Pringle doing his best to make sense to Kerry what wrestling is about. Kerry doesn’t feel like you should fight your friends. Chris Von Erich has been taking his beating but Matt Borne very tough. Percy lets us know that there will be lumberjacks around the ring.

Connie Chung with breaking news that wrestling is fake. She throws out some stats. Is that Todd Gordon as part of that family? Interview with Ted Turner. This whole segment feels really out of date. Like it would be done in 1984 instead. They show bunch of clips from Norman the Lunatic match. Connie is all over how Sting got injured. El Gigante! Glad to confirm that it was Todd Gordon. That is just great.

[1990-05-19-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler and The Snowman
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Lawler talks about his previous match up against Von Erich in AWA for the Unified championship. Snowman makes an appearance. I don’t know who this guy is. Eddie Marlin is very defensive about Snowman being here. Lawler lets Snowman know the reason he doesn’t get title shots has nothing to do with his skin color. Marlin was aggressive here repeatedly putting his hands on Snowman. This was very captivating to watch. Lot of the stuff has been summed up by previous posts but just really something to watch- 18 replies

Rude really putting in the work here. He’s on the beach running sprints. Again playing up that he has beaten Warrior previously. Rude has another five miles in him to run.

[1990-05-19-WWF-Superstars] Brother Love: Hulk Hogan & Tugboat
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Tugboat’s entrance music is great. I don’t watch current product as much but it seems like the big fat guy is nonexistent in today’s wrestling. I guess just Brodus Clay. Hogan shows up to give Tugboat the rub. Love asks Hogan to show up next week on the Brother Love show to confront Earthquake. Yes! -
Mixing up the tights. First fall to Azteca, Cruz and Atlantis. Dandy starts the second fall. Good idea. Azteca was coming up empty on that flying forearm/headbutt attempts. Dandy with the Northern Lights suplex. Guy is just full of surprises.

[1990-05-18-NWA-Power Hour] Louisville Slugger: Rick Steiner and Teddy Long
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Cornette introduces the Long/Steiner debate. Cornette is not a very biased moderator. I think his stop watch is a bit off. Doom show up to attack Rick. Scott shows up to help his brother. A bit late there brother. -
Match was kind of just going along until Kawada takes off Misawa’s mask which is a cool moment. I like how the fans immediately take up the Misawa chant. Japan has been lacking so far and NJPW almost non existent outside that super card. Match was really nothing outside the unmasking.

[1990-05-13-WWF-Wrestling Challenge] Interview: Ted DiBiase
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Okerlund introduces Virgil before DiBiase. Ted is not happy with Bossman for turning him down previously. Everybody has a price for the Million Dollar Man including Bossman. -
I still don’t recognize Hokuto. The female fans are chanting non stop. Regal suplex look alike to win the first fall. Hotta laying in the kicks. Minami makes the tag but I thought she wiffed. Hotta getting suplexed all over the place. Second fall doesn’t look smooth with the roll up attempt. Third fall ends with another roll up.

Adams eats some hairspray as match starts and Austin pummels him. Austin keeps breaking the count allowing him to beat up Adams on the outside. Austin misses a big splash off the top rope. Announcer mentions that a ringside chair is taking a beating. Might want to put over the wrestlers instead. Jeannie gets involved allowing Austin to win. More hairspary for Adams. Jeannie slaps Adams around. Adams does the worst job off “chasing” after Austin up the aisle.

[1990-05-12-NWA-World Championship Wrestling] Interview: Four Horsemen
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Sid is wearing a tuxedo. His height and weight fluctuates during the interview. Sid again calls out Robocop. Arn referrers to Robocop as R2D2. Flair says if Sting shows up that he will get his leg broken again. -
[1990-05-12-NWA-World Championship Wrestling] Interview: Lex Luger
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Luger is confident he will beat Flair in the cage. He takes his shirt off and poses for the camera. He is all oiled up. Must be something he does like brushing teeth and using deodorant. -
[1990-05-12-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler and Jimmy Valiant
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Lawler says he completely outsmarted Valiant allowing him to punch himself out to the point where he fell asleep in their match. Another stretcher match signed but this time Gossett will be placed in a cage. Lawler goes to interview Valiant’s mother. Dave Brown is very skeptical that was indeed Valiant’s mother. Jimmy shows up and runs off Lawler. Valiant doesn’t like Lawler talking about his mom as she is no longer around. Somber stuff.- 10 replies

[1990-05-12-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler vs Jimmy Valiant (Stretcher)
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Lawler uses some ether to knock out Valiant. It’s a stretcher match but it’s really more of a last man standing match as the ref counts Valiant down. Valiant is put on stretcher after match and Lawler gives him another couple shots. -
Rude cut his hair! He’s looks more serious now. Nice change.

[1990-05-12-WWF-Superstars] Brother Love: Dusty Rhodes & Sapphire
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Dusty says nobody embarrasses him in public. He’s sporting a leather polka dot jacket. Sapphire slaps Brother Love in the face. -
Interpromotional war on Family Feud. WCW beats Glow. Scott totally cleans up on the first round and almost gets the 200 points himself. I'm waiting for Rick to blow it and first answer has me thinking it could but he gets second one easy. The women have a tougher as not the easiest questions. Sting has a strong finish to his questions. Scott doesn't do too well. Something that his hard to do when you have long hair? Go for a walk! Ray Combs really likes feeling up Animal. Fun stuff overall all as got kick out of this.

So we are going 40 discs on this year right?

[1990-05-11-NWA-Power Hour] Interview: Ric Flair & Woman

Solie reminds Flair that the Horsemen will be outside the cage at Capitol Combat. Robocop gets first billing of names Flair calls out. -
[1990-05-11-NWA-Power Hour] Louisville Slugger: Four Horsemen
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Ole is here to reveal his big announcement and it’s Sid as the newest member of the Four Horsemen. Sid calls out Robocop. Of course. -
[1990-05-11-USWA Texas] Kerry Von Erich vs Matt Borne
Kevin Ridge replied to Loss's topic in May 1990
Kerry needs to be separated and calmed down before the match. Borne tries a blind charge but Kerry fights off. Ironclaw is blocked but Von Erich keeps trying and gets it on the stomach. Borne throws a chair in the ring. Kerry briefly thinks about using it but tosses outside. We brawl outside the ring and a car gets used as a weapon. Really cool when you think of the year this happened. Borne gets a two by four to the face. Other wrestlers show up to break things up.- 15 replies
