Memphis Wrestling TV Report 10.04.08

----Jerry Lawler and Corey Maclin open the show. They promise Lawler vs Sid Vicious match. Lawler also has a title belt with him and promises to talk about it later. Corey also has a brand new interview with Lance Russell.

----Delta Fair footage: “Los Locos” [Ramon/Raul] vs Derrick King & Johnny Dotson. Heat on Raul. Hot tag to Ramon. DK ends up pinning Ramon using the ropes. Good solid match – nothing special.

----www.wrestlingnewscenter.com gets a plug as the show is going to break. Wow!! I guess it is good to be nice to Corey!!! LOL Congrats guys!!

----Corey Maclin with Lance Russell interview. They put each other over a few times. Then, they talk about the Tojo/Lance angle from a few weeks. Corey talks about Tojo wanting to hit him with a kendo stick in the dressing room in Jonesboro, AR. They talk about Lance being in Memphis or something. Corey is just laughing and babbling. He just loves Lance. LOL Lance puts over www.lancerussell.com.

----“Wrestling Professor” segment is next. 6.20.87 is the date. Moondog Spot comes out with Downtown Bruno as the Mid-America Title. Spot was in good shape “in the day”. Bruno was soooo good on the mic. Spot vs Bucky Seigler.

----Lawler vs Sid Vicious from 8.25.08 in Danbury, CT airs next. Just a typical Lawler bout, but Lawler always works good for the big guys. Solid psychology with Sid getting heat and Lawler making comeback after pulling down the strap. Lawler even bodyslams Sid!! Sid cuts Lawler off with a phantom foreign object. He blasts him and pins him for the win. Sid looked good.

----Lawler/Corey finished the show putting over www.wrestlingnewscenter.com. Corey even says there are sites out there that just have no credibility. LOL Oh I loved that. Corey loves my site; doesn’t he??


NOTES

----I have not seen “Los Locos” enough to know for sure, but I am about 90% sure it was NOT Raul in the ring with Ramon. If it was, then he has got new tattoos, cut his hair and was not even wearing the gimmick….Russell interview was not serious enough. Russell has so much he could add to the show…Sid vs Lawler is from the www.northeastwrestling.com DVD release “New Heatwave”…It is just not believable that in 2008 Sid Vicious would have to beat Lawler [over 60 year old announcer] to get to the WWE. It seems like they run that angle with every Lawler match on the Northeast Wrestling DVDs…For those that don’t read this report on my site, www.wrestlingnewscenter.com is a “copy & paste” site for all the news outside of the Mid-South area. Writer “Axeman” Randall Lewis [usually in Apter mag form] does a good job giving mainly Mississippi area results. It is owned and operated by area manager “Hollywood” Jimmy Blaylock and his daughter Tia Blaylock along with a cast of writers…This show should be posted on Tuesday on www.rasslinriotonline.com along with the weekly poll. Watch and vote!!!
