Witchi's Sports Arena
North Attleboro, MA
January 29, 1971
While half the crew was in Harrisburg, PA tonight, the other half made their way to North Attleboro for tonight's show. Unfortunately the card is pretty lackluster with the main event being Bulldog Brower vs Tony Marino. The Wolfman takes on Manuel Soto and Pete Sanchez goes up against Joe Turco. Its definitely a small spot show but its still something, let's get to the action.
Match 1
Carlos Parades vs Vincente Pometti
We open the show with a battle of the latinos as Argentina's Pometti takes on Parades. Pometti got the win, no 20 minute draw this time.
Winner: Pometti
Match 2
"Nobleman" Joe Turco vs Pete Sanchez
Another mid-card showdown between Turco and Sanchez. Turco got the win, no idea how.
Winner: Turco
Match 3
Tomas Marin vs "Unpredictable" Johnny Rodz
Another mid-card showdown with Rodz taking on Marin. Rodz somehow got the win.
Winner: Rodz
Match 4
Manuel Soto vs The Wolfman
Wolfman needed a big win to get back in title contention after losing to Pedro Morales earlier in the month and Soto wants to win to get back into title contention after losing to Ivan Koloff. Unfortunately for Soto, the Wolfman got the win.
Winner: Wolfman
Match 5
Tony Marino vs Bulldog Brower
Not much of a main event with the crazy Bulldog taking on the former Battman. Marino won by DQ and chased Bulldog away to send the fans home happy.
Winner: Marino by DQ
Not much of a show with a bunch of mid-carders and curtain jerkers. 30 years later this type of card would be perfect for an episode of WWF Metal. This was like re-arranging the chairs on the deck of the Titanic. None of these guys with the exception of maybe Brower would be in title contention in the future. Still, Vince Sr had a deal with North Attleboro so every week they'd send guys there no matter where they were in the pecking order. The main crew would make their way to Queens tomorrow night so we'll pick up there.
