I just found this thread and thought I'd throw in my two cents:

After losing TV in 1984 Geigel, Gagne, O'Connor, and Race continued to promote the regular shows, albeit featuring a lot of Central States talent (as All Star Wrestling aired on TV still) with AWA and World Class guys doing a lot on the upper card.  Blackwell of course was a regular (and was indeed feuding with Race), and I believe Rick Martel even had an AWA title match with Nick Bockwinkle in 1985 in St. Louis.  Also, Sgt. Slaughter was in for a match with either Flair or Race.  

From World Class, it was mostly Iceman King Parsons (as he was from the area), Kerry Von Erich, and Chris Adams working shows.  In fact, I believe Kerry had two main events in a row, one against Adams and one against Flair in the summer of '85.  While these matches sound good, the undercard featured such stellar events as Dick the Bruiser vs. Mr. Pogo, and if you saw either of these guys in 1985-86, you know what that must have been like!

World Class pulled out of the NWA to do their own thing soon thereafter, so those guys were gone from the main events.  Also, not only had Crockett restricted Flair's dates outside his territory, but he mandated that the top part of every card featuring the World Champ feature his boys as well.  So, on Feb. 8th, 1986 the very last card of the St. Louis Wrestling Club was held (I'm almost certain this was the date).  I believe this card was held at the Arena.  The following are results from that fateful day:

1. Rocky Johnson defeated Timothy Flowers-- this was during Rocky's brief 1986 stop in Geigel territory.

2. Debbie Combs defeated Althea Montague (sp?)

3. Crusher Blackwell defeated Kareem Muhammed

4. Nick Bockwinkle defeated Larry Zbyszko on a DQ

5. Rock & Roll Express beat The Midnight Express on a DQ, so the MX kept the NWA World Tag Team Titles.

6. Tully Blanchard defeated Jimmy Valiant

7. Harley Race defeated Ric Flair in a non-title steel cage match.


After this, Race worked in Central States and the AWA briefly, and then headed to the WWF, while Geigel handed his territory over to Crockett.  Crockett ran a couple of big cards in 86-87 that featured talent from his home base, as well as the jobbers he sent into KC to do main events there (i.e. Italian Stallion, Thunderfoots, MOD Squad, Brady Boone, etc.)  After Geigel got his territory back, Crockett continued to run cards with his guys at the Kiel.  In an interesting note, Larry Matysik became the local promoter for the WWF until the mid-90s.
