As we finish out January 1993 in the USWA, Gene Jackson welcomes special guest co-host Brian Tramel of STSPod.club! Fresh off a showdown at the WWF Royal Rumble the week before, “Mr. Perfect” Curt Hennig (from the WWF!) is coming to town to challenge ‘The King’ for the USWA Unified World Title on Monday night at the Mid-South Coliseum! Ron & Don Harris, The Bruise Brothers are here after winning the USWA Tag Team Titles in the tournament last Monday night after defeating Jeff Jarrett & Jerry Lawler! Since Moondog Spike has gone down to injury, Richard Lee has found a “new” Moondog who happens to be the biggest Moondog that Memphis has ever seen! Check out the show to find out what happened when the Dogs and the Bruise Brothers came face to face in the TV-5 studio! Jeff Jarrett has been challenged by a masked man known only as the “Rock & Roll Phantom”, but who is it? Could it be the “Greatest IC Champ of All Time”??  Plus, Bert Prentice crosses the line in his feud with Miss Texas, which leads to a “back alley street fight”! USWA Southern Champion Brian Christopher prepares for his title defense against “Dirty” Dutch Mantel on Monday night by taking on “Nightmare” Danny Davis in an excellent television main event!
