Kickin It Old School

[Holland227]

This is a new concept I have come up with. Not new to the game nor wrestling fans but new to the style of fed I have ran before and using a little mechanics of actually running a successful territorial business. I will not post rosters of permanemt wrestlers because lets face it, in the territory days it was per show. However you will see a few guys here more often than others. Should have first show up today.

Note: This will update as I finish up the matches and write the segments.

[Holland227]

Show #1- Norfolk Va.

Opening Segment: Interview w/ The World Champion Ric Flair
Ric Flair- Whhhooooooo! Norfolk Virginia. What's causing all this, eh? I'll tell ya. It's me, Ric Flair, the World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion. Call all your friends. Tell them Nature Boy is back in town baby. Ladies, I look good, smell good, I can dance all night long and Space Mountian is open for business you know what I mean. *Women in crowd says something* Little Lady if I wanted anything out of you I put you on my knee. Now Tony Schavoine, David Crockett, Do I look good or what? Custom Made from head to toe. This suit, 1400 dollars you know what I am saying, Shoes $800 dollars and why, because I am the World Champion, The Greatest Wrestler Alive Today.

Tony Schavoine- Now Nature Boy we got word that at Starrcade you will be defending your World Championship against your long time rival Dusty Rhodes, your thoughts?

Flair- Dirty Dusty Rhodes. You wanna take on the champ. Well Big Dust, Starrcade is about the world champion and you are looking at him. Me, Ric Flair, Custom Made from Head to Toe. To be the champ you gotta look the part you know what I am saying. You gotta drive the mercedes, the Cadallic, Wear the Rolex, Custom Suits, Live in the biggest house on the large side of town, be with the fancy woman, ride in the jets and limosuines. Rhodes, Whooo, you are just a plumbers son. No class. So Big Dust, at Starrcade I'm gonna show you why I am the Great Thing in Wrestling Today, the World Champion.. WHOOOOO!!

Segment #2: Lex Luger vs. Rick Rossie:
Lex Luger def. Rick Rossie via Torture Rack at 3:02

Tony Schavoine- Lex come on over. Impressive win for you here tonight

Lex- That's right Tony. That is why I am the total package. The right stuff. You know Tony, I am getting tired of the 4 Horsemen, mainly Tully Blanchard. He is a coward Tony. He hides behind the other Horsemen and is afraid to be a real man. And he has what I want.. The NWA Television Championship. At Starrcade I am gonna get that belt Tony.

*Out comes Tully, Arn and Ole*
Ole: Lex we are gonna give you a chance here tonight because we don't really want to hurt anyone. You can back out of your match at Starrcade with Tully Blanchard. No need for you to act noble about things because the truth is you can't beat the Horsemen. Not when there are 4 of us and 1 of you. So I am telling you Lex, talk to whoever you have to and get the match revoked. This is your only warning.

Lex: No Way. I am gonna...

*The 3 men attack Luger and drag him into the ring. They all take turns hammering away at the Total Package and out comes Ric Flair who joins in on the attack. They are working Luger over real good. Finally from the back comes Dusty Rhodes and The Road Warriors. They clear the ring of the Horsemen and send them scrambling back over to Tony Schavoine and David Crockett.

Arn: Hey Road Warriors. This is Horsemen business. You have no right to get in the way of our business. But I will tell you what Jack, if you want some of the Horsemen we will give it to you, but you have to put those NWA World Tag Titles on the linea nd you have to do it at Starrcade.

*The Road Warriors shout out that they agree as we head to commerical break*

Segment #3: Nikita Koloff def. Pez Wheatley via Russian Sickle @ 4:12

*Magnum TA Joins Schavione and David Crockett*

Magnum TA: Well, a very impressive win for Nikita there. I have to say that he is a tough individual but he is not a hero of the people as I am.

*Koloff comes over and shouts something in Russian and we are able to understand he wants the NWA United States Heavyweight Title*

Magnum TA: Woah pal. You want this, the NWA US title. Well I got news for you. You are not even an American. What makes you think you are even eligible to hold this title. I will not let any foreigner hold this belt as long as it is around my waist but I'll tell you want. I will give you a shot at Starrcade. See ya there.

Segment #4: The Road Warriors def. Joey Maggs and Ranger Rick via Doomsday Device at 2:11

Segment #5: The Fantastics def. The Masked Assassians @6:23 via Sunset Flip
*The Fantastics head over to the announce booth*

Fulton: We have come here to tell these fine ladies that the Fantastics are in town. We are in the hunt for the tag team gold but first off we have some old unfinished business with the Mid Night Express. We want to beat you guys to a pulp
*Out comes MX and Jim Cornette*

Cornette: Let me see if I get this right. You two idiots want to challenge the greatest tag team ever, the Midnight Express. Beautiful Bobby, Sweet Stan, these men are way too good for you Fulton and Rogers. You guys are new around these parts and you will need a few more wins under your belt to even consider taking on the Midnight Express. The Midnight Express have more worries with The Rock n Roll Express and those wanna be chumps
*Out comes the RNR Express*

Morton: Cornette, Shut it. You guys couldn't fight your way out of a wet paper bag. Now Fantastics, No disrespect to you guys, but leave these fights to the big boys.

Rogers: Will all due respect to the Rock N Roll Express, we can handle ourselves in any situation. And if anyone has a problem with that let them tell us to our face

*Out from the back comes the Freebirds*

Hayes: Fantastics.. Hmmph, you guys need to remember who you are. You are the rookies, the green guys around here. You guys need a lesson taught to you Badstreet Sytle

*Suddenly all 4 teams erupt into a wild brawl. They crash into the announce set and out comes security to pull these men off each other as Tony Schavoine and David Crockett head for the hills and we fade to black*

[Knapik]

how are you figuring attendance and expenses?

[Holland227]

I am slowly working out the kinks but there is a dice roll and percentage chart I am working on that picks up the attendance which produces ticket sales, how much concession is sold per audience, and merchandise. Wrestler get paid based on performance in matches, intensity of promo and other small factors that add up. The World Champ of course makes the most. Champions roll on a bonus chart where they get paid. Merchandise is paid out per wrestler that successfully rolls on a merchandise chart I am working on.

[Knapik]

Cool I'd be interested to see the chart when you've worked it all out!

[Holland227]

Will do. It has a few bugs in it like one roll gave Flair some equation and he would have made $5,793. I fixed that as A decimal was off a bit

Show #2 Greensboro NC

Opening Segment: We open the show with a clip of last week's brawl between the 4 tag teams. Then show what happened after the show went off the air showing a match signed for tonight, an 8 man tag between midnight Express & Freebirds vs. Rock N Roll Express & Fantastics

Segment #2: 8 man tag match

The Rock N Roll Express & Fantastics def. The Freebirds and Midnight Express via pinfall @12:21 when Robert Gibson pinned Jimmy Garvin after a RNR Express double dropkick. Solid showing from the four tag teams. Each team tried to get the advantage early. Back and forth paced match. Soon enough all hell erupted and all 8 men were brawling. Soon the RNR Express got Jimmy Garvin away from everyone else and scored the double dropkick and the victory

Segment #3: Interview with Dusty Rhodes, Road Warriors and Lex Luger

Dusty: Ric Flair. World Champion. Brother you are right. You are a custom made man and I am just the son of a plumber. A common man if you will. But you can bet your bottom dollar that Dusty Rhodes, The American Dream, will make it a reality at Starrcade when I take the title from you and give it back to the people

Luger: I couldn't have said it better Dusty. You see we have issues with you 4 Horsemen. Espically you Tully Blanchard. Last week you and the Horsemen cheap shotted me, The Total Package Lex Luger. This week I have backup. The American Dream, my Chicago Brothers The Road Warriors so try it now. Tully you got one coming

Animal: You see. Horsemen what we have here is a group far more superior to yours. And guess what... We ain't breaking down. We dont need to cheapshot, hit from behind and be sleazy about it. We are right here. Ole, Arn, if you are looking for a fight we have one right here, tell em Hawk!

Hawk: Well!!!!!! It seems to me that what we have here is a game of cat and mouse. Setting traps. Well we got the big cheese and soon those cats will come out. We go the gold, if you want it come get it. OHHH WHAT A RUSH!!!

Segment #4: Magnum TA def. Joey Maggs via Belly to Belly Suplex @ 4:39. TA put on a wrestling clinic over Joey Maggs using a variety of suplexes, dropkicks, and grapples. After the match Nikita Koloff hit the ring and blindsided the United States Champion knocking him out with a vicious Russian Sickle.

Segment #5: The Andersons def. Rick Rossie & Pex Wheatley @7:21 when Arn hit his Spinebuster on Rossie. The Andersons took out their frustrations with the Road Warriors out on Rossie and Pez. These two didn't stand a chance.

Segment #6: Ric Flair and Tully Blanchard def. Dusty Rhodes and Lex Luger via Pinfall after Tully Blanchard laid out Lex Luger with a roll of quarters punch. Each man tried to get a hold of their nemesis but didn't have a lot of luck. The end came when Flair was chased off by Dusty Rhodes and Luger had Blanchard on the mat. Out from the back came a police officer who handed Blanchard the roll of quarters and he laid out Luger and got the 3 count. The officer took off the hat and it was Baby Doll!!!!! From the back came Flair and he and Blanchard celebrate as Rhodes looked at his downed partner.
