Tystates,

This looks like it is going to be a great PPV. I really like how you have your tournament set up. In December, I have a PPV caled Hardcore Holidays and at that time, thanks to your lineup, I am now thinking about having a tournament for my first Hardcore Championship at that time and I might use a format for my tournament similar to the format that you posted.

[tystates]

Hi Stephen. I like doing tournaments and have decided not to have a Hardcore title at this time. If I did this tourney would be to determine the first champion. I just picked four from ICW and four from the USWA. Some other guys would have been good for it but I have them booked in other matches on the card. Then I just decided what special matches to use and placed them in the bracket.

I just remembered, I was going to have a Spin the Wheel Make the Deal match on this show. I'll have to think about that and maybe make some little changes now.

Thanks for the comments.

Wembley Stadium was the site for a huge night of professional wrestling, holiday style! Halloween Havoc lived up to the hype.

On the USWA Glory preshow:

Interpromotional Challenge Match
Dallas Page vs. Rick Rude

It was an even start to the match before Page took the fight outside. Rude got back on top and ended the bout with the Rude Awakening, giving ICW the bragging rights.

Justin Credible vs. Chris Candido

Credible had the offense early but Candido came up with some close near falls. Both landed their finisher but it was That's Incredible that won the match and forced Candido out of the USWA.

Don Leo Jonathan vs. Ted DiBiase

It was all Million Dollar Man in this one. After taking over on the floor DiBiase won with a suplex.

It was a brawl from the start. Baker put Duggan down with the Heart Punch and battered Hacksaw's head to bring out the blood.

Snuka and Brody, former tag team partners, started off in the double-ring steel cage. The two went right at each other for the full five minutes. The bad guys won the coin toss for advantage and Mad Dog Vachon entered the cage.

They double teamed the Superfly before he was able to battle back just before Road Warrior Animal entered. The four paired off and it was back and forth again.

Next in for the Heenan Family was Harley Race. Brody and Race worked on Snuka while Mad Dog went at it with Animal.

Buddy Rogers evened the sides up but the Heenan Family members were still able to stay on top. Race fought Rogers, Brody and Snuka, Animal and Mad Dog.

Butcher Vachon was next and the I-C tag champs concentrated on Animal. Race kept the pressure on Rogers while Snuka and Brody continued to go toe to toe.

The Hawk stormed the ring to even the match again. He saved Animal and the LOD took it to the Vachons. Brody and Race were still putting a hurting on Snuka and Rogers.

Bobby Heenan was forced to enter the match next. He went to the side of Race and promptly hit Rogers with a foreign object. The Road Warriors were still cleaning house on the other side.

Paul Ellering hit the ring and the Match Beyond commenced. Submission or Surrender. Ellering squared off with Heenan and was able to put the Full Nelson on and force Heenan to submit while his teammates kept the others off of him.

I typed in results over a couple days so just bumping this back up for those who want to look.

I loved the war gamesmatch and brought back many memories from the 80's. I liked the card, but this is just me I don't like every match a gimmick match or even a tournament of gimmick matches. I loved the Bockwinkle Inoki match and Mascaras vs Destroyer match. The other matches were alright. Keep it up.
