boy' Ric Flair! He releases the hold and Mike Rotundo rolls out of the ring only to be berated by his tag team partner Kevin Sullivan! The crowd cheers Flair, though, as he is handed his NWA World Heavyweight title belt and he raises it up to more cheers from the crowd. Flair gives a strut inside the ring and releases a 'Whoooooo' to an echo and more cheers from this American Bank Center crowd. What a way to finish the NWA Power Hour! Wait a second...The cheers turn to boos as two men enter the ring behind Flair.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/garyhart.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/terryfunk2.jpg [Gary Hart hits Flair with a low blow, sending the NWA World Heavyweight Champion down to his knees. Terry Funk stands over Flair for a moment and then puts the boots to him! Funk lifts Flair -- Texas Piledriver! Flair grabs his head and neck area in obvious pain as Funk moves to stand to his own feet. Gary Hart raises Terry Funk's arm in victory as they stand over the fallen body of Ric Flair. Funk looks down at the NWA World Heavyweight title and smiles, obviously thinking that the belt will be coming to the Double Cross Ranch very soon. The crowd boos. What a horrible way to end NWA Power Hour! We'll see you on Friday for NWA Worldwide and Saturday for World Championship Wrestling!] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The match itself is mostly a technical showcase with both teams showing they can take to the mat when it's necessary. At one point, Rick Steiner clears the ring with a couple of Steinerlines, getting the crowd definitely riled up. Rotundo and Sullivan nearly get a pinfall when Sullivan rolls Scott Steiner up in a small package but it's only a two count. In the end of the match, Sullivan is lifted on Scott Steiner's shoulders. Scott tags out to his brother Rick, who ascends the turnbuckles -- Steiner Bulldog! Rick makes the cover: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winners: The Steiners (Via Pinfall @ 7:49) Match Rating: C+ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/woman3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/doom1.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/doom2.jpg [As the bell sounds, the woman formerly known as Robin Green, now simply known as Woman brings out two large hulking masked men to the ring.

The Nature Boy begins the conversation by asking what's causing all this? Tonight right here in the Charles Koch Arena Ric Flair is going to be in action against 'Cowboy' Bob Orton. Orton, tonight, you're gonna have to walk that aisle and face the best wrestler in the world today, the World Champion. Whooooo.

This match is a hard hitting brawl for both teams. The Express make the mistake of trying to hit the heads of the Samoans and that doesn't really work out too well for the fan favorites. Both Bobby Eaton and Stan Lane take headbutts from Samu and Fatu. But it wasn't too far into the bout that the Midnight Express took control for good. Fatu was knocked off the apron and Bobby Eaton headed to the top turnbuckle, launched onto Samu by his partner Stan Lane in the Rocket Launcher! Eaton made the cover: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winners: Midnight Express (Via Pinfall @ 5:21) Match Rating: B- http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/greatmuta.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/sting4.jpg [We cut to a video of something that occured earlier tonight when the wrestlers were first arriving on the scene. As the view comes into focus, Sting and The Great Muta are exchanging punches out in the parking lot! Sting starts to get some control over Muta and whips him toward one of the cars. Muta winces in pain after hitting the backside of a vehicle. Sting comes over to continue the assault but instead he takes a mist spray to the eyes! Sting grabs at his eyes, blinded by Muta. Sting takes a kick to the head which sends him down to the concrete. Muta puts in a few stomps to the man called Sting before moving away from the scene.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/bambambigelow.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/SteveWilliams2.jpg [We head backstage once again here in the Charles Koch Arena to a locker room area. Inside this locker room, a large body is slammed up against a locker. That large body belongs to Bam Bam Bigelow! Another man comes into focus: Steve Williams! Dr. Death throws strong punches to the side of the head of The Beast From The East. Bigelow throws some punches back as the two continue to brawl. Some referees try to step in and break things up but they get shoved out of the way. Williams picks up Bigelow and body slams him onto the concrete floor! The crowd is in shock! Dr. Death beats his chest until Bigelow trips him. The two continue their fight on the ground as a security force comes in to break things up.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg Match #3 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/sidvicious3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/danspivey2.jpg w/ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/theadorerlong.jpg vs. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/ShaneDouglas3.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/johnnyace.jpg The Skyscrapers vs. Dynamic Dudes [The Dynamic Dudes came out to a mediocre applause at best from the fans in attendance here. They are not exactly crowd pleasers but the boos definitely came out for the team of Sid Vicious and Dan Spivey, The Skyscrapers. Vicious and Spivey were dominant against Johnny Ace and Shane Douglas. The Dudes barely got in any offense and when they tried, it was no-sold. Vicious catches Johnny Ace with a big boot and he goes rolling out of the ring and then the focus was on Shane Douglas. Theodore R. Long watched with pride at ringside as Dan Spivey enters the ring and sets up Douglas -- Spiked Power Bomb! The force of both Vicious and Spivey sends Douglas crashing down to the mat.

Instead, Hawk and Animal, along with Paul Ellering hit the ring and attack Sid Vicious and Dan Spivey! It is a vicious assault by The Road Warriors but The Skyscrapers fight back! The brawl spills slowly outside the ring with Animal choking Spivey on the guardrail! Hawk comes flying off the apron with a clothesline to Sid Vicious! Paul Ellering holds back Theodore R. Long from interfering in the battle. Referees and some wrestlers spill out of the locker room to break things up.

The music of Badstreet can only mean one thing. It means the arrival of the NWA World Tag Team Champions The Fabulous Freebirds! The Freebirds, Michael 'P.S.' Hayes and Jimmy 'Jam' Garvin, hit the ring, sliding up on the turnbuckles and raising their tag team title belts. The crowd boos The Freebirds but they don't seem to either notice or care. Hayes gets on the microphone and talks about the history of the Fabulous Freebirds. He mentions the Freebirds Rule, which talks about a trio of wrestlers holding titles and wrestling for each other. During almost all of their time together, The Freebirds have been a trio. Tonight they are getting back to that. Tonight they are having one of their own return to the fold. Tonight they welcome back...] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/terrygordy.jpg [Terry 'Bam Bam' Gordy! Gordy heads down to the ring and joins Hayes and Garvin inside the ring.

Luger throws in some forearm shots to the back before ramming JYD's head against the guardrail. Luger grabs his opponent at Fall Brawl and lifts him up on his shoulders -- Human Torture Rack! Luger racks JYD again and again. JYD cries out in pain but Luger holds on to the rack. Finally officials come down and break things up.

This wasn't even so much of a match as a show of the talent of Lex Luger. Luger body slams Knight to the mat and then flexes to boos from the crowd. Luger seems to smile at the boos. He picks up Knight and whips him to the ropes -- Powerslam! Luger gets up and motions for the Human Torture Rack! He picks Jason Knight up to his feet -- Human Torture Rack!

It was the music of a returning wrestler Barry Windham! Windham comes out from the back and high fives a few fans walking right down to the ring and stepping inside. He comes face to face with Luger for a moment. Then he steps back and is offered a microphone. He talks with Luger, telling him that he's going down the wrong path. He says that the two of them have been best friends for a very long time. He doesn't like the path that Luger is going down. Luger just stares at him and then pats the NWA United States Heavyweight title belt. Windham just nods to Luger and pats him on the back, exiting the ring. Luger leaves with a confused look on his face.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/terryfunk2.jpg [As the ring cleared, the crowd booed at the ring music that began to play. The #1 contender to the NWA World Heavyweight title: Terry Funk comes out from the back and heads to the ring. The man from the Double Cross Ranch has a microphone inside the ring and he talks about the yellow belly that is Ric Flair. He says that the banana-nosed Flair, if he has any guts, should come out to this ring and face him. It's just him inside this ring. There's no one else here, not even Gary Hart.

The Great Muta comes to the ring first and shows off some martial arts kicks alongside Gary Hart. Eddie Gilbert and Missy Hyatt come out next. As Gilbert is talking to Hyatt, Muta comes over and sprays mist into the face of Missy Hyatt! Hyatt screams and goes down off the apron to the floor, grabbing at her eyes. Gilbert sees it and goes right after Muta. The brawl is on between these two but Gilbert's anger blinds him and he walks right into a kick from The Great Muta. Muta takes control and heads to the top turnbuckles -- missle dropkick! Muta scores a two count. A sign is held up by a fan: 'we want a fireball!' Muta continues his control as Missy Hyatt is still trying to recover from the misting. Muta heads to the top turnbuckle and leaps off -- back elbow -- dodged! Gilbert dodged the back elbow and Muta hits the mat hard. Gilbert goes right after Muta with punches. He maintains control and then goes over to check on Missy Hyatt. He waves toward the back and Scott Steiner comes out, helping Missy toward the back. As he does that, we see a sign in the crowd: 'Hotstuff Tonight!' But Muta recovered and caught Gilbert with a kick to the back of the head. Muta climbs the turnbuckles -- Moonsault Press! Muta turns it into a pincover: 1 -- 2 -- 3!] Winner: The Great Muta (Via Pinfall @ 10:10) Match Rating: B http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/sting4.jpg [As Gary Hart enters the ring to celebrate The Great Muta's victory, some other music begins to play! The crowd gets pumped as the man called Sting comes running toward the ring. The Great Muta exits the ring and slips through the crowd but he left Gary Hart inside the ring! Sting grabs Hart and whips him into the turnbuckles -- Stinger Splash! Hart falls to the mat and rolls out of the ring before Sting can grab him for the Scorpion Deathlock. Sting releases a howl to the crowd and beats his chest as he stands tall all alone in the ring. He stares off in the direction that Muta escaped through.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg Match #6 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/ricflairc.jpg vs. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/boborton.jpg NWA World Heavyweight Title Match Ric Flair defends vs. 'Cowboy' Bob Orton [it's main event time and what a main event we have right here on World Championship Wrestling! It's a rare treat to see the NWA World Heavyweight title defended on this show but Ric Flair steps inside the ring to face off with 'Cowboy' Bob Orton. The two men meet in the center of the ring and it's technical wrestling to start things off in this match. The Cowboy proves early on that he deserves this shot by maintaining an early advantage, focusing on the arm of Flair. Hammerlocks and armbars are the name of the game early on by Orton. Flair manages to escape an armbar by getting to the ropes, forcing the referee to step in and break the hold. Orton continues his advantage over Flair following the break and scores a near fall after a back suplex. Orton picks up Flair and whips him into the turnbuckle. Flair hits hard and cries out, holding his back, dropping to his knees. He begs off Orton but Orton comes in and throws some punches in the corner. Flair manages to block one and turn the tide on Orton! Flair turns Orton in the corner and laces up his chest with knife edge chops that draw some 'Whoooooo's' from the crowd! Flair tugs Orton out of the corner and hooks him with a vertical suplex -- delayed suplex! The blood rushes to the head of the Cowboy as he is hung upside down before Flair connects with the suplex. Flair rolls over into a cover: 1 -- 2 -- Kickout!] [This superb match continues forward with the momentum shifting back and forth. Flair does his usual flip over the turnbuckles and runs along the apron to the top turnbuckle but he gets caught and body slammed by Orton. The crowd boos as Orton throws up the horns. Orton goes back to work on the arm of Flair and Flair nearly submits to an armbar. But somehow the Nature Boy manages to make it to the ropes. A major turning point in the match comes when the referee gets caught in a clothesline attempt by Flair that is ducked by Orton. The referee is clobbered and down on the mat. Orton catches Flair with a low blow and then goes over retrieving the rope with the large bell on it. He measures Flair with the bell -- and connects! The ringing sound echoes throughout the arena. Orton is limping slightly on one knee as Flair focused on the knee when he was in control. Orton slides over Flair and makes the cover as the referee comes to: 1 -- 2 -- Shoulder Up! The crowd jumps out of their seats as Flair got the shoulder up! Orton argues with the referee about the count, leaving him open to a clip of the knee by Flair! Flair shakes his arm, trying to get feeling back into it as he gets to his feet. He sees Orton down in the center of the ring and then struts, bouncing off the ropes -- kneedrop! Flair moves over to the legs of Orton -- Figure 4 Leglock! Flair locks in the Figure 4! Orton struggles in the hold, trying to turn it over. He tries to reach for the ropes. But eventually he has to submit!] Winner: Ric Flair (Via Submission @ 15:30; Ric Flair retains the NWA World Heavyweight title) Match Rating: A http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/terryfunk2.jpg [A sign in the audience is shown: 'WWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!' as Ric Flair releases the hold and rises to his feet. He raises his uninjured arm and then is handed the NWA World Heavyweight title belt. But suddenly he is not alone in the ring. Terry Funk has come sprinting down to the ring! Funk enters but Flair meets him with chops! Flair backs Funk into the corner and lights up his chest with those knife edge chops! Punches by Flair! Chop! Punch! Chop! Punch! Funk tries to cover up and then kicks Flair with a low blow kick. Flair's eyes go wide and he falls to his knees. That HAD to hurt! Funk smiles as he throws a punch to Flair right between the eyes, bringing Flair down to the mat. Funk stands over Flair, looking down at the NWA World Heavyweight title belt. We're out of time!

Scott Hall vs. Flyin' Brian Comment: Very tough one, because both guys can be useful in the future if you put them over right, but I think you may run with Brian here; he can make a better impact sooner than Hall. The Great Muta vs. Tommy Rich Comment: Seem to be quite a few squashes to this card.

Unregistered Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Nice, happy to see the shows starting to roll out. Sorry I missed a chance to get a better go last time out. NWA Power Hour Thursday Week 2 September 1989 Prediction Key: 'Cowboy' Bob Orton vs. Brad Armstrong Comment: Cowboy Bob seems an obvious winner. Armstrong's weren't known for their winning ways, until that guy on a bike showed up. Scott Hall vs. Flyin' Brian Comment: Ouch. Tough one. I'm going to go with who I think should win instead of the guy who might. Go Flyin' Brian! The Great Muta vs. Tommy Rich Comment: Tommy Rich? Ha! I laught at Tommy Rich! Now bring on Buzz Sawyer, that man is a legend! Also, Great Muta ruled. Dick Slater vs. Sting Comment: I'm going on the off chance that Slater gets a victory via shady stuff. This is the one match I see as being pretty hard to tell. Good luck Dick I suppose. Signs: MY CO-PILOT IS FLYIN' BRIAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The clips feature things like the reunion between Lex Luger and Barry Windham, the return of Terry 'Bam Bam' Gordy to the NWA, the face off between Terry Funk and Ole Anderson, Ric Flair's match with 'Cowboy' Bob Orton and the subsequent attack by Terry Funk and Sting coming out to confront The Great Muta, only to have Muta take off from the ring.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/dickslater.jpghttp://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/sting4.jpg [The announcers, Gordon Solie and James E. Cornette, welcome everyone to the NWA Power Hour. Tonight we have what will hopefully be a spectacular main event with the veteran 'Dirty' Dick Slater facing off with the hot wrestler in Sting! Cornette picks the former NWA Television Champion Sting to pull off the win, while Solie abstains from picking sides. The crowd cheers at James E. Cornette siding with Sting. No big surprise there. But we have plenty more matches in store for you right here on the NWA Power Hour and it's time to head to the ring for the opening contest.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg Match #1 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/boborton.jpg vs. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/BradArmstrong.jpg 'Cowboy' Bob Orton vs. Brad Armstrong [The opening match is purely a brawl between the two second generation wrestlers. The newcomer, Brad Armstrong, shows some considerable skill in this match, though the match is mostly dominated by The Cowboy. Orton catches Armstrong with several moves, like a full nelson, bear hug and body slam. Orton plays to the crowd for a few moments and then lifts Armstrong up on the top turnbuckle. Orton climbs upward -- Superplex! Orton flips over and makes the cover, hooking the leg: 1 -- 2 -- 3!

He also says that Luger can be trusted by the fans. Luger spends the interview in various poses in the background where Windham cannot see him. The crowd, in the background, definitely does not know how to take this interview and therefore there is a mixture of boos and cheers for these two wrestlers.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/MichaelHayes7.jpg [The leader of the Fabulous Freebirds and one half of the NWA World Tag Team Champions Michael 'P.S.'

Hayes says that the Freebirds never back down from a fight. And out from the crowd come Jimmy 'Jam' Garvin and Terry 'Bam Bam' Gordy! The two men enter the ring and the fight begins between the Freebirds and the Midnight Express! It doesn't take long before the numbers game gets to the Midnight Express. Stan Lane is taken down and thrown over the top rope to the floor. Eaton gets focused on and set up in the ring by Hayes and Garvin -- Spike Piledriver! Eaton is laid out in the center of the ring.

This is a definite battle between power versus speed. Some back and forth technical wrestling begins the rather short match. Pillman shows some of his flying skills with a cross body block on Hall. He gets a two count there. The fans are definitely behind Pillman with signs like: 'Fly, Brian!' and 'MY CO-PILOT IS FLYIN' BRIAN!' Pillman goes for a second cross body and Hall catches him in mid-air before throwing him over his head to the other side of the ring. Hall plays to the crowd but this gives Pillman an opportunity to catch his breath. He climbs to the top turnbuckle -- Missle Dropkick!

And they are going to prove that at Fall Brawl when they step in the ring with The Skyscrapers. Hawk says that the Road Warriors are going to knock the tartar off the teeth of The Skyscrapers.

Long and The Skyscrapers: Sid Vicious and Dan Spivey. Long questions how the Road Warriors can call themselves the strongest team in professional wrestling when The Skyscrapers are right here in the NWA. Long says that The Skyscrapers are hired hands. They work for him and that means that they are going to do exactly what he says. And when he tells them to kick the Road Warriors in the teeth that's exactly what they are going to do. At Fall Brawl, The Skyscrapers will prove that they are better than the Road Warriors and move on to bigger and better things, including the NWA World Tag Team titles.] http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/NWA.jpg Match #3 http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/greatmuta.jpg w/ http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/garyhart.jpg vs. http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a226/shawkes/NWA%20Goal/tommyrich.jpg The Great Muta vs. Tommy Rich [in our third match of the evening, the undefeated Great Muta takes on the former NWA World Heavyweight Champion Tommy 'Wildfire' Rich. Rich is definitely unable to keep up with the swift moves of The Great Muta throughout this just over five minute match. The Pearl Of The Orient shows off his martial arts skills early with several kick variations on Rich. He catches Rich with a double palm thrust and then sends him through the ropes outside the ring. Muta joins him outside and runs him right into the ring post before moving the action back inside the ring. Muta ignores the 'U.S.A' chants that move through the crowd. Outside the ring, Gary Hart tries to get the crowd to be quiet but this only infuriates the crowd more. Muta fires mist into the air and then heads to the top turnbuckle -- Moonsault Press!

As Sting makes hs entrance, he high fives a fan with a sign reading: 'Time to pay the Scorpion!' This match is definitely a candidate for match of the year thus far.

The veteran Slater chokes Sting on the bottom rope and then the second rope. Slater runs and bounces off the ropes leaping onto the back of Sting. Slater makes the cover: 1 -- 2 -- Shoulder Up!

Slater sends Sting to the ropes -- clothesline -- ducked! Sting comes back with a flying forearm that sends Slater down!] [slater rolls out of the ring and Sting comes over to the ropes -- springboard cross body outside the ring! The crowd stands on their feet, cheering on their favorite face painted wrestler! Sting throws Slater back in the ring and throws some punches. He picks Slater up, twirls around and brings Slater down in a big body slam! Sting plays to the crowd and releases his trademark howl, which they echo back. Sting pulls Slater up and sends him into the turnbuckle. Sting charges -- Stinger Splash in the corner! Slater falls over to the mat and Sting grabs the legs -- Scorpion Deathlock! Sting moves the hold to the center of the ring. Slater reaches for the ropes but they're too far. Slater gives up!

Beejus Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Dick Slater and Buzz Sawyer vs. Ric Flair and Sting Comment: There's no chance here. Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Ranger Ross Comment: See above. Wow. Steve Austin vs. Junkyard Dog Comment: As much as I saw the names here and almost thought this was a no-brainer, it IS a no-brainer, once you remember that this is 89 and not..... well, not any year after 89. Terry Gordy vs. Brad Armstrong Comment: Poor Brad. Michael 'P.S.' Hayes vs. Beautiful Bobby Eaton Comment: This is the one I don't know about. It pains me to go against Bobby, but I think the numbers will catch up to him here. Terry Funk vs. Ole Anderson Comment: Terry hasn't been about much, so he'll need to pick up a win to build him toward Flair better. Signs: PS is Pretty Stupid!

World Championship Wrestling Saturday Week 2 September 1989 Prediction Key: Dick Slater and Buzz Sawyer vs. Ric Flair and Sting Comment: Sorry, can't choose against Buzz. Even though this is obviously a dumb bet, I have to imagine the bad guys will win eventually right? Right? Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Ranger Ross Comment:Let's go Bam Bam! If for no other reason then I have no idea who Ranger Ross is. Steve Austin vs. Junkyard Dog Comment: Tough question. I imagine this one will go to Steve though. Terry Gordy vs. Brad Armstrong Comment: Lets go Bam Bam!... Wow, is that the second time I've said this? Michael 'P.S.' Hayes vs. Beautiful Bobby Eaton Comment: Bobby is pretty talented, Hayes is pretty lackluster. Terry Funk vs. Ole Anderson Comment: Terry Funk for champion of the universe! Signs: Tommy Rich fears Buzz Sawyer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
