Memphis Wrestling Appreciation Thread
I am a huge fan of Jerry Jarrett's territory in Memphis
Jerry Lawler of course was his top star Their lead announcer Lance Russell could make anything seem great This is perhaps one of my favorite angles they ever did Bill Savage went over to the (Stu Hart) house and one of the Hart kids was running around with his hair wet. Savage asked why his hair was wet. Stu said, "the little bast--d broke a vase this morning, so I stuck his head in the toilet. Want me to show you again?" |

No video, just a comment.
Lance Russell belongs on the list of the great play-by-play guys ever. Him, Jim Ross and Gordon Solie are the top three ever. EVER!!! |

A historic concession stand brawl erupts after an AWA Southern Tag Team Title match which took place in Tupelo, Mississippi featuring the Blond Bombers (Wayne Farris, Larry Latham) challenging the current tag team champs, Jerry Lawler and Bill Dundee.
After a bloody and brutal match, the Blond Bombers end up winning the tag team title but Lawler and Dundee aren't satisfied and actually steal the belts away from the new champs. The resulting fight spills over into the concession stand bringing the entire house crowd with it. |

Does anyone actually watch any of these videos? DLVH and Seth keep posting them as if they're incredible historical finds that everyone has been dying to see.
