"Billy, hows the arm doing?"
"It ain't doing too good and I don't feel too good today."
"Right now, I don't think I could beat the prettiest girl in here."
"Maybe I'm gettin' older Lance, I don't know." |
We then got a promo with the First Family:

"You know Steve Keirn, you done put yourself in the hands of two vultures."
"We just gonna see how much punishment you can take in the Louisville Gardens." |
We then got highlights from Steve Keirn and Robert Gibson vs Sweet Brown Sugar and Bobby Eaton:

Keirn's about to get caned. |
Gibson made a nice comeback here then Sugar promptly threw him over the top. Looked to be about ** before it happened.
We then got highlights from Lawler vs Mantel:

Lawler takes a chair
"Well they said anything goes." - Lance Russell |
The ref stopped the match after they excessively brawled in the crowd. They went all up in the second tier of the arena.
We then got a Dutch promo:

"This thing has gone far enough. I flat don't like that guy."
"Lawler your time has come, and I'm the guy to put pressure on you. I'm gonna kick your teeth in before it's all over." |
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbpEg8QBk_jZHX3bTJXtbtp4ORbyPAjoJM1u5MsinX2vt-pkl1pP6Nca2XdFWQelw6BMAapcQS7HegJvz9DqBW2JQYK5DKbon-IT2KjzS_IyoPmOU-PABV0eKELq9g_xeRRVDnT9bz1K5p/s1600/vlcsnap-2012-08-16-12h58m07s36.png) |
"I don't think the place is big enough for the both us and I'd like to do something never before done."
"Let's go for all the marbles, everything there is."
"LOSER LEAVES TOWN" |
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwNmri-3cxopvtLvwWqU62iVL40ipwt3ggWHG1akmo6zfd31wNZVS3fIK-QQVFW3TL2ly7QbMW9GyLwuNBb_z1s-CSCpBmDGHvpMU22EwrUVxJZcX4bnHIAw7r31KzLu7PSBTs-6uoGewT/s1600/vlcsnap-2012-08-16-13h00m54s171.png) |
"It's either me or it's either Lawler. The place ain't big enough for the both of us." |
Dutch challenges Lawler to a Loser Leaves town match live on TV, but Lance makes it seem like it can't happen. AWESOME Promo. You want all of this.
Lawler then cut a promo:

"You have just seen the classic example of man letting his alligator mouth overload his humming bird rear-end."
"We're gonna have ourselves a match right now. The winner can grab this belt right here and the loser can get himself a bus ticket out of Memphis, Tennessee." |

"Dutch Mantel in a situation, just the pulled the lowest thing in there." |
Do I even need to tell you how good this was? This was an absolutely awesome angle. These men played their roles to PERFECTION and Dutch owned it with the last minute turn. I also LOVE how he counted his own pin and took the belt, just to make things more embarassing for Lawler. 5 stars.

Hart with the stick |
Hart's Family got DQ'd after Hart used the stick at 6:02. This one wasn't too bad. There was a ton of heat for it, that's for sure.
Jerry Lawler then cut a house show promo:

"Every word I said about that low-life, back-stabbin', stinkin' scum is true."
"Now, he actually thinks with that pea brain of his than I'm goin'."
"I'm goin' right at you and I'm gonna get my hands around your neck, friend. I'm gonna shake something and it's not your hand. I'm gonna get my hands around that neck of yours and shake the life out of you, Dutch Mantel."
"You wanna be friends? You don't have any friends and you never had any friends."
"I don't care if it goes outside on the street Dutch Mantel, it's gonna go until I leave you layin' in the middle of that ring in a pool of your own stinkin' blood."
"You're not gonna see me, Louisville or wrestling every again."
|
Overall thoughts: This was a MUST-SEE episode of Memphis wrestling. The Lawler vs Dutch match was 5 stars with a classic angle. You have to see this one ASAP. This is Memphis at its best.
