Hart Sends Message To Lawler


Memphis -In the main event at the Mid South Coliseum ended with the Colossus of Death and the Dream Machine attacking a downed Jerry Lawler after the match. Sweet Brown Sugar came down to help lawler but the dammage was done. Hart stated he was sending a message that Lawler may be the king but Hart and his boys run things now in Memphis.

The Batten Twins looked good against the Memphis Vice but the victory was short lived. Brad Batten tore his Meniscus in his left knee. Unknown at the time how long he will be inactive or how this will effect the Tag Team Tournament next week.

Nightmares Win Southern Titles


Memphis - The Nightmares survived last night beating Jackie Fargo and Mike Samples for the vacant Southern Tag Team Titles. Ken Wayne hit a flying stump on Mike Samples to end the night.

In other action, the team of Sweet Brown Sugar and Jerry Lawler defeated Colossus of Death and Eddie Gilbert when Colossus was disqualified for tossing referee Jim Trap out of the ring. The match continued almost 4 minutes with a new referee when Trap returned to the ring and called the match. Jimmy Hart called it bull and said this was another example of the favoritism shown to Lawler here in Memphis.

Nightmares Retain Southern Titles



Memphis -Jackie Fargo and Mike Samples put up a valiant effort but were unable to take the Southern Tag titles from the Nightmares. Mike Samples was in control of the match until he attempted a body slam and Danny Davis counted with a small package to get the three count.

Jimmy Hart continues his mind games on Jerry Lawler as Missy Hyatt distracted the referee and Jimmy Hart slipped Eddie Gilbert a pair of brass knuckles who knocked Lawler out and then added injury to insult with a piledriver. Attendents checked on Lawler who was a little groggy but ok.

Hart Gets The Best Of Lawler Again


Memphis - One would think that Jerry Lawler, the King of Memphis Wrestling would get a break, but for the last few weeks Jimmy Hart and his team of Colossus of Death and Eddie Gilbert has found ways of beating Lawler and Sweet Brown Sugar. Last night at the Mid South Coliseum, Lawler could not catch a break, The "special Referee" that Hart brought in would not count any pin fall attempts by Lawler or Sweet Brown Sugar and halted any offence Lawler and Brown got on. With the numbers stacked against them it didn't take long for Gilbert to get the win over Sweet Brown Sugar.

Next week, Memphis Wrestling starts qualifying rounds for the Southern Heavyweight title.
