RassleChronicle: 11.18.06 and Memphis 10 Years Ago

----RassleChronicle covers the results of RAW/Nitro 10 years ago. This week is posted.I have also added a Herb Kunze Wrestling Tidbits column that was published at this time.

----I also stole the below from www.wrestlingobserver.com, which was 10 years ago in Memphis Wrestling this past weekend.

USWA: The highlight of the November 16th tv show was Jerry Lawler capturing the Unified title from the Colorado Kid. The finish saw both Randy Hales and Bert Prentice get into, which distracted the referee and allowed Lawler to use the dreaded illegal piledriver behind the referee’s back, before pinning Kid. The finish was said to make no sense, as Lawler no longer worked Monday night house shows due to his WWF commitments….. Doug Gilbert was set to return to the promotion as Brian Christopher’s new babyface tag team partner….. A new wrestler said to be a Michael Bolton-lookalike, billing himself as ‘Bobby Bolton’, was set to debut with the promotion on November 18th, facing Tony Falk.
