CARD 29: LIVE T.A.G. TV Show Taping, Thursday December 13, 2007 @ the MEEHAN AUDITORIUM -- Providence RI MATCH 1: RON GARVIN VS BULLDOG BROWER Brower was disqualified when the ref caught him using a foreign object in a time of 3:47.
MATCH 2: PEDRO MORALES (with Bob Backlund) VS MIKE GEORGE Morales had two pin attempts on George, and almost made him submit to an Abdominal Stretch during the match. George went on to be counted-out to end the match. Mike George was counted-out in a time of 6:41.
MATCH 3: KARL GOTCH VS IRWIN R. SCHYSTER (with Ted DiBiase) Schyster started out trying to surprise Karl with his finisher, but Karl managed to escape defeat. Gotch then went for one of his favorite submission holds, and used it twice to secure a win. Karl Gotch wins with an Octopus Hold in a time of 8:11.
MATCH 4: LEIF CASSIDY & MARTY JANETTY VS MIKE & TED DIBIASE After an even match-up to start the match, Janetty tagged Cassidy while Ted tagged Mike DiBiase. Cassidy was able to get a pin attempt on Mike, but Mike came back with a couple of Flying Cross Bodypresses to gain the advantage. Once Janetty and Ted were tagged back into the ring, Ted DiBiase saw a loss coming and got himself disqualified to end the match. Cassidy & Janetty win when Ted DiBiase was disqualified against Janetty in a time of 15:52.
MATCH 5: BOB BACKLUND (with Pedro Morales) VS SGT SLAUGHTER (with Skandar Akbar) Slaughter was disqualified in a time of 3:04.
MATCH 6: MAGNUM T.A. VS NIKITA KOLOFF -- BEST OF 7 SERIES (Bout # 2) Nikita was determined to win, since he had lost the first match of the series at last Saturday's Showcase. Magnum, however, started with the first pin attempt of the match. Nikita remained focused and used his finisher a devastating three times on Magnum! To Koloff's dismay, Magnum recovered and kicked out of the pin attempts each time. Seeing Koloff get frustrated, it was time for Magnum to mount a fierce comeback. Magnum tried on three occasions to get the pin on the big Russian, only for Koloff to kick out each time also. Magnum's frustration got the best of him, and Magnum was DQed to give Koloff the second match of the series. Magnum T.A. was disqualified in a time of 9:15.
MATCH 7: T.A.G. TEAM CHAMPIONS FRANK GOTCH & BRUNO SAMMARTINO VS SANDMAN & PAPA SHANGO (with Skandar Akbar)-- NON-TITLE An easy match for the champions, as Frank Gotch dismantled Sandman completely. Frank Gotch & Sammartino win when Gotch uses a Rolling Kneebar on Sandman in a time of 1:06.
"Don't worry, Mountie. This will be an easy win for you," Ted Arcidi told the Mountie in the ring before the next bout. "I will see to it that Armstrong will lose, since I will be the special referee!" Mountie stated, "Thank you, Mr. Arcidi! I have no doubt you will not let me down. The Mountie always gets his man!"
MATCH 8: BRAD ARMSTRONG VS THE MOUNTIE -- SPECIAL REFEREE TED ARCIDI Brad started the match out pretty much like he started out their last match-up: He went for an early submission, and then hit his finisher twice! The Mountie was able to counter after Armstrong missed a deathjump. This was the turning point of the match, as the Mountie used both his finishers to secure his first victory in the federation. The Mountie wins with his finisher-SHOCK STICK in a time of 1:41.
MATCH 9: T.A.G. HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION MANNY FERNANDEZ (with Magnum T.A.) VS RICK RUDE (with Mike DiBiase)-- NON-TITLE The fans were expecting another five-star match like they had several weeks ago, but what they got instead was a quick double-DQ! Both Fernandez and Rude were disqualified in a time of 3:15.

Thanks for the predictions, Neily! Let's see how you did...CARD 30: LIVE T.A.G. TV Show Taping, Saturday, December 15, 2007 @ the AGGANIS ARENA -- Boston MA MATCH 1: BRAD ARMSTRONG VS TED ARCIDI Brad started out wanting to win quickly, getting two quick near-fall pin attempts, and hitting his finisher once. Ted shook these off and steamrolled onto victory. Arcidi wins with his finisher-BEARHUG in a time of 3:23.
MATCH 2: KARL GOTCH VS BULLDOG BROWER An easy victory for Brower as he mauled Karl Gotch in this match-up. Brower wins with his finisher-PILEDRIVER in a time of 3:41.
MATCH 3: MARTY JANETTY VS GINO HERNANDEZ Gino wasted no time hitting his finisher and then going for the kill. Hernandez pins Janetty after a Noggin Knocker in a time of 4:38.
MATCH 4: MANNY FERNANDEZ & RON GARVIN VS TED DIBIASE & RICK RUDE "Raging Bull" Fernandez had the first pin attempt of the match with a Belly-to-Back Suplex. Ted DiBiase countered with a Sleeperhold. Fernandez tagged to Ron Garvin, but Ted DiBiase took over and worked over Garvin until he got the victory. Ted DiBiase & Rude win when DiBiase pins Garvin with a Vertical Suplex in a time of 5:30.
MATCH 5: LEIF CASSIDY VS THE MOUNTIE Although the Mountie seemed to be in control of this match, he got himself DQed. The Mountie was disqualified in a time of 4:51.
MATCH 6: MAGNUM T.A. (with Manny Fernandez) VS NIKITA KOLOFF -- BOUT # 3 OF THEIR BEST OF 7 SERIES Once Nikita had his only pin attempt in the match, it was all Magnum, as Magnum went on to win the match to take a two-to-one lead in their Best of Seven series. Magnum wins with his finisher-BELLY-TO-BELLY SUPLEX in a time of 4:00.
MATCH 7: BOB BACKLUND (with Pedro Morales) VS SANDMAN Both wrestlers were disqualified in a time of 2:26.
MATCH 8: T.A.G. TEAM CHAMPIONS FRANK GOTCH & BRUNO SAMMARTINO VS "IRON" MIKE DIBIASE & IRWIN R. SCHYSTER -- NON-TITLE Sammartino wasted no time slapping on his finisher against Schyster. Schyster took over when Bruno missed a deathjump, then Schyster used his finisher against Bruno. Even though he had control of the match, it was obvious Schyster was afraid of submitting or being pinned by Sammartino. Schyster got himself DQed before that could happen. Frank Gotch & Bruno win when Schyster was disqualified against Bruno in a time of 2:09.
MATCH 9: PEDRO MORALES VS SERGEANT SLAUGHTER The only highlight in this match was when Morales missed a deathjump, and Slaughter slapped on his finisher right after that. Morales escaped and continued the match. This match ended in a double count-out in a time of 7:22.
MATCH 10: T.A.G. TELEVISION CHAMP RANDY SAVAGE VS PAPA SHANGO -- NON-TITLE Papa Shango wins when Savage was quickly counted-out in a time of 2:23, thus Shango receives a Title Bout on the next fight card!

It's all in the way the dice roll!
Crimson, Papa Shango went 4 - 0 in singles matches recently, defeating both Magnum T.A. and Bruno (and NOT by DQ or count-out either), so he EARNED the match against Savage. Gino Hernandez is also 4 - 0 recently, so I am sending him against the Heavyweight Champ on the next fight card, since he EARNED it too. Check out the preview...[glow=red,2,300]CARD 31 Preview[/glow] MATCH 1: BRAD ARMSTRONG VS BULLDOG BROWER MATCH 2: MIKE GEORGE VS THE MOUNTIE MATCH 3: FRANK GOTCH, PEDRO MORALES, & BRUNO SAMMARTINO VS IRWIN R.

VS NIKITA KOLOFF -- BOUT # 4 OF THEIR BEST OF 7 SERIES (Magnum leads the series 2-1) MATCH 6: RON GARVIN VS RICK RUDE MATCH 7: T.A.G.

CARD 31: LIVE T.A.G. TV Show Taping, Monday December 17, 2007 @ the MASSMUTUAL CENTER -- Springfield MA MATCH 1: BRAD ARMSTRONG VS BULLDOG BROWER In a match almost quicker than one can blink, Armstrong got the upset win with his finisher-RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP in a time of just 0:47.
MATCH 2: MIKE GEORGE VS THE MOUNTIE The Mountie was disqualified in a time of 1:14.
MATCH 3: FRANK GOTCH, PEDRO MORALES, & BRUNO SAMMARTINO VS IRWIN R. SCHYSTER, AND MIKE & TED DIBIASE Morales seemed to have total control of the match against Mike DiBiase, but when the action tumbled outside the ring, Morales' temper got the better of him and he was DQed. Schyster, Mike & Ted DiBiase win when Morales was disqualified against Mike DiBiase in a time of 3:36.
MATCH 4: KARL GOTCH VS SERGEANT SLAUGHTER It was fairly even most of the match. Karl Gotch managed to apply his finisher several minutes into the match-up. Nikita Koloff came down to ringside to support his teammate, Slaughter. In a surprise move, Gotch caught Slaughter off-guard with a Flying Cross Bodypress, and Koloff entered the ring. Gotch gave them a Noggin Knocker and went for the victory. Karl Gotch wins with a Noggin Knocker in a time of 17:06.
MATCH 5: MAGNUM T.A. VS NIKITA KOLOFF -- BOUT # 4 OF THEIR BEST OF 7 SERIES (Magnum leads the series 2-1) Nikita was disqualified in a time of 4:55, thus Magnum T.A. takes a three-to-one lead in the Best of Seven series!
MATCH 6: RON GARVIN VS RICK RUDE Immediately after using a Piledriver on Garvin, Rude went for the kill with his finisher. Seeing his teammate was about to be pinned, Magnum T.A. came down and got Garvin DQed. Garvin was disqualified when Magnum T.A. interfered in the match in a time of 1:11.
MATCH 7: T.A.G. HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP MANNY FERNANDEZ (with Ron Garvin) VS GINO HERNANDEZ -- NON-TITLE In a quick match, Fernandez was disqualified for inadvertently hitting the referee in a time of 1:36, thus Gino Hernandez receives a Title Bout on the next fight card!
MATCH 8: BOB BACKLUND VS SANDMAN -- STEEL CAGE Since these two went to a double-DQ last fight card, each demanded a rematch in a steel cage. Sandman started out with the advantage, getting the first pin attempt of the match. Backlund countered with three pin attempts of his own. Backlund wore out Sandman and then went for the victory following one of his finishers. Backlund escapes after using his finisher-ROLLING BACKBRIDGE in a time of 13:52.
MATCH 9: T.A.G. TELEVISION CHAMP RANDY SAVAGE VS PAPA SHANGO -- TITLE BOUT Savage was in total control this match. Tossing Shango out of the ring several times weakened Shango, and Savage knew it was time to go for the win. Nailing his finisher, Savage went for the three-count, only to have Sandman interfere in the match and have Papa Shango DQed. Shango was disqualified when Sandman came down to ringside and interfered in a time of 7:20.
Note: SIX disqualifications this card! Wow!

Maybe you should use the house rule of rolling twice before using the DQ result. You do lead the LWA in disqualifications!

Um, thanks for the suggestion, but I play by the OFFICIAL rules!
Actually, at least I hold the record for SOMETHING in LWA huh? ;D

In that case, quit throwing guys out of the ring or leaving on their own so much

CARD 32: House Show on Tuesday, December 18, 2007 @ the ALUMI HALL -- Providence RI MATCH 1: BRAD ARMSTRONG VS IRWIN R. SCHYSTER Armstrong struck first in the match, hitting his finisher but failing to get the pinfall. I.R.S. came right back, however, and did not fail when he used his own finisher. Schyster wins with his finisher-THE WRITE-OFF in a time of 1:37.
MATCH 2: MAGNUM T.A. & RON GARVIN VS NIKITA KOLOFF & SGT SLAUGHTER Garvin nailed Koloff early with his finisher. Magnum came in and dished out some punishment on Koloff until the big Russian had enough and got himself DQed. Magnum & Garvin win when Koloff was disqualified against Magnum in a time of 7:20.
MATCH 3: NUMBER ONE CONTENDERS MATCH FOR THE T.A.G. TEAM BELTS -- MARTY JANETTY & LEIF CASSIDY VS MIKE DIBIASE & RICK RUDE The New Rockers were determined to win this match, and it showed from the opening bell. Janetty used his tag finisher on Mike DiBiase almost immediately, then Cassidy dominated on offense. Cassidy used his finisher, then a Spinebuster, then a Sleeper, and finally, got the pin on his next pin attempt to earn the New Rockers a shot at the T.A.G. Champions! Cassidy & Janetty win when Cassidy pins Mike DiBiase with a Cross Body Block in a time of 3:50, thus Cassidy & Janetty get a Title Shot at T.A.G. Team Champions Frank Gotch / Sammartino at the Pay-Per-View!
MATCH 4: MIKE GEORGE VS BULLDOG BROWER In a battle of the Piledrivers, George struck first, nailing Brower with his finisher, but Brower kicked out of the pin attempt. Next, Brower's turn. George seemed to be affected by the move more than when Brower received it. Brower took full control of the match, however, when George crashed head-first into the buckle. Brower took advantage of this, and used his finisher again on the already stunned George for the victory. Brower wins with his finisher-PILEDRIVER in a time of 8:57.
MATCH 5: NUMBER ONE CONTENDERS MATCH FOR THE T.A.G. TELEVISION BELT -- KARL GOTCH VS TED DIBIASE Experts felt DiBiase was out-matched going into this bout. What they did not count on was the fact that DiBiase would be able to apply his finisher a total of four times in the match. Gotch barely managed any offense, but almost managed to get DiBiase to submit to an Octopus Hold. That was it for Gotch. DiBiase clearly had the match in hand and went on to take the win. Ted DiBiase wins with his finisher-MILLION DOLLAR DREAM in a time of 9:18 and gets a Title Shot at T.A.G. Television Champ Randy Savage at the Pay-Per-View!
MATCH 6: BRUNO SAMMARTINO (with Bob Backlund) VS THE MOUNTIE This match was all Sammartino. Bruno gave the Mountie a wrestling lesson he will not soon forget. After two submission holds to weaken the Mountie, Bruno went for his finisher for the win. Bruno gets an easy win with his finisher-BEARHUG in a time of 6:11.
MATCH 7: NUMBER ONE CONTENDERS MATCH FOR THE T.A.G. HEAVYWEIGHT BELT -- PEDRO MORALES VS TED ARCIDI Morales tried for the early win with his finisher, but could not get Arcidi to submit. After pounding on Arcidi for a bit, Morales tossed him out of the ring, and managed to get a win via count-out. Morales wins by count-out in a time of 10:09 and gets a Title Shot at T.A.G. Heavyweight Champ at the Pay-Per-View!
MATCH 8: BOB BACKLUND & FRANK GOTCH VS SANDMAN & PAPA SHANGO (with Skandar Akbar) Sandman & Shango win when Frank Gotch was disqualified against Shango in a time of 3:45.
MATCH 9: T.A.G. HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP MANNY FERNANDEZ VS GINO HERNANDEZ -- TITLE BOUT Heavyweight Champ Fernandez came to play! Seeming more prepared than his opponent for the championship match, Fernandez kept using Raging Bulldozers until he got the victory! Manny Fernandez wins with a Raging Bulldozer in a time of 6:34 to retain the Belt.

[glow=limegreen,2,300][/glow] CARD 33: PPV on Friday, December 21, 2007 @ the RYAN CENTER -- Kingston RI DARK MATCH 1: BRAD ARMSTRONG VS MIKE DIBIASE Brad seemed to have the advantage in the match, garnering two pin attempts, but in the end, it ended a twenty minute draw.
DARK MATCH 2: THE CONQUISTADORS VS SANDMAN & PAPA SHANGO In a much shorter match than the last one, Conquistador 1 was DQed. Sandman & Papa Shango win when Conquistador 1 was disqualified against Sandman in a time of 9:10.
=== EVENT BROADCAST === Terry Taylor came out and requested the General Manager talk to him in the ring. Ted Arcidi made his way down to the ring. "As you know, Mr. Arcidi, I have just signed a contract with T.A.G. There seemed to be a problem that I just noticed on the contract though. It says I have to wrestle as the 'Red Rooster' while I am here, but you will notice that my contract also states that I have creative control as to how my career will go here in T.A.G." Mr. Arcidi replied, "That's right. So?" Taylor continued, "I am not going to wrestle as the Red Roster. That's the bottom line." Surprisingly, Mr. Arcidi took this in stride. "Okay, I will tell you what I will do: Let's have a match between you and me. Tonight. If you win, you don't have to be the Red Rooster. But if I win, then you DO have to be the Red Rooster for as long as you are in T.A.G." Taylor thought about it a moment and said, "Okay, you are on!" The two shook hands and the PPV was underway!
MATCH 1: MIKE GEORGE VS BULLDOG BROWER In a rematch from the last fight card, George and Brower had another "Battle of the Piledrivers". This time, George struck first with his finisher, and Brower struck next. Thinking he would not get caught, Brower pulled out a foreign object and used it on George. However, he WAS caught, and the referee called for the bell, DQing Brower for the illegal conduct. Brower was disqualified for using a foreign object in a time of 10:02.
MATCH 2: "HANDS OF STONE" RON GARVIN (with Magnum T.A.) VS THE MOUNTIE After exchanging Piledrivers, Cross Body Blocks, Boston Crabs, and finishers, The Mountie was eventually DQed for using the Shock Stick on Garvin. The Mountie was disqualified in a time of 16:38.
MATCH 3: KARL GOTCH VS RICK RUDE Karl Gotch started the match by using his finisher two times in a row. Rude barely managed to escape defeat and kicked out on both pin attempts. Rude fought back and gained the momentum after delivering a Top Rope Sledgehammer, followed by his finisher, which he tripled up on. Gotch, severely weakened by the assault, was ready for the kill. Rude got the victory with his next attempted pin in a very hard-fought match. Rude pins Karl Gotch with a Piledriver in a time of 18:14.
MATCH 4: TERRY TAYLOR VS TED ARCIDI Taylor started out the match in fifth gear and never looked back. Hitting Arcidi with his finisher, he then wrapped Arcidi up in a Boston Crab, and followed that up with another finisher! This was more than enough for Taylor to grab a victory! Terry Taylor wins with his finisher-FLYING FOREARM in a time of 2:47.
MATCH 5: T.A.G. TEAM CHAMPIONS FRANK GOTCH & BRUNO SAMMARTINO VS LEIF CASSIDY & MARTY JANETTY -- TITLE BOUT As the match started, Cassidy hit his finisher quickly, getting a surprise pin attempt early on. Gotch came back with his own finisher as the two battled for several minutes. Each man tagged to their partners. Janetty managed to get a near-fall pin attempt on Sammartino, but Bruno came roaring back with his finisher to win the match, as the champs retain their Belts! Frank Gotch & Bruno win when Bruno used his finisher-BACKBREAKER on Janetty in a time of 18:00.
MATCH 6: BOB BACKLUND VS SERGEANT SLAUGHTER -- TEXAS DEATH MATCH A fairly easy match for the former T.A.G. Heavyweight Champ. After getting a pin attempt and using his finisher twice, Backlund went on to win by pinfall. Backlund wins with his finisher-ROLLING BACKBRIDGE in a time of 1:24.
After the bout, Backlund took the microphone and thanked the fans for their support and said he would be moving on with his career. The fans gave him a standing ovation for several minutes.
MATCH 7: T.A.G. TELEVISION CHAMPION RANDY SAVAGE (with Elizabeth) VS TED DIBIASE (with Rick Rude) -- TITLE BOUT DiBiase went for the kill early with his finisher, but Savage made it to the ropes to break the hold. After that, Savage gained control and pounded on DiBiase relentlessly. Sensing things were heading south in a hurry, DiBiase left the ring and ran back to be dressing room. Savage wins when Ted DiBiase was counted-out in a time of 6:11.
MATCH 8: BEST OF SEVEN SERIES (Bout # 5) -- MAGNUM T.A. VS NIKITA KOLOFF -- STEEL CAGE (Magnum leads the series 3 - 1) Magnum escapes the cage after a vertical suplex in a hard-fought but lackluster match in a time of 6:31 to win the Best of Seven series four-to-one!
MATCH 9: T.A.G. HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION MANNY FERNANDEZ VS PEDRO MORALES -- TWO-OUT-OF-THREE FALLS TITLE BOUT
First Fall -- Fernandez had an early pin attempt, but could not secure the win. He followed this up with his finisher. Pedro made a comeback with a submission hold. Right after that, Pedro cinched in his finisher to take the first fall. Pedro wins the first fall with his finisher-BOSTON CRAB in a time of 8:42.
Second Fall -- Determined to take the next fall, Fernandez hit Pedro with an all-out blitz, hitting Pedro with his finisher twice on his way to win the second fall! Fernandez wins the second fall with his finisher-FLYING BURRITO in a time of 6:48.
Final Fall -- In a quick fall, Fernandez finished off Pedro to retain the T.A.G. Heavyweight Belt! Fernandez wins with a Swinging Neckbreaker in a time of 2:30.
