Rodney Grimes' CWA promotion returned to Savannah, TN on Saturday, June 9th with a solid show. Below are the results from the evening's matches.
Gypsy Joe def. J. J. Fuller; Tojo, Jr. (with “Hollywood” Jimmy Blaylock) def. Jose Guerrero; Chris O’Neal def. Flame; Eric Wayne def. Kid Nickels to win the vacant CWA Television Title; Chris Kilgore & Wayne Adkins def. The Nightmare & Tony Dabbs; Doug Gilbert def. Big Nasty Bill by DQ; Beau James & The Super Destroyer def. The Posse to win the CWA Tag Team Title; (Main Event) Bill Dundee & Mega Man def. The Singing Cowboys (Don Bass & Big Nasty Bill) by countout.
RassleNotes: Crowd was in the 175 range with a gate close to $1,750. Several young fans in attendance were dressed up like the Posse. Show had a good, “old school,” feel to it. Eric Wayne was originally scheduled to face Chris Rocker for the TV Title, but Rocker was not in Savannah. The referee was going to award the belt to Eric, but his father Ken Wayne suggested that the title be decided in an actual match, thus the bout with Kid Nickels. The Singing Cowboys did an angle where they “sang” a song recorded by local radio personality Ray Austin. Austin came out and was eventually attacked until Dundee, Grady Watson and Mega Man made the save. Austin later served as guest referee in the main event. CWA will run a show Friday night at the National Guard Armory in Lawrenceburg, TN and will return to Selmer, TN Saturday night at the Jaycees Bfor “Super Clash II” featuring Buff Bagwell, Tracey Smothers, as well as a return tag match with the Singing Cowboys against Bill Dundee & Mega Man, a CWA TV Title match pitting new champion Eric Wayne against challenger Chris Rocker, a return Tag Team title match with Beau James & Super Destroyer defending against the Posse and all the other top CWA stars.
