Memphis Wrestling TV Report 11.22.08 - Wow BT Watches The Show Edition!!

----I took a little time this morning to fast forward thru Memphis Wrestling, but was surprised to see some stuff on here that I wanted to re-watch. So here goes a quick Memphis Wrestling Report.

----Buddy Landell interview with Buddy saying something about “putting down the pipe”. LOL Landell was the best. He joined Corey Maclin on commentary during a “Alternative Express” [Chase Stevens/Andy Douglas] vs “East Coast Bad Boys” [Spiro/Serpent] match. Landell says enough stuff in this match to get them kicked off the air. LOL Great commentary and match wasn’t bad either. Athena really looked the part with the guys.

----Derrick King came out with a band-aid on his head. This was his return to Memphis Wrestling on CW 30. Kamala came out next, so we got DK vs Kamala. This was a squash after Kim Chee tripped DQ. DK was bumping his ass off and Kamala was also working hard. They beat up DK after the match and Koko Ware makes save.

----Jerry Lawler with Rocky Johnson vs Rex Moondog [this is the guy that teamed with Spot during his last match] with Spot Moondog. Quick typical Lawler bout. Spot jumps in and Rocky makes the save.

----Brian Christopher vs Nicolas Doom. Solid bout. Brian Christopher wins.

----Not bad for first 28 minutes of the show with some solid matches. I am not sure what the ratings were during this time frame, but they had a lot of good talent.

----And then, we have that stupid “Wrestling Professor” coming out!! This kid is horrible!! Lawler vs Bill Dundee in a “Loser Leave Town” match – classic great bout!! They had heels and babys surrounding the ring in chairs to see the outcome. Tony Falk handed something to Dundee for Dundee to use – pinned Lawler and won.

----Dundee interview talking about wrestling the “Midnight Rider” Monday night. They stole the old Dusty Rhodes gimmick. Dundee was also on the phone doing an interview with Maclin. Are they pushing towards Dundee vs Lawler??

NOTES

----Will Gibson, Bill Rush and Rashard Devon were all featured refs...I am still totally against this show not airing new stuff, but this show wasn’t that bad. They spent the last 30 minutes on Lawler vs Dundee, so how can that be bad; huh?? Well, we will just have to see how good the ratings were for this show.
