Don't forget to make your prediction for our next show that eminates from the Omni in Atlanta, Georgia.

Scheduled for the card:

-- (Dark Match) Steve Armstrong vs Tracey Smothers
These two are still in the tryout phase for a contract with NWA Squared Circle Wrestling.  Against each other they have two 20 minute time limit draws and a double countout.  They each also have 1 loss to Jerry "The King" Lawler in tryout matches this week.  Who will win, and will either man earn a contract?

-- Brad Armstrong vs Terry Taylor
Armstrong won the very first match on NWA Squared Circle Television.  Taylor has one win on television as well.  Against each other on house shows they have been almost even in the ring.  Which man will be elevated up the card after this match?

-- The Midnight Express vs The Steiner Brothers
These two teams have been feuding for the last two weeks and have been almost equals in the ring.  The Steiners as of late have been interjecting themselves in the business of Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard, while the Midnight Express has been keeping a close eye on the NWA World Tag Team Champion Road Warriors.  Which team will take the win in Atlanta?

-- NWA World Television Title Match:
Champion The Great Muta vs Sting
These two have had two televised matches for the NWA Television Title that have ended in a time limit draw and a double countout respectively.  Their non-title matches have been split almost equally between them.  Will there be a new NWA World Television Champion or will The Great Muta retain?

-- NWA United States Title Match:
Champion Lex Luger vs Dusty Rhodes
Luger has been extremely dominant over The American Dream for two straight weeks, with Rhodes' only win coming against Paul Roma on television two weeks ago.  Can Rhodes pull off what would be considered an upset over Luger?

-- NWA World Tag Team Titles Match:
Champions The Road Warriors vs Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard
The Road Warriors won every house show match they were in during the first week and ended the week with the fastest match in NWA television history.  During the second week, however, Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard earned several wins thanks to the interference of The Steiner Brothers.  Will the mighty Road Warriors retain their Tag Team Titles?

-- NWA World Heavyweight Title Match:
Champion Ric Flair vs Ricky Steamboat
Seven 60 minute time limit draws and 7 knockout wins for Flair over Steamboat thanks to JJ Dillon.  And because of this, the NWA has just added the stipulation that JJ Dillon will be barred from ringside for the match in the Omni!  Steamboat holds a televised win over Paul Roma.  And Steamboat and Flair had a classic confrontation during an interview segment this past Saturday.  Can Flair continue to have a stranglehold on the NWA World Heavyweight Title or will Steamboat finally "grab the brass ring" as he put it during a recent interview?


Note:  I already have the card booked, so I know who will be winning with the exception of one match.  How many can you get correct?  :)  Good luck.

-- Steve Armstrong vs Tracey Smothers

I'm pulling for Steve..

-- Brad Armstrong vs Terry Taylor

The Candyman's paycheck will get sweeter at the expense of the original "chicken boy". Armstrong agani for the win.

-- The Midnight Express vs The Steiner Brothers

The Midnight Express will win.

-- NWA Television Title Match:
Champion The Great Muta vs Sting


Muta gets a cheap win.. Green, maybe red mist.

-- NWA United States Title Match:
Champion Lex Luger vs Dusty Rhodes


Damn I hope Dusty scores the upset. But Luger will probably win.

-- NWA World Tag Team Titles Match:
Champions The Road Warriors vs Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard


The Road Warriors will win and go on to feud with the Midnight Express.

-- NWA World Heavyweight Title Match:
Champion Ric Flair vs Ricky Steamboat


I have a feeling Flair will win. He's a great champion and Steamboat is a great challenger, not vice versa.

Tracey Smothers will send SA packing.  Armstrong Curse, bay-bee.

Terry Taylor hits the superplex for the win.  Taylor rules.  Armstrong Curse, bay-bee.

The Steiners have been very rude lately in sticking their nose into the business of the Four Horsemen, which I can't imagine will sit well with Dillon't crew.  I suspect some kind of DQ in this match.  Steiners by DQ, I guess.

Sting probably is next in line for Flair, so I can't give him the win here.  Muta with the mist and a pin.

I see no reason why the domination should end now.  Dusty is better as a challenger than as a champion, something he forgot a few times over the years.

It's not time for the Road Warriors to lose yet, though that no-show a few cards back is suspicious.  Road Warriors retain and move onto the Midnight Express.

Flair retains here.  Come on.  For some reason, even though he's not in your circuit, I think Barry Windham will interfere.  I realize that makes no sense, but it would be pretty cool.
