Cornette explains Gibson's heel turn by pointing out that Tracy Smothers is the reason Ricky Morton got fired, and that the Thugz took the Rock & Rolls' title shot. They take it a step further by saying he carried Morton on his back.

 

"You saw the Rock & Roll Express wrestle -- who got the snot kicked out of him? Ricky Morton. Who came in and cleaned house? Robert Gibson."

 

They declare the Rock & Roll Express dead and Gibson the King of Rock & Roll.

 

Now we go to a Thugz interview and WOWEE that's a black background. It literally looks like they're in space. They do a good promo, but it's just really hard to care about death bed SMW. There is something morbidly fascinating about it though.

Finally a good promo from Cornette, after a long cold spell. Love all the accurate historical nods, from Cornette helping the Rock 'n Rolls at Christmas Chaos to the wink-and-a-nod version of history of the Ricky Morton Role to the talk of the recent developments involving Ricky Morton and the THUGs.

 

The THUGs rebut. It's a black background all right, but it's an upgrade over the black sheet limply hanging in front of some high school gym bleachers. The THUGs have a mystery partner to go against Robert Gibson & the Heavenly Bodies. The hype is on for the very last Smoky Mountain show. It's a moribund company but I'm going to miss it just the same.
