The people at the Will Rogers Center were treated to a great show.

 

The Iceman has been on fire for a while know as we never know what to expect. He has such ability to be a babyface or a heel and you have gotten so much out of him.

 

Is Lawler going to get involved with the Funks? Wow... and what are the Funks doing with Kamala?

 

Dusty...Hansen... and Dibiase... Nothing else to so but AWESOME

Lots of great stuff happening in World Class, starting with Iceman Parsons regaining his TV title. One thing we can say is that he's persistent with the Onyx Express but I got a feeling that he'll eventually get them to come around and join his cause.

 

Ah yes, the good ol' fashioned bounty ALWAYS works in territories. :)

What a great promo by Dibiase! This bounty on Rhodes could be one of the biggest storylines in the NWA! It kicked off with a bang as Link went for it but it's going to be a tough task taking out the Dream. I'm loving the Parsons/Onyx storyline. And now that Parsons regained the TV title, he brings credibility to his words. Kamala and the Funks do a number on Lawler but he comes back with a measure of revenge. That Freebirds/Garvin, Embry, Big Bubba match would of been a lot of fun to watch live. Dream and Hansen go at it with Hansen bringing in the bullrope! Things are really heating up with those two.

Parsons/Onyx is a good story for sure. I like the Onyx Express's hesitation as it heightens the anticipation on which way it goes. Dusty as the target of a bounty is definitely Dusty booking, but that is the good kind of Dusty booking. DiBiase's promo was absolute gold.

 

Ft. Worth got a great show with a good match featuring Hall and Iceman. I can hope that ends up a feud. Lawler against the Funks can only be a great thing. Freebirds against Embry/Garden is one of thoe Texas feuds where the 'Birds get to be babyfaces. Dream vs. Hansen is a main event everywhere, but especially in Texas.

Go get em big Dust! I wouldn't mind a Dusty vs Dibiase match up here in 1986...could be a great mix of things. Plus I love the idea of Hansen and Rhodes... I may have to look up if and when that happened to check it out. I also like the rub of the Nasties vs Von Erichs... they are very young and green here but they are getting some good chances to build up.
