Memphis Wrestling TV Report 10.13.07

----Corey Maclin is joined again this week with Reggie B Fine!! Maclin opens the show with clips from last week of Brian Christopher/Ali vs “Too Kool 2” [Tim Grind/Flex] with Gladiator interfering. Brian C/Ali – interview. Good interview.

----“Opening The Vault” with “Moondogs” [Cujo/Spot] with Richard Lee brawl with Jeff Jarrett/Billy Travis. They brawled out to the back of the TV studio. Good clip. Sad that three of the five involved in this angle are dead.

----Kevin White/Sue Young/Mr. White interview. White does well here telling Jerry Lawler that he caused an international incident last week by putting his hands on Young. He said if a man did that to a woman in Young’s country, they would either cut off his finger or execute him. White said, he was going to going to execute Lawler and called Renee a bimbo. Young talked a bit. Very strong interview from Kevin. Mr. White said leaving that Lawler had broke his jaw last week.

----Derrick King/Johnny Dotson/Rashard Devon – interview. DK gives Corey a check. Corey says it must be from Curley Womack, but they censored Womack’s name out this week. King/Dotson beat Tatt2/Crime. Good bout. Heat was on Tatt2, but very little. Almost all babyface shine. Both teams looked good. Finish had hot tag to Crime with Rashard distracting the ref and DK superkicking Crime for the pin. DK/Dotson beat up Tatt2/Crime after the match – Dustin Starr & Chris Lexx make the save.

----Lawler video interview filmed in his yard. Lawler talks about Young and Mr. White. He calls White a “Nature Boy ripoff.” Lawler challenges White for next week.

----Brian C/Ali vs Kevin White/Gladiator with Young/Mr. White. Not good. One spot Ali went to hit the Gladiator in the corner and the ref was suppose to grab his arm, but he didn’t and Ali threw the punch anyway – looked bad. Heat was on Brian C. Hot tag looked real sloppy. Ali was going to powerbomb the Gladiator, but Young jumped on his back. Brian took her from his back to putting her on his shoulders. She was screaming and before he bumped her, TK2 jumped Ali/Brian.

----TK2 – interview. They get up on the ring and start yelling at the crowd, when Ali/Brian C jump them from behind and brawl around the desk. Brian C then grabs Fine and throws him in the ring and gives him a nut shot. None of this looked good.

---- Dustin Starr/Chris Lexx beat “Insane Clowns” [Giggles/Bobo] with Rashard by DQ. Not as good as expected out of this bout. It was rushed, but it was not as bad as the bout before it. Heat on Starr with a hot tag to Lexx. Lexx came off the top rope and had Giggles pinned, when Rashard hit Lexx with their paint bucket in front of the ref. They tried to hit Starr with it after the bout, but he ducked and Bobo got it.

NOTES

----Brian C has toned down the last two weeks with Ali and has done good interviews…Young is toned down a bit this week also. They still have mention she is from Asia, but not as racist as the first few weeks. Young was not great on the mic, but not bad for the second time on TV…Fine was trying to run his own angle about talking to Tatt2…Gladiator is K-Hill, who worked her as a jobber and part of the “Men in Black” gimmick. Three gimmicks in his first year…Maclin when talking about Mr. White saying he broke his jaw and said that Mr. White probably went down there and filed assault charges with Sal Corrente…Clowns came out with a baby doll [It was not a Kayte doll – it had two arms!!] that Rashard called the Chris Lexx action doll and other toys…First 30 minutes of this show was real good, but the last 30 minutes was lackluster. Not as good as last week, but they did continue with all storylines and built stuff for next week. It looks like we will have Lawler vs White in some kind of match and Fine/mystery partner vs Brian C/Ali…Fine was horrible again this week.
