Loss Posted March 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Not quite sure who Mr. Tennessee is, but he's wearing a red mask and he's upset about something involving The Bullet. They cut to a taped promo sent in from SMW of Jim Cornette and the Bodies. Cornette says the favorite dinner of someone from Alabama is whatever is too slow crossing the highway. He adds that he knows The Bullet is Bob Armstrong, and that something fishy is going on. Cornette says he's sending Mr. Tennessee to USA Wrestling to get to the bottom of this. Cool find.

PeteF3 Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 My burning question from the previous segment is answered--the Russian Warhead is Boris Zhukov. That's a letdown. Mr. Tennessee rants about showing some videotape, as we awkwardly and slowly transfer to an interview with Cornette and the Heavenly Bodies. They're coming after the Bullet. Listening to Mr. Tennessee I'd swear it was Brian Christopher, but apparently he's none other than WCW jobber Larry Santo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedEagle Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Mr. Tennessee intros a promo from the Bodies & Cornette talking about USA Wrestling, saying he'll send Mr. Tennessee to USA Wrestling to take care of Bob Armstrong. Nothing special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 Bullet vs. Cornette is a great running feud that is bleeding over into other promotions. Effective stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Actually, this may be the first instance of an actual in-ring feud between Bullet Bob and Corny being promoted. Unfortunately, this outfit looks way too minor league to know what to do with a feud like this. I could barely understand Mr. Tennessee, and to find out that he was some WCW jobber disappoints me. Actually, he sounded a bit like Tommy Rich, which would have been a hell of a lot more interesting. They actually cut this promo off midway through, as Corny was saying "And then, guys........" I have no idea why they did that, unless Corny was saying something about the Bodies actually coming to USA Wrestling and the powers that were didn't want to advertise something that they may not have been able to deliver (and as far as I know, didn't deliver). A search turns up the fact that this outfit was actually the last gasp of what had been Continental. After a few months, they said that Jerry Jarrett had purchased the promotion and folded it into the USWA, but Papa claimed on Wrestling Classics not to remember this and said that they had no interest in promoting in Alabama and the Gulf Coast.
