Oktoberfest 84 on Tour!

Coming to you LIVE from the Garrett Coliseum in Montgomery, Al 

Friday Night 10/4

7 PM Bell Time

Referees in charge of the action: Ron West, Bobby Simmons, and Mac Murray

The youngster from Southaven, MS, Brickhouse Brown took on the Ragin Bull from the Mississippi Delta, Randy Barber in a back and forth opening contest. After battling through every dirty trick in the book the big Brick picked up the duke after a swinging neck breaker @ 9’01



Mr. Naka and Mr. Koba, the Rising Suns hooked it up with Roy Lee Welch and the monstrous Hacksaw Higgins. The junior heavies matched up well against each other, seeing the young boys from Japan nearly have Welch in a predicament after Kobayashi locked in the Octopus hold but a boot to the side of the head from Higgins allowed Roy Lee to lock in the Welch’s family secret Figure Four Leglock for the victory @ 10’41



George Thorogood’s “Bad to the Bone” led Steve Armstrong to the ring as he locked up with “In High Demand” Jimmy Backlund. While Steve was shaking hands and kissing babies Backlund grabbed the mic from ring announcer Freddie Miller and said that Armstrong needed to pick up the pace, he had places to be, and jobs to do, he was hot property across this great country! After an early advantage, Steve Armstrong obliged him after picking up a pinfall @ 7’22 after a solid shoulder block from the middle rope.



The Tennessee Volunteers ‘Cowboy’ Tony Falk and ‘Lookout’ Bobby Garrett waited in the ring as Stevie Ray Vaughn’s “Voodoo Chile” brought out Stud Stable members South African Boomer T. Lynch and Mr. Perfect with Ron Fuller. The Volunteers gave the Stable all they could handle. It was the power and experience edge that got Stubbs and Boomer the advantage, Stubbs had Falk locked in his Perfect Leg Lock and Lynch delivered a rib rattling splash that preceded a 3 count @ 12’22

Led Zeppelin’s “Kashmere” can mean only one thing, 

ARN ANDERSON and PAT ROSE!!!

Their opponents come out to the familiar “Don’t Bring me Down” by the Electric Light Orchestra

SCOTT ARMSTRONG and JOHNNY RICH!!!

Southeastern Tag Team Championship 

©Arn Anderson and ‘Precious’ Pat Rose w/Ron Fuller vs. Rat Patrol, Inc. members Scott Armstrong and Johnny Rich 

Scott Armstrong and Pat Rose might be the most evenly matched wrestlers in all of SECW and displayed back and forth, chain, catch-as-catch can grappling that would make Johnny Walker pleased, but it was the Einstein-esque Tag Team strategy that is the Anderson birth right that made a big difference. Arn and Pat cut the ring off and dissected the shoulder of the baby Armstrong. Scotty has the fire his family is so well known for and was able to tag out to Johnny, who came in FISTS AND FIRE! He had the champs rocking and rolling, and had Rose covered for a count of 5 easily with the Lou Thesz press, what he didn’t know was that Arn had made a blind tag and planted the unsuspecting Johnny Rich with a DDT and Ron West could’ve counted to 30 after 32’32

First match after the intermission saw the massive Hacksaw Higgins from Stone Mountain Georgia take on the masked Galaxian Alpha, and in a glorified squash Higgins impressed all those in attendance. After squeezing the masked man nearly unconscious the big man pivoted directly into a belly to belly suplex and hold to pick up the victory @ 6’18

Parliament Funkadelic’s “Atomic Dog” hits, bringing out the Alabama Heavyweight Champion to a thunderous reaction here at the Garrett Coliseum! 

defends against the lovely but shady Miss Sunshine's charge "Gorgeous" Gary Young who appropriately come out to Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog"

w

Porkchop Cash’s opponent, the Gorgeous One, Gary Young along with the beautiful but shady Miss Sunshine were all business and took it to the Porkster from the openingbell. Young had things well under control, but paid the ultimate price for toying with Cash instead of putting him away. He ate the leaping booty bump, a diving head butt from the middle rope, and a running powerslam that sealed a successful title defense for Porkchop Cash @ 10’06

Up next is one of the most heated rivalries in all of professional wrestling, Rush’s “Limelight” blares across the PA System welcoming THE LIGHTNING EXPRESS!!!

Vs

The Nightmares who are accompanied by KISS’ “God of Thunder” and their buddy Rapid is sent to the back!

It didn’t take long for Speed and Flash to re-open the deep laceration sustained by Tim Horner in Dothan this past Wednesday and it looked like a horror movie scene in there! Luckily for Horner it made it a bit easier to slip out of precarious situations. He tagged in his partner, who came in a man possessed delivering dropkicks, clotheslines, forearms, and running knee lifts to anything wearing a mask. Only so long the numbers game did play a factor though. That is when Horner reinserted himself into the contest, and it was Katie bar the door! Horner and Flash, and Armstrong and Speed are going at it tooth and nail, without thought of consequence. Seemingly as Ref. Bobby Simmons was going to throw this one out, he was taken down from behind by the brawl! At this point Flash was really taking it to Horner, but that didn’t stop Armstrong from doing work on Speed. Flash hits a diving elbow drop, Armstrong hits his Russian Leg Sweep and floats over, Simmons is coming to, 1………2………..3!!!

Armstrong is celebrating! But so is Flash! Now Flash and Armstrong are arguing, and now fighting!!! Freddie Miller makes the announcement that as a result of a double pin, this match has been declared a NO CONTEST!! Finally the locker rooms clear out and are finally able to separate the teams…

SEMI MAIN EVENT
1 Fall 60 Minute Time Limit

Billy Joel’s “You May Be Right/Lunatic” brings out THE UNIVERSAL HEARTTHROB, THE BOSS; AUSTIN IDOL who has brought his girl MINERVA with him!

Just then, ZZ Top’s “Beer Drinkers and Hell Raisers” brings out JIMMY GOLDEN and his manager RON FULLER
w

The Tennessee Stud is demanding that Minerva be left at the timekeepers table, and get's his wish. Austin makes the mistake of turning his back on the devious Golded in order to safely drop off his girl at the timekeepers table, but The Boss was ready for the sneak attack this time, dodged the bull rush of Golden who crashed face first into the turnbuckle! Idol rolls him up, 1…..2……..NO! Golden barely kicks out, but starts eating jabs, crosses, uppercuts, and straight rights from the former Nevada State Golden Gloves boxing champion! Idol mixes in a little jig and has Golden right where he wants him! Idol is really feeling it here tonight and is cooking now, have mercy! Every woman's pet and every man's regret has Golden in big trouble as he drops his knee right across the bridge of Golden's nose, sending him flopping around the ring like a catfish on the banks of the Mighty Mississippi!

Idol is really doing a number on Golden’s knees now, setting him up for the Las Vegas Leg Lock, but The Tennessee Stud see’s the writing on the wall and jumps up on the apron. Just like in Dothan, Idol is able to get his hands on Fuller and gives him a good wallop. But fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me, and Austin Idol is no fool! When Golden came charging at him, Idol dodged the boot and Golden crotched himself across the middle rope! Idol waistlocks him and goes behind, rolling reverse cradle, 1……2……3! Idol picks up the duke @ 24’22

MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING 

1 FALL with a 60 Minute Time Limit

Is for the Southeastern Heavyweight Championship

Senior Official Ron West in charge of the action

The incomparable champion  

is joined by his cohort III, but he gets sent to the back as ELO'S "Don't Bring Me Down" blasts and the Garrett Coliseum hits their feet for the arrival of the challenger!

The Tonga Kid, who has been waiting for this since early September when Mr. Wrestling II waited until Scott Armstrong and Johnny Rich were out of the picture to introduce III to Southeastern Championship Wrestling and the duo used the steel ringpost to, for a time, eliminate the top contender for II's Southeastern Heavyweight strap. Tonga comes out a house of fire, but II controls and manipulates that aggression in the early going, by continually complaining that the “grease ball” has applied extra oil for an unfair advantage. The cantankerous champion even demands that Mr. West get a towel and wipe down the Tonga Kid! Now as the adrenaline begins to ware off the youngster, the cagey veteran is ready to make his move.

The gamesmanship might have just backfired though as Tonga Kid gained his second wind and began wrestling like he was in someone else’s body throwing total caution to the wind and hitting II with everything he had! TK picked up several near falls, but the ring general that Mr. Wrestling II has the uncanny ability to fall near the ropes each and every time he ends up on his back. It was TK’s shoulder that II and III used the steel ringpost to injure, and it was shoulder breaker, perfectly executed by TK, that planted II in the center of the ring! The Tonga Kid is now going to the top rope, obviously looking for the Superfly Splash, but wait just a second, what is II doing? Wrestling II has pulled something from his tights and placed it under his knee pads!!! TK FLIES, but crashes down chest first across the loaded knee pad of Mr. Wrestling II and was easy pickings for a tight inside cradle and II has retained the gold @ 18’51

Oktoberfest 84 on Tour!

Coming to you LIVE from Boutwell Auditorium in beautiful Birmingham, Al 

Saturday Night 10/5

7 PM Bell Time

Referees in charge of the action: Ron West, Bobby Simmons, and Mac Murray

The fiery youngster Frankie Lancaster met the menacing Cuban, Angel Acevado in the opening contest, and suffered a brutal beating in the early going, but capitalized on a rare mistake by the veteran and finished him off with a backdrop suplex @ 7’44



RAT Patrol Inc.’s theme music, “Don’t Bring Me Down” by ELO hits leading Scott Armstrong to the ring where ‘Leapin’ Lanny Poffo is prepared for battle. These two top junior heavyweights matched up extremely well and put on a great show for the fans as they jockeyed for a possible shot at the Jr. Heavyweight Championship of the World currently held by Tiger Mask. Scott was able to parry an attempted top rope dropkick and pick up the win with a jack-knife cover @ 13’23



This time “Don’t Bring Me Down” led The Tonga Kid to the ring, still reeling from coming just thisclose to capturing the Southeastern Heavyweight Championship in Montgomery. Tonight he was tested heavily by Europe’s Black Tiger in a fantastic and even match up. Kid was able to reverse an attempted Crucifix Pin from Tiger into a Samoan Drop and pick up a hard earned victory @ 11’59



Stevie Ray Vaughn’s “Voodoo Chile” brought down Mr. Perfect Jerry Stubbs along with his manager the Tennessee Stud Ron Fuller. Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the USA” got the Boutwell rocking as wrestling’s hottest prospect, former Syracuse All-American; Mike Rotundo made his first appearance in SECW. Stubbs and Rotundo put on a wrestling clinic, but the youngster kept getting the upper hand in the wrestling exchanges, frustrating the vet. Stubbs knows all the tricks though and an undetected thumb to the eye turned the tide of battle. Rotundo kept fighting back, but took a NASTY tumble to the floor landing on the back of his head, and apparently straining his knee. It was an entirely different contest after this that saw Stubbs narrowly escaped after a brain buster @ 28’30

Led Zeppelin’s “Black Dog” led Sunshine’s boys ‘Gorgeous’ Gary Young and the ‘Suicide Blonde’ Jack Victory to the ring were Alpha and Beta, the Galaxians awaited. Young and Victory worked well as a unit under the direction of Sunshine and finished off Beta with their version of the Hart Attack with Young using a diving shoulder block instead of a clothesline @ 9’14



“LIMELIGHT” by RUSH hit which can only mean one thing, the hottest team in wrestling, Horner and Armstrong the Lightning Express were on their way! They met one of the best duos in the entire world as they took on Josef and Dean Malenko in a classic tag team wrestling encounter. Both teams had their fair share of momentum. The Malenko’s decided though that they wanted to take Brad Armstrong’s right arm home with them, and nearly did. Luckily Brad was blessed with that never-say-quit Armstrong DNA, and managed to find his partner. Horner took control, but was also grounded by the wrestling mastery of the Malenko Brothers. Joe set a second too early for a back body drop, ate a knee lift, which gave Horner the opportunity to hit his top rope dropkick for the 1…….2….. Brad cuts Dean off, and the 3 count @ 33’33 of a helluva wrestling match.



George Clinton’s “Atomic Dog” led the defending Alabama Heavyweight Champion Porkchop Cash to the ring, shucking and jiving with his people. Once in the ring though he encountered his stiffest challenge yet from the dreaded Grappler. The masked man appeared to have the title won on multiple occasions, and especially after loading his boot for his patent kick, but the hard head of Porkchop saved his butt and the title as it had little effect on him, and the bewildered Grappler couldn’t defend against Cash’s running powerslam and pinfall @ 12’06

SEMI MAIN EVENT

FOR THE SOUTHEASTERN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP

©Mr. Wrestling II defends against Brian Blair

This was another stellar wrestling contest. II has had a string of title defenses that have seen the rugged veteran reach down deep into the playbook to come out on top. Blair nearly had the cantankerous II finished several times, nearly getting an unheard of submission out of Mr. Wrestling with the Boston Crab. But II was able to get to the ropes, and caught the unsuspecting Blair with the Million Dollar Knee Lift to barely escape with his title @ 15’47

MAIN EVENT
LIGHTS OUT UNSANCTIONED STREET FIGHT
BATTLE OF BIRMINGHAM

Led Zeppelin’s “Kashmere” can mean only one thing

The Southeastern Tag Team Champions Double A and Precious Pat team with Boomer T. Lynch

VS

Thats when George Thorogood’s “Bad to the Bone” hits, welcoming

Bob and Steve Armstrong.

Bob grabbed the house mic and says that for a match of this magnitude, he and his boy Steve needed a special partner, a partner of equal magnitude, one that the great fans of Alabama and the ENTIRE COUNTRY COULD BE PROUD OF, so hit that music and bring out partner out here!

… The Familiar sound of "TAPS" ...

It Cant be

It has to be

It is

IT'S SERGEANT SLAUGHTER!!!

Fuller, Rose, and Lynch go bonkers with the crowd. Double A doesn’t appear as though he could care any less, and the battle of Birmingham is underway! What a brutal affair it was! Steve and Pat Rose paired off and battled around the ringside area. Bob Armstrong and his hated enemy, Arn Anderson hooked it up and never separated, going from inside to outside back inside, using trash cans, the guard rail, ring posts, and anything else not nailed down. All four of these men were bleeding buckets. Meanwhile the Sarge and the massive South African Assassin Boomer T. Lynch squared off inside the ring. Not a fan in the Boutwell sat down during this thing, that even saw Ron Fuller and his cane get involved, and then become uninvolved real quick when the Sarge got his hands on the cane. Fuller could do nothing but watch as The Armstrong’s had the tag champs tied up and were destroying a concession stand and Sergeant Slaughter applied the Cobra Cluth WITH RON FULLER’S CANE! The rugged Lynch wouldn’t submit, but the lights went out and referee Ron West called a stop to melee @ 16’02

[thecommish]

Lots of great action on these shows. Tonga had the gold in his grasp - but II proved why the experience edge always maters. It was very cool to see Slaughter show up as well.

[Sniper Niles]

Great action from the get go.

Totally love the White Lightnin Vs. Nightmare feud. The best part it's 10 times hotter than the Tag team title feud. Love it.

Great work here.

[tlyne]

Great shows. The Crimson Tide fans needed something exciting. The legendary Ray Perkins had the Tide off to a 1-3 start and had just lost to Vanderbilt. Slaughter would have brought the house down. Fantastic surprise appearence. I can't to see whaere this goes.

[jackknight]

Two really good shows. Enjoyed "In Demand" Backlund's promo as well as the Tag Champs defeating the Lightning Express. Don't believe for a second that Hacksaw Higgins could beat Galaxian Alpha though. For one he came all the way from outerspace and for two; according to my tapes he had a devastating finisher where he would've zapped Higgins into dust with his ray gun. I'm thinking Higgins cheated for that win. Glad to see Mr. Wrestling II not putting up with the cheating of the Tonga Kid either, greasing himself up like that. Nice win for the Champ.

The second show was a lot of fun as well. Rotundo vs. Stubbs would've definitely been the match of the night; but seeing Slaughter put Lynch in his place with the Clutch was great as well.

[Chitohausen]

The tag team Champs remind me of the AA / Stubbs team IRL, and that's definitely a good thing, as those two were an awesome team. I don't think there's a team in SECW that will be able to take the titles off of them.

And speaking of great tag teams, the Nightmares might just be the greatest of them all! I've got a couple of DVDs of SECW from right around the time they switched to Continental, and I absolutely loved the Nightmares!

There's so much going on here, SECW is definitely going to be must-read for me every week!
