Dustin Starr Drama - Full Story
called the cops. Starr was trying to leave and get his stuff when he was boxed him in the dressing room. He was just trying to get his stuff. The cops arrived and made Starr leave. Memphis Wrestling TV Report 1.27.07..well sort of..LOL
----You had to know this would able before long, but my power went out when I was out of town for a show, so my DVD recorder did to record the Memphis Wrestling show. I have posted here at report comprised of spoilers I had and a report on a local message board.
----A Battle Royal took place with the last two participates facing each other next week for the Memphis Wrestling TV Title – Derrick King vs Jerry Lawler next week for the belt.
----This Memphis Wrestling TV report is also posted every week on http://www.wrestlingobserver.com/, http://www.pwinsider.com/, http://www.declarationofindependents.net/ , Yahoo Mempho Group, http://www.pwtorch.com/, http://www.world-wrestling.net/,

Dustin Starr Drama - Is he already gone from NBW??
He has the promoters and owners of the business thinking he is out control. I was told that they may have charges filed and probably will not be back. On the flip side, it looks like the Steele/Sir Mo angle was getting over as they had a house of over $500 or “maybe more”. The question I keep asking myself is how many bridges can Dustin Starr burn??? Will he be accepted at TLCW with open arms?? Or will the promotions around here finally decided he is not worth the drama they are putting up with?? Saturday, January 27, 2007
Arena Report: LAW Rector, AR 1.27.07
with the “Goldi-lock” submission. Good opening bout. Randy has got to be the most improved worker in the last year. He does not have the body or “look” of a wrestler, but he is turning into a good worker. [**]
stuff. The crowd popped good for Psycho’s entrance and the finish, [“dreamcatcher” onto a trashcan] but it was a bit too long and everyone was bleeding. I love blood, but this was excessive. Even though they did do an angle with Hayes saying Alex Krisis sent him, it was just not believable when Psycho/Hayes have no history. Lee was part of the finish from the last show [as he was one of the beat up refs], so he jumped in the middle of the match. Lee also made a huge mistake by taking Hayes throwing him into the crowd as both of them were juicing people. [*]
Simon tags back to Chris for double heat. Good psychology. 2cnd hot tag to Simon ends up with “Posse” doing their double team finisher [Simon picks up Chris as both go down for a Bubba bomb with Chris doing a legdrop]. Chris actually kicked Bishop down and then got the pin on Oz. [**3/4]

Scott Starr signs with WWE
----Scott Starr sign WWE development deal this past week. I have only seen Starr work a few times, so it would be hard for me to judge his work. But, as Dustin Starr says on his site, this gives everyone the HOPE of getting to the WWE. William Gibson also posted an article on Starr’s site about the awards from this site. CHECK IT OUT!!
LAW Tonight!!
early Saturday morning. The main
event will be Brian Christopher vs Dustin Starr for the LAW Title. The question is whether Brian will be doing the JOB or a screw job finish. I will have Seth Knight DVDs with me and Seth will be there to sign them. If you are a visitor of the site and going to be at the show, please stop by and say HEY!!! Thursday, January 25, 2007
Blalok & The Fireball!!!
----You know I am usually not one to put anybody over, but when I report something incorrect then I like to correct it. So, my sincerest apologies to people when I screw up the fact. Case in point – I reported that Blalok the Blazer had been goofing off and threw a fireball backstage. Blalok [listed as Dion Bowman in his e-mail] said that he was not goofing off. He said that Krisis had hit him low, so he threw a fireball at him. Krisis had thought it was Criminyle [I had reported he thought it was Crime] and he went after Criminyle. Blalok says he “got him [Krisis] off” of Criminyle and then Krisis/him went toe to toe. WTF?? I think that was almost the same story I told except for Criminyle. The main deal is this – you threw a fireball. Stop doing stupid shit in the dressing rooms and I will quit reporting it.

www.rasslinriotonline.com reaches 200,000 hits!!!
----Thanks to everyone for helping me reach the 200,000 mark this quickly. It has been just over 8 months since the start of the website. The amazing part is that we reached 150,000 hits on January 1, 2007 and now here on the 24th I have over 200,000!! So, I have had 50,000 hits in less than a month. I contribute this to the Yearbook, which got lots of hits. I have also joined a few more sites with my weekly Memphis Wrestling TV reports. The SEW show that features Sid Vicious has also made people all over the world start talking, so I thank that group for helping.

RassletBits: Yearbook, Sir Mo, more Awards Aftermath, DVD releases, Starr NBW meeting, RassleTube and Spell/Lawler
----NBW booker Sir Mo is featured on wwe.com in the Royal Rumble feature. It states “The Superstar with the shortest time in the Rumble Match is The Warlord with two seconds in 1989. In 1995, the next shortest times belonged to Mo and Owen Hart who each lasted three seconds.
----Apparently there was a NBW dressing room meeting about the pay rate of Dustin Starr [pictured with his "Horizon" Trophy]. Sir Mo pretty much told everyone to not worry about what Starr was making. Starr received his regular pay and then Mo gave him some extra on his debut night. It was reported that Starr walked in during the middle of the discussion. He sat down and then asked to say something and said, “Yeah I make twice as much as you guys do, AND I ate two hot dogs for free!!!" LOL Now if he said that --- that is funny!!
----It was reported on the Trent Van Drisse’s message board that Spellbinder and Jerry Lawler “kiss and made up” at the Jackson, TN show at the Palace. Lawler seem to be cool with everything, but he probably had to hear Spell saying, “I was just putting you over man.” Have you not read the Spellbinder shoot?? CLICK HERE to read it.

The Ratings Are In!! Lawler Breaks his Streak!!!
----The show opened with a 2.1 [35,622 viewers] with the Bam Bam tribute and Dundee vs King. The next quarter jumped 13,982 viewers scoring a 3.0 [49,605 viewers] for the Jimmy Hart announcement and the start of Lawler vs Jethro/Nate. The third quarter scored the same with 3.0 [49,605 viewers] for finish of Lawler vs Jethro/Nate, the 8-man tag and Tim Grind interview talking about Flex being in jail. The last quarter only dropped 666 viewers scoring a 2.9 [48,939 viewers] for the Starr/White vs Grind/Flash title change and the White turning heel angle. The show finished with 13,317 more viewers than it started with.
----Even though the show is not doing the ratings of last month, there are still positives. The main one is that hardly anyone turned off the show with the only loss being less than 700 viewers. So, that is saying that the people that were watching the show were actually enjoying it. Lawler has to be happy about not losing viewers and breaking his 7th show streak. A negative would be they promoted with a few commercials during “Smackdown” of a big announcement from Jimmy Hart and it looks like it did not affect the ratings.
RassleResults: MEW Batesville, AR 1.13.07 - New Champ!!!
MEW Title Match: Casino Kid won the title beating “Dangerous” Dave Cox and in the Main Event: “Righteous Punishment” [Jack “Lockdown” Johnson/Byg Daddy Moose] beat Scotty Graham/Matt Boyce.Bam Bam Bigelow Photos Posted!!
----The Bam Bam Bigelow photos have been posted. These photos were taken by me sometime in either 1985 or 86 in a bout vs Jerry Lawler in Blytheville, AR. They are not perfect as they have a tint to them, but I think I was using a small 110 camera when I first started shooting wrestling. The one pic shows him doing the Flair bump, so you can see how agile a guy his size was. CLICK HERE TO SEE THEM!!
