From Grosse Pointe News 03/25/82. I had to clip the article into 3 separate JPG images since the GPN papers are stored in PDF format. This is the headline with a few photos, and as you can see, it made the front page of the sports section!

The third picture from the 03/19/82 Grosse Pointe Superstars card, as run in the 03/25/82 Grosse Pointe News. Greg "Great Wojo" Wojciechowski started his grandstand challenge to any fan to wrestle him here, and Greg would continue this challenge when he worked for Dick the Bruiser's WWA promotion.

Once again, I've found slightly different results for a Superstars show in an issue of Tom Burke's GWNS. This time, it's the CNE Coliseum card that George Cannon promoted on 06/06/76. I also clipped the ad for the show juxtaposed with the Tunney card at MLG just to show the difference in lineups. Superstars of Wrestling @ CNE Coliseum Toronto, ON June 6, 1976 Start time: 07:30 PM Canadian Heavyweight Champion Tony Parisi DCO Eric the Red Luis Martinez DDQ Wild Bull Curry Fred Curry (sub: Gino Brito-see clip below) & Don Serrano D Hartford Love & Beautiful Bruce Swayze by DQ Lou Thesz D Crusher Cortez The McGuire Twins D The Executioners (not the WWWF ones) Danny War Cloud & Billy Eagle D Bob Steele & Jim Hutchinson Hagar the Horrible DW Zimba Khan Pepe DePasquale DW Frenchy Martin (not the same one) Advance tickets for show sold at Eaton's Stores Attachment: Toronto War of 1976.jpg (Downloaded 77 times)

I found a clip for the 05/27/80 Superstars card at the St. John's Memorial Stadium in an issue of Tom Burke's GWNS. The clip supplier wrote the results next to the wrestler' names, as you'll see. Some title history uncovered here, as the Canadian Heavyweight Title was up for grabs between Don Kent and Luis Martinez, with Kent winning the match and the belt.

A few more Cannon Superstars results (covering the summer of 1980) from Tom Burke's GWNS. Clawmaster (RIP) shared the lineups for these at the beginning of the thread. Superstars @ Memorial Stadium St. John's, NL June 10, 1980 Luis Martinez D Canadian Heavyweight Champion Don Kent in a strap match (Canadian Heavyweight Title not on line) George Cannon D Haystacks Calhoun by DQ Bob DellaSerra D Hartford Love Louis Laurence D The Hungarian Wolfman Chief Bobby Whitefeather D Pancho Ferraro Superstars @ Memorial Stadium St. John's, NL July 08, 1980 George the Animal Steele D Canadian Heavyweight Champion Luis Martinez in a Loser-leaves-town match to win the title Hartford Love D Bob DellaSerra in a cage match Dark Angel & Tom Thumb D Dan Ferris & Sky Low Low Dark Angel DW Dan Ferris No result for Louis Laurence vs. Haystacks Calhoun I have this clip for the 07/22/80 St. John's card from an issue of Terry Justice's TNT Times. The date on the ad was incorrectly listed as 07/08/80, so Terry included a note on the correct date. Attachment: SuperstarsofWrestling_StJohns,NL_07-22-80.jpg (Downloaded 58 times)
