Match observations:


What a night of incredible action. Just when you think a big name
is going to win, we get a huge suprise!

The Warlord is the 1991 Zero Hour Tournament Winner!

Hats off to The Warlord as he beat some big names:

Hayabusa, Undertaker, Sabu, and Jushin Liger

Whats in store for the Warlord?

Fans thank you very much for letting us hold a one night
single elimination tournament to find out who the best
wrestler in IWA of 1991 is... And that man is..


THE WARLORD!!!

Here are some circut notes for IWA after Zero Hour:

06/1991

The Barbarian and The Warlord both resign a 24 card contract deal!

Spellbinder has quit effective immidietly!!!

hee hee, looks like Spellbinder is a good magician after all... well, he did make himself dissapear.  ;)

Smash no-showed, but that may have been for the better as Jericho & Austin pulled 4 stars.  Too bad both Steiners didn't make it to the point where they'd face eacother.  That would have created some action. :)  Kidna surprised Warlord beat the Undertaker... kinda surprised that Warlord beat Sabu... kinda surprised that Warlord beat Liger... kinda surprised that... oh... sorry :D

I think Warlord has just set himself up for a title shot, but what will the Barbarian say to his partner's newly found glory?

Ahhh, not the Warlord? I'd have prefered the Barbarian to take it personally, but oh well, I guess the challenge now is for you to turn the Warlord into a star. Still, looks like on match ratings, Jericho was the MVP of the tournament being in the two best matches, and Liger beating him surely sets him up for a future title shot.
