80s wrestling talent booked under today's concepts
Jul 13th, 2009, 8:55pm
 
How would you book say a 1987 or 1988 Great American Bash using the NWA wrestlers from back then, but with today's wrestling concepts? I think it is cool to think how the card might look like. Here is how I might book such a card:
 
NWA World Heavyweight Title
(Triple Threat Match:

 
"Nature Boy" Ric Flair vs. Sting vs. "Total Package" Lex Luger
 
United States Heavyweight Title
(Hell in a Cell Match)

 
"The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes vs. Barry Windham
 
Bra and Panties Match
 
Baby Doll vs. Precious
 
NWA World Tag Team Title Match
(Tables, Ladders, and Chairs)

Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard vs. Midnight Express w/Jim Cornette vs. Fantastics
 
NWA World Television Title  
(Hardcore Rules)

 
Rick Steiner vs. Dr. Death Steve Williams
 
Money In the Bank Ladder Match
(winner gets a free steak dinner with Jim Herd)

 
Ron Garvin vs. Nikita Koloff vs. Al Perez vs. Mike Rotunda vs. Kevin Sullivan vs. Michael P.S. Hayes vs. Larry Zbysko vs. Gorgeous Jimmy Garvin

You could kinda do a Vince Russo booking a classic Bash show deal....
 
How about NWA Cockdown - a whole card where everymatch is a Bra & Panties match?? Certainly wouldn't like to see one of those featuring the Roadwarriors vs the Russians....
 
Or how about this:
 

1988 Great American Bash - renamed The Bash so as not to offend our Afghan friends overseas....

 
MAIN EVENT - WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP under WWE RAW TV main event rules:
(One of the most dangerous matches in wrestling - neither man can win, as the bout will end in a double DQ due to the Horseman running in and attacking Luger before either man can score a pinfall)
 
LEX LUGER vs RIC FLAIR
 
 
 
U.S TITLE - SCRAMBLE MATCH
(Match will last 30 mins and the title will officially change hands on at least 50 occasions, doubling the length of the title history in one night, and rendering the belt completely irrelevant as whoever wins has already held the belt twice that night alone, & its a championship that everyone, including the Italian Stallion, has held)
 
Barry Windham vs Nikita Koloff vs Jimmy Garvin vs Italian Stallion  
 
 
 

KING OF THE MOUNTAIN match - renamed 'Bull Of The Woods match'

(Whoever owns / books the company will wins. The rules are so convoluted and hard to follow that you won't be very sure what they've won or why you should care)
 
Dusty Rhodes vs Sting vs Mike Rotundo vs Larry Zybyszko
 
 
 

ULTIMATE X-MATCH

(Winners will not appear on television for up to six months)
 
Russian Assassins vs Ronnie Garvin / Jimmy Valiant vs Roadwarriors vs Powers Of Pain  
 
 
 

UNIFIED TAG TEAM TITLE - DARK MATCH RULES (in this case U.S tag unified with World tag)

(winners will be the 1st Unified tag champs - match will not be promoted or broadcast on the live PPV. Losing team will be split up, despite being over and successful, and winning team will be booked to loose undercard matches for the foreseeable future)
 
Arn & Tully vs Midnight Express  
 
 
 
 
WRESTLEMANIA MAIN EVENT RULES MATCH
(Loser must kick out of opponents finisher at least 3 times before match can end)
 
Mighty Wilbur vs Ivan Koloff
 
 
 

TV TITLE - MIDGET LADDER MATCH

- first one to grow tall enough to reach the belt and grab it wins
 
Kevin Sullivan vs Rick Steiner
