Thanks Levinux! Koloff has always been one of my favorites. Growing up, WCW to me was all about:

 

Nikita Koloff

Sid

The Great Muta

Vader

Cactus Jack

Sting

 

and WWF was all about:

 

Jake Roberts

Mr. Perfect

Ultimate Warrior

Randy Savage

 

 

 

That's basically how I was gonna play it but without outright saying it. I was gonna make it obvious that Undertaker is a player in the World Title hunt, but without flat out guaranteeing a title shot, at least not at Wrestlemania anyway and maybe not right away. I was thinking of maybe doing something with the Royal Rumble winner and King of the Ring winner, like maybe they meet at the July PPV with the winner getting a title shot at Summer Slam. I don't know, like I said I'm still pondering on it. Thanks for the feedback!

 

Oh yeah, something with the Rumble winner and KOTR winner is fantastic. I can't wait to see what you do.

I have been meaning to post since the big show came out. Really enjoyed it! Was surprised my prediction were as spot on as they were.However the way you brought it to life was great. Really reminded me when I was a kid and started watching with my dad. I was a young pup back then I don’t remember much but I remember wrestling on tv with my dad.

I'm super disappointed Hacksaw was Warrior's partner. Hacksaw sucks.

 

As someone who's always been indifferent to Duggan, it's odd to see you say that. Not because it's not a justified opinion, since I know Jim Duggan wasn't great in the ring. He wasn't exactly the model employee outside the ring either, what with his exposing of the business when he was arrested for DUI with Iron Sheik. I also know a lot of people didn't like that he squashed Steve Austin for the U.S. title in WCW that one time, winning in 30 or 40 seconds. I get all that. What's weird is you're the second person I've seen online, in just the last three or four days, that really seems to specifically hate him and that's just an opinion I'd never really seen before. I'd just always thought that everyone else was as indifferent to him as I was. The more you know!

 

Don't worry too much about it though, because I have no plans to really feature him in this diary. My plan is simply to use him to get others over and build their pop. For example, and "spoiler alert", The Undertaker.

I’ve always disliked Duggan. I was expecting a new debut for Warrior’s partner and got it in my head Sting was showing up. My own fault for fantasy booking someone else’s fantasy booking.

 

Really enjoying this though. Gotta keep Warrior strong though!

<p>Can I just take a moment to come out of the shadows and say that this has been truly exceptional work to date? Seriously, huge kudos for what you’ve done thus far! Lots of logic and some neat twists on what we’re used to with diaries from this period (I’ve NEVER seen anyone turn Dino Bravo before! And to use it as the catalyst for forming the Natural Disasters? Good stuff)</p><p> </p><p>

Anyway, predictions:</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

"Macho King" Randy Savage w/ "Senasational" Queen Sherri</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: I think the Warrior would be better suited to his crusade against the jobbers on the card by working the undercard a little... Savage is more reliable and stable. It won’t be clean but Savage FTW.</p><p> </p><p>

Hulk Hogan</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: I can’t see Hogan and Warrior losing on the same card, Sarge has a role to play but I see him as someone to elevate others </p><p> </p><p>

The Big Boss Man</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: With those stips, it’s hard to portray Boss Man as anything other than a loser if he doesn’t take the W here.</p><p> </p><p>

The Hart Foundation ©</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: I’m predicting two other title changes so taking the Foundation to retain and send LOD over the edge into full blown heels. Post match destruction to keep the feud going.</p><p> </p><p>

Virgil </p><p> </p><p>

Comments: I’m going storyline here rather than ability</p><p> </p><p>

Terry Funk</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: Von Erich is too much of a risk to be pushing - Funkster has a myriad of feud options coming out of this.</p><p> </p><p>

The Undertaker w/ Paul Bearer</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: Glorified squash as Taker continues his rise up the card.</p><p> </p><p>

"Rowdy" Roddy Piper</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: potentially a DQ to keep Sid strong but I can’t see Piper going down here.</p><p> </p><p>

Jake "The Snake" Roberts & Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: This is screaming out as a potential shock turn for Jake and kickstarting what would be an epic feud... but I’m calling a clean win for the pair here and a slow burn as both look to challenge the new WWF Champion...</p><p> </p><p>

The Natural Disasters, Kamala, Haku & The Barbarian</p><p> </p><p>

Comments: more upside for the heels.</p>
