I did a podcast on this show here:
This is JIP.
"I went to Eddie Marlin and said, "book me everywhere this week USWA's gonna go cause I wanna say goodbye." - Bill Dundee |
"Look at Mike Miller's face. He's got bandages under the eye and all over the place. He's really messed up." - Dave Brown |
Mike Samples and Master of Terror then ran in and got the DQ win for Dundee. The match wasn't that bad. Miller got tons of shots in when usually he would just get squashed bad. Dave Brown went on about all of Miller's cuts and bruises during this.
The Master of Terror hit two piledriver's on Dundee on the outside but the camera's cut away each time during the hit. No idea why here as it's Memphis and it's not that bad.
There was a 3 on 1 until Danny Davis and Jerry Lawler made the save.
Lawler came out.
"I think they looked around the country and simply said, who is the most exciting guy we see on the television around the world and it's The King." - Jerry Lawler |
"We had this little battle royal and in my opinion, Mike Samples cost me $10,000. Now when somebody costs me $10,000, I don't like it and I don't take it lightly." - Lawler |
We saw some clips of what happened with a cameo from The Christmas Creature.
Kind of a weird promo with King complaining about Samples using a weapon when it was a weapons battle royale with King bringing in a trash can. Mike Miller then nailed Lawler with a chair.
They brawled and people came in to stop it.
Jeff Jarrett was interviewed about an upcoming show and they did some line-ups.
Dave said Miller got his face messed up from Miller showing up at a party. Lawler was asked to get him quiet and they got into it supposedly.
Danny Davis was interviewed.
"I consider him my blood kin." - Davis on Dundee |
"You are not going to get away with what you did to Bill Dundee. Both of you will be carried out and that's a promise from me." - Danny Davis |
Mr. Paradise vs Jerry Lawler
Lawler won quick by DQ when Mike Miller ran in. It was a squash and the only real highlight as Mr. Paradise totally horse vaulting himself Olympic style into a Lawler backdrop.
More fighting went on until they got split up.
Miller tried to explain what happened to him and got big heat. So much that he was barely audible.
"When I get ready to go some place, and I'm ready to leave, I'LL LEAVE." - Mike Miller |
"I'm gonna get you back Lawler." - Miller |
"You see this face? This is looking good compared to what you're gonna be looking like when I get through with you, baby." - Miller |
They showed the finish of a match from the Brian Christopher vs Jeff Jarrett feud.
Jarrett won by grabbing the tights after a good looking match with cheating and near falls. Apparently, this was for Zeke Rivers(Brian's manager) hair.
Jeff Jarrett vs The Bounty Hunter
Clearly, the put out all the stops for The Bounty Hunter's wardrobe. |
Brian Christopher and Zeke Rivers came out to talk.
"Jeff Jarrett, I got a deal for you." - Brian Christopher |
"Jeff Jarrett, don't you dare even laugh, boy." - Brian |
"Jeff Jarrett, I got the deal of a lifetime. You put that Southern Heavyweight Title on the line, I'll put Clyde's hair on the line." - Brian |
"I don't care about Zeke's hair and I don't care about Clyde's hair. Unless your hair is on the line, don't even talk to me, Brian." - JJ |
"I'll make a better deal, Clyde's hair on the line and $2,000." - Brian |
They went to a break as Brian flipped out. |
"Jeff Jarrett, you can't beat me three times in a row. You can't shave my head yet alone Clyde's head, boy." - Brian |
"Jeff Jarrett, you can't beat me, you're mine!" - Brian |
"I don't go around making an ass of myself like you Mike Miller, when you were drunk." - Lawler |
Leslie Bellinger and Mike Samples came out. No, I don't know or remember anything about Bellinger.
"Eddie Marlin, I'm gonna whip you like a dog. When I'm finished with you, you're gonna be back sitting on the front porch, drinking gallons of Geritol." - Leslie Bellinger |
"I hope they're gonna turn on the air conditions in this building today because Jerry Lawler's been burning enough hot air to melt an ice burg." - Mike Samples |
The Harris Brothers (managed by Mike Samples) vs Mountain Man Miller and Ben Jordan
The Brothers won quick with a powerbomb on Jordan. They continued it after.
"Uh oh, how's your head there, pal?" - Samples to Miller |
The Moondogs came out to put a stop to the beating.
The Moondogs cleared out the Harris Brothers and Richard Lee got on the mic.
"You stole our belts. We're getting them back come hell or high water." - Richard Lee on Samples and The Harris Bros. |
The crowd was super hot for this as The Moondogs were the most over act at the time in the USWA. It was hard to hear what Lee said but he talked about how Samples was all talks and his dogs were gonna destroy The Harris Brothers. The Dogs were going nuts, barking up a storm and hitting things with chairs. The Moondogs are my favorite tag team along with Demolition and this is the first or second time I've gotten to cover them here.
Eddie Marlin was interviewed.
"I learned as I was growing up to not hit a lady, but Leslie Bellinger, you have not shown to conduct yourself as a lady." - Marlin |
Mike Samples got involved and Dundee wore a neck brace but otherwise seemed magically recovered from the three piledrivers on the floor. I thought one on the floor was enough but apparently the booker didn't as three were hit and Dundee made an appearance later.
They had a big brawl to close the show with Eddie Marlin putting a stop to things.
Overall thoughts: I thought this was a pretty good show overall. I enjoyed the Lawler vs Miller feud and The Moondogs were crazy and exciting like always. Miller really stepped it up and got great heat and Lawler did good too. I hated Dundee blowing off the three piledrivers though and they could have used a match of at least a few minutes here. I would recommend this overall.
