Retro Wrestling Re-View USWA Podcast Ep. 97: (USWA 8/31/91) "Dirty" Dutch evens the odds!

On this episode of the Retro Wrestling Re-View USWA Podcast, Gene Jackson, Josh Briley, and Brian Tramel break down the August 31, 1991 episode featuring a new Unified World Champion, one of the most outrageous promos you’ll ever see, and a show that somehow manages to have both great wrestling AND complete madness at the same time. We kick things off with the shocking title change as the Dragon Master steals the Unified World Championship from Jerry Lawler thanks to some questionable officiating and even more questionable interference. Then… Christopher “Honey” Love delivers an all-timer promo complete with a proposed dress code for the fans on Monday night that might be the most Memphis thing ever put on television. From there: A fantastic TV match between Dr. Tom Prichard and Nightmare Danny Davis that reminds you just how good this roster could be A chaotic Miss Texas vs. Sweet Georgia Brown ringside brawl Dutch Mantell returns and immediately starts roasting his own WCW “Desperado” run while teaming with Lawler Reggie B. Fine continues to be the most unintentionally hilarious man in wrestling Handsome Jimmy Valiant and Sweet Georgia Brown turn Dave Brown’s life into an HR violation nightmare. And yes… an unprotected chair shot from Bill Dundee that sounds like it echoed through three counties Plus, we run down the absolutely STACKED Labor Day Star Wars card featuring 14 matches, 37 wrestlers, along with a TWO RING, TRIPLE CHANCE BATTLE ROYAL. This show had everything. Great wrestling, ridiculous angles, uncomfortable moments, and Memphis insanity at its finest.
