Booker T and Stevie Ray, fresh off the heels of their debut victory in WWF, proclaims that they only have eyes on one single thing: the gold... or, rather, two things - the other being their lovely manager, Sunny.

Jerry Lawler defeated Doink The Clown (Rating: C-)

Jake Roberts Is Interviewed By Vince McMahon (Rating: B-)

Vince McMahon is pleased to present a re-debut in the WWF: Jake "The Snake" Roberts! Exciting! Roberts talks about being pleased to be back. He says that he knows many of the fans probably doesn't like him because of the choices he has made with his career in the past, the actions he has taken. But he's determined to seek redemption, to prove himself...

I.R.S. Attack On Roberts (Rating: B+)

Before Roberts is able to finish his interview, he is attacked and beaten down from behind by IRS. Apparantly, IRS feels that Roberts has some unpaid taxes from the last time he was around. And the taxman is here to collect...

Diesel defeated Tatanka to retain the WWF Intercontinental Championship title (Rating: B-)

Shawn Michaels did much to interfer against Tatanka when the ref wasn't looking, so Luger came out to even the odds and took out Michaels. Tatanka however, mistrusting Luger, demanded that he left ringside. While the two were arguing, Diesel exploited the situation and hit Tatanka while distracted, finishing him off with a Jackknife Powerbomb.

Bret Hart Rants About Owen Hart (Rating: B)

Randy Savage defeated Yokozuna (Rating: B-)

At one point in the match, the lights flickered for a moment and a "dong" was heard. Yokozuna looked confused and distracted, obviously expecting an outside attack. He should rather have focused on Savage though, who used the opportunity to take down Yokozuna and place him for a Divind Elbow Drop.

Savage And Diesel Argue (Rating: A)

After the match, Diesel slowly walked down to the ring. Savage and him got in each other's faces, clearly not liking each other, and after a back-and-forth exchange, the two of them agree to a Intercontinental Championship match at SummerSlam!

Hive · September 21, 2016

- This week saw the first episode of RAW with the new 2 hour format. A fairly good showing, fans across all continents will be pleased to be getting twice the amount of action from the #1 most popular wrestling show in the world.

- Vince McMahon has apparantly been using his time off TV working out, as his return to TV saw him sporting a more toned physique. Let's hope he'll be able to keep the likes of Sunny and Alundra Blayze at bay.

- We have managed to aquire pictures of both the new WWF Global Cruiserweight Cup trophy as well as the WWF Cruiserweight Championship belt. See the magnificent photos below:

Aren't those some sleek designs? It's hard to imagine anyone *not* wanting to win these accolades.

- Speaking of the WWF Global Cruiserweight Cup, we have through our contacts at the Titans Towers managed to get our hands on quite a scoop, the official list of participants in the tournament:

1-2-3 Kid

Chris Benoit

Christopher Daniels

Dean Malenko

Doug Williams

Eddie Guerrero

Hayabusa

Koji Kanemoto

Marcus Bagwell

Mil Mascaras

Psicosis

Rey Mysterio

Robbie Brookside

Sabu

The Great Sasuke

The Saint

It's pretty safe to say that this is the current cream of the crop in terms of technical, fast-paced high flying wrestlers throughout the world. With a line-up like this, the tournament could quite possibly be even more exciting than the Super J Cup held earlier this year. Chris Benoit, who's also participating in this tournament, won that event as the masked Wild Pegasus. A total of 5 participants from the Super J Cup will be entering this tournament.

Week 2, August 1994

News and Tidbits from WCW

-From overseas we get word that the Euro Cup tournament is entering it's final stages. The surprise entrant Dynamite Kid has reached the semi-finals along with Lord Steven Regal, Davey Boy Smith and Tony St. Clair. The semi-finals will occur in Germany later this week and then the finals will air at WCW's Battlestars event on Friday.

-A couple of missteps from WCW's production team; the WCW Battlestars event will take place in England but will not air anywhere in the UK due to a broadcasting dispute with TNT-UK.

-The Battlestars event will air via tape delay everywhere outside of Europe on Sunday, Week 3 of August.

-Rikki Nelson was backstage at the latest WCW Saturday Night tapings but was not used at the event.

Rumor Mill

-There is a lot of excitement in WCW about the World in Japan event, but final contracts have not been signed. There is talk about bring in names such as Stan Hansen, The Great Muta and even Antonio Inoki as potential opponents for Hulk Hogan. Until the dotted line is signed, nothing is official however.

-WCW is eyeing some talent in the WWF that are looking for a fresh start in the better promotion.

-Expect to see a new tagline debut with WCW soon: "Where the big boys play"

-Dusty Rhodes is returning to the ring, but that's apparently not what has him happy as a pig at a trough these days. Still trying to find out what's going on there.

-Word is that Arn Anderson is nearly recovered from the assault he took at the hands of the Stud Stable a few weeks ago. Will be interesting to see what he does when he gets back!

-There is no truth to the rumor that WCW contacted Bret Hart about jumping ship with the WWF title. WCW management isn't very high on the Hitman.

Around the World

-Have to admit that the new WWF tournament cup and title belt look very nice. They must have hired a great designer for those.

The legendary Dynamite Kid has appeared only sporadically to American audiences over the last several years but has been competing regularly in England, winning countless titles along the way. Additionally, while he will not compete in the Cup tournament, British wrestling legend Giant Haystacks WILL appear at the Battlestars event in a match against none other than the WCW World Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan! The contest will mark the first time the two men have met in the ring and will be a historic match up. The massive Haystacks will present a challenge unlike any that The Hulkster has faced before. As always, we will strive to bring out fans the most entertaining match ups of consequence no matter where they take us on the map.

Forever in Big Daddys shadow but I think would have been a big star had he not passed before he got his opportunity in WCW, hope he breaks the Hulksters ribs on way to the standard defeat and bodyslam ending.

I hold events that run only 1 hour in Europe and UK and only show them on tv on the UK/European networks. Then I do a big show, such as Battlestars and show it on every network and book that one much stronger than the others. This is how I simulate international tour dates. It's inelegant, but it works. To keep with realism, I generally book guys in UK/Europe as being "on tour" so they don't appear at my American tv tapings in the same week. So like Hogan touring Germany means he won't be on Saturday Night unless I do a Saturday Night taping as part of the tour.

Poor state of affairs all round really. A far better worker than Shirley, but then even I was a better worker than Shirley and I've only had 6 months training and one "Rumble" appearance. Back to the diary though... You can't possibly be contemplating Dynamite vs Davey. There just aren't enough local jobbers to work as security guards! Heck, you might even need to have one semi-final in Munich and the other in Leipzig...Austria even. Interesting choice on St Clair too, another that doesn't look out of place in the diary.

World Championship Wrestling presents http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b352/justtxyank/Diary/WCWBattlestars%2094.jpg Friday, Week 2, August 1994 WCW Battlestars 1994 Region: Southern England Venue: Alexandra Palace (Attendance: 3,100 Sell Out) Rating: 2.78 (1,809,140 viewers) Card Rating: B+ This event marks the conclusion of WCW's European Cup tournament and features the finals of the tournament featuring a first ever matchup between former tag team partners Dynamite Kid and Davey Boy Smith! Dynamite's underdog run to the finals included a victory over Lord Steven Regal in the semi-finals of the tournament to setup this once in a lifetime match. Additionally, fans are treated to a historic matchup between the larger than life Giant Haystacks and the WCW World Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan! The event is aired on tape delay on TBS for our American audience and on delay in Japan via J Sports and Europe via DSF. Sit back and enjoy the show! Match #1: WCW World Television Championship Lord Steven Regal defeated Johnny B. Badd to retain the WCW World Television Championship Match Grade: B Notes: In a rematch from their Bash at the Beach encounter, the two put on a competitive and well scripted match that got the fans in England engaged right from the start. Lord Steven Regal was a heavy favorite for the audience and secured the victory cleanly with a Regal Stretch submission. Regal is none too pleased when the match ends and Schiavone points out that it is likely because he fell in the semi-finals of Euro Cup tournament to The Dynamite Kid. Match #2 Brian Pillman defeated Fit Finlay Match Grade: C+ Notes: In an exciting clash of styles, Brian Pillman prevailed over the Fighting Irishman Fit Finlay with a flying crossbody. In an oddity, the local ring announcer present Finlay as "Dave Finlay" to the audience while the announcers and match graphics listed him as "Fit Finlay." Finlay worked heel throughout the match, but despite that the crowd never really solidified behind Pillman. Tony Schiavone makes a point to let the audience know that Fit Finlay made it to the semi-finals of our European Cup tournament, losing to Davey Boy Smith! Match #3 Sid Vicious defeated Lee Bronson Match Grade: C Notes: This amounted to little more than a squash match, but Sid was surprisingly over with the British crowd. Pre-Taped Angle Vader and Jim Duggan are seen brawling backstage. Segment Grade: C+ Notes: It's not clear where this took place, but it definitely wasn't in England. No details were given as to what led to the fight, but Jesse Ventura can't wait to see Jim Duggan get that dopey grin slapped off of his face at Clash of the Champions! Match #4 Sting defeated Jean-Paul Levesque Match Grade: B- Notes: Sting was mega over with the crowd which made up for the fact that Jean-Paul seems to have no momentum. The well laid out match engaged the audience for more than 10 minutes before Sting got the submission win with The Scorpion. Following a commercial break... Ric Flair cuts a promo on Hulk Hogan Segment Grade: A Notes: Tony and Jesse eat up this promo as Flair vows to get his title back, swearing he will do whatever it takes to be the World Champion once more. Match #5 Ric Flair defeated Tony St. Clair Match Grade: B+ Notes: In a technical masterpiece, Ric Flair defeated the local legend Tony St. Clair via submission with the figure four. St. Clair worked the crowd well throughout the match but didn't have enough to get the victory. Flair seemed to respect his gifted opponent which surprised Tony. Post match... Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair have a face off Segment Grade: B Notes: The crowd goes nuts for the sudden appearance of Hulk Hogan! The two men jaw at each other for a few minutes with no physical contact before Flair slips to the back as we go to commercial. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b352/justtxyank/Diary/WCWEuro.jpg Match #6: WCW European Cup Finals Davey Boy Smith defeated The Dynamite Kid for the first European Cup championship Match Grade: B- Notes: The crowd was super-hot for this match that wasn't much in terms of workrate. Dynamite was giving nothing to Davey Boy, no-selling almost all of his offense and slapping and using frequent takedowns. Frequent jeering occurred from the audience. After about 5 minutes the two began to work a somewhat passable match. At the 8 minute mark, Davey Boy Smith caught crossbody from Dynamite and turned it into a powerslam. Referee Nick Patrick counted a lighting fast 3 as Dynamite rolled through the pin attempt. Tony: What just happened? Did he get the pinfall? Jesse: He did Schiavone! Davey Boy Smith is the first European Cup winner in WCW! Dynamite Kid goes insane and decks Nick Patrick while Davey Boy Smith slides to the outside. Nick Bockwinkel is standing at ringside along with, oddly, WCW backstage announcer Eric Bischoff. Bischoff whispers things to Bockwinkel who is shouting orders to WCW security chief Doug Dellinger. Security restrains Dynamite Kid as we go to commercial. Following the commercial break, Davey Boy Smith is presented the WCW European Cup trophy in the ring with a noticeably large security contingent at ringside. The audience is pretty jazzed at this point as no one can figure out what just happened. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b352/justtxyank/Diary/Hulk%20Hogan%207.jpghttp://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b352/justtxyank/Diary/wcwworld1.jpghttp://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b352/justtxyank/Diary/Giant%20Haystacks.jpg Match #7: WCW World Heavyweight Championship Hulk Hogan defeated Giant Haystacks to retain the WCW World Heavyweight Championship Match Grade: B Notes: Obviously not a work of art, this was none the less a pretty impressive performance for both men. Giant Haystacks was accompanied by Bobby Heenan for this contest. Haystacks got a ton of offense in on Hogan was a babyface in peril for the majority of the match. Haystacks dropped several massive elbows onto the ribcage of Hogan causing an injury that Hogan sold for the duration of the encounter. Hogan made a comeback attempt after several minutes that came to a screeching halt when a bodyslam attempt failed and the massive Haystacks crashed down on Hogan, reminiscent of his match with Andre the Giant! Tony Schiavone sells Hogan's imminent defeat with utter shock and Ventura says he'll need to see it to believe it. Hogan managed to kick out of the pinfall attempt and Heenan is going nuts at ringside, telling Haystacks to drop more elbows. Haystacks drops one and then struggles to get to his feet. He does and goes for another one but Hogan moves! Schiavone loses his mind as Hulk Hogan hulks up while Haystacks struggles to his feet. The two men meet and Hogan bodyslams the monster! Tony: I don't believe it! He slammed him! Hogan drops the leg for the 1..2...3 and is STILL the WCW World Heavyweight Champion! <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="42604" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Final Show Results Lord Steven Regal d.

Fallout from Battlestars <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="42604" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>World Championship Wrestling Official Statement For immediate release World Championship Wrestling is disappointed in actions taken by Tom Billington, known professionally as The Dynamite Kid. Mr. Billington acted in an incredibly unprofessional manner following the conclusion of his contest with Davey Boy Smith. Mr. Billington's unprofessional rose to the level of assault when he physically attacked referee Nick Patrick. No matter the circumstances that Mr. Billington may have believed were at work, his conduct was entirely unacceptable. Due his actions, World Championship Wrestling has severed all ties to both Mr. Billington and his home promotion of All-Star Wrestling. We would like to extend our thanks to the local security team that was in place for their swift handling of the incident and we apologize to our loyal fans, both in attendance and watching around the world, for being subjected to such unprofessional behavior and violence. </div></blockquote> ...from the Wrestling Observer <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="42604" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>What an astonishing turn of events. Was stunned to hear that WCW had even convinced Dynamite to appear at the same event with Davey Boy, let alone agree to work with him in the ring. Now we know why. According to well placed sources in both WCW and ASW, WCW management had worked out an agreement with Davey Boy Smith and Dynamite Kid that the finals match was supposed to end in a "double pin" that ASW promoters would say made Dynamite the winner and WCW would say made Davey Boy the winner. This compromise came together after Dynamite Kid refused to job to Davey Boy Smith, enraging WCW officials who thought they had that in agreement before they booked him in the tournament. Clearly that is not what happened. Why the change? Depends on who you believe. Dynamite and ASW claim the fix was in all along as apparently Mickey Jay was supposed to be the referee for the bout and was suddenly replaced with Nick Patrick at the last minute. Perhaps the more affable Mickey Jay wasn't willing to participate? WCW executives deny that there was any agreement in the first place, but added that if there WERE an agreement, Dynamite's "unprofessional" shooting on Davey Boy to open the match may have led to an audible. There's no doubt that Dynamite wasn't working a script in what was honestly a disappointing match work-rate wise. Dynamite landed several stiff shots and appeared to hurt Davey Boy before a wild punch from Davey Boy broke Dynamite's nose. It got back on track for a few minutes there before the sudden screwjob ending. We are hearing that All Star Wrestling is pursuing a breach of contract action with WCW and forbidding talent from working with the promotion going forward. How that will play out is anyone's guess though as WCW has the leverage of pressing charges against Dynamite Kid for legit punching Nick Patrick at the conclusion of the bout. In an odd bit of connected news, RWS made a public spectacle and declared war on WCW in the dirt sheets despite not being negatively impacted in anyway. No matter what, everyone lost at Battlestars and WCW will no doubt drop the tournament going forward. A sad day for everyone involved.</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="42604" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Dynamite Kid now hates Nick Patrick Dynamite Kid now hates Eric Bischoff Dan Spivey now hates Nick Patrick Dan Spivey now hates Eric Bischoff RWS declares war on WCW</div></blockquote>

Week 3, August 1994

WWF Monday Night Raw #76

Region: Tri State

Venue: NJ Boardwalk Hall (Attendance: 15,801)

Rating:2.81 (Viewers: 2,109,380)

Card Rating: B+

Alundra Blayze defeated Luna Vachon to retain the WWF Women's Championship title(Rating: D+)

Bret Hart, Keith Hart, Owen Hart Promo (Rating: B+)

Keith attempts to meddle between his brothers. His efforts must be deemed a failure, given how they ended with Owen hooked him when trying to get at Bret's throat. So sad, this feud between once so loving brothers...

1-2-3 Kid defeated Pain (Rating: D+)

Michaels And 1-2-3 Kid Argue (Rating: B)

Shawn Michaels appears backstage after the match, mocking Kid's abilities and efforts. Kid is deeply offended and challenges HBK to a match at SummerSlam! HBK laughingly accepts.

Backlund Is Interviewed By Lord Hayes (Rating: B)

Backlund talks about "the good old times" when wrestling was wrestling and nothing else. When men were men, women stayed in the kitchen and fags were something you smoked. An oddly heelish promo from a usually very kind and decent Backlund. He must have had a bad day...

The Rock 'n' Roll Express defeated The Heavenly Bodies (Rating: C+)

The Smoking Gunns Accept Sunny Challenge (Rating: C+)

Sunny, looking beautiful as ever, challenges The Gunns to a match at SummerSlam on behalf of her clients, Booker T and Stevie Ray. The Gunns accept!

Yokozuna defeated Adam Bomb (Rating: B-)

The Undertaker Destroys Yokozuna (Rating: A)

Right after the match, the lights flicker on and off for about 10 seconds - before going all black. When the light returns, Yokozuna is down and out and The Undertaker is leaning in over him, staring at him while being completely motionless. The lights go off again and when they return, The Undertaker is nowhere to be seen... spooky!

The Steiner Brothers defeated Well Dunn (Rating: B-)

Savage Rants About Diesel (Rating: A)

Owen Hart defeated Lex Luger by count out (Rating: B)

Ted DiBiase accompanied Luger for this match, though seemingly not with Luger's acceptance as he tried to get rid of him many times. Though without success. During the match, Tatanka came down to ringside. He was clearly disgusted by seeing DiBiase there. Luger tried to explain, but Tatanka got worked up and went to take out DiBiase. Luger got between them and tried to calm Tatanka down, only enraging him further before leaving. Of course, all this mess caused Luger to also be counted out...

Owen Hart And Bret Hart Argue (Rating: B+)

It finally happened: Owen challenged Bret for a WWF World Heavyweight Championship match at SummerSlam... and Bret accepted! But it won't just be *any* match... it will be a submission match!

WWF Superstars #418

Buddy Landel and Jeff Jarrett defeated PJ Walker and Scott Taylor (Rating: D+)

Tatanka defeated Bastion Booger (Rating: C+)

Sabu Is Interviewed By Lord Hayes (Rating: B-)

Sabu talks about his plans to win the Global Cruiserweight Cup and that anyone foolish enough to stand between him and that trophy will end up in a wheelchair. Yikes.

Pierre and Johnny Polo defeated Jacques Rougeau (Rating: C)

Jacques held his ground valiantly in this unfair handicap match where the 2-1 advantage eventually allowed Pierre to make the pin.

Roberts Rants About I.R.S. (Rating: B)

Roberts warns IRS that when you stick your hand into a den of snakes, you're guaranteed to be bit...

Bob Backlund defeated Kwang (Rating: C+)

- After weeks of neglecting the fact that they have female wrestlers on the roster, WWF put on a(nother) title match between current champion Blayze and Vachon at this week's RAW. Furthermore, they are reported to having sent out offers to several top American female performers within the last week. Perhaps we can expect to see them rebuild the division?

- We have a very special treat for you this week, as we celebrate the 1-year anniversary of one of the most special moments in professional wrestling this decade:

- Reports are suggesting that Greg Valentine is coming back to WWF. Though our sources at the Titan Towers refuse to comment on the rumors that this move is to placate Bret Hart, who has for a while now been upset with no longer being pushed as the company's figurehead.

- Raymond Rougeau was seen backstage at this week's RAW. He's not expected to sign with the promotion however, and was only there to catch up with old friends and colleagues.

- There was a radio interview with former WCW wrestler 2 Cold Scorpio a while back that was pretty interesting. Scorpio said that at this stage, Pez Whatley was a better wrestler than Ric Flair and that the older wrestlers in WCW were holding the younger wrestlers back, particularly when it comes to them doing hot moves that the older wrestlers can't do. He blamed the office for him not doing hot moves at house shows and praised Steve Austin's work, saying he was being used to carry Brian Pillman.

The Final Countdown · September 24, 2016

Why would Dan Spivey be mad about the screwjob? Does he have a friendship with Dynamite or something?

Also, surprised that Bret isn't the figurehead. The only other conceivable option would be Undertaker, so I'm guessing that's the way you went.

So he got unhappy about being a poor figurehead. Then he got unhappy about being removed as a poor figurehead. No win for me. Right now, I have no figurehead. Because none of my wrestlers are currently in a strong enough position to be one.

smartman · September 25, 2016

I'm guessing it is because Bret's charisma is too low? Along with probably a lower SQ than several of the people on your roster? Taker isn't as good an option as you'd think either based on the criteria of Figureheads in TEW.

Yeah, you don't have too many good options now that I think about it, short of turning HBK face and pushing him to the moon. Kind of accurate since Austin had to come in and save Vince's bacon, but I doubt that's going to happen in this anytime soon.

Hive · September 25, 2016

You're probably right about evil Justin keeping Austin around, sadly.

But oh well, I'll manage. I'll think of something.
