The Retro Wrestling Re-View USWA Podcast rolls on with Episode #84, and this one has a little bit of everything — classic Memphis chaos, unforgettable characters, and the long-awaited return of the King! Gene Jackson is joined by Josh Briley and Brian Tramel as they break down this week’s episode of USWA Championship Wrestling, where Jerry Lawler finally steps back into the spotlight after a few weeks away, immediately reasserting control and reminding everyone exactly who runs Memphis (both behind and in front of the camera). On this episode: Jerry Lawler’s triumphant return, confronting Eric Embry and physically dismantling both Carl Stiles and the Texas Ranger The opening match delivers big heat as Dirty White Boy vs. Tom Prichard explodes — capped off by the shocking return of The Dirty White Girl, who launches Miss Texas over the desk A deep discussion on why that opening segment worked and why it mattered The debut of Carl Stiles and why his presentation never quite clicks with fans Eric Embry’s master class heel psychology (“I ain’t got no beef with you, Lawler!”) Jeff Jarrett, Robert Fuller, and the never ending “we used to feud” reminders, EVERY WEEK! The arrival of Ta-Gar, Lord of the Volcano whose left hand is on fire, but he seems cool with it Multi man tag team chaos, "Roughouse" Doug Gilbert get his character over, and Bill Dundee doing things only Bill Dundee can do Real attendance numbers from the Pipkin Building that tell a much darker story about the state of the territory in June 1991 This episode captures a promotion desperately trying to stabilize itself by leaning on Lawler’s star power, throwing gimmicks at the wall, and hoping something sticks. If you love Memphis wrestling history, honest analysis, and laugh out loud fun with the absurdity of it all, this one’s a must listen.
