Memphis Wrestling TV Report - Rerun Season Episode 4

---- Corey Maclin opens alone with a black backdrop. They show clips of “last week” with Jerry Lawler/Brian Christopher splitting the money. They also show Jimmy Hart trying to give Corey a watch. Corey is joined by Brian Teigland again this week.

----“Mr. Compulsive” Tim Grind vs Tracy Smothers with Jimmy Hart opens the show. Outside the ring is another Sexy Assassin that has not unmasked yet. I actually think this is Brian Bump, who is the brother of Flex. Ref was distracted and Brian Christopher came out to interfere. It backfired and ended with Grind using a belt to hit Smothers with and pin him. Match was noticeable cut.

----Shock with Hart interview. Shock calls out Ms Summer. Shock says that he liked it when she got slapped last week. Shock says to get rid of Brandon Groom and go with him. Summer says Groom is more man than Shock will ever be. They book a match with Shock vs Groom – winner gets Summer for “July 10” show. Shock beats Derrick King in an almost squash bout. Summer/Groom watched the match.

----Classic clip with “Rock N Roll Express” [Ricky Morton/Robert Gibson] vs “Bruise Brothers’ [“Dream Machine” Troy Graham/Porkchop Cash]

----Lawler video interview talking about his fireworks stand that you can buy “tomorrow”. Lawler talks about the “July 10” show.

----Tim Davidson [Grind] comes out for an interview. Grind challenges Brian C/partner vs Sexy Assassin/Grind for the “July 10” show.

----They air a vignette with “Harts Angels”. Three girls go in a room that was supposed to have Kamala in it. [You could hear him slapping his stomach. LOL] They went in there to get Kamala to sign a 15 year singing contact with Jimmy Hart. They came out with the contract signed and one of the girls said, “That Kamala is kinda cute too.” Funny stuff.

----Lawler/Hart/Brian C come out. Lawler tells Corey that they have unfinished business. Brian C says that Lawler and he need to be partners vs Grind/Assassin. Lawler says that he will tag with Brian C. Hart is upset that Lawler/Brian C are teaming. Lawler says that him and Brian C will team today managed by Hart.

----Jimmy Hart has clips from “Legends of Wrestling” video game of footage of “everyone that Hart has beaten.” LOL This was good. Hart was beating up Roddy Piper, Sting and Davey Boy Smith.

----“The Lifeguards” [Scott & Dustin Starr] beat by DQ Lawler/Brian C with Hart. Hot tag to Dustin ended up with Grind coming out pushing Brian off the top rope. Hart got in the ring and the ref called for a DQ. Brian C went after Hart. Shock came in for the save. Tim Grind jumped in and then ‘Guards starting beating up on Lawler. Corey then jumped Lawler. Hart finally pulled Corey off Lawler. Then Lawler/Shock went to beat up on Corey. Corey was choking Lawler with his tie, but it ended up with Lawler choking him.

NOTES

----This was a good show. Good angles and good build up for the “July 10” show. The presence of Hart made a lot of difference in the show…It was funny how they put over The Lifeguards over more than DK…This show originally aired 7.03.04.
