CWA Memphis TV 3/13/1982
Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2012/08/cwa-memphis-tv-361982.html
Big News: Stanley Blackburn said that the AWA will not tolerate the situation from last week regarding Keirn/Austin and the tag titles. This is because it was unsanctioned, only had a 10-minute time limit as opposed to the usual 60-minute time limit and one man cannot control both titles.
"Back when Keirn and Dundee were champions, we were top contenders then and we are still top contenders now." - Rick Gibson |
"I wanted to give the fans a real treat and let them see two of the greatest athletes in the world in Beautiful Bobby Eaton and Sweet Brown Sugar." - Jimmy Hart |
Rick Gibson and Robert Gibson vs Bobby Eaton and Sweet Brown Sugar w/Kenny Shane at ringside
According to Hart, Speed and Nightmare had car trouble and couldn't make it.
Sugar, the worst dressed wrestler of 1982 |
Shane does it again |
Just hanging out! |
Bobby gets DQ'd for throwing Robert over the top |
They did a quick promo for the upcoming tag team title tournament:
"The First Family of Professional Wrestling. The greatest team in the world." - Jimmy Hart |
"Who is the larger of the two?" - Lance Russell |
"This is the first pairing with The Monk and The Angel and notice, there's not a hair on the head between them." - Lance Russell |
Easy work for the Angel |
Brothers? |
Jerry cut a quick promo:
Jerry Lawler vs Gypsy Joe
Lawler made quick work of Joe |
Jerry Lawler and Danny Davis |
"Lawler says, you wanna play with the chair? Come on in here." |
Bill Dundee vs The Invader
"From Parts Unknown at 193lbs, this is The Invader." - Dave Brown |
The pin |
Bill Dundee won here in a nothing match with a backslide in 2:15.
We immediately got:
Norvell Austin vs Dennis Upton
Nice handstand |
Norvell won here with a headbutt in 2:08. Boring match.
We got a promo by Bill Dundee:
"I've never seen so many ugly men in one camp. You seen the Monk and the Angel? Only a mother could kiss that." - Dundee on the First Family |
Jimmy Hart came out:
There was about 10 seconds until Bill got beat down |
"Another cheap lousy shot by the First Family." - Lance Russell |
Expiration of time match - 1st Fall - Rick McCord and Chief Thundercloud vs Dream Machine and Crazy Luke Graham
Luke Graham |
Dream won this one after an elbow at 1:56. There was nothing to this at all.
We then got a quick promo with Norvell Austin:
"Where ya gonna go now Lawler? Winner take all." - Norvell Austin "I'm gonna have my guns loaded and comin' at you, straight as an arrow my friend." |
Overall thoughts: This one was just so-so. Nothing very interesting and definitely no good matches. Skip it!
