  • Re-View #100: USWA 9/21/91 (Who Wrote the Letter?)
    Apr 22 2026

    On this milestone episode of the Retro Wrestling Re-View USWA Podcast - Gene, Josh, and BT celebrate hitting the century mark while breaking down the September 21, 1991 episode of USWA Championship Wrestling, a show filled with chaos, callbacks, and classic Memphis madness.

    What Goes Down This Week:

    • Dirty White Boy kicks things off in dominant fashion with a brutal reverse lariat finish
    • Jeff Jarrett officially ditches Ronnie P. Gossett (comparing him to a septic tank) and brings in Eddie Marlin—to absolutely ZERO crowd reaction
    • Eric Embry continues to spiral, cutting another intense promo while the Tom Prichard storyline quietly builds in the background
    • Tojo Yamamoto absolutely CRACKS Dutch with the flagpole in one of the stiffest shots we’ve seen on the show
    • Embry follows it up by choking Eddie Marlin with his own tie, turning his face beet red
    • Billy Joe Travis delivers an all-time bad musical performance… then makes up for it by obliterating Chris Frazier with a guitar shot

    Throw in a bullwhip and Jerry Lawler plugging a celebrity softball game with Ernest P. Worrell and you’ve got a perfectly chaotic, "know whatta mean, Vern?"

    Plus… Episode 100 Celebration

    • The guys reflect on 100 episodes of the podcast
    • How the show has grown from bad audio setups to moderately better audio setups
    • Listener feedback, inside jokes, and what keeps this show so damn fun to do every week

    This is Memphis rasslin: Fun. Loud. Sometimes confusing.
    But always entertaining and 100 episodes later… we’re still here for it.

  • Re-View #99: USWA 9/14/91 (CHAOS builds before Episode 100!)
    Apr 15 2026

    Episode #99 might be one of the most frustratingly entertaining episodes we’ve covered because for every great Memphis idea… there’s something that makes you go, “WHY would you do that?!”

    And we go IN on all of it. We break down one of the most chaotic and uneven episodes of USWA TV ever, where incredible angles collide with head scratching decisions.

    You'll get:

    • A deeper look at the Christopher Love / Ronnie P. Gossett feud, including why Gossett might be the most hateable (and divisive) guy on the show
    • The full rant on Bert Prentice attacking Michael St. John and why the follow up makes absolutely no sense
    • Extended discussion on Jerry Lawler no selling the guitar shot and how it completely undercuts the Guitar Lumberjack stipulation
    • More breakdown of the insane studio brawl...who was involved, what worked, and what turned into total chaos
    • Thoughts on Billy Joe Travis’ gimmick, Honey Love’s segments, and why some of this feels like it’s teetering between genius and disaster
