I really like this format, Mikey. Simple, yet effective.  
 
Memphis Mafia was on a roll until the damn TV with Kroffat...Gama dominated. Mike Shaw has really bad luck and should just give up. Leo Burke for some good defenses and some great debuts. I love "The Tennessee Studs" name. Great way to go.

Shaw had a bad week. The Mafia had just one bad match but what it cost them! Neidhart and Robinson would have had my money. Burke is tightening the stranglehold on that belt. looking forward to seeing what you have for Orton.
 
Great show.

Up to date in the Foothills...
 
Mike, don't know if it is because Stampede is my "home" but things just seem to be "hot", from the Jan. catchup to the Can Am tourney to very good TV to these shows.  Like the law man Kroffat role, and possibly Creatchman rebounding.  The tourney in particular, shows a great grasp of keeping the timetables straight - future megastars portrayed as youngsters - as well, the Harts not being super strong.  Chuckled at the mysterious sudden appearance of Super Strong Machine, keep the mask well-laced.
 
Apparently, some roster tweaks, I'm very interested in seeing how new stories are laid out.  You have a lot of guys (Shaw) "in character" really well, that can be increased.  IMO, the Memphis Mafia could have been played a bit stronger that way.
