I have to be honest - Buddy Rose vs. Ronnie Garvin in a WWF ring in Alaska in the year 1990 is something I want to see.

Bushwackers vs. Bolsheviks is not.

Gilbert and Pillman make for an interesting team. Lot of parallels in their short lives.

I know it was Japan and a different time, but opening a show on a time limit draw seems like an odd choice.

As for WCW, so does having a guy pull double duty in a 6 match show. I wonder who didn't bother to show up to the arena to cause that.

This was the month Shane Douglas had a falling out with both Ace and WCW, and bolted, so I'm guessing he's the no-show. Gilbert was likely the booker, so he moved Rich over to the tag match with Ace, and put himself in the opener (that way, he wouldn't be part of two tag matches).

Just playing around with that WCW crew, giving no regards for existing feuds at the time:

1. Brian Pillman over Steve Casey by DQ when the SST interfere.
2. Jimmy Garvin over Mike Rotundo
3. Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson over Rip Morgan and Jack Victory
4. Bobby Eaton and Stan Lane over Tommy Rich and Eddie Gilbert
5. Cactus Jack over Johnny Ace
6. Brian Pillman, Road Warrior Hawk, and Road Warrior Animal over Samu, Fatu, and Samoan Savage

It does still happen occasionally. The young lion matches have a 10 minute time limit and its not rare for shows to open with a young lion draw.

That's a pretty solid card for a show in Alaska. I'd watch that.
