NOTE: WWE blocked this video because of the Lawler AWA title change so I had to cut that out. What a bunch of jerks.
USWA Championship Wrestling – 10/6/90 (10/13) - WMC, Evansville & Louisville feeds
Dave & Craig Johnson open the show
Joey Maggs v Sheik Abdul Hussein - Maggs is upset by the loss but Danny Davis comes out to console him.
VTR: Austin Idol - "The kid is hot tonight" by Loverboy
Eddie Marlin interview - Eddie shows off the Unified title belt as they preview Monday's tournament.
VTR: Jerry Lawler v Curt Henning - MSC - Clip of Lawler winning the AWA title in '88
Jerry Lawler interview - Jerry is in a suit and goes into how this tournament came about including showing his title loss to Snowman. Eddie Marlin just buries Snowman for no showing events and accuses him of offering the title belt to a drug dealer.
Dave & Craig run down the first round of this Monday's World Title Tournament
VTR: Jerry Lawler v Terry Funk - Texas Death Match from 1981 - Funk is in Monday's tournament.
Lou Fabiano v Danny Davis - Downtown Bruno joins commentary and hints that he's about to sign a big deal with Sheik Abdul Hussein. Hussein and his unnamed manager come to ringside to watch Fabiano.
Jeff Jarrett interview - Jarrett is the new Southern champion. Eddie Gilbert comes to the desk and says he wants the Southern title today. Jarrett turns him down. Eddie accuses Jeff of being protected by the promotion just like Jerry Lawler. Things get heated as Jeff mentions Eddie's divorce from Missy Hyatt. When he says Gilbert flopped everywhere outside of Memphis, Eddie decks him and busts him open with a shoe. It ends up in a big pull apart and Jeff is Tommy Rich-level bloody. After the break, Dave and Craig are literally mopping blood off the desk with paper towels.
Samurai v Bill Dundee - Sheik Abdul Hussein, with manager in tow, come to ringside and talk with Tojo Yamamoto during the match. Hussein eventually jumps in the ring to double-team Dundee for a DQ.
Bill Dundee interview
Danny Davis & Joey Maggs interview - Dave presents Danny with a check for defeating Doug Gilbert at the house show. Danny tells a story about mentoring Doug in Continental. Doug Gilbert & Sam Bass Lowe confront Davis & Maggs. Doug is putting up $2,500 more of Eddie's money this week.
VTR: Jimmy Valiant - "Son of a gypsy" by Jimmy Valiant
Jerry Lawler interview - Jerry plugs his appearances this week and Monday's tournament
Dave & Craig run down Monday's card
Eddie Gilbert & Dick Slater interview - Very rare appearance of Slater in the Memphis studio.
Jeff Jarrett & Jeff Gaylord v Doug Gilbert & Tony Anthony - Jarrett is unable to go after the fight with Eddie Gilbert so Joey Maggs takes his place. Before Maggs can tag in Jeff returns to the ring and retakes his spot. Jarrett's head is bandaged. Eddie Gilbert is hiding under the ring and grabs Jarrett's leg preventing him from getting back in the ring. Oddly the belts change hands on a count out.
Steve Keirn interview - Jeff Jarrett walks on and apologizes for interrupting. He notes how Eddie Gilbert tried to make a name off the Fabulous Ones and Jerry Lawler but failed. He'll also fail trying to make a name off Jarrett.
Dave & Craig close the show
