-Pre-Show Dark Match

-Pre-Show Dark Match
Barry Orton defeats Al Perez in 4:57 by pinfall. (D). After the match, Harry Frehley interviewed Barry Orton about his victory. (E+)

-Buddy Landell came out to hype his upcoming match with Villano III. (C+)

-Villano III defeated Buddy Landell in 12:12 by pinfall. (B). After the match, Villano repeated his open match - if any man in WCCW can pin him or make him submit, he'll take his mask off. (C+)

-Kerry & Kevin cut a promo hyping their upcoming match with the Villanos, as well as their WCCW World Tag Team Championship Semi-Final match against Michael Hayes & Jimmy Garvin to take place at the TV taping tomorrow night. There still seems to be a moderate amount of tension between the two as their TV title tournament semi-final match looms as well. (B-)

-Kerry & Kevin Von Erich defeat Villanos IV and V in 7:07 when Kerry pinned Villano V. (C-) Kevin & Kerry looked good. Kerry dominated the action, seemingly refusing to tag his brother in at all during the match. After the match, Kevin and Kerry could be seen arguing in the ring. (C+)

-Buddy Jack Roberts hyped his upcoming match with David Von Erich. He claims he'll "soften" David up for his title match with fellow Freebird Michael Hayes at Christmas Star Wars. (B).

-David Von Erich defeats Buddy Roberts in 12:48 by pinfall in a non-title match. (B-) After the match, David again hyped his upcoming title match with Michael Hayes at December Star Wars. (B)

-Manny Fernandez came out for tonight's main event match, and hyped his victory The Great Kabuki at last night's TV taping. Manny stated that Frank Dusek, King Kong Bundy, and The Great Kabuki have all tried to cash in on Adias' bounty, and have all failed. Manny tells Adias to give it up and face him like a man. (B-)

-Bruiser Brody & Manny Fernandez drew with Terry Funk & The Great Kabuki in 21:49 by Double Disqualification after the referee lost control of the match. (B+). This was a preview of the King of the Texas Deatchmatch tournament, featuring all 4 of that tournament's participants. After the match, the 4 men continued to brawl all over the ringside area, using available weapons (ring staircase, chairs, etc.) (B+)

Overall Show Rating: B- (This show can be considered a success, it should have increased our popularity).

THOUGHTS;

-The fans taking to the main event was a good sign, since they'll see 3 matches featuring those guys at the Christmas Star Wars event.

-Buddy Roberts hasn't done much since he came out the loser in his feud with Kevin, but he gives a solid interview here, then has a good match with David. He's got an outside shot of being the world title picture if everything falls right - he's been solid for me since day 1.

-I haven't made a decision about what, if anything, the Kerry/Kevin tension will lead to, but Kerry's definitely been positioned as the potential bad guy.

-Villano III has yet another solid match - for Buddy Landell, it's his best match with WCCW.

NEWS

-The $6 increase in ticket prices was a little too much for this show, but still, we get only 3 people short of a sell-out. On the downside, there was actually a dirt sheet report about WCCW being "greedy".

-Villano III complains of exhaustion after the show. He's already wrestled 11 matches in December. He'll fall just short of his ridiculous 17-match October.

-Brian Adias arrived late to the last show. Since this isn't the first time, he's fined.
