Comments: Great match. Not good enough to save the show but great match none the less.

Wow, an all mid-card show. Actually looks kinda fun in an odd sorta way.

Was the Big Cat Curtis Hughes?

Some embellishment on the reviews would be nice. A little info on Beast and Kalua would be nice (was Kahlua a chunky pacific islander dude? If so, he was in the AWA around 86). I mean, who were Magnum Force and did Ted Nugent just do the job to Luger?!

Some embellishment on the reviews would be nice.

I have no idea. He was chunky but I don't know who they are.


If so, he was in the AWA around 86).

I guess they were a jobber tag team. I never heard from them again.

No. It was some fat guy Paul E. found in a bar.

Big cat was Curtis Hughes.

Timmy has a good point... a lot of these no names are very much unknown.

Kalua and the Botswana Beast I've never seen before (both are big black guys). Starlbazer (not Blue Blazer) was just a masked Jobber, like Galaxian 1, 2, 6. And who's Ted Nugent?

As for Brad Armstrong... no Candyman reference? :D

BTW, your views on the show are pretty much the same as mine. Way too many jobber matches and sucky shit between hacks like Adam Bomb... I mean Nightstalker, MCMM, and the Tag Match for the Tournament at Starrcade.

I forgot to mention, Starblazer was Tim Horner under the mask.

Wha??! Weird. Horner isn't that bad of a wrestler, and the match was really sloppy.

I haven't seen this match (lately) but Horner was a fantastic worker. Still, seems like he was sent out for pretty much one reason, and that wasn't to have a good match.

Why throw him under a shitty mask, instead of say, a Joey Maggs or some other undercard loser? It's not like Horner had a reputation to protect. He was an on-again-off-again partner with Brad Armstrong to job in tag matches.

I guess he could do the job better than Maggs, etc. Not sure why they put the mask on him, but booker's seem to like to do that occasionally.

(shakes head in shame)

No wonder Ole Anderson was fired a week later. When you can't book an undercard right (Rotundo vs. Horner? I'm there!), how can you take him seriously when he does the Black Scorpion crap?

I'll post the match if you want to see it.

Which match? If you mean Rotundo/"Starblazer", I have this show. I can barely sit through half of it before I hit fast forward to see Flair/Reed, the only match worth the time of day, since it was part of a storyline between Doom/Horsemn.

Ya I meant that match. Nevermind then.

I kinda liked Pillman/Landell. Pillman was on fire during this time and Landell is just Landell.

Nah, put it up. I'm all for an obscure Tim Horner match.

It's up.

Ahh, it wasn't that bad. Just a basic jobber match, which is all it was ever intended to be. I was really digging Horner's gear there. he should have dressed like that all the time.
