Subject: Whiff house matches--post SS
Date: 30 Aug 92 20:01:58 GMT
Organization: Penn State University



House matches for the WWF for Saturday, September 12 are as
follows:

Ric Flair         vs.       Randy Savage
for the WWF title in a steel cage


Bret Hart         vs.       Razor Ramon


Undertaker        vs.       Papa Shango


These matches will occur at the Richfield Coliseum near Cleveland, OH.


Now, these matches are not being advertised on the WWF TV network,
but, as I often do, I called the arena itself to see what the matches
are--I've found it to be much more accurate as the operator at the
arena reads off the printed card.
By the way, another match that night is:

High Energy   vs.   Horowitz/Skinner
WOW!!!

If you want to hear about these changes which will be sure to surprise
the crowd in attendance at the Coliseum, but not me, I have a toll free
'800' number which I could post if desired for the Coliseum.

What do you all make of this?

I think:

1. Razor Ramon will prove that he is a contender by pinning Hart or the
match will be indecisive so as to start a lengthy feud between these
two.

2. Undertaker will destroy Shango.

3. Flair vs. Savage -- who knows?  they didn't say who would be champ
at the Coliseum.


That is all.

Ahhh, the beauty of using the VCR to tape the shows, then replay them 
once they're over MINUS commercials...

This way, WCW Saturday Night is only a merciful 90+ minutes (well, 
lately it's only been 40+...) and the hour-longs are 40+.  Basically, I 
abhor every type of commercial they show during wrestling:  jeans, 
candy, soda, and *worst* of all, repetitive wrestling hype.

On another note, I think the idea of putting Sting and Roberts on top
at the PPV is a smart idea--even though it slightly downplays the
importance of the straps--because it gives the fans a "bonus" match
to get excited about besides title defenses.

I hope they have the lightheavy tourney during this show...

   My hope is that Armstrong doesn't show up.  Not because I don't think
that this match might be the best of the night (that IS a possibility),
but because I'd love to see a light heavyweight tournament.  Imagine: Liger
and maybe another Japanese light heavy, with Pillman and Zenk and Benoit
and maybe even the debut of Lightning Kid.  But I'm dreaming.
   And anyway, can't you just hear Watts telling Liger and Lightning Kid
right before their climactic final match: "And remember boys, whatever you
do, no high spots.  We don't wanna show up the Barbarian."

This remindes me of the dying days of Watts' UWF where a segment was showed
exalting the fact that Watts' son was going to Univ. Louisville to play
quarterback for Howard Schellenberger.  At the time I couldn't figure out
what this had to do with wrestling other that the kid was the head honcho's
son.

It figures now that he is out of college Eric will start wrestling along with
all of the other former great's sons (Whindam, Rhodes, Henning, Gagne, etc)

Most of these guys are successful since they get a push because of their
fathers.  Why should Eric Watts be any different?

I dont think this is/was really a reference to his interest in young MALES.
It's a reference to his getting arrested in florida for possession of 
(cocaine?).  He got caught because he was trying to sneak an underage GIRL
into a night club.  For one reason or another after this, he was searched, 
and found to be carrying.  

I dont think NAMBLA only promotes sex with young males, I think their group
is in favor of ALL young people, male AND female being able to legally 
choose when and who they have sex with.  But then, thats just what Ive 
gathered from what Ive read, I may be completely off base.  Regardless, 
Ive never heard any reference (other than a few jokes on here) about Marty
showing any interest in boys.

He's probably trying to get attendance up in house shows by stating that titles
do now always change hands on PPV's.  The tag team titles changed twice on
house shows, but we never seen them.  I wonder if they will show the match, or
just tell us this weekend that it happend.  It would be kind of early to say
that Flair won it after Summerslam.

Last I heard they were still separated. But I caught Randy on TNN's
Crook & Chase (disclaimer: no I don't watch it, I was channel grazing
and saw him) just before the WWF's last Nashville card. He was hitting
on Crook (the female half) pretty hard, even got her to sit on his
lap. I don't quite think that's the behavior of a married man, even if
he was in his wrestling persona mode.

I dont know about all organizations, but I remember watching a
