From the 1/12/1980 studio show. Follow my ongoing Memphis TV listings project at popculturestu.blogspot.com
Jerry Jarrett is announcing that Jerry Lawler has pulled out of his series of piled river matches with Ken Lucas. The promotion is fed up with all the headaches there are in dealing with Lawler. He pulls out of matches and picks "novice opponents" like Paul Ellering. This is illustrated by a video of Jerry Lawler versus Paul Ellering from Jonesboro.
After the footage is show Jarrett continues to complain about Lawler but Paul Ellering comes out deeply offended the promoter has slighted him as a novice. Jarrett apologizes and tries to clarify his remarks.
