Two of the scans were too large to upload to the boards, so I've copied links from Facebook where I posted them on the group I run. Here's an article on the September 27, 1984 Portland Expo Building show that talks about the Savoldis running their own promotion, the matches on the show that night, and some other details. IWWA grapples for corner of Maine ring, Portland Press Herald, 09/27/84.

Finally, we have a Sports Bulletin Board notice and an ad for the May 08, 1985 TV taping that ran in the Press Herald on the same day of the show. Notice that the promotion is referred to in the Bulletin Board as the International World Wrestling Federation (IWWF) and Dory Funk Jr. is billed as IWW Champion, yet the ad uses the name Championship Wrestling. Here's what was advertised for the TV taping: Pepsi Cola Bottling Co. of Auburn presents ICW TV taping @ Portland Expo Building Portland, ME May 08, 1985 Start time: 07:00 P.M. Ninety minute rematch for Universal Heavyweight Title - newly crowned champion Dory Funk Jr. vs. Carlos Colon Live grudge match - Champions Rockers vs. Sheepherders Plus 20 live matches being filmed at Expo for national TV featuring Tonga Kid, Dr. D David Schultz, Sika, Alpha (sic) & Sam the Samoans, The Invaders I and 2, Abdullah the Butcher, Hercules Ayala, Kevin "Prince of Darkness" Sullivan and Fallen Angel, Victor Jovica, Diamond Jim, Ray Apollo, Rudy Diamond, Taras Bulba - over 30 TV stars in all Tickets: $7.00 ringside, $5.00 gen. adm., on sale at Bulls Cafe Biddeford & Sportsmans Bar and Grille Portland For ticket info call Expo 773-5995 ICW TV taping, Portland Expo Building, Portland, ME, May 08, 1985 - Portland Press Herald, 05/08/85

The disqualification comes from Kevin Sullivan and The Fallen Angel interfering in the match. Kevin Sullivan and The Purple Haze are listed as having two matches against Tom Brandi and Chauncey Johnson on the December 28, 1985 tapings. I'm pretty sure this is an accident. One of the matches is actually Sullivan and the Haze against Chris Gallahad and Tom Brandi. Last edited on Mon May 16th, 2022 11:01 pm by ssw1983 |
