Retro Wrestling Re-View USWA Podcast Ep. 92: (USWA 8/3/91) Friends Today....Enemies Monday Night!

The USWA rolls into August 1991 and things are about as calm and sensible as a chainsaw wielding maniac running loose in Memphis… which is to say, not calm at all. Gene Jackson, Josh Briley, and Brian Tramel dive into another wild Saturday morning episode of USWA Championship Wrestling featuring one of the most bizarre (and oddly unforgettable) stretches of television the territory ever produced. Leatherface continues terrorizing the promotion, complete with homemade horror movie vignettes that somehow managed to both scare kids and confuse grown adults while Jerry Lawler shifts his focus from championship gold to settling personal scores once and for all. Eric Embry melts down over Cousin Harold, tag team champions Jeff Jarrett and Robert Fuller deliver another history lesson disguised as a promo while everyone "enjoys" their "Walking in Memphis" video....again, and the Dirty White Boy and Dirty White Girl promise yet another Back Alley Street Brawl where somebody might wind up leaving the building without their dignity… or their clothes. Add in the debut of a mysterious challenger named Sampson, Reggie B. Fine stealing every second of television time he’s given, and one of the greatest “friends… until we’re not” promos you’ll ever see unfold between "Superstar" Bill Dundee and "Nightmare" Danny Davis and you’ve got peak USWA fun! If you love Memphis wrestling at its weirdest, funniest, and most unpredictable… this one’s for you. New episodes weekly from the Retro Wrestling Archive!
