On this week’s Retro Wrestling Re-View, the gang takes a deep dive into the February 23, 1991 episode of USWA Championship Wrestling!
The big story is the shocking unholy alliance of Jerry “The King” Lawler and “Hot Stuff” Eddie Gilbert, who agree to team up against Texans Eric Embry and Dr. Tom Prichard—but not without $25,000 bonds to guarantee they don’t turn on each other. We break down the promos, the intensity, and the fallout from this feud that has Tennessee battling Texas in one of Memphis Wrestling’s wildest storylines.
Also on this episode:
- Jeff Jarrett delivers an emotional promo trying to talk sense into Jamie Dundee, only for “JC Ice Baby” to double down on rebellion against his father Bill.
- Dirty White Boy Tony Anthony steps in to defend Jamie from Dundee, igniting a heated personal feud with “Superstar” Bill Dundee
- The U.S. Males (Curtis Thompson & Chris Walker) make their mark, while Freezer Thompson and Gary Jackson take a beating.
- Stunning Steve Austin is ready to challenge for the Southern Heavyweight Title.
- Plus, chaos at the Mid-South Coliseum with six big matches, including Lawler & Gilbert teaming for the first time ever!
If you love classic Memphis mayhem—blood, betrayal, family drama, and state pride on the line—you won’t want to miss this one!
