-fast paced match with Kroffat relying on his martial arts background, while Gallahad used high impact moves along with brawling and cheating. Gallahad used the tag rope to choke Kroffat at one point, and exposed a turnbuckle and ran Kroffat's back into it at another point.

 

Chris Lyon shows up and Kroffat wisely leaves the ring. Lyon has Gallahad go down on one knee. He then takes out a dagger and nicks the forehead of Gallahad. He makes a cross with the blood on Gallahad's forehead before knighting him again with the dagger.

[end of first hour]

 

-the younger Silva acquited himself quite well in this match, controlling the middle portion. He even hit his wheelbarrow suplex finisher, but in a move he may regret for many years elected to pick up Snuka rather then pin him. He doled out some more punishment but got caught trying to go for a superplex and Snuka turned the match around.

 

Manny Silva attacked Jimmy Snuka nailing him from behind. He threw him shoulder first into the ringpost. He then took Snuka and put his head between the top and 2nd ropes and twisted them up, snagging Snuka's head between the ropes. He began to beat on the defenseless veteran. Robbie Royce and Ron Ritchie arrived on the scene to make the save but Silva managed to outbrawl both of them. He then flipped Snuka over, so his feet were dangling on the ring apron. Silva left the ring and pulled down on Snuka's feet, now strangling him. More RCW officials and wrestlers arrived and managed to get Silva to back off. Snuka fell to the ground and a doctor was called. Snuka was taken to the back on a stretcher.

 

Wrestling Summit 3, July 26, 1986 in Edmonton Alberta. Already signed will be the historic match between former WWWF champions Bob Backlund and Bruno Sammartino. Also now signed will be none other then the most controversial tag team in wrestling, Hawk & Animal, the Road Warriors, along with their manager Paul Ellering!!

 

-not much to say, a bloody brawl that could have gone either way. Both men bled.

 

Bob Backlund is interviewed in his home. He recounts his rise to the top in the WWWF. His controversial win over Superstar Billy Graham for the WWWF title when Graham had his foot over the bottom rope. Backlund reflects on the rise of Hulk Hogan to take his place and people saying that he is no longer in touch with what pro wrestling fans want from a performer. Finally Backlund is asked about his feelings over a story that was leaked that his predecessor Bruno Sammartino had said that while Backlund was good, he was better. Backlund says he doesn't know if Sammartino said it or not, and it doesn't matter to him. Backlund says he is proud of his time as WWWF champion, and proud to now be the RCW champion. He says all questions will be answered at Wrestling Summit 3 when he meets Bruno Sammartino one-on-one.

 

 

Bob Backlund (champion)  v  Mr. Saito

 

Saito started strong with body shots on Backlund followed by a side bearhug, and body scissors. Backlund battled back going after the tree trunk like legs of Saito, but unable to hurt him the Asian managed to kick Backlund off. Saito took the match outside the ring and used the ring apron to bash Backlund's ribs into. Back inside he went back to the bearhug, and then nailed a belly to belly suplex.

Backlund countered another suplex attempt with a fireman's carry into a slam. He turned Saito over into a Boston crab but with no foundation Saito was able to reach the ropes for a break. The Asian grabbed Backlund rammed his head off the turnbuckle and threw him outside the ring. Backlund made several attempts to get back into the ring only to be met by a Saito attack. Finally Backlund was able to pull Saito out of the ring where the two exchanged punches before Backlund sent Saito into the guardrail. He then caught the challenger with his atomic drop finisher. He rolled Saito back into the ring and was about to re-enter the ring himself when Prof.Toru Tanaka appeared from behind Backlund and drove him into the ring apron. He continued to kick away at the champ causing the disqualification.

-another squash match

 

Phillip Navarre is interviewed about his participation in the main event tonight. It will be Bob Backlund against Mr. Saito in a Towel Match. Saito will have Prof. Tanaka in his corner and Bob Backlund has chosen Navarre to be in his corner. The match can only end when the cornerman throws in the towel. Ron Strong reminds Navarre that it was Arnold Skaaland throwing in the towel on Bob Backlund against the Iron Shiek that cost Backlund the title. Navarre just says that it makes the honor bestowed upon him by his friend all that much greater. He says Backlund will slay this dragon from the East tonight.

Kid Gallahad comes into the ring where Navarre is being interviewed. He makes fun of Navarre talking and acting like he's from the Dark Ages. He challenges Navarre to a special Medieval match next week. Navarre is puzzled and asks for more details, but when Gallahad taunts him as being afraid Navarre has no choice but to accept the bizarre challenge.

 

Manny Silva comes out to the ring. He goes right after the announcer Ron Strong. He tells Strong to introduce him again, this time correctly as MAD DOG Manny Silva. Reluctantly and under physical threat Strong does just that.

Silva then reminds the fans on how he tried to strangle Jimmy Snuka in the ropes last week. He proudly states that Snuka will not be back in RCW. Silva then says that when you are the new dog in the yard, you need to show you are the toughest dog, so you have to sniff out the craziest, meanest dog and go right for the jugular. With that Silva calls out and challenges, Lumberjack Jos LeDuc.

 

-The two men meet outside the ring and start the match there. It goes in and out of the ring. LeDuc gives Silva a piledriver on the floor in front of a very lenient referee. It should have won the match but LeDuc wasted time going to the top rope for a double stomp, but Silva rolled out of the ring. After a short brawl the ref got bumped down and both men went looking for weapons. Silva got his a bit quicker and as LeDuc picked up the ringbell from the announce table he was ~waffled~ from behind by Silva using a steel chair.

 

-yep quick match for Disalvo. punch, punch, bodyslam, running clothesline, pin.

 

Ron Strong asks Steve Disalvo what he wants to accomplish in RCW. Disalvo just looks at him with disdain. He says nothing short of winnign the title and crippling Bob Backlund will be considered enough. Disalvo then says he understands another former Stampede lackey Dan Kroffat has been mouthing off about him. He tells Kroffat to bring it to the ring next week.

[The Longriders retain the RCW Tag Team Titles]

-what would look like the last shot at the tag titles that the Kiniski brothers would receive, they lost fairly cleanly to the riders. At one point Lisa Caress tripped up Wild Bill which gave Kelly the advantage. But instead of pressing the advantage Kelly objected once again to Nick and Lisa about their tactics. Seconds later Wild Bill would tag out to Scott Hogg who took control of the match for the tag champions. After the match Kelly, Nick, and Lisa argued amongst themselves over what happened but left the ring together.

[Ben Bassarab retains the RCW Television Title]

-Lyon showed none of his former scientific skill, nor any desire to win the title. He ignored all referee instructions and the only thing that kept the match going as long as it did was Bassarab holding control of most of it. As soon as he got the chance Lyon used a steel chair on Bassarab and got disqualified. Phillip Navarre and Dan Kroffat had to come out to make the save and drive away Chris Lyon.

 

Ben Bassarab is livid. He can barely speak so Navarre and Kroffat do a bit of venting for him before he is able to control himself enough to talk. He says that if Lyon doesn't want gold, if he wants blood instead, then thats fine. Bassarab says animals like Lyon need to be kept in a cage, so that's what he is proposing. Next week a cage match for the RCW TV title, Ben Bassarab against Chris Lyon. Bassarab says that Lyon will get a surprise because he has yet to see his fangs bared when backed into a corner.

v

Mr. Saito (challenger) (/w Prof. Toru Tanaka holding the towel)

 

Both men knew it would be a long haul in this match so they picked a bodypart and continued to work on it. Backlund worked over the shoulder of Saito, while Saito returned the favor by working over the suspect back of Backlund.

After early efforts to gain a victory went for not the action spilled outside. Tanaka interfered attacking Backlund from behind, but the stipulation to win is that the towel has to be thrown in by the cornerman so the match continued. Phillip Navarre though joined the fray to neutralize Tanaka.

Back inside Saito continued to work on Backlund's back, with a Boston crab. Backlund was shaking his head no, but wasnt looking too healty. Navarre though did not throw in the towel despite Tanaka urging him to do so. Finally Backlund managed a comeback and worked over Saito with a shoulderbreaker, and then put on the crossface chickenwing. Saito cried out in pain, and nodded his head at Tanaka, but his cornerman refused to throw in the towel. This pissed off Backlund who released Saito and went out of the ring to confront Tanaka. The diabolical Professor though attacked Backlund and then used the towel to choke him. Navarre came over again to neutralize Tanaka but the damage was done. Saito managed to control the match again but once more while in the Boston crab Backlund refused to submit. The champion made yet another comeback and locked in the crossface chickenwing once again. This time as Saito cried out and nodded his head, Tanaka reluctantly threw in the towel, and immediately turned around and left the ring area.

The tag champions say they have destroyed all their competitors in RCW. The Fabulous Ones, Jones & LeDuc, the Kiniski Brothers. Who's left? Later tonight there will be a match to determine new #1 contenders between Ron Ritchie & Robbie Royce and Great Gama & Jerry Morrow. The Riders call this a joke.

-very even match at first with Kroffat holding his own inside the ring. But when Disalvo turned up the heat and took the match to the floor he demolished Kroffat, dropping him neck first on the guardrail. Back inside it was just a formality.

 

Steve Disalvo says that should be enough to convince people around here that he is real. Disalvo says he should be the new #1 contender for Backlund's title, but if he is not then he will just have to continue to hurt people that don't need to be hurt.

-both teams put on a good show with the young underdog fan favorites getting past old school cheating from the wiley veterans to please the crowd. However, Ritchie & Royce are a new tag team and very green, so their chances against the Longriders are slim.

 

Ron Ritchie & Robbie Royce talk about how the Longriders might be over confident and how that might be their undoing. They will use speed and a hit and move attack against their bigger but slower opponents.

 

[end of first hour]

 

 

Phillip Navarre  v  Kid Gallahad

In probably the strangest match ever held in RCW history, both men wore helmets and were given padded quarterstaffs. A special referee was brought over from England to officiate the event.

Basically there were no rules, other then the competitors had to stay in the ring, if they left intentionally they lost the fall. The ropes did not grant a break, and a fall was scored when a wrestler's shoulders were pinned to the mat for a count of one.

 

It was obvious from the start that this was a set-up and that Gallahad was much more proficient in the quarter-staff. He battered and beat Navarre into the corner and then used the lower end of the staff to low-blow Navarre. Using the quarter-staff he hit a russian legsweep and pinned Navarre's shoulders for the one count.

 

A 30 second timeout was given between falls.

The second fall saw more of the same, but with Gallahad knocking the quarterstaff from the hands of Navarre. Forced to wrestle only without a weapon, Navarre actually seemed to do better. He countered a thrust by Gallahad with a monkey flip, taking the staff from Gallahad and chucking it out of the ring.

One on one they locked up roman-greco style, then Gallahad shot for a leg, but Navarre was quicker and got him into a front chancery. He picked him up and suplexed him to the mat, pinned his shoulders for the 1 count.

 

After the 30 second break, Gallahad managed to throw Navarre out of the ring. He insisted with the ref that should be a DQ on Navarre for leaving the ring but the ref would not allow it. They locked up again and once again Gallahad tried the same tactic with no luck. The two men fought over to the ropes where Gallahad used the top cable to choke Navarre without a break in site. He then climbed to the top turnbuckle for the Gallahad lance but Navarre recovered and slammed himself into the corner, knocking Gallahad down to the floor below.

Gallahad took his time re-entering the ring much to the displeasure of the special guest referee. He rocked Navarre with a right hand, and the two went at it with fists. Navarre bodyslammed Gallahad to the mat but when he went for the pin, Gallahad rolled him up, but before he could get his shoulders down Navarre countered his weight and almost pinned Gallahad. The two men broke it up, got to their feet. Navarre tried for a clothesline which Gallahad ducked, and tried to take Navarre down with a crucifix. But Navarre was too steady on his feet slamming on the breaks and then taking Gallahad backward with a Samoan drop, and made the one count on the shoulders.

Ben Bassarab (champion)  v  Chris Lyon

 

Instead of a common lock-up Lyon goes right to work with a rake of the eyes, followed by a chop to the throat. He then tosses Bassarab off the cage wall and then nails a backbody drop. Lyon climbs to the second buckle and as Bassarab stands up Lyon bulldogs him to the mat. He covers but a defiant Bassarab kicks out after a 1 count. Lyon wastes time trying to intimidate referee Buddy Lane.

This allows Bassarab to reverse a whip to the buckle, and then catch Lyon with a clothesline. He follows up with a front chancery into a takedown falling backward. He works a headscissors until Lyon can pop out of it and catch Bassarab with a stiff forearm shot to the head.

Lyon goes to a rudimentary attack of chokes, punches, and then works a sleeperhold that he keeps moving the forearm down into a choke position until checked on by Lane. With Bassarab lying on his side, Lyon then does a baseball slide kicking Bassarab's head against the steel cage. The challenger then bounces the champ's head off the cage twice before slingshotting him off the ropes. He covers but again only gets a 1 count.

Lyon takes the champ to the top for a superplex but Bassarab fights back and counters with a spectacular looking flying headscissors off the top buckle. Both men are down until the count of 6. They meet in the middle of the ring and exchange punches and kicks. Bassarab takes the challenger down with a hiptoss but Lyon reaches up and lowblows the champ. Lane buys the champ some time by getting in the way of the challenger with a stern warning. But Lyon is all over the champ and throws him head first again into the cage wall.

Ben Bassarab is busted wide open.

Lyon nails a DDT and makes the cover but only gets a 2 count. The challenger then drops a knee onto the champ from the top buckle but once again only gets a 2 count. Sporting his new crazy look with purple and red dyed hair Lyon looks all the maniac as he rakes the bloodied head of the champ across the steel cage wall. He then locks in the Boston crab, but its not the back of Bassarab that is hurting so the champ is able to reach the ropes.

Lyon continues to punish the champ for a couple minutes, and its finally turned around by Bassarab in a show of resilience with a fireman's carry into a slam. He buys some time with a couple kicks each time Lyon tries to get up. With his breath restored Bassarab nails a snap suplex, followed by a release German suplex. He then puts Lyon onto the top rope and while standing on the middle buckle tosses him to the mat. The champ is in control with a double underhook suplex and covers for a 2 count.

Lyon fights back with a lowblow. Again he receives a warning from Buddy Lane but no disqualification. Bassarab tries to send Lyon to the buckle after a punch, but Lyon reverses it and looks intentionally to have whipped Bassarab right into Lane. Lyon then nails his slingshot suplex on Bassarab and gets the 1, 2, 3, !!

But its his own hand counting because Buddy Lane is knocked out! Lyon in a fit of anger pulls off the covering of the top turnbuckle and then smashes Bassarab's head off of it. He covers and again would have got the 3 count but Lane is out cold.

Lyon just sits in the corner, his head in his hands as the fans boo him. He pauses for about 10 seconds until Lane starts to move, Bassarab still unmoving in the middle of the ring. Lyon climbs the side of the cage wall as if to escape. But he pauses half way up and takes the measure of Bassarab. But the champ is stirring and is back on his feet. Lyon is caught and begins to climb down, but Bassarab gets to him, so he changes course after kicking the champ in the chest, and begins to climb back up the cage wall. Bassarab climbs up after him, giving chase. Lyon tries to kick at the champ but can't connect and loses his grip, hanging there with only one hand hold. Bassarab grabs onto the leg of the challenger and pulls him off the cage wall. Both men fall to the mat, with Lyon a good 5 feet higher then Bassarab.

Both men are down, and Buddy Lane counts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, no movement, 6, 7, Bassarab begins to stir and Lane slows his count down, 8, 9, Bassarab is unable to get up but manages to drape a leg over Lyon.

Lane counts 1, 2, Bassarab lifts his own shoulder off the mat, 3 !!

Post-Match:

A bloodied but victorious Ben Bassarab is handed his title belt, but is too weak to even stand. Phillip Navarre and Dan Kroffat are on hand though entering the cage to help Bassarab make his way out of the cage.

-squash match

 

Kelly Kiniski talks about starting at the bottom again and working their way to the top of the tag teams to take another shot at the Longriders. However, Nick Kiniski is more impatient and he talks about Ron Ritchie and Robbie Royce not being qualified to lace the Kiniski boots, and should not be the #1 contenders. This kind of talk doesn't sit well with his brother Kelly but he allows his brother to have his say.

 

-Gama was outmatched in strength and he knew it. After a couple unsuccessful attempts to lock up, Gama spent the next couple minutes frustrating the fans, ref, and LeDuc in his efforts to avoid locking up with LeDuc. Finally the two ended up tangling on the floor. Once LeDuc returned to the ring Singh took out a pair of brass knux. As he re-entered the ring, LeDuc stuck his head between the ropes to grab him and Singh nailed him in the head with the brass knux. Back inside Gama pinned LeDuc, but despite being hit with the knux and having been busted open LeDuc managed to drape a foot on the bottom rope. So Singh covered LeDuc once again, this time though he also put his feet on the ropes for leverage unseen by the referee.

 

Ron Strong tried to interview Great Gama Singh but Jos LeDuc showed up and chased him away. Finally LeDuc returned to yell a few words into the mic and to challenge Singh for a rematch next week.

-squash match

 

Manny Silva threatened interviewer Ron Strong when Strong forgot to address him as "Mad Dog" Manny Silva. For some reason this brought back outmatched Scott Sherwood to the ring to try and stick up for Strong. Silva went ballistic on Sherwood and began to beat him down again. He then stuck his neck between the top and second ropes and then tried to choke him out, pulling down on his feet from the arena floor.

This brought out Brady Boone to make the save, as Boone attacked Silva from the side. While officials freed Sherwood Boone and Silva began a pier 6 brawl that included smashes into the announce table and hitting each other with steel chairs.

 

[end of first hour]

 

-rematch, pretty much the same result, Disalvo is just too big and strong for Kroffat to deal with

 

Strangler Steve Disalvo goes on again about how he is the #1 contender already for the Heavyweight title and how he doesn't want to have to hurt anymore innocent victims until Backlund gives him his title shot.

The crowd errupts as Bob Backlund himself comes to the ring dressed in street attire. Backlund says that he can't help but be impressed by Disalvo's success so far, but that he is not the #1 contender. Disalvo is mad and demands to know who has been more impressive then him. Backlund says that next week he will defend his Heavyweight title against the new #1 contender, one of his tag partners for tonight's big six man tag match main event, the RCW Television title holder, Ben Bassarab.

Disalvo calls Bassarab just another Stampede punk like Kroffat, and says that he will bide his time for a bit longer but if Backlund doesn't put up the title defense soon then he will come and take it from his crippled hands.

 

[The Longriders retain the RCW Tag Team Titles]

-despite the odds the challengers managed to hang in there for 8 minutes with the stronger more experienced champions. They did exactly what they said they were going to do, hit and move, and use their speed advantage. They had problems though whenever they had to fight the champs two-on-two so couldn't maintain any advantage long enough.

Half way through the match Nick Kiniski and Lisa Caress came down to ringside to watch the match. Nick had words with both teams in the next couple of minutes. Then Kelly Kiniski came down to try and get Nick and Lisa to leave with him for the back, but they refused. Finally the 'riders came over together and began to push and shove with the Kiniski brothers. Finally it came to blows and when Royce and Ritchie came over and got involved in what was now a six man brawl, referee Kenny Jay threw the match out.

 

The Longriders are interviewed. They say they want to prove that they are the undisputed tag champions so they welcome a chance to beat up on Royce and Ritchie again next week in a re-match. They warn the Kiniski Brothers though to stay out of their affairs. Wild Bill says that they beat the Kiniski Brothers and they just can't accept the fact that they are not nearly the wrestlers that their old man was.

 

-the good guys were very impressive in this bout working well together as a team. On the other side his partners began to get aggitated by Chris Lyon who refused to heed the referee's warnings, and didn't want to tag out at all. Finally Mr. Saito had enough and left leaving his side short handed. That was all the break the fan favorites needed to put this match away.

 

That's it for another edition of River City Wrestling.
