Re: June week 2, 1983 - Sunday

So, WreSpi 2 eh?

Gee, how can you tell? ha,ha

It was either that or WreSpi 1. I think that the wrestlers improve much too quickly though in WreSpi 1. That's why I decided on the "deuce".


I'm going to try to follow his path but the DOTT database starts a year early. Hopefully I can get Mark built up enough to be hired by the company that launched his career (WCCW).


How is this?

Thanks for climbing aboard.

There is a patch that will allow you to get a copy of the "blow-by-blow" but it doesn't work for some reason with me. So the answer is yes, as I go through each match I post the play-by-play. It really doesn't take that long for me (cut/paste is a beautiful thing).

How does this look?

Mark Calaway, for 1 year, was in WCW as "Mean Mark Callous", a member of the tag team "The Skyscrapers" with "Dangerous" Danny Spivey. He joined the tag team after the injury to Sid Vicious, AKA "Psycho" Sid in WWF/E. He was released by WCW after they told him that he wouldn't amount to anything in professional wrestling. Shortly there after, he had a phone conversation with Vincent K. McMahon and the rest, as they say, is history.
