Tonight, In This Very Ring: A Collection of Wrestling Timelines

[Megafighter3]

WrestleMania VII​

A solid 20,000 fill the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on the promise of one match, Randy Savage vs. The Ultimate Warrior for the WWF Title with the loser being forced into retirement. As the Warrior experiment failed to catch on the way Vince had hoped, he decided to pull the plug and instead make the Macho Man a two-time WWF World Champion, ending the Warrior's career after five consecutive elbow drops. Tonight was also a record night for Savage as he not only became a two-time WWF Champion, becoming the second man to do so after Bruno Sammartino (if we don't count all that Backlund-Inoki stuff that happened) but also his fourth WrestleMania main event, putting him above Hulk Hogan at two and Paul Orndorff at three. Along with the main event, viewers at the Coliseum saw Ted DiBiase's manservant Virgil break free from the Million Dollar Man, being rechristened "Soul Train" Mike Jones in the process, Mr. Perfect defeat Ricky Steamboat to retain his Intercontinental title, The Rockers defeat the Hart Foundation for the tag titles, The Road Warriors meet Demolition and the British Bulldog defeat the jingoistic heel Sgt. Slaughter in the start of his solo run.

The NWA? Eh, they're doing alright. Paul Orndorff joined the Four Horsemen and was part of good WarGames match at WrestleWar. Of course, people are really not liking Jim Herd over there. Especially not Flair. I gotta feeling something's gonna come out of that.

ONLY 20k in the LA Coliseum?

 

[Ry Guy]

ONLY 20k in the LA Coliseum?

At least it’s better than OTL’s 16,158.

 

[Megafighter3]

At least it’s better than OTL’s 16,158.

Plus, they at least got to use the Coliseum, even if the arena looked a bit empty. Good news is security wasn't an issue.

 

[TennesseeDave]

On July 6th 1985 a big crowd of 27,000 showed up at the American Legion Memorial Stadium in Charlotte,North Carolina for the Great American Bash.

SummerSlam 1991

Venue: Madison Square Garden
Attendance: 20,000
Announce Team: Gorilla Monsoon/Bobby Heenan/Roddy Piper​

(Dark: Koko B. Ware d. Kato)

The British Bulldog d. Power and Glory in a Handicap Match

Oh hey, a card! Rare for this TL, I know, but I figured this one could be fun. We start off with the Bulldog beating two dudes on his one, showing off just how powerful he is. Running Powerslam to Paul Roma finishes this one.

Bret Hart d. Mr. Perfect (c) (w/Coach) for the WWF Intercontinental Championship
The Natural Disasters (w/Jimmy Hart) d. The Bushwhackers
"Soul Train" Mike Jones d. Ted DiBiase (c) (w/Irwin R. Schyster) for the Million Dollar Championship
Big Boss Man (w/Sgt. Slaughter) d. The Mountie (w/Jimmy Hart) in a Jailhouse Match

Whole lotta OTL matches, maybe lose Andre from being in the Bushwhackers' corner. Have Rotunda back DiBiase and Slaughter behind Boss Man. All good so far.

The Road Warriors d. The Rockers (c) for the WWF Tag Team Championship

There we go! How about some Warriors vs. Rockers for ya? Poor Marty takes the Doomsday Device here.

Ric Flair (c) (w/Bobby Heenan) d. Ricky Steamboat for the NWA World Championship

And in a match you thought you wouldn't see ITTL, we have Flair/Steamboat putting on a classic, though it is only around 12 minutes. Had to shave a bit off Bulldog vs. P&G to get it there and knock off Valentine vs. IRS. But hey, Flair defends the "Real World Title" over on WWF's PPV, a big black eye for WCW, who had fired him over refusing to put over Lex Luger for the belt and putting on the terrible Great American Bash show just last month. Flair keeps with the Figure Four.

Randy Savage (c) d. Kerry Von Erich in a No Holds Barred Match for the WWF World Championship

We didn't get a Kerry that could still go as well as in his World Class heyday, but we make up for that by just having this match have a bit of plunder. Let the two just brawl for a while before ending it with the elbow drop. Now, try as Vince might and it has shown to work for a bit, the crowd still wants to cheer Savage and with Flair in the company, there's a big match to build up to, so we can expect that the Macho Man will be face again.

The 1992 Royal Rumble​

#1: The British Bulldog
#2: Ted DiBiase

Doing the Rumble this year, finally. And just the Rumble, rest of the card is OTL. Due to shenanigans at their live Tuesday in Texas event, Savage is stripped of his WWF title, which is put up as the prize for winning the Royal Rumble Match We start off with the Bulldog and the Million Dollar Man

#3: Ric Flair

WHOO! Flair coming in with the chops, baby!

#4: Jerry Sags

Sags charges in, and he's the first one out (30, Sags)

#5: Haku

Haku starts adding onto the pounding the Bulldog is getting here. Davey Boy's running face here, fighting against the odds.

#6: Shawn Michaels

And here comes Shawn, having broken up with that coward Marty Jannetty, who jumped through a barber shop window. He goes after Bulldog as well.

#7: Tito Santana

Arriba! Tito starts going for Shawn while Bulldog manages to send out Haku (29, Haku)

#8: The Barbarian

Barbarian charges in to replace Haku.

#9: Kerry Von Erich

Thankfully, Bulldog now has Kerry to help him, taking on DiBiase and Flair while Bulldog fights off the Barbarian. Shawn and Tito keep things going on their end before Bulldog sends out the Barbarian (28, Barbarian)

#10: Smash

No, he's not a repo man. He's still Smash of Demolition and he's coming for the Bulldog.

#11: Greg Valentine

Valentine comes in, joins in one the beating of the Von Erich, but actually gets sent out (27, Valentine) while Bulldog tosses out Smash (26, Smash)

#12: Nikolai Volkoff

And here comes Volkoff to be fed to the Bulldog as well. Bulldog racking up a lot of eliminations tonight! (25, Volkoff) Meanwhile, Kerry gets sent out too by the combination of Flair and DiBiase (24, Von Erich)

#13: Big Boss Man

Boss Man here to give Davey Boy some hard times!

Piper comes in for the save, taking on DiBiase and Flair on his own. Bulldog continues his run of eliminations by sending out Hercules (21, Hercules)

#16: Jake Roberts

Damien guides Jake to face off against Piper. The faces are gonna need some help.

#17: Jim Duggan

HOOOOOOOOOOOO! Hacksaw charges in and Bobby Heenan is livid as he makes motions for Flair. Duggan instead goes for DiBiase, leaving Flair and Roberts to match up with Piper before Bulldog tosses out Boss Man (20, Boss Man) and peels Flair off. Currently we've got Roberts/Piper, DiBiase/Duggan and Flair/Bulldog. Nice little set of matches going on.

#18: Irwin R. Schyster

IRS comes in to make the save as Duggan was about to send out the Million Dollar Man. Instead, Rotunda takes the elimination here (19, IRS)

#19: Jimmy Snuka

And here comes a rare appearance by the Superfly, who I mainly just replaced in cards with Steamboat. Instead, he's here as the Phenom (in place of that Dice Morgan guy in Japan) and he comes to help out former enemy Piper deal with Roberts while Flair manages to toss out the Bulldog (18, Bulldog)

#20: Bret Hart

And in place of the Deadman, we have the Hitman. He and Flair square up here, making for a good sequence while DiBiase takes out Duggan (17, Duggan) and Roberts sends Snuka out (16, Snuka)

#21: Randy Savage

OOOOH YEAH~ Former two-time World Champion Randy "Macho Man" Savage coming into the ring as we reach the third leg of the Rumble! He helps Piper fight Roberts and Bret fight Flair before going right for DiBiase!

#22: The Berzerker

The Berzerker charges for Savage and he's out! (15, Berzerker)

#23: "Soul Train" Mike Jones

Sorry, buddy. I got you out of the gimmick to give you this spot. It starts with Piper suddenly putting him in a sleeper while in a frenzy fight Roberts. As soon as Piper realizes the mistake and lets go, DiBiase jumps in with a Million Dollar Dream before throwing him to Jake for the DDT. Bret and Ric stop fighting to give him a Sharpshooter and Figure Four, arguing over who has the better hold while Savage goes up, hits the elbow and DiBiase tosses his former manservant out (14, Jones)

#24: The Iron Sheik

We don't get Sheikie Bubbah for long as Savage sends him out as well. We never did the Iraqi sympathizer Sgt. Slaughter, so it's just the Iron Sheik (13, Sheik)

#25: Rick Martel

Martel runs for Savage, being an upstart wanting to prove himself against a former champ. He doesn't last long because here comes...

#26: Ricky Steamboat

The Dragon runs in to save Savage, fighting off Martel. It's here things start to thin out as Flair sends out Bret (12, Hart) Macho Man takes out DiBIase (11, DiBiase) the Snake sends out the Rowdy One (10, Piper) and Ricky gets some help from Savage to dump out Martel (9, Martel)

#27: Skinner

Yeah, you can just get out now (8, Skinner)

Sid makes his way here and makes an impression by tossing out Steamboat (6, Steamboat) while Savage sends out DiBiase (5, DiBiase)

#30: The Warlord

Sid makes short work of him (4, The Warlord) before Savage surprises him and dumps Sid out (3, Sid)

Now, it comes down to this. Flair vs. Savage. Just the way you want it. Except, no. Sid comes back in and tosses Savage out (2, Savage) leaving Ric Flair to win the 1992 Royal Rumble and the WWF World Heavyweight Championship. Whoo~

 

[Megafighter3]

WrestleMania VIII​

62,000 load up the Hoosier Dome to see a dream match, the Macho Man vs. the Nature Boy. For all intents and purposes, this was WWF vs. NWA happening before their eyes. The match went thirty minutes, scripted by Savage and then executed impressively by both men (though Flair was fined after the match for blading) with Sid Vicious aiding Flair on the outside for added tension. Soon, Savage was able to overcome the odds, hit the elbow and become a three-time WWF World Heavyweight Champion, a record not seen in WWF history. Along with that, the card featured Owen Hart scoring a win over the departing Jake Roberts. Shawn Michaels beating Tito Santana. Money Inc. keeping their tag titles against the Natural Disasters after Kama, Ted's newest acquisition, clocked Earthquake with a chain-wrapped fist to knock him out and Bret Hart reclaiming the Intercontinental title over Roddy Piper.

Over in WCW, they managed to spring back from the GAB controversy with Sting winning the WCW title over Lex Luger, who was looking to depart for the WWF. And while they removed controversial head Jim Herd, he would be replaced by "Cowboy" Bill Watts. Watts, formerly of Mid-South Wrestling/UWF, was an old school mind and his way of running things very much was like he hadn't left Mid-South; banning top rope moves, removing the protective mats outside the ring and making the wrestlers land on concrete floors among many others. WCW had been losing footing under Herd and Watts only seemed to make things worst after their initial run of fighting back against the WWF, who had begun something of a turnaround.

 

[Megafighter3]

SummerSlam 1992​

100,000+ in Wembley Stadium in a rare showing as the main event is not Savage/Flair II for the World Title, but Bret Hart and the British Bulldog for the Intercontinental Title. The match is the same as OTL, helluva match from bret, carrying a very not there Bulldog to a huge victory. Right below it, Ric Flair won the WWF World Heavyweight Title, beating Savage in the Figure Four. The Road Warriors make their departure from the WWF on this PPV, losing to Money Inc in a match for the tag team titles while Kama wrecked "Soul Train" Mike Jones and Demolition finally exploded with Crush defeating Smash. Along with that was the Natural Disasters beating the Beverly Brothers and Shawn Michaels going to a double count-out with Rick Martel.

Over in WCW, they had their Great American Bash show last month, mostly comprised of a tournament for the NWA Tag Titles, but also featuring Vader demolishing Sting to claim the WCW World Championship because it's time. Oh, it's Vader Time.

 

[Megafighter3]

Survivor Series 1992​

Vince is feeling his massive grapefruits again, boys! Finally, after putting the plan on ice back in 1987, Vince has given us the Thanksgiving tradition of the Survivor Series! While the first ever Survivor Series match itself (Natural Disasters and the Nasty Boys vs. Money Inc. and the Beverly Brothers) wasn't anything to write home about, this still was a really good card, featuring the arrival of the Headshrinkers and Yokozuna, who demolished the team of Koko B. Ware/Kamala and Owen Hart in respective tag and singles bouts. Along with that, Big Bossman put away the unhinged criminal Nailz in a Nightstick on a Pole Match and uh....

OH! Oh yeah! The big two matches, the ones everyone remembers from this show! First off, you have the tag team match of Randy Savage and Mr. Perfect vs. Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon. The match is considered a four-star classic with both teams playing off each other well, and a 1992 match of the year candidate. The other match? Bret Hart vs. Ric Flair for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship. An excellent match between two ring generals, going almost twenty-seven minutes and ending with Bret reversing the Figure-Four into a Sharpshooter to win not only his first WWF World Title, but become a Triple Crown Champion and begin the true turn of the 90s, a move made all the more necessary as five years after it ended, Hulk Hogan published a tell-all book about his time in wrestling that opened up some trouble for Vince and the WWF.

What did Starrcade have to offer? Well, there was BattleBowl II, their weird battle royal where wrestlers who won matches that night wrestled again and... WCW World Champion Ron Simmons. Yeah, Starrcade got its ass kicked hard that night as the WWF brought the better show overall, finally knocking Starrcade from its spot as a November PPV while the WWF secured the top spot it began to lose in the late 80s.

 

[Ry Guy]

The pendulum is starting to turn.

 

[Megafighter3]

The 1993 Royal Rumble​

It's 1993. The WWF has launched Monday Night RAW on USA and Bret has just defended the World Title against Razor Ramon and Shawn Michaels kept the IC title against Marty Jannetty. It's Rumble Time!

#1: Ric Flair
#2: Bob Backlund

Two former WWF World Champions and two talented wrestlers to start things off.

#3: Kama

And here comes Ted DiBiase's personal enforcer, getting in a few shots before Flair throws him out (30, Kama)

#4: Ted DiBiase

And here comes Ted to make this a three-way.

#5: Brian Knobbs

Knobbs doesn't make it long as DiBiase sends him out after a minutes (29, Knobbs)

#6: "Soul Train" Mike Jones

And DiBiase gets his payback on his former manservant, sending him out as well (28, Jones)

#7: Jerry Lawler

And here comes the King of Memphis! He comes in to make the fight for Backlund even harder.

#8: Max Moon

¡Oye chicos! Es Konnan! (¡HURRA!) Yep, instead of the overdesigned nightmare that was the Max Moon costume, we instead go for a much simpler costume to get Konnan to run the gimmick. We gotta get him on a a really good deal to get him to go between here and Mexico given how big lucha is getting but damn it! Let's grab some of that sweet lucha pie here! Moon brings some solid speed and athleticism to the Rumble here, getting the crowd going

#9: Genichiro Tenryu

And let's have some Japanese style in there too! New Generation! We got quite the mix here of Backlund's amateur flavor, Tenryu's puroresu, Moon's lucha flying and the various blends of southern from Flair, Lawler and DiBiase.

#10: Mr. Perfect

Perfect charges right for Flair, since things ended badly for them while Backlund meets off against Tenyru and DiBiase is left working with Max Moon.

#11: Skinner

And here comes the gator man! We start with a Million Dollar Dream from DiBiase, then a powerbomb from Tenryu. As Skinner gets up, he takes a Perfectplex, leaving him prone for a combination Chickenwing and Figure Four while Lawler goes up. Lawler pulls down the strap, hits the flying fist drop and tosses him to Moon, who jumps up and ranas Skinner out (27, Skinner)

#12: Koko B. Ware

Bird! Bird! Bird! Lawler goes right for Koko, knocking him around for a bit before dumping him out (26, Ware)

#13: Samu

Samu throws his big self around, knocking down everybody before fighting and sending out Tenryu (25, Tenryu)

#14: The Berzerker

Here comes the big stupid viking guy, going for Samu for now while Lawler and Backlund duke it out.

#15: Paul Diamond

Another ex-Michaels tag partner! And also, he was... Kato of the Midnight Express! Also, he was in Worse Badd Company. Anyway, let's just keep rolling here as Diamond joins the midcard scuffle going on, DiBiase manages to send out Max Moon (24, Moon)

#16: Terry Taylor

Oh good, it's that ol' Rooster. Terry goes after DiBiase while Lawler tosses out Backlund (23, Backlund) and Perfect dumps Flair (22, Flair)

#17: Damien Demento

Demento joins the midcard scuffle, Perfect and Lawler going at it.

#18: Irwin R. Schyster

IRS and DiBiase come together to send out Terry (21, Taylor) before going for Hennig.

#19: Tatanka

Tatanka, being a babyface, runs in to help Perfect out.

#20: Jerry Sags

Sages gets in one the mass of midcarders fighting. Gonna need to clear that out a bit...

#21: Typhoon

There we go. Typhoon tosses out Paul Diamond (20, Diamond), Damien Demento (19, Demento) Jerry Sags (18, Sags) and the Berzerker (17, Berzerker) leaving only Samu to fight.

#22: Fatu

Here comes Fatu to help out his partner.

#23: Earthquake

And evening up the Disasters/Headshrinkers fight comes Earthquake.

#24: Carlos Colon

Colon goes for Lawler, allowing Tatanka to toss out IRS (16, IRS) before being sent out by DiBiase (15, Tatanka)

#25: Tito Santana

Santana comes in with all his babyface fire, but he's soon joined by an old friend.

#26: Rick Martel

Martel goes right for Tito as we got the following fights in the ring: Perfect/DiBiase, Lawler/Colon, Headshrinkers/Disasters and Tito/Martel.

#27: Yokozuna

Oh man. Here he comes to make some changes. He sends out Tito (14, Santana), tosses out Typhoon (13, Typhoon) but that doesn't stop Earthquake from sending out Samu (12, Samu) but Yoko helps send Carlos out (11, Colon) before Perfect makes a surprise elimination to the King (10, Lawler)

#28: Owen Hart

Owen goes after Martel while Perfect and DiBiase keep things up and we get Earthquake fights two-on-one against Samu and Yokozuna.

#29: Smash

Smash comes in to help Earthquake, the two sending out Fatu (9, Fatu) only for Yoko to toss out Smash (8, Smash) followed by Quake (7, Earthquake)

Meanwhile, Owen tosses out Martel (6, Martel) and DiBiase tosses out Perfect (5, Mr. Perfect) leaving only him, Owen and Yokozuna.

#30: Randy Savage

Oooooh yeah~ Macho Madness hitting at #30! Final Four are DiBiase, Owen, Yoko and Savage!

DiBiase is the first to go, sent out by Owen (4, DiBiase) with poor Owen getting sent out by the big Samoan (3, Hart) with Yoko and Randy ending things here. However, rather than go for a pin, Savage fights from underneath and manages to hoist Yokozuna out with a bodyslam (2, Yokozuna)

Randy Savage has won the Royal Rumble! Randy Savage will be guaranteed a shot at Bret Hart's title for WrestleMania IX! Macho Madness is going wild at the Rumble!

 

[Voice of The Empire]

And here comes Hogan to burn down the village in order to save it.

Just give me Bret vs. Curt for the title, please!!

Also the lack of Max Moon jetpacking into the ring tears my soul apart.

Oh, Hogan's gonna burn the village... just not from in a ring.

WrestleMania IX

Venue: Caesar's Palace in Paradise, Nevada
Attendance: 25,000
Announce Team: Jim Ross/Bobby Heenan​

The Headshrinkers (w/Afa) d. Tito Santana/Brutus Beefcake

We throw two midcard babyfaces together to get wrecked by the Headshrinkers to start off the show. Bob Backlund storms the ring about how even with age, he's still just as good as any clown in the WWF, which brings out Doink.

Bob Backlund d. Doink the Clown

Have a little comedy here with Backlund taking a water lapel before putting Doink away in the Chickenwing. Keep it short.

Yokozuna (w/Afa) d. Tatanka

We feed Tatanka's undefeated streak to Yoko here. Bansai drop does it here.

Razor Ramon d. Crush

And we also feed Crush to Razor here. Talk about some real demolition here, Chico. Tonight, Crush, Razor gonna crush you. Razor's Edge does it here as we showcase the better parts of the New Generation tonight.

Owen Hart d. Jerry Lawler

I noticed I had seven matches on the card, so I'm throwing Owen a bone here since we're wrapping this up. Owen and Lawler have a young boy vs. veteran feud going here and Owen wins with victory roll when Lawler teases the piledriver.

The Steiner Brothers d. Money Inc. (Ted DiBiase/Irwin R. Schyster) (c) (w/Kama) for the WWF Tag Team Championship

The Steiners toss IRS around, toss Kama around, toss Ted around. Suplexes all over before a Steinerline to IRS wins them the straps.

Shawn Michaels (c) d. Mr. Perfect for the WWF Intercontinental Championship

New Generation keeps running as Shawn and Perfect meet here. Hennig had sent Flair out of the company and looks to do the same with Shawn, but his back has been pretty much shot and HBK pretty much controls the match. Wins with Sweet Chin Music.

Bret Hart (c) d. Randy Savage (w/Miss Elizabeth) for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship

And the pendulum swings in full with Bret and Savage putting on the best match they can for the crowd in Caesar's Palace. Give them twenty-five minutes to work here, ending it with the Sharpshooter, Randy giving up and the two shaking hands as Randy puts the belt on Bret, passing the torch for good.

Now, you may have noticed someone missing: Lex Luger. See, I mentioned that Hogan wrote a tell-all book. In that book, he brought up the drug culture of wrestling and in particular, WWF's trafficking of steroids. Dr. Zahorian was mentioned quite a few times. With this, the trial goes worse for Vince, though he had the good sense to talk Ric Flair into taking up the booking spot so Vince could step down. The trial ended with Vince's indictment and wrestlign companies having to enforce strict anti-drug policies to survive the wave of investigations to follow. Plans to bring in Luger were dropped and Lex headed for Japan, ICOPRO was dropped, the WBF folded, but the WWF survives, though is now fighting the uphill battle of the New Generation.

WCW? Doin' alright, Sting and Vader main evented SuperBrawl III in a White Castle of Feat Strap Match. They're looking to replace Bill Watts with someone else, some commentary guy by the name of Eric Bischoff...

But this is where we step off the TL. The way I figure, this was the last time Hogan made much of a presence in WWF, so I figured it would be a fitting end to the tale of how one accident changed the landscape of wrestling for the 80s and 90s. Sure, there's WCW to talk about, but for now I'm satisfied with this.... Ah, what the hell? One more update after this.

[Voice of The Empire]

That sounds like Hogan. With the money drying up, his fame cut short so he's probably closer to Bruno level of famous on the national stage then in otl, Linda probably divorcing him earlier and having to carry his horrible kids, the book sales are super important. And hes probably super bitter. Like superstar level bitter.

Plus he never really had much hope in Hollywood. Studios just never really took to the Hulkster. I think all his movies were butterflied away.

Thats the real tragedy of the timeline, no suburban commando!

 

[TheMatthew25]

Thats the real tragedy of the timeline, no suburban commando!

That's a good thing, to be honest.

Good timeline. I can't wait to see the next one.
