Dark Matches:
Match 1
Marty Jannetty made his Dothan debut here tonight taking on a veteran of these parts, Ted Allen. These two show why fans in these parts have been calling for SECW to bring the United States Jr. Heavyweight title back, in a hotly contested match up. The grappling was an even exchange, but continually ended with Jannetty reversing out of a hold, hitting the ropes, ducking a shot from Allen, and hitting one of his own. He was rockin’ and rollin’ and finished Allen with a high cross body delivered from the top rope with precision and great timing @ 17’24

Match 2
Southern rasslin veteran Roy Lee Welch once again met up with talented youngster Frankie ‘Thumper’ Lancaster in another back and forth exchange. Welch worked over the youngster’s leg, keeping his stronger adversary grounded. Lancaster though persevered and was able to reverse a spinning toe hold into an inside cradle and picked up a hard fought victory @ 14’41
=====================================================================================
Charlie Platt and Rick Stewart welcome everyone to another exciting edition of Southeastern Championship Wrestling. They air the conclusion of the Southeastern Heavyweight Championship Battle Royal from this past week in Mobile, Al. Mr. Wrestling II left the Civic Center Arena with the championship title, but the NWA board has ruled that he is NOT the champion! President Lou Thesz has issued a proclamation and that this coming Saturday, Nov. 2nd when SECW returns home to Birmingham, Alabama, the Final four men from that battle royal, Jimmy Golden, Austin Idol, Mr. Wrestling II, and the Tonga Kid would be deciding the champion ONCE AND FOR ALL. We will have details coming up shortly, right now let’s head to the ring for some in-ring action!
Match 1
The Beatles’ Come Together brought to the ring The Tennessee Stud and his evil henchmen, the South African Assassin Boomer T. Lynch and the mysterious masked Flame. His two menacing monsters dominated The Galaxians from bell to bell, much to the delight of Mr. Fuller. Flame pinned Alpha following a devastating over the shoulder back breaker
@ 7'07

ELO’S DON’T BRING ME DOWN brings out Johnny Rich, Scott Armstrong, and Tonga Kid; RAT Patrol, Inc. to a raucous ovation. Awaiting them is the menacing duo of DC Drake and demented Damien Kane, along with their partner the masked sensation the Cheetah Kid!
MATCH 2
The larger and scarier opponents took it to Rich and Armstrong in the early going, but the Dothan audience willed their heroes back into it, and Armstrong finished Kane with his missile shoulder block delivered from the middle rope @ 6’22
After the contest the Rat Patrol joined Rick Stewart at the interview desk, and TK was not at a loss of words. The Tonga Kid is tired of playing Mr. Wrestling II’s games. Nobody is more excited than the Tonga Kid about the guarantee made by the honorable Lou Thesz, and that finally there would be a fair fight, and a rightful champion named. Scott and Johnny want to take the time to wish Scott’s Brother Steve a speedy recovery, and that Arn Anderson and Pat Rose had better watch out, if the Rat Patrol gets a title shot, they’ll do it for Stevie, and if Scotty knows one thing about Poppa Armstrong, it is that Arn Anderson is in big trouble.
Speaking of the devils, LED ZEPPELIN’S KASHMERE hits, leading the Southeastern Tag Team Champions, Double A and Precious Pat to the ring, led by the Tennessee Stud, Arn shoots Scott a look and a laugh as he makes his way to ringside for action…
MATCH 3
‘Cowboy’ Tony Falk and the Executioner are awaiting their champs, and as Arn and Scott are arguing, there is a commotion ongoing. BOB ARMSTRONG has entered the ring, and asked the Executioner to step aside! Bob gives the Cowboy a nod, and the duo hits the floor and jumps the champs!!!!
Bob Armstrong throws Arn into the ring, and opens up fists and fire, double A is doing his best to block these shots with his forearms, but the Bullet is overwhelming him at this point, running on the potent fuel of guts and emotion. The adrenaline dump hits Bob hard and he is noticeably slowing down, but refuses to tag the Cowboy! Anderson hits the floor, and the chase is on! Arn slides into the ring, and catches Armstrong coming in, genius move by Arn, and now he tags in Precious Pat, who goes to town on Armstrong as well! Ton Falk has seen enough and rushes in with a big boot to the gut for Rose, and drags Bob to their corner, where he tags himself in. The problem for Tony is that when he got into the ring, Arn Anderson was waiting on him! Double A roughed up Falk for a bit, and sucked out all the momentum in the building. As he was about to hit his Ghordbuster, Bob Armstrong rushed in to defend his partner, and referee Ron West has no choice but to call for the bell and give this one to the champs!
The Tennessee Stud has grabbed the tag team titles and is leading his boys away from the ring, but the Bullet and his buddy Tony Falk are hot on the trail!

ARN ANDERSON!!! Let me tell you something, I have had my share of matches against your big brother Ole in the Omni, I know exactly what the Anderson family is all about. Steve and I knew what we were getting into when we made the decision to go after those tag titles, but Arn, it ain’t about titles anymore. It ain’t about having the time of my life teaming with one of my boys. It’s about defending my boy. ANDERSON YOU HURT MY SON! MY SON! You said last week that you would be willing to eat a Bullet to prove you’re right, what the hell you think I’m willing to do to defend and protect my son, Arn? This Saturday Night, an SECW Heavyweight Champion will be crowned in Birmingham, and I wish I cared. I wish I cared who won, I wish I was standing here telling II, or Golden, or Tonga Kid, or Austin Idol to watch out cause Bob Armstrong is after em, but I don’t care. All that’s on my mind is Arn Anderson, that’s why I’ve asked for and been granted a Birmingham Street Fight with Arn Anderson. No countouts, the referee won’t stop it for brutality or violence. I will get penance Arn Anderson!
Charlie Platt and Rick Stewart agree that they’ve never seen Bob Armstrong like that, and urge any and everyone who can make it to Birmingham on 11/2 to do so. Not only will Bob Armstrong and Arn Anderson lock horns in a street fight, but we would finally crown a Heavyweight Champion. There is only a minute or two left in the show, and the guys wanted to save the announcement for the end of the show. In an official statement from the NWA and Southeastern Championship Wrestling offices, SECW is on the cutting edge of Wrestling, and will always come up with creative solutions for complex problems. That is why on Saturday November the 2nd in our home of Birmingham, Alabama, FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER…
Mr. Wrestling II will meet the Tonga Kid, AND Jimmy Golden, AND Austin Idol in what is being referred to as a SURVIVAL ELIMINATION MATCH! And any man other than those four who impacts the outcome of that contest will face a 5 THOUSAND DOLLAR FINE, and SUSPENSION!

Dark Matches:
Following that announcement, once the TV lights went down, Mr. Wrestling II and his protégé simply known as III came to ringside and were complaining to Platt and Stewart who say that they just report the news, they don’t make it! Just then BILLY JOEL’S YOU MAY BE RIGHT/LUNATIC hits and the Houston County Farm Center explodes!!!
MATCH 1
The Universal Heartthrob teamed with ‘Golden Boy’ Jerry Grey to take on Wrestling II and III in a back and forth tag team contest that was hot and heavy from the opening bell. Austin Idol locked III into the Las Vegas Leg Lock, and his buddy Grey was there to cut off Mr. Wrestling II! III had no choice but to give this one up @ 14’26

Semi-Final
STEVIE RAY VAUGHN’S version of the immortal, VOODOO CHILE blasts across the PA, and Mr. Perfect himself swaggers out from the back, Jerry Stubbs, led to the ring by The Tennessee Stud. Awaiting him is Jerry Oates who made his return to Alabama a couple of months ago with Stubbs on his mind and these two have really been going at it of late. Stubbs has a genius idea tonight, as he spends the opening bit of the contest wrestling when Oates wanted a fist fight, and just when Oates got into wrestling mode, Mr. Perfect balled up his fists and took it to the former champ! Oates fought back valiantly, but Jerry Stubbs was on the top of his game tonight, and finished off Oates with a piledriver @ 21’59

MAIN EVENT
1 Fall 60 Minute Time Limit
Miss Sunshine and her boys ‘Gorgeous’ Gary Young and ‘The Suicide Blonde’ Jack Victory are awaiting in the ring as PARLIAMENT FUNKADELIC’S ATOMIC DOG hits and the Alabama Heavyweight Champion PORKCHOP CASH and his good buddy BRICKHOUSE BROWN juke and jive their way to the ring! The Dothan crowd loves it, but Gary and Jack are Young and Restless and take the fight directly to the popular duo! The Choppa barely escaped with his Alabama Title in tact this past week in Mobile as Gary Young took it to him, and tonight is more of the same. Cash was able to tag in his pal Brickhouse who came in fists and fire, working at a pace that Young and Victory couldn’t keep up with. Brown’s problem was the power and size of his opponents as Victory side stepped a big dropkick and sent Brown crashing to the mat, his head bouncing like a basketball! Then, like a well oiled machine, under the direction of Miss Sunshine, Victory made the tag to the Gorgeous One and then nailed Porkchop on the apron as Young came in and dropped a running knee drop across the forehead of Brick and picked up the win @ 19’33
