I figured the Funk/Tornado match would probably score in the low to mid 90s, but I never would have guessed 98. It's kinda like the other match in this dynasty that scored a 98, Jake Roberts vs. Vader from Summerslam. I figured that match would hit the low 90s or so, and bam, 98. </p><p> </p><p> I'm happy the Funk/Tornado match won though. Sometimes it's just a bit too easy in TEW 2016 to score a 98, 99 or 100 match grade with any random combo of main eventers in a tag match. That's why I mostly shy away from setting up those types of matches, although it's still necessary sometimes for the sake of a storyline. But with Survivor Series coming up next, I'll probably just have to bite my tongue and take a few really high match grades from matches that probably don't deserve it.</p>

<p>Good show Ink!</p><p> </p><p>

A few quick thoughts:</p><p> </p><p>

- I'm also surprised the Michaels and Jannetty cage match didn't score higher.</p><p> </p><p>

- I guessed the Hogan tag match to be the highest grade just like everyone else(I think) but I probably would have guessed the Terry Funk match if I had to pick a backup.</p><p> </p><p>

- I liked the Madusa face turn, because it looks like your women's roster was stronger on the heel side going into the match. Unless I'm forgetting someone, I don't know who Madusa would have feuded with as a heel, unless you turned Bull Nakano face. But I don't think that works nearly as well.</p>

Good show Ink!

Thanks Element! You're right about my women's roster being a little light on faces, and unfortunately with only 47 active female wrestlers who can work in the U.S., and most of those having practically no popularity, it might be a while before that issue is remedied. I just hope I can do the women's division justice in the meantime.

This was a fantastic show and a superb read/write-up, bought back so many childhood memories I have of these legends. Keep it up :D

P.S my mother would love your avatar, she was a huge Jake Roberts mark.

 

Thanks Josh! I really appreciate the compliment! And it's funny you mentioned my avatar in relation to your mother. My mom passed away in 2018 and she always called me "Jake The Snake" as kind of an affectionate nickname. That's the main reason I chose that as my avatar! Well, that and the fact that I always liked Jake Roberts and it suits the dynasty I'm currently writing.

 

PS. My name isn't actually Jake, but Jason. But it was close enough for her considering how much I loved wrestling.

 

<hr>

On a dynasty note, work on November, Week 1 is well underway and it should be up soon!

Cracking SNME Ink. And I won the round. :)

 

Thanks, Nobby! And congratulations!

 

I have a feeling your diary is going to get a lot more interesting given the heightened awareness of drugs and some members of your roster.

 

No doubt, as November Week 2 will demonstrate when it's posted tomorrow or the next day.

Seems Jake really was one for the ladies! Sorry to hear about your loss, cool story nonetheless. I'm really enjoying your diary and look forward to more :D

Comments:

 

Looks like you missed picking a winner in this one. That is unless you were guessing a double DQ or something between the final 2 guys.

 

Thanks for predicting again, Jaysin!

Great Card.

 

 

Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Match

The Kingdom vs. "The Fab 4"

 

Randy Savage, Vader, Rick Rude & Larry Zbyszko vs. Ric Flair, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Bret Hart & Owen Hart

 

Comments: In 91 The Kingdom guys should in theory be at their peak whilst Bret and Owen are still on the upswing so I think it's a safer bet to go the Kigndom here with Savage being the sole survivor

 

The Dragon Slayer?

Hulk Hogan vs. The Dragon

 

Comments: My loathing for Hogan means I can only pick one way.

 

WWF Intercontinental Championship

Sgt. Slaughter © vs. Dmitri w/ Nikita Koloff

 

Comments: The set up says Slaughter vs Koloff is the long game here so I say Slaugher triumphs over Dmitiri but post match sets up Slaughter?Koloff as the next PPV match.

 

Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Match

The Army of Darkness vs. "The Ultimate Team"

The Undertaker, Kevin Sullivan, Hercules & Smash vs. The Ultimate Warrior, Crush, The British Bulldog & "The Secret Weapon"

 

Comments: When I see Warrior and the words secret Weapon I immediately think Sting and if that's the case then his team goes over. I say its Warrior & Sting surviving. I'm probably totally wrong but even if its not Sting Hercules and Smash are fodder and Sullivan can job safely and Taker is still young so the stinking faces get the win.

 

Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Match

"The Best Team Money Can Buy" vs. "Doom, Death & Perfection"

Money Inc., Sid & Paul Orndorff vs. The Legion of Doom, "Dr. Death" Steve Williams & Mr. Perfect

 

Comments: Orndorff, never got Orndorff. This should be a good match thanks to IRS & Perfect. Perfect with the win as Sole survivor

.

Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Match

"The Rowdy Bunch" vs. "The Heartbreakers"

 

"Rowdy" Roddy Piper, The Rock n Roll Express & Michael P.S. Hayes vs. "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, Brian Pillman, Rick Martel & Buddy Landel

 

Comments: Pillman & HBK are the long term options but in 91 Piper and R&R Express are better options booking wise. Piper sole survivor.

 

Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Match

"Slick's Clique" vs. "The F4s"

The Warlord, The Berzerker, Kato & Paul Roma w/ Slick vs. The Texas Tornado, Kevin Von Erich, Tito Santana & Koko B. Ware(replacing Chris Adams)

 

Comments: Ughhh … Poor Tito Santana surrounded by some very ordinary talents The Von Erich's are … well you never know with the Von Erichs but the potential is there. I say Tito and the Von Erichs survive.

 

Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Match

"The Friends" vs. The Family

Atsushi Onita, Jimmy Snuka, Haku & The Barbarian vs. The Mountie, Honky Tonk Man, & The Nasty Boys w/ Jimmy Hart

 

Comments: Man …. I love heels but other than the Mountie those heels are terrible. Lets say Onita is sole survivor in a match that is hopefully short.

 

Women's Tag Team Match

Madusa & Rockin' Robin vs. Bull Nakano & The Ripper w/ The Fabulous Moolah

**If Nakano and The Ripper win, Nakano gets a shot at Madusa's WWF Women's Championship**

 

Comments: The stip & w/ tells you everything you need to know. Nakano pins Rockin Robin after some Moolah interference

 

Bonus Questions

Match of the night?

Who is Ultimate Warrior's "Secret Weapon"?

 

Answer 1: Hogan vs Dragon the pop should get this over huge.

Answer 2: Sting - I always wondered what would have happened had the WWE opted for Sting instead of Warrior. Vince liked the big jacked guy but Sting was the better Blade Runner and he fits this era of the WWE.
