Match observations:
USWA A NIGHT TO REMEMBER
October 16th, 1997
Tonight the USWA kicked off what is to be the stomping ground for the
stars of the future. A Night To Remember kicked off with a BANG!
The Nasty Boys Jerry Saggs and Brian Knobbs took on a young team of
The Headbangers Mosh and Thrasher. This was a match made in heaven
for these two teams because BOTH know what a BRAWL is all about! The
Headbangers held in as long as they could but no match for the more
experienced Nasty Boys. The Nasties get the win in the first match
EVER in USWA History.
The Luchadores coming out of the woodwork from all over the country,
tonight we would feature Super Calo vs Lizmark Jr. Both masked
wrestlers have been wrestling in the U.S. for about 6 months now and
tonight they went at it in a great high flying matchup. Lizmark Jr.
gets the win tonight over Super Calo.
Marty Jannetty would be facing one of ECW's talented wrestlers in Axl
Rotten. If anyone knows how to brawl it's Axl and Marty he is NOT a
brawling type. Marty would have to rely on his wrestling ability and
tonight he got past one of ECW's most hardcore guys, Axl Rotten!
Bringing back a tradition to the Mid South Randy Hales annonuced the
Texas Death match between PG-13 and The Rock N Roll Express. The match
was on and both teams were here for the fight! Ricky Morton had the
match won on a few occasions when knocking out Wolfie D but The young
guys would NOT GIVE UP without a fight. Wolfie would crack Ricky
Morton over the head with the Hubcap and would leave him laying in
the ring and PG-13 got the win.
Jim Powers and Paul Roma tonight went at it full force. The Young
Stallions explode tonight in the ring. These guys were a good tag
team at one time but that was in the past. Tonight they would turn it
up and a great show it was. Paul Roma would come out victorious and
would leave the ring with the win.
Too Cold Scorpio has made his way to the USWA and tonight he would
take on Ace Darling. Ace Darling and Too Cold have fought before in
NWA Territory but tonight they would go at it in the Mid South. Too
Cold gets the win over Ace Darling.
At this point Tommy Dreamer had his time out on the floor which
turned into something we were NOT prepared for Tommy Dreamer would
attack Brian Christopher and get him streachered out of the arena.
Brian Lee was left without an opponent until UNABOMB comes to the
ring. Unabomb told Brian Lee a battle of the big men would take place
RIGHT NOW and RIGHT HERE. Brian Lee never backs down to anyone
and he welcomed Unabomb to the ring. The match was on and these two
were going at it! Brian Lee tried the chokeslam many times but was
unable to get it on this HUGE young new superstar. Brian would get
the pin in an epic battle. The USWA seems a little small for these
two big guys hopefully we can bury this feud before it even starts!
It was time for our main event now and what a great battle we had as
the WWF's Terry Funk would take on The WCW's Randy Savage, we
documented the history between these guys before now it was time for
them to go at it, and go at it they did for over an HOUR! Finally
Terry would get the win after BURNING Savage with the Branding IRON!
This is the kind of brawl we are used to in the south and these guys
closed a good show.
It was truly a night to remember but now we head to the USWA Studio
when we will have our television show. Randy Hales has announced the
Main event for this weeks television will be between Tommy Dreamer and
Brian Christopher!

>> TNM BASEMENT INTERVIEW WITH JOE DENIS (JUNE 2000)
[Joe can be contacted at denisca@nbnet.nb.ca]
In this interview Joe stands for Joe
bAz stands for guess who :-)
bAz: First of all we'll talk about wrestling...How did you actually
first find out about professional wrestling, and who were your
favourite wrestlers?
Joe: I first found out about wrestling on t.v. with WWF Superstars and
Maple Leaf Wrestling(Canadian WWF Program). I guess it started a
little before WrestleMania V because that was the first pay-per-view
I ever saw. My favorite wrestlers back then were Hulk Hogan and The
Rockers especially Shawn Michaels.
bAz: What in your opinion is the best federation in the world?
Joe: The World Wrestling Federation has to be the greatest federation
of all to be because when I was groing up it was the only wrestling I
ever saw there saw never any NWA/WCW or any indys on t.v. where I
live so I had to watch the WWF and that's why I've always been on the
WWF's side of the line.
bAz: Now onto TNM matters...How did you first find out about TNM?
Joe: During the summer of 1996, I was just searching the net for
wrestling games on day, and I came to this page and it had two
Wrestling Simulators and one of them was TNM.
bAz: What version did you download?
Joe: The first version I downloaded was 6.2
bAz: What version did you first register?
Joe: I registered TNM7
bAz: What made TNM different from any wrestling simulators that you'd
seen?
Joe: I like the option in TNM more than the others, it has a nice feel
to it, and the visual aspect is good. I like to be able to book
everything, make cards, the interviews and all that. I also like the
ability to create extensive wrestlers not just one or two moves.
bAz: What do you think of the recently released Circuit Tweaker?
Joe: I've tried but I don't plan on buying it anytime soon, I use the
old circuit editor.
bAz: What do you think of Zeus?
Joe: Haven't tried it, don't want to try it.
bAz: What do you think of the FCA Cubed series of plugins?
Joe: I love it, it gives the oppertunity to create matches that you
can't have with the regular TNM7 options. And you have to believe I
like since that is what I do for my site, and when I make a match it
has to be better than any other FCA Cubed Match like doing the
matches, but I wish there was a way to save the finishes.
bAz: What do you think of the Interview Integrator?
Joe: It's good, I use it for all my stuff that happens backstage and
the promos in the ring. Before I had the interview Integrator I used
to do cards without any interviews or anything and now when I try to
do one without interviews it's just not the same thing.
bAz: What do you think is the best TNM7 plugin?
Joe: Either the FCA Cubed Matches or the Interview Integrator.
bAz: What would you like to see as the next TNM7 match plugin?
Joe: A Lumberjack Match would be great I think it's the only thing
missing from TNM.
bAz: Finally we come to the TNM Sites section..What TNM sites do you
frequent most often?
Joe: The official TNM page and WrestleDen because Maise has great
exports.
bAz: What made you want to create Joe's TNM Place?
Joe: Well I had seen some FCA Cubed Matches on the internet, and most
of them just sucked, they had like 2 spots and that was it so I said
to myself "I'm going to give the people what they want big FCA Cubed
matches with alot of spots" and that's what I do. I like doing the
FCA Cubed Matches so putting them on my site is simple.
bAz: What do you think of the sites that post exports of wrestlers who
haven't even wrestled? e.g. Midian, "Titan" a.k.a Paul Wight
Joe: I don't really care because most the wrestlers do the same moves
i.e.bodyslam, kicks, dropkicks, and most wrestlers have faught on the
indy seen. What's the big deal if someone makes them Mideon was Dennis
Knight so it doesn't change his fighting style, and Paul Wight was
The Giant and a name change doesn't change your style.
bAz: What do you think of the TNM Basement site and newsletter?
Joe: It's good, the newsletter is good it gives people a chance to
put their circuits in it so other people can get ideas from it and
thing like that.
bAz: And the last question for today...What do you hope to see in the
future for TNM and you?
Joe: For TNM, I don't know it can only get better. As for me you never
know one day maybe I'll have my own export for TNM, you never know!

P.S. I'll put the link for Joe's TNM Place on Friday. I seem to have
misplaced the link just now. I promise I'll get it for Friday
