June 11, 1983 River City Wrestling #102
Winnipeg Convention Cente, Winnipeg, MB
We are welcomed by the hosts Ron Strong & Mike Stone.
Tonight we have a tag team extravaganza, with four tag team matches scheduled for the show. The main
event will feature the fallout from last week's main event, as RCW champion The Destroyer teams up with Ray Stevens, to take
on the duo of Greg Valentine and Pat Patterson. If Patterson and Valentine win that match then Valentine will be granted another
title shot at the Destroyer.
Opening Bout:
Women's Tag Team Match
Jeannie Rahib & Tanya Tataryn v Tawney & Corrie England
The RCW Women's champ Rahib was a house of fire in this match, but Tataryn was at times a weak link.
However, Tataryn managed to survive after playing Ricky Morton for a couple minutes and get the hot tag to Rahib who proceeded
to clean house. Just after she nailed Corrie with a spinebuster, and with Tawney knocked out of the ring, she went for the
pin. But before she could get the pin a newcomer entered the ring and pulled her off by the hair. The newcomer had already
pulled Tataryn off the ringapron and tossed her into the guardrail. She now nailed Rahib witha swinging neckbreaker.
Jeannie Rahib & Tanya Tataryn defeated the England Sisters by disqualification for outside interference
at 6:24.
Post-Match: The newcomer left the ring area and went to grab the mic from the announce
table. She announced that she was Judy Martin, a real professional wrestler of the top caliber, not like these third string hacks RCW has been presenting. She says
she is here to take the belt away from Rahib, and that she vows it will take less then a month.

Post-Match: Kerry Brown was helped to his feet by his tag team partner for tonight Buddy Lane. Brown was mad though, asking Lane where he was and why he hadn't helped him. Lane indicated that he was stuck in the corner waiting the tag. As Lane climbed through the ropes to leave, Brown heaved up on the middle rope, crotching Lane. Brown then dragged him back into the ring and proceded to beat the tar out of him until he was rescued by RCW officials.
Pre-Match:
RCW matchmaker Marty Goldstein comes to the ring. He calls out Chris Lyon and Mike Valiant. While
they both come down to the ring to a chorus of boos, the two former friends can barely stand to look at each other. That point
is not lost to Goldstein, however he asks them to put aside their differences for a bit. He says that the current tag champions
the Roughnecks (the fans cheer) do not have a very long list of potential opponents at this time. Goldstein says that because
Lyon vacated the belts, they never lost them, and if they were willing to give it another try he would grant them a title
shot tonight. Valiant is the first to say to Goldstein that he'll do it if Lyon does, to which Lyon just nods. Goldstein wishes
them well.
