From the desk of NWA President John Hawkes:

 

Were losing the ratings battle, though considering the WWF decided to run a show in the Mid-Atlantic region the night we ran ours, shows me their scared. I have news that Cablevision wants to talk to us. Especially after hearing us running Lords of the Ring at the end of the month. That could work in our favor though I am doubting it.

 

Gordon Solie and Arn Anderson signed exclusive contracts to us. I believe Gordon can be the voice of this company for years to come. Though there is a guy working in Mid-South I might bring in to work with him. Arn I believe with be asset to this company for a very long time. Ron Garvin is furious I remove the title off him and gave it to Rude. I see lot potential in Rick Rude and see big things for him in the future.

 

Franchise Players

 

1) Ric Flair- He is our number one Star. He is the National Wrestling Alliance World Champion and besides the guys in the WWF very few can compete with him.

 

2) Dusty Rhodes- Dusty is over and he is a Major Star for the company. The plan is to keep Flair and Rhodes apart for the moment. Though a future clash of the World title is definitely in the cards for these two.

 

3)Terry Funk- Terry will tell you going National is the only the way to compete. Luckily him and Dory are staying with us to help us compete against the monster that is the WWF.

 

4) Michael Hayes- Some may be shocked to see Hayes here, but I am not really. Hayes and Gordy has popped every territory they have been in since Mid-South.

 

5) Terry Gordy- Two -Thirds of the Freebirds are on the Franchise Player list. Because wherever they go they get over huge. Signing Michael and Terry to long-term deals I think would be ideal for the company.

6) Wahoo McDaniel- Wahoo might be on the decline, but that doesn't mean he is useless. His star power and presence can help make future stars for our company.

 

Next Big Things

 

1) Magnum TA- Magnum may very well be the future of this company and putting him in the ring with Tully Blanchard is only going to help.

 

2) Rick Rude- Rude can be a Major Star for our company if I can push him to the top. This company will be the better for it.

3) Tommy Rich- An man with the career that Tommy Rich has had he should already be one of our top stars. Though with the stuff that happened down in Georgia his star faded. For him to be on this list I think we can rekindle that fire.

The 83-89 era is one of my favorite times in wrestling. Look forward to this. Are you using a recent 85 mod as I haven’t seen it come out?

Thanks. I am using heavy modified 1985 version that I did myself. I combined Crockett, Florida, and Georgia together. WWF is at medium and literally is a monster. They have 3 TV shows right now, all on USA network. Plus a roster that is freaking amazing. Greg Valentine & Roddy Piper vs Junkyard Dog & Hulk Hogan ended in DQ. It got 100 match rating. I only got a 82 for my main event of Dory Funk Jr vs Ric Flair.
