There was a large write-up and photos detailing a barbwire match between Terry and Dory Funk and The Public Enemy. http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/DZex4ZL6TtI/hqdefault.jpgVince looked down at the article and his face contorted like someone just farted. “I heard about this shit Shane. It’s garbage wrestling they do in Japan because they don’t have any other way to put asses in the seats.” “Dad, that’s not Japan. It’s in Philly. It’s in our backyard.” Vince looked down at the article again. “The Funks?” he said questioningly. “I’m surprised to see those guys doing that shit. But Eastern Championship Wrestling is low rent indy promotion. Nothing more. What’s giving you such a hard on about this?” “Well, it’s no secret our business is down. I’ve been thinking about this a lot. We can’t keep relying on Europe for business. We need to reinvent ourselves here, in the States.” http://www.nndb.com/people/682/000024610/vincemcmahon-sized.jpg “Goddamit Shane, we are reinventing ourselves! What do you think this whole “New Generation” concept is all about?” “Dad, would you rather watch Terry and Dory funk wrestling in barb wired--” I flipped the pages of the PWI. “or this?” I asked while pointing to a picture of Bastion Booger. http://www.millionaireplayboy.com/mpb/wp-content/gallery/wwe_90s/wwe_90s_09.jpg Vince immediately started chortling at the picture of Booger. “Are you kidding Shane? This guy is great!” He continued to chuckle at the photo. “Is it as great as our 2nd quarter?” That immediately brought Vince’s laughter to stop. “Damnit Shane, we’re not a rasslin’ company like Ted Turner’s running! We’re sport’s entertainment. We make characters and market the hell out of them. That’s how I built this company! I know what I’m doing!”“I know how the company works Dad. I’ve understood the business my whole life. It’s why I’m saying what I’m about to say...give me the book. I’m ready.”He eyed me straight faced, without saying anything for a moment. Then he exploded. "You hand me a dirtsheet with Terry Funk covered in blood and tell me you have a marketing strategy! In the same conversation, you tell me you know what's best for business! Damn it Shane, you know we can't put out a product like that!" “You're right Pops. We can't have barbed wired matches, but we can do a hell of a lot better than Bastion Booger!"Vince said nothing."I got some ideas Dad. Hear me out…” Vince leaned forward and the two of us rebooked the path to SummerSlam together. n> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RingRider Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 I'll be posting predictions soon for my first Raw, but I wanted to say a couple of quick things before I went off and running. First off, I wanted make a couple of shout outs: First, I wanted to point out TheFinalCountdown and TheHive for having, what I feel, the best diaries going right now. They are both huge inspirations for what I'm trying to do. I also wanted to mention RKOwnage, who has a great diary from the same era (his 2004 diary is also really well done). I think we will move in different directions, but it's interesting to see what others are doing with same raw materials. Lastly, shout out to TheLloyd, who quickly messaged me the last time I attempted a diary (maybe you saw my attempt at Stone Cold Wrestling? Couldn't keep it going...found the shows very hard to write). TheLloyd gave me a lot of great tips and I'm attempting this diary with a lot of his advice in mind. (His diary is also worth checking out as well). I hope this diary gets some momentum. I have a few weeks written out and I think I have enough in mind to keep this going for some time. There seems to be a lot WCW games going right now, and I thought a historical WWF diary would stick out a bit (it seems TFC has kinda cornered the market here...). I appreciate any feedback anyone has. Message me anytime. Although I don't frequently comment, I'm all over these boards everyday. It's a great community and I hope this gets a few of you interested.

Also Ted DiBiase will make a major announcement concerning The Undertaker on the King's Court! Let's go to the ring! (78)http://oi45.tinypic.com/2hprcde.jpg123 Kid defeats Reno Riggins in a relatively short match designed to warm up the crowd and let Kid to shine. (54)http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/WLKYJY5HI4Q/hqdefault.jpgWhen we come back from a commercial break, Vince McMahon is in ring. He begins by announcing that in the wake of Jack Tunney's retirement, that the WWF executive board has named an “interim President,” and he's proud to present Gorilla Monsoon! Gorilla comes out to crowd's delight. Monsoon promises big match and and exciting time for “The New Generation.” Vince wants to know what plans are for the #1 Contendership. This question brings out Owen Hart accompanied by Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart. Owen gets right in Gorilla's face. http://s3.vidimg.popscreen.com/original/3/eDljamNtMTI=_o_the-rocket-owen-hart-vs-tony-roy-duke-droese-promo.jpg"I beat my brother Bret Hart at Wrestlemania. I won the King of the Ring last night! I should be the number one contender!"Gorilla replies "Owen, while your certainly a top contender,I don’t like your attitude very much. I'm not inclined to give you anything until you have a major attitude adjustment!" The Hartford Civic Center pops for Gorilla shutting down the whiny younger Hart brother.Owen and The Anvil sulk their way out of the ring. As he makes his way up the aisle, Owen is crying out in outrage! Gorilla should be fired! (64)The Smoking Gunns defeat the team of Adam Bomb and Kwang w/ Harvey Wippleman-- The match is pretty even most of the time. Eventually, the heels take control as Kwang and Adam Bomb continue making quick tags while double teaming Billy Gunn. Jim Ross and Randy Savage remark that maybe Harvey Wippleman has smoothed things over after the friction between the two following a disastrous King of the Ring qualifying match. It all changes when Wippleman accidentally clocks the big Adam Bomb. This infuriates the big man. He begins chasing his own manager on the outside while The Gunns hit the Sidewinder on Kwang for the win. It seems pretty clear to JR and "The Macho Man" that Adam Bomb has fired Harvey Wippleman. (58)Up next, Jerry Lawler is in the ring for another edition of The King’s Court. He reviews the controversy surrounding The Undertaker's disappearance since The Royal Rumble. He reminds everyone that Ted DiBiase has been claiming for the last few weeks that he, and he alone as the ability to bring The Deadman back to the WWF. Ted DiBiase joins Lawler and announces that HIS Undertaker will be in the ring on Raw, next week! http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NQP9bidvafY/UND1usp97ZI/AAAAAAAAFSM/zcZXsTwx2Hs/s1600/Picture+32.png "Nobody should forget King, I'm the one who brought The Undertaker into the World Wrestling Federation!

This allows the Big Man to take an early advantage and begin building heat as Shawn Michaels parades around the outside.http://whatistheexcel.com/wooobooru/_images/242c0c6c66f8acc4faf6c36a6199b1ad/1451%20-%20tatanka%20wwf.pngEventually, the Native American warrior begins to mount his comeback. Just as he hits a series of signature moves, Shawn Michaels jumps on the ring apron distracting the challenger. This provides Diesel the opening he needs to put Tatanka away with a Jackknife Powerbomb! (66--these two didn't seem to click)After the match, the two heels continue to pile on the vulnerable challenger. The Hartford crowd begins to rain "boos!" down on the heels.http://whatistheexcel.com/wooobooru/_images/b8cef30c054613316d20d556fb3d6c00/3891%20-%20razor_ramon%20scott_hall%20wwf.pngThe boos turn to cheers when Razor Ramon comes flying out from the back to save Tatanka!

Unfortunately, he didn't have enough to get the job down and Ted DiBiase's "Undertaker"easily squashes the Birdman in short one-sided match. (42)http://s1.dmcdn.net/Brnbg/x240-ZcT.jpgWhen we come back from a commercial break, Jeff Jarrett is in the ring. He grabs a microphone and introduces himself as the greatest country singer of all time! Just as he's conquered Nashville, he's going to the WWF! (63)http://www.wwe.com/f/styles/photo_large/public/photo/image/2012/05/0102RAW_03131995_0007.jpgHis spiel is interrupted by the arrival of his opponent, former WWF Champion, Bob Backlund. As Backlund makes his way down the aisle, Randy Savage remarks "You know something Jim Ross, I really hope that Bob Backlund teaches this guy a lesson, yeah. I have have been Nashville, and I'll tell you right now, yeah, that no one knows Jeff Jarrett. Let's hope the former champ puts him in his place." It becomes a classic battle of youth and energy versus wily experience. Every time it seems that things trend in favor of the elder statesman Backlund, the arrogant Double J pulls a cheap trick to gain the advantage and cocky Jarret struts across the ring. Eventually, the self-proclaimed "greatest country singer of all time" puts Backlund away following a Running DDT. (74)Up next, a video compilation from Raw and Superstars last week plays highlighting the recent history involving Razor Ramon, Shawn Michaels, Diesel, and Tatanka.

Tatanka was looking for revenge against the Heartbreak Kid following his involvement in his Intercontinental Title match last week, but it was not meant to be as the numbers game eventually cost Tatanka a match for the second time in as many weeks. Shawn Michaels defeated Tatanka following a distraction from Diesel. (67--another opponent that Tatanka had trouble clicking with...)http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/pictures/h/hbkdiesel/03.jpgFollowing the match, Shawn Michaels and Diesel grabbed a microphone and immediately began responding to Razor Ramon. The big Diesel remarked "Razor, you want to tell us that you're coming from us on Superstars last week? I think you need to hit the history books, chico. I beat you for the Intercontintal Championship. The fact is, you're not in our league!"

Quickly, Owen and Neidhart lay out both Luger and Bam Bam Bigelow causing the referee to throw the match out! (78)Bret Hart, having seen enough from the commentary table, jumps into the ring to chase off Owen and Neidhart.

He wants Owen Hart, and he wants Owen Hart now! Owen comes out with the Anvil and says that the only way he will get in the ring with Luger is if Luger puts his no. 1 contendership for next week on the line. Gorilla Monsoon comes out. He asks Luger what Luger wants to do. Lex says he will do it. Gorilla announces next week that Luger will meet Owen Hart for the no.1 contendership and will face either Bam Bam Bigelow or Bret Hart--depending on how tonight’s title match goes… (69)http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9dk45o0fc1qzx70zo1_1280.jpgRazor Ramon, the clear favorite and superstar defeats veteran jobber “Iron” Mike Sharpe in a short match, quality match designed for Razor to shine. (64)Vince McMahon is in the ring with Mr. Fuji and the giant,Yokozuna. Fuji begins to recap Yokozuna's list of impressive victories, including wins over The Undertaker, Bret Hart and Lex Luger. Fuji insists that it should be Yokozuna competing for the WWF Championship. Yokozuna can defeat anyone in the WWF. In response, the arena speakers begin playing the music of the ultimate underdog, the 123 Kid...(70)123 Kid immediately brings all of his energy and heart against the much bigger Yokozuna. After a series of quick punches and kicks, the big man is wheeling much to the surprise of commentators, Jim Ross and Randy Savage. The kid comes off the ropes with a high-cross body which seems will finally knock the big man down. Yokozuna counters by catching The Kid and putting him down with a giant slam! The Kid is obviously winded and hurting. He's clearly outmatched and undersized in comparison to the former WWF Champion. Eventually the Kid slides to the floor to try and get his breath. After a few moments of taunting in the ring, Yokozuna comes to floor and begins stalking the much smaller Kid. Yokozuna is clearly in no rush at all and slowly walks behind the scrappy underdog as the Kid crawls along the ground, ringside. Yokozuna finally picks the youngster up and reaches back for a giant overhead chop, but the ever quick 123 Kid ducks and darts behind the big man. Yokozuna spins his giant girth around to catch the The Kid but is too late as he's counted out! The 123 Kid shocks the world again by gaining a count-out victory of the mammoth Yokozuna!

In the video, Double J shows some of favorite concert venues in Nashville, TN where he claims he brought down the house as "the greatest country singer of all time!" Being the greatest wrestler in the WWF is only a natural career choice. After the video plays, we cut to the commentary table where The Macho Man can't help but comment on the video he just saw: "You know something Jim Ross, I'm not saying that this guy isn't a good wrestler...but his attitude really rubs me the wrong way. Yeah. I think someone needs to shut this guy up! Yeah."(73)The Main Event: Bret Hart vs. Bam Bam Bigelow (with Ted DiBiase in his corner) face off the WWF Championship. The match is pretty open, with neither man gaining a clear advantage in the early minutes.http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-o1Mch8tHN_k/TzfkKAyQqGI/AAAAAAAACSY/k1uFjYyKIoA/s320/WWE-WWF_King-of-the-Ring-1993_Bret-Hart_vs_Bam-Bam-Bigelow.jpgEventually, the bigger, more menacing challenger, Bigelow, begins overpowering the Hitman. He whips Hart from corner to corner punishing the back but can get nothing more than a 2 count on the fighting champion. After a fallaway slam and bit of taunting of the Richmond faithful, Bam Bam looks to drop one of his signature headbutts on the downed champion. But Hart must have been playing possum because he rolls out of the way and gets the opening he needs to take over the match. After a punishing bulldog, The Excellence of Execution begins targeting the lower back and legs of the large Bigelow, clearly setting up for the Sharpshooter.http://i46.tinypic.com/2drfnut.jpgIt's almost textbook from there. After 20 minutes of quality action, the Hitman gets Bam Bam Bigelow to submit in the Sharpshooter and Bret Hart retains the WWF Championship. (84)Raw goes off the air with Bret Hart celebrating his win in the ring and posing for the fans as Jim Ross and The Macho Man wonder if it will be Owen Hart or Lex Luger stepping up to challenge the Hitman next...

Beejus Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 The format seems to work for you, matches are short and to the point but that's kinda 1994 WWF for you. Your pictures are a nice touch, all these action shots and such. So as long as it's working for you to write it, it works for me to read it! The Powers of Pain vs. The Bushwackers Ted DiBiase's Undertaker vs. Typhoon 6 Man tag action: Razor Ramon, 123 Kid & Tatanka vs. Yokozuna, Shawn Michaels, Diesel It's like the affirmative action task force with a Native American, a midget, and a faux Cuban... only thing they're missing is Virgil. Owen Hart vs. Lex Luger (winner to be named no. 1 contender) Koko B. Ware vs. Kwang Tag Title Match: The Headshrinkers vs. Well Dunn Lex Luger vs. IRS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
