Both men worked babyface during this program. At the same time they teamed to challenge the top heels the WLW tag-team champions the Medics. 2/14/80 Rome, GA. – Main Event – Las Vegas Pole Match – Austin Idol vs. Kevin Sullivan 2/24/90 Omni – Handicap Match – Loser Leaves Town – Tony Atlas defeated Killer Khan and Great Mephisto – this is huge in the history of GCW – Great Mephisto out as booker. Ole Anderson returns as booker. This was the only show that Ole had worked up until this point in the month of February. There were a lot of shakeups on this card due to the no shows by Ernie Ladd and Tommy Rich. Dutch Mantell replaced Ernie Ladd, Steve Travis replaced Mr. Wrestling 2 to work against Killer Khan, while Mr. Wrestling 2 was bumped into the Main Event to replace Rich and challenge Harley Race for the World Heavyweight Championship. 2/26/80 Macon, GA. – Coal Miner’s Glove Match – Kevin Sullivan defeated Austin Idol
