Retro Re-View Episode #12: USWA 3/6/1993 (THE MACHO MAN ARRIVES, DIG IT!)

Play episode
 
The Retro Wrestling Re-View returns to the USWA in March of 1993 this week, as Josh Briley & Richard Mullikin are back along with host Gene Jackson to discuss the March 6th episode as the flippin’ “Macho Man” Randy Savage is here… in the TV-5 Memphis studio for the first time since 1985! And Macho is here to call out the “King” Jerry Lawler, and challenge him for his Unified World Championship in a very fun exchange between two LEGENDS! 

The NEW Southern Heavyweight Champ Jeff Jarrett takes on Reggie B. Fine. Then, Scotty Flamingo makes his USWA debut as he’s coming in “from the WCW” to challenge Jarrett for the Southern belt due to their “open door policy”.  Scotty hits Jarrett with a rap that would make PN News roll over in his grave.. if he wasn’t still alive!  Add to all of that a bizarre “patriotic” video of Jeff Jarrett that the guys have a LOT of fun with. 

If all of that wasn’t a big enough surprise for one episode….PG-13 is here as JC Ice has won the USWA Middleweight Championship! Hear all about that and find out why “Uncle Danny” ain’t happy.  “The King of Rock & Roll” Doug Gilbert is in action against “Dirty” Dutch Mantel, and we find out that his brother Eddie has challenged him to a ‘Loser Leaves Town’ match at the Mid-South Coliseum.  PLUS: Brian Christopher will tell you everything you need to know about his new tag team partner….the BIG BLACK DOG! AND: this episode is guaranteed to feature 99.999% less Bruise Brothers! Check it out!
