World Wrestling Council
Capital Sports Promotions
Sanctioned by: The National Wrestling Alliance
Referee: Ricky Vargas Benitez
Coliseo Manuel Iguina
Arecibo, Puerto Rico
Attendance: 10,000
 
-Puerto Rican National  Anthem
 
 
Match 1-El Gaucho vs. La Pantera Negra
 
The capacity crowd in Coliseo Manuel Iguina are just as hot inside as it is outside tonight! This opening contest does not disappoint as these two really go at each other with some back and forth action from the bell! El Gaucho looks to have the upper hand after a dropkick but he misses with a knee drop from the top rope and Negra quickly hooks both legs for the pinfall!
 
Winner: La Pantera Negra @8:06
 
Match 2-Super Gladiator vs. El Tigre Perez
 
This one gets rough from the opening bell as Perez dropkicks the Gladiator and he falls through the ropes to the arena floor! Perez then runs and dives through the ropes on top of Gladiator! He then picks Gladiator up and posts him. Super Gladiator appears to be busted open as Perez rolls him back into the ring. El Tigre body slams Gladiator and then climbs to the top rope and flys off with a big splash for the 1,2,3!!
 
Winner: El Tigre Perez @9:01
 
Match 3-El Diablo Mascaras w/Mark Manson vs. "The All American" Don Kernodle
 
As Kernodle is announced to the crowd he stumbles out from behind the curtain and is all ready a bloody mess! He slowly makes his way down to the ring and gets in looking very weak allready! Mascaras and Manson are announced to a plethera of boos while Manson has this evil grin as they come slowly and methodically to the ring. El Diablo Mascaras jumps on the groggy Kernodle even before the bell and is relentless in his beating! Mascaras whips Kernodle to the ropes and goes for a flying forearm but Kernodle ducks and Mascaras hits hard! The fans are behind Kernodle who slowly makes it to his feet and goes over to Mascaras, but Manson has slipped him what looks to be a pencil with tape wrapped around it, and as Kernodle lifts Mascaras up he jabs Kernodle right in the throat! Kernodle goes down as Mascaras hides the object and quickly locks on the camel clutch for the submission victory!
 
Winner: El Diablo Mascaras w/Mark Manson @11:23
 
-Tag Team Quarterfinal Matches-
 
Match 4-Gil Hayes and Rock Riddle vs. "The Kentuckians" Grizzly Smith and Luke Brown
 
The Kentuckians try and use their size and strength to gain the advantage throughout this contest but Hayes and Riddle battle back each time with their quickness and by breaking a few rules here and there! At one point Smith catches Hayes in a big bearhug and is really bearing down. Riddle taunts and tries to enter the ring as does Luke Brown but the referee puts Brown out and as his back is turned Riddle comes in and hits a low blow on Smith causing him to release the hold as he falls to his knees! Riddle quickly runs out and Hayes makes the tag. Riddle comes in and takes full advantage of the "winded" Smith as he slaps on the Boston Crab! Smith tries to escape but cannot and must submit!
 
Winners: Gil Hayes and Rock Riddle @18:21
 
Match 5-The Infernos w/Homer O'Dell vs. Tony Garea and Dean Ho
 
As the bell rings Garea and Inferno #1 start things off with a little test of strength. Inferno #1 kicks Garea in the gut and quickly takes the advantage for his team. The Infernos keep Garea in their half of the ring and really work him over for quite some time. Finally, Garea rolls away toward his corner and makes the tag to Ho who comes in and cleans house! He dropkicks Inferno #2 and then knocks #1 off the ring apron with a shot. He then turns his attention back to #2 and drops an elbow on him. Then he lifts him up for a bodyslam and goes for a knee drop but misses! Inferno #1 has gotten back up on the ring apron and appears to be placing something in his mask! #2 grabs up Ho and hits an uppercut forearm and whips him into the corner where #1 is. He goes over as #1 is holding Ho's trunks out of the referees sight and hits him with a couple shots! Garea tries to come in but the referee puts him out and while this is happening Inferno #2 holds Ho and #1 tries to headbutt him but somehow Ho gets loose and #1 headbutts #2 instead! Ho immediately knocks Inferno #1 off the apron with a dropkick and covers Inferno #2 as the referee turns around for the pinfall!
 
Winners: Tony Garea and Dean Ho @23:34
 
15 Minute Intermission
 
 
Tag Team Semifinal Match
 
Match 6-Tony Garea and Dean Ho vs. Gil Hayes and Rock Riddle
 
The sold out crowd is very hot in more ways than one for this match! Both teams have had grueling matches earlier allready tonight. Ho and Hayes start things off going back and forth for awhile until Hayes hits a side suplex on Ho and tags in Riddle. Riddle quickly drops a knee to Ho's head and goes for the cover.....1....2...Ho kicks out! Riddle lifts him up for a body slam and then an elbow drop. As Riddle tries for another elbow Ho rolls out of the way and Riddle crashes hard to the mat. Ho makes it slowly to the corner and tags in Garea as Riddle tags Hayes! Both men come in fighting but Garea gains the advantage with an uppercut forearm and then a quick neck breaker! He covers Hayes....1...2....Hayes kicks out!! Garea hits the ropes and goes for a knee drop but Hayes moves and Garea's knee hits the mat hard! Hayes makes it to his feet and goes for the figure four when Garea reaches up and grabs him into a small package....1.....2.......3!!!
 
Winners: Tony Garea and Dean Ho @27:39
 
 
Match 7-NWA World Tag Team Championship
Champions: Jesse Ventura and Ken Patera vs. Carlos Colon and Andre the Giant
 
The fans are going nuts for this one as their favorite son Carlos Colon has come home and he has brought the largest athlete in the world with him for this shot at the World Belts!! Colon and Ventura start things off as Colon uses his quickness with soem arm drags and then a beautiful dropkick to take Ventura off his feet! He picks Ventura up and body slams him and then tags in Andre. As the Giant steps over the top rope the crowd stands to their feet roaring! He helps Ventura to his feet and delivers a huge head butt that sends Ventura crashing into his corner where he makes the tag to Patera! Patera cautiously comes in and keeps his distance from the Giant for a little bit until Andre offers his hand for a test of strength..........Patera reluctantly accepts and the two lock up! Andre brings Patera to his knees but Patera fights back and makes it to his feet. He then kicks Andre twice to the stomach and and brings the big man to one knee! Patera breaks the hold and claps his hands popping Andre's ears. This stuns the Giant as patera hits the ropes and delivers a huge shoulder tackle knocking Andre all the way down! Patera tags in Ventura and he comes in fast and drops an elbow on the Giant making the cover........1.....2....Andre bench presses Ventura off his chest as the crowd roars even louder!! Andre makes it up and grabs Ventura for a body slam and then tags Colon in! Colon comes in and drop kicks Ventura then runs over and hits Patera with a forearm knocking him off the ring apron. He then turns around and drops an elbow on Ventura. Colon then signals something to the crowd and locks on the figure four onto Ventura! Ventura tries to escape with everything he has and it looks as if he will have to submit as Andre and Patera are fighting outside. Then down the aisle comes El Diablo Mascaras and Mark Manson........they hit the ring and attack Colon breaking the hold and causing an immediate DQ!!! Patera slides in and grabs up Ventura and the titles as they make a quick escape!! As Andre makes it back in Manson and Mascaras have allready bloodied Colon and quickly run out to avoid the Giant!!! Andre helps Colon to his feet as the crowd cheers loudly!!

Man! Manson and Mascaras looked almost demonic in the Kernodle match. EVIL!!!
 
The match between Riddle and Hayes was back and forth. Garea and Ho were one of my favorite teams back in the day. Good to see them with a win.
 
The outcome of the Patera/ Ventura was a surprise. The new tag champs went from the frying pan into the fire.
 
Guys, stay tuned to WWC. It's going to be one great ride.
