Memphis Wrestling 10 Years Ago..

USWA: There was continued chaos behind the scenes. There were conflicting reports over whether a Texas group now owned the company, or if the company was still owned by a three person group from Cleveland. James Beard and Bert Prentice were in charge of booking. There was much concern from the owners because the company wasn’t making any real money. Many of the wrestlers were getting worried, as the promotion hadn’t run any house shows for over a week, and had also eliminated babyface wrestlers from working the gimmick table at spot shows (thus depriving them of some extra income) as they wanted to put out a more professional appearance…… Tommy Rich and Rex King had left the promotion…… Steven Dunn defeated Doomsday for the USWA title on the first September 6th, taped Saturday midnight show…….. Also on the show, former WCW jobber Hardbody Harrison debuted, interfering in Brian Christopher’s match with Billy Travis……. They also aired a Tommy Dreamer promo, and seemed to be building towards a four-way match featuring Dreamer, Jerry Lawler, Bill Dundee and Dutch Mantell.
