Okay, maybe I've lost my mind.  I'm sure I can remember seeing the High Flyers
wrestle a few times in the late 70's or early 80's.  The problem is that I
can't remember ever watching anything but the NWA until the mid 80's.  I used
to watch Wrestling at the Chase (a St. Louis NWA promotion) from about '76 to
'78, and Georgia Championship Wrestling (what is now the WCW) from '78 to about
'83 or '84.  I was thinking I saw them on GCW, but maybe I'm mistaken.  Unless
someone can back me up on this, I'll chalk it up to a faulty memory.

Well I rented an old survivor searies (5).  and Lo and behold Jake gave

  I'm surprised Old Vince hasn't tried to copyright this speech.

I saw couple of interesting, but not earth shattering, factoids 
while paging through the local TV guide for this week. 

Among the wrestlers listed as appearing on this coming Saturday's
Superstars (10/10) were Lance Cassidy and Max Move.

Presumably, Lance Cassidy is the singing cowboy we've heard talk 
of. Any idea on who he's programmed with? Also, who is doing the 
Gene Autry impersonation? I've heard both Tracy Smothers and Steve 
Armstrong mentioned.

Also, Max Move sounds like the Comet Kid's new name. Of course, the
name could have been a typo, but it sounds like the Comet Kid gimmick
is history and Max Move (or Maximillion Moves) is "on his way to the
WWF." 

Like I said, nothing earth shattering, but I thought I'd pass
the TidBits along. *

  We cut right to the opening match, to see the Natural Disasters in a
squatch match.  They actually let the jobbers score some points.  What happened
has Earthquake does an airplane spin and drops the guy.  Quake, still dizzy, 
falls on the guy.  The jobber tags out and the other jobber comes off the top
rope with an axe handle that actually knocks Earthquake off his feet.  Quake
tags out and the Natural Disasters end up winning easily. Kind of nice to see
an added touch off almost realism (guys screwing up and paying for it, even 
in a jobber match).

  Update:  Macho Man & UW gift giving.

  Nailz kicked his opponent out of the ring a declared he wanted Bossman.
This continues until Mosoon announces Bossman is not in the building and
we will go to a break.

  Da Mountie wrestled.  Did a flying elbow and a dropkick, that's it.  Spent
more time singing after the match than actually wrestling.

  Debut of Comet Kid on Wrestling Challenge.  Streamers and flares.  I forgot
to mention but on SUperstars he also had a "jetpack"  It shot steam out like
Van Vader's mask (where can I buy one of those?).
  When the steam shot out, the Kid hopped up to make it appear that he was
being lifted, only it looked pretty bad.  Similar match as on Superstars.
Lots of armdrags and spin kicks.  Ended with a foreward fireman's carry slam.
Gorilla Monsoon said "That's a front......."  and stopped.  During the replay
he announced it was the Startrek splash.

  Summerslam now on videocassette.  We see the clip of Kamala splashing UT
and UT sitting up.  IMHO he sat up just a tad too fast, but it still looked
good.
  UT wrestled next.  Typical UT squash match.

  Interview in the locker room with Razor Ramon.

  Shawn Michaels wrestled.  Won with back suplex.

Next week: Razor Ramon, Bret Hart, Money Inc., and a special match:

PWI Weekly even has him listed in the match results: he pinned Mike

Yes indeed, I have seen this cheesy spectacle. Although I didn't notice
anyone who looked like Paul Roma, it looks like Cameo Kneuer (ex of WBF
BodyStars) has landed a job as a feisty female warrior. I forget her nom

This match is on the widely available Best of the WWF, volume 1 tape.
Cobra is George Takano and Black Tiger is Mark "Rollerball" Rocca.  It's

 No, not grappling your PC down for a three count.

 A while back someone asked the Net for a comprehensive list of wrestling
moves for a computer game he was going to write. What ever happened with
this? If the guy's still out there could he drop me some email as I'm
interested in doing something similar myself.

                                               Thanks!

Fujinami in 1991?  Was that an NWA recognized, but not WCW recognized?
Or was it just an "unofficial" title change?

Year...

As they were wrapping up, Jamison came out with a covered tray on
a cart. He lifted the lid and revealed a burned chicked, cooked down
to the size of a softball. He wanted to take off a leg to give it to
someone. Jamison wrapped his hand around the leg and started working
it back and forth, trying to pull it off. Bobby Heenan's back was to
the camera, but you could hear him say, (drumroll, please)

"You'll go blind doing that!"

Ta-da!!!

Of course, being the master of wit that he is, Vince replied, "Hey!"

They were inteviewed Sunday on the air holdong both belts. (World amd US)
Ausitn and Pilman came out and challenged them.  Dustin accepted.  Bil Watts
said you don't make the deccions around here, the championship officails do.
Barry siad you don't make the decisions around here, I'm the vetran.  I make
the decisons for now on.  Could be a brake up.  Maybe, maybe not.  But they
definately won't hold the straps for very long.  Look for the next contenders they fight to lose the belts to.  Probably Ausin/Pilman.  I see them getting a quick push.  I didn't know Pilman was a full-fledged heel yet.  He definately is
though.
